[00:00] DanDare, the Adjustable DPI settings are built into the hardware. And it works, just that after a few seconds I get the ill effects. [00:00] my screen got locked [00:00] hi [00:00] im using the lastest version of ubuntu [00:00] magicianlord: Yeah, I've been using it under Openbox, but I'm back in Gnome tonight [00:00] but without apparent reason the amules exit [00:00] *amule [00:00] !hi | fabio [00:00] fabio: Hi!

[00:01] fabio: run it from terminal and post the error(s) given to http://paste.ubuntu.com [00:01] what might be my problem and how can I solve it? when I have harddrive plugged and dvd drive plugged, when I try to install it gives me error: (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system [00:01] ah sudo kill -9 pid worked [00:01] anyone know of a good howto to run dual monitors? [00:01] nikitis, try that USB->PS2 adapter so... not sure if it will work but most like [00:01] but when I take hard drive away and boot only with dvd drive, setup goes like it should go [00:01] fabio amule under wine ? [00:01] anyone know how i can use a custom trash icon i've created? [00:01] sesev, you have to set your BIOS to boot from the cd/dvd rom first [00:01] slidinghorn: it boots [00:02] but it gives that error [00:02] what error? [00:02] (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system [00:02] hello, I've recently come into possession of an Ipod, what's the best app to use under Ubuntu, that wouldn't totally f*** it up? I want to play existing music and load additional music. :) [00:02] then it's booting from the hard drive [00:02] hi [00:02] Hello! is there a way to disable the Keyring password popups? (it is the same with my general password) [00:02] can somebody help me on pwt ??? [00:02] !language | ejv [00:02] ejv: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [00:02] so that hard drive is broken? [00:02] no [00:02] ejv: I think it will just work in Rythombox and Banshee at the moment [00:03] !ipod [00:03] For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod [00:03] um... i used asterisks sebsebseb lol [00:03] !best | ejv \ [00:03] ejv \: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task.

[00:03] ejv: still counts as swearing [00:03] jesus christ you guys love your commands [00:03] ejv: here [00:03] ok thx [00:03] it's IDE hard drive, and my jumper settings are: dvd Master, hdd slave [00:03] i'll start clicking [00:03] if it boots from the dvd with the hdd unplugged, then more likely the order to boot is not set in the bios, or if it but you are not pressing a key to boot from dvd/cd when it prompts, and it defaults to booting from hdd. [00:03] ok sesev [00:03] it goes to that menu [00:03] set the hdd to master, dvd to slave [00:03] hi, is there a wa [00:03] ejv: also what you just said, might offend some religious people, so thats something to think about [00:03] ejv -- it helps to give people frequently requested info quickly [00:03] where you can choose if to try live cd or install ubuntu [00:04] oh, so it does boot from the cd. ok [00:04] but it doesn't go further [00:04] oh no im not complaining, too much help is far better than no help [00:04] ;) [00:04] it gives you the error then? [00:04] yep [00:04] live cd [00:04] it starts loading but then comes that error [00:04] is the iso burned properly? [00:04] it's ordered from ubuntu website [00:04] ima give that ipod guide a look through, im deathly afraid of attaching this ipod, and having it re-initialized [00:04] have you tried it on another pc to see if the cd works?

[00:05] and live option works when hdd is'nt plugged [00:06] hi, i was wondering if i can get a basic, stripped down ubuntu. like no services and all, no gui. in the end i am looking for something like fluxbuntu (which looks quite dead to me). i could use debian but buntu is more up-to-date and userfriendly. [00:06] so it goes past the error when the hdd is not plugged in? [00:06] !minimal | Benkinooby [00:06] Benkinooby: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [00:06] magicianlord: that error doesn't come [00:06] it works smoothly without hdd [00:06] open terminal place iso in home folder type md5sum isofilename interminal [00:06] that's an odd problem. it may be the hdd then. [00:06] Benkinooby: actsually Debian Testing is always more up to date than Ubuntu, since Ubuntu gets based on that [00:06] but sesev, try setting hte jumpers [00:06] !debian | Benkinooby [00:06] Benkinooby: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/installation-guide/i386/what-is-debian.html - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! [00:06] the hdd should be master and cd slave [00:06] Using gparted on a livecd, is it possible to resize a ext4 partition (My system partition) on a disk without erasing the partition? I still want to keep the data, but I want to make the partition smaller to make room for another Linux OS [00:07] Samual: yes [00:07] has anyone ever setup a dual monitor system using a ati card and a nvidia card? [00:07] magicianlord, K thanks.. Just wanted to make sure before I proceed with doing it. [00:07] DanDare, hmm I don't even have a PS/2 port available on my machine, it only came with a keyboard port [00:07] Wamphyri: A portal to hell opened. It was a terrible, terrible shame.

This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. [00:11] Benkinooby: yeah I guess, espeasily when quite a few distros that were Ubuntu based, are based on Debian now instead. theres one with openbox or whatever, can't remember which one now [00:11] hiexpo, you got nailed so darn it if you're not gonna *use* that factoid ;-) [00:11] crunchbang [00:12] !test [00:12] hrm? [00:12] actually, crunchbang inspired me to explore a similar set up with other distros. [00:12] slidinghorn, yep \ [00:12] Benkinooby: yeah bingo thanks magicianlord, yeah crunchbang [00:12] hiexpo: so between the point that slidinghorn made his last comment and i did the lol there was alot of extra communication to not be able to figure out why i put lol? [00:12] and i replicated crunchbang on 10.04 as well [00:12] it works nicely [00:12] !kernel [00:12] The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages [00:13] I am getting pretty sick of traditional Desktop OS's they're stale and old. We need some innovation and new way of doing things. [00:13] Wamphyri, - just making a point sorry [00:13] Benkinooby: magicianlord Also Mint is actsauly is working on a version based on Debian as well, nothing for the public to try just yet though, and main version will still be based on Ubuntu for now. Getting a little off topic here though. [00:13] DanltheManl: what did you have in mind? i use openbox [00:13] hiexpo: far enough :) [00:13] DanltheManl: Buy an iPod?

[00:16] magicianlord: I swiched those jumpers, but now that computer doesnt boot :-( [00:16] people mistake me 4 a nice guy i am not nice i amfriendly [00:16] In TestDisk I am trying to make an Image.dd of my windoze partition and I want to put it into a hard drive.

[00:16] Benkinooby: I think the Debian community will be alright, as long as not asking them really basic questions. [00:16] PLease stay on topic here [00:17] magicianlord: that hdd does have nothing in it [00:17] is it me or is linux-gamers.net down?

[00:28] DanltheManl: yea I'm not so sure I want to risk this... [00:28] i had simular problem with avi files had to uninstall pulse and reinstall fixed it for me but your dealing with youtube [00:28] could be flash related [00:28] Guest6025: On xfce, just use 'xfwm4 --replace' and save your session [00:28] ejv: it shouldn't be too bad, you can always restore your iPod nano in iTunes fairly easily. [00:28] I'm able to use my Xbox 360 controller's mic in Windows, can I do the same in Linux? [00:29] soreau, im new to ubuntu, installed it yesterday, How do I save the session? [00:29] Adola: sure, find a driver. [00:29] thune3: Found it, thank you. [00:29] DanltheManl: yea but am I at risk of losing the music already on it? [00:29] DanltheManl: I presume someone has written a 360 controller driver for Linux? [00:29] _jesse: right, thanks -- trojan_spike, not intending to [00:29] Adola: you can test it, download the Live CD [00:29] ejv: yeah it would resync the music from banshee and delete the stuff on the iPod [00:30] that sounds bad [00:30] I don't have a backup [00:30] IdleOne: I am actually on 10.04 [00:30] ejv: You should always backup :P [00:30] can any one help [00:30] Guest6025: it's in xfce-menu somewhere IIRC. Also close all other windows before saving your session since it will restart any currently running programs after you relogin [00:30] ok how do I back it up? :) [00:30] hmmmm [00:30] how does everyone like 10.04 ubuntu? [00:31] Adola: so plug it in and see if it works [00:31] IdleOne: I did, and it's not. [00:31] terrible, i wish i woulda used slackware kurt_ ;) [00:31] has anyone had any problems yet with it? i suppose so. [00:31] ejv: I'm not sure, but maybe if you look at the iPod in the linux filesystem, you might be able to find your music files [00:31] ejv: Slackware is for people who know how to use Desktop Linux poperly [00:31] ejv: Then you could copy them to the computer [00:32] Soreau, thanks for the quick response and help, did the trick === jeisson is now known as AwakE [00:32] i think rythmbox is able to read i-pod files??

But not sure how to get the mic on it to work :/ [00:34] ejv: the saying it was sarcastic I mean [00:34] sebsebseb: he asked if people were having problems... ;) [00:34] ha ok, now im just confused [00:34] * ejv claps [00:35] ejv: Yeah you coudl backup through iTunes.

[00:40] sebsebseb do ubuntu 10.04 [00:40] juboba: ok [00:40] ejv: I think both can do the sync, but Banshee will useaully be better out of the two or something for that, I think [00:40] ubuntu ftw :) [00:41] macfire: Install Ubuntu 10.04? [00:41] also im getting this in rhthym box when I try to play: "the stream is encrypted and decryption is not supported" [00:41] * ejv facepalms [00:41] sebi_` yes [00:41] sebsebseb yes [00:42] ejv: I probably can't help much since I don't have an Ipod, and happy enough with standard old fashioned portable CD players, however if I was going to buy something more modern for portable music, I would get something from Cowon I guess :) since they also support open music formats such as OGG and Flac [00:42] sebsebseb I'm having problems with X's live CD, the picture gets all distorted [00:42] * hiexpo thimgs dif here the bkslash me don't work here [00:42] ejv: well yeah that would be the main reason, the open format support :) [00:42] oops now it did [00:42] macfire: X's Live CD? [00:42] sebsebseb my hardware is nvidia 7150m nforce 630m [00:42] <[-DvL-]> so none of you ever reassign audio ports? [00:42] macfire: I think what your trying to say is that xorg isn't working properly on the Ubuntu Live CD ? [00:42] sebsebseb yes [00:43] sebsebseb: yea those Cowon players are nice [00:43] sebsebseb do you watch a movie with the problem? [00:43] ejv: yeah so I have read :) [00:43] i had no problem with the live cd [00:43] sebsebseb 34s? [00:43] macfire: a Live CD is meant to be used to try Ubuntu from CD, and then install if hardware works properly [00:43] how about this [00:44] slayer [00:44] what if I completely hosed the iPod, can I load new mp3s without this apple encryption/decryption nonsense? [00:44] exactly | sebsebseb [00:44] sebsebseb but i dont see, because the pictures gets all distorted === user is now known as whome [00:44] and just never return to Itunes ever? [00:44] macfire: ok [00:44] macfire: two possible reasons for that. 1. your CD is bad, since for example a bad ISO. 2. your graphics card isn't supported [00:45] sebsebseb in old version they are suported [00:45] macfire: it could be some other reason why you got the problem, but those two are the most likely reasons as to why [00:45] macfire: ok which old version? [00:45] macfire: and which card? [00:45] sebsebseb karmic [00:45] or koala [00:45] i dont know [00:45] 9.04 [00:45] karmic is mroe stable [00:45] macfire: ok Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Kaola [00:45] likes what magicianlord said :) [00:46] * sebsebseb doesn't like 10.04 that much for various reasons, so now thinks 9.10 is better [00:46] is it the theme? [00:46] sebsebseb this problem only this version, 10.04 [00:46] magicianlord: more to it then just that, but that would be off topic to go on about in here [00:46] sebsebseb watch the movie, are 34 seconds http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ki-h0GOrcE [00:46] ok, sebsebseb. i also prefer 9.10 [00:47] * hiexpo agrees with sebsebseb likes 9.10 also better [00:47] also when it comes to releases that are supported still. 9.04 is my favourite :) sadly support will run out at the end of October, just like it was said when 8.10 ran out of support on 30th April 2010. anyway right back to support then [00:48] macfire: ok i'll look at the video [00:50] macfire: ok looks odd, is that your own video by the way? [00:51] macfire: Have you still got the ISO for 10.04? [00:51] yes [00:52] magicianlord: was that a reply to the question? I was messaging macfire [00:52] oh ok. [00:52] magicianlord: however you had some problem with 10.04 as well, didn't you? [00:53] only with the design and stability [00:53] heyyyyyyyyyyyyyy [00:53] magicianlord: oh more details please :) what did you mean by that [00:53] not a specific problem. i've resolved anything i needed to by now [00:53] what''s this room.???????????

[00:55] my conection is bad [00:55] how can I uninstall it and compile it again? apt-get remove/purge not working [00:55] lobito: theres some guides out. and i even recall some scripts that automate teh compuiling of ffmpeg [00:55] oh well i totally need some support..... [00:55] student: right so ask a question [00:55] Is there any way to check what options were loaded with snd-hda-intel? I need to get the sound working on my Gentoo install, and I would like to copy what Ubuntu did with it to get it working. [00:56] lobito: if you installed from source. You use the 'sudo make uninstall' sort of command to remove it [00:56] again [00:56] lobito: unless you made a .deb package [00:56] ping timeout [00:56] macfire: Have you still got the 10.04 ISO? [00:56] did she go? [00:56] wrong channel.. [00:56] sebsebseb yes [00:56] macfire: ok check the ISO [00:57] !md5sum | macfire [00:57] macfire: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [00:57] lobito: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/04/script-to-automatically-download-and.html [00:57] !hashes [00:57] See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes for the md5sums of Ubuntu discs.

[00:59] does virtualbox reconize usb? [00:59] lobito: it might reinstall over it.. i dont know. if you installeed from source. and ./cconfigure, make, make install.. use 'make uninstall' in the source tree. [00:59] Wamphyri: the one from the vbox homepage can. not the one in the repos [00:59] Wamphyri: not the open source version in the repo, but the other version from website/server does. and theres a guide for setting up usb in Virtualbox on the Ubuntu site [00:59] sweet thank you [00:59] Wamphyri: your welcome [01:00] Hey, folks. I'm a recent convert to Ubuntu and am attempting to get grub2 to accept my wundows 7 installation. I've done this: http://erickoo.wordpress.com/2009/06/14/how-to-add-vista-partition-to-grub-2-ubuntu-9-10-karmic-koala/ to no avail, and have tried many derivatives of it. When updating grub, it hangs on "Adding Windows" and never proceeds to "Done." I am using 2 separate disks rather than simply 2 partitions like in the [01:00] example at the website. Any ideas? [01:00] macfire: If you press a key early in the boot of the LiveCD do you get a boot menu? [01:00] sebsebseb md5 correct [01:00] macfire: maybe you burnt the CD a bit to fast, so bad CD [01:01] Hey!

There is no /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base file on Ubuntu 10.04 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224797 [01:01] macfire: anyway nothing wrong with going back to 9.10. Newer is not always better!

[01:03] is there a command to list all packages that exists in a certain repository that you have? [01:03] macfire: uh [01:03] gruib? [01:03] macfire: you installed Wubi?

[01:23] Hi [01:24] What isn't ubuntu? [01:24] Guest87910: puppy [01:24] Jordan_U, thanks :) [01:24] I am wondering im supposed to see another computer connected to my router or if they ever where? Isnt there a program in the channel this? [01:24] opty: You're welcome. [01:24] but even that has a ubuntu version now... [01:24] zus: right click - add to launcher [01:24] for this? [01:24] Puppy linux? [01:25] Guest87910: Windows isnt ubuntu (chanops don't ban me for saying that plz) [01:25] never mind, thats ubuntu now too :) [01:25] Jordan_U, would that stuff work if i just wanted to transfer my ubuntu to the harddisk? [01:25] opty: Yes. [01:25] Guest87910: there are still dozens of other linux distro's that are not ubuntu [01:25] most are highly specialized [01:26] mj8741, and say i want to remove it at a later date? [01:26] and not for the average user coming in from windoze [01:26] Ubuntu is not hard to learn [01:26] zus: right click - remove from panel [01:26] Jordan_U, do i need to install gparted just to resize the fs? [01:26] Guest87910, Ubuntu is the only thing that is Ubuntu [01:27] Jordan_U, or can i just install lvpm and do a resize? [01:27] mj8741, ok i did as ya said i dont see the icon..... [01:27] mj8741, never mind [01:27] opty: You'll need to boot from a liveCD/USB to do the resize. [01:28] mj8741, was in the wrong place, or rather not where i was expecting it to have been at. [01:29] Jordan_U, good point [01:29] is there a more up to date version of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CustomRestrictedModules ? linux-restricted-modules-common no longer exists in lucid [01:29] zus: you can right click and move - you should lock for future though [01:31] mj8741, i thought when youre connected an icon should appear and disappears when logged out [01:31] Does ubuntu support distro upgrades from within the package manager without using cds? [01:31] jimi_, Yes [01:31] has anyone got a nvidia gx 220 card? [01:31] opty: Wow, reading that page it appears that the standard way to do it does not require a LiveCD/USB, it creates a second (larger or smaller as you choose) copy of the virtual disk file then you reboot from the new resized file. [01:31] i dont have any hdmi audio :( [01:31] jimi_, But only from one version to the next. (e.g. you can't upgrade directly from 7.04 to 9.10) because you have to skip 7.10, 8.04 and 8.10 [01:31] i have an exe file that is "not marked as executable". does anyone have a link to a page on how to fix this so i can open it? [01:32] opty: I am fairly sure that you can do it faster with a LiveCD/USB though as you wouldn't need to copy all of the data. [01:32] sheena1, You cannot open .exe files in linux because they are code that has been compiled for windows. [01:32] zus: should not go away when reboot or logout [01:32] edbian, oh ok, can you point me at documentation for how to do that? [01:32] Jordan_U, indeed [01:32] ola pesoal [01:32] edbian: i know. im using wine, and its giving me a security-type error. is it a wine thing? [01:32] sheena1, To mark a file executable though you right click it and select properties and look at the permissions tab [01:32] !br | pablosk8 [01:32] pablosk8: Entre em #ubuntu-br usando /join #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. [01:33] jimi_, Open the upgrade manager. What version are you on? [01:33] jimi_, I can just tell you. It's easier :) [01:33] edbian: thanks so much! that was real easy. i knew it had to be something simple. [01:33] edbian, i am on 9.10 [01:33] sheena1, Yep! No worries [01:33] so im using Ubuntu-supplied Linux modules for version 2.6.32-22-generic ALSA snapshots from a ubuntu PPA dev [01:33] it shows up in sound as HDMI [01:33] jimi_, Did you open the update manager in system->admin ?? Does it show a distribution upgrade available? [01:33] but no sould [01:34] mj8741, i dont need this icon if i get the same thing from the me menu...except when i c;lick on the me menu i have no icon letting me know if im connected or not. [01:34] edbian: Seriously, thank you for being here and offering support. I'd stick around to help others, but I'm pretty useless still. so thank you, tahnk you thank you! i love the ubuntu community [01:34] edbian, ah ok, to 10.4 yes ty [01:34] anyone build a custom kernel and figure out how to rebuild restricted modules? [01:34] sheena1, ha ha. I'm glad to help :) It's fun [01:34] opty: Basically the way that I would do it would be to append as many GB of zeros to the file as you want using dd (*very* carefully, as a small mistake could whipe out all your data) then use ntfsresize. [01:35] sheena1, I was once too useless to help. It just takes time and practice with linux. [01:35] jimi_, No problem! Glad I could help. Be warned. It will take about 6 hours to download and upgrade the system. [01:35] 6 hours? [01:35] damn what are you on dial up? [01:35] edbian, can i use it while its upgrading? [01:35] jimi_, Yep [01:35] ROFL, i'm using dialup [01:35] nice [01:36] jimi_, Linux is great like that! :) [01:36] Does anyone know of any channels that discuss news about malware, securty etc.? [01:36] oh damn im sorry dial up sucks [01:36] no it isn't [01:36] edbian: i've been using ubuntu for 2 full years now. still learning all the time, and i can do real basic stuff on my own, but occasionally something simple evades me! [01:36] i havent used dial up in a long time [01:36] it's awesome to host a personal website, http://www.littlebearz.com lol [01:36] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMLnDuzgkjo [01:36] littlebear, thats not dialup :P [01:36] sheena1, Glad to hear it. Isn't Ubuntu great? I encourage you to keep tinkering and I'm thrilled that I was able to help you :) [01:37] jimi_: it is, my upload speed is 56kb/s [01:37] anyone know *anything* about how restricted kernel modules work in 10.04? [01:37] is it like download over coaxle, upload over phone line, littlebear ? === ircd is now known as samferry [01:38] kmudrick, They work just like any other module. They're restricted simply because they're proprietary. It's just a name, not really a description of the module. [01:38] hi guys can everybody help me?! i have an thinkpad sl510 with a graphic card 'Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD' my problem i have graphic bugs on ubuntu 10.04 with gnome, a frind said me that i need a graphic driver but i cant found anything (sorry my english ist terrible) [01:38] jimi_: the isp restricted, it's cable so I assume it's coaxle [01:38] oh ok [01:38] I had 'cable' one time that was downloading over a coaxle, but still used a phone line for uplaods [01:38] in Michigan [01:38] jimi_: technically I get 10Mb/s down and up, but they limit up I think [01:39] arma: What is the problem that you're having? The default drivers should work fine. [01:39] edbian: here's the problem. i built a new custom kernel, with patches to make my trackpad work. but now, my wireless no longer works, and the docs that tell you how to build restricted modules, is not applicable to 10.04 [01:39] edbian: two years ago, i bought a laptop that came with a certain OS. i was completely unimpressed with the "stupid protection" that basically wouldn't let me make my computer as i wanted it. i'd heard of linux cause my mom used it when i was a kid, so i googled "{other os} user linux" and found 3 or 4 sites right away that said ubuntu was THE linux for {os} users. when i first installed it, i clicked something wrong and ended up with a du [01:40] anyone have any suggestions on running ubuntu without a hdd? i can boot from cd but thats crappy :\ [01:40] kmudrick, That I am not able to help you with! I've never built a kernel module. I'm impressed by your ability to build a custom kernel :) [01:40] Once you go Ubuntu you never go back [01:40] MavJac: that's so false [01:40] mav hahahaha [01:40] opty: Can your computer boot from a USB flash drive? [01:40] wgrant, if i see an animation or somthing like this i have for 0,1 secons strips on my desktop [01:40] wait [01:40] wgrant, idk it has no screen lol [01:40] I have run Ubuntu from my PalmPre, External HDD and Jumpdrive [01:40] i know somewhat about kernel [01:40] macjav [01:40] sheena1, This is off topic. Will you pm me? Also you didn't finish that sentence :) [01:40] you can run off of a usb i believe [01:40] wgrant, no primary screen.... its a laptop without the screen :\ it broke [01:40] opty: you can do a normal install to a usb flash druive and have decent performance [01:40] MavJac: oh I'm about to switch to something else [01:41] MavJac: it's slower than other distro, like puppylinux or archlinux, but it's usually targeted for normal users [01:41] wait is ubuntu linux? [01:41] Ubuntu is my first experience with an OS other than windows [01:41] MavJac, I don't think it's much slower than archlinux. It is def slower than puppy but puppy fits entirely in ram! :) [01:41] Aliv3: Ubuntu is a Linux disrtobution. yes. [01:41] guys i'm having a networking issue of some sort. think it has to do with DNS (not sure though). [01:42] here is a screen shot of my current configs [01:42] anybody got a list of webcams supported OOB for 9.04? [01:42] http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/134/shith.png [01:42] edbian: Puppy also has its own share of.. err.. lets just say Quirks. :) [01:42] this is a clean install btw [01:42] and i cant get to any other website other than GOOGLE [01:42] kinda strange [01:42] this might be a silly question BUT, if a many people were to open rythmbox and click on the trance station would we all be listening to the same song? ( always listened to cd never got into online radio and such) [01:43] Dr_Willis, Very true. But slow it isn't! [01:43] opty: I run a laptop without its LCD, too. Can you not flip it to use the external screen in the BIOS? [01:43] Hello, last night I installed kubuntu 10.04 in my Hp pavilion-dv4 machine, everything's working fine except microphone [01:43] <_jesse_> zus: afaik yes, the same song [01:43] <_jesse_> jsut like radio [01:43] i cannot use my inbuilt mice. [01:43] scd [01:43] _jesse_, thanks [01:43] only google? [01:43] Aliv3, yes [01:44] hmm is it a fresh boot or have you loaded before? [01:44] opty: Some (eg. Lenovo) laptops have an option in the BIOS to use the external screen by default. Others (like my Dell) do not, so you have to do it manually if you want it before X starts. [01:44] wgrant, i cant but i can boot from a cd and it will use the ext monitor. [01:44] opty: What model is it? [01:44] Aliv3, fresh install. wiped the whole HD and installed Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop [01:44] mmm sony pcg or something [01:44] its got core 2 duo [01:44] i wanna use it to compile :\ [01:44] Question: About to install Ubuntu, but it's giving a warning about a drive having a sector size of 2048... what's up with that and is it safe to install? === samferry is now known as yerrfmas === ximo is now known as Guest1048 [01:46] * opty brb [01:46] lost: Many utilities (and almost all current BIOSs AFAIK) do not yet work with drives that have a sector size other than 512. [01:46] Hmm. How did he get a drive with that size i wonder. [01:46] ? [01:46] lost: whats on the hard drive right now? [01:47] lost: So there is a chance that your BIOS can't even boot from that drive. [01:47] Jordan_U, the thing is, the installer warned about /dev/sdc having that sector size. Once gparted opened, it doesn't list an sdc. [01:48] Anyone familiar with the new Ubuntu Netbook Remix? [01:48] lost: Can you pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l" ? [01:48] Jordan_U, one sec... [01:48] Jordan_U, could you post the pastebin link real quick? [01:49] I keep getting the following error when trying to install sopcast front end, even though the dependency is installed. The error I'm getting is: Dependency is not satisfiable: ia32-libs|lib32stdc++5" [01:49] hey, I'm in desperate need of help. I recently installed Ubuntu on a computer. It had WinXP functioning, although barely. So I installed ubuntu on an external usb drive. During the install, I think grub installed itself to the internal (winxp) drive. Now I am unable to boot into Windows xp. GRUB will not load it, and if I disconnect my xternal HD, grub won't even let me boot from a (windows restore) cd/ windows xp on the drive. It just says [01:49] "device not found" , then "grub rescue>". I'd like to be able to boot back into windows. The files are all still there. [01:49] I keep getting the following error when trying to install sopcast front end, even though the dependency is installed. The error I'm getting is: Dependency is not satisfiable: ia32-libs|lib32stdc++5" [01:49] !paste | lost [01:49] lost: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic.

