| be | someone answer my question please | 00:00 |
| rabbit_ | anyone know a way to convert a bunch of files to mp3? I can do it with them individually, but it takes forever, how can i change a folder of say .flv or .ogg to mp3 all in one go? | 00:00 |
| rabbit_ | what's your question be? | 00:00 |
| hylian | nm5tf did you see this post? <ActionParsnip> hylian: boto without the device attatched, then log in and get teh system settled. Then plug in the reader, wait 10 seconds and then run: dmesg | tail -n 20 please use http://pastie.org to give output | 00:00 |

| monkey_dust | !ask| be | 00:00 |
| ubottu | be: 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. :-) | 00:00 |
| Dr_Willis | I bet you got a busted twinlke | 00:00 |
| shauno | Dr_Willis: I'm still wondering if I want to know | 00:00 |
| Dr_Willis | shauno: well.. having to play 20 questions to get to a real question.. makes for harder questions.. :) | 00:01 |
| shauno | rabbit_: what are you using to convert them individually? | 00:01 |
| nm5tf | hylian: yes I did-will do so in a few | 00:01 |
| be | hi jes | 00:01 |
| Dr_Willis | rabbit_: mencoder or ffmpeg. and some scripting/bash basics.. can do it. | 00:01 |
| rabbit_ | shauno: ff.. ff... what's it called.. ffmpeg - i etc. through the terminal | 00:01 |
| jes | hello | 00:01 |
| hylian | ActionParsnip thanx man, that was nm5tf's question, but thanx... | 00:01 |
| jes | be... | 00:02 |
| rabbit_ | Dr_Willis: I know, that's what I'm using, how do I do it en masse though? | 00:02 |
| Dr_Willis | rabbit_: old skool way.. make a text file that has the commands you need.. then run the text file.. (ie a script/batch file) | 00:02 |
| be | Dr.willis why is that our twinkle is not working | 00:02 |
| shauno | rabbit_: you can probably loop pretty easily then. for FILE in *mp3; do yourcommand -from $I -to ${I/mp3/wav}; done | 00:02 |
| hylian | sh lol, er or was that ./ | 00:02 |
| Dr_Willis | rabbit_: a text file with a diozen+ lines.. ffmpeg (whatevber), then so on and so on.. then 'sh do-them-all.sh' | 00:02 |
| shauno | rabbit_: sorry, replace I for FILE .. or vice versa. I apparently can't multitask at midnight | 00:03 |
| monkey_dust | what is a twinkle? | 00:03 |
| Dr_Willis | be: are you ever going to actually answer our questions? | 00:03 |
| be | it's a application in ubuntu | 00:03 |

| Dr_Willis | be never heard of it. clariofy to the channel whats NOT working about it. | 00:03 |
| jes | be: its that a question? | 00:03 |
| rabbit_ | thanks guys, i'll give it a go | 00:03 |
| be | why is that choppy line | 00:03 |
| Mike1 | hey! Is there a way to change the size of the icons in the netbook-launcher? | 00:04 |
| ugly | hi. | 00:04 |
| Dr_Willis | rabbit_: i made a nautilus script that lets me right click on a video/whatever file and convert via ffmpeg to some other format. | 00:04 |
| be | ok i'll explain what is twingkle | 00:04 |
| ugly | whats the quetion | 00:04 |
| ugly | ? | 00:04 |
| jes | hi dr willis! be is right, the line is coming in and out | 00:05 |
| shauno | be: we found twinkle. We need to know what's actually broken now | 00:05 |
| hylian | it looks like a server type, like " twinkle://post?message=foo" | 00:05 |
| CaptWho | i've never actually bridged a device before, but I have a modem/router that has been doing my routing functions up to this point. i'd like to bridge the router/modem over to a new wireless router. once the modem is bridged, how do i connect to it to configure it in the future? i'm guessing that it will no longer have a ip addy unless you are able to use the WAN ip | 00:05 |
| be | it's an application you don't know that dr.willis? | 00:05 |
| hylian | er i mean an address type | 00:05 |
| hylian | Dr_Willis i guess this is a twinkle: http://tapulous.com/twinkle/ | 00:06 |

| newby | im kinda new to ubuntu and i have some problems with my video card (nvidia 7900GS) the out-of -the box driver allowed me some visual effects that are no longer available after i removed the nvidia driver | 00:08 |
| newby | could someone help me please | 00:08 |
| Dr_Willis | newby: wjhy did you remove the nvidia driver? | 00:09 |
| CaptWho | ubottu - those links dont talk about bridging | 00:09 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:09 |
| hylian | newby so you removed a driver, and now your having problems? or are you haveing problems installing the driver given to you by nvidia? | 00:09 |
| Dr_Willis | newby: you ran the system-> admin -> hardware drivers tool? | 00:09 |
| * cmpsalvestrini listens in | 00:09 | |
| newby | Dr_willis> had problems of screen going dark for a short while | 00:10 |

| hylian | CaptWho this is a little help faq for bridging network connections: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=31632 | 00:10 |

| hudnix | My kubuntu keeps hanging on reboot at the initial splash screen. If I reboot 10 or so times it eventually comes up ok, but I get no diagniostics of whats goint on... Does someone know the magic incantation to bypass the kubuntu splash screen so I can see the boot process? | 00:11 |
| Dr_Willis | newby: a short while? clarify what you mean. | 00:11 |
| newby | ok scale of a ms not more | 00:11 |
| test34 | Which program could I use to alert me when an unprotected wifi hotspot is within range? | 00:11 |
| newby | but regularly and going increasing as a trend | 00:11 |
| hylian | test34 there is a program called wifi radar that i think does that | 00:12 |
| Dr_Willis | newby: err... clarify your clarification.. perhaps rephrase the while problem... | 00:12 |
| ActionParsnip | nm5tf: you need to paste the new URL in your browser into the channel | 00:12 |

| sweet | hi raj | 00:13 |
| allrighty | Hi. So something really weird happend to me the other day. A few days ago I created a folder and a couple days later i saw the folder in nautilus had a lock on the icon so i looked at the permisions (right click permissions) and i saw that the user was 999 or user999. What could have happened? has my system been compromised? My username is not 999. thanks | 00:13 |
| webPragmatist | thune3: trying that thanks :) | 00:14 |
| newby | im on a dell inspiron 9400 with a GeForce 7900GS and when i installed the nvidia driver as recommanded, i experienced some problems with my screen going black like shut down for like a millisecond but regularly and more and more often | 00:14 |
| cmpsalvestrini | allrighty: Could it be that you made the folder as sudo? | 00:14 |
| ActionParsnip | nm5tf: ok does the card reader have a card in? | 00:14 |
| nm5tf | yes it does | 00:14 |
| allrighty | cmpsalvestrini, that very well may be the case.. but im pretty sure ive done that before and i dont remember the user 999 thing.. | 00:14 |
| tensorpudding | allrighty: if you see a number there, it's probably a UID | 00:14 |
| test34 | hylian, I dont use wifi either, I'm trying to help out someone.. I will google it and it might give me some leads on other programs. thanks | 00:14 |
| === thyri0n is now known as zz_thyri0n | ||
| tensorpudding | each user has a corresponding UID, which is a number | 00:15 |
| allrighty | tensorpudding, and how can i see to what user it belongs to and when that user was created? | 00:15 |
| Dr_Willis | newby: theres known issues with 'plymouth' causing a black screen or other gfx issues at boot up and shutdown, but the drivers should work for your normal desktop ussage.. are you saying that as you are workiong/sitting/websurfing at the desktop you get 'screen flashes or some other artifacts' ? | 00:15 |
| ActionParsnip | nm5tf: ok can you use the same pastie procedure to give the output of: sudo fdisk -l; mount Thanks | 00:15 |
| newby | exactly | 00:15 |
| tensorpudding | if the files are owned by the user with UID 999, and that user is deleted, the files will still have permissions for UID 999, and Linux will display the owner as 999 | 00:15 |
| judget | where can i find some helkp with sound for my ununtu 10.04 | 00:16 |
| judget | the mic worked last week and noiw it does not work | 00:16 |
| tensorpudding | That sounds a bit odd though, since I don't believe that 999 is created by default | 00:16 |
| piotr__ | ikj | 00:16 |
| judget | alsamixer shows no slider for the mic? | 00:16 |
| shauno | 999 is a stranger user to be stuck at tho. ubuntu creates 'people' from 1000 upwards | 00:16 |
| === _purehate is now known as pure_hate | ||
| allrighty | tensorpudding, but how can i find what user created the folder.. I remember creating the folder my self... in an encrypted drive (truecrypt) | 00:16 |
| tensorpudding | You should check your /etc/passwd to see if there is anything associated with 999 | 00:16 |
| cmpsalvestrini | allrighty: oh, nuts. Gotta loooove encrypted drives.... | 00:17 |
| tensorpudding | the UID of a user is listed in the third column | 00:17 |
| hylian | tensorpudding is it 'tens or pudding' or is it 'tensor pudding'? (sorry for a dumb question) | 00:18 |
| allrighty | tensorpudding, i did a ctrl F search in /etc/passwd and there are NO instances of "999" | 00:18 |
| newby | Dr_Willis> so i got rid of the nvidia driver and these flashes stopped. but i can no longer use the visual effects, that i was able to use before i installed the nvidia driver. That is what i am trying to recover (with the opensource driver) | 00:18 |
| rabbit_ | What's wrong with this?- ---> for i in *.flv; do ffmpeg -i "$i" -f mp3 -vcodec libxvid -acodec libfaac -ar 22050 `basename $i .flv`-`date +%H%M%S%N`.mp3; done | 00:18 |
| rabbit_ | 00:18 | |
| rabbit_ | i get this error: Unknown encoder 'libfaac' | 00:19 |
| tensorpudding | Using sudo, you can change the owner to whatever your user is | 00:19 |
| hylian | allrighty it was a long time ago, but i remember 6.10 doing this if for some reason a user account's data was lost, unexpectedly. | 00:19 |
| Dante_J | Greetings room. I've recently done a clean install from Ubuntu 8.04 to 10.04 on a Thinkpad T42. This laptop has a Radeon Mobility 7500 video card, and in 8.04 it was necessary to use radeonfb to force it to D2 sleep when suspended to ram. Unfortunately 10.04 does not fix this bug, and so I've been using the methods that worked in 8.04, using the changed grub and modprobe locations. I've looked at the radeonfb modules directly, but cannot get the video | 00:19 |
| cmpsalvestrini | rabbit: have you installed the library libfaac? | 00:20 |
| nm5tf | ActionParsnip: here is the output, but only my HD shows up and Terminialis hung up now-the SM Reader is not showing-http://pastie.org/1061322.txt | 00:20 |
| rabbit_ | cmpsalvestrini: oh of course! I'll go check | 00:20 |
| allrighty | UPDATE: another weird thing. when i was under properties, permissions, trying to change the owner and what not, i would click on the drop down menu for the owner and would try to scroll down, but it would keep on scrolling back up to user 999, i had to pick one of the users that was int he visible part of the drop down menu, set it to that, and then set it to mine once the new user that was lower on the list had been picked, so my real user was visible | 00:21 |
| Dr_Willis | newby: the visual effectsx need the 3d driverss. | 00:21 |

| Dante_J | hey room, I'm looking for people who might be able to provide some guidance with radeonfb under 10.04 | 00:26 |
| ActionParsnip | aeon-ltd: i think so, i believe they are fairly universal. Fluxbox has waay better shortcut key support, synonymous with autohotkey | 00:26 |
| rabbit_ | What's wrong with this?- ---> for i in *.flv; do ffmpeg -i "$i" -f mp3 -vcodec libxvid -acodec libfaac -ar 22050 `basename $i .flv`-`date +%H%M%S%N`.mp3; done | 00:26 |

| BigMao | Hi there, I recently had a mishap with my email where all of the messages were deleted. I've since gotten the emails back, but they are no longer searchable because the "From" and "Subject" fields are all blank. However, if I open the emails, the fields are clearly there. I think I just need to completely refresh my inbox, but how do I do this? | 00:35 |
| ActionParsnip | nm5tf: you arent alone: http://www.allquests.com/question/2802720/About-to-punch-my-computer-in-face-new-linux-user.html | 00:35 |
| ActionParsnip | nm5tf: all i can recommend is log a bug | 00:36 |
| nm5tf | ActionParsip: yes I have tried different cards with the same result-like I said, it works perfectly under WIN XP-where should I look for guides?? also, shouldn't there be an entry in fstab for the device??? | 00:36 |
| Stavros | does anyone know all the default configure directories for ubuntu? | 00:36 |
| ActionParsnip | nm5tf: the device isnt seen as a disk or a partition so there is nothing to add to fstab | 00:36 |
| Dr_Willis | Stavros: for what program are you meaning? | 00:37 |
| Stavros | Dr_Willis: i'm trying to configure varnish | 00:38 |
| nm5tf | ActionParsnip: yes, I have seen all the questions on all the forums & everyone says it is supported by ALAUDA, but it just won't mount--thanx for trying tho!!! | 00:38 |
| ActionParsnip | nm5tf: as a workaround, copy the data to your ntfs partition in windows then yu | 00:38 |
| Dr_Willis | Stavros: check its docs/man pages? a specific app could have config files most anywhere.. ~/.varnish or similer would be a normal defauilt | 00:38 |
| ActionParsnip | nm5tf: you can read the ntfs from ubuntu | 00:38 |
| ActionParsnip | nm5tf: let me see if ALAUDA gives any insight | 00:38 |
| Stavros | Dr_Willis: hmm... would these be in the debian package? | 00:39 |
| Stavros | Dr_Willis: i want to configure it in such a way that it will replace the files in the old version (from the package) | 00:39 |
| newby | Dr_Willis> which nvidia devices are you using? | 00:39 |
| nm5tf | ACtionParsnip: don't have a WIN partition on this machine-got so pissed by VISTA that I wiped WIN clean & only run Lucid now!!! | 00:39 |
| ActionParsnip | nm5tf: try: sudo modprobe sddr09 | 00:40 |
| Dr_Willis | Stavros: theres 'system' configs.. then theres the 'users personal configs' - You need to check out where its confuigs are at that you want to change i guess. and set the new ones there. if you are compiling from source. you could tell it to use some other location so the old configs are not used at all. | 00:41 |
| ActionParsnip | nm5tf: or: sudo modprobe alauda | 00:41 |
| Dr_Willis | newby: 8800gtsxxx, 5500, somthing in the laptop.. and i forget the 4th box. its in the closet. :0 | 00:41 |
| ActionParsnip | nm5tf: http://alauda.sourceforge.net/wikka.php?wakka=HomePage | 00:41 |
| Stavros | Dr_Willis: but i *want* it to use the old config, some are in /etc/varnish and some in /etc/default/varnish and i don't know how to set those | 00:41 |
| hashemirafsanjan | jnj | 00:42 |
| haydenbech | If I already have Linux and Windows 7, which installer would be best - Wubi, Lubi or the regular LiveCD and Why? | 00:42 |
| Dr_Willis | Stavros: back them up. install the new.. see if it changed teh configs.. How are you installing? the package manager 'should' ask you what configs you want to use. | 00:42 |
| Dr_Willis | haydenbech: avoide wubi if at all possible... | 00:42 |
| newby | ok thanks, im reading some things related to my problem on the community forums but i cant find the exact issue im facing with the nvidia driver | 00:43 |
| MrKeuner | hello, which is the file that keeps track of mime-types and associated icons? | 00:43 |
| nm5tf | ActionParsnip: modprobe sddr09 gave FATAL: module not found, and modeprobe alauda did nothing | 00:43 |
| haydenbech | Ok. I'm downloading the regular LiveCD. Thanks. | 00:43 |
| Stavros | Dr_Willis: this is on a production server, so i can't really experiment with it. varnish on the repo is 2.1.0 and i want to upgrade to 2.1.2 | 00:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Stavros: upgrade HOW is the question.. source? you made a deb? what exactly? | 00:43 |
| Dr_Willis | Stavros: when in doubt. backup your old configs first also. | 00:43 |
| Stavros | Dr_Willis: nothing yet, i'm trying to build a package from the source | 00:44 |
| Dr_Willis | Stavros: you did look for some PPA's of it? | 00:44 |
| Stavros | Dr_Willis: there are none :/ | 00:44 |
| Dr_Willis | $ ppasearch varnish | 00:44 |
| Dr_Willis | found 5 hits here for me.. :) | 00:44 |
| ActionParsnip | MrKeuner: you can edit /etc/gnome/defaults.list backup the original first | 00:44 |
| Dr_Willis | [1] Varnish Software Sysadmin PPA | 00:44 |
| Stavros | Dr_Willis: where? | 00:44 |
| Dr_Willis | Stavros: ppasearch is a tool i found the other day. that searches all the ppa's :) | 00:45 |
| ActionParsnip | nm5tf: if a command gives no output then it worked, unplug the reader then plug it back in | 00:45 |
| Stavros | Dr_Willis: is that command line? | 00:45 |
| MrKeuner | ActionParsnip, thanks what about filename extensions and icons relations file? | 00:45 |
| Dr_Willis | http://www.webupd8.org/2010/07/ppasearch-search-for-ubuntu-ppa.html | 00:45 |
| Stavros | Dr_Willis: oh, that's great, thanks! | 00:46 |
| ActionParsnip | MrKeuner: linux doesnt use file extensions | 00:46 |
| Stavros | Dr_Willis: can you paste me the list of the ppas for varnish please? | 00:46 |
| * thibow fazendo as malas! | 00:46 | |
| timClicks | in my Network Manager applet, "Enable Wireless" is greyed out | 00:47 |
| MrKeuner | ActionParsnip, I have two files with different filename extensions which are both text/plain. they have different icons | 00:47 |
| timClicks | how do I enable it? (my laptop doesn't have a wireless switch | 00:47 |
| nm5tf | ActionParsnip: did that, but it isn't showing up under Computer anymore, nor under Disk Utility either-do I need to reboot 1st??? | 00:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Stavros: it just mentions a name/title - not very descriptitive.. that first one was the most descriptive | 00:48 |
| ActionParsnip | MrKeuner:yes, in nautilus etc it is read but when you open the file the data structure is used | 00:48 |
| Stavros | Dr_Willis: ah, hmm | 00:48 |
| MrKeuner | ActionParsnip, which file does nautilus use to keep those realtions? | 00:48 |
| ActionParsnip | nm5tf: try rebooting, run the successful modprobe command (use up arrow in terminal) then plug in the hardware | 00:48 |
| ActionParsnip | MrKeuner: not sure there dude | 00:48 |
| MrKeuner | ActionParsnip, all right, thanks a lot | 00:49 |
| kox | am trying to set mtu 9000 in /etc/network/interfaces but nothing happen --- but when i set it by hand after boot - it work - anybody can help me with that? | 00:49 |

| ActionParsnip | MrKeuner: you could always contact theme makers for hints | 00:49 |
| MrKeuner | do they have a #channel here | 00:49 |
| nm5tf | ActioParsnip: will do & let ya know what happens | 00:49 |
| qr_ | I just installed ubuntu, dual booting with windows 7. Is it possible to run the windows 7 install in a virtual machine while running ubuntu on the hardware? | 00:51 |
| ActionParsnip | qr_: no, you cannot run an installed Windows system in a virtual system. Virtualisation uses disk images and such | 00:51 |
| qr_ | ActionParsnip: what do disk images have to do with it? | 00:52 |
| ActionParsnip | MrKeuner: there may be a gnone themes channel | 00:52 |
| MrKeuner | ActionParsnip, all right, thanks again | 00:52 |
| ActionParsnip | qr_: virtual systems use disk images, so you cannot use an installed system to run virtually | 00:52 |
| Stavros | ActionParsnip: what are you talking about | 00:52 |
| Stavros | ActionParsnip: i run my installed windows in virtualbox all the time | 00:53 |
| qr_ | ActionParsnip: I'm sorry, I'm not following. In VMware for instance there is an option to install a virtual machine directly to a partition on the drive. | 00:53 |
| Stavros | qr_: yes, you can run it | 00:53 |
| Claudinux | hi all, is it possible to remove the notification in the middle of the screen when i remove a device? | 00:53 |
| Stavros | qr_: see here: http://www.korokithakis.net/node/118 | 00:53 |
| qr_ | Stavros: excellent, how do I do it? Is it as simple as install virtual box and start it up, or are there hoops to jump through? | 00:53 |
| ActionParsnip | qr_: Stavros : looks like it can be done http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1015149.html my bad | 00:54 |
| milko2 | hi! | 00:54 |
| Stavros | qr_: there are some hoops for vbox, mainly because windows doesn't like being in a vm | 00:54 |
| lipalm | howdy, anybody trying to install the latest catalyst 10.7 on lucid ? | 00:54 |
| Stavros | qr_: but if you fix all the disk problems and everything, it runs very well | 00:54 |
| milko2 | I have a problem with my disk's partitions | 00:54 |
| milko2 | I have a disk with 320Gb in my laptop | 00:54 |
| winmutt | how can i put my xrandr settings into xorg.conf? i have 3 monitors on 2 cards and get the mouse to go across all three but window management only occurs on the first 2, the dual headed ati | 00:55 |
| qr_ | Stavros: are there any problems with occasionally booting to the windows install? I mean, will setting this up make the windows machine perminantly virtual in some way? | 00:55 |
| milko2 | but a partition is not mounted | 00:55 |
| haydenbech | Download finished. I'm off to install Ubuntu! | 00:56 |
| milko2 | if I remove this partition extended (in which the swap partition is defined) | 00:56 |
| Stavros | qr_: no, i run it wherever, it's all fine | 00:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Stavros: doesn't the command just make a disk image of the installed windows OS partition? | 00:56 |
| milko2 | I will break everything? | 00:56 |
| Stavros | ActionParsnip: it doesn't copy the data | 00:56 |
| Stavros | ActionParsnip: just a header file of sorts | 00:56 |
| ActionParsnip | Stavros: many companys (including where I work) thrive on VMs | 00:56 |
| Stavros | ActionParsnip: they are quite handy | 00:57 |
| qr_ | Alright perfect. I actually came here thinking this was a long shot. Apparently not, :) | 00:57 |
| ActionParsnip | Stavros: sounds funky though, extra functionality an all in vbox, we use esx here. Its nifty | 00:57 |
| bennyba | Hi, I'm new here | 00:57 |
| Stavros | ActionParsnip: ah, i've never used esx, but i've heard good things | 00:57 |
| Mr_Sonoma | !hi bennyba | 00:58 |

| blahdeblah | Hi. What's the equivalent to gnome-volume-manager under lucid? I've got the vestiges of it on my upgraded system, but it's obviously not used any more. | 01:46 |
| Austin` | Dr_Willis: Well I installed the packages (nvidia-current and associated). I haven't bothered with the drivers that nvidia puts out, do I need those? | 01:46 |
| Austin` | cresuso: I've been fine with integrated for a while but I decided to try out an old card my brother gave me | 01:46 |
| Dr_Willis | Austin`: the ones from the hardware-drivers tool is the ones nvidia has.. just pre-packaged | 01:46 |
| Sed | I've got a black screen and flashing cursor after an update on 10.4. How can I get to the screen to choose my kernel? | 01:47 |
| blahdeblah | Austin`: did you install it from system -> administration -> hardware drivers? That's the best way under lucid. | 01:47 |
| ilovefairuz | Sed: press esc at boot | 01:47 |
| Austin` | blahdeblah: Nothing comes up there. "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system." It also doesn't show up under lspci | 01:48 |
| cresuso | meh no one for my problem, what time is it in usa? | 01:48 |
| blahdeblah | Austin`: Pastebin your lspci output | 01:48 |
| Sed | Ilovefairuz: I've tried that. I get a quick flash of some bios stuff and then the cursor | 01:48 |
| ilovefairuz | Austin`: try lshw | 01:48 |

| ilovefairuz | Sed: sounds like your grub installation is messed up | 01:49 |
| Dr_Willis | I have to wonder who decided to hide the grub menu by default. :*( makes trouble shooting so much harder | 01:49 |
| Austin` | blahdeblah: desktop | 01:49 |
| Austin` | ilovefairuz: http://pastebin.com/krzieqZ3 | 01:50 |
| blahdeblah | Austin`: Looks like your BIOS is set to favour the onboard video. | 01:50 |
| Austin` | That should be simple to change, right? | 01:50 |
| Dr_Willis | cresuso: and what have you done so far to trouble shoot this? | 01:50 |
| blahdeblah | Austin`: Or you've got no NVIDIA hardware... ;-) | 01:50 |

| MrKeuner | where does nautilus keep the information that it uses for displaying the icon for a specific file extension? | 01:51 |
| cresuso | Dr_Willis: Its my first time i try to setup an ftp server. Basically, i just installed proftpd, then i changed Defaultroot in conf file, i added a link to my passwords file. And restarted proftpd. | 01:52 |
| Dr_Willis | cresuso: sounds like you need to check the permissions/ownership of what you are shareing. or double check the ftp configs and docs - it may have some security settings that are the issue. why are you even using ftp in this day and age? ssh and scp/sftp work much better. | 01:53 |
| ilovefairuz | MrKeuner: the file types are determined using magic bits, not file extensions. try 'man file' | 01:54 |
| Austin` | blahdeblah: err, it was on PCI. There was onboard, PCI, PCI-Ex16, PCI-Ex1. I randomly tried PCI-Ex16 and nothing changed | 01:54 |
| cresuso | Uh Dr_Willis, i got already ssh access. But i got some friends who want to access to ftp. | 01:54 |
| Dr_Willis | cresuso: from a security point of view.. i would have to suggest to you to let them use ssh/scp/sftp and not run a ftp server | 01:55 |

| Dr_Willis | DeM0nFiRe: not really. the apt-cache stuff. can take up another 200+gb of data once you start installing stuff. a 8gb flash is proberly a better option | 02:19 |
| Jawalt | I just want a clean installation of Ubuntu. I'm not exactly sure what I've done to be honest. I've got a couple errors upon updates and such. Just want a clean slate. | 02:20 |
| Dr_Willis | DeM0nFiRe: just removing openoffice saves a few 100mb. :) | 02:20 |
| ilovefairuz | uLinux: type: host localhost | 02:20 |
| MikeHoncho | Jawalt: Just do the USB install. You can re-partition in there and start from scratch. | 02:20 |
| Jawalt | Problem is I don't have a USB drive, and my netbook doesn't read CDs. | 02:20 |
| MikeHoncho | ouch. | 02:20 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Hehe, I already bought the 4GB. I will look around and see which distro I want | 02:20 |
| MikeHoncho | Well | 02:20 |
| hiexpo | Jawalt, than do a fresh install with cd | 02:20 |
| uLinux | _jesse_: 127.0.0.1 localhost | 02:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Jawalt: i suggest finding a usb key then. | 02:20 |
| cypher-neo | Jawalt: If you describe the errors, maybe we can help you fix them so you don't need to reinstall, or wipe. | 02:20 |
| MikeHoncho | He said netbook doesn't read CD's. | 02:20 |
| chrisbuntunerd | ubuntu works well on 4 gig flash drive | 02:20 |
| uLinux | ilovefairuz: localhost has address 127.0.0.1 | 02:20 |
| ilovefairuz | Jawalt: you could tell us the errors , but you can use the live cd if you still want to do it | 02:21 |
| Jawalt | cypher-neo there are a few things wrong because I tinked. | 02:21 |
| chrisbuntunerd | you can also use as "live cd" | 02:21 |
| Jawalt | tinkered* | 02:21 |
| ilovefairuz | uLinux: what command do you use to scan | 02:21 |
| Jawalt | I'd rather just have a complete wipe. | 02:21 |
| MikeHoncho | Jawalt: You can use a 2GB flash drive. $10 at almost any store. | 02:21 |
| MikeHoncho | Or free at most conventions. :D | 02:21 |
| uLinux | ilovefairuz: im using ubuntu network tools | 02:21 |
| Dr_Willis | seen 2gb on sale for $5 here at xmas | 02:21 |
| uLinux | but wait | 02:21 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Actually I just bought a 4GB drive for $12 at Walmart :D | 02:21 |
| MikeHoncho | There you go, then. | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | DeM0nFiRe: yep. walmart. :) | 02:22 |
| hporse | Random832: yes, i did use su. why would that cause to give away ownersip of my .bash_history? what i also find confusing is, that bash still stores all my commands in .bash_history although i don't have write permissions for it. | 02:22 |
| hiexpo | walmart 4gig 12 bucks | 02:22 |

