xissburgtensorpudding: but GParted still shows these two partitions as one single unallocated partition00:00
Barnabasempewoow, I think you have to choose between using wicd and using the linux config files to setup your wlan nic00:00
xissburgtensorpudding: yes, exactly the same, they seem intact00:00
Barnabasempewoow, if you choose the /etc/network/ way look at this url https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo00:00
empewoowBarnabas: yes, i think so too00:00
nUboon2Agexissburg: line 90 says "and misteriously it is installing WinXP.."00:00
tensorpuddingxissburg: okay00:00
empewoowBarnabas: ok thanks00:01
Barnabasin place of wlan0 use ath000:01
Barnabasyou have to add the wpa stuff to the networks file00:01
xissburgnUboon2Age:  oh it was because I got to boot in WinXP and it was installing Xp I dont know why...it then finished installation and is now working00:01
tensorpuddingxissburg: so hit enter to go to the next section00:01
xissburgtensorpudding: on which partition?00:02
tensorpuddingxissburg: on the one with your windows 7 files00:02
thune3al_: something like -- find /location/to/search -name "*.jpg" -size +100k -exec cp '{}' /your/target/dir \;00:03
xissburgtensorpudding: right..then?00:03
Bookmandoes AVerLife Cinema work with ubuntu? Or any other type of TV out?00:03
tensorpuddingxissburg: it should take you to a section that looks like http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/File:Search_menu.gif00:04
tensorpuddingxissburg: is that what it looks like?00:04
xissburgtensorpudding: yes00:04
tensorpuddingdoes it have three partitions?00:04
al_thune3: ta00:05
xissburghow to take a screenshot in ubuntu?00:05
xissburgtensorpudding: it actually shows 4 entries00:05
xissburgone line is extended LBA00:05
tensorpuddingxissburg: that means you have an extended partition somewhere00:05
tensorpuddingthat shouldn't be a problem, i don't think00:06
nUboon2Agexissburg: screenshot, there are several ways, but if you go to accessories do you have "Take Screenshot" there?00:06
tensorpuddingbut take a screenshot, yes00:06
xissburgI got with alt+printscr00:07

unitedpotsmokershello guys.... we usually install ubuntu in a hardisk. how to install ubuntu in a pendrive?00:11
tensorpuddingxissburg: what order were your partitions in?00:11
tensorpuddingxissburg: and do those sizes seem reasonable?00:11
xissburgXP, 7, files00:11
xissburgyes00:11
tensorpuddingxissburg: XP and 7 were the same size?00:11
rooksunitedpotsmokers, System -> Administration -> Startup Disk Creator00:11
teunvDunitedpotsmokers: there is a package called usb-creator that you can use to create a bootable pendrive00:11
xissburgtensorpudding: yes...it is XP 80GB, 7 80GB, files 140GB00:12
tensorpuddingxissburg: this looks correct to me, try writing it.00:12
xissburgtensorpudding: so in this screen I go to Write?00:13
rooksunitedpotsmokers, it requirres iso of ubuntu, and i successfully created an pendrive desktop with it, with storage on pendrive :)00:13

A|pHAtensor thx00:13
tensorpuddingand cross your fingers00:13
A|pHALast question00:13
A|pHANeed help installing Vmware00:13
al_anyone know any good fiel recovery software for ntfs partitions? photorec is good but doesnt recover with filenames/dirs etc00:14
tensorpuddingVMware needs to be purchased/downloaded from the VMware website, it is non-free software.00:14
teunvDA|pHA, which product are you trying to install?00:14
xissburgtensorpudding: now GParted shows the 3 partitions, but says the other ones are empty00:14
A|pHAyea you can get open source version free I thought00:14
tensorpuddingal_: testdisk might be able to help you00:14
tensorpuddingxissburg: empty?00:15
xissburgtensorpudding: yes.00:15
A|pHAWorkstation00:15
al_tensorpudding: thanks, but irc testdisk is for stuffed partitions, this is a case of format over data00:15
xissburgtensorpudding: the used space has --, while the XP partition has the actual number00:15
tensorpuddingxissburg: that is odd.00:15
teunvDA|pHA, what's the problem?00:15
A|pHAWell I would use virtual box but its not picking up my wifi drivers00:16
tensorpuddingxissburg: you still need to restore the boot sector, i think00:16
quidnunchttp://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/events/stoc2010/19102/player.htm00:16
quidnunc^ does thisi work for anyone?00:16

A|pHAwhen i go to install Vmware I have no clue where it installed the repositories00:17
quidnuncA|pHA: Not in /etc/apt/sources.list?00:17
xissburgtensorpudding: but testdisk still show all my files00:18
xissburgtensorpudding: I have to reset I think00:18
A|pHAlet me check00:18
nUboon2Agexissburg: reset?  what do you mean by 'reset'?00:18
teunvDA|pHA VMware is non-free software, you must purchase this so it's not in the repository00:18
schoppenhauerhello. is it possible to install wubi on a system that is encrypted with truecrypt?00:18
xissburgreset the other machine / reboot00:19
A|pHAhmm00:19
tensorpuddingit should still boot into XP00:19
xissburgit is booting in XP directly00:19
nUboon2Agexissburg: so it doesn't show windows bootloader menu you mean (ie. 'directly')?00:20
A|pHAI have the serials I will just get a download of RS00:20
A|pHAThanks00:20
=== Rabbitbu1ny is now known as Rabbitbunny
xissburgnUboon2Age: yes not boot menu to choose OS00:22
tensorpuddingthe MBR was overwritten by XP with XP's bootloader00:22
tensorpuddingthere is probably a program in the 7 partition that will restore 7 to the MBR00:22
nUboon2Ageha m$ OSs don't even play nice among themselves. ;/00:23
tensorpuddingXP doesn't play nice with anything, period00:23
c3lrsync vs rsnapshot for backups?00:23
tensorpudding7 is much more charitable00:23
xissburgtensorpudding: good news, now I see my other partitions and all its files from WinXP :)00:23
N3VV3Khey guys i there any way i can shrink my hdd to fit a windows partition00:23
tensorpuddingxissburg: :)00:23
xissburgnow , need to fix MBR. ?00:23
tensorpuddingyou might be able to run easybcd from xp00:24
tensorpuddingeasybcd can restore windows 7 to the bootloader i believe00:24
nUboon2Agexissburg: i was confident that nothing had actually altered your win 7 partition.  Wubi certainly doesn't.  its probably just been problems with the Windows bootloader all along.00:24
cristianhola y hello a todos and for all00:24
tensorpuddingerr, nevermind00:24
aeon-ltdN3VV3K: look up gparted liveCD00:24
xissburgso easybcd does the job?00:25
nUboon2Agetensorpudding: xissburg i used easybcd before.  it worked quite nicely.00:25
FshyHey guys. Having a small but annoying issue with Ubuntu -- namely, I have an Aspire TimelineX 4820TG, but installing the FRGLX proprietary driver causes the laptop to blackscreen at start.00:25
xissburgI'll take  alook00:25
tensorpuddingi'm not sure if it runs on windows xp00:25
tensorpuddingit's worth a try00:25
tensorpuddingvista changed the bootloader format so that it worked nicely with other OS00:25
FshyI can reset it by using the nomodeset startup options, but I have to disable the FRGLX drivers to make it work.00:25

FshyAnyone got any ideas on my issue?00:26
cristianalguien me podria ayudar00:27
Ederablas cristian00:27
N3VV3Ktensorpudding, how do you pronounce your name00:27
tensorpuddingN3VV3K: exactly how you would guess00:28
cristianok, then we make it in english00:28
Ederok00:28
N3VV3Ktens or pudding or tenso r pudding00:28
tensorpuddingcristian: you can install 32-bit the same way as 64-bit00:28
Fshy94Apologies. Dc'ed.00:28
ActionParsnipFshy: try this: http://idyllictux.wordpress.com/2010/04/26/lucidubuntu-10-04-high-resolution-plymouth-virtual-terminal-for-atinvidia-cards-with-proprietaryrestricted-driver/   Use it until you get to the embedded video00:28
tensorpuddingcristian: it will overwrite your old files, so do a backup if there is something you want to save00:28
N3VV3Klol00:28
cristianyes but first i want to uninstall it00:28
tensorpuddingno need00:29
cristianand don know how00:29
tensorpuddinginstalling 32-bit will take care of it00:29
Ederinstall the 64bits, to very much performance00:29
Fshy94ActionParsnip -- I love you.00:30
cristianso it will go in the same partition and the 64 will be erased?00:30
tensorpuddingcristian: yes00:30
avi_hey, where are mounted CDs mounted to? Like if I wanted to SSH into my comp, and cd to a CD I have in the computer, where would I cd to? Thanks!00:30
Fshy94Will attempt, if it works, I'll post that so nobody else has that issue.00:30
avi_Because it's not in /cdrom or /media.00:30
annnieavi_: /dev/sr? something00:30
nUboon2Agexissburg: i found EasyBCD here: http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=100:31
headkase314For 32-bit versus 64-bit I've read that the executables (not program data) are on average 9% bigger and you get a performance boost on average 3-4% faster.  However having 4GB or more for memory should be the primary reason to choose 64-bit.  If you have more than 4GB and wish to use 32-bit you can also install a PAE (Physical Address Extension) kernel to have 32-bit and be able to utilize all your memory.00:31
nUboon2Agexissburg: like tensorpudding i can't tell if it will run from XP.00:31
=== TheAnswer is now known as Thornton
avi_annnie, Not that I can see, I don't have a /sr folder, and I've checked the similarly named ones. Hmm00:32
xissburgnUboon2Age: :(00:32
=== Thornton is now known as TheAnswer
xissburgthen?00:32
annnieavi_: what does fstab -l say?00:32
nUboon2Agexissburg: i'm not saying it won't.  i'm just saying i don't know.00:32
cristianthanks a lot, and the last question is that i have on my computer also windows 7 64 bits and thatś why i installed ubuntu 64 but it seems it doesn work very well00:33
xissburghehe ok00:33
tensorpuddingcristian: which doesn't work well?00:33
cristian64 once00:33
cristianit congelate very often00:34
schoppenhauerhello. is it possible to install wubi on a system that is encrypted with truecrypt?00:34
xissburgnUboon2Age: it is running till now00:34
avi_annnie, Interestingly enough, command not found. I'm using lucid, and the only thing fstab thing I have in /etc is fstab-decode. Hmmmmm00:34
xissburgit shows the partitions00:34
nUboon2Agexissburg: easybcd is running and showing partitions?00:35
tensorpuddingcristian: that should not happen..00:35
=== SolidLiq is now known as solid_liq
avi_annnie, No wait, that's wrong. I've got fstab in there but it when I type fstab, fstab -l, or sudo fstab, the command isn't found..00:36
ActionParsnipcristian: it works pretty well, but 32bit is slighlty more supported in some situations but 64bit is great if you have more than 3Gb ram, pae is one solution though00:36
xissburgnUboon2Age: not exactly the partitions but the OSes, XP,7 and Ubuntu00:36
annnieavi_: ok try mount -l00:36
tensorpuddingcristian: are you doing anything when it freezes?00:36
nUboon2Agexissburg: easybcd is showing OSes?  That sounds very promising.00:37
Rogue1heyhey?00:37
xissburgnUboon2Age: yes it does, and also show some details00:37
xomp_netbook'Ello, I just purchased an Acer Aspire One D260 and am already tired of this Win7 Starter. Hoping someone can help me perhaps get ubuntu installed on this instead? it has no CDROM but I do have an external blank USB hdd I can use if need be.00:37
annnieavi_: the cd has to be mounted00:38
avi_annnie, Yeah that worked. I see my internal and external hard drives.00:38
tensorpuddingxomp_netbook: the easiest way is to make a bootable usb pendrive using unetbootin00:38
avi_annnie, It is indeed mounted, or at least I can browse it in nautilus00:38
cristianiĺl be back in a secound please00:38
annnieavi_: the cd has to be mounted then you can talk to it00:38
tensorpuddingxomp_netbook: but you may consider trying wubi or running ubuntu in virtualbox00:38
A|pHAwhat flash do i need for 10.4 tls ?00:38
avi_annnie, But shouldn't viewing and playing the contents in nautilus indicate that its mounted?00:39
annnieavi_: so wheres it mounted at?00:39
xomp_netbooktensorpudding, can a bootable unetbootin be used on a 1Gb pendrive? I'm afraid I have no larger pendrives.00:39
headkase314xomp_netbook, UNetbootin is what you are looking for -> http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/  You can make your blank USB harddrive bootable with an Ubuntu install with it but preferrably you would use a USB thumbdrive.00:39
=== mindsystem_ is now known as mindsystem
tensorpuddingxomp_netbook: the cdrom installer iso is 600 MB, it will fit00:39
nUboon2Agebtw if you didn't know xissburg, wubi doesn't actually create an ubuntu partition -- it runs as a Windows program with most all the OS contained in one Windows file.  The only thing it changes is inserts an Ubuntu entry into Windows bootloader menu.  It does not alter the MBR afaik.00:39
annnieavi_: yes it seems to be mounted00:39
xomp_netbookah ok, thanks guys I'll give that unetbootin a looksy00:39
avi_annnie, That's the question.. I think it should be in /media/cdrom0, but it's not.. let me try ejecting and remounting..00:40
headkase314xomp_netbook, remember it can be difficult to go back to Windows without an installation method so if things go south maybe someone can lend you a usb cd-rom to reinstall Windows with - be prepared.00:40
annnieavi_: well mount -l tells you where its mounted00:41
xomp_netbookheadkase314, I have 2 other machines in the house running Win7 and an OSX machine too hehe. Linux needs to be in the family :P00:41
c3lwhat file would be the best place to put configurations such as xset foo etc that doesnt get saved?00:41
ActionParsnipnUboon2Age: its actually an image file, the boot loader simply mounts the image and boots the data, just like an ISO can be booted in grub200:41
nUboon2Agexissburg: so wubi is very light on the system, and really usually quite safe.  Real dual boot systems (such as what you've got now with Windows 7 and XP) are much more complicated than Wubi.00:41
scott__Is it OK to have some code in Drupal using .inc files that have regular forms instead of FAPI ?00:41
nUboon2AgeActionParsnip: oh, interesting.  thanks for that info.00:42
phoenixandthorhey guys, I'm trying to follow a tutorial here: http://conkyhardcore.com/beginners/tips-tricks/tt-2-if_existing/ But when I plug in a flash drive, it always comes up as a something other 'disk'. Is here any way to fix this? Look at the tutorial and you'll see what I mean00:42
bryanwithyI haven't used irc in a long time....how do I tell who's in here?00:42
xomp_netbookoh, last question, is there anyway I can be sure wifi will work with ubuntu on this netbook?00:42
ActionParsnipbryanwithy: what client?00:43
xissburgso nUboon2Age what do I do in easyBCD?00:43
bryanwithyxchat00:43
xomp_netbookI'd hate to be arsed an install and have no wifi after heh00:43
syslqxomp_netbook: get bootable usb and try00:43
nUboon2Agexissburg: but at this point you've acquired quite a bit of experience with dual booting.  Not pleasant experience, i understand, but nevertheless you've covered many of the areas that can be problematic.00:43
ActionParsnipxomp_netbook: check the hcl, or you can just use the livecd / usb environment and test00:43
Dr_Willisxomp_netbook:  check the forums.. or test with a live cd/flash.  Most netbooks are decently well supported.00:43
xomp_netbookgotcha, thanks00:43
IdleOnebryanwithy: expand the nick list on the right of the screen00:43
nUboon2Agexissburg: off the top of my head i don't remember.00:43
ActionParsnipbryanwithy: the right hand window is the user list00:43
headkase314xomp_netbook, with the LiveCD you'll put on the USB pendrive there is a "try" option, try that first.00:44
annnieavi_: has that helped?00:44
avi_annnie, AH! I've found it! It was listed in mount -l, but I initially overlooked it because I didn't think that it would be located at /home/myuseracc/.gvfs/cdda mount on sr0... what a terrible place to mount!00:44
florentinhello00:44
xissburgnUboon2Age: yea...despite the suffering, it is worth because I learned something...but I'm not yet finished heh00:44
bryanwithyah, I think I was confused...I thought xchat-gnome and xchat were the same thing00:44
florentinhave you an idea for download the file from an xspf file?00:45
syslqavi_: it's coz of fuse00:45
annnieavi_: ok hope that helped00:45
tensorpuddingxissburg: you first would need to install a windows 7 bootloader00:45
bryanwithyI found the nicklist in xchat-gnome, though00:45
IdleOnebryanwithy: they are different but basic layout is the same00:45
nUboon2Agexissburg: baptism in fire.  not fun but it will give you confidence that things can be fixed w/o having to reinstall.00:45
tensorpuddingxissburg: i think this is done under the manage bootloader menu00:45
headkase314xomp_netbook, sometimes your wireless will come up as a restricted driver - you'll get a notificiation if so so you know you can install that when you put in on the hard drive.  Make sure you have wired network access, with wired you can usually work wireless into the picture.00:45
Dr_Willisbryanwithy:  most people that use xchat -   tend to HATE xchat-gnome :)00:45
avi_annnie, Yes, thanks a bunch!00:45
tensorpuddingxissburg: then you would need to create a bootloader entry for windows 700:46
avi_syslq, Ah gotcha. Any way to override that? Why should CDs be mounted with FUSE?00:46
syslqDr_Willis: and for a good reason :), it lacks "dock to systray" if I remember right00:46
annnieavi_: np glad to help00:46
syslqavi_: dunno, check your mountd settings00:46
geoffmcci cant seem to get a startup script to run as a user not root. I thought i did this b4 by chown the script i was trying to start. cant find help on web any pointers?00:47

mike1_any help00:49

annniegeoffmcc: sure but  script may need to be root user00:50

cristianiḿ back.....like james brown.....hihihihi00:59
nUboon2Agexissburg: if you are looking at a screen like ^^^ the second section/lower right hand side where it says MBR Configuration Options is the part where you can install Win 7 bootloader.  The part above that doesn't matter right now.00:59

xissburgnUboon2Age: ok I did it, I clicked the red button01:00
xissburgbut shouldnt there be partitions?01:00
bryanwithyI have a strange problem that I haven't been able to fix...Ubuntu does not see audio CDs when I load them into my CD or DVD drive, but data CDs work fine.  If I reboot with an audio CD loaded, then I can see it....01:01
cristianand computer is cuore 2 duo01:01
annniexissburg: you should have taken the BLUE one!!!01:01
nUboon2Agexissburg: if you're asking about the section on the top right, that is only talking about *external* media and *those* partitions.01:01

syslqBlueIceVirus: it did01:03
nUboon2Agetensorpudding: okay xissburg has installed the win 7 bootloader, is there more xissburg needs to do with easybcd?01:03
headkase314BlueIceVirus, yes.  Below the Alsa setting there should be a device selection drop-down box, what is in that box for choices?01:03
BlueIceVirussyslq, thats a nifty site01:03
xissburgnUboon2Age: those "Deleted partition"s look suspicious01:03
syslqBlueIceVirus: can you choose a device in gstreamer properties01:03
tensorpuddingxissburg: you need to create an entry for Windows 701:03
xissburgtensorpudding: I already have it http://imagebin.org/10971001:03

