| ChogyDan | jeeves_Moss: have you removed that script and then removed icedtea? | 00:00 |

| DasEi | elvipolar: and look for it in /etc/init.d/ | 00:02 |
| rideh | ikonia: are there alternatives to xinerama and twinview? | 00:02 |
| elvipolar | DasEi: what do you mean ? apt-get ins..... samba4 ? | 00:02 |
| c3l | what is the tool called that manages users in gnome? | 00:03 |

| neverblue | trying to remove mysql-server [aptitude remove mysql-server], but when i do so I receive: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. When I do this, it just hangs. Is there any way I can remove mysql-server, so I can reinstall/reconfigure it correctly ? | 00:03 |
| rideh | ikonia: i get 3d accell with xinerama it supposedly has a performance hit but i'm running a nvidia 460gtx so i dont see it | 00:03 |
| octavio | coz i got ubuntu 10.04 32bit | 00:04 |
| elvipolar | DasEi: yes it is, I just would like to make it works haha | 00:04 |
| coz_ | neverblue, run that command then | 00:04 |
| rideh | coz_: landscape + portrait | 00:04 |
| coz_ | rideh, oh | 00:04 |
| coz_ | rideh, nvidia-settings has adjustments for that I believe | 00:04 |
| jeeves_Moss | ChogyDan, <cocks an eyebrow> one sec. something seems to be moving here. stand by please | 00:04 |
| kermit | how do i submit patches? | 00:04 |
| ikonia | rideh: xinerama doesn't support 3d on the nvidia card | 00:04 |
| neverblue | coz_, please read the -entire- question | 00:04 |
| Aemaeth | neverblue, synaptic couldn't remove it completely? i hate mysql and reinstall it constantly | 00:04 |
| ikonia | rideh: not sure how you're getting that | 00:04 |
| rideh | coz_: yeah twinview doesnt support it. i have it running with xinerama, just annoyed with the alignment. I'm running version 256 of the nvidia driver. nvidia-settings is kinda borked | 00:04 |
| ikonia | kermit: patches to what | 00:04 |
| DasEi | elvipolar: second, installing on vm now | 00:05 |
| kermit | ikonia: just generally.. is the method different for every package? | 00:05 |
| * dddw trusten http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRfluaMKoOY | 00:05 | |
| rideh | ikonia: not sure either but it works? i can't get it across both panels, just screen 0 | 00:05 |
| octavio | coz save the file | 00:05 |
| coz_ | neverblue, sorry about that.... try running the command in text console first ctrl+alt+F1 | 00:05 |
| ZykoticK9 | ChogyDan, very different package - you can see the bug i submitted https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/connman/+bug/614035 any insights would be great. there was no input in +1, although someone else had the same issue. | 00:05 |
| ikonia | kermit: pretty much, depends if it's to ubuntu or to the upstream package | 00:05 |
| jeeves_Moss | ChogyDan, ugh, coffee shop connections | 00:05 |
| coz_ | octavio, ok extract the package....open terminal ...cd to the folder.... ./autogen.sh && make && sudo make install | 00:05 |
| makson | Hi guys - is there a good doc on how to setup a jail to install IRSSI + Screen in ? | 00:05 |
| coz_ | octavio, no sorry | 00:06 |
| ChogyDan | jeeves_Moss: no worries | 00:06 |
| Gustavo_Massa | Hi people. First time here. | 00:06 |
| neverblue | coz_ I am unable to, as my Ubuntu install is within VMware | 00:06 |
| coz_ | octavio, ./autogen.sh then ./configure && make && sudo make install | 00:06 |
| jeeves_Moss | ChogyDan, I think killing that .prm file may have fixed it | 00:06 |
| DasEi | !hi | Gustavo_Massa | 00:06 |
| ubottu | Gustavo_Massa: 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! | 00:06 |
| coz_ | neverblue, ooo darn... then I cant help I never foll with vm at all here | 00:06 |
| erUSUL | makson: no jails in linux ... closest thing is lxc http://blog.bodhizazen.net/linux/lxc-configure-ubuntu-lucid-containers/ | 00:07 |
| jeeves_Moss | !play | jeeves | 00:07 |
| neverblue | anyone else | 00:07 |
| makson | erUSUL: really? I'm looking at a ubuntu doc right now is chrooting not jail? | 00:07 |
| Gustavo_Massa | Thanks. I'm having some problems with my delta 1010lt soundboard and envy24control. Don't know if here's the right place to ask questions about audio. | 00:07 |
| makson | erUSUL: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot | 00:07 |
| octavio | coz so u want me to drag that sheet to terminal | 00:07 |
| tensorpudding | chroot doesn't provide everything that jails provide | 00:07 |
| c3l | what is the tool called that manages users in gnome? (not how I start it, I need to download it) | 00:07 |
| coz_ | octavio, what sheet? | 00:07 |
| makson | tensorpudding: example? | 00:08 |
| tensorpudding | some people use the term "chroot jail" to describe what chroot can do. | 00:08 |
| DasEi | elvipolar: sudo /etc/init.d/samba4 start or stop, and smb.conf done o' course | 00:08 |
| erUSUL | makson: no. chrrot != jail ( freebsd/solaris ) | 00:08 |
| coz_ | octavio, take a screenshot of what you mean and upload to picpaste.com | 00:08 |
| neverblue | trying to remove mysql-server [aptitude remove mysql-server], but when i do so I receive: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.

| rsouthard | if i have all_squash and anonuid=502 in my /etc/exports and 502=oracle will any file i create as user applqat be owned by oracle if i am in the nfs mounted directory? | 00:08 |
| _HORNET_ | test | 00:08 |
| makson | tensorpudding: I'm just looking to allow a few people to log into my VPS to run IRSSI and Screne, i wanted to isolate them from the rest of the system... can this be done with ubuntu? | 00:08 |
| ilovefairuz | makson: chroot it only concerned with file system, not memory or process allocation | 00:08 |
| makson | Hmm.. | 00:08 |
| tensorpudding | makson: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/jails-intro.html describes the difference between FreeBSD's jails and chroot | 00:08 |
| DasEi | c3l: users-admin | 00:09 |
| octavio | coz ok i extract it i get a folder what next open the terminal | 00:09 |
| makson | tensorpudding: for what i'm trying to do would that be alright, i just don't want them to blow the box up, or hack into root. | 00:09 |
| coz_ | octavio, yes open a terminal and cd to that folder | 00:09 |
| octavio | and cd the drive cd | 00:10 |
| coz_ | octavio, ?? | 00:10 |
| tensorpudding | I'm not entirely sure what all you want that to entail. | 00:10 |
| c3l | DasEi: there is not pakage with that name in the repository | 00:10 |
| Aemaeth | nautilus needs a "open terminal from this folder" option | 00:10 |
| coz_ | Aemaeth, there are scripts for that | 00:10 |
| makson | ilovefairuz: I see, if the user connecting just has regular rights, and all they have in there chroot environment is irssi + screen, that's deciently secure correct? | 00:10 |
| tensorpudding | You can give them accounts without any sudo privileges | 00:11 |
| coz_ | octavio, where is the folder? | 00:11 |
| octavio | coz i open terminal what do i type | 00:11 |
| tensorpudding | and I believe you can chroot jail users using ssh | 00:11 |
| makson | tensorpudding: yes, no sudo, locked down to the two apps, and perl libs that it needs. | 00:11 |
| ilovefairuz | makson: you probably want sandboxing using apparmor or selinux | 00:11 |
| neverblue | help! :D | 00:11 |
| erUSUL | Aemaeth: nautilus-open-terminal package | 00:11 |
| octavio | coz its in the download folders | 00:11 |
| coz_ | octavio, ok in terminal type cd downloads | 00:11 |
| ZykoticK9 | erUSUL, you beat me | 00:11 |
| makson | ilovefairuz: sheesh, i come from a windows world, and sandboxing & jails sound the same..,, | 00:11 |
| coz_ | octavio, rather cd Downloads | 00:11 |
| coz_ | octavio, it has to be an upper case D | 00:12 |
| Koshie | Hi | 00:12 |
| rsouthard | anyone know the the name of the pam module that identifies if a services will work with tcp wrappers? | 00:12 |
| ilovefairuz | !apparmor | makson | 00:12 |
| ubottu | makson: For information about the AppArmor security framework employed in Ubuntu (since Gutsy Gibbon), see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppArmor | 00:12 |
| makson | ubottu: looking at that now. | 00:12 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:12 |
| ZykoticK9 | erUSUL, "apt-cache search open terminal nautilus" finds only the right one ;) | 00:12 |
| makson | ubottu: Hi | 00:12 |
| Aemaeth | coz_, if you're teaching him terminal, tell him about TAB? | 00:12 |
| ubottu | 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! | 00:12 |
| erUSUL | ZykoticK9: :) | 00:12 |
| coz_ | Aemaeth, for sure | 00:13 |
| tensorpudding | ubottu is so self-deprecating | 00:13 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 00:13 |

| Aemaeth | thanks erUSUL | 00:13 |
| erUSUL | makson: is a supybot | 00:13 |
| Koshie | I'm sure the first password was good ! | 00:13 |
| makson | Cool. | 00:13 |
| coz_ | octavio, its ok if you are confused just answer the questions so I know where you are with this | 00:13 |

| DasEi | c3l:I guess it's in gnome-panel | 00:14 |

| octavio | coz yup | 00:16 |
| ChogyDan | neverblue: what happens when you try to remove it? | 00:16 |
| coz_ | octavio, ok in that fresh terminl ONLY type cd Downloads make sure the uppder case D is used | 00:16 |

| slimjimflim | i installed the kernel patch this morning and now my usb keyboard randomly borks | 00:17 |
| DasEi | SH-Chris: repair broken system | 00:17 |
| makson | ilovefairuz: so chroot just locks down the file system, isn't that pretty good teamed with taking away sudo privliages? | 00:17 |
| coz_ | octavio, ok now type ls that is a lower case L | 00:17 |
| slimjimflim | first time i unplugged and plugged back in | 00:17 |
| slimjimflim | fixed it | 00:17 |
| slimjimflim | this last time i couldn't get it, had to reboot | 00:17 |
| slimjimflim | anybody else having this issue? | 00:17 |
| coz_ | octavio, that should show the names of the packages and diretories in the Download folder ...yes? | 00:17 |
| slimjimflim | fixed it? | 00:17 |
| octavio | it say downloads | 00:18 |
| ecrane | where's a good site to get themes for ubuntu 8.04? | 00:18 |
| octavio | press enter again | 00:18 |
| zcat[1] | two identical RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ cards installed, only the first one shows up. I know there's something I add in /etc/modprobe.d/ to make the same driver find the second card because I did it once before, but memory and google are failing me. Any hints? | 00:18 |
| coz_ | octavio, do you have another folder in Downloads named downloads??? | 00:18 |
| surrender | anyone use tv-out with an older nvidia card? | 00:18 |
| octavio | no | 00:18 |
| Sasquatch7 | How would I open a web browser in the background and remain in the terminal once the browser is opened? I have tried & but the browser still opens over whatever window i'm currently in. | 00:18 |
| DasEi | c3l:gnome-system-tools it is | 00:18 |
| coz_ | octavio, ok lets make this easier ... go to that file you extracted and cut and paste it onto the Desktop | 00:18 |
| Aemaeth | coz_, yeah, i have one of those download folders too | 00:19 |
| coz_ | o0 | 00:19 |
| SH-Chris | DasEi: Ok, hope that works | 00:19 |
| c3l | DasEi: thanks | 00:19 |
| octavio | coz i did it | 00:19 |
| no--name | lets say i had a bunch of files named file 01 - file 20 .... how would i rename them to file.01 - file.20 with one command? | 00:19 |
| coz_ | octavio, ok so it on the Desktop now ...yes?? | 00:19 |
| zcat[1] | perhaps I'll just wait for the upgrade to 10.04 to finish and see if it figures it out for itself :) | 00:19 |
| octavio | coz yup | 00:20 |
| ilovefairuz | makson: it depends on what you have on stake, if there are sensitive data on that box, then tighten it as much as you can | 00:20 |
| DasEi | SH-Chris: should, though I'm getting tired now up since 6 am, being 20 past 1 night here | 00:20 |
| coz_ | octavio, ok now open a fresh terminal | 00:20 |
| almoxarife | the desktop has a click-able option to 'clean up by name' , I would like to know what the command line is for it so that I can have it auto done on each login to my account | 00:20 |
| makson | ilovefairuz: nothing sensative at all, just irc logs | 00:20 |
| octavio | coz ok | 00:20 |
| coz_ | octavio, type cd Desktop with an upper case D | 00:20 |
| makson | ilovefairuz: really just wanting to give a few users access to the box to allow them to always be connected thats all buddies of mine. | 00:20 |
| SH-Chris | DasEi: Allright :) Wonder what i should do if it doesnt though | 00:20 |
| coz_ | octavio, hit enter only once | 00:20 |
| ChogyDan | neverblue: oh, nm, that's what you doin. One thing to try would be to remove all the scripts for that package (all scripts with that package name in /var/lib/dpkg/info), run the dpkg configure again, then run the remove command. This is a very hacky method | 00:20 |
| Aemaeth | no--name, isn't there actually a rename program? you could throw it a wildcard | 00:20 |
| chroniK | hey :) | 00:20 |
| no--name | Aemaeth: yeah there is i just don't know how to do it | 00:21 |
| zcat[1] | makson, beware, lets they upload sounds of the telephone ringing and play them at random times to bewilder and confuse you... ;) | 00:21 |
| coz_ | octavio, there? | 00:21 |
| DasEi | SH-Chris: just ask how to get a gf61.. running by live or alternate-cd | 00:21 |
| no--name | i tried $ rename 's/\ /.' * | 00:21 |
| no--name | did not work | 00:21 |
| Aemaeth | no--name, do a man rename, it seems to explain it | 00:21 |
| Aemaeth | ah, k | 00:21 |
| hippiemalo | hello | 00:21 |
| octavio | it says desktop now | 00:21 |
| coz_ | octavio, ok | 00:22 |
| DasEi | SH-Chris: it's not so geekish noone knows ..;-) | 00:22 |
| makson | ilovefairuz: i can spend days locking the thing down, but the question is does it require siuch a lock down. I'm thinking no... I have snapshots on the box, I want to block people from installing shit, and from snooping around other users home folders thats pretty much it. | 00:22 |
| coz_ | octavio, ok now what is the name of the folder you just put onto the Desktop??? | 00:22 |
| surrender | what package do i have to install to enable file sharing? i installed samba and it still says i need a package | 00:22 |
| makson | zcat[1]: good thing I don't have speakers then :) | 00:22 |
| chroniK | hey hippiemalo :) | 00:22 |
| octavio | lxdream 0.9.1 | 00:23 |
| hippiemalo | hey chroniK ;) | 00:23 |
| zcat[1] | makson, I gave a friend access like that years back and that's what he did. Spent several days running to answer the phone before I figured out what was going on ;) | 00:23 |
| ilovefairuz | makson: you could lock communications with iptables to a few specific IRC hosts and you'll be one step ahead | 00:23 |
| coz_ | octavio, ok in that same terminal that says :Desktop type cd lxd then hit the tab keyboard button to complete it's name and hit enter once | 00:23 |
| Koshie | Anyone know for my Ejabberd's problem ? | 00:23 |

| istvan | Hey, i just installed ubuntu 10.04 on my custom build, and it works fine... up until i'm asked to log in. then it removes the login window, i just get the desktop backgorund and cursor. no menus or anything. this is usubntu studio btw, but i had trouble with plain ubuntu too. | 00:27 |
| ilovefairuz | makson: even if they did, with noexec they won't be able to execute it | 00:27 |
| octavio | ok now it dont do anything when i press tap,did you wanna me to put ./autog next to lxdream-0.91 | 00:28 |
| rww | MChaver: not until it's released. #ubuntu+1 is for development versions | 00:28 |

| rideh | coz_: Got a quick sec for a xinerama question? | 00:35 |

| jeeves_Moss | ChogyDan, ahhh, ok. thanks. | 00:36 |

| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - yeah i've seen this forum post, but madwifi doesn't seem to work for me at all, possibly because HAL is dead in 10.04? | 00:44 |
| zcat[1] | cam in the other day to sort out a printer problem here, turned out the USB plug was unplugged. I didn't spot it as fast as I should have either, spent way too long trying to figure out the problem. | 00:44 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - the strange thing is that I've *almost* got the ath5k drivers working in 10.04 for me, I can get it to connect if I initiate the wifi by CLI *before* i login to gnome ( I do this by ssh and using cnetworkmanager) | 00:45 |
| zcat[1] | Hmm, Frank's out for about an hour and a half. Should I install Ubuntu on the other desktop here? ;) | 00:45 |

| petriborg1 | but yet madwifi isn't supported by anything including wpa_suplicant / NetworkManager | 00:46 |
| froschi | oops.... /usr/lib/mono i mean... deleted it :) | 00:46 |

| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - yes i tried wicd i thad the same problem as the NM | 00:46 |
| dude2 | right now i am transferring a lot of files via FTP and Nautilus tells me it takes about four more hours. I'd like to go to sleep now, but I don't want my computer to be running all night. is here any way to tell my computer to "shutdown -h" right after the "file operations"-dialog is finished? | 00:46 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz both wicd and NM would die trying to init WPA | 00:46 |
| ilovefairuz | petriborg1: post the snippet from /var/log/messages relevant to the connection, all of it | 00:47 |
| beardy | petriborg1: Not at all.. | 00:47 |

| ilovefairuz | c3l: what kind of changes? | 00:48 |
| beardy | c3l: If you mean to their shell's profile, yes. Or 'source' the altered file. | 00:49 |
| dude1 | is there any way to tell my computer to "shutdown -h" right after the "file operations"-dialog is finished? | 00:49 |
| zcat[1] | c3l, generally yes | 00:49 |
| c3l | ilovefairuz: permissions to use sudo, what groups the user belongs to etc | 00:49 |
| zcat[1] | c3l in my experience, things like than the user has to log out for them to take effect | 00:50 |
| beardy | c3l: Group memberships yes, re-login is necessary. | 00:50 |
| c3l | beardy: I was thinking more about the permission to use sudo or not, and what groups the user belongs to | 00:50 |
| ilovefairuz | dude1: you can specify a time | 00:50 |
| c3l | beardy: oh thanks | 00:50 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - er how do i tell which part is the relevant part of the message log? | 00:50 |
| ilovefairuz | c3l: no and no | 00:50 |
| beardy | c3l: sudo changes will work as soon as they're addded. | 00:51 |
| dude1 | ilovefairuz: you mean like "sudo shutdown -h +240"? | 00:51 |
| rideh | Anyone any good with Xinerama in here? | 00:51 |
| c3l | ilovefairuz: no and no? so if I remove some groups and add some groups to a user, those changes will be in use directly? | 00:51 |
| zcat[1] | beardy, you sure? sudu permissions as in being added to the sys group.. I'm pretty sure you're wrong about this | 00:51 |
| ilovefairuz | dude1: or use xx:yy ( a specifc time in 24 hr format), type man shutdown in a terminal | 00:51 |
| froschi | ....mmm... i tried 'apt-cache search --installed mono' ... from the man i know this doesn't work (works only for depends).... what is the correct way? (in the ssh/term/shell.... i don't have no easy remote gui connection to the machine)...? | 00:52 |
| beardy | c3l: But if the new sudo policies involves membership of new groups, re-login. | 00:52 |
| c3l | rideh: I dont know if im good at it, but I use xinerama and can set it up, what do you need? | 00:52 |
| ilovefairuz | c3l: as far as i know, yes | 00:52 |
| beardy | zcat[1]: I'm not wrong. | 00:52 |
| c3l | beardy: ilovefairuz: you two are basically telling me the oposite | 00:53 |
| dude1 | but I'd like it to shutdown after the transfer is finished and not like, perhaps, an hour later or so … is there no way to do this? the window "file operations" closes itself, can't it trigger a shutdown by this or anything? | 00:53 |
| ilovefairuz | c3l: not really, it depends on the specific scenario | 00:53 |
| zcat[1] | beardy, adding permissions to sudoers, sure.. adding user to a group that has sudo access, you have to log out and back in again so your shell is in the group | 00:53 |
| SH-Chris | Sad face, seems dasEi cant help meh :( | 00:53 |
| rideh | c3l: Works fine 1 landscape 1 portrait. Once i horizontally aligned the monitors (bottom edge) the top half of the portrait monitor became unusable.. any ideas? | 00:53 |
| c3l | ilovefairuz: oh, I see | 00:53 |
| ilovefairuz | c3l: what kind of changes are you making? exactly what they are? | 00:53 |
| makson | how can i blcok users form using the sudo command? | 00:53 |
| beardy | zcat[1]: Did you read anything of what I said? | 00:54 |
| makson | or the su - command? | 00:54 |
| mikeliss | I'm having issues connecting to cups on my localhost. I don't think I've done anything remotely related to printer settings in a LONG time. Anybody know why I would have this problem? | 00:54 |
| maco | makson: well if there's no root password "su -" without a user name after it will always fail | 00:54 |
| maco | makson: with a username after it, theyd have to know that user's password | 00:54 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - http://pastebin.com/U3BxjKH6 | 00:54 |
| ilovefairuz | makson: 'su -' requires knowing the root password, and use: EDITOR=nano visudo | 00:54 |
| SH-Chris | Can anybody else help me with my problem? | 00:54 |
| c3l | ilovefairuz: I want to remove sudo permission, I guess thats removing the user from the admin group, and add a new user which has sudo permissions, but the adding wont be any problem | 00:54 |
| maco | makson: if you remove them from tha "admin" group they wont have automatic access to sudo either | 00:54 |
| rwhe | how do i open sound preferences? i don't see it under System > Prefs | 00:54 |
| mikeliss | I've tried restarting cups, but to no avail, and I'm just frustrated cause all I want to do is print a recipe to make dinner. | 00:54 |
| maco | makson: /etc/sudoers by default only allows members of the admin group to use sudo | 00:55 |
| frankS2 | Hi i just downloaded firefox beta , when i try to run it i get firefox-bin no such file or directory, when i run ./firefox-bin | 00:55 |
| frankS2 | but it is there | 00:55 |
| c3l | rideh: what tool are you doing it with, try some gui frontend such as arandr | 00:55 |
| zcat[1] | beardy, yes.. is depends on 'how' you're giving the user access to sudo. Un ubuntu the usual way is ad them to whatever group has admin rights, adm I think | 00:55 |
| zcat[1] | bah, never mind | 00:55 |
| rideh | c3l: i hardcoded the xorg.conf. I'm using nvidia drivers | 00:55 |
| ilovefairuz | c3l: i think you won't need to logout for this | 00:56 |
| SH-Chris | I need help with getting ubuntu to work with my display cause whenever i load ubuntu the display cuts out on me | 00:56 |
| beardy | zcat[1]: I told him that group adds requires a re-login. | 00:56 |
| zcat[1] | beardy, yeah, ok. | 00:56 |
| c3l | rideh: xrander should read it, arandr is just a graphical frontend to xrandr. I suggest trying it. but make a backup of your xorg.conf | 00:56 |
| rwhe | how do I reinstall Sound Preferences? | 00:56 |
| mikeliss | frankS2: look in the directory you downloaded again. It has an sh script that I believe works. Try it from the terminal. | 00:56 |
| dude1 | well, hell then | 00:57 |
| ilovefairuz | petriborg1: that's not the connection attempt, try to connect and use 'tail' on the file | 00:57 |
| makson | maco: ilovefairuz thanks guys... I guess i'll just create a new group and just give them regular user access | 00:57 |
| maco | makson: you dont need a new group | 00:57 |
| petriborg1 | ok ilovefairuz | 00:57 |
| c3l | ilovefairuz: thanks, I guess Ill notice ;) | 00:57 |
| rideh | c3l: ok will do | 00:57 |
| maco | makson: users can be in multiple groups. by default they are in a group with the same name as their user, but you can add them to admin *in addition* if you like. so simply dont | 00:57 |
| frankS2 | mikeliss, yes thanks ive done so, both -run and firefox | 00:57 |
| * SH-Chris is paitiently waiting for someone to figure out his problem... | 00:57 | |
| hiexpo | what app should i use to keep track of internet usage ? | 00:57 |
| maco | makson: when you add a user through system -> administration -> users and groups you can pick between adding an administrative user or a desktop user. you want desktop | 00:58 |
| maco | makson: theyll still be able to type sudo, but they'll always get a permission denied when they try | 00:58 |
| zcat[1] | now why would the perl package from my 10.04 CD be 'corrupt' if the MD5 of the ISO is correct disk passed a self-test? | 00:58 |
| makson | maco: using terminal | 00:59 |
| ilovefairuz | zcat[1]: hardware issue? perhaps just dust | 00:59 |
| mikeliss | frankS2: and neither works? Do you get any errors in the terminal? | 00:59 |
| makson | maco: I want to make a new group | 00:59 |
| maco | makson: in that case, sudo nano /etc/group | 00:59 |
| maco | makson: oh? why? | 00:59 |
| mikeliss | Does anybody know why localhost wouldn't be able to connect to cups? | 00:59 |
| mikeliss | I really, really want to print something. | 00:59 |
| maco | makson: you dont need a new group to make people not be in the admin group.... | 00:59 |
| zcat[1] | ilovefairuz, yeah, just got anotehr one too. Probably didn't clean the disk properly | 00:59 |
| beardy | hiexpo: There's many. I like vnstat. | 01:00 |
| maco | makson: a new group would be "sudo groupadd" though | 01:00 |
| zcat[1] | liboobs .. lol | 01:00 |
| makson | maco: no i wan't to for management purposes. | 01:00 |
| hiexpo | beardy, yah was jusy looking at that | 01:00 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - http://pastebin.com/kKhNaCuc | 01:00 |
| ilovefairuz | zcat[1]: use usb if you can, must faster | 01:00 |
| hiexpo | beardy, thanks | 01:00 |
| zcat[1] | Don't know if it's safe t ostop the isntall this far though | 01:00 |
| * SH-Chris is PATIENTLY waiting :| | 01:00 | |
| zcat[1] | err, upgrade I mean | 01:00 |
| makson | maco: gotcha, and is there a quick way to see what groups a user is apart of? | 01:01 |
| maco | makson: you can see what groups the running user is part of by running "groups" | 01:01 |
| zcat[1] | will just reinstall the packages later | 01:01 |
| maco | makson: i think "groups foo" to find out foo's groups works too | 01:01 |
| hiexpo | beardy, does run upon boot ? | 01:01 |
| ilovefairuz | petriborg1: are you sure the password and authenticated type selected is correct? | 01:02 |
| makson | maco: thanks | 01:02 |
| beardy | SH-Chris: Generally in help channels you need to provide enough details of your problem for anyone to be able to help you. Rewrite your question, use a pastebin if there is much output. Provide facts, what do you want to do, what goes wrong, and when. | 01:02 |
| rooks | routing problem, i have [desktop]---[server]---[isp-router]---{funny cat images} scenario, i enabled on server /proc///ip_forward and set up routes so default is on interface facing the router, but still i cant access the net and funny cat images from desktop, any help please | 01:02 |
| makson | maco: my user i created isn't apart of the admin groups yet it can still su - and sudo | 01:02 |
| beardy | hiexpo: Yes. | 01:03 |
| maco | makson: mmm is it called adm maybe? | 01:03 |

| sri | does ubuntu probe for new monitors when waking up from sleep? | 01:04 |
| SH-Chris | Lol, k | 01:04 |
| * sri switches between dual monitors and a laptop screen depending on where he is. | 01:04 | |
| sri | and the nvidia driver makes it a pain to manually setup twinview. | 01:04 |
| * sri wants to either setup an xorg.conf that will let me switch to a dual monitor mode automatically, or load a config when it detects I'm on a port replicator. | 01:05 | |
| sri | is that possible or is this a problem with nvidia's proprietary madness? | 01:05 |
| frankS2 | mikeliss, no, just the "does not exists" | 01:05 |
| sri | searching hasn't shown me much.. it doesn't seem like acpi does a probe | 01:05 |
| bonedragon | I messed up my language by adding and removing spanish...is there a smaller more specific channel that can address language questions? | 01:05 |
| ilovefairuz | petriborg1: well it looks random, have you tried modprobe -r athk5 and then modprobe it again ?(after you login to gnome) | 01:06 |
| zcat[1] | sri, I think the nvidia thingy has some way of switching between different profiles... | 01:06 |
| mikeliss | frankS2: Hmmm...you got me. | 01:06 |
| zcat[1] | not at home though, so can't check | 01:06 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - yeah that didn't work, but if I did that after just sshing in that would allow it to work | 01:06 |
| mikeliss | frankS2: I've had issues with this myself, but I can usually resolve them by trying a couple different things. You might try the mozilla/firefox irc channel. | 01:07 |
| sri | zcat[1]: you'd think so but it doesn't quite work the way I want it to. teh way it sets up the metamodes is a bit wierd. | 01:07 |

| ilovefairuz | petriborg1: have you using using nmcli from inside gnome in a terminal ? | 01:09 |
| zcat[1] | really starting to wonder if lucid is even going to boot after this upgrade.. how important are perl, liboobs and iagno? | 01:09 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - i've been talking to the compat-wireless people and one guy seems to have the same set working in 2.6.35 - do you have any suggestions about how to use that kernel? | 01:09 |

| ilovefairuz | petriborg1: not packaged, but i doubt it would work if cnetworkmanager didn't | 01:11 |
| Chevy787 | Hey, I was thinking of switching over to ubuntu on my laptop and used the windows installtion version just to test out if it was gonna work for me. I got all my drivers and such working, but as I attempted to play a x264 encoded mkv with vorbis audio with the mplayer I got from the software center I began to exerpeince some problems. I tried to open the mkv, but I got some error that I've now forgotten. It seems it was with the video rend | 01:12 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - cnetworkmanager did work when logged in via ssh, but not when logged in via gnome which is just wierd ::shrug:: | 01:12 |

| nunojpg | apt-get recplaces the package with "linux", and then it is the most recent one | 01:13 |
| nunojpg | can I force to be exactaly that? | 01:13 |
| realubot | The sound doesn't work, independent of movies, music, system sound etc. | 01:13 |
| ilovefairuz | petriborg1: try killing nm-applet before using cnetworkmanager | 01:13 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - yeah i had to disable nm-applet for it to work at all, I've already done that :-) | 01:13 |
| ilovefairuz | petriborg1: not disable, kill | 01:14 |
| ilovefairuz | !sound | realubot | 01:14 |
| ubottu | realubot: 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. | 01:14 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - I also was able to get it to work by completely killing out NM and wpa_supplicant and manually constructing a wpa_supplicant.conf etc | 01:15 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - I removed nm-applet from the startup programs, the process is never launched period | 01:15 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - actually nm-applet has been bugged for me in 10.04 anyway, it never shows up in the panel at all so its completely broken | 01:16 |

| kish | !bash-completion | 01:33 |
| maco | mao12345: then you need a windows partition or a windows vm. nothing we can do about adobe not supporting linux. feel free to write to them and complain about their lack of support | 01:33 |
| maco | mao12345: wine is a maybe-if-you're-lucky thing, not a sure-thing | 01:33 |
| DGM | though its getting a lot better lately. I can run a lot more that i couldnt last year its amazing | 01:34 |
| ilovefairuz | kish: write new one, use 'complete' command | 01:34 |
| mao12345 | that is the problem, i hate windows and i love linux, last year i format windows 2 times per month | 01:34 |
| Chevy787 | mao12345, you were doing something wrong | 01:35 |
| Chevy787 | clearly | 01:35 |
| devunt | heldo | 01:35 |
| ilovefairuz | !hi | devunt | 01:35 |
| ubottu | devunt: 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! | 01:35 |
| ilovefairuz | mao12345: use alternatives | 01:36 |
| mao12345 | i format windows 2 times per month because windows began slow and make impossible to work in it, on the other hand, linux is fast and secure | 01:36 |
| maco | mao12345: put windows in a vm then | 01:36 |
| WolfDogDesigns | ilovefairuz: unfortunately thats not always viable :( | 01:36 |
| DGM | and windows isnt that bad that you need to format twice per month.. then you really are doing something incredibly weird with it | 01:36 |
| maco | mao12345: you can take a snapshot of the vm and revert it to before-it-got-crappy when stuff goes wrong | 01:37 |
| savid | Why is it when I install wine1.2, it only gives me wine-1.1.42? | 01:37 |
| DGM | if virtualbox is too slow aswell you might even consider a new pc :P | 01:37 |
| mao12345 | DGM: yes, i use ares for download music | 01:37 |
| ilovefairuz | WolfDogDesigns: then use a VM | 01:37 |
| mao12345 | this is the cause of virus | 01:37 |
| DGM | so the problem is between the chair and the keyboard | 01:37 |
| DGM | not windows :) | 01:38 |
| maco | ilovefairuz: i get the impression mao12345 is a professional artist and needs some of the more advanced features that inkscape doesnt yet support. though i do recommend trying the latest version of inkscape, which adds more features | 01:38 |
| WolfDogDesigns | even with a VM or Wine... using something like MSWord still makes u feel dirty :( but sometimes theres no choice | 01:38 |
| ilovefairuz | mao12345: why didn't you use virtualbox? you can snapshot the clean version and return to it if you get viruses | 01:38 |
| DGM | ilovefairuz: he said it was too slow | 01:38 |
| maco | mao12345: new release of inkscape is due out in the next couple weeks i think | 01:38 |
| mao12345 | now i have vmware player with xp for emergency, if you know a page that show who install the adobe cs4 suite please mail me: (mao_250@hotmail.com) | 01:38 |
| hiexpo | use windows > it tells you has windows :) | 01:39 |
| maco | mao12345: it's version 0.48 and you can try it out by getting it from launchpad http://www.inkscape.org/bzr.php?lang=en | 01:39 |
| DGM | you could try virtualbox instead of vmware player | 01:39 |
| T-20 | weekekeke | 01:39 |
| maco | mao12345: its not a matter of how-to-install | 01:40 |
| T-20 | Hi? | 01:40 |
| Jinxzs | WolfDogDesigns, how to install ares ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/473783/ | 01:40 |
| T-20 | hooy!... | 01:40 |
| odiopastebin | Does anybody here can help me with samba ? it doesn't works, if i try to do service smbd start or stop I just got rare messages like this "smbd start/running, process 7383" . what can I do ? | 01:40 |
| T-20 | good morning... | 01:40 |
| ilovefairuz | DGM: mao12345: shut down extra services, turn off visual styles, disable paging, there are stuff to do to optimize windows in a VM, ask in ##windows | 01:40 |
| hiexpo | !hi > T-20 | 01:40 |
| ubottu | T-20, please see my private message | 01:40 |
| maco | mao12345: its a matter of writing the code to make it go. you need a software developer who can reimplement the missing pieces of the win32 api in wine | 01:40 |
| DGM | Jinxzs: what is ares? There is a libares package but nothing with ares? | 01:41 |
| ilovefairuz | odiopastebin: that's not an error message | 01:41 |
| mao12345 | maco: how can i make wine non-free but fully compatible copying the dll and native archives?? | 01:41 |
| Jinxzs | wolf says it used to download mp3s | 01:41 |
| maco | mao12345: yes, copying dll's from windows sometimes makes thinks work | 01:41 |
| maco | *thing | 01:41 |
| maco | *things | 01:41 |
| happyface | I dual boot and want to sync my iPhone (podcasts) with Ubuntu and Windows concurrently, how can I do this? | 01:42 |
| DGM | its a windows program, not an ubuntu package | 01:42 |
| hiexpo | !windows | 01:42 |
| ubottu | For discussion on Microsoft software, or help with same, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubottu equivalents | 01:42 |
| mao12345 | how do you think of React OS | 01:42 |
| mao12345 | ?? | 01:42 |
| ilovefairuz | mao12345: it's far from complete, and please only ask ubuntu questios | 01:43 |
| KE1HA | happyface, yo can only interact with an OS if it's operational, if you dual booting, only one is operational at a time, so you'd have to sync one, then sync the other. | 01:43 |

| SH-Chris | How do i disable KMS? | 01:43 |
| soreau | SH-Chris: Usually, booting with nomodeset as a kernel arg will do it | 01:46 |

| soreau | SH-Chris: You can also use i915.modeset=0, substituting i915 for the name of your kernel module (radeon or nouveau) | 01:47 |
| basix- | is there a good manual similar to the "...For Dummies" series for linux/ubuntu | 01:47 |
| === Guest68268 is now known as welinux | ||
| welinux | basix: there is for Debian | 01:47 |
| DGM | online there is ubuntuguide.org | 01:47 |

| headkase314 | basix-, Ubuntu = Based on Debian | 01:48 |
| DGM | theres also ubuntu-manual.org | 01:48 |
| c3l | I have a bunch of directories where I want a set of users to be able to read, and another set of users that are able to read and write. so I basically need two groups for one directory, is that possible? | 01:48 |
| headkase314 | basix-, Ubuntu = Based on Debian, or more exactly, Debian Unstable | 01:48 |
| odiopastebin | ilovefairuz, so what is it ? what can I do ? | 01:48 |
| gryllida | hey! how do I change user account password and name? | 01:48 |

| basix- | what else is there other than Debian? | 01:49 |
| c3l | gryllida: easiest would be the user management tool, if running gnome, run users-admin | 01:49 |
| DGM | basix-: google for linux distributions for that answer | 01:49 |
| basix- | okay | 01:49 |
| gryllida | c3l, I'm in cli | 01:49 |
| tesuji | how do you disable the gnome keyring? | 01:49 |
| gryllida | I dont have gui | 01:49 |
| KE1HA | basix-, well Google Ubuntu for Dummies, and there's loads of links, but I'm not gonna advertise the. Also try, google Ubuntu [subject] wiki, tons of good info that's "free' | 01:49 |
| DGM | too much to list :) | 01:49 |
| basix- | thanks much everyone | 01:50 |
| rallias_ | is there a program that I can use to input a web page, download it, and extract all the links for the page, then download those links and start over with them, all within a linux machine? | 01:50 |
| c3l | gryllida: cli? command line install? | 01:50 |
| nowb | How to deploy ubuntu in a windows environment? | 01:50 |
| DGM | but ubuntu is a good distribution, especially if you're new to linux | 01:50 |
| tesuji | how do you disable the gnome keyring? i deleted the directory and now it wants a new passowrd. i want it to go away | 01:50 |
| DGM | nowb: deploy? | 01:50 |
| welinux | basix-: Ubuntu Pocket Guide is free and in internet can be easily finded | 01:50 |

