| ^peanut^ | Planetary: hmm, reset bios back to defaults. | 00:00 |
| ^peanut^ | Planetary: are the cables on the cdrom new or old? | 00:01 |
| Hasanibrahim | BluesKaj: as a classical thought: i was going to use it for my multimedia datas | 00:01 |
| Sasquatch7 | My splash screen no longer works after nvidia update. Any ideas? | 00:01 |
| Planetary | ^peanut^: old | 00:01 |
| ^peanut^ | Planetary: do you have any newer ones? I'd also try replacing that. | 00:01 |
| Planetary | ^peanut^: if i put a new battery in wouldnt that reset teh bios? | 00:02 |
| ^peanut^ | Planetary: no | 00:02 |
| Planetary | ^peanut^: ok | 00:02 |
| Jordan_U | Hasanibrahim: Actually, I'm not sure about my last comment. I think the problem has to do with where window's bootloader is looking for its files but I'm not sure on the details. Try asking in ##windows. | 00:02 |
| ^peanut^ | Planetary: usually you have a jumper on the MB that you can use to reset the BIOS back to factory defaults | 00:02 |

| Jordan_U | Hasanibrahim: I don't think that fdisk /mbr will help | 00:03 |
| ^peanut^ | Planetary: Try the BIOS reset first, then try installing, if that fails, run the memtest, if that fails, replace the cdrom cable. | 00:03 |
| Sunzaru | Art manager install is disabled, i can only download. here's a picture. http://imagebin.org/106394 am i missing something? i want to change my logon screen | 00:03 |

| DasEi | Milkkk: you set in bios which device to boot | 00:03 |
| === SortiE is now known as Acil | ||
| BluesKaj | Hasanibrahim, ok, but this could be a part of the prob , but you must decide which approach to take, the live cd grub fix ...fixmbr only works if you have a C prompt | 00:03 |
| Milkkk | DasEi: already did that | 00:03 |
| Planetary | ^peanut^: i can try other ram perhaps. thanks man | 00:04 |
| ^peanut^ | Planetary: ok good luck... =) | 00:04 |
| Hasanibrahim | Jordan_U: if it doesn't work, i will reinstall windows (with deleting ntfs) than try to fix grub again | 00:04 |
| Jordan_U | Hasanibrahim: Whatever the problem is it's not in the mbr, as grub is currently there and working fine. The problem is somewhere in the PBR, ntldr, or boot.ini file. | 00:04 |
| DasEi | Milkkk: and then no bootable medium found I guess | 00:04 |

| ZykoticK9 | Sunzaru, if you are using 9.10 or 10.04LTS then "good luck" with changing to login screen (I've never really been successful in my attempts, hope you have better luck) | 00:04 |
| Hasanibrahim | Jordan_U: can't i access boot.ini now? | 00:05 |
| Hasanibrahim | i can show it | 00:05 |
| DasEi | Milkkk: you said you had a running ubuntu, can try to instll grub2 from there to the usb, then tell grub to boot the *.img | 00:05 |
| Blue11 | having problems getting x to work properly on a compaq deskpro -- fresh install of ubuntu 10.04 (32 bit) -- worked fine, till I ran the updates, then nothing. | 00:05 |
| ^peanut^ | Sunzaru: have you tried "ubuntu tweak"? I have it, works nicely. | 00:06 |
| DasEi | Milkkk: thow easier once se unetbootin | 00:06 |
| Milkkk | DasEi: im running on osx | 00:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | Sunzaru, based on your image - i'm guessing that program will NOT allow you to change GDM screen (those appear to be the old version GDM themes BTW) | 00:06 |
| Jordan_U | Hasanibrahim: Yes, but I don't know the syntax very well personally. You can try backing it up and changing the "partition(1)" references to "partition(5)", but I may be completely off on that. | 00:06 |

| ubottu | cens0red: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 00:06 |
| DasEi | Milkkk: or run the image in a virtual drive, and install grub2 to the usb | 00:07 |
| Sunzaru | zykotick9 : kk ty much, giving ubuntu tweek a shot :D | 00:07 |
| ^peanut^ | cens0red: not sure if that will help as I have nvidia...but it's worth a go | 00:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | Sunzaru, i must admit to not having tried the "Ubuntu Tweek" method, so hopefully that will work. | 00:07 |
| ^peanut^ | "Ubuntu Tweak" not Tweet =) | 00:07 |
| ^peanut^ | ZykoticK9: you should check it out. it's neat | 00:08 |

| dean | anyone?? | 00:26 |
| DasEi | shell-lord: yes, least you should, haven't tried this, as if the image(the virthd) gets corrupted, mirror won't save you, better use two independant ones and tell mdadm to boot with one, also | 00:26 |
| Dulak | shell-lord: raiding partitions on the same disk gives you no protection on top of a performance hit. There is no reason to raid on a single disk since if the disk fails you lose everything just as if it weren't raid | 00:26 |

| Drone4four | I recently installed kubuntu-kde and it changed the boot splash theme from an orange logo on a black background to tourqoise on blue. How do I change it back? In KDE, I can navigate to Settings > System Settings > Appearance > Splash Screen but that's not what i'm looking for. I'm not trying to change KDE's Splash Screen that shows when you load the KDE window manager after logging in as a user. Further, I'm not trying to change grub's boot splash im | 00:45 |
| Drone4four | age. I want to change the boot splash theme which lasts 25 seconds that is shown between the time your select the kernel in grub2 and the time gdm loads. Right now it says "Kubuntu" in an ugly way and I want to change it back to what it was originally before I installed KDE. I want it to say "Ubuntu" as it should by default. How can I better describe what I am trying to do so I can search for it on Google? What Google search terms will yield the res | 00:45 |
| Drone4four | ults I am looking for? | 00:45 |
| FloodBot4 | Drone4four: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:45 |
| randy_ | kblessinggr: it is possible to also load the alternate cd off a thumb drive ... though of course a pain | 00:45 |
| Blue11 | Dr_Willis: I will check again. | 00:45 |
| shay27 | Hello , does someone here familiar with Tor anonymity service ? i installed Tor on my Ubuntu and i would like to ask few question regarding the tor features ? | 00:45 |
| Drone4four | sorry for the flood | 00:45 |
| kblessinggr | sec I'll try the ubergeek options | 00:45 |
| randy_ | kblessinggr: i'm assuming that your monitor is exceedingly old... | 00:45 |
| MFen | yeah, i know. i've manually mounted it a few times and never got any errors | 00:45 |
| enth | heavens | 00:45 |
| metalgeek | leagris, Thanks, so theoretically, how would i reset my machine to that sort of default position | 00:45 |
| ActionParsnip | metalgeek: not at all. There is usually more than one answer :) | 00:45 |
| leagris | shay27, I use tor, not en expert though ask | 00:45 |

| ActionParsnip | red__: high resolution for what? | 00:47 |
| shay27 | leagris: thanks , i would like to know if the its possible to gain new ip address via Tor and to ping other machine using the Tor ip ? | 00:47 |
| IceMaker | shay27: can i im u i have a q for u? | 00:47 |
| MFen | udisks mounted it with no errors | 00:47 |
| DasEi | kalo : still there in 10 | 00:47 |
| cehr | DasEi: yes, hardy. I can boot normally without problems, but rebooting will cause a freeze | 00:47 |
| meesebyte | I cannot edit /etc/default/grub it says permission denied | 00:47 |
| metalgeek | leagris, I want to kind of reset to one accountlike when i installed, but i dont want to use the account i made | 00:47 |
| leagris | shay27, I use tor + privoxy so no it can not send ICMP messages (pings) | 00:48 |
| Blue11 | Dr_Willis: there is nothing useful there... | 00:48 |
| hiexpo | kalo_, is it still in the repos? | 00:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Meesebyte: run: gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub ,and you have write access | 00:48 |
| DasEi | cehr: from a first glance nothing unusual, consider going to jaunty, as support ends, and is the system updated/graded ? | 00:48 |
| shay27 | leagris: ok , can i make the browser (mozilla) to gain new ip via Tor ? | 00:48 |
| DasEi | hiexpo: it is | 00:48 |
| leagris | metalgeek, I'd say, delete the account without deleting the user directory, then recreate immediatly | 00:49 |
| metalgeek | However i would like to copy the videos,doc,pics etc from that account | 00:49 |
| hiexpo | DasEi, ya i don't know cause i never install it that way | 00:49 |
| kalo_ | if it is, but now I do not inject packets | 00:49 |
| === Balbazar is now known as SortiE | ||
| meesebyte | thanks. And I don't see windows xp in that folder. How do I set it first? | 00:49 |
| leagris | shay27, with tor button at least, it go out with a new ip each time a new tcp connection is made. | 00:49 |
| ActionParsnip | metalgeek: if you simply delete all the hidden folders in the home dir and leave all the user data files in root recovery console then next login you will get all vanilla settings | 00:50 |
| DasEi | shay27: can also set manually, it's a socks4 proxy, on 9050 in default | 00:50 |
| charley__ | anyone know why Yahoo Games wont work on firefox? | 00:50 |
| cehr | DasEi: yes, the system is upgraded. perhaps upgrading the kernel would help? | 00:50 |

| RenatoSilva | Is Emerald still officially maintained? Is there any replacement for getting true vista-like decoration? | 00:51 |
| leagris | metalgeek, if you want to reset settings, then clear the user home directory then copy /etc/skel ther | 00:51 |
| test34 | ActionParsnip, maybe should delete hidden files too? | 00:51 |
| ActionParsnip | meesebyte: you don't add dualboot stuff in that file, its elsewhere, that factoid will help | 00:51 |
| rautamiekka | By applying a registry hack, Window$ 7 permits multiple simultaneous Remote Desktop connections. Is there such for Ubuntu ? | 00:51 |
| meesebyte | Kthx | 00:51 |
| DasEi | cehr: does /var/log/kern.log offer any hints ? or messages in same dir ? | 00:51 |
| leagris | metalgeek, /etc/skel contains default home directory content after creation | 00:51 |
| shay27 | DasEi: can i open the browser from command line including the socks parameters ? | 00:52 |
| ActionParsnip | RenatoSilva: its not maintained but is in the repo | 00:52 |
| test34 | rautamiekka, there is no such registry in ubuntu;) | 00:52 |
| random_hunter_ | ActionParsnip, Sorry, over hear, random_hunter is metalgeek. Sorry, I was geting lag, opened another connection with ssl much better now. I got your last post but didn't understand all of it | 00:52 |
| Dr_Willis | !emerald | RenatoSilva | 00:52 |
| ubottu | RenatoSilva: emerald is an obsolete window decorator for compiz. It's unsupported and unmaintained, making issues with it very hard to diagnose and fix. There are no known, supported alternatives. | 00:52 |
| ActionParsnip | test34: indeed, gives vanilla settings next boot | 00:52 |
| === random_hunter_ is now known as metalgeek | ||

| kblessinggr | anyone ever managed to get a Linksys WUSB11 wifi adapter to work in 10.04? | 00:53 |
| kalo_ | 9 with ubuntu, if I injected 10 ubuntu packages but no, there are some moyivo by what happens this | 00:53 |
| DasEi | IceMaker: I'm no good in wireless, but basics : | 00:53 |
| DasEi | !wireless | 00:53 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 00:53 |
| metalgeek | sh*t | 00:53 |
| ActionParsnip | rautamiekka: you can connect to a seperate screen, I believe. You can use x forwarding and just run the app from the terminal. You may not need the full desktop as many apps have web interfaces and ncurses interfaces which are much more elegant | 00:54 |
| kblessinggr | DasEi: however while mine is listed as supported and "just plug in" it doesn't show up says no wireless device detected | 00:54 |
| RenatoSilva | Dr_Willis: That's bad :( I like the vista style, I don't want to leave it. I think I'll continue using it. Didn't have any problem yet in 10.4. | 00:54 |
| charley__ | anyone know why Yahoo Games wont work on my firefox? | 00:55 |
| RenatoSilva | ActionParsnip: ^ | 00:55 |
| woodyjlw | Dr_Willis, thanks for info. where would I find .wine sorry still learning linux here | 00:55 |
| kblessinggr | says "Just choose wireless network in networking, and works. Xubuntu 6.06." , but it doesn't do that for me" | 00:55 |
| ActionParsnip | kblessinggr: the make and model is moot. If you run: sudo lshw -C network ,you will see the chip and you can find guides using that | 00:55 |
| Dr_Willis | RenatoSilva: i dont bend over too far backewards for eyecandy. | 00:55 |
| IceMaker | DasEi: i`ll take a look but i don't know nothing almoust about linux | 00:55 |
| kblessinggr | ActionParsnip: why would it be moot, its exactly a 2.8 firmware which is listed as supported | 00:55 |
| cehr | DasEi: the only red flags in kern.log are "[ 20.495354] ACPI: Looking for DSDT in initramfs... error, file /DSDT.aml not found." and various usb errors (all usb ports seem to work though) | 00:55 |
| Dr_Willis | woodyjlw: .wine is in your home dir. its made the first time you run wine. You may want tor ead up on some wine basics | 00:55 |
| ActionParsnip | RenatoSilva: it does work, just nobody is coding for it but the code works. I use it on my laptop just dandy | 00:56 |
| Jordan_U | woodyjlw: I doubt that just copying the directory over is enough. If nothing else it'll probably need some registry keys. | 00:56 |
| cens0red | what's 10.10 going to be called? | 00:56 |
| kblessinggr | ActionParsnip: nothing popped up on that command | 00:56 |
| DasEi | cehr: rebuild initramfs then, by : sudo update-initramfs -u (and be aware you can directly dist-upgrade hardy to lucid!!!) | 00:56 |
| ActionParsnip | kblessinggr: because linksys don't make wireless chips. Its most likely an atheros or broadcom chip. The chip is what you are driving | 00:57 |
| metalgeek | When i wanna change password with nickserve, what is the <key> arg | 00:57 |

| DasEi | metalgeek: #freenode | 00:57 |
| RenatoSilva | ActionParsnip: ok I know, I just thought that the vista decoration was so cool that people would create a replacement. I heard of Jasper | 00:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Hiexpo: what is it? | 00:57 |
| cehr | DasEi: will try lucid if nothing else works, thanks | 00:58 |

| lukas2511 | hi! does anyone know why the ubuntu splash-screen (on boot) is stretched, but if i boot from the install disc it's just centered.. i want it centered on boot because it looks kinda crappy if it is strechted :-/ | 00:58 |
| kblessinggr | ActionParsnip: but it'd still show me something with that command wouldn't it? | 00:58 |
| woodyjlw | jordan_U, what kind of regestry keys are you thinking I will need | 00:58 |
| Jordan_U | woodyjlw: No idea, and I don't think it will be trivial to find out. But try asking in #winehq | 00:59 |
| gianniunix | hi help | 00:59 |
| gianniunix | to boot me it flashes the led of the keyboard | 00:59 |
| ActionParsnip | kblessinggr: check: lsusb ,too see if its listed there. You can use the 8 character hexid to find guides | 00:59 |

| charley__ | anyone know why Yahoo Games wont work on my firefox? | 00:59 |
| ActionParsnip | gianniunix: which? Your pc is telling you stuff | 01:00 |
| ActionParsnip | charley__: no java most likely | 01:00 |
| charley__ | i got the addon | 01:00 |
| Jordan_U | ActionParsnip: It runs the entire desktop environment as root by default, that should probably tell you enough about it :) | 01:00 |
| charley__ | it should be able to run java applets | 01:00 |
| ActionParsnip | Jordan_U: puppy does that.... | 01:00 |

| metalgeek | ActionParsnip, Could you possibly explain this alittle further, sorry. metalgeek: if you simply delete all the hidden folders in the home dir and leave all the user data files in root recovery console then next login you will get all vanilla settings | 01:01 |
| gianniunix | when start the PC after the grub, all black and I flash the three led of the keyboard DasEi | 01:02 |
| * metalgeek scratches head | 01:02 | |

| jayp910 | is there a hardware channel on this server | 01:03 |
| Dr_Willis | gianniunix: you mean the capslock led and other leds are all flashing? | 01:03 |
| metalgeek | #hardware | 01:03 |
| Dr_Willis | jayp910: try #hardware ? | 01:03 |
| ActionParsnip | metalgeek: the hidden folders store all the config for all apps including gnome,compiz and whatnot. If you delete them and an app is used it will see the config is missing and generate a vanilla config for you. If you delete all hidden files this will happen for everything | 01:03 |
| DasEi | red: which g-card ? | 01:03 |
| Dr_Willis | red__: you did install the proper video card drivers for your video card? | 01:03 |

| gianniunix | DasEi nothing to make | 01:05 |
| songer | hello | 01:05 |
| wiesshund | red__, sounds like you dont have the hardware driver enabled? look in system > admin > hardware drivers ? | 01:05 |
| Dr_Willis | metalgeek: its worth learning what all those 'hidden and other special' dirs do. :) and dont touch the .gvfs dir either | 01:05 |
| DasEi | gianniunix: tried another kernel ? | 01:05 |
| red__ | Dr ? it runs vista | 01:05 |
| ActionParsnip | metalgeek: yep, you can make a new folder if you want and simply move them. I advise you do it in recovery mode root console so the files aren't in use | 01:05 |
| Stameni | whats the shell command to unzip files ? | 01:05 |
| ActionParsnip | red__: you haven't configured your driver yet | 01:06 |
| Dr_Willis | red__: I thouigh pakard bell went belly under ages ago.. still How old is that laptop? | 01:06 |
| songer | i'm getting this: E: Type 'n' is not known on line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-x-swat-x-updates-lucid.list | 01:06 |
| kblessinggr | well that's annoying, I got into liveCD mode, with the nomodeset option, installed UBuntu, rebooted, and I got no grub or anything to press 'e' at, so naturally it goes straight to "Out of Sync" | 01:06 |
| red__ | wies looking now | 01:06 |
| gianniunix | yes DasEi | 01:06 |
| gianniunix | :( | 01:06 |
| red__ | action how i do that | 01:06 |
| wiesshund | red__, roughly, how old is the hardware? ubuntu doesnt put in alot of support for hardware considered long outdated unless you use an old distro | 01:06 |
| DasEi | Stameni: err... unzip ?! | 01:06 |
| ActionParsnip | Songer: edit the file and look at line 2 | 01:06 |
| Stameni | DesEi: zip -qr file_path destination_path | 01:07 |
| gianniunix | how to solve? | 01:07 |
| Stameni | is to compress archive, yes ? | 01:07 |
| ActionParsnip | red__: run it in a terminal (applications -> accessories) | 01:07 |
| red__ | wies 5 year old | 01:07 |
| DasEi | Stameni: man unzip tells you | 01:07 |
| Stameni | but it wont work | 01:07 |

| === xcv is now known as DaZ | ||
| ActionParsnip | Songer: that ppa is hugely experimental so you can very much expect issues with it | 01:08 |
| DasEi | Stameni: same for packing, man zip | 01:08 |
| ActionParsnip | red__: scroll up. I already told you | 01:08 |
| DasEi | gianniunix: tried another kernel ? same thing ? | 01:08 |

| cheri703 | I keep getting errors processing "oss4-dkms" | 01:10 |
| cheri703 | over and over... | 01:10 |
| DasEi | gianniunix: so you will have to boot live again and then rebuild the initramfs, then again re-check grub | 01:10 |
| songer | ActionParsnip, if i just tipe: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list | 01:10 |
| peta | DasEi: OMFG! of course!!! :) | 01:10 |
| ActionParsnip | songer: no, sudo is NOT used for gedit. And you aren't editting that file, reread your error message | 01:11 |

| === xcv is now known as DaZ | ||
| gianniunix | DasEi what's a command^ | 01:12 |
| songer | so hoew is it: gksudo gedit | 01:13 |
| red__ | action i typed that in | 01:14 |
| DasEi | gianniunix: in first, same approach as for grub, mount /-bind, chroot (/proc /sys /dev and /dev/pts) | 01:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Songer: correct, that will correctly launch gedit. Then you can open the file you need to edit | 01:14 |

| ChrisBuchholz | Hey, i have been researching the topic of installing ubuntu on my macbook pro, and now i have come to point where i need to boot ubuntu. I have tried to do it with a 9.04 cd, but i want to directly install lucid so i need to do it from a sdcard or external harddrive since i have no empty dvds laying around. I have tried a lot of things, but nothing that worked, so how would i go about doing this? I have to create boot disk fr | 01:23 |

| red__ | weiser it say i must be set as root | 01:29 |
| Dr_Willis | songer: line 2 of that file proberly has a typo. | 01:29 |
| CkhiKuzad | the installer, Dr_Willis. it gets to the eyecandy-ish installer part, where it shows the ubuntu "circle" then a progress bar, then i get a little error | 01:30 |
| CkhiKuzad | that says /cdrom needs unmounted. but i cant unmount it from a virtual CLI session | 01:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Songer: check the 2nd line of the file, see what's what | 01:30 |
| Dr_Willis | CkhiKuzad: Hmm. I cant recall ysing unetbootin to do an install lately.. I normally make a usb-installer with the usb-disk-creator tool. It seems to work a bit better then unetbootin | 01:30 |
| hydester | anybody have pidgin running with video chat on google talk? | 01:30 |
| CkhiKuzad | can i get rid of this in the mtab thing? my cd drive is burnt out, so i dont need it | 01:30 |

| CkhiKuzad | Dr_Willis, what do you mean? | 01:32 |
| Dr_Willis | CkhiKuzad: it could be its having some issues because your 'live os' partition is on the same Hd you are installing to., | 01:32 |
| mercedes | hello | 01:32 |
| Dr_Willis | CkhiKuzad: so what is your drive partition layout looking like? | 01:32 |

| mercedes | noo teng | 01:33 |
| CkhiKuzad | Dr_willis, how do i make it force disable the /cdrom thing? i tried umount -f | 01:33 |

| cablop | lol, nope, some trackers just ban azureus cause azureus starts many threads and trackers got errors at trying to ddeal with just one torrent client or so | 01:40 |
| slimjimflim | is there a way to access the other channels or to forward them to another /dev/* ? | 01:40 |

| cablop | never understood that, also my isp seems to have it but not utorrent, and utorrent is the best ans fastest of all in windows :) i got my ubuntu installlers with it ;) | 01:41 |
| CkhiKuzad | The install worked until it decided /cdrom NEEDED to be unmounted. but my other errors didnt happen | 01:41 |
| sebsebseb | cablop: Ktorrent is probably the best in Desktop Linux, also if you really want uTorrent you can Wine it | 01:41 |
| Myion | uTorrent works really well with wine | 01:41 |
| cablop | i wined it in the past, but i'm willing to use ubuntu as pure as i could :) | 01:42 |
| cablop | except the things that i had to place in the vm :P | 01:42 |
| DasEi | CkhiKuzad: that is, if you try to boot it, get an error message ? | 01:42 |
| sebsebseb | cablop: using only Gnome apps and such would be a bit sucky, mixing a bit with KDE apps is good though :) | 01:42 |
| sebsebseb | cablop: You know what Gnome and KDE are right? | 01:42 |
| cablop | yup, KDE too, i mean, the less i wine, the better for me :) | 01:42 |