[01:52] Maletor : chmod is your firend then [01:52] Jordan_U, Okay, let me try that now. [01:52] bye [01:52] DasEi: Can you be a little more verbose? [01:52] mic is not working in my kubuntu10.04 hp pavilion-dv4 machine [01:52] <_jesse_> zus: no idea, I don't usually use rhythembox [01:52] Jordan_U, whatever sdc is, and I have no idea, that isn't where I'd be installing Ubuntu to. [01:52] I attempted to install the latest package through Ubuntu's Update Manager, and when I went to restart the computer, I kept getting an error saying it couldn't find something /dev and a long string of numbers and letters. [01:52] lost: Can you use the disk in another computer / OS? [01:52] I have a dual boot Windows 7 and Netbook remix [01:52] I've just installed ubuntu 10.04 over an Dell Zino. Everything goes well but sound card doesn't sound. It's conexant high definition smartaudio 221. The system recognize it but no sound. I have look if alsa system have low volume but nope [01:52] Jordan_U, which disc? [01:53] I don't know what sdc is [01:53] is there an channel for rhythmbox [01:53] Maletor: sure, man chmod , chmod +w UserName for writeaccess, -r for read === Aaron5367|detach is now known as Aaron5367 [01:53] <_jesse_> zus: doubt it, just check the docs [01:54] thanks [01:54] lost: If you're not installing to sdc then you can probably safely ignore any warnings, but I'm curious what sdc is. Do you have more than one internal drive? Any external drives? Any RAID controllers? [01:54] Maletor : -R for effect on subdirs, too [01:55] DasEi: http://pastie.org/1040202 [01:55] I am using the 2.6.32-21, since it's the usable one. [01:56] Should I just delete the 2.6.32-23 images so I don't bother using them as a temporary fix until I can track down what's breaking it? [01:56] AutumnAi: you might want to repeat your question every few minutes or post it on the forums [01:56] Jordan_U, I doubt it. This is my friend's computer... bought at Best Buy, completely stock. [01:56] opij: Sorry about that. I'm used to slower-moving IRC channels. [01:56] AutumnAi: no problem. im not an op anyway. [01:57] can anybody tell me how long will be to upgrade 9.1 unbutu to 10.4 ??? 1mps [01:57] Maletor : user guest already exists ? [01:57] bjegovic: the update process should actually tell you [01:57] bjegovic, depends on your system & your internet connection [01:57] no :S [01:57] Is there a known issue with 2.6.32-23 and Ubuntu netbook remix? [01:57] DasEi: But ls ~/Documents still shows all my docs... How do I prevent it from.-- yes user guest exists [01:57] internet connection 1 mps [01:57] bjegovic, You have to download ~ 600Mbs and then install takes about 40 minutes [01:57] bjegovic: it basically has to redownload everything on a cd. so thats 700+mb - and update any extras that may be installed.. so its hard to tell [01:58] ok, so long XD [01:58] DasEi: I just want guest to view Music that's it [01:58] a upgrade may actually take lonter then an install.. [01:58] Jordan_U, I'm about to run the command, will it remove grub in the non-checked locations? I think the issue is that Window's bootloader got killed/over written by grub. [01:58] bjegovic: it's probably faster to reinstall, if you are willing to do that [01:58] ok, i will be on 9.1 [01:58] is 10 much better ? [01:58] Maletor: guest will see the files, but can make them unreadable by -r [01:59] I keep getting the following error when trying to install sopcast front end, even though the dependency is installed. The error I'm getting is: Dependency is not satisfiable: ia32-libs|lib32stdc++5" [01:59] does anyone know if asterisk + freepbx can be installed on a ubuntu 10.04 laptop or do would you need a os that is like a server edition [01:59] avi: Once you're done with "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" you can restore a microsoft style MBR that will just boot windows with "sudo apt-get install mbr" then "sudo install-mbr /dev/sdX" (where sdX is something like "sda" *not* a partition like "sda1") [01:59] king11: ive seen very few things that 'require' a server install/edition. In fact - i cant think of a single one.. [01:59] it tell me to this will take 56 min xD [01:59] too long [02:00] DasEi: But I can't just chown -r ~/* ... Then chown +r Music. I dont' think I'm understanding something. [02:00] bjegovic: a whole hr! :) Egads... [02:00] i must take drogs [02:00] bjegovic: yeah, you won't be playing counter strike for an hour.. [02:00] dr_willis: cool thanks that means it will work on my laptop without me having to do it through virtualbox and running cent os [02:00] king11: i cant imagine why it wouldent work. [02:00] i now must sleep, in my country now is 4 am [02:00] Hmm.. let it upgrade while you sleep? [02:01] is there a way to try to change alsa for pulse to try to see if this fix the sound problem? [02:01] bjegovic, clean installs are well, cleaner, save the files you need on a disc and do a clean install, I used to do one every 6 months whien using ubuntu. [02:01] jeffto: depends on the program and the problem. [02:01] i have bipolar connected with my sleeping i cant sleep [02:01] is anyone familiur with virtualbox? [02:01] Maletor: sudo chown -R -r guest ~/* [02:01] Wamphyri: lots of people use it. it also has some very well done docs. [02:02] edbian, it says that support for a lot of my packages has ended, like bluetoth, etc [02:02] Wamphyri: and lots of wiki/guides [02:02] Maletor: sudo chmod -R -r guest ~/* , darn [02:02] i have now installed ubuntu 9.1 and it takes about hour... [02:02] half hour* [02:02] DasEi: what? will that make it only applicable to guest? [02:02] I am having problems running Ubuntu 10.04 on a sony VAIO z1290X (http://goo.gl/YYBp) When I attempt to boot into the conputer all i see is the flashing cursor and I never see the pretty loading screen. Any ideas? [02:02] and now i must wait hour [02:02] Wamphyri, what would you like to know about it? [02:02] ibnarrashid: yeah, you just have to install the #!$-load of packages again :) [02:02] jimi_, Be more specific. How is this a problem for you? What says that packages are no longer supported? [02:02] Dr_Willis: well, the sound card is detected but doesn't sound. So I think maybe with pulse this can work [02:02] can 10.4 be on 512 mb of ram ???? [02:02] Jordan_U, Hey, i'm on that computer now. I ran the command, I get " The following Linux command line was extracted from /etc/default/grub or the `kopt' parameter in GRUB Legacy's menu.lst. Please verify that it is correct, and modify it if necessary. " and then a text box reading "Linux command line:" [02:03] Maletor: you will remove read access to guest with that [02:03] Dr_Willis: i'll agree with that setting up the usb to my ppc can connect to xp was simple, but my eyes are getting sore (old age) and was just wondering how to copy files back and forth between the 2 [02:03] edbian, the upgrade manager. [02:03] I cannot use the newest update (2.6.32-23) on my netbook. It keeps pushing me down into shell, and I cannot do anything with it. [02:03] jeffto: pulse is used by default in ubuntu. [02:03] jimi_, So you can't upgrade or? What? [02:03] can 10.4 be on 512 mb of ram ???? [02:03] avi2: It's normal for that to be blank, just keep the defaults for all but the install_devices question. [02:03] edbian, i can upgrade, but i need bluetooth support [02:03] bjegovic: yes, though not nice [02:03] Dr_Willis: so I can disable and try to use alsa directly? [02:04] raisdead: sounds like a problem with the X server, is it configured correctly? [02:04] what mean thought not nice? i dont understand eng very well [02:04] jimi_, Well bluetooth is supported in the newer version of Ubuntu. I can promise that. I think it might be referring to the packages in your system right now? I'm not really sure. [02:04] Wamphyri: between a vbox vm. and the host os? you can treat the 2 as 2 seperate machines and use whatever services you want. samba, nfs. scp, and so on.,. OR you can install the 'guest addations' in the guest OS. and use the special VirtualboxShare feature. [02:04] bjegovic: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LowMemorySystems [02:04] Who here uses bluetooth on Ubuntu 10.04?? [02:04] jeffto: many programs have a setting to use alsa directly. vlc, and mplayer can. === dgtl|screen is now known as dgtlchlk [02:04] Dr_Willis: thank you very much :) i'm off to the land of bleeding eyes to read about VirtualbShare lol [02:05] Hmm... trying to install Ubuntu 10.04, but while resizing the Windows partition, it's been at 0% for 5 minutes. That an issue? [02:05] Wamphyri: theres a lot of good info in the Vbox docs at its homepage. it even has a PDf manual i recall [02:05] Jordan_U, Here's a screenshot of that screen. http://i.imgur.com/VF1ck.png Should I just leave it blank and hit return? [02:05] lost: how big a HD is it resizeing? [02:05] i will install xfce, its faster [02:05] avi2: Yes [02:05] Dr_Willis: thanks again :) [02:05] bjegovic: or icewm even [02:05] Dr_Willis, 160gb [02:05] I am having problems running Ubuntu 10.04 on a sony VAIO z1290X (http://goo.gl/YYBp) When I attempt to boot into the conputer all i see is the flashing cursor and I never see the pretty loading screen. Any ideas? [02:06] lost: 5 minutes may not mean anything, I have had it stall for upto 15 [02:06] lost: I normally let windows do the resizeing. it seems to be much faster at the job. [02:06] so i dont need to install ubuntu 10 ??? [02:06] raisdead: Do you have more than one hard drive? [02:06] raisdead: raisdead: sounds like a problem with the X server, is it configured correctly? [02:06] !who | bjegovic [02:06] bjegovic: depends on whaart you want to do. [02:06] bjegovic: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [02:06] Dr_Willis, ibnarrashid, alright... just checking. Thanks. [02:06] raisdead: I think I have the same issue with a Toshiba NB205 [02:06] Yes I do [02:06] DasEi: but what about teh dotfiles. THis doesn't seem correct. [02:07] Dr_Willis: I'm going to try something, seems it's hardware problem related to the sound output [02:07] thanks :) [02:07] Maletor: dotfiles are attributed hidden [02:07] doesn't mean guest can't read them ... and write them [02:07] Maletor: right [02:08] Maletor: this is set by read/write attribs [02:08] does anyone know of a advanced 'tree' command or tool/program that can create HTML pages with directory structures that can be opened and closed. I know the tree command can do HTML pages, but i cant make it create a directory structure that i can brows (eg. open and close folders, some sort of javascript stuff) [02:08] Jordan_U, Okay, there was another window about silent boot or something, i just hit enter. Now i'm at that GRUB install devices window. The screenshot linked is the defaults. It seems to be what you described to me, should I just hit enter? (sda is internal, sdb is external) [02:08] Jordan_U, http://i.imgur.com/fNFsW.png [02:08] Maletor: you have several ways to regulate permissions : file wise, owner-wise, group-wise [02:09] DasEi: well none of those work fo rme [02:09] !pm | raisdead [02:09] raisdead: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. [02:09] Dr_Willis, I wasn't aware that Windows even had a partitioning tool... [02:09] Dr_Willis, or do you mean during a Windows installation? [02:10] schnitzel: how about this? http://www.zzee.com/ahl.inf/Javascript-directory-tree.html [02:10] avi2: Uncheck /dev/sda (the internal) and check /dev/sdb (the external) [02:10] Maletor: if you did a adduser, guest shall have his own home now, just remove all other access then and put any files in there they are allowed to read or alter [02:10] Jordan_U, Oh, I'm an idiot. I would've missed that. okay, done. [02:10] raisdead: Have you tried changing the boot order? [02:11] oo, thanks Kaspi [02:11] avi: Once you're done with "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" you can restore a microsoft style MBR that will just boot windows with "sudo apt-get install mbr" then "sudo install-mbr /dev/sdX" (where sdX is something like "sda" *not* a partition like "sda1") [02:11] DasEi: but if i did that, then I would create an ln -s to /home/maletor/Music which SSH follows [02:11] Jordan_U: In my bios. Yes I have. [02:11] Maletor: y [02:11] avi: So in your case it would be "sudo install-mbr /dev/sda" === Aaron5367 is now known as Aaron5367|detach [02:11] schnitzel: did you know it's the first google result for "javascript directory tree" ? [02:11] DasEi: so that doesn't work either [02:11] hi [02:12] Dr_Willis, Jordan_U: Interesting note... the partitioner was sitting at 0% for about 10 minutes and suddenly it's done. Never progress... possible gparted bug? [02:12] Jordan_U, Okay, excellent. It output installation finished, no errors reported, then it listed all of my partitions, and it found the WinXP one. What's next? (thanks for the help by the way, lifesaver!) [02:12] Kaspi, heh, guessed so :D [02:12] Maletor: why not ? use ssh to alow access only on that homefolder [02:12] raisdead: Can you run boot info script as explained here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and pastebin the output? [02:13] avi2: You're done :) [02:13] what media player can handle 1080p mkvs [02:13] hey guys... when I installed lucid and the nvidia_current driver firefox bookmarks scroll about one bookmark every 2 seconds...painfully slow :) any solutions [02:13] DasEi: because chroot locking doesn't work. it follows symlinks [02:13] schnitzel: wouldnt be faster using google then? before asking.. [02:13] Jordan_U, Woah. Didn't you mention I needed to install mbr back onto it or something? [02:14] avi2: I thought you meant that the install-mbr command had finished. Yes, you still need to do that. [02:14] Maletor : chroot ? you can make ssh to allow user guest only access to it's homefolder [02:14] avi2: "sudo apt-get install mbr && sudo install-mbr /dev/sda" [02:14] Kaspi, I figured google would give me results, but some might be better than others and i'd need to test a few, after all, human advice is always better than a computer [02:14] DasEi: that's awesome! please tell me how [02:15] DasEi: that's what i'm talking about: it's a root lock [02:15] Maletor: /etc/ssh/sshd_config [02:15] DasEi: but it won't work because it follows symlinks [02:15] i would have to mount [02:16] which is a pain [02:16] Jordan_U, Okay, I ran both commands. the second one didn't seem to output anything, but I suppose that's because all went well. Restart and cross fingers time? === gewt is now known as l33td00d [02:16] avi2: Yes. === l33td00d is now known as gewt [02:16] kthomas from fukuoka? [02:16] Maletor: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=915985 [02:17] Jordan_U, Okay! I'll be switching back to avi now. I'll report in 45 seconds if all is well! [02:17] DasEi: it won't work; i've tried it [02:18] i would chroot /home/guest then create teh symlink in there [02:18] Jordan_U, WAHOOO!!! IT WORKED FLAWLESSLY. YOU SIR, ARE MY HERO! THANKS SO MUCH! [02:18] Maletor: what does not work in it ? [02:18] avi: You're welcome :) [02:18] which ssh would follow and then it would fail because then we are right back where we started [02:18] might as well chroot /home/maletor [02:20] wow this is elusive, can't find the file sharing... [02:20] hi. my capture device is always going to be deactivated after restarting my system. is there a chance to fix this to "always on"? i dont want to add after every restart a "amixer sset Capture cap" into the shell [02:21] DasEi: is this making sense? [02:21] Maletor: what does not work in it ? [02:22] DasEi: the fact that guest can still see everything in ~ [02:22] barrrrt: put this command to /etc/rc.local or maybe to try different audio mixer. maybe someofthem are trying to save it somewhere. [02:23] Maletor : you can build a jail for ssh , and no read access, nor write will be possible ,just follow the given link [02:23] oblu: i did put the command into the rc.local file... i also made it executable with chmod +x, but it doesnt work.. is it possible, that rc.local is executed before the gdm start? or something else that sets it back to "not active"? [02:23] Maletor : http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-linux-unix-rssh-chroot-jail-setup.html [02:24] using virtualbox, how do you share a folder between the host and guest? host being ubuntu and guest being xp [02:24] anyone attempted resizeing ext4 partion [02:24] i have about 90gigs of unalllocated space id like to use [02:24] barrrrt: apparently something overrides this setting in gui :) [02:24] Wamphyri: #vbox ;; install additions and lookup FAq on VB-homepage [02:25] oblu: do u have an idea how i can check what exactly occurs my problem? [02:25] DasEi: thanks for the channel, i already have additions installed.. [02:25] Alazair: use gparted, is the unallocated next to / ? [02:25] barrrrt: you can ofcourse create a different startup script with S99999 [02:26] Wamphyri: it's in the FAQ of vbox-homepage, easy to find [02:26] barrrrt: and unfortunately i dont know ubuntu very well :( [02:26] tried wouldnt let me resize it [02:26] barrrrt: so my support ends here. [02:26] Alazair: you have to do from live cd or other sys (mussn't be mounted and also alter fstab afterwards [02:26] !blkid [02:26] To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) [02:27] oblu: but u did mean the /etc/rc.local file, right? and i just had to add the amixer command BEFORE the exit 0.. right? [02:27] Wamphyri: still havent read the docs yet? :) [02:27] Alazair: could you do a patie of : sudo fdisk -l ? [02:27] pastie* [02:27] oblu: that is just a question to be sure, that i didnt make a stupid mistake.. i just use linux for 2 days now [02:27] barrrrt: sure, but you still can create your own startup script. [02:27] Wamphyri: or set up ssh and use ssh or winscp on the other os. as if the 2 were different machines on teh same lan. [02:28] barrrrt: which will be initated after the gdm or something starts .. [02:28] Dr_Willis: i did ready the docs, shows you howto setup the share on the host, but nothing about the guest [02:28] barrrrt: but you should definitely check the gui :) its gonna be somewhere hidden.. [02:28] ready/read [02:28] Wamphyri: it mentions how to do it for different OS's on teh guest. You HAVE to install teh guest addations on teh guest os. [02:29] dose off the record work here on irc?

[02:29] Dr_Willis: done did that [02:30] ok thanks [02:30] oblu: thx for ur help [02:30] Alazair: think you get by ? [02:30] barrrrt: cool, didn't really know about this 'startup' thing ;) [02:30] Wamphyri: you dont have to use the guest addations/special vbox sjhare. You can treat the Guest OS as if it was just another machine on a LAN and use samba, or ssh, or whatever you want [02:31] hi [02:31] oblu: im not sure if this will help me :) but if u want to have a short wiki page about it, ill give u a link [02:31] I opted out of encrypting my home folder when I installed, and now I've changed my mind. how do I set it to encrypt now? [02:31] guess its ssh then lol [02:31] @ DasEi sorry missed what you said [02:32] Alazair: could you do a pastie of : sudo fdisk -l ?

[02:33] about 2m [02:33] Alazair: if you run gparted, where is the unallocated at ? next to which parti , or beetwenn .. where ? [02:33] <|littlebear|> xeagle: get better machine [02:33] before my ext4 [02:33] xeagle_, system load will always be high when starting larger programs [02:33] i can screenshot gparted [02:34] xeagle_, its like that on every OS [02:34] but it run all right before i upgrade my ubuntu [02:34] i face a problem with grub 2,it recognise my backtrack partition,and ubuntu 10.04 partition, but no windows xp partition...if someone believe he will help me,talk to me...thanks [02:34] why does it matter if system load is high for 2 seconds? [02:34] usused resources are wasted resources anyway [02:34] venetinho: grub-legacy is the way out of the missery. [02:35] ? [02:36] grub legacy is grub 2? [02:36] Does anyone know how to enable home folder encryption? [02:36] venetinho: no, its 1. [02:36] gosh today airodump just does not like me :/ [02:36] ok..thanks oblu..i will search for it [02:36] venetinho: just apt-get grub-legacy [02:36] venetinho: nope legacy is 1 and below, 2 is above 1 [02:36] venetinho: just apt-get install grub-legacy [02:37] @ DasEi http://img46.imageshack.us/i/screenshotze.png/ [02:37] venetinho: What is the output of "sudo os-prober"?

[02:38] oblu: os-prober is used with grub legacy also... [02:38] Is there any way to get the notification area in Docky? I want to be able to have icons notifying me about mails, chat messages etc even without using ordinary panels. [02:38] : 3q for your help [02:38] Alazair: you can¿t use gparted while the partitions you want to modify are mounter or in use, better use gparted in a live cd [02:39] ? [02:39] Jordan_U: but its not autoimporting these to grub.conf right ? :) [02:39] venetinho: Are all of your ntfs partitions mountable? [02:39] realubot: no, but avant window navigadoes does [02:39] Gypsy_Slayer, i never cared for you ? [02:39] yes.. [02:39] what? [02:39] avant also supports indicators realubot [02:40] i know this xangua i used partedmagic live cd and it still wouldnt let me [02:40] brb smoking cig [02:40] Jordan_U I booted into recovery mode from the disk and evuntually got this http://pastebin.com/utKzxiAk [02:40] haha i was so used to amorok i didnt realize the ticker doesnt "scroll" in rhythmbox [02:40] How to stop dhcp to rewriten resolv.conf ? [02:40] Alazair: you don't want the 8mb in top, but the rounded 70 above sdb5, that will work from a live system with that fs unmounted, after resizing got to fit your /etc/fstab, else system won't boot [02:40] ThiagoMedeiros, kill dhclient [02:41] oblu: The problem is most likely that windows wasn't shut down properly and so his windows partition can't be mounted, which means that os-prober can't tell that windows is there. [02:41] ThiagoMedeiros, do your addressing statically [02:41] Alazair: parted magic¿¿ there is a gpartid standalone live cd, you can also boot from a usb [02:41] but i need to get ip using dhcp and dns manualy [02:41] xangua: Yeah, I know that. Well, maybe AWN will do as well. [02:41] i need to use a manual dns to all connections [02:41] Jordan_U: interesting, but i do not believe that its the same behaviour as in grub1 [02:42] Alazair: have you got a live cd ? [02:42] well usb [02:42] but i can burn a live cd i guess [02:42] xangua: Does AWN have an autohide like Docky has? [02:42] Alazair: that's fine too, reboot to it and come back here, so I'll guide you [02:42] ThiagoMedeiros, then kill dhclient after you get dhcp info [02:43] dan, congratulations, you crashed my ubuntu system with that last pic! === mght is now known as Hartwell [02:43] but kill every day.. have a tip to not rewrite it ? [02:43] ThiagoMedeiros, you can also edit dhclient.conf and add a prepend domain-name-servers directive [02:43] hmmm good [02:44] i will see this [02:44] realubot: it has intelhide like docky, it also just hide [02:44] xangua: ok, thanks. [02:44] ThiagoMedeiros, see http://linux.die.net/man/5/dhclient.conf [02:45] venetinho: Can you run boot info script as explained here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and pastebin the output?

Anybody know what it's called? [02:49] Gypsy_Slayer: more like flash (closed source software that we cant fix) has a lot of bugs in its PA support [02:49] AzMoo: quickly [02:49] maco: that's the one, cheers. [02:49] maco, ALSA cooperates much better [02:49] (oh, and PA isn't supported by what I'm using) [02:49] odds of flash going away for html5? [02:50] I am having a problem with nm-applet, wifi won't be even loaded when I turn my laptop on. Problem is temporarily solved by reinstalling wpa_supplicant [02:50] Please help :) [02:51] Here's a better question... [02:51] How would I install ALSA on my ubuntu server box? [02:52] venetinho: Can you boot into windows now? [02:52] Tann: alsa is already there. its built into the kernel [02:52] grub don't see windows...its only ubuntu and backtrack on the boot list.. [02:52] thanks maco [02:53] I'll look more into this then. [02:55] venetinho: According to the boot info script output windows should be in the boot list now.