BlueIceVirussyslq, choices are: Default; nvidia hdmi; and CA0110 Digital01:04
tensorpuddingxissburg: that looks like it could be right01:04
syslqBlueIceVirus: what is now the choosen one01:05
BlueIceVirussyslq, default01:05
tensorpuddingthe only way to know for sure would be to reboot, though that could be risky01:05
syslqBlueIceVirus: does /dev/snd exists?01:05
xissburgtensorpudding: well.. that's what I have to do :P01:05
BlueIceVirussyslq yes01:06

BlueIceVirusheadkase314, did you see my reply?01:06
headkase314syslq, CA0110 Digital is an X-fi device: -> http://www.google.ca/#hl=en&source=hp&q=linux+CA0110+Digital&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=&fp=e152ff60f580dc2601:06

xissburg:)01:07
syslqheadkase314: x-fi?01:07
headkase314syslq, that's what google is saying..01:07
BlueIceVirussyslq headkase314 from what I read, that it is a good sign that I can see that in the options01:07
syslqBlueIceVirus: try and choose it01:07
BlueIceVirussyslq, then test?01:08
syslqBlueIceVirus: yeah01:08
syslqBlueIceVirus: if that doesnt work check the content of /dev/snd dirs01:08
syslqBlueIceVirus: if that doesnt work check the content of /dev/snd dir01:08
tensorpuddingxissburg: is it working?01:08
BlueIceVirussyslq, well no error this time, but I get the testing window with the bar going left to right to left that says click ok to finish, but I dont hear anything01:09
syslqBlueIceVirus: go to /dev/snd dir and check if all device files are in audio group (ls -la)01:09
syslqAlthough then logically there would be access denied error but still01:09
j_dalmondguys, is it possible to make firefox use qt theme instead of gnome?01:10
BlueIceVirussyslq im lost with that last step, I see the snd folder and then what?01:10
headkase314syslq, is it possible that BlueIceVirus has both analog and digital ports on his computer and the speakers are analog and only the digital is showing in gstreamer?01:10
syslqBlueIceVirus: cd /dev/snd01:10

tensorpuddingxissburg: there are probably some major trickeries going on to boot from extended partitions01:39
BlueIceVirusheadkase314 syslq ok let me update and get back01:39
nUboon2Ageoh okay that means that win 7 is different enough mbr doesn't know how to handle it.01:39

tensorpuddingthat will get windows xp booting again01:42

tensorpuddingthat means it worked01:42
xissburgnUboon2Age: I was booting in XP before, directly, without OS choice menu, but after using easybcd the OS menu popped up but none of them worked01:43
tensorpuddingxissburg: i think we messed up when we made the boot options01:44

BlueIceVirusheadkase314 on the part where it wants me to put sudo cp ~/alsa* it tells me a file something.bz2 is not a dir01:47
xissburgI think that...I could copy the important files into another partition and format other and reinstall Windows there..01:47
xissburgat least my files are still there01:47
xissburgjramsey: no01:48

alvaroI'm trying to get HDMI audio to work.  But all I get when I do "mplayer /foo/bar/file.mp3" is static.  Any ideas?01:48
st__xissburg, boot from floppy01:48
xissburgI got to use easybcd before in XP there...after that I couldnt boot again01:48
headkase314BlueIceVirus, was away now back give me a second to review what said01:49
nUboon2Ageone thing xissburg: if you do choose to reinstall win 7 and xp, tensorpudding, doesn't xissburg have to install xp first, then win 7?  i still hope it wouldn't come to that.01:49
headkase314BlueIceVirus, that cp command should copy the three .yar.bz2 files you downloaded into your /usr/src/alsa folder which you should be in.  The files are supposed to be in your /home/username folder and not in a subfolder from there01:51
headkase314s/.yar/.tar01:51

headkase314BlueIceVirus, it is not neccessary to make them in the /usr/src/alsa folder you can follow the instructions in your home folder to compile them there.  How familiar are you with the console?01:53

headkase314BlueIceVirus,  ok, type "cd ~" without quotes01:54
nUboon2Agexissburg: tensorpudding: jramsey:  from that forum posting that jramsey gave i found "If your Windows Vista or Windows 7 bootloader has been damaged or corrupt in some way, you'll have to get it reset before you can use EasyBCD to configure a dual-boot."01:54
nUboon2Agexissburg: tensorpudding: jramsey: http://neosmart.net/wiki/display/EBCD/Recovering+the+Vista+Bootloader+from+the+DVD01:54

jramseyyeah it looks like an evening is ruined with this01:54

Nero_i can not find usefull information...01:54
headkase314BlueIceVirus, type "ls alsa*" without quotes, you should see the three alsa files you downloaded.  ~ is a shortcut for your home folder.01:54

headkase314BlueIceVirus, ok, you will have the 3 folders in your home directory.  For each of the 3 folders execute the commands "./configure", "make", and then "sudo make install"01:57
tensorpuddingxissburg: you'll need to install the build-essential package to compile ms-sys01:57

bastid_raZorNero_: http://nightlies.videolan.org/01:58
headkase314BlueIceVirus, you will be following the cd commands in the tutorial but you are in your home folder instead of /usr/src/alsa.  The difference between the instructions and what you are now doing is that "./configure" and "make" do not need the sudo command while the "make install" does need a sudo prefix.01:58
BlueIceVirusheadcase314 is there a quick way to respond to a person in here rather than type the name every time?01:58

nUboon2AgeWhat about ths tensorpudding: have you heard of fixmbr: "restore the Windows bootloader using "fixmbr" from a recovery CD, and use Parted Magic to delete the Linux partition and expand the Windows partition. " xissburg: tensorpudding; jramsey:01:59

sikilpaakeis there any way to view and mount my partitions through <<ssh -X -C -c blowfish user@192.168.1.102 "gksu nautilus">> ?02:00
headkase314BlueIceVirus, ok, yup.  Now make sure you have no errors from ./configure and make before you type "sudo make install"  If you have any errors post them here02:00
BlueIceVirushiexpo: i finally got lucid installed, but on a diff drive instead of the raid02:00
tensorpuddingnUboon2Age: there is no linux partition, and fixmbr only works for xp mbr's, and only runs from a valid windows xp recovery disk, which xissburg doesn't have02:00
tensorpuddingif xissburg had one, this would have been solved eons ago02:00
BlueIceVirusheadkase314: so if it sayd successfully compiled its good?02:01
dudehello, I am running Lucid and was installing some software from the repos and after I reboted I can not access any websites or the update servers02:01
tensorpuddingthis problem has had very little to do with ubuntu, except that the ubuntu live cd is the only recovery environment available02:01
headkase314BlueIceVirus, if ./configure and make do not give an error message then the compile is good and you can do make install02:01

headkase314BlueIceVirus, and say what the version number is02:09

FshyOK, let me try explaining this again to see if anyone can help a bit more. I know its an extremely vague error.02:09

FshyI'll try and fetch some logs if possible.02:10
dudeMclinux, eth0 shows me connected, I can ping from term, but cant laod webpages or pull anything from repos02:10
vol7ronMcLinux: that worked... thank you very much.  Adobe said I had an up-to-date version of Flash, but Chrome said it wasn't installed.  Perhaps because it was a beta version of chrome, it wasn't installed properly02:10
xissburgsacarlson: runs bad02:10
headkase314BlueIceVirus, ok now "sudo alsaconf" click ok and reboot again.02:10
tensorpuddingvol7ron: chrome doesn't have flash for 64-bit02:10
McLinuxvol7ron: no problem.. i think it had to do with chrome looking in a different location for plugins02:10
tensorpuddingvol7ron: but adobe just says "oh, you have chrome, therefore you have flash"02:10
sacarlsonxissburg: ya bad for you games I'm sure  it would be slow for that02:10
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: ok restarting again02:11
tensorpuddingvol7ron: because adobe is lame and pulled support for 64-bit linux for a while so they could fix it, and at some point in the indefinite future they'll bring it back02:11
vol7rontensorpudding: McLinux's flashplugin-installer enabled it in chrome, so it's working02:11
McLinuxflash doesn't perform great on anything other than Windows.. but it still works02:12

FshyOK, my issue is this. I have an Acer Aspire TimelineX 4820TG laptop, which contains both an Intel graphics card and an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650 graphics chip. The default install used the Intel chip for graphics, but in Hardware Drivers in 10.04, it gave me the option to chose the FGLRX proprietary drives for the ATI card. If I Activate them, it requires me to reboot, at which point I do...02:13
Fshy...so. During startup, I come back in, see the logo, and it black screens after that.02:13
nUboon2Agexissburg: tensorpudding: sounds promising.02:13
vol7ronMy Linux is in VMware, so I'm not too worried about performance just yet.  When I get my new SSD, I'll have a new partition for a full-fledged, sweet linux box02:13

sikilpaakehow can i mount all mountable drives through the command line?02:13
tensorpuddingxissburg: okay, that might be a start..but i'm not sure exactly what it will do, if it know how to find the partitions02:13
FshyIf I use the nomodeset option, I can get back in, however, it says Graphics Error and puts me in this ridiculously lame "low graphics mode", where the ATI chip is most definitely not active.02:13
BlueIceVirusheadkase314: ok now im back again02:13
McLinuxFshy; laptop?  are you using a monitor with it? Hdmi output at all?02:14

FshyAfter that, black screens.02:14
McLinuxsorry, ping* the router02:14

vol7rondude, what are you trying to do?02:15
avi_hey guys, I'm trying to set up a samba server in Lucid to, among other things, share a CD in the computer's cd rom drive. The problem is, that in Lucid CDs get mounted to ~/.gvfs, which for some reason you cannot view in samba shares. I mounted my entire ~ in samba, and looked for .gvfs, but it was NOT THERE. Basically everything was however, including other hidden files.. How can i fix this? Thanks!02:15

Mqueuehello im trying to run partimage to make backup of windows drive and my system keeps freezing what can be the issue ?02:16
FshyMcLinux: No, I installed it fine, and normally it defaults to using the Intel chip, so I had a perfectly good install -- just not using the ATI chip. When I attempt to use the FGLRX drivers to activate the ATI chip, all hell breaks loose though.02:16
dudevol7ron, different computer02:16

spaceghost_man cpan takes ages to install stuff, been installing dependencies for like 35 minutes02:17

tensorpuddingxissburg: the mbr that ms-sys writes must be set to just boot from the first bootable partition02:17
xissburgtensorpudding: heh let me do it02:17
sikilpaakewurlington: that mounts all of the ones on fstab02:17
McLinuxdude, I would check that the browser isn't trying to use a proxy or if there was some firewall configured.. not sure how to "check" for that...02:17
sikilpaakewurlington: i need to mount all the ones that *can* be mounted02:18
xissburgit would be good to at least have xp back02:18

plouffeAre there any open source java browsers in ubuntu repositories?02:18
avi_sacarlson, I can't remember if you did. But the problem is not getting to my home folder, that works great. The problem is .gvfs not showing up when browsing a samba share.02:18
McLinuxdude, repos is downloaded via http.. port 8002:18
vol7rondude: shutdown, then restart your computer02:18

vol7rondude: shutdown your firewalls and restart your computer, also check for proxies as McLinux stated02:19
grumboanyone here use merge? (the tool for merging conflicting files)02:19
McLinuxFshy; that's a bit.. Fshy ;)  Have you had it working under a previous Linux install?02:19

plouffeFshy thanks for the headsups02:19
FshyMcLinux -- nope. Just went with ubuntu 10.04. I know its not just me though.02:20
vol7rongrumbo: merge or comparing differences or git/merge?02:20
tensorpuddingxissburg: the command for putting the xp mbr on would be ms-sys -m /dev/sda02:20
dudeVol7ron , Mclinux, have rebooted a number of times, both computers running through same router and switch, have power cycled everything, changed cables02:20
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: well I picked analog and clicked test, no sound, and pushed ok and now its froze02:20
dudeI will check for proxies02:20
grumbovol7ron: i'm using it for git's mergetool command02:20
McLinuxdude, this is a home network right? not corporate, or whatever?02:20
dudecorrect02:20
FshyMcLinux: There's one other dude with the issue in the ubuntu forums, but he gave up since he didn't know how to use nomodeset, and just reinstalled the entire OS.02:20
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, are your speakers analog or spdif?02:20
avi_sacarlson, CDs get mounted at /~/.gvfs And the entire .gvfs directory is missing when accessing via samba.02:21
blackstar256haha02:21
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: i have both pluged in02:21
vol7rondude: how many connection are allowed through the router?  I know that's unlikely cause, but if you have a lot of computers and only allow 5 connections, you may have maxed out.02:21
McLinuxFshy; I have an ATI card, I had trouble getting it to boot.. eventually sat down, plugged my PC into my monitor using a VGA cable.. installed the driver, configured it to display on the correct display and rebooted.. works now.02:21
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, what do you mean "froze" complete computer (and you are on a different one) or just that window?02:21
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: just that one02:21
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: have to close the terminal to get it to close02:21
FshyMcLinux: *frowns*...a little impractical given where I am at present...but if that were the case, shouldn't nomodeset be able to access the ATI config settings?02:22
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, ok type "xkill" in a console and click on the frozen window02:22
sacarlsonavi_:  can you create a sym link to the file maybe then it will see it?  make sure the sym link isn't .something   the "." makes hiden files02:22
vol7rongrumbo: i'm not too familiar, since I haven't had the need yet, but what's the problem?02:22
FshyWhich...needless to say, errors out when tried.02:22
dudeMclinux, vol7ron, I was browsing internet and saw I needed to reboot the system because of an update, did so, and when it came back up I couldn't access anything02:22
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, type "gstreamer-properties" again and try the digital and click test02:22
avi_sacarlson, Yeah, that was my next move. I'll try and let you know.02:22
McLinuxFshy; don't know... i tried nomodeset myself, didn't work, I freaked out since this was on a brand new PC :)02:22
halvorsI want to run an executable file when Ubuntu start, how do that? At a server.02:22
FshyHm....02:23

grumbovol7ron: well, it's apparently supposed to have handy buttons for determining which file's changes to use in the merged result... but it doesn't, at least on my system. I get the three columns and the diff highlighting, but no buttons to pick which changes to use, as seen in the screen shot here: (the buttons being the arrows) http://meld.sourceforge.net/meld_preview.png02:23

bryan_my CD drive likes playing keep away....it ejects, I reach for the CD, and it says "Sike!" and pulls back02:25
McLinuxFshy; yuck!  All I can say is your symptoms matches mine.  Though it may not be the same exact problem for you... It boots, displays Ubuntu logo (even displays the scrolling text if I remove "quiet nosplash" from GRUB boot)02:25
FshyIts annoying me, since I'm usually pretty good at smacking stuff around til it works. I fixed the headphone jack with ALSA, fixed the stupid wifi issue...02:25
McLinuxFshy; once it appears to want o boot GDM, it blinks out... and appears to freeze02:25
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, ok, we're back to step one except now you have the latest version of ALSA.  I'm sorry but this is the limits of my knowledge.  So, hopefully someone else will be able to help us continue.  If you end up coming back at a later time - if it's not solved in this session - make sure to mention you have updated ALSA.  There may be no solution to that hardware, I'm hoping there is and we just don't02:25

StravHi. It seems I need some help getting grub2 recon my windows 7 install. I just reinstalled grub2 with my root linux partition as grub root install dir, then chrooted into my install to "update-grub2" and yet, no windows installation found. Then I suspected I might have overwritten the mbr while playing with grub's install options so I went in my windows install disk, fixed the mbr, tried to install/update grub again, still no windows02:33
Stravfound. Next step, I tried entering a manual entry in /etc/grub.d/ as 11_windows, with hd(0,3) (where 3 = /dev/sda3 where is the windows mbr) and still, no luck. Any one can help on that...?02:33
headkase314tensorpudding, using bcdedit.exe in wine sounds... well... Are you sure about that?02:33