| DeM0nFiRe | Sorry | 02:22 |
| cypher-neo | Dr_Willis: You can get cheap USB keys on ecost.com | 02:22 |
| MikeHoncho | beginer: Sounds like your refresh rate is off? | 02:22 |
| Random832 | hporse: probably it keeps deleting and recreating it when you use su vs not | 02:22 |
| Dr_Willis | woodyjlw: if you can do 64bit.. you may as well do 64bit. :) | 02:22 |
| ilovefairuz | uLinux: well try it in a terminal: nmap localhost | 02:22 |
| * Random832 votes stop using su | 02:23 | |
| Random832 | !su | 02:23 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli ) . Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 02:23 |

| Random832 | rather | 02:23 |
| Dr_Willis | cypher-neo: i got a box of them ive collected over the past few years. :) | 02:23 |
| Random832 | !root | 02:23 |
| 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 | 02:23 |
| Jawalt | I guess I'm stock with this for now I guess I'll walk out to Radioshack or such tomorrow They're very very expensive there. | 02:23 |

| DeM0nFiRe | That's crazy cool haha | 02:24 |
| beginer | yesterday 45 min | 02:24 |
| Random832 | quiz_me: receive? | 02:24 |
| beginer | today more like 10 | 02:24 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Yeah it's 2Gb online storage | 02:24 |
| cypher-neo | DeM0nFiRe: And a music service too. | 02:24 |
| dustin | cheap does mean it works | 02:24 |
| quiz_me | random832 yeah | 02:24 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Pretty cool | 02:24 |
| Jawalt | MikeHoncho, I understand that but I was hoping there was some solution. I have surprisingly 2gb of RAM in here and I didn't know if there was a way to load the OS purely into memory or some such and install from there. | 02:24 |
| Random832 | uh... no. | 02:24 |
| hiexpo | root pw toor | 02:24 |
| Dr_Willis | radar3d|DT: you did enable the 'partners' repository? | 02:24 |
| DeM0nFiRe | I will have to look at it. Do you have to be running Ubuntu to use it? | 02:24 |
| quiz_me | random832: why not ? | 02:24 |
| hiexpo | :) | 02:24 |
| Random832 | you coul use netcat maybe | 02:24 |
| MikeHoncho | Jawalt: Unfortunately, no. | 02:24 |
| Random832 | because browsers don't work that way | 02:24 |
| ilovefairuz | quiz_me: browsers don't receive requests, they make requests and receive responses | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | DeM0nFiRe: it ahs a web interface also. | 02:25 |
| radar3d|DT | Dr_Willis, doubt it, what's the command? | 02:25 |
| cypher-neo | DeM0nFiRe: The music service works with the online cloud storage, so you can sync your songs between multiple computers you own. | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | !partner | radar3d|DT | 02:25 |
| ubottu | radar3d|DT: Canonical's partner repositories provide packages a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" » | 02:25 |
| MikeHoncho | beginer: Still sounds like a refresh rate problem and it becomes obvious as the monitor gets warm. I'd try playing with that. | 02:25 |
| acovrig | can/how do I msg other clients in an ssh session? kinda like wall, only not broadcast, just for 1 tty | 02:25 |
| Dr_Willis | !java | radar3d|DT | 02:25 |
| ubottu | radar3d|DT: To install a Java runtime on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java. For the Sun Java products and browser plugin, search for the sun-java6- packages in the !partner repository on Lucid (which must be enabled), or !multiverse repository on older releases. | 02:25 |
| MikeHoncho | beginer: I don't know what the latest drivers are, but make sure you have those. | 02:25 |
| quiz_me | ilovefairuz i know, but what if we made a browser that could receive a POST request, then we would have "push" updates | 02:25 |
| DeM0nFiRe | TBH I am probably not going to use it because I have tons of my own web storage if I wanted already | 02:25 |

| MikeHoncho | jawalt: I guess you could create a partition that's 2gb or so, put the bootable Ubuntu on that, then install from that drive to the other one. | 02:26 |

| ilovefairuz | uLinux: that means it works | 02:28 |
| _jesse_ | uLinux: the two IP thing is just because there is an IPv6 address for localhost too | 02:28 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Maybe I will try Xubuntu | 02:28 |
| jt__ | hey I am having problems connecting to my university wifi (WPA2 TTLS PAP encryption) it ONLY works on the first attempt after resuming from standby. I believe its a driver problem. I have syslogs showing the behaviour. | 02:28 |
| magicianlord | Dr_Willis: i didnt install nouveau, which normally does this. is this the nv driver, or is it somehow set properly, and if so in which file | 02:28 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Says 1GB for xubuntu | 02:28 |
| Dr_Willis | DeM0nFiRe: theres lubuntu also. | 02:28 |
| uLinux | _jesse_: I thought I disabled ipv6 :\ | 02:28 |
| Mr_Sonoma | quiz_me, wireshark will do that | 02:28 |
| uLinux | wait | 02:28 |
| MikeHoncho | Jawalt: You would have to use a Partition Manager, basically create 2 virtual disks out of the one you have now. | 02:29 |
| DeM0nFiRe | If I do 64 bit xubuntu, I can use a smaller swap file since it can use the RAM as swap, right? | 02:29 |
| _jesse_ | uLinux: comment out the lines in /etc/hosts for ipv6 then | 02:29 |
| dustin | lubuntu yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 | 02:29 |
| beginer | mikehoncho>i did check there were the nvidia proprietary drivers | 02:29 |
| Dr_Willis | magicianlord: nouveau and nv are the X drivers.. they dont handle the console. Im not sure on your actual question/problem. | 02:29 |
| Dr_Willis | DeM0nFiRe: that dosent make a lot of sence... | 02:29 |

| DeM0nFiRe | So the recommended swap size is equal to your ram? | 02:31 |
| magicianlord | no | 02:31 |
| pervy_sage | Hey | 02:31 |
| DeM0nFiRe | I have 6GB RAM, haha, I can't fit a 6GB swap on a 4Gb drive lol | 02:31 |

| shauno | DeM0nFiRe: I'd be surprised if you really need much with that much RAM. on the other hand, suspend/resume isn't going to function unless your swap can easily swallow your ram | 02:35 |

| DeM0nFiRe | I would do Ubuntu but Ubuntu on a 4GB is probably cutting it too close | 02:37 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Yeah I will do a 256MB swap file | 02:37 |
| thune3 | DeM0nFiRe: with 6GB ram, i wouldn't even bother with 256M of swap. IMO, if you can't do at least 1GB swap, don't bother. | 02:37 |
| Da_Wrecka | yeah, on a 4GB it's kinda too close. I installed UNE on my netbook, and I had about 3.2GB free space on an 8GB SSD. | 02:37 |
| TomT64 | anyone know a livecd that will run on a 256 MB USB stick and has both testdisk and gparted? | 02:38 |
| magicianlord | never mind. i figured it out | 02:38 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Yeah I will do Xubuntu probably | 02:38 |
| DeM0nFiRe | That should give me at least 2Gb free space for programs and config files | 02:38 |

| DeM0nFiRe | Haha, I remember I used to use Xubuntu live CD as a utility disk for repair | 02:39 |
| Dr_Willis | TomT64: ive seen very few live disrtos that are under 200mb in size. | 02:39 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Mr_Sonoma: I said Xubuntu, it's smaller | 02:39 |
| DeM0nFiRe | According to the website, ~1GB | 02:39 |
| ilovefairuz | jt___: i looked at the logs and please file a bug | 02:39 |
| DeM0nFiRe | So the question I have | 02:39 |
| jt___ | ok | 02:39 |
| Mr_Sonoma | DeM0nFiRe, i know, i was just giving you a comparison for your ubuntu consideration comment | 02:39 |
| econdudeawesome | Dr_Willis I'm not sure how to report bugs, so I wanted to through that your way | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | econdudeawesome: that seem more like a 'fluke' then a fix. I had mine 'fixed' several times then the problem came back.. untill i set up the longer timeout. | 02:40 |
| Da_Wrecka | On an unrelated note, technical question that's not really Ubuntu-related; If we're comparing two otherwise-identical SATA NCQ hard drives, is there going to be that much of a performance difference between 32MB cache and 64MB? | 02:40 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Does are there working video drivers for Xubuntu for my HD5800 series lol | 02:40 |
| gekko95 | Anyone? HP mini 2133 w/an external monitor? | 02:40 |
| === Guest91872 is now known as cypher-neo | ||
| jt___ | ilovefairuz: shall | 02:40 |
| econdudeawesome | Dr_Willis not sure its a fluke--I've set up this system and then put on about 3 GB of software and updates--I figured reinstalling gdm would automatically fix config files | 02:40 |
| aogo | hallo ppl any one up | 02:41 |
| Dr_Willis | econdudeawesome: gekko95 my netbook. i plugged in external, booted up. used the fn-whatever keys to toggle on the external, then used the 'monitors' tool to set the proper res. | 02:41 |
| jt___ | ilovefairuz: shall I go to #ubuntu-bugs for help with that? | 02:41 |
| aogo | need small help | 02:41 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Da_Wrecka: I would think it would make things like defragging and such significantly faster because it can work with 64MB chunks | 02:41 |
| Da_Wrecka | gekko95: I can't help personally... I didn't have problems with an external monitor on my netbook, I just hooked it up and it worked, but mine is an Acer Aspire One. | 02:41 |
| ilovefairuz | jt___: you could | 02:41 |
| dustin | most likely,run it in vm ware first on that computer, to see | 02:41 |
| aogo | need to USB Startup Disk Creator for win 7 in side ubuntu 10.04 | 02:41 |
| Dr_Willis | econdudeawesome: reinstalling gdm would reinsstall the identical original config files.. IF you had 'purged' gdm. if you removed gdm but did not use purge.. then it should of kept the earlier config files.. so i dont see how your method changed anything at all. | 02:42 |
| aogo | is that any tool... out the ? | 02:42 |
| gekko95 | Dr_Willis, Da_Wrecha thanks ;-) I did the same function f5 + monitors tool but only managed to mimic the native resolution and not the monitors... | 02:42 |
| Da_Wrecka | DeM0nFiRe: That's an educated guess I presume? I was hoping for something a smidge more solid :/ | 02:42 |
| Dr_Willis | aogo: check the 'pendrivelinux' web site they have tools | 02:42 |
| Jawalt | MikeHoncho: Would UNetBootin allow me to do what I'm trying to do, would you know? | 02:43 |
| Dr_Willis | gekko95: i had to play with the tools/settings a bit. but once i got it going. it works well now. I do have tb be sure to plug in the monitor BEFOR i power up the netbook | 02:43 |
| aogo | i well dr | 02:43 |
| aogo | but u understand my need | 02:43 |
| aogo | =) | 02:43 |
| Dr_Willis | aogo: the pendrivelinux web site has several tools for doing that stuff. | 02:43 |
| aogo | just need to make win 7 usb u now | 02:43 |
| gekko95 | Dr_Willis, good idea...I'll give it a shot, thx | 02:43 |
| aogo | tnx | 02:44 |
| Dr_Willis | aogo: a usb tio boot win7? see #windows | 02:44 |
| === uLinux is now known as uLinux_ | ||
| Dr_Willis | aogo: theres proberly no tools to make a bootable WIn7 usb flash drive from linux. At least none ive ever seen mentioned. | 02:44 |
| Dr_Willis | Unless you used a windows tool in wine to do it. | 02:44 |
| aogo | no good .. | 02:45 |
| qr_ | Hi! I was in here earlier asking about running an installed windows 7 in virtualbox. I've installed VB, but Windows bluescreens at the login page unless I boot to safe mode. Is there a way to fix this? I've found related problems on google, but none of the fixes there work for me. | 02:45 |
| econdudeawesome | Dr_Willis true enough. I'll give it a purge and see how it goes | 02:45 |
| aogo | just need to make one to my work laptop wish need win 7 :( | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | qr_: thats basically the same as moving the win7 install to a 'new' machine. that might trigger the windows 'anti piracy' stuff. so be carefull. | 02:46 |
| aogo | and that laptop thas not have any os right now :( | 02:46 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Kind of sucks I have to use Xubuntu lol | 02:46 |
| DeM0nFiRe | I should have read the speqs before I went there was 8GB drives for $20 | 02:47 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Err | 02:47 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Specs heh | 02:47 |
| aogo | dr willis so u think that it is no small tools out :( | 02:47 |
| qr_ | Dr_Willis: I haven't even gotten to that stage. It's blue screening at the login page. Also it is a legitimate copy of windows 7 so I am not too worried about the anti-piracy stuff. | 02:47 |
| Dr_Willis | qr_: its legimit to use it on one machine.. that still may trigger the reactivation . and if you boot back to the machine using it normally.. that may re-trigger it.. and soon you will get it disabled. | 02:48 |
| === brebrebrebre is now known as |_ocke | ||
| Dr_Willis | qr_: i would say check the virtualbox channel/forums its not really a ubuntu related problem. | 02:48 |
| pastaisgood | aogo: Do you want to do a full Windows 7 install from you USB drive? | 02:49 |
| _jesse_ | Dr_Willis qr_: pretty sure the keys generally work on 3 machines, and it definitely wouldn't bluescreen because of that :P | 02:49 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Has anyone here been able to run Xubuntu with good video drivers on a Radeon HD5800 card? | 02:49 |
| shauno | qr_: you can still trip the anti-piracy stuff with a legit version. it's just easier to fix with a license. | 02:49 |
| aogo | yes from the ubuntu linux .... | 02:49 |
| qr_ | Dr_Willis: yeah, not strictly ubuntu related, but there were some people here earlier who claimed they had this working. | 02:49 |
| cypher-neo | DeM0nFiRe: Radeon is ATI? | 02:49 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Yes | 02:49 |
| _jesse_ | qr_: I've used windows 7 in virtual box fine | 02:49 |
| _jesse_ | qr_: still am actually | 02:49 |
| qr_ | _jesse_: I'm trying to run a copy of windows 7 that is already installed on the HD. | 02:50 |
| cypher-neo | DeM0nFiRe: Not I. My chipset is NVidia. I do know there are some ATI drivers available in Synaptic though. | 02:50 |
| pervy_sage | ls | 02:50 |
| hiexpo | ati made in europe | 02:50 |
| qr_ | _jesse_: I installed ubuntu as my second os and I'm trying to boot the original windows 7 install inside virtualbox | 02:50 |
| _jesse_ | qr_: ah, hmm I'm not sure if that will work well | 02:50 |
| hiexpo | psssssss | 02:50 |
| aogo | pastaisgood do u now how are have any small tool out thare ...? | 02:50 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Yeah cypher-neo I just don't know if they work haha | 02:50 |
| pastaisgood | aogo: An easy way to do that would be to get grub4dos on your USB drive and start the Windows install from there. | 02:50 |
| DeM0nFiRe | I can't deal with the generic driver that comes with a distro, 60hz kills my eyes and head haha | 02:51 |
| Dr_Willis | the virtualbox docs/guides and so forth spefifically say its 'not a good idea' :) | 02:51 |
| qr_ | _jesse_: well it works in safe mode okay. but something goes wrong if I boot normally | 02:51 |
| _jesse_ | qr_: windows definitely should read the VM as a different computer doing it that way | 02:51 |
| lynstefan | Oi alguem BR? | 02:51 |
| qr_ | Dr_Willis: do they? Where? I haven't come across that warning | 02:51 |

| hiexpo | ati = canada | 02:51 |
| ubottu | lynstefan: Entre em #ubuntu-br usando /join #ubuntu-br para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 02:51 |
| cypher-neo | DeM0nFiRe: Give it a shot. Most of the video drivers in Ubuntu work natively; they are installed during the initial install when Ubuntu detects your hardware. | 02:51 |
| londonmet050 | hello filks | 02:51 |
| lynstefan | ok! | 02:51 |
| cypher-neo | Hi londonmet050 | 02:52 |
| londonmet050 | I am trying to share folders windows 7 and ubuntu | 02:52 |
| aogo | i understand i have hall the iso mounted in the usa but still not working to boot from | 02:52 |
| DeM0nFiRe | cypher-neo: Well, we'll see. The 5800 is the new one, so I know Fedora 12 didn't have drivers when I was looking a couple months ago | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | qr_: go check the virtualbox manual. I seem to recall warnings about using vbox to access 'physical' drives - having potential problems with data curruption. | 02:52 |
| londonmet050 | When I try my win 7 i.p via smb | 02:52 |
| londonmet050 | it asks me for user name and password | 02:52 |
| londonmet050 | and I gave my win7 credentials | 02:52 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Anyway I will be back in a bit, downloading Xubuntu live CD | 02:52 |
| shauno | hiexpo: that's largely irrelevant. and try to remember you're addressing a global audience. plenty of canadians & europeans here :) | 02:52 |
| londonmet050 | no luck | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | qr_: You would be 'safer' imageing the 'real' hard drive into a virtuialbox hd image. thats the normal 'reccomendation' i recall. | 02:52 |
| The20Year | does wubi do a good job of installing ubuntu? | 02:53 |
| cypher-neo | That would likely be your Ubuntu username and password londonmet050. | 02:53 |
| londonmet050 | ok | 02:53 |
| qr_ | Dr_Willis: yes, but I have some 200 odd gigs of data attached to that partition | 02:53 |
| qr_ | Dr_Willis: and not enough space to copy it | 02:53 |
| _jesse_ | cypher-neo: ? no that should be the windows username and password | 02:53 |
| Dr_Willis | The20Year: i woud avoide wubi if at all possible | 02:53 |
| MikeHoncho | Jawalt: Good idea. That should work. | 02:53 |
| londonmet050 | ? | 02:53 |
| aogo | do u have any solution ? | 02:53 |
| The20Year | is there any other way to install ubuntu without a live CD or usb? | 02:53 |
| TimothyA | could someone tell me which package has the 'push' command? | 02:53 |
| qr_ | Dr_Willis: I'd also like to preserve the ability to boot to windows. | 02:53 |

| Jordan_U | !installl | The20Year | 02:53 |

| The20Year | jordan , what do you mean? | 02:54 |
| Dr_Willis | qr_: i hope you have backups.. becuase using virtualbox to access a 'physical' drive directly, is somthing ive heard that CAN cause data loss. but ive not tried/looked into it in a abouyt a year. | 02:54 |
| cypher-neo | _jesse_, if he's trying to access his Ubuntu partition from Windows, he would be asked for his Ubuntu username and password to decrypt, wouldn't he? | 02:54 |

| ZykoticK9 | Dr_Willis, "no one", hey I did! Sorta | 02:56 |
| ZykoticK9 | qr_, correct! | 02:56 |
| shauno | qr_: I'd read that as "tread carefully, keep backups. and don't say we didn't warn you" | 02:56 |
| tpl2000 | So.....Sudo get-apt install won't work for me. | 02:57 |
| coventry | (Asking this again, in the hopes that there are more people around.) I have ubuntu 10.04 on a Lenovo T61. Ubuntu no longer responds to activity on the touchpad or the mouse buttons below the touchpad. Activity on the touchpad does result in output from /dev/psaux, though, which makes me think it may be some kind of inadvertant misconfiguration, rather than a hardware failure. (I am acquiriring some CD-R's so that I can boot fr | 02:57 |
| coventry | live CD to check for sure, but it's going to take a little while as I'm traveling.) | 02:57 |
| tpl2000 | Apparently due to an error with playonlinux.list | 02:57 |
| coventry | The trackpoint (nipple) and the mouse buttons below the spacebar still work. Turning the touchpad off and then on using gnome-mouse-properties or gpointing-device-settings doesn't help. Fn+F8 doesn't help. Rebooting doesn't help. Is there anything else I can try to diagnose this? | 02:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | qr_, i use virtualbox a ton, but i've never tried with physical partition(s). Good luck man. | 02:57 |
| epinky | tpl2000: sudo apt-get ? | 02:57 |

| TimothyA | but even the 'pushd' package doesn't exist :| | 03:04 |
| _jesse_ | tpl2000: or there is something terribly wrong | 03:04 |

| thune3 | the " Heimdal Kerberos - clients" package heimdal-clients in universe repo (on 9.10) has such a command, but I do not think it is what you are looking for. What is this command 'push' supposed to do? | 03:05 |
| cypher-neo | That should be fine Lanh | 03:05 |
| _jesse_ | tpl2000: it's just a command line text editor | 03:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | paul__, ubottu is a BOT (not real person), i sent you the !tab because you where typing my nic incorrectly and all you need to do is type Zy(TAB) | 03:05 |

| phanindra | i have mounted windows drives into ubuntu. but when i click on the folder that i have mounted, the desktop is getting inactive. can any one help me? | 03:06 |
| PyChild | Hello? | 03:06 |
| PyChild | Is this thing on? | 03:06 |
| Mr_Sonoma | !hi | PyChild | 03:06 |
| ubottu | PyChild: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! Feel free to ask questions and help people out. The channel guidelines are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/Guidelines . Enjoy your stay! | 03:06 |
| Jordan_U | PyChild: No. | 03:07 |
| PyChild | hehehe | 03:07 |
| PyChild | Hi guys, Mostly idle question here | 03:07 |
| paul__ | BRB | 03:07 |
| ZykoticK9 | paul__, IRC like linux is cAsE senstive ;) | 03:07 |
| PyChild | I'm about to convert a bunch of vinyl records into digital and want some comments | 03:07 |
| phanindra | i have mounted windows drives into ubuntu. but when i click on the folder that i have mounted, the desktop is getting inactive. can any one help me? | 03:08 |
| coz_ | PyChild, go for it :) | 03:08 |
| PyChild | Suggestions? I'm thingin of using Audacity recording from microphone and encoding to flacc | 03:08 |
| tpl2000 | Alright, I edited the file...When I exit out of the terminal, will it have been saved? | 03:08 |
| ilovefairuz | phanindra: slow network ? | 03:08 |
| Mr_Sonoma | PyChild, you'll capture ambient noise that way too | 03:08 |
| _jesse_ | tpl2000: it'll prompt you to save on exit | 03:08 |
| coz_ | PyChild, ooo hold on i think I just saw something this week | 03:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | PyChild, flac might be excessive quality for your recordings, but it's up to you - if you got the size go for it :) | 03:08 |
| _jesse_ | tpl2000: hit ctrl-X | 03:08 |
| Jordan_U | PyChild: You mean from your microphone input jack correct? Don't actually use a microphone. | 03:08 |
| PyChild | jordan_U of cooooooooooooooourse :) | 03:09 |
| wrektjet | hey does anyone know where i can find support for the empathy client built into 10.04? | 03:09 |
| econdudeawesome | If I set up a mount point as say /mount/<name>, and I want to be able to write to it, do I do sudo chown -R <username>:<username> /mount/<name>? | 03:09 |
| phanindra | no i have mounted 2 drives, 1 is working properly, but the other is not | 03:09 |
| Mr_Sonoma | Jordan_U, if you feed the speaker output directly into the microphone input jack wouldn't you stand a chance of over driving the input? | 03:09 |
| PyChild | with a 3mm to 3mm plug | 03:09 |
| tpl2000 | Alright, and it didn't actually change anything.... | 03:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | wrektjet, well you can start by asking your question here :) | 03:10 |
| phanindra | i lovefairuz:no i have mounted 2 drives, 1 is working properly, but the other is not | 03:10 |
| PyChild | wrektjet: support? what's your problem with it? | 03:10 |
| shiv | How do I fix this. I am trying to install vlc http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/43LLuNvA | 03:10 |
| ilovefairuz | !tab | phanindra | 03:10 |
| ubottu | phanindra: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 03:10 |
| econdudeawesome | If I set up a mount point as say /mount/<name>, and I want to be able to write to it, do I do sudo chown -R <username>:<username> /mount/<name>? I am getting an operation denied error | 03:10 |
| ilovefairuz | phanindra: both are from the same network ? | 03:10 |
| wrektjet | ZykoticK9: not really a major Q i just cant seem to set up the client so that using IRC would be practical.. for instance i cant get rid of the join and part messages nor have text with my name in it highlighted | 03:10 |
| coz_ | PyChild, apparenlty audacity is the one | 03:10 |
| Jordan_U | Mr_Sonoma: Well ideally you'd use line level (headphone) out to line level in, but in a pinch turning the headphone volume down and using a mic input works. | 03:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | shiv, just a guess/work around but you could try uninstalling vlc-nox first then try again. | 03:10 |
| phanindra | yeah | 03:11 |
| shiv | Its http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/UWfSLa5B | 03:11 |
| phanindra | i lovefairuz:yes | 03:11 |
| PyChild | Mr_Sonoma: I'll be using the headphone output | 03:11 |
| shiv | ZykoticK9, ok | 03:11 |
| pastaisgood | Is there a way to open all context menus on the left side of the cursor and switch the cursor to the left side too? I'm using a Tablet PC with Lucid and a GNOME desktop and this would make it a lot easier to use the stylus. | 03:11 |
| tpl2000 | None of these text editors will let me change the file | 03:11 |
| tpl2000 | Because it is read-only. | 03:11 |
| Jordan_U | PyChild: Mr_Sonoma has a good point that you should be sure not to overdrive the mic in, headphone out is actually too load for a true microphone (rather than line level) input. | 03:11 |
| Mr_Sonoma | Jordan_U, PyChild ok was just thinking that could be something missed easily | 03:11 |
| _jesse_ | tpl2000: what does ls -l /paht/to/file look like? | 03:11 |
| ZykoticK9 | wrektjet, empathy for IRC is NOT a good idea! the developers have said the IRC support is SO poor they're refusing to fix some pretty serious bugs. Perhaps try xchat. Good luck. | 03:12 |
| PyChild | Ohh I was totally forgetting about linein, it's the blu jack isn't it? | 03:12 |
| cypher-neo | I can also reccommend the xchat-gnome package wrektjet. | 03:12 |
| epinky | tpl2000: (easy solution) : sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list | 03:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | tpl2000, is the file actually "read-only"? use ls -l to see the permissions on the file and see if it's rwx for your user | 03:13 |
| DeM0nFiRe | So PartedMagic is just like a live OS for managing disk partitions? | 03:13 |
| thune3 | PyChild: if you are direct-injecting the phono output into the computer (without a preamp), make sure you run the recording through the effect->equalization select-curve riaa. [And mic may be a better input if you aren't using a pre-amp] | 03:13 |
| tpl2000 | This font is hard to read, Zyk--is that an L or a number one? | 03:13 |
| tpl2000 | And Epinky, I ran it. | 03:13 |
| wrektjet | ZykoticK9: looks that way lol i cant even scroll up to read anything it keeps going back down. i usually use xchat in fact. i was just trying out 10.04 and wanted something that connects with the desktop account | 03:13 |
| tpl2000 | And that removed the file. Lemme check what happens when I try again | 03:13 |
| phanindra | i tried to unmount it by deleting the line from/etc/fstab. | 03:14 |
| tpl2000 | (rm=remove, I assume) | 03:14 |
| shiv | ZykoticK9, that woked | 03:14 |
| ZykoticK9 | tpl2000, i wouldn't remove that file! it's an L by the way | 03:14 |
| ZykoticK9 | shiv, :) | 03:14 |
| shiv | ZykoticK9, thanks | 03:14 |
| tpl2000 | Well, it worked | 03:14 |
| tpl2000 | And it didn't have any information of any significance to it, so I don't see why not. | 03:14 |
| phanindra | but when i open that drive by giving the password the same problem erasing again | 03:14 |
| PyChild | thune3: a pre-amp isn't something like the device own volume control? | 03:15 |
| _jesse_ | tpl2000: that permission didn't look right, and it was an L | 03:15 |
| _jesse_ | tpl2000: but at least you got it working ;) | 03:15 |
| wrektjet | (back to xchat!) | 03:15 |
| tpl2000 | Now, let's see what happens when I try to install xchat... | 03:15 |
| tpl2000 | (Running this window from webchat.freenode.net) | 03:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | wrektjet, you can install xchat-indicator to integrate xchat with the mail icon on 10.04 | 03:16 |
| Sed | I have had no luck with reinstalling grub or even getting into recovery mode | 03:16 |
| tpl2000 | It's working just fine....Thanks all for your help. | 03:16 |
| Sed | I just have a black screen unless boot to Live | 03:16 |
| flomaster | I could use some help setting up my fstab I have a 1TB drive that is mounted, but it doesn't show up in places and I do not have admin privileges on it | 03:16 |
| tpl2000 | So, lesson of the story: Sudo rm removes files. | 03:16 |
| thune3 | PyChild: if it has a volume control, then it mostlikely has a pre-amp already. [so line in is the option you want, and no eq should be necessary] | 03:17 |
| shauno | tpl2000: rm removes. sudo just makes it much, much more merciless | 03:17 |
| cypher-neo | shauno: Merciless remove. lol | 03:17 |
| PyChild | thune3: true true | 03:17 |
| tpl2000 | What's the function of sudo, anyways? | 03:17 |
| tpl2000 | Specifically | 03:18 |
| ZykoticK9 | !sudo | tpl2000 | 03:18 |
| ubottu | tpl2000: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli ) . Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 03:18 |
| epinky | Merciless == rm -f | 03:18 |
| PyChild | tpl2000: Wow people actually ask about sudo! | 03:18 |
| tpl2000 | Haha | 03:18 |
| tpl2000 | I'm a newb. | 03:18 |
| cypher-neo | sudo allows a permitted user to execute a command as the superuser or another user, as specified in the sudoers file. The real and effective uid and gid are set to match those of the target user as specified in the passwd file (the group vector is also initialized when the target user is not root). By default, sudo requires that users authenticate themselves with a password (NOTE: by default this is the user's password, not the r | 03:18 |
| cypher-neo | oot password). Once a user has been authenticated, a timestamp is updated and the user may then use sudo without a password for a short period of time (5 | 03:18 |
| tpl2000 | What can I say? | 03:18 |
| cypher-neo | minutes unless overridden in sudoers). | 03:18 |
| PyChild | It means ubuntu is popoular with moogles | 03:18 |
| PyChild | relatively | 03:18 |
| wrektjet | ZykoticK9, cool ill try that | 03:18 |
| wyrm111 | everyone starts somewhere | 03:19 |
| epinky | PyChild: as python is with children | 03:19 |
| wyrm111 | most people go to google though :) | 03:19 |
| PyChild | oh I learend about gnome wave cleaner from this page, will definitively try it http://mysite.verizon.net/hal.bower/music.htm | 03:19 |
| Sed | can anyone else help with my black screen issue. I hit shift or esc and still no menu | 03:19 |
| tpl2000 | Ahhh, yes...Xchat, the closest I'll get to MIRC on Linux | 03:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | Sed, don't "hit" shift, hold it down as computer starts (if you are using Grub2) | 03:20 |
| PyChild | tpl2000: you could run mirc over wine | 03:20 |
| shauno | please don't | 03:20 |
| PyChild | but why? xchat's fine | 03:20 |
| shauno | every time you run mirc on ubuntu, I kill a kitten. | 03:20 |
| tpl2000 | Xchat is essentially the same thing, just a different color scheme | 03:20 |
| Sed | Zykotick9: I'm trying that now | 03:20 |
| PyChild | shauno: it depends, is it a cute kitteh? | 03:21 |
| wrektjet | ok lets see what happens now that i installed xchat-indicator | 03:21 |
| shauno | PyChild: not any more. | 03:21 |
| tpl2000 | And running it through wine would be pointless hassle | 03:21 |