[02:57] DasEi, I'll look into that, thanks! [02:57] hoban: uninstall the Nivida driver, and of interest why do you want to switch back to the open source one? [02:58] maco, ok... and thats the only way to get the bete new just released font? [02:58] hoban: and you can uninstall it easilly, system > administration > hardware drivers [02:58] patx: well itll be in 10.10 and i think public beta is only a month away [02:58] hoban: well if its one from the repo anyway [02:58] sebsebseb, I want to use ICC profiles with gnome-color-profiles which the nvidia driver isn't supported with [02:58] ..jockey-gtk :) [02:58] Hey all! [02:58] hoban: I don't know what ICC profiles are [02:58] patx: i dont think "but i want to play with the font" is a good reason to give during the interview for why yu want to be a member :P [02:59] maco, oh ok...

[03:26] mint: grub-install --recheck /dev/sda [03:26] xangua: on terminal doesn't say anything [03:27] mint: paste that again, please [03:27] I'm following this tutorial here: http://maketecheasier.com/turn-ubuntu-lucid-mac-os-x/2010/06/01 and I get to the "configuring global menu" step, and when I do the killall gnome-panel I get an error message.

[03:29] I did a netboot install, then installed the vmware tools, now it won't boot anymore [03:29] zombie-robot: I think Orage calendar can do that [03:29] it's failing on the chroot (switch_root) from the initramfs [03:30] patx: yes [03:30] xangua: it's ok now, but i don;t have the effects of compiz, what i have to do to have compiz? [03:30] Ross____: it should. it finds everything that has a 4-digit number, and user ids for humans are 4-digits [03:30] asdf1: compiz --replace [03:31] Ross____: unless of course you copy over from a fedora system.they start humans at 500 and we start at 1000 [03:31] xangua: thnx a lot :) [03:32] maco: ah i see it's like a relational database kinda thing , right? [03:32] hey DasEi its mint, it worked, thanks alot :D [03:32] Ross____: /etc/passwd is a text file. between the UIDs in it and /etc/shadow and /etc/group they sort of approximate one [03:33] maco, sorry to keep it up but do u think there is _any_ chance that i might find a member would would send me the .ttf ?

[03:47] Niglop: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/pidgin-developers/ppa/ubuntu karmic main [03:47] Niglop: save file, close gedit , then : [03:48] Niglop: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys A1F196A8 [03:48] how do i add that source DasEi ? [03:48] kirashi, nop, i didn't try. But since i'm not connected to internet, i'd have to do it via an ethernet cable [03:48] Niglop: open the file as above told : [03:48] Niglop: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list [03:48] and i'm not quite sure this weould resolve the thing [03:48] niglop : add line : [03:48] Niglop: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/pidgin-developers/ppa/ubuntu karmic main [03:49] i have to install gedit one sec.

[03:51] Niglop: mint is NOT supported here [03:51] anyone know if pcmanfm can be intergrated into gnome easier than having to open it initially [03:51] kirashi, thanks. [03:53] your welcome :) now is there anyone who knows why a usb drive wont mount on linux? [03:53] kk DasEi all done [03:53] Niglop : sudo apt-get update [03:54] Niglop: DasEi I will remove both of you. go private or go to the mint support channel. [03:54] IdleOne: right, I go private [03:54] how do you change the login screen settings? such as the background picture and the theme [03:54] #ubuntu does not support Mint. [03:54] Niglop: I'll pm you [03:54] i just downloaded a new theme but i don't know how to install it : ( [03:54] ross_: right yeah [03:54] ross_: the old GDM can be themed with loads of nice themes, the new one nope :( [03:55] what??? [03:55] are you serious?? [03:55] i can't change the theme?? === dm_ is now known as Delvien [03:55] ross_: yes, but don't worry ,their are good alternatives [03:55] so how?? [03:55] ross_: also their are programs that can change its background [03:55] tell me please master [03:56] ross_: also can get old one installed and used, but not as simple as just installing and useing. KDM is a nice alternative the one for KDE. Theres also Slim which is very customizable and some rather nice themes on the site for it. Plus theirs LXDM and XDM. [03:57] ross_: KDM is what I would use with Ubuntu [03:57] how does one get dwm to run at start up? [03:58] anyone knows how to disable Library Structure in Rhytmbox? [03:58] ross_: hope your partition isn't realy silly sized though, since it would want to put on quite a bit of KDE stuff. Plus this isn't Windows, you can have loads of programs installed without the system slowing down :) === Zeike is now known as brandonj [04:00] So, I am begining to wonder if Ubuntu is starting to drag my computer through the mud. Its progressivly getting slower, and I've only had it for like a week. [04:00] kirashi, ok, i ve installed ndiswrapper via synaptic package manager...and then ?? [04:00] Spaztic_One, Care to elaborate? [04:00] i edited the dhclient.conf to use manual dns, but now after restart dhclient the resolv.conf have 3 lines, 2 that i puted to use manual and 1 automatic of the router, how to disable this one? [04:00] Hey guys, I had a quick question [04:01] !ask | Finity [04:01] Finity: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [04:01] I have Ubuntu 10.04, and I need to install WICD on it [04:01] Finity: Need to install what on it? Whats WICD ? [04:01] why do you need to install wicd? [04:01] Hey, can anyone help me get VNC over the internet working? [04:01] !vnc > avi [04:01] avi, please see my private message [04:01] network manager works just fnie [04:01] gethoht: I had to do this with my old laptop, so I'm just more familiar with it [04:01] oh,,, gotcha [04:02] hey can anyone help me with ecryptfs? [04:02] finity tried apt-get install wicd ? [04:02] sebsebseb, Uh, perhaps I should've said, I need help connecting to my vnc server running on Ubuntu over the net. [04:02] problem is, I have no wired access, because the lan port is damaged, so I'm having to manually install it through USB [04:02] err [04:02] I just wanted to know, if there's some way to do a "sudo apt-get" into a single deb. file with all dependencies :X [04:02] well you should still be able to connect wireless with network manager now... install wicd then tool around with disabling network manager [04:02] or am I asking for the impossible? [04:03] avi: open ports or something I guess [04:03] Finity: you want to install a single deb ? [04:03] if you want to install a single deb it's dpkg -i whatever.deb [04:03] finity:^ [04:03] DasEi: I need to install wicd-client, along with all of it's dependencies [04:03] without having to painfully download all of those dependencies and install them [04:04] god ubuntu 10.04 launches SO QUICK on an ssd [04:04] u cant apt-get build-dep package? [04:04] Well, start up, and this probably has nothing to do with ubuntu, is slow. When I first power my laptop on, it takes it like 20 seconds to load bios, and it did it instantly before. Waking up and going to sleep takes longer than when Ubuntu was first installed, and of no relation to the slowness, there are miscellaneous errors and etcetera. [04:04] like 4 seconds from post to login screen [04:04] Finity: sudo apt-get install wicd-gtk [04:04] i edited the dhclient.conf to use manual dns, but now after restart dhclient the resolv.conf i got 3 lines, 2 that i puted to use manual and 1 automatic of the router, how to disable this one? i removed the lines domain-name and domain-name-servers at request line.. but this automatic dhcp dns continues [04:04] gethoht yes it does doesnt it!! [04:05] Finity: in your case, get it to usb and then : sudo dpkg -i wicd...deb [04:05] i impress all my mac friends with my boot speed... they're jealous [04:06] Finity: have you got another working box ? [04:06] i will always have an sdd in my laptops from now on [04:06] yeah, windows xp, though [04:06] *SSD [04:06] gethoht, Care to share your specs? I'm in the market for a SSD lappy. [04:06] since my e key is broken on my other Ubuntu Laptop [04:06] Also, what is the command to unload and reload sound drivers? [04:06] (and my password requires the e key :( ) [04:07] finity: funny one you are, reset passwd in single user mode [04:07] Spaztic_One modprobe [04:07] anyone? [04:07] I want to make a 4:20 reminder popup.like the restart window. except have it pop up at 4:19 and say its almost 4:20 and have a 2min countdown like it used to do when shutting down or restarting. and have it go away automatically at 4:21. [04:07] finity: idea is to use a live cd/usb, get the lappi on ssh from another box, chroot, have it easy to install [04:08] jimerickson: OK, how do I get a list of drivers in use or whatever I need to do to find out what driver I'm using for sound? [04:08] Merlin__: you need to mount luks - partition ? [04:08] Spaztic_One lsmod [04:09] mine's just an old Latitude D620, core 2 duo(1.83gGHz) with 4GB RAM and a 64GB intel SSD that I took out of a HP Blade server at work (we weren't using it) [04:09] maybe, i use ubuntu's ecrypt setup when i installed my server [04:09] and now i cannot mount it [04:09] !who | Merlin__ [04:09] Merlin__: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [04:09] it takes longer to POST then for ubuntu to boot completely [04:09] i edited the dhclient.conf to use manual dns, but now after restart dhclient the resolv.conf i got 3 lines, 2 that i puted to use manual and 1 automatic of the router, how to disable this one? i removed the lines domain-name and domain-name-servers at request line.. but this automatic last dns continues [04:09] Merlin__: if you run gparted, what is the type of that fs, I assume you crypted your homedir [04:10] Considering that xorg.conf no longer exists in Ubuntu Lucid, what's the "proper" way of switching to 16 bit color mode? [04:10] thiago, you might have to edit your dhcp server if that's possible [04:11] ThiagoMedeiros: are you saying you have a 3rd nameserver, not specified in the prepend command, or the "search" element in resolv.conf is still there? [04:11] DasEi : what command do i use with parted? [04:11] Merlin__: sudo gparted [04:11] i love docky... man if I could only get it to work reliably [04:11] gethoht: Yeah, that has become true of my computer (taking longer to post) but only because my computer has started taking about 20 seconds to post each time I start it up and then about 2-5 to start ubuntu [04:11] DasEi : This is a server i dont have x [04:11] Merlin__: ah [04:12] thune3: 3rd not sprecified, but in know this dns is the dns auto of the router [04:12] spaztic_one: try updating your bios and all system firmware to the latest [04:12] thune3: 3rd not specified, but i know this dns is the dns auto of the router [04:12] DasEi : I dont think its stored in its own partition [04:12] make sure that fastboot is on or that mem check is disabled (unless you want it enabled) [04:13] thune3: in prepend used only 2 [04:13] gethoht: It was taking a short time to post about a week ago though. Is there any reasonable explanation as to why it takes so long now? [04:13] i'd guess memory check or something enabled in teh bios [04:13] look for a "fastboot" option somewhere in your bios [04:14] or maybe try "load optimized settings" in the bios as awell [04:14] Would it be doing all of that before I even get to the bios menu screen or whatever? [04:14] Merlin__: I#m not too experienced with it, what does a : sudo ecryptfs-mount-private return ? [04:14] Spaztic_One: that kinda machine do you have? [04:14] I mean, my screen will be completely black for about 20 seconds before doing anything [04:15] Spaztic_One: what* [04:15] Anone know a good journaling program for person aluse, stretchable via mysql or something, thaat is only accessible bu me not over the webb, gmonr app? [04:15] 8anyone [04:15] Finity: Compaq Presario cq50. It was taking just a couple of seconds to do all of that and then start loading ubuntu about a week ago and has increased about ten fold since. [04:15] spaztic_one: you might have a hardware issue as well... dimm might be going bad or something [04:15] hello everyone [04:15] I am just so new to ubuntu [04:16] *anyone sorry for the typo [04:16] which book should I buy to learn the OS from bottom to top?

[04:18] ThiagoMedeiros: does your resolv.conf say it was "Generated by NetworkManager"? [04:18] yes [04:18] DasEi : point me to the right people?

I suddenly got weird mouse behavior in certain places, altering the effect of control keys. Alt works fine in keyboard shortcuts, so it is not the key itself. I can open an application window normally, but when I click inside a window it shows the hand mouse pointer and I can drag the window. When I press the alt key, it usually behaves like a normal click. Not fixed by rebooting. ???

[04:35] gethoht: i was just playing fallout 3 on my buddies tricked out PC ... i really want to keep playing but am too poor to buy a decent vid card for my comp. [04:35] scriptwarlock: may i pm you? [04:35] oldIT78: go ahead [04:35] DasEi : username [04:35] ok... uninstalling docky and installing gnome-do, let's see what happens here [04:35] hey scriptwarlock can u help me pls? [04:36] stormBlaster: what is it [04:36] I need a Pan newsreader user. I've marked the articles but don't know how to download them. [04:37] men im new in ubuntu :$ [04:37] and i from colombia :D [04:37] Any ideas? I need help. I suddenly got weird mouse behavior in certain places, altering the effect of control keys. Alt works fine in keyboard shortcuts, so it is not the key itself. I can open an application window normally, but when I click inside a window it shows the hand mouse pointer and I can drag the window. When I press the alt key, it usually behaves like a normal click. Not fixed by rebooting. ??? [04:38] stOrmBlast: the work-free drug place? [04:38] (#G7::E=10M1) hello what's up everyone [04:38] (#G1<:E@10M1) I am bored [04:38] Merlin__: reading up ecryptfs, I'm overasked by ssh, can you boot a live cd on it ? [04:38] cek [04:38] aw [04:38] annach: Please turn off your color (it's broken) and head to #ubuntu-offtopic for chatting, this isn't a social channel, thanks. [04:38] andy_h_: could be a stuck key [04:38] !ot | annach [04:38] annach: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [04:38] alrighty, I installed WICD [04:38] DasEi : no cdrom anymore, i replaced it with a HDD . thats when the problems began [04:39] Merlin__: usb boot possible ? [04:39] maybe [04:39] but if I do sudo ifconfig wlan0 up, I get "SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory" [04:39] DasEi : what would i do if i could? [04:40] st0rmBlaster: what is it? [04:40] Merlin__: found http://tinyurl.com/39axnyk [04:40] jiohdi: I don't see how: pure key use without mouse click is fine. [04:40] I recently installed ubuntu server 10.04 on an old computer and set up an SSH server. I was able to ssh from my laptop with no problems, but now after rebooting the server machine when i try to ssh over i get "connection refused". i did not change settings other than editing the fstab. any ideas? [04:40] I have a BCM4401-B0 Wifi card (as determined by sudo lshw -C network [04:40] st0rmBlast: what is it [04:40] Merlin__: down that page it's desribed [04:40] i need to find a colombia chatroom :$ [04:40] c* [04:40] can u help me ? [04:40] st0rmBlast: for ubuntu? [04:41] andy_h_: dont know but funky behaviors can sometimes end when you press all the keys and giggle them a bit [04:41] oh nevermind, that's my ethernet port -.- [04:42] andy_h_: sometimes shaking them a bit too, food stuffs between the keys :) [04:44] DasEi : this machine has ~300 MB ram, would a live cd boot on this? [04:44] johdi: the key works fine in all cases except with the mouse. The mouse works fine outside applications windows, like when first accessing a panel. I'm not sure if modified keys have any effect at that point. [04:44] I need to run a command on Startup that requires sudo root privileges to execute. I placed the command in the "Startup Applications" but because it needs sudo it does not appear to be executing. How do you execute a command at Startup that requires sudo? Thanks. [04:45] Merlin__: that's truly hard, well there is swap.. maybe that also works on ssh, but I just read up now, so can't tell [04:45] frodo: bash -c ? [04:45] !bum | frodo [04:45] jiohdi: sorry i misspelt. the key works fine in all cases except with the mouse. The mouse works fine outside applications windows, like when first accessing a panel. I'm not sure if modified keys have any effect at that point. [04:45] frodo: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto === leng is now known as lengyanling [04:45] wew sorry bad idea [04:46] Merlin__: you said it occured when adding a new drive, already tried just to unplug it again ? [04:46] ok... loading docky from gnome-do ... i'm trying to understand what gnome-do does, it looks like it has some neat features for productivity [04:46] andy_h_: I suppose it could be a key binding conflict, but I could not help you find it [04:46] i'm installing ubuntu 10.04 on my hdd and i got to 'prepare disc space' but it says 'this computer has no operating systems on it' yet I have windows xp on it. [04:46] DasEi : i didnt [04:46] The_Flying_OS: thats no operating system ;) [04:46] Merlin__: maybe easiest way to least acces it's data again [04:46] DasEi : just install a new drive, i tried to use it for the /var/ directory [04:46] ok moment of truth.... let's run some reboots and see if my configuration stays [04:46] jihohdi: thanks for your thoughts. [04:46] well i need any colombian room :$ [04:47] stOrmBlast: if you are looking for ubuntu support in spanish you can go to #ubuntu-es [04:47] !es | stOrmBlast [04:47] stOrmBlast: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. [04:47] DasEi : i think it botched the whole system, and i just want to get as much data as i can off it before i reinstallubuntu [04:47] jiohdi seriously i dont want it to override windows xp [04:47] frodo: what you want resides in /etc/init.d/rcS [04:47] ubottu i got IRC in my ubuntu how i can join in a colombian room here:O? [04:47] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [04:48] bye [04:48] lolz [04:48] The_Flying_OS: the best way to avoid that is to create a partition with nothing on it... but if ubuntu is failing to recognize, it will not automatically include xp in grub, but that can be added later [04:48] !espanol | stOrmBlast [04:48] stOrmBlast: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. [04:48] Merlin__: I can tell for luks, but I'm entirely new to ecryptfs, I don't know how it works.. sorry [04:48] DasEi : k [04:49] how do i create a partition for windows xp alone? [04:49] fdisk, parted, gparted, take your pick The_Flying_OS [04:50] The_Flying_OS: gparted from live cd can resize the hdd and you can make the new space completely unformated and empty [04:50] ubottu if i type this i need to leave this room ? [04:50] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [04:50] can i do this in the 'prepare disc space' step of the installation process? [04:50] st0rmBlast: it will only open a new room for you [04:50] The_Flying_OS: ubuntu will detect the empty space and ask if you want to use it [04:51] hi [04:52] wow ty:D [04:52] jiohdi where will ubuntu do that? i'm at the 'prepare disc space' of the installation process. i really don't want to restart [04:53] The_Flying_OS: it should ask you if you want to use the exact missing area, if not, then something is wrong and it is not reading your hdd correctly === KenjiP0p|away is now known as KenjiP0p [04:53] how do you change the boot and login themes? [04:54] icedtea: pls read the grub2 site [04:54] what is /dev/mmcblk0p1 ? [04:54] under this computer has no operating systems' there's a blue bar that's labeled dev/mmcblk0p1 [04:56] The_Flying_OS, generally its an SD card [04:56] mmc may be like those used for cameras [04:57] not the normal sd card [04:57] hello everyone [04:57] st0rmBlast: for login see the gdm2 [04:57] icedtea: for login see the gdm2 [04:58] st0rmBlast: sorry xsend === mxyzptlk is now known as Guest52858 === lengyanling is now known as Elane [04:59] maybe ubuntu was reading my sd card instead of my hdd [04:59] that's what i think happened [04:59] thanks [04:59] i'm glad ubuntu moved away from the brown themes [04:59] hm i wonder what that was like [04:59] I still say it was always ORANGE. [05:00] hahaha [05:00] ok it looks like docky as part of gnome-do is behaving a little better and keeping my settings [05:01] anybody have any expereince wit haircrack? im trying to get it to select a network to crack [05:01] DasEi : this machine wont boot off usb [05:01] So, I have 3 Ubuntu boxes that are used often. there was an updated a week or 2 ago... me and my uncle just restarted our boxes, and lost networking. my cousin restarted immediately after the update and lost networking then. [05:01] n0alias: not the place to ask [05:01] 2 10.04 LTS and 1 9.04 boxes [05:01] hello everyone [05:01] Merlin__: connect the sda to another comp ? same situation as a live then .. [05:01] hi [05:01] im trying to find LAST_ACK's with tcpdump but dont know what im looking for in the dump :s http://pastebin.org/389753 [05:02] DasEi : ill seewhat i can do [05:03] kiaas: is your inet connection static or dhcp [05:03] Flannel around ? [05:04] scriptwarlock, it's DHCP. a single windows and 2 macs continue to function correctly on the same switch and Wireless router. [05:04] 2 boxes are wireless, 1 was wired. [05:05] kiaas: is the wifi enable on that lappy? [05:05] i need rest can i get a hand on how to clean up my desktop based on file extension ? [05:05] scriptwarlock, no laptops. [05:05] kiaas: On the wired box what is the output of "sudo dhclient eth0"? [05:06] kiass: can you be more specific about "lost networking" ... does the wireless connect but you can't get on the internet? [05:06] kiaas: desktop using wifi dongle? [05:06] i'm at Prepare Disc Space in the installation process of Ubuntu 10.04 and now it recognizes Windows XP BUT it's not giving me the option to install ubuntu side by side with winxp. the only option i get is 'erase all and use the entire disct' and i can specify the partitions manually but the bar is completely orange [05:06] scriptwarlock, PCI Wireless cards Jordan_U, the wired box is offline, had to use its power cord and ethernet cable for this mac. [05:07] kiaas: we'll be happy if you send more little infos on your boxes pastebin... its not easy to guess [05:07] kiaas: Wired problems are generally easier to debug than wireless ones. [05:07] Yay! docky works again, but only as part of gnome-do ... docky2 by itself doesn't seem to work on my 10.04 64-bit machine [05:08] didn't stuckey's go out of business? [05:09] err sorry [05:09] I was just wondering if there was a more general problem, as 3 different boxes running 2 different versions of ubuntu, with 3 different networking chipsets all failed after the same updates. I'll try to get them running next to the mac tomorrow, so I can be on IRC and fiddle with them at the same time. [05:09] anybody here knows HylaFAX fax server setup?? [05:10] ranjan: nope sorry -- [05:10] kiass: open up a terminal and type in ifconfig on all the ubuntu boxes and paste it in pastebin [05:10] Blue1, any idea about a t38modem ?? [05:11] ranjan: no sorry - I haven't used a fax machine in over a decade... [05:11] Blue1, ok :) [05:11] kiass: haev you tried anything simple, like turning the power off of the router for one minute and putting it back in? [05:11] ranjan: but when you need them, they are invaluable [05:12] kiass: or actually... unplug the power from the router/modem for 1 minute and plug it back in ... sorry on the grammar fail [05:12] gethoht, yeah. Done everything but replaced the switch and DSL Modem/router. I did replace the Wireless AP. [05:13] kiaas: start pasting the machines info, pastebin... eth0's whatever... [05:14] kiaas: include the pci wireless card.. [05:15] scriptwarlock, as I have access to a total of 1 machine affected... and can only have 1 machine running at a time in my house, that's a problem.(I live in an RV.) I have to wait to use the office in the Main Building, which is locked at this time of night. === administrator is now known as Guest8383 [05:16] Can someone help me with a battery power management issue revolving around FATAL: Module pmu_battery not found - I need the pmu_battery module [05:16] kiass: can you ping dslmodem/router from the boxes? [05:16] is it easier to install win xp first and then ubuntu or is it easier to install ubuntu first and then winxp? [05:17] The_Flying_OS: Windows first is easiest. [05:17] darn. [05:17] The_Flying_OS: windows first.... ubuntu's bootloader will see XP and automatically add it so you can dual-boot the machine [05:17] Not necessary, just resize your partitions if necessary then install ubuntu [05:18] Use Grub 2 for your mbr, solved [05:18] The_Flying_OS: dont be deterred, if you have done the opposite, its not going to destroy your computer, just a little more "getting the hands dirty" to be done in the long run later, thats all. [05:18] hey, does Windows run in Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud? [05:18] i don't have my winxphome installation disc and ubuntu is having trouble detecting or working with winxp and i think it's because my winxp is infected and i screwed around with the registry files. i'm going to have to download the image for winxphome . [05:19] do you think ubuntu is having trouble setting up side by side with winxp because winxp doesnt want to boot because of an infection? [05:19] gethoht, no, they fail to get an IP, and while they are trying, I haven't seen them even having the correcy hostmask or gateway. [05:20] kiass: have you tried giving them a static ip and then trying to ping the router? [05:20] <_jesse_> The_Flying_OS: that "shouldn't" effect it [05:20] hey DasEi when i tried booting up windows it said the device 2834712 bla bla could not be found so i had to reinstall windows and now i have to get the grub boot loader back again :( [05:20] <_jesse_> *affect [05:21] well the last time i tried to install ubuntu, it detected winxp but it didn't give me the option to install side by side. === eledesmar_ is now known as eledesmar [05:21] how do I "untar a tarball" [05:21] tar xvf file.tar [05:21] is there any speed difference between kubuntu and mint 9 kde? [05:21] The_Flying_OS: wel you can manually parition it...but I'd not recommend that for newbies. [05:21] <_jesse_> The_Flying_OS: well you'd need two martitions [05:22] <_jesse_> *partitions [05:22] or it's a tar.gz then the command is tar zxvf file.tar.gz [05:22] rebert i havnt tried either but im guessing they are the same since they use the same window manager [05:22] _jesse_: I sorta like windows - you have to give it all the cookies (disc space), then steal some back to install linux, and hey windows doesn't care [05:23] robertzaccount: i run but ubuntu, kubuntu and a mint 9 box(running gnome) and there is no speed difference from what I can tell [05:23] i'm not happy with kubuntu... it's always seemed to have more problems then ubuntu [05:23] if I can't use DHCP with ubuntu, that might be a problem. my router only allows me to set 4 static IPs in it, and setting them on the machines themselves has had problems in the past. (namely my router likes to assign the IP to another machines as soon as the one using it goes offline.) [05:23] oh ok thanks [05:24] though mint is awesome... definitely the distro i recommend for newbies, or people lazy enough to not want to install all their media codecs manually.... plus they do have some nice mint specific tools [05:24] <_jesse_> Blue1: haha I suppose, you don't *need* to give it all of the disk though, it'll run on a parition [05:24] kiaas: the sounds like dhcp to me [05:24] <_jesse_> Blue1: * smaller partition [05:24] gethoht: agree :) [05:24] _jesse_: I had to do that last night to re-install windows -- and after that, I did a clean install of 10.04 so ehh okay [05:25] kiass: the "only 4 static ip" statement makes absolutely no sense === Jordan_U_ is now known as Jordan_U [05:25] the router shouldnt' care at all how many static ip's you have on the lan side of the network unless you have some really funky subnet mask [05:25] gethoht, I can't reserve IPs for specific mac addresses in my DSL modem/router, after 4. I have 16 machines. [05:25] o hai, is ubuntu-netbook more optimized to use less power than regual desktop ubuntu? [05:26] kiaas: what type of router, what software? [05:26] hi, I am trying to redirect the output from time to append the results into a file. According to the man pages for for time, I can do somethine like "time -a -o mylog ./myprogram", but that returns an error "-a: command not found" [05:26] well you don't have to reserve them for static ip's, just put them out of your dhcp range [05:26] kiaas: i smell router issue [05:26] k0sh: from my understanding it is just optimized for smaller screens [05:26] yeah kiass: i'm feeling this is a networking issue... [05:27] kiass: is your router a different piece of equipment then your wireless access point? [05:27] DanZ3: well the man page doesn't show a -a option [05:27] Has anyone tried ubuntu on the HTC HD2? [05:28] DanZ3: That's because you're using the shell's built in time [05:28] Dan: no... does ubuntu even have support for arm architecture? [05:28] gethoht: somebody recently ported it [05:28] I have DSL Modem, SPeedstream 4200. The router software on it is a little buggy, but has only stopped me from being able to forward ports, in the past. It also refuses to stop prodividing certain functions to use any single interfaced device as a router. [05:28] DanZ3: env time -a -o mylog ./myprogram [05:28] hi!!! [05:28] Haai! [05:29] guys, when I type rfkill list [05:29] my wireless has a hardware block on on it [05:29] gethoht, there's the DSL Modem, which is my router, an 8 port switch, and then the AP. there's 3 more switches on the network, but they are not connected to the machines having issues [05:29] though, my BIOS has the wireless set to enabled [05:30] kiass: make sure that dhcp is turned off on the access point, and check for switch loops [05:30] thanks that worked. Although can some one explain to me why that was happening? [05:31] I'm connected on the iMac with the cable on the wired ubuntu box failed with. [05:31] so If it's an issue with my hardware, it seems to only be affecting Ubuntu boxes. the iMac can also use the AP just fine. [05:32] whats the console command to reconfigure the network?