I wanna get the most for the desktop, but wondering , does it matter if the stand alone server is ont he slightly less cpu? (also, I choose which of the two has 1.5 vs. 2 gb ram).. any inpurt | 02:27 |

| moke99 | arau, not entirely true for web serving though eh? | 02:28 |
| hiexpo | thanks pure_hate | 02:28 |
| ^peanut^ | moke99: a home web server. his computers will do the trick just fine | 02:29 |
| moke99 | but ok, thanks... so basically its ok, to do all the 'junk' on the server.. n try and get something out for the desktop ? (as my computers one by one this month burnt up, died, or got fomratted by windows cd's by MICROSHIT .. although I revbuilt the disks... some sector damage occurred and now my last laptop is going down too ) | 02:29 |
| arai | moke99: Unless you're hosting web-applications, but still, your usage on the desktop is likely to be much higher CPU wise. | 02:29 |
| ^peanut^ | moke99: if it were a 24/7 production system, then oh heck no | 02:29 |
| kblessinggr | is there a possible reason why no matter what wep key (or even open) I use with my wireless adapter that it tries for minutes, and then asks for the wep key again? yet on all my other machines they connect without an issue. | 02:29 |
| arai | moke99: if you're doing some serious hosting, you won't be doing it at home with a spare "server" anyways | 02:30 |

| baldpatches | Cheers Peanut | 02:35 |
| seidos | moke99, so locate doesn't have a parameter to search for binary files? I know pretty much nothing about bash. I don't think writing a script in bash is in the cards for me. But I'll think about it some more, maybe try to work on it when I get a clue. Thank you. | 02:35 |
| moke99 | hmm arai... ok thanks.. no, it shlouldn't really be too divergent from any standard layout... | 02:36 |

| arai | if you're doing simple p2p sharing via samba, the ubuntu defaults should work fine, if you're setting up PDC/SDCs and other weirdness, IMO, you shouldn't be using Ubuntu for it | 02:36 |

| Alien_Overlord | Anyone get a 1920x1080 resolution on intel GM45?\ | 02:40 |
| moke99 | Alien_Overlord, GZUS.. is that on a desktop chipset then or a mobile? | 02:41 |
| Alien_Overlord | Mobile | 02:41 |
| moke99 | and an external monitor? | 02:41 |
| moke99 | LCD? with native res 1920? | 02:41 |
| bartek | Hi there, via the new /etc/init directory, how can I guarantee these will be started on startup? I added a new one and it just won't start when the system boots, must be done manually. | 02:41 |
| Alien_Overlord | Moke: yes | 02:41 |
| arai | moke99: I'm personally a fan of Gentoo, but CentOS should do nicely as well. Really anything that has less defaults turned on, and is more friendly to tuning | 02:41 |
| Alien_Overlord | native 1080p on windows | 02:41 |
| moke99 | the GM45 is pretty problematic chipset (mobile), and I could reocmmend to rather accept some down perfomance on running a less res than the lcd's native... the gm45m really realyl sucks balls mate | 02:42 |
| moke99 | and thank you arai... I was looking up centOs the other day and been reading a loty.. cos I used to be on mandrake!! lol when i starte don linux like 1`0 yrs ago, then was off linux for abt 5 yrs now.. and found ubuntu to be nice for some programs I wanted... | 02:43 |
| moke99 | but ye.. gentoo , centOS, look nice and im still ashamed i never gave freebsd a chance over thes emany yrs .. not even tried it sigh | 02:43 |
| hiexpo | remember that ole saying goes do not bite the hand that feeds you | 02:43 |
| Alien_Overlord | Really? There isnt anything I can do then? | 02:43 |
| traskmind | I have dual-monitors set up on my laptop (my laptop's LCD and my TV) and I have it set up so they both show the same screen, but I want to be able to sometimes put my laptop display to sleep while I use the TV display. Is there a way I can do this? | 02:43 |
| guidefreitas | Can i install Ubuntu Cloud in a machine without a hardware virtualization processor? | 02:43 |
| arai | Ubuntu is sweet for a drop-in windows replacement, but my history with Gentoo, or even mainstream Debian makes me prefer that to Ubuntu for anything else | 02:43 |
| moke99 | anyway thx arai.. andya.. i have mixed impressions of ubuntu being a decent serv distro... toodles! :) | 02:44 |

| hjst | Why does the message list in Evolution use a monospace font, and how do I change it? I can't find anything in the Evolution prefs, and googling suggests it's a gnome font config issue, but I can't find where to change the fonts. | 02:51 |

| Raydiation | ssbpls: hehe, any specific questions you wanna ask? this is mostly a support chan | 03:02 |
| wiesshund | Mspiggy, you do not have system >administration < network tools ? | 03:02 |

| Hasanibrahim | my keyboard is not working properly and everything is like 35s film squares | 03:04 |
| arai | Hasanibrahim: You really want to install grub from linux. I don't actually know the steps for doing it in windows. | 03:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | keith1, try running this apt-fix command in a terminal "sudo apt-get -f install" | 03:04 |
| keith1 | all right..brb | 03:04 |
| prariedogux | anyone having a hard time getting samba to mount shared directories on a network? | 03:05 |
| arai | Hasanibrahim: (assuming your boot device is /dev/sda) from the terminal, run: grub-install --no-floppy /dev/sda | 03:05 |
| Jordan_U | arai: Hasanibrahim: That command won't work from a LiveCD. | 03:05 |
| Mspiggy | does it matter if i installed it via usb | 03:05 |
| arai | .. well fail for the livecd | 03:06 |

| hylian | is there a way to connect my ethernet network printer and connect it wirelessly to a modem and a wireless n router network? (no wires between the printer and hopefully a 80.211 device) | 03:07 |
| keith1 | awesome ZykoticK9..I love Linux help | 03:07 |
| Jordan_U | Hasanibrahim: Ok, I can walk you through it. Do you know how to mount your Ubuntu partition? How comfortable are you with the terminal? | 03:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | keith1, :) | 03:07 |
| keith1 | Why can't other software help be so easy? | 03:07 |
| arai | keith1: Because they don't have penguins for middle managers | 03:07 |
| [Raiden] | may be grub-install --root-directory=/media/mountedrootdir --no-floppy /dev/sda | 03:07 |
| arai | Seriously, you don't want to talk to tier-2 tech support | 03:08 |
| prariedogux | whats the grub question? | 03:08 |
| Hasanibrahim | Jordan_U: in fact my situation at this moment is very bad because live cd is working very very slow and i am getting difficulty following your replies | 03:08 |
| prariedogux | i just had to reinstall grub2 after installing opensuse on my ubuntu machine. thats pretty easy from live cd | 03:08 |
| krainboltgreene | Is there a way to completely reset an Ubuntu server install? | 03:08 |
| arai | prariedogux: Hasanibrahim is trying to reinstall grub2 at the MBR when windows blew it away, also setting up a chainloader for windows | 03:08 |

| CodySmith | i got a question | 03:09 |
| arai | krainboltgreene: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/<device you want to wipe clean> | 03:09 |
| prariedogux | recover grub2 | 03:09 |
| prariedogux | pop in live cd or usb karmic or later | 03:09 |
| prariedogux | 1 mount ubuntu partitiion by clicking it in places list | 03:09 |
| prariedogux | 2 verify grub version ie grub2 or legacy by going to filesystem/boot/grub | 03:09 |
| prariedogux | look for menu.lst legacy, or grub.cfg for grub2 | 03:09 |
| FloodBot4 | prariedogux: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:09 |
| prariedogux | 3 verify partition correct | 03:09 |
| arai | don't do it unless you want to loose everything though | 03:09 |
| hylian | let me make more sense. | 03:09 |
| Prez00 | whenever I go to a page that has java applet, the java process consumes a big chunk of processor, even after leaving page, I have to kill java process. this is on 10.04, any ideas? | 03:09 |
| CodySmith | why is ubuntu 10.04 so slow on my pc | 03:09 |
| CodySmith | its a brand new pc | 03:09 |
| krainboltgreene | arai: I basically want to start from a scratch Ubuntu. | 03:09 |
| hylian | can i connect my ethernet network printer to a wireless n router, without wires? | 03:09 |
| arai | krainboltgreene: just put another liveCD in and start the install process over | 03:09 |
| krainboltgreene | arai: I said Server. There is no CD drive ;) | 03:10 |
| arai | USB port? | 03:10 |
| krainboltgreene | .. | 03:10 |
| keith1 | Ok I got one more thing..dunno if I should chat it here so forgive me if it is for another forum. Any thought on the Chinese version Apad running Android 2.2. I ask only because I've messed with it on Linux..anyone think it is worth anything? | 03:10 |
| JoshStrobl | hylian, you will need to connect your network printer to your motem or wireless router via USB or network cable. | 03:10 |
| krainboltgreene | It's on a server :P | 03:10 |
| Jordan_U | Hasanibrahim: Why don't you boot into windows, get the directions there, then come back to the LiveCD? | 03:10 |
| arai | krainboltgreene: And does your server have USB ports? | 03:10 |
| prariedogux | sorry, i just got flood warned | 03:10 |
| krainboltgreene | arai: Probably, but it's a VPS. It's not like I can walk up to it. | 03:11 |
| Jordan_U | krainboltgreene: However you installed initially, do it again. | 03:11 |
| krainboltgreene | Jordan_U: Currently not possible. | 03:11 |
| Hasanibrahim | Jordan_U: i was thinking about this really i thought maybe there is a one line command to do it so i tried to come here directly | 03:11 |
| nemesis1911 | if anyone can help me out.. on how to in MSI USB WiFi 802.11n with the software found on the ralinktech site.. that would be kewl | 03:11 |
| wiesshund | hylian, what hardware do you have to try to do this with? | 03:11 |
| nemesis1911 | pm me | 03:11 |
| Blue11 | !hcl | 03:11 |
| ubottu | For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection | 03:11 |
| arai | krainboltgreene: If your VPS is managed, you should have an option to destroy it and create a new one with a freshly installed OS | 03:11 |
| krainboltgreene | arai: Normally I would. At this time I don't. | 03:12 |
| Jordan_U | Hasanibrahim: If you are already comfortable with the terminal, and you're using an Ubuntu 10.04 LiveCD then it's just "sudo mount /dev/sdXY /mnt" then "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sdX" | 03:12 |
| prariedogux | hasa i just sent you your fix | 03:13 |

| droundloopy | surfing anonymously anyone need updated howto | 03:13 |
| krainboltgreene | So I'm guessing there is no "sudo apt-get revert" or something? That seems weird. | 03:14 |

| prariedogux | anyone handy with samba ? | 03:14 |
| droundloopy | krainboltgreene any ideas? | 03:14 |
| bobertdos | !medibuntu | Sunzaru | 03:14 |
| ubottu | Sunzaru: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 03:14 |
| bobertdos | Sunzaru: Specifically, you want libdvdcss2 | 03:15 |

| hiexpo | Sunzaru, add mediaubuntu repos | 03:15 |
| droundloopy | bobertdos any ideas? | 03:15 |
| bobertdos | bastid_raZor: Indeed they are sir | 03:16 |
| wiesshund | sudo apt-get remove | 03:16 |
| Jordan_U | krainboltgreene: There are also some other tricks for re-installing in this situation if nothing there looks workable. | 03:16 |
| __name__ | good morning | 03:16 |
| Sunzaru | ahh kk, i'll give that a shot, thnx guys/girls | 03:16 |
| bastid_raZor | bobertdos: can you pastebin your /etc/ssh/sshd_config ? | 03:16 |
| __name__ | are any problems with eSATA known that make ubuntu refuse to boot (it boots up to a blackscreen when the eSATA device is attached and continues to gdm as soon as that is disconnected)? | 03:17 |

| p-dawg | Hey, if I have a group id like 1000, is there a command to get the group name from that id? | 03:21 |
| bobertdos | bastid_raZor: I'm sure it's something exceedingly silly -- it usually turns out that way, but I for the life of me cannot figure it out | 03:21 |
| prariedogux | hi mspiggy | 03:22 |

| Mspiggy | hey | 03:22 |
| prariedogux | where are you stuck? | 03:23 |
| p-dawg | ibnarrashidi: but that command takes usernames as input, no? | 03:23 |

| p-dawg | I mean ibnarrashid, sorry :D. | 03:23 |
| bastid_raZor | bobertdos: i have keys setup for my network too, the only difference is you have AuthorizedKeysFile %h/.ssh/authorized_keys2 uncommented, mine is commented and UsePAM no, mine is Yes. i followed the guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/Keys to setting all 4 of my boxes up. | 03:23 |

| ibnarrashid | p-dawg: You are trying to find your group name aren't you? then just "id -gn" nothing after it | 03:25 |
| p-dawg | ibnarrashid: no, I know my group name. I'm doing a script to pick a random group and then do something to it. | 03:25 |
| arai | p-dawg: that sounds safe | 03:26 |
| p-dawg | arai: haha, it's not like I'm going to do anything more than printing them or logging them, etc. | 03:26 |
| Mspiggy | does ubuntu usually have some discoloration | 03:27 |
| bobertdos | bastid_raZor: Yeah, that's where I started. My main problem is that I don't have the luxury of using the ssh-copy-id script because I'm on a Windows client. | 03:27 |
| dominicdinada | is trying to figure out why the most recent update killed all my samba shares ....... | 03:28 |
| p-dawg | this is what I have so far: "id -G | sed 's/1000\|100\|0//g;s/ /\n/g;s/^\n\|\n$//g' | shuf -n 1". So from that I get a random group id, now all I need is to get that group's name :D. | 03:28 |
| RxDx | please, im using Ubuntu 10.04 and changed the layout of my xchat (channel tab to the top of user list) .. how can i restore to the default setting? | 03:29 |

| prariedogux | domini, yeah! | 03:30 |
| prariedogux | ive been asking about samba too | 03:30 |
| prariedogux | last week everything was great | 03:30 |
| prariedogux | this week, i can't mount any shared directories | 03:30 |
| dominicdinada | i think i found my issue | 03:30 |
| d9500 | i'm using xorg-edgers ppa, and, after the most recent update, X is frozen (mostly..I can still move the mouse, but clicking an icon does not open the program, nor can I clock gnome-panel items.) Removing the ppa and downgrading all packages fixes the issue, as does running in low-graphics mode. | 03:31 |
| dominicdinada | but do i need it mapped to the idmap Gid ? | 03:31 |
| d9500 | how would I go about finding which component, xorg/libdrm/mesa/etc. iscausing the freezeup? | 03:31 |
| deexannihilate | I have an ALS4000 sound card. I was on here a few days ago trying to get it to work, but we weren't able to figure it out. I can not get sound to come out of the speakers.

| twoflowers | will ubuntu netbook remix work with a regular laptop? possibly even better? | 03:34 |
| tensorpudding | there's nothing inherently special about netbooks that it wouldn't work with them | 03:35 |
| prariedogux | pureshine | 03:35 |
| tensorpudding | assuming that your laptop supports the same architecture as the version of netbook remix | 03:35 |
| prariedogux | apache2.2.bin | 03:36 |
| prariedogux | and | 03:36 |
| prariedogux | lib-apache2-mod-dnssd | 03:36 |

| ubuser | can someone help me with something? | 03:40 |
| prariedogux | such as? | 03:41 |
| ubuser | i have a pc with ubuntu 5.10 and it comes with totem player but it wont play an avi file... | 03:41 |
| prariedogux | 5.10? | 03:41 |
| prariedogux | wow | 03:41 |
| ubuser | its not connected to the internet either, so what should i use | 03:41 |
| ubuser | yea... it doesnt have net | 03:41 |
| prariedogux | you need the codecs | 03:41 |
| bobertdos | ubuser: Is there any particular reason you're on such an old version? | 03:41 |
| ubuser | im running 9.10 on this pc | 03:41 |
| prariedogux | for that youll need to get online | 03:41 |
| ubuser | i cant carry it on a cd | 03:42 |
| ubuser | or get an avi player? | 03:42 |
| ubuser | divx wont work? | 03:42 |
| ubuser | ive tried a lot | 03:42 |
| ubuser | for instance burning the avi file... | 03:42 |
| gafir | hello, in ubuntu. the equivalent of modifying httpd.conf is to modify /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default? | 03:42 |
| ubuser | but its like 700 megs | 03:42 |
| prariedogux | if you update, ie reinstall to a more up to date version, you can usually double click the file, and it will auto search the plugin for you. if not, you can also download codec packs from medibuntu | 03:43 |
| ubuser | tried gettin a game maker on it and it doesnt unzip rars.. lol | 03:43 |
| bastid_raZor | ubuser: you would have to convert the avi file before burning it to disk for it to be playable in a DVD player. | 03:43 |
| giggles | Hi everybody | 03:43 |
| bobertdos | !aptoncd | This is one way you can do it, ubuser | 03:43 |
| ubottu | This is one way you can do it, ubuser: APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers - See also !offline | 03:43 |
| ubuser | ive downloaded all updates | 03:43 |
| prariedogux | xbmc comes loaded with codecs | 03:44 |
| fourcolors | hi how can I change the permission of a directory and all it's files/ directories under it to 755 ? | 03:44 |
| prariedogux | chmod | 03:44 |
| bobertdos | ubuser: You can use AptOnCd to carry ubuntu-restricted-extras with you to your other system. | 03:44 |
| fourcolors | just chmod 755 ... thats it? | 03:44 |
| bastid_raZor | fourcolors: chmod -r 755 directory | 03:44 |
| fourcolors | bastid_raZor: ok thanks | 03:45 |
| bobertdos | ubuser: However, since you're using such an old version, the package may have incompatible dependencies. | 03:45 |
| bastid_raZor | fourcolors: it's -R not -r | 03:45 |
| ubuser | 140 megs | 03:45 |
| prariedogux | chmod a+rwx | 03:45 |
| ubuser | i can burn src files it should work | 03:45 |
| fourcolors | ok thanks | 03:46 |
| prariedogux | and path | 03:46 |
| bobertdos | ubuser: Hey, if you don't mind compiling, more power to you, man! | 03:46 |
| ubuser | 365 megs now damn | 03:47 |

It embraces hospitality, caring about others, being able to go the extra mile for the sake of others.

| nullwire | Buffalo Linkstation NAS | 04:15 |
| Mr_Sonoma | new2ubuntu77, give me a sec to read what it is your trying to do. Please understand my concern is that your new, admit you don't really know what your doing, and your doing stuff in the root directory. Things can go VERY badly if you mess around in root and do the wrong thing... | 04:15 |
| tucemiux | "buffalo"?!? | 04:15 |

| new2ubuntu77 | Ok, take ur time Sonoma | 04:15 |
| new2ubuntu77 | tut I am reading... http://wwww.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9190800&postcount=45 | 04:16 |
| tucemiux | what does that have to do with ubuntu? | 04:16 |
| octavio-rdz | I have some computer desktop and some labtops so I want that the files are sync. with each other computer but I dont want to use dropbox nor ubuntu one.... I want to have in my own computer | 04:16 |
| nullwire | its an NAS im trying to mount, and I'm using ubuntu | 04:16 |
| wiesshund | Am i wrong in thinking that installing ubuntu netbook on an older laptop probably isnt the best distro for it? | 04:17 |
| tucemiux | nullwire, i still dont get what the problem is with ubuntu though, you mean you have a file server and you want us to figure out how to make it work so that you can connect ubuntu to it? | 04:18 |
| meesebyte | I put DEFAULT=5 in /etc/default/grub but it still boots the first menu item first | 04:18 |
| octavio-rdz | wiesshund: how old? ... I would pick a debian for old hardware | 04:19 |
| nullwire | It works on my windows machine. I can access it on the network without any configuration. I would like to access it on my linux machine to use as a hub between the two. | 04:19 |
| froek | nullwire: on your windows machine, go to terminal and 'ping' it | 04:19 |
| Mr_Sonoma | new2ubuntu77, ok.........here's the thing .scripts (directory) goes in your /home/new2ubuntu/ folder where it shows you "sh ~/.scripts/compizsnap-left.sh" under set command 0. the ~ is a relative path to YOUR /home | 04:19 |
| froek | nullwire: it will resolve to an ip you can use in smbmount | 04:19 |
| wiesshund | octavio-rdz, the person has a dell d600, and they installed netbook on it, and ofcourse it isnt exactly working right | 04:19 |
| new2ubuntu77 | Mr Sonoma I should probable learn how to copy from the desktop and paste into the term with a terminal, I'm just used to a windows point and click envierment | 04:19 |
| tucemiux | octavio-rdz, i dont know how to do that with more than 2 computers but I synchronize my laptop with my desktop using unison, unison works with ssh so you can synchronize securely locally and remotely, the trick is to first install and configure an ssh server on your desktop | 04:19 |
| nullwire | Ok, thank you | 04:20 |
| new2ubuntu77 | oh, so I was to high up in the dir tree huh? that's good to know. | 04:20 |
| Mr_Sonoma | new2ubuntu77, so first thing you need to do is go back to the beginning of that tutorial and follow the directions EXACTLY. the cd command without anything following it takes you back to your /home | 04:20 |

| xangua | like i said you need to pay for pop or imap service giggles | 04:22 |
| yonahw | yahoo allows POP3 in Canada and elsewhere for free but not in the US | 04:22 |
| Mr_Sonoma | new2ubuntu77, that tutorial gives you shell commands follow the first part where you create the directories exactly and do it in command line | 04:22 |
| yonahw | that is it depends where you opened your yahoo account | 04:22 |
| octavio-rdz | tucemiux: actually I read the other day that now they do, they accept POP3 | 04:23 |
| Switz | Yeah, that is what i thought. Self hosted email FTW | 04:23 |

| tucemiux | octavio-rdz, if they accept POP3 you still have to pay for it, as far as I know | 04:23 |
| giggles | Does anyone know anything about getting myspace mail to work with Evolution? | 04:23 |
| trism | meesebyte: pastebin /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 04:24 |
| ari_stress | good morning, guys. any opinion on: apt-get dist-upgrade is still needed to upgrade kernel. i thought i read somewhere it's deprecated? | 04:24 |
| meesebyte | trism: Ok | 04:24 |
| Mr_Sonoma | new2ubuntu77, open a terminal and follow those directions exactly. after the first part you can go back to the GUI | 04:24 |
| yonahw | tucemiux: I know I have friends who just went to www.yahoo.ca and opened an account and get free pop3 from it. | 04:24 |
| octavio-rdz | tucemiux: I am pretty sure that I read that it was free, they recently changed that | 04:24 |
| tricktrickoli | ye tu kk1 qui parle francais? | 04:24 |
| hoop | anyone see my question? | 04:24 |
| xangua | giggles: you can try this http://v3.izymail.com/register.aspx i use it to get imap with hotmail | 04:25 |
| Mr_Sonoma | new2ubuntu77, the first 2 blocks of instructions need to be done from command line | 04:25 |
| tucemiux | giggles, so im hearing through the grapevine that POP3 does work on yahoo, I guess you have to enable POP3 on yahoo first, if that is true, I mean | 04:25 |
| new2ubuntu77 | Ok, I did follow the tut exectly the first time but the .scripts folder was not, ohhhh shit tornado I'm out of here!!!!!! | 04:25 |
| tucemiux | hoop, no -- you can post again all in ***one line***, if anyone has an answer they will surely reply | 04:26 |
| yonahw | octavio-rdz: I just logged into my yahoo account that I use for spam and it says to upgrade in order to activate pop3 | 04:26 |
| hoop | i previously had 9.10 installed and updated to 10.04 via the update command script.. i now wish to reformat and have downloaded the newest version but the cd/dvd's i have created of the destop-i386.iso wont work and freezes up.. any advice? | 04:26 |
| giggles | tucemiux do what? | 04:26 |