| === leo_dragao is now known as shyriu | ||
| cypher-neo | I can't see any purpose in installing a Windows program on Wine, that Linux can already do natively and far more efficiently. | 03:22 |
| Mr_Sonoma | tpl2000, scripting is a little diff in xchat than in mirc | 03:22 |
| DeM0nFiRe | 1GB is not much room for putting utility stuff on >.> | 03:22 |
| shauno | imho (veering OT momentarily), wine should be a last resort. there's 1001 irc clients for linux, and you'll encourage the development of none of them that way | 03:22 |
| shyriu | e aew | 03:22 |
| shyriu | alguem do brasil | 03:22 |
| shyriu | ? | 03:22 |
| PyChild | aogo: 10:20 Gensokyou time | 03:22 |
| tpl2000 | Scripting is honestly something I don't fiddle with | 03:22 |
| epinky | !br | shyriu | 03:22 |

| Sed | Zykotick9: I now just have the word GRUB and a flashing cursor | 03:23 |
| cypher-neo | shauno, speaking of Wine. When I installed and later uninstalled a program on Wine, the program menu entry didn't disappear. I've had this happen several times. Why doesn't the Wine menu update like every other menu on Linux? | 03:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | !now | aogo | 03:23 |
| pastaisgood | Does anybody know a way of making all context menus or just right click menus appear on the left side of the cursor instead of the right? I'm using gnome. | 03:23 |
| trism | aogo: /msg ubottu @now | 03:23 |
| Mr_Sonoma | tpl2000, i actually kinda like weechat but that's a cli prog | 03:23 |
| flomaster | I could use some help setting up my fstab I have a 1TB drive that is mounted, but it doesn't show up in places and I do not have admin privileges on it | 03:24 |
| tpl2000 | (I'm unsure of the meaning of cli.) | 03:24 |
| xangua | cypher-neo: because you don't use the wine utility to uninstall apps | 03:24 |
| ZykoticK9 | tpl2000, cli = command line interface (text) | 03:24 |
| tpl2000 | Gotcha | 03:24 |

| tpl2000 | I actually tried running it from Empathy, too...But that didn't want to work. | 03:24 |
| Mr_Sonoma | tpl2000, sorry forgot you were a n00b LOL | 03:24 |
| tpl2000 | Haha | 03:24 |
| TSims | I have a support question | 03:24 |
| tpl2000 | 'tis cool. | 03:25 |
| shauno | cypher-neo: I believe other menu entries are .desktop files installed by (and removed by) packages, just like any other component of the package. wine creates them, so the file doesn't belong to a package manifest, and doesn't belong to the application's installer/uninstaller. so it's quickly orphaned | 03:25 |
| tpl2000 | Alright, question number two! | 03:25 |
| flomaster | any FSTAB GURU's up in ehre? | 03:25 |
| xangua | cypher-neo: apps>wine>uninstall wine software | 03:25 |
| phanindra | i have mounted windows drives into ubuntu. but when i click on the folder that i have mounted, the desktop is getting inactive. can any one help me? | 03:25 |
| a | catalyst 2900 xl switch nvram erase: now switch: mode active how to recovery help me | 03:25 |
| cypher-neo | xangua, that's what i use! And the menu entry stays anyway. | 03:25 |
| tpl2000 | I'm going to be running World of Warcraft from WINE. Can I use the windows installation on my windows partition from linux? | 03:25 |
| tpl2000 | Or do I have to do a separate install? | 03:25 |
| TSims | My computer only responds to mouse clicks in a window if im holding ctrl or shift, otherwise it just thinks I'm trying to move the window. Anyone know how I might fix this probem? | 03:25 |
| Sed | so oes GRUB and a flashing cursor mean I am hosed? | 03:25 |
| wyrm111 | flomaster -> did you bring it over from another operatring system? | 03:25 |
| wrektjet | i was prob supposed to insatll xchat-gnome-indicator | 03:25 |
| aogo | zykotick9 Spain sorry | 03:25 |
| ZykoticK9 | cypher-neo, just use System / Preference / Main Menu to remove any unwanted menu entries | 03:26 |
| ZykoticK9 | aogo, i have no idea. | 03:26 |

| tpl2000 | I have direct rendering, so according to this file on Wowwiki, I should be okay. | 03:26 |
| cypher-neo | ZykoticK9: Thanks. I've been doing that. I was just worried that I was installing or uninstalling the Wine program wrong since the entry didn't go away. Glad to know it's not me. :) | 03:26 |
| flomaster | wyggler2, its NTFS Formatted and I am pretty sure I have the wrong FSTAB entry for it, but it mounted and I can read from it, but I can't write or delete from it | 03:27 |

| ZykoticK9 | tpl2000, you can use your windows install of wine. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft for more details. | 03:27 |
| aogo | see.. | 03:27 |
| ZykoticK9 | epinky, Gambino actually it would be "sudo make install" for the last command ;) | 03:28 |

| flomaster | wyggler2, would that keep the drive from being seen in "Places" | 03:28 |
| epinky | ZykoticK9: one never knows what Linux is actually running (tar.gz in Ubuntu?) hmmmm | 03:28 |
| flomaster | wyggler2, here is my entry for it in Fstab /dev/sdb1 /mnt/1tb ntfs ro,user,auto 0 0 | 03:29 |
| wyrm111 | demonfire -> about 698MB | 03:29 |
| aogo | : /pm | 03:29 |
| ZykoticK9 | epinky, good point ;) | 03:29 |
| Mr_Sonoma | DeM0nFiRe, the guide says a disk with atleast 2 gig of free space i believe. | 03:29 |
| shauno | TSims: pretty low-tech answer .. give your alt keys a knock to see if either of them are stuck | 03:29 |
| tpl2000 | Okay, very weird....When I ran WoW from WINE, it disabled my second monitor <.< | 03:29 |
| TSims | I've tried that, it still seems to be doing it | 03:29 |
| Sed | hello? | 03:29 |
| ZykoticK9 | tpl2000, that's probably a good thing. | 03:29 |
| [thor] | aogo: "/msg <user> <message goes here>" | 03:29 |
| tpl2000 | It's also not actually showing anything on the screen from the game | 03:29 |
| ZykoticK9 | tpl2000, see the Ubuntu Documents link i sent you for tips. | 03:30 |
| tpl2000 | Not only that, but it changed my screen resolution... | 03:30 |
| tpl2000 | Xchat isn't telling me about any pm's | 03:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | tpl2000, do you have the bar on the left? | 03:31 |
| tpl2000 | Yeah | 03:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | tpl2000, your PMs should show there | 03:31 |
| Mr_Sonoma | tpl2000, look on the left at the server tree, you should see a query window with the nick of the person/bot that sent the pm | 03:31 |
| thune3 | DeM0nFiRe: a "live" usb still uses the same squashfs filesystem as the livecd, so it is about the same size (excluding persistence). For a full install the 2GB sugggestion seems like a fair minimum. | 03:31 |
| mcurran | Can someone with good bash/scripting knowledge help me with my desktop icons? | 03:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | DeM0nFiRe, if you are trying to install Ubuntu a typical desktop is closer to 4GB of space | 03:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | mcurran, lol what does bash/scripting have to do with your desktop icons (a totally different thing)? | 03:33 |
| DeM0nFiRe | ZykoticK9: Nah, for a full install I have chosen Xubuntu. I am interested now in creating a utility stick | 03:33 |
| TSims | My computer only responds to mouse clicks in a window if im holding ctrl or shift, otherwise it just thinks I'm trying to move the window. Anyone know how I might fix this probem? There is nothing wrong with my alt key. | 03:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | DeM0nFiRe, ahh ok, good luck man. I haven't played with Xubuntu much. | 03:33 |
| mcurran | I don't know, I'm just trying to add a pause/break in the .directory file so that my icons are loaded after the panels, but can't figure it out | 03:33 |
| Mr_Sonoma | xfce was nice on my dapper install...havent used it since | 03:34 |
| DeM0nFiRe | I've used Xubuntu before. It was OK, but Xfce is really finicky haha | 03:34 |
| mcurran | Is LXDE any better? | 03:34 |
| tpl2000 | Alright, my second monitor is an analog -.-; Now I have to either reboot or spawn an AMD window to get it to recognize again... | 03:34 |
| mcurran | Can you run compiz on LXDE or XFCE? | 03:34 |

| ZykoticK9 | mcurran, i HIGHLY doubt that you'll be able to configure that on a per-icon basis! You'd probably have to change Gnome's startup to manage that. Good luck man. | 03:34 |
| Mr_Sonoma | DeM0nFiRe, could always buck up and go CLI only ;) | 03:34 |
| shauno | DeM0nFiRe: you may find this a useful read .. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization | 03:34 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Haha na Mr_Sonoma no good. I am planning on using it for corss platform development of a game engine ;) | 03:35 |
| mcurran | I don't want it on per icon, just loading at startup all desktop icons after panels | 03:35 |
| Mr_Sonoma | DeM0nFiRe, dont say i didnt try to help :D | 03:35 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Heh shauno for the utility stick I have only 1Gb lol | 03:35 |
| mcurran | I'm using KDE3 though, so I can't find anything online. | 03:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | mcurran, in that case you might want to try asking in #kubuntu instead. | 03:36 |
| mcurran | I found nothing in .kde3/Autostart or anything in /root/ which is my $HOME. I'm running BT4 | 03:36 |
| TSims | My computer only responds to mouse clicks in a window if im holding ctrl or shift, otherwise it just thinks I'm trying to move the window. Anyone know how I might fix this probem? | 03:36 |
| shauno | DeM0nFiRe: I believe the 3-5Gb they ask for is for the process of building the image. not the size the final result will take. everyone else manages to fit a livecd in 750Mb :) | 03:36 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Oh, ok | 03:37 |
| mcurran | I did, noone helps over there, I don't think anyone isn't idle | 03:37 |

| ubottu | mcurran, please see my private message | 03:37 |
| tpl2000 | Be back in a bit. Going to reboot to make Ubuntu find my second monitor again, and readjust the resolution on my main | 03:37 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Oh I need that space on a Ubuntu installation though, I guess I could use my External HDD for that | 03:37 |
| ZykoticK9 | tpl2000, "sudo service gdm restart" | 03:38 |
| flomaster | if I type this sudo vi /etc/fstab and make changes how can I save and close the file? | 03:38 |

| ZykoticK9 | flomaster, vi is very powerful, but if you're looking for an easier editor check out nano | 03:40 |
| Gambino | Where did I go wrong on this? | 03:40 |
| Gambino | http://pastebin.com/47cB6TnJ | 03:40 |
| Mr_Sonoma | tpl2...........he's gone | 03:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | Gambino, permission as i said "sudo make install" | 03:40 |
| racerd | anyone install xp or win7 while running ubuntu? | 03:41 |
| racerd | or run in a vm? | 03:41 |
| Gambino | zyko, So do I start over? | 03:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, i run both in VBox | 03:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | Gambino, no just type "sudo make install" instead - the other stuff doesn't need sudo | 03:41 |
| racerd | sweet | 03:41 |
| racerd | what do you use to do this? | 03:42 |
| flomaster | ZykoticK9, thanks nano worked where as vi didn't :) | 03:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, VirtualBox | 03:42 |
| tpl2000 | Alrighty then, back. | 03:42 |
| bastidrazor | checkinstall replaces make install now.. it makes removing the application much easier | 03:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, if you have a new CPU it support Virtualization CPU extensions! | 03:42 |
| Mr_Sonoma | tpl2000, did you reboot or just restart gdm? | 03:42 |
| Gambino | How do I know if installation was successful? And thank you for the help btw. | 03:42 |
| tpl2000 | Reboot. | 03:42 |
| racerd | can i mount the .iso image? | 03:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | Gambino, try running the program | 03:43 |
| tpl2000 | Everything's back to normal. | 03:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | !iso | racerd | 03:43 |
| ubottu | racerd: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 03:43 |
| flomaster | damn permissions on the mounted drive are still messed up:( | 03:43 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Ok guys I am going to make my Xubuntu USB install haha | 03:43 |
| DeM0nFiRe | I will be back in a bit if I don't break my computer :D | 03:43 |
| tpl2000 | Why, Mr_Sonoma? | 03:43 |
| flomaster | I want to mount my hard drive to have full read write access for my user any help on this ? | 03:43 |
| Mr_Sonoma | tpl2000, tip, very few things require a reboot in linux. kernel upgrades and adding hardware are about the list. you can restart your graphical desktop (xserver) from terminal by running sudo service gdm restart | 03:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | flomaster, what filesystem are you using? | 03:44 |
| flomaster | the drive is ntfs | 03:44 |
| tpl2000 | Alright. I took the windows approach. | 03:44 |
| Mr_Sonoma | tpl2000, just so your know | 03:44 |
| ZykoticK9 | flomaster, ahhh sorry i can't help with that. good luck. | 03:44 |

| Solaris444 | from the command line that is | 03:44 |
| flomaster | ZykoticK9, I am trying to mount via UUID.. I had it working but had to re-install Ubuntu and can't remember how I had it set up exactly | 03:45 |
| falseteeth | what is the best irc client for ubuntu | 03:45 |
| tpl2000 | Sudo service gdm restart, sudo service gdm restart, sudo service gdm restart *repeats it a few times out loud* | 03:45 |
| falseteeth | latest version | 03:45 |

| flomaster | falseteeth, I like Xchat | 03:45 |
| evon | solaris444 ctrl alt bckspc ;-) | 03:45 |
| w1n5ton | hello | 03:45 |
| ZykoticK9 | flomaster, sorry I can't/won't help with NTFS. Good luck. | 03:45 |
| josh | hi | 03:45 |
| falseteeth | i think i'm using xchat right now | 03:45 |
| falseteeth | i'm looking for one with configurable proxy settings though | 03:45 |
| Solaris444 | from the command line evon | 03:45 |
| falseteeth | and i can't find any here | 03:45 |
| Gambino | falseteeth, I am using xchat, but am trying new clients. | 03:45 |
| Solaris444 | I'm running ubuntu server | 03:45 |
| ZykoticK9 | Solaris444, "sudo service samba restart" perhaps | 03:45 |
| evon | solaris444 I know. it was meant to be a joke. hence the ;-) | 03:45 |
| falseteeth | i'm just looking for one that lets me edit proxy/network settings | 03:45 |
| evon | solaris444 ;-) | 03:45 |
| falseteeth | do you know of one that does that? | 03:45 |
| falseteeth | (i'm used to mirc on windows) | 03:45 |
| Gambino | I don't think my tar.gz installed :S | 03:46 |
| shiv | i don't see any grub menu I have only ubuntu installed no other os. Is this normal? | 03:46 |
| Gambino | falseteeth, Me too :( You can get WINE + mIRC, but it will be buggy. | 03:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | shiv, yes | 03:46 |
| Mr_Sonoma | shiv, yes my desktop is exactly the same way | 03:46 |
| falseteeth | yeah i'd prefer a linux-native one | 03:46 |
| falseteeth | surely there's one with numerous config options? | 03:46 |
| Steve973 | I am mounting an ext4 volume automatically on boot. I want (at least some) users to be able to write to that volume (like it's a shared drive) but I'm not sure of what options to use in fstab to get this to work. any suggestions, please? | 03:47 |
| evon | solaris444 sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart | 03:47 |
| Gambino | falseteeth, I am still looking, but most of them look pretty basic. | 03:47 |
| Solaris444 | ah ok evon sorry | 03:47 |
| shiv | ZykoticK9, Mr_Sonoma How do I see it then. I want to see various kernels and choice to go to recovery mode on boot? | 03:47 |
| w1n5ton | what would be the best way to encrypt my entire file system? | 03:47 |
| Solaris444 | ZykoticK9: Nope, unrecognised service samba | 03:47 |
| evon | solaris444 no worries. found that code on the net. hope it works for you | 03:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | Solaris444, try smb | 03:47 |
| falseteeth | lol that's really fucking weird | 03:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | shiv, hold shift down while booting to get menu | 03:48 |
| falseteeth | you can't think of any that just let you change network settings? | 03:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | !language | falseteeth | 03:48 |
| ubottu | falseteeth: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 03:48 |
| Mr_Sonoma | Solaris444, i think its sudo service smb restart | 03:48 |
| falseteeth | i'm new to linux/ubuntu but to me it seems like that'd be the easiest thing to find | 03:48 |
| shiv | ZykoticK9, thanks will do | 03:48 |
| Solaris444 | evon: 10.04 doesn't use init scripts any more | 03:48 |
| Solaris444 | it was the first thing i tried. | 03:48 |
| Solaris444 | OK guys, I'll try both of those | 03:48 |
| evon | solaris444 sorry didn't know. still using 9.10 | 03:49 |

| ZykoticK9 | !details | tensorpudding | 03:58 |

| racerd | zykotick9 | hey so i can use this command to mount drives on the network and such? | 03:58 |
| tensorpudding | I press the install button, and it sits there for a few seconds, but dodesn't install anything, no warnings or errors. | 03:58 |
| tensorpudding | After a few seconds the button for Install pops back up | 03:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, you'd need to be more specific... what? | 03:58 |
| blendmaster1024_ | solid_liq, it shouldn't be. I deleted my ~/Music directory and I've never touched the default. | 03:58 |
| ouyes | blendmaster1024_, ZykoticK9 I will keep the latest one | 03:58 |
| tensorpudding | Installing via aptitude works fine as usual. | 03:58 |
| solid_liq | blendmaster1024_, try killing it and restarting it... you may have found a bug | 03:59 |
| racerd | zykotick9 | if i have a media port on my router and i am trying to connect a drive to it and have access to it from my linux box | 03:59 |
| blendmaster1024_ | >8( sudo killall -9 rhythmbox; #if I did, it's not a new bug, it's done this to me for years and years and years, now that I have an ipod is the first time i've ever used it | 03:59 |
| Solaris444 | ZykoticK9: It was smbd | 03:59 |
| Solaris444 | service smbd | 04:00 |
| Solaris444 | for future reference | 04:00 |
| racerd | zykotick9 | i had trouble mounting it so i just plugged it into my laptop, i would like to run videos off my xbox using it | 04:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, you can mount things using the "mount" command from terminal of course. You don't need the loop stuff though. | 04:00 |
| racerd | what does the loop do? | 04:00 |
| bastidrazor | !iso | 04:00 |
| ubottu | To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 04:00 |
| Mr_Sonoma | lol Solaris444 i was at the wrong computer to check for you | 04:00 |
| ZykoticK9 | Solaris444, thanks. Sorry for misleading ya. | 04:00 |
| Mr_Sonoma | ZykoticK9, we were close though | 04:00 |
| tpl2000 | Virtual poker is not nearly as interesting to me as real poker, hehe | 04:01 |

| Mr_Sonoma | ZykoticK9, dont forget atom bombs | 04:02 |
| tpl2000 | Alright then, what do I use on Ubuntu to download torrents? | 04:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | Mr_Sonoma, that too i suppose. | 04:02 |
| lofiinternet | rtorrent | 04:02 |
| tensorpudding | tpl2000: transmission is nice | 04:02 |
| samwho | tpl2000 I use Transmission personally :) | 04:02 |
| bastidrazor | tpl2000: transmission is installed by default | 04:02 |
| racerd | zykotick9 | so you can only run these in virtual machine? or can you boot them indepenantly | 04:02 |
| blendmaster1024_ | tpl2000, don't forget, only download legal torrents :) | 04:02 |
| Mr_Sonoma | tpl2000, i used to use ktorrent when i ran KDE all the time. that's a nice one | 04:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, sorry run what? | 04:03 |
| racerd | windows installation | 04:03 |
| racerd | or can you boot them? | 04:03 |
| tpl2000 | Recent studies have found that 0.3% of all torrents are definitely legal. | 04:03 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, oh with VBox only inside Ubuntu. But you could dual boot Windows/Ubuntu full installs if you wanted. | 04:03 |
| blendmaster1024_ | tpl2000, most of which are linux :) | 04:03 |
| cypher-neo | tpl2000, recent studies also discovered that 192.65% of statistics are made up on the spot. | 04:04 |
| tpl2000 | I can actually cite Slashdot on this one, Cypher | 04:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | cyphase, tpl2000 was on slashdot the other day i believe | 04:04 |
| lofiinternet | when I try to use iwconfig to set the essid (say with "sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid "JP") it makes the essid a random junk string | 04:04 |
| racerd | zykotick9 is there a post on how to install windows after installing ubuntu first? | 04:04 |
| cypher-neo | tpl2000, lol. I was kidding. | 04:04 |
| lofiinternet | with escaped hex sequences and ascii letters | 04:04 |
| tpl2000 | =p | 04:04 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, you'd just have to reinstall Grub after | 04:04 |
| cyphase | ZykoticK9: is that right? :) | 04:04 |
| tpl2000 | Pretty sure yours was a t-shirt once upon a time, was it not? | 04:04 |
| ssbpls | what is GTK ? | 04:05 |
| thune3 | mcurran: i was playing around with your nautilus desktop problem, i think i have something you could try | 04:05 |
| cypher-neo | tpl2000: Don't know. I heard that somewhere and never forgot it. =p | 04:05 |
| blendmaster1024_ | !offtopic | me, tpl2000 and cypher-neo | 04:05 |
| ubottu | me, tpl2000 and cypher-neo: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 04:05 |
| Gambino | http://pastebin.com/dke4FgBJ Still need help with installation on this, if anyone is kind enough. | 04:05 |
| Mr_Sonoma | !gtk | ssbpls | 04:05 |
| ubottu | ssbpls: GTK is the !GIMP toolkit, which forms the base of !GNOME and is used by many applications to provide a !GUI | 04:05 |
| lofiinternet | my search foo is too weak to figure it out, has anyone encountered this before? | 04:05 |
| tpl2000 | Back on topic then, how do I create a torrent from a URL? Using Transmission, that is. | 04:06 |
| racerd | zykotick9, wouldn't the windows install wipe my linux install? | 04:06 |
| racerd | or do i have to install it on a seperate drive? | 04:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, you'd need to use separate partitions | 04:06 |
| ssbpls | ubottu: why do you add ! to some words? | 04:06 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 04:06 |
| tpl2000 | Ssbpls, Ubottu is a bot, not a person | 04:06 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, partitioning a drive breaks a single drive into smaller pieces. | 04:07 |
| bastidrazor | ssbpls: it is a bot and ! initiates the bot with certain trigger words | 04:07 |
| tpl2000 | (Anyone know on the topic of torrents?) | 04:07 |
| Mr_Sonoma | tpl2000, you download the .torrent file, and open it with the torrent client to download the actual file. say you want ubuntu-i386.iso, you'd download ubuntu-i386.iso.torrent and use that to get the .iso file from people sharing the file through torrent clients | 04:07 |
| samwho | !gnome | 04:07 |
| ubottu | GNOME is the default !desktop environment on Ubuntu. To install it from Kubuntu or Xubuntu, type « sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » in a !terminal. | 04:07 |
| samwho | Dude, sweet. | 04:07 |
| tpl2000 | Not quite what I meant | 04:08 |
| tpl2000 | I'm trying to download a torrent from a url | 04:08 |
| bastidrazor | tpl2000: you need a .torrent file to tell the torrent application what/where to get stuff. | 04:08 |
| ZykoticK9 | tpl2000, download the torrent with your web browser, then open or double click the torrent file after download and hopefully it will open with Transmission | 04:09 |
| racerd | zykotick9 | i know about partioning drives just new to this VM stuff and dual booting | 04:09 |
| Mr_Sonoma | tpl2000, you download the .torrent file from the url. then open it with your torrent client. | 04:09 |
| marenostrum | Hello dear friends; do you know something about a problem related with Ubuntu servers which affects Synaptic? | 04:09 |
| wrektjet | tpl2000, what client u using | 04:09 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, think of VMs as OS that run INSIDE other OSs | 04:09 |
| tpl2000 | Transmission. | 04:09 |
| racerd | zykotick9 | i know exactly what they are, just have never ran one before | 04:09 |
| ssbpls | and waht is QT? | 04:10 |
| racerd | zykotick9 | i greatly appreciate the help though | 04:10 |
| samwho | !qt | 04:10 |
| ejv | its what i call my gf | 04:10 |
| ubottu | Qt is the Qt (pronounced "cute") toolkit, which forms the base of KDE and is used by many applications to provide a !GUI. Install the libqt3-mt-dev package to compile Qt 3 applications or libqt4-dev for Qt 4 applications. Qt 4.4 is available from hardy-backports | 04:10 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, glad to help :) | 04:10 |
| Mr_Sonoma | !qt | ssbpls | 04:10 |
| ubottu | ssbpls: please see above | 04:10 |
| ejv | i prefer "cutey" | 04:11 |
| samwho | ejv: Yeah, me too. | 04:11 |
| racerd | zykotick9 | so if i have a secondary drive i can install windows on that one, and it will overwrite my boot settings | 04:11 |
| ssbpls | OK | 04:11 |
| racerd | zykotick9 | then i can reinstall grub and boot both? | 04:11 |
| === travis is now known as Guest54839 | ||
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, it will overright the boot settings! just reinstall grub after | 04:11 |
| shiv | !grub | 04:11 |
| ubottu | 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. | 04:11 |
| wrektjet | tpl2000, so file>add url whats the issue | 04:11 |
| pionar | I want to remove nano (replacing it with a new from-source version) from my Jaunty system, but apt won't let me remove it without removing the ubuntu-standard package too, what can i do | 04:12 |
| xangua | pionar: if you refer to ubuntu-desktop, that's just a metapackage | 04:12 |
| marenostrum | Can you all, or at least one of you, refresh Synaptic as it should be at the moment? | 04:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | pionar, are and safely remove ubuntu-desktop (it's a meta package), but you'd need to reinstall it if you update to newer version of ubuntu | 04:12 |
| ejv | what's so great about the new nano sources pionar ? | 04:13 |
| pionar | it's not ubuntu-desktop, it's ubuntu standard | 04:13 |
| tpl2000 | Tried that, apparently it's just a bad url though | 04:13 |
| Mr_Sonoma | pionar, build nano from source into a deb package and then install the deb? that should simply "upgrade" nano if i'm not mistaken. | 04:13 |
| racerd | zykotick9 | so you run both winxp and win7 this way? for what purpose? | 04:13 |
| Omen_20 | Why is it that my Lexmark 510 official drivers install, but then it still doesnt let me print with it? Doesnt list it as an option. | 04:13 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, testing only | 04:13 |
| wrektjet | tpl2000, transmission is pretty weak in my opinon. i use deluge | 04:13 |
| Finnish | Last time I tried "Lord of the rings"-DVD was not working in ubuntu, are there any restrictions with it? | 04:14 |
| racerd | zykotick9 | you think i can run games and apps in it lol | 04:14 |
| Guest54839 | is there any way to use the printer Lexmark X2300 in ubuntu 10.04? | 04:14 |
| tpl2000 | Either way, it's a bad URL. | 04:14 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, not games no - VERY limited 3d support | 04:14 |
| pionar | ejv, the biggest thing i need is mac file type conversion | 04:14 |
| Omen_20 | Says the driver is activated and in use, but then when it goes to the next step it still tells me to pick a driver. I dont see the 510 listed anywhere. | 04:14 |
| pionar | thanks, Mr_Sonoma, I'll try that | 04:14 |
| Mr_Sonoma | !dvd have you looked at this? | Finnish | 04:15 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 04:15 |
| racerd | zykotick9 | is directx 10 supported in winxp or can be added? | 04:15 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, lol i have no idea - ask in ##windows | 04:15 |