[07:48] scriptwarlock: It would need to be compiz --replace on lucid and intel is most likely blacklisted [07:48] scriptwarlock, Blacklisted PCI ID 8086:2562 detected [07:48] Merlin__: for future thngs, consider using luks or truecrypt-container, they are easier to maintain as I think and more common [07:48] scriptwarlock, and a couple of warnings [07:48] besides, there's no reason to mess with intel if you have nvidia except to reserve power on a lappy [07:49] what kind og warning but does it launches? [07:49] Merlin__: they get mounted automatically at bootup and are also to be moved elsewhere case things mess, and won't bother like this [07:49] scriptwarlock: to me?

[08:11] scriptwarlock: 1) Compiz checks are hardcoded into the lucid compiz binary with no skip checks workaround 2) The intel driver is quite buggy so compiz will just crash in the driver or crash X or worse 3) I already said there is no reason to mess with the intel gpu aside from power issues if there is an nvidia card available [08:11] Hi!

[09:01] Slimp: you could use firestarter and add a rule [09:01] ActionParsnip: what kind of rule? [09:02] Slimp: you can't do that in a firewall.

You could also install an application proxy (web proxy for instance) and block URLs in there. [09:03] Slimp: like only allow traffic to the other services you have and deny evrything else, not sure if it can use names. You could set the systems you want access to use a different IP range, then just ban all IPs which dont fall into that range [09:03] Slimp: Take a look at http://www.squid-cache.org [09:03] Hello, I am trying to install a tarball from source (first time I had to do this) and I am following an online guide.

So, when I issued the command 'tar -zxvf' I extracted the folder from within? [09:05] ljsoftnet: uncompress that file and search for a "readme.txt" it will tell you how to install [09:05] iceman_3233, was that msg to me [09:05] Is Ubuntu supposed to write files on windows shared location without breaking the file permissions? [09:05] ActionParsnip: what do i do next? [09:06] M82: yes, then cd into the folder and start sniffing around [09:06] are you running compiz-fusion? [09:06] ActionParsnip: thank you very much for your help :D [09:06] MaRk-I: i read the readme.txt its not there [09:06] ljsoftnet: i dont know, i dont have the file or kde, look in the files you have and find a readme or install file [09:06] How do I set a default soundcard, or blacklist the ones i don't use? I am running KUBUNTU, but no one in the IRC or the forums know how to solve my prob [09:06] you need to edit asound.conf [09:06] theere might be a better ubuntu way to do it [09:06] iceman_3233, nope i try;d but it gives some Blacklised error [09:06] but that's how i've done it with other distros. [09:07] Slimp: You can configure your clients to access the internet via the squid and block them from accessing it directly in the firewall. You can then setup access control lists in Squid to control what sites they can / can't access. [09:07] dignan, where is that file? [09:07] also pulseaudio. you have been warned. [09:07] Th3raid0r: if you have a soundcard and an onboard soundcard you dont wish to use you can disable the onboard in bios [09:07] Th3raid0r: should be one in /etc. also check for ~/.asoundrc [09:07] how about restricted driver, have you checked [09:07] how do i check for that [09:07] #ubuntu(+CLcfjnt #ubuntu-unregged 5:10)] [Act: 4,6,7] [09:08] oops [09:08] http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/.asoundrc [09:08] ActionParsnip: Well, that i have already done, but there is a sound device on my ATI graphics card [09:08] ActionParsnip: it says it needs KDE 4.0 [09:08] eoke: seems over complicated. I have to do what to my clients? Install a program on each of them? [09:08] system, admin, hardware [09:08] ljsoftnet: you need to read the instructions, there may be some on the website you downloaded from [09:09] iceman_3233, yeh... it says there are no prop drivers in use... [09:09] ActionParsnip: i already did but its not there, the website said KDE/Gnome [09:09] is evolution 2.30 stable? should i update 10.04 evolution (i havent even set it up yet) [09:09] do you know how to get into your custom tab? [09:10] ljsoftnet: http://www.kbasic.com/download.html read below "Installation on linux" you also have to install the list of dependencies [09:10] for effects [09:10] eoke: it seems like squid is a web proxy, not an internet proxy. [09:10] Squid is remarkably flexible === gewt is now known as l33td00d [09:11] iceman_3233, did i miss something [09:11] Slimp: there is no such things as "Internet Proxy". [09:11] ..??? [09:11] Help! [09:11] proxy is as proxy does. that's what my mom said === l33td00d is now known as gewt [09:11] ljsoftnet: ok i extracted the file, there are executables in the folder, you can launch the app using those [09:11] * dignan throws Gryllida a life preserver === sinux_ is now known as sinux12 [09:12] Go to System > Preferences > Appearance [09:12] [09:12] Go to System > Preferences > Appearance [09:12] [09:12] hold on [09:12] SwedeMike: Point is I want to block all services to and from certian hosts, not just a few like web and ftp. [09:12] iceman_3233: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [09:12] sorry [09:12] I'm unable to write files to a network-shared windows directory for the user to open., [09:12] Slimp: yes, I've understood that that's what you want, and it's not that easy. There is no way to do that currently. [09:13] Slimp: only way is to disallow all Internet access and force the internal hosts to use application based proxies. [09:13] Gryllida: does the account you are using have write access? [09:13] What do you mean that's not possible? [09:13] You can do that with iptables [09:13] dignan: no you can't. [09:14] dignan: ip tables uses ips, user wants to do it with host names [09:14] ActionParsnip: it does, and I am able to write, but when windows user tries to open the files, the 'access denied' warning pops up, while I'm still able to edit and open the file fine. [09:14] ActionParsnip: i already extracted the file, just dont know the command to launch the app and what file [09:14] Oh, that is a different story. [09:14] i need a help for update my hardware driver for my pc [09:14] SwedeMike: There has to be a way. Can't I just have my gate machine be a dns server, and not serve DNS requests to certain hosts, while also have my firewall denying access to any dns but the gate machine it's self? [09:14] ljsoftnet: i'm guessing kbrun, you have 3 executable files, try them [09:14] ... [09:14] how can you display wifi network information that shows what mode you're connected with? I've tried several things and just can't find it. I have a wireless 'n' router, in mixed mode, and I want to know what mode my laptop is in right now [09:15] Slimp, SwedeMike: You can specify a hostname --> 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts [09:15] Gryllida: ok then check the ownership of the files. [09:15] ok next big question : a creative Xi-Fi card [09:15] ActionParsnip: just kbrun in terminal or with a command? [09:15] Slimp: yes, that'd work but how would you then block access that is directly to the IP, or if a user locally enters the hostnames into their hosts-file? [09:15] chrisXFCE: how do you mean? [09:15] chrisXFCE: good idea. [09:15] ljsoftnet: you can double click it in dolphin or whatever file manager you use [09:15] this is for pesty [09:15] SwedeMike: I see what you mean. [09:15] Slimp, "cat /etc/hosts" -- See what those files does. :) [09:15] ActionParsnip: ok [09:16] Slimp: by changing the host alias in /etc/hosts you'll resolve the hosts to localhost instead. clever solution. [09:16] dignan, chrisXFCE: that would only work if done on the client machine. [09:16] ljsoftnet: you will need to satisfy deps as the app hasnt been installed via apt-get so if you are missing stuff it needs it wont run [09:16] Slimp: I missed the beginning of this discussion... Why do you want to limit access by hostname? [09:16] Slimp: then if you have a DNS server, use the same tactic. [09:16] ActionParsnip: i just opened the IDE, gonna explore now [09:17] ActionParsnip: i double clicked on kbide [09:17] wawawawa: to block windows pcs on the network from accessing automatic update, even if users fiddle. [09:17] aha [09:18] Slimp, I joined recently (and is playing video games online). Yes, it would be done on the client. Unless you use a machine to act as a router. [09:18] ? [09:18] hello [09:18] dignan, you're saying configure my gate to also be the networks DNS server, and do what you said to block the hostname? [09:19] or what Chris said. [09:19] Yes. [09:19] Slimp: my first thought would be to run your own caching nameserver and have an authoritative record blackholing the windows update A record. [09:19] That's how a lot of filtering is done.. Opendns.com does that [09:19] Hi. I just updated to Lucid. Why is it that I have a double mount for my drives? For example, in my /media folder, my USB drive is mounted as both /media/foo and /media/foo_ [09:19] what is gmail's recieving encryption ssl or tls? === KenjiP0p is now known as KenjiP0p|away [09:19] wawawawa: okay, so what's the best way to go about that? [09:19] Bind? [09:20] zus: TLS port 587 [09:20] slimp: set up bind. create a zone file for the windows update zone. you're basically hijacking the response from the real one... [09:20] loquitus: is that what mount says? You can't double mount a block device [09:21] zus: That's assuming you mean their SMTP server [09:21] slimp: you only need one A record in the zone file that points to 127.0.0.1 or some other "non destination [09:21] wawawawa: I'm hijacking the responce? That implies it's receiving something first. I'd rather it heard nothing to begin with. [09:21] eoke, receiving. [09:21] ActionParsnip: no. mount does not. but in /media, the foo drive is mounted as both foo/ and foo_/, and one of them is mounted as root and the other is mounted as the corrected user [09:21] ActionParsnip: how do I check the ownership of the files? [09:22] ok i give up what s the "stock " remote desktop viewer ? [09:22] slimp: sorry - bad explanation. clients will lookup the windows update name and your local dns server will give them a "fake" response pointing to a local ip or some other thing [09:22] hi, i'm on a two-monitor setup, one of the screens is dead now...how can i switch to a one monitor setup as easiest as possible so i can revert back to a two monitor setup if i get a new screen? [09:22] Gryllida: is it a windows user having issues accessing or the ubuntu user having issue? [09:22] ActionParsnip: right click, properties, permissions returns 'permissions could not be determined' [09:22] zus: POP or IMAP? === JimmyJ is now known as JimmyJ|zz [09:22] eoke, pop [09:23] wawawawa: okay. So I'm new to bind, it says there differnt config scenarios. Do I want a "chaching server"? [09:23] ActionParsnip: it's me having issues putting my files to a windows share, I have no idea how to set permissions for that user to be able to open the file. [09:23] loquitus: can you use www.pastie.org and give the output of: mount thanks [09:23] caching* [09:23] eoke, i am not familliar with the imap... i hear it's better [09:23] Gryllida: which user though. Is the same user making the file then unable to read the file? [09:23] !away > JimmyJ|zz [09:23] JimmyJ|zz, please see my private message [09:23] ActionParsnip: no, another username [09:23] zus: port 995 but not sure if it's SSL or TLS [09:24] slimp: yes. I think that's a good start. You'll need to create a zone file for the windows update zone too [09:24] ActionParnsip: I think I found the answer. thanks [09:24] eoke, i think its ssl then if SMTP is TLS... [09:24] Gryllida: so one ubuntu usr puts a file on a windows share, then another user logs onto ubuntu and cannot read the same file [09:24] loquitus: np man [09:24] ActionParsnip: sorry I must have been unclear [09:25] eoke, ill see in a sec hehe [09:25] ActionParsnip: I'm putting my file to a windows share on machine X, then user B logs on to machine X (using windows xp) and tries to read the file, gets access denied [09:25] how many ubuntu xchat rooms are there? this can't be the only one out there, right? [09:26] ActionParsnip: all this time I'm connected to machine X using my own username and am able to read/write this file allright [09:26] ActionParsnip: I'm on Ubuntu 10.04 [09:26] ross_: type "/msg alis list *ubuntu*" and count [09:26] Gryllida: ok from ubuntu, what is the output of: ls -la file of the file on the share? [09:26] zus: It's also worth noting if you logon to gmail and click the settings link top right then the Forward POP/Imap link there are step by step instructions available for many clients. [09:26] ross_: what do you mean by "ubuntu xchat room"? [09:26] ActionParsnip: how would I put the filepath there? [09:26] ActionParsnip: smb://computername/foldername/ ... or what? [09:26] ActionParsnip, do you have any knowledge of a creative Xi-Fi card? [09:26] eoke, thanks. [09:27] ross_: Xchat is just one of many IRC clients: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat [09:27] this chat room [09:27] Gryllida: you will need to access it maybe from ~/.gvfs or mount the share [09:27] ok [09:27] there are other xchat ubuntu chatrooms out there [09:27] this isn't the only one, right? that's what i'm asking [09:27] Can anyone walk me thru creating an ad hoc, I want to share my internet with my iPod Touch through wifi from my laptop. I have followed a few tutorials I have found on the forums, but have been unsuccessful [09:27] eoke, is imap better than pop? and do you know if evolution 2.30 is stable? should i update it? [09:27] ross_: xchat is an app, you dont need to prepend ubuntu chat room with xchat, its silly [09:28] you know what i mean [09:28] i was just asking [09:28] ross_: you mean rooms related to ubuntu, in xchat go to "server" menu select "list of channels" type ubuntu and search === sree is now known as sreR [09:30] jagadish: http://pastebin.com/F3xZm0cR [09:30] ross_: run: /msg alis list *ubuntu* in the place you type text and in the new tab it will show you all the channel aliases / names containing the word ubuntu, you can now count them === KenjiP0p|away is now known as KenjiP0p === pete_ is now known as Guest15940 [09:30] darth_tux71: i know creative can be a real pain, i wholeheartedly advise to avoid them [09:30] well pesty has one and it is not working =( [09:30] llutz: nice command dude [09:31] tee hee === Guest15940 is now known as localhost [09:31] zus: For a comparison of pros and cons see http://www.upperhost.com/pop3imap.htm.

[09:35] do* [09:35] Gryllida: you may have to set the folder in windows to inherit down the permissions on the folder to the file and folders below [09:35] Okay, now what would I put in my alsa-base.conf to set the priority? [09:36] would it be snd-HDA-Intel? [09:36] or snd-CA0106? [09:36] ActionParsnip: I'd rather set the default for all my new files have same permissions as the folder they are in [09:37] ActionParsnip: How can I do it?

[09:41] MaRk-I: like I log in to the windows share as 'john', I put 'john' there, and if 'bob' comes to use the machine, they would not have access?

[11:10] I am not able to change the geometry of my screen :-( Does this setup require a special driver? http://paste.pocoo.org/show/236392/ [11:10] rukubites: you seem to be talking about ports, not controller. If you have an onboard ICH controller try switching it to AHCI-mode in bios. [11:10] jvainio: "cp /home/username/ Destination" [11:10] SwedeMike: I did that [11:10] jvainio: indus was kicked out while ago [11:11] oh [11:11] your are english? [11:11] SwedeMike: It is in AHCI mode now. [11:11] well do you know how to copy all (dirs and files) from one place to another? [11:11] rukubites: I doubt it'll help to move between ports on the same controller. [11:11] jvainio: cp /home/username Destination [11:11] huage_: who r u adressing ? [11:11] Archana, that system had any other OS installed? [11:11] archana: thank you [11:11] jvainio: cp -ax source/ target/ [11:12] what? [11:12] om26er: windows.. [11:12] xp [11:12] jvainio, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=35087 [11:12] I am not able to change the geometry of my screen :-( Does this setup require a special driver? http://paste.pocoo.org/show/236392/ lkddb pci 1039 0741 [11:12] Archana, if it does not work this way you could install Ubuntu using Wubi from within windows [11:12] are your englisher? [11:12] huage_: I mean...who are you talking/writing to ? [11:12] SwedeMike: I'm not a hardware guy. You're right, I was talking about ports. [11:13] huage, this channel is for Ubuntu help and is english only. [11:13] thank you abhi_nav for trying to help. However, I am already copying [11:13] jvainio, hmm [11:13] The ahci settings have ports 1-6, and Port 2 as the DVD rom. However at the start, it says the WD is on port 0. [11:13] Archana: http://www.oreillynet.com/linux/cmd/cmd.csp?path=c/cp [11:13] But in the settings, they are all not detected except for the CDROM [11:14] I'm chinese. [11:14] philinux: thanks fo the page [11:14] huage, if you dont have any support questions please leave. [11:15] fox.\ [11:17] SwedeMike: Can you help further? [11:17] rukubites: not really. I've given you the hints I would use myself. [11:18] om26er: I guess that meant "goodbye" or "understood" :-) [11:18] :D [11:18] SwedeMike: Fair enough. I am confused whether you thought I should go in and mess with the hardware? [11:18] english pig. [11:19] maybe he can only see some lines said by us, as the chinese government internet filter filters out a lot of the data [11:19] rukubites: whether I thought it, or why I thought it? [11:19] I remember when I was in China - I couldn't access almost any internet pages [11:19] rukubites: if you connected the drive to some 2 channel special controller on the motherboard it would have made sense to move it to the main 6channel controller, but you already did that so... [11:19] I remember when I was in America - I have to pay premium to access almost any internet pages. [11:19] jvainio: wouldn't put it passed them [11:19] SwedeMike: I haven't played with the innards. I bought the box today. [11:20] jvainio: btw ... do you know if it's possible to get a remote Ubuntu to "log in" ...via ssh maybe ? [11:21] corax: you can ssh in, and run whatever apps you want and have them appear lo a local X server. Or use vnc, or freenx for a remote desktop [11:21] !ssh | corax [11:21] corax: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH for client usage. PuTTY is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) [11:22] corax:That option is called X forwarding, you can use a remote login using xdmcp [11:23] remote sessions [11:23] xdmcp is handy. but is more for local lans only I recall. (at least i think thats how it is) [11:23] Dr_Willis: yes...BUT.. (there is always a but ;-)) .... I need the Ubuntu PC to log in ... not being confused with "I need to log in to a remote PC" ... the Remote Desktop feature in Ubuntu only works when the user _HAS_ logged in ...after that no problem ...but how do I get the computer logged in, so that I may remote control normaly ? [11:24] corax: you mean the remote desktop feauture of GNOME's Default share desktop.. feature. :) [11:24] http://pastebin.com/wMzyfsah -- what now? Google isn't very helpful... [11:24] corax: the ways ee mention do not share the 'current visible' desktop :) [11:24] corax: you can set up GDM to auto login to gnome. and set gnome to auto start and enable that 'share this desktop' feature. [11:25] corax: howeer that can be much Slower in response then using vncserver,ssh, or freenx directly. [11:25] corax: people get confused at how flexiable linux can be in this 'area' they are used to how windows +Vnc share only the current 'visible' desktop. [11:25] hi [11:26] hi... [11:26] i need some help... [11:26] can someone explain me how to bridge ppp0 internet access to eth0 without loosing access? [11:26] i have been asking this since yesterday and have found nothign [11:26] ..... [11:26] iceberg, hi, on what? [11:27] corax: this might help you: http://shifter.devloop.org.uk/ [11:27] Dr_Willis: I know of the autologin feature ...this doesn't help, as I want to be able to have the PC log on to a specified user...not a predetermined user. I know about X-forwarding...I have used that alot...but in this case I do not wish to startup a non-local, non-visible X-session up ...just a regular session ...as I would when I would sit in front of the Desktop. [11:27] can anyone assist me with the instalation of nvidia 6200A agp === KenjiP0p is now known as KenjiP0p|away === KenjiP0p|away is now known as KenjiP0p [11:28] hah, sorry, this won't work for a non-predetermined user... === iceboxx_12 is now known as jagadish [11:28] can anyone assist me with the instalation of nvidia 6200A agp [11:28] hey guys I have installed gnome-alsamixer but how do I get it as a tray icon? [11:28] corax, there is a linux version of RDP i think [11:28] totaam: no worries :-) but thanx for the try [11:28] when trying to run a php script i'm prompted for a run/save as dialoge from my net browser.. what could be causing this? it used to work.. [11:28] corax, as in a linux RDP server. [11:28] corax: ive not seen any way to force via ssh gnome to login to a specific user. In theory you could alter the gdm config and set the new user to be the one you want. and restart gdm and let it auto-log into the new user. but thats a bit of a nasty way [11:28] how do i compile script? [11:29] Dr_Willis: I was just about to suggest that!!\ [11:29] Is gdesklet or screenlet still useful or is nothing really developed for them anymore? [11:29] airtonix: yes there is ...its called XRDP ... but again....it starts up a non-visible session ...not a local one. [11:29] corax: you want xdmcp? using your machine as x-client [11:29] can anyone assist me with the instalation of nvidia 6200A agp [11:29] zcat[1]: i get dizy thinking of the issues with that. :0 [11:29] Dr_Willis: true :-) ...but I can tell that you get my problem now ;-) [11:29] can anyone assist me with the instalation of nvidia 6200A agp [11:30] xdmcp wont start up a desktop thats visiable on the remote box., freenx wont either (last i checked) [11:30] corax: You can start X then "DISPLAY=:0.0 gnome-session" [11:30] corax: i dont see why you really need to have it showing up on the remote box. Unless you are going to be training someone :) [11:30] llutz: the task is to get the remote PC logged in ...and keep it that way .... also when I shut down the machine I've used to make it do so. [11:30] corax: this is over a lan, or over the internet? [11:31] How do I set the default permission for new files created? [11:31] how can i share ppp0 internet without network-manager? [11:31] If you are never going to be going to and sitting down at the remote box. I dont see the reason for having doing it that way. [11:31] Dr_Willis: it is over the LAN ....and yes, it is among one thing about training :-) ...so you get the picture. [11:31] corax: sry i've overseen the remote-pc part [11:32] llutz: no worries :-) [11:32] <|ns|nR8> julio, i use firestarter [11:32] corax: i have set up GDM sessions befor that just run a vncviewer :) that way i can sit at any pc on the lan and access the vnc desktop - I could sit at any of the other pc's on the lan and access the same desktop. at the same time even. [11:32] |ns|nR8, isn't that a firewall? [11:33] VNC is a fun toy to play with. [11:33] <|ns|nR8> julio, yes but has option to share internet connection aswell [11:33] nice [11:33] jagadish, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia [11:33] Dr_Willis: and yes you are correct ... I will be going to the workstation (or workstations) to work with them ... they may for an example have desktop-apps that need to be started on runned for a while, before I start working with the PC locally. For several machines, it a hassle to go to each an every PC, to log them on ...so an aletrnative would be nice. [11:34] Dr_Willis: explain plz ? :-) [11:34] corax: which part? :) Linux is like legos - build up what you want [11:35] Or Knex. [11:35] You could have eery student accessing the same vnc desktop if you wanted. [11:35] they all would see every change everyone did. [11:35] Dr_Willis: I know...and I love it ...the trick is to use as few pieces as possible....and to substitute with a Dublo-piece if possible ;-) [11:36] can anyone assist me with the instalation of nvidia 6200A agp === iceboxx_12 is now known as jagadish [11:36] greetings, I am new here and need some help with installing SSH server on desktop version of Ubuntu [11:36] xoe, "sudo aptitude install ssh" !