| mib_mib | hi guys, permissions question: if i have a folder /usr/local/bin/myfolder/myprogam.pid and a user 'myuser', what permissions does 'myuser' need in order to read/write a pid file in 'myfolder'? Does he need write access to EVERY FOLDER on the path, including /usr and /usr/local, etc? | 04:33 |
| wiesshund | meesebyte, you might need the windows driver and have to use ndiswrapper | 04:33 |
| froek | mib_mib: no | 04:33 |
| meesebyte | How? I have ndiswrapper but I cant find the correct dll. | 04:33 |
| wiesshund | win2k or xp driver should work for that | 04:33 |
| froek | mib_mib: he only needs --x to get into them | 04:34 |
| meesebyte | K | 04:34 |
| meesebyte | So a .2K file will work wiesshund ? | 04:34 |
| wiesshund | meesebyte, does belkin offer any linux driver or source for it? | 04:34 |
| meesebyte | Nope | 04:34 |
| wiesshund | meesebyte, win2k? should work yes | 04:35 |
| meesebyte | K | 04:35 |
| hoop | what is differance between desktop and alternate versions? | 04:35 |
| mib_mib | froek: can you help then? I have created a group called 'mygroup', and added a user 'myuser' to it. I have recursively changed group permissions all the way down that stack (chmod -R 775 /usr/local/myfolder), and chgrp -R mygroup /usr/local/myfolder) but it still isn't working | 04:35 |

| wiesshund | meesebyte, not that i know of, minimal navagation tools works fine for me | 04:38 |
| meesebyte | wiesshund: It's the default filesystem browser | 04:38 |
| meesebyte | If you click on Home in Places it opens Nautilus by default | 04:39 |

| noisewaterphd | Delvien: I read your question wrong | 04:53 |
| noisewaterphd | i thought you were talking about something completely different | 04:53 |
| hoop | the md5sum says they are the same | 04:53 |
| noisewaterphd | I don't know, but I would assume they both represent the same thing, not that it's using twice as much | 04:53 |
| noisewaterphd | hoop: did you verify your discs after burning? and are the matched checksums the iso's you actually burned? | 04:55 |

| imyousuf | ok ^peanut^ | 05:00 |

| ^peanut^ | wildbat: try mplayer | 05:01 |
| ^peanut^ | !mplayer | wildbat | 05:01 |
| ubottu | wildbat: mplayer is a media player. It resides in the mutiverse repository and can easily be installed via applications -> add/remove. For codecs try !codecs | 05:01 |
| noisewaterphd | wildbat: there are cool things like handbrake | 05:01 |

| ^peanut^ | noisewaterphd: yeah... =) | 05:02 |
| dontput | ahh got it.. functions of "!" | 05:02 |
| hoop_ | Seb well its correct | 05:02 |
| sebsebseb | hoop_: burn slowly to CD, if still problems, either your hardware, or the version of Ubuntu, I guess | 05:02 |
| noisewaterphd | wildbat: http://handbrake.fr - i think they even have an ubuntu installer if I remember right, and then of course install vlc as well | 05:03 |
| hoop_ | Seb ive burned 6 copies 4 on cdr and 2 on dvd... and on slowest spends none worked | 05:03 |
| ^peanut^ | hoop_: the "auto" for speed when buring a cd/dvd is not always the best option. I'd burn in at 6 or 8x | 05:03 |

| gr3g | sounds like a bad drive or image. why not try redownloading it, or if you can order an actual cd for free from the site | 05:04 |
| meesebyte | ^peanut^: I did not understand that | 05:04 |

| bobcolner | hi | 05:14 |
| mascool | ^peanut^, so you dont know | 05:14 |
| meesebyte | It says all my drivers are invalid | 05:14 |
| ^peanut^ | mascool: no sorry | 05:14 |
| sebsebseb | hoop_: I don't normally recommend Wubi, but without a CD that works or the drive, or a USB, I guess thats the way to go really | 05:14 |
| mascool | ^peanut^, isn't it totally backwards that you can't click a notification ? | 05:14 |
| ^peanut^ | meesebyte: sorry man. I haven't used ndiswrapper in over 12 years. so I don't think I will be much more help | 05:14 |
| sebsebseb | hoop_: or just put 9.10 back on if you can :) | 05:14 |
| ^peanut^ | mascool: yea kinda. first time I saw it I tried to click on it and was bummed that it didn't do anything | 05:14 |
| woodyjlw | dose DX10 or DX9 have any effect on opengl ? I have a hd2600xt and I have a x800 pro would the older ati be better for linux gaming? | 05:14 |
| aretrfre34 | mascool:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1439519 ? | 05:14 |
| mascool | ^peanut^, yeah.. i don't get it... | 05:14 |
| sebsebseb | meesebyte: you use the inf file from your windows driver and set up in Ndiswrapper | 05:14 |
| applesucks | any suggestions on how to sync an ipod touch in gnome? | 05:14 |
| sebsebseb | meesebyte: and i'll get you a link hold on | 05:14 |
| mascool | aretrfre34, thanks ! not what I asked for tho | 05:14 |
| meesebyte | sebsebseb: I did, but they all are invalid | 05:14 |
| ^peanut^ | aretrfre34: nice man.... | 05:14 |
| meesebyte | When I do ndiswrapper -l it says invalid beside all of them | 05:14 |
| eliot89 | does anyone know why when I start some process like say xosview in a terminal I can no longer do anything in said terminal? does that happen to everyone or is it just my problem? | 05:14 |
| xangua | meesebyte: are you using the windows xp driver inf fileĀæ | 05:15 |
| meesebyte | yes | 05:15 |
| ^peanut^ | eliot89: try running xosview with & at the end so: xosview & | 05:15 |
| mascool | aretrfre34, i dont get it, how does that address my question ? | 05:15 |
| xangua | meesebyte: XP ĀæĀæ are you sureĀæĀæ | 05:15 |
| sebsebseb | meesebyte: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper | 05:15 |
| meesebyte | xangua: U mean the one that belkin installed on my windows right? | 05:15 |
| sebsebseb | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper | 05:15 |
| ^peanut^ | eliot89: that will put the process in the background. to gain access to it again you can type "fg" without " " | 05:15 |
| meesebyte | For my card | 05:15 |
| eliot89 | AAAAAAAHHHHHHH (sigh of relief) much better thank you | 05:15 |
| ^peanut^ | eliot89: your welcome | 05:16 |
| xangua | meesebyte: i mean the windows XP version of the driver | 05:16 |
| j_ayen_green | I had a tar unpack die on me because a file in it had a name with unacceptable characters in it. Now when I try to remove the directory that it's in, or cd to that directory, I get a protocol error. | 05:16 |
| eliot89 | #2 is there any way to grab the registration info of the windows dist that I killed when I installed ubuntu on my comp for the windows partition I have in virtualbox? | 05:16 |
| ^peanut^ | eliot89: you can also run xosview with the & (if you forget), then just hit ctrl+z and then type bg to background the job. | 05:17 |
| mascool | aretrfre34, any other totally unrelated info you want to share with me ? | 05:18 |
| ^peanut^ | eliot89: so you installed ubuntu "over" your windows install and now you need the reg info from windows? | 05:18 |
| ^peanut^ | without* | 05:18 |
| aretrfre34 | mascool:nope, boring | 05:18 |
| eliot89 | @peanut I installed ubuntu erasing windows from this comp | 05:18 |
| ^peanut^ | eliot89: ok...then all your windows stuff is gone. | 05:19 |
| mascool | aretrfre34, thanks! | 05:19 |
| eliot89 | gotcha | 05:19 |
| ^peanut^ | eliot89: =) | 05:19 |
| eliot89 | much appreciated you guys have been awesome' | 05:19 |
| ^peanut^ | eliot89: np, good luck and have fun | 05:19 |
| eliot89 | will do you as well | 05:19 |
| ^peanut^ | thank you | 05:19 |
| j_ayen_green | how do I remove a directory if rm responds with 'protocol error' ? | 05:20 |
| ^peanut^ | j_ayen_green: are you removing something thats on an nfs share or cifs/samba share? | 05:20 |
| gartral | hey all, i'm trying to access a dav, not securedav server, and ubuntu wants a "name".. http://imagebin.org/106431 where do i put a name in that prompt? | 05:21 |
| ActionParsnip | gartral: do you mean "bookmark name"? | 05:22 |
| j_ayen_green | ^peanut^: great question :) how can I tell? | 05:22 |
| gartral | ActionParsnip: look at the photo | 05:23 |
| gartral | ActionParsnip: it's asking for a name, not a bookmark name, which i already tried | 05:23 |
| ^peanut^ | j_ayen_green: type mount then "enter" in the cli | 05:23 |
| meesebyte | ndiswrapper says my "Driver.2K" is invalid driver | 05:23 |
| ActionParsnip | gartral: maybe it expects a hostname rather than an IP, add a resolution in /etc/hosts | 05:23 |
| pinPoint | I'm running 8.0.4 lts right now. I want to upgrade, the best way is how? | 05:23 |
| ActionParsnip | !upgrade | pinPoint | 05:23 |
| pinPoint | dvd/cd iso, sourcelist? | 05:23 |
| ubottu | pinPoint: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 05:23 |
| wiesshund | meesebyte, whats your adapter model? | 05:24 |
| gartral | ActionParsnip: resolution to what, im trying to connect to a dav server on my phone.. over in-house wifi...\ | 05:24 |
| ActionParsnip | pinPoint: DON'T edit sources.lst, its not the advised way, you can easily jump from hardy to lucid as it is lts to lts | 05:24 |
| meesebyte | F7D1101 wiesshund | 05:24 |
| pinPoint | ActionParsnip: how about from 8-9-10? | 05:24 |
| wiesshund | meesebyte, what brand is that? | 05:24 |
| meesebyte | Belkin | 05:24 |
| ^peanut^ | gartral: can you ping your phone? | 05:24 |
| j_ayen_green | ^peanut^: I don't see nfs or cifs mentioned... just ext4 | 05:25 |
| gartral | ^peanut^: yes | 05:25 |
| ActionParsnip | gartral: maybe the app wants a hostname in the location bar, i'd also drop down the service type to ensure it is accurate | 05:25 |
| ^peanut^ | gartral: can you access or telnet to port 8888 on your phone? | 05:25 |
| ^peanut^ | j_ayen_green: hmm | 05:25 |
| wiesshund | meesebyte, 1 sec | 05:25 |
| meesebyte | Cool | 05:25 |
| ^peanut^ | j_ayen_green: and your getting a protocol error? what command are you typing? | 05:25 |
| gartral | ^peanut^: no, theres no telnet server | 05:25 |
| wiesshund | meesebyte, pci USB or? | 05:25 |
| ActionParsnip | pinPoint: you can but intrepid is EOL now. you can jump to lucid in one go and be fine | 05:25 |
| meesebyte | USB wiesshund | 05:25 |
| ^peanut^ | gartral: you don't need a telnet server to telnet to a port on a host. | 05:25 |
| gartral | ActionParsnip: you went way over my head there | 05:25 |
| Hilikus | if i have a dir with all my backups, is there any reason to have them u+w? no eh, since backups should not be changed | 05:25 |
| j_ayen_green | ^peanut^: rm <subdirname> -R | 05:25 |
| ^peanut^ | gartral: type: telnet 10.0.1.47 8888 | 05:26 |
| pinPoint | ActionParsnip: without loosing data on my webserver and scripts, and irssi? | 05:26 |
| j_ayen_green | or cd <subdirname> | 05:26 |
| ActionParsnip | gartral: add an entry in /etc/osts to resolve 10.0.1.47 to a name. this may make the app happier | 05:26 |
| meesebyte | I even have the USBID of it | 05:26 |
| ^peanut^ | j_ayen_green: try rm -r subdir | 05:26 |
| ^peanut^ | j_ayen_green: or rm -rf subdir | 05:26 |
| ActionParsnip | pinPoint: it upgrades the apps, settings will be untouched. you should have backups if the data is important | 05:26 |
| wiesshund | meesebyte, it isnt in the list of working with ndiswrapper http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ndiswrapper/index.php?title=Category:USB | 05:26 |
| meesebyte | Brb toilet | 05:27 |
| gartral | ActionParsnip: just so i can confirm we're on the same page, the webdav server is ON the phone, i'm trying to access it from ubuntu. not the otherway around | 05:27 |
| j_ayen_green | ^peanut^: how about if I slap my forehead first? It's giving me the protocol error because it already deleted the subdir | 05:27 |
| ^peanut^ | j_ayen_green: =) well, thats a good thing then =) | 05:27 |
| ^peanut^ | j_ayen_green: it happens man. no worries. | 05:28 |
| simon__ | I install kde 4, but it start loading the desktop (without panels) and me back to gdm | 05:28 |
| j_ayen_green | ^peanut^: appreciate it :) thanks | 05:28 |
| simon__ | any help, :(? | 05:28 |
| ^peanut^ | gartral: if the phone is running a webdav server, can you open firefox and type in the ip and port of your phone? | 05:28 |
| jenue | how can i share my playlist from my rhythmbox to the network? | 05:28 |
| gartral | ^peanut^: yes, telnet connected, and i lied, appreaently the webdav server has a telnet backend up | 05:28 |
| ^peanut^ | gartral: like http://10.0.1.47:8888 | 05:29 |
| ^peanut^ | gartral: =) cool | 05:29 |
| meesebyte | wiesshund: Are there any alternatives? :( | 05:29 |
| gartral | ^peanut^: yes, and it's asking me to authenticate | 05:29 |
| ^peanut^ | gartral: ok cool are you able to logon? | 05:29 |
| wiesshund | meesebyte, with ubuntu, possibly not. let me look at something | 05:29 |
| gartral | ^peanut^: yes. | 05:29 |
| meesebyte | I don't have cable/dialup/dsl Internet so I have to tether thru my iPhone | 05:30 |
| ^peanut^ | gartral: if so, in the bookmark window try putting: http://username:password@10.0.1.47:8888 and see if that works | 05:30 |
| ^peanut^ | gartral: put that in the "location (URI): | 05:30 |
| ^peanut^ | gartral: if that doesn't work, hmm, then I'm not sure. maybe that's a bug | 05:31 |
| simon__ | thanks anyway :( | 05:31 |
| gartral | ^peanut^: well, it's giving me exactly the same error | 05:31 |
| ndie | hi | 05:31 |
| applesucks | why is bittorent so much faster in linux? | 05:32 |
| ^peanut^ | gartral: strange... the dev's might have missed a username/password field | 05:32 |
| jmyeom | hello | 05:32 |
| ^peanut^ | applesucks: cause linux rocks? | 05:32 |
| jmyeom | need some help when somone has time :) | 05:33 |
| ^peanut^ | !ask | jmyeom | 05:33 |
| ubottu | jmyeom: 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. :-) | 05:33 |
| applesucks | I think it's something to do with microsoft limiting half open tcp/ip connections to 10 by default | 05:33 |
| jmyeom | kk , well i got a netbook, 1.5gb of ram 16gb sdd, and ive been running windows from it, and have used windows most my life, but its not cutting it | 05:34 |
| ^peanut^ | applesucks: yeah that could be it to. | 05:34 |
| applesucks | what I heard | 05:34 |
| ^peanut^ | jmyeom: so whats your question? | 05:34 |
| jmyeom | so, im totaly new to linux, im dl ubuntu now, but im a php coder, i need some sort of text editor and localhost (lampp?) | 05:34 |
| sebsebseb | !lamp | jmyeom | 05:35 |
| ubottu | jmyeom: 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+) | 05:35 |
| ^peanut^ | jmyeom: ubuntu is perfect for that =) | 05:35 |
| jmyeom | is someone willing to show me the ropes, help me out? im going to need help sorting everything else | 05:35 |
| noisewaterphd | jmyeom: there are tons of editors, and the lamp stack is pretty much default on nix | 05:35 |
| Hilikus | jmyeom: its pretty easy, apt-get everything | 05:35 |
| ^peanut^ | jmyeom: read read read. | 05:35 |
| sebsebseb | jmyeom: basic text editing and such gedit will do it, something more for programing try Emacs, has quite a learning curve though, or well you'll see if you try it | 05:35 |
| ^peanut^ | jmyeom: spend time on this channel, you'll learn a ton just reading other ppls questions | 05:35 |
| sebsebseb | !emacs | jmyeom | 05:35 |
| ubottu | jmyeom: Text Editors: gedit (GNOME), Kate (KDE), mousepad (Xfce4) - Terminal-based: nano, vi/vim, emacs, ed - For HTML/CSS editors, see !html - For programming editors and IDE, see !code | 05:35 |
| noisewaterphd | and welcome, you'll be amazed at what you've been missing | 05:36 |
| noisewaterphd | especially as a code slinger | 05:36 |
| ^peanut^ | jmyeom: for php editing, vim gkvim with php/perl plugins is great | 05:36 |
| jmyeom | kk, that was a lot of info in one minute, i think i got it :P | 05:36 |
| ^peanut^ | jmyeom: =) good luck man, and welcome to ubuntu/linux | 05:37 |
| jmyeom | kk thanks, links saved, i used wampp, and tbh ive never looked away from windows, but the stuff i have heard, i should of changed a long time ago :P, this is why im changing :P | 05:37 |
| noisewaterphd | jmyeom: I've got e-text editor to compile on ubuntu and it works really well | 05:37 |
| noisewaterphd | it's kind of a textmate clone for windows, but they are working on a linux version, so you can download and toy with it for free right now | 05:37 |
| jmyeom | thanks, but im looking for a basic editor, not a ide, i liked my shitty trail and errors from notepad, it makes me know im not going mad with infomation :p | 05:38 |
| ^peanut^ | jmyeom: you'll love vim then =) | 05:38 |
| noisewaterphd | or if you are into the full IDE kind of thing there are a few eclipse based PHP IDE's | 05:38 |
| JoshStrobl | Yea, vim is awesome. | 05:38 |
| ^peanut^ | jmyeom: very clean and the learning curve is not that bad at all | 05:38 |
| noisewaterphd | and netbeans is a surprisingly good php ide | 05:38 |
| jmyeom | yes | 05:38 |
| noisewaterphd | vim++, can't live without vim | 05:39 |
| jmyeom | netbeans, i liked it, but, dident at the same time :O | 05:39 |
| Hilikus | i like emacs better | 05:39 |
| mewie | Okay, so I'm finally on the internet in Ubuntu. But it's not letting me install Flash. It keeps telling me: | 05:39 |
| mewie | CD/DVD 'Ubuntu 10.04 LTS _Lucid Lynx_ - Release amd64 (20100429)' is required | 05:39 |
| mewie | Please insert the above CD/DVD into the drive '/cdrom/' to install software packages from the medium. | 05:39 |
| mewie | But the CD is in the drive! | 05:39 |
| ^peanut^ | Hilikus: are you an old school coder? | 05:39 |
| FloodBot4 | mewie: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:39 |
| pinPoint | is there sata support in 8.04 lts? My new 500GB cannot be seen in sudo fdisk -l | 05:40 |
| noisewaterphd | Hilikus: I've honestly just never given emacs a shot, but I do know a lot of people swear by it | 05:40 |
| Hilikus | idk, i don't think so, i usually prefer fancy IDE's. but for text editing i prefer emacs over vim | 05:40 |
| MasterOfDisaster | mewie: you have to mount the CD first | 05:40 |
| tucemiux | anyone knows where I can find a list of hardware supported devices? Im trying tofigure out what firewire cardbus I should buy | 05:40 |
| MaRk-I | mewie: if you already have internet disable the cd from package manager so you can install from the repos | 05:40 |
| DasEi | mewie: bring your sources to a correct state and install from the net | 05:40 |
| ^peanut^ | noisewaterphd: yeah me to. most of the engineers I support are emacs ppl | 05:40 |
| Hilikus | how can you program ANYTHING without autocompletion | 05:40 |
| jmyeom | yes, thats reminds me, miens a dual core, so im dl the 64 bit, all most stuff work, or shall i got 32? | 05:40 |
| jmyeom | Hilikus, so i know im not mad when i do it first time :P | 05:40 |
| ^peanut^ | Hilikus: =) very true | 05:41 |
| tucemiux | 64 bit for me | 05:41 |
| ^peanut^ | jmyeom: do you have 4gb of ram | 05:41 |
| DasEi | mewie: http://repogen.simplylinux.ch/ | 05:41 |
| Hilikus | jmyeom: at some point i had problems with flash in 64bits, but that was like a year ago | 05:41 |
| jmyeom | haha, flash | 05:41 |
| aristo | hello there, i have this problem, i've installed ubuntu lucid, i had my previous /home partition so i used without formating, now i have changed my cursos theme and only the arrow pointer hasnt changed | 05:41 |
| jmyeom | almost as bad as java | 05:41 |
| * jmyeom looks for java coders -.- | 05:42 | |
| noisewaterphd | Hilikus: I usually just use an editor and the cli, when I do use an IDE all of the auto complete pop ups ans such just drive me nuts | 05:42 |
| noisewaterphd | I write java | 05:42 |
| ^peanut^ | jmyeom: 64bit is sweet if you don't need all of the enduser flash stuff | 05:42 |
| gartral | ^peanut^: ok, i forgot to mention this: the normal webdav selection in the connect to server applet thing wont recognise my phone as webdav enable share | 05:42 |
| DasEi | jmyeom: no java coder here, but flash does fine for me | 05:42 |
| noisewaterphd | amongst many others | 05:42 |
| aristo | i have deleted .gconf folders and all .gnome folders but problems is still there | 05:42 |
| aristo | any ideas? | 05:42 |
| noisewaterphd | I do plenty of flex work as well | 05:42 |
| ^peanut^ | brb | 05:42 |
| DasEi | mewie: need more advice ? | 05:43 |
| jmyeom | right | 05:43 |
| jmyeom | please done hit me for this | 05:43 |
| jmyeom | but has ubunt got like a regedit or something? | 05:43 |
| sebsebseb | jmyeom: no | 05:44 |
| sebsebseb | jmyeom: no Linux distros do, however | 05:44 |
| aristo | slap jmyeom | 05:44 |
| noisewaterphd | there isnt a registry | 05:44 |
| Hilikus | jmyeom: /etc is the closest i guess | 05:44 |
| sebsebseb | jmyeom: for Gnome there is something a little bit like a registery for configuring it called gconf editor | 05:44 |
| noisewaterphd | most of that kind of stuff is in /etc | 05:44 |
| jmyeom | good, i had regedit, its just begging to break | 05:44 |
| holy | isconnect | 05:44 |
| Evolution-X | is there something i can run on terminal to make mi camara work | 05:44 |
| sebsebseb | jmyeom: thats the look that Ubuntu and a load of other distros use by default, look as in desktop envrionment, but normally there isn't even a reason to go in there | 05:44 |
| DasEi | Evolution-X: install cheese | 05:45 |
| Evolution-X | i have skype | 05:45 |
| jmyeom | o yes, i has webcam, will it work on ubunt? | 05:45 |
| Evolution-X | is now working with that | 05:45 |
| noisewaterphd | jmyeom: mine does | 05:45 |
| sebsebseb | jmyeom: depends on the web cam if it just works or not, and if not theres a program called cheese that can probably help to configure it | 05:45 |
| noisewaterphd | just worked automatically | 05:45 |
| noisewaterphd | just depends on the cam | 05:45 |
| Evolution-X | i yru ur suggestion but will that fix that | 05:45 |
| jmyeom | kk thanks, im not to bothered, i just like to have everythign working and not break ;) | 05:46 |
| Jp82191 | i need help i keep trying to log into ubuntu 10.04 and it tries to log in but ends back up in the login screen | 05:46 |
| jmyeom | like windows breaks, it never breaks "a little", it goes with a bang -.- | 05:46 |
| DasEi | sebsebseb: cheese is a viewer app, just to check out of the box | 05:46 |
| noisewaterphd | jmyeom: what are you doing working as a developer then :) | 05:46 |
| noisewaterphd | haha, ya | 05:47 |
| fraggle780 | does anyone have suggestions for guides for the entire Ubuntu/Linux thing for noobs? | 05:47 |
| DasEi | Jp82191: ctrl-altF1, then sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm | 05:47 |
| noisewaterphd | I'm actually a convert to linux full time from OS X, which I started using at the public beta | 05:47 |