| natex | Guest54839: it does not work | 04:18 |

| ZykoticK9 | racerd, not sure - try #vbox | 04:18 |
| Mr_Sonoma | !ask | RealEyes | 04:18 |
| ubottu | RealEyes: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 04:18 |
| racerd | zykotick9 | i just use a mac keyboard and it doesn't have a right ctrl lol | 04:18 |
| natex | Guest54839: you can see for yourself at http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/openprinting/database/databaseintro | 04:19 |
| RealEyes | Mr_Sonoma: I just got done DLing some MP3s and now RythymBox doesnt want to play them. | 04:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | racerd, ahh yes - sorry i got to idea. good luck | 04:19 |
| RealEyes | Says there is an error importing them. | 04:19 |
| natex | Guest54839: a quick google gets you that. | 04:19 |
| Guest54839 | and just one more thing, is flash supposed to be real laggy on ubuntu? | 04:19 |
| RealEyes | I changed the permissions to an executable file, but it didnt help, what do I do? | 04:19 |
| Guest54839 | ok i didnt know, im sorry if i caused any trouble | 04:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | RealEyes, have you installed ubuntu-restricted-extras? MP3s should NOT be executable! | 04:19 |
| natex | Guest54839: it's not laggy for me. | 04:20 |
| Guest54839 | ok i guess its my computer then | 04:20 |
| racerd | found it.... actually really simple to do | 04:20 |
| natex | Guest54839: possibly, flash is spotty on linux | 04:20 |
| RealEyes | so ... sudo apt-get install restricted-extras ?? | 04:20 |
| ZykoticK9 | Guest54839, flash is NOT as good on linux as it is on Mac/Windows/Solaris (even) | 04:20 |
| Guest54839 | i hope they come out with 64 bit flash soon, as i have a 64 bit processor | 04:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | RealEyes, that's one method sure ;) | 04:21 |
| ^peanut^ | Guest54839: yeah, Adobe isn't getting with the program fast enough. | 04:21 |
| un214 | I've got 64 bit flash | 04:21 |
| un214 | I'll give you a copy if you can figure out how to install it | 04:21 |
| natex | Guest54839: with most distros (Ubuntu) you can use flash on 64 bit just fine | 04:21 |
| Guest54839 | ok | 04:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | Guest54839, they just stopped development of 64bit flash :( | 04:21 |

| J3ckyl | Guest54839, you will need ffmpeg with it | 04:44 |
| tensorpudding | bash can't tell if that is a filename with spaces or three different files | 04:44 |
| natex | ritztech: no I was using VARIABLE as an example. You can use anything. | 04:44 |
| tensorpudding | one of which is named 01, the other Starting, and the last Over.mp3 | 04:45 |
| ZykoticK9 | RealEyes, /home/realeyes/Desktop/01\ Starting\ Over.mp3 | 04:45 |
| Guest54839 | ill try both to see which is better, in qaulity | 04:45 |
| josephschwenker | I am having a problem. I ran a command to mount an iso image, but mounted it in /media. Now, I cannot mount anything. I tried using chmod +w and sudo rm -r, but bash complains about it being a read-only filesystem. Can anyone help? | 04:45 |
| Solita | hola | 04:45 |
| tensorpudding | The \'s are required to make it unambiguous | 04:45 |
| RealEyes | /home/realeyes/Desktop/01 Starting Over.mp3: data | 04:45 |
| dustin | demonfire: well poke around to see about that,cuz with out it, i couldnt do much of any of the cool things with ubuntu.9.10 or 9..04 | 04:45 |
| natex | josephschwenker: umount | 04:45 |
| josephschwenker | How do I unmount? | 04:45 |
| ZykoticK9 | RealEyes, data = NOT AN MP3 | 04:45 |
| natex | josephschwenker: man umount | 04:45 |
| RealEyes | Did I just DL a virus? | 04:45 |
| tensorpudding | file probably doesn't know how to grok mp3's, maybe | 04:45 |
| RealEyes | <.<; | 04:45 |
| josephschwenker | There is no physical disc. | 04:45 |
| J3ckyl | What format do you want to convert to? | 04:45 |
| RealEyes | I should delete all this, huh? | 04:45 |
| J3ckyl | Guest54839, what format do you want to convert to? | 04:46 |
| josephschwenker | I'll try using it. | 04:46 |
| samwho | I'm curious | 04:46 |
| samwho | !virus | 04:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | tensorpudding, file does know MP3s | 04:46 |
| ubottu | Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 04:46 |
| samwho | Hehe, good times. | 04:46 |
| === bastidrazor is now known as bastid_raZor | ||
| Guest54839 | josephschwenker, i usually left click and there should be Unmount option | 04:46 |
| tensorpudding | It could be a non-mp3 masquerading as one | 04:46 |
| RealEyes | ZykoticK9: What should I do? Convert it? Should I just delete it? | 04:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | RealEyes, ? up to you | 04:46 |
| josephschwenker | I used this command: sudo mount /home/joseph/BIONICLE.iso -o loop /media/ | 04:46 |
| Guest54839 | J3ckyl, probably avi | 04:46 |
| RealEyes | how does one convert it? | 04:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | josephschwenker, "sudo umount /media" | 04:47 |
| natex | josephschwenker: seriously open a terminal and type man umount | 04:47 |
| tensorpudding | It would be hard to convert if it is not an mp3 | 04:47 |
| josephschwenker | I did. | 04:47 |
| josephschwenker | I can't make much sense of the instructions. | 04:47 |
| dustin | demonfire: so i see not much differnce ,and i remember early about someone doing the same and it worked | 04:47 |
| natex | josephschwenker: umount is a crucial skill to have :_ | 04:47 |
| josephschwenker | I'll try what you said. | 04:47 |
| Evolution-X | how can i remove a folder that have root and i cannot modify permissions | 04:47 |
| Evolution-X | is at home folder | 04:47 |
| RealEyes | How is it not an mp3? Its listed as that... | 04:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | Evolution-X, sudo | 04:47 |
| josephschwenker | To remove a root folder: | 04:47 |
| DeM0nFiRe | dustin what are you even talking about? You see "not much difference" for what? I haven't done anything yet | 04:47 |
| RealEyes | How can I make Ubuntu see that it is an mp3? | 04:48 |
| wrektjet | can you have two partitions/drives share one mount point such as /media? | 04:48 |
| ritztech | it checks the Foudndry swith at LOS1111 ... but if site LOS1112 doesnt have an ip address im trying to basically have 2 different varialbes | 04:48 |
| natex | josephschwenker: hint umount /media | 04:48 |
| Evolution-X | no the folder permission is root | 04:48 |
| josephschwenker | run sudo chown -R (your username: your group) /home/folder/ | 04:48 |
| Evolution-X | cannot be modified | 04:48 |
| tucemiux | josephschwenker, if you want step by step help with the instructions just go on ahead and ask, all on one line | 04:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | RealEyes, file says it's NOT an MP3 | 04:48 |
| josephschwenker | yes, I know! | 04:48 |
| ritztech | unless varible isnt the right word | 04:48 |
| Mr_Sonoma | RealEyes, the easiest way to convert a audio/video file is to use winff (graphical front end for ffmpeg) | 04:48 |
| josephschwenker | You already told me that command | 04:48 |
| RealEyes | nvm | 04:48 |
| tensorpudding | RealEyes: if you can play it in an mp3 player or audio app, you know that it's a music file | 04:48 |
| ritztech | i know with TCL its argv0 and thats easy to find | 04:48 |
| natex | josephschwenker: what's the problem then? | 04:48 |
| Evolution-X | how i know mi group ? | 04:48 |
| piyrw | Anyone know how to fix fonts in firefox? Since a recent update some pages look really bad/jagged, and others blurry. This is how twitter search looks: http://imagebin.ca/img/MXG4FNl.png | 04:48 |
| josephschwenker | Your group is usually your username. | 04:49 |
| Evolution-X | ok let me try | 04:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | tensorpudding, RealEyes couldn't play the file! | 04:49 |
| josephschwenker | for instance: sudo chown -R joseph:joseph /opt/PenumbraOverture/ | 04:49 |
| abhijit | I use mobile media convertor (mmc) to convert multimedia files. it is very good software. | 04:49 |
| tucemiux | Evolution-X, you can view your group membership in the users and group applet | 04:49 |
| josephschwenker | [sudo] password for joseph: | 04:49 |
| josephschwenker | umount: /media: device is busy. | 04:49 |
| samwho | piyrw: Ouch, ugly. It'll have something to do with "anti-aliasing". Can't help more than that but it's a good Google start if all else fails :) | 04:49 |
| josephschwenker | (In some cases useful info about processes that use | 04:49 |
| josephschwenker | the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1)) | 04:49 |
| josephschwenker | joseph@joseph:/media$ | 04:49 |
| FloodBot1 | josephschwenker: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:49 |
| tensorpudding | Maybe the file was not copied correctly | 04:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | josephschwenker, did you cd into the directory? common mistake. | 04:49 |
| josephschwenker | I did, I think | 04:50 |
| josephschwenker | I mounted it into media | 04:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | josephschwenker, cd / then try unmounting again | 04:50 |
| Evolution-X | this goes so fast i cant get to read to type in terminal | 04:50 |
| samwho | Evolution-X: Copy paste? :p | 04:50 |
| wrektjet | i edited fstab and i placed the directory for 2 hdd's in /media. is that a conflict | 04:51 |
| josephschwenker | I tried that, but it didn't do anything. | 04:51 |
| Evolution-X | i cant because the command has involve my name and is not a the end | 04:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | Evolution-X, in a terminal type "groups" will show what groups you are a member of | 04:51 |
| Evolution-X | ok | 04:51 |
| bastid_raZor | Evolution-X: type groups :that will tell you which groups your user is in. | 04:51 |

| Evolution-X | i got that | 04:52 |
| Evolution-X | now | 04:52 |

| josephschwenker | "mount2: invalid argument" | 04:52 |
| Evolution-X | put the command with that name so i can copy | 04:52 |
| josephschwenker | "mount: /media: not mounted" | 04:52 |
| Guest54839 | piyrw , or try swiftfox, | 04:52 |
| piyrw | yeah chrome looks ok, but there are some addins I use for ff that chrome doesnt have. | 04:52 |
| samwho | piyrw: Ahh fair enough :) | 04:53 |

| ZykoticK9 | Gimped, there are lots of OPs left in this channel ;) | 05:25 |
| uRock | Licuador, uninstall any flash plugins you have installed, then go to a page that runs flash and install the version offered in the web page | 05:25 |

| tpl2000 | That doesn't tell me anything. I'm relatively new to linux, as a whole. | 05:25 |

| Licuador | WARNING: ******************************************************* | 05:26 |
| Licuador | Adobe has removed their 64 bit plugin for linux. It can be expected that this plugin may well suffer from (at least) the recent severe security flaw (as of 11/06/2010) and as such should probably not be used unless you are aware of the problem. I'll leave the package on this site but please remember, | 05:26 |
| Licuador | DO NOT USE THIS PACKAGE UNLESS YOU UNDERSTAND THE DANGERS! | 05:26 |

| songer | ok i alreadi got everithing | 05:49 |
| red2kic | Faethin: Run "alsamixer" in terminal? (As for gnome-alsamixer, I guess you could try tabs to move around). | 05:49 |
| Guest54839 | if you take your usb apart there should be a toggle or something, but i dont know if you be able to get it together again | 05:49 |
| natex | Faethin: just use alsamixer | 05:49 |

| SpyderBite | gohmifune, define "ussable". Easier to use? Or have the most features? Or are the most reliable? etc. | 05:55 |

| natex | Faethin: I'm not sure then. I've never had a problem with pulseaudio, on Ubuntu or Slackware | 05:56 |
| Faethin | natex: I've found out that if I completely remove pulseaudio the sound never fails and my mic works with no problem | 05:56 |

| wrektjet | basic fstab question... can two drives be mounted to the same location... e.g. /media ? | 05:59 |
| natex | wrektjet: nope | 06:00 |

| tantiv | wrekjet: Absolutely.... but one will be on top of another. | 06:00 |
| greezmunkey | wrektjet: /media/drive1 and /media/drive2 is ok | 06:00 |
| J3ckyl | wrektjet, you do do /media/device1 /media/device2 | 06:00 |
| J3ckyl | if you create the dorectories | 06:00 |
| greezmunkey | J3ckyl: !!! | 06:00 |
| * Darren| farts | 06:01 | |
| natex | tantiv: actually, they will fight it out, the bigger one usually wins | 06:01 |
| wrektjet | i see. do i need to create them in the terminal with mkdir or can i do it with the gui | 06:01 |
| J3ckyl | point is you cannot have both | 06:01 |
| J3ckyl | wrektjet, either way | 06:01 |
| wrektjet | yes thank you that was what i wanted to understand. thnx | 06:02 |
| red2kic | wrektjet: You could mount one in /media/boot -- the other one at /media/home | 06:02 |
| red2kic | Okay. This one stumbled me. How can I get network-manager-gnome on my notification area? :O | 06:03 |
| red2kic | I tried nm-applet too. That does not work. This really is a strange issue for me. | 06:04 |
| wrektjet | ok i manually mounted these drives and one is at "/media/HDD 2" how would i enter that in fstab because there is a space in the file name | 06:05 |
| FabParma | have you tried "nautilus essential"? | 06:05 |
| patman023 | hey all, anyone have an idea of how to get the "me menu" to display new mail with thunderbird? | 06:05 |
| red2kic | wrektjet: HDD_2 or HDD-2 are generally easier to work with. You could escape that using a slash. | 06:06 |
| FabParma | I just installed, it seems to me very nice but on internet there are bad comments | 06:06 |
| wrektjet | red2kic, yes it was a mistake but i have a lot of programns already working with files on that path in dont want to have to change them all one by one. so it would look like "/media/HDD\2"? | 06:07 |
| red2kic | patman023: There are evolution-indicator -- but there are no thunderbird-indicator. I guess you can't at this time. Unless somebody made one and published it on launchpad. | 06:07 |
| niglop | how do i format a usb on ubuntu | 06:07 |

| wrektjet | i am getting a message saying i am unable to unmount a volume. where would i check to see the reason for this? | 06:13 |

| natex | uLinux: have you looked at https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/internet/C/networking-shares.html | 06:14 |
| uLinux | btw i installed samba in both machines | 06:14 |
| uLinux | no tks natex | 06:14 |
| EvilPhoenix | Evolution-X: i dont know the grep to use, but lspci might show the wifi card in the list of its output | 06:14 |
| shorttech | Hi guys, any thoughts on how to map a network drive in linux | 06:14 |
| red2kic | uLinux: I don't know about Samba -- but you could use IP instead of hostnames if that's how you connect machines. | 06:15 |
| patman023 | red2kic, never saw anytrhing in pidgin about that but sounds cool... and alltray - that in the standard repos or a ppa? this is in the end only for my gmail... | 06:15 |
| red2kic | uLinux: There also are gshare -- I have been to try that eventually. | 06:15 |
| shorttech | I already connected to a VPN through kvpnc | 06:15 |

| Evolution-X | thanks i need that info | 06:16 |
| Evolution-X | im looking to use mi card in monitor mode | 06:16 |
| red2kic | patman023: alltray is on universe repository -- Assuming you toggled that on. | 06:16 |
| uLinux | red2kic: yes i used ips to connect them | 06:16 |
| EvilPhoenix | Evolution-X: you can pastebin the output of lspci, i'll search it for your wifi card if you'd like xP | 06:16 |
| uLinux | im gonna try to change the hostname | 06:16 |
| Evolution-X | ok i will can i pm i tell u why i want that mode | 06:17 |
| natex | uLinux: have you looked at https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/internet/C/networking-shares.html? | 06:17 |
| red2kic | uLinux: You could use "Places" --> Connect To Server. Fill them out and bookmark it. That's how I usually access my HTPC with 2TB HDD. :) | 06:17 |
| red2kic | uLinux: Best to test if the connection succeed before you bookmark it. | 06:18 |
| patman023 | red2kic, heh yup | 06:18 |
| shorttech | red2kic, how can I test my connection | 06:18 |
| EvilPhoenix | Evolution-X: doesnt matter why you want the mode, all I'm going to do is tell you "This is your card" after looking over the output of lspci. finding whether it has monitor mode is up to you :) | 06:18 |
| red2kic | shorttech: What do you mean? If you can access in your machine just fine, then it worked. | 06:18 |

| shorttech | should I log out and log back in after the samba installation | 06:28 |
| shell-fu | patman023, you think that's the problem? | 06:28 |
| nisstyre65 | shorttech: sudo /etc/init.d/samba start | 06:28 |
| nisstyre65 | or somethin like that | 06:28 |
| natex | shorttech: try 'smbclient //server/share -U user' see if you can connect that way | 06:29 |
| patman023 | shell-fu, then there's the problem - the GPU aftermarket (ie you installed), or did the comp come with it installed? | 06:29 |
| JViz | thune3: is it a simple process, or am i in for a whopper? | 06:29 |
| Evolution-X | for pendrive boot or multyboot go to http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ | 06:29 |

| shell-fu | patman023, it's a refurbished computer... it came with the gpu... i heard abotu problems with it... i had 'em a lot in windows 7... when i started using ubuntu, it halted.... bout 2-3 months later it started again... | 06:29 |
| nisstyre65 | shorttech: it will be there under some name. I'm not sure what it's called on ubuntu... | 06:29 |
| natex | shorttech: you don't need the samba server to access shares | 06:30 |
| ross_ | shell_fu : still waiting for that guide : P | 06:30 |
| nisstyre65 | my bad I thought he was trying to set up the server | 06:30 |
| shell-fu | ross_, haha sorry h/o | 06:30 |

| JViz | thune3: i have two hard drives and i want to be able to boot the same OS on one of the hard drives when booting from either drive in the bootlist | 06:30 |
| shorttech | natex, " - U user" do I put my user name? | 06:31 |
| natex | shorttech: try the username from the windows box | 06:31 |
| JViz | thune3: bios bootlist, that is | 06:31 |
| fishcooker | my internal speaker on windows works seamlessly but on ubuntu it's suck | 06:31 |
| fishcooker | why, anyone? | 06:32 |
| uLinux | "The permissions of "smb" could not be determined." | 06:32 |
| uLinux | o.o | 06:32 |
| nisstyre65 | fishcooker: try turning down the volume | 06:32 |
| shell-fu | ross_, sorry, i think that is default.... | 06:32 |
| shorttech | natex, what about under share? | 06:32 |
| shell-fu | ross_, is the arrow buttons the only thing that is missing? | 06:32 |
| natex | shorttech: that would be the shared folder/directory | 06:32 |
| shell-fu | ross_, google probably thought they're obsolete, therefore took them out. If you think about it, it kinda is.... | 06:33 |
| patman023 | fishcooker, turn the volume down to about 50% and then see if it clears up, if it does, then you're likely just overdriving the speakers | 06:33 |
| ross_ | shell_fu : yes that is the only thing that's missing | 06:33 |
| fishcooker | nisstyre65 with my headphone is working well, but the speaker not | 06:33 |
| natex | shorttech: so smbclient //192.168.1.2/MUSIC -U shorttech | 06:33 |
| natex | shorttech: not literally :) | 06:33 |
| ross_ | shell_fu : : ( | 06:33 |
| uLinux | natex: i restarted both machines and then connect using "Connect to Server" at Places.. and now I can see the folder im sharing but cant open it/mount it | 06:33 |
| fishcooker | patman023: i've tried but my speaker not work | 06:34 |
| patman023 | fishcooker, thats 2 separate devices, and headphones are driven differently than speakers | 06:34 |
| red2kic | patman023: How do I invoke Tab Candy? :o | 06:34 |
| JViz | thune3: right now i'm dual booting and the bootloader is on a different drive than ubuntu, i'd like to be able to remove the hd of the other OS and still have a bootable system | 06:34 |
| natex | uLinux: you have a permissions problem | 06:34 |
| thune3 | JViz: that doesn't sound very difficult, just installing grub to the mbr of both drives. checking command... | 06:34 |
| patman023 | red2kic, try control space | 06:34 |
| Adman65 | what is the proper place to put a command i want executed on system load every time ? | 06:34 |
| fishcooker | nat* patman023 is there any chance to make it work | 06:34 |
| Adman65 | isn't like like /usr/bin/local or something | 06:34 |
| uLinux | natex: allow others to access it and guests.. these options are enabled | 06:35 |
| nisstyre65 | fishcooker: most likely the problem is that your pc speaker has the volume at or close to 100%, which would cause distortion | 06:35 |
| patman023 | fishcooker, so the speakers - when you go to something like youtube, does it work at all? | 06:35 |

| patman023 | yeah | 06:44 |
| sweetpi | wrektjet: actually since its a "2" im not sure that would work lol | 06:44 |

| === mint is now known as niglop | ||
| hylian | shell-fu no, if anything it might require a little more speed from your gpu, but not very much. | 06:49 |
| niglop | which boot option do i use for usb on bios? usb-fdd usb-hdd theres like 4 of them | 06:49 |
| shell-fu | patman023, yes i think it's my psu... it's 400 watts... on top of that, my cpu temp/gpu temp never exceed 70 C ... so it can't be overheating correct? | 06:50 |
| patman023 | hylian, he's on a 400W psu with a nvidia 220 | 06:50 |
| hylian | shell-fu it should be negligable, it shouldnt matter much at all. | 06:50 |
| patman023 | shell-fu, doubt it unless it's heat damaged and the expansionof parts causes a physical disconnect has borked | 06:50 |
| Techniq | niglop: those are orders of booting sequence; pick one that has usb > hdd (if you want to read usb before hdd) | 06:50 |
| patman023 | gah | 06:51 |
| shell-fu | patman023, but get this... this problem didn't come to me in ubuntu intill i switched monitors and had an increase in resolution | 06:51 |
| niglop | yes Techniq but there are like four different usb options i dont know which one | 06:51 |
| shell-fu | patman023, i had dual monitors... one 32" and one 20" running both ad 1360x766 | 06:51 |
| patman023 | shell-fu, wouldnt be surprised personally, extra computations=extra power draw and extra heat | 06:51 |
| hylian | shell-fu that doesnt mean that ubuntu supports a higher resolution for your graphics card, or it might only slightly support it. | 06:52 |
| patman023 | shell-fu, whats the new res? | 06:52 |
| shell-fu | patman023, now it started when i have one monitor but have a 1920x1050 resolution | 06:52 |
| Techniq | niglop: plz check pm's | 06:52 |
| shell-fu | hylian, please reiterate | 06:52 |
| patman023 | shell-fu, hrm thats tricky... | 06:52 |
| red2kic | bigle: Check in /media/ -- Also, keep the conversation here. It should mount the USB on the desktop for you. | 06:53 |
| shell-fu | hylian, i don't understand fully. the higher reso isn't supported, and that's why it is turning off.... also when i ran in windows 7 i had same problem with dual monitor configuration at 1360x766 and a single one same res | 06:53 |
| hylian | shell-fu ubuntu, depending upon what driver your using may or may not support certain features of your graphics card. so while it might support, say 1024x768, it might not support 1140x872, etc. | 06:53 |
| patman023 | shell-fu, also what grafx intensive prog are you using? | 06:54 |
| shell-fu | hylian, like, streaming videos.... playing mmorpgs like runescape that are web based | 06:54 |
| patman023 | hylian, that shouldnt cause his whole machine to just shut down | 06:54 |
| hylian | patman023 or it would cause ubuntu to boot non x. hmmm. | 06:54 |
| patman023 | afk | 06:55 |
| shell-fu | patman023, my computer doesn't turn off... it goes black... t hen the log on screen just comes up | 06:55 |
| shell-fu | patman023, and the computer restarts fully... all programs deleted etc etc | 06:55 |
| hylian | shell-fu i think there is a problem, software or hardware. the only thing you can try is lowering or increasing your resolution and/or your refresh rate. | 06:56 |
| hylian | shell-fu are you using the driver ubuntu gave you or the one from nvidia? | 06:56 |
| shell-fu | nvidia's pro driver | 06:56 |
| shell-fu | hylian, nvidia's pro driver | 06:57 |
| socky | Hey guys, I'm using lucid, in a VM, on a secondary monitor. The resolution I need to make it work is 1224x698. I have tried doing "xrandr --output LVDS --mode 1224x698" but it doesnt recognise LVDS what should i do to get that resolution set | 06:57 |
| hylian | shell-fu you might want to see if ubuntu suggests using another driver, it can still be from nvidia, but more compatable. on my machine, a slightly older driver is actually more compatable. | 06:57 |
| shell-fu | hylian, when i go into the sys >> admin >> hardware drivers it only shows one driver... | 06:58 |

| kpkarl | blitzo, soundKonverter will do it | 07:05 |
| JViz | thune3: that's because grub is on sdb? | 07:05 |

| ubottu | Cocoa_Poo: 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. :-) | 07:36 |
| Cocoa_Poo | what if that was my question? | 07:36 |
| blackrock | Hey all! Good day | 07:36 |
| Bogus8 | I'm running Server 10.4 with 512mb of ram and showing rather large ammounts of memory use... Landscape is showing 47% on the MOTD and atop is flashing red in the memory area... but nothing looks unusual in the processes of atop or top | 07:36 |
| dustin | jigal, what is you so | 07:36 |
| _jesse_ | Cocoa_Poo: then yes you can, but you can only ask one and you already used it | 07:36 |
| tpl2000 | Hup, there's your question. No more questions from you, Cocoa_poo | 07:37 |
| blackrock | Where do I go if I want to add a brand new keyboard layout to Ubuntu? | 07:37 |
| _jesse_ | Cocoa_Poo: :P | 07:37 |
| Cocoa_Poo | Can i ask more than one? | 07:37 |
| Jigal | dustin: you so? | 07:37 |
| dustin | ejv,yes? | 07:37 |
| _jesse_ | Cocoa_Poo: yep I raised your limit to two and yet you still used them all | 07:37 |
| Bogus8 | Cocoa_Poo: you have asked 3 now | 07:37 |
| hateball | !ask | 07:37 |
| ubottu | 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. :-) | 07:37 |
| Cocoa_Poo | Can't i bargain for unlimited questions? | 07:38 |
| Jigal | dustin: here is a screenshot http://twitpic.com/292q0b | 07:38 |
| _jesse_ | Cocoa_Poo: nah against the rules, something about wishing for more wishing | 07:38 |
| dustin | jigal, sorry bad keyboard its going out, | 07:38 |
| blackrock | Hey guys, please reply | 07:38 |
| Cocoa_Poo | can i chat? | 07:38 |
| Cocoa_Poo | Ok I'm done | 07:38 |
| Cocoa_Poo | lol? | 07:38 |
| _jesse_ | Cocoa_Poo: :P ask your support question already | 07:38 |
| thune3 | flomaster: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBootupHowto has command in "installing custom init-scripts" section. "update-rc.d". | 07:38 |
| Cocoa_Poo | that wasn't a question. | 07:38 |
| Cocoa_Poo | Support? | 07:38 |
| Cocoa_Poo | I'm just looking for the main lobby | 07:39 |
| blackrock | Where do I go if I want to add a brand new keyboard layout to Ubuntu? | 07:39 |
| Cocoa_Poo | o.o | 07:39 |
| _jesse_ | Cocoa_Poo: why else would you be asking a question? | 07:39 |
| Bogus8 | You know what is odd... those that break the rules/eticate about "asking to ask" are the ones that get the attention of others and then get their question answered... were as the ones, like me, who are patient and polite have their questions over looked over and over :( | 07:39 |
| _jesse_ | Cocoa_Poo: the main lobby for what? | 07:39 |
| Cocoa_Poo | for chatting on freenode? | 07:39 |
| bazhang | Cocoa_Poo, not this channel | 07:39 |
| Jigal | dustin: you got my screenshot? http://twitpic.com/292q0b | 07:39 |
| elky | Cocoa_Poo, this channel is for technical support for Ubuntu. You're looking for #defocus I think | 07:39 |
| _jesse_ | Cocoa_Poo: #freenode-offtopic maybe? | 07:39 |
| Cocoa_Poo | which one? | 07:39 |
| dustin | jigal,yes | 07:39 |
| bazhang | Cocoa_Poo, try #ubuntu-offtopic or #defocus | 07:40 |
| ogunay | hi, i use ubuntu lucid and firefox 3.6.7. When i try to download a file from web, it gives an error; /tmp/G_wzxnBN..bin.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read. Try again later, or contact the server administrator. | 07:40 |