I going down to buy a new keyboard...but uhmmm the boss wants the computer to start a program, that takes 30 min. to initialise...about the same time it takes me to get the keyboard ...to not waste time, what do I do ? [11:38] jvainio: kyllä :) [11:38] totaam: with cp /home/ to /mnt/usbdisk1/backup [11:38] totaam: as sudo, of course [11:38] how can i install a webcam?

(and please remember that the old export DISPLAY=.0-trick still start a new session...its just an SSH-session, which means, when the SSH-client is down, so is the session...not doable) [11:42] corax: you can always ssh in and start up a new X session I guess. :) but ive not tried that [11:42] totaam: ok, thank you... I cannot know how to fix this thing.... [11:43] totaam: because for some reason, my machines perfomance has gone down to about 10% what it used to be... in one night! :D [11:43] jagadish: you get a black screen after splash? [11:43] make gdm start up x11vnc :) then you can vnc to the remote box and login.. (i wonder if thats doable) [11:43] !freenx | corax, maybe you want something like this? [11:43] corax, maybe you want something like this?: FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX [11:43] Dr_Willis: whatever I startup (new initializing) in the SSH session, will be alive only in the SSH session ...unless I write to something already started. [11:43] geirha: freenx dosent take over the remote desktop however does it? it makes it s own session [11:43] MaRk-I, no are some errors and then a sudden halt i have to reboot [11:44] Dr_Willis: Yes, it's own session, and you can disconnect from it (leaving it running) and resume later. [11:44] jagadish: did you check the cd for errors? [11:44] "No candidate version found for ssh" on "sudo aptitude install ssh", is rlogin going allow me to remote login to desktop version?

[11:45] we are overlooking the huge seucrity issues with having remote machines logged in unattended... [11:45] jagadish: do you get the boot options pressing shift? [11:45] I gotta run to the store. bye all. [11:45] Dr_Willis: Ah. If only there was a screen(1) for X :) [11:45] Dr_Willis: NX can be used to take over a desktop yes, but not by default [11:46] geirha: the tool I posted earlier kinda does this [11:46] geirha: thanx ... its seems like a good tool ... I will look into that ... however for now it doesn't seem solve the issue of starting a local session...that is visible on the local PC. [11:46] Hello, does anyoneo know why I cant shut down? I press the button and it doesnt do anything. I can shutdown with the terminal but the process goes up to a certain point and then locks up, and I have to shut down manually [11:46] geirha: that is x11vnc i think. [11:47] totaam: ahh. ive not used NX enough to ever tried that [11:47] the worst part is that it doesnt save any of the things I changed to my system and I'm trying to make syndaemon -d run consistently [11:47] I found NX a lot more complex for me to learn the VNC. [11:47] Dr_Willis: You need to use a wrapper (like the tool I posted above) to start nxagent in shadow mode from the command line [11:47] corax: I think NX can let you 'nx in' and see the GDM screen where you can login normally [11:47] |ns|nR8, installed but says eth0 isn't ready :S [11:48] Absolutely, that's why I wrote a wrapper, it's a nightmare otherwise [11:48] Dr_Willis: cool ...I will definetly try that then :-D ...THANX !!! [11:48] <|ns|nR8> julio, is network cable plugged in ? [11:48] corax: but as totaam said. it may take some work. [11:48] Dr_Willis: damn :-( ... I wanted a Dublo-piece :-) [11:49] damn [11:49] corax: actually if you dont use gdm at all.. you could ssh in and startx :) as the user.. and if set right. then exit the ssh session and leave X going. [11:49] corax: I haven't tried, but as long as you have root access, either NX or x0vncserver should be able to shadow any display [11:49] x0vncserver> thats a new one on me. [11:49] !info x0vncserver [11:49] Package x0vncserver does not exist in lucid [11:50] it's part of tigervnc, I've built packages here: http://shifter.devloop.org.uk/beta/ [11:51] yet another vnc variant. [11:51] afaik, the others are unmaintained [11:51] totaam: some of the solution I've been trying myself, included alternative VNC-servers ...however most conflicts with the one already installed for Ubuntu - Remote Desktop ...so it would be nice, if the solution had an alternative, that did _NOT_ include installing an "extra" VNC-server. [11:52] corax: nxagent/x0vncserver aren't going to replace your existing server (not the same as vnc.so module or Xvnc server), they will just shadow an existing X11 display [11:52] totaam: ok [11:53] they're called servers because, well, they serve the X display to the clients, but they're not driving your local display [11:54] hmm === cdoublejj_ is now known as cdoublejj [11:57] totaam: oh I know ... tightvnc and others conflicts with the standard packages in Ubuntu ... and some doesn't work unless I manually remove some packages. [11:58] totaam: that was why I was worried. [11:58] totaam: FreeNX included a RDP-proxy ... very interesting...maybe usefull in another "remote"-project I'm dealing with. [12:01] how come i cant move/resize with g-parted on my linux , but can on windows?? )same g-parted) === Nijverheid is now known as Guest57525 [12:02] trojan_spike: because those partitions are in use when you do it?

[12:17] are you serious? [12:17] studentz: iptables, needs a server right? [12:18] yep [12:18] i think i can find an old computer for a server [12:18] studentz, yes. deadly. unless nobarking is using a wifi access point that only routes through a linux box (or if the access point allows nobarking to install custom software) [12:18] but do i need two nic cards? [12:18] nobarking, yes [12:18] hey guys, /etc/bashrc is the system-wide bash config file, right? [12:18] Hello guys!! I've implemented a clustering project using kerrighed 2.4.1 and ubuntu 8.04..but the problem now is that i am facing problem in finding an application to test it's performance or it's working..So plss help me [12:19] nobarking, you'll also need a separate device for the wifi access point and internet access [12:19] malcolmci: yes [12:19] thanks again rww :-) [12:19] can i make my own wireless router with wireless nics and iptables on a server? [12:19] malcolmci: sorry, /etc/bash.bashrc [12:19] what type connection is needed to connect to internet through a wimax modem? PPP? [12:19] nobarking, i assume your internet access device is the same thing as your wifi device ? [12:19] well there's the modem [12:19] I knew that path looked a little short [12:20] then the wlan router [12:20] nobarking, are they the same device ? [12:20] nope [12:20] rww ah ok. thought it was a little weird that /etc/bashrc didn't exist, thanks [12:20] heh i need an old version of bunt for my lappy damn i wish I kept those cds [12:20] i was thinking of capturing the packets [12:20] and then going to my neighbor [12:20] and tell him i'll take him to court [12:20] nobarking, i would just check first to see if your wlan router allows you to whitelist wifi clients by mac address [12:21] How does one install an SSL certificate in ubuntu?

I am trying to recover data from an external drive using ddrescue however it appears it will not even mount. I presume it is because the HD is that knackered. Any ideas on recovering data?

[13:17] plz [13:17] geemee: with dd you dont need to mount the filesystem [13:17] 2days ago i have installed linux [13:17] am new [13:17] no [13:17] i dont [13:18] rob_p: because he's new to *nix and maybe even IRC pasting multilines [13:18] dont be hard [13:18] geemee: you normally 'dd' or 'ddrescue' it to a file on a different HD, then recovery data from that file [13:18] Dr_willis: ah.. didnt know that.. so what is the command to clone the hd? [13:18] Slifer: np [13:18] noahir: then feel free to search through https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/ for security updates. If you don't have specifics, I can't do it for you ;) [13:18] Slifer: SSH is a protocol used for secure access to a remote system's shell. I'm not sure you know what you want! [13:18] geemee: check the ddrescue docs. ive not used that. theres also the similer tool 'dd_rescue' or just the normal 'dd' command [13:18] rww: im talking about Ubuntu PAM local root [13:19] the synaptic package thing is being installed.. i'll wait for it to end then i will do the commands you guys have asked me [13:19] Dr_Willis: Thanks. Will google / man just now [13:19] geemee: with 'dd' it would be 'dd if=/dev/BADDRIVE of=Pickafilename bs=1024' or similer [13:19] noahir: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2010-July/001117.html [13:19] Slifer: putty uses ssh, just so u know its not something completely different [13:19] !ssh>Slifer [13:19] Slifer, please see my private message [13:20] geemee: also note you proberly want to dd the /dev/sdb1 or whatever /dev/sdXx it is. not /dev/sdb Unless theres more then 1 partition on the hd. You can dd the whole drive.. or just a partition. Its easier to work with a parittion [13:20] Slifer: I'm trying to save you some trouble. If you simply want to, "ssh into" another linux host from your linux host, you can do it with the included ssh client, right from the command line. [13:20] rww: aa so patched already [13:20] noahir: yes [13:21] Dr_Willis: This may be the problem. No /dev/sdXX listed. [13:21] Slifer: If your Linux host is the one that will be accessed remotely, then you will need to install the ssh server (openssh-server) package. [13:22] if hes using PuTTy he probably already has an ssh server setup (employer, coworker, friend, etc). at least that was the case for me when I didn't know SSH, but knew PuTTy [13:22] fr0stbyte: Tnx for your input. [13:23] geemee: replace XX with what you need.. :) [13:23] fr0stbyte: I just want him to clarify what he wants to accomplish. Until he does, we can only take guesses... [13:23] Dr_Willis: How can I confirm the number I presume it would be 1 since it is the only drive attached. === Nwab is now known as Benwa [13:24] geemee: sudo fdisk -l, or look in /dev/ to see what you got [13:25] geemee: 1 hd, first partition should be /dev/sda1 === SlidingHorn_out is now known as slidinghorn [13:28] Dr_Willis: Think I may have it now. DD is making the iso. Many Thanks [13:28] geemee: iso? you are rescueing a optical disk? [13:30] Dr_Willis: No. I am rescuing a external 2.5" drive (laptop drive in enclosure) just saving to iso so I can then copy to another machine then browse [13:31] geemee: err.. You dident just dd the hd to foo.iso did you? [13:31] Dr_Willis: Yep.. Why? [13:32] Dr_Willis: Following http://embraceubuntu.com/2006/01/21/rescue-data-from-failing-partition/ [13:32] geemee: you do realuize thasts not an ISO file? === pjarnahom is now known as pjarnahomzz [13:33] its not going to be readable as an cd.. its still a ext2/3/4/whatever filesystem [13:33] Dr_Willis: But surely I can mount / browse or use something like ultraISO (windows) to browse? [13:34] rob_p: i have done the sudo apt-get install putty [13:34] Dr_Willis: It will just be an image / ghost of the drive? [13:34] geemee: its not an ISO filesystem.. so i sould be suprised at ultraiso or whatever being able to read it [13:34] geemee: its a drive IMAGE - yes.. [13:34] you coudl then Burn it to a cd/dvd with a burner program. but you are making an iso with dd.. thats not going to be an 'iso9660' filesystem [13:35] Dr_Willis: It is processing just now, I will leave it and see what happens. If I have to will try another method [13:35] geemee: what filesystem is the HD? [13:35] DR_Willis: Unkown. I am presuming fat32. Its not my HD [13:35] geemee: Im suprised its going to fit on a single dvd/cd anyway :) [13:35] Im fully aware it wont fit on a cd/dvd. I can copy across network and hopefully open the iso [13:35] is it readable now? [13:35] geemee: you can mount the file after you have dd'd it to a file from linux. No need to use windows at all. [13:36] geemee: its just a 'file' its not an iso in any way shape or form. :) [13:36] Man, grub2 is giving me fits... :( [13:36] other then its name. :) [13:36] I will use ubuntu to open initally then will ftp to a windows share for the owner to collect. [13:37] sup grub2? [13:37] you could mount the file via the Loop feature of mount. then share the mountpoint. or copy the actual files to a cd/dvd/whatever. [13:37] hw can i access it now after doing the sudo apt-get install putty EgyParadox ? [13:37] that dd image will be the same size as the HD. [13:37] I can't seem to get grub2 to work at all with a software raid mirror [13:37] Dr_Willis@: that is what the guide says to mount via loop [13:37] half way there.

[14:02] IMAnis: if you 'sudo -s' to get root access. the prompt will change to have a # at the end by default yes. [14:03] Dr_Willis: he stated he was logging into irc with root account.. but i'm unsure if he meant root or a admin group enabled user [14:04] I am trying to run the banshee stream-recorder extension.

[14:05] but im just ask about haw dangerous is to run IRC chat in a root acount , i heard about the chat boot [14:05] AdvoWork: when you chose a program in synaptic, it will show you all the depends [14:05] AdvoWork: apt-get install -s php5-gd [14:05] J4ckst3r: it may only be me... but when I used wubi, it worked fine until I updated the xp side, then I could not boot linux [14:05] AdvoWork: -s == simulate [14:06] IMAnis: Don't IRC as root, a great deal of channels ban users who IRC as root.

[14:07] "Untrusted application launcher: The application launcher "Browse-Freenet-1278868750884.desktop" has not been marked as trusted. If you do not know the source of this file, launching it may be unsafe." - is there any way to fix this in our installer ? === Bhootam is now known as Kream [14:07] toad_: make it executable [14:07] or to e.g. prompt the user to trust it or not during the install process? [14:07] make the .desktop file executable? [14:07] toad_: yes [14:07] toad_: and dont ask me why the WINE stuff defaults to that 'executable is trusted' iea. [14:08] toad_: yes. its a little silly. expecially in how its worded [14:08] i don't see what wine has to do with it ... [14:08] it defaults to them NOT being executable by default so the user has to think/notice waht a program is.. instead of just seeing a new icon thats runable apearing - i guess [14:09] but i don't get it well , changing my account , i have to do it in the caht program or in the hole system , that mean loggin in with a nobody account for example ? [14:09] it mainly affexcts wine apps that get new icons on the desktpp [14:09] IMAnis: you manged to install ubuntu with only a 'root' user? How did you mange that? [14:09] IMAnis: You dont even want to get in the habbit of logging in as root directly.. login to the pc as a normal user. use root stuff as needed [14:11] speaking here about security ? [14:11] i don't even think of that [14:11] I just installed the banshee stream-recorder extension, and got this error, any ideas? http://paste.ubuntu.com/462529/ [14:11] hello guys, i uninstalled emraled and since them ubuntu is too slow. any suggestion? should i reinstall compiz? [14:12] hi all [14:12] abhi_nav: emerald is just a window decorator used by compiz. it shoudlent affect speed at all [14:12] jiohdi: It says it can't find /ubuntu/something/wubilbr.mbr [14:12] ping [14:12] abhi_nav: unless your removal removed other stuff as well [14:12] Hello I dropped my netbook on the ground, and the hard disk is corrupt.... :/ How can I run fsck to fix errors automatically (maybe on start up since its the only hard drive that needs to be mounted) [14:13] Dr_Willis, i removed it from synaptic and selected "Mark for Complete removal" [14:13] where do .desktop files get installed? the installer can add them for this user or all users but i doubt the latter works on linux ... it doesn't provide an easy way to +x them, but maybe we can do that in a script ... [14:13] eboyjr: you may want to setup a live flash drive some how - boot using that. and fsck/recover any data. that HD may be badly broken [14:13] Realy thank u Dr_Willis ! [14:13] eboyjr, oooo not sure about that one [14:13] toad_: a .desktop file could be anywehre. [14:13] eboyjr, its likely the disk is history [14:13] :( [14:14] Dr_Willis: coz_: Isn't there something in initramfs? And my hard disk is okay actually cuz I'm using it right now while IRC'ing... It's a sturdy netbook just maybe the power went out which caused the hd errors [14:15] wow I'm 39 male and some female in poland skyped me to talk about Twilight WTF? [14:15] toad_: most .desktop files are on ~/.config/autostart [14:15] darth_tux71, this is #ubuntu [14:15] darth_tux71: she thinks you're gay. [14:15] eboyjr: sudo touch /forcefsck will force a fsck at next boot. [14:15] bastid_raZor, lols [14:15] eboyjr, are you able to get the disk to spin? is it making any noise? have you run fsck? [14:16] eboyjr: head crashing into platters - bad karma :) You can fsck it if you want.. but its possible it may have future issues [14:16] hmmm [14:16] I'm having trouble with wubi. [14:16] om26er, yeah I am very aware of where I am but thanks for the clarification [14:16] eboyjr, mmm a dropped hard drive can be an untrustworthy disk... do you have files that can be backed up if so do that and reinstall [14:16] eboyjr: i always keep a flash drive with a rescue/restore/repair disrto on it. for such cases [14:16] Dr_Willis, should i reinstall compiz? [14:16] Pici: I have tried that but it just said check complete and starting booting normally.. I still see errors when I run fsck -n [14:16] eboyjr: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-force-fsck-on-the-next-reboot-or-boot-sequence/ [14:16] abhi_nav: go ahead. compiz wont speed things up. it just supplies the eye candy [14:16] I'm on ubuntu 4.10 and having openoffice writer crashes whenever I try to launch the bibliography manager. Any help? [14:16] abhi_nav: now if it removed yoru video card drivers.. THAT could slow things down [14:16] IMC_, 4.10????? [14:16] gelan: It runs fine I am using it right now actually. It reads fine.. for most things. I can't move the panels around though so maybe it can't right to that specific config file [14:17] 4.10 ? [14:17] omg.. [14:17] Dr_Willis, hmm ok [14:17] ok, ubuntu uses wheel grp or something, no root, now i've changed the permissions on chmod so its no longer suid, how can i fix it now that sudo wont run to allow chmod to fix perm on sudo ???? [14:17] I think he means 10.04/ [14:17] I did [14:17] toad_: a desktop file is just a 'definition' file for a launcher or other type entry [14:17] I sure hope so [14:17] lol [14:17] eboyjr, from a live cd run fsck/chkdsk based on your filesystems. [14:17] I'm on ubuntu 10.4 and having openoffice writer crashes whenever I try to launch the bibliography manager. Any help? [14:17] Dr_Willis: right, but how do we find it? [14:17] Dr_Willis, just before remoing the emerald ubuntu was running normally. after removing emarald ubuntu runs slowly. [14:17] toad_: i dont even know what you are really trying to do [14:18] * hotfloppy sweat.. can't take jokes like that.. you're bad IMC_ [14:18] :P [14:18] eboyjr, hope you have a backup of most of what is in there just in case. [14:18] our installer, izPack, creates .desktop files so there is a shortcut on the main application menu and on the desktop [14:18] unfortunately it doesn't make them executable, so they break on ubuntu with a warning [14:18] to fix this we need to find them ... [14:19] Dr_Willis: after changing sudo to not be suid, how can i fix it ???? [14:19] toad_: .desktop filse don't need to be executable [14:19] Now that I have the correct version of Ubuntu, nothing else is exciting about my ooo question? [14:19] can we be confident they will always be somewhere under .config ? [14:19] hi peeps i need some help [14:19] which command can convert swf video file to other video format? [14:19] MaRk-I: gelan: Dr_Willis: coz_: Thank you I'll fsck from a USB..and upload important files to my server. I hope it works... I can see if a complete re-format will work [14:19] !ask | eryn_1983 [14:19] eryn_1983: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [14:19] bastid_raZor: yes they do, otherwise we get "Untrusted application launcher: The application launcher "Browse-Freenet-1278868750884.desktop" has not been marked as trusted. If you do not know the source of this file, launching it may be unsafe." [14:19] Hello! Please, tell me a program for batch rename of files! [14:19] bouma: why are you even doing all this? You can use a live cd - and change themoded and stuff if you needed to [14:19] i would like to have two x sessions of the eryn user [14:19] slim1: ffmpeg and/or mencoder can do it [14:19] and i cant seem to get karamic to do that.. [14:19] toad_, .desktop files you said/ [14:19] coz_: hmmm? [14:20] i switched from gdm to kdm and now i can make it 'switch'user [14:20] Dr_Willis: thanks [14:20] Hello! is there a way to disable the keyring password? [14:20] toad_: if the user is running the installer.. make some script they can also run to set the mode. [14:20] IMC_: #openoffice.org may help if you do not get support. [14:20] thanks io [14:20] toad_, i thought you were the one asking where .desktop files were sorry [14:20] Dr_Willis: right, but first we need to find them! [14:20] toad_: mine aren't but if you say so. [14:20] yes we could patch izPack, but is there any easier option? [14:20] most .desktop files are locatated under /usr/share/app-install/desktop not all though [14:20] Dr_Willis: right, so i've got to boot into a live disc is it ?? i got into this, trying to change sudo so it would run without asking for a passwd, i know im doing it wrong but i wanted to be able to rightclick on a file and have it run the custom command; sudo nice --20 mplayer [14:20] Godfather8850: applictions -> accessories -> passwords & keys. right click on the passwords:login and change the password to be blank [14:20] any ideas on how to get this functuality back? [14:21] bouma: You do realuize that SUDO has config files to allow you to do 'sudo somecommand' without needing the sudo password? [14:21] hmmm there is a .menu file under .config which refers to the .desktop files ... [14:21] bouma: if you broke it.. a live cd can fix it. [14:21] I just installed the banshee stream-recorder extension, and got this error, any ideas? http://paste.ubuntu.com/462529/ [14:21] Dr_Willis: i do now, thanks. now to reboot to fix the suid flag on sudo .. if that is the only way.. cheers [14:22] bouma: or the reciovery mode might be able to [14:22] and here the others are in Desktop/*.desktop ... hmmm [14:22] Dr_Willis, thank you [14:22] Dr_Willis: that might save getting up to look for a cd. cheers [14:22] I bet "Desktop" is localised and configurable, and this is probably different on gnome ... :| [14:22] so basically our only reliable option is to hack izPack ? [14:22] toad_: if the program installed to the users Desktop. then the whatever.desktop is in their /home/USERnAME/Desktop/whtever.desktop === pjarnahomzz is now known as pjarnahom [14:23] Fl o od - 0Fl o od -