| peepingtom | jmyeom: gnome has gnome-settings daemon and gconf-editor | 05:50 |
| rallias | I have a question about wifi. I have 3 major areas that have wireless access. 2 of them have a conflicting SSID, one that i use one that I don't (they don't overlap). Is there any way to set precidence of the one I use in the area I don't use the conflicting SSID in for the wireless autoconnect? | 05:50 |
| fraggle780 | what are some good editors / compilers, I am still learning much about this entire process | 05:50 |
| jmyeom | peepingtom, cool info, but only only on the 90% stage of downloading it, so i dunno what you chatting about :P | 05:50 |

| fraggle780 | DasEI: gnome is standard on Ubuntu, correct? | 05:53 |
| Jp82191 | still the same | 05:53 |
| noisewaterphd | fraggle780: and as DasEi said, gedit is common, and it's pretty powerful, plugins and such | 05:53 |

| doktoreas | nope..it happened since one day | 07:36 |

| waseem | hi, I using Dell Inspiron 14R, have installed a dell tailored ubuntu 10.04 from the a dell website. I have some issues with which are: 1. The brightness keys doesnt work. 2. I am not able to select extended graphics from the Appearance Prefences, as only the first option is enabled. | 07:36 |
| magnetron | doktoreas_: yes, i was wondering if you installed Tor | 07:36 |
| MaRk-I | JViz: and here's another option http://blog.mattrudge.net/2010/05/07/installing-flash-player-from-repository-on-ubuntu-10-04-64-bit/ | 07:37 |
| scriptwarlock | fireduck: have you shared correctly the folder? | 07:37 |
| doktoreas | magnetron, nope no Tor installed | 07:37 |
| waseem | can anyone help with the brightness key first | 07:37 |
| waseem | ?? | 07:37 |
| jgcampbell300 | can anyone tell me how to log into my ubuntu 10.04 server from my other computer running ubuntu 10.04 desktop ... i need to be able to open a terminal on the desktop to control the server ... thanks | 07:37 |
| DasEi1 | Jp82191: looks more like a corrupt installer medium then, though the repos in the end worked, strange, complete reinstall of gdm didn't bring the default-files back | 07:37 |
| DasEi1 | jgcampbell300: use ssh | 07:37 |
| Jp82191 | i know i thought that would fix it | 07:37 |
| fireduck | scriptwarlock: no it says the same error | 07:37 |
| Jp82191 | ill just wait till it finishes backing up then ill keep a backup | 07:37 |
| DasEi1 | jgcampbell300: on both machines : sudo apt-get install ssh | 07:38 |
| Jp82191 | safe on the ext hdd and reinstall Lucid | 07:38 |
| scriptwarlock | fireduck: heres a little sample video on how to share the files | 07:38 |
| jgcampbell300 | DasEil, thank you ... i remember doing that before now ... | 07:38 |
| DasEi1 | jgcampbell300: then edit ssh-config on server, get its ip, can ssh in | 07:38 |
| scriptwarlock | fireduck: see if it helps http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVSK_Mun9UM | 07:39 |

| visof | hello , i have ext4 partition that has 20 Gb but it's now full , and i have another empty partition, can i add that to ext4 partition ? | 07:40 |
| W43372 | Howdy Folks. I've got an issue. I introduced my friend to Karmic yesterday and installed it on her computer. And then I installed XP Home on another partition on the hard drive so she could dual boot so she could have the option of using windows if there was something she wasn't comfortable with on Linux. After I installed windows and restarted the machine it automatically boots into windows. Normally when a computer with more | 07:41 |
| W43372 | than one OS is turned on, as far as I've ever seen, a prompt appears asking which partition you want to boot from. Her computer doesn't even give me the option. What should I do? | 07:41 |
| visof | without formation o rwithout lossing any data ? | 07:41 |

| Jp82191 | W43372: I would think you need to install windows first the ubuntu | 07:41 |
| Jp82191 | but im not sure | 07:42 |
| Flannel | !fixgrub | W43372 | 07:42 |
| ubottu | W43372: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 07:42 |
| fireduck | scriptwarlock: Yes it works!! Thanks a lot | 07:42 |
| scriptwarlock | Dual boot! | W43372 | 07:42 |
| scriptwarlock | !Dual boot | W43372 | 07:43 |

| W43372 | That's what I was trying to do, but any and all computers I've ever had more than one OS on I got the prompt automatically. this is the first time I've encountered this problem | 07:43 |
| Jp82191 | W43372: check those links out | 07:43 |
| Jp82191 | they provide info on how to do it | 07:43 |
| W43372 | I am. | 07:44 |
| Flannel | W43372: If you install Windows second, it overwrites things (because Windows doesn't know about other OSes). If you intend to do this again in the future, install windows first, then Linux | 07:44 |
| Jp82191 | Flannel: thats the same thing i told him | 07:45 |
| Jp82191 | I said to install windows first then ubuntu | 07:45 |
| W43372 | Is there any way I can get back into linux so that I can get some of her data off of it before I start all of this again? | 07:45 |
| jgcampbell300 | i forgot how to connect to the ssh on the server lol | 07:45 |
| W43372 | Or should I just stick my usb stick into a windows computer and check the .Trash folder to see if her files are still there? | 07:45 |
| Flannel | W43372: you don't need to do it all again, just reinstall GRUB (follow the https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub page), you don't need to reinstall Ubuntu | 07:45 |
| Jp82191 | but he can't boot into ubuntu | 07:46 |
| W43372 | Flannel: Oh, ok. Cool. Would it be easier if I just had both OS's on seperate hard drives? | 07:46 |
| scriptwarlock | jgcampbell300: until now? | 07:46 |
| lemonade_ | New here | 07:46 |
| Flannel | W43372: It doesn't make any difference in this case | 07:46 |
| W43372 | But, for future reference? | 07:47 |
| Flannel | lemonade_: Welcome | 07:47 |
| lemonade_ | Thanks | 07:47 |
| Jp82191 | Welcome Lemonade | 07:47 |
| Flannel | W43372: As far as getting-computers-to-boot, it doesn't make a difference for 99% of the cases | 07:47 |
| jgcampbell300 | umm nope ... still reading on it ... cant bleave how much i have forgoten | 07:47 |
| pallgone | W43372: no, but the next time do it the other way around, first install windows, then linux, so you won't have to fix it afterwards | 07:48 |
| scriptwarlock | jgcampbell300: its usually ssh -p <port> you@ip | 07:48 |
| W43372 | Flannel: ok, nifty. I'll read up on these pages and find my way back over to this screen if I have any questions. | 07:48 |
| Flannel | W43372: Good luck | 07:48 |

| peepingtom | AdvoWork: it refers to your CD drive, don't worry about it it normally happens after ejecting post-install | 07:50 |

| magnetron | pinPoint_: i guess your earlier choices will affect you now. with more planning the transfer would be alot easier. just copying all files over will be unlikely to work, for lots of reasons | 08:30 |
| Edin | W43372, maybe you limited IPs to local net? | 08:31 |

| W43372 | peepingtom thanks, it's been a long day | 08:32 |
| noob_bully | what are you using? Netgear? | 08:32 |
| Edin | W43372, try sudo apt-get install samba [twice TABHERE] | 08:32 |
| peepingtom | Sbioko: any electricity not consumed becomes heat, turions are inefficient | 08:32 |
| glick | how come remote desktop istn working correctly? | 08:32 |
| W43372 | it told me that I already had the newest version of samba and when I do a findsmb I only get my laptop as the output | 08:32 |
| Edin | or smb | 08:32 |
| magnetron | pinPoint: it's a system for partition management, you can grow, shrink, move and combine filesystems between hard drives even without rebooting | 08:32 |
| Sbioko | shi* | 08:32 |
| glick | like for example, i dont see the remote icons | 08:32 |
| Sbioko | sorry | 08:32 |
| glick | if i move remote windows, the screen isnt updated | 08:33 |
| Sbioko | peepingtom: but i dont remember, that I had such problems one year ago | 08:33 |

| noob_bully | Can any1 tell me how to disable the splash screen in ubuntu 9.10.... Splash scree here does not mean the boot time splash..after logging to user account | 08:34 |
| phlak_user | noob_bully: disable plymouth | 08:34 |
| magnetron | pinPoint: with LVM, it's possible to just add an extra HDD when you run out of disk space and let the old / grow over both HDDs | 08:34 |
| jmyeom | need help installing a 3 internet dongle on ubunt 10.4 | 08:34 |

| euph0ria | isn't the ~/.ssg directory created automatically when a new user is added in ubuntu? | 08:34 |
| sogo | bugging the splash screen for me as well :( | 08:34 |
| euph0ria | ie ~./ssh i meant.. | 08:35 |
| pinPoint | magnetron: can I have it all grow onto 500gb one? | 08:35 |
| noob_bully | @phalk_user : can you plase xplain? | 08:35 |
| Sbioko | peepingtom: maybe the things are in laptop's age too? | 08:35 |
| magnetron | pinPoint: if you made your first install with LVM, yes | 08:35 |
| Niglop | what is the difference between distro's? other then what package management window manager and file system they use | 08:35 |
| rww | euph0ria: no | 08:36 |
| jmyeom | need help installing a 3 internet dongle on ubunt 10.4 | 08:36 |
| pinPoint | magnetron: this is too painful, theres gotta be a way for me to just move everything including the boot partition stuff | 08:36 |
| magnetron | pinPoint: i suggest you make a fresh install on the new HDD, with LVM partitions. then move the apache config, scripts folder and /var/www_data over by hand | 08:36 |
| euph0ria | rww: when is it created? I logged on with the user through ssh and it's not created even then.. | 08:36 |
| phlak_user | noob_bully: this is the only known way; please do not remove the package. .. -> rename all the files plymouth* in /etc/init/ or move them out of that folde | 08:36 |
| noob_bully | okay ..let me try thanks :) | 08:36 |
| glick | anyone know why remote desktop ubuntu to ubuntu doesnt update the screen? | 08:37 |

| jmyeom | need help installing a 3 internet dongle on ubunt 10.4 | 08:37 |
| rww | euph0ria: when you run the ssh client as that user and it creates ~/.ssh/known_hosts. or you can just make the directory yourself. | 08:37 |
| pinPoint | magnetron: i installed using a burned dvd iso file of 8.x lts | 08:37 |
| magnetron | pinPoint: yes, and you didn't use LVM. | 08:38 |
| zxs | could someone lend a hand to getting 3 monitors setup on 10.04 - ati 4xxx x2 cards | 08:38 |
| pinPoint | omg! | 08:38 |
| pinPoint | i was a rookie at this... dang it. | 08:38 |
| noob_bully | @phalk_user : there's no plymo* :( | 08:38 |
| euph0ria | rww: I login with that user but nothin happens.. | 08:39 |
| jmyeom | need help installing a 3 internet dongle on ubunt 10.4 | 08:39 |
| phlak_user | zxs: http://www.sakis3g.org/\ | 08:39 |
| magnetron | pinPoint: setting up LVM is slightly more complicated but it's totally worth it in the long run | 08:39 |
| pinPoint | magnetron: i just want to copy from drive a to drive b. :( | 08:39 |
| phlak_user | noob_bully: yes there is... check inside /etc/init.d/ | 08:39 |
| pinPoint | or ghost it but drives that are of different sizes | 08:40 |
| rww | phlak_user: noob_bully said they're on 9.10. 9.10 doesn't use plymouth. Plymouth isn't responsible for splash screens after login anyway. | 08:40 |
| magnetron | pinPoint: you can! but it won't be bootable | 08:40 |
| Sbioko | peepingtom: htanks | 08:40 |
| pinPoint | magnetron: why? | 08:40 |
| magnetron | pinPoint: also, it's unlikely it will mount your non-root partitions correctly | 08:40 |
| phlak_user | rww: you're right i was thinking Lucid... | 08:41 |
| magnetron | pinPoint: because the boot loader isn't simply a file | 08:41 |
| Pirate_Hunter | how do i go about fixing the encoding/locale in my terminal some characters don't show properly all I see is squares specially when using ssh? | 08:41 |
| zxs | phlak_user: 3g for monitors? | 08:41 |
| rww | phlak_user: and if they were using lucid and wanted to disable plymouth, the correct ways of doing it are 1) removing "splash" from /etc/default/grub, or 2) removing the plymouth-theme-* packages. | 08:41 |
| phlak_user | zxs: oops wrong nick; | 08:41 |
| magnetron | Pirate_Hunter: are you connecting to an ubuntu box using ssh/putty from windows? | 08:41 |

| lemonade_ | phlak_user, what about installing software to bb? | 08:46 |
| glick | in my public folder, can i put links to folders i want to shar? | 08:46 |
| magnetron | Pirate_Hunter: if both ubuntu computers are installed as UTF-8 systems, the only thing you can do is use a good font which supports most characters | 08:46 |
| phlak_user | lemonade_: I use blackberry app or download the app directly to the device itself. | 08:46 |

| Perfexion | *typo | 08:47 |
| lemonade_ | phlak_user, thanks | 08:48 |
| Niglop | which package manager is most frequently updated? | 08:48 |
| jmyeom | now do i open console? | 08:48 |
| AdvoWork | phlak_user, nope, but.. i may have a solution. a guide shows to do: wget http://jooz.net/rndis/rndis_wlan-snapshot-20080509.tar.gz that link is gone, but i think ive got rndis_wlan drivers somewhere as default. any suggestions please? | 08:48 |
| phlak_user | Perfexion: you might need to re-export the PATH variable with the correct spelling; first echo $PATH and copy down the correct path | 08:48 |
| W43372 | I was able to solve my problem with this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=531649. Apparently my IP address changed on my windows box and that change wasn't reflected in /etc/hosts | 08:48 |
| ping__luce | hi, is there a way to access a gnome panel through ssh (with -X option) ? | 08:48 |
| rww | Niglop: if you're asking about Linux distributions in general, rather than Ubuntu specifically, try ##linux or #ubuntu-offtopic. #ubuntu is just for Ubuntu support. | 08:49 |
| peepingtom | gnome-panel, or do you mean one running in another X-session? | 08:49 |
| jmyeom | now do i open console? | 08:49 |
| phlak_user | AdvoWork: sorry havent worked on rndis drivers | 08:49 |
| Perfexion | phlak_user: I already re exported fixing the typo, now in my path I have the correct directory and the directory with a typo, I can see them both with echo $path | 08:50 |
| phlak_user | Perfexion: when re-exporting you shouldnt add the old $PATH only export PATH=/all/correct/paths:/new/path/corrected | 08:50 |
| jmyeom | now do i open console? | 08:51 |
| peepingtom | applications -> accessories -> terminal | 08:51 |
| phlak_user | jmyeom: why are you repeating the same sentence? | 08:51 |
| Perfexion | I basically typed tool instead of tools, now I want to remove /home/justin/android/android-sdk-linux_86/tools | 08:51 |
| Pirate_Hunter | magnetron, i would assume both systems support utf8 and have good font, however, how do i go about checking,? | 08:51 |
| glick | after i share my public folder on one computer, how can i access it from other computers? | 08:51 |

| phlak_user | glick: right-click on the folder and configure "Sharing Options" | 08:53 |
| Perfexion | Phlak_user: I don't understand what you are saying. I basically typed "export PATH=${PATH}:~/android/android-sdk-linux_86/tool" realized I messed up, so I typed "export PATH=${PATH}:~/android/android-sdk-linux_86/tools" and now I want to remove the bad one. | 08:54 |

| phlak_user | Perfexion: 1) type echo $PATH. This will print out the current path. Select everything upto the point where you add the android directory and copy to clipboard (ctl+shift+c in terminal); 2) Now type export PATH=ctl+shift+v (paste):your/new/path | 08:56 |

| claudia | rww: so what would you advice to me... i am going to install ubuntu on a new laptop, shall i install 10.04 right now or maybe its better to wait for 10.04.1 | 09:01 |
| phlak_user | claudia: that version would be 10.10 | 09:01 |
| fale | hi | 09:02 |
| radzio | ? | 09:02 |
| rww | phlak_user: 10.04.1 is an update rollup for 10.04 that's coming out in August. | 09:02 |
| phlak_user | lorenzosu: can you not reconfigure exchange settings? | 09:02 |
| claudia | phlak_user: yes, the version in october, but i mean the rollup for 10.04 in august | 09:02 |
| rww | claudia: may as well just install now. If you do normal system updates (which update manager will prompt you about), you'll end up with the same thing. | 09:02 |
| phlak_user | claudia: you could also update then | 09:02 |
| fale | is there a way to install grub etc inhibiting them to make questions? (like grub wants to know where to put himself etc) | 09:03 |
| claudia | rww: thanks | 09:03 |
| phlak_user | claudia: unless you're willing to wait with no ubuntu till aug :) | 09:03 |
| claudia | phlak_user: also thx to you | 09:03 |
| glick | phlak_user, after i right click on the folder and share it, do i also have to go to System->preferences->file sharing and enable that? | 09:03 |
| lorenzosu | phlak_user, already done it several times, and also I'm importing a backup which works on a vanilla installation | 09:03 |
| phlak_user | glick: nope | 09:03 |
| Pirate_Hunter | magnetron, reading text files or using iftop characters such as lines, bars words will not show properly, what I get is white boxes | 09:04 |

| claudia | phlak_user: well, on the laptop is already ubunutu 9.04 installed, but i would like to update the system | 09:04 |
| glick | says Failed to retrieve share list from server when i try to go to Places->netwoek | 09:04 |

| skar | hi, how do i make gnome-terminal to display the current command as the tab title? | 10:28 |
| glick | it looks like soft links dont work | 10:29 |
| glick | in sharing files | 10:29 |
| glick | but what about hard links? | 10:29 |
| Whizzx | help version | 10:29 |
| Whizzx | j | 10:30 |
| phlak_user | glick: links should never work on file shares | 10:30 |
| glick | phlak_user, so if i want to shar my music, i gotta make duplicate copies? | 10:30 |
| io | skar: Certain commands set their own titles and that replaces the initial title. | 10:30 |
| TenPhil | is there another way to change the background except from the Appearance Menu? | 10:30 |
| phlak_user | glick: or share the music folder (if it is legal) | 10:30 |
| io | skar: Edit -> Profile Preferences. | 10:30 |
| oCean_ | TenPhil: right-click the background? | 10:30 |
| glick | phlak_user, i can only share one folder at a time? | 10:31 |
| phlak_user | TenPhil: right-click on any image and say "Set as Desktop Background" | 10:31 |
| TenPhil | oCean_ Nope | 10:31 |
| phlak_user | glick: not at all | 10:31 |
| oCean_ | TenPhil: yes, in gnome | 10:31 |
| oCean_ | TenPhil: default gnome/metacity that is | 10:31 |
| skar | io: thanks. but somehow long running programs like top, mplayer etc which used to set the title previously under konsole in karmic don't work under gnome-terminal in lucid | 10:31 |
| Tschacko | I play with my clicker now | 10:31 |

| Tschacko | ty | 10:32 |
| io | skar: I understand, there doesn't seem to be a way to do that natively. It allows certain commands to change the title, but only if they choose - or so it seems. | 10:33 |
| === limsi_david is now known as david_limsi | ||
| skar | io: yup. but top, mplayer etc are setting the title's in karmic konsole, while here it doesn't. ah well, thanks anyway. i'll make do with what i have :) | 10:34 |
| io | skar: I would stay in here though and randomly ask your question and possibly someone will have an answer - it's rather quiet at the moment. | 10:35 |
| TenPhil | phlak_user & oCean_ : ok, so according to the settings in the gconf editor the picture should have changed, but I only get the default image. | 10:35 |
| skar | io: ok, will try that then during the night :) | 10:35 |
| phlak_user | io: i just tested with gnome-terminal and mplayer. the title does get set | 10:35 |

| skar | phlak_user: ok :) still, does it work when playing a mp3 or avi? | 10:38 |
| phlak_user | skar: my terminal shows the current working directory in Title not the title of the song/video when mplayer is playing | 10:39 |

| joakimk | phlak_user: the bluetooth thing under preferences menu has almost no settings... | 10:55 |
| joakimk | phlak_user: that's the thing; there is no bt icon... | 10:55 |

| skuld_kid2 | okay, i need some help. I fixed my problem with the volume group. What i want to do, is add a third hard drive to the vg. Can somebody walk me though how to do this? I tried following some examples online, but that got me into the first mess with me corrupting the vg. | 12:35 |

| herazio | I'll just be blunt. It's not really a question that needs to be solved at the moment. I just solved it by reinstalling my whole Ubuntu after Docky for some kind of reason messed up. But that led me to wonder. Suppose a program does not want to start (it's a GUI app) and it does not show any errors at all. What is the best course of action to take ? | 12:35 |
| Gnea | Barami: does the same thing happen with any other apps? | 12:36 |
| mawst | herazio, run from a terminal for error viewing | 12:36 |
| Barami | Yes. | 12:36 |
| herazio | mawst: Oh I see I didn't know that was possible | 12:36 |
| herazio | thank you that was actually more simple than I thought :') | 12:36 |

| mawst | Very welcome. | 12:37 |
| mawst | MagicLover, but Mac will run Linux and Windows too | 12:37 |

| ActionParsnip | Lalon: i see, then make sure the onboard is off so as to not confuse stuff, if the AGP card is the ONLY video adapter then it is an Intel based card | 13:58 |