BookmanOk, anyone else without a hate for poker.  Can you suggest a site that works with Ubuntu?02:52
Licuadoraok, thank you02:52
vol7rondude: did it work?02:52
ilovefairuzLicuadora: they get shipped with the kernel, so if we didn't find a workaround, you'll have to wait for a kernel update that fixes it02:52
bastid_raZorhalvors: add the command to /etc/rc.local   ;use the full path to the command.02:52
headkase314Bookman, try "/join #ubuntu-offtopic" and ask there02:52
ilovefairuzLicuadora: also, pastebin: /var/log/messages02:53
peepingtompmp6nl: It's not an issue if you're selective about what configuration files you move back, just move back what you feel is necessary. Stuff in your home folder is always safe, you can't ruin a whole system with that stuff02:53

dudevol7ron, I still cant connect but it recognizes the eth0 now02:53

headkase314cystic, which games?02:55
TheAnswer:O LIESSSSSS02:55
dudecystic, try nexuiz02:55
Wispringuse wine cystic02:55
peepingtompmp6nl: Well that really depends what you've made changes to. If it's just userland stuff like firefox profiles and the like, lots of gnome applications store their settings in your home folder at ~/.config and some apps store them at ~/.nameofprogram02:55
cysticpacman, air combat, 3d chess02:55
bastid_raZorhalvors: yes, have 'exit 0' as the last line. add everything above it.  also make usre that /home/ss/executablefile has the executable permissions02:55
sacarlsonBaKKaR: don't you have admin priv?02:55

dudeok02:56
Wispringcystic use wine and run windows games02:56
halvorsYes it have02:56
pmp6nlpeepingtom:  ok, thanks for the info.  Also, do you have an idea why a kernel would suddenly stop working properly or how I could go about recompiling an ubuntu kernel02:56
halvorsBut how do this using terminal02:56
halvorsAlso how save edited file in vi02:56
ilovefairuzLicuadora: to easily paste it: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && sudo pastebinit /var/log/messages02:56
BaKKaRsacarlson, yes i do have admin priv but the thing is, how to setup a permission for that directory for the installer to work. can you help me with that pls as a starter02:56
Licuadorailovefairuz: how do i do that var/log thing?02:56
xissburgnUboon2Age: repairing XP install02:56
sacarlsonBaKKaR: I think you need to setup the config dir to 777 to start setup security after it installs02:56
nUboon2Agexissburg: i was just giving that page again because when you go to burn a windows recovery disk you'd need those links or ones like them.02:56
peepingtompmp6nl: unless a program asks for you to type in your password before you makes changes to settings, those settings are stored in your home folder in those "hidden" dot folders. To see them in nautilus (gnome file browser), press ctrl+h02:57
Bookmanilovefairuz, did you get burned by online poker once?  I don't understand the excitement you seem to have over a simple question.  It it technical.  As with any other program.  Which one works with Ubuntu?02:57
peepingtompmp6nl: As for recompiling, you almost certainly don't need to do that. What broke, exactly? does it just not boot after grub?02:57
BaKKaRsacarlson, so is it like #>chmod +777 directory-name, just like this?02:57
bastid_raZorhalvors: you need to edit the file with sudo and to save and quit type :wq   in vim02:57

BookmanWispring, yes03:01
pmp6nlIts a friends computer, an I3 processor based computer which seems to have issues with ubuntu.  We updated to 2.6.32-24-generic kernel and everything worked perfectly.  One day everything stopped working.  I am not sure if she did something or not, but we are trying to find a kernmel that will actually work with the hardware.  No its 10.0403:02

WispringBookman chk your conference thing03:02
dudevol7ron, correct, I went into prefs and shut it down that way, and killed the auto start03:02

nUboon2AgeBookman: i was just googling around for "ubuntu, on-line poker"03:04

BaKKaRsacarlson, lemme take a second look as well03:05
vol7rondude: based on your ifconfig, it looks like your eth0 connection setting was good... I think going to your router page would have given you more information if you were truely connected and just your firewall was blocking your traffic03:05

bastid_raZorhalvors: you're welcome03:05

bazhangBookman, jpoker is in the repos03:05
dudevoltron, router setup was aok. it was all on the local machine03:05
peepingtompmp6nl: I have no idea, the only stuff you can do to screw up an Ubuntu kernel is to either install one of those "backports" packages which are newer kernel-modules (hardware drivers) that are ported to an older version of ubuntu (and they usually work fine). The other thing is to try and compile your own kernel modules, replacing some files with the ones that came with Ubuntu packages. So if you want to find out if it's an actual kernel pr03:05
DmstrdjBookman: that is plentiful here03:06
headkase314Bookman, I suggest you listen to bazhang as he is an operator here03:06
vol7rondude: router may have been fine, but you can check the devices that are connected to the router on the router itself03:06
BlueIceVirus_any one able to help me with my sound card problems?03:06
vol7rondude: if you found your MAC address there, then you know the problem wasn't with your network interface03:06
dudevol7ron, ifconfig doesnt have cast 192.168.1.255 now hmm, why would that be03:06
nUboon2AgeBookman: i think there was a bit of misunderstanding.  This is a bit a a stress environment where folks are trying to answer technical questions about ubuntu, and sometimes the stress and the definition of 'what is technical ubuntu question' can lead to misunderstandings.03:06
Bookmanbazhang, yes but is there anything comparable to poker stars or the like?03:06
dudevoltron ic re:router03:06
peepingtompmp6nl: Like when Ubuntu installs a new version of the kernel, it keeps the old ones. And all the kernel modules for different kernels live in their own folders, so if you were to for example try to compile your own modules and screw something up, it would generally only affect the kernel that's currently running.03:07
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: So if I had a diff X-FI card then i wouldnt have these problems?03:07
pmp6nlpeepingtom:  is there some reason that uninstalling and reinstalling that kernel does not fix the issue?  Is there a way I can just download the kernel sources separately and compile them my self03:07
BookmannUboon2Age, If that is the case, forgiven.03:07
bazhangBookman, perhaps via wine if that is a windows game; check the appdb and join #winehq03:07
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: like a standard soundblaster card vs the msi ver that came with my mobo?03:07
bazhang!appdb | Bookman03:07
ubottuBookman: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org - Join #winehq for application help03:07
vol7rondude: not sure, but you can make it broadcast that :)03:07
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, I think if you had a different card your chances of having working audio would be greater - yes what comes with the mobo is a good candidate to try.03:07
Bookmanbazhang, see, perfect help with no animosity.  Love it!03:08
dudevol7ron, hmm interesting if I am thinking the same thing03:08
BaKKaRsacarlson, no symplinks there. Just the installation directory03:08
bazhangBookman, apt-cache search poker turns up some others as well03:08
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, I think that because of the page I dug up (lost the link now) which talks about the x-fi specifically having issues under Ubuntu.03:08
vol7rondude: if it's not broke, don't fix it... but it is good to understand03:08
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: the card I have now is the one that came with my mobo.03:08
Dmstrdjany chance the new 10.10 would be able to usetilize an ati radeon video card03:09
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, so there is no onboard sound for your mobo or the x-fi is onboard?03:09
Wispringanyone here familiar with getting sound to work in winxp under VirtualBox under Ubuntu?this is quite a technical question IMHO.03:09
xissburgI'm back, had to reset this machine03:09
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: i did read that the guy in the page you found was talking about the msi version, which is what I have03:09
Bookmanbazhang, thanks again.  Let me check those out.  No bad words needed!03:09
Dmstrdjhaha, use*03:09
nUboon2Agexissburg: how's it going?03:09
bazhangDmstrdj, #ubuntu+1 for maverick support/discussion03:09
pmp6nlwispring: what have you tried?  Should work by default03:09
Dmstrdjbazhang: k thanks i look around there03:10
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: no on board audio,03:10
bazhangWispring, you may also wish to ask in #vbox03:10
Wispringbazhang..thanks that's the kind of answere i needed03:11
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, if it comes down to it would you be willing to spend like $15 and get a generic card for audio?  I know it's not an x-fi but x-fi is really about gaming and there isn't much commercial high-end gaming on Ubuntu?03:11
peepingtompmp6nl: You probably won't see any benefit from compiling one yourself versus installing the binary packages that are available though. The reason people do that is to add patches or use newer kernels than are supplied with Ubuntu. Have you tried booting to an earlier version of the kernel to see if it's actually a kernel problem? 'cause it's probably not an issue with the kernel, but some stuff in userland. Did everything break at once?03:11
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=prodmbspec&maincat_no=1&cat2_no=171&cat3_no=537&prod_no=143803:11

nUboon2Agegood xissburg. very good.03:12
=== GLaDUS is now known as _GLaDOS_
=== bullgard_ is now known as bullgard
pmp6nlpeepingtom:  since she got the computer it has had problems running ubuntu (this was a commone thread on ubuntuforums).  Some kernels would allow for this, others that, and finally the one I am speaking of worked with everything.03:12
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, yeah theres no audio on that spec sheet so you have an x-fi add-in card.  Stay clear of USB audio!  Get a realtek add-in card - basic audio that works fine under Ubuntu03:12
peepingtompmp6nl: Also as for why uninstal/reinstalling kernel packages didn't work, were you trying to reinstall the kernel package that you were currently using, or did you boot into an earlier one to reinstall the latest kernel, or could you maybe have by mistake only uninstalled/reinstalled an older version of the kernel that wasn't in use?03:12
peepingtompmp6nl: But it's a regular ubuntu install and it just randomly broke one day, right?03:13
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: Oh, ok no usb audio. Check ;)03:13
peepingtompmp6nl: What im saying is that it's an issue caused by an update to the ubuntu kernel, you can easily boot to the older version by holding shift at boot and picking it at grub03:13
peepingtompmp6nl: if booting to an older version doesn't fix it, you don't have a kernel issue :)03:14
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, yup, usb audio is as big a can of worms as your current x-fi!  Google whatever you decide to purchase + "ubuntu" and choose something that either has no negative links or has positive links03:14
peepingtompmp6nl: and then you could easily reinstall without format and put your files back as we discussed earleir03:14
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: well like you said, all i need is simple audio for linux03:15
pmp6nlpeepingtom: All kernels have had issues.  Just different issues with each kernel (ie: wireless, power management, screen flicker). The most recent kernel fixed all of these issues for a few days then it randomly stopped working properly03:15
LicuadoraDoes anyone knows what does this means?03:15
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, you can also check the Linux hardware compatibility list -> http://www.linux-drivers.org/03:15
Licuadorahttp://ubuntu.pastebin.com/9004uBXJ03:15
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, yup basic audio is absolutely fine.03:15

BlueIceVirus_headkase314: my current card is on this list :/?03:17
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: !!!!03:17
peepingtomJordan_U: I meant for the restricted stuff like nvidia proprietary drivers, am I wrong?03:17
nUboon2Agexissburg: except instead of 'vista' just replace with 'win 7'03:17
peepingtomJordan_U: specifically the ubuntu-supplied proprietary binary driver modules03:17
pmp6nlpeepingtom: I cant recall, its on a friends computer.  But if it does I have tried it both ways.  Just not sure why this particular model is having all these issues and why the one kernel just stopped working03:17
xissburgnUboon2Age: I got some (old) CDRWs. I'll try to burn it on them03:18
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, here is ALSA compatible hardware -> http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Main Technically your card is on the list but it obviously shouldn't be.  I have realtek cards and fine those work like champs!03:18
headkase314s/fine/find03:18
_GLaDOS_Ah, I like these types of support channels03:18
_GLaDOS_Users helping other users03:18
Bookmanheadkase314, I was not doing anything wrong with my question.  I had it answered correctly before being reported for abuse.  I have no idea why you did that.03:18
manu__hello ubuntu people03:19
headkase314Bookman, whatever - its over.03:19
Jordan_Upeepingtom: Ubuntu uses DKMS, which builds the drivers (or rather, the glue portion of them) when you install a new kernel. If the proprietary drivers are compatible with the version of the kernel you are installing at all, then they should work as long as you install the header package.03:19
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: well the other thing is  I only have a pcie x1 slot03:19
=== edwedewd is now known as happydays
macoheadkase314: realtek is one of a dozen companies making codecs for azelia (hda) audio chips.  each company has many many codecs & revisions of those though, so unless you're looking at a list of subsystem vendor id's paired with codec revisions...03:19
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: i dont have reagular pci slots avail03:19
Bookmanheadkase314, no it is not.  I still do not know why you did what you did.  I asked a simple question.03:19
nUboon2AgeBookman: just a misunderstanding i think.  let's move forward. :)03:20
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, a sound card is pretty low on requirements I think you could find one to go in a pcie x1 slot?03:20
peepingtomJordan_U: So this is from a time before DKMS was implemented in Ubuntu? https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2009-February/000542.html03:20
macoBlueIceVirus_: keep in mind they make usb sound cards for like $1003:20
BlueIceVirus_maco: we already decided usb is a no go :)03:21
headkase314maco, how troublesome are USB sound cards in Linux - I have a bad feeling about them?03:21
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: im looking at newegg for pcie cards and they are only creatives and auzuretech03:21
macoheadkase314: the guy that did ubuntu audio for years and years has two that work fine...  usb headsets are also usb sound cards (built into them) and i have one of those and its fine03:21
pmp6nlpeepingtom:  would I just go to http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ and try a new kernel and see what happens?  Use the package installer to install them then select that version in grub?03:22
tensorpuddingxissburg: did those instructions help?03:22
macoheadkase314: he actually recommended to one of our friends today "just go pick up a $10 usb sound card at best buy" with no mention of specific models to watch for03:22
headkase314maco what is the exact brand you could recommend to BlueIceVirus_ ?03:22
BookmannUboon2Age, I just want to make sure that everyone understands that i asked a legit question.  No matter how harsh the help was at the beginning.03:22
peepingtompmp6nl: Yup, no harm done if it doesn't work03:22
macoheadkase314: i have the impression they are very well supported03:22

pmp6nlpeepingtom: so its that easy, just use the gdebi package installer for both the image and headers?03:23
peepingtompmp6nl: It says theyre made for 10.10 maverick but I dont see why it wouldnt work with Lucid03:23
peepingtompmp6nl: Yup, I went through a similar thing with my laptop in Feb and it worked for me03:23
HB2hi somebody know why sometimes the flash objects turns "gray  color" ????03:23
macoheadkase314: probably :)  most stores will let you return if it doesnt work in linux anyway. ive checked with microcenter and best buy on that, and they both said they'll take back for *any* reason in the first month03:23
pmp6nlpeepingtom:  Thank you very much for your help, I will have her try various kernels and see what works.  I really appreciate your help!03:24
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, got maco's comment about returning?  Inquire about that pre-purchase and you only lose your time worst-case?03:24
peepingtompmp6nl: Just to clarify, did you ever have to install any drivers using the Ubuntu "hardware drivers" "Restricted driver" thing?03:24
peepingtompmp6nl: no problem btw, good luck!03:24
=== alexander__ is now known as Lap_dragon
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: sounds like an idea03:24
pmp6nlpeepingtom:  I do not think so, but I cant remember (its on a friends computer).  will it matter with new kernels?03:25
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, keep asking questions!  Everyone here is better to recommend than just me! ;)03:25
nUboon2AgeBookman: yes i understand.  it is unfortunate, but true that problem does come up semi-frequently.  i don't quite know how to solve it.  bazhang is one of the operators and seems to understand your questions in the context they were intended so maybe having a chat with bazhang might be helpful.  its kind of a cultural issue with this channel.  people are a little tense at times and sometimes push the panic button a little03:25
macoBlueIceVirus_: in the meantime, whatever's wrong with your audio driver, please report a bug :)  ubuntu-bug -s audio03:25
nUboon2Agequickly.03:25
peepingtompmp6nl: Well that's what I was wondering, that Jordan_U guy said its not an issue but Ive read documentation that says there are no restricted modules in mainline builds03:25
macoBookman: bazhang has already said in #ubuntu-ops that its just a misunderstanding and folks shouldnt worry about you03:25
BookmannUboon2Age, Nice to know.  It would be nice to have the others admit.  No worries.03:26
HB2hi somebody know why sometimes the flash objects turns "gray  color" ???? I'm using Flash player 10 and nspluginwrapper 1.3 on amd64 arch =/ I HATE FUCKING FLASH !!!!!03:26
ilovefairuzmaco: posting poker websites links here is VERY questionable at the very lest03:26
macoHB2: watch your language03:26
headkase314Bookman, ok - know I have that experience if it happens again.  grumble grumble, sorry.03:26
pmp6nlpeepingtom:  ok.  I suppose it wouldnt hurt to install the kernel and see what happens... I can always switch back03:26
peepingtompmp6nl: But lots of hardware has open source drivers now. Also just for future reference, you don't have to recompile a whole kernel to compile a module03:26
macoilovefairuz: well if they were related to the question... but i wasnt here at the time03:26
BlueIceVirus_maco: done ;)03:26
macoBlueIceVirus_: thank you!03:27
nUboon2Agexissburg: those instructions wouldn't require getting the recovery dvd, but of course at some point you'll want/need it.03:27
bazhangBookman, and others, lets move on please03:27
peepingtompmp6nl: Like many drivers arent built into the kernel itself because they're so crappy that the Linux develpers won't let the code merge with theirs03:27
Bookmanbazhang, done.  Just a learning experience I hope! Understanding!03:27
peepingtompmp6nl: That's why Ubuntu has the restricted modules, and also for proprietary drivers03:27
xissburgnUboon2Age: the recovery DVD is to try to recover Win703:27
xissburgnow that the partitions are ok03:28
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: well i have another issue, freakin adobe flash isnt working03:28
bazhangBookman, PM please03:28
pmp6nlpeepingtom:  on the new kernel wont I have an option to select restricted drivers?03:28
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, flash not working as in at all or only when you try to click on it?03:28
peepingtompmp6nl: er maybe not "restricted modules" for open source stuff that isnt in the kernel, but thats why Ubuntu has to add some drivers in separately03:28
nUboon2Ageso to clarify xissburg there are two paths we are talking about here.  1) the http://neosmart.net/wiki/display/EBCD/Recovering+the+Vista+Bootloader+with+EasyBCD03:28
peepingtompmp6nl: No idea, Jordan_U said so but https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2009-February/000542.html says no, hopefully you can :)03:28
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: well im using chrome. and sites are asking me to install the latest, but its supposedly already in chrome03:29
pmp6nlpeepingtom:  oh ok.  Thanks I will give it a whirl and see.  I really appreciate your help!!!03:29
nUboon2Agexissburg: that one doesn't require the recovery DVD and may/should fix the bootloader menu.03:29

