=== tenach_ is now known as tenach [01:02] I'm having trouble with a usb mic, it was working on saturday, and now it isn't recognized at all by the computer. Anyone have any thoughts on that? [01:03] cheri703, does it show up if you type lsusb in a terminal? [01:03] will try that [01:04] I think so [01:04] I only have two things plugged in, and I believe that's one of them [01:04] post the output to here: http://paste.ubuntu.com [01:04] it is a mic/webcam, and cam is working fine [01:04] just mic isn't working [01:04] oh...I've heard of issues of a mic within a cam not working correctly but I didn't stick around to see if they figured it out... [01:04] http://paste.ubuntu.com/466204/ [01:04] well, it worked saturday, that's the ting [01:05] *thin [01:05] g [01:05] bah [01:05] what's the cam model? [01:05] one sec, will find out [01:06] gear head wc785sfx [01:08] the frustrating part is that it DID work [01:18] cheri have you checked the sound preferences? [02:40] so I was asking about some audio issues earlier, I've made a wee bit of progress: it appears that the usb audio device appears in gnome-device manager, but it does NOT show up in the sound preferences as a device. any suggestions? [02:44] anyone here? [02:45] i'm looking for some beginner help [02:45] I'm here, but I don't know how much I can help...I have limited knowledge [02:45] ok [02:46] i'm wondering if I use this command "sudo cp -R /test/images /var/www/images" will is OVERWRITE everhting in /var/www/images ? [02:46] uhm, I'm not sure [02:46] oh [03:19] cheri703: it should not, fyi :) [03:19] cheri703: thanks for fielding the question [03:19] I was going to suggest doing it in nautilus...since that will give the option to merge, but they left too quick [03:19] aye, but /var/www/ is usually owned by www-data:www-data [03:20] paultag, do YOU know anything about why sound preferences wouldn't recognize a usb audio device? [03:20] sure [03:20] I don't know to much about that stuff... :/ learning [03:20] cheri703: what usb device? does it show up on lsusb ? [03:20] well, it's a webcam/mic, and it worked on saturday [03:20] Oh, regression [03:20] fun [03:20] what release cheri703? [03:20] 10.04 ? [03:20] it does show up on lsusb, and it shows up as a usb audio device in gnome-device manager [03:20] yes [03:21] but it is nowhere to be found in sound preferences [03:21] cheri703: P.S. whoh, this is not us-oh, welcome :) [03:21] I talked to a friend for over an hour on saturday... [03:21] yeah :) [03:21] cheri703: try installing `padevchooser`, and let's see if we can get raw input off it [03:21] cheri703: how did you find us, btw? [03:21] canthus13 suggested maybe if it's in a different port it could be causing an issue, but I can't go change it yet [03:21] I've been in here before... [03:21] Oh shazam [03:21] righto [03:22] cheri703: does the webcam part work? [03:22] yes, quite well actually [03:22] cheri703: well then it's not the hardware ;) [03:23] cheri703: my guess is that it got muted in pulse [03:23] cheri703: happens to me now and again, but it's a crappy bit of hardware [03:23] but wouldn't it still show up though? [03:23] cheri703: not sure, padevchooser will give you a lower level access to devices plugged into the pulse server [03:23] if it just didn't work at all, then fine, linux quirk, but the fact that it did and stopped is what's frustrating [03:23] ok [03:24] k, padevchooser installed [03:24] cheri703: check in the inputs, and you should have it in there. If it's not in there, something nasty is going on, we should look for recently installed pkgs that might have borked it [03:24] cheri703: ok, pull it up, it will go up to the tray [03:24] ok [03:24] now what? :) [03:25] cheri703: pull it up and get hte listing of input devices, I can't remember what menu it's in. Manager something [03:25] devices just shows internal audio whatnot [03:25] cheri703: try going through the dropdowns [03:26] cheri703: if it's not in