| BluesKaj | ActionParsnip, xbmc is ok, but I'm trying to run it hradless from the laptop, altho the graphics card is connected by hdmi to our plasma tv. I don't have a proper remote control for the server so the laptop here is the substitute. Seems fine so far.:) | 14:24 |
| BluesKaj | err headless | 14:24 |
| mallchin | bazhang: I know, but the source I'm compiling needs an old version | 14:24 |
| CH| | ActionParsnip I am using Elyssa | 14:24 |
| bazhang | mallchin, as its end of life its not supported. consider upgrading to a supported version | 14:24 |
| === roopeshm is now known as stanley_robertso | ||
| yonahw | BluesKaj: waht graphics card are you using? Do you get sound over the HDMI as well? I am considering building an HTPC myself and was looking for an affordable solution to the video and sound. | 14:25 |
| mallchin | bazhang: I've tried 9.10 and 8.04.4 but the source I'm compiling does work on them | 14:26 |
| yonahw | s/waht/what | 14:26 |
| BluesKaj | yonahw, I'm using a nvidia grforce 7600gt with dvi to hmi cable for video and the spdif digital out to my HT amplifier for audio. | 14:27 |
| === pjarnahomzz is now known as pjarnahom | ||
| yonahw | BluesKaj: What is the spdif digital out? Is the 7600gt capable of sending the sound over HDMI? | 14:28 |
| derek_ | hello i'm new here | 14:29 |
| BluesKaj | yonahw, one can buy relatively inexpensive graphics cards that will route the audio thru their hdmi outputs | 14:29 |
| ActionParsnip | CH|: elyssa is a mint app, i dont use mint and mint isnt supported in #ubuntu | 14:29 |
| yonahw | BluesKaj: do you know of any specific ones you could recommend? | 14:30 |
| BluesKaj | no yonahw , the 7600gt is an older card , so no didgital / hdmi out , the audio on my setup has to be handled separately from the video feed | 14:30 |
| erkan^ | have someone a software "QTM"? | 14:31 |
| subhadip | c.foonetic.net | 14:31 |
| BluesKaj | yonahw, well look at some of the nvidia cards , most will provide hdmi nowadays...the spec list should show the output types | 14:31 |
| yonahw | BluesKaj: thanks, I have spent some time looking into this not too long ago and in general reading comments about particular cards tend to find varying success | 14:32 |

| steve6 | does ubuntu still sux nuts | 14:33 |
| BluesKaj | yonahw, spdif is a digital output meant to feed a digital to audio converter (DAC) which then converts to analog for the speaker poer outs | 14:33 |
| bazhang | steve6, actual support question? | 14:33 |
| ActionParsnip | steve6: in some ways yes, in others, no | 14:33 |

| tschaka | so, is there any alternative to "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" at present? Booting a live cd with an old tft on an nvidia 4 ti4200 fails to out of range, and i would really like to fix this w/o writing an xorg.conf by hand. | 15:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | BluesKaj, even using "purge" will NOT touch anything in a users home directory. Check for a .vlc type file/directory in you home dir. | 15:07 |

| frex | erUSUL: ok i will try it | 15:10 |
| tschaka | ZykoticK9 this is too much fiddling around for the average user when he wants to simply boot a live stick... | 15:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | tschaka, the hope is someone in that situation would NOT have to create an xorg.conf for MOST hardware. | 15:10 |
| tschaka | ZykoticK9 what is the reason then to remove it instead of keeping it for the those users WITH old (but then common) hardware?! | 15:11 |
| ZykoticK9 | tschaka, it's considered progress by most ;) | 15:11 |

| Malignus | urzk: I've always installed through Terminal. You can run dpkg -s hardinfo to check. | 15:17 |
| urzk | Malignus: it does not show my motherboard | 15:17 |

| Slifer | how can i install KVirc for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx plz ? | 15:18 |
| jdu | I have an integrated nic and a pci ethernet card installed. Yet when I run ifconfig, only the integrated nic appears (as eth0). lspci shows both, and pci is enabled. Advice? | 15:18 |
| dajhorn | limeblack: Even in the Live environment, you need to run gparted as a privileged user. Try starting it with `sudo gparted` at a terminal prompt. | 15:18 |
| erUSUL | frex: Ā« sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) Ā» should be somewhere in /usr/src/ | 15:18 |
| urzk | Malignus: sorry, i got it. it shows everything | 15:18 |
| limeblack | Does unbuntu encrypt your home directory by default? Because I am unable to delete it | 15:18 |
| Malignus | urzk: You bet. :) | 15:18 |
| jdu | limeblack: not by default | 15:19 |
| violinappren | jdu: ifconfig eth1 up ? | 15:19 |
| jdu | violinappren: says no such device | 15:19 |
| limeblack | So how do I disable the encrypting or atleast delete the ubuntu partition without reformatting the drive | 15:19 |
| BluesKaj | ZykoticK9, yeah I'm investigating the optional ctrls etc that ssh can do for me ..using the cli to ssh into the server , since I'm lazy and don't feel like getting out of my easychair to run the server . It does have a mouse KB connected as well as the tv but a 46" screen is abit much from 3 ft away :) | 15:19 |
| tschaka | MaRk-I thanks for your suggestions. i did that already. it simply seems to set the resolution to high. i could circumvent this with a modified xorg.conf but the general problem is, that ubuntu seems to more and more force you to a certain way, on the cost of applicability to rather seldom systems and circumstances. as an user from 5.10 on i dont like where this is going :/ | 15:20 |
| Malignus | limeblack: Run gparted from the Live Image. | 15:20 |
| Slifer | how can i install KVIrc for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx plz ? <--- Please | 15:20 |
| abhijit | Slifer, sudo apt-get install kvirc? | 15:21 |
| tschaka | MaRk-I and i am not xorg.conf expert and can write it by heart, but i always coudl use the reconfigure command and "click" through it. now i can't anymore. | 15:21 |
| Slifer | it doesnt work abhijit :( | 15:21 |
| limeblack | Thanks Malignus, but it 1 of the 3 partitions still appears to be locked | 15:21 |

| abhijit | Slifer, it works for me | 15:22 |
| Slifer | am sorry | 15:22 |
| slinker1 | SLIFER LOSE THE CAPS | 15:22 |

| ZykoticK9 | BluesKaj, i use a Mythbuntu install connected to my TV with a wireless keyboard/mouse (& a remote control too but it stopped working in 9.04) for my media. Good luck with remote vlc stuff, interesting project. | 15:22 |
| abhijit | Slifer, type as exactly here: sudo apt-get install kvirc --copy paste this | 15:22 |
| limeblack | I think ubuntu encrypts one of the 3 partitions by default | 15:23 |
| limeblack | Although I can't resize the partitions I still can reformat the partition table | 15:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | limeblack, Ubuntu does NOT use encrypted filesystem "by default", it's an option. | 15:23 |
| Malignus | limeblack: Encryption is a selectable option during install (though encryption is selected by default) | 15:24 |
| BluesKaj | Slifer, open your package manager / software sources and enable canonical partners and other software sources, then run sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras. | 15:24 |
| Slifer | i have abhijit thnkx.. dont go plz.. help me run it .. it is being downloaded | 15:24 |
| Malignus | limeblack: I can't say right now why it's still locked, but I can tell you I've run into a plentiful amount of errors when I messed with my encrypted home partition after install. | 15:24 |
| abhijit | Slifer, ohh ok. can you tell me what is its best points? | 15:24 |
| Nokio | Hi all, Is there a way not to monitor actual bandwidth usage but to run a tool that, at the end of the day would tell me you used that much download and that much upload? | 15:25 |
| limeblack | YES thank you | 15:25 |
| limeblack | That makes perfect sense! | 15:25 |
| BluesKaj | ZykoticK9, yeah, good suggestion about the wifi mouse and KB , been considering that as well. | 15:25 |
| Slifer | what do you mean by "its best point" abhijit ? | 15:25 |
| Malignus | Nokio: The System Monitor widget through Screenlets populates this data on your Desktop. | 15:25 |
| abhijit | Slifer, i mean what is good in kvirc? | 15:25 |
| BluesKaj | ZykoticK9, I've never had much luck with mythtv tho | 15:25 |
| ZykoticK9 | BluesKaj, it takes a lot of reading to get going the first couple of times. Mythbuntu makes mythtv install VERY easy, but it's an xfce environment. | 15:26 |
| Slifer | is it not good abhijit ? what do you recommend me as IRC Client ? | 15:27 |
| Nokio | Malignus, cool i just saw that thanks ! Is there the same thing but on the command line for my other ubuntu that is a server cli only? | 15:27 |
| abhijit | Slifer, I first time heard about kvirc from you. So i want to know hows it? | 15:27 |
| limeblack | Malignus, Have you ever figured out a way to properly resize and delete encrypted partitions? | 15:27 |
| frex | erUSUL: when i try to make , i got that : http://pastebin.com/20J73X0N | 15:27 |
| carlos_eduardo | para compartilhar arquivos entre dois linux eu preciso instalar o samba nos dois computadores? | 15:28 |
| carlos_eduardo | sorry | 15:28 |
| carlos_eduardo | haha, english here | 15:28 |
| Malignus | limeblack: Sorry, I haven't. Once I did so I spent about a week trying to salvage the silliness and ended up doing a wipe and fresh install | 15:28 |
| carlos_eduardo | to share files between two linux I need to install samba on both computers? | 15:28 |
| BluesKaj | ZykoticK9, I guess a tv tuner is a basic necessity for a mythtv setup ? | 15:28 |
| Malignus | Nokio: I'm not sure. I'm only aware of nmap and other tools but none which show total packets sent/received. | 15:28 |
| Slifer | oh abhijit ... you can try it ( i have tried it on Windows ) and it works well... good interface.. userfriendly and many more options :) | 15:29 |
| abhijit | Slifer, ok. | 15:29 |
| limeblack | Malignus, Okay :) Thanks. | 15:29 |
| dajhorn | Nokio: There are several daemons in Ubuntu that can do this, like ipband and bandwidthd. If you don't want to be charged for going over quota, then there is a shaper daemon too. | 15:29 |
| Nokio | Malignus, same here i use tools like iptraf, nethogs etc etc but i can only get the curent download/upload rate. | 15:29 |
| erUSUL | frex: try with Ā« make SHELL=/bin/bash Ā» like the error says | 15:29 |
| ZykoticK9 | BluesKaj, you can use it for video/music/games without a tv card. On another note, if you want to remote control music check out an mpd server and the various frontend clients. | 15:29 |
| carlos_eduardo | to share files between two linux I need to install samba on both computers? | 15:30 |
| jdu | carlos_eduardo: samba is best if windows is involved. Otherwise, I suggest nfs, or I often use ssh | 15:30 |
| Nokio | dajhorn, ok cool ill look into those 2 thanks a lot ! | 15:30 |
| dajhorn | Nokio: Welcome. | 15:30 |
| Slifer | it is taking abt 30mins to get installed abhijit .. is it normal ? | 15:30 |

| Slifer | oh ok abhijit .. my speed is slow right now ... i'll wait :) | 15:32 |
| rileyp | can anyone help me with this? | 15:32 |
| ewook | rileyp: then you setup a internal dns-record that's identical.. | 15:32 |
| abhijit | Slifer, :D | 15:32 |
| rileyp | ewook how | 15:32 |
| erkan^ | hey abhijit (: | 15:32 |
| jdu | carlos_eduardo: once nfs is set up (it can require some commandline, etc.) it seems much more reliable than samba works more like a standard, mounted linux filesystem | 15:32 |
| abhijit | helloo erkan^ :) | 15:33 |
| carlos_eduardo | jdu, thanks :) you solved my problem! | 15:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | carlos_eduardo, if you are using Gnome/Ubuntu then SSH through - Place / Connect to Server / SSH in the Service Type. is a LOT easier then setting up Samba or NFS (both can work between linux clients as well) | 15:33 |
| slinker1 | carlos_eduardo: what ZykoticK9 said +1 | 15:33 |
| dajhorn | rileyp: You need to be a DNS administrator to get split DNS resolution. Do you control the DNS server for the private network? | 15:34 |
| rileyp | ewook using /etc/hots? | 15:34 |
| carlos_eduardo | ZykoticK9, slinker1, jdu : Ok, thanks for all | 15:34 |
| jdu | carlos_eduardo: it's true, both samba and nfs can be a hassle to configure. | 15:34 |

| wasutton3 | is there a way to get mouse button bindings higher than 9 to work in compiz config? | 15:34 |
| rileyp | and Im the boss | 15:34 |
| newbie | hello all | 15:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | wasutton3, that might be a compiz limitation, you might want to also as in the #compiz channel. good luck. | 15:35 |
| abhijit | Slifer, i am testing it :D :P | 15:35 |

| rileyp | well boss of the network not the kitchen or the libing room or anything else for that matter | 15:35 |
| wasutton3 | ZykoticK9: Yea im working on that now | 15:35 |
| wasutton3 | i was just curious as to the ubuntu side limitations | 15:35 |
| unclemantis | uuid_generate_time generates a UUID based on the current time and the mac address. What if I want to generate a UUID based on a specified timestamp. how does one do this? | 15:35 |
| dajhorn | rileyp: If you're running something like DD-WRT on a mini-router, then you can set an override for the dnsmasq daemon. | 15:36 |
| ZykoticK9 | wasutton3, it might be that too. never used that many buttons ;) | 15:36 |
| dajhorn | rileyp: Just setting the required name in /etc/hosts or system32\hosts will be much easier than running a local DNS server. | 15:36 |
| wasutton3 | ZykoticK9: yea, the mx revo has quite a few problems | 15:36 |
| ZykoticK9 | wasutton3, i'm using a Logitech MX 518 and all buttons work by default. | 15:37 |
| david_ | how do I start emacs from command line without invoking gui emacs? | 15:37 |

| ZykoticK9 | wasutton3, that's a lot more then the 8 on mine (and 2 are hardware only) | 15:38 |

| abhijit | i have added getdeb repo for urban terror. but afterthat it overtakes my freecol too. and ubuntu starts to takes all updates from getdeb. wihch i dont want. how to resolve this? | 15:39 |
| unclemantis | why isn't there a uuid generator that allows me to enter a specific timestamp? | 15:39 |
| pipeep | abhijit, you can just get the specific deb for urban terror, not the whole repo | 15:40 |
| abhijit | pipeep, should i remove that getdeb repo then? | 15:40 |
| dajhorn | unclemantis: Because the UUID specification incorporates the time of generation. | 15:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | abhijit, that is the downside to adding 3rd party repos, you get ALL the updates if you want them or not. you could work around by installing the program then removing the repo?! I don't know a better solution (there might be one). | 15:40 |
| AdvoWork | in 10.04 can i change the close, maximise,minimise buttons to be on the right hand side rather than on the left? | 15:40 |

| pipeep | Sammi16, open up the sound preferences, go to the applications tab, and make sure firefox's volume is up | 15:52 |
| Malignus | Sammi16: Okay, it's not the Adobe 64-bit issue, then. Try a different browser, perhaps. Chromium is open-source and natively supported on Ubuntu. | 15:53 |
| Sammi16 | Aha! | 15:53 |
| Malignus | Sammi16: Opera also has a .deb installer | 15:53 |
| AdvoWork | ZykoticK9, any reason why that command: gconftool-2 --set "/apps/metacity/general/button_layout" --type string "menu:minimize,maximize,close" could cause my wireless to die? its took me like 2 days to get wireless working on this lappy, and i think it died at the same time i ran that command :/ | 15:53 |
| tschaka | ZykoticK9 btw: your http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/create-an-xorg-conf-file link failed. | 15:53 |
| Sammi16 | Under application, it says alsa plugin, but my firefox uses pulse audio | 15:53 |
| Sammi16 | i think | 15:54 |

| abhijit | Slifer: you installed? | 16:11 |
| tensorpudding | without more information it would be nearly impossible to know. | 16:11 |
| dbugger | tensorpudding, Ok, how could I get more information of what caused the freeze? | 16:12 |
| marcus_ | Anyone know about gdesklets for ubuntu 10.04, downloaded from peros but it wont start? | 16:12 |
| dbugger | Usually happens when watching movies, listening to music or using flash in the web | 16:12 |
| pipeep | dbugger, when it locks up, can you still use tty1? (is it just an x11 crash) | 16:12 |
| marcus_ | peros, sorry, repos | 16:12 |
| tensorpudding | so things that involve high cpu load, and possibly video | 16:12 |
| tensorpudding | could be graphics driver bugs | 16:12 |
| pipeep | dbugger, can you pastebin us a log before a crash? | 16:12 |
| dbugger | pipeep, I must do a hard reset. | 16:12 |
| tensorpudding | what kind of lock-up is it? | 16:13 |
| tensorpudding | is the mouse able to move? | 16:13 |
| dbugger | The keyboard and mouse doesnt respond | 16:13 |
| tensorpudding | do windows turn grey? | 16:13 |
| dbugger | But the screen remains frozen | 16:13 |
| tensorpudding | are you able to switch to a tty? | 16:13 |
| dbugger | No | 16:13 |
| tensorpudding | or possibly ssh into the machine from outside? | 16:13 |
| pipeep | that would be interesting | 16:14 |
| stukad | is there a way to patch a mouse to 500hz in ubuntu? (mx518) | 16:14 |
| dbugger | tensorpudding, I dont know if it would be possible to ssh, but I doubt it. Feels like the whole system went petrified | 16:14 |
| dbugger | no HD or CPU leds lighting up or anything | 16:14 |
| tensorpudding | how frequent are the freezes, and can you set up a reproducible instanc e in which it occurs? | 16:14 |
| * th1 whacks stukad | 16:15 | |
| Slifer | yes abhijit i have | 16:15 |
| tensorpudding | are you using any proprietary drivers? | 16:15 |
| Slifer | and thnkx a lot abhijit .. i was editing it :) | 16:15 |
| dbugger | I can't reproduce it. It just happens if Im watching video, listening music of using Flash in the web usually | 16:15 |
| abhijit | Slifer: ok | 16:15 |
| dbugger | tensorpudding, no propietary drivers | 16:15 |

| dbugger | pipeep, I thought the same, but also happens when listening MP3 | 16:16 |
| abhijit | Slifer: hmm? | 16:16 |
| dbugger | tensorpudding, I think it has more than enough. It's only 3 years old | 16:16 |
| MaRk-I | karuru: keep reading that page, tells you how to edit the file | 16:16 |
| stukad | thl my bad, did a server change | 16:16 |
| pipeep | dbugger, log file? | 16:17 |
| th1 | stukad, do you have usb or ps2 mosue? | 16:17 |
| tensorpudding | checking log files might be useful | 16:17 |
| stukad | th1 usb | 16:17 |
| dbugger | pipeep, tensorpudding, which log file should I show you? | 16:17 |
| th1 | http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-164679-highlight-500mhz+mouse.html | 16:17 |
| th1 | stukad check that link | 16:17 |
| tensorpudding | though if you hard reset, there's a decent chance that the things that cause the problem weren't put to disk | 16:17 |
| stukad | i will | 16:17 |
| tensorpudding | dmesg would be useful | 16:17 |
| th1 | stukad, but you need to patch kernel for usb with ps2 you can do it without patching | 16:17 |
| tensorpudding | if it is a hardware problem it would presumably spew a ton | 16:17 |

| metalgeek | sipior, Looking now, thanks mate | 16:43 |
| Guest5639 | IM GOING TO THROW MY WEBCAM FROM THE BALCONY | 16:44 |
| grayhatgeek | redvil If you have nvidia for example, it is as easy as opening the /etc/X11/xorg.conf and in the Device section changing the driver from "nvidia" (nvidias binary-only driver) to "nv" (the freely distributable but limited one). | 16:44 |
| grayhatgeek | The ATI equivalents are "fglrx" to "ati" I believe, or maybe it's "radeon" I can't remember. | 16:44 |
| Guest5639 | AND TELL YOU HOW FAR IT TRAVELLED | 16:44 |
| econdudeawesome | jrib the only relevant text I could find was "mountall: disconnected from Plymouth" | 16:44 |
| econdudeawesome | jrib it may be an error from bootup and irrelevant to the problem though--I'm just not sure | 16:44 |
| redvil | grayhatgeek: you kinda lost me there...im not really that well versed in linux yet? is there a way i can do it using GUI? | 16:45 |
| abhijit | !caps | Guest5639 | 16:45 |
| ubottu | Guest5639: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 16:45 |
| econdudeawesome | jrib any idead? | 16:45 |
| econdudeawesome | hah | 16:45 |
| ken__ | th1, i need a software to make Yahoo mail work with Thunderbird, because yahoo don't support free POPS forwarding. | 16:45 |
| econdudeawesome | idea rather | 16:45 |
| jrib | econdudeawesome: i still have no clue what's going on. You need to summarize what is happening WHEN and HOW in a single line and post relevant details to a pastebin. I have to go now however | 16:45 |
| redvil | grayhatgeek: an i dont have a vid card..mine's integrated on the mobo.. | 16:46 |
| econdudeawesome | okay | 16:46 |
| metalgeek | sipior, They all seem to know how to solve the problem, but i don't get which solution should i follow? | 16:46 |
| Guest5639 | it travelled 47.8 feet | 16:46 |
| WierdAAR | when running "cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec" I got "No such file or directory".. Does anyone know what that means and what to do? (I'm trying to fix my audio) | 16:46 |
| Guest5639 | narrowely missing a pidgeon | 16:46 |

| MaRk-I | WierdAAR: are you pasting it with the quotes? | 16:47 |
| WierdAAR | MaRk-I, No. | 16:47 |
| violinappren | WierdAAR: means that the card proc file is not in that directory (or not recognized at all) | 16:48 |
| Matthew` | lol | 16:48 |
| Guest5639 | what is this "pastebin" and how is it used? | 16:48 |
| WierdAAR | violinappren, Any idea of how to find it, or how to fix it? | 16:48 |