| Cocoa_Poo | Ok | 07:40 |
| Cocoa_Poo | well heres a TQ one | 07:40 |
| Cocoa_Poo | What does ''voice'' change? | 07:40 |
| _jesse_ | Bogus8: people will answer your question if they know it | 07:40 |
| Bogus8 | Cocoa_Poo: typically nothing | 07:40 |
| dustin | bogus8, if i could type fast than i wouyld be faster then the bot | 07:40 |
| Jigal | dustin: do you know what to do about it | 07:40 |
| Cocoa_Poo | then whats the point? | 07:40 |
| Bogus8 | _jesse_: I understand... but I find it hard to believe that I just have THAT good of questions. ;) | 07:41 |
| bazhang | Cocoa_Poo, this has nothing to do with Ubuntu support | 07:41 |
| dustin | jigal,just a sec | 07:41 |
| Bogus8 | _jesse_: it happens a LOT | 07:41 |
| _jesse_ | !memory | Bogus8 | 07:41 |
| ubottu | Bogus8: If you are wondering why some tools report your system has very little free memory, have a look at http://www.linuxatemyram.com/ | A short primer on Linux memory management can be found here: http://sourcefrog.net/weblog/software/linux-kernel/free-mem.html | 07:41 |
| _jesse_ | Bogus8: there's an answer :P | 07:41 |
| Jigal | dustin: ok\ | 07:41 |
| thune3 | ogunay: if it is just a problem with the one file (or one site), then the error message is accurate. | 07:41 |
| dustin | jigal,just a sec i am looking into it | 07:42 |
| Bogus8 | _jesse_: I do understand that memory is cached a lot and is miss leading... but landscape compensates for that... as does atop (only flashing when needed)... right? | 07:42 |
| Cocoa_Poo | what does ubuntu mean? | 07:42 |
| ogunay | thune3: i've face with this error in different sites | 07:42 |
| Bogus8 | Cocoa_Poo: you would be better served at www.google.com | 07:42 |
| Cocoa_Poo | what's a google? | 07:43 |
| bazhang | Cocoa_Poo, please stop | 07:43 |
| Bogus8 | click that link then click the X in the top right ;) | 07:43 |
| willemb | Hi guys. VERY frequently (think it might be every second reboot) empathy is all out of whack | 07:43 |
| _jesse_ | Bogus8: hmm, not familiar with landscape :-/ | 07:43 |
| willemb | no contacts display, and it is impossible to register accounts | 07:43 |
| Cocoa_Poo | Is there moderators on here? | 07:44 |
| Techniq | willemb: you should try gaim (pidgin) =) | 07:44 |
| willemb | then, next day all better again | 07:44 |
| _jesse_ | Cocoa_Poo: yes | 07:44 |
| Bogus8 | _jesse_: canonical's little tool that gives that info on the MOTD on the newer ubuntu log ins | 07:44 |
| HeTaL | Simple question. Can I make a "live" usb that I can actually store information on? As in I want to make a live usb where I don't have to always apt-get everything from scratch. I've never attempted actually using a live usb, so I'm new to that. | 07:44 |
| === a_ is now known as Guest396 | ||
| Bogus8 | Cocoa_Poo: you are probably getting close to finding out | 07:44 |
| _jesse_ | Bogus8: right, I know *what* it is :) just not how it manages memory | 07:45 |
| willemb | Techniq: Really? Is that the reccommended action? Why on earth did ubuntu go with empathy? | 07:45 |
| HeTaL | Free cookies to whoever answers my question. Yes or No will suffice. Thanks in advance. | 07:45 |
| dustin | it can be dont, i did it in a vm ware | 07:46 |
| dustin | done* | 07:46 |
| Cocoa_Poo | Why am i not banned then? | 07:46 |
| Bogus8 | _jesse_: ah... sorry. Well, it wouldn't serve much purpose if it didn't compensate for the way linux uses memory/cache. It would always be reporting a large amount of memory usage (typically 100%) if it didn't.. right? | 07:46 |
| Techniq | willemb: not sure, but i've always been quite satisfied w/ pidgin - has multi IM types | 07:46 |
| _jesse_ | HeTaL: you might be able to do it with live usb, def not with live cd | 07:46 |
| _jesse_ | Cocoa_Poo: beats me | 07:46 |
| Techniq | willemb: supports msn, yahoo, aim, icq, etc | 07:46 |
| bazhang | HeTaL, sure, persistent usb | 07:46 |
| Bogus8 | HeTaL: yes | 07:46 |

| Bogus8 | now where are my cookies!? | 07:47 |
| Cocoa_Poo | is there anyway to recover corrupt data on a usb drive? | 07:47 |
| bazhang | HeTaL, check the last link there | 07:47 |
| _jesse_ | Bogus8: right, I agree ;) | 07:47 |

| * HeTaL gives _jesse_, bazhang, and Bogus8 all they can eat free cookies. =D | 07:48 | |
| Cocoa_Poo | Ok last one was a serious question T_T | 07:49 |
| thune3 | ogunay: maybe try right-click/save file as, or there are a couple suggestions http://kb.mozillazine.org/Source_file_could_not_be_read | 07:49 |

| _jesse_ | HeTaL: woot! | 07:49 |
| Cocoa_Poo | is there anyway to recover corrupt data on a usb drive? | 07:49 |
| Bogus8 | _jesse_: basically I am running a very similar system on 8.04 and all the same processes/services (actually more) and my atop doesn't show any issues what so ever on my system... but on my buddy's (which I set up and installed) it's complaining about mem usage. | 07:49 |
| _jesse_ | Cocoa_Poo: ever heard of the boy who cried wolf? | 07:49 |
| bazhang | !repeat | Cocoa_Poo | 07:49 |
| ubottu | Cocoa_Poo: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 07:49 |

| Bogus8 | Cocoa_Poo: is this really that fun for you? | 07:50 |
| _jesse_ | Bogus8: hmm :-/ I'm at a loss, I'm not sure | 07:50 |
| HeTaL | I know I might be better off asking this question in the bt4 room, but since bt4 is now based on ubuntu, do you think it would be easy to make a persistent live usb? | 07:51 |
| dustin | jigal, ok im the guy that needs every bit of info, i dont want to repeat myself, cuz my keyboard is going out,and it takes forever to talk | 07:51 |

| mtx_init | HeTaL: well there are many different types, al with different syntax. So its best to first find out what your class will be using. | 08:26 |
| TheJ3ckyl | blitzer320, Don't think you can put it in a size window | 08:27 |
| TheJ3ckyl | err side | 08:27 |
| wrektjet | what does ubuntu consider the center/click wheel of a mouse? | 08:27 |

| ikonia | terry: as long as the codecs are supported (covered in the document I've linked you to) it will play anything | 08:28 |
| TheJ3ckyl | terry, heh yes, watching one now | 08:28 |
| terry | But they are staggering for me! | 08:28 |
| mtx_init | terry: in many cases yes, but depending on your hardware there are some cases where performance will suck | 08:28 |
| HeTaL | Techniq: Thanks. I'll check out the links. As long as I learn basic syntax and memory management, I think it should be a good enough headstart. | 08:28 |

| siba | Hello, I'm using an acer aspire 2930 and I want to connect an LG w2252s external monitor. I have a problem with the refresh rate. It looks like it is out of sync. I setup the acer monitor at 1280x800 60hz and the LG monitor at 1680x1050 60hz. I tried to change the refresh rate of the LG monitor but I can't find any other refresh rate available with xrandr or the built in gnome preferences. How can I fix this problem? Thank you very much | 09:15 |

| Nalum | Hello all, not sure if this is the correct place for this question or not but I was wondering if it was at all possible to set up one machine on a local network to download updates for Ubuntu as they become available and then distribute the updates to the rest of the machines on the network? | 10:36 |
| erUSUL | mir0mir0: i use default theme never modified it ... | 10:36 |
| brijithmac | ikonia: any code snippet to packages installed which have text samba anywhere in the heading or description | 10:36 |
| erUSUL | !aptproxy | Nalum | 10:36 |
| ubottu | Nalum: apt-proxy is a program that acts as a local apt repository server for a LAN, only fetching from the internet when required. To set it up see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptProxy | 10:36 |
| mir0mir0 | erUSUL: Aha! I started with a modded one: I'll go back and look. Cheers! | 10:37 |
| Nalum | thank you ubottu and erusul will take a look at that | 10:37 |
| ColonelC81 | Anyone wanna help me with sloooooow USb speeds? | 10:37 |
| erUSUL | !anyone | ColonelC81 | 10:38 |
| ubottu | ColonelC81: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 10:38 |
| ColonelC81 | My usb pen drive starts transfering largish files fast then dips to 1mb/s and advice? | 10:40 |
| ColonelC81 | the powered external HDD seems pretty fast | 10:40 |
| ikonia | brijithmac: the script is called smbd in /etc/init.d | 10:40 |
| JediMaster | are kde/kubuntu questions strictly limited to #kubuntu? | 10:41 |
| erUSUL | ColonelC81: the same pen is speedier in windows ? some usb flash drives are just slow ... ( one of mine max outs at 4 MiB/s ) | 10:41 |
| ColonelC81 | no the USB is much faster in XP. It stops and starts too. I have read up on it and its a known problem. Something to do with a buffer I'm a n00b and need help fixing it | 10:42 |

| siba | Hello, I'm using an acer aspire 2930 and I want to connect an LG w2252s external monitor. I have a problem with the refresh rate. It looks like it is out of sync. I setup the acer monitor at 1280x800 60hz and the LG monitor at 1680x1050 60hz. I tried to change the refresh rate of the LG monitor but I can't find any other refresh rate available with xrandr or the built in gnome preferences. How can I fix this problem? Is there any IRC channel I can | 10:46 |
| terrid | hi all | 10:48 |
| terrid | I'm having a slight problem getting dual monitors working | 10:48 |
| JediMaster | phase_, nvidia hd audio, but never mind, I've re-arranged the audio devices and also noticed that every output is muted for some weird reason (I didn't mute them!) | 10:49 |
| terrid | My Graphics card is listed as R423GL-SE but I can't seem to find any drivers | 10:49 |
| DiploCat | when I grep a directory for filenames only, ie. grep -irl "word" ./ - I get an output to stdout, but when I try to output the same data to a file, ie. grep -irl "word" ./ >> outfile.txt - the file is empty, why would this be? | 10:51 |

| atx | hello folks, i want to set up a kiosk mode ubuntu. i've used sabayon an pessulus to configure a profile works for me so far. but, i want to forbid saving and creating files on disk, or at least removing all files at logout. when i deactivate safe to disk in pessulus, i cant save text files out of an editor, but can still create new files and copy files, how do i forbid this? | 10:53 |
| erUSUL | DiploCat: it works here. | 10:53 |
| manohar | dfdf | 10:54 |
| DiploCat | erUSUL, yeah, I'm seriously confused :\ | 10:54 |
| ikonia | brijithmac: so what's the problem | 10:54 |
| TuxSax | DiploCat: try grep -iRl "word" ./* | 10:55 |
| astropirate | does ubuntu support proc/[PID]/mem ? the file is there but the contents of it is empty. This is so for every PID that I tried | 10:55 |
| brijithmac | ikonia:hence in init.d I can see smbd, the script you mentioned and samba4 | 10:55 |
| brijithmac | do I need both | 10:55 |
| ikonia | brijithmac: check the scripts out | 10:56 |

| DiploCat | TuxSax, no good :( - but I've realised when I drill down to a directory holding files, it works... it's only when there's subfolders :? | 10:58 |
| TuxSax | DiploCat: it works for me here | 10:58 |
| TuxSax | I always used it as I told you and never had problems | 10:59 |
| TuxSax | not even when it has to drill down to subdirs | 10:59 |
| dustin | i need help,please? | 10:59 |
| TuxSax | can it be that you don't have enough permissions? | 10:59 |
| phanindra | erUSUL:I googled for "Initializing nautilus-gdu extension", from there i redirected to "http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1384038" using the command given ther i.e"rm -rf ~/.local/share/gvfs-metadata", then i rebooted my machine. the problem was fixed | 10:59 |
| TuxSax | have you tried with sudo? | 10:59 |
| erUSUL | phanindra: ok; thank you for sharing that with us | 11:00 |
| soreau | ! help | dustin | 11:00 |
| ubottu | dustin: 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. :-) | 11:00 |
| GutZuWiSSeN | hi .. is there a really good FTP client (gui) for ubuntu? | 11:00 |
| soreau | !ftp | 11:00 |
| ubottu | FTP clients: Nautilus (Places -> Connect to server), gFTP, FileZilla (for !GNOME); Konqueror, Kasablanca, KFTPGrabber (for !KDE); FireFTP (for Firefox); ftp, lftp (for !cli) - See also !FTPd | 11:00 |
| erUSUL | GutZuWiSSeN: nautilus is decent :) | 11:00 |
| laserbeam | Filezila | 11:01 |
| DiploCat | TuxSax, no, it's not that... and I know it *should* work... it prints to stdout, so I can't understand why anything changes when writing to a file... | 11:01 |
| GutZuWiSSeN | hmm okaaay^^ | 11:01 |
| phanindra | its you who told me to run nautilus /mnt , because of which i could fix it. Thank you for for that | 11:01 |
| dustin | shut bot, please? its been a fusterating day | 11:01 |
| phanindra | erUSUL:its you who told me to run nautilus /mnt , because of which i could fix it. Thank you for for that | 11:01 |
| TuxSax | DiploCat: Mmm, I see, so to stdout it does work, lemme check then what can be the reason | 11:01 |
| === Ill is now known as Illuminatus | ||

| erUSUL | phanindra: no problem | 11:02 |
| TuxSax | DiploCat: do you want a file list or the full path of each file too? | 11:02 |

| === ericm|ubuntu is now known as ericm-afk | ||
| phanindra | may i ask what is ciao? | 11:03 |
| DiploCat | TuxSax, a file list, preferably with full path (or relative path) | 11:03 |
| soreau | phanindra: It's italian, google it | 11:03 |
| DiploCat | erUSUL, no dice :\ | 11:04 |
| Shootfast | DiploCat, what happens if you use: grep -irl "word" ./ | tee outfile.txt | 11:04 |
| phanindra | soreau: thank you. I got the meaning, its "bye" | 11:05 |
| DiploCat | Shootfast, same thing! | 11:05 |
| soreau | indeed | 11:06 |
| soreau | DiploCat: worksforme here | 11:06 |
| soreau | DiploCat: Do you have write access to the directory you're trying to write the file in? | 11:07 |
| TuxSax | DiploCat: try also echo `grep -irl "word" ./*` >> outfile.txt | 11:07 |
| TuxSax | DiploCat: soreau may be right about that too | 11:08 |
| bloink | hi. i | 11:08 |
| bloink | i | 11:08 |
| TuxSax | that's why I suggested to try with sudo too | 11:08 |
| soreau | Sounds like permissions to me | 11:08 |
| DiploCat | permissions seem fine, but I'll try sudo to be sure | 11:08 |
| bloink | im having massive problems with pulseaudio... at the moment it uses 100% cpu when playing music | 11:08 |
| soreau | lol | 11:09 |
| TuxSax | I'm out for lunch, see ya later | 11:09 |
| bloink | any hints? | 11:09 |
| soreau | DiploCat: Using sudo at random is not a good way to test permissions | 11:09 |
| soreau | DiploCat: Use ls -l | 11:09 |
| DiploCat | hmm, still doesn't work | 11:09 |
| DiploCat | permissions are fine | 11:09 |
| soreau | ! pulseaudio | bloink | 11:09 |
| ubottu | bloink: PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 11:09 |
| Shootfast | is it a read only filesystem? | 11:09 |
| DiploCat | I think it's something to do with the file's encoding | 11:09 |
| soreau | DiploCat: Which directory is it? | 11:10 |
| DiploCat | it's all in my home dir | 11:10 |
| DiploCat | and it works when I grep a file specifically | 11:10 |
| soreau | DiploCat: Create a dummy test file with some 'string' then try again. It should work | 11:10 |

| muthu_ | hi iam new to linux iam using ubuntu 10.04 how to config audio system | 11:12 |

If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 11:13 |

| mir0mir0 | sawsereqwa: no: that's my setup & it works fine... | 11:14 |
| sawsereqwa | mir0mir0, thanks | 11:14 |
| soreau | sawsereqwa: I doubt it. Each partition works separately as it's own entity | 11:14 |
| NeverGone | soreau: but that is not official supported kernel | 11:16 |
| soreau | NeverGone: If you choose the supported broken one, good. YOu're already done ;) | 11:16 |

| Kingsy | red2kic - how? apt-get install adobe-acrobat? | 11:22 |
| red2kic | wrektjet: Any deb in the current path. | 11:22 |
| red2kic | Kingsy: "apt-get install acroread" | 11:22 |
| froud | Kingsy: or in terminal type sudo apt-get install acroread but once partners repo is enabled | 11:23 |
| dustin | soreau, is that a program? | 11:23 |
| Kingsy | froud - that seemed to have work ^^^ | 11:23 |
| Kingsy | froud - it must have already been enabled | 11:23 |
| icha | hy .... | 11:24 |
| froud | Kingsy: so now you should have Acrobat Reader 9 or something like that installed | 11:24 |

| meowbuntu | soreau: he did have a nvidia card in before but he upgraded to the ati one so he may need to reconfigure /etc/X11/xorg.conf <- that nvidia left behind not sure though | 11:36 |
| soreau | meowbuntu: According to the radeon gpu comparison chart wiki page, that card is an x800 which cannot use fglrx/catalyst/proprietary drivers. Instead you have to remove them and use the open radeon driver that should have already been working in the first place | 11:36 |
| soreau | meowbuntu: Get rid of xorg.conf since X will select radeon by default | 11:38 |

| red2kic | wrektjet: No problem. I still think you're crazy though. | 11:46 |
| Kingsy | the network printer is on a windows machine | 11:47 |
| leifmadsen | if I run initctl list I don't see the ttyIAX like I expect | 11:47 |
| leifmadsen | this is my /etc/init/ttyIAX file: http://pastebin.com/VMskJDRe | 11:47 |

| dzan | hi, i used update-rc wicd defaults to make wicd start on system start but it didn't work... anyone knows? | 13:00 |
| meowbuntu | gogeta1: here http://www.pastebin.org/422003 | 13:00 |
| abhijit | dzan, you want to add wicd to startup at login? | 13:00 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: a updated version of linux is pretty hard to brake into | 13:00 |
| nascentmind | anybody? | 13:00 |
| Dr_Willis | dzan: you did look in the rc## dirs to see if it actually made a script? last i tried wicd it auto added itself as needed to the various starup places | 13:01 |
| dzan | abhijit, yes | 13:01 |
| TuxSax | dzan: what is the exact command you tried? | 13:01 |
| dzan | Dr_Willis, i'll check... where are those dirs? | 13:01 |
| Dr_Willis | dzan: you dont uses services for things that yopu need to run at 'login' | 13:01 |
| dzan | TuxSax, update-rc.d wicd defaults | 13:01 |
| abhijit | dzan, then why not just add command of wicd to preferences=>startup aps? | 13:01 |
| Dr_Willis | dzan: im thiniking you are confused about how the rc.d stuff works | 13:01 |
| dzan | abhijit, only shell, it's a minimal install | 13:02 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: just never say never there has been a few unix baddys out there all dead now | 13:02 |
| Dr_Willis | wicd has a cli interface? cant say ive noticed that. | 13:02 |
| dzan | i'll explain: it's ubuntu 9.10 minimal with xmbc on top, xmbc has no controlls for it, it has to autostart and the daemon has to run | 13:02 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: but the chances are very slow | 13:02 |
| dzan | Dr_Willis, yes: wicd-curses | 13:02 |
| gogeta1 | low | 13:02 |
| metalgeek | Dr_Willis, Hello and Good morning, Any chance i could pick your extensive brain? | 13:02 |

| Dr_Willis | metalgeek: i got to run to the EyeDoctor. I will be back in about 2 hrs.. | 13:03 |
| Dr_Willis | bye all | 13:03 |
| madrid | ubottu: I have not asked that, my question is this: I have a doubt about one thing, Linux is incompatible or immune to the dangerous botnet, or zombie network? | 13:03 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 13:03 |
| metalgeek | Dr_Willis, | 13:03 |
| dzan | TuxSax, i removed wicd with -f then added it...didn't help | 13:03 |
| metalgeek | Dr_Willis, Good lucl lol | 13:03 |
| dzan | Dr_Willis, does it make a difference ? X or not? | 13:03 |

| dzan | i had it working once ,don't remember how i did it | 13:03 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: well the chances are pretty darn slim and are incomptable of any windows ones | 13:04 |
| madrid | gogeta1: I have not asked that, my question is this: I have a doubt about one thing, Linux is incompatible or immune to the dangerous botnet, or zombie network? | 13:04 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: i just answerd | 13:04 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: knothing is 100% | 13:05 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: but its defently at 99$ | 13:05 |
| dzan | Dr_Willis, the scripts are there | 13:05 |
| bazhang | madrid, did you have an actual ubuntu support issue question? perhaps try #ubuntu-offtopic or ##linux if not | 13:05 |
| gogeta1 | % | 13:05 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: thers currently no known activ linux botnets but it does not mean some hacker will make one | 13:06 |
| madrid | gogeta1 what is knothing? | 13:06 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: in genrel knothing is 100% immune to anything | 13:06 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: being thers are no activ linux botnets maleware etc its a common myth linux cant get them | 13:08 |
| madrid | gogeta1 the genrel is the linux kernel? | 13:08 |
| coz_ | madrid, at this point ... not to worry unless you are running a server... my nephew has already been attacked by viruses on his linux server...however ..the more popular linux / ubuntu becomes the more likely there will be attacks... i would give it another 4 or 5 years before it starts to be a problem | 13:08 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: in anything pc realted | 13:08 |
| gogeta1 | coz_: yea but its funny to laugh when they attack you server with windows vireses | 13:09 |
| coz_ | although there was a trojan reported from gnome-look just a few months ago | 13:09 |
| gogeta1 | coz_: yea dead now | 13:10 |
| coz_ | gogeta1, yes thankfully :) | 13:10 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: linux vireses have happond but unlike windowz one they are short lived | 13:10 |
| Jinxed- | I am using samba and sharing a folder over my network | 13:11 |
| coz_ | being that the kernel is open source it is much easier to detect back doors and security hazards way many people work on this :) | 13:11 |
| Jinxed- | my windows computers can't acess the folder now | 13:11 |
| coz_ | madrid, if you are really concerned you can go to the BlackHat site to read on current security events in linux | 13:11 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: we patch whatever they founf to expolite and kill the vires something windows cant always do | 13:11 |
| jamesaNELAY | how do i find out if i have lucid hardy jaunty etc? | 13:11 |
| bazhang | jamesaNELAY, lsb_release -a | 13:12 |
| jamesaNELAY | lucid, cheers bazhang | 13:12 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: calling it immune would be a lie calling it pretty dammed hard to infect would be more acrret | 13:12 |
| bazhang | !ot | 13:13 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 13:13 |
| TuxSax | coz_: so far, most people that "mess" with linux are decent people, and as long as linux has only a little portion of the world market, it will remain clean | 13:13 |
| bazhang | lets take botnet chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please | 13:13 |
| petercoulton | Nevermind. I figured it out. | 13:13 |
| coz_ | TuxSax, exactly plus with blackhat conferances these issues are looked at very deeply | 13:13 |
| TuxSax | but nowadays, if someone really wanted, it would be very easy to use exploits and write malware for linux | 13:14 |
| gogeta1 | lol think he sent the entire channel into blackhat mode | 13:14 |
| madrid | gogetta1 linux is incompatible better than immune | 13:14 |
| coz_ | :) | 13:14 |
| TuxSax | that's why I still like linux as long as is not "mainstream" | 13:14 |
| Pici | madrid, gogeta1: This channel is for Ubuntu support only, if you want to continue the conversation please move to #ubuntu-offtopic | 13:15 |
| TuxSax | it remains relatively safe | 13:15 |
| gogeta1 | madrid: atm i knoe of no bad softwhere in the wiled for now both | 13:15 |
| coz_ | TuxSax, with an estimated 60 million users that will soon change | 13:15 |

| leo_dragao | ubuntu brasil | 13:20 |

| TuxSax | ashiswin: I don't think that's possible | 13:23 |
| ashiswin | but now i have 2 sound icons | 13:23 |

| ashiswin | metalgeek: I added a notification area to my top panel. It comes with a volume control and network manager icon. How do i remove the vol control icon from the notification area without touching the network manager? | 13:23 |
| madrid | ashiswin what is your question? | 13:23 |