bullgardHow can I determine if the program Rhythmbox depends on Avahi or Avahi depends on Rhythmbox?03:29
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, it is in chrome - I know that for a fact, sorry maybe the sites are not coded properly?  Does youtube work fine without errors?03:29
manu__if any of it syas an error03:30
nUboon2Agexissburg: 2) is only if you cannot boot into any version of Microsoft Windows.03:30
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: let me try03:30
peepingtombullgard: Avahi doesnt depend on rhythmbox03:30
mrman208!rhythmbox | bullgard03:30
ubottubullgard: Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Listen, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, Exaile, XMMS2 (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine - See also !codecs03:30
ZykoticK9BlueIceVirus_, i don't think the Chrome with flash built-in, is on linux yet (i could be wrong).  Try installing flash non-free or whatever it's called these days ;)  I get mine from ubuntu-restricted-extras.03:30
nUboon2Agexissburg: they recommend doing #1 first.03:30
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, I know for a fact because I saw a Chrome update the other day and consciously checked my flash version in Chrome, installed the update, checked flash again: and my flash version was higher.  So, it's a fact.03:31
McLinuxNot booting into any version fo MS windows isn't neccessarily a Bad Thing(tm)03:31
mj8741Hi all: what program do I need to convert avi files to mp4?  thanks03:31
nUboon2Agexissburg: 2) if that doesn't work for some reason or you can't boot into windows (and i don't see why you wouldn't be able to now that you know you can recover XP)03:31
bryanwithyI'm getting a lot of errors on youtube and other flash sites with Chrome, but not firefox....03:31
xissburgnUboon2Age: we tried #1, it failed03:31
bazhangmj8741, handbrake03:31
nUboon2Agexissburg: not really03:32
ZykoticK9headkase314, you really should consider using Chromium over Chrome - just for the open source, reporting bugs in ubuntu fact.  Only an opion - please don't take offence :)03:32
BlueIceVirus_ZykoticK9: well ill give it a try anyeay03:32
xissburg:)03:32
mj8741bazhang: is that in Ubuntu repository?03:32
nUboon2Agexissburg: we didn't follow those instructions note for note i don't think.03:32
xissburgnUboon2Age: it failed...after that I coudn't boot again03:32
headkase314ZykoticK9, you are correct Chromium should be used over Chrome - I have no excuse ;)03:32
ZykoticK9headkase314, s/opion/opinion03:32
xissburgnUboon2Age: hm...we must be more careful this tiem03:32
xissburg*time03:32
nUboon2Agexissburg: but we weren't following those instructions.  we were trying to guess from memory.03:33
bullgardpeepingtom: How can I review myself if your statement: "Avahi doesnt depend on rhythmbox" is true or false?03:33
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!03:33
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: bluetooth audio ;)03:33
bryanwithy:o03:33
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, ?? You got audio now?03:33
xissburgnUboon2Age: which instructions?03:33
bryanwithycongrats!03:33
bazhangmj8741, in a PPA as well as their website03:33
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: over bluetooth03:33
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: dont need a soundcard for that03:33
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, w00t! ;)03:33
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: better than nothing ;)03:34

nUboon2Agexissburg: these ones.  just substitute Win X7 wherever it says Vista:  http://neosmart.net/wiki/display/EBCD/Recovering+the+Vista+Bootloader+with+EasyBCD03:34
edjuEverything I've seen so far tells me that an iPhone is recognized by 10.04 out of the box.  Well, it isn't.  Not asking for a how-to here - but anyone have a pointer to a guide for the simple-minded?03:34
BlueIceVirus_headkase314: brb need to restart browser03:34
headkase314BlueIceVirus_, so does youtube work for flash?03:34
ZykoticK9mj8741, i certainly second bazhang's handbrake suggestion, if you want MP4.03:34
xissburgoooh I sseee03:34
peepingtomIs cryptd module related to ecryptfs?03:34
nUboon2Agexissburg: so that's #103:34
peepingtombullgard: Right-click and properties on the package in synaptic, or dpkg --help in terminal03:35
peepingtomie. I dunno how to do it with dpkg but that'll tell you how03:35
Rafihello anybody can help me? i forget my irc password. How can I get it back??03:35
nUboon2Agexissburg: 2) requires making a Win 7 recovery DVD so you'll need to be able to burn DVDs.  That's here:  http://neosmart.net/wiki/display/EBCD/Recovering+the+Vista+Bootloader+from+the+DVD03:35
ZykoticK9Rafi, you might want to try #freenode i believe.  Good luck.03:36
rsvpwhich keys will SWITCH DESKS 1 through 4 ??03:36
Rafithanks zykoticK903:36
xissburgnUboon2Age: I can do it now I think, but not  a DVD, a CD...the Win 7 Recovery iso is 160MB big03:37
magicianlordrsvp: window key + e03:37
ZykoticK9nUboon2Age, xissburg could you please move the "Windows" talk to PM or ##windows ;)  Thanks.03:37

headkase314magicianlord, that is the default expo key in compiz however I don't know which keys they are by default to go straight to a particular desktop03:38
bazhangxissburg, offtopic here03:38
nUboon2AgeZykoticK9: please don't start in.  This is extremely ubuntu related.03:38
peepingtomedju: ipod touch suport generally comes from libgpod03:38
bazhangxissburg, try ##windows03:38
peepingtomedju: How "not working" is it?03:38
bazhangnUboon2Age, its at the windows support stage. ##windows please03:38
xissburgZykoticK9: everything start after I installed ubuntu using Wubi from Win7...that's why I'm here.03:39
macopeepingtom: no ipod touch needs libifuse and libusbmuxd but those should be on a default install03:39
xissburgit trashed my boot loader03:39
nomadHI03:39
nomadi have a waxing crescent03:39
rsvpmagicianlord, what window key?03:39
magicianlordheadkase314: not sure. i don't use gnome much03:39
macoedju: keep in mind you have to use the itouch for one sync with itunes before you use it on ubuntu03:39
nUboon2AgeZykoticK9: bazhang xissburg using ubuntu to try to recover.03:39
bazhangnomad, does that relate to Ubuntu?03:39
magicianlordrsvp: between spacebar and control03:39
nomadpossibly03:39
bazhangnomad, explain03:40
headkase314magicianlord, I'm on a Windows machine too at the moment so I can't pop into Compiz Settings Manager to see what the defaults are.03:40
macomagicianlord: could be a pc101 keyboard.. no windows key on that03:40
edjupeepingtom, I have libgpod.  Well I plug it in, and no icon, no nothing.  Though dmesg shows it.03:40
nomadwell03:40
xissburgZykoticK9: bazhang this problem involves all OSes around ;)03:40
nomadwhen i went into osmo it told me i had a waxing crescent03:40
Jordan_Upeepingtom: I'm using a mainline kernel with the standard nvidia package right now. Since that mail mentions linux-restricted-modules, which no longer exists as a package, it must be from before the switch to DKMS.03:40
bazhangnomad, okay nothing to do with Ubuntu; #ubuntu-offtopic please03:40
nomadoh ok03:40
headkase314rsvp, if you use compiz for your desktop install compiz settings manager and it will be under System > Preferences.  There you can set keyboard shortcuts to particular desktops03:40
edjupeepingtom, I have to use it w/ itunes first?03:41
IdleOneZykoticK9: let it go :)03:41

nomadvideo games are at times more difficult than real life03:43
IdleOneZykoticK9: :) no worries03:43
headkase314rsvp, if you use compiz and install it's settings manager you can make the key combinations anything you would like.  Compiz is *highly* configurable and its all done through an easy graphic user interface.03:43
tom__when xwindows starts G41 chipset doesn't recognise vga connection and defaults to dvi i guess03:43

headkase314blueicevirus, to get flash in ff03:53

LinuxFetusHey I have Ubuntu 10.04 32 bit.  How do I install Eclipse Helios?03:56
blueiceviruswhat is eclipse helios?03:57
murlidhara game i think.03:57
LinuxFetusmurlidhar: No.03:57
murlidharsounds like a game name though03:58
LinuxFetusblueicevirus: Eclipse is one of the more popular Java IDE's (if not the most popular?).  Helios is the most recent version.03:58
blueicevirusIDE?03:58
FshyLinuxFetus -- I used the zip version.03:58
LinuxFetusblueicevirus: Integrated Developer Environment.  It's what programmers use instead of editing things from like gedit or something.03:58
bazhang!ide | blueicevirus03:58
ubottublueicevirus: Programming editors/suites: Terminal-based: vi/vim, emacs - KDE: Kate, KDevelop, Quanta+, Umbrello - GNOME: gvim, gedit, anjuta, pida, monodevelop, geany - Others: eclipse, netbeans, qtcreator03:58
FshyYou can then replace the default(Europa?) by changing it there.03:58
FshyThe ubuntu repo's don't actually have Helios.03:59
murlidharblueicevirus: integrated development environment ? ide !03:59
nUboon2Agexissburg: what does ff mean?03:59
blueicevirusLOL ok03:59
murlidharnUboon2Age: firefox03:59
nUboon2AgeFshy: i just had to go to eclipse.org to get helios.03:59
FshySo go to their site and get the compressed version, extract, and, if you feel like it, replace the app data stuff with Helios.04:00
blueicevirushow do i install a bz2 file04:00
nUboon2Agemurlidhar: oh thank you. :) xissburg04:00
LinuxFetusFshy: That didn't quite make sense... But I'll try and do it.04:00
FshynUboon2Age -- sure, but thats only runnable from the extracted folder or from a shortcut.04:00
blueicevirusi dled ff as a bz2 file, but there is no ./configure04:00
FshyYou know what, I'm not making sense to anyone but myself.04:00
murlidharmention not nUboon2Age04:00
FshyJust go to their site and get the compressed version, and extract.04:00
nUboon2AgeFshy: yes i think you're right.04:00
sacarlsonbebo_mz: most of us here don't use antivirus since it's not a problem in linux/ubuntu it's a windows thing04:00
headkase314blueicevirus, what kind of bz2 file? Source code, icons, window frames?04:00
FshyIsn't that a packaged file?04:01
nUboon2AgeFshy: in other words when you evoke it you have to give an explicit path, yes?04:01
LinuxFetusFshy: I'm downloading the tar.gz file right now.  I don't know what's in it exactly.04:01
blueicevirusheadkase314: glad your back. i downloaded firefox and it gave me a bz2 file04:01
xissburgwhat lool04:01
FshyEverything, LinuxFetus.04:01
FshyJust extract it to a folder, and there'll be a runnable file in there.04:02
peepingtomblueicevirus: Don't do that.04:02
FshynuBoon2Age -- correct.04:02
headkase314blueicevirus, oops saw ff after ;) ff should be installed by default with Ubuntu.  There are ppa's for later versions but really do not recommend them - you should stay with the default install.04:02
peepingtomblueicevirus: Do you just want a cutting edge version?04:02
headkase314blueicevirus, Should be under: Applications > Internet > Firefox04:02
FshyAlthough I personally wouldn't have used vocabulary that suggested a medieval atmosphere myself, NUBoon2Age :P04:02
blueiceviruspeepingtom: no, i removed ff earlier ;?04:02
peepingtomhttps://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/+archive/ppa04:02
LinuxFetusFshy: So is it like Windows, then -- self-contained into one folder?  I'm not familiar with the file structure in Linux -- what gets stored in /home /etc /boot /dev /usr or whatever directories there are.  Are you saying I just need to extract it to a common directory and everything will be runnable from that directory?   That's the way it is in Windows... you just extract the folder and run eclipse.exe.04:03
bebo_mzsacarlson : i usr it because in my network they use windows and i was use windows but now ubuntu 10.04 but i use clamav for scan my flash momery and any thing i take it from my network04:03
headkase314blueicevirus, be warned if you install the ppa it could break on a bad update and you'll have to wait for the next update to hopefully fix it.04:03
xissburgtensorpudding: nUboon2Age now I have Win 7 booting :DD04:03