[14:26] come on guys there has to be way to fix this.. [14:26] eryn_1983: switch back to gdm then [14:27] then? [14:28] i have another question plz [14:28] What about? [14:28] i have been using mIRC client for the past 9years ( since i was on windows ) [14:28] Dr_Willis: what if they have a french install? [14:28] @Pici what then? [14:28] anyone know a command to find the name of the desktop directory ? [14:29] now that am on ubuntu, i need some other client ( not Chazilla - whihc am on onw ).. which clients will be suitable and compatible with linux plz ? [14:29] toad_, for .desktop files? [14:29] Slifer: try xchat or pidgin maybe :) [14:29] Slifer: There are plenty of clients... what sort of features are you looking for? [14:29] toad_: some of the utilities in xdg-utils (see http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/xdg-utils ) look useful [14:30] Slifer: xchat or for a command line program, irssi [14:30] rww: and they're installed by default? [14:30] coz_: yeah [14:30] * hotfloppy like pidgin for multi IM.. [14:30] toad_, /usr/share/app-install/desktop is the location of most of the .desktop files [14:30] toad_: in Ubuntu? yes [14:31] coz_: that implies the installer runs as root, we disalllow that [14:31] toad_, with sudo?? [14:31] and we need this to run on distros other than ubuntu as well... i guess on other distros we don't need to +x the .desktop files ... [14:32] How can I write to my ntfs-flashdrive? [14:33] Sorry for the noise folks. [14:33] running 10.4 and want a new user to have an encrypted home directory - I thought that I read that this was an option but I do not see it when I create a new user - how do I do it [14:33] Pici: all in a good cause :-) [14:33] what was all that noise about? [14:35] running into intermittent connection issues with RDesktop and MS Terminal Server in a load balancing configuration -- had no issues when they were connecting directly to a specific TS, only now that the load balancing has been enabled. Windows RDP clients have no issues. [14:35] How can I write to my ntfs-flashdrive? [14:37] I'm trying to run fsck on my presistent live usb stick, because i have some files that is not accessable because of "Stale NFS file handle. I did "mount -no remount, ro / && fsck /" and then i get fsck.aufs: not found [14:37] stix: did you mount it already ? [14:37] yes [14:37] <^Jay2^> hello everyone, how do you get your video card's temp? [14:37] hey guys, how would I go about launching gnome-terminal from the command-line to execute a particular command? I've tried the "-e" option, but if I do, say "gnome-terminal -e "echo 'hi'" it says "cannot create a child process" [14:38] stix: with ntfs-3g ? [14:38] *gnome-terminal -e "echo 'hi'" === Rez is now known as LoRez [14:38] hotfloppy, it was mounted automatically [14:38] Wait, now that command isn't even doing anything! [14:39] <^Jay2^> !lmsensors [14:39] To access CPU temperature sensors and detect fan speeds, install the lm-sensors package. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto for installation and usage instructions. [14:39] hi, I have a P7P55D-E mobo, and am affected by this bug : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/474359 (no sound input controls) ; the fix mentioned in the report didn't change anything. I'm about to install a newest alsa from source, could anyone confirm me the report's fix doesn't work ? [14:39] how do I cause a new user to have an encrypted home directory on 10.4? [14:40] Hi! Anyone know why, every time I try to go to "http://www.google.com" in Firefox, I get sent to "https://www.google.com"? [14:41] kwtm have you installed the new firefox addon that uses encrypted connections where possible [14:41] When inside GNU screen is there a way to get the current window title like you can get the current window number with $WINDOW? I'd like to have the current window title in my shell prompt. [14:41] malcolmci: you're doing it correctly, it's just that the new terminal terminates after the command is complete - try "gnome-terminal -e top" to see what I mean [14:41] MagicJ: That's the funny thing ... I installed it once (HTTPSeverywhere), didn't like it (I can't use SSL on Google shopping links) and took it out... but it's like the ghost lingers on. === emc_ is now known as emc [14:42] kwtm - I have seen other cases of addons not removing fully [14:42] MagicJ: I checked the .mozilla/firefox/ directory. I even RE-installed the plugin and then disabled Google... [14:42] kwtm - in fact, now when I test a new one I always do it in a virtual machine [14:42] how to convert swf to video (e.g avi) with ffmpeg or mencoder? [14:42] MagicJ: What do you think? Should I erase the entire plugins directory and just reinstall everything from scratch? Come to think of it, it might solve a few of my other problems. :P [14:43] slim1: You mean literally Shockwave files, .swf? Or Shockwave Flash .flv? [14:43] kwtm - I would not even hold my vreath for that one from what I have seen from BAD applications [14:44] kwtm: .swf [14:44] NigelS: Hmm ok. I have an alias set "update="sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade", and if I try "gnome-terminal -e update" it says "there was an error creating the child process for this terminal". Help? [14:44] MagicJ: Is it a Firefox problem or the extension? Or Ubuntu? I am getting less and less impressed with this Firebloatfox thing. [14:44] stix: actually, i dont have any experiences with flashdrive.. but as i google for your question, found this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount/USB [14:44] kwtm _ I believe a BAD addon === [SW]Dodge`oFF is now known as [SW]Dodge [14:45] slim1: As of 6 months ago there was no way to convert .SWF; I googled and went over forums. Unlikely something new has come up. SOrry to bear bad news. [14:45] kwtm: ..... [14:45] how can i find out what numeric value is represented by drwxrwxrwt ? ls -all for tmp shows that, trying to find out if its like 775 etc [14:46] malcolmci: Where did you set the alias? I can think of a few places where there might be problems. [14:46] MagicJ: Thanks for the advice. I'll call them: "badd-ons". :) [14:46] I'm having problems with my window manager. Intermittently, my desktop (although not the terminals accessed by ctrl-alt-f2, etc.) becomes extremely slow and unresponsive. Logging out fixes it (for a time) but a window does pop up during log out saying that Window Manager is unresponsive and, at which point I must "log out anyway", or whatever. [14:46] kwtm: /etc/bash.bashrc [14:46] AdvoWork: stat filename [14:46] <^Jay2^> is there anyway for ubuntu to check gpu's temp??? [14:47] lol @ kwtm - sad but true - it is WAY too easy to create one and noone really checks that they are not too naughty [14:47] malcolmci: 1) You want to check whether .bashrc is executed for a shell that's not login (ie. it doesn't actually give you a prompt); it might just execute .profile and that's it. Also 2) does gnome-terminal execute bash, or dash? [14:47] ^Jay2^, yes there is (if your card is supported) : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto [14:48] How can I fix these problems with my window manager? [14:48] my cdrom is not getting detected in lucid [14:48] kwtm: update works if I run it from an already-opened terminal. gnome-terminal executes bash. this "error creating a child process" occurs for commands other than "update" too [14:48] <^Jay2^> flupke: how do i check if my card is supported? [14:49] ^Jay2^, follow the procedure one the page I linked, if after that you see your GPU in the list of sensors of the app you use to read temps, it is supporte === r40 is now known as r40^away [14:49] <^Jay2^> ah its not [14:50] <^Jay2^> the only thing that i see is Adapter: Virtual device [14:50] <^Jay2^> temp1: +48.5°C (crit = +127.0°C) [14:50] cdrom is not wrking in lucid [14:51] kwtm: my mistake. If I run, say "gnome-terminal -x sudo apt-get update" it works fine. [14:51] Can I have some help with wubi? [14:51] kwtm: but "gnome-terminal -x update" prompts the error [14:51] ^Jay2^, it works for me with an nvidia card (8800 GT), but other drivers may not report temp [14:51] malcolmci: Right: so you want to know under what circumstance the alias doesn't work. [14:51] <^Jay2^> flupke: am using hd3450 [14:52] malcolmci: If you don't actually need to do this using the "alias" method, have you thought of using a script file instead? [14:52] ^Jay2^, I don't know for this one, all I can say is my experience with ATI cards has always been poor with linux/opengl [14:53] <^Jay2^> i see [14:53] malcolmci: E.g. create a file "#!/bin/sh""sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" and make it executable. Works same as alias as long as it's in the path, but slower by 0.5 seconds. [14:53] kwtm: i'll try it out, danke [14:53] malcolmci: Bitte sehr. Hope it works out. [14:54] unable to mount cdrom in lucid [14:56] shiftingcontrol: mounting it by hand fails? [14:56] Hi [14:56] How can I log in msn with empathy? [14:56] malcolmci: you can't string together commands with bash syntax there - to do what you wanted you'd need to use gnome-terminal -e 'sudo apt-get update' -e 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' [14:56] Dr_Willis:yep.error us "mount: can't find /dev/cdrom in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab [14:56] " [14:56] Hi, I m runnig a server program on the port 26000 but when I try to connect with another pc on the same lan say that is unreacheble and using ss -au to see udp connections I can see that the port is listening just in lookpack address === tony_ is now known as tbemus [14:57] shiftingcontrol: use the full syntax for mount. sudo mount /dev/cdrom /media/PICKSOMEDIR -t iso9660 [14:59] does open office have a thesaurus?

[15:02] !lamp | webdawg_ [15:02] webdawg_: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) [15:02] NigelS, kwtm: making a script in /usr/bin with the aforementioned commands and running "gnome-terminal -x /usr/bin/update" does the trick. Thankyou both :) [15:02] malcolmci: Glad ti worked out! [15:03] with empathy it says conntected but I can't see my contact.. [15:03] malcolmci: np :) [15:04] Can I have some help with wubi?

[15:14] askhader: sorry, I thought you where asking a question [15:14] ceases after some time [15:14] ikonia: quite alright? [15:14] J4ckst3r: if it's ubuntu related, go for it [15:15] ok [15:15] Should I replace windows completely with ubuntu? [15:15] J4ckst3r: that's just down to personal choice and need, no-one but you can really answer that [15:15] J4ckst3r: Definitely [15:15] Mhm, [15:16] I think my disk drive is nackered. [15:16] J4ckst3r: that has no relivence to either [15:16] I know [15:16] Just saying >_< [15:16] Would an external one work with ubuntu? [15:16] hello [15:17] nio707, whats your issue?

[15:18] technical difficulties ? ...nickserv is on the fritz? [15:19] i was making an linux os with ubuntu as a base and till now no system is develop to remove all the dev. tools [15:19] interesting i used to be anon , now it's all out there ...what gives? [15:19] How can I find out what files a user has opened last if he deleted the last opened files list? [15:19] i had only 8 mb of space [15:19] Is there any way? === veovis is now known as VeovisMuaddib [15:19] ssssss: not that i know of. [15:20] ssssss: unless you comapre the dates of all the files in his home. Which may or may niot be the 'accessed' date. but may be the 'creation' date [15:20] if i upgrade libx11-dev is there any sytem that tells me what files it replaced and upgrade [15:20] nio707, do you nead .deb file? [15:21] Dr_Willis, my girlfriend might have used my USB stick which has confidential data on it, if you know what I mean. [15:21] nio707: you can examine the contents of a .deb I use 'mc' to do it all the time. theres other ways [15:21] ssssss: Time to go buy a dozen roses. [15:21] no just the rdesktop1.6 file and the dependency so file [15:21] nothing much [15:21] Dr_Willis, seriously. How could I find out? [15:21] I just installed Ubuntu as my third OS (with Snow Leopard and Windows 7) and I installed GRUB to the MBR not knowing that it would interfere with rEFIt. How do I move GRUB to my Ubuntu partition and restore BCD (I think, the Windows bootloader) to the MBR? [15:21] It is important. [15:21] can i force a mount in my fstab to remount? [15:21] it's a nfs mount, and its unhappy :( [15:22] Wavesonics: theres the --remount option i thought. but NFS can be.. picky [15:22] has anyone used Ext2IFS in windows? [15:22] ssssss: very likely you cant. Check the files.. check their dates. that date MAY be the creation date. not the 'last accessed' date. [15:22] ssssss: If it was mounted as read and write, then you can generally look at the last accessed date in Properties [15:23] other than that, no real way [15:23] happyface: yes. It has worked.. but i am sure to always have windows 'unmount' any of the linux filesystems when i dont need them. [15:23] Aren't the files cached on her local home dir somewhere? [15:23] ssssss: why would a file on a flash drive get 'cached' on the home? [15:23] Dr_Willis: thanks, do you know if it can format drives to ext2 aswell? [15:23] it might be in her last accessed list.. but thats not caching them [15:23] someone know how to pack a theme for google chrome in crx format in ubuntu via terminal? [15:24] Hi .. anybody know any notification plugin for empathy .. So that whenever a new message in-comes it gets opened up in a new window ?? [15:24] happyface: no idea. [15:25] I've noticed that after about a week or so of usage when I lock my computer.. I can't unlock it by enterting my password into the screensaver lock, I have to switch user but switch to myself and authenticate that way [15:25] it claims authentication failed [15:25] Dr_Willis, I suppose cloaking is broken atm , correct ? [15:25] and Truecrypt only works for about a week before it fails to get administrator privileges for mounting drives [15:25] I'm assuming these items are tied somehow [15:26] "Not replacing deleted config file /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini" how can I solve this problem? [15:26] open the RPM and take out the php.ini in there [15:26] I've deleted /etc/php5/apache2 folder, but I want recover that [15:27] so I typed "dpkg-reconfigure libapache2-mod-php5" [15:27] BluesKaj: never noticed. i dont use cloaking. :) im brave!

[15:33] Like AIM.....etc. [15:33] wuione, use pidgin empathy or eva [15:33] malcolmci: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree. The 64-bit plugin that used to exist isn't on Adobe's website any more and has known exploited security vulnerabilities. [15:33] I'm chinese.But pidgin nothing..... [15:33] malcolmci: flashplugin-nonfree or you can get 10.0 with the 64bit flash PPA [15:34] malcolmci: I'm not an expert, but I'm given to understand that would be an #apt-get install flash-nonfree [15:34] !armel | armelques [15:34] wuione: what protocal do you use for chat?

It also handles the installation of 32 bit Flash quite nicely. [16:20] @stongo: I've been running 10.04 64-bit on my laptop since a few days after it came out and it's been very stable. [16:20] Not exactly "linux" related, but if I placed an external hard drive behind a 42 inch flat screen monitor, within inches of the wall; would it deplete the life of the hard drive due to the increased heat? [16:20] Unirgy: look in /etc/cron.d [16:20] kjele it says - options i915 modeset=1 [16:20] @stongo: I run 10.04 32-bit on my desktop and haven't noticed any difference between the two in stability or otherwise.

[17:38] Spaztic_One: if you are doing Network card to network card. You will need a 'crossover' cable. unless the nic's are gigibit. [17:39] yea i have it on chromium extension i was just wondering if i could make just a launcher for youtube alone to put in my panel [17:39] at least i think all Gib. Nics auto-crossover as needed. [17:39] shtower plus guest-additions [17:39] preecher: replacing firefox with chromium-browser works too [17:39] preecher, youtube is a website and needs a browser to see it, [17:39] oh ok [17:39] Dr_Willis: I thought most NICs would auto-detect and such anymore. [17:40] Spaztic_One: ive not bought a new NIC in ages.. most all my machines come ith them built in. :) so cant verify or deny that. [17:40] Spaztic_One: but I do belive the auto-detext Is a feature standard in GiB speed nics' [17:41] any application is available for twitter upload and read? [17:41] i have multisession disc but ubuntu reads only last session ...i have game on the other session please help [17:42] hwo do i use aircrack-ng? [17:42] Dr_Willis: Ah, ok. And yea, the NICs in both computers are built in, Lucid one is a laptop. Not sure the age of either at the moment. Laptop was bought used about 2-3 weeks ago, and I've had the tower for years (five or so seems about right) [17:42] Why might I experience display issues (flickering, lockups, white blocks) after taking my laptops display in and out of poweroff mode (closing and opening the lid, screen power off, not standby) [17:42] padhu: gwibber by default in 10.04, there are others in the repo too [17:43] padhu: click the envelope in your panel and go to broadcast [17:43] which software will read the other session for me [17:43] steven, this documentation should help you a lot: http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php [17:43] padhu: or Applications/Internet/Gwibber Social Client [17:43] james20, thanks [17:43] trism: unfortunately i am hanging with Ubuntu 8.10 [17:43] does anyone have any reccomendations for a kernel-supported PCI wireless card that supports a/g/n? [17:44] a/g/n but not b? [17:44] padhu: ahh, I don't remember when gwibber was added, and I can't check because 8.10 isn't supported anymore [17:44] which software will read the other session for me [17:44] i have multisession disc but ubuntu reads only last session ...i have game on the other session please help [17:44] another question i have is can i make a window/panel that will be on my desktop somewhere other than on the edge/border? kind of like a box on my screen with programs/launchers placed in it [17:45] trism: it's ok, i will try to discover one [17:46] Anyway, Dr_Willis, once I have a crossover cable, will they (or at least the Lucid computer) automatically start talking and making visible the shared folders? [17:46] preecher: theres numerous 'widgit/desklet' things thst can be placed anywhere. but i find them annoying [17:46] the ip 127.0.0.0 is home right? [17:46] where do I have to unpack a program to so it gets registered as programs I download via the packetmanager [17:46] Spaztic_One: You will need to either install a dhcp server on one box. or assign static ip's to each box. === PhilippeD_ is now known as PhilippeD [17:46] 127.0.0.1 is localhost [17:46] steven [17:46] thanks [17:46] Spaztic_One: then they will be networked. If they can ping each other.. they are networkded properly. Then you configure whatever services you want [17:47] Dr_Willis: They are both on the same wireless network already. Does this complicate things, make them easier, or not have any significant effect at all? === marcus_ is now known as marcus_Newbie [17:47] Spaztic_One: wireless is a whole different ballgame.. You never mentioned wireless. [17:47] Hi [17:47] Preecher, right click on one of the panels and select "new panel" [17:47] hey [17:48] Spaztic_One: still you would need a DHCP server. or set up static ips or some sort of ad-hoc network. (i think thats the proper term) if they can ping eacjh other. they are working [17:48] Dr_Willis: Yes, I know. Wireless is significantly slower and thus I am wanting to use the ethernet cable. [17:48] Spaztic_One: shouldent be too hard to get going. have windows box make a network. have linux box scan/connect to it [17:48] Dr_Willis: Ah, ok. [17:48] shtower ive tred that but they stay on the border [17:48] Can anyone help me with my 3 mobile internet dongle please? [17:49] Dr_Willis: Sounds good. Thanks.

[17:51] bullgard4: schemas are just templates for actual keys, they are generally imported when an app is installed, and a copy is added to /usr/share/gconf/schemas [17:51] where do I have to unpack a program to so it gets registered like a program I install via the packet manager? [17:51] hey all [17:51] din: that's not the way it work [17:51] is there a way to recover a folder once you have deleted it from deleted items? :/ [17:52] din: for a program to be in the package manager, it must be a package in the first place [17:52] din: otherwise, you can use "checkinstall" to pretend it is, but that's not guaranteed to work well [17:52] I somehow messed with my flashplugin installation, it used to work flawlessly (showing up in pulse and all), now I'm back to the oooold functionnality (pre 9.04 ...), when flash is playing it grabs the soundcard and no other app can play sound === marcus_ is now known as marcus_Newbie [17:52] so whats the directory for programs in ubuntu then? [17:52] Hello? [17:53] Hello Marcus [17:53] trism: Thank you for your general remarks. But I have put a specific question. [17:53] Hi [17:53] Could any of you please offer some help with 3 mobile internet dongles [17:53] fire away [17:54] anybody have a guide for lucid to make flashplugin play through pulse ?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [17:57] how to activate my xsplash [17:57] !server | rizzuh [17:57] rizzuh: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) - More info: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition - Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/ - Support in #ubuntu-server [17:57] im using my new ubuntu os [17:57] flupke: Install Flashplugin for Firefox from the repository http://packages.medibuntu.com/lucid free non-free [17:57] hi there [17:57] rizzuh: you can't just convert the Desktop version into the server version, also servers can run in the desktop version [17:58] i want to know [17:58] You surely can, it's just a bunch of packages; one is ubuntu-desktop another is ubuntu-server. [17:58] ubuntu51: Are you on 10.04? [17:58] yes [17:58] !info ubuntu-server [17:58] Package ubuntu-server does not exist in lucid [17:58] rizzuh: no according to that, there isn't a ubuntu-server package [17:58] Does Ubuntu 10.04 "Lucid Lynx" ship with the latest Catalyst 10.6 (fglrx) driver-packages already so that "Jockey" will ask me to install them once I try to install Ubuntu on a ASUS G73-JH with a Mobility Radeon 5870? [17:58] Hmm :| [17:58] rizzuh: server edition is basically just Ubuntu with a server specific kernel and no GUI [17:59] bullgard4, it's medibuntu.org [17:59] rizzuh: so you could remove stuff from your desktop edition, and such, but not sure if your whole system then gets the 5 years of support instead of the 3, if your on 10.04 I mean [17:59] thanks james28 but shtower is helping me out at the sec [17:59] there is any possibility to activate my xsplash [17:59] !lts | rizzuh [17:59] rizzuh: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04) [17:59] flupke: I do not know what you mean. [17:59] ubottu: Which version of Ubuntu are you on? [17:59] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [17:59] bullgard4, and they don't have flashplugin for lucid ... [18:00] ubuntu51: Which version of Ubuntu are you on? [18:00] sebsebseb, I don't need the support, this is just a VM, but I'd like to drop the Gnome desktop. [18:00] im using 10.04 ubuntu [18:00] Someone running the Catalyst drivers here? [18:00] !purekde [18:00] If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » [18:00] flupke, I have lucid with flash plugin here .. maybe I misunderstood you/ [18:00] rizzuh: I guess follow the above then or at least for the removing Gnome packages part [18:00] bullgard4, you linked me to a repos that doesn't exist anymore, and the correct one (medibuntu.org, not .com), doesn't have flashplugin for lucid [18:00] MINT has chat n help sec [18:00] is it available here?? [18:01] rizzuh: as for log in and such, after doing that, I guess you log in with the text thing, but not so sure [18:01] 10.04 is stable than 9.10 [18:01] !mint | sanjoy [18:01] Ahh nice, Lucid uses aptitude now. [18:01] sanjoy: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes. Please consult their websites for more information. Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), CrunchBang (support in #crunchbang), BackTrack (support in #backtrack-linux) [18:01] Okay, that's easy xD [18:01] !mintsupport | sanjoy [18:01] sanjoy: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu, please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [18:01] Does Kubuntu use pulseaudio? [18:01] coz_, I have it too, it's just that it grabs alsa, so if you launch say a youtube video, you can't play sound in other apps ; I'd like to route it through pulse [18:01] rizzuh: I haven't done it myself, but just a vm aye, for trying, so if it messes up on you, no big deal? [18:01] gregl: no, but 10.10 will [18:01] what do u mean by stable??? [18:01] gregl, no I believe its called "phonon" [18:01] maco: Oh no! [18:02] !mintsupport [18:02] Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu, please seek support in #linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org [18:02] i want to activate xsplash [18:02] ? [18:02] flupke, mmm ok I only use alsa so I cant help with that [18:02] maco: that seems to be an advantage for Kubuntu, how it does not use pulseaudio by default :) since the amount of issues Ubuntu has with it since 8.04 [18:02] ow [18:02] sebsebseb: new versions of qt work fine with it, and this gives plenty of time to prepare for 12.04 lts [18:02] sebsebseb, yeah, I'll take a snapshot so no big deal if it goes wrong. I can deal with the desktop, just wanted to shrink the memory and disk usage a bit (kinda low on the latter) [18:02] #/join #ubuntuforums [18:02] coz_, only alsa ? you mean you removed pulse ? [18:02] ok thanks..I don't want pulse audio..It adds too much latency to my media server. [18:02] sebsebseb: *shrug* ive used pulseaudio with kubuntu the entire time ive used kubuntu. ive not had problems [18:02] maco: its Ubuntu that gets the problems [18:02] gregl: ah you want jack if youre doing pro audio stuff [18:02] fine me a way to fix [18:03] my xsplash [18:03] Mythtv [18:03] ubuntu51: if you are on 10.04, yes xsplash is in the repo, but you can't just install and use it [18:03] I can't upgrade since update-initramfs hangs. I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 under VMware Fusion. [18:03] gregl: i didnt think mythbuntu had pulse... [18:03] My problem is similar to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1400954 === marcus_ is now known as marcus_Newbie [18:03] I'm trying to stream media from my UPNP server at home to my Ubuntu box at work. Is there an easy way for me to do this? I have tried Rhythmbox UPNP plugins with no success. [18:03] But there's no solution posted there. [18:03] ubuntu51: and Plymouth is very much so bundled into the system, its part of ubuntu-desktop for a start, and if you try to remove Plymouth, it will want to remove loads of programs you are meant to have installed [18:04] flupke, no I have a pro sound card I I have to compile the alsa driver specifically for that so although I dont remove pulse I dont use it for anything [18:04] maco: I don't use mythbuntu..It uses XFC for a windows manager and I think it's horrible [18:04] u mean u can change it [18:05] how u can identify stableness in 9.10 n 10.04 [18:05] coz_, I compile alsa too (newer via chips don't work out of the box), pulse works on top of alsa. [18:05] hi [18:05] by which basis? [18:05] ubuntu51: in fact someone has been working on trying to properly remove Plymouth from 10.04, because of issues that can happen with for example propritary Nivida or ATI drivers, and hes told me about his progress trying to do that here and there, and he can't do it properly at the moment, because of something. So basically stuck with Plymouth when it comes to 10.04, but can sort of disable it by using a text boot instead. [18:05] I need some help setting up my dual monitors in Lucid. Can anyone help me? I have an Nvidia Geforce gt320. One screen is 24inch acer, the other 15 inch LG. Proprietary drivers installed. help please :D [18:06] sebsebseb: you can work around by booting using the fb diriver :) [18:06] flupke, yes but pulse does not support my card so I have to have alsa [18:06] On the Appearance window I found a link for find more themes online. I clicked - and I found a sub category for changing the login window. Okay, I thought that got screwed up with the newer gdm, but whatever - trying to install it now. How would I install the .tar.gz I downloaded to apply a new login screen? [18:06] ActionParsnip: The fb driver ? [18:06] this xchat do not seem to be updating with your messages [18:06] i only see mine [18:06] fabio__: run: nvidia-settings ,its all there [18:06] coz_, pulse is not an audio driver, if your card is supported by alsa then pulse works with it too [18:06] Do you guys accept general linux questions? The people in the sabayon channel dont rly offer any help [18:06] sebsebseb: yeah, its the work around for poor res during bootup. There are guides all over [18:07] ActionParnsnip: i know, the thing is, it doesnt recognize my big screen. [18:07] how do I boot the installer into text only? I have an offsize touchscreen I need to use [18:07] flupke, yes I have heard that but I have already read that it is not supported under pulse [18:07] it shows there but it doesn't get that is has a bigger resolution than 1024x786 and that it's wide [18:07] ActionParsnip: as far as I know those work arounds don't always work properly. [18:07] ubuntu51: Why do you want xsplash anyway? [18:07] HexTasy: the alternate iso does that [18:07] flupke: May be reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu will help you. [18:07] sebsebseb: worked on all 4 systems I've applied it to [18:07] flupke, I can do withouth pulse here :) [18:07] oh it's a whole different iso? ok [18:08] heil hitler [18:08] ubuntu51: I used to think xsplash sucked when 9.10 was the latest Ubuntu, but now I think it is better than Plymouth in 10.04, sadly Ubuntu didn't do Plymouth as good as other distros. [18:08] -server [18:08] hi all, Actually i am @ root now and i cant see the volume applet working it seems, why is that when i click to check it gives me "Waiting for sound system to respond" i mean when i click sound prefences, please any suggestions ? i am new [18:08] Configuration Editor > /schemas/apps/gdm/simple-greeter/settings-manager-plugins/background/Name=active;Value=. What file sets the value of ? [18:08] ActionParsnip, since I followed your advice about the flashplugin packages (removed old configured packages, reinstalled flashplugin-nonfree), flash doesn't use pulse anymore, when it starts other apps (pulse included) can't play sound anymore [18:09] i had to a flash plugin from some other repo [18:09] On the Appearance window I found a link for find more themes online. I clicked - and I found a sub category for changing the login window. Okay, I thought that got screwed up with the newer gdm, but whatever - trying to install it now. How would I install the .tar.gz I downloaded to apply a new login screen? [18:09] then i could lcik buttons [18:09] shows up in pulse [18:09] if i wanted to update a package to a newer version of whatever program it is and contribute it to the apt package list would it be possible to do that? [18:09] flupke: there's a pulse-alsa package you can use.