there, try unplugging it and plugging it back in, udev could have thrown a shit-fit [03:27] it shows up in the device manager, and it's not under pulseaudio though [03:27] cheri703: what device manager ? [03:27] cheri703: in padevchooser? [03:27] gnome-device manager or whatever [03:27] ah [03:27] got that to see if it was even recognized at all [03:28] cheri703: could you unplug it, and then plug it back in? then tail the /var/log/messages and a dmesg ( last few lines that are the event ) [03:28] cheri703: that would tell us how the kernel and userspace is reading the audio input device [03:29] and if it's hooking up to what [03:29] tail the /var/log/messages? [03:29] cheri703: tail /var/log/messages [03:29] what does that mean? [03:29] cheri703: then !pastebin the 10 or so lines [03:29] cheri703: it's a command [03:29] k [03:29] one sec [03:29] cheri703: sure, tyt [03:33] http://paste.ubuntu.com/466239/ [03:35] this is the result of dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu.com/466241/ [03:36] kk sec cheri703 [03:37] Whoh [03:37] cool [03:37] Jul 19 22:30:16 cdesktop pulseaudio[1546]: module-udev-detect.c: Tried to configure /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb1/1-2/1-2:1.2/sound/card1 (alsa_card.usb-eb1a_2766-02-U0xeb1a0x2766) more often than 5 times in 10s [03:37] looks like something funny is going on [03:37] yeah [03:38] sec [03:38] and the whole dmesg response.... [03:38] wow dmesg... [03:38] yeah [03:38] just opened that [03:38] euch... [03:39] yeah [03:39] cheri703: are you going to idle in us-oh tom? [03:39] cheri703: I need to meditate on this [03:40] probably, I may have to go out to see clients (going to try to avoid it though ;) ) [03:40] cheri703: do you run a screen? [03:40] I will experiment with the last usb spot (dog is out of the way) [03:40] screen? [03:41] nvmd [03:41] ? [03:41] cheri703: poke me when you get online tom. I'll be on at 7:00 -> 3:00+ [03:41] cheri703: I need to mull this over [03:41] I can leave xchat open, I have it set to highlight me when someone says something, and I have it logging [03:41] cheri703: something funny is going on [03:41] cheri703: ahha, OK, cool [03:41] interesting note: [03:42] when I plug it back in, it cuts out my audio from the internal card. if I pause it, then start it, it works again... [03:42] * paultag scratches head [03:44] tried pausing audio then plugging in, no change to whether it'd work or not... [03:44] I appreciate your help! [03:44] and meditation :) [03:44] there's also this that I found: http://excid3.com/blog/2010/06/changing-the-ubuntu-10-04-audio-channel-control/ no idea whether it'd help [03:48] cheri703: sure thing, let me research it :) [04:27] hi SushiDude|Laptop [04:28] hi [04:28] hi everyone [04:28] I need help http://www.thisweekinlinux.com/forum/index.php?topic=147.0 [04:31] SushiDude|Laptop: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition/ResizingPartition should help [04:31] ty [04:32] Hello Ubuntu-beginners ;) [04:32] hey Sary [04:33] Hey kermiacccccccccccc ;) [04:33] Sary: finger stuck mate? ;) [04:33] Sary: or your "c" key? hehe [04:33] lol [04:34] it's like saying your Nice loud [04:34] ;) [04:34] * Nick [04:34] How are friend ;) [04:36] Sary: yeah mate, I know hehe... I was just playing. I'm good thanks, how are you? [04:48] ubuntu sucks [04:50] mininessie: That kind of comment really isn't helpful. Are you having an issue that you require assistance with? [04:50] kermiac, nope [04:52] ok, I suppose everyone is entitled to an opinion hehe [04:55] yes. [04:56] hi ridin [04:57] Is there anyone in the US that can tell me what "CST" timezone is? Is it UTC -6? [04:58] correcto [05:01] thanks ridin === kermiac_ is now known as kermiavc === kermiavc is now known as kermiac [07:17] good morning team [07:19] morning Puck` [08:35] hi [08:35] I have around 10000 files in a particular directory and needs to be pushed to a remote geographical server, The task is a repeatative