xissburgtensorpudding:  nUboon2Age easyBCD failed in the first try...it trashed the boot again...the Win 7 Recovery disc did it in *one click*04:04
ZykoticK9blueicevirus, i think headkase314's comment is accurate, but "harsh".  PPAs are very handy, if you want/need more up-to-date software on Ubuntu.04:04
xissburgBUT04:04
sacarlsonbebo_mz: maybe something like this freshclam04:04
xissburgnow I can't boot in Win XP and Ubuntu :x04:05
headkase314ZykoticK9, I'm a fan of ppa's just not for firefox ;)04:05
LinuxFetusFshy: McLinux: Well I have access to root and I can sudo...   What's the Linux equiv of "Program Files"  I figure I can extract it there... should I chmod anything?04:05
nUboon2Agexissburg: okay, good to know.04:05
=== JuttyMire is now known as Maser
ZykoticK9headkase314, actually i used to have problems with firefox's PPA as well (don't use FX anymore)04:05
McLinuxthere are many strategies, one would be to create /usr/local/eclipse and chmod it so it is available to all users04:05
blueicevirusheadkase314: ?04:05
bebo_mzsacarlson :freshclam i know that is that in to clamav04:05
xissburgwell 7 is my main OS here. But now...to fix the others.. oh well...I think I can let it to another day :)04:06
LinuxFetusMcLinux: Isn't there a /usr/share ?04:06
headkase314blueicevirus, specify ?04:06
headkase314;)04:06
blueicevirusIm not getting pms if you guys are sending them04:06
sacarlsonbebo_mz: yes thats the command you run to update the database for clamav04:06
McLinuxLinuxFetus: it varies by flavor, but yes. the idea is /usr/** is user domain stuff.04:06
=== easter_egg|off is now known as easter_egg
xissburgits quite funny to look at it now...after every thing, pushing youy guys knowledge and skills to the limit...the Win 7 Recovery CD did the job in *on click* :/04:07
sacarlsonbebo_mz: normaly it's setup in crontab to auto run at intervals04:07
McLinuxi'm not actually an expert on ubuntu itself04:07
McLinuxit's just what i run  now, so i'm here04:07
blueicevirusheadkase314: well back to square one with sound, Im not getting sound from ff or chrome04:07
muelliwell McLinux, LinuxFetus. It'd better be /usr/local/. "/usr/" does not stand for "user" but rather "unix system resources".04:07
xissburgwell, I have to say thank you very much, lots of guys helped but specially tensorpudding  and nUboon2Age. I can't believe how helpful you guys are04:08
tensorpuddingmuelli: pretty sure that's a backronym04:08
bebo_mzsacarlson : so i write sudo apt-get upgrade freshclam to upgrade clamav engine04:08
LinuxFetusmuelli: What does "local" refer to, then?04:08
McLinuxmuelli: thanks, so /usr/local/share, it is04:08
headkase314blueicevirus, I think if you want to stick with Ubuntu the best thing you can do is crack open the case pull out the x-fi and put in any old generic sound card.  I really think that would be the solution to the woes.04:08
tensorpuddingit used to be that user accounts were under /usr04:08
tensorpuddingin systems like plan 9, they still are04:09
McLinuxThere are no laws, you could install things in /opt/*** if you desired, as long as you configured the correct perms, and setup the symlinks04:09
sacarlsonbebo_mz: no to upgrade the clamav engine i think it's just apt-get install clamav04:09
xissburgdo you guys think that if I uninstall ubuntu (Wubi) it will trash the boot again?04:09
LinuxFetusMcLinux: I figured there weren't "laws"  I just wanted to keep things logically organized.04:09
headkase314blueicevirus, just responded to the pm you sent - I don't know how long it was there unnoticed!  Shouldn't really pm, see this next line:04:09
headkase314!pm04:09
ubottuPlease 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.04:09
tensorpuddingxissburg: i don't think so04:09
muelliwell McLinux. Again, you'd rather not overwrite files put there by the system^tm, i.e. by any installed package. So pretty much everything except /home/, /usr/local/ or /opt/ is out.04:10
LinuxFetusIs ubottu a bot?04:10
nUboon2Agexissburg: one thing that is very notable about all the ubuntu irc channels and the ubuntuforums.org in my experience is the extremely patient and helpful approach people take.  and it can be a "pass it forward" kind of experience, so now that you've been helped hopefully you will come back and help others.04:10
xissburgtensorpudding: I'll do it now then lol...I cant boot in Ubuntu nor XP now, only 704:10
IdleOneLinuxFetus: yes ubottu is a bot04:10
tensorpuddingxissburg: you can configure the bootmanager using easybcd, and create entries for them04:10
bebo_mzsacarlson : i aredy install it clamav and calmtk04:10
blueicevirusLOL, i found all my pms from you guys. at the menu bar have to click the envalope04:10
McLinuxLinuxFetus: My personal habit has beent o install user based stuff to /usr/share or /usr/local such as perosnally compiled, etc... and barring that.. going to /opt (e.g. /opt/SomeSoftware)04:10
LinuxFetusmuelli: So are you saying that those 3 directories are not overwritten by the system and therefore are safe to put something like this?04:11
blueicevirusheadkase314: ok04:11
muelliLinuxFetus: yes.04:11
sacarlsonbebo_mz: yes and if there is a newer version then it will install that too04:11
headkase314blueicevirus, ok too ;)04:11
xissburgnUboon2Age: I love to be able to help, in this sense I don't have much experience so I usually am not capable of delivering a high quality and advanced help as you guys can04:11
xissburgbut as I learn more I help more04:11
blueicevirusheadkase314: anyway, im done fking with ubuntu for the day. back to windows and play some SC2 :) thaks for the help04:12
magicianlordis there a solution to the blinking cursor problem in netbook remix maverick that causes it to not boot?04:12
headkase314blueicevirus, you're welcome! Hope you come back regularly ;)04:12
xissburgtensorpudding: do you think that if I do this using EasyBCD in Win7 I can get the boot to work right for the 3 OSes?04:12
blueicevirusheadkase314: will do04:12
muellimagicianlord: most likely ;-)04:12
bebo_mzsacarlson:http://pastebin.com/YG3F9DEF04:12
rwwmagicianlord: Maverick support is in #ubuntu+104:12
=== Lap_dragon is now known as sleepinglapdrago
magicianlordthanks04:13
muellimagicianlord: Try to boot without the "quite" parameter. Edit your boot line in GRUB, probably by hitting delete to get into GRUB und then and "e" to edit your boot line. Remove "quite" and try to boot.04:13
sacarlsonbebo_mz: see your already up todate so all you need is to run freshclam04:13
rwwmuelli: it's spelled "quiet"04:13
muellioh. maverick. sorry04:13
LinuxFetusMcLinux: muelli: What's the command to extract a tar.gz file to a specified directory?  I figure I'm gonna have to sudo this since my /usr folder has a lock on this... and it's good for me to know the CLI, I figure, anyway.04:14
muellirww: thanks. you're right. magicianlord ^^04:14
nUboon2Agexissburg: no i still doubt wubi was really the problem.  if you run install or uninstall wubi the most it could do is confuse the bootloader, but now you have a quick recovery for that.  Also i think you should be able to use easybcd (or other tools, but i think easybcd should work fine now from win 7) to fix the bootloader menu so that it properly can address and start XP.04:14
muelliLinuxFetus: well. the simples thing to do is "cd directory; tar xvf /path/to/file.tar.gz"04:14
LinuxFetusmuelli: xvf?04:14
headkase314LinuxFetus, I would recommend extracting helios in your home folder like -> /home/username/programs/helios <- you can run it from there fine and don't need to worry about permissions04:14
muelliLinuxFetus: do a "man tar" to get an explanation.04:15
newbiei need help with nvidia drivers please04:15
JetPackTuxedoHas anyone played around with some of rythmbox's CI?04:15
xissburgnUboon2Age: I'll try that now since now Im secure that I can (probably) recover it using the Win 7 Recovery disc :004:15
JetPackTuxedo*CLI04:15
bebo_mzsacarlson : but when i open clamtk it's write antivirus engine 0.96.1 is outdate and theres new v 0.96.204:15
LinuxFetusmuelli: I did that before I asked... I'm just not familiar with options that don't involve hypens.04:15
rwwLinuxFetus: extract (x) the following file (f) and give verbose output (v)04:15
muelliLinuxFetus: nevermind. tar is very old and doesn't follow new age hyphenation rules ;-)04:15
rwwLinuxFetus: see the DESCRIPTION section. The hypen is optional for tar options04:15
Dr_Willisbebo_mz:  yes. the thing updates so much - the version in the repos quickly gets 'old' but the program shuld still update teh virus definitions - thats the imporntant part.04:16

justin_does anyone have a suggestion for a 3d online game for linux that is similar to modern warfare 204:17
LinuxFetusmuelli: is xfv shorthand for -x -f -v ?04:17
sacarlsonbebo_mz: that's just the graphical front end to the clamav but you can apt-get install clamtk  also if you want the latist04:17

justakillhey is the're a liferea irc channel?04:18
xissburgnUboon2Age: I read somewhere that there is/was a bug in Wubi where after the installation of a specific update in Ubuntu it would possibly trash the boot loader. Its exactly what happened to me04:18
itai_michaelsonhi - i just installed amarok and no sound comes out of it, it appears to be playing but i cant hear anything, VLC plays the same tracks fine04:18
Dr_WillisGHH:  theres other photo editing apps out there. but i never bother with them.   no idea what you mean by 'desiging software'04:19

justakilljoin #liferea04:20
justakilloops04:20
muelliLinuxFetus: yeah. As I'm saying. There are old school tools like tar, dd, ... which behave not very nice ;-) But you'll figure out. Once you learn the power of man pages, you'll be fine :o)04:20
Dr_WillisGHH:  check the package manager, and the getdeb web site.. and perhaps some other linux software sites. There proberly tools out there that do what you want. but tjhey may not be in the default repos.04:20

num-lockHi my HDD went out no big deal. I rma it. But for now I installed ubuntu 9.04 to a usb 16gb stick and it seems this older pc cant boot from it. It sees it. Its just not in the bios options or under the qucik boot menu. Can I boot in to the live cd then boot in to the usb install of ubuntu? If so how its been a while since I played with sudo and such.04:27
xissburgnUboon2Age: but it was what happened to me...before I install the bunch o ubuntu updates the boot loader was working perfectly. after installing it trashed everything04:27
sacarlsonLinuxFetus: oh those are the repositories that can be setup in synaptic04:27
LinuxFetussacarlson: Right, this isn't in a repository.04:27
McLinuxLinuxFetus; You'd do a "New Menu" for a new sub-folder or "New Item" for a new entry.  Sometimes if you compile/install a new app it is required if you want things to appear nice prim and proper.04:27
toniushello! How turn off autostart transmission-daemon ?04:27
nUboon2Agexissburg: oh, so there were some updates that seemed to be related to the onset of the problem, eh?  interesting.04:28
justin_excuse me, what is the terminal command to edit the grub list, or take partitions out of the list that i dont use04:28
muellitonius: execute gnome-session-properties. It's probably listed there.04:28
sacarlsonLinuxFetus: you lost me.  what package are you tring to load?04:28
McLinuxThis is one instance where they need to borrow from Windows and make it a folder.04:28
headkase314LinuxFetus, you can add extra repositories with the "add-apt-repository <PPA>" command PPA's are Personal Package Archives.  They are used to get extra software.  Of course this does not apply to Helios you are installing right now.04:28

McLinuxVi works, everywhere..04:29
headkase314tonius, also check: System > Preferences > Startup Applications04:29
xissburgnUboon2Age: yes. After reading this post I got to suspect that it happened *because* of the updates. I don't know what but one of them was something about grub...it asked me if I wanted to install or not, and said it was recommended to install and so on...I did it of course04:29
nUboon2Agejustin_: nano is a simple easy to use editor.04:30
McLinuxwhere Vi may abandon you, you must speak 'ed'.04:30

nUboon2Agexissburg: i opened a private chat w/ you...04:39
ColbyLudwigbut it still happened.04:40
sacarlsonnewbie: so you tried System>Administration>hardware drivers ?04:40
prince_jammystonymahoon: ah, ~/.shh is special. try '' chmod 700 ~/.ssh ''04:40
prince_jammys*.ssh04:40
newbieohh yes and also gone through countless threads but still cant do it04:40
JoshDreamlandI want my IPAQ PDA to communicate with Ubuntu. Some guide says I need USBnet. Will I need to recompile the kernel for that?04:41

xomphello, trying to install mybb locally but get the error "MyBB requires one or more suitable database extensions to be installed. Your server reported that none were available." anyone know what this means and how to fix?04:41
newbiei even tried going through  init 3 sudo sh nvidia-linux.run04:41
xompI have LAMP installed and everything is up-to-date04:41
tonymahoonprince_jammys: hmm it's still refusing the key04:41
headkase314newbie, have you gone to: System > Preferences > Appearance and under "Desktop Effects" tried to enable them?04:42
prince_jammystonymahoon: my id_rsa.pub in ~/.ssh has permissions 644, my ~/.ssh has 700.04:42
sacarlsonnewbie: then you must have gone to nvidia web site and tried there latist released linux drivers04:42
tonymahoonprince_jammys: i'll give that a go04:42
newbieyes also tried latest nvidia website drivers04:43
flameshave a backtrack channel?04:43
rwwflames: #backtrack-linux04:43
ColbyLudwigxomp: do you have MySQL installed?04:43
headkase314newbie, installing the drivers from nvidia's website can cause issue when a kernel update comes around.  It is much better to stick with the "Hardware Drivers" drivers to avoid that issue.04:43
flamesthank Rww04:43
xompColbyLudwig, yes, LAMP is installed.04:44
ColbyLudwigxomp: Odd.04:44

muellikadim: well. You might be able to give root=/dev/sdb1 or whatever your USB pendrive is for the kernel boot parameteres04:56
prince_jammystonymahoon: well, if my permissions are a "model", you could reproduce them with '' chmod 700 ~/.ssh; chmod 644 ~/.ssh/*; chmod 600 ~/.ssh/id_rsa ''04:56
muellikadim: that'll still boot the initrd and the kernel off the CDROM but everything past that should be based on your pendrive.04:57

ARGGGim going to install 9.10 in hopes that it will be compatable with my ATI Radeon x1300 grapics card will i beable to install it on my slave drive?05:13
LinuxFetusARGGG: Feel free to ignore if I jumped in on the conversation and my advice is rubbish, but you can install various OS's on different partitions....05:16
LinuxFetusARGGG: There is no need to install one on a separate drive, unless you're trying to operate drives simultaneously for speed/performance.05:16
LinuxFetusQuestion:  I'05:17
ARGGGthank you05:17
LinuxFetusARGGG: Chances are GParted isn't installed, but you cannot edit a partition that you're currently using.  So unless you can shrink a partition that isn't being used to run your current distro, then run Ubuntu Live to edit the partitions.  GParted is pretty straight-forward and simple to use.05:18
LinuxFetusQuestion:  I'm on Ubuntu 10.04.  At the top of my Desktop, I have the standard Gnome panel (Applications, Places, System, etc.).  I have several applications next to System, but they're all really close together.  Is there a way to change the minimum distance in pixels between the icons?  Sometime I click on the wrong application (I'm using a touchpad on a laptop... I don't like to use a USB mouse because it will detract from my USB05:20

infidi have 64bit ubuntu and hulu.com is saying hulu player doesn't work in 64-bit versions of flash, gotta be kidding me. Can i still have a 32-bit version of flash installed next to my 64bit version?05:21
karpushi, my friend who's running windows, her OS was borked, and possibly one of her harddrives too (I don't know, haven't seen the HDD yet), the problem is that she's using a RAID0 config, meaning all the data is spread out over the two drives, would it be possible to boot from an ubuntu live cd and try to mount the hdd? I don't know much about raid0, and even less with linux05:21
ARGGGso with the live cd i can partition my slave drive on install and not lose any data that i may have saved : LinuxFetus05:21
vivisecterHey could someone help me upgrade from 8.04 to 10.04 without the use of internet and off a CD?05:22
vivisecterI've yet to find documentation on the forums.05:22
LinuxFetusARGGG: GParted doesn't erase data unless you tell it to format your partition/drive.  You can resize the partition that's being used by your current distro and run another parallel... unless you want to use your other drive for some reason.05:22
LinuxFetusvivisecter: I assume that another media (i.e. USB) isn't available to you?05:23
vivisecterUnfortunately no it's my parents computer and it's only able to connect to wifi in 10.04 but it won't install 10.04 from the live CD but will install 8.04.05:23
LinuxFetusvivisecter: Have you tried http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade05:24
LinuxFetusIt give instructions for a network upgrade from 8.04 to 10.0405:24
vivisecterSee why couldn't I find that earlier I'll give it a shot and see what happens.05:24
Jordan_Uvivisecter: Before you go that route, what happens when you try to install 10.04?05:24
vivisecterIt hangs up usually at about 56% and will not go any further.05:25
LinuxFetusI used the query "upgrade ubuntu without cd" on Google and it was the first result.05:25
vivisecterWell I have the CD but no network access.05:25
LinuxFetusvivisecter: Perhaps there is another issue going on and a network upgrade wouldn't fix it.05:25
LinuxFetusNetwork access == WiFi, methinks.05:25
vivisecterYou would be correct.05:25
vivisecterLike I said 10.04 works flawlessly with the WiFi 8.04 won't even try to connect.05:26
LinuxFetusvivisecter: Oh, so you're saying that when you run 10.04 live, you can connect to WiFi, but you can't install 10.04.  When you install 8.04, you can't connect to WiFi?05:27
vivisecterYeah.05:27
vivisecterSorry if I cobbled it earlier.05:27
Jordan_Uvivisecter: What step does the installer say it's on when it freezes?05:27
rwwvivisecter: upgrading 8.04 to 10.04 without Internet access? Try the alternate CD or ISO, per https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades section "Upgrading Using the Alternate CD/DVD"05:27
vivisecterCopying new files.05:27
thune3karpus: i'm running on a system that has a raid-1 fake/software raid setup which I don't use for ubuntu, i'm on 9.10 and the system sees it as two seperate drives. However, when I pop in 10.04 cd, it detects it as a raid-1 array and offers to mount it as such automatically (though I have never doen so).05:28
Jordan_Uvivisecter: Try installing via the alternate install CD, if it fails you can also use it as an upgrade CD (but I really suggest trying to install via the alternate CD first).05:28
JoshDreamlandI've taken several steps now to try to connect my PocketPC to Ubuntu. Why isn't Ubuntu acknowledging its existence in any way?05:28
Jordan_Uvivisecter: You can't use the normal LiveCD as an upgrade CD.05:28
JimBastard_which is better out of the box for a high traffic web server? Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) or Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) ? sorry if that is a noob request, im a noob.05:28
vivisecterThat could be where my problem was coming from.05:29
RandomNerdKarelI have been in and out of Linux the last few years, used to have favourite audio player but there seems to be a few other options these days. Any personal preferences out there?05:29
rwwJimBastard_: 10.04. Using a non-LTS on a server and thus having to upgrade it every 6 months would be a pain.05:29
Jordan_UJimBastard_: Use 10.04, simply because it's LTS (and the latest release)05:29
JimBastard_what does TLS stand for?05:29
rww!lts05:29
ubottuLTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04)05:29
FalsAlarmanyone ever hear of software that can recover data from a sata hdd that doesn't show up at POST?05:29

karpusthune3: ok, maybe I'll ask her to burn a live cd, it doesn't hurt to try since she basically tried everything, if that doesn't work, her choice is to send it to a data recovery company, the problem is that they charge between €30000 to €500000 lol05:31

Jordan_Ukarpus: I'm sure you already know this, and have told your friend, but having critical data without a backup is careless. Having that data on RAID0 is asking for trouble.05:33
karpusshe only stored documents and photos on it, so I can't seem to figure out why she stores important data to her on those drives... no backup either, but I guess she learned a lesson from this05:33

ubottufredo: If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script. Alternatively, try http://apt.alturl.com/ - See also !APTonCD05:39
LinuxFetusARGGG: GRUB can be configured to have a background of your choosing, various resolutions (granted your GPU and monitor support said settings), you can re-arrange the menu items (generally an installation of a distro will add 4 items -- two kernel settings and two memtests) additionally it installs the most recent OS at the top, and you may wish to rearrange the order and change the delay (i.e. if nothing is selected in __ seconds, a05:39

Dr_WillisJust got a laptop with an eSATA port. I plugged in an external HD that has esata and USB conectors.. but esata dident seem to work with it. The HD dident even sound like it spun up. Is there somthing im missing here? it should be plug and play just like USB right?05:43
Aemaethhaha, i'm surfing from my phone05:47
SlartDr_Willis: not sure about power supply.. but yes.. otherwise my eSATA drive functions the same as an USB drive05:47

Dr_WillisI finally have a use for these cables i dident know what it was for. :) This laptop also has a weird 'port' its a USB and eSata in one.. It may be theres some way to toggle it to be one or the other. (checking the manuals Now)05:49

hipitihopwhen building from source, is the ubuntu way to ./configure, make and make install from some home dir or should git source be moved to /usr/src ?07:59
well_laid_lawn!checkinstall | hipitihop07:59
ubottuhipitihop: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!07:59
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, thanks will go and read, is that the recommended way regardless of what I'm building from source ? e.g. I'm want to build FreeSwitch after doing a git clone of source to a subdir off my home08:01
well_laid_lawnhipitihop: I use 'cause it lets me uninstall apps I make easily08:02
well_laid_lawnhipitihop: in ./configure -help it will tell you the path the app will install to - normally /usr/local - and in the configure options is where you set the install path08:04
well_laid_lawn -prefix=/usr as an example08:04
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, so far not done much from source, so sorry if I'm asking basic questions. Are you saying I need to edit original ./configure downloaded with source ?08:06
well_laid_lawnhipitihop: no - there are options you can add to ./configure like   ./configure -prefix=/usr   - ./configure -help will tell what's available as options08:08