I am unable to enter commands here. I can open a TTY session, but within seconds it reverts back to this black out screen. Every few seconds some cycle (appears to be xserver attempting to boot) my screen blacks out, only to return to this | 16:48 |

| violinappren | WierdAAR: in columns without a slider, press space to switch between options | 17:18 |
| th1 | StaRetji1, after you delete it then do sudo /etc/init.d/udev reload | 17:18 |
| StaRetji1 | th1, I deleted it and rebooted, isn't that the same | 17:18 |
| violinappren | paddy_: yes quicker | 17:18 |
| th1 | StaRetji1, no because when you shut down it then saves the rules for the active devices ;) | 17:18 |
| StaRetji1 | th1 ;) | 17:18 |
| StaRetji1 | \hehe | 17:18 |
| StaRetji1 | thx | 17:18 |
| Toxicsg | Not strictly an ubuntu question but what is the standard boot process, is it 1st Floppy, 2nd Hard Disk, 3rd CD | 17:18 |
| th1 | StaRetji1, or you can sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules | 17:19 |
| th1 | StaRetji1, then you can change it around like you like | 17:19 |
| StaRetji1 | th1, there is one little problem, I have a bash script that deletes it upon start of ubuntu | 17:19 |

| WierdAAR | violinappren, I can't change the setting for "S/PDIF Capture Monitor" , "S/PDIF Capture Valid" and " S/PDIF Output" .. They are all set to "off" | 17:19 |

| violinappren | WierdAAR: press M to toggle them? | 17:20 |
| StaRetji1 | th1, I work on one, then I give to other guy, he plugs another usb wifi, and problem | 17:20 |
| th1 | StaRetji1, you can disable the persistent logic altogether | 17:20 |
| StaRetji1 | really? | 17:20 |
| th1 | StaRetji1, I believe this should do it: sudo touch /etc/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules | 17:21 |
| abhijit | ok. can anyone please suggest me good mobile phone manager? alternate to wammu? | 17:21 |
| th1 | StaRetji1, if not then sudo rm /lib/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules | 17:21 |
| StaRetji1 | th1, let me get this straight, this will give me behaviour as I first time boot to ubuntu? | 17:21 |
| WierdAAR | violinappren, Ok.. Everything is unmuted.. Everything is max.. Music is playing in VLC and but still no sound | 17:21 |
| th1 | StaRetji1, yes it will prevent that 70-persistent-net rules file from even being created | 17:22 |

| EvilTrek | to the ops ping xP | 18:00 |
| maco | EvilTrek: well....jpds banned an innocent bystander | 18:01 |
| headbuster | so do you know how can I change this? | 18:01 |
| EvilTrek | maco: indeed, but he tried to do well xP | 18:01 |
| th1 | headbuster, | 18:01 |

| headbuster | Yes | 18:01 |
| th1 | headbuster, it really helps if you ask your entire question at once so we dont have tos ccroll back 4 screens to figure out what you wanted helpl with | 18:01 |
| headbuster | Ok I will type it again | 18:01 |
| monkey_dust | headbuster, please put you question in one line, so we do not have to scroll up to read it | 18:01 |
| headbuster | Ok just a moment | 18:02 |
| th1 | jlebar, usually it means something is wrong with a syscall it's made. often it's a read() or a write() to a corrupted file system but not always | 18:02 |
| th1 | jlebar, look further back and see if there is anything or anything in dmesg maybe | 18:02 |
| CkhiKuzad | does ubuntu have a windows media 9 audio codec for totem? | 18:03 |
| th1 | CkhiKuzad, yes and if you try to play the file it should bring up a wizard to install it | 18:03 |
| CkhiKuzad | th1, there isnt one in that wizard. | 18:04 |
| th1 | CkhiKuzad, it doesn't support DRM encrypted files | 18:04 |

| headbuster | 1: Installed ubuntu via "wubi". Then when I restart a loader appears but it's not grub. I think it windows'. I choose ubuntu and this appears: "Try (hd0,0): NTFS5: No wubildr". I wait for 30 seconds and grub appears. I choose Ubuntu and it's all ok but it takes me more than 1-2 minutes to boot.Can I change this(can grub load first) | 18:04 |
| th1 | jlebar, it's blocked trying to do a fs sync | 18:04 |
| th1 | jlebar, it will finish when there is no io activity so it can get all its buffers flushed | 18:05 |
| abhijit | I just remember from his issue. I have about 14 gh of songs and movies. and i want to convert all of them to free (i.e. ogg or something) format. any suggestion? | 18:05 |
| th1 | jlebar, maybe you need to look into your mount options what do you have in /proc/mounts | 18:05 |
| monkey_dust | !wubi| headbuster | 18:05 |
| MaRk-I | CkhiKuzad: try installing the restricted-extras | 18:05 |
| ubottu | headbuster: Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide for troubleshooting.

| shaw1337 | Hi all , i gt stuck with grub rescue> problem i am not able to boot to my windows system either ubuntu ! | 18:06 |
| Jordan_U | headbuster: Yes, grub can be made to load first with Wubi, but if you want that you may just want to do a normal install instead. | 18:06 |
| abhijit | monkey_dust, may i pm you? | 18:07 |
| headbuster | Is it bad that I have installed it via wubi? | 18:07 |
| Jordan_U | shaw1337: Any error messages before the "rescue> " prompt? | 18:07 |
| th1 | jlebar, it looks pretty normal to me if you do a "sync" on command line does that hang as well? | 18:07 |

| th1 | jlebar, do you have some process running writing constantly to disk? | 18:07 |
| shaw1337 | please help me out | 18:08 |
| Jordan_U | headbuster: I wouldn't say that it's bad, but IMHO a normal install is better. | 18:08 |
| th1 | headbuster, its not supposed to be bad ;) | 18:08 |
| Barami | And you want to print at mac os client ? | 18:08 |
| th1 | headbuster if you are feeling a little adventurous try "sudo grub-install /dev/sda" | 18:08 |
| Barami | ok. i understand. | 18:09 |
| bsc2010 | Barami: Clients are mainly OS X. | 18:09 |
| th1 | jlebar, you're really screwed if you can't sync() | 18:09 |
| shane2peru | is there a simple command line for finding out the length of a video? | 18:10 |
| th1 | jlebar, try running top and see if any processes are running that are taking CPU time | 18:10 |
| headbuster | What will this command do? | 18:10 |
| jlebar | th1, Is there some equivalent of top I can run for disk accesses? Nothing is taking CPU. | 18:10 |
| th1 | jlebar, yes there is iotop but you'll probably need to install it which you can't do in that state.. | 18:10 |
| Paladino | hello all | 18:10 |
| shaw1337 | Jordan_U: Hi i gt the error message as No such partition | 18:10 |
| jlebar | th1, Actually...I see jbd2/sda5-8 occasionally. Not much cpu. Just 1%. But that looks drive-related. | 18:10 |
| Barami | bsc2010, you can print by ipp protocol. | 18:11 |
| === volci_ is now known as volci | ||
| jlebar | th1, Also flush-8:0 occasionally shows up. | 18:11 |
| shaw1337 | Jordan_U:what shall i do now ? | 18:11 |
| th1 | jlebar, that's normal | 18:11 |
| Barami | When you setting network printer on mac osx, you can select IPP printers. | 18:11 |
| th1 | jlebar, what's not normal is that your sync never finishes and it might be a file system corruption that's just not causing a kernel oops | 18:12 |
| headbuster | th1, what will this command do? ("sudo grub-install /dev/sda")? | 18:12 |
| th1 | jlebar, you're probably best off rebooting | 18:12 |
| mda_ | How do I schedule a fsck -c for next reboot? | 18:12 |
| Barami | bsc2010, http://rukikuki.tistory.com/95 Sorry, it's a korean. | 18:12 |

| jlebar | th1, I'll do that. And I'll back up. :) | 18:12 |

| tucemiux | dominicdinada, you have a network printer? If you have a network printer you should be add the printer on any OS, the hardware can talk directly to the OS -- meaning you configure your operating system to poing to the printer, you should know how to install the ddrivers on the OS, ubuntu should do that automatically | 18:27 |
| maco | tlacuache: that means a kernel update is happening *right now* | 18:27 |

| ActionParsnip | yonahw: Canonical think udev can detect all flawlessly but it often doesnt. xorg.conf doesn't exist due to udev existing but if the file exists it will be obeyed | 18:28 |
| Barami | and he want to access printer from mac or windows. | 18:28 |

| ActionParsnip | yonahw: or you can just wait until its convenient | 18:29 |

| bsc2010 | It is connected via USB to my Ubuntu laptop. | 18:30 |
| nickwebcoukubunt | trism, thanks, ill keep iot running and see if ti happens again.. Grr.. lulz.. | 18:30 |
| Jordan_U | Aethelred: Adobe stopped releasing new beta versions of the 64 bit plugin and took down the download page | 18:30 |
| tucemiux | dominicdinada, yes, once you have the printer shared you can configure it using the IP, if you have any problems doing that you can ask for help, being specific with your question -- I have done that so I know it works, you might run into config problems, make sure you give printing access to whoever needs to use the printer | 18:30 |
| asad2005 | Can some one tell me whats wrong with the following "iptables -t filter -I OUTPUT -d 127.0.0.1 -p tcp --dport 3128 -m owner! --uid-owner dansguardian -j DROP" | 18:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Aethelred: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2009/12/64bit-flash-ppa.html | 18:30 |
| Barami | dominicdinada, that's right. but i don't know windows very well..;; | 18:30 |
| dominicdinada | bsc2010 if the printer is connected to the ubuntu machine it will have that ip | 18:30 |
| zuntzikxtanlpan | how do i use packages ive got in 9.10 in future 10.10 | 18:30 |
| ActionParsnip | Aethelred: its 10.0 rather than 10.1 but its 64bit native | 18:30 |
| dominicdinada | as long as you have the print server setup | 18:30 |
| EvilPhoenix | asad2005: you could try in #netfilter | 18:30 |
| Aethelred | MaRK-I: Yeah... I know that. Read about it. But that file must be out there in the wild. I don't care of Adobe hosts it. | 18:30 |
| ActionParsnip | zuntzikxtanlpan: 10.10 is offtopic here | 18:30 |
| th1 | is it possible in Ubuntu's installer to pass a command line option or something that enables certain PPI or external repositories by default and consider them during installation? | 18:30 |
| iuLianB | hello again. i tried using the option "nodmraid", but ubuntu still doesn't show any device in the list. | 18:31 |
| iuLianB | any other suggestions? | 18:31 |
| ascor | Hello it's me again :P | 18:31 |
| Duergar | Ok, just tried running nm-applet and it's saying an instance is already running. I don't see it in the upper right. It has the date, user, and power. that's it | 18:31 |
| dominicdinada | bsc2010 if your printer is connected to the ubuntu machine and you have the print server / samba set up it will be the ip of your ubuntu machine... it will automatically be listing on the port for printer traffic | 18:31 |
| zuntzikxtanlpan | how do i use packages ive got in 9.10 in future 10.04 | 18:31 |
| MaRk-I | Aethelred: well a couple of hours ago someone installed that particular one and they said it worked good | 18:31 |
| MaRk-I | good luck finding it | 18:31 |
| ActionParsnip | th1: you can customise the install ISO and add the PPAs or even update the packages to be installed to be the latest ones | 18:31 |
| ascor | i just wanna know: | 18:31 |
| zuntzikxtanlpan | forget it | 18:31 |
| th1 | Duergar, there is some fuckaroo in 10.04 so it auto hides the icon if it doesn't have anything to do. I don't know how to get it up in that case :( | 18:31 |

| th1 | Duergar, but I would like to know :) | 18:32 |
| trebuchet | I'm encountering this bug, but a fix mentioned by a poster in the tracker links to wiki.netbsd.se, which is dead(no google cache or archive.org versions either), so I cannot see what the work-around is. How do I mount my UFS/FFS2 under Lucid? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+bug/268665 | 18:32 |
| Bogus8 | looking to install fuppes... their wiki says I should have pthreads installed... I don't think I do... but I'm finding it hard to tell. | 18:32 |
| ActionParsnip | zuntzikxtanlpan: you can't the 9.10 packages are for Karmic, not maverick. Maverick is also offtopic here. Please take it to #ubuntu+1 | 18:32 |
| Bogus8 | Any help? | 18:32 |
| ActionParsnip | !ask | bogus8 | 18:32 |
| ubottu | bogus8: 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. :-) | 18:32 |
| zuntzikxtanlpan | does anybody know why my internet is so slow in 10.04? | 18:32 |
| Bogus8 | ActionParsnip: Umm, I already dead | 18:32 |
| ascor | Can i change the color of the ubuntu logo in the upper left corner? | 18:32 |
| Bogus8 | did* | 18:32 |
| th1 | Bogus8, if you have a normal ubuntu then you have pthreads for sure | 18:32 |
| ActionParsnip | zuntzikxtanlpan: tweak the settings in sysctl.conf as well as use a different DNS and/or local DNS | 18:33 |
| Bogus8 | th1: I am running server 10.4 | 18:33 |
| th1 | Bogus8, yes even then | 18:33 |
| Bogus8 | th1: ok, cool thanks! | 18:33 |
| th1 | Bogus8, ls /lib/libpthread* | 18:33 |
| Marzipan_D | anyone know whut is so cool about mutt mail? | 18:33 |
| Bogus8 | someone suggested doing a `locate pthreads.h` or something like that but that didn't work | 18:33 |
| ActionParsnip | ascor: i think if you right click it you can edit it there | 18:33 |
| Jordan_U | headbuster: th1: Just running grub-install /dev/sda within a wubi system won't actually install grub to the mbr, the "lupin-support" package contains its own grub-install which overrides the normal one and just re-installs the wubildr file. | 18:33 |
| erUSUL | Bogus8: pthreads are part of the libc library | 18:33 |
| caotic | Hi, does anyone knows how can I enable ssh and sshfs as root remotely ? | 18:33 |
| th1 | Bogus8, ls -l /usr/include/pthread.h | 18:34 |
| maco | Bogus8: dpkg -S pthreads.h | 18:34 |
| Bogus8 | erUSUL: I had read that.. but that whole pthread.h thing was throwing me | 18:34 |
| ActionParsnip | !noroot | caotic | 18:34 |
| ubottu | caotic: We do not support having a root password set. See !root and !wfm for more information. | 18:34 |
| maco | Bogus8: thatd tell you if a package containing it is installed | 18:34 |
| erkan^ | !root | 18:34 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 18:34 |
| Bogus8 | maco: true... | 18:34 |
| erUSUL | Bogus8: you need the -dev libc6-dev ( install build-essentials ) | 18:34 |
| th1 | caotic, you can put an ssh key into root's .ssh directory | 18:34 |
| ActionParsnip | caotic: simply ssh over then run: sudo -i | 18:34 |
| zuntzikxtanlpan | is it possible to talk privately? | 18:34 |
| th1 | ActionParsnip, how is that going to help him when he wants to use sshfs?? | 18:35 |
| ascor | ActionParsnip no i can'T | 18:35 |

| Guest57177 | my root password is "x", i irc as root too | 18:35 |
| iuLianB | does anybody know what to do if when i try to install ubuntu 10.04, it doesn't show any devices in the partition menu? i have some NTFS partitions, and an ext3 partition, but none show up. If instead of installing i run ubuntu from RAM, it can see my hdd and i can mount any partition with no problems. | 18:35 |
| headbuster | Jordan_U, so can you please tell me in few words what should I do because I am a noob. If it's too complicated I will just stay with this. I really don't mind it loading... | 18:35 |
| ActionParsnip | th1: copy the file over as user using sshfs then ssh over to use sudo to copy the data | 18:35 |
| Jordan_U | headbuster: IMHO it's too complicated to be worth it. | 18:35 |
| jlebar | How do I install the 32-bit version of, say, libgtk2.0-dev, on a 64-bit system? I thought it might be lib32gtk2.0-dev, but that doesn't seem to work. | 18:35 |
| th1 | ActionParsnip, not if he wants to access the file system as root | 18:35 |
| ascor | Can i change the color of the ubuntu logo in the upper left corner? | 18:35 |
| ActionParsnip | !who | zuntzikxtanlpan | 18:35 |
| ubottu | zuntzikxtanlpan: 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 :) | 18:35 |
| abhijit | iuLianB, I suggest that you first make free spaec from windows and again check from ubuntu live cd. this is just a guess. but give a try | 18:36 |
| monkey_dust | iuLianB, type sudo fdisk -l in a terminal, to see your partitions | 18:36 |
| caotic | ActionParsnip: yeah but what about sshfs to /var/www/... | 18:36 |
| ActionParsnip | th1: the user will be able to upload the files as user to the users home, then ssh in a console over then move the files | 18:36 |
| Duergar | th1: right click and add the notification area | 18:36 |
| ascor | Can i change the color of the ubuntu logo in the upper left corner? I mean where is the logo located? | 18:36 |
| caotic | ActionParsnip: that work around wont work | 18:36 |
| headbuster | Jordan_U, Ok. Thanks anyway :) | 18:36 |
| iuLianB | i'm not installing it from a console, i'm just using the wizard. and i also tried letting some unformatted space, too. but it can't see that either | 18:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Guest57177: oh dear. massive fail | 18:37 |
| th1 | caotic, first edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and make sure PermitRootLogin is yes and then sudo passwd to set a password for root (or better sudo ssh-keygen to generate him a keypair) | 18:37 |
| Sirisian|Work | For cronjob I'm trying to run something as a test '*/1 * * * * wget -N http://wwmt-radar.freedombroadcasting.net/7day.jpg /var/www/cico/' <-- this is saving the image to /root/ though. Why? | 18:37 |
| caotic | th1: I see thanks a lot :D | 18:37 |
| Sirisian|Work | it works in the CLI if I just paste it in but it won't work using cronjob | 18:37 |
| lousygarua | Sirisian|Work, which crontab you set? the root/global one or your own user one? | 18:38 |
| Sirisian|Work | lousygarua, crontab -e | 18:38 |
| ascor | Can i change the color of the ubuntu logo in the upper left corner? I mean where is the logo located? | 18:38 |
| ActionParsnip | caotic: sur eit will, once the files are on the remote server you can console over and do the move to the right folder using: sudo cp -r, why wont it work?? | 18:38 |
| Sirisian|Work | lousygarua, oh wait. I'm signed in as root though | 18:39 |
| caotic | ActionParsnip: cp is not the same as mount | 18:39 |
| Sirisian|Work | lousygarua, I'm not sure I understand why it would redirect the saved file to /root/ though when I specifically gave it a place to put the file | 18:39 |
| ActionParsnip | caotic: i thought the data was just to be copied to the folder? | 18:39 |
| caotic | ActionParsnip: I need to work with my ide in the files stored in a headless ubuntu server (for testing ) | 18:40 |
| th1 | ActionParsnip, he obviously want to edit the files in place from the remote machine without logging in and copying them around afterwards | 18:40 |
| shell-fu | If I install a program with root, will all my users in the '/home' directory be able to see that program/utility? | 18:40 |

| bsc2010 | I hate Ubuntu. | 18:40 |
| corpsegrindr | Has anyone succefully gotten HDMI audio to work on a nvidia G210? | 18:40 |
| Duergar | ok, got the wifi thing fixed. woot woot. | 18:40 |
| shell-fu | bsc2010, ##freebsd | 18:40 |
| Duergar | thanks guys for all your help! | 18:40 |
| ActionParsnip | th1: its more secure to disable root login with ssh, its the first account an attacker will use if s/he smells an SSH port open | 18:41 |
| Guest57177 | bsc2010 debian | 18:41 |
| th1 | ActionParsnip, of course it's more secure but if the password is good it doesn't really matter | 18:41 |
| shell-fu | installing a program with root will allow all subusers in the '/home' directory to see this program, lets say kompozer for example'. | 18:41 |
| lousygarua | Sirisian|Work, i think there's an option for wget to save to a certain directory | 18:41 |
| caotic | ActionParsnip: yes you are completely right , but I dont give a cr@p for that machine is a VM at a private network, nothing sensible on it | 18:41 |
| lousygarua | Sirisian|Work, it's not working just by writing the directory after the wget function | 18:41 |
| th1 | ActionParsnip, main thing is that he wants to access files with root permissions from remote via sshfs and that does require an open root account | 18:41 |
| markit | hi, my 70-persistent-net.rules has only the comments, not rules for eth0, eth1... how is that? how can I force to rebuild and populate? | 18:41 |

| ActionParsnip | ocean: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-install-sun-java-runtime-environment-jre-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx.html | 18:43 |

| markit | Duergar: there is a Free as in Freedom version, and also one as in free beer (so bad by definition :)) | 18:45 |
| dominicdinada | markit: Amazing not to bash any software but M$ year to date has had the least major bugs of any :D to bad the 2 most recent bugs haha | 18:45 |
| caotic | Duergar: happy ubuntuing :) | 18:45 |
| kryptyk | However, you have to download and manually install the sound drivers for Win7 | 18:45 |
| dominicdinada | least this year****** | 18:45 |
| bihari | in my gtk-recodmy desktop its says recoding is finished. recode my desktop has exited with 768 description:could not open/configure sound card<< wht to do? | 18:45 |

| th1 | iuLianB, what if you boot the installer in "Try Ubuntu" mode and then start the installer from there? | 18:46 |
| Duergar | will i have to burn a copy of ubuntu 10.4 for it or can I just use daemon tools and install it in virtualbox? | 18:46 |
| th1 | Duergar, you dont even need to use daemon tools, virtualbox can mount an iso directly in the virtual PC's cd-rom drive | 18:47 |
| iuLianB | th1, tried that, same thing. I mounted the ext3 drive, and when i started the installer, it automatically unmounted it and didn't show anything in the list. | 18:47 |

| sulfuricteaparty | it wont let me do anything. i tryed the ctrl alt f1 but it just hangs there. i even let it run for 1 hour and nothing but "blink blink" >.< | 19:07 |
| Araneidae | trism, The odd thing is that .24 is marked (now) and .25 is marked (lucid-updates) | 19:07 |
| Araneidae | ... however `uname -a` says I'm running 32-23 | 19:08 |
| philinux | maco: not here nVidia | 19:08 |
| Araneidae | and I've only just rebooted half an hour ago! | 19:08 |

| dominicdinada | sulfuricteaparty: I SAID that i ctrl alt del.... and when it reboots i hold the enter key.... i dont know why it hangs but if i shutdown with usb drives attached and try to reboot with them removed it hangs like you say | 19:08 |

| trism | Araneidae: actually, not I just checked it, it is 2.6.32.24.25, just a confusing version string, it is actually 24 | 19:11 |
| ^peanut^ | adambuntu: if you need something that maps nodes on a network and can lay them out really nice in a gui/web interface...check out nagios | 19:11 |

| Araneidae | no relation to `uname -r` then... | 19:13 |

| coordinador | Hi, vinagre doesnt find vnc servers in network, possibly vncserver doesnt notify to avahi | 19:18 |
| philinux | figure002: A minor change can often be described in a bug report. The issue may actually be a bug (a fault in existing software). A simple change can be expressed as a 'wishlist' bug. For more complex changes we need to write a 'blueprint'. Blueprints (a.k.a. "specs") are documents suitable for developers to study and act upon. These should usually only be written by developers actively working on realizing the idea. | 19:18 |
| Sary | coordinador: Maybe in the BIOS Setup ! | 19:19 |
| th1 | mib_mib, yeah that looks like its what it does | 19:19 |

| coordinador | Sary, what? how? | 19:20 |
| alexxville | i have a quick problem which i know is common but i guess i didn't find a solution anywhere. my girlfriend has a dell dimension 2400 with intel graphics controller video. i installed ubuntu and it gives me a standy by mode on my screen and nothing happens after the splash. i tried i915.modeset=0 and 1 on the launch options in the grub and didn't help. thanks | 19:20 |

| Sary | coordinador: Wait | 19:20 |

| cdubya | alexxville, not trying to discourage you, but good luck.....tried installing on the same machine and never would work right. Finally gave up as I didn't have the time to chase it.... | 19:22 |
| th1 | trism, lol yes just found the same file/line :) | 19:22 |
| mib_mib | interesting | 19:23 |
| alexxville | cdubya, thanks, but i would like to try my best to find a solution. i think the best way is to just install a graphics card you know? a simple ati radeon 9250 or something lmao pci | 19:23 |
| th1 | mib_mib, so you can set --both and then it will show the header even if its being redirected but then it will also be slow because it lists "remote gems" | 19:24 |
| cdubya | alexxville, you may be right, but again, I don't have the time or patience for that anymore....I need something that will work out of the box and this wasn't the solution for me in that situation. Others, yes, by all means, but that one, no. | 19:24 |
| mib_mib | th1: so what does the tty? function actually do here? the description says 'Returns true if ios is associated with a terminal device (tty), false otherwise. ' what does this mean? | 19:25 |