| tesuji | basix-, ubuntu is grand if you have vanilla hardware and you don't want to do anything strange, different, or unusual :) | 01:51 |
| nowb | Meaning within a mixed environment(Linux and windows) | 01:52 |
| c3l | gryllida: im actually not sure, user and group management is one of few things I likt to do with a GUI. but look at adduser and passwd, those commands might do what you wan. passwd at least changes password | 01:53 |
| basix- | hmm also is there a good graphical ftp server client for ubuntu in the software center? | 01:53 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - you still there ? - I've been experimenting with getting the wpa_sup working / not working and found that if I reboot, but leave the monitor "disconnected" (I use a KVM), while it boots, and then login it results in a low-resolution screen and some differences in the lsmod output, BUT if I then stop NM and such and launch my own wpa_sup that this weird "disconnected" launch is able to properly connect while the other isn | 01:53 |
| welinux | nautilus-open-terminal - i wanna change the words in right-click-menu in that package | 01:53 |
| KE1HA | tesuji, I have a complete Home built ustom box, EVGA MB, NV Dual GLX, xFI Sound, Raptors drives, and the install went perfect, install went without a hitch, so it doesn't need to be plain-jane fer sure. | 01:53 |
| DGM | basix-: fireftp maybe. but there seem to be a couple | 01:53 |
| MaRk-I | gryllida: changing a passowrd is easy, renaming a user is like deleting it and would have folder permission problems, but you can try: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=64021 | 01:54 |
| Maliron | Hey all! | 01:54 |
| tesuji | KE1HA, and if your hardware isn't properly autodetected you'll spend hours and hours and hours and more hours.... has happened to me 3 times on 3 different installs. | 01:54 |
| c3l | DGM: fireftp is not a ftp server | 01:54 |
| basix- | i don't get any search results for fireftp.. | 01:54 |
| zcat[1] | bugger. got to the bottom of the problem, cd drive reads unreliably, so now I have a really badly corrupted 10.04 with lots of missing packages, and even more than can't be configured | 01:55 |
| c3l | basix-: its a firefox addon, a ftp client in the browser. you where looking for a ftp server or client? | 01:55 |
| basix- | server* | 01:55 |
| KE1HA | tesuji, we'll that all depends, but I've got some 15+ box's of different flavors, and none were too bad. WiFI can be tricky, but other than that, I've not hit any roda blocks. | 01:55 |
| pogothedog | i need help puting teamspeak3 on my computer plz help if u no how ? | 01:55 |
| KE1HA | .. whops, road blocks. | 01:56 |
| tesuji | KE1HA, good for you, you're a lucky one | 01:56 |
| c3l | basix-: gadmin-proftpd | 01:56 |
| zcat[1] | time to back up home and a few things from /etc/ and do a fresh install I think.. perhaps this time off a usb drive | 01:56 |
| c3l | basix-: its a graphical frontend to the ftp server proftpd | 01:56 |
| basix- | thanks c3l | 01:56 |
| KE1HA | Do the the research "before" buying, saves allot fo trouble. | 01:56 |
| tesuji | KE1HA, does someone keep a list of supported systems? | 01:56 |
| petriborg1 | KE1HA - what wifi do you use, i could *really* use an easier to use pci-wifi card right now - my current one is completely fucked in 10.04 | 01:57 |
| pogothedog | any one here use teamspeak3 for ubuntu 8.04? | 01:57 |
| chalcedony | if i wanted someone to be able to help with my computer, is there some program like realvnc for ubuntu? | 01:57 |
| petriborg1 | pogothedog - sorry i haven't used TS in a long time :-/ | 01:57 |
| KE1HA | It's the same for WinDoze, if you buy something that's not WinDoze supported, can't complain abt it not working. | 01:57 |
| tesuji | KE1HA, haha pretriborg knows whereof i speak | 01:57 |
| basix- | c3l, i will need to install proftpd as well to work with it? | 01:57 |
| tesuji | KE1HA, everything is supported in windows :) | 01:57 |
| ilovefairuz | petriborg1: aah you lost me | 01:58 |
| ilovefairuz | petriborg1: thought you were running on bare metal | 01:58 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - running what on bare metal? I am running on baremetal no vm involved here | 01:58 |
| c3l | basix-: I checked that, proftpd is a dependency for the frontend, so it will get installed automatically,everything needed for it to work will get installed when you install gadmin-proftpd =) | 01:58 |
| Maliron | I'm a long time linus user, and I've been on Ubuntu for about 2 years now. I'm on 10.04 and I just started an update. It got to a point where it was installing a new kernel, and froze in the middle of it. System was completely unresponsive. I had no choice but to power down. When it booted back up, and I launched the update manager again, it said something about a partial upgrade (this was not a dist-upgrade obviously) and I let it do it's | 01:58 |
| Maliron | thing. It eventually finished and said no upgrade was needed. Now when I run the update manager it goes out an checks, but says there are no updates. How can I make sure everything is sane now, what about the rest of the new kernel and other updates? Sorry for the long question. | 01:58 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - i have several boxes which i use a video-switch on to use a single monitor/mouse w/ | 01:59 |
| ilovefairuz | petriborg1: KVM ? | 01:59 |
| ilovefairuz | petriborg1: aha, THAT kvm | 01:59 |
| tesuji | KE1HA, i spent 18 hours doing an install on old hardware over the weekend because ubuntu does not autodetect intel video | 01:59 |
| MarkSS | How do I install iTunesSetup.exe in wine? It keeps getting the busy thing and not working | 01:59 |
| DGM | kvm <3 | 01:59 |
| basix- | c3l, ok..but now when i install it if it doesn't show up in my 'Applications' where else would I look for it? | 02:00 |
| tesuji | KE1HA, and no one here had any idea | 02:00 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - anyway i have *no* idea wtf causes this its scary! :( | 02:00 |
| c3l | basix-: hm thats strange. can you run gadmin-proftpd or similar cfrom the terminal? | 02:01 |
| tesuji | KE1HA, prolly the bulk of that time was spent praying for help here, finally find something with google, then another bunch of hours to make it work on an installed system as the setup is different from livecd | 02:01 |
| bigdant | join #linuxmint | 02:01 |
| basix- | i'm sorry | 02:01 |
| sweetpi | tesuji: try booting with "video=vesa i915.modeset=0". its a kms problem in the latest version | 02:01 |
| ilovefairuz | petriborg1: you're using experimental drivers... kind of | 02:01 |
| chalcedony | is there some program like realvnc for ubuntu? | 02:01 |
| basix- | c3l, i found it in the menu | 02:01 |
| basix- | under System Tools | 02:01 |
| c3l | basix-: good =) | 02:01 |
| tesuji | sweetpi, i know that now :) :) :) what is "kms"? | 02:01 |
| basix- | c3l, thank you for your help :) | 02:01 |
| petriborg1 | ilovefairuz - yeah i saw from infomod that ath5k is marked experimental :( | 02:01 |
| sweetpi | !kms | tesuji | 02:02 |
| headkase314 | tesuji, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/KernelModeSetting | 02:02 |
| tesuji | sweetpi, actually i915.modeset=1 was the fix | 02:02 |
| DGM | what does that do exactly? force it into some vesa mode? | 02:02 |
| KE1HA | tesuji, It's like I said, research. Read first, many times, then Install once. | 02:02 |
| Jordan_U | tesuji: I explained to you in #grub that the problem was not that "ubuntu does not autodetect intel video". Please stop spreading misinformation. | 02:02 |
| c3l | basix-: im just glad to help, and remember ftp is never safe. if you want to share files securely use sftp (ssh) | 02:02 |
| odiopastebin | why samba show this smbd start/running, process #number ? | 02:03 |
| tesuji | Jordan_U, i don | 02:03 |
| petriborg1 | KE1HA - sorry maybe i missed it in the spue of chat, but did you say what wifi card you're using? | 02:03 |
| sweetpi | tesuji: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/KernelModeSetting anyway gtg | 02:03 |
| KE1HA | tesuji, ias it the i8xx series chipset? | 02:03 |
| tesuji | Jordan_U, dunno what it does, i only know what it doesn't | 02:03 |
| KE1HA | oop is it ,,, | 02:03 |
| basix- | c3l, ok, it's just to learn how to set up a server on linux i don't plan on doing much sharing just experimenting | 02:03 |
| tesuji | KE1HA, ancient dell laptop, dunno exactly what it has, all i know is i915.modeset=1 is the fix | 02:04 |
| Maliron | Any ideas? | 02:04 |
| KE1HA | tesuji, I use a bucnh of odd-ball wifi's, Linksys, iwp2200, and a few I can't even pronounce :-) | 02:05 |
| KE1HA | tesuji, yes, I've got an old D400, had the same issue, but what most dont understand, it's acually a kernel issue causeing the whole mess. | 02:05 |
| ecrane | http://socuteurl.com/bizzypoo | 02:05 |
| tesuji | KE1HA, i'm just lucky i guess. another one we never figgered out. it's a relatively new hp laptop, just crashes randomy with ubuntu, works just fine with windows, finally gave up on it | 02:06 |
| Simeon_H | anyone else here bought powerdvd linux? | 02:06 |
| c3l | basix-: ah thats nice, but look in to ssh too, its the standar for connecting to other linux (and unix) machines and also sending files | 02:06 |
| Jordan_U | tesuji: The problem is *not* that Ubuntu fails to detect intel hardware, your hardware is being detected as intel and is also being detected as being part of a series of chipsets most of which have problems with the intel mode setting drivers (which is what i915.modeset=1 enables). | 02:07 |
| c3l | basix-: that is, if you already dont know about it, I dont know how new you are =) | 02:07 |
| KE1HA | tesuji, well, I hate to advocate WinDoze, but if it works better for you, then by all means, please use. | 02:07 |
| Jordan_U | tezuka0: A full explanation of the problem can be found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes | 02:08 |
| Maliron | Simeon_H, Why use powerdvd, there are so many gpl players out there that are good. | 02:08 |
| Simeon_H | well I wanted to see if it was any good | 02:08 |
| Simeon_H | but I purchased it from the canonical store yesterday and still no download link :( | 02:08 |
| headkase314 | Simeon_H, I use VLC for DVDs, you may have to enable the Medibuntu repository and install libdvdcss2 | 02:09 |
| c3l | I have a bunch of directories where I want a set of users to be able to read, and another set of users that are able to read and write. so I basically need two groups for one directory, is that possible? | 02:09 |
| headkase314 | Simeon_H, I think I used VLC anyway - been so long since I watched a real DVD that I don't recall totally! ;) | 02:10 |
| Simeon_H | well I'm using VLC now | 02:10 |
| Simeon_H | but I'm kind of cheesed off that I can't download a program I paid like $60 for | 02:10 |
| Maliron | I'm on 10.04 and I just started an update. It got to a point where it was installing a new kernel, and froze in the middle of it. System was completely unresponsive. I had no choice but to power down. When it booted back up, and I launched the update manager again, it said something about a partial upgrade. How do I make my checks now and get the rest of the updates? | 02:11 |
| headkase314 | Simeon_H, Medibuntu information and you need libdvdcss2 for encrypted DVDs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu | 02:11 |
| basix- | c3l, i know ssh but never heard of sftp ;) | 02:11 |
| earthling_ | How do I put the "show desktop" shortcut icon on the gnome panel? | 02:11 |
| c3l | basix-: basically the same thing, sftp is ssh file transfer protocol. the cli tool is called scp =) | 02:11 |
| Simeon_H | dude I can already play encrypted DVD's | 02:12 |
| Simeon_H | that's not my problem | 02:12 |
| ^peanut^ | Simeon_H: have you called the support or billing line? | 02:12 |
| Simeon_H | I sent an email | 02:13 |
| ^peanut^ | Simeon_H: ok, but you didn't call them? | 02:13 |
| Simeon_H | but I was wondering if anyone else had the same problem | 02:13 |
| Simeon_H | no, I live in Australia | 02:13 |
| ^peanut^ | Simeon_H: oh | 02:13 |
| whompapotamus | c3l: From what I understand - one group per folder | 02:13 |
| c3l | whompapotamus: then how would you solve a case similar to mine? | 02:13 |
| ^peanut^ | c3l: yea, for permissions you use groups as teams of people but only 1 group can own a directory/file | 02:13 |
| SimonSayez | Simeon_H, Are you using mplayer to play encrypted DVD's | 02:14 |
| gryllida | hey | 02:14 |
| Simeon_H | vlc | 02:14 |
| gryllida | how do I change account username without adding new account? | 02:14 |
| gryllida | on the system, user acnt I mean | 02:15 |
| c3l | ^peanut^: its quite a limitation to not allow configurations to more than one group per file/folder | 02:15 |
| Simeon_H | and I have libdvdcss installed | 02:15 |
| === DanYoSon_ is now known as DanYoSon | ||
| Simeon_H | and I can play encrypted DVD's without any problems | 02:15 |
| ^peanut^ | c3l: I believe its more of a security issue than anything. where windows doesn't mind, linux does. | 02:15 |
| SimonSayez | Simeon_H, Can you rip the vob files from the DVD ? | 02:15 |
| nedflander | jeezoflip - this is not an alternative to windows | 02:16 |
| Simeon_H | why would I do that? | 02:16 |
| Simeon_H | I just bought an external DVD player | 02:16 |
| c3l | ^peanut^: ah I see | 02:16 |
| Simeon_H | so I wouldn't have to | 02:16 |
| Simeon_H | and it works fine | 02:16 |
| whompapotamus | c3l: Thinking it through (on my iPhone right now so I don't have a shell to work with) | 02:16 |
| SimonSayez | Simeon_H, so you can convert the vob files to flv or mpg so everyone can see them | 02:16 |
| ^peanut^ | c3l: along with file permissions there is also the hooks for selinux. you should read up on that, it may do what you are trying to do, but in a much more secure way. | 02:16 |

| c3l | marky707: try the netbook version, either you like it or hate it | 02:47 |

| c3l | whompapotamus: ah yeah, it does =) but some tools give users who are members of certaing groups special properties, such as being a member of the admin, right? but ther is probably no way to centrally see what tools use what groups? | 03:37 |
| lubuser | anyone know of this bug? or any bugs effecting ehci? | 03:38 |
| epinky | c3l: ls -l , getfacl ,there are not such a global privileges, maybe in RBAC but I doubt you meant that? every object(regular file, directory, link, device,etc) has specific permissions for user, group and all the others. | 03:38 |

| whompapotamus | for instance - does /bin/bash care if you are in the "wheel" group...? what is the "wheel" group anyway - who uses it? | 03:39 |
| Castbound | ilovefairuz any further ideas? | 03:39 |
| ilovefairuz | Castbound: looking into some docs | 03:39 |
| whompapotamus | c3l: there are certain groups with special meaning specific to the distro that you are using... like root | 03:40 |
| whompapotamus | c3l: or "users" | 03:40 |
| c3l | whompapotamus: yeah, so how do I find out more about those groups? | 03:40 |
| lubuser | ubuntu devs don't look at bugs much, do they? | 03:41 |
| c3l | what does it mean, being a member of users, or admin? | 03:41 |
| whompapotamus | c3l: applications will usually give notes as to what groups are relevant to them (the os documentation will as well) | 03:41 |
| lubuser | ubuntu has a rep for ignoring bugs | 03:41 |
| scribe | I'm having a very odd problem with setcap and core dumps. It seems any file I set any capabilities to will no longer dump core. Does this ring a bell for anyone? | 03:42 |
| scribe | you can easily experiment with this: ulimit -c unlimited; /bin/sleep 2000&; pkill -11 sleep (should dump core) | 03:42 |
| maco | lubuser: there are many thousand times more bugs than devs | 03:42 |
| maco | lubuser: fewer than 200 developers | 03:42 |
| scribe | sudo setcap "-CAP_SYS_NICE+ep" /bin/sleep (then try the above again and no core is dumped) | 03:42 |

| craigbass1976 | alsem, I can set you up a wide open server, but that's about it | 03:43 |
| c3l | whompapotamus: lets take users as a specific example, where do I find out what this groups properties are? | 03:43 |
| rossasbill | whas up | 03:44 |
| maco | lubuser: #ubuntu-bugs is the place to go if you want to discuss triaging/fixing bugs. particularly if you've found trivial ones, its great to tag them bitesize or if there's a patch attached its in a good position to be fixed relatively quickly | 03:44 |
| lubuser | maco: oh, ok, thanks | 03:44 |
| th0r | c3l: it doesn't quite work like that. If you write a script and give it permissions 750, then only the user and group of that script can execute it. | 03:44 |
| whompapotamus | c3l: the users group (if your using ubuntu) is recognized as a non-admin group | 03:44 |
| emma | did they replace the ubuntu-restricted-extras package with something? | 03:45 |
| c3l | th0r: yeah, but there are certain groups that involve more than that. for example admin | 03:45 |
| xangua | craigbass1976: hava onclick button¿¿ then install the java plugin for the browser | 03:45 |
| c3l | whompapotamus: okay, what about the admin group | 03:45 |
| maco | lubuser: there is a very large backlog of patches on launchpad, but Operation Cleansweep and the patch review team in #ubuntu-reviews are working their way through them. a few hundred have been reviewed and forwarded to appropriate upstreams so far | 03:45 |
| xangua | emma: they who¿¿ replace with what¿¿ | 03:46 |
| alsem | Craigbass1976: Since it is my home I have no need to protect it. Here is the problem. When I go to Network I get the file browser screen with Windows Network icon.

| emma | i don't see the ubuntu-restricted-extras package | 03:46 |
| th0r | c3l: and if you look through the executables in the system, you will find some that belong to the group admin, and only members of that group can get to those functions | 03:46 |

| c3l | whompapotamus: okay its quite simple them, and that is sudo access I guess. one last question and then Im all happy, whats the adm group? | 03:48 |
| alsem | Craigbass1976: I am on the U10.04 Machine. Name al-toshiba. Running Ubuntu 10.04 | 03:48 |

| xangua | craigbass1976: did you install the java PLUGIN¿¿ | 03:49 |
| craigbass1976 | alsem, ok. I just wasn't sure if it was the windows box yelling about the linux box not serving out files. | 03:49 |
| whompapotamus | c3l: again, i can chown any folder, file or application to be in any group i want - if i am a member of that group i inherit those rights | 03:49 |
| xangua | craigbass1976: sun-java6-plugin | 03:50 |

| lubuser | anyway, if no one wants to fix it, I'm going back to Debian Sqeeze where they at least dealt with the bug to some extent... my usb drives drop to 1.1 speed but at least I can use them | 03:51 |
| xangua | craigbass1976: indeed | 03:51 |
| c3l | whompapotamus: hm, so being a member of admin is not to have sudo access? | 03:51 |
| whompapotamus | c3l: again, its what adm means to the distro - nothing more | 03:51 |
| craigbass1976 | alsem, are you sharing out from the windows box correctly? | 03:51 |
| craigbass1976 | xangua, thanks, in process | 03:51 |
| whompapotamus | c3l: sudo is an application | 03:51 |

| craigbass1976 | xangua, this will make my wife very happy if it works | 03:51 |

| maco | lubuser: and whats the fix in debian? | 03:52 |
| emma | maco multiverse is in there | 03:52 |
| maco | lubuser: if you can point me to an ubuntu bug and matching fix in debian, i can make sure the people who need to see it do so | 03:52 |
| whompapotamus | c3l: which can keep track of admin commands, limit commands, and the like | 03:52 |

| maco | rsyring: thatd probably be what you want | 03:58 |
| whompapotamus | c3l: anytime | 03:58 |
| c3l | epinky: and thanks for that | 03:58 |
| lubuser | maco:? | 03:58 |
| rsyring | maco: so a server's auth mechanism can be based on ldap instead of the local accounts? | 03:58 |
| maco | rsyring: i believe so | 03:59 |
| lubuser | maco: well, bug might be in Squeeze but I have to mount manually | 03:59 |
| rsyring | maco: k, I will check that out...thanks | 03:59 |
| lubuser | maco: sorry, if I said things incorrectly... do you understand? | 03:59 |
| maco | lubuser: have to mount manually? put a comment on the bug report telling exactly how the behaviour varies between ubuntu and squeeze | 03:59 |
| lubuser | maco: not sure if the drives should mount automatically but they don't | 03:59 |
| lubuser | maco: okay | 03:59 |
| whompapotamus | nopz: press alt+f1 and drop to a command prompt | 04:00 |
| maco | lubuser: also, "apport-collect 614180" can automatically add lots of useful info to the bug report | 04:00 |
| nopz | whompapotamus, okay then what? | 04:00 |
| whompapotamus | nopz: type sudo Xorg -configure | 04:01 |
| nopz | whompapotamus, I already did that to create a new config file. So i'm back to original config. | 04:01 |

| nopz | But the nvidia driver isn't activated then. | 04:02 |
| craigbass1976 | xangua, how do I know ff is running right with the java plugin? I restarted it, but was there something else I had to do? | 04:02 |

| whompapotamus | nopz: see if this directory exists: cd /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d | 04:03 |
| xangua | craigbass1976: just restart your browser, still doesn't work¿ | 04:03 |
| alsem | craigbass1976: Thanks. I was on the windows machine and couldn't locate any thing like that. But the Roswell UFO folder I did set up to be shared. What this unable to mount location means I'm not sure. Do I need to have something in media for it to attach to? | 04:04 |
| craigbass1976 | xangua, no | 04:04 |
| nopz | whompapotamus, No etc/X11 does,lol just not xorg.conf.d | 04:04 |

| nopz | whompapotamus, Okay will do. | 04:05 |
| craigbass1976 | alsem, right click on the roswell folder and do properties. Fins out what the share name is. Find otu what the ip address of the windows box is. then try (in a terminal on the linux box) sudo mount -t smbfs //192.blahbalh/sharename /mnt But wait, smbfs might not be the protocol anymore, I think it changed. Anyone? | 04:06 |
| russ | is there an apt command to list all the installed packages? | 04:06 |
| nopz | whompapotamus, done. | 04:06 |
| whompapotamus | nopz: sudo nvidia-x (you will need to press tab here - forgot the is its nvidia-xconfig) | 04:06 |

| maco | lubuser: knowing how the kernel triager works, id expect an info request friday or monday | 04:08 |
| lubuser | maco: kernel triager? | 04:08 |
| whompapotamus | nopz: are you running the nevou open source driver for linux | 04:08 |
| nopz | whompapotamus, I'll give it another shot though and report back, i've never completely rmed xorg.conf b4 nvidia-xconfig so will give it a go. Lol. Thanks. | 04:08 |
| sheepdog | can anyone else currently access the Ubuntu One music store under Lucid? | 04:08 |
| lubuser | maco: maybe a chance in the kernel caused discrepancy? | 04:08 |
| whompapotamus | nopz: that should work | 04:08 |
| maco | lubuser: the person on the kernel team who automatically gets emails about all bugs marked for the kernel | 04:08 |
| sacarlson | russ: apt-cache pkgnames | 04:09 |
| nopz | whompapotamus, Not that i know, again, a way to check? | 04:09 |
| lubuser | maco: i see.. | 04:09 |
| whompapotamus | nopz: after nvidia-xconfig creates the new file - reboot - x should load | 04:09 |
| lubuser | maco: probably minor issue because my hardware is causing problem but still, the point is ...ehci fails but doesn't drop down to ohci | 04:09 |
| whompapotamus | nopz: if not, then download the binary and run the installer at the shell prompt | 04:10 |
| lubuser | maco: that's what I figure... dunno if that's an accurate explanation :) | 04:10 |
| nopz | whompapotamus, Okay will try. I was having problems b4 this with x not starting and giving me a blinking screen, after fresh install and update now I don't get blinking screen just this. | 04:10 |
| laughter | what 's wrong with my top panel? there are white lines and dots. any help is appreciated? http://imgur.com/9qD0u | 04:10 |
| nopz | whompapotamus, Okay. I'll let you know how it goes. | 04:10 |
| whompapotamus | nopz: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 04:11 |
| whompapotamus | nopz: this will tell you why X is crashing | 04:11 |
| sheepdog | laughter: can you move the lines and dots? | 04:11 |
| sheepdog | what happens when you click on them? | 04:12 |
| laughter | sheepdog, i cannot | 04:12 |
| laughter | nothing | 04:12 |
| lubuser | maco: if the usb 2.0 port is working, there'd be no problem... I think the issue is when usb 2.0 port doesn't work, there's no code/program to drop down to ohci | 04:12 |
| sheepdog | howabout the blank spaces inbetween the lines and dots? | 04:12 |
| sheepdog | it looks like the background image of the bar has a line through it | 04:13 |
| laughter | nothing, i cant move cardapio(my menu applet) | 04:13 |
| laughter | i usually can | 04:13 |
| sheepdog | what happens when you change gtk themes? | 04:13 |
| skorea2131 | hey yall | 04:13 |
| sacarlson | lubuser: maco I have changed from usb 2.0 to 1.0 before you can disable 2.0 I don't recall how I did it. it made my wifi work all the time in 1.0 and crashed intermitent in 2.0 usb . this was a via driver problem | 04:14 |
| laughter | umm, well i switched from elementary to ambiance and that is when the dots and lines appeared | 04:14 |
| whompapotamus | laughter: create another panel by right-clicking on the top panel and see if lines appear - if not - kill the top panel and re-add all of your applets to the new one | 04:14 |
| laughter | whompapotamus, no lines on the new panel | 04:15 |
| alsem | craigbass1976: The path is \\Pat-Toshiba\Roswell UFO IPv4 is 192.168.1.1 How do I find the IP for PAT-??? Also checked Synaptic and there is no cifs loaded but most everything with Samba is loaded. | 04:15 |
| lubuser | sacarlson: oh? I'm not sure how, though | 04:15 |
| laughter | whompapotamus, thanks | 04:15 |
| whompapotamus | laughter: create all of you applets on the new one and delete the old one | 04:15 |
| sheepdog | meanwhile, can anyone access the ubuntu one music store? | 04:16 |
| sheepdog | I'm seeing an internal server error | 04:16 |
| lubuser | sacarlson: the usb 2 port no longer works but not sure how to disable ehci_hcd driver from trying to use it? | 04:16 |
| laughter | whompapotamus, will do good sir | 04:16 |
| craigbass1976 | alsem, they just changed the protocol name, not the protocol (as far as I know) It happened a couple years ago. Who is PAT? The linux box or the windows box? 1.1 is a computer, not a router? | 04:16 |
| sacarlson | lubuser: maco: usb 1.0 works ok it's just slower. if you use it hooked to a hard disk I guess you will need 2.0 | 04:16 |
| lubuser | the module is now in the kernel? so, when I try to remove the module, there's a fatal error? | 04:16 |
| emma | Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "ubuntu-restricted-extras" | 04:17 |
| emma | why can't aptitude find that package? | 04:17 |
| lubuser | sacarlson: yes, usb 1.0 and 1.1 works but the prob is the drive is usb 2 but the usb driver is not switching to the lower speed in order to mount the drive | 04:17 |
| rww | emma: do you have the multiverse repository enabled? have you done sudo aptitude update recently? | 04:18 |
| Hoober | Question: I installed NASM, but how do I launch it? | 04:18 |
| xangua | emma: tried reload repository¿¿ sudo apt-get update | 04:18 |
| alsem | craigbass1976:PAT-Toshiba is the Windows Vista box. How do I tell the difference? When I had the D-Link router the 1.1 was it. But with this NEtgear I'm not sure what its number is and I don't know how to find out in windows. | 04:18 |
| Athar | Hoober: you launch it with "nasm" | 04:18 |
| craigbass1976 | alsem, open a dos window and type ipconfig | 04:19 |
| lubuser | sacarlson: that's how I understand it, anyway... not sure if it's right...but, my point is, in Debian, it will drop down to usb 1.1 (or 1.0?) and mount if I do it manually | 04:19 |
| lubuser | the drive becomes detected and I often have to mount manually | 04:19 |
| JonathanYC | Hello! As apt seems to have been overrun by some ubuntu-haters, could anyone tell me how apt identifies newer versions of packages for things like firefox nightly builds? | 04:20 |
| Hoober | nasm: error: no input file specified | 04:20 |
| Hoober | type `nasm -h' for help | 04:20 |
| lubuser | but, some instances if I turn it on during boot up, it mounts automatically ... but, i tested this and it's not consistent... not sure what conditions I need... frustrating | 04:20 |
| sacarlson | lubuser: oh ok then no use trying to keep usb 1.0 working. lspci and see if he uses via chips in his usb stuf. I'm not sure they ever fixed. oh then maybe I should give you the comand I used to manualy change to usb 1.0 | 04:20 |
| emma | is partner medibuntu? | 04:20 |
| emma | or rather, is medibuntu in 'partner' ? | 04:21 |
| nisstyre65 | alsem: route -n | 04:21 |
| JonathanYC | No one knows? lol | 04:21 |
| nisstyre65 | the router IP address is the Default Gateway | 04:21 |
| rww | emma: nope. partner is a Canonical repository containing closed-source software. medibuntu is a third-party repository containing various packages that can't be distributed with Ubuntu for legal reasons. | 04:21 |
| xangua | emma: no and no | 04:21 |
| nisstyre65 | oh sorry you're on windows | 04:21 |
| JonathanYC | You don't know how apt, one of the most important pieces of software on ubuntu | 04:21 |
| nisstyre65 | nevermind | 04:21 |
| JonathanYC | works? | 04:21 |
| lubuser | $ lspci -> pastebin | 04:21 |
| JonathanYC | That's just horrible : | 04:21 |
| JonathanYC | :/* | 04:21 |
| psycho_oreos | JonathanYC, whenever there's apt-get update it retrieves new packages list that are marked by different mtime or something.. if its different new package list is retrieved and then is scanned for any new versions comparing to installed ones imo | 04:22 |
| lubuser | http://pastebin.com/rmy1dyLb | 04:22 |
| JonathanYC | psycho_oreos: Ah, that makes sense. So even if something was numbered 1.0 but had a more recent mtime than 3.0, it would still install? | 04:23 |
| JonathanYC | I'm not being sarcastic, I'm genuinely curious | 04:23 |
| sacarlson | lubuser: this comand forces to use usb 1.0 or did back when I used ubuntu 7.X modprobe -r ehci_hcd | 04:23 |
| tesuji | does anyone know the options to lsof to see specifically what files are being written to on disk and by what process | 04:23 |
| psycho_oreos | JonathanYC, well at that time it would then depend on the user, if the user wants updates to be automatically installed, it will be | 04:23 |
| emma | rww, xangua ahh.. okay. | 04:23 |
| tesuji | lsof has hundreds of options | 04:23 |
| lubuser | http://pastebin.com/zxVXigUs | 04:24 |
| JonathanYC | psycho_oreos: Cool, thanks a bunch. :) | 04:24 |
| psycho_oreos | JonathanYC, I think most night builds, like chromium for example has dates on filenames as well | 04:24 |
| emma | rww, xangua, im betting the reason that it wasn't finding ubuntu-restricted-extras is because i had not yet done an update. | 04:24 |
| lubuser | sacarlson: that doesn't work in ubuntu anymore...at least, not 10.04 | 04:24 |
| psycho_oreos | err chromium from ppa | 04:24 |
| JonathanYC | psycho_oreos: Cool. Thanks. :) | 04:24 |
| sacarlson | lubuser: ok sorry that's all I got | 04:24 |
| lubuser | FATAL: Module ehci_hcd not found. | 04:25 |
| lubuser | sacarlson: that's what I get when I try that command. | 04:25 |
| emma | rww: xangua , i thinki usually i do the updates before I start installing from the commandline and this time i tried sudp aptitude install right off the bat. | 04:25 |
| Athar | Hoober: well, typing just that would help, don't you think... | 04:25 |
| psycho_oreos | JonathanYC, example: chromium-browser_6.0.475.0~svn20100723r53429-0ubuntu1~ucd1~jaunty_i386.deb | 04:25 |
| xangua | emma: that was teh first thing we suggested.............half an hour ago | 04:25 |
| JonathanYC | Oh, OK. Thanks again. :) | 04:25 |
| lubuser | sacarlson: no problem... ubuntu devs will look at it or not... my laptop has problems... :) | 04:25 |
| lubuser | I'll just use it in debian sqeeze until I get a new laptop or ubuntu fixes the bug ;) | 04:26 |
| psycho_oreos | JonathanYC, no worries | 04:26 |
| lubuser | ok, bye folks.. :) | 04:28 |

| Crell | Hi folks. I recently upgraded my 9.10 system to 10.04. As always it's been a bit bumpy, but of note is that PHP seems to not be active anymore. It says it's enabled in the Apache log when I restart apache, but if I visit a PHP page I simply get a download offer back from the web server. Any idea what could have broken? I've not seen this sort of problem in years. | 04:43 |

| maco | ubuntu: * is the usual wildcard on the command line | 05:04 |
| lyhana8 | seem the defautl prompt is not bash :S | 05:04 |
| lapion | If anybody wants to use a dual desktop with 1024x768 and 1280x1024 next to each other (2308x1024) tell them that they better use them on top of each other (1280x1792) | 05:04 |
| maco | lyhana8: yes it is | 05:04 |
| lapion | especially for mks | 05:04 |

| lapion | kms doesn't like any resolution bigger then 2048x2048 | 05:05 |
| rww | lyhana8: It is. bash by default doesn't do tab-completion (which is what I assume you mean) or have a detailed prompt; they're both set in .bashrc | 05:05 |

| rww | so whether you're actually running bash would be best decided with ps or something :) | 05:05 |

| Rickmasta | Hey guys, I think I just made a bad move | 05:13 |
| brandon420 | oh noooesss | 05:14 |
| Sasquatch7 | How would I go about opening a web browser and not have it open over other windows? | 05:14 |
| brandon420 | i have made a few of those | 05:14 |
| Rickmasta | So I bought a vps, like, for my playground, | 05:14 |
| Watson516 | Crell: if you remove the .htaccess file, does it work? | 05:14 |
| Rickmasta | but thing is, I have like NO experience in linux/ubuntu or servers. =/ | 05:14 |
| brandon420 | its not hard | 05:15 |
| brandon420 | you trying to use that to learn? | 05:15 |
| Crell | Watson516: Nope. I renamed .htaccess to just htaccess. No change. Still works in Konqueror but not Firefox. | 05:15 |
| Rickmasta | So I'm trying to install Rubystacks | 05:15 |
| lapion | tazman1a, try using lubuntu | 05:15 |
| Rickmasta | http://rubyworks.rubyforge.org/installation/ubuntu.html, | 05:15 |
| Rickmasta | and it says "Point your package manager to RubyWorks APT repository. Open file /etc/apt/sources.list in a text editor, and add this line to it:" | 05:16 |
| Hardik | rww: any luck finding out what the problem could be? | 05:16 |
| Rickmasta | How the hell do I do that from a vps? lol | 05:16 |
| brandon420 | use vnc? | 05:16 |
| maco | Rickmasta: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 05:16 |
| rww | Hardik: sorry, I got distracted. I only know about the BCM43xx series (which are the most popular ones these days); sorry :( | 05:16 |
| lapion | tazman1a, but for questions regarding lubuntu please join #lubuntu | 05:16 |
| Hardik | ok thanx for responding | 05:17 |
| maco | Rickmasta: at the bottom when it says ^ followed by some letter? The ^ means "ctrl" so like ^O means ctrl+O saves | 05:17 |
| Rickmasta | ah, swee | 05:17 |
| maco | Rickmasta: im assuming you mean from a terminal... | 05:17 |
| Rickmasta | Yup | 05:17 |
| maco | Rickmasta: you may want to have a look at the the official ubuntu server book | 05:17 |
| Rickmasta | WriteOut, means save? | 05:17 |
| sacarlson | Rickmasta: I just use gem to install stuf in ruby. some gem require having libs that I just use standard ubuntu repository | 05:17 |
| Sasquatch7 | How would I go about opening a web browser and not have it open over other windows? But in the background. | 05:18 |
| sacarlson | Sasquatch7: oh maybe you are looking for a headless web browser | 05:19 |
| Sasquatch7 | sacarlson: what is that? | 05:19 |
| ubuntu | I use the amd64 live distro and I want make grep only search in SAM files | 05:20 |
| Sasquatch7 | sacarlson: just want to open chromium in the background behind the current window i'm in. Can't seem to figure out how. | 05:20 |
| sacarlson | Sasquatch7: that's a browser that dosn't use a window envirnment | 05:20 |
| Watson516 | Crell: Sorry, I have no idea what would cause that...are the headers set correctly? Maybe Firefox is more strict? | 05:21 |
| Sasquatch7 | sacarlson: I see. | 05:21 |
| sacarlson | Sasquatch7: why must it be chromium? are you loging into something? | 05:21 |
| Sasquatch7 | sacarlson: no it can be firefox. | 05:21 |
| Watson516 | Crell: is it just the index or any php? | 05:21 |
| san_ | Sasquatch right click on the top and check "Use system title bar and borders" | 05:22 |
| san_ | Sasquatch7: right click on the top ( blue top of the chrome browser) and check "Use system title bar and borders" | 05:23 |
| === 15SAAM6WT is now known as haiku | ||
| Sasquatch7 | san_: Oh ok thanks. | 05:24 |
| === haiku is now known as hiku | ||
| Crell | Watson516: Other PHP files work fine, as does index.php if I access it directly. | 05:24 |
| Sasquatch7 | san_: So now how do I have it open in the background on my desktop? | 05:24 |
| Crell | I'm not sure how to check the headers in Konqueror... | 05:24 |
| Crell | Watson516: The return mimetype is text/html it looks like, according to wget. | 05:25 |
| === Naenyn is now known as iNaenyn | ||
| san_ | oops, sorry I thought, you wanted it on top of others, if you mean background process: google-chrome & | 05:26 |

| jamie | Hey, anyone to help with a laptop sleep issue with 10.04? When I wake from sleep I have to reconnect to wifi :-( and it asks for PW again... (my SSID is hidden and I have a WPA2 10 char aphanumeric pw) | 05:27 |
| Sasquatch7 | san_: I'm using that already and the browser opens in the foreground no matter what window I'm currently in. | 05:27 |
| Watson516 | Crell: how are you accessing index when it doesn't work? | 05:27 |
| Crell | Watson516: Going to http://localhost/~me/foo/ in Firefox. | 05:28 |
| san_ | and always on top is checked for the current window? | 05:28 |
| sacarlson | Crell: I asume you have php installed in apache2? did you try the php info test? | 05:28 |
| Crell | sacarlson: Yep. If I go to ~/me/foo/index.php, the page loads fine. | 05:28 |
| Sasquatch7 | san_: Yes. | 05:28 |
| san_ | worked for me | 05:28 |
| jamie | If I can't fix this, I might have to switch distro's. and I HATE rpm :-( | 05:28 |
| Crell | jamie: I know the feeling. :-/ | 05:29 |
| uncle_sin | i hate rpm too | 05:29 |
| sacarlson | Crell: so like a file with <?php phpinfo(); ?> works? | 05:29 |
| hiku | jamie: I've been having the same issue with 10.04 32bit | 05:29 |
| LucasCampos | Hello | 05:29 |
| Crell | sacarlson: Yes. | 05:29 |
| san_ | opened window1, set allways on top, and then clicked to launch another chrome and it opened behind the current window | 05:30 |
| jamie | Crell: I have an openSuSE DVD right next to me... but I can't bring myself to kill a deb box :-( | 05:30 |
| jamie | I'm on 32 bit as well for the laptop. (the desktop is wired in, so no problems there) | 05:30 |
| hiku | jamie: how about Mint Linux.. don't think they are having the same issues but I'm not sure | 05:30 |
| LucasCampos | How to edit the grub? I have like eight entries for Ubuntu, two for each Linux-header | 05:30 |
| Crell | jamie: GMTA. :-) But I am going to a conference in 2 weeks and this is not a good time to be switching distros. | 05:30 |
| abhijit | !grub2 | LucasCampos | 05:30 |
| ubottu | LucasCampos: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Ubuntu 9.10. For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 05:30 |
| sacarlson | crell but now when you go through the apache2 server? | 05:30 |
| san_ | ctrl+N also works | 05:30 |
| Crell | sacarlson: Er, what do you mean through the apache2 server? | 05:30 |
| sacarlson | Crell: do you have apache2 installed? | 05:31 |
| Crell | sacarlson: Yes. This is an upgrade from 9.10. | 05:31 |
| Crell | Which was working fine (at least in this regard). | 05:31 |
| psycho789 | whats a good burning program in ubuntu | 05:32 |
| jamie | hiku: I tried Peppermint (think it was ICE) and couldn't even connect in the first place | 05:32 |
| Sasquatch7 | san_: attempted all of that, just doesn't seem to work for me. | 05:32 |
| Sasquatch7 | san_: thanks. | 05:32 |
| jamie | Brasero?... wait, is there a linux version of IMGBurn? | 05:32 |
| abhijit | psycho789, brasero | 05:32 |
| sacarlson | Crell: so in your browser if you go to http://localhost ? | 05:32 |
| HeliusCron | can anyone offer some sound help | 05:33 |
| sacarlson | crell: I'm not sure your server is local sorry | 05:33 |
| san_ | Sasquatch7: not at all | 05:33 |
| hiku | jamie: not sure about imgburn but are you referring to an iso burner program? Basero is great for that | 05:33 |
| Crell | sacarlson: That works fine in both browsers. | 05:33 |
| hiku | !ask | HeliusCron | 05:33 |
| ubottu | HeliusCron: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 05:33 |
| Crell | It's JUST an unspecified file falling back to index.php in Firefox. Konqueror is fine. | 05:33 |
| psycho789 | abhijit, ah thanks, didnt see that at first look | 05:34 |
| === ubuntu__ is now known as ubuntu | ||
| jamie | hiku: imgburn does iso to cd/dvd, dvd/cd to iso, cd to cd, etc, etc... it's like VLC but for optical drives ;-) | 05:34 |
| HeliusCron | when I close apps or web pages the sound just keeps going even though the whole window is closed, why? | 05:34 |
| hiku | jamie: nice... | 05:34 |
| HeliusCron | happens in the music player and web pages | 05:34 |
| jgornick | Anyone here know Samba pretty well in terms of permissions. I can't seem to persist group permissions when I want to copy over new files from my Ubuntu 10.04 machine (with permanent mounted share) to my FreeNas server running Samba. | 05:34 |
| undecim | HeliusCron: The plugin is still running for a few seconds after closing the browser | 05:34 |
| will_ | Hey, guys, I think I could cook an egg on my laptop, anyone know how to force the OS to run the fan faster, also ACPI always reports 27C no mater what | 05:35 |
| jamie | Crell: was that a warning to stay away from Novell? or just to wait a bit in general? | 05:35 |
| abhijit | bye | 05:35 |
| Sasquatch7 | How would I open a program in the terminal but have a program open in another workspace? | 05:35 |
| HeliusCron | na this is like 5 minutes still going now | 05:35 |
| Crell | jamie: No, just that the timing is rather poor for me. :-) | 05:35 |
| sacarlson | Crell: this may be a stupid request but did you try rename the index.php file to another name xindex.php and try the firefox again? I have had cache problems in some files | 05:35 |
| Crell | Hm. | 05:35 |
| undecim | HeliusCron: Then maybe the plugin or firefox itself never closed. Try pressing alt+f2 and typeing "killall firefox-bin" | 05:35 |
| Crell | Let me try killing Firefox entirely. | 05:35 |
| HeliusCron | well its the music player still running too even tho i closed that too | 05:36 |
| sacarlson | Crell: I fixed it with a header change in the file to make no time for cache | 05:36 |
| jamie | so anyone else have a problem (or solution) to the non-autoconnect for wifi? is there a .config file somewhere I could tap into? | 05:36 |
| Crell | Hm. | 05:36 |
| Hoober | odd i can't change my directory to the folder named ASM i put on my desktop | 05:36 |
| HeliusCron | both were steaming sound from the web | 05:36 |
| Crell | Do you recall the directive? | 05:36 |
| HeliusCron | streaming | 05:36 |
| undecim | HeliusCron: Your desktop music player? That minimizes to the indicator | 05:36 |
| * Crell doesn't often play with http headers. | 05:37 | |
| HeliusCron | I 'closed' it | 05:37 |
| HeliusCron | nm i see it up top | 05:37 |
| undecim | HeliusCron: Pressing the X button still minimizes it to the panel | 05:37 |
| undecim | You close the window, but the player is still in the background | 05:37 |