Dr_WillisJust curious if anyone has used esata as a boot disk befor with ubuntu or linux?08:10
well_laid_lawnhipitihop: normally /usr/bin for user apps08:10
kooshahii. is there any gnome software to get google reader feeds?08:10
well_laid_lawnhipitihop: /usr/local might not be in your $PATH08:11
Dr_Williskoosha:  i think theres some google applets (gadgets?) that can do that. Not sure about other ways08:11
kooshaok thank you08:11
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, hmm, so if I'm trying to make something like FreeSwitch on a mythbuntu where my userid is the auto logged in user, then I shoul dbe ok with default location ?08:12

well_laid_lawnhipitihop: I make my apps in my home dir then install the deb08:15
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, thanks for the checkinstall tip, but I don't think you answered the initial question which is if I did a git clone to a subdir of my home, should I move the source to /usr/src before make etc08:15

ubottubryanwithy, please see my private message08:16
well_laid_lawnhipitihop: sorry - I make everything in my home dir - never use /usr/src08:17
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, cool thanks08:17
well_laid_lawn:]08:17
Aemaethoh wow, fspot didn't crash at 10,000 this time08:18
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, final question, I hope, when given steps like ,configure, make and make install, do I need sudo in those steps or after I have package ready08:19
macohipitihop: only make install needs sudo, and only if you didnt add --prefix=$HOME/local to your ./configure08:19
well_laid_lawnhipitihop: if it involves install you need sudo - no sudo needed for configure or make08:20
macohipitihop: thats because make install does the actual installation wherever the prefix is set to, and the default prefix is /usr/local/08:20
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, ok and 'make install' is still relevant even though checkinstall builds package ? (guess I should read the docs now, bugged you enough ;-)08:21
RookieStarhi, ppl08:21
well_laid_lawnhipitihop: instead of make install do   sudo checkinstall08:21
RookieStarnow i got a big problem08:21
RookieStari installed ubuntu 10.04, but cant get into desktop08:22
RookieStaronly something like tty1 the command lines08:22

RookieStarpls help, thanks08:22
RookieStari tried some setting in BIOS like turn on/off APIC/VIRUS, but no help08:23
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, indeed ... unfortunately failing in first step 'auto-apt run .configure' getting "E: Exec .configure failed, auto-apt failed"08:23
RookieStari googled and did some typing like startx or something, but no help 208:24
RookieStar:(08:24

Suit_Of_Sableshmm is there a way to manualy edit the colors gtk in xfce rather than just downloading and installing themes? I could do it in gnome. sorry  the xfce channel has been dead for hours08:26
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, I did 'git clone git://git.freeswitch.org/freeswitch.git' while in ~/git-source08:26
well_laid_lawnRookieStar: log into the tty and do   cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -i ee   and see what is the issue08:26
RookieStarthanks, i will do that, a sec08:27
well_laid_lawnhipitihop: you'll have to check with the apps website for a faq or readme08:28
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, so while in ~/git-source/freeswitch I did 'auto-apt run ./configure' ... http://www.voipkb.com/wiki/index.php/Install:Linux#Ubuntu08:29
RookieStar<well_laid_lawn: no such file or directory08:29
well_laid_lawnRookieStar: which ubuntu are you using/08:31
well_laid_lawn?*08:32
RookieStar<well_laid_lawn> 10.0408:32
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, any chance using auto-apt in a ssh session is causing a problem ?08:32
RookieStarnewly install08:32

well_laid_lawnhipitihop: you need to be one dir lower - cd freeswitch-1.0.608:33

alabdGood day all , what was the name of that software that could possible to schedule relaxation times when we are working with PC08:37
RookieStar<well_laid_lawn> so? :(08:37
rwwalabd: there's a setting that'll do it in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard (I think; I'm not in GNOME right now). There's also the 'workrave' package, which does a similar thing.08:39
RookieStar<well_laid_lawn>oh! i c, internet, ok08:40
dhirajanyone there to help me out..?08:40
alabdrww, thanks08:41
well_laid_lawnhipitihop:  the ./ part of ./configure means the current dir so there needs to be a configure file in the current dir08:41
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, there is a configure.in at the top level which has #                                               -*- Autoconf -*- # Process this file with autoconf to produce a configure script.08:42
RookieStar<well_laid_lawn>i've got the internet on, and tried again "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop", but it still cant find the package08:43
rwwsudo apt-get update08:44
dov@dhiraj:  it looks like gnome can't do it yet, but kde can.  Check this out:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=49941&page=2 for a script that might work for you in gnome08:44
well_laid_lawnhipitihop: sorry but I've never used automake - the sites howto seems straightforward just have to adjust the dirs accordingly08:44
RookieStarok, i try that08:44
rwwubottu: tab08:45
ubottuYou can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.08:45
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, yes seems so, just confused why the git based source seems to not correspond08:45
RookieStar<well_laid_lawn>i think it cant get the internet cause it even cannot ping any site08:46
well_laid_lawnhipitihop: have youused autoconf to make the configure script as suggested from the file?08:46
dhiraj@dov: thank you for the thread...but it seems that the script is for XFCE08:47
dhirajnot for gnome08:47
well_laid_lawnRookieStar: sounds like lots have gone wrong with your install - did you do the cd check?08:47
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, no I have not08:48
occamsRZRWhoop whoop08:48
RookieStar<well_laid_lawn>i installed it from hard disk08:48
well_laid_lawnhipitihop: I don't know how to use autoconf but it sounds like you need to run it08:48
RookieStar<well_laid_lawn>when installing, i cut the internet wire off08:48
well_laid_lawnhipitihop: and that should get the needed configure script08:49
RookieStarshould i update AMD ATI thingy?08:50
dovdhiraj, sorry about that.  Maybe I'll take a crack at converting that script next weekend.  Have you checked to see if gnome-shell (gnome 3) will include that feature?  I think it's due to be released in a couple of weeks08:51
hipitihopwell_laid_lawn, yes you are on teh right track, some minor errors when it ran.. unfortanelty now get following from 'auto-apt run ./configure' "cannot find install-sh, install.sh, or shtool in build/config "."/build/config"08:53
dovdhiraj, did you try #gnome?08:53

Guest78691and unless it all works well and runs sshd again, i'm locked out?10:08
c3lnobarking: go to firefox settings and tick the box to always ask where to save files10:08
nobarkingc3l: i think it has to do with the Qt file dialog tweak Kubuntu does out of the box...10:09
rwwGuest78691: assuming that you don't have local console access, correct. I personally wouldn't recommend doing a release upgrade over ssh.10:09

Guest78691is there a good guide on setting up a webserver with ftp? i did it all manually last time and it was slightly annoying. surely there must be an ubuntu guide with the best way of doing everything (LAMP + FTP)10:11
rwwubottu: lamp10:11
ubottuLAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)10:11
rwwI don't know about the FTP side of things. I use SFTP instead.10:11
Guest78691i did use that initially, but found it really slow10:12
c3lGuest78691: thats what id do :)10:12
Guest78691although I got into a whole lot of trouble from using unsecured ftp in cambodia (fail) so would be keen to give sftp another go10:12

Guest78691how would you transfer files using ssh from the local host10:13

Guest78691ftp has all these draw backs, but it's supported by so many apps10:14
rwwServerTech: there's no such thing as a "sudo pass". sudo asks for your user password.10:14
Guest78691destination is from my mac to the server10:14

Kwpolskac3l: what?10:16
Guest78691ah true, it can. i love how it can mount the destination as well10:16
c3lKwpolska: cant he just use scp?10:17
Guest78691c3l: that wouldn't work as the command would be fun on the remote machine, it doesn't have access to the local files10:17
Kwpolskac3l: he can.10:17
c3lyes he can scp user@remote.com:/path/file /local/path10:17
Kwpolskabut I am actually not sure if he can mount it somewhere by scp10:17
c3las long as the ssh server is running at remote10:18
c3lKwpolska: do you need to mount it?10:18
c3lthen use sshfs10:18
c3lit might be easier if you got many files10:18

gimpy283I installed Ubuntu Server 10.04 then loaded the ubuntu-desktop package.  This works but not to my TV.  I have installed the proprietary nvidia drivers, lowered my resolution, adjusted other settings such as sync, but every time it boots, as soon as it gets to where the desktop should come up, my TV stops displaying it.  Any ideas?10:22
Dr_Willisghufran:  see what teh file, or ffprobe command say about the file. and run vlc from a terminal and see if it mentions any video codecs.10:22
Dr_Willisgimpy283:  Use the nvidia settings tool and enable the tv out. Ive had nvidia cards int eh past that default to the TV (svideo) out  when they boot up. BUT once the nvidia drivers startup the tv turns off. Unless its configured tobe the default device10:23

ghufranDr_Willis, it says unsupported codec. i wonder which codec it is talking about..10:27

rwwivers: however, the point of it appears to be that Linux uses memory for caching and releases that memory if another program needs it, which is correct. However, your original question mentioned swap. The swap isn't generally used for caching because it's slow, and caching data from the hard disk on the hard disk is rather pointless.11:07
rwwhence, as I said, caching in memory and not caching in swap are intended behavior.11:07
iversrww: yeah I dont get it why they use swap. As my laptop, I don't have swap since its 6 gb memory11:08
appi_uppiHi, ubuntu performance has slow down. How do i troubleshoot it to fix?11:08

Sushiloverok, thx, bbl12:40
kloolussI'm on Kamic 64bit btw12:41
Dr_Willisklooluss:  use gparted and repartition it how you want.  Its odd a exteranl USB hd would have a reserved partition12:41
oom8ailklooluss: if you do not need any data on the disk, use something like # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX bs=1M count=512:41
Dr_Willisklooluss:  be sure that 10gb partition is unmounted also. many tools refuse to work on a mounted filesystem12:41
normaluserDr_Willis: nah many do to store backupapps and stuff like that12:41
oom8ailklooluss: then you may partition it with fdisk12:41
kloolussDr_Willis: It's designed for Windows & Macs, the small partition had some .exes and things on it. I think you're supposed to do it all from Windows.12:42

lhavelundDr_Willis: Correct.12:42
airtonixhariom, define "latest updates"12:42
Dr_Willislhavelund:  theres some options to do it.. last i used that was years and years ago..  somthing to watch out for are permissions and ownerships getting lost. You may want to 'tar' the stuff first.12:43
Dr_Willislhavelund:  i cant recall the recursive 'put' option for ftp really.. I much perfer scp thesed ays12:43
hariomI guess the 10.04LTS comes with 2.2.14 Apache2 and current stable is 2.2.1612:44
lhavelundDr_Willis: I'm just trying to copy over an entire /home partition right now; I'm having to re-do my server. I'll gladly have to manually sort out permissions etc. later, but for now, this is all I have.12:44

airtonixhariom, you either  : 1. find an apt repository with the latest version packaged for you. or 2) you compile it yourself.12:44
Dr_Willislhavelund:  or use a gui to ftp :) if cli only 'mc' can do it...  been ages sicne i did that also12:45
lhavelundDr_Willis: I'm just going to check mc's docs; might be a good way to go about it. Thanks!12:45

lhavelundDr_Willis: mc is pretty simple :)12:46
Dr_Willisyea. but how you enter the  ftp:// stuff - is what i dont rember12:46
hariomDr_Willis: so in reality it is not out of the box to get security updates for apache ? sudo apt-get update and then dist-upgrade is not helping12:46
lhavelundDr_Willis: ftp://user:pass@location, I suppose.12:46

tyler_drazz1: I have used realvnc the past 5 years and find it extremely easy to use and secure.13:47
tensorpuddingvnc can be protected through ssh tunneling, though good luck installing an ssh server on windows13:47
slacker-adminewb: oh dear, ubuntuforums suggests installing ubuntu-desktop and logging in to gnome, change the panel there and log back into the netbook wm13:47
tensorpuddingthere is some encryption available on a few vnc servers13:47
tensorpuddingbut not all clients take advantage of it13:47

Confuziusim talking about moving a physical drive13:49

abhijitrandyrkelly, first make it executable chmod +x ./filenam.bin and then do ./filenam.bin13:50
razz1tensorpudding: tyler_d: or should I just use vistas built in rdp server inside vpn13:50
tensorpuddingConfuzius: moving a physical drive depends heavily on hardware, not software13:50
tyler_drandyrkelly: from a terminal you need to cd to the correct dir then do ./thisisthebinfile.bin ( possibly a chmod +x thisisthebinfile.bin) first13:50
bobo123tyler_d: ok. it is supposed to bookmark all tabs, and do work in Windows.13:50
quibblerrandyrkelly-> look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=23330913:51
tyler_drazz1: I would go ahead and simply do this, rdp is just slow, you have already sort of botched security(though I do love hamachi) so yah, do it13:51
ConfuziusI understand how it works hardware wise, but do i need to unmount the drive before i turn off the computer or will it just sort itself out when it boots up and finds no drive anymore?13:51
cescwhen I switch my pc on... I have the choice to select either ubuntu or windows... among other options on GRUB. How do I sort all this options so windows doesn't appear at the bottom?13:51

abhijitrandyrkelly, you first need to go the the folder in which the file is using cd.13:52
Confuziustensorpudding, thanks13:52
tyler_dConfuzius: it will sort that portion out on the old machine, we will assume your using ext2 or ext 3 on both... you may have to muck with the server and /etc/fstab to get it to automagically mount it on the server13:52

coz_Rob14,  welcome15:06
DasEidigifor: It's a little nervy if you response takes such a long time, could you please answer to my questions ?15:06
coz_Rogue1,    ok system freezes is generally  a video driver issue15:07
N9NUe-meditator: So you can access INET via embedded OS within15:07
coz_Rogue1,  are you sure the video driver is installed properly?15:07
digiforDasEi, it gave me the idea to look in the vlc settings. Ticked the box that says 'Fullscreen' and vlc seems to work without crashing15:07

Rogue1coz_, I'll go take a look, and will be back to you soon :)15:10

oCean_e-meditator: setting a route to a specific ip-address is not the same as creating route to an entire network. In your example you use -net, but you do specify just a single host. That cannot be correct, hence he error msg for the netmask15:11

oCean_e-meditator: ok, setting a default gw should go like this "sudo route add -net default gw 192.168.100.2"  <- this is for a *default* gateway15:13
N9NUif it was connecting before power went bye bye, then his config might have been rudely modded15:13

pheonixmanwhere do i upload them..?15:41
bootfailcoz_: several - same msg each time15:41
headkase314napterk, I don't think so - unless you want your / and /home partitions to be a different file system like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Btrfs because the boot partition must be ext2 - ext4.  If your / and /home partitions are also going to be ext2 - ext4 then there is no need for a separate /boot partition15:41

s5sI have a problem with my graphics driver15:44
coz_bootfail,  oh darn.... mmm  you can try a recover from the live cd  however  at this point is when I generally reinstall15:44
s5sI get random colors on the screen15:44
N9NUto mount USB key: mount /dev/sdc4 /media/usb-key1/  - change sdc4 as needed15:45
s5sATI dropped support for my card so I can only use the 8.593 version of fglrx but I don't think it compiles on newer kernels15:45
headkase314s5s, it's not so much a newer kernal the legacy driver doesn't work with but rather newer versions of the X windowing system that prevents it..15:46
headkase314s/kernal/kernel15:46
bootfailcoz_:so cold booting can corrupt the boot process beyond recovery - that's awful15:46
s5sheadkase314: any advice?15:46
Kanaseros5s: What Graphic chip ?15:46
s5sX140015:47

alsemU9NU is this for me?  to mount USB key: mount /dev/sdc4 /media/usb-key1/  - change sdc4 as needed  If so I don't understand how to do this.  I'm rather new to Linux and Ubuntu.15:47
s5sI want to use the open source driver (R520 for my card I think)15:47
pheonixmanhas anyone seen the screenshot..?15:47
RandyRKellySo is there away that you can install a bin file artistically15:47
RandyRKellyAutomatically15:47
coz_bootfail,  generally no... although like any OS  not properly shutting down can have adverse affects for sure15:48
headkase314s5s, the situation is that really if you want to use Ubuntu 10.04 you have to use the built-in open-source driver.  That one is automatically set up for you on install.  To use the proprietary Ati driver I believe you have to go back to Ubuntu 8.1015:48
bootfailcoz_: agreed, but the crappy one that m$ makes at least allows for recovery...15:48
napterkheadkase314: thank you for the articles. I only take ext4 for the system partitions. I always had /boot on a separate partition but I never understand why this is better.15:48
coz_bootfail,  so does linux... I am a bit puzzled by this one... but  unless someone else has trobuleshooting suggestions  I am at a loss with it15:49
headkase314napterk, the only situation I know of that would require a separate partition for /boot is if you are using a file-system not "baked into" the boot kernal for your other partitions.15:49
s5sheadkase314: hmm I'll go and see what's not working then. I might be the x server itself15:49