| enix316 | is there a program for linux to recover deleted files on a windows format HD. I have the drive mounted to my ubuntu box and can browse, but my google-fu is weak today and cant get any leads. | 19:26 |
| th1 | mib_mib, it basically means, that if the standard output file descriptor points to a terminal and not a file it returns true | 19:26 |
| winmutt | poop | 19:26 |
| th1 | mib_mib, which is true when you run the command interactively but not when you redirect its output to a file | 19:27 |
| winmutt | so fglrx is unloading the intel driver | 19:27 |
| Sary | coordinador: alright , what is the wireless brand model | 19:27 |
| tobiasz | how do I disable screen blanking? | 19:27 |
| mib_mib | th1: ah okay, so a 'pipe' then is not necessarily executed AFTER the command, interesting | 19:27 |
| winmutt | is there an open source ati driver? just ati? | 19:27 |
| alexxville | cdubya, imo, i think if you try to figure things out and solve them, you will learn more and more about linux and the errors and such am i right? i mean i understand you don't have the patience for it, but it doesn't hurt to try you know? | 19:27 |
| cdubya | alexxville, by all means, give it your best.....it can't hurt to dive in and learn. | 19:28 |
| mib_mib | th1: so like COMMAND | grep something | sed .... | awk ....| > somefile.txt , each of these know that they are going to a file? | 19:28 |
| th1 | mib_mib, no they are not going to a file they are going to a pipe (except the last one) which is neitehr a file nor a terminal :) | 19:28 |
| mib_mib | th1: i guess i was always under the impression that each of these happened atomically and independently kind of | 19:28 |
| coordinador | Sary, i think my problem is different that you think, my problem is that Vinagre (the remote desktop viewer), cannot find automatically the vnc servers in my network | 19:28 |

| alexxville | cdubya, yeah i know, i was just saying. i'm not here for arguing even though we weren't lol, but i just like to say things and feel like I'm right. I don't like to be negative and stuff. | 19:28 |
| mib_mib | th1: ah true, okay | 19:29 |
| lousygarua | Sirisian|Work, glad to help :) | 19:29 |
| coordinador | my network doesnt have any wireless interface, is just a server, wich many users log into it. | 19:29 |
| mib_mib | oh ahaha | > | 19:29 |
| th1 | mib_mib, only in DOS :) in linux they all run at the same time and each pipe is a file descriptor pair | 19:29 |
| winmutt | trying to run fglrx + intel for 3 screens | 19:29 |
| mib_mib | they run at the same time? don't they have to run sequentially | 19:29 |
| mib_mib | th1: or it 'streams' rather | 19:29 |
| th1 | mib_mib, all the commands are running and when someone writes to its standard output it's available at the staaandard input of the next in the chain | 19:30 |
| th1 | pipe() creates 2 file descriptors one for writing and one for reading. whatever is written on the first cna be read from the second. | 19:30 |
| mib_mib | th1: so as many file descriptors as necessary could be created | 19:30 |
| th1 | of course the write can block if the second process is not reading fast enough | 19:31 |

| Sary | Umm | 19:34 |
| mib_mib | th1: but if i did that in the gem program when i type 'gem list' the "*** LOCAL GEMS ***" wouldn't show up on the terminal out, right? basically the only thing i can see outputted to terminal is fd 1 2 or 3 rite | 19:35 |

| oliver_ | I installed Ubuntu on my eee pc with 2gb ram and ubuntu create a swap that was 6gb! Is it normal? | 19:41 |
| bihari | Hi mark whats up :) | 19:41 |

| gumpish | :\ so i'm running ubuntu karmic and Fx 3.6.7 just hit the repos. I installed it and youtube still works fine but when i try to access the product image viewer in newegg i get "the adobe flash plugin has crashed | 19:41 |
| bergLNX | now I cant even shut down... | 19:41 |

| Scunizi | Alexzor: I'll take that as a no.. businesses use it for web access to programs... I run kubuntu 64 and have run ubuntu 64 with no issues.. I also run 32 bit.. so on your machine either way.. the 64 bit will take advantage of the ram you have.. | 19:42 |
| Guest13763 | I have a script at /pat/to/script.sh that runs just fine if I type "bash /path/to/script.sh" and the command line.... using Ubuntu 9.10 to learn about this will be doing this on a sever once tested running 9.10 server..... My question how do I schedule crontab to run this script every 30min right now I have 0,30 * * * * /path/to/script.sh in my crontab | 19:42 |
| pil | so... I've put a new disk for /boot, booted from live cd, partitioned, mkfs, made up a chroot environment with all filesystems in place, chrooted into it, reinstalled kernel, grub, rebooted and it worked except it just leaves me on the text mode login screen | 19:43 |
| enix316 | !MaRk-I thanks | 19:43 |
| bergLNX | maco: problem is that I leave everything unsaved... and I have this problem every time now, just a question of time | 19:43 |

| bergLNX | is there a way to totaly kill compiz? | 19:44 |

| aar | Hi, I've got a directory with a few hundred files and a couple thousand symbolic links (pointing at other directories in the system). How can I convert the symbolic links to a copy of their target? | 19:44 |
| maco | bergLNX: you can switch back to metacity with "metacity --replace" in a terminal | 19:45 |
| frolov142 | can tork work together with vidalia? | 19:45 |
| soreau | bergLNX: or just use metacity --replace | 19:45 |
| alkisg | Hi, I'm trying to update Lucid right now and I'm getting: | 19:45 |
| alkisg | The following packages have been kept back: | 19:45 |
| alkisg | linux-generic-pae linux-headers-generic-pae linux-image-generic-pae | 19:45 |
| alkisg | Any clues? Could the local (greek) repository mirrors be broken? | 19:45 |
| FloodBot2 | alkisg: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 19:45 |
| alkisg | FloodBot2, don't be so restrictive, it was just 4 lines. Tell your programmer to adjust your configuration files :) | 19:45 |
| bergLNX | ah thanks :) gotta use console since I cant really click anywhere :P | 19:46 |
| aar | frolov142, tor works with vidalia and in fact is often bundled with it. | 19:46 |
| pil | Jordan_U: everything was working ok before that drive ceased functioning | 19:46 |
| frolov142 | aar: not tor, torK | 19:46 |
| markit | Guest13763: should be fine... did you used crontab -e to edit crontab file? and added a "newline" at the end of the file? | 19:46 |
| soreau | bergLNX: In tty use killall -9 compiz; DISPLAY=:0 metacity --replace | 19:46 |
| Jordan_U | pil: Is the old drive still listed in your /etc/fstab? | 19:46 |
| aar | frolov142, sorry, mis-read | 19:46 |
| Aquina | how can I copy a broken file from a CD? Is there a version of secure dd or a parameter I can use with rsync? | 19:47 |
| markit | Guest13763: and check if you have "%" in the script, have to be escaped if run in crontab | 19:47 |
| pil | I phisically replaced it, it's no longer connected to the pc | 19:47 |
| pil | so, it's still listed but now it corresponds to the new drive | 19:47 |
| christophe | bonjour ca va | 19:47 |
| Guest13763 | markit what do you mean. | 19:48 |
| Jordan_U | Aquina: You can try gddrescue, but you'll have to make an image of the entire disk if you go that route. | 19:48 |

| markit | Guest13763: how did you added that line in crontab? | 19:48 |
| Guest13763 | markit and yes i used crontab -e | 19:48 |
| markit | Guest13763: ok, then a problem with crontab is that the very last line of the file is not considered | 19:48 |
| Jordan_U | pil: Does it have the same UUID as the old /boot? | 19:48 |
| markit | Guest13763: so you have to add a blank line at the end | 19:49 |
| haxxorz321 | i have a very sensitive touch pad on my laptop, and even when i set the acceleration to as low as possible in the mouse settings, it still is very sensitive. what do i do now? | 19:49 |
| Aquina | Thank you Jordan_U! :-) | 19:49 |
| Guest13763 | ok let me add a blank line... what did you mean about adding a "%" | 19:49 |
| Jordan_U | Aquina: You're welcome. | 19:49 |
| markit | Guest13763: */10 * * * * /bin/echo $(/bin/date '+\%Y/\%m/\%d_\%H:\%M:\') ' - uptime: - ' $(/usr/bin/uptime) >> /root/uptime.log | 19:49 |
| maco | haxxorz321: change the sensitivity settings instead of acceleration :P | 19:49 |
| benjoldersma_ | so.. i installed gloobus-preview, and somehow all my folder shortcuts open up in gloobus instead of nautilus - places menu, docky, even xdg-open ! anyone seen this before? i'd like to set it back to nautilus, but can't figure out how! | 19:50 |
| haxxorz321 | maco: i did | 19:50 |
| pil | Jordan_U: I've had to edit those lines changing the UUID=xxx for the corresponding /dev devices | 19:50 |
| markit | this works, but $(/bin/date '+%Y/%m/%d_%H:%M:\') works in a script from $, not in crontab | 19:50 |
| haxxorz321 | dang it, gg | 19:50 |
| Jordan_U | pil: It's better to update the UUIDs in the fstab instead, but that's probably not what's causing the problem. | 19:51 |
| markit | Guest13763: or you could be more specific about your problem... to make run every 30 min you can also use */30 * * * * | 19:51 |
| Guest13763 | markit I am starting to think that crontab isn't even running how could i check that and if it isn't make it run on start up | 19:51 |
| oneirosFade | Hello everyone. How's today? | 19:52 |
| pil | Jordan_U: I guess there must be somewhere some list on whatr packages have to be reinstalled to fully rebuild /boot | 19:52 |
| Jordan_U | pil: It's only the kernel and grub. | 19:52 |
| adambuntu | ^peanut^, do you have a sec? | 19:53 |
| ^peanut^ | adambuntu: sure what's up | 19:53 |
| adambuntu | 1 on 1? | 19:53 |
| bergLNX | lol, "metacity ..replace"made a mess, had to hard-shutdown | 19:53 |
| pil | Jordan_U: then it has to be some grub configuration that is differently built? | 19:53 |
| adambuntu | ^peanut^, 1 on 1? | 19:53 |
| ^peanut^ | sure | 19:54 |
| maco | bergLNX: .. or -- ? | 19:54 |
| bergLNX | sorry -- | 19:54 |
| maco | bergLNX: hehe this sounds like morse code | 19:54 |
| markit | Guest13763: google says: ps -ef | grep cron | 19:54 |
| bergLNX | maco: hehe, it is :) ...---... | 19:54 |
| maco | bergLNX: was that in a ctrl+alt+f1 terminal or in a gui one? | 19:54 |
| markit | (sudo ...) and you should have 2 liner, one the command itself you have run, and the other the cron process | 19:54 |
| bergLNX | gui | 19:54 |
| bergLNX | guake | 19:54 |
| philinux | BEER o'clock bye guys | 19:54 |
| maco | bergLNX: and it did something other than switch you from compiz to metacity? | 19:55 |
| doug__ | you heard the man, beer o' clock! | 19:55 |
| bergLNX | maco: nah it just switched to metacity, but it stacked all the windows on top of each other, and since I had no control of them I couldn't do anything :P | 19:55 |
| maco | oh | 19:56 |
| bergLNX | maco: so dudnt solve the problem, guess compiz wasnt it | 19:56 |
| markit | Guest13763: try something simple, like */2 * * * * /bin/echo "running" >> /home/yuruser.txt | 19:56 |
| markit | ops, /home/yourusername/c.txt | 19:57 |
| Guest13763 | markit what will that do? | 19:57 |
| === sarimurat is now known as Sarimurat | ||
| markit | create a file under your home dir named "c.txt" with a line with "running" each 2 minutes | 19:58 |
| markit | of course, you have to specify your homedir path | 19:58 |
| markit | what I wrote is just an example | 19:58 |
| markit | so you can "cat c.txt" and see if gets filled | 19:58 |
| Roasted_ | Im on a live cd looking to test sound quick with an mp3 on the desktop. how can I test sound if I cant install the codecs due to being on a livecd? | 19:58 |
| iceroot | markit: ~ is the shortcut for /home/username so touch ~/foo.txt wil create /home/username/foo.txt | 19:59 |
| markit | iceroot: that's fine too | 19:59 |
| bergLNX | might it be nautilus that locks up? | 19:59 |
| oliver_ | why ubunut create my swap 6gb bif? I have 2gb ram installed | 19:59 |
| Guest13763 | markit my bad i miss read that it should write a file echoing "running" in my home dir | 19:59 |
| oliver_ | . | 19:59 |
| Jordan_U | Roasted_: You can install codecs in the live environment, you can also use the example media files. | 19:59 |
| Guest13763 | markit brb | 19:59 |
| maco | Roasted_: aplay /usr/share/sound/alsa/Front_Center.wav | 19:59 |
| Roasted_ | Jordan_U, what codecs do I need? restricted extras isnt installable on livecd. | 19:59 |
| maco | Roasted_: also, um... speaker-test | 20:00 |
| maco | Roasted_: speaker-test makes white noise come out of each speaker, one at a time | 20:00 |
| bergLNX | whats the command for loging out? | 20:00 |
| iceroot | bergLNX: exit or logout | 20:00 |
| maco | bergLNX: in a terminal or gui? | 20:00 |
| bergLNX | maco: terminal | 20:00 |
| maco | Roasted_: and yes you can install restricted extras on a live cd | 20:01 |
| Jordan_U | Roasted_: Enable universe first. But for just testing sound it's easier to use the example sound files that come on the LiveCD. | 20:01 |
| samoy2002 | where does apache put the httpd.conf when installed from gui, i found the one in /etc/apache2 but its blank | 20:01 |
| maco | bergLNX: then what iceroot said | 20:01 |
| Roasted_ | Jordan_U, example worked. thanks | 20:01 |
| bergLNX | :) | 20:01 |
| Roasted_ | maco, not from software center. | 20:01 |

| maco | samoy2002: you want apache2.conf in that dir | 20:01 |
| samoy2002 | ahhh, thank you | 20:01 |
| maco | Roasted_: probably need to enable restricted and multiverse in sources.list | 20:01 |
| Roasted_ | maco, hold that thought. missing a repo. | 20:01 |

| oCean_ | the_file: watch your language please | 20:01 |
| Roasted_ | maco, yeah, i just enabled it in software sources just now | 20:02 |
| bergLNX | iceroot: exit just close the terminal, and logout just tells me to type exit :P | 20:02 |
| samoy2002 | never done this from gui before, normally done it from the command line, guess it sets itself up differently | 20:02 |
| Roasted_ | maco, theeeeeeeere we wgo | 20:02 |
| maco | bergLNX: ok so you wanted for in a gui | 20:02 |
| iceroot | bergLNX: yes, exit is logging out from the terminal | 20:02 |
| the_file | can anyone help me making my usb hdd have ubuntu 10.04 live?. | 20:02 |
| maco | bergLNX: sudo service gdm restart <-- thatd do it | 20:02 |
| bergLNX | oh, lol | 20:02 |
| coordinador | ok, i tried everyting... help pls, i have a problem, vino didnt report to avahi so vinagre cannot find vnc server connections on my network | 20:02 |

| bergLNX | ah thanks :) | 20:03 |

| realopty2 | someone name a simple fast easy proxy for ubuntu? | 20:03 |
| iceroot | realopty2: squid | 20:03 |
| maco | realopty2: uhh socks proxy? | 20:03 |
| maco | realopty2: all you need is a server and an ssh connection to it | 20:03 |
| realopty2 | hmmmm | 20:04 |
| Roasted_ | maco, yeah, they worked fine. I was just confused over how you said restricted extras was installable yet it wasnt for me - but it was just that repo. its all good now | 20:04 |
| realopty2 | maco explain more | 20:04 |
| * realopty2 has ssh server | 20:04 | |
| * realopty2 has ubuntu on both machines | 20:04 | |
| iceroot | realopty2: please no /me | 20:04 |
| coordinador | iceroot, my vinagre (vnc client) cannot automatically find the vino (vnc server) server available in my network, possibly vino server is not reporting its presence to avahi | 20:05 |
| maco | realopty2: well say you want to have firefox traffic go through a socks proxy. you just ssh to a server and bind the connection to a port locally. like "ssh -D 9999 user@server" then in firefox, go to the network settings and choose to use a SOCKSv5 proxy with "localhost" as the host and 9999 as the port | 20:05 |
| coordinador | this is kind of urgent because we use the system in a classroom | 20:05 |
| maco | realopty2: then all your web traffic will route through your server | 20:05 |
| maco | realopty2: for apps that dont know how to do socks proxies on their own, have a look at tsocks | 20:06 |
| ^Jay2^ | how can i make a script and run it? | 20:06 |

| coordinador | violinappren, dont think so because, as i said i can see the other users'screen putting localhost:5900,5901,etc.. | 20:08 |
| Guest13763 | markit thanks... I found the issue and it was a typo in the script not the crontab ... thanks for the help anyway... I guess I should have had that extra cup of job after all | 20:08 |
| violinappren | coordinador: is the avahi daemon accessible behind a firewall ? not the VNC server | 20:08 |
| adam___ | ascheel: what do you suggest for video recording, post production, streaming and screencasts? (something visual which could be used by normal people.. :) ) | 20:08 |
| coordinador | violinappren, i think i dont have firewall, how can i check that, since i only have a server and the users connect to it | 20:09 |
| ^Jay2^ | how can i know the color legends when i do LS ? | 20:09 |
| ascheel | adam___: for recording, something as simple as VLC will work. For post production, perhaps OpenShot. Streaming and screencasts? You got me. | 20:09 |
| violinappren | adam___: I'm not sure about recording from a camcorder (i guess that depends on the hardware and drivers) but you could use http://alternativesto.net for software | 20:09 |
| ascheel | violinappren: Ubuntu would be just fine for recording from a camcorder. Easy stuff. | 20:09 |

| Milkkk | dagny_taggart: Ćslensk ? | 20:13 |
| coordinador | violinappren, ^peanut^, somebody told me that i could use avahi- some | 20:13 |
| ^Jay2^ | is the .sh in ubuntu the equal of .bat in windows? | 20:13 |
| ^peanut^ | coordinador: use avahi for? | 20:13 |
| ^peanut^ | coordinador: sniffing network traffic? | 20:13 |
| ^peanut^ | ^Jay2^: yes kinda. .sh stands for shell script .pl would be a perl script.. etc. etc. | 20:14 |
| coordinador | ^peanut^, because this way i could check if vino-server is reporting its presence to avahi, so vinagre could find in network, the conclusion was that vino-server was not reporting its presence to avahi. This happened suddenly | 20:14 |
| Milkkk | can anyone help me with a boot up problem... im not sure what the problem is. | 20:14 |
| ^peanut^ | coordinador: ah ok...hmm, yeah I guess you can do that. | 20:14 |

| webPragmatist | oh okay instead of using find? | 20:24 |
| ^Jay2^ | erUSUL: how do i go on doing that? | 20:24 |

| ManDay | The situation is the following: I want to compile a kernel for use with micro core linux (or anything else, just saying) and I want it to support my very much uncommon WIFI UBS stick. I've got no clue that driver would be required for it to support that stick but I know that it works on my current Ubuntu install - what do I need to do to figure out WHAT KERNEL OPTION and what driver is required? | 20:28 |
| ^Jay2^ | erUSUL: i just put my .sh in .bashrc ? | 20:28 |
| erUSUL | s3r3n1t7: could be for the tymidity midi daemon ... ? | 20:28 |
| s3r3n1t7 | ^Jay2^, as erUSUL just explained to me (didn't know earlier) is that you do not need to edit it. Just create a bin folder (a folder named bin) in your home dir and place the .sh (with exec rights) in that folder. | 20:28 |

| Mead | Hello, I am having a problem trying to do something. What I am trying to do: extract a .tgz file onto a ext2 partition I have created on a SD card. While I could extract another tgz file into a fat32 partition, when I try to extract into the EXT2 partition I get a permissions error. I am using a ubuntu live 9.10, as in I am running it off the CD not touching my harddrive. | 20:29 |
| s3r3n1t7 | erUSUL, i don't see the use of having a home dir there, but that's just me. Let me just check that really quickly ... | 20:29 |
| pil | I've lost the disk that contained the /boot directory of a 9.10 installation, can anybody help me rebuild it? | 20:29 |
| ^Jay2^ | erUSUL: thanks :D s3r3n1t7 thanks too! | 20:29 |
| erUSUL | ^Jay2^: for the later you need sudo and it will be aviable to all users. if you put it in your home bin folder it will be only aviable to you | 20:29 |

| s3r3n1t7 | Milkkk, Personally i've never worked with timidity so i'll need to do some checking on it. Right now it doesn't work, correct? And the error only states that the home dir isn't ours? | 20:30 |