| ashiswin | !ip | 13:24 |
| lostinspace_46 | natex, Thanks, I'll give that a try | 13:24 |
| gogeta1 | i tryed that | 13:24 |
| metalgeek | gogeta1, i understand what an ip is i just don't understand your question | 13:24 |
| ashiswin | madrid or metalgeek any luck? | 13:24 |
| gogeta1 | metalgeek: i asked if the ad-hoc was getting a ip | 13:24 |
| metalgeek | ashiswin, looking now | 13:24 |
| ashiswin | thanks | 13:24 |
| madrid | ashiswin: whats is the qn? | 13:24 |
| ashiswin | I added a notification area to my top panel. It comes with a volume control and network manager icon. How do i remove the vol control icon from the notification area without touching the network manager? | 13:25 |
| coz_ | kangarooo1, I qam finding on lucid that installed applications do not always show up under the menus right away...an old problem I never expected to see again... however checking in ghe main menu helps or just reboot | 13:25 |
| metalgeek | gogeta1, Both of the machines on the ad-hoc have manually set ip's in the same subnet mask | 13:25 |
| coz_ | kangarooo1, and "ghe" is suppose to be "the" sorry damn fingers :) | 13:25 |
| gogeta1 | metalgeek: when i ad-hoc my psp under ubuntu i had to set it to link only | 13:25 |
| kangarooo1 | coz_: im in xubuntu i dont have that menu. but i have file:///usr/share/applications/wine.desktop but it doesnt show up in menu.. maybe a new bug? | 13:25 |
| metalgeek | gogeta1, not an idiot just a noob to linux | 13:25 |
| gogeta1 | metalgeek: otherwise it would not get a ip adress | 13:26 |
| metalgeek | gogeta1, my psp works fine | 13:26 |
| coz_ | kangarooo1, oooo then I am at a loss...did you try rebooting to see if the menu gets refreshed??/ there used to be a sudo update-menus command which no longer exists as far as I can see | 13:26 |
| natex | kangarooo1: make sure the .desktop file is correct. If it's badly formatted or plain wrong, it probably won't show up. | 13:26 |
| gogeta1 | metalgeek: if i rember my ad-hoc both machines need to have the same ip for the link to work | 13:27 |
| metalgeek | ashiswin, sorry still looking | 13:27 |
| coz_ | kangarooo1, if all else fails... sudo apt-get autoremove --purge wine and reinstall it | 13:27 |
| ashiswin | metalgeek: its ok:) | 13:27 |
| kangarooo1 | coz_: also ive experienced the same problem (programm item not showing but in applications folder it is) in another comp with google-gadgets-qt 2 days ago | 13:28 |
| metalgeek | ashiswin, do you mind loosing the mail icon? | 13:28 |
| ashiswin | yes i do metalgeek. why? | 13:28 |
| gogeta1 | metalgeek: and thats probly confusing the hell out of samba | 13:28 |
| Epcylon | All of a sudden the oldstyle init.d scripts aren't being run on startup (including memcached and postfix).. anyone know what could be the cause? | 13:28 |
| coz_ | kangarooo1, yeah as I mentioned... I have noticed this issue in Lucid... its an old problem that should have never shown up again | 13:29 |
| kangarooo1 | natex: yes i think thats the problem.. but file looks similar to others.. | 13:29 |
| MrPink | Hello, I have Ubuntu 10.04 installed and a Webcam: Logitech Quickcam STX... what do I need to install to use the cam? | 13:29 |
| metalgeek | gogeta1, if both machines have the same ip how will the network tell the difference | 13:29 |
| kangarooo1 | ah and btw coz_ that other comp is 10.10 but this from witch i write and want wine on is 10.04 | 13:29 |
| coz_ | kangarooo1, understood | 13:29 |
| bazhang | MrPink, try cheese and camorama for starters | 13:30 |
| natex | kangarooo1: make sure file permissions are correct (readable), and make sure the file adheres to http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ | 13:30 |
| coz_ | kangarooo1, did you open the Main Menu and check? | 13:30 |
| gogeta1 | metalgeek: ad-hoc is a odd mode i just rember a guide on it saying the ips need to be the same | 13:30 |
| coz_ | kangarooo1, nevermind you said this is xfce | 13:30 |
| madrid | Why does wine programs can not detect my webcam? | 13:31 |
| coz_ | kangarooo1, sorry...did you say you already rebooted? | 13:31 |
| ashiswin | any luck madrid? | 13:31 |
| metalgeek | ashiswin, cause the solution i tried got rid of the volume and the mail. Though i suppose you could add that again with a custom launcher | 13:31 |
| ashiswin | oh, metalgeek. i wanna keep the default vol control and remove the new one | 13:31 |
| metalgeek | is there a good guide for ad-hoc networks with ubuntu? | 13:31 |
| gogeta1 | metalgeek: You should now be connected to the ad hoc network. Use the iwconfig command to view the cell being used. This must match the same cell on the other PCs that you want to connect to. | 13:32 |
| TuxSax | ashiswin: do you mind starting fresh by restoring the panels to the defaut and customize it from there? | 13:32 |
| whiskers75 | i cant install ubuntu 10.04 from the cd i have tried another cd but that dows not work can anyone help | 13:32 |

| hemza | i do not use swap ... is this influent on my laptop | 13:32 |
| coz_ | whiskers75, ok you downloaded the ISO image and how did you burn this? | 13:33 |
| madrid | ashiswin: no luck I am very pessimistic and with linux more yet | 13:33 |
| coz_ | whiskers75, which application did you burn the cd with? | 13:33 |
| whiskers75 | i did it on a mac by going into disk utility | 13:33 |
| krabador | hi, i must enable universe and multiverse repos from terminal, how can i do it? | 13:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | ashiswin, i think if you uninstall indicator-sound it will remove the new volume and leave the mail icon. good luck. | 13:33 |
| MrPink | bazhang: Don't I need some kind of drivers first? Camorama gives me an error when I start it "cannot caputre Image" | 13:33 |
| coz_ | whiskers75, ok and does that disk utility allow for burning at 1x | 13:34 |
| gogeta1 | metalgeek: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Adhoc | 13:34 |
| bazhang | krabador, from system administration software sources | 13:34 |
| ashiswin | hmm thanks zykotick9, ill try that | 13:34 |
| TuxSax | ashiswin: if my suggestion suits you, try to run this command: sudo debconf gnome-panel | 13:34 |
| whiskers75 | i think so... the lowest is 2x? | 13:34 |
| metalgeek | gogeta1, your the best cheers | 13:34 |
| ashiswin | ok | 13:34 |
| abhijit | !universe | krabador | 13:34 |
| bazhang | MrPink, I would suggest checking the list of supported webcams then | 13:34 |
| ubottu | krabador: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/project/about-ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 13:34 |
| bazhang | !webcam | MrPink | 13:34 |
| ubottu | MrPink: Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras | 13:34 |
| krabador | bazhang, i neet to do it from terminal , for add the command in a group of && commands | 13:34 |
| gogeta1 | metalgeek: i beleve the network manager works with ad-hoc now | 13:34 |
| kyle_ | anyone know of any bootable applications that will allow me to create an image of a HDD as raw (Like DD but bootable) | 13:35 |
| ashiswin | TuxSax, I tried and everything disappeared >.< | 13:35 |
| MrPink | bazhang: Thanks I will check it iout | 13:35 |
| ashiswin | i killed the process and it came back to the thing with 2 vol controls | 13:35 |
| TuxSax | ashiswin: don't panic | 13:35 |
| natex | krabador: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/CommandLine | 13:35 |
| MrPink | bazhang: Although cheese works out of the box | 13:35 |
| coz_ | whiskers75, ok let me suggest something if its possible... there is a minimal install cd which is very cool in that is downloads and installs ALL current updates during the install procedure... you can also choose which install like kubuntu-desktop or edubuntu-desktop with spacebar being the key that ticks the box and arrows for scrolling through the options | 13:35 |
| krabador | thanx natex | 13:36 |
| TuxSax | ashiswin: you need to reboot after doing the command I said | 13:36 |
| whiskers75 | i might be able to do that | 13:36 |
| coz_ | whiskers75, I would suggest downloading that iso and burning it at the 2x speed | 13:36 |
| ashiswin | ok | 13:36 |
| whiskers75 | ok thanks for the help | 13:36 |
| coz_ | whiskers75, just remember that Space bar will put an x in the box and the arrows scroll through the options | 13:36 |
| ashiswin | but if the terminal closes, wouldnt it go back to the old settings again TuxSax? | 13:36 |
| TuxSax | ashiswin: run the command, then reboot, and come back, I'll wait for you to | 13:36 |
| ashiswin | ok | 13:36 |
| whiskers75 | thanks i will try that later | 13:36 |
| coz_ | whiskers75, dont over do the choices... I also suggest edubuntu for its nice integration of kde and gnome libraries | 13:37 |
| TuxSax | I want you to start from the default, the default doesn't have two sound applets | 13:37 |
| whiskers75 | maybe.... i quite like plain ubuntu or kubuntu | 13:37 |
| Turbolinux | Can you answer my question? Thank you. | 13:37 |
| kyle_ | anyone know of any bootable applications that will allow me to create an image of a HDD as raw (Like DD but bootable) | 13:37 |
| coz_ | whiskers75, the choice of Edubuntu-desktop is plain gnome | 13:37 |
| whiskers75 | ok I might do that | 13:38 |
| coz_ | whiskers75, it just incorporates kde libraries and actually runs faster than ubuntu itself | 13:38 |
| madrid | I just want a program that detects the camera I was using wine programs. | 13:38 |
| whiskers75 | clever... now i definetly will do that! | 13:38 |
| coz_ | whiskers75, so when the time comes on that cd to choose ONLY choose Edubuntu-desktop and I dont think you will be disappointed | 13:38 |
| TuxSax | Turbolinux: what's your question? | 13:38 |
| whiskers75 | ok | 13:38 |
| ashiswin | TuxSax, it didnt work | 13:38 |
| coz_ | whiskers75, it is ubuntu in everyway :) | 13:38 |
| whiskers75 | :) | 13:38 |
| coz_ | whiskers75, i and I have switched to it permanently just this past 2 weeks :) | 13:39 |
| TuxSax | ashiswin: hold on, we'll try something else | 13:39 |
| whiskers75 | good | 13:39 |
| ashiswin | thans TuxSax | 13:39 |
| Turbolinux | TuxSax: Is there anyone who use Toshiba NB200 computer with 3G function? This is my question? | 13:39 |
| Turbolinux | . | 13:39 |
| ZykoticK9 | ashiswin, again "indicator-sound" | 13:39 |
| ashiswin | how do u remove that ZykoticK9? | 13:40 |
| ZykoticK9 | ashiswin, one way is "sudo apt-get remove indicator-sound", another is Synaptic or Ubuntu Software Center | 13:40 |
| TuxSax | ashiswin: the notification area has a sound indicator, right? | 13:40 |
| TuxSax | so where the other sound indicator came from? | 13:40 |
| ashiswin | yea tuxsax | 13:40 |
| TuxSax | can you right click on it and then remove it? | 13:40 |
| ashiswin | its from the indicator applet | 13:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | ashiswin, that will remove the mail icon as well | 13:41 |
| ashiswin | ones in the notification, ones in the idicator. the indicator was default | 13:41 |
| madrid | I just want a program that detects the webcam while using wine programs. | 13:41 |
| Mjuksel | hi guys | 13:41 |
| ashiswin | but ZykoticK9, i wanna keep the mail icon cos my chat and stuff r there | 13:41 |
| ringods | Hello, I hope someone can help me out with a networking issue. | 13:41 |
| Mjuksel | i have a question :O | 13:42 |
| ringods | lshw -class network reports my eth0 as DISABLED. | 13:42 |
| TuxSax | Turbolinux: sorry, I can't help you there | 13:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | ashiswin, then the right click remove won't work, just my uninstall command | 13:42 |
| ringods | ifconfig doesn't report eth0. How can I get that interface enabled again? | 13:42 |
| Mjuksel | is there any program to show xchat or other irc program on desktop like a wallpaper widget ? | 13:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | ashiswin, s/just my/just use my | 13:42 |
| ashiswin | but will that remove both of the vol controls ZykoticK9? | 13:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | ashiswin, not my uninstall command no | 13:42 |
| hporse | hi. did anyone in here test the youtube-dl script? it is broken on my system since like a week or so. it always says here are no available formats (for any video). anyone in here for whom the script still works? | 13:42 |
| ashiswin | ok im doing it ZykoticK9 | 13:43 |
| coz_ | Mjuksel, well I know cairo dock has an xchat plugin that can be set onto the desktop like a screenlet or widget | 13:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | hporse, you need to use a new version NOT in the repo | 13:43 |
| Khannz | Guys, how I can restrict access for a user so he can't go anywhere except homedir? | 13:43 |
| ZykoticK9 | hporse, i fixed the same issue yesterday ;) | 13:43 |
| Mjuksel | is there any program to show xchat or other irc program on desktop like a wallpaper widget ? | 13:43 |
| TuxSax | ringods: open terminal and run cat /etc/networking/interfaces | 13:43 |
| coz_ | Mjuksel, you could check to see if screenlets have applications for this | 13:43 |
| Mjuksel | ah yeah | 13:44 |
| Mjuksel | lemme try | 13:44 |
| coz_ | Mjuksel, http://www.screenlets.org/index.php/Home | 13:44 |
| ringods | TuxSax: "auto eth0" followed by "iface eth0 inet dhcp" | 13:44 |
| Mjuksel | k tnx ill have a look | 13:44 |
| Mjuksel | im a bit new @ ubuntu :p | 13:44 |
| coz_ | Mjuksel, http://screenlets.org/index.php/Category:UserScreenlets | 13:44 |
| ringods | TuxSax: mac address in udev rules match | 13:44 |
| kyle_ | anyone know of any bootable applications that will allow me to create an image of a HDD as raw (Like DD but bootable) | 13:44 |
| hporse | ZykoticK9: ok, thanks. isn't it odd that no one opened a bug report yet? | 13:44 |
| ZykoticK9 | hporse, run "youtube-dl -v" and be sure it says "2010.07.24" - FYI i havne't figured out how to use "youtube-dl -b BLAH" in the new version | 13:44 |
| coz_ | Mjuksel, you would..of course...have to install screenlets with sudo apt-get install screenlets first | 13:45 |
| ZykoticK9 | hporse, there are at least 2 bugs i believe | 13:45 |
| TuxSax | ringods: that looks OK, how about the network manager applet? can you right click it ? | 13:45 |
| ashiswin | umm ZykoticK9, that removed the wrong one | 13:45 |
| coz_ | Mjuksel, it comes with a dozen or so default screenlets for you to test | 13:45 |
| Mjuksel | i have screenlets installed thank you ;) | 13:45 |
| ashiswin | Is there one called notifier-sound or smth like that? | 13:45 |
| === bac` is now known as bac | ||
| MikeChelen | can anyone recommend a gui for webcam recording? a middle ground between cheese (too simple) and vlc (too complex) would be great | 13:45 |
| ZykoticK9 | ashiswin, indicator-sound is the NEW one | 13:45 |
| ringods | TuxSax: ubuntu lucid server i386, so no network manager (I suppose). Similar amd64 setup works like a charm | 13:45 |
| ringods | for the record: both VBox virtual machines | 13:46 |
| ashiswin | ZykoticK9, when i ran that, it removed the default one instead of the one in the notification panel | 13:46 |
| coz_ | MikeChelen, mmm recording from web cam? let me check | 13:46 |
| dubey | hello | 13:46 |
| TuxSax | oh, sorry, you would better ask question like this at #ubuntu-server, then | 13:46 |
| lux` | can someone write lucs? | 13:46 |
| ringods | TuxSax: ok, I'll hop over... | 13:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | ashiswin, sorry i thought that's what you wanted. reinstall indictor-sound and remove the Gnome Sound one instead | 13:46 |
| coz_ | MikeChelen, I think Cheese can record from the webcam | 13:46 |
| ashiswin | oo ok ZykoticK9, what do i type for Gnome Sound? | 13:47 |
| cypher-neo | MikeChelen, have you tried mencoder? | 13:47 |
| MikeChelen | coz_: yup thats right, it has very few preferences though such as file format or bitrate (also it has been crashing for me) | 13:47 |
| bazhang | MikeChelen, camorama may be worth a try as well | 13:47 |
| === ring1 is now known as ring0 | ||
| coz_ | MikeChelen, or better yet webcamstudio | 13:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | ashiswin, not sure, do you remember how you added it? | 13:47 |
| ashiswin | i added a notification area. it came along with that. i did nothing else | 13:48 |
| MikeChelen | cypher-neo: is there a gui for mencoder? been using it from command line, but too unknowledgeable to get desired results | 13:48 |
| bazhang | MikeChelen, winff | 13:48 |
| cypher-neo | MikeChelen: AFAIK, it's strictly command line. | 13:48 |
| Mjuksel | hmm i dont really see an IRC screenlet :( | 13:48 |
| coz_ | MikeChelen, http://www.ws4gl.org/ | 13:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | bazhang, technically winff is a frontend to ffmpeg not mencoder | 13:48 |
| bazhang | ZykoticK9, yep | 13:48 |
| MikeChelen | bazhang: camorama keeps giving me an error "could not connect to video device (/dev/video0). Please check connection" even though /dev/video0 works fine with mplayer and vlc | 13:49 |
| bazhang | I'd give camorama a shot | 13:49 |
| Khannz | Guys, how I can restrict access for a user so he can't go anywhere except homedir? | 13:49 |
| bazhang | Khannz, create a guest account? | 13:50 |
| MikeChelen | coz_: will try webcamstudio again, it seems to max my cpu causing encoding problems | 13:50 |
| ashiswin | ZykoticK9, any luck? | 13:50 |
| Khannz | bazhang: I'm not sure - how? | 13:50 |
| Mjuksel | btw i LOVEEE ubuntu | 13:50 |
| Mjuksel | :O | 13:50 |
| Kartagis | !xmms | 13:50 |
| ubottu | xmms is no longer being developed, see http://bugs.debian.org/461309 for more details. Consider using audacious, bmpx, or xmms2 instead. | 13:50 |
| Kartagis | !xmms2 | 13:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | ashiswin, sorry i stopped looking... | 13:50 |
| Mjuksel | cant seem to find any irc screenlets though :( | 13:50 |
| bazhang | Kartagis, try audacious | 13:50 |
| MikeChelen | bazhang: will winff capture from webcam? | 13:51 |
| Kartagis | bazhang I'm looking for something that I can broadcast from | 13:51 |
| ZykoticK9 | ashiswin, is gnome-volume-manager installed on your system? | 13:51 |
| ashiswin | oh. well, can someone help me then? I have a volume control icon in the notification area and i wanna remove it | 13:51 |
| ashiswin | ZykoticK9: Hmm, i'm not sure | 13:51 |
| Epcylon | Nobody has any idea why the old style init scripts are no longer being run? | 13:52 |
| Khannz | I tried "adduser --home <%pathofinterest%> --no-create-home <%username%> | 13:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | ashiswin, in terminal "apt-cache policy gnome-volume-manager" | 13:52 |

| donato | jin #ubuntu | 13:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | Anyone know the name of the old Gnome Volume Control? NOT the idicator-sound one. | 13:53 |
| bazhang | MikeChelen, seems mencoder will then you can convert with ffmpeg (winff) if needed | 13:53 |
| donato | join #ubuntu | 13:53 |
| bazhang | donato, you are here | 13:53 |
| MikeChelen | bazhang: ok, maybe i will stick with mencoder for the capturing then. i just can't get it to output .ogv | 13:54 |

| juboba | mmmm | 13:57 |
| andre | you know install the broffice ? | 13:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | Khannz, just an FYI but if you limit a user account to ONLY home directory, there will no (or very few) commands available to that user | 13:57 |
| ashiswin | ZykoticK9, i added a startup app with the command "killall gnome-volume-control-applet" and now it doesnt open anymore :-) | 13:57 |
| Khannz | ZykoticK9: so no ssh for them? | 13:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | ashiswin, killall just closes a command | 13:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | Khannz, doubt it as ssh is in /usr/bin i imagine | 13:58 |
| andre | Who know to install the broffice for ubuntu ? | 13:59 |
| dubey | anyone ? | 13:59 |
| ashiswin | Yea but it works ZykoticK9 :) | 13:59 |
| Khannz | ZykoticK9: no-no, I mean that since I can't limit user to read FS - I can't give him ssh access? | 13:59 |
| bazhang | andre, what is broffice | 13:59 |
| ZykoticK9 | Khannz, what you are basically talking about is a change-root environment, i haven't played with that stuff much so i really don't know for sure. Best of luck man. | 14:00 |
| andre | its like microsoft office for windows. do you know ? | 14:00 |
| Khannz | ZykoticK9: kk mate. ty anyway | 14:00 |
| bazhang | andre, open office? | 14:00 |
| andre | yes, but brasilian version | 14:01 |
| gogeta1 | bazhang: lol i was wating for that | 14:01 |
| Kartagis | what's the xmms2 graphical package? | 14:01 |
| bazhang | andre, just install the language packs | 14:01 |
| jrib | Kartagis: apt-cache search -n xmms2 | 14:01 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kartagis, xmm2 is a client/server situation, there are various GUI/CLI front ends in the repo i believe | 14:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | s/xmm2/xmms2 | 14:02 |
| gogeta1 | xmm2 xmms is ciompletly the wrong direction | 14:02 |
| Kartagis | ZykoticK9 can you name one? | 14:02 |

| slinker1 | monaco is the default font i think | 14:10 |
| davix | is there a dpkg/apt command that will return 0 if a package exists and something else otherwise? | 14:11 |
| slinker1 | and according to wikipedia n Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard, Monaco was replaced as the default Terminal font by Menlo, a font based on Bitstream Vera Sans Mono, like the popular font DejaVu Sans Mono.[1] However, Monaco remains preloaded on all Snow Leopard systems. | 14:11 |
| ZykoticK9 | davix, could "apt-cache search PACKAGENAME" work? Goog luck man. | 14:13 |
| schlaftier | Interesting. I was so fond of Monaco that I use it in xterm on Linux, now Apple themselves make another font the default | 14:14 |
| shiv | I installed kubuntu-desktop I restarted and now when I log out and log in I do not get the choice of using kdm. No options are shown at the login screen. Any ideas? | 14:14 |
| ZykoticK9 | shiv, click on your username first, then you should get a Session option at the bottom | 14:15 |
| gogeta1 | shiv: click the session spot rhen change it to kde | 14:15 |
| gogeta1 | then | 14:15 |
| shiv | ZykoticK9, gogeta1 I do not get the session option at all. Its no where | 14:16 |
| gogeta1 | shiv: right at the login screen | 14:16 |
| ZykoticK9 | shiv, are you using 10.04? and did you click on your username? | 14:16 |
| shiv | gogeta1, yep its not there | 14:16 |
| davix | ZykoticK9: it will search for it, i want to know if it is installed | 14:16 |

| gogeta1 | Kangarooo: sometimes there spelled diffrent sometimes they got updated and its looking for a out of date no longer exesting package etc apt-get update normaly fixes something you knoe thats there and getting a not found error | 14:28 |
| ZykoticK9 | Kangarooo, "ubuntu-bug apt-get" is incorrect, but I'm not sure what package has apt-get... still searching. | 14:28 |
| k0sh | philinux: yay, thanks | 14:28 |
| Turbolinux | Does Ubuntu recognize Ericsson F3507g mobile broadband device? | 14:29 |

| ZykoticK9 | Kangarooo, i'm guessing "ubuntu-bug apt" might be what your looking for. Not 100% sure mind you ;) | 14:30 |
| gogeta1 | ZykoticK9: he lost apt-get? | 14:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | gogeta1, no he wants to report a bug | 14:30 |

| === si_tu_si_yo is now known as chico_malo | ||
| gogeta1 | ZykoticK9: just means the repos dont have what hes looking for | 14:31 |
| ZykoticK9 | gogeta1, "ubuntu-bug apt-get" does not work, because apt-get is not a package name... | 14:32 |
| gogeta1 | ZykoticK9: hua | 14:32 |
| lethario1 | Hey, how do I properly exit from X, and drop to just a terminal? | 14:32 |
| Oer | apt-utils do exist in the main repo | 14:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | lethario1, "sudo service gdm stop" | 14:32 |
| gogeta1 | yea i think you only need to install that | 14:33 |
| lethario1 | ZykoticK9: Thank you very much :) | 14:33 |
| lethario1 | ZykoticK9: Returns "Fake initctl called, doing nothing" I'm on 9.10, if that matters. | 14:33 |
| ZykoticK9 | lethario1, 9.10 "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" | 14:34 |
| gogeta1 | ZykoticK9: if he broke apt-gethe needs do download the deb manuly to restore it | 14:34 |
| TuxSax | lethario1: you can just switch to a terminal without exiting the GUI | 14:34 |
| Kangarooo | ZykoticK9: apt also isnt working | 14:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | gogeta1, apt-get is NOT missing, just trying to report a bug | 14:34 |
| TuxSax | use ALT+CTRL+F1 | 14:34 |
| handjob | Hi. I would like Eye of Gnome to display pictures in the order that they are presented in directory. How can I do that? | 14:34 |
| lethario1 | ZykoticK9: It tells me to use "service gdm stop" instead >_< | 14:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | gogeta1, sorry "apt also isn't working" | 14:35 |
| TuxSax | to get back to GUI use ALT+F7 | 14:35 |
| ZykoticK9 | lethario1, ? | 14:35 |
| lethario1 | TuxSax: Unfortunately that's not enough, I need exlusive right's to the GPU. I need X to terminate | 14:35 |
| gogeta1 | ZykoticK9: often if something failed to install dpkg -f installl should resume it | 14:35 |
| TuxSax | OK, once on that terminal you can stop the GDM service with "sudo service gdm stop" | 14:36 |
| gogeta1 | ZykoticK9: i beleve thats the fix command | 14:36 |
| hemza | HERE https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup i do not find how to detect built-in bluetooth device ... plz help me | 14:36 |
| ZykoticK9 | gogeta1, i'm not the one with the issue! Kangarooo has the issue. | 14:36 |
| lethario1 | sudo /etc/init.d/gpm stop returns: "Rather that invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8) utility, e.g. service gdm stop" | 14:36 |
| lethario1 | TuxSax: I'll try it, thanks | 14:36 |
| ZykoticK9 | gogeta1, i use "sudo apt-get -f install" not sure if dpkg does the same (probably does) | 14:36 |
| lethario1 | TuxSax / ZykoticK9: Unfortunately neither command works from ALT+F1 terminal either | 14:37 |
| lethario1 | They just return the same (error) messages | 14:37 |
| ZykoticK9 | lethario1, what is the error? | 14:37 |
| HukuTa | hello | 14:38 |
| ZykoticK9 | lethario1, sorry i see it above. | 14:38 |
| lethario1 | ZykoticK9: using service, I get "Warning: Fake initctl called, doing nothing." | 14:38 |
| lethario1 | ZykoticK9: Ok :) | 14:38 |
| gogeta1 | ZykoticK9: been a wile sence i ahd to resort to dpkg but i knoe like apt if you try to install someting it will say hey stop run this first to fix the broken packages | 14:38 |
| TuxSax | lethario1: do you have proper user rights? | 14:39 |
| TuxSax | are you in a terminal after using ALT+CTRL+F1 ? | 14:39 |
| lethario1 | TuxSax: Well, it's a new install, that I did myself, there's only my account. | 14:39 |
| lethario1 | TuxSax: Yes, black white thingie, 400x300 resolution, ugly | 14:40 |
| gogeta1 | ZykoticK9: and recover from a failed upgarde or a interrupted one | 14:40 |
| TuxSax | lethario1: you should be dropped to a console terminal when using ALT+CTRL+F1 | 14:40 |
| TuxSax | and then are you logged in with your user there? | 14:40 |
| lethario1 | TuxSax: No, I had to login on that one too | 14:40 |
| TuxSax | lethario1: that's what I asked, if you did log in already | 14:41 |
| lethario1 | TuxSax: I can "sudo su" to root, service gdm stop still does nothing | 14:41 |
| TuxSax | lethariol, try first to do sudo -i, then when prompted put you password | 14:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | lethario1, don't use "sudo su"! | 14:41 |
| erUSUL | lethario1: sudo stop gdm | 14:41 |
| DiploCat | try: gdm-stop | 14:41 |
| lethario1 | TuxSax: Oh, sorry, yes, I logged in ^^ | 14:41 |
| DiploCat | one command | 14:41 |
| erUSUL | !rootshell | lethario1 | 14:41 |
| ubottu | lethario1: Using !sudo with single commands is preferable in most circumstances. However, if you really need a root shell, use « sudo -i » (other variants of this commands are redundant and/or potentially dangerous) | 14:41 |
| DiploCat | lethario1, sudo gdm-stop | 14:41 |
| kryptyk | Lethario: take a look here. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1359292 Similar issue - solution was given in the last post. Hope this helps | 14:42 |

| lethario1 | DiploCat: I did, but it just starts right up again >_< | 14:46 |
| gogeta1 | Kangarooo: sounds like a bad update and it broke apt-get sometimes you can reconver it by running sudo dpkg --configure -a | 14:46 |
| erUSUL | progre55: /etc/init.d/skeleton ? init.d are systemV init scripts plenty of how tros on them | 14:46 |
| erUSUL | progre55: the one that has no docs is upstart ;P | 14:46 |

| lazybugis | hello guys | 14:49 |
| iceroot_ | !sudo | frxstrem | 14:49 |
| ubottu | frxstrem: sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli ) . Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 14:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | frxstrem, it's called sudo (just joking). What are you trying to do? | 14:49 |
| Genk1 | hello | 14:49 |
| jrib | ZykoticK9: isn't sudo exactly that? | 14:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | jrib, yes | 14:50 |
| Kangarooo | gogeta1: ok btw bug in apt-get is it shows wrong percentage when updating sources list.. so i want to report about it. using ubuntu-bug packagename and package is apt-get | 14:50 |
| jrib | Kangarooo: there's no such thing as an "apt-get" package | 14:51 |
| frxstrem | iceroot_, ZykoticK9: I'm looking for something like sudo, but I am using a PHP script and I do not want to have to call sudo in a shell whenever I want to do some root stuff | 14:51 |
| Kangarooo | jrib: so how then ubuntu-bug about apt-get? ubuntu-bug apt and apt-utils didnt work | 14:51 |
| jrib | Kangarooo: never used ubuntu-bug | 14:51 |
| lethario1 | Gah, ubuntu is _too_ userfriendly these days ^^ | 14:51 |
| gogeta1 | Kangarooo: i belev its just filed under apt | 14:52 |
| jrib | Kangarooo: how does "ubuntu-bug apt" not work? | 14:52 |
| Kangarooo | gogeta1: i already wrote that ubuntu-bug apt shows its not ubuntu pakage.. so it doesnt | 14:52 |
| DiploCat | lol lethario1... still can't stop gdm? have you checked to see what's running in all the terms... ie. Alt+F7 & ALT+F8? | 14:52 |
| DiploCat | lethario1, maybe there's some X config prompt hanging about!? | 14:53 |