headkase314Magkakos, if you're nvidia hardware then I'm certain it's nouveau16:13
Rogue1coz_, froze at 83%, or appeared to - now at 90%,  s o  we'll see what hapens16:13
bazhangxy, just have to !paste | nick to warn them16:13
N9NUalsem: if you wish, make sure your 'automounter' service is running or installed16:13
coz_pheonixman,   then I am puzzled for sure but i will stay logged on to see if someone else has a suggestion16:13
dr3mroasg http://pastebin.com/AGa0za7j16:14
barfoo365HermanDE : I have managed to boot to a terminal prompt with the install CD but am not sure where I should be looking to resolve the issue16:14
coz_Rogue1,  oooo  already a freeze?/  that is not good16:14
alsemN9NU: I did what you suggested and got special device does not exist.16:14
daedalus_Hi, last night I got everything working just fine. I was able to zoom in using shift+scroll wheel. Today that feature doesn't work and I can't find it in the nvidia control configure program ultiliity thing.16:14
pheonixmancoz_, sure but what should i do..?16:14
Magkakosheadkase314, so the the default open driver is nouveau for nvidia. does ubuntu use vesa driver ever?16:14
HermanDEbarfoo365, Have you verified the CD?16:14
barfoo365HermanDE : As in check for errors?16:14
HermanDEbarfoo365, Yep.16:14
coz_pheonixman,  not sure at this point..... maybe someone has another suggestion or...you could try the ##linux channel16:14
roscogruensacarlson: both are ubuntu16:14
barfoo365HermandDE : Yes, no errors.  This is an already established install that has been running fine for several weeks16:15
Rogue1coz_, seems to have passed it - let me choose username, encryption, finished that up - will see what happens now16:15
headkase314Magkakos, you can force the vesa driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf but to give instructions I'd have to google a bit.16:15
coz_Rogue1,   ok16:15
N9NUalsem: ok. im just abt positive your USB is going to use /dev/sdb16:15
barfoo365HermanDE : I am just using the rescue function of the CD to give me a terminal prompt16:15
asgdr3mro: it's part of erlang which you are running16:15
sacarlsonroscogruen: so what protocol have you chosen ssh or samba or other?16:15
roscogruenone is dual booted but only use the non-ubuntu once a year.16:15
N9NUalsem: did you try sdb116:15
Magkakosheadkase314, ok no need16:15
roscogrueni used samba to create a network for the win7 partition of one16:15
HermanDEbarfoo365, Have you tried to disable the ethernet from the bios?16:15
headkase314Magkakos, ok ;)16:16
barfoo365HermanDE : Nope, i'll try it now, 2 secs16:16
roscogruenbut now that i'm running ubuntu partition on it, i can't share files out of it16:16
dr3mroasg what is erlang16:16
asgdr3mro: a programming language16:16
Aiyahow do I make 4 workspace in ubuntu netbook remix version?16:16
N9NUalsem: if yes, then try sdb2  then sdb3  one of em has to work........is this a pre-formatted key?16:16
headkase314dr3mro, a programming language -> http://www.erlang.org/16:16
dr3mroasg i didn't run it16:16
alsemN9NU:  Yup but got same results.16:16
asgdr3mro: something you are running is written in it though16:16
pheonixmancoz_, by the way do you know where are the icons present in the change desktop apperance/customize/icons present..?16:17
asgdr3mro: probably the couchdb stuff above the 'heart' process16:17
Rogue1coz_, got to go to the airport now. Seems to be preparing for software selection/installation, so will let it do it's thing, and continue the install when I get back.16:17
dr3mrook so its not malecious16:17
N9NUthats odd. what error16:17
Magkakosis nouveau better than nv for nvidia cards?16:17
Rogue1coz_, thanks for all your help so far :)16:17
coz_pheonixman,  usually   they are in /usr/share/icons16:17
erUSULMagkakos: it should be16:17
coz_Rogue1,  no problem16:17
asgdr3mro: no, not at all16:17
alsemgentooer:  Loaded the lsscsi program.  I agree I don't think the Razor acts as a mass storage device.16:17
coz_Rogue1,  I am curious if the alternate install works :)16:17
Quantum_Ionpheonixman,  search in /usr/share/icons16:17
N9NUohhhh its a phone?????16:18
Quantum_Ioncd /usr/share/icons16:18
sacarlsonroscogruen: well with samba there are complex security settings to deal with so you should google "samba ubuntu"  with ssh it's just a mater of apt-get install ssh on each and connect as I showed before16:18
MagkakoserUSUL, ok and compared to the old nvidia driver i have to use. (173) would it be better to use nouveau i guess?16:18
roscogrueni thought it was just a simple mount when they both share the same modem16:18
AiyaIs that possible to have ubuntu and ubuntu netbook remix edition on same PC?16:18
erUSULMagkakos: well that i dunno; never used nouveau myself.16:18
Quantum_Ionpheonixman, run this command from terminal #find / -name *.png16:19
headkase314Magkakos, if you are not using your Ubuntu system for 3d games and nouveau does compiz effects for you just fine then nouveau is better.  If you want full 3d functionality then the proprietary nv is better.  Also, you should install the proprietary nv from System > Administration > Hardware Drivers as installing the .run file from nvidia.com can cause issues later when a kernel update comes along.16:19
roscogruenit is a simple process.  just share them.  Buuuut16:19
kn100Magkakos, http://z0r.de/135416:19
alsemN9NU:  if yes, then try sdb2  then sdb3  one of em has to work........is this a pre-formatted key?  what is a pre-formatted key?16:19
kn100Magkakos, sorry, had to, it was relevant. Nouveau is OK but I seriously suggest you get the nvidia drivers16:19
kn100they are infinitely faster16:19
N9NUalsem: i just saw you said Razor....i take that to be a Motorola phone then16:19
sacarlsonroscogruen: on samba?  you have to tell samba what files you want to share.  with ssh it only depends on the user you login.  access any file he can16:19
daniel_b_hi! just installed ubuntu. I'd like to install kubuntu-desktop but that's failing, because deps cant be resolved. (for example for arc. ) Which repos must I have installed?16:20
roscogruenit doesn't have be samba.  just sharing the folders16:20
roscogruenno ssh man.16:20
Magkakoskn100, there are opensource drivers called nv besides nouveau. and there are the proprietary from nvidia16:20
Quantum_Ionroscogruen,  apt-get install ssh16:20
roscogruenno thanks, as i said.16:21
kn100Magkakos, they are no longer supported16:21
barfoo365HermanDE : With ethernet disabled it gets past that point and then gives me this screen http://www.postimage.org/image.php?v=TsBbj1A16:21
N9NUalsem: if it's a phone, then you can use your Gnome or KDE phone apps to connect to it. Your phone may have to be manually 'told' to connect via a command in your phone16:21
kn100Magkakos, Trust me, it's not the best option to use the proprietary system but the performance gain is quite literally 10 fold16:21
roscogruenANYONE:  how do i share a folder w/ another computer on the same router/modem?16:21
N9NUalsem: im just guessing at all this16:21
alsemgentooxer:  Forgiveme but I am also working with N9SU and lost a big part of your messages.  Wish there was a way to filter this so I only get relative information. But Please repeate your requests again.16:22
roscogruenthe folders are shared but the darned drive is not showing up on the other computer.  i think it is a mounting issue16:22
N9NUalsem: i though all this time it was a USB key/thumb drive16:22
DasEiroscogruen: samba is most simple, or just ssh in the other pc16:22
N9NUalsem: continue with gentooxer16:22
Quantum_IonThe Google Chrome Web Browser is definately faster than FireFox, but FireFox is better at downloads to save and pause long downloads16:23
Magkakoskn100, the thing is i damaged my gpu while cleaning it and for some reason, the opensource drivers now work, but i get black screen for the proprietary16:23
gentooxeralsem: why don't you use the private chat?16:23
HermanDEbarfoo365, What is located on ata1?16:23
bastid_raZorroscogruen: you could use ssh to mount them via a GUI.. Places > Connect to Server , then use Method ssh and add a bookmark which will enable you to have the link in Places Menu.16:23
roscogruenDasEi: could you tell me how to mount the drive. so it is seen by the other computer16:23
headkase314Magkakos, if you manually install the .run file from nvidia's website the next time a kernel update comes along for your computer X windows will fail to start and your video driver will be in a broken state - has happened to me.  To avoid this, install the nv driver from System > Administration > Hardware Drivers.  Select the recommended driver there and click on Activate.16:23
kn100Magkakos, that sounds like you damaged something which isn't required for 2d acceleration but is for 3d16:23
alsemN9NU:  How do I tell the phone to connect?  I was following the directions in BitPIM and when they indicated I needed the USB port mounted I found I didn't!16:23
kn100Magkakos, in that case, Nouveau is your only choice16:23
HermanDEbarfoo365, What is located at ata1?16:24
DasEiroscogruen: you set up a folder on one machine, then install samba..16:24
barfoo365HermanDE : ata1 is my IDE drive with the OS install16:24
roscogruendone DasEi16:24
gentooxeralsem: try /dev/ttyUSB16:24
DasEiroscogruen: then change smb.conf to point to that folder16:24

ubottuSamba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT.16:24

Magkakoskn100, ok you said the opensource nv isnt any longer supported?16:25
DasEiroscogruen: for permanent, get put in the share in /etc/fstab16:25
alsemgentooxer:  The answer is 'Command not found'16:25
DasEiroscogruen: igfy16:25
kn100Magkakos, Nvidia no longer develops it16:25

DasEiroscogruen: can ypu ping the other machine ? no fw, same subnet ?16:28
headkase314roscogruen, right-click on the link and choose "open in web-browser"?16:28
roscogruenthx headkase314 .  had no idea that was how it was done16:28
barfoo365HermanDE : Do you think the ethernet failing is a red herring?  Or is it related to the dying drive?16:28
headkase314roscogruen, you're welcome ;)16:28
sacarlsonroscogruen: maybe test with ssh and you'll see if the problem is network comunication problem or security settings in samba16:29

HaPK_PerCarI can't connect wireless, or cabled for that matter... what can I do?17:46
Dug__ive seen them17:46
MuelliHaPK_PerCar: plug the cable in :>17:46
Dug__they dont help it doesnt state the problem i get17:46
Muellimd-llyr: check nautilus preferences. Thumbnails might be disabled for files bigger than x.17:46
coz_md-llyr,   mm  that should be under  Edit preferences17:46
Dug__i only have small problem i just need a small bit of help from someone who knows what they are doing :(17:47
HaPK_PerCarMuelli, it is in...17:47
coz_md-llyr,  go under nautius...Edit... Preferences....Preview tab17:47

HaPK_PerCarubuntu simply won't recognize it17:47
Dug__my problem isnt being able to hear sound17:47
Dug__its recording sound with my microphone17:47
md-llyrThanks! Will check that right now. Oddly, it works when browsing my /home folders17:47
Dug__can somebody help please or atleast point me in the right direction ?17:47
MuelliHaPK_PerCar: hm. maybe you're using some weird chipset. Can you pastebin the output of "ifconfig -a"?17:48
MuelliDug__: what exactly is the problem?17:48
coz_md-llyr,  there is a pull down to show thumbnails "always"17:48
Dug__my microphone will record sound but when it plays back it has a lot of interference noise with it17:48
coz_md-llyr,  also be aware that when opening the windows drive  especially with videos it may take a short while for the thumbnails to show up17:48
Dug__and the sound it plays back is breaking up and hard to make out17:48
pheonixmancoz_, got any luck..?17:49
MuelliDug__: hm. maybe check with alsamixer whether the levels are way too high or anything.17:49
coz_pheonixman,  still not fixed??17:49
pheonixmancoz_, nope17:49
sacarlsonHaPK_PerCar: I use wicd with wireless it's cool for setup.  apt-get install wicd  ,  but your problem could be in your driver or maybe in your accesspoint or router17:49
Dug__hmm alsamixer is part of pulseaudio ?17:49
MuelliDug__: nope17:49
coz_pheonixman,  oh my... and did you try the ##linux channel ?17:49
Dug__hmm I should have installed this ?17:49
pheonixmancoz_, nope17:49
MuelliDug__: just type it. you'lee see17:49
coz_pheonixman,   I am not sure why that icon persists17:49
Dug__ok i found it im installing now will let you know if that works :) thanks17:50
HaPK_PerCarsacarlson, yeah, maybe the problem is the router...17:50
sacarlsonHaPK_PerCar: you have any other computer that does work with wifi in your system?17:51
HaPK_PerCarMuelli, I can't paste it here directly, it's in a different pc, but what I'm supposed to see there?17:51
pheonixmancoz_, i wanted to know how does an icon get attached to a particular folder or hard-disk17:51
pheonixman..?17:51
MuelliHaPK_PerCar: see whether there are interfaces.17:51
sorush20Hi, my network manager has suddenly disappeared17:51
sorush20what can I do?17:51
HaPK_PerCarsacarlson, I haven't tryed with ubuntu wireless...17:51
MuelliHaPK_PerCar: i.e. other than "lo" but also an "eth0" or an "wlan0"17:51
HaPK_PerCarsacarlson, it works fine with windows17:51
coz_sorush20,  disapeared from the panel?17:51
SuperMiguelany one running ubuntu on a macbook pro?17:52
HaPK_PerCarMuelli, there is a wlan0, no eth017:52
sorush20coz_ yes17:52
Dug__Muelli: still the same the sound has a lot of intereference no matter what volume setting i set my mic to17:52
Dug__any other ideas ? :(17:52
coz_sorush20,  mm  one thing to try is to remove the  notification area and then right click panel  add to panel.... notification area17:52
MuelliHaPK_PerCar: weird then. You should have a eth0, no? Check whether your wired network is supposed to be supported.17:52
sacarlsonHaPK_PerCar: ok it's not your router or access point then.  did you give wicd a try,  if you can see wlan0 in ifconfig  you should see some results with wicd17:52
MuelliHaPK_PerCar: and in parallel, you can do a sudo dhclient wlan0 and see what it says.17:53
sacarlsonHaPK_PerCar: Muelli: well if he's not connected to the accesspoint yet then dhclient won't work yet17:53
HaPK_PerCarsacarlson, can't install wicd, can't find the package17:53
Dug__Muelli ?17:54
coz_sorush20,   the other option ,.,, if that doesnt work is    to reset the gnome panel with    gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel17:54
MuelliDug__: sorry mate. Try a different mic...17:54
SingAlongubuntu crashes and returns to login scren after login. Happens only for my particular user. Anyway to fix this?17:54