| Crell | hiku: I think the problem isn't Apache, it's firefox. | 06:09 |
| hiku | Crell: oh strange | 06:09 |
| Crell | Hang on, I'm just going to reboot the entire laptop and see if Firefox gets the message. | 06:09 |
| hiku | Crell: =) ok | 06:09 |
| Crell | Catch you on the flipside. | 06:09 |
| hiku | Crell: you do that while I do the unthinkable. upgrade/downgrade my 10.04 to mint linux 9 =) just for the heck of it | 06:10 |
| Crell | You are a sick sick man. | 06:10 |
| hiku | Crell: =) | 06:10 |
| hiku | Crell: I just want to see if it will work | 06:10 |
| * Crell once had a roommate who upgraded his Red Hat box to Debian while it was running, without rebooting it. | 06:10 | |
| * [zz] pokes channel | 06:10 | |
| Crell | I think he spent about 4 months running it before rebooting to see if it worked. | 06:10 |
| sacarlson | hiku: maybe try in vertualbox so you don't break something you need | 06:10 |
| hiku | sacarlson: yeah I'm not to worried about it. this is my trash laptop... | 06:11 |
| hiku | sacarlson: I beat it up daily. | 06:11 |
| sacarlson | hiku: ya can't beat that | 06:12 |
| disappearedng | hey let say I am behind my router right now and my router's address is 192.168.1.1 My modem, which the router is connected, is at 192.168.0.1 How do I access my modem from my current connection now? | 06:14 |
| hiku | sacarlson: ok all done. time to reboot and see if going from 10.04 to Linux mint 9 works | 06:14 |
| makson | has anyone used this on ubnutu to make a jail http://www.jmcresearch.com/projects/jail/howto.html | 06:15 |
| Crell | Well that still doesn't work. | 06:16 |
| Crell | But if I move the code to a different directory name, it works. | 06:16 |
| Crell | To me that indicates that Firefox is totally FUBAR. | 06:16 |

| Raptors | Hey guys | 06:41 |
| dodecanesand | i'm a doctor not a programmer | 06:42 |
| Raptors | Is there a way to block a program from getting internet access? | 06:42 |
| Mr_Sonoma | where does fetchmail put mail messages? what folder? | 06:42 |
| Legendary_Bibo | bullgard4: There's buttons on the top, you just click on the one of the far left | 06:42 |
| Legendary_Bibo | Raptors: firewall settings | 06:42 |
| bullgard4 | Raptors: There are several. Depends on your special program and other constraints of your situation and desires. | 06:43 |

| Raptors | I want to use a SCII crack but I need to block SC from getting internet access so it doesn't update | 06:43 |
| UziMonkey | unplug the cable | 06:44 |
| UziMonkey | easiest solution.. | 06:44 |
| Legendary_Bibo | Raptors: We don't condone illegal stuff or whatever | 06:44 |
| Flannel | Raptors: Piracy is offtopic for Freenode, please don't continue this discussion, thanks. | 06:44 |

| Legendary_Bibo | bullgard4: oh that's just what I do, it puts all the packages installed on top in alphabetical order | 06:45 |
| Raptors | alright :( | 06:45 |
| Legendary_Bibo | UziMonkey: it's a grey area | 06:45 |
| Raptors | So much for honestly. Say I want to block another program from access internet how would I go about doing it? | 06:45 |

| starkraving | The last few kernel releases have disabled my wireless. Now because of the new release today, the last one that worked has rolled off of grub. Any way to get it back? | 06:48 |
| JohnRobe1t | do you think 20GB will be enough for an Ubuntu install? | 06:50 |
| UziMonkey | yes | 06:50 |
| UziMonkey | it installs from 1 CD, right? | 06:51 |
| [zz] | so I didn't really get a reply before but maybe different people are watching the channel now. I'm having an error where networking seems to suddenly stop (icon disappears from the notification area altogether and internet access ceases to exist). Restarting GDM fixes it, but anyone know what could be causing it and what could end it? | 06:51 |
| UziMonkey | just don't go crazy installing all the software in the repository and 20GB should be fine | 06:51 |
| red2kic | JohnRobe1t: 2GB is enough too. The question is -- How much of personal data? :o | 06:51 |
| JohnRobe1t | well I was going to keep personal data on a diff partition | 06:51 |
| UziMonkey | then you'll be fine | 06:52 |
| JohnRobe1t | I guess it's plenty | 06:52 |
| red2kic | JohnRobe1t: I keep my personal files + media on different HDD. :) | 06:52 |
| wyrm111_ | great thing about linux in general; you only have to install what you need, or want :) | 06:52 |
| UziMonkey | great thing about windows is it comes with ABSOLUTELY NOTHING :P | 06:53 |
| UziMonkey | (yet Windows 7 wants to take up 20 gigs on install?) | 06:53 |
| wyrm111_ | oh i come with a whole slew oh stuff, all crap | 06:53 |
| JohnRobe1t | win7 is alright | 06:53 |
| JohnRobe1t | I use both | 06:54 |
| rezolute | nothing wrong with win7 | 06:54 |
| rezolute | I'm in it now | 06:54 |
| rezolute | heh | 06:54 |
| JohnRobe1t | used linux soley for about 6 years | 06:54 |
| JohnRobe1t | decided to try windows again | 06:54 |
| JohnRobe1t | bottom line is all OSes suck really | 06:54 |
| UziMonkey | same here, it's great. It just like to eat hard drive space for breakfast, lunch and dinner. | 06:54 |
| wyrm111_ | ...oh. sorry. work? | 06:54 |
| JohnRobe1t | if they all joined forces to make one ultimate OS I'm sure it'd be ok | 06:54 |
| rezolute | 20gig is nothing when you have multiple TB hard drives for cheap | 06:54 |
| bytesaber | I have ubuntu on partition /dev/sda5. That partition has a ready working grub in it's first sector. Without setting up a bootloader in my MBR, is there a cd or something i can use to boot with, so I can trigger the bootloader in /dev/sda5? | 06:55 |
| UziMonkey | true, but why should it? It's my hard drive, I don't want to give most of it to Windows | 06:55 |
| rezolute | most? | 06:55 |
| kc8pxy | UziMonkey: lol :) | 06:55 |
| maco_ | Hey.. I got some questions about installing Ubuntu server.. If I install Ubuntu Server, it connects to the internet automatically? Because Server doesnt have X environmnent, what should I do if it doesnt connect to internet, to install pakages? | 06:56 |
| Jordan_U | bytesaber: Super GRUB2 Disk will allow you to do this (though it will by default load the core.img from the filesystem rather than chainloading from the partition, which is good as a bootloader installed to a partition is unreliable). | 06:56 |
| Jordan_U | maco_: Is it a headless server? If not then you will still have a terminal interface with the keyboard and screen. | 06:58 |
| bytesaber | why is a bootloader in a partition unreliable? | 06:58 |
| kc8pxy | ok, this is getting stupidly annoying.. how do i track down what's crashing all my apps? youtube crashed firefox, randowmly my notifications panel is crashing, show desktop just crashed, and randomly, my xserver keeps crashing, which dumps me back to the login screen. how do i start tracking the culprit? it was working till i installed the updates the update manager recommended. | 06:58 |
| maco_ | Jordan_U Sorry, I speak spanish.. What do u mean 'headless server'? and.. Yes, I have the terminal, but it connects automatically to the eth0? | 06:59 |
| Jordan_U | bytesaber: You can't fit enough code into one sector to read from the filesystem, so you need to use blocklists instead. But filesystems don't make any guarantee that these blocklists will remain valid. | 06:59 |
| Jordan_U | maco_: Maybe you should ask in #ubuntu-es. | 07:00 |
| kc8pxy | maco_: headless server's normally have no monitor attached, and sometimes, not even a video card :) | 07:00 |
| bytesaber | Jordan_U, guess i just have the grub in the first sector to boot that partition. i bumped it into a gpt partition and now i need a way to boot it since rEFIt can't reach it with bios emulatino | 07:01 |
| Jordan_U | kc8pxy: Have you run memtest to rule out bad RAM? | 07:01 |
| maco_ | kc8pxy Yes it has, I just want to know if Ubuntu server, just installed on my pc is going to connect automatically to internet via eth0? | 07:01 |
| HBSC | has anyone here got starcraft2 to run in wine? | 07:02 |
| kc8pxy | Jordan_U: not in the last month. but i test all my machines with memtest before i put them into action. | 07:02 |

| starkraving | Can anyone help get a wireless card working? It worked 6 kernels ago | 07:07 |
| starkraving | Dell Inspiron 6400, Broadcom BCM4328 | 07:07 |
| harlan | is it just me or are there lots of choices/opinions on how an LVM system should be set up? | 07:09 |
| Jordan_U | starkraving: How did you get it working in the first place? | 07:10 |
| starkraving | It used to work, even in 9.10. Then there was a kernel release and it stopped working, I'd have to use grub to choose the second kernel down | 07:10 |
| iflema | starkraving try the STA driver under the hardware drivers gui, IF its not listed install the bcmwl-kernel-source package | 07:10 |
| rww | ubottu: bcm43xx | 07:11 |
| starkraving | Now that the latest kernel was released, the one kernel that my wireless card worked under has rolled off of grub | 07:11 |
| ubottu | Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 07:11 |
| StuckMojo | anyone every tried to or figured out a way to set up a service ip that will automagically move between eth0 and wan0 depending one whether your laptop is docked or not? | 07:11 |
| starkraving | I have the STA driver | 07:11 |
| rww | starkraving: how did you install it? | 07:11 |
| tripleb-mirc | Question. I have windows on a HD. I have a new HD and am going to put Ubuntu on it. At what point do I set up grub to give me a choice of OS when I boot? | 07:11 |
| StuckMojo | so you can ssh in from your desktop and have the connections stay live when you undock? | 07:11 |
| Jordan_U | bytesaber: "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda count=1 bs=440" But dd can be extremely dangerous and I am in no way liable if you accidentily destroy your partition table and lose all your data. | 07:12 |
| Jordan_U | tripleb-mirc: It's done automagically. | 07:12 |
| iflema | starkraving how did you install the driver? The hardware drivers gui? | 07:12 |
| starkraving | umm | 07:13 |
| starkraving | It shows up in my hardware packages, but it's not activated. It's currently set to use the "Broadcom B43 wireless driver" | 07:14 |
| iflema | starkraving thats the problem.... | 07:14 |
| starkraving | I just activated it. I did try that before though, same problem. | 07:14 |
| starkraving | I just activated it, do I need to reboot to try it? | 07:14 |
| bytesaber | Jordan_U, I've done bs=446 to clear a boot sector of a ext3 partition. never have tried zeroing out a MBR. too scare of wiping the partition table. I might give it a try tho >: ) | 07:14 |
| starkraving | I have the command line open | 07:14 |
| bytesaber | works fine for erasing grub or lilo from ext2,3,4 partitions. | 07:15 |
| bytesaber | tried the same on a NTFS partition, i ended up messing up the partition. Not sure what 446 bit NTFS. | 07:15 |
| iflema | starkraving in terminal sudo modprobe -r b43 ssb wl then do sudo modprobe wl | 07:15 |
| === Pupuser402 is now known as mysteriousdarren | ||
| starkraving | FATAL: Module ssb is in use. | 07:16 |
| bytesaber | not sure why 446 broke or (bit too much off) of the NTFS partiton. Was thinking the first 446 bytes was standard. | 07:16 |
| starkraving | Hardware drivers is saying I need to reboot to activate it, guess that's my answer :/ | 07:17 |
| iflema | starkraving restart it..... | 07:17 |
| starkraving | @iflema, thanks, brb | 07:17 |
| bytesaber | thank you Jordan_U | 07:18 |
| Jordan_U | bytesaber: You're welcome. | 07:18 |
| silv3r_m00n | I need an application to view hardware information | 07:20 |
| silv3r_m00n | please suggest a few | 07:20 |
| bytesaber | silv3r_m00n, have you run lspci ? | 07:21 |
| bytesaber | is that info what you're looking for? | 07:21 |
| bytesaber | might have to say sudo | 07:21 |
| silv3r_m00n | ok I remember hardinfo was good | 07:22 |
| starkraving | Okay, I rebooted, and now Hardware Drivers says the STA driver is activated but not in use. The line sudo modprobe -r b43 ssb wl still errors with FATAL: ssb is in use | 07:24 |
| iflema | starkraving thase last two commands where to prevent a reboot only... BCM4328 you say, im thinking bcm4321, in a terminal lspci -vvnn | grep 14e4 | 07:26 |
| nikolam | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu does not return search results now. I am getting timeout errors. | 07:26 |
| rww | nikolam: works fine here | 07:27 |
| starkraving | Broadcom Corporation BCM4328 802.11a/b/g/n [14e4:4328] (rev 01) | 07:27 |

| Crash1hd | hey all ok so I ran gnome-panel in xterminal in xming and now my ubuntu desktop gnome-panel has dissapeared and doesnt seem to want to reappear even on reboot? | 07:28 |
| nikolam | fww enter firefox in the search | 07:28 |
| starkraving | The other hardware driver I added was the one that uses fwcutter | 07:28 |
| Karen_m | when you run AWN, I also have the tabs on the bottom.. how do i disable the other tabs, or is there a way to combo AWN in better? | 07:28 |
| Crash1hd | how do I get my customized gnome-panel back? | 07:28 |
| nikolam | rww, do zou get results on https://launchpad.net/ubuntu when you enter "firefox" to search? | 07:29 |
| starkraving | Broadcom B43 wireless driver was what I used to use back when it worked :/ | 07:29 |
| iflema | starkraving STA is the one for you I think not positive!?!?!?!?!? | 07:29 |
| nikolam | rww, ? | 07:30 |
| starkraving | Right now Hardware Drivers says STA is 'activated but not in use'. Any way to force it to be in use? | 07:30 |
| rww | nikolam: nope | 07:31 |
| DFDGF | ubuntu-cn | 07:32 |
| rww | nikolam: or, to be less ambiguous, yes I get timeouts when I use that search thing | 07:32 |
| wistar | 哈哈哈哈哈 | 07:32 |
| nikolam | rww, so https://launchpad.net/ubuntu does not return search results for some search package names. like firefox. | 07:32 |
| dhruvasagar | Hi, I don't get the grub menu list while booting, I have only Ubuntu installed, but I have several kernels & there are times I would like to go to the recovery console, what do I need to do to get the menu at startup ? | 07:32 |
| nikolam | ok, thanks rww | 07:32 |
| rww | dhruvasagar: hold down shift | 07:33 |
| dhruvasagar | rww: that's it ? | 07:33 |
| Karen_m | How do I disable the bottom tab if I enable AWN? | 07:33 |
| rww | dhruvasagar: yes. technically you only need to do it when GRUB's loading, but I just hold it down from when the computer first powers on. | 07:34 |
| pradeep | dhruvasagar, i think it has to do with the timing grub has | 07:34 |
| iflema | starkraving did your ethernet card show aswell in the lspci output or just the wireless card? | 07:34 |
| nikolam | dhruvasagar, I have something called "login screen settings" in a system menu for setting up timeout upon boot. | 07:34 |
| starkraving | If I do lspci with no arguments they both come up | 07:34 |
| dhruvasagar | pradeep: what timing, I see the bios + post, then a blank screen and then after sometime I get the Ubuntu splash screen...no grub at all | 07:35 |
| iflema | starkraving ok, so no.... | 07:35 |
| dhruvasagar | nikolam: oO i'll look at that | 07:35 |
| === Jackson is now known as Guest53082 | ||
| dhruvasagar | thanks a lot rww pradeep nikolam | 07:35 |
| rww | nikolam, dhruvasager: login screen settings is the timeout for autologin in GDM, it has nothing to do with GRUB | 07:35 |
| KE1HA | dhruvasagar, right when you see the Linux .. .. .. hit and hold the Shift Key, should bring up the Grub menu. | 07:35 |
| nikolam | dhruvasagar, sry, that is, like , for setting X login screen, not for grub. I see now. | 07:35 |
| Guest53082 | hi guys.I have a small problem.Hope someone can help me? | 07:35 |
| nikolam | rww, yes, my mistake | 07:36 |
| starkraving | The weird thing is that with the settings I had before, using the B43 driver, it worked even in 10.04. Then they started updating the kernels and it stopped working | 07:37 |
| Guest53082 | what can cause a client to see the server one day then the next day not, yet nothing has been changed. | 07:37 |
| nibbler__ | Guest53082, this is WAY to few information, network topology in between? WHO claims nothing has changed? seen by what protocol, can you ping? | 07:38 |
| Guest53082 | my client machines cant see the server anymore. | 07:39 |
| iflema | starkraving the chipset 14e4:4328 is supported by b43 but no mention of card type bcm4328 being supported | 07:40 |
| iflema | starkraving have you tried posting on the ubuntu forumns | 07:41 |
| starkraving | Not posting new no, I've read them but everything is ancient | 07:42 |
| KE1HA | Guest53082, what services were you using that allowed the clients to see the server initially, and is that service still running ? | 07:42 |
| Guest53082 | samba only | 07:42 |
| starkraving | Even the official help page is ancient | 07:42 |
| skor_ | when I boot the 10.04 live cd the screen goes black but the welcome music plays. I'm assuming the nvidia graphics card is the culprit. Is there a way to work around this ? | 07:42 |
| starkraving | The one that ubuntubot mentioned above :) | 07:42 |
| KE1HA | That's where you should start, check that its still running ro somethign hasn't changed there. | 07:42 |
| SJr | I'm trying to encode into h264, but for some reason I can't seem to get ffmpeg to realize that it can encode to it. | 07:42 |
| skor_ | this is a power pc box if that makes any difference | 07:42 |
| Guest53082 | l check to make sure that nothing had changed there and all is in order there | 07:43 |
| nikolam | dhruvasagar, there is a timeout setting in /etc/grub.d/00_header , as per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 07:43 |
| starkraving | So, I'm left with somehow getting the old kernel to show up in grub, do you know if that's possible at least? | 07:43 |

| KE1HA | Guest53082, if your server install is solid, rarely should you have to restart the whole server, only the services that reside on it. If your having to restart the server all the time, somethign is nto right on the build fer sure. | 07:46 |
| sacarlson | matrix_: iface eth0 inet static | 07:46 |
| sacarlson | matrix_: there are examples in the comments in the file | 07:46 |

| Guest53082 | that command gave me comes back telling me that no such file or directtory | 07:47 |
| sacarlson | matrix_: for the DNS you need to modify /etc/resolv.conf file | 07:47 |
| KE1HA | lol .. thought u were HSBC fer a minute, :-) thought the banks were after us :-) | 07:48 |
| Guest53082 | that was the first time l have restarted it | 07:48 |
| KE1HA | Guest53082, do a ps -A | grep smbd | 07:49 |
| livingdaylight | I have 8year old child. Can you recommend some linux games? No, not frozen bubble - thank you | 07:49 |
| KE1HA | or ps -aux | grep ambd | 07:49 |
| maco | livingdaylight: have you looked at the games included in edubuntu? | 07:50 |
| Guest53082 | 876 ? 00:00:00 smbd | 07:50 |
| Guest53082 | 910 ? 00:00:00 smbd | 07:50 |
| Guest53082 | that is what l get | 07:50 |
| maco | livingdaylight: a whole bunch of educational games are in there | 07:50 |
| Noob123 | When I resume from suspend on Ubuntu 10.0.4 with kernel 2.6.32-24 keyboard does not respond after attempting to resume. I see console login screen, but keyboard does not respond. I have HP M7760A which has the Phoenix Award BIOS rev. 5.10 and Geforce 7300 GT graphics card. How to resolve? | 07:50 |
| nikolam | dhruvasagar, I think that "show boot splash" is what you were looking for, in that GUI | 07:50 |
| livingdaylight | maco, i have regular ubuntu - but not looking for games for babies or 'educational' games. Proper fun games | 07:51 |
| maco | livingdaylight: battle for wesnoth? | 07:51 |
| KE1HA | Guest53082, hold on a sec. | 07:51 |
| LateNightCreeper | hey everyone.... it's 03:50am down here at the moment..... my eyes are melting.... and i cannot get away this driver related problem ;( | 07:51 |
| Guest53082 | kk | 07:51 |
| livingdaylight | maco, is it good, it works? | 07:51 |
| bet0x | i have an ACER 5551-4873 wich has after installation (10.04) only ethernet up and no wireless, how or where i can get my driver? | 07:51 |
| livingdaylight | I think I tried once and nothing happened. but that was a laptop | 07:51 |
| maco | livingdaylight: yeah its one of those games where you have soldiers and try to build up a fort and take turns attacking | 07:52 |
| KE1HA | Guest53082, just try "sudo restart smbd" and see if that lets you restart. | 07:52 |
| maco | livingdaylight: like Age of Empire, i think? or Civilizations? | 07:52 |
| tensorpudding | battle for wesnoth is probably too hard for an 8 year old | 07:52 |
| LateNightCreeper | it's an Intel 82587DC... I cannot get the network to work..... | 07:53 |
| Guest53082 | smbd start/running, process 3745. that is what l get | 07:53 |
| maco | tensorpudding: i dont think so. i remember playing it at my younger cousins' house when i was 10 | 07:53 |
| maco | tensorpudding: er i mean playing the microsoft equivalents :P | 07:53 |
| bet0x | :/ | 07:53 |
| maco | livingdaylight: frets on fire is another fun one, its like guitar hero | 07:53 |
| tensorpudding | wesnoth has a microsoft equivalent? | 07:53 |
| KE1HA | Guest53082, didit shut down first, then restart ? | 07:53 |
| Guest53082 | nope it just gave me that | 07:53 |
| livingdaylight | i will hav e a look, thx mac | 07:54 |
| livingdaylight | * maco | 07:54 |
| KE1HA | Guest53082, ok: sudo smdb stop then sudo smdb start | 07:54 |
| maco | livingdaylight: gnome-mahjongg as well maybe? | 07:54 |
| maco | tensorpudding: remember "Civilization"? | 07:55 |
| tensorpudding | Civilization wasn't Microsoft. | 07:56 |
| maco | tensorpudding: it was for windows... | 07:56 |
| Guest53082 | is it smbd or smdb? | 07:56 |
| tensorpudding | It was made by MicroProse, and available on quite a number of platforms | 07:56 |
| maco | tensorpudding: i think ms owned Age of Empires though, which is also similar | 07:56 |
| KE1HA | SMBD .. sri | 07:56 |
| bet0x | maco may you help me? you are a ubuntu team member right? | 07:56 |
| tensorpudding | Age of Empires is RTS, right? | 07:57 |
| maco | livingdaylight: the usual solitaire, minesweeper, etc. stuff is available in gnome-games package | 07:57 |
| Guest53082 | k I did it but it didn't give me anything | 07:57 |
| livingdaylight | maco, yea, they're crap and boring | 07:57 |
| KE1HA | Guest53082, also, are these windows machines that are connecting to the server or Linux ? | 07:57 |
| maco | livingdaylight: fair enough | 07:57 |
| livingdaylight | maco, something along empire civilization etc | 07:57 |
| maco | livingdaylight: oh, tuxracer is fun | 07:57 |
| Guest53082 | they are window machines connecting to my ubuntu server | 07:57 |
| maco | livingdaylight: supertux is like mario and supertuxkart is like mario kart as well | 07:58 |
| KE1HA | Guest53082, this does not sound like you have Samba installed properly, how did you install Samba ? | 07:58 |
| tensorpudding | Wesnoth is also hextile based, which was not terribly common | 07:58 |
| Guest53082 | I installed it through the terminal | 07:58 |
| Guest53082 | l found it on the fourms | 07:59 |
| KE1HA | did you install smbfs also ? | 07:59 |
| Guest53082 | no only the sambe | 07:59 |
| Guest53082 | mean samba | 07:59 |

| rocket16 | Krishnandu: Codelite, Geany or Codeblock. But Eclipse is a nice one too, | 08:17 |
| IdleOne | Guest53082: make sure you read those links I sent. | 08:17 |
| rocket16 | Krishnandu: I am from India too. Glad to see more Indians coming here, :) | 08:17 |

| bet0x | Krishnandu, eclipse | 08:17 |
| Krishnandu | rocket16, hehe :) | 08:17 |
| Krishnandu | bet0x, okies..!! | 08:18 |
| Krishnandu | And any alternative for dreamweaver?? | 08:18 |
| rocket16 | Krishnandu: In my opinion, Codeblock is the best, if you want full functionality. For GUIs, Anjuta is the best, and if you want a light IDE, use Geany. | 08:18 |
| Krishnandu | I'm using netbeans for Java | 08:18 |
| livingdaylight | can someone tell me about freeciv? I see gtk and sdl and other versions in synaptic. Which one one do I need? I'm running ooboontoo 10.4 gnome | 08:18 |
| Yioama | Is anonymous advice bad? You could be assisting a terrorist operative! =O | 08:18 |
| Krishnandu | rocket16, okies....something alternative to dreamweaver?? I'm using Netbeans for Java | 08:19 |
| Yioama | Or an immoral ninja, nevertheless... | 08:19 |
| bet0x | Krishnandu, Aptana is the best i think | 08:19 |
| rww | Yioama: you may find #ubuntu-offtopic more receptive to your humor (: | 08:20 |

| Krishnandu | bet0x, rocket16, thanks both of you :) | 08:21 |

| rocket16 | Krishnandu: Also, you can check this link: http://www.osalt.com/dreamweaver | 08:22 |

| roaddogg | whats the best c++ IDE in ubuntu | 08:32 |
| rocket16 | !best | roaddogg | 08:32 |
| ubottu | roaddogg: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 08:32 |
| KE1HA | we just went through this IDE thing a minute ago. | 08:33 |
| roaddogg | i dont know of any | 08:33 |
| roaddogg | i just started using linux today | 08:33 |
| KE1HA | roaddogg, from the posts above: Codelite, Geany, Codeblock or Eclipse | 08:34 |
| rocket16 | roaddogg: No problem. For a light and fast IDE, use Geany. For features, use Codelite or Codeblocks, and for GUI development, use Anjuta. | 08:35 |
| roaddogg | thanks you guys | 08:35 |
| edakiri | roaddogg: Ultimate++ | 08:35 |
| edakiri | roaddogg: Eclipse is unreliable, unmaintainable. Netbeans perhaps. have not used it for C++ yet. It has the most intelligent symbol tracking for C++ (uses debugging symbols) | 08:36 |
| demoneye | Do I need to install something eles for Xorg to work? Looks like it/s not reading my config | 08:37 |
| edakiri | roaddogg: U++ http://www.ultimatepp.org/ . geany is a lightweight option. only tracks symbols of currently loaded files. doxygen you want in any case. is not an IDE | 08:37 |
| roaddogg | edakiri, thanks ill check those out too | 08:38 |

| dinev | hi, everybody. does anybody know why gdm login manager does not show the "hibernate" option when i click on the small red button to the right? there are options to suspend, restart and shutdown the system, but no hibernation. a hibernation option is situated on power-manager, but i'd like it to appear when clicking on the red button. does anybody know how to achieve this? | 09:01 |
| bet0x | how i detect my webcam on ubuntu? | 09:01 |
| rhett | hi | 09:02 |
| rhett | I have ubuntu 9.10 I think. My iphone doesn't work with it. I just plugged it into a 10.04 machine though and it worked. What do I need to make that happen on the 9 machine? | 09:03 |
| minimec | bet0x: on a console: unplug the cam (if possible), plug it in again and look how it is recognized by the system typing 'dmesg' in a console. Check the last 5 lines or so. | 09:04 |
| SwedeMike | rhett: upgrade it? http://www.zdnet.com/blog/hardware/ubuntu-1004-now-with-iphoneipod-touch-support/7502 | 09:04 |
| bet0x | minimec, ignore my question, my webcam (i hate a notebook) is working properly, no configuration needed, tested on cheese :D thanks :D | 09:05 |
| minimec | bet0x: Also you can check 'lsusb'. That should give you a list of all USB devices (internal cams are normally shown as USB devices) | 09:05 |
| rhett | SwedeMike, how do I upgrade it? | 09:05 |
| minimec | bet0x: np ;) | 09:05 |
| hotstew | Why is Ubuntu so awesome? o.O | 09:05 |
| hotstew | It transformed my Pentium D into an i7 | 09:05 |
| rhett | can't I just upgrade rythmbox? | 09:06 |
| SwedeMike | rhett: just go into upgrade manager and it'll have offer to upgrade to 10.04 | 09:06 |
| SwedeMike | rhett: ubuntu does things by release, older releases only get bugfixes, not new features. | 09:07 |
| rhett | any chance it will screw up my system, SwedeMike ? | 09:07 |
| minimec | rhett: If you open the software synaptic in the *System*Administration menu, it should indicate you the possibility to upgrade. | 09:07 |
| SwedeMike | rhett: there is always a risk. | 09:07 |
| kisuke | rhett, i suggest you back up your /home directory before you upgrade | 09:07 |
| rhett | minimec, I see the upgrade offer, what's the likelyhood? | 09:07 |
| rhett | hmm | 09:07 |
| rhett | ok | 09:07 |
| minimec | rhett: What kind of GPU you have in that computer? | 09:08 |
| hsimpa | buenos dias ... | 09:08 |
| rhett | I have an ati | 09:08 |
| rhett | hmm yeah, it's touchy | 09:08 |
| rhett | i better not mess with that, is there a less risky way to just upgrade the iphone part? | 09:08 |
| hsimpa | alguien me puede ayudar a solucionar un serio problema con mi tarjeta broadcom BCM4311? | 09:08 |
| knoppies | rhett, I have had issues upgrading before, I recommend a complete fresh install. The OS still worked, but programs bugged out. | 09:08 |
| minimec | rhett: Are you uing the property driver from ATI or the general opensource ATI driver? | 09:08 |
| rhett | yeah, i just want to upgrade rythm box or something | 09:08 |
| SwedeMike | rhett: not anything that is easily done or which someone can help you step-by-step with in here. | 09:08 |
| oCean_ | !es | hsimpa | 09:09 |
| ubottu | hsimpa: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 09:09 |
| rhett | oy, i was in ati hell for a long time, I don't even remember | 09:09 |
| hsimpa | help broadcom Bcm 4311 | 09:09 |
| ianwizard | Is there a way that I can strip an indavidual partition out of an img file | 09:09 |
| rhett | so, I can't just upgrade rythmm box? | 09:09 |
| minimec | rhett: ATI cards use KMS settings in 10.04 (OpenSource driver). They should normally work without problems... | 09:10 |
| minimec | rhett: I guess you can try the upgrade. | 09:10 |
| SwedeMike | rhett: you CAN, but it's not easy and it's not recommended. You'd have to manually compile it yourself and it might depend on other things and you might break things. | 09:10 |
| rhett | minimec, I can't risk possibly messing up this computer with an os upgrade at the moment | 09:10 |
| rhett | oh, i'd need to compile rythmbox from source ? | 09:11 |
| rhett | hmm | 09:11 |
| hotstew | I get that people cleaned up the menues and that not every graphical customization is shown in settings. | 09:11 |
| rhett | oh well, maybe I'll work out how to do a fresh install on this machine | 09:11 |
| hotstew | Still, I don't get why it's so hard to change anything concerning that. | 09:11 |
| minimec | rhett: Other possibility is to check the hardware with a live CD, befoe the upgrade. You would also be able to use the Iphone via that live CD. | 09:11 |
| hotstew | Like GDM themes or the mouse cursor... | 09:12 |
| rhett | ok, thanks guys | 09:12 |
| rhett | the iphone support is great | 09:12 |

| hotstew | yeah, but where can I change these settings now? | 09:13 |
| knoppies | ekai125, I would guess that its video drivers, but Im no expert. | 09:13 |
| minimec | rhett: As long you're not talking about flash... *rofl* | 09:13 |
| hotstew | Looking at forums, people generally think it's all just gone. | 09:13 |
| kisuke | ekai125, the codecs ubuntu uses arent as optimised as they are on windows | 09:13 |
| ekai125 | so how do i solved this problem? | 09:13 |
| kisuke | ekai125, have you tried the medi buntu drivers? | 09:14 |

| EvaZq | hello | 09:16 |
| EvaZq | i have a problem with ubuntu 10.04 running on my acer laptop, when i close the display of my laptop ubuntu gets sleep and never wake up even if i touch te power button | 09:17 |
| EvaZq | any idea ? | 09:17 |
| knoppies | EvaZq, then you want to turn sleep on lid off. | 09:17 |
| bet0x | pidgin support video chat? | 09:18 |
| minimec | EvaZq: That is a combination of two things. First. Looks like the 'power save' settings are set to send the laptop in 'sleep mode' when closing it. You can change that in the power settings. 2nd: It looks like your computer cannot handle 'suspend' correctly. Often that is a GPU thing. | 09:19 |
| kyle_ | i'm running Windows7 32-bit on a x64 CPU. Wanted to install Win2008Svr x64 in vbox. is this possible or do i need my host OS to be x64 ? (vbox question) - vbox IRC noone around ;( | 09:19 |
| brandon420 | kyle: i dont see why that would be a problem | 09:19 |
| knoppies | kyle_, I think it is possible on some 32 bit hosts, but not sure about 32bit windows. | 09:19 |
| EvaZq | minimec i also think that is something about my GPU | 09:20 |
| EvaZq | becuase i can not change the brightness of my screen | 09:20 |
| brandon420 | but seeing as you dont have a duo core processor its going to run slowly | 09:20 |
| kyle_ | error: VT-x/AMD-V hardware accleration has been enabled, but is not operational | 09:20 |
| brandon420 | there is a app for that evazq | 09:20 |
| minimec | EvaZq: I guess that you use any 'property driver' from ATi/Nvidia, as the opensource drivers normally handle 'suspend' correctly now. | 09:20 |
| EvaZq | actually i have an integrated INTEL video card | 09:21 |
| EvaZq | and i am using the video drivers that came with te distribution i think | 09:21 |

| SiNUX | yes i"m going to do that | 09:25 |
| minimec | Eva KMS stands for KernelModeSettings... You can decide if the GPU driver should use KMS or not by creating a file in /etc/modprobe.d/intel.conf with the following content: options intel modeset=0 | 09:25 |
| brandon420 | hahaha | 09:25 |
| EvaZq | minimec is there a chance to install old distro drivers on lucid ? | 09:25 |
| ekai125 | why i always received this msg "package architecture (i386) does not match system " when i want to install new app | 09:25 |
| minimec | EvaZq: I would not recommend that! | 09:26 |
| SwedeMike | ekai125: because you're trying to install 386 binaries on an amd64 system or the other way around? | 09:26 |
| trojan_spike | ekai125, 32bit o.s trying for 64bit software// | 09:26 |
| minimec | EvaZq: You could also try to install a newer one via PPA -> xorg-edgers PPA. But I also only recommend that, if you know what you are doing. | 09:27 |
| ekai125 | noap.. i've pentium 4 pc | 09:27 |

| shlunk | hi all - i'm having trouble with dual screen in lucid lynx | 10:55 |
| sacarlson | boris-: I"m looking for the mixer I used to set it up. what version of ubuntu are you using | 10:56 |
| shlunk | my second monitor is appearing, but i can't drag stuff to it, right click on it, and it doesn't get included in the cube | 10:56 |
| shlunk | it's really weird | 10:56 |
| jhattara | is there an ftp/sftp capable GUI client that could handle directory synchronization in ubuntu? | 10:56 |

| red2kic | jhattara: You could use UbuntuOne (or DropBox). | 10:57 |
| shlunk | why can't i drag windows onto my second monitor? | 10:57 |
| rooks | thinkstu, if you can vageuly remember if your password was made from normal words than dictionary attack might do, but still its a big if | 10:57 |

| jpds | bost0n: All generalisations are false, including this one. | 10:58 |
| rooks | ubununutunutu, add PATH=.:$PATH to your .bashrc in your home | 10:58 |
| sacarlson | boris-: looks like the aumix will work to setup so you can hear input in realtime. play with the record section and turn up the line or mic you are using as input | 10:58 |
| llutz | thinkstu: bring them in the right order :) sry no idea/recommendation | 10:59 |
| jhattara | red2kic, can UbuntuOne synchronize folders on arbitary server? | 10:59 |
| thinkstu | rooks: the problem that every 3 wrong password KeePass close the password windows, so I can't use dictionary attack | 10:59 |
| dragenov1 | llutz: IT doesn't say its send and receive??? | 10:59 |
| sacarlson | boris: later you will need to play with the realtime kernel and jackd to add realtime sound effects to your guetar | 10:59 |
| boris- | sacarlson: what the heck do i need to do with aumix | 11:00 |
| rooks | thinkstu, then try some sort of brute force attack based on those characters, it will start generatate all possible combinations based on the characters you provided | 11:00 |

| Hoober | Ok so, in NASM i have to write code for linux, and windows separately? | 11:00 |
| sacarlson | boris-: to install aumix just apt-get install aumix | 11:00 |
| nicark | jhattara: You can synchronize with rsync | 11:00 |
| rooks | thinkstu, use some sort of script to do it | 11:00 |
| boris- | did it sacarlson | 11:00 |
| boris- | opened , what now | 11:00 |
| thinkstu | rooks: then I have to try all the possibles ? | 11:00 |
| nicark | jhattara: or if you feel really lazy about it and it's sensible data then use dropbox | 11:01 |
| rooks | thinkstu, im not that deep into security but my bet is that there is already some tool that will do all of that for you | 11:01 |
| nicark | jhattara: I meant to say not sensible data | 11:01 |
| thinkstu | rooks: do you remember this tool name ? | 11:01 |
| sacarlson | boris-: just run aumix after install it should also be in the aplications menu under sound | 11:01 |
| boris- | did it | 11:02 |
| Boromir | Hey guys. Anybody know hoe to get a option similiar to what u hear/stereomix in Windows for your soundcard? I don't wan't to record what I'm listening to, I want to stream what I'm playing to others trough flash, so I need the option as a mic source | 11:02 |
| jhattara | nicark, i'd need a software that can connect to various servers that i have either sftp, ftp or both connections available and synchronize the remote files with local files | 11:02 |
| Boromir | *want | 11:02 |
| boris- | sacarlson: still nothing | 11:02 |
| Boromir | *a flash application | 11:02 |
| thinkstu | rooks: do you remember this tool name ?? | 11:02 |
| sacarlson | boris-: did you play with both playback and record on you line or mic? | 11:02 |
| boris- | ? | 11:02 |
| rooks | thinkstu, i seen few crackers for regular passwords from /etc/shadow, give me again name of that app that you use | 11:02 |
| sacarlson | boris-: or nothing you can't run it? | 11:02 |
| boris- | what ? | 11:02 |
| boris- | i dont get it | 11:03 |
| boris- | if i press record in audacity and later play i can hear the guitar | 11:03 |
| sacarlson | boris-: you don't know how to install it? | 11:03 |
| boris- | install what ? | 11:03 |
| thinkstu | rooks: KeePass Password Safe 2 | 11:03 |
| rooks | k | 11:03 |
| sacarlson | boris-: yes I understand the audacity part but to hear in realtime you need to hear the playback I think with the mic or line that you are using as input | 11:04 |
| boris- | i heard the play in audacity | 11:04 |
| boris- | if thats your playback | 11:04 |
| sacarlson | boris-: yes but you want to hear at the speaker when you input so you need to play with the sound card mixer setings | 11:05 |
| sacarlson | boris-: this is done with mixer software there are many but aumix should work for you if you install it. | 11:05 |
| boris- | i installed it | 11:06 |
| boris- | and ran it | 11:06 |
| werbs | /window stick | 11:06 |
| boris- | i get some text about line in and mic in terminal and balance and so | 11:06 |