I am using a ubuntu live 9.10, as in I am running it off the CD not touching my harddrive. | 20:37 |
| ManDay | trism: well but how do I figure out which modules is used for my wlan stick? | 20:37 |
| s3r3n1t7 | erUSUL, quiet and splash are still default in grub2? (sorry for asking you personally, you seem to be on top of the things around) | 20:37 |

| s3r3n1t7 | MaRk-I, k, tnx | 20:38 |
| MaRk-I | s3r3n1t7: yw | 20:38 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Milkkk, hmm that's going to be not of much use. If you had it you'd probably know. Alright, another way then. When booting, you have the grub menu at the start, correct? Could you remove splash quiet from the boot line? This should give you some more information about what is happening. See if you can spot anything out of the ordinary at the end. | 20:39 |
| trism | ManDay: you could search dmesg output for your wireless interface (wlan0 or whatever) and see what module is listed near it in the output | 20:39 |

| s3r3n1t7 | Milkkk, ok so: Hit the power button, wait for the BIOS screen to flash by, just before it'd be gone hold down shift. This'll force Grub to show itself. | 20:42 |

| th1 | blekos, or AcidRip | 20:56 |

| Jordan_U | dean: First run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" and when asked about install devices make sure that *no* partitions are selected. That command will ask other questions, leave them at their default (some will be blank, that is normal). | 20:57 |
| th1 | dean can you paste your grub.cfg in codepad.org? | 20:58 |

| th1 | dean or paste.ubuntu.com | 20:58 |
| blekos | which version is that? | 20:58 |
| Jordan_U | dean: After you've done that you can restore your windows bootloader by follwing this guide: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector | 20:58 |
| th1 | dean, it is in /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 20:58 |
| slinker1 | i second the handbrake works great | 20:58 |
| Milkkk | s3r3n1t7: didnt change anything :( | 20:59 |
| pipeep | blekos: you can get nightly builds if you must here: https://edge.launchpad.net/~stebbins/+archive/handbrake-snapshots | 20:59 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Milkkk, does it still show you the error about timidity? | 20:59 |
| Milkkk | s3r3n1t7: nope | 20:59 |
| ^peanut^ | pipeep: yup, thats the ppa I just started using. works great | 20:59 |
| coordinador | ok , i recofigure avahi, now i have users connected to a machine, what if i restart avahi in that machine, the users will disconect? | 20:59 |
| pipeep | blekos, but "0.9.4 is no longer available due to compatibility issues with the newer version of gnome." | 20:59 |
| slinker1 | use the ppa | 20:59 |
| ^peanut^ | coordinador: I'd think so. | 21:00 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Milkkk, then timidity is not the bugger in this case, must be something else then ... go to the alternate terminal where you could login earlier and type in dmesg. It'll show you a huge chunk of text, but the part you're interested in is at the bottom. Check if it has an error, warning or something else that'd be bad. | 21:00 |
| pipeep | are their any serious stability issues? | 21:00 |
| ^peanut^ | pipeep: not that I've seen so far. been converting movies like crazy for the last 3 days. | 21:00 |
| s3r3n1t7 | coordinador, no they shouldn't, not untill their lease runs out. | 21:00 |
| slinker1 | works fine here as well | 21:00 |
| coordinador | s3r3n1t7, ^peanut^ so, i can restart avahi, right? | 21:01 |
| * pipeep adds ppa | 21:01 | |
| blekos | then I give it a try | 21:01 |
| ^peanut^ | pipeep: then taking and compressing down a 3g movie to 900mb, and it really can do it. and it still looks great | 21:01 |

| dean | th1 how do i find it | 21:03 |
| Jordan_U | th1: The problem isn't his grub.cfg, see my above explanation. | 21:03 |
| dean | oh | 21:03 |
| coordinador | s3r3n1t7, i wanted to be a bofh,,, but i think i will do when all users go home | 21:03 |
| dean | well the command u gave me wont work | 21:03 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Milkkk, hmm kk ... let's reenable timidity then by the following command, once again in the terminal where you were able to login. sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/timidity | 21:03 |
| trism | ManDay: little late, but found that: lsusb -t; seems to list the module, though not the name, but lsusb shows the name, so just need to associate bus_id, dev_id between the two | 21:03 |
| coordinador | s3r3n1t7, and ^peanut^ , thank you for your help | 21:03 |
| th1 | Jordan_U, why do you think he installed grub to the windows partition? | 21:03 |
| ^peanut^ | coordinador: your welcome | 21:04 |
| Jordan_U | th1: Because when he chainloads to his windows partition it re-loads grub. | 21:04 |
| Milkkk | s3r3n1t7: done | 21:04 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Milkkk, i'm afraid that i've exhausted pretty much all my options to finding the bugger that doesn't let it boot up. We have ruled out that timidity blocks it though, which may help someone else find your problem. | 21:04 |
| th1 | Jordan_U, that could also happen if the windows entry in grub.cfg was wrong | 21:04 |
| th1 | Jordan_U, at least it's worth having a look | 21:04 |
| tntc | what's with these three held-back kernel packages? linux-generic, linux-image-generic, and linux-headers-generic? | 21:04 |
| Jordan_U | th1: No, it couldn't. | 21:04 |
| th1 | Jordan_U, yes if he chainloads the mbr | 21:04 |
| Milkkk | s3r3n1t7: ok (( | 21:04 |
| ManDay | trism: not too late at all, greatly appreciated! thanks! | 21:05 |
| Milkkk | s3r3n1t7: but thanks alot :)) | 21:05 |
| th1 | Jordan_U or the partition where grub is installed | 21:05 |
| s3r3n1t7 | tntc, a new version should be installed, which will not happen with safe-upgrade. | 21:05 |
| th1 | dean, did you install grub manually? | 21:05 |
| Jordan_U | th1: The entry is automatically generated. | 21:05 |
| dean | so what should i do? | 21:05 |
| dean | no | 21:05 |
| dean | ubuntu did | 21:05 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Milkkk, sorry I couldn't help you further. Ask the channel :-) | 21:05 |
| th1 | I think it's highly unlikely that ubuntu would have installed grub in his windows partition's bootsector | 21:05 |
| tntc | s3r3n1t7, /should/ be? Because I have to confess, I'm reluctant, since in the past upgrading to the newest kernel has caused my wireless and suspend to stop working... | 21:05 |
| Milkkk | s3r3n1t7: no problem :D | 21:05 |
| dean | when u install ubuntu beside windows it adds the grub menu | 21:05 |
| s3r3n1t7 | tntc, what command did you execute? | 21:06 |
| th1 | dean, I'd still like to see your grub.cfg can you open it and paste it to paste.ubuntu.com | 21:06 |

| dean | how do i open it | 21:06 |
| dean | im so new to linux | 21:06 |
| th1 | dean, gedit /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 21:06 |
| paulhomebus | chmod | 21:06 |
| tntc | s3r3n1t7, on previous installs, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade. Update-manager won't install them, so I had to do that. | 21:06 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Mead, do you have permissions to write on that partition? | 21:06 |
| th1 | or open the file explorer and navigate to /boot/grub and open it from there | 21:06 |
| paulhomebus | chmod 777 * | 21:06 |
| s3r3n1t7 | tntc, did you execute that command now as well, and it ended with those packages being held back? | 21:07 |
| bastid_raZor | Mead: press ALT + F2 then enter gksudo file-roller .. now navigate to the file and extract it. | 21:07 |
| paulhomebus | chown root * - chgrp root * | 21:07 |
| Jordan_U | th1: It's because he didn't read carefully when prompted for where to install grub. I've asked for the message to be made more clear, and it will be in Ubuntu 10.10. | 21:07 |
| dean | th1: http://pastebin.org/413694 | 21:07 |
| Mead | s3r3n1t7: I am running whatever is default when you boot off a live CD | 21:07 |
| tntc | s3r3n1t7, as a matter of fact, yes! I hadn't noticed that till just now. What's going on? | 21:07 |
| patx | when doing the minimal install it fails installing the base system, im doing this inside a vm... any ideas? | 21:07 |
| s3r3n1t7 | tntc, could you update please first? sudo apt-get update and after that, simulate doing a dist-upgrade? sudo apt-get -s dist-upgrade | 21:08 |
| s3r3n1t7 | tntc, check if it still tells you those packages would be held back. | 21:09 |
| tntc | s3r3n1t7, just did it. It still does. funky. | 21:09 |
| tntc | s3r3n1t7, I can't be the only one, right? | 21:09 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Mead, means you do not have permissions to write on your newly created disk. Do as bastid_raZor told you. | 21:09 |
| tntc | other people would've noticed. | 21:09 |
| dean | th1: any ideas? | 21:09 |
| s3r3n1t7 | tntc, odd ... | 21:09 |
| Jordan_U | dean: First run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" and when asked about install devices make sure that *no* partitions are selected. That command will ask other questions, leave them at their default (some will be blank, that is normal). | 21:10 |
| th1 | dean, yeah Jordan_U is probably right. | 21:10 |
| tntc | s3r3n1t7, I know! what does uname -a report for you? | 21:10 |

| tntc | s3r3n1t7, I'll check. -v does version with apt-get. also, even synaptic won't update it. I think it's intentionally held back. Plenty of other stuff updated just fine. | 21:13 |
| s3r3n1t7 | tntc, i do not have a newer kernel available to me at this time. I would suggest that you reboot, then update, then upgrade and see what happens. | 21:13 |

| dean | i dont have any other terminals open | 21:14 |

| ilovefairuz | metalgeek: what kind of info? try lshw | 21:14 |

| ^peanut^ | dean: 2 is your primary partition, 1 looks like a recovery partition | 21:30 |
| dean | k thanks | 21:30 |
| iceroot | thewolf: but let me add this info, you see why apple is bad because you cant easily add the music because its a strange closed-source drm thing | 21:30 |
| stealfalcon | ok my pc can read my disc help! | 21:31 |
| mataernj | Hi-- please visit www.blogeek.com.ve | 21:31 |
| gurudrew | I'm running Ubuntu server | 21:31 |
| stealfalcon | it cant even see the drive | 21:32 |
| rww | mataernj: don't advertise in here, please | 21:32 |
| iceroot | mataernj: stop it please | 21:32 |
| ^peanut^ | gurudrew: try: #ubuntu-server | 21:32 |
| th1 | stealfalcon, what are you trying to do? | 21:32 |
| thewolf | iceroot: but that is why I got it... Because we (Linux/Ubuntu) "hacked" it and can add or take any data that we want from a iPod... I actually did gave some one a podcast on there iPod (that was synced to there iTuned) | 21:32 |
| ManDay | What is /etc/rcS please? | 21:32 |
| iceroot | gurudrew: there is no real difference in server and normal ubuntu, so just post your question | 21:32 |
| winmutt | im trying to get a dual headed radeon and my onbooard vid card to give me three displays, i can get either to work but not both | 21:32 |
| stealfalcon | i have i disc with info on it and i cant even see it | 21:32 |
| th1 | stealfalcon, it's a CD? | 21:33 |
| dean | Jardan_U im on the last part of the testdisk thing and it says http://pastebin.org/413721 | 21:33 |
| stealfalcon | yes | 21:33 |
| thune3 | Netalarm: what options? are you talking about the grub screen? | 21:33 |
| stealfalcon | well dvd | 21:33 |
| dean | can u tell me what im supposed to choose | 21:33 |
| Netalarm | thune3, yes. http://img841.imageshack.us/img841/4489/dsc06914q.jpg | 21:33 |
| stealfalcon | but i have a dvd drive | 21:33 |
| th1 | stealfalcon, what happens if you click Places->Computer, does it show the drive at all? | 21:33 |
| stealfalcon | nope | 21:34 |
| Netalarm | it creates a new entry everytime i update ubuntu | 21:34 |
| th1 | stealfalcon, maybe your DVD drive isn't working has it worked before? | 21:34 |
| stealfalcon | yes with windows | 21:34 |
| iceroot | Netalarm: thats normal, its a new kernel | 21:34 |
| ilovefairuz | !dualhead | winmutt | 21:34 |
| ubottu | winmutt: Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama | 21:34 |
| Netalarm | is there anyway to remove the old ones? | 21:35 |
| thune3 | Netalarm: every kernel you have installed gets its own entry. it is usually good to have a backup kernel installed, but you could *carefully* remove old kernels. | 21:35 |
| iceroot | Netalarm: yes, uninstall old kernels | 21:35 |
| gurudrew | Okay, I posted in -server, but it's a bit dead in there. I'm trying to set up KVM on my 9.10 server. I need it for Windows Server 2008, so I need X. I did apt-get install gdm, assuming this would resolve my troubles | 21:35 |
| thewolf | stealfalcon: the laser for a CD and a DVD are two seprate things... one or the other can go out.. do you think that is it? | 21:35 |
| gurudrew | Everything worked fine for the moment | 21:35 |
| gurudrew | But when I rebooted my hard drive isn't being detected properly, and I need to run some sort of chkdsk or something | 21:35 |
| stealfalcon | no | 21:36 |
| dean | http://pastebin.org/413721 can someone look at that and tell me which im supposed to select | 21:36 |
| gurudrew | But cannot find the option in the recovery on the CD | 21:36 |
| ilovefairuz | Netalarm: it's advisable to leave them, at least one older version, to use if new kernel has issues | 21:36 |
| stealfalcon | it worked this moring | 21:36 |
| Netalarm | ok | 21:36 |
| === trism_ is now known as trism | ||
| Netalarm | good to know that's perfectly normal xP | 21:36 |
| th1 | stealfalcon, ls /dev/sr0 | 21:36 |
| ManDay | What is /etc/rcS please? | 21:36 |
| ^peanut^ | gurudrew: boot from a live desktop cd, open terminal, unmount your disk, then fsck /dev/"yourdisk" | 21:36 |
| gurudrew | So I guess my question, simplified is, how can I check or repair a disk from server live cd? | 21:37 |
| gurudrew | ahh | 21:37 |
| gurudrew | fsck | 21:37 |
| gurudrew | is fsck on the server livecd? | 21:37 |
| stealfalcon | ok i have sr0 | 21:37 |
| ^peanut^ | gurudrew: not sure. | 21:37 |
| ilovefairuz | dean: is there existing partitions with important data on this drive ? | 21:37 |
| iceroot | ManDay: /etc/rcS.d/ ? | 21:37 |
| th1 | stealfalcon, sudo mount /dev/sr0 /mnt -t iso9660 | 21:37 |
| dean | ya my windows is on that | 21:37 |
| ^peanut^ | gurudrew: there might be a way to get a shell from the server install cd...never tried it. | 21:37 |
| ilovefairuz | !runlevel | ManDay | 21:37 |
| ubottu | ManDay: In Ubuntu all runlevels except 0,1 and 6 are by default equal. Also keep in mind that Ubuntu now uses !Upstart instead of System V init so there is normally no /etc/inittab. | 21:37 |
| stealfalcon | mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sr0, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so | 21:38 |
| gurudrew | there is, if fsck is on there | 21:38 |
| dean | im following these instructions to get my windows back http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector | 21:38 |
| iceroot | ManDay: the place with init-scripts which are executed at (S)tartup, so its rcS | 21:38 |
| th1 | stealfalcon, try again without -t iso9660 | 21:38 |
| dean | and that is the last option in the test disk | 21:38 |
| ^peanut^ | gurudrew: or, boot server with -s option. see if you can get a root shell, then unmount your disk and fsck it | 21:38 |
| stealfalcon | kk | 21:38 |
| ^peanut^ | gurudrew: add -s to the end of the kernel line. | 21:39 |
| ilovefairuz | dean: well answer my question | 21:39 |
| ilovefairuz | !who | dean | 21:39 |
| ubottu | dean: 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 :) | 21:39 |
| stealfalcon | mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only mount: you must specify the filesystem type | 21:39 |
| th1 | stealfalcon, I guess your DVD is probably corrupted | 21:39 |
| stealfalcon | but my dvd drive is active i can hear it going | 21:39 |
| dean | ilovefairuz theres lots of important info on that drive | 21:40 |
| th1 | stealfalcon, yeah its trying to read the disc but it can't try with another DVD or CD | 21:40 |
| edoceo | !file updatedb | 21:40 |
| edoceo | !file locate | 21:40 |
| Netalarm | what's the newest kernel? | 21:40 |
| stealfalcon | i just wont apear | 21:40 |
| ilovefairuz | dean: i suggestion you backup now | 21:40 |
| thune3 | Netalarm: the old kernels can stack up and you might benefit from knowing how to remove them. | 21:40 |
| iceroot | edoceo: sudo apt-get install locate | 21:40 |
| stealfalcon | do i need a driver? | 21:40 |
| th1 | stealfalcon, it won't appear because it can't read the disc | 21:40 |
| ilovefairuz | dean: suggest * | 21:40 |
| sticky | Netalarm, http://kernel.org - Look for yourself | 21:40 |
| edoceo | Hmm, I thought it was called slocate ? | 21:40 |
| th1 | type dmesg | tail -n 20 | 21:41 |
| stealfalcon | ok it can see it | 21:41 |
| th1 | stealfalcon, that might give you some moremessages | 21:41 |
| stealfalcon | with a new cd | 21:41 |
| th1 | ok then there's just something wroooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong with that disc | 21:41 |

| === lilx is now known as Guest22098 | ||
| blendmaster1024_ | shubbar, I can tell you why. it's because that's not the only way to detect current browser | 21:55 |
| ilovefairuz | wfamy: rc.local | 21:55 |
| blendmaster1024_ | the other way is to look and see what javascript features there are. which is the preferred way anyway, because it doesn't care what specific browser, it just uses what's there - or at least shows an error. | 21:55 |
| shubbar | blendmaster1024_, firefox user agent switcher does the job for me, but i prefer using chromium | 21:55 |
| blendmaster1024_ | shubbar, I suspect that's because firefox may implement some nonstandard javascript features that IE adds, to be compatible. | 21:56 |
| hiexpo | how do i go back further on xchat log? | 21:56 |
| monkey_dust | yes chromium is nicer to work with | 21:56 |
| blendmaster1024_ | hiexpo, depends on if you have it on. if you do, then go to settings->preferences->logging->open data folder | 21:56 |
| hiexpo | blendmaster1024_, thanx forgot :) | 21:57 |
| blendmaster1024_ | hiexpo, however, that only works of you have logging on. if you don't have the checkbox "enable logging of conversations to disk" checked, you can't. | 21:57 |
| hiexpo | welp no luck | 21:58 |
| ilovefairuz | shubbar: most moden javascript libraries sniff for javascript features and modify their behavior according to that, not according to user agents | 21:58 |
| blendmaster1024_ | hiexpo, also, if your ram is greater than 10mb, than I suggest turning the scrollback size to 10000 in the text box tab of the settings area. | 21:58 |

| slabo | on xubuntu on my old laptop, after an upgrade xfce doesn't work anymore. after login - which works - it returns right to the login-manager. fluxbox works, though. what could i try? | 21:58 |
| wfamy | ilovefairuz: /etc/rc.local? any url? do i have to call my script inside /etc/rc.local? I do not understand upstart. | 21:58 |
| BCMM | i've tried apt-get install -f, and get "package is in very bad inconsistent state" and so on for flashplugin | 21:58 |
| BCMM | how can i fix that? | 21:59 |
| ilovefairuz | wfamy: yes call it there | 21:59 |

| wfamy | ok i will try it. thx | 21:59 |
| blendmaster1024_ | shubbar, hmmm .... due to the way chrome extensions work, it may be failing to excecute for one of a few reasons. | 21:59 |

| kisuke | how does one figure out what drivers are loaded? i think its a switch for modprobe, but i can remember for the life of me. | 22:00 |
| ilovefairuz | shubbar: the user agent switcher for chrome changes only the navigator DOM object inside the browser, doesn't modify outgoing headers | 22:00 |

| thewanderer1 | hi, I've got a problem with playing a movie DVD. I've got Ubuntu 10.04 (I think, no means to check that now), stock kernel, an IDE DVD drive and a DVD with a movie. The system does not detect the disc at all, and dmesg tells me that some I/O errors are occuring. I am far away from that machine now. The disc seemed to work last week, so I am at a loss. Excluding hardware failure, how to debug it? | 22:08 |
| gdb | peggys_mouse: Well, the brute force approach I'd use may not be what you want to do. That's to use aptitude to strip the system down to a bare minimum install, perform the upgrade, then use aptitude to reinstall "ubuntu-desktop" (I think it's called) and re-localize from there. | 22:09 |
| chepo | do anybody know how to fix out of range problem | 22:09 |
| Bax2 | ilovefairuz: ye, no error messages | 22:09 |
| chepo | on ur desktop | 22:09 |
| gdb | peggys_mouse: There's really no need to reinstall. | 22:09 |
| hiexpo | gdb, i was not giving bad advice was just atating the facts that if you do a upgrade like that that there is a 90 percent chance that it will be a train wreck i am here helping everyday and i see it everyday and also i have been running since unix see get it right please do not say i give bad advise please | 22:09 |

| ilovefairuz | Bax2: may go away after a reboot, you could try reformatting it | 22:12 |
| mek8630 | chepo: you may be able to adjust the resolution for the game so it will work on your monitor as per thewanderer1 was saying | 22:12 |
| blendmaster1024_ | chepo, what are you trying to do? | 22:12 |
| chepo | yes how u do that | 22:12 |
| Bax2 | ilovefairuz: you mean, the pendrive right? | 22:12 |
| ^peanut^ | hiexpo: I did it from 9:10 to 10.04 64bit, and it all went just fine (for me that is). but I agreed, a clean install is much easier in the long run. | 22:12 |
| duffydack | I have to agree the upgrades i have done to lucid have come with problems that are more trouble than a reinstall, but thats me... | 22:12 |

| machetum | thewanderer1, I don't mean like live usb.... but to actually install it on drive | 22:14 |
| ^peanut^ | hiexpo: yea new installs are much nicer to support than upgrades with system settings and prefs setup by and end user. that's a headache. | 22:14 |
| ^peanut^ | ^an | 22:14 |
| thewanderer1 | machetum: if you want to install Windows XP on USB, you won't do that with Ubuntu - Windows is not tinker-friendly. Ask in #windows | 22:14 |

| MJB_ | That wasn't it. It was something about ubuntu something. I can't remember it. I was having so much trouble finding drivers | 22:17 |
| peggys_mouse | gdb: i did remove some of the errors by uninstalling some dbus packages. but there just seems like a lot to go. maybe that's the only way tho? | 22:17 |
| gdb | peggys_mouse: It doesn't look from this as if you've actually upgraded the system yet. Is that right? | 22:17 |

| peggys_mouse | gdb: a lot of those packages i can easily delete. but what scared me was the linux-image-generic showing up. probably some others i'd be scared to remove | 22:24 |

| Jordan_U | gdb: I can't stay to help peggys_mouse but you should have him try using aptitude to fix the dependency issues as it has more options for resolving broken dependencies than apt-get. Just make sure that aptitude doesn't try to remove everything as it removes packages that were "automatically installed" but the package they were installed as a dependency of has been removed. | 22:38 |

| Jordan_U | gdb: So if ubuntu-desktop has been removed for instance, aptitude will by default try to uninstall most of the system. | 22:39 |
| maleldraconis | so I can install from the Alternate ISO on harddisk? how? | 22:39 |
| m0dmd | anyone know about this. | 22:39 |

| Jordan_U | maleldraconis: Then it's possible that grub's native USB drivers could be used, you won't be able to chainload though. | 23:28 |

| Jordan_U | Evolution-X: What problem are you having? | 23:34 |
| sindegra | I can try it though | 23:34 |

| sindegra | ilovefairuz: I'll try that. | 23:38 |

| Jordan_U | sindegra: Then you can't get that resolution with VESA. | 23:38 |
| MJB_ | kisuke: yes | 23:38 |
| MJB_ | Nothing | 23:38 |
| tk | ilovefairuz: did not catch that, but it looks like a clean newer LTS image would be a good move | 23:38 |
| sindegra | Jordan_U: any other way to force the framebuffer to do 1024x600 then? | 23:39 |
| ilovefairuz | tk: strangely http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/libc6-dev current version is 2.10! | 23:39 |

| Evolution-X | how can i ignore this update so wont show up on list | 23:39 |
| ilovefairuz | tk: try switch apt mirrors and update | 23:39 |
| ^peanut^ | Stameni: zip -s 1m outputfiles/mysplits1.zip "your files" all output will go into "outputfiles dir" outputfiles is just a dir name, under it all the files 1.x will be under the outputfiles dir. | 23:39 |
| MJB_ | Ubuntu mic not working | 23:39 |

| kerebrus | Anyone know what the defualt video driver package for ubuntu desktop is called? | 23:45 |
| cablop | sindegra: i believe you're booting in a netbook and afaik you're using the default grub2, isn't it? | 23:46 |
| ilovefairuz | maleldraconis: they are treated like internal hard disk, just different numbers | 23:46 |

| kisuke | update-initramfs will include runinig drivers right? | 23:46 |
| sindegra | cablop: completely correct. asus 1002ha in fact. | 23:46 |
| visuospatial | Jordan_U: the second hard drive is listed as "Partition table. Filesystem unrecognized" | 23:46 |
| visuospatial | but there are no partitions listed | 23:47 |
| Saturn2888 | After upgrading to Lucid from Hardy, I tried to boot to my RAID1 and all I get is a blinking cursor after the GRUB screen. I was also getting a status 5 ureadahead error, but that's because /var is on another partition, an lvm in this case. After removing ureadahead, would that let me boot into an OS or would that just get rid of the error and leave me with only the blinking cursor? | 23:47 |
| Jordan_U | visuospatial: Are you using gpt on either of the drives? | 23:47 |
| cablop | ok, then you must edit a filer and set the framebuffer from that place | 23:47 |
| sindegra | Jordan_U: I checked drivers for my gfx card and the result from intel was basically telling me to check the gfx driver from my distro, soooo yeah. | 23:47 |
| visuospatial | Jordan_U: i'm not sure what that is, so probably not | 23:47 |
| MJB_ | kisuke: any other suggestion? Software I can use that includes all drivers? | 23:48 |