one. I have the following snippet of code [08:35] http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/466309/ [08:35] I mean any efficient way to carryout this task [08:38] hi krssup [08:43] Puck`: hi [08:43] krssup: seems no one is around, could you stick around a bit? (: [08:43] sure [08:44] I'm not that good with these kind of tasks, so i can't really help you, but you could eventually post a forum post on ubuntuforums.org, the replies are pretty fast there too [08:44] krssup: maybe this could help you too: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-upload-the-files-and-directory-tree-to-remote-ftp-server.html [08:54] morning all [08:54] morning duanedesign :) [09:00] hi duanedesign, meindian523 [09:01] hi Puck` [09:02] Akos :) [09:03] (: [09:04] * meindian523 was wondering who was Puck` [09:04] the whois does miracles :P it is a powerful tool :P [09:05] yeah, but not always [09:05] for eg, when you're wearing a cloak [09:05] i don't have a cloak activated, so my host is always akos.me [09:05] i don't like cloacks :\ [09:06] i ask this purely as a matter of interest, if i have say, an SSH server, on my local network, Does my router HAVE to have port forwarding for me to access it from the internet as a whole (not just my lan) [09:06] * meindian523 doesn't have a self-owned host, and prefers his host don't reveal his IP address or location via pointer queries [09:08] Mjiig, AFAIK, yes [09:08] Mjiig: yes, definetly [09:09] ho wcan i install skype on ubuntu [09:09] thanks, i often end up with these random queries i can't find answers to on my own :D [09:09] :) [09:10] Puck`, does ubuntu-restricted-extras contain Skype? [09:10] meindian523: as far as i know, yes [09:11] dp_: it's enough if you go to http://skype.com and download the ubuntu package [09:11] cani do it through terminal [09:12] Puck`, description in Synaptic doesn't mention Skype [09:12] (plus I have ubuntu-restricted-extras installed and don't have Skype in Networking, and Alt+F2 Skype doesn't run Skype) [09:13] dp_, I guess you need to install it off the Skype website, then sudo aptitude install skyessentials for extra functionalities [09:14] ok [09:16] dp_, tip: get the dynamic statix version off http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/get-skype/on-your-computer/linux/post-download/ [09:16] *static [09:17] and then untar in your /opt directory [09:17] meindian523: ok ...thanks :) [09:17] np [09:18] i got it ... [09:20] skype is now in the partner repos in lucid [09:21] dp_, ^^ [09:22] kermiac, thanx for the info [09:22] dp_, you can install via repos! [09:22] * meindian523 apologizes [09:22] * meindian523 didn't know [09:22] * meindian523 pleads don't kill me, no no nooooo [09:22] ok thks ! [09:22] :P [09:22] ha ha [09:23] haha [09:23] Puck`, no fair, no Rhythmbox stream on XTRadio [09:24] meindian523: heeey there is! [09:24] ??, not up there on the front page [09:24] Add Radio and put http://stream.xtradio.org:8181/live [09:24] only ogg, mp3, phone, Winamp, Amarok and VLC [09:25] meindian523: no kill :) that (the earlier method you mentioned) would be useful for older versions of ubuntu. [09:25] svaksha, I know, I did that earlier, I contributed the only method I knew [09:25] it was 8.04 or thereabouts [09:26] * svaksha is on 8.04 --barebones stuff needed for devel work. no fancy sw there [09:26] so no skype [09:26] devel! [09:28] * svaksha meant development [09:28] svaksha, I know, check PM [09:34] meindian523: the amarok and vlc one works for rhythmbox too :P [09:35] Puck`, then mark the alt text as Linux player [09:35] (the Amarok one) [09:35] meindian523: now that could be a valid point :P I'll do it, i just didn't get to the site yet [10:17] I'm having some trouble running a couple of 3d games from the Ubuntu Software center. "Tux racer, Torq etc" I have followed a few threads reguarding this but haven't managed to resolve anything [10:18] I'm running Ubuntu 10.4 AMD64 with an Nvidia Geforce7300 that is apparently working, but glxinfo comes up with nothing. [10:20] actually glx info comes up with name of display: :0.0 Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