| soreau | CatDog: how long ago? | 11:30 |
| sacarlson | boris-: ok sounds like a sound card to me | 11:31 |
| littlepenguin | catdog cam should get initioalized while plugged in..if not the cable could be broken for example | 11:31 |
| wrksx | I just connected throught ssh to a ubuntu server and it says the server must be rebooted. Any idea when do this occurs ? | 11:31 |
| CatDog | littlepenguin, it has worked in the past | 11:31 |
| littlepenguin | wrksx updates maybe | 11:31 |
| littlepenguin | ok catog | 11:31 |
| littlepenguin | catdog do you have a 3nd win pc for example to test the cam | 11:32 |
| sacarlson | boris-: and when you play something like an mp3 they do play but no sound? | 11:32 |
| littlepenguin | 2nd | 11:32 |
| ubununutunutu | after installing qt4make or whatever | 11:32 |
| ubununutunutu | make: /usr/bin/moc-qt4: Command not found | 11:32 |
| ubununutunutu | make: *** [conf4.moc] Error 127 | 11:32 |
| ubununutunutu | when i try to install qbittorent | 11:33 |
| kuttan_ | 11:33 | |
| sacarlson | catdog: littlepenguin: good idea try another computer or even another in vertualbox | 11:33 |
| CatDog | littlepenguin, afrde to say its still under construction (home made pc) just gotta put drivers on it | 11:33 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: is qbittorrent not available in the repositories? | 11:33 |
| littlepenguin | catdog cam should use kernel integrated drivers | 11:33 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: anyway, you need to install the qt4 dev libraries too. | 11:33 |
| soreau | ubununutunutu: Do you have libqt4-dev installed? | 11:33 |
| sacarlson | catdog: littlepenguin: also maybe try another plug if you have more than one on your single computer. | 11:34 |
| ubununutunutu | probably not, is it normally this hard to install things manually? | 11:34 |
| boris- | sacarlson: ye | 11:34 |
| minimec | Chousuke: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=default§ion=all&arch=any&searchon=names&keywords=qbittorrent | 11:34 |
| erUSUL | wrksx: kernel upgrade ? | 11:34 |
| littlepenguin | sacarlson he already tried that | 11:34 |
| CatDog | littlepenguin, i was talking about my windows me pc | 11:34 |
| soreau | ubununutunutu: libqt4-dev is a ubuntu package you can install with apt | 11:34 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: Installing things from source is not hard, but it requires some knowledge most users don't have. | 11:35 |
| littlepenguin | catdog u want to install the cam on win me??? | 11:35 |
| sacarlson | boris-: make sure your sound isn't muted | 11:35 |
| sacarlson | boris-: it was working so we must have broken it with the mixer or something | 11:35 |
| ubununutunutu | where can i get that knowledge/where can i learn how to install things from source? | 11:35 |
| wrksx | erUSUL, I made upgrades this mornin but I din't see any kernel updates. But I wasn't "fresh" | 11:35 |
| CatDog | littlepenguin, not right now | 11:36 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: you need to be able to 1) understand the build system and 2) identify the dependencies of the source package so that you can install the needed packages from the repository. | 11:36 |
| soreau | CatDog: First you need to verify your camera actually works, then verify that it is actually a supported cam. Have you checked the list of supported webcams? | 11:36 |
| Koshie | Hi | 11:36 |
| soreau | ! webcam | CatDog | 11:36 |
| ubottu | CatDog: Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras | 11:36 |
| CatDog | littlepenguin, i want it in ubuntu | 11:36 |
| littlepenguin | ok fine..so try the cam on another pc and see if it powers on | 11:36 |
| kuttan_ | I cannot hear anything in my headphones, speakers work fine. | 11:36 |
| Koshie | Hello ! I've a big trouble with Ejabberd, I can't connect myself with the admin account at the website Ejabberd of my server. I've create a new password for it with ejabberdctl, I've remove and create a new admin account but I CAN'T connect myself ! | 11:36 |
| boris- | sacarlson: i dont think it is | 11:36 |
| glick | anyone use cinelerra to edit video? | 11:36 |
| boris- | couldnt see it anywhere | 11:36 |
| glick | in ubuntu? | 11:36 |
| littlepenguin | catdog seems cam is broken..need to be verified | 11:36 |
| crux_ | hello everybody | 11:36 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: point 1 is not that much of a problem usually, as it's often just ./configure && make && make install or something, but point 2 is less obvious | 11:36 |
| erUSUL | wrksx: check /var/log/dpkg.log ? | 11:36 |
| jb12 | hey all wats up | 11:36 |
| jb12 | was wondering if anyone can help | 11:37 |
| anol | hello all | 11:37 |
| n00bzies | Hey folks I know you're all really busy but if anyone is available to assist please let me know. Would be grately appriciated. :) | 11:37 |
| crux_ | kann mir hier jemand helfen? | 11:37 |
| littlepenguin | crux just ask | 11:37 |
| kuttan_ | jb12 : I cannot hear anything in my headphones, speakers work fine. | 11:37 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: build instructions are usually written for developers and more advanced users, so the dependencies list will just say something like "Qt4, cmake, liboil" or something. | 11:37 |
| CatDog | littlepenguin, its suported and no its not broken | 11:37 |
| jb12 | how do i configure xchat to use a proxy server | 11:37 |
| jb12 | using xchat client | 11:37 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: and then you need to figure out yourself what packages provide those dependencies. | 11:37 |
| wrksx | erUSUL, ok thx | 11:37 |
| jb12 | i am gong to network section ned a hand there | 11:38 |
| n00bzies | I'm trying to boot ubuntu form a partition on a dell DCNE and I'm getting error (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system | 11:38 |
| sacarlson | glick: no but I have used pitivi in ubuntu to edit video | 11:38 |
| littlepenguin | ok catdog than i would guess it is on a defect usb port..or ubuntu does not support type of hardware | 11:38 |
| radi | hello, is there a way to install kiba dock without compiling it ? ive tried, but i always get an errors. I have all libs for it | 11:38 |
| radi | with amarok enabled | 11:38 |
| CatDog | littlepenguin, ports are fine in suported on website | 11:38 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: but why are you installing qbittorrent from source anyway? It seems to be in the repositories | 11:39 |
| littlepenguin | catdog have you tried to restart ubuntu | 11:39 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: just use aptitude or whatever | 11:39 |
| glick | sacarlson, i heard piviti is just for the absolute basics | 11:39 |
| minimec | CatDog: If you plug the device you should be able to see some messages at the end (5 lines or so) of dmesg (in a console) You should see then, if the cam is recognized by the system | 11:39 |
| sacarlson | catdog: littlepenguin: I agree, if you don't see the cam in lsusb then it must be as far down as the driver of the usb or broken | 11:39 |
| kuttan_ | I cannot hear anything in my headphones, speakers work fine. | 11:39 |
| aeon-ltd | kuttan_: check alsamixer in terminal | 11:40 |
| littlepenguin | yes sacarlson or kernel modules are not loaded | 11:40 |
| littlepenguin | but the usb should get intialized also.. | 11:40 |
| sacarlson | littlepenguin: maybe he has something else that uses usb? | 11:40 |
| ubununutunutu | chousuke, how do i reply? anyway, im doing it for practice on systems where i do not have the luxury of that repository | 11:40 |
| sacarlson | littlepenguin: like a usb flash drive? | 11:40 |
| xR4slehxc | lqzl | 11:40 |
| xR4slehxc | lawl | 11:41 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: ah, well, hm. | 11:41 |
| soreau | ! compile | ubununutunutu | 11:41 |
| ubottu | ubununutunutu: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 11:41 |
| aeon-ltd | xR4slehxc: trolololololol | 11:41 |
| wrksx | status installed linux-image-2.6.32-24-generic 2.6.32-24.39 | 11:41 |
| wrksx | this is kernel update no ? | 11:41 |
| aeon-ltd | wrksx: yes | 11:41 |
| CatDog | littlepenguin, nope same messages all to do with wirelass | 11:41 |
| erUSUL | wrksx: yes | 11:41 |
| wrksx | erUSUL, shit | 11:41 |
| wrksx | any chance that reboot fail ? | 11:42 |
| soreau | ubununutunutu: The packages ubuntu uses are built from source. -dev packages provide headers and other development tools. If you dont use repos, you will building a lot more from source than you bargained for | 11:42 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: the hardest part of compiling software really is figuring out the dependencies. | 11:42 |
| littlepenguin | sacarlson lsusb should show some devices so...without detailled logs its difficult to troubleshoot | 11:42 |
| sante | ciao | 11:42 |
| evon | what's the command to get grub2 to check for new OS's | 11:42 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: read the INSTALL and README files and install whatever -dev packages are needed to build the thing | 11:42 |
| pkkm | Is 'find -name' case-sensitive? | 11:42 |
| sacarlson | littlepenguin: catdog: oh I forgot one other thing If you already have something using usb pull it out. I have had a device use too much power off usb that killed all others on usb ports | 11:42 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: and follow any other instructions. | 11:42 |
| aeon-ltd | evon: sudo update-grub | 11:42 |
| littlepenguin | catdog could you pm me what lsusb gives out? | 11:43 |
| evon | aeon-ltd thanks man | 11:43 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: there's no real tutorial for it, since the process depends entirely on what you're installing. | 11:43 |
| soreau | littlepenguin: s/pm/pastebin | 11:43 |
| erUSUL | wrksx: did yu mean « any chance that reboot *could* fail ? » well sh*t happens. i cannot guarantee anything. | 11:43 |
| silentx | why no one want to solve my problem :( | 11:44 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: you just need to read whatever instructions the source contains. | 11:44 |
| littlepenguin | ok catdog no device..can confirm this | 11:44 |
| littlepenguin | sp catdog u have a usb stick or hdd connected? | 11:44 |
| xR4slehxc | im running BT4 with virtual box someone that nows why i cant find my network card | 11:44 |
| Chousuke | ubununutunutu: the ubuntu wiki page you were linked to provides helpful tips for many software packages but even that is not applicable to everything. | 11:45 |
| hwso1129 | I need help with installing OpenOffice in Xubuntu | 11:45 |
| aeon-ltd | xR4slehxc: shouldn't you be in #backtrack ? | 11:45 |
| hwso1129 | I am a newbie | 11:45 |
| CatDog | littlepenguin, nope tho that might be intergrated card reader on lpatop | 11:45 |
| hwso1129 | How to I install OpenOffice in Xubuntu? | 11:45 |
| wrksx | erUSUL, I'm not talking about any kind of guarantee =) this is the first time I update the kernel. I was simply wondering about the risks | 11:45 |
| kuttan_ | I cannot hear anything in my headphones, speakers work fine. can I reset my audio setting ( Lucid 10.04 ) . how can I do that thankx | 11:45 |
| littlepenguin | ok catdog Realtek Semiconductor Corp. Mass Storage Device because this device is shown | 11:46 |
| aeon-ltd | xR4slehxc: #backtrack-linux soz my bad | 11:46 |
| erUSUL | wrksx: pretty low. only security fixes are added. | 11:46 |
| aeon-ltd | kuttan_: go to a terminal | 11:46 |
| littlepenguin | @catdog this could be the cardreader | 11:46 |
| aeon-ltd | kuttan_: then type alsamixer then enter | 11:46 |
| hwso1129 | Anyone willing to help me? | 11:46 |
| littlepenguin | hwso just asl | 11:47 |
| aeon-ltd | hwso1129: use synaptic package manager | 11:47 |
| littlepenguin | ask | 11:47 |
| kuttan_ | aeon-ltd: did that.. | 11:47 |
| aeon-ltd | kuttan_: are you in? | 11:47 |
| wrksx | erUSUL, ok. Thank you for your answers | 11:47 |
| kuttan_ | aeon-ltd: yes | 11:47 |
| epinky | hwso1129: use SYnaptic | 11:47 |
| erUSUL | wrksx: no problem | 11:47 |
| littlepenguin | catdog you have installed a new kernel?? | 11:47 |
| kuttan_ | aeon-ltd: My external speakers just fine, problem is headphones sound | 11:47 |
| hwso1129 | Is there any online guide to help me with using this Operating System? | 11:47 |
| soreau | CatDog: If you have a usb device and lsusb does not sow it, that typically means it is a physical hardware issue, either with your device (in this case your webcam), the cord attaching your device to machine (the usb cable) or something fundamentally wrong with your usb in general (a conflict or a major system issue) | 11:47 |
| aeon-ltd | kuttan_: max out the bars with up(arrow key) and make sure they all show 00 if not go to the bar in question and press m | 11:47 |
| CatDog | littlepenguin, just kernal hedders | 11:47 |
| === carlos_ is now known as carod | ||
| bibo | hwso1129: what do you need help with? | 11:48 |
| minimec | hwso1129: There are different options. synaptic in the system settings or simply open a console and do sudo apt-get install openoffice.org | 11:48 |
| aeon-ltd | hwso1129: just google or read the wikis | 11:48 |
| hwso1129 | I am new to Xubuntu | 11:48 |
| hwso1129 | Thank you | 11:48 |
| bibo | hwso1129: Google is your friend | 11:48 |
| minimec | hwso1129: openoffice.org is the package name. You can also search that package with the mentioned synaptic software and then install it... | 11:49 |
| aeon-ltd | kuttan_: hows it going? | 11:49 |
| hwso1129 | bibo: thank you for your help | 11:49 |
| n00bzies | Sorry to be a pest. I'm trying to boot ubuntu form a partition on a dell DCNE and I'm getting error (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system. I dont know what to do from here. I'm really confused by the stuff I did manage to find on google. | 11:49 |
| kuttan_ | aeon-ltd: Sorry , same prooblem | 11:50 |
| aeon-ltd | kuttan_: no sound still?, double check alsamixer | 11:50 |
| ruby_on_tails | hello, how can I use the remote dektop viewer to view 2 desktops ? | 11:50 |
| epinky | hwso1129: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/newtoubuntu/C/index.html | 11:50 |
| littlepenguin | @catdog check http://blog.myfenris.net/?p=377 there you see how it normally should look | 11:50 |
| kuttan_ | aeon-ltd: Done ., no change | 11:51 |
| n00bzies | For most they're getting the error on install | 11:51 |
| aeon-ltd | ruby_on_tails: if its 2 different pcs couldn't you just use another instance of rdv? | 11:51 |
| petriborg | does nvidia somehow not require a kernel package for 10.04? | 11:51 |
| aeon-ltd | kuttan_: do the headphones work for sure? | 11:51 |
| n00bzies | I already had it installed though so I'm not sure why this error is appearing now | 11:51 |
| ruby_on_tails | aeon-ltd: I am trying to view 2 pcs from my laptop, another instance doesn't fire up | 11:51 |
| ruby_on_tails | aeon-ltd: it maximises the 1st instance | 11:51 |
| n00bzies | I'm desperate | 11:51 |
| n00bzies | :( | 11:52 |
| kuttan_ | aeon-ltd: Yes its dual boot, works fine in XP ( headphones) | 11:52 |
| littlepenguin | noobzies housewife?? | 11:52 |
| littlepenguin | :D | 11:52 |
| aeon-ltd | kuttan_: what are you using to test? | 11:52 |
| aeon-ltd | littlepenguin: lol | 11:52 |
| n00bzies | yes it's getting there | 11:52 |
| littlepenguin | ;D | 11:52 |
| sacarlson | petriborg: I have nvidia and I see it has a module nvidia-agp.ko | 11:52 |
| kuttan_ | aeon-ltd: I am using vlc and mp3 file | 11:53 |
| petriborg | sacarlson - what package does that come out of? any idea? | 11:53 |
| n00bzies | Ultimately I need to install a SQL server prolly MySQL but cant get over this silly hump of the Ubuntu install not working | 11:53 |
| sacarlson | petriborg: well it would be in the kernel package i have installed | 11:53 |
| epinky | !details | n00bzies | 11:54 |
| ubottu | n00bzies: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 11:54 |
| n00bzies | Oh thanks. Sorry If I wasn't asking properly | 11:54 |
| kuttan_ | aeon-ltd: Can I reset audio settings by deleting some files ( like restting gnome-panel ) | 11:54 |
| sacarlson | petriborg: I'm not sure what your problem is or what nvidia card you have | 11:54 |
| littlepenguin | kuttan rename folder .pulse in home folder | 11:54 |
| ruby_on_tails | aeon-ltd: and when I connect to another ip it says connection closed | 11:54 |
| aeon-ltd | kuttan_: in your home directory you can delete .alsa .pulseaudio not absolutly sure of their names but you should find them (btw they are hidden) | 11:55 |
| petriborg | sacarlson - not really a problem per-say :-) I've compiled my own 2.6.35 kernel for Ubuntu 10.04 and was trying to figure out what I would have to do for the nvidia card to work | 11:55 |
| minimec | kuttan_: I would rather try to reconfigure alsa with sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa-base. That should set alsa to its defaults. | 11:55 |
| n00bzies | I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and when I attempt to boot my PC I'm getting error (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system. | 11:56 |
| petriborg | sacarlson - the 2.6.35 kernel I compiled is based off the ubuntu git repo in case you're wondering :-) | 11:56 |
| kuttan_ | aeon-ltd: Then do I need to kill pulseaudo ( after deleting the .pulse/* ) ? | 11:56 |
| n00bzies | It's a Dell dell DCNE | 11:56 |
| sacarlson | petriborg: oh ok well you would have to look at the compile config and make sure you enabled all the nvidia stuff in it | 11:56 |
| sacarlson | petriborg: so you don't see any nvidia when you do a modprobe -l | 11:57 |
| petriborg | sacarlson - I didn't realize it was it was included in the main kernel body these days, hence my confusion :-) | 11:57 |
| crux_ | join #ubuntu-de | 11:57 |
| epinky | n00bzies: was Ubuntu running before or this is your first installation attempt failed? | 11:58 |
| rmrfboy | exit | 11:58 |
| petriborg | sacarlson - oh, I do in fact see the nvidia drivers when I do modprobe -l -- I'm just surprised (happily) :-) | 11:58 |
| petriborg | sacarlson - i didn't expect it to how shall i say, go smoothly ;-) | 11:58 |
| aeon-ltd | kuttan_: you won't need to, it should just regenerate those folders and files but if it doesn't yeah kill pulseaudio, alsa and restart them | 11:58 |
| n00bzies | sorry did I still fail at asking my question? I'm sorry I'm so frustrated :( I can't seem to get any of this to work. I'm just a reporting analyst !_! I don't know this IT stuff lol | 12:00 |
| n00bzies | AHH! | 12:00 |
| n00bzies | sorry epinky | 12:00 |
| n00bzies | epinky: I think it worked before | 12:01 |

| raven__ | what is the cmd command for standby? | 12:01 |
| n00bzies | epinky: sorry thanks all for being helpful patient and understanding with my fail noobness | 12:02 |
| kuttan_ | aeon-ltd: No luck ... | 12:02 |
| minimec | n00bzies: Your problem is not related to your laptop, but there's a problem with the ubuntu install youd did (or changed).. You would have to recreate a working grub2 configuration (grub2 = boot 'software'). This is not an easy task, when you a n00b as you mention... | 12:02 |
| sacarlson | n00bzies: I'm not sure I read back far enuf in your questions above but it may be you have a bad boot cd. maybe the cd media is bad? burn another and try install again | 12:03 |
| littlepenguin | raven : suspend | 12:03 |
| littlepenguin | or hibernate | 12:03 |
| n00bzies | minimec: I know this might be a horrible ask, but is there any way I could get a step by step on how to do this? | 12:04 |
| epinky | n00bzies: let us understand this , are you trying to reinstall Ubuntu via Live CD? | 12:04 |

| minimec | n00bzies: that could be a start http://ubuntuguide.net/how-to-restore-grub-2-after-reinstalling-windows-xpvistawin7 | 12:05 |
| n00bzies | epinky: I haven't tried to do anything so far. All I know is that someone in my office attempted to install ubuntu on the Dell PC model I had mentioned earlier, I walked in today to install MYSQL and I got that error. I am gathering from minimec that I might need to I guess reinstall. Not sure how to create a grub2 configuration | 12:06 |
| minimec | n00bzies: nope. Forget it. He is using win7 to restore grub... | 12:06 |
| n00bzies | OH!!! Sorry I forgot to mention, there is a parition with Windows XP | 12:07 |
| sacarlson | minimec: ya sounds like down to grub level problems for n00bzies | 12:07 |
| minimec | n00bzies: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows | 12:08 |
| minimec | n00bzies: That should be a good start. | 12:09 |
| sacarlson | minimec: n00bzies: if nothing was already on it before you started maybe easier just to reinstall. if not maybe try supergrub boot disk to fix | 12:09 |
| n00bzies | Hmm Windows XP was already on there. A partition was created with Ubuntu | 12:09 |
| minimec | n00bzies: So the las link I gave you is(!) the solution ;) | 12:11 |
| === sinux is now known as SiNUX | ||

| n00bzies | OHH!!! Sorry minimec I thought that link would only work if I had installed windows after installing Ubuntu. | 12:12 |
| SiNUX | n00bzies, What is the file format u used to create it? | 12:12 |
| sacarlson | n00bzies: one of the options in install of ubuntu is manual patition you can set the one that was used last if you want | 12:12 |
| n00bzies | SiNUX: I didn't create it.. hence the issues lol. If I had done the install I think I may have been less lost. Or not who knows. I'm not very good with any of this which is why I'm asking dumb n00b questions lol | 12:13 |
| Miouy | I moved a window outside my desktop. now I can't click at it and I can't move it | 12:14 |

| nicark | Miouy: Try grabing it with ctrl + a mouse click on it | 12:14 |
| nicark | Miouy: or was it alt + mouse. Can't remember. | 12:14 |

| sacarlson | delaney_ is 10.10 released? | 12:16 |
| delaney_ | its Alpha 2 | 12:16 |
| delaney_ | but i cant get it to update to 10.10 | 12:17 |
| epinky | !maverick | delaney_ | 12:17 |
| ubottu | delaney_: 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 | 12:17 |
| n00bzies | minimec: weird. the very first instruction doesn't work. tried to grub-install -v to get the grub version and got /bin/sh: grub-install: not found | 12:17 |
| sacarlson | n00bzies: is this from a live boot cd? | 12:18 |
| n00bzies | minimec: sorry I fail. I'm gonna boot into the live CD nvm lol | 12:18 |
| n00bzies | sacarlson: no idea. I'm about to find out. I didn't do any of the initial install | 12:19 |
| minimec | n00bzies: ;) Remember! You are using grub2! You need to follow the grub2 tutorial ;) | 12:19 |
| raven__ | what is the cmd command for standby? | 12:19 |
| sacarlson | n00bzies: that's what you should be doing. do the grub-install or full install from the live cd boot | 12:19 |
| epinky | raven_: standby as "ok" in Solaris? | 12:19 |
| n00bzies | minimec: ohhh I must be because of my version of Ubuntu right? *facepalm* of course!!! | 12:19 |
| n00bzies | sacarlson: I'm going to see if this is a live cd hopefully so and I can follow the instructions | 12:20 |
| Guest55816 | oh | 12:20 |
| n00bzies | you guyes are the best thankyou for being so patient with me and helping with an answer. | 12:22 |
| minimec | n00bzies: I do guess that you took the newest one --> 10.04 Lucid.. That means you use grub2, right. I fyou have a version previous to 9.10 Karmic, then you are using the old grub... | 12:22 |
| Noones | hello, i m trying to install neverwinter nights from the cd to my computer, i downloaded the following installer http://icculus.org/~ravage/nwn/ from the website, now my problem is that it uses the old gtk1.2 instead of the newer version. Are there any workarounds for this problem. I also tried to install the old version but i would have to remove the 2.0 and with it tons of programms any solutions ? | 12:23 |
| n00bzies | OMG!!!!! I GOT IT!!! | 12:23 |
| suigeneris | what package can I use to convert img to iso? | 12:23 |
| minimec | n00bzies: So you can boot ubuntu? Congratulations... You did your first ubuntu debugging ;) | 12:24 |
| coz_ | suigeneris, see if this helps http://www.mopedia.co.uk/2008/02/convert-img-to-iso-in-ubuntu.html | 12:24 |

| === guest is now known as shadow | ||
| n00bzies | I <3 you guys thank you. Now I will stop flodding your channel with praise and get through the worst hellish part... MySQL lol | 12:25 |
| coz_ | Noones, let me check something | 12:26 |
| cesc | Hi there. This is not a question about ubuntu itself but I'm sure someone could answer it as I don't know in which channel to formulate this question. When you visit a web site... for instance www.guardian.co.uk using firefox you see on the bottom left of the browser that it connects to multiple websites (I presume most of them for advertisement). I have installed adblock plus, the plugin for firefox and it must stop some of those intermediate sites before reac | 12:27 |
| cesc | hing the final www.guardian.co.uk. But even with this plugin, I can see lots of sites where it has to pass through. Maybe if I could detect which are those intermediate url's to reach www.guardian.co.uk I could block those places as well in a way. Any ideas? | 12:27 |
| FloodBot1 | cesc: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 12:27 |
| coz_ | Noones, you could try one of these installers http://www.liflg.org/?catid=6&gameid=65 | 12:28 |
| Noones | thanks coz_ i will try them, hopefully they work :) | 12:29 |
| oCean_ | cesc: you could try if #ubuntu-offtopic has clues/answers, but it's certainly offtopic here | 12:29 |
| coz_ | Noones, I have used liki installers for doom before and serious sam ... I know they work but I never tried the one you have | 12:29 |
| minimec | cesc: your solution would be the combintation of Adblock-plus with the NoScript plugin for firefox. So install the NoScript plugin and check guardian.co.uk again. | 12:29 |
| coz_ | Noones, rather loki installers | 12:29 |
| n00bzies | hey sorry guys going back to my original issue, dumb question... if you are using a live CD.... does it say completing installation does a countdown and then possibilty get into the error (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system? Because when I boot with the CD in it works,,, when I don't... it doesn't work | 12:30 |
| sacarlson | Noones: also maybe you can put a solution in vertualbox that runs under your old system without breaking what you already have | 12:30 |
| ttyX | OK, I am in a bit of confusion here | 12:30 |
| ttyX | disk utility says my HDD has 1 bad sector but the hdd passes all seatools tests with flying colours, whom shud I trust? | 12:31 |
| Noones | yeah, if that doesn't work i will try it with a virtual box sarcarison | 12:31 |
| roccity_ | sacarlson, what are you confused about? | 12:31 |
| === shade__ is now known as shade\ | ||
| ttyX | even hdd regenerator says it has no bad sectors | 12:32 |
| Dr_Willis | ttyX: i find most disks can report 1 or more bad sectors.. the sectors get remapped. thats how they work. | 12:32 |
| epinky | n00bzies: after booting the LiceCD you've got to follow(type the commands) the HOWTO minimec posted | 12:32 |
| Noones | thanks coz_ this installer seems to work flawalessly so far :) | 12:32 |
| epinky | n00bzies: LiveCD* | 12:33 |
| coz_ | Noones, very cool :) | 12:33 |
| Dr_Willis | once the # of sectors reported as 'bad' get to a high # - then you may want to worry. | 12:33 |
| sacarlson | roccity_: cunfused about? nothing at the moment just trying to see what others are confused about and see if I can help. | 12:33 |
| ttyX | my deathstar is dying but this seagate even though it shows 1 bad sector seems to work fine | 12:33 |
| n00bzies | epinky: Ah ok. So I guess if it does that it is a Live CD? I have no idea what I have. lol the guy only wrote 10.04 on the CD didn't even mention the distro. lol. | 12:33 |
| n00bzies | thanks!! | 12:34 |
| crispy | Hey guys! i need a hand :/ | 12:34 |
| roccity_ | sacarlson, sorry I'm confused myself LOL :) | 12:34 |
| crispy | downloaded 10.04 iso, burnt to disc, can boot to it but every option i do (try without install, and install) just reboots the computer. | 12:34 |
| crispy | any ideas? | 12:35 |
| ttyX | crispy: try alternate install | 12:35 |
| sacarlson | n00bzies: I guess it was never completely installed in the first place? when it fails it may boot the cd | 12:35 |
| coz_ | crispy, well...first thing to check is ..when the live cd boos...choose the "Check cd" option to be sure it is not corrupt | 12:35 |
| sacarlson | n00bzies: it could be the boot sequence you have set in your bios | 12:36 |
| crispy | i think it restarts itself on the check cd as well | 12:36 |
| epinky | !md5 | crispy | 12:36 |
| ubottu | crispy: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 12:36 |
| crispy | boot seq is cd > hdd > floppy | 12:36 |
| coz_ | crispy, ok then as sacarlson mentioned ...go into your bios and be sure that first boot device is the cd | 12:36 |
| crispy | ill check the md5 of the iso, thanks | 12:38 |
| n00bzies | sacarlson: That may very well be the case. I have no idea what happened beforehand. Those steps that minimec posted should work right? I'm booting into a live environment now. It works with the CD in but like I said before it's behaving oddly. I thought this might have been a live CD but that doesn't make any sense because we need this to be a server. so I don't know. I don;t even know if I have a real install cd or a liveCD | 12:39 |
| coz_ | crispy, if that iso md5sum is ok reburn the disc at the slowest speed 1x preferred | 12:39 |
| sacarlson | crispy: you sure this isn't a hardware problem like memory errors sometimes cause reboot | 12:39 |
| coz_ | sacarlson, good catch... I just woke up :) | 12:40 |
| crispy | where is the md5 listed for the iso? i have the md5 hash of the iso i have, just want to confirm | 12:40 |
| parag0n | does anyone know where i can get the font from thats used for the new ubuntu logo? | 12:40 |
| linf | Hola | 12:40 |
| crispy | yeah, i'll run a memtess | 12:40 |
| coz_ | parag0n, i dont think its finished yet | 12:41 |
| sacarlson | n00bzies: a live cd and an install cd are the same thing. you can do both with a live cd | 12:41 |
| parag0n | ubuntu-title is th eold one, and the only thing i can find is a thing from march saying it'llb e released 'soon' | 12:41 |
| coz_ | parag0n, let me check | 12:41 |

| sacarlson | n00bzies: and all the advice I saw minimec give looked good to me | 12:41 |
| Angah_Eypoh | As`saLamuaLaikum WarahmatuLLah Hiwabarakatuh ~~:) | 12:42 |
| n00bzies | sacarlson: ahhhh ok thanks! I thought they were two seperate things. I will follow the steps and come back to you all should there be an issue. Hoping this works. And as I mentioned before you guys are super awesome | 12:42 |
| roccity_ | morning linf | 12:42 |
| linf | roccity_: 15:42 | 12:42 |

| wolfric | is there an editor to the standard of notepad++ for linux/ubuntu would anyone know? | 12:42 |

| parag0n | $30? :( | 12:43 |

| Dr_Willis | carbonic: package manager keeps a cache in /var/cache/apt/archives/ | 12:52 |
| Dr_Willis | carbonic: apt-get clean can auto clean the cache. | 12:52 |

| Dr_Willis | if you arwe that worried about drive space.. :) it may be time ti get a bigger hd. :P | 12:53 |
| Friktion | Hey i just updated my ubuntu with the todays update through update manager, and after it asked me to restard my screen got black and nothing happened | 12:54 |
| carbonic | Dr_Willis, I installed ubuntu on a Virtual machine that's whyI concern about space ;) | 12:54 |
| parapanghelescu | friktion > bad news bro' | 12:54 |
| Friktion | i followed what this guy told me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8y29gqX9SU | 12:54 |
| Friktion | and | 12:54 |
| skandar | How do I get ubuntu 10.04 to auto login without asking for pw | 12:55 |
| bihari | Good evening to all. | 12:55 |
| skandar | i only have one account on it | 12:55 |
| Friktion | now i can boot but with like allot of errors and i boot into low graphics mode and omg this is so f**ed | 12:55 |
| quenbert | skandar: System menu -> administration -> login screen | 12:56 |
| parapanghelescu | but I tell you this ....if you're a beginner .....no chabce you will be able to fix-it ...and/or you'll loose a high amount of time > So, just do a fresh re-install with 10.04 LTS and before that back-up everything in your /home folder | 12:56 |
| ttyX | graphics mode can be changed in preferences | 12:56 |
| Friktion | damn i have been spending hours doanloding and installing the right packages to be able to program on ubuntu i cant even imagine doing everything from the begining =) | 12:57 |
| skandar | thanks, was looking in the users and groups button instead | 12:57 |
| Friktion | =(* | 12:57 |

| jrib | Friktion: apt-get install build-essential, done | 12:57 |
| n00bzies | Hey folks, dumb question but where would I find xterm on ubuntu 10.04? I've only ever used xubuntu and I think this is a live CD which I've never used | 12:57 |
| jrib | n00bzies: ubuntu comes with gnome-terminal | 12:57 |
| n00bzies | jrib: thanks where would I find it? | 12:58 |
| Angah_Eypoh | butuh ko | 12:58 |
| Angah_Eypoh | babi | 12:58 |
| jrib | n00bzies: accessories menu | 12:58 |

| n00bzies | jrib: omg sorry -_- thank you. I so fail this morning | 12:58 |
| sacarlson | n00bzies: Applications>Accesories>Terminal | 12:58 |
| parapanghelescu | friktion > from my experience ....on the same day I upgraded my Desktop machine from old version to Jaunty ...everything worked 100% right ......after few hours I tried the same on my DELL Inspiron 6400 > after restart I got the black screen , lots of errors and no X, so I just made a fresh installation .... | 12:58 |
| quenbert | n00bzies: xterm is always installed by default (part of Xorg) | 12:58 |
| epinky | n00bzies: ALT+F2, then type xterm then click Run | 12:59 |
| n00bzies | tnx once again -_-' *crawls back into the hole* lol :) | 12:59 |
| Friktion | so every time i get a black screen i have to reinstall -. - | 12:59 |
| parapanghelescu | friktion > not quite :d only if you're a beginner ....like me ...trust me ....a fresh reinstall will take around 1 hour of your time ....messing around with a buggy kernel ....can take forever :D | 13:00 |
| Friktion | ok i guess i have no other choise, so how do irei | 13:00 |
| ttyX | nope you could post dmesg logs | 13:00 |
| Friktion | how do i reinstall ? | 13:01 |
| Friktion | like i only have an ubuntu 9.04 cd | 13:01 |
| io | !reinstall | Friktion | 13:01 |

| skandar | as I use chrome, i suppose there's no way of getting rid of firefox without diving into apt or synaptic? | 13:01 |
| Friktion | No i mean how do i reinstall ubuntu | 13:02 |
| jrib | skandar: that's how you get rid of anything... | 13:02 |
| skandar | it isn't listed in software center | 13:02 |
| aeon-ltd | skandar: yeah but getting rid of does imply uuninstalling | 13:02 |
| Friktion | without using my 9.04 cd | 13:02 |
| jrib | Friktion: why do you want to? | 13:02 |
| ikonia | skandar: as synaptic is the package manager, and firefox is a pacakge, how else do you expect to remove it | 13:02 |
| skandar | i mean with things like ubuntu software center | 13:02 |
| ikonia | skandar: open synaptic, search for it, mark it for removal | 13:02 |
| parapanghelescu | friktion > dont you have another machine to go on the net and download the CD image of 10.04 ?? | 13:02 |
| jrib | skandar: yeah, that's how you manage software in ubuntu | 13:02 |
| Friktion | yes i can | 13:02 |
| ttyX | skandar: firefox is attached to unbuntu's gnome-desktop package, so no way! | 13:02 |
| Friktion | but i dont have any cds to burn it on | 13:02 |
| skandar | i can remove oo.o writer for instance in ubuntu center, but not firefox | 13:02 |
| skandar | seems odd | 13:02 |
| ikonia | not really | 13:03 |
| quenbert | skandar: in terminal: sudo aptitude remove firefox | 13:03 |
| DGM | skandar: why remove it? It's only a few mb, and not all pages show up well in chrome yet. I use chrome 95% of the time.. the 5% for pages that don't work.. usually the ones made for IE | 13:03 |
| aguitel | what is the diference between xterm and terminal ? | 13:03 |
| parapanghelescu | friktion > I think, depending on your computer that you can boot from flash/USB card also ..... | 13:03 |
| ttyX | you can't completely remove firefox, the xulrunner thingy will stay | 13:03 |
| jrib | aguitel: if by "terminal", you mean gnome-terminal, they're different programs | 13:03 |
| skandar | i know how to remove it manually ;) i was just curious why it isn't listed in software center to be removed, unlike oo writer and calc | 13:04 |
| aguitel | jrib, xterm and gnome-terminal | 13:04 |
| DGM | Friktion: you could also order a free cd with ubuntu. I do that once in a while. That can take a while to arrive though if you can wait | 13:04 |
| parapanghelescu | friktion > just reboot your system , press F2 or whatever combination you have for accesing the BIOS, and check the "Boot option" ...you should have the HDD - CD/DVD - and maybe also USB - then you can use a flash card ... | 13:05 |
| jrib | aguitel: then "they're different programs" | 13:05 |
| ttyX | skandar: firefox doesn't even take much space | 13:05 |
| jrib | Friktion: I really doubt you need to reinstall ubuntu... | 13:05 |
| quenbert | aguitel: they all emulate a terminal under X window | 13:05 |
| Friktion | jirib: im listening =) | 13:06 |
| Friktion | jrib* | 13:06 |
| jrib | Friktion: no you're not because I asked you a question twice, but you didn't answer me | 13:06 |
| ttyX | besides chrome doesn't even have a proper abp alternative yet | 13:06 |
| aguitel | quenbert, ok | 13:06 |
| DGM | aguitel: they're terminal emulators. In the old days there used to be only terminals (command line). When they added a user interface they still wanted a way to enter console commands. Thats why those programs were created. And like quenbert says.. they're just different programs | 13:06 |
| Friktion | im sorry | 13:06 |
| Friktion | wait | 13:06 |
| === administrator is now known as Guest34861 | ||
| abhijit | hello | 13:06 |

| aguitel | DGM, quenbert thanks | 13:07 |
| Friktion | jrib: my problem is that after i installed an update and restarted my screen got black, then i followed a tutorial for fixing it and now i can boot but i get plenty of errors and stuff | 13:07 |

| Friktion | parapanghelescu: nope actually the upgrade went fine for weeks | 13:08 |

| Friktion | jrib: i already did that and it went fine, just that today i updated my kernel | 13:09 |
| Friktion | jrib nothing to do with upgrading from 9.04 to 10.4 | 13:09 |

| rezolute | crispy: you're probably having this problem - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-180/+bug/342926 I did, for years. | 13:14 |
| SwedeMike | timubuntu: if you're connected using ethernet cable then try "ifconfig eth0 up" and "dhclient eth0" and see if you get an IP address and can update after that | 13:14 |
| rezolute | I moved to an i5 (which doesnt have a northbridge) and everything suddenly worked perfectly | 13:14 |

| xavieran | Muahaha... I have half a decade experience using linux. Gentoo, arch, LFS, etc. I shall do as I please >:D | 13:44 |

| SickAnimations | sacarlson: This directory and its contents are not linked, at least they shouldn't be. Can I check with a command? | 13:46 |
| xavieran | Yes, no obviously no user called apt-get ;) | 13:46 |
| DGM | SickAnimations: whats the exact path? and run sudo fdisk -l . Then we'll know for certain if its a partition thing | 13:47 |
| sacarlson | SickAnimations: it's samba so it's probly net linked to a fat32 partition? | 13:47 |
| SickAnimations | It's /home/tim/torrents/*/ (where * is loaded, incomplete, complete) - this is happening for three directories at once. | 13:47 |