Not complicated at all [18:21] Hey. [18:22] there should be linux software there was on mine, just trying to get the folder mounted now [18:22] On the advice of some folks here, I installed apt-cacher-ng. It works, but I'm haivng memory problems with it. [18:22] ActionParsnip: well it seems that he got loads of resolutions [18:22] After a very short amount of time, it's eating up _all_ the memory on the box. To the point that I can't always su even. [18:22] It lets me use internet just fine [18:22] <|jonathan|> help me [18:22] sebsebseb: the hwinfo isn't really needed if you know the native res of your display [18:23] <|jonathan|> what is standard install [18:23] <|jonathan|> plz tell me [18:23] back [18:23] oh [18:23] jonathan: what do you mean ? which installation ?

Also it helps if you give a fuller explination of what you need help with.

[18:25] its easy [18:26] |jonathan|: Open up the ubuntu software center, and type in "restricted extras" in the search box. Hit enter, select "Ubuntu restricted extras" click the install button.

[18:29] rnddom: It's all under grub.conf/ I believe. And trust me, it's nowhere near systemv. 'buntu is it's own thing. [18:29] trism; ow do i do tht pls? [18:29] --------------> I'm asking again! Is someone using the Catalyst 10.6 drivers? [18:30] how do i search for a specific program? apt-cache search only searches the info, not each filename [18:30] ddavids: Applications/Accessories/Terminal, then type: rhythmbox; and enter [18:30] kermit: apt-file is handy for that [18:30] !info apt-file [18:30] apt-file (source: apt-file): search for files within Debian packages (command-line interface). In component universe, is optional. Version 2.3.3 (lucid), package size 29 kB, installed size 184 kB [18:30] kyle_, Sure, but hwo do I change the default boot option?

[18:31] kermit: aptitude search porgramname [18:31] kyle_, It's a series of long and ugly shell scripts - I don't see any easy way to tell it which os to boot [18:31] do you not have a folder named linux software on your dongle then ? [18:31] !grub2 > rnddom [18:31] no [18:31] rnddom, please see my private message [18:31] trism: what do u make of that message? [18:32] rnddom: do you have a file at /etc/grub/grub.cfg [18:32] ddavids: that doesn't seem like it should cause rhythmbox to crash, so probably not that useful [18:32] rnddom: Sorry, /boot/grub/grub.cfg [18:32] Marcus [18:32] check out here http://thelittleglasskiln.co.uk/blog/?p=42 [18:33] kyle_, Yes sir, I do.

I'd greatly appreciate any help you can give in promoting this. [18:33] Hi folks, I experience difficulties around file transfer via bluetooth from a phone. Is there a way I can restart that obex environment on my Ubuntu machine? Thanks a lot! [18:33] kyle_, It actually looks like the old config file I'm used to, but it says in big letters at the top not to edit the file. [18:33] would that work? Is it compatable with my dongle? [18:33] besogon: that doesnt search filenames, just the info/description of packages [18:33] trism: what else can i try, banshee also crashes while working (it would play some tracks and crash on others) im stuck wt vlc for playing my music library and i wld prefer rhythmbox [18:34] rnddom: also bookmark this Good Grub2 guide from the forums ----> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275 [18:34] rnddom: If it's like mine, it tells you that it's generated by grub-mkconfig. [18:34] well im not sure as the software came on mine its a Three Dongle [18:34] kyle_, Yes sir, it does indeed. [18:34] kermit: he said he looked for program searcher not for file searcher [18:34] couldnt hurt i suppose, how big is it [18:35] 7.9mb [18:35] Cool [18:35] rnddom: you should have /etc/default/grub file either [18:35] how you wanna transfer [18:35] Bluetooth: Would it be recommended to unplug my dongle and replug again? [18:35] rnddom: if you want to change the default grub entry see --> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1302743 [18:35] hi peoples... i have a little problem with one of my partitions... There was a windows 7 installed with 3 partitions. 1 of them i used to install Ubunto, the second was the Windows 7 system, and the 3rd was that with all my data on it. The problem: I see only data on the two first partitions, the 3rd with about 200GB data seems to be empty (i only see there the "recycle bin" and the "System Volume Information" folder of the windows...... anybody s [18:35] ome idea how to recover? [18:36] do you have MSN account ? [18:36] no [18:36] rnddom: From what I"m seing, grub-mkconfig will run the scripts in /etc/grub in order. So you need to make a boot-script for that OS in /etc/grub.conf [18:36] or ubuntu one [18:36] rnddom: Sorry grub.d Ugh. Switching between too many boxes. [18:36] i could just email you it [18:37] Guest36650: Possibly boot from a linux live cd and check again. Not sure that changes anything. [18:37] when i right ckick on your name i get an option to send you a file, would that work? [18:37] kyle_, ugh, that sounds like a lot of work! [18:37] rnddom: See how there's a 10_linux in there? Copy it to 11_freebsd, edit it, and then freebsd will be the second choice. Or name it 09_freebsd, and freebsd will boot by default. [18:37] oh well ill try that ! [18:37] Is someone using ATI Drivers? [18:37] rnddom: Welcome to ubuntu, where if you want to do what it wants, it's easy, but want make a change, you've got to do more work. [18:37] kyle_, Ahhhhh.... the ordinal numbers preceding the script names correspond to their menu entry? [18:38] yes need to try it. problem is, can't start windows 7 anymore..i've erased a 1MB partition which wasn't used i thoght, but was maybe some of windows 7 configurations...don't know this system... [18:38] rnddom: Yes. Thank you :) I wasn't explaining that well. [18:38] you getting that ? [18:38] kyle_, 'cause it looks like single scripts are generating multiple entries... i.e., one to autofind all linux kernels and make an entry for each [18:38] ddavids: not sure what else to try, seems like some kind of rhythmbox bug, but I don't know why banshee would be crashing too; you could try exaile, but that is more of a workaround than a solution; may want to check out the rhythmbox bugs on launchpad and see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/+bugs [18:38] can anybody tell me some ubuntu account like xfce and lxde.... to be fast !!! [18:39] rnddom: one script can generate more then 1 entry in the grub menus. - What exactly are yoy trying to do with Grub2 ? [18:39] Yea, I think that's the osprober script. So it will try and show you everything that's on there. But if you manually create your own, then you can force the order (or make it the default). [18:39] kyle_, And the suggestion that Willis keeps spamming only instructs you to use a different ordinal number... if they vary dynamically, I don't see how that will help [18:39] trism: guess wht i used sudo and i'll paste the output on pastebin [18:39] Dr_Willis, I'm simply trying to change the default boot choice [18:39] what is faster then lxde??????????? [18:40] is in my download manager but not transfering [18:40] ddavids: you really shouldn't run rhythmbox with sudo [18:40] rnddom: I let it only show like 3 kernels, so windows is always #4 here [18:40] rnddom: sudo update-grub2 and change /etc/defuault/grub file [18:40] Is there a package for Perl 5.12 on lucid? [18:40] Anyone on Bluetooth: How to check the actual state of what is happening? Log-file? [18:40] rnddom: From what I can see, the way you do it is to create your own boot script, lower than 10, and re-run the grub-mkconfig or whatever it's called. [18:40] what is faster then lxde ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????/ [18:40] you don't hear me..., rnddom [18:40] Configuration Editor > /schemas/apps/gdm/simple-greeter/settings-manager-plugins/background/Name=active;Value=. What file sets the value of ? [18:40] bjegovic: One ? is sufficient, thanks. [18:41] Dr_Willis, Is that more effective than just renaming your windows detect script to have a number lower than 10? [18:41] trism: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/2cLfErBp [18:41] rnddom: you could put the osprober befor the linux kernel entries also. that would keep windoes befor them all. [18:41] besogon, I'm sorry, new IRC client and I'm having trouble with the colors [18:41] why is that then ? [18:41] Hi, I am trying to setup git on my ubuntu, I have a public key and openssh-server installed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Git But I am unable to understand what to type for the server part in setting up git and project management...what server is it talking about ?

[18:41] im the one with newbie in my name [18:42] ill try again [18:43] Dr_Willis: thanks! [18:43] rnddom: you should change the file I mentioned and run update-grub2. But you can use not only numbers in boot sequence but the boot names of OS [18:43] rnddom: also checcking the docs. it seems you can set the 'default' entry based on its name. Not just its #. [18:43] rnddom: exzmple they give in /etc/default/grub -> grub-set-default "Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.32-15-generic" [18:44] Dr_Willis, But there isn't a static name for the OS I want to boot as far as I can tell... it's generated from the prober script [18:44] check private win [18:44] rnddom: once it generates you can see what name its using. [18:44] Boy, old grub was sure a lot easier [18:44] rnddom: i missread the docs. theres a command to do it. sudo grub-set-default "whatevername" [18:45] rnddom: what os are you wanting to set as the default? [18:45] ddavids: yes I am looking, hmm, can you go into gconf-editor, navigate to /apps/rhythmbox/plugins/umusicstore and uncheck active [18:45] Is LILO still an option? My distaste for GRUB is growing [18:45] After installing Ubuntu 10.04 and having performed all the updates I attempted to plug my head phones and mic into my PC. The head phones and mic did not capture the sound in the system and my normal speakers continued to function. How would I set up my system to allow me to switch between hp/mic and regular speakers? [18:45] sebsebseb: all fixed? [18:45] Lokote, Is it a shared jack on a laptop? [18:45] ddavids: then try rhythmbox again [18:45] It is a desktop PC made by Gateway. The jack is located on the front of the system. [18:45] rnddom: For changing the default OS I think startupmanager does the job [18:45] I'm shopping for a new video card, which chipsets have better compatibility with ubuntu, nvidia or ATI? [18:46] trainer: nVidia [18:46] trism: done, now lets see [18:46] philinux, Thank you, Phil. That may be the "easy" option I'm searching for. [18:46] philinux: ive had startupmanager also 'break' the grub config. So use it with caution [18:46] trainer: i'd shoot for nvidia 100% of the time [18:46] hi, I need a hand with setting up my network settings [18:46] you ren bu [18:46] trism: no luck, but do i need to logout and log back in? [18:46] Aye, ever since 9.10 or so, I've had nothing but trouble from Grub [18:46] Dr_Willis: I only have ubuntu on this machine lol [18:47] profxavier: what do you need help with? [18:47] Rnddom: you can edit /etc/default/grub the default is set there. You will need to run: sudo update-grub ,after editting [18:47] ddavids: no, shouldn't matter, try running: rhythmbox -d; and pastebin the output [18:47] I have a rhythmbox issue where if I import music my system locks up and I need to cold shutdown. I'm pretty sure it's either a meta tag or codec issue... Wondering if anyone else has had this problem and know a fix. [18:47] Argh! Could someone help me I've accidently sudo dd'd my windows boot sector === robin is now known as Guest49510 === Sorell is now known as Sorrell [18:47] philinux: at least i justlearned about a new command for grub2 --> sudo grub-set-default "Windows Vista (loader) (on /dev/sda1)" [18:47] Edo: can you not restart x with the shortcut [18:47] ActionParsnip, There are no entries in my /etc/default/grub file [18:47] You ever work in a place with IMMOVABLE policies regarding I.T. ?? I've been having a good time setting up Ubuntu and "doing stuff." Now the Security and Compliance team are upset because I have not installed anti-virus software on my Ubuntu machines. WTH? [18:47] evenin' all [18:47] philinux: now windows is the default. :) if i wanted to reboot to windows. i could sort of make a script for that. [18:47] i have Ubuntu running in a VM, the host and VM both have the IP 192.168.0.199. When I attempt to change the IP of the VM, it doesn't apply, how can I setup my VM to just grab another address [or should I just have it set to automatic, rather than static] ?

Any chance I can find an authoritative article for these "certified" security professionals to choke on? [18:49] philinux: thats one i pasted earlier I think. :) [18:49] kyle_, Thank you for patiently walking me through the reasoning [18:49] I'm sorry, I may have an inappropriate attitude. [18:50] philinux: i got most of them bookmarked on my Delicious account http://delicious.com/dr_willis/grub2 [18:50] cixa, sudo service dbus start [18:50] Edo: re-enable ctrl+alt+backspace in keyboard settings.

[18:51] ActionParsnip, I did use the Netowkr Manager, but it doesn't show the changes I made... [18:51] philinux, test your ram using the memtest86+ option when you first try to install from the cd [18:51] philinux, bad ram would be the first possibility to eliminate.

I'm reburning a new iso [18:52] sprung: I pulled both sticks and reinserted twice [18:52] Ive seen windoqws XP run with ram that was definatly bad... still not sure how it did it.. :) [18:52] philinux, Just because your windows xp isn't complaining doesn't mean you don't have bad ram. also verify the cd media too before installing to test for burn errors. [18:52] profxavier: could change you host ip to static then get updates then reboot the guest, then set the host back to dhcp [18:52] It would just crash a 'little' more often [18:52] trism: have u seen it? [18:53] philinux, That means nothing. [18:53] philinux, You need to run a memory test. [18:53] sprun media verifies on this pc but shows one error on the compaq [18:53] Is it true that if I don't run WINE then I'm pretty safe from bad things? [18:53] use memtest86+ [18:53] Ive had memory slots go bad - and the chips ere good. === 31NAA4S8F is now known as sjefskode_ [18:53] RobC0: even using wine. you are decently safe. Unless you purpously run malware in wine. [18:53] i mem test every 100 days [18:53] I'll run memtest overnight [18:53] i've lost data to ram with a failing bit [18:53] RobC0: you are pretty safe anyway. Wine apps can be infected but that's all that will be hit [18:54] Any one know how to set up the microphone and sound output jack on a desktop PC? I have sound from my speakers, but not from the frontward facing jacks I use to hook my headset up from. [18:54] philinux, it is also likely your cd has a media write error. Verify the media before installing. Yes, it takes a few extra minutes but troubleshooting takes a lot longer. [18:54] hello, sudo service dbus start didnt work, sorry i had to reboot [18:54] ddavids: yes, that seems to be failing really early, very odd [18:54] K, on a semi-related issue: What is Damn Vulnerable Linux? Should I play with that? [18:54] RobC0, NO. YOU SHOULD NOT. [18:54] LOL [18:54] Is there a solution for the CLEAR USB (Motorola w100) problem with Ubuntu? [18:54] DVL? [18:55] (runs, hides in corner) [18:55] sprung: media verifies on this pc but shows one error on the compaq [18:55] Not heard of that RobC0 sounds a bit pointless [18:55] once again, the error i get with connecting with a server in nautilus is: DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus) [18:55] leave it to the linux community to think of anything and everything to use linux for :P [18:55] RobC0, Damn Vulnerable Linux is a distribution that is intentionally completely absent of any security whatsoever. It is designed to test security exploits. It is made to be hacked. [18:55] can anyone help me? [18:55] RobC0: sure you don't mean damn small linux? [18:55] If i'm having trouble mount a hard drive on my computer, what channel should i go to for help? [18:55] hi guys. i have a wifi card- sveon brand. i notice my wifi goes much faster with windows than linux. doe sanyone know why? [18:56] Andy__: you don't mount drives. You mount partitions [18:56] Thinking if I can become familiar with possible attack vectors, I'd be better prepared to explain to Sec&Comp why Linux is not Windows.. [18:56] Andy__: if its under ubuntu then you are in the right channel [18:56] Lokote: Possibly there is also a graphical app that does that better, but try alsamixer in a terminal. But be careful, can cause trouble [18:56] trism: any ideas? [18:56] ok so here is my problem [18:56] philinux, if it shows an error, maybe it's a bad cd, or maybe you have a bad cdrom on the compaq. Reburn. [18:56] What is it andy!? [18:56] ddavids: perhaps try: mv ~/.local/share/rhythmbox ~/.local/share/rhythmbox-backup; that should cause rhythmbox to create a new library, and perhaps start correctly (you can always move it back later) [18:57] Fabio__: company's support windows more as it generates more revenue [18:57] RobC0: ##linux or ##security would be the best place to discuss this, as this isn't really Ubuntu related. [18:57] Thanks Pici [18:57] Geolr: I tried opening Preference>Sound and it does not even show a microphone jack under hardware. It just shows my USB webcame. [18:57] sprung: k3b is in action as we speak [18:57] philinux, You could still have bad RAM but things are starting to point to a bad cd or bad cdrom. [18:57] Fabio__: you may have a firmware file you need to download. Reboot and run: dmesg | less ,see what's going on [18:57] I bought a new hard drive for my tower and i want to pull all my old doc and media off of it but when i go to the folder in places it says it is lost. [18:57] trism; do i sudo that [18:57] whats dmesg? [18:57] ActionParsnip: just gave it a shot. System lockup completely. ctrl+alt+backspace does nothing. [18:57] ddavids: no, it is in your home folder [18:57] fabio__, man dmesg [18:57] trism; shld i just run that and try t=rhythmbox again [18:57] k [18:58] sprung: maybe compaq dvd burner needs optical clean. I got it given and not been used for 9 months [18:58] ddavids: yes, rhythmbox -d; [18:58] Andy__: run: mount; sudo fdisk -l ,you will see what's mounted etc [18:58] fabio__, http://www.linfo.org/dmesg.html [18:58] Lokote: yes, i tried here as well. alsamixer is closed by pressing the escape key, if you'd like to try. But I'll search a bit. [18:58] trism: ok [18:58] Fabio__: it displays the kernel messages [18:58] !mount | andy__ [18:58] andy__: mount is used to attach devices to directories. See also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mount [18:58] ahhh. so how is that supposed to make wifi work faster? [18:58] ActionParsnip: it seems to kill the OS at the core [18:58] philinux, possibly. If you moved it around you may have jarred it and broken something too. cdroms are cheap though [18:59] Is there a way to get the Motorola w100 wimax stick to work on Ubuntu? [18:59] ok one sec [18:59] trism: same output...so i didnt bother pastebin [18:59] ActionParsnip: I've tried reinstalling rhythmbox, and some codecs, but I'm not sure if I got them all [18:59] fabio__, it's not that it'll make your wifi run faster, but it'll diagnose via plain text messages what is going on, in which case a user here might be able to read the output and understand if the wifi card is acting "out of line" [18:59] Geolr: Appreciate it. I have alsamixer open right now. I have a item called "Headphone" but when I try to raise it up, it doesn't do any thing. [18:59] Faboi__: if you need a firmware file and you don't have it it will affect performance [18:59] hi [18:59] hello [19:00] philinux, the last thing I might recommend is try burning the cd at a slower speed than whatever k3b says is Max. I have a burner and the system thinks it burns at 14x and it really only burns at 8x [19:00] i have windows and ubuntu but i dont see the grub [19:00] fabio__, it's the first step to troubleshooting, more or less. These users are here to help, so if you run that command as directed by ActionParsnip and report it back here, we might be able to move forward. :) [19:00] how i could figure out that [19:00] "#lug-jaipur" [19:00] ahhh. ok thanks :D is the reboot necessary? [19:00] sorry ActionParsnip, I was afk [19:00] Lokote: check if is says MM at the base of that column. [19:00] Edowardo: all I can suggest is log a bug. Use a different player. There may be a ppa with a newer version. [19:01] ActionParsnip, so its not changing because I need to apply the system updates first ? [i believe thats what you are trying to say...] [19:01] no one? please help with my nautilus error! [19:01] Geolr: I upped every thing, and now I have sound coming from my headphones. How ever, I still have sound coming from my main speakers as well. Is there no way to get the sound to be "captured" by the headphones on plugin? [19:01] ActionParsnip: I'll do just that. Thanks. [19:01] cixa, Did you do what I told you to do? [19:01] cixa, sudo service dbus start [19:01] cixa, then try again [19:01] profxavier: if there is an identical ip on your lan then routing will fail [19:02] Lokote: hm, should be somehow. But I don't know about it. Check the forums maybe. [19:02] I asked this on #OOo a few minutes ago, but without answer. I'm trying again here. In OpenOffice.org Calc, when I paste selecting an entire column (clicking on a column header) it takes ages to complete (if it does not crash). I think it's because it is pasting the data up to 2^24 rows or something. Is there a way to prevent this behaviour? (OOo3.1.1/Ubuntu 9.10). I've not found anything searching the bug tracking system about this issue. [19:02] ddavids: okay, I'm really not sure then, other than filing a bug against rhythmbox...did you recently change your theme before rhythmbox stopped working? [19:02] trism: yes [19:02] profxavier: you could also ask in #vmware #vbox depending on the technology you used [19:02] Geolr: Thank you very much for your help. I will look into joining the forum. Thanks again! [19:03] trism: i have been trying out different themes in the last few days... [19:03] i have a apple ipod shuffle that does not work with gtkpod every tile i try to load it...it pops up a warning message stating something about itunes database ...........plz hlp [19:03] cixa, Do you acknowledge that you read what I typed? Reply. [19:03] Baol: try installing 3.2 it may be a bug which has been fixed [19:03] Lokote: hope that helped :-) My alsamixer has also one column for "front"... Anyway if it says MM than its muted, press m to change it. Good luck! [19:03] trism: but why wld a theme affect a music player(s)? [19:03] ddavids: could you try changing it back and starting rhythmbox...I kind of doubt it will help, but it is my last idea (without debugging rhythmbox to see where it fails) [19:04] ActionParnsnip, any solution without touching the box I use for work? [19:04] ActionParsnip, something I can do as a normal user? [19:04] ddavids: if the theme is corrupt and the OS tries to use it to draw the interface it may cause issues [19:04] trism: wow, thanks but i have changed it a number of times and it didnt help [19:04] ddavids: well, it crashes before it creates the rhythmbox shell (according to the debug output), so my thinking is it crashes because it sees something it doesn't like in the theme...but again, I'm kind of doubtful it would help at this poiknt [19:04] cixa, Did you read what I told you to do, or not? [19:04] sprung: It's a compaq S5200UK [19:04] Baol: you will need to add a ppa so sudo can be used (and gksu / kdesu) [19:05] sprung: yes i did, here is what i got: Job already running [19:05] * sprung sighs [19:05] ActionParsnip, sudo is an admin thing. I have no root rights on the machine [19:05] cixa, I could have saved you a lot of time if you had just told me that. [19:05] sprung: sorry [19:05] sudipta: it should work install gtkpod-aac.. [19:05] cixa, what's the error you are getting? [19:05] ActionParsnip: how do i revert the theme then apart from System>Appearance cos i have done that...? [19:06] i did mesg [19:06] sprung: 'Could not open location xxxx DBus error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus)' (where xxxx is my server) [19:06] ddavids: you can hack at the config or just rename the rhytmnbox config folder and you will get a vanilla one [19:06] wlan associated etc direct probes [19:06] Hi which video cards have better compatibility with ubuntu, nvidia or ATI? [19:06] ddavids: oh, one other idea would be to create a new user and see if rhythmbox runs for them, that would indicate a configuration problem, although still a bug since it shouldn't crash because of it [19:06] ActionParnsnip: wlan0: no IPv6 routers present etc [19:06] Baol: are you not a member of the admin group? [19:07] trainer: nvidia [19:07] trainer: nvidia has better compatability I'd say. Nvidia wrote their own driver for ubuntu [19:07] cixa, sudo service dbus stop then sudo service dbus start then try running nautilus again. [19:07] ActionParsnip: i wish i knew what to hack at the terminal as im willing to try... then vanilla? [19:07] Fabio__: disabling ipv6 will stop that [19:07] ActionParsnip, its a computer in the university, I'm not the sysadmin of the network === WarrenSH is now known as [d-_-b] [19:08] <[d-_-b]> :) [19:08] i use firefox latest stable version. from settings application tab i changed the png format to ask me what i want to do when i open a png file from firefox. but even i did this firefox opens png files automatically on a new tab of firefox. can you please help me abut this issue ... ? === [d-_-b] is now known as WarrenSH [19:08] ddavids: hunt around your home folder for rhythmbox stuff [19:08] trism: i'll try the new user thingy ryt away but wont the cinfig be the same? [19:08] baol: ahhh I see === WarrenSH is now known as [d-_-b] [19:08] * sprung facepalms [19:08] why do people connect to support channels using tin cans and string [19:08] Baol: i'd let them know as well as tell them of the 3.2 release [19:08] ddavids: the config should be a stock ubuntu one, without anything you may have customized for your user [19:08] thank you ActionParsnip. You mean my wifi will be fast as in Windows? How do i disable ipv6 [19:09] ActionParsnip, not a solution for me [19:09] ActionParsnip, thank you anyway [19:09] sprung: didn't know you could ;) [19:09] ActionParsnip, figure of speech [19:09] Fabio__: not sure, may help. I'd see about the firmware though [19:09] sprung: I guessed. Hence ;) [19:11] fabio__: I'm not intend to afraid you but it seems that ipv6 is compilled in the kernels [19:11] besogon: you can disable it with boot options [19:11] ok [19:12] can anyone provide me with the exact command i need to use with nmap that will tell me the status of every port on computer on the same wifi address, if i know the local ip. This is so i can check my network security [19:12] the speed seems to be going fast now thanks [19:12] sprung: are you here? [19:12] maybe i was just too impatient lol i had just intalled ubuntu [19:12] cixa, sudo service dbus stop then sudo service dbus start then try running nautilus again. [19:12] thanks guys :) [19:12] cixa, Tell me what happens. [19:12] sprung: yes well i did that, and i had to reboot cos my system just hung [19:12] sprung: i am on maverick btw [19:12] hi [19:12] anyone know about differentiating between a trackpad and a trackpoint? [19:12] i have a new thinkpad [19:12] ActionParsnip, are you at least sure it's a bug that is solved in 3.2? If I go and ask the admins to upgrade and it does not solve the problem it would not be too easy for me to ask anything else in the future!" [19:12] i can now go into my old hard drive through places, but now when I got to the folder to open it I can an error saying "the link access your private data.desktop is broken. move to trash? [19:13] and i am trying to disable the touchpad and just the the little red dot [19:13] gdoteof1: what kind? [19:13] t410 === mjpm is now known as Guest76031 [19:13] Mjiig: #nmap [19:13] cixa ^^ [19:13] Baol: not sure but keeping up with updates helps to fix issues [19:13] okay thanks [19:13] ActionParsnip, this does not answer my question in any way, but thanks again [19:14] cixa, if you are on Maverick I think you're supposed to be in #ubuntu+1 [19:14] cixa, this channel is intended for the Lucid build [19:14] i installed fluxbox, how can i go to synpatic ??????? [19:14] Baol: I don't know the app to that level of details. Why not check the changelog to see for yourself [19:14] what else i need to do to enable proprietary drivers ? it's enabled but not in use. (hardy)thanks [19:14] gdoteof1: and how is it? [19:14] bjegovic: gksudo synaptic [19:14] cixa, join #ubuntu+1 and ask there [19:14] cixa, lol i like it. but the trackpad is annoying as balls [19:14] \and i want to turn it off [19:14] trism: i just used a new user and it worked... [19:14] the synclient stuff isn't working [19:15] but how to go to terminal ? [19:15] trism: u there? [19:15] bjegovic: right click the desktop and the flux menu will appear [19:15] Gwibber wont start anymore.. "RuntimeError: Couchdb PID18653 exited. Permissions?" is what i get when i run it via the terminal [19:15] cixa, you are in the wrong channel. You need to join the channel #ubuntu+1 which is where people go for alpha and beta releases of Ubuntu. This channel is for Lucid, not Maverick. [19:15] ddavids_: yes, so definitely a config issue, when you switch back, you can try: rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/rhythmbox; that should be the rest of your settings [19:16] ddavids_: assuming rhythmbox settings are the problem [19:16] sprung: yes, thank you, i heard you the first two times [19:16] bjegovic: as you get better with it you can add entrys to your menu as you wish [19:16] cixa, ok, well you have a habit of not replying disconnecting [19:16] how? i dont have that option [19:16] sprung: that is because i had to keep rebooting! sorry about that [19:16] cixa, ok [19:16] trism: but if i remove it, do i need to create it again? [19:17] ddavids_: rhythmbox should create a new one automatically [19:17] gdoteof1: how much did you buy it for? [19:17] hi [19:17] Is anyone using the Catalyst drivers? [19:17] bjegovic: there are config files for it around the system. You can ask in #fluxbox too but the desktop is very well documented [19:17] cixa, no idea.. it was given to me for a job [19:17] just started today configuring it [19:17] ok i hope i see the code when i log back in, else i'll just ask u again pls [19:17] Hi all, I'm in the process of setting up a web server running Ubuntu, its physically at another location, is there anyway I can use the graphical tools on my ubuntu local install to configure it? [19:17] gdoteof1: and what do you make of it so far? [19:18] Is anyone using the Catalyst drivers? [19:18] cixa, i had a thinkpad years ago that i really liked [19:18] ddavids_: yes, I'll repeat it if necessary [19:18] so far it seems solid [19:18] kat_serf: no, but you can ssh -X into the remote server [19:18] cryzed: easy on the repeats please [19:18] ubuntu worked out of the box for everything [19:18] i haven't tested wireless yet [19:18] oCean_, first repeat [19:18] kat_serf, Gadmin-httpd [19:18] kat_serf: doubtful. You can vnc to headless servers though. Learning to use the command line makes servers nice [19:18] lo all. has anyone here managed to get lirc working. particually with an audigy ex ? [19:18] guntbert what does -X do? [19:19] thanks anyway....later [19:19] what is faster braowser then firefox? facebook lag to me [19:19] trism: i have run the command, wht next pls? [19:19] kat_serf, oh maybe i don't understand your question. Are you looking for a GUI for your web server's configuration? [19:19] kat_serf: you can use webmin too (the newer versions are debian/ubuntu friendly) [19:19] kat_serf: it forwards any X windows of the remote server to your machine [19:19] bjegovic, swiftfox. [19:19] Is there a way to get the Motorola w100 wimax stick to work on Ubuntu? [19:19] bjegovic, iceweasel is good too. [19:19] bjegovic, chrome isnt terrible either [19:19] cryzed: yeah, within 2 minutes. Wait at least some 15 or 20 minutes. Also, you might better aks your real question [19:20] how can i install it? i am on fluxbox [19:20] Hello, is there a program for Ubuntu that compresses 1 at a time PDF files that are 300MB big into smaller MB? [19:20] MadRobot: run: sudo lshw -C network ,websearch for the product line for the wifi to find guides [19:20] ddavids: just try starting rhythmbox again in the terminal [19:20] bjegovic: epiphany === elpasmo_ is now known as ElPasmo [19:20] Webmin may be what I want... [19:20] MadRobot, Of course! Just write the drivers! [19:20] !webmin | kat_serf [19:20] kat_serf: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. [19:20] bjegovic: chrome is fast [19:20] trism: same pastebin output [19:20] oCean_: it does work now dude [19:20] ugh [19:20] anyone have tips on what thinkpad i should get? i have looked at the x301 and now at the t410. [19:20] kat_serf, To summarize, swiftfox, iceweasel and chrome === sean is now known as Guest78323 [19:20] ddavids: so it is still crashing? [19:20] Chrome gives out all personal information. Firefox is safer in thataspect. [19:21] ActionParsnip: yeah, same here. But does that mean it's supported? [19:21] ant one know a good and fast pdf reader [19:21] trism: yes [19:21] kat_serf, you should have Chrome anyway just in case there's something that firefox won't render that Chrome can. [19:21] LLLLL: then use chromium [19:21] Hello, is there a program for Ubuntu that compresses 1 at a time PDF files that are 300MB big into smaller MB? [19:21] oCean_: its in the repos so my guess is yes [19:21] LLLLL: use a script [19:21] does webmin require I have a web server already working? or does it come with its own? [19:22] hey guys, is there any commandline tool in ubuntu to change your keyboard options? [19:22] ActionParsnip: aha, understood. [19:22] have no idea how to do that. [19:22] ant one know a good and fast pdf reader [19:22] any one know a good and fast pdf reader [19:22] sprung, I wish that was an option for me. :-) [19:22] LLLLL: i'd ask in #bash they know some special magic [19:22] Bebo the one that comes with ubuntu is good [19:22] !pdf | bebo [19:22] bebo, stop repeating [19:22] bebo: pdf is the Portable Document Format created by Adobe; viewable in GNU/Linux with xpdf/kpdf/okular/evince, and also adobe reader (free download, but closed source) [19:22] bebo: xpdf/kpdf/okular/evince [19:22] and i anyone familiar with the bug in ubuntu netbook that the battery suddenly changes to 0.1% when using youtube or some big website?