[10:29] what was that command <>|grep direct to check for direct rendering? [10:29] glxinfo | grep direct [10:29] PMacca: ^^ [10:29] I think it's related to ^^, but not sure [10:35] Afternoon =) [10:36] PMacca: still there [10:36] Silver_Fox_: hello! [10:36] Hello duanedesign , how are you ? [10:36] I am okay, just hit a slight "snag" - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1534862 Laugh out loud [10:37] Yep, still here. [10:37] PMacca: System > Administration > Hardware Drivers [10:38] PMacca: what options do you have there? [10:40] NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version current) this driver is activated and currently in use. [10:41] it is, hmmm [10:41] Options NVIDIA drivers version 173, version 96 and current. [10:42] PMacca: you want the (version current) [10:42] Thats on and apparently running [10:43] ok PMacca can you run the command: gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf [10:44] In terminal? [10:44] PMacca: sorry, yes [10:44] PMacca: copy and paste that at http://paste.ubuntu.com [10:45] duanedesign, you realize Lucid doesn't have a xorg.conf? [10:45] not at that location at least? [10:45] PMacca: ok [10:46] its been depreciated [10:46] Um, hang you want me to paste the Hardware drivers there? [10:46] PMacca: no [10:47] PMacca: you dont have a xorg.conf [10:47] thats ok [10:47] Sorry my miss, what exactly am I pasting [10:47] PMacca: nothing :) yet [10:47] OK [10:47] PMacca: i should of alerted you to the possobility that the command could open a blank doc :) [10:48] OK, thats what happened. [10:48] s/could/would [10:48] meindian523: i have one ;) [10:48] hmm? I don't [10:49] duanedesign, where? [10:49] /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d/* [10:49] ? [10:50] it just depends. Some people use them still. [10:50] some people have /home from Karmic [10:50] * meindian523 does, on the PC box [10:50] *desktop [10:50] the nvidiaX Server Setting ccreates one too [10:52] OK, the usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d/* worked Do you want me to paste that instead? [10:55] Pasted [10:56] PMacca: after you paste it post the URL here [10:56] http://paste.ubuntu.com/466389/ [11:01] PMacca: can you install: nvidia-settings [11:02] The nvidia-settings utility is a tool for configuring the NVIDIA [11:02] Linux graphics driver. [11:02] duanedesign, I have 05-evdev.conf, 10-synaptics.conf, 10-vmmouse.conf and 10-wacom.conf in /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d [11:02] sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings [11:02] that command in a Terminal will get the settings panel installed [11:03] it is a more capable Display Preferences for nvidia drivers [11:03] OK, Hang on a sec, I already have NVIDIA X server settings installed [11:03] ok thats it [11:04] PMacca: System > Administration > Nvidia X Server Settings [11:05] OK it came up with a message to edit your x configuration file and reboot. [11:05] hmm [11:05] duanedesign, when you're done with this issue, I have a related question [11:06] PMacca: can you run the command in a Terminal: sudo nvidia-xconfig [11:07] PMacca: it sould end with: New X configuration file written to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' [11:07] Yep, it's unable to locate/open x configuration file. [11:08] New X configuration file written to '/etc/x11/xorg.config [11:09] I guess I just have to reboot now? [11:09] ok, it's called xorg,config now.... [11:09] *xorg.config.... [11:11] OK, back in a bit [11:11] 20-nvidia.conf [11:11] During the installation of the proprietary Nvidia driver, a config file (20-nvidia.conf) will be installed in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d directory.. It allows Xorg to use the nvidia's driver at Xorg