| parapanghelescu | abhijit: thaks for the tip ;) | 14:09 |
| raven__ | command for standby? | 14:10 |
| parapanghelescu | Friktion: if you have another system you can try to access the drive directly ...via a USB case for example....the partitions are there .....it's only a question to mount the drive on a different system | 14:11 |
| littlepenguin | suspend raven | 14:11 |
| parapanghelescu | but it must by a linux OS .....Xp will not help you with the ext2/3 formatting | 14:12 |
| ekai125 | hi.. anybody encounter this problem? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/UUf7PKGi | 14:13 |
| dotnetted | I like having all my server config files (mysql, apache, asterisk etc) on a seperate partition in /data/conf/ (for portability) - are there any problems I may run into later (maybe w/ aptitude) if I symlink /etc/apache2/ to /data/conf/apache2/? | 14:13 |
| itamarc | hi, I need some help... I upgraded my ubuntu from 9.10 to 10.04 and now my computer doesn't finish the boot process... | 14:13 |
| MichealH | ekai125, It would be better to just get the latest number and run it in | 14:13 |
| Krishnandu | Hey friends how to compile C programs using Anjuta | 14:14 |
| DGM | Krishnandu: be a bit more specific please. Otherwise its just build | 14:14 |
| pumpkin | hi. Using 10.04 32Bit edition: Every apt-get install, aptitude install,... ends with a seg fault. i cleaned /var/log/apt/, i reinstalled from scratch, no luck. What else can i do? | 14:14 |
| itamarc | I've analyzed the problem and looks like it's the X server, but on top of this I my ubuntu does not give me a command prompt | 14:14 |
| MichealH | ekai125, So, for example If the new kernel headers were 2.6.26-24 then just apt-get install them | 14:15 |
| Krishnandu | DGM, I just installed anjuta, and now how to run the programs?? | 14:15 |
| DGM | Krishnandu: click file -> new -> project. Then select a C project. It will set everything up for you | 14:16 |
| itamarc | to have some access I used "init=/bin/bash" and changed some things, but all I could get is a X screen frozen (mouse and keyboard dead) | 14:16 |
| Krishnandu | I think it didn't detected GCC | 14:16 |
| ekai125 | MichealH: i received this error in all application, so i could't use apt-get , | 14:16 |
| DGM | Krishnandu: then the commands you need will be under the build and run menu | 14:16 |
| jimcooncat | dotnetted: I would think it would work ok, but seems awkward. How is this portable? | 14:16 |
| Krishnandu | DGM, I think it didn't detected GCC | 14:16 |
| DGM | Krishnandu: sudo apt-get install gcc g++ make | 14:17 |
| econdudeawesome | Hi! How do I change the default GNOME menu to GnoMenu? As in, I want to change the keybinding so that alt+f1 opens GnoMenu, not Alacarte | 14:17 |
| Krishnandu | I've installed GCC | 14:17 |
| Krishnandu | already | 14:17 |
| DGM | whats the exact error message you're getting then? | 14:17 |
| itamarc | my video card is a Nvidia Geforce 7950 GT | 14:17 |
| PCdoc | I have via chipsets on my mobo .. in the display panel of ubuntu 10.04, it says Monitor not detected. I have tried via official drivers and Openchrome .. didnt work | 14:18 |
| Krishnandu | DGM, I've already installed GCC. | 14:18 |
| DGM | Krishnandu: yes but whats the message you're getting from anjuta that makes you think it can't find gcc? | 14:18 |
| Krishnandu | DGM, I used to compile programs from terminal and now I want an IDE and guys here in IRC suggested me to use Anjuta | 14:18 |
| parapanghelescu | pumpkin: you can try using Synaptic Package MANAGER ( the graphic interface ) from System/Administration and Settings > Repositories and change the Download from ...location | 14:19 |
| Krishnandu | DGM, no I'm not getting any message, I'm saying that to you | 14:19 |
| DGM | Krishnandu: yea either that or codeblocks | 14:19 |
| ekai125 | any method to repair dpkg? | 14:19 |
| itamarc | anyone can help me to figure out what's wrong? | 14:19 |
| MichealH | ekai125, Try not installing the kernel and see if that works | 14:19 |
| Kodez1 | Hello Solly. Please call me. Let's chat | 14:19 |
| abhijit | !ot > Kodez1 | 14:20 |
| ubottu | Kodez1, please see my private message | 14:20 |
| Krishnandu | DGM, ya...so how to use that?? BTW CodeBlocks detected my GCC | 14:20 |
| littlepenguin | im bored... | 14:20 |
| ShapeShifter499 | hi | 14:20 |
| crispy | hey guys | 14:20 |
| littlepenguin | hi shapeshifter and crispy | 14:20 |
| wolfric | i have multiple addresses set up on wlan0 but ifconfig only displays the first | 14:20 |
| wolfric | anyway to display all addresses? | 14:20 |
| ]tomppa[ | Does the new nvidia geforce gtx 460 work with ubuntu? | 14:20 |
| ShapeShifter499 | I'm trying to patch wine but "patch" isn't doing anything when I run the command | 14:20 |
| DGM | Krishnandu: i know codeblocks should work out of the box. But you're saying that anjuta can't find your GCC. What makes you think that? Have you tried clicking build? | 14:20 |
| dotnetted | jimcooncat: I frequently load up ubuntu onto new boxes and wrote a script that auto installs apache,mysql,php,ldap,ftp etc. servers and then backs up and symlinks all the relevant /etc/* config directories to /data/conf/* which resides on a seperate disk - its the easiest way Ive found to only have to worry about one set of config files for many boxes - all logs are in /data/logs/ and all the databases/web content is in /data/databases/ and /data/vhosts | 14:21 |
| crispy | tried live cd + alternate cd, both restart the PC when i select install/any other option. any ideas? | 14:21 |
| pumpkin | parapanghelescu, i tried the main repos, the local repos for my country, the countries around .. same thing. It downloads, it starts to setup and dies with seg fault just before finishing the install. Most programms work anyway. | 14:21 |
| Krishnandu | ya...it ask me for program parameter and etc | 14:21 |
| littlepenguin | crispy does the live cd run? | 14:22 |
| DGM | Krishnandu: no you must make a new project first. File -> New -> New project. You will get an option to make a new C project where you can add your files to | 14:22 |
| DGM | pick "Generic" for testing right now | 14:22 |
| dotnetted | so if something bad does happen to ubuntu I can pull off the disk with /data and stick right back onto a freshly installed distro (/home is also linked to /data/home so all user data is easily portable) - is that makes any sense heh - any suggestions are appreciated though ;) | 14:22 |
| xavieran | Hey parapanghelescu scanning is a go :) | 14:22 |
| Krishnandu | DGM, ok I didn't did that, I tried adding file | 14:22 |
| xavieran | parapanghelescu: thanks for the help | 14:22 |
| parapanghelescu | pumpkin: try later on ...it may be something "in the air" .....it hapend to me several times ....all the time was from the repository .....it was OK after few days | 14:22 |
| Krishnandu | DGM, thanks, and sorry for the confusion, | 14:22 |
| DGM | Krishnandu: you must add the files to a c or c++ project. Otherwise it doesn't know what to do with it | 14:22 |
| DGM | np | 14:22 |
| DGM | if it complains about glib use sudo aptitude install libglib2.0-dev libgtk2.0-dev | 14:23 |
| Krishnandu | DGM, I added a project and now I should add a C file right?? | 14:23 |
| DGM | Krishnandu: yes in the src folder | 14:23 |
| Krishnandu | file>new>file | 14:23 |
| parapanghelescu | xavieran: no problem bro > it just hapend to me few weeks ago so I was in the position to share some info ..... | 14:23 |
| pumpkin | parapanghelescu, i have this problem since the day 10.04 was released. I ask here about once per month and never got an answer. | 14:23 |
| Krishnandu | DGM, file>new>file right?? | 14:23 |
| NovaYoshi | Is there a way to DISABLE FSpot photo viewer? It locks up my old computer whenever I plug in my USB drive... | 14:24 |
| DGM | Krishnandu: you could yea. but if you already have existing c files that you made, you can make a project out of them by picking new -> project from existing sources | 14:24 |
| jimcooncat | dotnetted: so you have /data/conf on an NFS share or something? or do you just rsync among your machines? | 14:25 |
| dotnetted | jimcooncat: I'm not 100% positive though but it seems like my current setup disagrees with aptitude somehow - for example update-manager is currently hung updating mysql /etc/init/mysql.conf ;) | 14:25 |
| parapanghelescu | pumpkin: Hmmm ...that reminds me about the fact that I wanted to upgrade from jaunty .....I think it wont be the case now ......again .....maybe the download link is broken or somehow not correct ..... | 14:25 |
| airtonix | NovaYoshi, have you bothered to look in the preferences of nautilus yet ? | 14:25 |
| Krishnandu | DGM, ok, buddy I'm trying to add a new C file, I did file>new>file and typed the name of C file and selected C Source file and it's saying no target selected, though I selected src as you said | 14:25 |
| NovaYoshi | I admit that I haven't | 14:25 |
| jimcooncat | dotnetted: it shouldn't be messing with a conffile I would think | 14:25 |
| pozic | Can Nautilus be configured not to show certain extensions? | 14:26 |
| DGM | Krishnandu: select the project you want to add it to in that list instead | 14:27 |
| DGM | Krishnandu: it should put it under src for you | 14:27 |
| parapanghelescu | pumpkin: did you tried ........sudo apt-get clean / sudo apt-get update / sudo apt-get upgrade ??? | 14:27 |
| NovaYoshi | THERE we go :3 | 14:27 |
| Krishnandu | DGM, ok done...thanks...lemme try to compile | 14:27 |
| Krishnandu | DGM, I compiled and everything went successfully | 14:29 |
| DGM | good :) | 14:29 |
| pumpkin | parapanghelescu, several times. | 14:29 |
| dotnetted | jimcooncat: /data/conf/ is just copied manually whenever I setup a new box - it just helps keep things in one place when things need fixing (frequently) - all the boxes serve as ldap/samba authentication servers too so all other local boxes work as thin clients and save all user data to /data/home/* on the main box (which is on a seperate raid drive) - seemed to me like the safest bet | 14:29 |
| Krishnandu | DGM, but when I click execute it does nothing | 14:29 |
| itamarc | minha placa de vídeo é uma Nvidia Geforce 7950 GT | 14:29 |

| itamarc | :( | 14:30 |
| chong | itamarc: what ? | 14:30 |
| itamarc | hi, I need some help... I upgraded my ubuntu from 9.10 to 10.04 and now my computer doesn't finish the boot process... | 14:30 |
| itamarc | I've analyzed the problem and looks like it's the X server, but on top of this I my ubuntu does not give me a command prompt | 14:30 |
| _raven_ | suspend command not found - what to do? | 14:30 |
| itamarc | to have some access I used "init=/bin/bash" and changed some things, but all I could get is a X screen frozen (mouse and keyboard dead) | 14:30 |
| econdudeawesome | Hi! How do I change the default GNOME menu to GnoMenu? As in, I want to change the keybinding so that alt+f1 opens GnoMenu, not Alacarte | 14:31 |
| itamarc | my video card is a Nvidia Geforce 7950 GT | 14:31 |
| jimcooncat | dotnetted: so what are you getting for an error message while updating? You may want to use command line tools for updating if you're not getting good feedback. | 14:31 |
| airtonix | _raven_, either upgrade your bios or confirm it can support the required options for suspend | 14:31 |
| Black_Prince | !java | 14:31 |
| ubottu | 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. | 14:31 |
| itamarc | anyone can help me to figure out what's wrong? | 14:31 |
| _raven_ | airtonix, but it is a linux problem isnt it? | 14:31 |
| parapanghelescu | pumpkin: if the download is working ...than the repository link is OK ....smth is wrong in your system .....you do not have any specific errors ?? | 14:32 |
| Black_Prince | !partner | 14:32 |
| ubottu | 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" » | 14:32 |
| airtonix | _raven_, not as far as i'm aware. (most bioses are coded to ignore linux operating systems suspend states unless you upgrade it) | 14:32 |
| _raven_ | airtonix, the machine is able to do standby but the command is not found | 14:32 |
| dotnetted | jimcooncat: can you suggest a better way to keep all server data, user data, logs, configuration in a way that they can be easily pulled off and stuck onto another box if ubuntu decides to take a nosedive (or I accidentally delete /etc again ;)) ? - I'm kind of a self-taught linux noob - It seems like there should be a more standard way of doing this | 14:32 |
| pumpkin | parapanghelescu, no. Everything i install works (except the flashplugin-nonfree), the system has 3 months uptime. | 14:32 |
| chong | itamarc: look at X log and kernel log, is there anything wrong? | 14:32 |
| itamarc | for some reason there is nothing in the logs | 14:33 |
| parapanghelescu | pumpkin: | 14:33 |
| parapanghelescu | sorry ..I'm not able to give you any hint :( | 14:33 |
| makson | I'm trying to setup chroot env in ubnutu can someone help me out, or point me in right direction all docs seem to be from version 7. and some of the commands don't exist. | 14:33 |
| jimcooncat | dotnetted: there's no magic bullet. You have a fairly good method, though you should think about just keeping your customizations in a standard hierarchy and rsynching it prior to installing your daemons. | 14:34 |
| littlepenguin | makson http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/566 | 14:34 |
| dotnetted | jimcooncat: as far as update-manager goes - the gui has hung at "Installing ... /etc/init/mysql.conf" - after I kill the gui should I clean/purge anything w/ aptitude before attempting to upgrade mysql again to avoid corrupting anything? | 14:34 |
| makson | littlepenguin: says debian, doesn't matter if im on ubuntu? ( I'm a n00b... ) | 14:34 |
| makson | http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/566 | 14:35 |
| littlepenguin | no makson schroot is avail for ubvuntu also | 14:35 |
| Krishnandu | Hey friends, I just downloaded Aptana Studio, But I don't think it got installed. Rather I'm running directly like a stand alone program | 14:35 |
| jimcooncat | dotnetted: yes, purge, add your custom config, then install | 14:35 |
| makson | littlepenguin: its not ... i looked in package manager it's not listed? | 14:35 |
| makson | littlepenguin: do i have to manually download and compile? | 14:35 |
| airtonix | Krishnandu, thats how it works. | 14:35 |
| itamarc | chong: sorry, wrong info... there is some logs now | 14:35 |
| SimonSayez | Krishnandu, check for it in /usr/bin | 14:35 |
| makson | apt -get install schroot says it's not found | 14:36 |

| littlepenguin | makson 1 moment | 14:36 |
| makson | littlepenguin: sure thing. | 14:36 |
| airtonix | Krishnandu, Aptana "installation" involves you extracting the archive and optionally moving it to a place you want. | 14:36 |
| littlepenguin | amkson https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebootstrapChroot | 14:36 |
| chong | itamarc: just show the warning and error info ,the more the better | 14:36 |
| dotnetted | jimcooncat: thanks a bunch - you're extremely helpful - this channel is probably up in my top 5 irc channels (along w/ #android-dev) | 14:36 |
| Krishnandu | airtonix, okies, thanks :) | 14:36 |
| jimcooncat | dotnetted: Some people use cfengine or puppet, but these seem to have a learning curve I don't know where to start climbing. | 14:37 |

| foobar | How do I set up in /etc/network/interfaces a usb0? I tried doing: http://pastebin.com/RA74rDP4 but it doesn't add it when the computer restarts. Did I format it wrong? | 14:37 |
| edbian | foobar, What does the usb device do?? | 14:38 |
| jimcooncat | dotnetted: I'm playing with custom packaging instead, starting with dpkg-repack. It seems to work well with the packages I've tried, but I'm bound to run into some problems -- especially with security updates | 14:38 |

| foobar | edbian: It's connected to a beagleboard | 14:38 |
| grante | Anyone know what would cause this error? SSH dies as soon as I try to connect: *** invalid open64 call: O_CREAT without mode ***: /usr/sbin/sshd terminated | 14:38 |
| obscurant1st | some time back i used to use win key+ L to lock the user. I dont remember how i assigned that short key. someone know, where i cn assign that? | 14:39 |
| foobar | edbian: basically I'm using it to connect the beagleboard to internet | 14:39 |
| edbian | foobar, Umm, ok on that end you're over my head on that end. I'll just fix the one thing I see wrong with the file. you're missing the auto usb0 line. | 14:39 |
| edbian | foobar, If you don't have auto <deviceName> then the device doesn't come up when you boot. You have to start it with sudo ifup deviceName | 14:39 |
| jimcooncat | obscurant1st: perhaps System -> Preference -> Keyboard Shortcuts? | 14:40 |
| edbian | foobar, Either use that command (ifup) or add in the auto line (like interface lo has) and it should come up if you restart the machine or run sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart. | 14:40 |
| Black_Prince | What is wrong with java | 14:40 |
| foobar | edbian: that worked | 14:40 |
| foobar | edbian: thank you | 14:40 |
| dotnetted | jimcooncat: I considered using cfengine but I'd rather have something put together from scratch to avoid the guess work when problems arise | 14:40 |
| itamarc | now my Xorg.0.log now says: Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found) | 14:41 |
| edbian | foobar, Excellent. That was easy wasn't it?! :) | 14:41 |

| Black_Prince | I could not find sun-java6 packages | 14:42 |
| foobar | edbian: yes very. Makes sense to. :) | 14:42 |
| edbian | foobar, Good. Glad I could help. | 14:42 |
| makson | littlepenguin: that's the issue sudo apt-get install schroot it won't install so i'm stuck there | 14:42 |
| littlepenguin | blackprince sun-java6-jre | 14:42 |
| makson | littlepenguin: also this is older version of ubuntu server is 9.01 | 14:42 |
| edbian | foobar, What did you have to do to get your unorthodox hardware working? Anything tricky? | 14:42 |
| dotnetted | jimcooncat: I'm assuming building apache from src and changing its default config directory (/etc/apache2) would probably be a bad idea right? I'm not how many other packages require it to be at /etc/apache2 | 14:42 |
| littlepenguin | makson 1 moment | 14:43 |
| Black_Prince | will try | 14:43 |
| littlepenguin | ah ok makson did not know that u use 9.01 | 14:43 |
| Pici | makson: schroot is in every version of Ubuntu that is currently supported. What architecture are you on? | 14:43 |
| chong | itamarc: remove the old xorg.conf, reinstall your nvidia driver | 14:43 |
| makson | i386 | 14:44 |

| eagleflyhigh | edbian... | 14:45 |
| foobar | edbian: yeah. Seems to be the easiest way. You use a USB a to b from your computer to the BB. You have to set up an ip. Actually I had internet working oddly enough. I'm off to find out why it stopped. :P | 14:45 |

| istvan | hey, when I log into my freshly installed Ubuntu 10.04 i get up to entering my password - then I just get the background and cursor.. but doesn't complete the log in. what should I do? | 14:49 |
| super | vga..... | 14:49 |
| qbitza | Hello | 14:49 |

| hariom | firestarter? | 14:56 |
| qbitza | I like arnos-firewall | 14:56 |
| HyYo | yes | 14:56 |
| edbian | HyYo, It doesn't even type stars so that when people watch on a projector or over your shoulder they can't tell how long the password is either. | 14:56 |
| istvan | itamarc, well i'll download the driver from nvidia and install it with target disk mode I guess | 14:56 |
| itamarc | istvan: I think I will remove all nvidia packages in aptitude and see what happens | 14:56 |
| HyYo | also in mint 8.0 (on vmware) in gedit | 14:56 |
| edbian | HyYo, That's not a question. I'm telling you, it's typing the password you just can't see it typing. | 14:57 |

| econdudeawesome | / | 14:59 |
| Slart | HyYo: ubuntu doesn't use stars, dots or anything like that for when you type your password in a terminal.. nothing happens visually when you press a key for a password | 14:59 |

| HyYo | i typed password correctly but it give me login faild | 14:59 |
| hariom | Why is it better? | 14:59 |
| Slart | kurtb141: go ahead.. give 64bit a try.. 32bit will work too but 64bit can handle more memory | 15:00 |
| skumara | kurtb141, u can also use 32bit | 15:00 |
| itamarc | chong: I installed the driver from ubuntu repos with aptitude | 15:00 |
| qbitza | hariom, It's easy to configure | 15:00 |
| xangua | kurtb141: that depends, not all programs are supported or have problems with their 64bit version | 15:00 |
| kurtb141 | how do you pvtmsg on here | 15:00 |
| qbitza | hariom, edit 1 config file and you're done | 15:00 |
| qbitza | hariom, but it's flexible too | 15:00 |
| xangua | Slart: 32bit can also handle more memory with !pae | 15:00 |
| hariom | qbitza: is it gui based? | 15:01 |

| will_ | Nebulosa: thing is my fan runs at an apparently constant speed even though my computer is very hot | 15:06 |
| Slart | ubuntu: yes, a live cd can run out of memory... internt connection speed depends on a lot of thing.. you might want to specify if you're using a wifi-connection or wired connection | 15:06 |
| ShoCkRaVeR | if i want to save the .png images from the backgroud of backtrack 4 where do i find them | 15:06 |

| yessir_turan | Has anyone used exchange 2007 with evolution on ubuntu 10.04? | 16:13 |
| DesiArnez6 | Yesterday's update wiped out my sound, and changed my volume settings. Ubuntu 9.04 and I thought I used to see ALSA. Can someone help? | 16:13 |
| yessir_turan | arvind_khadri: That was my question. | 16:13 |
| itamarc | chong: not solved yet, but I need to go now... thanks for your help, later I'll try to fix it. | 16:13 |
| SimonSayez | Anyone get Google Earth work on Ubuntu Linux yet ? | 16:13 |
| BigMao | Hi there .. is anyone here experienced at using Evolution? I somehow lost 95% of my message headers so my emails are not searchable, although they are present. | 16:13 |
| xangua | alAtharee: better try a real install, what do you mena by slow¿¿ it freezes¿¿¿ | 16:13 |
| opij | google earth is in the repositories and can be installed online as well but it keeps crashing. can anyone help me with this please? | 16:13 |
| arvind_khadri | yessir_turan, what exactly do you want to know? | 16:14 |
| chong | itamarc: you are wellcom :-D | 16:14 |
| abhijit | hii | 16:14 |
| alAtharee | yeah and there are no signs of system strain, it just dosnt launch applications for awhile | 16:14 |
| SimonSayez | opij, Did you go to the Google site and download it directly ? | 16:14 |
| DesiArnez6 | SimonSayez, Awhile ago on my old computer with gutsy, now I can't get it to work, I have 9.04 now | 16:14 |
| alAtharee | then will launch them all at once | 16:14 |
| jackfruit_bill_ | Hi all , is there any alternate ways of connecting to the internet , apart from using nm-applet ? | 16:14 |
| opij | opij, i | 16:14 |
| opij | SimonSayez, i've tried that as well | 16:14 |
| SimonSayez | DesiArnez6, yeah it keeps crashing on me too with all kinds of errors | 16:15 |
| yessir_turan | arvind_khadri: I just want to know if anybody has used evolution with exchange 2007 on ubuntu 10.04. Because my out of the box evolution, with all the updates/upgraded doesn't support 2007, it only supports 2003. | 16:15 |
| yessir_turan | So if anybody knows it can run, and how its done, then I would want to know that. | 16:15 |
| DesiArnez6 | opij, I got the same problem | 16:15 |
| SimonSayez | DesiArnez6, make a report out to google that Google Earth keeps crashing on Ubuntu Linux systems | 16:16 |

| maco | demoneye: exactly | 16:16 |
| DasEi | SimonSayez: , opij : do following | 16:16 |
| jackfruit_bill_ | I find that in Lucid , if the nm-applet is not available for any reason, is there any other application or tool that will allow me to establish the network connections | 16:16 |
| nucc1 | the volume applet doesn't show on my laptop anymore, how can i get it back? | 16:17 |

| shiki- | hello guys. a short question and maybe someone knows the answer. I installed a new kernel with -ck patchset. Everythin went good, except this part: "sudo cp /usr/share/kernel-package/examples/etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs /etc/kernel/postinst.d/" I skipped these steps, it installed fine, running fine. However, it says it coulndn't find modules.dep (at boot) | 16:17 |
| shiki- | The file exists, and I have no idea what could I do :/ | 16:17 |
| DasEi | SimonSayez: , opij : pastie comin', second | 16:17 |
| c3l | jackfruit_bill_: nm-applet is just a frontend to I think NetworkManager, but why dont you want to use nm-applet? | 16:17 |
| froschi | uh, i got a bit of a problem now... borked my xorg... need to bring up existing wlan or broadband from the commandline to fix... howto? | 16:17 |
| c3l | is it possible to remove a user from a group, and make that change apply without reloggin the user in question? | 16:18 |
| SimonSayez | DasEi, okay making a note of that | 16:18 |
| DesiArnez6 | SimonSayez, I don't know how to do that since I've never made a bug report. When I try to open googleearth from the terminal, It tells me a txt file that it saved about the error, I don't know where to send | 16:18 |

| TheSkeward | Hi. Trying to connect to the Internet on a 2Wire 1701HG Gateway router. Every time I attempt to connect, the computer freezes and has to be manually restarted. I'm able to connect to the neighbor's wireless easily, so it's nothing to do with the computer, the drivers, or the wireless card. The router is encrypted and I know the key, but I don't know how to configure the connection. Can anyone help me? | 16:18 |
| jackfruit_bill_ | c3L: NetworkManager does not provide any functionality to dial or connect or link up , it just allows me to add or setup connections , nm-applet is what allows me to connect | 16:19 |
| DasEi | SimonSayez: , opij : then reinstall again | 16:19 |
| demoneye | maco: It's done. But on my Ubuntu monitor settings, it only show two options: - http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/3he2UsEg | 16:19 |
| wazzup | so abhijit i should just install the normal one ? | 16:19 |
| xangua | alAtharee: no, i have no idea which one of a thounsand causes would be that your ubuntu runs slow, better give details here in the channel to get help from everyone | 16:19 |
| DesiArnez6 | Yesterday's update wiped out my sound, and changed my volume settings. Ubuntu 9.04 and I thought I used to see ALSA. Can someone help? | 16:19 |

| wazzup | i have a normal laptop | 16:20 |
| wazzup | a hp laptop | 16:20 |

| maco | demoneye: if you run "xrandr" does it list the new one? | 16:20 |
| maco | demoneye: and did you associate it to the monitor? | 16:20 |
| c3l | wazzup: yeah go for normal, netbook doesnt really increase performace much, but it has a interface I just cant use | 16:20 |
| wazzup | dv6 2120ed | 16:20 |
| wazzup | hp | 16:20 |

| froschi | chong: i tried. doesn't do anything | 16:23 |
| chong | froschi: which version are you using? | 16:23 |
| froschi | chong: this is a broadband connection/dial in, which is not configured as default or so i think | 16:23 |
| SimonSayez | What is signal 6 error ? | 16:23 |
| froschi | chong: 10.04 ofc | 16:23 |
| DasEi | froschi: edit /etc/network/interfaces, restart network | 16:24 |
| chong | see /etc/network/interfaces | 16:24 |
| froschi | DasEi: maybe. what should i enter in 'interfaces' for the broadband? any examples? | 16:24 |

| froschi | DasEi: in general yes | 16:25 |
| jackfruit_bill_ | c3l: is there a command line backend to NetworkManager and or nm-applet , which i can rely on if the nm-applet gui is not working for me ? | 16:25 |
| mfilipe | Pici, thanks | 16:26 |
| froschi | DasEi: normall i click on the network manager icon in the taskbar -> <configured-broadband-name> and it works.... only X isn't coming up atm | 16:26 |
| froschi | jackfruit_bill_: i just found | 16:26 |
| DasEi | froschi: still doesn't give the info, try sudo ifup eth0 | 16:27 |
| froschi | jackfruit_bill_: cnetworkmanager ... dunno if it's in ubuntu though. and i cant install without network here :/ | 16:27 |
| rainrain | am doing a bit of research about the use of 3G usb modems with ubuntu because im going to my friends house later to try to get a 3G modem hooked up to an ubuntu computer he has - it seems people were saying at one stage that ubuntu were going to make it plug an play .... yet when he plugs it in, nothing pops up, so does anyone know of a good up to date resource on this - soory im not really... | 16:27 |
| rainrain | ...an ubuntu buff either, thanks | 16:27 |
| demoneye | maco: some commands done work for me: xrandr --output LVDS --mode 1024x768 | 16:27 |
| froschi | DasEi: what info? why shout broadband be eth0? 'ignoring unknown interface' | 16:28 |
| TheSkeward | Hi. Trying to connect to the Internet on a 2Wire 1701HG Gateway router. Every time I attempt to connect, the computer freezes and has to be manually restarted. I'm able to connect to the neighbor's wireless easily, so it's nothing to do with the computer, the drivers, or the wireless card. I also have no idea whether it's WPA or WEP. Can anyone help me? | 16:28 |
| c3l | jackfruit_bill_: hm yeah there is some terminal based network managers, ill check if I can find any. btw, why wont nm-applet work? | 16:28 |
| DasEi | froschi: I still don't get your connection type.. is it a router providing dhcp ? what's the output of ifconfig ? | 16:29 |
| froschi | c3l: in my case because x doesnt' start :) | 16:29 |
| TechMiX | rainrain: the support of 3g modems is just really weak .. i am using one and i have to use it in virtual machine (windows) and share the internet in ubuntu! | 16:29 |
| DesiArnez6 | SimonSayez, I don't get the Fatal error (First two lines) but the last part is the same about debugging info being logged | 16:29 |
| jackfruit_bill_ | c3l: nm-applet suddenly stopped appearing for me , though it is back now , i was left without net connection for 2 days ,because of missing nm-applet | 16:30 |
| SimonSayez | Sorry I was dropped by the channel | 16:30 |
| froschi | DasEi: nope. it's an internal umts. it works. i have configured it fine under nm-applet. nm-tool even shows it. i just cannot start it in lieu of something like cnetworkmanager, from the command line, because my X is defective, have only console atm | 16:30 |
| c3l | froschi: oh, so do you know any terminal based frontend for network manger? | 16:30 |
| kurtb141 | I burned the ubuntu 10.04 to a disc and place in into cd drive restart computer then go to the cd boot selection and it doesn't read the disc. I have tried making different copies and downloading again any help available? | 16:30 |
| rainrain | TechMiX: thanks .... however there's lots of people on forums saying they got it working fine | 16:31 |
| c3l | jackfruit_bill_: oh, that sux =/ i cant find any, but I know there is, ill look some more | 16:31 |
| DasEi | froschi : ic, sorry no experience on umts here | 16:31 |

| bandeira | kurtb141: have you tried to put your cd driver as primary boot? | 16:31 |
| SimonSayez | kurtb141, Change your BIOS settings to boot from CDROM | 16:31 |
| kurtb141 | bandeira, yes I press f12 go to boot from cd drive | 16:31 |
| froschi | DasEi: the problem is not umts or not, only how to use Networkmanager from cli, without gui | 16:31 |
| maco | demoneye: well the name you gave it was 1024x768_60.00 | 16:31 |
| jackfruit_bill_ | c3l: ok! | 16:32 |
| maco | demoneye: not just 1024x768 | 16:32 |

| DasEi | froschi: can try sudo pppoeconf , idk how interfaces handles it | 16:32 |
| kurtb141 | wechat, 1 disc | 16:32 |
| bandeira | kurtb141: he means if you burn correctly the file. | 16:32 |
| TechMiX | rainrain: well that was my experience.. generaly speaking, it's risky! ... be sure them modem is supported and works with ubuntu then buy it! | 16:32 |
| TechMiX | rainrain: the* | 16:32 |
| froschi | c3l: and btw there is netm-cli. only not for ubuntu either it seems (and not for me without network :) | 16:33 |
| rainrain | TechMiX: thanks anyway though | 16:33 |
| elitexray | I always get "desktop effects could not be enabled" after installing certain drivers for my graphics card. And I would always reformat to fix this. | 16:33 |
| c3l | jackfruit_bill_: as froschi says, cnetworkmanager, but its not in the ubuntu repos. I remember using it when I was running archlinux, and its nice | 16:33 |
| kurtb141 | i did as the download site said. download the infra recorder then burn the image to cd | 16:33 |
| bandeira | kurtb141: can you see which files your cd contains? | 16:33 |
| jackfruit_bill_ | c3l: ok , i'll try that | 16:34 |
| kurtb141 | bandeira: one second | 16:34 |
| c3l | jackfruit_bill_: jackfruit_bill_ or as froschi said, netm-cli, though not in the repo either. I dont know which one is best | 16:34 |

| TheSkeward | I'm trying to configure my wireless connection. It's encrypted with WEP-Open. It's set to use the default encryption key (the ten-digit code on the botom of the router). Looking through the router settings, I see that under Connection Information, it also has a "Key Code", which is a 20-digit number/letter combo in blocks of four, separated by hyphens. Do I need to enter these both in somewhere when configuring my connection? | 16:38 |

| bandeira | kurtb141: yeah.. it seems like a hardware trouble. | 16:46 |
| bandeira | kurtb141: give a chance for your pendrive.. it'll just work fine. a little slower but it will. | 16:47 |

| TheSkeward | I am capable of connecting to my router. However, when I attempt to connect using WEP-open and my default encryption key, my computer freezes as soon as it tries to connect, and must be restarted. What can I do to fix this? | 16:54 |

| psyt7 | froschi: looking at this on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsPoulsbo | 16:55 |
| crazygir | hiya hiya, so this issue is really on xubuntu, but I think this applies more to ubuntu, and no one in #xubuntu has been able to help. | 16:55 |
| crazygir | hiya, so I'm upgrading my system and am at the dreaded update menu.lst step. I usually have problems with this if I don't pay attention and/or trust xubuntu too much, and then have to go fix the entries. The first thing I noticed in comparing the two versions is that the UUIDs are not the same for the old/new menu.lst entries | 16:56 |
| psyt7 | froschi: new laptop. seems like a bad choice so far ;) | 16:56 |
| ikonia | crazygir: you shouldn't have to touch menu.lst | 16:56 |
| aef | hi, what could cause that drag and drop on my gnome desktop doesn't work with lucid? | 16:56 |
| crazygir | I haven't formatted or changed any of the partitions (indeed, I've only rebooted once since the last update), so the UUID should not be different | 16:56 |
| crazygir | ikonia: I know, and every time I've trusted the system with that I've gotten screwed | 16:56 |
| xangua | aef: drag and drop from where to where¿ | 16:57 |
| crazygir | due to the UUID being changed | 16:57 |
| aef | xangua: i can drag things but they won't stay. for example app starters in the upper bar or moving symbols on the desktop | 16:57 |
| ikonia | crazygir: what has changed that has caused you a problem | 16:57 |
| crazygir | (it saying the UUID is different when it isn't) | 16:57 |
| crazygir | I haven't touched menu.lst, so the update should be trustworthy | 16:57 |
| wazzup | <ikonia> wazzup: just change it in network manager < where can i find teh network manager ? | 16:57 |
| ikonia | crazygir: then I'd log a bug with the grub-legacy package on launchpad.net | 16:57 |
| crazygir | ikonia: but the updater is telling me the UUID is different | 16:58 |
| thune3 | crazygir: UUID is part of the filesystem, you didn't create a new filesystem (on an existing partition)? | 16:58 |
| crazygir | nope | 16:58 |
| ikonia | wazzup: systems->preference->network connections | 16:58 |
| ikonia | crazygir: log a bug | 16:58 |
| crazygir | how do you check the UUID for a volume again? | 16:58 |
| ikonia | sudo blkid | 16:58 |
| ikonia | crazygir: how can you not know the command, yet you know they haven't changed ? | 16:58 |
| froschi | psyt7: yeah, i'm at the 'drmOpen failed' stage atm :/ | 16:58 |

| kreme191 | chong: ok I will do that, do I find grub config by using the terminal or when the grub prompt comes up | 17:36 |
| c3l | but also, the user is still in the admin group, how do I fix this without leaving the sessin, ie relogging | 17:36 |

| Oer | tomoya, fedora howto's do not work on ubuntu wich is debian-based | 17:38 |
| kreme191 | chong: i will do that and come back if i have questions, thanks | 17:38 |
| abhijit | siri_, but dont go for that if you are willing to use it for day to day main purposes. | 17:38 |
| linguinii | Do the "user settings" have any merit? I see basic thing such as "Use audio devices" unchecked. (?) | 17:38 |
| chong | kreme191: :-D | 17:38 |
| sacarlson | lucenut: funny thing I have eclipse installed but don't remember running it before and I don't think it's standard install | 17:39 |
| tomoya | Oer: Are you sure? The driver compiled from scratch properly, and many people from ubuntu forums have linked to that tutorial | 17:39 |
| ecrane | Where can I find some themes for Ubuntu 8.04 please? | 17:39 |
| cbill | gnome-look.org | 17:40 |
| kurokugen | Unfortunately I'm on a Mac right now and can't look.... If you go to /mnt/ in File Browser do you see your mounted network point? | 17:40 |
| lucenut | I don't see anything under /mnt | 17:40 |
| Oer | tomya, did you succeed step 6 ? fedora=su / ubuntu=sudo | 17:41 |
| lucenut | But I see my windows shares in the left pane of the file browser. | 17:41 |
| lucenut | When I hover over the windows share I see smb://server/wwwroot/ | 17:42 |
| kurokugen | Have you tried asking in #eclipse? They may be able to help. Unfortunately I'm away from my Linux box! | 17:42 |
| lucenut | But I try just typing that into the browse utility with no luck. | 17:42 |
| lucenut | Nah, I'll try there. | 17:42 |
| lojack | Anyone know if there is a way to disable the use of FUSE when mounting NTFS drives? | 17:42 |
| sacarlson | lucenut: browse utility like firefox? | 17:43 |
| Oer | lucenut, does eclips have acces/rights to use your server ? | 17:43 |
| Antracione | salve a tutti | 17:44 |
| lucenut | I just mean the browse button in the New Project wizard. | 17:44 |
| lucenut | I don't know anything about eclipse's rights. | 17:45 |
| KernelCrash23 | HELP PLEASE!!! | 17:45 |
| lucenut | Ubuntu can see the shares. | 17:45 |
| ikonia | calm down krafty | 17:45 |