| gogeta1 | frxstrem: yea not wrong there linux is secure but if you just leave the door open for attack then you ask for it | 15:01 |
| k0sh | frxstrem: for scripting use shell scripts in bash or ruby, dont use python, since its not a standart | 15:02 |
| bazhang | argyle, devede | 15:02 |
| iceroot_ | k0sh: of course python is a standard, you mean dont use php for cli-scripting | 15:02 |

| k0sh | frxstrem: or perl since perl is more widespread and accepted as standart for scripts thann python | 15:02 |
| erUSUL | k0sh: neither ruby ( even less so than pythin if you ask me) bash, awk and perl | 15:02 |

| lorenz | ABBADON, hmm... have you tried using a livecd and start gparted from the CD? | 15:03 |
| ABBADON | lorenz, No, could I use an 8.04 live CD with a 10,04 install? | 15:04 |
| gogeta1 | k0sh: the sudo thing i sided with but im not gonna tell the guy how to make his own programs | 15:04 |

| lorenz | ABBADON, well im not really sure if gparted got updated. since you are only formating a drive it shouldn't be a problem though... | 15:05 |
| DiploCat | lethario1, do: 'ps ax | grep gdm' then: 'kill <pids>' - there will be X and gdm-session and I think one or two more... then do 'ps ax' again, they should all die | 15:05 |
| gogeta1 | hporse: youtube dl script lol only a half a million sites programs and url hacks do it aruldy | 15:05 |
| k0sh | iceroot_: it is offtopic, but php isnt evil, its faster to write proper stuff than perl because lots of helper functions , but all depends on who is writing it | 15:05 |

| roders | hi all | 15:09 |
| roders | is there a way to download the updates / upgrades of ubuntu on a usb drive? | 15:09 |
| erUSUL | !offline | 15:10 |
| ubottu | If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script. Alternatively, try http://apt.alturl.com/ - See also !APTonCD | 15:10 |
| randy_ | swiss-chris: did you add your user to the www-data group? | 15:10 |
| gogeta1 | erUSUL: i was asking abought all the updates | 15:10 |
| swiss-chris | randy: yes | 15:10 |
| gogeta1 | he sorry | 15:11 |
| erUSUL | gogeta1: see aptoncd ? | 15:11 |
| hporse | gogeta1: this is the only CLI for youtube i am aware of. and also, youtube-dl is at least 2 years old i'd say. | 15:11 |
| randy_ | swiss-chris: then, you can just change the whole /var/www to a 664 thereby giving the www-data group write privileges | 15:11 |
| gogeta1 | erUSUL: and its a good one how would you pull only the updates and not the entire repo | 15:11 |
| Steve973 | erUSUL, ebox installs fine on an existing installation, too? | 15:12 |
| randy_ | swiss-chris: cd /var/www; chmod -R 664 ./* | 15:12 |
| erUSUL | Steve973: i guess; never used it myself | 15:12 |
| erUSUL | gogeta1: make a clean install in a vm for example. do an upgrade and use aptoncd to get all the upgrades in a iso | 15:12 |
| JenniferB | how do I chmod a directory to read and write ? | 15:13 |
| JenniferB | and all files in it ( its for a git repository ) | 15:13 |
| gogeta1 | erUSUL: hell then you just invoke the download only command in apt and copy em over | 15:13 |
| erUSUL | JenniferB: chmod -R +rw folder/ | 15:14 |
| randy_ | JenniferB: you just use the -R flag for recursive change | 15:14 |
| roders | JenniferB: chmod -R 777 /path/to/folder/ | 15:14 |
| erUSUL | roders: why you add execute ? | 15:14 |
| JenniferB | ook ... you think I need other permissions as well.. or will that suffice ? delete ? execture ? | 15:15 |
| Dr_Willis | to access a directory fully it has toi be 'executable' | 15:15 |
| erUSUL | JenniferB: no rw is enough | 15:15 |
| Dr_Willis | if you want others to have rights inside the dir. | 15:15 |
| yabuk | Thunderbird uses too space of my HD, then I've removed all accounts and completely removed Thunderbird, but I didn't get free space. how do I completely delete Thunderbird files and the files it've downloaded ? | 15:16 |

| Dr_Willis | yabuk: removing the thunderbird progarm via the package manager will not delete the users various thunderbird configs/caches. Not sure what you mean by 'removed all acounts' | 15:16 |
| JenniferB | erUSUL: It's on our company server... I created a new repo.. and I am getting a fatal thing.. and cannot commit to it... I alos created it with sudo ... because I didn't have the permissions to create it | 15:17 |

| DiploCat | roders, apt-get -d or apt-get --download-only will download the packages without installing them and put them in /var/cache - but ubottu's idea about APTonCD is probably better | 15:25 |

| juro | erUSUL, is that recursive? | 15:31 |
| randy_ | gnome: your problem seems to be with the RouterOS, not Ubuntu. | 15:31 |
| swiss-chris | randy: o.k. I wasn't sure the directory permissions needed to be the same. In any case, I ran that command and now get the following error log message: Permission denied: /var/www/{myvirtualhost}/{subdirectory}/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable | 15:31 |
| DiploCat | guyvdb_, apache2 -V (gives detailed version) | 15:31 |
| gnome | RaNdY, no i asker the router owner he told he didnt change any configuration | 15:32 |
| swiss-chris | So far I've only gotten access to my files after setting full permissions for "other" (via the graphical interface - I guess that's pretty much 777 on files and directories) | 15:32 |
| randy_ | swiss-chris: you can, if you want, just blank upgrade the permissions to make it work, i.e. cd /var/www; sudo chmod 775 ./* | 15:32 |

| swiss-chris | randy: I agree - I want to make it as restrictive as possible and as permissive as necessary. | 15:37 |

| EvilPhoenix | Varazir: ah, i dont think its anything to really worry about, i get 100s of ARP requests either my IP or just normal traffic on my network all the time. ARP requests arent really going to pwn you | 16:33 |

| sipior | koruptid: you can modify the "start on" stanza of /etc/init/gdm.conf, to prevent it from being started automatically. | 16:34 |
| ^peanut^ | Varazir: all the arp's that you see are from the broadcast address on the network. it's normal to see alot. | 16:34 |
| koruptid | sipor: what directive can be set for that? "start on false"? | 16:35 |
| sipior | koruptid: alternatively, modify the "stop on" stanza to include other runlevels. | 16:35 |
| Jinxed- | I just started using flumotion and when I do ps -ef | grep flu I see that there are alot of flumotion processes running after I close it down... how do I kill all of them at once? | 16:35 |

| koruptid | sipior: I still want to be able to start gdm manually... this is for ubuntu-server... I occasionally need a gui for a few things but try to keep it console 99% of the time | 16:36 |
| sipior | koruptid: right. | 16:36 |
| ^peanut^ | koruptid: why not just run vnc server on your ubuntu-server, and attach to it from remote? | 16:36 |
| sipior | koruptid: be sure to have a look at the man page: "man 5 init" | 16:37 |
| ^peanut^ | koruptid: or you could run freenx (which is by far alot faster than vnc). | 16:37 |
| koruptid | ^peanut^: because that would require that gdm is running 100% of the time | 16:37 |
| Micheal` | did this last update blow up X for anyone else? | 16:37 |
| koruptid | ^peanut^: I don't want xorg to start at all unless I explicitly tell it to | 16:37 |
| ^peanut^ | koruptid: gotcha | 16:38 |
| sipior | koruptid: you don't need X running at all, if you only intend to run clients that will connect to your local X server. | 16:38 |
| ^peanut^ | koruptid: what apps do you need to use when you logon to the server and run the gui? | 16:38 |

| profxavier | ah, its an incorrect IP | 16:50 |
| profxavier | thats my issue | 16:50 |
| faltu | main point is that even if someone takes over a root process, if the system policy does not allow to access some object | 16:50 |
| jstoone | philinux: yea it's a habbit of mine to do read the man pages before asking further (: thanks | 16:50 |
| profxavier | so gateway and network -should not- have the same IP ? | 16:50 |
| faltu | say /etc/password file then it cannot be accessed | 16:50 |

| bad_cables | or create one from a dir? | 16:54 |
| ^peanut^ | bad_cables: you could create a folder with the name "f:\" | 16:54 |

| bad_cables | what does samba do? | 16:54 |
| ^peanut^ | bad_cables: it's a windows like server for linux. | 16:55 |
| erUSUL | bad_cables: implements CIFS | 16:55 |

| bad_cables | but samba wont make an f:\ possible? | 16:55 |
| k0sh | faltu: and playing with my kitty :P | 16:55 |
| bad_cables | i mean... basically i would have to change thousands and thousands of references | 16:55 |
| WaltzingAlong | bad_cables: yes there is a way to mount it. it can show up as /media/windows_f/projects/crap/airportdrawings for example. but you just want to toss files there? does it have to be seen as "F:\"? are you running a CAD program inside ubuntu that will be looking for the file at F:\...? then just configure wine to call that directory/mount F | 16:56 |

| profxavier | im still getting 0.197 as an IP | 16:57 |
| bad_cables | like... f:\windowscrap\whatever | 16:57 |
| bad_cables | and i would have to change each one manually | 16:57 |
| ^peanut^ | bad_cables: ok, you could put the f:\ folder in / | 16:58 |
| faltu | gotta go guys | 16:58 |
| bad_cables | hmm. | 16:58 |
| sipior | profxavier: interfaces in /etc/network/interfaces should be ignored by Network Manager. | 16:58 |
| bad_cables | let me try that | 16:58 |
| profxavier | sipior, that doesn't explain my mis-assigned IP | 16:58 |
| bad_cables | wont matter the direction of the "\" ? | 16:58 |
| ^peanut^ | bad_cables: cd /; mkdir "f:\\"; chown youruserid:yourgroupid /"f:\\" | 16:58 |
| profxavier | yeah, still there | 16:59 |
| sipior | profxavier: have you brought then interface down and back up again since making your changes? | 16:59 |

| MikeHoncho | I have a Nortel USB Mobile Headset that's not working. Can't seem to find any answers on The Online. | 18:29 |
| terry_ | yup | 18:29 |
| MikeHoncho | Just get a flash of light when I plug it in, then nothing. | 18:30 |
| milen8204 | How i can change my mac address ? | 18:30 |
| ActionParsnip | MikeHoncho: run: lsusb ,you can websearch for the 8 character hex id for guides | 18:30 |
| terry_ | Pici,yeah on paper | 18:30 |
| Pici | terry_: Download and print it out then. I highly suggest you don't though. It would be a large waste of paper. | 18:30 |
| Tictoon | Hi, my right click randomly changed to from right mouse button to middle mouse button. now right click does nothing afaik, and mmb is my right click, how do I change it back? | 18:30 |
| MikeH | wow | 18:30 |
| MikeH | thats annoying | 18:30 |
| ActionParsnip | milen8204: I know how in /etc/network/interfaces | 18:30 |
| terry_ | Can I order it from canonical?Pici | 18:31 |
| milen8204 | ActionParsnip, i tried but i couldn`t wria any word there | 18:31 |
| Pici | terry_: No. | 18:31 |
| milen8204 | what should ido | 18:31 |
| ActionParsnip | milen8204: not sure if it will stop network manager being able to manage the interface thoough | 18:31 |
| GreyFoxx | Can anyone tell me where I can find whatever sort of "list" or queue apt-get keeps around for packages to be installed? I ask because weeks ago I installed a custom kernel, and apparently despite working just fine something during the install failed, and now EVERY time I do another apt-get install it goes through the motions of reinstalling my kernel | 18:31 |
| milen8204 | ohh i see | 18:31 |
| jpds | terry_: http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/DVDs/ubuntu/10.04/release/source/ | 18:31 |
| Tictoon | can anyone even take a guess at my problem?? I have no idea what to do | 18:31 |
| userone | klappi: thanks for the link but i had already read that. elsewhere on the ether i found a 'howto' which said under 9.10 connected two laptops with a crossover cable was as simple as changing the auth eth0 settings using the edit connections gui. i have looked under places>network but that shows a folder labelled Windows Network and that doesnt connect anyway. | 18:31 |
| GreyFoxx | the kernel is in place and working just fine. I just want apt-get to stop trying to reinstall it over and over :) | 18:32 |
| terry_ | Pici,I thought they send the source code for the cost of shipping | 18:32 |
| milen8204 | ActionParsnip, I must cut out all connections | 18:32 |
| milen8204 | ?\ | 18:32 |
| MikeHoncho | ActionParsnip, You're my hero. Do I just websearch the 8 digits and ubuntu? | 18:32 |
| jpds | Pici / terry_: You can order CDs from Canonical. | 18:32 |
| ActionParsnip | milen8204: http://www.youritronics.com/how-to-set-the-mac-address-from-etcnetworkinterfaces-in-debian/ | 18:32 |
| Pici | jpds: terry_ wants the source code on paper. | 18:32 |
| djudldin | cypher-neo: im not sure but i think this problem happened in windows xp too | 18:32 |
| milen8204 | ActionParsnip, thanks | 18:32 |
| jpds | Pici: Good luck with that. | 18:33 |
| Pici | jpds: Exactly. | 18:33 |
| ActionParsnip | MikeHoncho: use something like: ubuntu 845a:7ab0 ,for example | 18:33 |
| MikeHoncho | Gotcha. Thanks! | 18:33 |
| milen8204 | I need to change my IP too :D | 18:33 |
| ActionParsnip | MikeHoncho: you'll find the make and model is moot, you need the chip inside which most times isn't made by the manufacturer of the device | 18:33 |
| MikeH | argh | 18:34 |
| MikeH | MikeHoncho: You don't fancy changing your nick to Mike_Honcho do you? :D | 18:34 |
| MikeH | Highlight fail :/ | 18:34 |

| Mike_Honcho | Sorry, registered. | 18:34 |
| MikeH | Yay, thanks :D | 18:34 |
| ActionParsnip | milen8204: you can use the interfaces to set a static ip. If you want to change your internet ip (ie. You don't use a router) then you will need to contact your provider | 18:34 |
| dustin_ | di | 18:35 |
| Mike_Honcho | Well, I'll keep it until I get kicked. | 18:35 |
| === _ng is now known as _NG | ||
| ActionParsnip | milen8204: you can change what ip you have on your own lan very freely as long as it falls into the subnet of your router (you can even change that if you want to change all of the address) but the ip you get from your provider is given to you and is out of your control | 18:36 |
| userone | auth eth0 says connection established on both laptops. where do i look to see the contects of the other laptop? i just want to transfer 100gb from one laptop to the other | 18:36 |
| shawnboy | I have dual boot Karmic & Lucid. After plugging in and setting up a router/switch yesterday, my wifi says it's connected but no connectivity. | 18:36 |
| Mike_Honcho | ActionParsnip: Well, there's no results on that 8 digits. | 18:37 |
| Mike1 | userone: scp would be the easiest way | 18:37 |
| milen8204 | ActionParsnip, I have changed my PC and my old PC had had a difren IP and MAC than new one :D | 18:37 |
| FabParma | i need to make a script to put in startup that launches "top". i can't make it, pls have a look where is the mistake http://paste.ubuntu.com/469892/ | 18:37 |
| shawnboy | and in network manager my wired connection is named ifupdown eth0. What's going on? | 18:37 |
| eigentor | I installed Ubuntu as secont OS on my machine that has a 500 GB hard disk with several NTFS partitions | 18:37 |
| Vilemaxim | I'm trying to backup an Ubuntu machine using rsnapshot, which needs a user account to backup. Is there a way to give a user world read permissions without being root? Is that what the backup system user is for? | 18:37 |
| eigentor | now one partition seems to be invisible for ubuntu | 18:37 |
| eigentor | what am I doing wrong ;) | 18:37 |
| milen8204 | I want to set my Mac and IP the same as the old PC | 18:38 |
| ActionParsnip | milen8204: that's normal. Here is how you can define ip in the interfaces file too. If you use it then network manager will NOT be able to manage the interface http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/setting-up-an-network-interfaces-file/ | 18:38 |
| racethesunlive | FabParma: couldent you use System -> Preferences -> startup programs to make top start on boot? | 18:38 |
| Mike1 | userone: otherwise samba or nfs are what you want =) | 18:38 |
| milen8204 | ActionParsnip, thanks a lot | 18:38 |
| vikasap | Hello all, I am not able to hear any sound from system. Could anyone help me please ? | 18:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Mike_Honcho: have you checked the manufacturers site? | 18:39 |
| abhijit | !sound | vikasap | 18:39 |
| ubottu | vikasap: If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 18:39 |
| userone | Mike1: i looked at that, but my laptops are connected together using a crossover cable, auth eth0 is set on both laptops to share with other computers, both running 9.10, both say connection established but i cant see the other laptop locatopm. even to use scp i need to know where to 'put' the files? | 18:40 |
| === _NG is now known as _ng | ||
| ActionParsnip | FabParma: put ampersands after each command, this will put the command to the background and will allow the other commands to rum | 18:40 |
| Mike1 | userone: are the laptops able to ping each other? | 18:40 |
| ActionParsnip | FabParma: i'd have the top command run in a different terminal or it won't work. You will background top and not see the output | 18:41 |
| === dan__ is now known as spondodge | ||
| ActionParsnip | userone: you need to set the ip addresses. | 18:41 |
| Mike1 | ActionParsnip: „connection established” means they got one, i think | 18:42 |
| ActionParsnip | userone: there is no dhcp server so there will be no ip defined | 18:42 |
| shawnboy | Why would my auto eth0 now say ifupdown eth0 and prevent wifi connectivity? | 18:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Mike1: I think that just means both txs are connected to an rx | 18:42 |
| racethesunlive | userone: share with other computers is for sharing your wireless internet connection across machines | 18:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Mike1: there is a physical connection but no logical | 18:43 |

| nfrs | hi | 18:44 |
| OpenBluntSurgery | I used wubi to install ubuntu 10.04 and it works great.. how can i remove my windows install completely | 18:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Paul: chmod +x the bin file, then run it in a terminal using sudo | 18:44 |
| nfrs | I've got a weird keyboard that doesn't have the left winkey, and has another key instead. 'xev' doesn't react to pressing that key at all. how can I make the system recognize that key as the left winkey? | 18:44 |
| OpenBluntSurgery | so i can free up the disk space? | 18:44 |
| ActionParsnip | OpenBluntSurgery: on the wubi wiki there is a how to on transfering a wubi install to a proper install | 18:44 |

| ahappydeath | why does ubuntu 10.04 only recognize 2GB of Memory for my macbook pro with 4 GB of ram? | 18:46 |
| manlymatt83 | What's a good I/O tester that I can extract to a bootable thumb drive? My ubuntu install keeps hanging on partitioning and I have tested everything but the drive. | 18:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Bisu[Shield]: make the dir $HOME/bin and you can add it to $PATH. You can then call it at will | 18:46 |
| ActionParsnip | OpenBluntSurgery: my connection is dog slow. You can probably find it before my browser loads | 18:46 |

| Mike_Honcho | Strange, it's just a usb headset. | 18:48 |
| Mike_Honcho | You'd think it'd just work. | 18:48 |
| Mike_Honcho | I guess the "u" in "Universal" is not so much. | 18:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Mike_Honcho: depends on a lot of factors really. If you just use a normal headset which plugs into the soundcard it'd just work | 18:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Mike_Honcho: company's poor support of linux | 18:49 |
| Mike_Honcho | It's Nortel. Not surprising. | 18:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Mike_Honcho: if company's supported linux like they do windows then it would just work but some refuse or don't want to | 18:50 |
| ActionParsnip | Mike_Honcho: there are even projects which say they will make drivers for them if they give information to them | 18:50 |

| Sevith | Shiba, Well...That is possible. Since the program uses integers but writes then to the table using %c and not %i ...Could that be an issue? | 19:05 |

| Shiba | not to put too blunt a point on it | 19:07 |
| ActionParsnip | userone: that's why its failing. The last octet must be different. You need to set it using network manager or the interfaces file | 19:07 |

| gregor_ | before i couldn't change the master volume | 19:19 |
| magicianlord | yeah, you have to give the -c0 command sometimes | 19:20 |
| Sevith | ahh i havent updated to 10.04 im still and 9.10 -.- | 19:20 |
| magicianlord | Sevith: stick with 9.1 | 19:20 |

| Phoshi | Hallo there, everyone! I come with a query. I'm trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 on a dell, except when I boot I can sometimes get to the initial menu screen that asks for language and so, but mostly just get a blinking _ and nothing more. I know the disc is good, it's worked in other PCs and booted up fine in a virtual machine on this PC, it's just not working if I /actually/ try and boot from it! | 19:20 |
| Sevith | planning on stayin where i am at last time i upgraded it fuxxed my whole system up | 19:20 |
| Sevith | Kinda made me mad. | 19:20 |
| gregor_ | Well there is always a first. thank you very very VERY much. | 19:21 |
| ActionParsnip | userone: ubuntu is aimed at linux virgins. I find it bloated but it achieves its goals well | 19:21 |
| Sevith | took my sweet boot splashes and all my login looks away and made them....default :( | 19:21 |
| Phoshi | not something I have any experience with, the disc itself failing to boot, so I thought I'd pop along here and ask if anybody knows what's up? | 19:21 |
| gregor_ | now everything works perfectly. | 19:21 |
| Sevith | my first linux distro was slackware ... | 19:21 |
| magicianlord | Phoshi: checksum it | 19:21 |
| Sevith | I was so confused when i booted it up and got a black screen with a blinking cursor i thought i fucked the computer up | 19:21 |

| magicianlord | what | 19:22 |
| Sevith | -.o | 19:22 |
| Misterio | I don't think it; I used Debian, puppy and other distros, and if I use (k)ubuntu is because I want to make it easy, not because I am noob | 19:22 |

| Sasquatch7 | How do I kill firefox completely in the terminal? I've tried kill and killall but when I restart firefox it wants to reload the pages from the last session. | 19:24 |
| raubvogel | Does ubumirror's cron job is run as user ubumirror? | 19:24 |
| ActionParsnip | Sasquatch7: killall firefox | 19:25 |
| skaider | i install firestarter and i was configure the ports | 19:25 |
| skaider | but dont works | 19:25 |
| kurt | I don't see a boot menu when I start Ubuntu. | 19:25 |
| raubvogel | Er, is ubumirror's cron job run as user ubumirror? | 19:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Sasquatch7: you can check its all dead with: ps -ef | grep -i fire | 19:25 |
| kurt | How do I select between kernels? | 19:25 |
| kurt | I'm used to LILO. | 19:25 |
| kurt | I don't know Grub. | 19:25 |
| Sasquatch7 | ActionParsnip: tried that, but when I run firefox it wants to reload the pages from the last firefox session | 19:25 |
| lofiinternet | Sasquatch7: it's saving your open tabs when you close firefox, you need to configure it to not save the tabs on close | 19:25 |
| sylvana | ORKUT | 19:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Kurt: increase the time in /etc/default/grub then run; sudo update-grub . You can use lilo if you want. It is available in the repo | 19:26 |
| Pici | kurt: Hold down shift when you boot to see the Grub2 menu. | 19:26 |
| Sasquatch7 | lofiinternet: It usually doesn't save them when I use the exit button in firefox. | 19:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Sasquatch7: then tell your browser not to remember the last session | 19:26 |
| kurt | Aha, cool. Thanks. | 19:26 |
| ActionParsnip | Pici: can I pm please | 19:26 |
| Pici | ActionParsnip: Sure. | 19:26 |
| lofiinternet | Sasquatch7: What happens when you close firefox with the exit button instead of killing the process from the terminal? | 19:27 |
| dp__ | Thanks | 19:27 |
| Sevith | skaider, For your policy do you have it configured with the correct ports for incoming AND outgoing? What about your iptables have you checked it with firestarter running to make sure they are correct? And are you sure that your router/gateway or anything in between isnt switching the ports around somewhere? | 19:27 |

| ubottu | kurt: 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. | 19:32 |

| wagner | not | 19:32 |
| wagner | i do not | 19:32 |
| ActionParsnip | threefox: you mount partitions too. You can't mount drives | 19:32 |
| ActionParsnip | manlymatt83: there is no best way | 19:32 |
| ActionParsnip | manlymatt83: there is no best anything in life | 19:33 |
| manlymatt83 | ActionParsnip: What's a "good" way? I was trying to get ultimate boot CD going but there's no CDROM drive in this box. | 19:33 |
| wagner | not | 19:33 |
| manlymatt83 | I'm trying to install Ubuntu and the install is failing, so I'm trying to figure out why | 19:33 |
| magicianlord | manlymatt83: why | 19:33 |
| capleton | okay, how about this; is anyone using the latest version of urxvt? and if so, does the -title flag work for you? | 19:33 |
| manlymatt83 | it hangs at 33% during creating ext4 partition on / (and I highly doubt it will take 30 minutes to create a 500 GB partition) | 19:33 |
| gregor_ | ok htis is weird. now sound works in this account but when i switch to the other acocunt eveything is quiet again. | 19:33 |
| kurt | What does the GRUB_DEFAULT option in /etc/default/grub file do? | 19:33 |
| gregor_ | what gives? | 19:33 |
| ActionParsnip | manlymatt83: yeah dd with time could be one way. Dd to a file and time it | 19:34 |

| abhijit | :) | 19:34 |
| manlymatt83 | ActionParsnip: but that won't tell me if there are errors, right? It won't give me the reason the Ubuntu install is hanging at 33? | 19:34 |
| snowrichard | gregor_ you might want to check to see if the user is in the audio group | 19:34 |

| Matthew_ | What's the difference between edubuntu and ubuntu.......also why does Linux always confuse me.....what do you mean by "have to install ubuntu-restricted-extras for that as well as several configuration points you will make" | 20:24 |

| Mike1 | Guest55229: xinit /usr/bin/xterm -- :1 | 20:24 |
| TinFury | ilovefairuz: lemme try I know it's not sdb1 for sure | 20:24 |
| Guest55229 | Mike1: Will that be a completely bare X server? | 20:25 |
| mj8741 | ilovefairuz: that's funny, when I run mplayer from terminal it plays them - I don't get that.... | 20:25 |
| Guest55229 | ilovefairuz: (I love Fayruz too btw) | 20:25 |
| TinFury | ilovefairuz: it's not there. I have 3 scsi drives in the server and I see those but I dont see the USB drive | 20:25 |
| Mike1 | Guest55229: it will start just another xserver on display 1 (counts from 0) with xterm running in it | 20:26 |

| erUSUL | smallfoot-: becouse you have not started traducing it yet. | 20:27 |
| ilovefairuz | TinFury: is it attached? check cable and run sudo fdisk -l again | 20:27 |
| zvacet | smallfoot-: start to translate :) | 20:27 |
| TinFury | I can see the drive however using fdisk -l on my ubuntu desktop comtputer | 20:27 |

| TinFury | /dev/sdb1 1 30401 244196001 7 HPFS/NTFS | 20:28 |
| smallfoot- | whats 'tlh' short for? | 20:28 |
| TinFury | I'm assuming that's what it's supposed to look like | 20:28 |
| TinFury | That's how it looks on UBUNTU desktop. UBUNTU Server has nothing for fdisk -l other than the scsi drives that are already there | 20:29 |
| TinFury | Ubuntu desktop also automounts the drive | 20:29 |
| Pici | smallfoot-: Its the language code for klingon. No, I don't know why. | 20:29 |
| smallfoot- | oh ok | 20:29 |
| mj8741 | ilovefairuz: ok, only works with gnome mplayer - not vlc or movie player - fyi | 20:29 |
| ilovefairuz | TinFury: the server edition doesn't automount but it creates the device nodes in /dev | 20:30 |
| trism | smallfoot-: according to wikipedia, it's the first 3 characters in the klingon word for the klingon language: tlhIngan Hol | 20:30 |
| smallfoot- | Pici, ISO-693 identifier http://www.sil.org/iso639-3/documentation.asp?id=tlh | 20:30 |
| smallfoot- | ah | 20:30 |
| ilovefairuz | mj8741: there's a codec mess with it comes to MS stuff so use whatever works for ya | 20:30 |
| TinFury | ilovefairuz: Should I see the drive with fdisk -l if the device is created? | 20:30 |
| ilovefairuz | TinFury: yes and check /dev/messages | 20:31 |
| mj8741 | ilovefairuz: yeah, finding that out ... take care | 20:31 |
| smallfoot- | but klingon is not listed on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/ | 20:31 |
| smallfoot- | i mean https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu | 20:31 |
| smallfoot- | oh wait, it actually is | 20:31 |
| smallfoot- | https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+lang/tlh | 20:31 |
| smallfoot- | sweet | 20:31 |
| rww | Pici: because the klingon word for klingon is tlhIngan | 20:32 |
| TinFury | no entry in messages | 20:32 |
| slinker1 | okay i can go home i learned something today :) | 20:32 |