start. [11:12] fudge thats not right [11:12] i dont have one [11:13] oh i see [11:13] he got it [11:13] New X configuration file written to '/etc/x11/xorg.config [11:13] duanedesign, you didn't? [11:13] meindian523: sorry i confused myself :) [11:14] .....get that message? [11:14] now you confused me [11:15] hopefully the xorg.config will sort his issues out [11:16] well? [11:16] heh [11:16] Crashed the whole system. [11:16] seriously? [11:16] Yep. [11:16] duane ! [11:16] PMacca: did it start in low graphics mode [11:17] PMacca: you can delete the file it made with: sudo rm /etc/x11/xorg.config [11:17] I had to restart it in low graphics mode. It didn't even load the first time. The monitor came up with no input and switched to stand by. [11:19] No such file exists. [11:20] PMacca: you can delete the file it made with: sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.config [11:20] its a capital X [11:20] :P [11:20] No such file exists, I tryed both upper and lower case. [11:21] ok: ls /etc/X11/ [11:21] yep [11:21] do you see a xorg.conf [11:21] +1 exactly what I was typin.... [11:21] xorg.config [11:23] if nothin, try ls -aF /etc/X11 [11:23] PMacca, ^ [11:23] If this was happening to someone else I'd be laughing, as it is it's hard to stop smiling.... [11:24] what happened? [11:24] PMacca: did the Terminal command: ls /etc/X11/ [11:24] return any file that looks like xorg.conf or xorg.config [11:24] * meindian523 thinks we are giving ultra-basic commands to a *nix guru...... [11:25] Yeah, I got something, do you want me to paste it again? [11:25] is there a xorg.conf [11:25] or xorg.config [11:26] yep [11:26] ok which one :) [11:26] xorg.conf and a few backups and a failsafe [11:27] Sorry my bad. [11:27] ok can you run the command: gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf [11:27] PMacca: and paste that at http://paste.ubuntu.com [11:28] PMacca: i have a similar nvidia card [11:28] ill compare it to mine. If worse comes to worse we will delete it and you will be back were you started at least [11:30] http://paste.ubuntu.com/466403/ [11:31] Thanks, appologies for the delay cut and paste mix up. [11:31] PMacca: no problem [11:32] PM thats identical to mine :\ [11:32] OK, so where am I going wrong. How about I reinstall the NVIDIA drivers from the start? [11:33] PMacca: yep [11:33] that is what i would do [11:33] PMacca: we might want to get rid of that xorg.conf [11:33] OK, do you mind walking me through so I can check for misses? [11:34] the command: mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak [11:34] that will keep the file 'just in case' but get it out of the way [11:35] it will just rename the file so the computer wont see it but you can get to it if for some reason you need to [11:35] OK, I just got permission denied on that mv [11:35] I'll try again [11:35] oh [11:35] sudo [11:36] sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak [11:36] * meindian523 prefers sudo -i when we know we are going to be sitting in # for a while [11:37] looks like that worked. [11:38] PMacca: ok [11:38] PMacca: sudo apt-get remove nvidia-current; sudo apt-get install nvidia-current [11:38] PMacca: could you run that command please [11:38] * meindian523 prefers aptitude nowadays [11:39] * duanedesign found a jockey bug that might be PMaccas problem [11:39] * meindian523 googles jockey [11:39] OK. [11:40] PMacca: ok now this next command is going to give you a few choices [11:40] ah, aka Hardware drivers [11:41] select the alternative that matches the driver that you have installed [11:41] (e.g. /usr/lib/nvidia-current/ld.so.conf for nvidia-current): [11:41] here is what mine looked like: [11:41] * 0 /usr/lib/nvidia-current/ld.so.conf 9700 auto mode [11:41] so i selected 0 [11:42] there was also the option: [11:42] 1 /usr/lib/mesa/ld.so.conf 500 manual mode [11:42] OK, what comand am I using? Sorry, me = noob [11:42] i just wanted to explain it before i gave you the command [11:42] :) [11:42] PMacca: sudo update-alternatives --config gl_conf [11:43] that is it [11:44] is it making sense? [11:45] Makes sense, but I gust got no alternatives for gl_config [11:45] PMacca: what happened when you ran the command? [11:46] it said : There are 0 choices for the alternative gl_conf [11:46] update-alternatives: error: no alternatives for gl_config. [11:48] Just looking back at whats been installed it looks like there is already an updates/dkms/ in the sanity check. [11:49] Yeah, it's already in auto mode [11:50] update-alternatives: using /usr/lib/nvidia-current/ld.so.conf to provide /etc/ld.so.conf.d/GL.conf (gl_conf) in auto mode. [11:50] ok [11:51] Think it might work? [11:51] one sec [11:51] lol, the bug report says to run: sudo nvidia-xconfig [11:51] then reboot [11:52] OK, I'll try that then? [11:52] PMafter reading the bug this is definetly your issue [11:52] nvidia driver shows to be activated under Hrdware Drivers but no OpenGL support [11:52] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia#Common%20Issues [11:52] PMacca: i would [11:52] Appreciate the hard work. If your ever in Osaka look me up for a few beers.

Is there a chance my ubuntu could be compromised? [17:43] allonor: sure [17:43] much less of a chance though [17:43] holstein, is there a way to check that? [17:43] holstein, I did a rootkit scan but nothing found... [17:43] usually we use live CD's and USB sticks to repair windows [17:44] allonor: check what? [17:44] exactly? [17:44] holstein, I don't think you understand me. [17:44] OK :) [17:44] you have windows installed [17:44] holstein, I had some viruses on my usb stick which I connected to my computer. [17:45] are you dual booting? with ubuntu? [17:45] holstein, NO i only have ubuntu installed. [17:45] OK [17:45] holstein, And I was wondering if Ubuntu might be infected now... [17:45] could be i suppose [17:45] but i dought it [17:46] there are antivirus tools AFAIK [17:46] you could scan [17:46] i wouldnt worry about it [17:46] holstein, well I do worry:) [17:46] holstein, av tools like? [17:46] if your not running .exe's in wine as root or something [17:46] even then [17:47] holstein, I don't wine installed.

Should I re-install? [19:17] holder: i am not super familiar with chromium but with firefox creating a new user usually solves a lot of issues [19:18] A new user? [19:21] holder: are you using the : chrome-ubuntu-theme scrollbar extension [19:21] 0 extensions [19:22] It makes no sense. I don't think I have any of the software that causes chrome to crash either [19:23] holder: does the crash happen when you drag tabs out of the browser and drop on desktop? [19:24] From the moment I open chromium the tabs crash, most times. I can reload and the error will go away for a moment. [19:27] holder: hmm. Are you installing Chromium from the daily ppa? [19:28] ahh i see. chromium-browser is in the repository [19:31] holder: depending on which you are running, you could try the version in the daily ppa and see if it runs better. http://www.liberiangeek.net/2010/05/how-to-install-chromium-google-chrome-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx/ [19:35] hi this is raj i need some help on gnomeppp [19:37] i need help [19:37] guruss i need your help [19:47] HanifBaloch: if you describe the problem people may be able to help [19:49] oh thank you svaksha i actualy have problem with my gnomeppp and firefox on Ubuntu [19:50] the gnomeppp does not detect my vwireless modem and firefox always starts in offline mode [19:56] svaksha: are you there [19:57] do you know any one master on firefox problems and gnome-ppp too [19:58] HanifBaloch: yeah ddecator is the guy for firefox [19:58] he's not here though [19:59] than where should i go?:-( [20:06] Afternoon =) [20:10] HanifBaloch: lovinglinux keeps an excellent support thread at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1193567 on the main ubuntu forum (he's a really nice guy as well.)