| === Zeike is now known as brandonj | ||
| doctorZeus | anybody using software raid 5 in ubuntu? How is the performance/stability..any comparisons to a true hardware raid using a controller card? | 17:46 |
| KernelCrash23 | I was trying to upgrade my kernel to maverick one and when compiling i got a error message cuz no more space in root??? | 17:47 |
| Alonea | ever since these newer kernels came out I can't get my wireless card to reliably work anymore. Sometimes it does, most of the time it just goes into an endless connect cycle, but hardly ever successfully connects | 17:47 |
| ikonia | doctorZeus: by software raid, you mean mdadm, if you have a modern processor thats on a box thats not %90 utilised, it's perfect | 17:47 |
| ikonia | KernelCrash23: then you should know what you're doing if your custom compiling development kernels | 17:47 |
| ikonia | KernelCrash23: custom kernels are not supported here at all | 17:47 |
| KernelCrash23 | when restart i couldn's acces my session anymore cuz a power something error | 17:47 |
| sacarlson | lucenut: eclipse apears to be a software development tool. just use your home directory default to work in | 17:48 |
| ikonia | KernelCrash23: custom kernels are not supported here | 17:48 |
| KernelCrash23 | where can I found some help??? | 17:48 |
| ikonia | KernelCrash23: no idea, but we do not support custom kernels, it is assumed you know what you're doing if you're using and and building development kernels yourself | 17:48 |
| Alonea | I have been using the compiled drivers from compat-wireless (the ath9k ones) any idea whats up? | 17:49 |
| ikonia | Alonea: you've not said there is a problem | 17:49 |
| Alonea | ikonia: I did... | 17:49 |
| KernelCrash23 | I was doing well, but then i ran out of space (don't know why) | 17:49 |
| ikonia | Alonea: I've not seen | 17:49 |
| sacarlson | KernelCrash23: well with all that detailed info about power something error I'm sure we can figure it out | 17:49 |
| ikonia | KernelCrash23: please stop discussing it, it's not supported here | 17:49 |
| ikonia | sacarlson: please don't mock, it's not supported, leave it at that | 17:49 |
| doctorZeus | thanks ikonia.. that's my understanding as well. Running a c2d 2.66ghz, average utilization reports are quite low | 17:50 |
| Alonea | (12:47:15 PM) Alonea: ever since these newer kernels came out I can't get my wireless card to reliably work anymore. Sometimes it does, most of the time it just goes into an endless connect cycle, but hardly ever successfully connects | 17:50 |
| aquifex | hi | 17:50 |
| ikonia | doctorZeus: I have excellent performance on both raid 1, 5 and 6 | 17:50 |
| wildc4rd | evenin' all! | 17:50 |
| aquifex | where are stored in ubuntu the data from routine disk integrity checks? | 17:51 |
| KernelCrash23 | very nice sarcasm sacarlson... I new but not noob OK, is that a sin or what??? Sometimes Linux geek think they are God or something... | 17:51 |
| ikonia | KernelCrash23: please drop it | 17:51 |
| doctorZeus | have you lost power abruptly? What kind of issues should I expect? I have an old UPS going but it's only good for a couple of minutes and I tend to get 5-10min drops in my area from time to time | 17:51 |
| aquifex | I've had an "error on root partition" fixed by the system but i am not sure it is safe to use this installation now... | 17:52 |
| ikonia | doctorZeus: I was losing power recently funny enough, and I've had zero issue with array rebuild | 17:52 |
| Alonea | before the only drivers that would get my wireless to work is the ones from compat-wireless, but now they don't. They worked perfectly at first, but as ubuntu has updated, its stopped | 17:52 |
| ikonia | aquifex: very safe | 17:52 |
| doctorZeus | excellent.. worth a shot | 17:52 |
| aquifex | @ikonia the error appeared after some random boot failures on my pc, probably hardware-caused | 17:53 |
| doctorZeus | I will keep all of my critical stuff double backDupD on a USB until my confidence level comes around | 17:53 |
| aquifex | i was worried that the reset can damage my system | 17:53 |
| kjcole | I installed a fresh 10.04 a few weeks ago, and have been updating diligently. I noticed that /etc/motd -> /var/run/motd which is not present on my system. Which package would be the place to report or search for the bug? | 17:53 |
| KernelCrash23 | I came here for help and I got nothing. Stupid geeks... FUCK THAT!!! | 17:54 |
| aquifex | i am on 8.04 LTS | 17:54 |
| Alonea | ikonia: this has been what I have been using for the last few months with no issues until recently: http://linuxon1001p.blogspot.com/2010/03/fixing-wireless.html | 17:54 |
| maco | kjcole: its not on mine either | 17:54 |
| zkriesse | KernelCrash23: What your language | 17:54 |
| coz_ | KernelCrash23, you have to be patient... | 17:54 |
| coz_ | KernelCrash23, if you ask and no one knows the answer somtimes unfortunately they dont answer | 17:54 |
| coz_ | KernelCrash23, however you can also visit ##linux channel | 17:54 |
| doctorZeus | Alonea I actually had the same issue..it would randomly lose it's mind and drop the wireless connection, using a linksys pci card. I could not find a solution, but switching to an old linksys usb adapter seemed to fix the problem (mostly), it only dropped a few times in a couple of weeks opposed to a few times a day | 17:55 |
| aquifex | so the "errors on root partition" will not damage my critical files? | 17:55 |
| bihari | kernelcrash whats you question? | 17:55 |
| ikonia | he's gone | 17:55 |
| iktomi | do any of you know where i can find all of the gnome launcher scripts? | 17:55 |
| Alonea | doctorZeus: well, the thing is, it used to work perfectly, now I have only gotten it to connect twice maybe in the last couple weeks | 17:55 |
| aquifex | ...is ubuntu so failsafe? | 17:55 |
| jonathanrlively | Hi there, wondering if anyone has run into this problem- tried to change login sound(using ubuntustudio 10.04) in /usr/share/sounds/ubuntustudio/stereo/ and now have no login sound. Tried to change back to default and still no login sound. | 17:56 |
| iktomi | i'm trying to add the Log Out launcher to a menu but i don't know the name of it, so i want to find out where all of those are located | 17:56 |
| doctorZeus | Same with me Alonea. I was I had been paying better attention but it seemed to start immediately following an update | 17:56 |
| coz_ | jonathanrlively, is the new log in sound an .ogg or .wav?? | 17:56 |
| kjcole | maco: Doesn't seem like a big deal, but does seem like a bug. Just not sure which package deals w/ it. But silly me: I can check myself... | 17:56 |
| aquifex | login sound is stored somewhere | 17:56 |
| churl | How does one make Nautilus remember what app you want it to use to open a file? (Right click->Open With Other App->Remember this app is not working) | 17:56 |
| jonathanrlively | tried both file types | 17:56 |
| Alonea | doctorZeus: and the ndiswrapper was horrid before and dropped constantly so I am not going back to that | 17:56 |
| iktomi | churl: there should be an option to set default programs that is easily accessible somewhere | 17:57 |
| doctorZeus | Alonea because I had the USB card to try I didn't see how deep that rabbit hole went. Seeing as we both had the issue I'd go so far as to say other people have and their should be some bug reports out there with (hopefully) workarounds or resolved | 17:57 |
| maco | kjcole: i dont actually see any packages listed as providing /var/run/motd when i do an apt-file search | 17:57 |
| iktomi | i saw it while looking through one of the menus | 17:57 |
| jonathanrlively | and changing back to the exact same default login sound config still doesn't work | 17:57 |
| coz_ | jonathanrlively, ok check under system/preferences/ sound to be sure nothing is musted and also with alsamixer in the terminal | 17:57 |
| Larimani | flash videos (youtube) are choppy on my new lubuntu install... those vids play fine on windows 7... any idea why? | 17:57 |
| Alonea | doctorZeus: well, my card isn't linksys. Its a netbook with..let me look that up again | 17:57 |
| coz_ | jonathanrlively, they sould be .ogg files I believe | 17:58 |
| bathacid | hello | 17:58 |
| kjcole | maco: see /var/lib/dpkg/info/initscripts.postinst | 17:58 |
| iktomi | so do any of you know how i can add the Log Out button (addable in the "add to panel" window, but i don't know the name of it to add it to a menu)? | 17:58 |
| coz_ | jonathanrlively, i am also assuming you renamed the new file to the same name as the old one ...yes?? | 17:58 |
| jonathanrlively | system/preferences/sound is fine and all other sounds play fine- just the login won't work anymore | 17:58 |
| sacarlson | Larimani: maybe change the cache mem or whatever the buffer mem | 17:58 |
| Alonea | 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Atheros AR8132 / L1c Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (rev c0) | 17:58 |
| Alonea | 02:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. Device 002c (rev 01) | 17:58 |
| Larimani | thanks sacarlson, I'll look into that | 17:59 |
| kjcole | maco: It doesn't provide /var/run/motd, but links /etc/motd to it... | 17:59 |
| jonathanrlively | tried renaming the file to the original- desktop-login.ogg and still doesn't work | 17:59 |
| jonathanrlively | odd thing is that reverting back to the original desktop-login.ogg file doesn't work anymore either | 17:59 |
| coz_ | jonathanrlively, was this the drums one or the song one | 17:59 |
| maco | kjcole: well i dont think anything provides the file its trying to point to though | 17:59 |
| coz_ | jonathanrlively, did you restart x to test or even reboot | 17:59 |
| jonathanrlively | song one | 18:00 |
| maco | kjcole: but sure file a bug that maybe the symlink is tryign to link to the wrong place | 18:00 |
| kjcole | maco: as does base-files.postinst | 18:00 |
| doctorZeus | does anyone know where the ubuntu update change logs get posted to? | 18:00 |
| jonathanrlively | restarted x and rebooted several times- no luck | 18:00 |
| coz_ | jonathanrlively, so it was the deskto-login.ogg ..yes? | 18:00 |
| bjhaid | hi, i successfully had a adhoc wifi connection with a vista machine, but i could not share files, i have samba installed, can anyone pls help out on this? | 18:00 |
| coz_ | jonathanrlively, rather desktop-login.ogg | 18:00 |
| jonathanrlively | yes, desktop-login.ogg | 18:01 |
| coz_ | jonathanrlively, let me find another sound here and test hold on | 18:01 |
| sacarlson | bjhaid: adhoc conection so you can ping him? | 18:01 |
| bjhaid | sacarlson: i can ping, though it took a while before i had a succesful ping | 18:02 |

| sacarlson | bjhaid: do you just want to move one file or many? | 18:03 |
| jonathanrlively | tried changing the setting in system/preferences/startup applications/Gnome login sound and no luck. Tried changing manually as root in /usr/share/sound/ubuntustudio/stereo and no luck either | 18:03 |
| Alonea | ok, how about this then is there a way to go back to a previous kernel? | 18:03 |
| coz_ | jonathanrlively, mmm ok its going to take me a while to test ... I have to increase volumes on these sound files I have | 18:03 |
| bjhaid | sacarlson: i wan to be able to share resources, move files and sorts, just be able to access both pcs | 18:03 |
| jonathanrlively | apparently canberra-gtk-play is the application that plays the login sound but can't find much documentation on it | 18:04 |
| Larimani | sacarlson, the problem doesn't seem to be with the buffer thing because flash video plays fine in normal size. only starts lagging in full-screen. does flash for linux not use accelerated graphics? | 18:04 |
| vipinb | Hi all | 18:04 |
| bathacid | hello vipinb | 18:04 |
| vipinb | I'm getting my syslog is populated this message completly "ratelimit.c: 661 events suppressed" | 18:04 |
| edbian | Larimani, It is poorly written I know. I'm not sure if it accelerated or not. I just know it runs crappy on pretty much every system. | 18:05 |
| vipinb | anyone know to solve this issue | 18:05 |
| vipinb | please | 18:05 |
| Larimani | edbian: :( | 18:05 |
| sacarlson | Larimani: sounds like your not using the best video drivers | 18:05 |
| littlepenguin | edbian i save them as movie file and use vlc | 18:05 |
| coz_ | jonathanrlively, right you could try to reinstall libcanberra-common | 18:05 |
| vipinb | Hi bathacid | 18:06 |
| bjhaid | sacarlson: i wan to be able to share resources, move files and sorts, just be able to access both pcs | 18:06 |
| vipinb | can you help me on this issue | 18:06 |
| edbian | littlepenguin, clever! | 18:06 |
| Larimani | sacarlson: I'm using the open-source ones i think... because when i go into the "Hardware Drivers" it's empty in there... which is strange because i does find my card in Ubuntu but not in Lubuntu | 18:06 |
| aquifex | do someone know where are stored reports from routine system integrity check | 18:06 |
| aquifex | please? | 18:06 |
| jonathanrlively | coz, will give that a shot now. let you know how that works out in a minute. Thank you. | 18:07 |
| sacarlson | bjhaid: can you connect with a wire first and get the samba working before you deal with the wifi problems? | 18:07 |

| coz_ | jonathanrlively, just a hint...when talking with someone specifically...type the first 2 or 3 letters of their name and hit the tab key to complete ...this way the person will be alerted | 18:08 |
| edbian | !tab | 18:08 |
| ubottu | 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. | 18:08 |

| aquifex | ...are the reports stored somewhere? | 18:08 |
| jonathanrlively | coz, did that work? been awhile since I used irc | 18:09 |
| sacarlson | Larimani: maybe it's a flash thing | 18:09 |
| bjhaid | sacarlson: with wire, without samba i can access the vista machine, and that's adequate for me, though i would like to get samba working but what i have already would be adequate with the wifi | 18:09 |

| sacarlson | bjhaid: oh windows from ubuntu that's not going to help you then | 18:14 |
| sacarlson | bjhaid: I guess you will need samba then | 18:15 |
| iktomi | n00bzies: what's the issue you're having | 18:15 |
| iktomi | sacarlson: windows can also use NFS | 18:15 |
| bjhaid | sacarlson: lemme know how u get the apache2 done, could be an interesting challenge | 18:15 |
| iktomi | windows doesn't setup NFS support by default though. you have to add it using the add/remove apps thing | 18:15 |
| Mortuis | Is there a way to have both Firefox 3.5.9 AND the current firefox on my 10.04 system at the same time? | 18:16 |
| sacarlson | bjhaid: iktomi maybe that would be easier. nfs has very little security | 18:16 |
| lojack | vipinb: Does your question relate to a mediacenter PC? | 18:16 |
| hsa2 | why ubuntu is using pulseaudio while it's not stable yet? | 18:16 |
| sacarlson | bjhaid: iktomi: only thing I used nfs for was boot off network | 18:17 |
| iktomi | sacarlson: yeah do a google search for your version of windows and you shuld be able to find plenty of info. about it | 18:17 |
| edbian | Mortuis, Yes, go to the website and compile 3.5.9 by hand and give it a different name. | 18:17 |
| DasEi | hsa2: I like pulse | 18:17 |
| bjhaid | sacarlson: how do i get nfs working? | 18:17 |
| edbian | Mortuis, The current version will be handled by the package manager. The package manager will not be aware of this older version. | 18:17 |
| hsa2 | DasEi, is it because you like it? | 18:17 |
| iktomi | bjhaid: on windows? | 18:17 |
| sacarlson | bjhaid: google find the driver | 18:17 |
| hsa2 | when i hit pause on a youtube video i still hear sound of video for half a second, i hate pulseaudio | 18:17 |
| vipinb | lojack: I'm using ubuntu 10.04 when ever I play sound in my system my syslog is populated with "Ratelimit.c: 92 events suppressed" message | 18:17 |
| bjhaid | sacarlson: the driver works on both right? | 18:18 |
| Mortuis | edbian: great, thanks | 18:18 |
| barf00365 | Hi all, my 10.04 server installation refuses to power off. Running sudo shutdown -P now results in everything correctly shutting down but then it hangs on a 'System Halted' message. Anyone any ideas? | 18:18 |
| sacarlson | bjhaid: setup the nfs on windows first nfs is easy on linux | 18:18 |
| edbian | Mortuis, Yep. | 18:18 |
| iktomi | bjhaid: yes google "windows NFS" to figure out how to get NFS support on windows | 18:18 |
| DasEi | hsa2: I had my time to understand it, it's not like alsa or oss, but acts as a proxy to intermediate between different sound apps | 18:18 |
| iktomi | it is incredibly easy | 18:18 |
| edbian | barf00365, Did you try shutdown -h (for halt) Does shutdown -r work?? | 18:18 |
| bjhaid | iktomi: thanks, i would read it up | 18:18 |
| DasEi | hsa2: I just switched over, what's your issue ? | 18:18 |
| hsa2 | DasEi, i have not one, i have more than one | 18:19 |
| hsa2 | as i said: when i hit pause on a youtube video i still hear sound of video for half a second, i hate pulseaudio | 18:19 |
| barf00365 | edbian : shutdown -r works and reboots but shutdown -h gives me the same system halted error and then just sits there until I press the power button | 18:19 |
| sacarlson | bjhaid: but I don't recall using it for this before but eather way will work eather get samba to work or nfs on windows | 18:19 |

| x_link | I want to run a program as root, so I type in "su" in the terminal. Then it asks me for password. | 18:20 |
| edbian | barf00365, Sounds like a little anomily in your hardware. | 18:20 |
| jonathanrlively | cozziemoto: don't have a libcanberra-common package available. Tried reinstalling libcanberra-gtk-module and still no luck | 18:20 |

| jonathanrlively | Alonea: that's what I was afraid of. Atheros chipsets are notoriously buggy with linux systems. I just had a problem with the exact same 8132 chipset on a client's laptop and ended up having to reinstall Windows 7 which broke my heart | 18:34 |

| jonathanrlively | Alonea: yeah, definitely a kernel version problem with the driver modules used. I always have problems with hardware vendors like Atheros and ATI and linux. They only offer limited support for their hardware. Next kernel update might break your ethernet too. | 18:46 |
| Lizzard88 | When running the app, the app doesn't start and i get that message from PlayonLinux | 18:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Lizzard88: ok, what app? | 18:46 |
| Lizzard88 | Fallout 3 | 18:46 |
| ActionParsnip | oops, misread | 18:46 |
| Alonea | jonathanrlively: if I wasn't already stressed out I would reinstall OS, but I need to calm down | 18:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Lizzard88: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=14322 have you read that? | 18:47 |
| NRemorse | Anybody else wanna take a stab at my crontab problemo? It lists when i "crontab -l" but never executes the command. i can execute it manually and it works so its not syntax! | 18:47 |
| oka | ok, so | 18:47 |
| oka | sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh | 18:47 |
| jonathanrlively | Alonea: hahaha, I feel your pain. I've spent the last two days just trying to get my login sound to work. Not a big deal but, stuff like that drives me crazy. And wireless connectivity is way more important. | 18:47 |
| Lizzard88 | yes | 18:47 |
| ActionParsnip | oka: sudo apt-get install libdvdread4; sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh done | 18:48 |
| sacarlson | NRemorse: did you try add a line to the crontab file like I told you? | 18:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | jonathanrlively, Alonea you guys should see if installing "dkms" helps for your kernel update issues | 18:48 |
| oka | nic | 18:48 |
| oka | nice | 18:48 |
| oka | Setting up libdvdcss2 (1.2.10-0.3medibuntu1) ... | 18:48 |
| NRemorse | sacarlson: oh you meant an empty line | 18:48 |
| ActionParsnip | Lizzard88: ok then it gets a gold rating so should run great | 18:48 |
| Alonea | ZykoticK9: what is that? | 18:48 |
| oka | thanks! | 18:48 |
| Lizzard88 | ? | 18:48 |
| ZykoticK9 | !info dkms | 18:48 |
| ActionParsnip | oka: amazing what the official docs tell you eh ;) | 18:48 |
| ubottu | dkms (source: dkms): Dynamic Kernel Module Support Framework. In component main, is optional. Version 2.1.1.2-2fakesync1 (lucid), package size 68 kB, installed size 460 kB | 18:48 |
| Lizzard88 | This does not solve the problem | 18:48 |
| sacarlson | NRemorse: yes newline blank line whatever | 18:48 |
| Alonea | ZykoticK9: I mean, the kernel updates fine, it just breaks my wireless drivers | 18:49 |
| Lizzard88 | Apparently, I dont have 3d acc | 18:49 |
| oka | ActionParsnip, I guess it is non-official for legal reasons :) | 18:49 |
| ActionParsnip | Lizzard88: i'd ask in #winehq as long as you have 3D accelleration running it should be fine (if you are runing compiz etc then you have 3D accel) | 18:49 |
| ZykoticK9 | Alonea, it "should" install modules automatically when you update your kernel (might not work depending on what your modules are/or how they where installed) | 18:49 |
| ActionParsnip | oka: pretty much,yep. Only open source stuff is on the install CD | 18:49 |

| NRemorse | sacarlson: i added a line in between the 2 lines good? | 18:50 |
| ZykoticK9 | KE1HA, careful with winetrick - i've had a lot more issues with it recently, then i used too. | 18:50 |
| Alonea | ZykoticK9: that sounds familar...I might already have that | 18:51 |

| NRemorse | sacarlson: what should i do after dat? | 18:51 |
| KE1HA | ZykoticK9, rrr .. I dont use them, but some folks do, and / or need too for whatever reason. | 18:51 |
| sacarlson | NRemorse: ok wait and see | 18:51 |
| ActionParsnip | oka: indeed, its so that a single ISO can traverse the globe without worrying about local laws | 18:51 |
| sacarlson | NRemorse: make a new line that hapens in 2 min so we don't have to wait | 18:52 |

| NRemorse | i guess i can also put 0/2 couldn't i? | 18:53 |
| ActionParsnip | Xpistos: boot to live cd and ceck fstab in the installed system compared to the output of: sudo blkid | 18:53 |
| ZykoticK9 | WorldBFree, you could try lubuntu if you wished | 18:53 |
| ActionParsnip | WorldBFree: Lubuntu | 18:53 |
| ghoulmann | WorldBFree: Turnkey Linux core is built on Hardy. | 18:54 |
| ActionParsnip | lubuntu in all cases :) | 18:54 |
| sacarlson | NRemorse: ya that means it will start at 12:00 and 12:02 | 18:54 |
| WorldBFree | sweet thanks guys, just what i was looking for | 18:54 |
| kris33 | Hi everyone. If you're for legalization, please help spread this: http://digg.com/politics/Glenn_Beck_and_Sarah_Palin_supports_Marijuana_legalization | 18:54 |
| ActionParsnip | WorldBFree: theres also fluxbuntu and moonos, none of these derivitive OSes are supported here | 18:54 |

| clarinet | Hi, guys. How long does compiling the kernel takes? | 18:55 |
| ActionParsnip | clarinet: how long is a piece of string. | 18:55 |
| ZykoticK9 | clarinet, depeneds on your system | 18:55 |
| KE1HA | LOL | 18:55 |
| Nebulosa | clarinet: CPU? | 18:55 |
| guzu | i've installed 10.04 on a k50in asus notebook, and it hangs at reboot, after displaying "Restarting system" | 18:56 |
| guzu | any idea? | 18:56 |
| ActionParsnip | clarinet: depends on a whole host of stuff, CPU speed, bus speed, ram amount, drive speed, drive seek time, amount of modules | 18:56 |
| Milp_main | Hey guys, why cant i connect my ubuntu laptop to the ad-hoc wifi network of my android cell? (unsecured) Wicd cant obtain an ip adress from it, however it works on my windows systems | 18:56 |

| kreme191 | i'm using the live cd to configure grub to boot both windows and ubuntu | 18:56 |
| clarinet | Nebulosa, AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5200+ | 18:56 |
| aquifex | is there a way to check all partitions for error - schedule that check for the next boot...(?) | 18:57 |
| Nebulosa | clarinet: about 30 minutes | 18:57 |
| ActionParsnip | clarinet: there is no real answer, people use time to time their compiles and it varys wiildly from 20 mins or so for 8 core cPU with 64Gb RAM to a few days on a Pent 200MMX with 64Mb RAM | 18:57 |
| ActionParsnip | !fsck | aquifex | 18:57 |
| ubottu | aquifex: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 18:57 |
| guzu | aquifex, try: sudo touch /.autofsck | 18:57 |
| guzu | !fsck | 18:57 |
| clarinet | OK, thanks guys. | 18:57 |
| KE1HA | Kernel Compile benchmarks, kinda old though: http://linuxgazette.net/issue32/henning2.html | 18:57 |

| guzu | !fsck | guzu | 18:58 |
| ubottu | guzu, please see my private message | 18:58 |
| aquifex | ok, running fcsk in opened system could damage filesystem? | 18:58 |
| roy_ | Is it possible to connect to a windows server from Ubuntu using a remote desktop | 18:58 |
| ActionParsnip | clarinet: check compile times online, expecting us to know is kinda a bit much, you may get slightly more luck in #gentoo | 18:58 |
| oka | Milp_main, dunno, the embarrassingly default hotspot ad-hoc password is 1234567890 and the SSID is "HTC network" | 18:58 |
| KE1HA | Just google Kernel Compile Benchmarks, there's loads of sites. | 18:58 |
| ZykoticK9 | roy_, rdesktop | 18:58 |
| ActionParsnip | roy_: sure you can use rdesktop to use the RDP protocol to connect to the Win Server | 18:58 |
| jonathanrlively | ZykoticK9: Alonea, Was unaware of DKMS but, that seems like what I've been looking for. I was about to try and write my own script to recompile drivers automatically after kernel updates. Thank you. This should save me alot of wasted time. | 18:59 |
| oka | Milp_main, dunno why they didnt let the user choose it | 18:59 |
| NRemorse | here we go...im getting excited | 18:59 |

| clarinet | ActionParsnip, OK. | 19:00 |
| guzu | how can i search the ubuntu bugs database? | 19:00 |
| sacarlson | NRemorse: if that fails I think you should reformat the disk drive..... just kiding | 19:00 |
| Milp_main | ActionParsnip yes it is based on that, but the computer is enabled in it | 19:00 |
| NRemorse | sacarlson: ahahaha | 19:00 |
| ActionParsnip | Milp_main: i'd double check the mac | 19:00 |

| guzu | abhijit, ZykoticK9 ActionParsnip thank you | 19:01 |

| Milp_main | ActionParsnip oh i forgot to mention that it always shows channel 6 for the network, no matter which channel i run it on | 19:01 |
| Milp_main | ActionParsnip so it might not be able to connect at all afterall, it used to be able to once though | 19:02 |

| guzu | aeon-ltd, nice thing, it reboots immediately, apparently before entering shutdown sequence | 19:12 |

| ActionParsnip | Xpistos: open the file in a text editor with gksudo | 19:13 |
| guzu | aeon-ltd, sorry, that was a typo, it _ hangs _ immediately | 19:13 |
| NRemorse | sacarlson: I think you have something here...crontab wants a path to run a file...you cannot just call echo | 19:13 |

| Pici | rooks: Try dpkg -L php5-adodb next time | 19:16 |
| Xpistos | ActionParsnip: but yes it is a partion from the extended | 19:16 |
| rooks | pici, thanks, but i guess im still slot since its not include files for php but module file/plugin for server... but thx anyway | 19:17 |

| ssuuddoo | i want 2 type dvorak, not qwerty | 19:23 |
| Xpistos | ActionParsnip: The superblock could not be read or does not descrie a correct ext2 fs. If the device is valid and it really cotains ext2 (which it does not ext4) fs then the superblock is corrupt and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock | 19:23 |
| ssuuddoo | and there is not yet a slovak-dvorak layout | 19:23 |

| removemefromhere | hi, plug'n'play is not working for me in ubuntu 10.04 | 19:26 |
| removemefromhere | can anyone help me? | 19:27 |
| Slart | !details | removemefromhere | 19:28 |
| ubottu | removemefromhere: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 19:28 |
| ghoulmann | In Lucid, for Firefox, where can I put bookmarks that are common to all users of firefox on that workstation? | 19:30 |
| removemefromhere | Slart, ubottu, everytime i want to connect something trough a usb port (external hd or flash memory) i have to restart | 19:30 |
| removemefromhere | to get the computer to reconigze them | 19:30 |
| removemefromhere | it's ubuntu 10.04 | 19:30 |
| ZykoticK9 | removemefromhere, just an FYI ubottu is a bot (not a real person) | 19:30 |
| sebsebseb | removemefromhere: ubottu is a computer program, not a person | 19:30 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: hmm.. that's odd.. those usually work without any problems.. | 19:31 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: do you have an usb-stick you can try with? | 19:31 |
| savid | Why is there an adobereader-deu package and not an english one? | 19:31 |
| removemefromhere | yes | 19:31 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: ok.. open a terminal (from apps, accessories, | 19:31 |
| removemefromhere | slart, yes | 19:31 |
| removemefromhere | ok | 19:32 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: and run tail -f /var/log/syslog in that terminal | 19:32 |
| ActionParsnip | savid: theres acroread too, english | 19:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | !partner | savid | 19:32 |
| ubottu | savid: 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" » | 19:32 |
| ActionParsnip | savid: run: apt-cache policy acroread | 19:32 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: that will give you a running display of the system log | 19:32 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: now connect your usb stick to a free usb port and watch what gets printed out in that window | 19:32 |
| ZykoticK9 | savid, ActionParsnip you need partner repo for acroread to show up | 19:33 |
| abhijit | bye | 19:33 |
| removemefromhere | ok, Slart | 19:33 |
| removemefromhere | I'm going to do it | 19:33 |
| ActionParsnip | ZykoticK9: adobereader-deu is also in partner :) | 19:34 |
| ssuuddoo | any info about the layout? | 19:34 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: if you want to, you can paste it to a pastebin.. that way we can take a look at it as well | 19:34 |
| Xpistos | ActionParsnip: I double checked the UUID and I think it is the / partition | 19:34 |
| jonathanrlively | Anyone have a problem changing their login sound? Using ubuntustudio 10.04 kernel 2.6.32-24-generic | 19:34 |
| Slart | !pastebin | removemefromhere | 19:34 |
| ubottu | removemefromhere: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. | 19:34 |
| iktomi | is there any sort of program available to troubleshoot/stress test hardware/drivers? | 19:34 |
| removemefromhere | Slart, it doesn't end | 19:34 |
| iktomi | i need to figure out what is causing my system is run so poorly | 19:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Xpistos: well yeah, otherwise it'd boot | 19:34 |
| ZykoticK9 | ActionParsnip, your right ;) | 19:35 |
| ActionParsnip | iktomi: run: top and observe | 19:35 |
| removemefromhere | Slart, the terminal gets stacked up | 19:35 |
| ghoulmann | is there a way (Lucid) to have every user have the same bookmarks in firefox? | 19:35 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: press ctrl+c to stop the log display thing | 19:35 |
| iktomi | ActionParsnip: what am i looking for | 19:35 |
| Xpistos | ActionParsnip: I usually put /, boot. home, data and swap in seperate partitions | 19:35 |
| removemefromhere | slart, ok | 19:35 |
| removemefromhere | slart, sorry | 19:35 |
| ActionParsnip | iktomi: high cpu usag | 19:36 |
| Milp_main | Guys, i cant connect to ad hoc networks on my ubuntu machine, what is going wrong? Ive tried wicd | 19:36 |
| removemefromhere | slart,. this is what i get without flash memory | 19:36 |
| removemefromhere | http://pastebin.org/451398 | 19:36 |
| Xpistos | could I reinstall /boot and / and leave the rest alone? | 19:36 |
| Xpistos | leave home untouched etc | 19:36 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: just so you have something to compare with.. here's what it looks like on my machine http://paste.ubuntu.com/474175/ | 19:36 |
| iktomi | ActionParsnip: yeah the program with the highest usage is pulseaudio ranging from 5% to 10% | 19:37 |
| GeekSquid | So I installed UEC, and completly Borked my system, currently running via live disk and chrooted into my drive, ... what is the best method of reversing what eucalyptus and UEC have done to make my machine unbootable... not even in recovery mode, | 19:37 |
| n-iCe | hi, is there any way to make my connection kinda more stable? I'm not moving the pc or even the wireless card and the connections signal keeps changing, any ideas? thanks | 19:37 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: that looks normal.. but nothing else happened when you connected the usb stick? | 19:37 |
| thune3 | ghoulmann: not sure, maybe a bookmark sync add-on like https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2410/ | 19:37 |
| removemefromhere | slart, mine has nothing to do with that | 19:37 |
| removemefromhere | no | 19:37 |
| removemefromhere | Slart, the output is exactly the same | 19:37 |
| ActionParsnip | iktomi: sounds fine, have you installed / configured video drivers | 19:38 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: if you look at mine you see from line 5.. that's where the kernel sees the usb stick.. then it checks all kinds of stuff and in the end it mounts it so I can access it | 19:38 |
| ghoulmann | thune3: thank you for taking the tine. I'm not much of a tech reader, but I think this gives an anwer? am I right?? | 19:38 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: this might sound like a weird question.. but does the usb port work at all? or you said it worked if you restarted? | 19:38 |
| iktomi | ActionParsnip: nah. i'm half guessing that's the issue, but i don't remember the standard drivers causing this much trouble even just moving windows around | 19:38 |
| ActionParsnip | iktomi: what is the output of: lspci | grep -i vga | 19:39 |
| SimonP86 | hello, I have a clean install of Ubuntu that I just downloaded . I am able to run the GNU C compiler from the terminal using the gcc command, but when I try to run the GNU C++ compiler using the g++ command it doesn't work | 19:39 |
| removemefromhere | Slart, it does work, if i have themory sitck connectend before booting, it odes work | 19:39 |
| SimonP86 | does Ubuntu not come packaged with the GNU C++ compiler? | 19:39 |
| iktomi | ActionParsnip: yeah i'm about to try installing the radeon driver | 19:39 |
| maco | SimonP86: thats the gcc package | 19:40 |
| rww | SimonP86: install the "build-essential" package if you haven't already | 19:40 |
| Slart | SimonP86: try running "sudo apt-get install build-essential"... then try again | 19:40 |
| SimonP86: ther is a c++ compiler in Ubuntu? | 19:40 | |
| maco | SimonP86: build-essential is the package to pull in all the stuff for compilng | 19:40 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: hmm.. what kind of computer is this? | 19:40 |
| removemefromhere | Slart, IBM, Pentium IV | 19:40 |
| removemefromhere | Slart, what exactly are you asking me? | 19:40 |
| thune3 | ghoulmann: i'm not exactly sure what your use-case is, the add-on may be something to try. It's just a suggestion. | 19:41 |
| Xpistos | ActionParsnip: The problem is the root partion for sure. Can I reinstall /boot and /root but not touch home and any other paritions | 19:41 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: wondering if it might be some kind of powersaving feature that ubuntu didn't know how to handle.. | 19:41 |
| ghoulmann | thune3: I'm running a ubuntu foss lab in a high school. | 19:41 |
| b09m24s | can anyone help with a froyo problem | 19:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Xpistos: sure, i'd go with the fstab edit first, might be fine | 19:41 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: I've never heard of usb ports not working unless they are connected at boot.. | 19:41 |
| n-iCe | hi, is there any way to make my connection kinda more stable? I'm not moving the pc or even the wireless card and the connections signal keeps changing, any ideas? thanks | 19:42 |
| Pici | b09m24s: This channel is only for Ubuntu support. #android might be more appropriate. | 19:42 |
| Xpistos | ActionParsnip: so change sda2 to like sda7 | 19:42 |
| removemefromhere | slart, me neither, that's kind of an odd problem i don't know how to fix | 19:42 |
| Diverdude | How can i see what kind of processor i am running ? | 19:42 |
| ActionParsnip | Xpistos: no, change the uuid for /dev/sda5 | 19:42 |
| ZykoticK9 | Diverdude, "cat /proc/cpuinfo" | 19:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Diverdude: cat /proc/cpu | 19:43 |
| tensorpudding | I'm curious what part of Eclipse depends on gcj, it'd be nice to remove that dependency so one doesn't have to have two Java's installed | 19:43 |
| SimonP86 | thanks guys, g++ is installed now :) | 19:43 |
| removemefromhere | Slart, thank you for trying to help me | 19:43 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: I've been googling a bit but so far I haven't found anything | 19:44 |
| removemefromhere | Slart, thank you anyway i'm starting to think that is a hardware problem | 19:45 |
| opij | could anyone please tell me why google earth keeps crashing on mysystem? | 19:45 |
| Jason_WT | hello all ... got a question related to serial ports; im looging for a way to log all the serial port data (i.e. what comes from the device and what is sent to the device) ... how can i do this? | 19:45 |
| ChoHag | I'm playing around customising the latest Ubuntu, and I can't find any setting to stop opening all applications (except chrome for some reason) maximised. | 19:45 |
| Slart | removemefromhere: you're welcome.. I'll let you know if I find anything useful | 19:45 |
| ChoHag | I don't want to start anything maximised. | 19:45 |
| hakzsam_ | Hi there, I have a problem during the installation of rhythmox from the git sources, the error message is here : http://pastebin.com/6tNs0dtr | 19:45 |
| ChoHag | How can I turn it off? | 19:45 |
| kerebrus | [B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B[B | 19:45 |
| Xpistos | ActionParsnip: sda5 doesn't show up in fstab | 19:45 |
| iktomi | okay; how do i figure out if my setup is using the Radeon driver? | 19:46 |
| thune3 | ghoulmann: if you are trying to have a default set of bookmarks, you might be able to clone a ~/.mozilla/firefox/?????.default/bookmarks.html across the different accounts. | 19:46 |
| kerebrus | Ok sorry about the random letters irc freaked out | 19:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Xpistos: yes but the root partition is defined as a UUID which you said doesnt show up in the output of: sudo blkid | 19:46 |
| kerebrus | Anyone know of a terminal based port monitor/packet monitor? | 19:46 |
| songer | hello | 19:46 |
| ActionParsnip | ChoHag: you can use devilspie to manage windows as they open | 19:46 |
| ZykoticK9 | ChoHag, applications should remember if they where maximized or not. open nautilus, make it not full screen - then close it. When you reopen nautilus it "should" not be fullscreen. | 19:47 |
| oCean_ | kerebrus: tcpdump maybe? | 19:47 |
| ActionParsnip | iktomi: sudo lshw -C display may tell you | 19:47 |
| Xpistos | ActionParsnip: sda5 doesn't show up but the UUID for the / parition does | 19:47 |
| graffy | serious help please | 19:47 |
| graffy | I think my IP has been put on a major blacklist | 19:47 |
| graffy | how can i know for sure? | 19:47 |
| oCean_ | graffy: what does that have to do with ubuntu? | 19:48 |
| thune3 | ghoulmann: or export a set of bookmarks and have all users import them | 19:48 |
| graffy | I get HTTP connection refused (102) | 19:48 |
| kerebrus | graffy you really cant, why do you think you have been? | 19:48 |
| graffy | and i cant nslookup or ping | 19:48 |
| bazhang | graffy, contact your isp, that is not an ubuntu issue | 19:48 |
| graffy | well i have been doing some web crawling | 19:48 |
| spak | Ciao a tutti | 19:48 |
| songer | my pci wireless does not recoconinize lucid any more | 19:48 |
| bazhang | !it | spak | 19:48 |
| kerebrus | graffy rofl what kind of web crawling ... | 19:48 |
| ubottu | spak: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (per entrare, scrivi « /join #ubuntu-it » senza virgolette) | 19:48 |
| graffy | web graph researcfh | 19:49 |
| songer | is g 520 | 19:49 |
| iktomi | ActionParsnip: it looks like it is using the radeon driver. is this driver supposed to perform poorly or what? when i tried running tuxracer i was getting about 0.5 FPS on a Radeon X800 card | 19:49 |
| kerebrus | graffy that shouldnt get you blacklisted ... | 19:49 |
| graffy | then i think its an OS thing | 19:49 |
| oCean_ | graffy: your issue is not ontopic here | 19:49 |
| graffy | for example i can DCHP for a public IP | 19:49 |
| graffy | im doing this on a class A network... | 19:49 |
| graffy | and i still have the problem | 19:50 |
| graffy | thought maybe you could help me troubleshoot | 19:50 |
| graffy | are there any global proxy settings in ubuntu? | 19:50 |
| Milp_main | My ubuntu shows weird named wifi networks that dont exist and it cant connect to ad hoc networks, what is going wrong? | 19:50 |
| oCean_ | graffy: you come in asking if you are blacklisted, and now it is an ubuntu issue? | 19:51 |
| ssuuddoo | ok | 19:51 |
| graffy | no I mean i can change my public IP | 19:51 |
| cbronson | graffy: no. | 19:51 |
| graffy | I am onl the local network of an isp | 19:51 |
| oCean_ | graffy: contact your isp | 19:51 |
| ActionParsnip | iktomi: yes, the chip isnt supported by the proprietary driver | 19:51 |
| graffy | I AM MY ISP | 19:51 |
| opij | could anyone please tell me why google earth keeps crashing on mysystem? | 19:51 |
| graffy | i can change my public IP | 19:51 |
| graffy | and its still blocked | 19:51 |
| graffy | i guess i started with the wrong phrase | 19:52 |
| cbronson | graffy: you have to use one of the ones that was assigned in your block | 19:52 |
| bazhang | !ot | graffy | 19:52 |
| ubottu | graffy: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 19:52 |
| c3l | graffy: you own an isp? | 19:52 |
| ChoHag | ZykoticK9: They don't. Everything starts maximised whatever I do. | 19:52 |
| ssuuddoo | I had a ubu question | 19:52 |
| ssuuddoo | :D | 19:52 |
| ssuuddoo | if i would like to add a new keyboard layout 2 ubuntu, where should I do it? | 19:52 |
| graffy | I'm a network admin at a university that owns a class A block... | 19:52 |
| ssuuddoo | i know how 2 change it, I would just like this layout 2 be available from the box | 19:52 |
| iktomi | ActionParsnip: so it's normal for the radeon driver to perform poorly? | 19:52 |
| oCean_ | graffy: have you tried other OS? | 19:53 |
| ChoHag | opij: Did you sacrifice the goat with the black knife or the white? | 19:53 |
| ActionParsnip | iktomi: depends on your config | 19:53 |
| ActionParsnip | iktomi: you can use an xorg.conf file to maybe specify better options for your chip | 19:53 |
| graffy | yeah on Win 7 I can access the sites | 19:53 |
| ChoHag | Were you turning widdershins while doing the chant at the time? | 19:53 |
| graffy | its not an IP problem | 19:53 |
| graffy | this is a software problem | 19:53 |
| oCean_ | graffy: what does lsb_release -a output? | 19:53 |
| graffy | sorry for ever mentioning that | 19:53 |
| cbronson | there are global proxy settings in ubuntu | 19:53 |
| ActionParsnip | graffy: is it related to ubuntu? | 19:53 |
| opij | could anyone please tell me why google earth keeps crashing on mysystem? | 19:53 |
| bazhang | ChoHag, thats not helpful | 19:53 |
| ActionParsnip | opij: run it in a terminal, the output may be useful | 19:54 |
| Slart | opij: run it from a terminal and tell us what is says when it crashes | 19:54 |
| cbronson | system -> preferences -> network proxy (in gnome) | 19:54 |
| maco | opij: theres a bug in the latest version | 19:54 |
| maco | opij: rever to 5.1 i think | 19:54 |
| ChoHag | bazhang: Nor is "Please tell me why foo is crashing on my system". | 19:54 |
| graffy | No LSB modules are available. | 19:54 |