| captv | Hello | 20:35 |
| Matthew_ | So....how exactly do you remove programs/applications like you would with Windows? I generally just go control panel>add/remove programs every other week in windows and then defrag, how do I do those things in Ubuntu O.o Cause last time I tried to uninstall things on Ubuntu I somehow wrecked something called the kernel or something.......yes, I am a noob lol | 20:35 |

| ilovefairuz | dreamlomax: all in one line | 20:36 |
| dreamlomax | sorry | 20:36 |
| slidinghorn | Matthew_, The easiest way for new users would be either through Synaptic (System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager -- find package & mark for removal) or through Ubuntu Software Center | 20:36 |
| zvacet | Matthew_: you can uninstall packages in software center or in synaptic do not remove kernels | 20:36 |
| milen8204 | ilovefairuz, and than? | 20:36 |
| zvacet | jigal: np | 20:36 |
| Matthew_ | Mmmmkay | 20:37 |
| slidinghorn | Matthew_, as far as I know, you don't need to defrag on an ext-based filesystem :) | 20:37 |
| captv | thanx zvacet | 20:37 |
| ilovefairuz | milen8204: edit the tags and then you'll be able to select a format (bottom right corner in next dialog) | 20:37 |
| captv | Here i go with the question | 20:37 |
| hdon | my NUMPAD controls my MOUSE with NUMLOCK on or off -- please help me disable this feature i want to type numberz!!!! | 20:37 |
| Matthew_ | How is that possible O.o Doesn't the hard drive get cluttered no matter the file system? | 20:37 |
| dreamlomax | I just installed nvidia drivers and alsaupgrade, and i have sound over hdmi, but ..after each full restart of my machine, I need restart X for get sound over it | 20:37 |
| milen8204 | ilovefairuz, I saw that but i had been asked all redy | 20:37 |
| KE1HA | on Kernels, always keep one fall back kernel, but you dont need the headers. | 20:37 |
| slidinghorn | captv, here is good for beginner questions -- you can also try #ubuntu-beginners :) | 20:38 |
| jigal | i want to install this pakage: zend-server-ce-php-5.3 but get this error:http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/WCy1x5xA any idea's? | 20:38 |
| zvacet | Matthew_: read http://geekblog.oneandoneis2.org/index.php/2006/08/17/why_doesn_t_linux_need_defragmenting | 20:38 |
| milen8204 | ilovefairuz, thanks a lot | 20:38 |
| ilovefairuz | !defrag | Matthew_ | 20:38 |
| ubottu | Matthew_: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext4) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. | 20:38 |
| Sevith | i think i have like ...7 kernels :/ im a pack rat i guess lol | 20:38 |
| bastid_raZor | hdon: not sure if this will work but try: ctrl + alt + shift + numlock | 20:38 |
| winmutt | can anyone recommend a good news bin clone | 20:38 |
| hdon | bastid_raZor, :O | 20:38 |
| hdon | bastid_raZor, thank you! | 20:38 |
| KE1HA | time for a clean up then I'd say. | 20:38 |
| ilovefairuz | jigal: where's the error ? | 20:38 |
| ilovefairuz | jigal: these are package names | 20:39 |
| bastid_raZor | hdon: it worked for you? | 20:39 |
| hdon | bastid_raZor, yes! | 20:39 |
| Wavesonics | hey I'm trying to test mdadm's ability to send emails after raid checks, is there a way to just have it test the emailing without running a whole raid check? | 20:39 |
| captv | can i safely upgrade from ubuntu 9 to 10 now? I tried two months ago and i got a black screen at start up because of my intel integrated graphics card. Is that fixed now? | 20:39 |
| bastid_raZor | hdon: nice, you're welcome. | 20:39 |
| Matthew_ | And a kernel is? I just know that I killed mine playing with the software manager, that was on my old laptop tho | 20:39 |
| ilovefairuz | !kernel | Matthew_ | 20:39 |
| ubottu | Matthew_: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 20:39 |
| ZykoticK9 | captv, you'd be best to test with a LiveCD first. Good luck. | 20:39 |
| jigal | ilovefairuz: Requires installation of untrusted packages The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources. | 20:39 |
| Sevith | captv, Sometimes when you upgrade it will break your bootloader all you have to do is pop in a live CD and fix the bootloader | 20:39 |
| Sevith | captv, Its happened to me before. | 20:40 |
| KE1HA | I keep my /boot dir small, 75M or so, and that is a good reminder to clean things up and not keep allot of kernel junk hangin around. | 20:40 |
| ilovefairuz | jigal: didn't someone gave you the commands to add zend keys ? | 20:40 |
| captv | the CD on this thing is not to good so i did a usbkey install | 20:40 |
| Sevith | captv, Also too if things are messing up take the UID out of the fstab and should fix a few problems (Its what i did :/ ) | 20:40 |
| jigal | ilovefairuz: you mean these: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/LBxU1twJ | 20:41 |
| ilovefairuz | jigal: yes | 20:41 |
| Sevith | captv, Well iv you can run a live version from a usb that will work ..if not get backtrack 3? or 2 i beleive they are on version 4 but they have good detailed instructions on how to install that distro to a USB...either way just get a running distro going and check your bootloader | 20:41 |
| zvacet | captv: postoutput of lspci | grep VGA and then I believe someone will help you | 20:41 |
| captv | Do they change the ubuntu installer after release if they find bugs or does it stay the same | 20:41 |
| ilovefairuz | captv: you can fix it from usb too | 20:41 |
| jigal | ilovefairuz: i entered these commands and they went ok. After this tried to install the package but no success | 20:42 |
| Nonpython | Why does "libnet-ssleay-perl" not exist, I know it DID. | 20:42 |

| captv | I hoped i could simply run upgrade from the software manager, is there a way to find out if it is fixed without installing | 20:43 |

Screenshot at http://imagebin.org/106774 conkyrc at http://pastebin.com/JFHnjKnw I assume the problem lies in "CPU: ${goto 868}${execi 4 sensors | grep -A 0 'temp2' | cut -c15-18} ºC" as running "sensors | grep -A 0 'temp2' | cut -c15-18" in a terminal returns nothing.

| [J|F] | KE1HA: It seems that the dependencies of Ubuntu One have outrun the packages available for Jaunty. Do you think there's an alternate repository for python-configglue? | 21:01 |
| KE1HA | Yes, sounds reasonable. Have you tried this method?: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOne/Tutorials/Install#Installation%20and%20setup%20instructions%20for%20Ubuntu%209.04%20%28Jaunty%29 | 21:01 |
| trism | ZykoticK9: any reason not to use the ${acpitemp} variable instead?, otherwise as someone said the other day, you need to modify the grep to match the correct line since your output doesn't have temp2 anywhere | 21:02 |
| econdudeawesome | Lot of people here | 21:02 |
| econdudeawesome | I am using irssi for the first time--any body else use it? | 21:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | trism, it's the modifying the grep that I'd love some input on ;) | 21:02 |
| ilovefairuz | ZykoticK9: but.. there's no 'temp2' to grep from the ouput | 21:02 |
| ZykoticK9 | ilovefairuz, i agree! | 21:02 |

| trism | ZykoticK9: depends on which line you want, could replace it with 'CPU Temperature' or any of the text at the start of the lines, may need to fiddle with the cut too | 21:03 |
| econdudeawesome | samII it's dang sweet. Can emacs run from a shell also, or would vim be better? I'm considering doing away with the window environment altogether (but viewing pdf books is nice...) | 21:04 |

| jlogsdon | trism: no actually. got side tracked. did that apt-cache policy command, looks like my apt mirror (gtlib.gatech.edu) doesn't have the latest version of python (2.6.5-1ubuntu6), which is what i have installed :| | 21:05 |
| jigal | ilovefairuz: now it still didn't finish | 21:05 |
| econdudeawesome | linxeh would I lose options like auctex? I TeX in the GUI client, and it's so much better for older rigs than LyX or TexMaker | 21:05 |
| milen8204 | actionParsnip, thanks | 21:05 |
| [J|F] | KE1HA: Aye, the PPA link didn't work, so I had to add the repository/key manually, but then the link to install does not work under chrome. But it says alternatively to use synaptic to install ubuntuone-client-gnome, which has the dependency issue. | 21:05 |

| ilovefairuz | jigal: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/W4a1k1j9 | 21:07 |
| linxeh | econdudeawesome: yeah, you can switch buffers with key shortcuts | 21:07 |
| actionParsnip | whiteknight: you sure its a X5095 ? | 21:07 |
| linxeh | econdudeawesome: just like with the gui version :) | 21:07 |
| KE1HA | pandora's box :-) I dont use chrome, so I'll need to google a bit on that one. | 21:07 |
| burton` | i'm looking to disable it globally...during the login screen and after login happens | 21:07 |
| econdudeawesome | linxeh this may be a dumb question, but are there ways to view pdfs out of the x windowing system? | 21:07 |
| econdudeawesome | linxeh I guess my buffers question was really if there are more than one displayed at a time | 21:07 |
| smallfoot- | replace MBR with GPT | 21:07 |
| burton` | econdudeawesome: fbi used to do that on the frame buffer | 21:07 |
| actionParsnip | whiteknight: it's not even giving a windows driver | 21:07 |
| woble | ZykoticK9 doesnt matter.. | 21:07 |

| burton` | econdudeawesome: fbi == frame buffer image viewer | 21:08 |
| woble | Intel 965GM | 21:08 |
| woble | onboard notebook card | 21:08 |
| linxeh | econdudeawesome: yeah, there are ways of doing it on the CLI I think, but it either uses framebuffer or the svga mode. I've not tried though | 21:08 |

| coz_ | Vax_, well that is also dealt with there I believe but let me see if ther eis a pulsaudio specific channle | 21:37 |
| coz_ | Vax_, there is indeed just type /join #pulseaudio | 21:37 |
| Vax_ | <coz_>, so which one? | 21:37 |
| coz_ | Vax_, go with the #pulseaudio channel first | 21:37 |
| Vax_ | <coz_>, is there alsa+pulseaudio? | 21:37 |
| ZykoticK9 | Vax_, Pulse = alsa+pulse | 21:38 |
| coz_ | Vax_, yes ^^ | 21:38 |
| coz_ | Vax_, pulseaudio is a wrapper | 21:38 |
| Micheal` | coz_, funny enough the wife threatened me with bodily harm if i changed her back to windows | 21:38 |

| ShapeShifter499 | hi, how come the 64 bit flash isn't in the repos? | 21:41 |
| ZykoticK9 | ShapeShifter499, because Adobe recently cancelled 64bit flash might be one reason | 21:41 |
| === sshc is now known as sshc_ | ||
| ShapeShifter499 | really?? | 21:41 |
| ShapeShifter499 | I did not know that | 21:41 |

| ShapeShifter499 | know why? | 21:42 |

| ZykoticK9 | ShapeShifter499, was announced on June 11 i believe | 21:42 |
| rww | ShapeShifter499: also because they never made a stable release of it, which is why it was never added before it was canceled | 21:42 |
| ilovefairuz | ShapeShifter499: they gave no reasons | 21:42 |
| ShapeShifter499 | any plans to pick up the project in the future? | 21:42 |
| DeM0nFiRe | So anyone know how often Catalyst drivers are tested and put in the Ubuntu repository? | 21:43 |
| ilovefairuz | ShapeShifter499: it's non-Free/closed-source | 21:43 |
| Micheal` | here is a question for you, why is 64bit not recommended as a desktop day to day system? | 21:43 |
| ShapeShifter499 | oh I see | 21:43 |
| ShapeShifter499 | good point | 21:43 |
| ShapeShifter499 | I've tried the 64 bit flash and it seems pretty stable to me | 21:44 |

| claptrap | Well, damn and blast. | 22:15 |
| stukad | got this problem while playing games in ubuntu. when closing the game or wile ingame the screen just goes into sleepmode with no signal input. and sometimes the sounds just dissappers. i tryed looking trough the syslog and found out that every time this line "pulseaudio[1527]: ratelimit.c: "xxx" events suppressed" problems accure, such as the screen entering sleepmode, sounds disappares, my comp just hangs and i need to | 22:15 |
| stukad | reboot. | 22:15 |
| erUSUL | DeM0nFiRe: new versions wont appear in released versions | 22:15 |
| Synthead | so any idea how to install ubuntu remotely? I want to be able to install apt-get and dpkg on another distribution, create and mount a mount point, install the packages, touch it up, update grub, and reboot into it | 22:15 |
| pvandewyngaerde | Gnea: also thx from me for that script | 22:15 |
| Gnea | stukad: yeah, pulseaudio sucks, just disable it and try again | 22:15 |

| Gnea | niks1608: sorry, don't know what's wrong with ubottu | 22:16 |

| misreckoning | hello everyone... I have 6 GB RAM and 32bit Ubuntu, so I noticed half of my RAM is unused :P Can I install 64bit kernel over this installation (with synaptic) and will it work properly? | 22:17 |
| niks1608 | no it will not i tried | 22:17 |
| Gnea | stukad: yeah, pulseaudio is just a piece of software that operates independently of the sound driver itself, so your alsa driver will still be able to be accessed directly | 22:17 |
| KE1HA | Synthead, remote install, boot it pretty straight forward, but "Boot-Into It ? What do you me boot-into it? | 22:17 |
| Gnea | blitzo: best of luck | 22:17 |
| erUSUL | DeM0nFiRe: try with a ppa ? xorg-updates or xorg-edgers | 22:17 |

| Whitor | | | 22:19 |
| rockets | ZykoticK9, scrolling is incredibly slow for me :( | 22:19 |
| Gnea | stukad: I had that same problem with some sound apps and games awhile back. the only way around it, that I could find, was to actually prevent pulseaudio from running at all. unless you've got some weird soundcard that absolutely requires pulseaudio in order to work, you're probably better off without it | 22:19 |
| misreckoning | actionParsnip: will do try that too, thanks | 22:19 |
| Whitor | ^^ Curses based vertical line | 22:19 |
| rww | newer versions of Ubuntu install PAE kernel automatically | 22:19 |
| Vax_ | ZykoticK9, it used to be so | 22:19 |
| Gnea | niks1608: better to talk here, in case it helps someone else | 22:19 |
| stukad | Gnea: okey, gonna try it out. thank you | 22:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | Vax_, ahhh, good luck man. | 22:19 |
| rww | or, hum, maybe that's just lucid | 22:19 |
| ZykoticK9 | rww, auto PAE is just Lucid i believe | 22:20 |
| niks1608 | Gnea: ok | 22:20 |
| Gnea | stukad: why the ubuntu heads insist on pulseaudio to be run by default is beyond me | 22:20 |
| SmileyChris | bah, kernel upgraded and now compiz isn't going - i'm guessing fglrx needs some manual kick in the pants to get it going again. Any tips? | 22:20 |
| niks1608 | did used hplip does not work | 22:20 |
| KE1HA | Synthead, the easiest way I know to "remote install" is to use a PXE Server. You cna also use it formultiple versions. | 22:20 |

| Gnea | ? | 22:21 |
| actionParsnip | SmileyChris: reinstall dkms may help, or reinstall frglx driver | 22:21 |
| niks1608 | yes i did | 22:21 |

| ZykoticK9 | Andre_Gondim, system / admin / login screen | 22:21 |
| SmileyChris | actionParsnip: cheers - does this happen every kernel upgrade or have I messed something up? | 22:21 |
| niks1608 | only a driver for psc 1300 series | 22:21 |
| niks1608 | does not work | 22:21 |
| blitzo | gnea, here is how to combine them: aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' | (while read pkg ; do dpkg -l $pkg ; done ) | 22:21 |
| actionParsnip | SmileyChris: sometimes drivers dont survive the upgrade | 22:21 |
| ZykoticK9 | Gnea, i don't think you can find a gnome-based distro without Pulse anymore... | 22:21 |
| Gnea | niks1608: yeah, the 1350 and 1315 are part of that 'series' of the 1300. I've got one sitting next to me. | 22:22 |
| kevin7kal | using lucid - python 2.6.5 , ssl support seems to be missing - any clues as to what to install to enable this? e.g. socket.ssl is not there | 22:22 |

| rockets | ZykoticK9, http://www.hidpoint.com/ | 22:22 |
| niks1608 | i looked into chats and old logs but there is a problem on the 1350 | 22:23 |
| ZykoticK9 | rockets, interesting. Thanks for the link - amazing you can't just do it with default ubuntu though | 22:23 |
| niks1608 | i do look for someone with a solution | 22:23 |
| SmileyChris | actionParsnip: do I have to uninstall then reinstall, or is there a one-step way to reinstall a package? | 22:23 |
| Gnea | niks1608: really? | 22:23 |
| niks1608 | yep | 22:23 |
| Gnea | ZykoticK9: that's true - I got to the point where I will get Ubuntu installed, then rip pulseaudio out and setup the latest E17 | 22:24 |
| actionParsnip | SmileyChris: sudo apt-get --reinstall install dkms | 22:24 |

| Traveler | ubottu, that is not gonna answer my question | 22:30 |
| SmileyChris | actionParsnip: thanks, reinstalling both of those fixed everything :) | 22:31 |

| Traveler | tx bastid | 22:31 |
| niks1608 | i want to print from my laptop | 22:31 |
| Gnea | blitzo: honestly, I wouldn't even bother with backing up the packages themselves. just save a list of everything, back that text file up, then when you get the new system installed, copy the file over to the new installation and run this: for i in `cat mypackages.txt`; do j=`echo $i`; apt-get install "$j"; done | 22:32 |
| SmileyChris | actionParsnip: thanks - i would, but really I'm not sure about my system settings - I mucked around at one point with a manual install of the newest ati drivers. I have reverted to just using the ones in the repo but it's probably related to my own mess somehow :) | 22:32 |
| Gnea | blitzo: *then* upgrade | 22:32 |
| niks1608 | every thing works on my old hp printer te same way | 22:32 |
| fseek | hi @// | 22:32 |
| KE1HA | blitzo, unless yoru talking about "data" to backup, the cleanest & easiest way would be to do a fresh install to rid your system of "All The Cruft" | 22:32 |
| alberto | k onda | 22:32 |
| Gnea | niks1608: are you using swat? | 22:33 |
| DeM0nFiRe | Why does this keep freezing 0_0 I have 8 physical threads available, I would think it could manage the processes to keep them from hanging | 22:33 |
| KE1HA | additionally, you can use the Package Manager, aqfter install to rid the system of all you unwanted packages in one single oiperation. | 22:33 |
| niks1608 | what is swat | 22:33 |
| Gnea | !swat | 22:33 |
| ubottu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 22:33 |
| Gnea | that ^^ | 22:33 |
| actionParsnip | SmileyChris: no worries dude | 22:34 |
| niks1608 | no i do not | 22:34 |
| blitzo | gnea, KE1HA one more - is there a way to get a list of packages i installed myself (versus what was automatically installed by the install cd)? | 22:34 |
| Gnea | niks1608: basically it's a web-gui frontend to configuring samba. it's extremely powerful and gives you access to options you didn't know existed | 22:34 |
| Gnea | blitzo: that's a good one - I have no idea. afaik, no.. | 22:34 |
| jpk_ | I am having major problems with cryptsetup & key-files--I had to reboot my 8.04 LTS server, and after reboot, cryptsetup does not work for one of two encrypted disks I have; one disk unencrypts fine, while the other one gives me the error "Command failed: No key available with the passphrase." Nothing has changed with regards to the key-files or setup | 22:35 |
| niks1608 | but samba is not my problem but the driver from hp i think | 22:35 |
| Gnea | niks1608: I've used swat for years and there are options there that I *still* don't know what they do lol | 22:35 |
| blitzo | gnea, ok, another way to look at it - can i get a list by date of install (not date of package last mod time) | 22:35 |
| KE1HA | dpkg --get-selections > installed-software | 22:35 |
| KE1HA | dpkg --set-selections < installed-software | 22:35 |
| niks1608 | i will look into swat | 22:35 |
| KE1HA | dselect | 22:36 |
| Gnea | niks1608: I doubt that, because in order for your Ubuntu system to even know about the printer on the network, it needs to be pointed at it. SWAT can help you do that seamlessly. | 22:36 |
| KE1HA | also, look into sudo apt-get autoremove | 22:36 |
| KE1HA | it rids your system of orphanded packages post de-installaiton. | 22:37 |
| blitzo | KE1HA, nope, that just tells me what i have but doesn't give me clue how i got it | 22:37 |
| Gnea | niks1608: between SWAT and hp-setup, you should be able to locate and setup the printer correctly | 22:37 |
| Scunizi | niks1608: is the HP a network printer? | 22:38 |
| niks1608 | the printer can be pointed at, then i have to select the driver and that one does not work | 22:38 |
| KE1HA | :-) .. Well, I dont know of a way to ask the system everything you have installed or edited. sri. | 22:38 |
| actionParsnip | KE1HA: deborphan does that, autoremove only removes some (but most) | 22:38 |
| Gnea | niks1608: which driver did you choose? | 22:38 |
| KE1HA | actionParsnip, rrr true. | 22:39 |
| niks1608 | psc 1300 series | 22:39 |
| blitzo | actionParsnip, is deorphan a command or an option to apt-get | 22:39 |
| Gnea | niks1608: but what is the name of the PPD file? | 22:39 |
| niks1608 | ?? | 22:39 |
| actionParsnip | blitzo: seperate app, you can use it in conjuction with apt-get: sudo apt-get --purge remove `deborphan` will remove the packages deborphan finds | 22:40 |
| Gnea | niks1608: ls -l /etc/cups/ppd/ | 22:40 |
| Gnea | and, I will brb | 22:40 |
| niks1608 | i have to come back later first look into it thx | 22:41 |
| Scunizi | Gnea: niks1608 check this link for the suggested driver.. http://www.openprinting.org/printer/HP/HP-PSC_1300 | 22:41 |

| Flare183 | manbullphoenix: um not really, you'd have to get the problem to "dump" the sound or record it | 22:53 |
| Out-Of-Hand | yeah im using windows now... but i had to alter my windows installation .... anyways ... um ... i tried safe graphics . and i get the following where the boot hags | 22:53 |

| Gnea | Out-Of-Hand: I would just reinstall wubi | 22:56 |

| manbullphoenix | Flare183: Should've rephrased the question, sorry. Say I'm using Audacity. Is there a way to have it record whatever's also coming out of my speakers? | 22:56 |
| slow-motion | n8 | 22:56 |
| Gnea | actionParsnip: yeah | 22:57 |
| Flare183 | manbullphoenix: yup, there is. just tell it to record from your main output (the first one) | 22:57 |
| manbullphoenix | okay, thanks, I'll have a go at it | 22:57 |
| KE1HA | Out-Of-Hand, in my experience, UB always needed to be installed first, the WinDoze, but I've stopped Dual-Booting due to the many un explainable issues, jsut went to a virtual install, much easier, & safer. | 22:58 |
| manbullphoenix | Flare183: hm. Doesn't seem to be picking it up, I just get a blank line | 22:59 |
| aeon-ltd | Out-Of-Hand: wubi is just crap, you should stick to regualer isos and proper dual booting to ensure maxmimum stability | 22:59 |
| Flare183 | manbullphoenix: you have to try playing something while your recording it | 22:59 |
| Vhozard | yeah, have to agree with Wubi being crap | 22:59 |
| Out-Of-Hand | is there any way i can see if my Ubuntu.iso is fully downloaded ...... the wubi comes in the iso i downloaded | 22:59 |

| KE1HA | DITTO - WUBI leaves allot left to be desired, and in my opinion, is not stable. | 23:00 |
| aeon-ltd | Out-Of-Hand: you can just downlooad regular isos yourself put them in the same directory as wubi and wubi will use them | 23:00 |

| === KindTwo46 is now known as KindOne | ||
| yehia | is there any information about it with any of you ? | 23:04 |
| KE1HA | here's one for you: http://algebraicthunk.net/~dburrows/projects/aptitude/doc/en/ch02.html | 23:04 |
| bastid_raZor | !swap | yehia: there is on this webpage: | 23:05 |
| ubottu | yehia: there is on this webpage:: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 23:05 |
| blitzo | KE1HA, the man page refers to a reference manual, which is obviously not the man page | 23:05 |
| m0dmd | actionParsnip now should i make sure to download the Other Packages Related section or are those contained within the selected package? | 23:05 |
| manbullphoenix | Flare183: I know there's a way to do it on a Mac, it involves a virtual audio device | 23:05 |
| m0dmd | On the right panel, I see "download source package" | 23:05 |
| KE1HA | Deb Ref Manual: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch02.en.html#_basic_package_management_operations | 23:05 |
| m0dmd | Should I assume that that contains what I need? | 23:06 |
| actionParsnip | m0dmd: the system will tell you the deps you need. Personally I'd connect to a wired connection and get what you need. Much easier | 23:06 |
| m0dmd | Alright. | 23:06 |

| KE1HA | remember, aptitude is an Debian Applicaiton, Ubuntu just uses it as it's package manager. | 23:07 |
| manbullphoenix | Andre_Re: I might be able to help ya, what're you looking to do? | 23:07 |

| hkm | someboddy know some software for make freee nokia mobile phones? | 23:49 |
| ChB82 | KE1HA: okay...thank you! | 23:49 |
| actionParsnip | KE1HA: i thought it'd be fstab | 23:50 |
| KE1HA | try using uuidgen and tune2fs to assign that UUID to the file system | 23:50 |
| actionParsnip | hkm: how do you mean "make free" | 23:50 |
| hkm | actionParsnip, free band | 23:50 |
| BigC | KE1HA: ok so I typed what you said but changed installation to update, and the next command in the shell script is sudo apt-get update. When I run this in the terminal, at the end of the line of Press any key to update, it comes with read: 3: arg count | 23:51 |
| KE1HA | actionParsnip, your correst, it's FSTAB: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab | 23:51 |

| bugs_bugger | hello everyone. im having problems uninstalling the thunderbird mozilla build from ubuntuzilla. synaptic shows me this error message: thunderbird-mozilla-build: Subprocess instaled post-removal-script returned error code 2 (may not equal the actual error message, as i translated it) | 23:51 |
| KE1HA | It's as actionParsnip said, you have to update the UUID as the controller has changed. | 23:52 |
| KE1HA | Merely re-installing GRUB wont sort it out, was my error. | 23:52 |
| muse | hey, my wacom int2 keeps drawing even thou I have taken the pressure off the tip, has anyone else had this problem are can help me fix it? | 23:53 |
| KE1HA | BigC, to get the UUID wile using the Live-CD try this: sudo vol_id /dev/hda1 [where hda1 is your /boot ] | 23:56 |
| * uRock likes me new pet Meerkat | 23:56 | |
| KE1HA | then edit the FSTAB with the UUID, I think that should work. | 23:56 |
| BigC | oh, ok | 23:56 |
| uRock | !Maverick Meerkat | 23:57 |
| uRock | !Meerkat | 23:58 |
| ubottu | Maverick Meerkat is the codename for Ubuntu 10.10, due October 2010 - Maverick is Not released and Not Stable, discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 23:58 |
| * phil42 will be riding the lynx for a long time | 23:58 | |
| bwinterton | Does anyone have Blueman running on 10.04? | 23:58 |
| KE1HA | BigC, If no Joy there, Try: ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid which sould list all your UUID's then edit FSTAB | 23:59 |
| thune3 | bugs_bugger: you might find more info in /var/log/apt/ and actual postrm script is something like /var/lib/dpkg/info/thunderbird-mozilla-build.postrm which you could inspect. | 23:59 |