[19:24] ActionParsnip: Late reply, I am not messing around with Plymouth at the moment :) [19:24] oCean_: I see, then not [19:25] ddavids: I'm not sure what config settings could be left [19:25] bebo: please do a little google....

[19:34] kat_serf: use a Ubuntu Deb file from repos, or ppa, or compile program from source after getting it from a trusted source such as an offical website [19:34] sebsebseb lol sarge and jaunty are both ubuntu aren't they? [19:34] kat_serf: no [19:34] Is there a way to "try" the server version of Ubuntu without messing with the contents of the HDD?

[22:52] zerty, no it's not [22:52] zerty: custom kernels are not supported here [22:52] it is [22:52] because me want the official [22:52] one [22:52] zerty, please stop asking [22:52] zerty: then all you do is install linux-image-generic [22:52] my system got a customize on e [22:52] zerty: its installed by default [22:52] zerty, right. and this is not supported. as you have been told numerous times [22:53] * kholzer really wants to tell zerty to RTFM... [22:53] who are you bazhang ? [22:53] zerty: from your questions I suggest you first try to get some experience by doing a local compile on non-productinal environment, so lern to check if your special-kernel lacks any support for it, else you install kernels by apt [22:53] kholzer: rtfm is not allowed here, thanks [22:53] kholzer, please, that is not needed nor appropriate [22:53] * kholzer didn't do it...just expressed desire to ;[ [22:54] zerty: to come to this, virtual machines are nice, as you can break and restore them as you like [22:54] virtual machine ?

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [23:10] cablop: what happened prior [23:10] j_squidy: cool, well i just found a site called abandonware gonna see what lucas arts games they have.. old ones [23:10] T3CHKOMMIE, because I needed a basic system to build off of. I am using it to launch a single application and nothing more. [23:10] however I need the intel drivers for it to run smoothly [23:10] Praticle: we can try.. [23:10] What do you need to know? [23:10] Spondodge, will look [23:11] Praticle: open a terminal.. [23:11] K [23:11] btw I'm on the computer in safe-graphics mode (thats the onle way it doesn't freeze) [23:11] Praticle: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [23:11] Tann, i have wasted many hours trying to get a GUI to work on ubuntu server. i havnt had any luck yet. just have to get used to the CLI === hebz0rl_ is now known as hebz0rl [23:11] Praticle:which distro are you running ? [23:12] 10.04 [23:12] K I ran the command [23:12] sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [23:12] Praticle: no eeros ? [23:12] nope [23:12] T3CHKOMMIE: checklist, do you have X, have you got correct drivers, generated a xinitrc?, got a wm? [23:12] T3CHKOMMIE, if what I would like to do was possible from the terminal, I would have gone that route in the first place [23:12] Praticle: sudo apt-get install pastebinit [23:12] aeon-ltd: i had an ubuntu inside a vbox and it worked as it came, slow, but worked, then i installed the vbox additions, it continued to work normally, then i updated the packages,. that updated the kernel and related stuff, then i reinstalled the kernel, and i got no compiz and no sound, i can live with no copiz, but no sound is weird, cause it had sound! i did a nother thing i removed gdm... [23:12] ...and installed again [23:12] Praticle: pastebinit /var/log/syslog [23:12] Tann: You should be able to install ubuntu-desktop [23:12] I installed microsoft office on wine which upgraded my earlier version of office, when I went to the unistall wine programs, a bunch of office programs go put in and I cant uninstall is there a way to delete programs in wine so that you can reinstall them fresh? [23:13] Praticle: dmesg | pastebinit [23:13] cablop: can you use terminal?, if so go to a term and type alsamixer [23:13] dugger5688, if I wanted everything that came with ubuntu-desktop, I wouldn't have used the server edition [23:13] cablob did you update guest aditions ? [23:13] aeon-ltd: let me try :) [23:14] http://pastebin.com/SYxk8sZq [23:14] Tann: So you JUST want the intel drivers?

Does anyone know of a tool, or a way to calibrate my touchscreen?

[23:14] Excurion, does Setting my primary display to PCI completly disable the onboard card [23:15] T3CHKOMMIE, I have everything going great except I need hardware acceleration. [23:15] jagadish: I have my own problem to worry about right now [23:15] aeon it cannot find alsamizer [23:16] aeon-ltd: it cannot find alsamizer [23:16] Tann, did you say it was an intell gpu? [23:16] yup [23:16] Excurion, hehehe.. carry on.. [23:16] integrated or dedicated? whats the model number? [23:16] cablop: alsamixer [23:16] Jordan_U, ... [23:16] Praticle: dmesg ? [23:17] aeon-ltd: it says cannot open mixer: No such file or directory [23:17] cablop: you need to reinstall alsa then [23:17] Jordan_U, you there [23:17] Praticle: syslog looks convienent, part from a segfault in evolution, maybe fw blocking it ? [23:17] aeon-ltd: sudo aptitude install alsa? [23:18] cablop: it should find it yeah [23:18] Praticle: another check, enough spaceon hd ? df -h tells you === draco is now known as Guest78835 [23:18] OAFIID:GNOME_Cardapio <--- any suggestions? [23:18] jagadish: Yes, but I don't know the answer to your question. [23:18] Tann, out of curiosity, what are you running on a server that needs graphic accelloration? [23:18] DasEi: I have like 400 gig free === Guest78835 is now known as draco_ === draco_ is now known as draco__ [23:19] T3CHKOMMIE: You don't use compiz on all your servers? [23:19] T3CHKOMMIE, XBMC === root is now known as Guest12771 [23:19] Why would you need compiz on a server? [23:19] salve [23:19] draco__: I was joking. [23:19] dai [23:19] draco__: x-fowarding? [23:19] Jordan_U, can i use anything else to see some fire on my moniter... !!! hehehe [23:20] Jordan_U, ah ok [23:20] Hello. A windows user has shared a directory with 'everyone: full control' permissions. I'm on Linux and can read and edit existing files fine, but when I create new files, they have read/write access only for this linux user. Is there a way I can configure the files I make to have read/write access inherited from the directory I'm making them in? [23:20] Tann: i'm not sure i understand, if you have installed xorg, it should have pulled in the video drivers. [23:20] draco__: crappy 3d cubes that "increase" productivity [23:20] vixiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii [23:20] Tann, ahhhhhh, hm i have only run that on a Xbox, what kinda card do yo uhave? usually the intell gpus suck with linux, but i have seen some drivers for them. [23:20] Guest12771: yes? [23:20] askhader: x-forwarding? that sounds nifty. [23:20] T3CHKOMMIE, well I think I've got something. the xorg package itself never actually installed? [23:21] Praticle: which graphics ? [23:21] nope, didn't work [23:21] aeon-ltd: hey, it's kind of like an expo that shows more in way :) [23:21] Tann, are you using this server as a back end or front end for xbmc? [23:21] Tann: You're trying to install xbmc... on a server. It'd be much better to install desktop and remove what you don't want. Or install the xbmc project's own LiveCD and then do an install? [23:21] DasEi: Ati HD 5470? I had everything up and running for about a month and then one day it started freezing up. It was after an update I think [23:21] frontend, T3CHKOMMIE [23:21] aeon-ltd: ok, i'll give it a shot and be back either success or fail, hehe [23:22] aeon-ltd: thanks [23:22] cablop: did it install fine? [23:22] Tann, im going to have to agree with dugger5688, i think it would work better using the desktop ubuntu, whats your hardware like? [23:22] Praticle: I'm not too good on ati-knowledge, hints when this occurs again sould come from dmesg | tail [23:23] jagadish: Try editing /etc/default/grub with "gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub" and change GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="quiet splash" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="quiet splash nomodeset". Then save and exit gedit, and run "sudo update-grub". [23:23] Praticle: pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log [23:23] Tann, that is if you want to keep it as a front end. i have my server running backend smb and stuff all streaming to my xbox running xbmc. [23:23] T3CHKOMMIE, eh, I'll get it working. I find it easier to work on installing stuff than going through and removing stuff [23:23] Is there a way to bring Empathy (the contact list) to the front via the Indicator Applet? [23:23] T3CHKOMMIE: You can actually start xbmc as the default session, and forgo all the gnome overhead very easily. So again... I agree. [23:24] jagadish: Hopefully then you'll be able to switch to the nvidia card without X crashing, then install the nvidia drivers with System > Administration > Hardware Drivers to get full features and accelleration. [23:24] Jordan_U, Thanks A Ton i'll try [23:24] jagadish: You're welcome. [23:24] DasEi: Sorry I ran the dmesg | tail. And I have no idea what it's trying to tell me [23:25] Jordan_U, i'm give u the results soon [23:25] Praticle: these are the last system events occured on your box, you should check it right after a freeze [23:25] Praticle: pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log [23:25] no alsa package in lucid, do pulse replaced alsa in the end? [23:25] Praticle: another place to look is /var/log/messages [23:26] dugger5688, do you have any experince with the XBMC liveCD? [23:26] cablop: No, pulseaudio uses alsa, it is not intended to (and never will) replace alsa. [23:27] DasEi: Ok, I'll brb. I'm gonna go freeze it and then run that [23:27] Jordan_U: then i can remove pulseaudio and just keep alsa, isn't it? [23:27] cablop: I don't think it's that simple. What problem are you actually trying to solve? [23:28] T3CHKOMMIE: None whatsoever, but I think it's ubuntu based. I know alot of people have used it to install on very cheap atom boxes [23:29] DasEi: Sorry, what was the command again [23:29] Praticle: dmesg | tail [23:29] gentbert, hi you there ? [23:29] * DasEi thinks fastest reboot ever [23:29] Jordan_U: first, i lost audio after updating the kernel, second i'm running this ubuntu in a vm and i want to strip it to a simplier ubuntu with a simplier gui [23:29] dugger5688, ya, i have some old pc's i wanted to re-purpose as XBMC front ends, i have two old xboxes and i love having all my media in a central location, but i never had the live disk take off, i actually think its knoppix based, or atleast i remember alot of the tools i used for XBMC were knoppix based... you know, for dual-booting that old peice of hardware. [23:30] DasEi: It seems to say the same thing as before... The problem is after it freezes I can't open terminal. I have to ctrl+alt+backspace [23:30] cablop: Why do you think that removing pulseaudio will fix your problem? Have you tried booting into the previous kernel? [23:30] Praticle: pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log [23:30] Praticle: another place to look is /var/log/messages [23:31] http://pastebin.com/rvSm30mu [23:31] http://pastebin.com/8UydU6SX [23:31] respectivly [23:31] Jordan_U: i don't have the old kernel anymore, but not, i don't want to remove the pulse to solve the sopund issue, just cause i think i don't need it, [23:31] i'll remove bluetooth and alike too, cause i don't need them in a vm [23:32] hey, i'm looking for an preferably up-to-date (like 10.04) VERY LIGHT ubuntu version, a minimalistic one, without any applications (besides stuff like network manager, and ofc x and gnome). could you point me to something? [23:33] cablop: I recommend keeping pulseaudio, it's usefull for more than just the bells and whistles. [23:33] !minimal | Cube`` [23:33] Cube``: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [23:34] jord thanks a lot [23:34] Jordan_U: but what this pretty much is is the latest 10.04, but in a minimal version wright? this minimal cd gets released every time ubuntu gets released right? [23:35] RÄ4 [23:35] Cube``: if you install X and gnome.. well you have ubuntu then.. so i im not sure what you are gaining. [23:35] Cube``: Yes, all Ubuntu versions use the same repositories. [23:35] hello [23:36] Cube``: use niormal ubuntu. remove what you dont need. [23:36] kk [23:36] Can anyone help me properly configure my wacom tablet? [23:36] it works properly if I reboot after plugging it in, but it doesn't seem to support hotplug [23:37] Praticle: still I see no major error by overflying the logs, it occurs when gdm strs the desktop ? [23:37] how to install mysql on ubuntu 10.04? [23:38] Jordan_U: well, then i'll just reinstall the alsa [23:38] DasEi: It allows me to login. And I can even open terminal. But as soon as I click on anything (or wait 10 seconds) it freezes [23:38] I just changed the uid for one of my user accounts from 500 to 501 and now it doesn't appear in the login window. [23:38] Lol I have no idea what I just did [23:39] DasEi: The only thing it allows me to open is terminal and thats only because I have a shortcut on my desktop and after it opens its frozen [23:39] How can I login to the account while keeping the changed uid? [23:39] * vsk is sleeping now... yeap yeap yeap... [23:39] mister-walter: All user accounts in Ubuntu should have uid >= 1000. [23:40] mister-walter: I'm not sure how you ended up with a uid of 500 in the first place. [23:40] ooooh [23:40] Praticle: I have no certain idea , might try to reconfigure gdm [23:40] I was trying to modify some Mac partitions [23:40] which had a UID of 501 [23:40] DasEi: Alright, how would I go about that? [23:40] How can I go about blocking certain hostnames on my bin server? I believe the term is blackholing. [23:41] Praticle: log out to commandline, stop gdm , reconfigure, start gdm [23:41] DasEi: Alrighty, I'll give it a shot [23:41] Praticle: write the commands down : [23:41] mister-walter: Adding your user to a group with gid of 501 will probably get you what you want. [23:42] Any way to turn an .iso into an .img usable by PXElinux? I'm trying to avoid the netboot that downloads files and instead have an entire install img be the boot. [23:42] Lol how do I do that [23:42] Praticle: sudo service gdm stop [23:42] mister-walter: Though you'll need to disable journaling if you're trying to write to hfsplus partitions. [23:42] I don't care about writing [23:42] Praticle: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm [23:42] Can some one help me on installation of software on ubuntu [23:42] Praticle: sudo service gdm start === mike is now known as Guest63379 [23:43] how can i export a certificate used by my school's wifi? [23:43] i can help you purvish [23:43] Praticle: alt+strg+F2 brings you to cmd-line (and logs you off) [23:43] CrayonOfDoom: If you setup a local apt mirror then the netboot CD at least won't need to go out to the internet. [23:43] DasEi: strg? sorry, what's that? [23:43] Guest63379, ya tell me [23:43] Praticle: ctrl [23:43] DasEi: ah! ok. Brb, I'll give that a shot [23:43] Guest63379, i want to install mysql how to install via terminal [23:44] Jordan_U: so then it'd still "retrieve" the install files, but from the local apt mirror which can have the strict version requirements I need? [23:44] Can anybody tell me how to block a single hostname with bind? [23:44] oh Sry i thought u meant install ubuntu [23:44] CrayonOfDoom: Yes. [23:44] Just have it resolve to local host, or somesuch? [23:44] i dont know how purvish [23:44] Glorious, I'll do some research on setting one up, thanks.

Another thing I forgot to mention is that when I login I get the error "The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_FastUserSwitchApplet"" I'm not sure if this is relevant but I figured Id mention it [23:48] Jordan_U, no use the same error... :( i think i'll use my onboard one for now [23:48] Praticle: you can delete it if you don't need it, but this shouldn't freeze the sys [23:48] Jordan_U, hehehe [23:49] Praticle: for now I'm out of ideas.. [23:49] DasEi: Ok, Thanks anyway. I've posted on the forums so maybe someone there can help me out. Appreciate the effort!