| kballash | now how do i change my name lol | 19:55 |
| oCean_ | graffy: when on internet, you don't go through proxy? So, if you change your ip, browsing to whatismyip.com shows the actual ip? | 19:55 |
| songer | my my pci wireless does not recogninize eny more lucid | 19:56 |
| songer | is g 520 | 19:56 |
| graffy | yep not on proxy | 19:56 |
| aeon-ltd | kballash: /nick | 19:56 |
| graffy | its so odd | 19:56 |
| graffy | some sites work | 19:56 |
| ChoHag | I had to install Ubuntu using pxe, not the live CD (don't ask). Is there a list of packages which are installed by default? | 19:56 |
| aeon-ltd | kballash: soz wrong context | 19:56 |
| maco | opij: is it this? https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/googleearth-package/+bug/595887 | 19:56 |
| ChoHag | ubuntu-desktop seems to be somewhat lacking on its own. | 19:57 |
| graffy | but sites like newegg.com, amazon.com, microcenter.com will refuse on all ports | 19:57 |
| ghoulmann | thune3: that'll work. thanks. | 19:57 |
| oCean_ | graffy: and there's no squid running locally? Also tried different browsers? | 19:57 |
| vipinb | ActionParsnip: This is pulseaudio mxier applet. I want to install mixer applet which is coming with gnome applet package... | 19:57 |
| ActionParsnip | vipinb: i just websearched that out, maybe there is a ppa for it | 19:58 |
| c3l | how do I see the sticky bit or whats it called when listing, it doesnt always show in the permission field (with ls -l) how do I know the exact permissions? | 19:58 |

| graffy | all browsers and protocols seem to be refused | 19:59 |
| guntbert | !enter | graffy | 19:59 |
| ubottu | graffy: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 19:59 |
| oCean_ | c3l: ls -l should show, but there's also 'stat filename' | 19:59 |
| oCean_ | graffy: that's weird indeed. Especially when you say win7 has no issues. | 20:00 |
| natesm | I have just installed maverick a3 and my username does not appear in gdm (no usernames appear), but my user/pw works fine, is there a way to enable username/password box like it used to be? can't find it in gconf and I have no idea where ubuntu hides gdm.conf | 20:00 |
| guntbert | and, graffy if you talk to a person please put their nick at the beginning of your sentence to avoid confusion | 20:00 |

| tsolox | is it possible to put 4 user gmail accounts inside one .fetchmailrc file, and later manually and selectively download email of just one user. Like, "fetchmail -u john" ??? | 20:01 |
| vipinb | ActionParsnip: But is it part of Ubuntu 10.04 Build??. Because i'm not able to find its binary in /usr/lib/gnome-applets folder | 20:01 |
| graffy | oCean_: yeah I guess I can set my public IP to the one Windows pulls from DHCP | 20:01 |
| c3l | oCean_: I was trying it and setting first chmod 700 foo then cmod o+t the T is shown with ls -l, but then if I set chmod 707 the T is not visible, but the folder still has strange color when listing it | 20:01 |
| oCean_ | graffy: would be good to try | 20:01 |
| c3l | oCean_: but the stat command was nice, thanks | 20:02 |
| graffy | oCean_: ill try that | 20:02 |

| jed_ | Ubuntu rules! | 20:22 |
| ZykoticK9 | Grub issue dual booting Lucid and Maverick. Maverick's grub was installed 2nd and is thus "in control". For example removing kernels from Lucid does not remove the entries from Grub (even after restarting AND running update-grub2 then restarting again from inside Lucid fails to update), BUT running the grub update from inside Maverick updates both installs correctly. I would prefer Lucid to control Grub IF it's an easy fix! | 20:22 |

| bazhang | cliff, what is the issue; please clarify | 20:39 |
| guntbert | joona: usually you must tell your laptop hardware to use the VGA out (it may be some Fn combination) | 20:39 |

| bazhang | kestas, as a one step upgrade? that version is end of life; at this point backing up and installing fresh would be way easier | 20:40 |
| guntbert | joona: sorry, no idea except pressing Fn+F5 repeatedly (its a round robin thing) | 20:41 |

| kballash | so i heard linux is pretty virus free should i still purchase a antivirus/spyware/malware software? | 20:41 |

| ubuntu__ | this will sound weird but i need a copious amount of help, my computer won't boot anymore and just goes to grub-rescue :s | 22:11 |
| rww | haresh: run the commands "lsb_release -a" and "apt-cache policy" in the terminal, copy to http://paste.ubuntu.com/, copy the address of the page it creates here. | 22:11 |
| Jordan_U | SH-Chris: You're welcome. | 22:11 |

| rallias | Hi. I have a question. I have 3 major users I use on my computer, and for certain reasons, I wish to have one of the users not show up on the login screen. How would I go about hiding this user from the login screen? | 22:11 |
| oCean_ | ikonia: www.w3.org = .45 and I can get the site just fine. The nameservers have other ips indeed. | 22:11 |
| === ubuntu__ is now known as kiiru | ||
| ikonia | oCean_: how do you know your hitting .45 ? | 22:11 |
| haresh | the problem is i dont have any firefox or anythign in to surf the net and when i try installing it will not install | 22:11 |
| Humle | is there any way to see the network traffic on a network interface after a reboot? | 22:12 |
| Humle | i mean, the ifconfig TX/RX details | 22:12 |
| ikonia | Humle: counters are cleared on reboots | 22:12 |
| haresh | rww, the problem is i dont have any firefox or anythign in to surf the net and when i try installing it will not install | 22:12 |
| pepee | haresh, apt-cache search firefox | 22:12 |
| sassinoogi | Jordan_U: I am sure you remember me from the other day when I was attempting to fix my printer--my chat room etiquette had much to desire--sorry; I was desperate! :) can you help me? | 22:12 |
| SH-Chris | xangua: Well, i tried teh drivers but seems i have a slightly older one installed | 22:12 |
| rallias | haresh: then install an alternate web browser. | 22:13 |
| oCean_ | ikonia: you're right, I did not know. However, browsing to the ip (.45) results in "forbidden due to abuse" | 22:13 |
| matrix | i need good | 22:13 |
| Humle | ikonia, ah, u see, i pay per MB on mobile broadband | 22:13 |
| matrix | sql manager ide | 22:13 |
| matrix | :( | 22:13 |
| haresh | rallias, like | 22:13 |
| graffy | oCean_ikonia: can you take a look at my route? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/4z7qe6JB | 22:13 |
| Humle | some kind of tracker would be nice | 22:13 |
| ikonia | graffy: it's not routing | 22:13 |
| SH-Chris | xangua: i couldnt get my screen to expand to 1300x700 so i thought maybe going to nvidia might have helped :P | 22:13 |
| xangua | haresh: the problem is that you mixed repositories, that's what i understando; don¿ | 22:13 |
| ikonia | graffy: I think there is a stale dns entry for .45 | 22:13 |
| rallias | haresh: chromium (google chrome), konquerer | 22:13 |
| SH-Chris | wtf.. Ikonia got opped and deoped.. | 22:14 |
| graffy | ikonia: its many sites, newegg.com, microcenter.com, amazon.com | 22:14 |

| SH-Chris | Oh, sorry | 22:14 |
| matrix | what s up ? | 22:14 |
| rallias | Can someone help me? I have a user existing on my user that I don't want showing at the login prompt. How do I do this? | 22:14 |

| haresh | ok can after that what should i do | 22:14 |
| ikonia | matrix: you have been told about the mysql tools | 22:14 |
| pepee | sorry, but, I think DNS problems is OT here | 22:14 |
| ikonia | matrix: please stop asking the same question | 22:14 |
| ikonia | pepee: it's not offtopic, he's resolving an issue with his ubuntu machine | 22:15 |
| pepee | ikonia, same applies to gentoo, debian, mandriva... | 22:15 |
| ikonia | pepee: we don't know it's a dns issue, so it's fine | 22:15 |
| pepee | /j #linux ? | 22:15 |
| Jordan_U | sassinoogi: Can you pastebin the output of "dmesg" immediately after plugging in the printer? | 22:15 |
| pepee | ah ok, sorry | 22:15 |
| haresh | but after installing i dont see it anywhere | 22:15 |
| pepee | haresh, alt+f2, type "firefox" | 22:16 |
| ikonia | graffy: work through one site at a time, get w3.org working first, that one I think is a dns cache issue | 22:16 |
| sassinoogi | Jordan_U: there was no message :( Should I pick a different USB until it appears? | 22:16 |
| pepee | sassinoogi, please don't repeat, we can read | 22:16 |
| ikonia | oCean_: Slart comments, agree/disagree ? | 22:16 |
| haresh | i install the google chroum | 22:16 |
| Jordan_U | sassinoogi: You can try that. Do other USB devices work? | 22:17 |
| graffy | I'm on opendns now | 22:17 |
| Slart | rallias: some unconfirmed results from google suggests that if you use user id's below 1000 they won't show up in the user list | 22:17 |
| chr0n0 | meh, the fool who owned this thing formatted the backup partition and put music on it. :-/ | 22:17 |
| Humle | is there a way to launch a script after I shut down from "Shut Down" menu icon | 22:17 |
| pepee | sassinoogi, someone will help you if he can | 22:17 |
| sassinoogi | yes--the printer did until just recently | 22:17 |
| oCean_ | ikonia: the weird thing is, he has win7 box which works just fine (even after switching ips between ubuntu and the win7) | 22:17 |
| rallias | Slart: tyvm | 22:17 |
| ikonia | oCean_: I'm wondering if the ubuntu box has cached the bad ip though | 22:17 |
| Slart | ikonia: humm.. haven't really been following the discussion.. | 22:17 |
| haresh | pepee, cant bro please help | 22:18 |
| Jordan_U | ikonia: Ubuntu doesn't do DNS caching by default. | 22:18 |
| graffy | ikonia: the past few days I've been running a crawl that ignores robots.txt | 22:18 |
| ikonia | Jordan_U: I don't know what his setup is, but it's all I have to explain his issue | 22:18 |
| graffy | but if they blacklisted me its based on some kind of OS signature.... | 22:18 |
| sassinoogi | Jordon_U: sorry--yes, the printer worked until just recently. IDK what exactly happened, but after I made some updates, it no longer would communicate with my PC | 22:18 |
| pepee | haresh, ok. what version are you using? lucid= | 22:18 |
| haresh | chromium is already the newest version. | 22:18 |
| ikonia | graffy: they haven't blacklisted you, the host has been shut down | 22:18 |
| graffy | I feel like a backbone host blacklisted my OS | 22:18 |
| haresh | how do i cehck that | 22:18 |
| haresh | pepee, how do i check that | 22:18 |
| ikonia | graffy: then I wouldn't be able to get to it ? | 22:19 |
| Jordan_U | sassinoogi: But to other USB devices work *currently*? | 22:19 |
| graffy | ikonia: lets check my newegg.com record then | 22:19 |
| Jordan_U | s/to/do/ | 22:19 |
| ikonia | I'm using ubuntu too, MANY people would be complaining if that was the case | 22:19 |
| sassinoogi | yes | 22:19 |
| haresh | pepee, Distributor ID:Ubuntu | 22:19 |
| haresh | Description:Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS | 22:19 |
| haresh | Release:10.04 | 22:19 |
| haresh | Codename:lucid | 22:19 |
| FloodBot1 | haresh: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 22:19 |
| sassinoogi | Jordan_U: yes | 22:19 |
| graffy | ikonia: and i don't know if you know but chrome gives me "102 Unknown Error" | 22:19 |
| graffy | not unreachable name or what is says in a dns case | 22:19 |
| pepee | haresh, did you install firefox? | 22:20 |
| ikonia | graffy: it's not unreachable, the host is still running a webserver, but if you read the message on the web server, it's been taken out of action | 22:20 |
| haresh | pepee, i cant install firefox i have a files to install | 22:20 |
| Jordan_U | sassinoogi: You can try printing from a LiveCD, if the printer worked previously but doesn't work from a LiveCD then it's likely an issue with the printer itself. | 22:20 |
| pepee | haresh, where are you from? india? | 22:20 |
| haresh | pepee, firefox: Depends: libstartup-notification0 (>= 0.10) but it is not going to be installed | 22:20 |
| haresh | singapore | 22:20 |
| haresh | pepee, singapore | 22:21 |
| mksexe | can somebody help me with extracting some files from a rar archive | 22:21 |
| pepee | ok | 22:21 |
| sassinoogi | Jordan_U: what exactly do you mean by a LiveCD? Print info from a disk? | 22:21 |
| Jordan_U | !rar | mksexe | 22:21 |
| ubottu | mksexe: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 22:21 |
| pepee | mksexe, install rar and unrar packages | 22:21 |
| infid | where does ubuntu keep it's sound files, like the equivalent of windows chimes, etc | 22:21 |
| oCean_ | graffy: I'm kind of lost with this issue. :( | 22:21 |
| graffy | ikonia: I'm telling you it's not a cache issue. I'm on OpenDNS servers right now. My newegg record is 216.52.208.187. Check that... | 22:21 |
| Jordan_U | sassinoogi: A LiveCD is a CD containing a full bootable GNU/Linux system, like the Ubuntu install CD. | 22:21 |
| pepee | haresh, /j #ubuntu-sg | 22:22 |
| mksexe | I have installed unrar-free package | 22:22 |
| JoshuaL | infid, /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/ | 22:22 |
| rezolute | is there a quickpar equivalent for linux that would allow me to just click on pars and repair like I do in windows? | 22:22 |
| haresh | i am there | 22:22 |
| Jordan_U | sassinoogi: Booting from a LiveCD is a good way to get back to a default configuration (at least temporarily). | 22:22 |
| infid | thanksj oCean_ | 22:22 |
| infid | JoshuaL: | 22:22 |
| pepee | haresh, try installing that package: libstartup-notification0 | 22:22 |
| sassinoogi | Jordan_U: I don't know where my original CD is; do you think that you could assist me in having the PC recognize the printer since it has been re-installed? | 22:22 |
| ikonia | graffy: what happens when you try to get to the newegg site | 22:22 |
| haresh | yeah thanks i am doing in | 22:22 |
| JoshuaL | infid, np | 22:22 |
| mksexe | but when I try to extract a picture from a archive i get an error | 22:23 |
| graffy | ikonia: all browsers give some sort of error and return nothing. I just installed winxp in a virtualbox, same thing | 22:23 |
| infid | JoshuaL: what command line program can play the sound file, eg just play the .ogg file, preferably without having a gui | 22:23 |
| pepee | mksexe, you can use winrar with wine | 22:23 |
| graffy | ikonia: i think somewhere deep my network procs got screwed up | 22:23 |
| thune3 | rallias: i'm going to test another possible solution for your issue, brb | 22:24 |
| Trashi | hi. i have a further fail2ban question. i cannot use iptables (vserver) so i try to use deny.hosts support. its all fine and fail2ban is writing my ip after a couple of tries into the hosts.deny, but after, apache2 lets me anyway to receive my website? whats the problem with this? for what could i look for? | 22:24 |
| ikonia | graffy: sorry, don't buy that, networking is eithe up/down for things like you route to the internet, unless you have some personal routing you've put int | 22:24 |
| ikonia | int | 22:24 |
| deww | infid: ogg123 | 22:24 |
| ikonia | in | 22:24 |
| Slart | graffy: what happens if you try "wget www.newegg.com" in a terminal? | 22:24 |
| haresh | how to slove this when i do a update using the update manager i get cannot upgrade a upgrade from lucid to handy is not supported please help me | 22:24 |
| JoshuaL | infid, by default that is not possible. maybe MPD can help you | 22:24 |
| ikonia | Trashi: apache doesn't use hosts.allow/deny | 22:24 |
| JoshuaL | infid, mpd is a music player deamon | 22:24 |
| rallias | thune3: and that is? | 22:25 |
| graffy | Slart: wget gives connection refused | 22:25 |
| Jordan_U | haresh: "upgrade from lucid to handy" doesn't make any sense. Can you please rephrase what exactly you're trying to do? | 22:25 |
| Trashi | ikonia: but why fail2ban provides an "apache auth filter" ? | 22:25 |
| infid | deww: apt-get says ogg123 is unavailable | 22:25 |
| pepee | haresh, please, don't repeat... also, you got an answer for that question | 22:25 |
| haresh | i am trying to update using the update manager | 22:25 |
| Slart | graffy: and "wget 204.14.213.185" gives you the same result? | 22:25 |
| JEUS | how can i fix problem with eth0 network . is disable | 22:26 |
| ilovefairuz | haresh: better do a clean install | 22:26 |
| Jordan_U | haresh: From which version of Ubuntu? | 22:26 |
| mksexe | I will try with wine than | 22:26 |
| ikonia | Trashi: that's for iptables | 22:26 |
| mksexe | Tanks for your help | 22:26 |
| pepee | haresh, lucid is the latest version | 22:26 |
| ikonia | Trashi: and it also depends how your apache application is built | 22:26 |
| haresh | i can i have the new cd but the provblem is when i am trying to install it says it cant find my cdrom drive it ask me to look for it | 22:26 |
| deww | infid: then try mpd as suggested by JoshuaL :) | 22:26 |
| JEUS | ping | 22:27 |
| Trashi | ikonia: ah ok ... i did find a tutorial about tcp wrapper & apache2 .. first, i will take a look for this ... thank u ;) | 22:27 |

| ubottu | sassinoogi: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers, and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. | 22:27 |
| Slart | graffy: one way to find out if it's your computer or the network would be to try a live cd.. see if you have the same problems there | 22:27 |
| Jordan_U | haresh: From which version of Ubuntu? | 22:27 |
| deww | infid: what about vorbis-tools ? | 22:27 |
| infid | deww: i liked the sound of ogg123 though since i used to use mpg123 or whatever, or was it 321. anyway vlc does the trick | 22:27 |
| haresh | i am on 10.4 | 22:28 |

| === pure_hater is now known as pure_hate | ||
| pepee | chr0n0, yeah, but no one should install it :) | 22:28 |
| SH-Chris | Lucid seems to have a bit of problems lately... | 22:28 |
| infid | deww: thanks | 22:28 |
| ikonia | graffy: have you tried something simple like a reboot, clear your ram and start again ? | 22:28 |
| SH-Chris | DOesnt seem as stable as its lable as | 22:28 |
| SH-Chris | labled* | 22:28 |
| graffy | ikonia: i have rebooted a few times. checked my small win7 partition | 22:29 |
| chr0n0 | lol ya | 22:29 |
| bytesaber | any reason a grub1 bootloader can't boot current ubuntu? | 22:29 |
| graffy | can you ping newegg? | 22:29 |
| graffy | i cant ping it in windows? | 22:29 |
| ikonia | ah yes, you did say | 22:29 |
| ikonia | bytesaber: nope | 22:29 |
| JEUS | ikonia, i have this problem with ubuntu 10.4 but not solved after do command http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-network-manager-disabled-problem-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid.html | 22:29 |
| ikonia | graffy: their firewall blocks ping | 22:29 |
| chr0n0 | lucid runs great on my box :) loving it | 22:29 |
| ikonia | JEUS: I'm not interested in helping you at this time, I'm looking at other things | 22:29 |
| ilovefairuz | bytesaber: who said it can't? | 22:29 |
| SH-Chris | JEUS: Dont repeat stuff | 22:29 |
| oCean_ | graffy: no ping reply, have you tried browsing to 216.52.208.185 ? | 22:29 |
| graffy | oCean_: yes its newegg's homepage with no images | 22:29 |
| bytesaber | ilovefairuz, no one. just messing with bootloaders | 22:29 |
| tripleb-mirc | How to set this up question: I have windows on one hard drive. I have another hard drive and will install ubuntu on it. What do I have to do to get grub to line up to give me choices to boot on windows or not. I want to have the windows drive not on the computer from time to time. I intend the ubuntu drive to be the Master drive. | 22:30 |
| oCean_ | graffy: ok, so nameserver issue after all? | 22:30 |
| pepee | graffy, can you browse newegg from windows? | 22:30 |
| pettter | join ubuntu-se | 22:30 |
| bytesaber | ilovefairuz, trying to learn how to use grub2 | 22:30 |
| RWolf | Hi, I've installed 10.04 on my USB flash drive instead of HDD, is it ok? will the drive wear off quickly? | 22:30 |
| ikonia | oCean_: it does look that way | 22:30 |
| oCean_ | graffy: since the images are probably loaded by location by name | 22:30 |
| oCean_ | ikonia: Indeed | 22:30 |
| JEUS | this chanel for help or for pussy | 22:30 |
| SH-Chris | tripleb-mirc: Grub must be installed on teh master drive, liek windows if you boot taht first. | 22:30 |
| ilovefairuz | !grub2 | bytesaber | 22:30 |
| ubottu | bytesaber: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Ubuntu 9.10. For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 22:30 |
| graffy | oCean_: sorry i was responding to your last question. 216.52.208.185 produces no response and an error. I can browse to newegg in windows, but not from a windows VM on this lucid | 22:31 |
| ikonia | graffy: what's the error | 22:31 |
| chr0n0 | RWolf: usb flash is cheap anyhow, if it dies you can justify getting a bigger one | 22:31 |
| bytesaber | thanks ilovefairuz | 22:31 |
| JEUS | hi | 22:31 |
| graffy | ikonia: this is a Iron/Chrome error code, "Error 102 (net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED): Unknown error.". usually caused by proxy but im not behind a proxy | 22:32 |
| RWolf | chr0n0: there's a risk of losing data | 22:32 |
| Jordan_U | tripleb-mirc: The boot menu will be setup automatically but you should make sure during install that grub isn't being installed to the windows drive (otherwise you won't be able to boot anything without the windows drive in). | 22:32 |
| pepee | graffy, what about installing a local DNS cache server? | 22:32 |
| ilovefairuz | tripleb-mirc: install grub on that drive that you'll be keeping all at the time | 22:32 |
| tripleb-mirc | SH-Chris: so I want to have ubuntu be the master drive. But mostly I want windows to just be an option. | 22:32 |
| chr0n0 | true | 22:32 |
| ikonia | graffy: telnet to 216.52.208.187 80 please | 22:32 |
| ikonia | graffy: does it get a connection | 22:32 |
| pepee | graffy, like dnsmasq or pdnsd | 22:32 |
| SH-Chris | tripleb-mirc: Not sure, i did it with ubuntu partitioned on my 500GB hdd | 22:33 |
| graffy | ikonia: connection refused | 22:33 |
| ikonia | graffy: that suggests something is blocking you | 22:33 |
| graffy | pepee: installed them about an hour ago | 22:33 |
| sassinoogi | jordan_U: (if I make another bad pass, sorry--I am new to Ubuntu!) so after I have reinstalled the driver, I know that I have to go into the terminal to "override the system" and I am not sure what the command(s) is. Do you know what it is that I am talking about or is there another way for the system to get data to transfer to the printer? | 22:33 |
| pepee | ahh | 22:33 |
| Jordan_U | tripleb-mirc: The setting for where grub should be installed is fairly hidden in Ubuntu's installer, you get to it by clicking the button labeled "Advanced" on the last screen of the installer. | 22:33 |
| oCean_ | graffy: are there accesslists on your gateway? | 22:33 |
| Jordan_U | sassinoogi: How did you re-install the driver? | 22:34 |
| pepee | graffy, do you have a firewall in the machine? modified your /etc/hosts or something? | 22:34 |
| graffy | oCean_ i dont have control of them, and the guy went home... | 22:34 |
| sassinoogi | Jordan_U: went directly to Lexmark, downloaded the driver to my desktop, extracted the file, then ran it | 22:35 |
| oCean_ | graffy: you default to gw10-ints.noc.d, there could be an accesslist. Is your ubuntu gw same as on win? | 22:35 |
| ilovefairuz | tripleb-mirc: the ubuntu installer will detect windows if the drive is present during installation and add an option to boot it, even if the drive is not present you can add an option later to boot windows from the "secondary" drive | 22:35 |
| Jordan_U | sassinoogi: Did your printer not work out of the box with Ubuntu? | 22:35 |
| tiina | Hi anyone here who could help me with my mp3 files? | 22:35 |
| pepee | !ask | tiina | 22:35 |
| ubottu | tiina: 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. :-) | 22:35 |
| ilovefairuz | !details | tiina | 22:35 |
| ubottu | tiina: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 22:35 |
| tripleb-mirc | Jordan_U, SH-Chris: So I am going to install ubuntu on this new (SATA) drive. I have windows installed on another drive (I am using it now.) I want windows to appear in the grub options. Do I set that up at install time or later or do I have a choice? (with xchat I get lines with "mynick" in them highlighted. I wish I could get that with mirc - which I am using now.) | 22:35 |
| harley_ | any one know some plug to aqalug player | 22:36 |
| harley_ | any one know some plug to aqalug player? | 22:36 |
| graffy | oCean_: yes at least the same ip, gw10-ints.noc.d is a sub domain yeah? | 22:36 |
| JEUS | of 1526 petson is not anybody to help me | 22:36 |
| tiina | i have denver mp3 and i have downloaded mp3 files via frostwire and cannot get them to my mp3 player denver??? | 22:36 |
| sassinoogi | Jordan_U: no; I had to go through a series of steps and all was well; I updated to 9.10 and that is when the real issues began; I don't know how to downgrade, or I would, but either way--I wanted to write down what steps I took the last time so that I don't have to bug my fellow ubuntu-ers about how to do it again | 22:36 |
| SH-Chris | tripleb-mirc: In teh end of teh install you ahev teh option to install grub but only if it detects another boot loader | 22:36 |
| ilovefairuz | tripleb-mirc: the installer will add the option automatically | 22:37 |
| tiina | i have denver mp3 and i have downloaded mp3 files via frostwire and cannot get them to my mp3 player denver??? | 22:37 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: do you see the music player when you plug it to usb? | 22:37 |
| JEUS | ping : i have this problem but not solvet after do it http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-network-manager-disabled-problem-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid.html | 22:37 |
| RWolf | any ideas how to reduce disk writes while 10.04 running to save the Flash drive? for example, are there processes that are known to write to disk in a timely manner? or, maybe, /tmp on a RAM disk will help? | 22:37 |
| tiina | yes | 22:37 |
| tiina | rythmbox | 22:37 |
| ikonia | JEUS: stop with the "ping" | 22:37 |
| tripleb-mirc | ilovefairuz ah. OK I'll have it present at install. ((another question: while ubuntu installs, how long will it take for a 1T drive (new) and will I be locked out from using the computer for that time frame?)) | 22:37 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: no, on the desktop, can you see an icon for it? | 22:38 |
| Slart | RWolf: I would put tmp on a ramdisk to start with.. | 22:38 |
| chr0n0 | sassinoogi: when I upgraded to 9.10 I had a bunch of problems that I could not remedy at all. fortunately I keep my /home on another disk entirely. makes for easy migration | 22:38 |
| JEUS | what do :/ ikonia | 22:38 |
| tiina | only usb0 like an harddisk | 22:38 |
| cjdevlin | i am running ubuntu 8.04 and i a program i am installing needs pygtk 2.16.0 is there a simple way to install/upgrade? | 22:38 |
| NCS_One | hi | 22:38 |
| oCean_ | graffy: sorry, I think I'm out of options. You should check accesslists when your collegue returns. | 22:38 |
| chr0n0 | sassinoogi: i also tried to downgrade, which cause further instability | 22:38 |
| pepee | JEUS, paste the output of those commands in pastebin, please | 22:38 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: when you click on the icon on the desktop, doesn't it show the files inside the player? | 22:38 |
| sassinoogi | *ugh!* | 22:38 |
| Slart | RWolf: perhaps even try to limit logging.. but I would only do that once everything is working | 22:39 |
| tiina | only usb0 like an harddisk | 22:39 |
| sassinoogi | chr0n0: did anyone make suggestions to you? | 22:39 |
| tiina | olivefairuz | 22:39 |
| ilovefairuz | !screenshot | tiina | 22:39 |
| ubottu | tiina: Screenshots can be made with the [PrtScr] button. Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://tinyurl.com/imagebin and post a link to it. | 22:39 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: take a screen shot of it | 22:39 |
| graffy | oCean_: what's a reliable way to clear my dnscache? now 204.14.213.185 looks like a full newegg.com | 22:39 |
| tiina | ok | 22:39 |
| JEUS | i use this command i have this problem but not solvet after do it http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-network-manager-disabled-problem-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid.html | 22:40 |
| NCS_One | whhen I try to seen flash videos on browser firefox or chromium it is slow, lags. What can I do to fix it ? | 22:40 |
| pepee | JEUS, where are you from? | 22:40 |
| pepee | ... | 22:40 |
| hellokit1y | Howdy. =) | 22:40 |
| JEUS | im from earth | 22:40 |
| RWolf | Slart: how do I turn the logging off? anyways, I can switch them again when needed | 22:40 |
| ikonia | pepee: why are you asking people where they are from ? | 22:40 |
| pepee | JEUS, paste the output of those commands in pastebin, please | 22:40 |
| ikonia | JEUS: stop with the smart answers | 22:40 |
| ikonia | pepee: what commands ? | 22:40 |
| pradeep | hi everyone | 22:40 |
| graffy | oCean_: Yeah! if I rewrite URIs with 204.14.213.185 i can browse newegg | 22:41 |
| tiina | /home/tiina/Skrivbord/Skärmbild.png | 22:41 |
| hellokit1y | Lol. | 22:41 |
| Slart | RWolf: I think there is a config file for logging.. something like /etc/syslog , I think | 22:41 |
| pradeep | hope everyone is good in here | 22:41 |
| chr0n0 | sassinoogi: I don't remember the specifics, sorry. but I know that I found several forums where people had the same problems, I tried the fixes over and over with no luck. Are you having some issue with network manager by chance? | 22:41 |
| oCean_ | graffy: hmm | 22:41 |
| graffy | oCean_: i think i have a bad dnscache | 22:41 |
| sassinoogi | Jordan_U: no; I had to go through a series of steps and all was well; I updated to 9.10 and that is when the real issues began; I don't know how to downgrade, or I would, but either way--I wanted to write down what steps I took the last time so that I don't have to bug my fellow ubuntu-ers about how to do it again | 22:41 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: go to http://imgur.com and upload the image, then paste the address here | 22:41 |
| pepee | ikonia, 1. for telling them to go to the channel of their country, 2. commands from the website he's posting | 22:41 |
| sassinoogi | chr0n0: no, no other issues except this @#*$&@#( printer | 22:41 |
| ikonia | pepee: why don't you find out what the actual problem is | 22:42 |
| JEUS | i work in windows now and linux have problem to connect internet | 22:42 |
| oCean_ | graffy: on ubuntu and win, you use the same dns configuration? (i.e. /etc/resolv.conf) | 22:42 |
| JEUS | ikonia, pepee | 22:42 |
| chr0n0 | sassinoogi: sorry, my attention is divided. man, no ideas :( | 22:42 |
| Slart | RWolf: although that file doesn't exist.. let me look around.. see if I can find it | 22:42 |
| RWolf | Slart: rsyslog.conf? | 22:42 |
| graffy | oCean_: well right now its just OpenDNS's 2NS | 22:42 |
| JEUS | ikonia, pepee not have way to connect to ubuntu | 22:43 |
| graffy | oCean_: but I think i have a bad local cache | 22:43 |
| pepee | ikonia, because most people is new, and I prefer to see what the system says before trying to understand them | 22:43 |
| ikonia | JEUS: as I said before I'm working on other things so chose not to help you | 22:43 |
| JEUS | and can't | 22:43 |
| tiina | http://imgur.com/8jhVT.png | 22:43 |
| graffy | oCean_: where is this in ubuntu? | 22:43 |
| oCean_ | graffy: oh, ok. Your reboots would have cleared those out | 22:43 |
| JEUS | paste to this computer | 22:43 |
| graffy | Can I purge the DNS handler or something? | 22:43 |
| Slart | RWolf: it sounds right.. but I looked at that file and I didn't recognise the things in there.. | 22:43 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: ok good, what happens when you click the usb0? | 22:43 |
| Slart | RWolf: of course, it might have changed since I last looked at it | 22:43 |
| thune3 | rallias: adding a [greeter] section with Exclude=<user> to /etc/gdm/custom.conf is supposed to do that according to http://library.gnome.org/admin/gdm/2.30/configuration.html.en It didn't work for me because these options apparantly aren't availble for gnome 2.28 (i'm on karmic) | 22:44 |
| pepee | JEUS, ahh ok. well, try using sudo with those commands | 22:44 |
| tiina | my filemapp opens | 22:44 |
| JEUS | pepee, ikonia to this to your work ? http://pastebin.com/RA8jn1RS | 22:44 |
| pepee | sudo service network-manager stop; sudo rm /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state; sudo service network-manager start | 22:44 |
| Shark360 | ciao a tutti | 22:44 |
| pepee | JEUS, do that | 22:44 |
| ikonia | JEUS: please stop saying my name | 22:44 |
| Shark360 | hi all | 22:44 |
| Slart | RWolf: ah.. /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf looks better.. | 22:45 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: so keep it open, and open another one with the folder that contains your mp3 files, then select them and right-click, choose copy and go to usb0 and select paste | 22:45 |
| tiina | couldnt do so wrong at the backends of files? | 22:45 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: is there an error ? what does it say ? | 22:46 |
| tiina | I gat that answer when I tried to do as you said before | 22:46 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: is there an error message that shows up when you try to copy? | 22:46 |
| hay | ikonia: being nice to people from other countries wouldn't hurt | 22:46 |
| tiina | like something is wrong I cannot move the musicfiles | 22:46 |
| RWolf | Slart: hmm, so I can redirect the logs to /tmp | 22:46 |
| CppIsWeird | just for a sanity check, i ran diff -rqd /dir1 /dir2, and it didnt report anything, this means that those directories are EXACTLY the same byte for byte, bit for bit, content and structure? | 22:47 |
| sassinoogi | Seriously--anyone (I am in near tears with this!! I am still a newbie!) and I cannot get my printer to print documents or pics. Reinstalled several times with no avail--only need a person to take me through the steps of getting system to re-recognize printer | 22:47 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: write the exact error | 22:47 |
| ikonia | hay: I don't have a problem with people in other countries | 22:47 |
| Slart | RWolf: possibly.. or just disable the loggin altogether | 22:47 |
| somnium | Im looking for something like mumbles, but it seems it hasn't been updated for over a year. Is there a alternative like it for gnome or is it still the best bet? | 22:47 |

| Slart | tripleb-mirc: try joining #test , they have bots and all kinds of stuff to test things | 22:48 |

| ubottu | adub: 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! | 22:48 |
| adub | cool a nice bot | 22:48 |

| adub | yes | 22:48 |
| adub | jesus is always there | 22:49 |
| hay | :-) | 22:49 |
| adub | you just have to ask | 22:49 |
| ilovefairuz | !ot | adub | 22:49 |
| ubottu | adub: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 22:49 |

| tiina | Wrong at doing copy of 08 Rude Boy- Rihanna-,mp3 | 22:49 |
| graffy | oCean_: I cam in this morning to all 12GB of my ram being used and max swap | 22:49 |
| ikonia | tiina: ? | 22:49 |
| pepee | adub, no, jesus is dead, if he existed... lol | 22:49 |
| tiina | yes | 22:49 |
| JEUS | pepee, yes im here | 22:50 |
| adub | guys im having an issue with installing ubuntu | 22:50 |
| graffy | I think something got screwed up | 22:50 |
| hay | tiina: that could be because of rihanna ;-) | 22:50 |
| pepee | JEUS, did that work? | 22:50 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: do you have other files on the player? | 22:50 |
| adub | i am trying to install 10.04 | 22:50 |
| ikonia | pepee: what part of "offtopic" was not clear to you | 22:50 |
| ilovefairuz | !who | tiina | 22:50 |
| ubottu | tiina: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 22:50 |
| adub | and i keep getting this error ---> This particular error is often due to a faulty CD/DVD disk or drive, or a faulty hard disk. It may help to clean the CD/DVD, to burn the CD/DVD at a lower speed, to clean the CD/DVD drive lens (cleaning kits are often available from electronics suppliers), to check whether the hard disk is old and in need of replacement, or to move the system to a cooler environment. | 22:50 |
| graffy | oCean_: mouse was lagging on a Core i7 | 22:50 |
| oCean_ | graffy: that's not ok | 22:50 |
| maco | tiina: maybe because there's a comma in the file name? some formats cant take commas | 22:50 |
| graffy | oCean_: but I shouldn't have to reinstall | 22:50 |
| pepee | ikonia, you are always that serious? | 22:50 |
| adub | its annoying i run fsck and all is well this is the second time i have burned the disk and it errors 36% into the install everytime i have tried 5 different installed | 22:50 |
| adub | installs | 22:51 |
| tiina | and detalied says: wrong at the opening of file"/media/usb/0/08 ...YES in each of files the same message | 22:51 |
| adub | using 10.04 lts installation | 22:51 |
| ikonia | pepee: this channels topic is ubuntu support discussion, not chat, not jokes, ubuntu support, please try to stick to it, more so when you ae told a pevious comment is offtopic | 22:51 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: you can right-click on usb0 and select "format" but that will delete files on the music player so you' | 22:51 |
| maco | adub: did you do the "check disc for errors" thing on boot? because maybe the iso you're burning was a corrupt download | 22:51 |
| lindux | anyone who is able with recovery dead filesystem? | 22:51 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: you'll have to copy them again | 22:51 |
| maco | adub: also possible is that your cd drive is overly sensitive (I have one that wont read more than 100mb into a cd) | 22:51 |
| ilovefairuz | !undelete | lindux | 22:51 |
| ubottu | lindux: Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel | 22:51 |
| JEUS | i try copy output to this computer (ubuntu ----> windows) | 22:52 |
| graffy | oCean_: do you think i got attacked? | 22:52 |
| oCean_ | graffy: agreed. Using 'top' and then sorting on mem and/or swap usage should show you what is hogging the resources | 22:52 |
| tiina | oboy how i shall do that via frostwire? as i did at the first time? | 22:52 |
| ikonia | oCean_: he's rebooted though, so there should be no resource hogs now | 22:52 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: do you have the files on the hard disk in a folder? | 22:52 |
| adub | maco how do i check for errors on boot | 22:52 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: after you format, copy them from that folder | 22:52 |
| maco | adub: i dont know with the new cd. maybe hold down shift? | 22:53 |
| tiina | yes in the rythmbox player in ubuntu | 22:53 |
| graffy | oCean_: it was my crawler running in python. but it has a feature to never go back to visited urls. and i think that behavior leaked to the system??? | 22:53 |
| maco | adub: older versions of ubuntu offered it during boot | 22:53 |
| NCS_One | when I try to seen flash videos on browser firefox or chromium it is slow, lags. What can I do to fix it ? | 22:53 |
| tiina | How I format those? | 22:53 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: no, open the folder that contains them, and copy after you format | 22:53 |
| mint | anyone here running on hardy heroin ubuntu still im curious to hear how stable it is | 22:53 |
| ikonia | mint: it's stable | 22:54 |
| tiina | I dont understand what format means? | 22:54 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: you format the music player by right-click on usb0 and select "format" | 22:54 |
| oCean_ | graffy: from here, I really couldn't tell. Maybe see tomorrow (with several reboots done now) how your system is behaving? | 22:54 |
| === mint is now known as Alazare | ||
| Oer | !hardyheron | 22:54 |
| KE1HA | graffy, just try a top -d 1 and watch what apps / svc's float to the top, you'll see CPU & MEM | 22:54 |
| graffy | oCean_: is there no standard location for the DNS cache? (my hosts file is empty of course, suprised you haven't mentioned it) | 22:54 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: format will delete files from the player and reset permissions | 22:54 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: will probably fix your error | 22:54 |
| Alazare | reason being isadora (mints version) of lucid lynx seems to have some problems one being it wont let me install nvidia's drivers from there site and there at 255.44 atm and the ones in the repo are 195.... | 22:55 |
| ikonia | Alazare: mint is not ubuntu, they have differences | 22:55 |
| tiina | dont understand my player is brand new only anyting inside of it everything are on my computer and I try to download them to my brand new denver mp3 player...but wrong...wrong....cannot do it | 22:55 |
| Alazare | mainly just the software tho ikonia | 22:56 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: right-click on usb0 and select "format" | 22:56 |
| oCean_ | graffy: well, hosts is only for exact matches, not for complete (sub)domains. Regarding local dns cache: I don't think a lot of that happens unless you're running nscd. (I could be wrong here.. ikonia?) | 22:56 |
| Alazare | its ubuntu at its core infact if gdm crashes it says ubuntu is in low res mode | 22:56 |
| tiina | what is format???? | 22:56 |
| ikonia | oCean_: bang on | 22:56 |
| ikonia | Alazare: ok, in that case you can assume it will be the same as mint | 22:56 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: it's probably named different because you use a different language, what's your native language? | 22:57 |
| tiina | no shuch a thing as format | 22:57 |
| tiina | swedish | 22:57 |
| Alazare | so ikonia would you say ubuntu 6 hardy would be extremly stable mainly going to do some nix gaming on it | 22:57 |

| Dr_Willis | Alazare: any old releases would be using older drivers also. so i dont see what you woukld gain. | 22:57 |
| ilovefairuz | tiina: type /join #ubuntu-se | 22:57 |
| tiina | ok thanks | 22:58 |
| ikonia | Alazare: I'd say you will have the same issues you have with mints hardy distro, Hardy is very old and obsoleted | 22:58 |
| Alazare | hmmm...what kernel is hardy ? | 22:58 |
| ikonia | 2.6.24 I think | 22:58 |
| ikonia | maybe 2.6.18 | 22:58 |

| Alazare | the problem im having with nvidia's driver not installing is this nuoveau stuff.... | 22:59 |
| Hoober | i am not trolling | 22:59 |
| ikonia | Hoober: the answer to your question is "no" | 22:59 |
| Alazare | i cant seem to remove it not matter what guide i follow | 22:59 |
| vhugox | ok | 22:59 |
| Hoober | ok well i guess i can google some more | 22:59 |

| ikonia | ok | 22:59 |
| ascheel | Is there a known issue with 'Safely Remove Drive' in relation to SD Cards? I did a safe remove on a card, now new cards I insert don't show up in gnome. | 23:00 |

| faheyn | anyone know where i can get a working vlc for 10.10 | 23:00 |

| ikonia | faheyn: 10.10 is a development release and not supported. Discuss on it is in #ubuntu+1 channel | 23:01 |
| Dr_Willis | ascheel: theres issues with siome laptops and card slot readers where they wont see cards plugged in after the4 system boots. | 23:01 |
| graffy | is 216.52.208.187 a valid newegg IP? | 23:01 |
| IdleOne | faheyn: in the repos and 10.10 in #ubuntu+1 | 23:01 |
| ikonia | ascheel: bus probably hung | 23:01 |
| thune3 | ascheel: i've had that problem "safely remove drive" removes the card reader device altogether! I use "eject" without issue. | 23:01 |
| Dr_Willis | ascheel: what thune3 says makes sence to me also.. Theres somthing more extree about remove, vs eject ive notced also. | 23:01 |
| graffy | getting dhcp.... | 23:01 |
| ascheel | thune3: thanks! I unplugged the card reader, plugged it back in and all is well in the world. Doesn't seem the bus was hung | 23:01 |
| ascheel | Dr_Willis: sounds exactly right in this situation | 23:02 |
| vhugox | I have Ubuntu 9.04, Siragon Laptop, well..., i'm trying to connect my guitar to my laptop, but i don't have any audio. I tried to play with the alsamixer options. | 23:02 |
| ikonia | ascheel: unplugging it will re-scan the bus | 23:02 |
| tripleb-mirc | I have a new 1T drive. I am going to install Ubuntu on it all one partition. Can I split up the partiton later? Is there any advantage doing it this way. If I leave a section not partitioned then I will have to add a partition on it anyway. Is there the primary and extended partion thing in Ubuntu? I have never used 10.04 -- Is it less efficient (slower?) than 9.10? How long will it take to | 23:02 |
| tripleb-mirc | install Ubuntu on the whole drive? (thanks) | 23:02 |
| ascheel | Dr_Willis: I think the safely remove meant it was working with the USB device and not the drive itself | 23:02 |
| NCS_One | when I watch flash videos Xorg starts using 70 - 80 % of CPU and to get it down I have to restart. Is there something I can do to fix it ? | 23:02 |
| Dr_Willis | tripleb-mirc: the default install will make a / and a swap. You may want to make a / /home and swap. | 23:02 |
| pettigrew95 | Hey can anyone help me with a problem im having installing Ubuntu inside of Windows? | 23:02 |
| ikonia | NCS_One: not really, flash is closed source and eats resource | 23:02 |
| ilovefairuz | thune3: ascheel: this option powers down the device, "eject" just umounts it | 23:02 |
| ascheel | !ask | pettigrew95 | 23:02 |
| ubottu | pettigrew95: 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. :-) | 23:02 |
| Dr_Willis | tripleb-mirc: normal install for me - about 30 min. | 23:03 |
| hellokit1y | D: | 23:03 |
| pepee | pettigrew95, Virtual Machine? just ask | 23:03 |
| NCS_One | ikonia: but if I stop the flash video Xorg is still using 70 80 % | 23:03 |
| Slart | Would it be considered "safe" to cancel a running fsck on an ext3 file system? can I tell it to stop in a nice way? | 23:04 |
| hellokit1y | Yes. | 23:04 |
| tripleb-mirc | how long will it take to install 10.04 on a 1T drive? Hours? Overnight? | 23:04 |
| ikonia | NCS_One: because you still have the player loaded | 23:04 |
| ikonia | tripleb-mirc: minutes | 23:04 |
| IdleOne | tripleb-mirc: no more then 1 hour usually | 23:04 |
| Slart | tripleb-mirc: less than an hour | 23:04 |
| ascheel | tripleb-mirc: I'm guessing 15 minutes? | 23:04 |
| Dr_Willis | tripleb-mirc: i just said.. about 30 min. why would the HD size matter... | 23:04 |
| ikonia | Dr_Willis: only the format section, that's it | 23:04 |
| Dr_Willis | tripleb-mirc: what in the world would make you think it would take overnight? :) | 23:04 |
| ascheel | tripleb-mirc: 15 minutes if you know how to set everything up right out the door. The size of the drive only matters if you do a full format on the drive | 23:04 |
| JEUS | pepee, http://pastebin.com/a7N78GRj | 23:04 |
| Space_Man | about 25 - 35 minutes | 23:05 |
| tripleb-mirc | Dr_Willis thanks for your reply. It took hours /overnight on my 40G drive to change from 9.04 to 9.10. | 23:05 |
| ascheel | tripleb-mirc: ever set up Windows XP yourself? Ubuntu has about 1/10th of the question and the time associated with installing and updating it | 23:05 |
| pepee | JEUS, did that work? | 23:05 |
| Dr_Willis | i find installing from a usb flash drive. a lot faster then installing from a cd also.. but i guess it depends on the speed of your optical drive | 23:05 |
| pepee | JEUS, by the way, no need to copy all the output... | 23:05 |
| Dr_Willis | tripleb-mirc: that was a 'upgrade' not a new install.. and i bet a lot of that was downloading. | 23:05 |
| suprengr | Ubuntu /Grub question: With 10.04.1 due - Would a dual installation of 10.04 & 10.04.1 be ok on same disk - could GRUB differentiate ok? | 23:05 |
| Dr_Willis | suprengr: grub2 sees and adds entries for all the os's it finds for me. if i pluyg in a flash drive with 10.04 on it.. it will add it to the grub menus. :) (which can be annoying, or good) | 23:06 |
| oCean_ | Slart: I'd say that it depends on whatever action the fsck is performing. I guess interrupting while fixing inodes, or rebuilding journal could be problem. | 23:06 |
| pepee | tripleb-mirc, what Dr_Willis said, or problems with the CD/CD reader | 23:06 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: why "dual" installations? just update packages | 23:06 |
| tripleb-mirc | ascheel this is a new drive so I assume it is formatted in NTFS so I would have to do a full format. -- yes I just set up XP on this 40G drive so I can have it for some functions: skype on my webcam. | 23:07 |
| JEUS | no didnt work | 23:07 |
| suprengr | Dr_Willis: cheers | 23:07 |
| RWolf | I've got an issue with "sis" video driver in 10.04 (intel board), there's some garbage on a screen, although "vesa" works ok, how to diagnose it? | 23:07 |
| ascheel | tripleb-mirc: a new install including a full format of that 1TB drive, I'm guessing 1-1.5 hours. | 23:07 |
| pepee | JEUS, what does network manager says? | 23:07 |
| Slart | oCean_: hrmpff.. well.. I'll just let it run then | 23:07 |
| Slart | oCean_: thanks | 23:07 |
| Dr_Willis | formating 1TB hd to ext4 - i dont recall taking too long last i did it.. | 23:07 |
| daniel__ | hi, anybody has here the sony vaio w netbook? | 23:07 |
| pettigrew95 | Ubuntu Install Inside of Windows Question / I booted my Ubuntu 10 live cd and chose install inside Windows. I then restarted and let it finish installing. I boot back into windows and Ubuntu shows in my programs and features page but there's no way to execute it and run it. Anyone know what's up? | 23:07 |
| ascheel | tripleb-mirc: and about 45% of that is the formatting itself. Dr_Willis if you do a quick format, it's done very fast. | 23:07 |
| ilovefairuz | !details | daniel__ | 23:07 |
| ubottu | daniel__: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." | 23:07 |
| oCean_ | Slart: sit it out :p | 23:07 |
| Dr_Willis | perhaps 10 min? it was USB - so thats hard to tell. | 23:07 |
| tripleb-mirc | Dr_Willis I have a 1.3 cable internet connection. Cant be the downloading. | 23:08 |
| Slart | oCean_: I'll sleep it out =) | 23:08 |
| vhugox | I have Ubuntu 9.04 and my microphone doesn't work. I can't listen any audio, but on Debian it works perfectly. | 23:08 |
| Dr_Willis | tripleb-mirc: if everyone was updateing at the same time.. yes it could been the download speeds.. but it dosent matter now.. | 23:08 |
| ascheel | tripleb-mirc: My advice is to just install it. :) The longer you debate, you could be almost done! :D | 23:08 |
| JEUS | no do any things is disable and didnt work | 23:08 |
| === [IA]Zealot_ is now known as [IA]Zealot | ||
| tripleb-mirc | ascheel Dr_Willis -- is there a disadvantage to quick formatting vs full formatting. (I should learn the difference.) | 23:08 |
| mkanyicy | vhugox, I thought a microphone is not for listening | 23:08 |
| Dr_Willis | tripleb-mirc: you rarely need to do a full format. | 23:09 |
| ascheel | tripleb-mirc: I agree with Dr_Willis, but I'm paranoid so I do anyway. | 23:09 |
| Dr_Willis | tripleb-mirc: learn the differance if youy want to save hours and hours of time. | 23:09 |
| pepee | JEUS, I recommend you to go to the channel of your country | 23:09 |
| daniel__ | ubottu: ok, i am running the ubuntu netbook remix 10.04 on my sony vaio w netbook, and the problem is, i cannot use the wifi, network manager says, the 'device is not ready'. i tried to install drivers via Hardware Drivers program, but it did not offer me anything. | 23:09 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:09 |
| tripleb-mirc | OK I need to decid re 10.04. Is it slower than 9.10? ie less efficient. | 23:09 |
| ilovefairuz | tripleb-mirc: not relevant any more | 23:09 |
| Dr_Willis | tripleb-mirc: why would it be slower/less efficnent? | 23:09 |
| suprengr | ilovefairuz: I have a longo utstanding issue with firefox not resolved - (gtk gt+ rendering following a kde desktop tryout. After many suggestions and much helpp fromall good people here, no result. So Iwant to safley /slowly get out of a non-urgent annoyance. | 23:09 |
| pepee | vhugox, if I recall correctly, 9.04 had a lot of problems with the audio drivers | 23:10 |
| ascheel | tripleb-mirc: it does not seem slower to me. I think the upgrade is worth it | 23:10 |
| HolyTony | how do i make ubuntu volume control likes mac volume control? When i turn up the volume i want to hear a noise telling how loud it is | 23:10 |
| EvilDin | hi, with which tool can i sign pdf in cli? | 23:10 |
| daniel__ | i am running the ubuntu netbook remix 10.04 on my sony vaio w netbook, and the problem is, i cannot use the wifi, network manager says, the 'device is not ready'. i tried to install drivers via Hardware Drivers program, but it did not offer me anything. | 23:10 |
| tripleb-mirc | Well I thought it took 3 times as long to load up from the liveCD as 9.04. | 23:10 |
| Dr_Willis | newer drivers = more optmized for the most part. | 23:10 |
| Dr_Willis | tripleb-mirc: the live cd's are not a good 'test' of that | 23:10 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: what was/is the issue? | 23:10 |
| Dr_Willis | tripleb-mirc: a full install here boots up in under 30 sec.. thats MUCh faster then 9.04 - | 23:10 |
| ascheel | tripleb-mirc: live CDs are slow. The files are compressed and CDs in comparison are VERY slow to load files from. | 23:11 |
| vhugox | pepee, yeah i know, i dont know what to do. What do you recommend? | 23:11 |
| KE1HA | Same here, it's real fast on Boot. | 23:11 |
| tripleb-mirc | Dr_Willis - why not a livecd vs livecd test? Well I thought it (10.04) took 3 times as long to load up from the liveCD as 9.04. | 23:11 |
| ascheel | tripleb-mirc: the only way you're going to be able to gauge it is through a real install/boot | 23:11 |
| pepee | vhugox, to update your system | 23:11 |
| Dr_Willis | tripleb-mirc: the CD's speed is the boottleneck. not the drivers/bianries/os.. | 23:11 |
| graffy | I can get to the websites in "Low Graphics Mode" | 23:11 |
| ascheel | tripleb-mirc: live CDs are not built to be boot efficient. They're built to put as much content into 650 MB as they possibly can | 23:11 |
| pepee | vhugox, or try and install newer packages manually | 23:11 |
| tripleb-mirc | Ok will install 10.04. | 23:11 |
| IdleOne | !sounbd | vhugox | 23:12 |
| IdleOne | !sound | vhugox | 23:12 |
| ubottu | vhugox: 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. | 23:12 |
| tripleb-mirc | get back to you in xchat. thanks ascheel and Dr_Willis | 23:12 |
| Dr_Willis | TinyCore linux boots in like 20 sec from a live cd. :) that dosent make it more efficient. | 23:12 |

| hellokit1y | Vili? :O | 23:14 |
| vhugox | ubottu, ok thanks. I'm going to do that, on debian it was so easy, i'm going to update my system, lather i'll go to the forums. Thanks bro! | 23:14 |

| Jordan_U | bytesaber: Don't worry about it, you shouldn't need to specify devices manually anyway, and if you do you should use UUIDs instead of static device names. | 23:16 |
| suprengr | ilovefairuz: after prolonged research Ifound people with same issue going back to 9.05. None solved but nearest came up with Firefox & OOO.org use different rendering which KDE , once used, is kept. | 23:16 |

| JEUS | pepee, TNX a lot\ | 23:18 |
| KE1HA | shane2peru, google-desktop | 23:18 |
| ascheel | In ubuntu server, should SD cards and whatnot automount? | 23:18 |
| pepee | JEUS, try this: sudo aptitutde -d install network-manager; sudo aptitude purge network-manager{,-gnome}; sudo aptitutde install network-manager | 23:18 |
| shane2peru | KE1HA, is there a native linux alternative? | 23:18 |
| KE1HA | Dont think it can Source Binary files, not many apps can do that. | 23:18 |
| maco | ascheel: no | 23:19 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: well the brute force solution would be to just create a new user (with a brand new home directory) | 23:19 |
| EvilPhoenix | anyone know where Apache's configs are? | 23:19 |
| ascheel | maco, is that a gnome thing? | 23:19 |
| maco | ascheel: that's a function of the desktop environment when things automount in gnome or kde | 23:19 |
| pepee | JEUS, that will remove network manager completely, and reinstall it | 23:19 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: thus ignoring all previous .files | 23:19 |
| ascheel | maco: thanks for the confirmation. :) | 23:19 |
| shane2peru | KE1HA, not in the repos | 23:19 |
| ilovefairuz | EvilPhoenix: /etc/ ? | 23:19 |
| rww | EvilPhoenix: /etc/apache2/ | 23:19 |
| KE1HA | shane2peru, not sure, that's what I used, it's pretty slick one ya set it up. | 23:19 |
| EvilPhoenix | thanks | 23:19 |
| pettigrew95 | pepee no its not a virtual machine | 23:19 |
| pepee | pettigrew95, do you want to install ubuntu using wubi? | 23:20 |
| shane2peru | KE1HA, yeah, I have used it, but as of late I'm trying to stick to repo apps, and not a bunch of outside stuff. | 23:20 |
| pettigrew95 | That | 23:20 |
| pettigrew95 | That's what I did. | 23:20 |
| pettigrew95 | I then restarted the computer and it finished install. | 23:20 |
| pettigrew95 | Went back into Windows and I see the folder on my HDD but nowhere to run the Ubuntu instance inside of my Win environment. | 23:21 |
| shane2peru | looks like beagle vs strigi any prefs one way or the other? | 23:21 |
| Dr_Willis | ascheel: there are automount services you can isntall on a server. | 23:21 |
| KE1HA | shane2peru, fare enough, I dont know of a gnome-app that is similar to google-desktop .. not to say there isn't one, I just don't know it. | 23:21 |
| pepee | pettigrew95, so the installer didn't install grub... | 23:21 |
| shane2peru | KE1HA, ok, thanks for the info, may have to go with google-desktop, if nothing else, thanks | 23:22 |
| pettigrew95 | I chose install inside of Windows and it did its thing. | 23:22 |
| Dr_Willis | wubi uses the windows boot manager I thought. | 23:22 |
| suprengr | ilovefairuz: yep, I agree... but I have all my data on separate partitions [smug smile], 10.04.1 is due in a few days - so i thought, 'what the heck'... start on a clean deck' :D | 23:22 |

| rww | qUaNtiC_: What's the output of "apt-cache policy firefox"? | 23:23 |
| chrOnik | i think i have the wrong drivers or something | 23:23 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: besides these "revision" ISOs don't offer anything new, just the package fixes you get when updating | 23:23 |
| chrOnik | ithink its rv200 based? chip | 23:23 |
| pettigrew95 | I got the dual boot menu on startup. | 23:23 |
| pepee | pettigrew95, you cant... | 23:23 |
| rww | qUaNtiC_: (copy it to http://paste.ubuntu.com/, link the page it creates here) | 23:23 |
| IdleOne | pettigrew95: ok with the arrow keys scroll down to Ubuntu and then hit enter | 23:23 |
| hellokit1y | pepee: Isn't there a "live" version that runs in a VM? | 23:23 |
| chrOnik | i cant remember what i did, last time to fix it :/ please any1 :D | 23:23 |
| pettigrew95 | Yes but that boots into Ubuntu. | 23:24 |

| drbobb | hey guys, the two most recent kernel updates on lucid are not booting on my machine - wtf? | 23:24 |
| pettigrew95 | I want Ubuntu to run but inside of my Windows environment. | 23:24 |
| IdleOne | pettigrew95: correct, you can only run one OS at a time | 23:24 |
| Dr_Willis | chrOnik: the old (and not so old) ati cards now use the GPL/OSS normal drivers.. those may not work perfectly | 23:24 |
| hellokit1y | pettigrew95: Just got download Sun's xVM/VirtualBox | 23:24 |
| IdleOne | pettigrew95: so either you boot to windows or you boot to Ubuntu | 23:24 |
| hellokit1y | pettigrew95: it's free and just run the VM. | 23:24 |
| chrOnik | well i dont need nothing fancy? just 1920x1080 :/ | 23:24 |
| chrOnik | or do u mean they have major bugs? | 23:24 |

| olskolirc | thanks Dr :-) | 23:26 |
| hellokit1y | xD | 23:26 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: the apps are installed system-wide, not per user, so you won't need to reinstall anything, you'll just need to redo your preferences, export bookmarks and re-import them, etc | 23:26 |
| olskolirc | thanks hellokit1y | 23:26 |
| drbobb | helloooo anyone seen the problem that recent kernel updates on lucid don't boot? | 23:26 |

| Dr_Willis | drbobb: seems theres a few people with issues.. | 23:27 |
| KE1HA | Just a few :-) Dr_Wills :-) | 23:27 |
| pepee | JEUS, try this: sudo dhclient eth0 | 23:27 |
| qUaNtiC_ | can anyone tell me why i cant see anything written in ff3 but just images and lines? | 23:27 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: since the config files are your problem, i suggest you don't copy anything except exporting bookmarks and re-import them | 23:28 |
| pepee | JEUS, I made a mistake, sorry... | 23:28 |
| drbobb | Dr_Willis: I was thinking it might have to do with my use of LVM? | 23:28 |
| Dr_Willis | qUaNtiC_: make a new user and see if affects them. | 23:28 |
| KE1HA | The last kenerl update has really thrown few flags fer sure. | 23:28 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: copy any other important data by hand | 23:28 |
| rww | qUaNtiC_: considering that it consists entirely of "http://paste.ubuntu.com/", I sincerely doubt it. | 23:28 |
| bazhang | qUaNtiC_, what does lsb_release -a show | 23:28 |
| qUaNtiC_ | rww: then it means it wouldnt even let me paste anthing | 23:29 |
| bazhang | qUaNtiC_, would that be 8.10 perhaps? | 23:29 |
| qUaNtiC_ | wait ill try again | 23:29 |
| extor | Is it bad when your hard drive has a much much slower transfer speed from the other end of the platter than the inner end? http://pastebin.com/idMB8FL9 | 23:29 |
| Resolance | Is it possible for Fedora 13 with GRUB to boot Ubuntu 10.04 by editing grub.conf? | 23:29 |
| bazhang | Resolance, ask in #fedora ? | 23:29 |
| drbobb | actually it's the two latest kernels that fail to boot, the previous are ok. The panic is about failing to mount root filesystem.. | 23:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Resolance: yes. it shoul;d be possible | 23:29 |
| gabriel | Hi everyone | 23:29 |
| qUaNtiC_ | rww:http://paste.ubuntu.com/474266/ | 23:29 |
| hellokit1y | Resolance: Have a special relationship with that Grub conf? :P | 23:29 |
| KE1HA | extor, think abt that for a monent, which one has further to travel, inner or outer ? | 23:29 |
| sometux | where i can find system crash log, so i can know why my system crashed? | 23:29 |
| suprengr | ilovefairuz: sideways thinking... &why didn'tIthink of this before! What about uninstalling firefox and OOO.org and reinstalling (as current user)? | 23:29 |
| maxwellian | If anyone wants to help with my boot problem, I've pasted my fstab here: (http://paste.ubuntu.com/474249/) and the output of fdisk -l here: (http://paste.ubuntu.com/474251/) | 23:30 |
| gabriel | I want to make a custom Ubuntu 10.4 cd with some packages on it, how can I do that? | 23:30 |

| qUaNtiC_ | sorry | 23:30 |
| extor | KE1HA, think about THIS for a moment...why is the difference in speed on some hard drives between inner and outer tracks not as dramatic as on this drive? That's the question | 23:30 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: won't do much good because their config files will remain but I don't think their config files are the problem, probably some broken gtkrc files | 23:31 |
| gabriel | ok, How do I use it? | 23:31 |
| KE1HA | extor, there's far to many reason for that than can be explain in a chat, but that's nto what you asked. | 23:31 |
| Cheguerz | Cheguerz: If I use vpn pptp, is it normal for the pptp service to always be running started as root: /usr/sbin/pptp "name of VPN provider" -- nolaunchpppd. Or is it some sort of vulnerability. Thank you. | 23:31 |
| sometux | my system crash randomly, where i can start troubleshooting? | 23:31 |
| IdleOne | gabriel: ubottu sent you a link, follow it. | 23:31 |
| KE1HA | extor, you asked if it is "bad" .. and the answer would be not always, but could be. | 23:32 |
| hellokit1y | sometux: Right here. =) | 23:32 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: press ctrl + h in file manager and backup their config folders to another location, then start the app to make it generate a new config and see if it helps | 23:32 |
| gabriel | but is there a program with a GUI interface to do that? | 23:32 |
| jasonwryan | sometux: check your logs... | 23:32 |
| bazhang | gabriel, did you read the link? | 23:32 |
| === em is now known as emma | ||
| sometux | hellokit1y, is three any log file related to crashing | 23:32 |
| qUaNtiC_ | please help, i cant even search a solution on the web cuz it doesnt let me see any written thing | 23:32 |
| IdleOne | gabriel: read the link, it is not a simple 1 step thing to do but not as hard as you imagine either | 23:33 |
| pepee | sometux, check your memory modules | 23:33 |
| sometux | *there | 23:33 |
| mrandrzejak | I have a small older computer... with 128mb ram. Can anyone recommend an OS that can run off of it? I tried Xubuntu and its sluggish. I would try Lubuntu but I dont recall if that has the software center. | 23:33 |
| KE1HA | extor, and even if the delta is "dramatic' doesn't = a problem. | 23:33 |
| rww | qUaNtiC_: close any running copies of firefox, do "mv ~/.mozilla ~/mozilla-profile" in the terminal to move your Firefox profile out of the way (you can restore it later with "rm ~/.mozilla; mv ~/mozilla-profile ~/.mozilla"), then reopen and see if the problem still happens | 23:33 |
| bazhang | gabriel, the answer is yes, you need to read the link though | 23:33 |
| pepee | sometux, /ver/log/syslog , dmesg | 23:33 |
| Dr_Willis | mrandrzejak: you can always use the apt-get command line to install stuff | 23:33 |
| qUaNtiC_ | rww: kk right away | 23:33 |
| rww | sorry, that rm ~/.mozilla should be rm -r ~/.mozilla | 23:33 |
| MakX | Hi. Have a vista laptop and ubuntu pc. Samba installed, my Mac can connect and mount volumes hosted on the ubuntu PC. Vista can see the 'network drives' but can't mount them citing an unknown error. :S | 23:33 |
| mrandrzejak | its true. Do you think Lubuntu would be better? | 23:33 |
| Dr_Willis | mrandrzejak: you may want to try to find some more ram. it shouldent be that expenxive and will be a big big boost. | 23:33 |
| extor | KE1HA, might be a sign of impending failure or manufacturing weaknesses | 23:34 |
| mrandrzejak | I had PClinuxOS installed and it was pretty fast. | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | mrandrzejak: lubuntu uses less resources.. but 128mb is very very very low these day | 23:34 |
| qUaNtiC_ | rww: wait can u re-write it once more? | 23:34 |
| suprengr | ilovefairuz: ok... don't feelso bad about not trying the reinstall now :) Don't need the show hidden files Ctrl H bit first - entire home directory backed up weekly to 2nd hard disk [double smug smile] | 23:34 |
| kbrosnan | rww: rm is not a good command to give people, use mv | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | mrandrzejak: theres tiny core linux, or other Uber-minimal disrtos out also | 23:34 |
| mrandrzejak | I cannot upgrade the ram anymore. It was a mini system out of a video poker box | 23:34 |
| Dr_Willis | mrandrzejak: it dependsd on your needs. | 23:34 |
| mrandrzejak | I would love to have the ubuntu OS (of some variation) | 23:35 |
| KE1HA | extor, tiz true, but may also mean there more data in those sectors than others, only an in depth analysis would tell the truth. | 23:35 |
| maxwellian | mrandrzejak: If you need a graphical interface on 128 mb, my guess is you're going to be hurting. | 23:35 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: great then just restore a backup before the problem (but mind any new important files) | 23:35 |
| hellokit1y | DSL | 23:35 |
| Dr_Willis | mrandrzejak: luibuntu is about as light as you are goiong to get for a 'desktop' setup. | 23:35 |
| rww | qUaNtiC_: 1) close firefox, 2) mv ~/.mozilla/ ~/mozilla-profile/ 3) start firefox | 23:35 |
| rww | qUaNtiC_: to undo (2) later, 1) rm -r ~/.mozilla/ 2) mv ~/mozilla-profile/ ~/.mozilla/ | 23:35 |
| hellokit1y | SandGorgon: xD | 23:36 |

| qUaNtiC_ | rww: didnt solve the prob | 23:36 |
| KE1HA | extor, have a look at IOMeter or IOZone, could tell you much more about real performace issues than guessing. | 23:36 |
| mrandrzejak | thanks Dr_Willis | 23:38 |
| suprengr | ilovefairuz: smug smile gone... it tookso long finding out what had gone wrong, next wee's backup had happened - have you ever seen someone kick their own genitals before - I have - me! | 23:38 |
| rww | qUaNtiC_: have you manually installed any fonts to your computer recently? | 23:38 |
| suprengr | *week's | 23:38 |
| nomicarious | hello everyone | 23:39 |
| qUaNtiC_ | rww: i think so yes | 23:39 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: then just do the selective config regeneration, it's a lot easier | 23:39 |
| nomicarious | i'd like your help | 23:39 |
| rww | qUaNtiC_: according to people with similar issues on Ubuntu Forums, that can cause the problem. Try removing them again and see if it fixes it. | 23:39 |
| pepee | !ask | nomicarious | 23:39 |
| qUaNtiC_ | rww: downloaded from dafont and copied into the fonts folder, they also worked | 23:39 |
| ubottu | nomicarious: 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. :-) | 23:39 |
| IdleOne | nomicarious: ask and someone will help if they can | 23:40 |
| qUaNtiC_ | rww: ok but how can i find those recently installed fonts? i mean its so many of em | 23:40 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: try this in a terminal: firefox -safe-mode | 23:40 |
| Dr_Willis | qUaNtiC_: you installed to Your users .fonts dir? or to tye system wide fonts dir? | 23:40 |
| nomicarious | is there any way to rip a perfect copy out of a protected pc game in ubuntu like using alcohol120% in windows? | 23:40 |
| suprengr | ilovefairuz: just trying now | 23:40 |
| kentr | Anyone have suggestions for troubleshooting ftp connection issues with ubuntu server karmic? | 23:41 |
| qUaNtiC_ | Dr_Willis: i copied the files into /usr/fonts | 23:41 |
| Dr_Willis | nomicarious: totally depends on the game. | 23:41 |
| Kurlon | Hopefully someone's run into this before, I've got 10.4 installed on a Soekris 4801, serial console only. Grub2 works beautifully, but I can't get the kernel to output to the serial port. When the box was working I'd see grub, long delay... then init would spawn a console on ttyS0 and I'd have access. Well now that it's failing during boot for some unknown reason, I can't get into it to fix it. | 23:41 |
| YankDownUnder | kentr, client side or server side? | 23:41 |
| ilovefairuz | nomicarious: dd /dev/cdrom0 /path/to/file.iso | 23:41 |
| Dr_Willis | qUaNtiC_: in the future you may want to use your users personal .fonts directory | 23:41 |
| nomicarious | gui supported? | 23:42 |
| suprengr | ilovefairuz: done it, menus the same | 23:42 |
| ilovefairuz | nomicarious: no in a terminal | 23:42 |
| qUaNtiC_ | Dr_Willis: i read it on the forum, just followed the instructions, copy them into usr | 23:42 |
| Dr_Willis | nomicarious: if you need the features of alcohol120 then you proberly should be using that tool. | 23:42 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: then it's some gtkrc file | 23:42 |
| qUaNtiC_ | usr/share/fonts | 23:42 |
| kentr | ilovefairuz: client-side. I'm trying to open outgoing connection. Just hangs. So does a ping. I don't know enough about network / DNS to know where to look. | 23:42 |
| Kurlon | I can add console=ttyS0,115200 to the kernel boot string till I'm blue in the face and near as I can see the kernel just ignores the setting. | 23:42 |
| Dr_Willis | qUaNtiC_: for a single user theres no need to use /usr/share/fonts .fonts will do. | 23:42 |
| nomicarious | no apps running a gui? | 23:42 |
| suprengr | ilovefairuz: yep that's what the long research cameup with | 23:42 |
| nomicarious | alcohol won't run in wine | 23:43 |
| Dr_Willis | nomicarious: the issue with game disks is all teh tricks.. dd may or may not work. | 23:43 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: just do a new user | 23:43 |
| qUaNtiC_ | rww, Dr_Willis: so how do i unistall those fonts in order to have firefox working properly again and finally showing me all the writings? | 23:43 |
| Dr_Willis | qUaNtiC_: did you make a new user and see iof the issue affects them as well? If the issue affects Everyone. then it Might be a fonts issue | 23:43 |
| pepee | nomicarious, make an image of the cd/dvd and burn it, that's what you mean? | 23:43 |
| suprengr | ilovefairuz: methinks you're right | 23:43 |
| pepee | nomicarious, or mount it? | 23:44 |
| YankDownUnder | kentr, Um....so you're trying to ping the server, but you get nothing back - just a hang? | 23:44 |
| pepee | JEUS, you there? | 23:44 |
| nomicarious | even an iso will do the trick as long as it maintains the defective sectors of safedisc protected cdrom | 23:44 |
| JEUS | yes im here | 23:44 |
| Dr_Willis | nomicarious: running games in wine - can often have issues with game copy protection as well. try dd, and see | 23:44 |
| suprengr | ilovefairuz: ...and thank you very much | 23:44 |
| SoldOut | nomicarious: dd will not work! | 23:45 |
| qUaNtiC_ | Dr_Willis: dunno how to do that and i dont think itz a fonts issue but rww said so its reported on some forums so i might want to give it a try, but how? | 23:45 |
| ilovefairuz | nomicarious: it's only a single command, don't be scared of CLI | 23:45 |
| kentr | YankDownUnder: yes. Ultimately, I'm trying to wget from an ftp server. But ping, ftp, and wget all fail to reach the server from this particular machine. Works fine from other machines. | 23:45 |
| Dr_Willis | qUaNtiC_: make a new user.. log in as new user.. try firefox as new user.. | 23:45 |
| ilovefairuz | suprengr: you're welcome | 23:45 |
| JEUS | pepee, im here | 23:45 |
| pepee | JEUS, have internet access in the ubuntu machine? | 23:45 |
| ascheel | Dr_Willis: to automount USB devices in Ubuntu server, the package 'usbmount' is pretty phenomenal, JUST in case you were wondering! | 23:46 |
| JEUS | no i havent access internet | 23:46 |
| pepee | JEUS, is it connected to a router? | 23:46 |
| Dr_Willis | ascheel: i never use the server editions. :) i recall using such tools years and years ago befor gnome/kde handled the task | 23:46 |
| pepee | JEUS, or do you use wifi? | 23:46 |
| nomicarious | thank you very much but still i'm having trouble with the command | 23:46 |
| DGM | they should really use version numbers instead of release names with ubuntu-vm-builder.. how am i ment to know which version is what name from the top of my head :P | 23:46 |
| JEUS | yes is connect to ethernet adsl modem | 23:47 |
| qUaNtiC_ | Dr_Willis: but wait since i put them in usr/share/fonts they're supposed to be shared by all the users so will it make any difference? i mean will i be able to see if that is the prob or not? | 23:47 |
| SoldOut | nomicarious: what command? | 23:47 |
| JEUS | pepee, i use ethernet | 23:47 |
| pepee | JEUS, | 23:47 |

| qUaNtiC_ | Dr_Willis: u didnt get me wil, u said i could find out if this firefox issue was linked to the newly installed fonts, and that if i created a new user and open ff with it i could actually find out if the fonts were the cause of the issue or not. so i assume the new user does not use those fonts and its not affected by the prob, or if he is then its not the fonts causing it. but since i firstly put them in usr | 23:50 |
| qUaNtiC_ | /usr/share/fonts they will be used by every user, so whatz the point? | 23:51 |
| qUaNtiC_ | neway im trying now | 23:51 |

| pepee | maxwellian, /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 23:52 |

| qUaNtiC_ | Dr_Willis: (thatz what i was trying to say) | 23:55 |
| pepee | maxwellian, Resolance, you can replace UUID=<some-hash> with /dev/sdaX | 23:55 |
| SoldOut | petriborg1: your tv should show up as a second monitor | 23:55 |
| Dr_Willis | qUaNtiC_: time to explore your /usr/XXXX/fonts dir and see if you can recall what you changed i guess.. or try altering the fonts settings in forefox to use different fonts. Seems like a font problem would also be affecting other programas/browsers as well.. does chrome, or opera have issues also? | 23:56 |
| makson | can someone explain how ssh will work with chroot, i want it so when someone logs into the server over ssh they get put into chrooted env | 23:56 |

| Resolance | pepee: Okay. Thanks. I'll give it a try. | 23:57 |
| maxwellian | Resolance: I don't think you use the UUID part if ou're not using UUID. | 23:57 |
| SoldOut | petriborg1: do you have a monitor icon on the top bar? | 23:57 |
| qUaNtiC_ | Dr_Willis: i only use ff but ill delete right away the recently installed fonts, alright? | 23:57 |
| Dr_Willis | heh. i never saw taht option on a cd.. | 23:57 |
| DGM | pepee: all those clients bots? lol | 23:57 |
| retour | ubottu: ok thankyou! | 23:57 |
| KE1HA | petriborg1, I did that once as well, tried reconfiguring X-org, to no avail, found the soluton was to do the Install using the HDTV as the monitor. Great Res on a 60" Sony :-) | 23:57 |
| JEUS | pepee, http://pastebin.com/E70E7PzQ | 23:57 |
| pepee | DGM, heh yeah, why not? | 23:57 |
| Dr_Willis | qUaNtiC_: it would be very odd that installing new foints would cause that issue. uinless they overwrote some allready used fonts. | 23:57 |
| maxwellian | Resolance: Double check that before you change it. | 23:57 |
| petriborg1 | SoldOut - you mean on on the gnome panel or whatever? no don't see one | 23:57 |
| Dr_Willis | qUaNtiC_: so it may not be related to teh fonts at all | 23:57 |
| pepee | maxwellian, you don't really need UUID | 23:57 |
| DGM | pepee: seems a bit crazy haha | 23:58 |
| tank_ | hey all, need a little help here, i cannot pick up any wireless networks in ubuntu (was able to do so with no issues in F13) can someone help me please? I have cookies. | 23:58 |
| qUaNtiC_ | Dr_Willis: alright man so what i need to do? | 23:58 |
| petriborg1 | KE1HA i see, well i'll consider that if nothing else works i guess :-/ | 23:58 |
| SoldOut | petriborg1: yeah top bar on gnome try adding it | 23:58 |
| Resolance | maxwellian: I wasn't even able to boot ubuntu before so it's not a big deal. I'm editing it in Fedora right now. But I guess I should just change it to root=/dev/sda3? | 23:58 |
| maxwellian | pepee: I'll try it, but Resolance showed what it would look like after the change and they still have the word UUID in the string | 23:58 |
| YankDownUnder | tank_, Is the proper driver being loaded? | 23:58 |
| SoldOut | petriborg1: I have my hdtv working and installed from normal monitor first | 23:59 |
| KE1HA | petriborg1, I tried fer days, but there my be an X-Org guru here that may be able to sort it out. | 23:59 |
| Dr_Willis | qUaNtiC_: no idea really. It depends on what all you did to the system. You did try the font settings in the firefox configs? | 23:59 |
| tank_ | how do I check? | 23:59 |
| Alazare | anyone know how i can install GLIBC | 23:59 |
| Alazare | i found the doc in synaptic but not the dev | 23:59 |
| pepee | maxwellian, oh yeah, didn't read well | 23:59 |
| petriborg1 | KE1HA - SoldOut - i suppose the live CD saw the hdtv for you? | 23:59 |
| qUaNtiC_ | Dr_Willis: the thing is i cant even search for a solution online cuz i cant read the results!!! ridiculous | 23:59 |
| YankDownUnder | tank_, What was the driver you were using under F13? | 23:59 |
| pepee | Resolance, remove "UUID=" | 23:59 |
| Dr_Willis | qUaNtiC_: there are other browsers you can install.. | 23:59 |
| Resolance | pepee: kernel/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-21-generic root=/dev/sda3 ro quiet splash | 23:59 |
| Resolance | look better? | 23:59 |