=== bihari is now known as J0k3r
sacarlsonHaPK_PerCar: I guess you can try connect with command line with iwconfig wlan0 essid "youraccesspointname"  then dhclient wlan017:55
MuelliSingAlong: well. try to move .local out temporarily. Then .gconf.17:55
SingAlongMuelli: .local in my home dir?17:55
pheonixmanhttp://imagebin.org/109767, my problem is one of my hard-drives takes some different icon, does anyone know to solve the same.?17:55
MuelliSingAlong: in the home directory of the user with the login problems.17:55
HaPK_PerCarsacarlson, how I'm I supposed to know the name of my acces point?17:56
SingAlongMuelli: done! i renamed it17:56
sacarlsonHaPK_PerCar: after you try iwconfig wlan0 essid "youraccesspoint" you should do another iwconfig wlan0 to see if it attaches to you accesspoint17:56
OceanSurf I recently upgraded to 10.04.....in doing so have I lost the simple Volume Control Dial that normally sits at the top of the screen on the pull down menu.....as well the sound is not on upon every startup...and the only way for me to turn it back on is via the terminal command alsamixer where I have to go to the Speaker and take it to 100%...it is always at zero upon startup.   How do I fix all this?17:56
Dug__Is there anyone else who could help me fix my microphone problem please ?17:56
MuelliSingAlong: try to log in. If that doesn't work, try .gconf folder.17:56
SingAlongMuelli: do i just delete that .gconf?17:57
sorush20coz_ that worked perfectly..17:57
MuelliSingAlong: nope. better not. just temporarily rename it17:57
sacarlsonHaPK_PerCar: well you can iwlist wlan0 scanning  I think that will give you a list of accesspoints it see's but I don't know how to tell what is yours.17:57
ZykoticK9OceanSurf, to see a volume control in panel - right click: add to panel / indicator applet17:57
coz_sorush20,   cool17:57
SingAlongMuelli: doesnt work. already deleted .gconf and tried it17:57
coz_OceanSurf,   right click panel   Add to panel  and look for indicator applet   that should br/join #ubuntu17:57
coz_OceanSurf,  that should bring back  the volume conrol17:58
MuelliSingAlong: well. you need to have gconfd killed, too. So you'd be better off rebooting before trying to login.17:58
sorush20coz_ but now the netowork manager will not show me the usual netwrok menu17:58
SingAlongMuelli: I did sudo service gdm restart.17:58
MuelliSingAlong: anyway, does it not work after having .local renamed?17:58
pheonixmanguys, anyone there..?17:58
SingAlongMuelli: nope.17:58
MuelliSingAlong: yes. that's bad.17:58
ZykoticK9pheonixman, i don't see the different icon (or do you mean for the cdrom drive?)17:59
SingAlongMuelli: I dont mind resetting gnome and xorg config. I just have a lot of stuff configured/installed in my home dir. So if I'm able to retain that. I'll be happy17:59
OceanSurfcoz: done17:59
MuelliSingAlong: unless you don't delete anything, you're fine.17:59
Rogue1coz_, no such luck - froze at 10% (Configuring language-pack-en-base) - HDD LED is still lit, but nothing else happens - and it's been that way since I signed off here17:59
OceanSurfCoz or ZykoticK9:  any idea why the volume is always to ZERO upon any restart?17:59
pheonixmanZykoticK9, its not a cdrom, it my cdrive that has taken the icon of cdrom17:59
HaPK_PerCarsacarlson, iwlist says no scan resulst on wlan017:59
SingAlongMuelli: anyway to reset this thing to be able to login normally? I could login via ubuntu's recovery mode into the UI. but thats no the usual UNR.18:00
ZykoticK9OceanSurf, pheonixman - to both of you:  sorry I'm not sure ;)18:00
Muellipheonixman: dunno. but is there a "autostart.ini" or anything in that cdrive that defines an icon? I don't even know if nautilus respects that, but it might.18:00
Dug__can anyone help me please ? ive had this problem for a week now and I cant find anyone willing to help :(18:00
SingAlongMuelli: When I try to use another desktop manager for login in normal mode it screws up.18:00
OceanSurfill be back!18:01
coz_Rogue1,  your kidding?  darn...man something is definity up there... how large is your hard drive?18:01
OceanSurfgoing to restart now and see18:01
Dug__im completly new to linux i dont know what else i can do :(18:01
MuelliSingAlong: why don't you just move .local and .gconf and .gconfd, reboot and retry?18:01
MuelliDug__: try an external mic first.18:01
sacarlsonHaPK_PerCar: mabe time to try windows again to be sure wifi works there.  if not it's broke18:01
SingAlongMuelli: hmm... havent rebooted after deleting them I'll try rebooting18:01
Dug__ok18:01
HaPK_PerCarsacarlson, wifi works fine18:02
coz_Rogue1,  do you have a large hard drive??18:02
MuelliHaPK_PerCar: how could you check that so quickly? Anyway, check whether your chipsets are actually supported.18:02
sacarlsonHaPK_PerCar: then I guess it's broken try another ubuntu boot cd.  what version is this one?18:02
Rogue1coz_, no - had these problems with both a 20GB and a 120GB18:02
HaPK_PerCarsacarlson, lucid18:02
sorush20when I try to log in to ubuntu gnome, my hdd just doesn't make any noise, and I can't load gnome, however I am able to load gnome failsafe. How do I repair this18:03
coz_Rogue1,  ok mm  I was hoping that the drive just needs a good wiping18:03
HaPK_PerCarMuelli,  how can I check that?18:03
Dug__Muelli, tried an external mic and the same result18:03
SingAlongMuelli: my netbook is rebooting. hope that fixes it. Coz I tried even re-installing the gdm18:03
MuelliHaPK_PerCar: Well. Find out which hardware you've got. lshw will tell you. Or dmesg. Then go and google.18:04
ZykoticK9OceanSurf (not currently here) - i wonder if the cdrom icon show because the drive's label starts with "cd"rive?18:04
Dug__sounds like there is interference of some sort when it plays back and the sound is breaking up18:04
sacarlsonHaPK_PerCar: did it work with older ubuntu?  there is also version 10.1 prerelease.  you should search google to see if your wifi device has a bad history  you can see what you have with lsusb or lspci18:04
MuelliSingAlong: jeez. you shouldn't need such a brutal method.18:04
HaPK_PerCarsacarlson, iwconfig wlan0 says I'm connected to my router, but doesn't associates an acces point18:04
SingAlongMuelli: rebooted and the problem still exists18:04
MuelliDug__: aha! There you go. So it's not necessaillry your internal mic.18:04
kriss3dUhmm anyone here good with grub ? im having a problem with grub booting to a grub shell instead of the menu specified in menu.lst18:04
MuelliSingAlong: funny. hm. But it works for another user, right?18:04
Dug__i know i mentioned when i first entered the room i think it might be the driver18:04

Dug__like the alsa driver or something but im not sure because im new to linux :(18:05
ZykoticK9kriss3d, just to confirm.  You are using Grub1 and not Grub2 correct?18:05
coz_Rogue1, well all I can suggest is 1) go to the ##linux channle and explain the situation...2)  check in the bios  on this machine to see if any settings may be getting in the way... and 3)  download  Dban and do a complete wipe of the hard drive18:05
MuelliSingAlong: hm. funny indeed. so check the users .xsession-errors or dmesg or /var/log/messages.18:05
Dug__i tried updating my alsa driver today but it had no effect18:05
sacarlsonHaPK_PerCar: oh your accesspoint is in iwconfig?  then it works  you can now dhclient wlan0 and you up and running18:05
MuelliDug__: uh. that might actualyl be the problem ;-)18:05
SingAlongMuelli: the .xsession-errors has some errors abt evolution18:05
Dug__but it was the same before updating18:05
kriss3dZykoticK9, i belive i am using grub1. version 1.98.somthing18:05
MuelliSingAlong: well. what exactly?18:06
systmhi, I have a laptop thats running 10.04 and it's battery died during a reboot and now when i boot from grub with normal or recovery it gets a kernel panic, which i think has something to do with my hard drives not being fsck/umounted properly, what should i do?18:06
Dug__its been like it for one week and today i tried to update it ddidnt change anything18:06
ZykoticK9kriss3d, what ubuntu version are you using?  was it fresh installed?18:06
Muellisystm: well. what exactly is the error message ?18:06
SingAlongMuelli: do you want me to check demsg via the same user that crashes or via root? (i can login as the old user in term mode not via the desktop mode)18:06
Dug__either way it sounds the same18:06
MuelliSingAlong: doesn't matter :-) But you can "login" as the user on the console (Ctrl+Alt+F1) I hope.18:06
systmMuelli: let me reboot18:07
ZykoticK9kriss3d, FYI grub 1.98 is actually grub 2 - and thus you shouldn't be editing menu.lst18:07
Dug__any ideas on where i should go from here ?18:07
kriss3dZykoticK9,  its an older core.Its for Backtrack 4. Im just having problems installing grub to the usb stick.. aparently the grub might be grub2 since its 1.98..18:07

SingAlongMuelli: ya thats what i meant. i can login as the problematic user via the console not the desktop. so hope i can reset the stuff to be able to login normally.18:07
MuelliDug__: remove your custom driver and get the ubuntu stock kernel in place. Then try to adjust levels with  alsamixer  and pavucontrol. If that doesn't work, than I'd file a bug.18:08
HaPK_PerCarsacarlson, no, it won't work. it says no dhcpoffers recived18:08
SingAlongMuelli: possible to do any kind of hard reset on desktop config? (keeping data in my home dir intact)18:08
MuelliSingAlong: get the error message.18:08
Dug__hmm :s how do i remove th updated driver and go back to the old one :s18:08
kriss3dZykoticK9,  i know. i just figured this place might have some people who is good with grub. but seeing as it might be grub2 im having i at least have a clue where to begin.18:08

Dug__cus i updated to 1.0.2318:11
sacarlsonHaPK_PerCar: look for the partnumber returned from lsusb  (asume it's usb)  or lspci if not usb18:11
SingAlongMuelli: the xsession errors file seems to have gone blank now.18:11

systmMuelli: nope18:13
Dug__x-Fi ? :s that isnt me18:13

Dug__ohh18:14
Dug__i only used that guide today18:14
Dug__like literly a few hrs ago lol it didnt make any effect18:14
Dug__do you know how i can undo it and go back to the old alsa driver ?18:14
ZykoticK9headkase314, Dug__ sticking to Repository based updates is often better then manually installing stuff.18:15
Dug__yeah i was desperate though i cant find an answer to my problem anywhere18:15
ZykoticK9headkase314, Dug__ i realize above is not always possible ;)18:15
headkase314Dug__, there are three packages that are compiled you may try to reinstall those exact three packages in synaptic.18:15
Dug__hmm ok so i search for alsa-driver in synaptic ? and install18:15
systmMuelli: any ideas?18:16
c3poHi, i have acer laptop,  touch pad is not working, but previously it worked fine. any ideas?18:16
ZykoticK9Dug__, headkase314 that still might not replace the other/manually installed version...  you may start getting ugly conflicts without uninstalling the updated alsa stuff.18:17
headkase314Dug__, look at the guide and for the three files you downloaded find each one in synaptic and right-click and choose reinstall.  When all three are reinstalled reboot and type "cat /proc/asound/version" to make sure you are back to .2118:17

Rogue1sebsebseb, had this problem  for a while - attempts to install  from 9.10 or 10.04, be it desktop livecd or alternative cd, fail or bring up nothing but a blinking cursor. Running an SiS 315PRO graphics, built into motherboard. Need to be  running 10.04, but can't even  seem to get the upgrade to work - package manager simply freezes and the whole system hangs18:56

sebsebsebRogue1: ah yes SIS graphics cards18:56
Aemaethmy printer was easy to setup...but   it was a network printer18:56

HoopyFroodI installed Lucid and Grub to an external hard drive, but whenever I boot to the hard drive, the grub rescue screen appears. I have tried installing grub onto the drive from ubuntu, another copy of which I have on my internal drive, and manually replacing the grub folder as root, both without success18:57
headkase314Ridpojken, Go to: System > Preferences > Sound.  Your detected hardware will be listed under the various tabs.  Is the hardware you are trying to use there but not chosen?18:58
dhanithanks for those who helped me...18:58
headkase314cesc, how did the driver go?18:58
sebsebsebRogue1: Why do you want 10.04?18:58
Ridpojkenheadkase314: But i can't get in to the sound prefs. I get stuck at the "waiting for sound system" thing...18:58
sebsebsebRogue1: 9.04 is still good untill end of October when support runs out, and 8.04 has untill the end of April next year, and thats still a good version18:59
Rogue1sebsebseb: just prefer to be up-to-date. find some packages don't seem to be available in add/remove programs, etc. etc.18:59
headkase314Ridpojken, go to: Applications > Accessories > Terminal and in the terminal type "gstreamer-properties" without the quotes and press enter.  In the device section for the sound output can you select your wanted device there?18:59
Rogue1sebsebseb: system ran fine using VortexBox (vortexbox.org, based on Fedora Core 11) - but I've been plagued with problems since trying to get Ubuntu on it :(19:00

_Pbhas anyone here installed ubuntu, then another distro, and wasn't able to boot back into ubuntu?19:01
HoopyFroodis it a problem in grub?19:01
headkase314Ridpojken, does your onboard sound now function correct if you choose it?  And can you now go into the regular sound properties without it hanging?19:02
_Pbi think so19:02
sarge1221Muelli: what happens if you get this message when you try to md5sum a disk?  sarge1221@Darkmotion:~$ md5sum /dev/cdrom                        md5sum: /dev/cdrom: Input/output error19:02
_PbHoopyFrood: also, i can't seem to mount or fsck my ubuntu partition19:02
Muellisarge1221: hm. I'd say an Input/Output error happened ;-)19:02
ZykoticK9_Pb, just an FYI, but whatever grub you installed most recently, is probably in control - so you'll probably have to configure grub in whatever the "other" os is.19:02
sarge1221Muelli: what does that mean?19:02
Muellisarge1221: if you didn't remove the disk yourself then your drive might be faulty.19:02
HoopyFrood_Pb: try making a grub rescue disk (google it) or use an ubuntu live cd19:02
headkase314Ridpojken, after changing to your onboard sound see if regular properties still hangs19:02
_PbHoopyFrood: ok19:03
ath_I'm looking for a gnome panel applet to give me sys info, ie: cpu, ram, hdd, network device info, in a simple text format, preferrably a 'gnome panel' applet, anyone know of one?19:03
Ridpojkenheadkase314: I can see my sounblaster card or CA0106 that ubuntu calls it, the onboard card is not there.19:03
Ridpojkenheadkase314: And no, the sound pref is still "jammed"19:03
sarge1221Muelli: it auto removed the disk after the burn. i stuck disk back in to check it and got that.19:03
HoopyFrood_Pb: then reinstall grub19:03
headkase314Ridpojken, what happens if you test the device in gstreamer-properties?19:03
ZykoticK9_Pb, reinstalling Grub from Ubuntu might be a good idea (hopefully it will autodetect the other linux during setup)19:03
Ridpojkenheadkase314: I get a sound19:03

AemaethRidpojken, headkase314 has a good point, once you get into your sounds settings my proper line input was mic 2 not mic 1 which was default19:11

ar0nici don think so mang =|19:27
ar0nichave you made sure you have the repo its in?19:27
headkase314Ridpojken, so my suggestion is to explore the ubuntu software center and find an audio recording program.  Once you have that candidate test all four available inputs in gstreamer-properties.  Then as separate issues: the hanging of the regular sound properties and sound recorder not having proper plugins/codecs.  Does this sound like a good break-down to you?19:28

HoopyFroodKjeldor: no19:32
Aemaeth10/10 10.10 cute19:32
sebsebsebKjeldor: maybe just about in Wine, if not a Windows virtual machine yes :)19:32
ZykoticK9Aemaeth, actually it's 10.10.10 for date ;)19:32
Licuadorasebsebseb: NAh, i tryed Sabyon, and is a whole different thing.19:33
tdlmokay guys, how do i undo a mount --bind?19:33
AemaethZykoticK9, yeah, just remembered what year it is, are they trying to create some sort of 2012 scenario by tempting fate?19:33
Muellitdlm: umount19:33
dhanii dont think so...19:33
dhanitry Ultimate Edition19:33
sebsebsebLicuadora: Sabayon is alright, but probably not really the best one for newbies to start with19:33
Kjeldorso how exaclty do i do this? i have wine installed, and im downloading itunes right now. ill install itunes later?19:33
tdlmMuelli: i tried umount but it says 'device busy'19:33
Muellitdlm: well. maybe the device is busy then ;-) Try umount -l19:33
Licuadorasebsebseb: even Ubuntu Studio, studio64, they all suck. The only one good is Ubuntu, but... it is so unstable19:34

pelmenguys, after upgrade to 2.6.32-24 destop now boots much slower, than used to. Everything is as fast until xserver starts. Than black screen. 5 seconds... i see mouse pointer...5 seconds...i see background...5 seconds.. i see gnome panels. boot finished. ?19:39
ar0nicthats not true collabra19:39
collabraar0nic: what19:39
pilhello everyone - two days ago , I couldn't connect to this server - it was saying that some kind of botnet connected from my ip address - do you know any malware remover program to scan my system for malwares?19:39

headkase314Licuadora, as a work-around you can hold the power-button on the system for 5 seconds and it will shut off.  If the shutdown sequence makes it as far as unmounting the filesystem then you can do this with no issues.19:39
pelmenOer: nope19:39
t3chi3wtf is up with ubuntus updates screwing with vbox clipboards and home keys?19:39

coz_Aemaeth,  are you trying to change sounds ?19:40
Licuadoraheadkase314: i can turn it off like that, but i want to do it the right way19:40
ZykoticK9pil, you where probably picked up by accident by the Freenode bot "idora" or similar - it probably wasn't malware on your system, just bad timing19:40
t3chi3fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff19:40
coz_??19:40
Aemaethyeah, i can change them by replacing the current files, but that seems like a roundabout way of doing that19:41
collabraar0nic: so acording to you,.... this channel doesn't promote ubuntu?... yeah, believe what you want....19:41
xanguapelmen: try to boot with an older kernel; press Alt when booting to see the grub menu19:41

icedwaterNot sure what has changed.19:41
xanguacollabra: this is a channel for ubuntu support, ONLY ubuntu19:41
headkase314Licuadora, I hear you - sometimes my system doesn't shutdown too - started happening when I connected my computer through HDMI to my HDTV.  That's unresolved for me too..  Work in progress.19:41
Aemaethbut i think that's with the default ogg too19:41

collabraxangua: Both of you are missing the bigger point to the 'ubuntu support' channel..... This may be a channel where you can get support for your newly installed ubuntu system,... but It's secondary purpose is in promotion,... look, most people here advocate the use of ubuntu or it's dirivitives.... and thus actively 'promotes' ubuntu.19:45

kyoJake: I have not idea :O20:22
ikoniacharlesno: that's personal opinion, try them both20:22
headkase314Kjeldor, I believe that is for an ipod or touch or iphone?  If so then libimobiledevice is just so you can plug it into a usb port.  From there you can use rhythmbox to manage the device or something like gtkpod.20:22
ArcidiasHoopyFrood: why don't you add a line to your harddrive instance of GRUB so you can choose to boot from the external?20:22

HoopyFroodikonia, why, though?20:23
icedwatercharlesno: Are you new to Linux?20:23
Arcidiascharlesno: LFS20:23
anodesniARGGG, according to the page xrandr should work with your card20:23
Arcidiascharlesno: or Slackware20:23
ikoniaHoopyFrood: probably becuase you're using a USB drive and it didn't work out the install info properly20:23
headkase314Kjeldor, I believe you can search for "gtkpod" in synaptic and that can be used to manage the device - people seem to think that one is the most reliable anyway.20:23
HoopyFroodikonia, I reinsatlled it via the terminal on ubuntu on my internal drive20:24
Arcidiascharlesno: ArchLinux is also an option20:24

headkase314Kjeldor, see HoopyFrood link above and to confirm what exactly is the device?  And in gtkpod under Edit > Preferences can you choose the model of your device.  I'm not in front of gtkpod right now so preferences may be in another location.20:32
HoopyFroodheadkase314, I tried to help Kjeldor with this before20:32

ArcidiasblackMatrix1: the former was a "no"20:52
urbmenjust for the record I have basic level experience with ubuntu20:52
blackMatrix1Arcidias: where do you change the settings for persistence20:53
Arcidiaswell you must have a casper-rw loop file20:53
izatt82hello to the IRC world20:53
rubbahdawgi need help installing the "real time threads" for sound buffering or something like that, but i dont get how to write in the config as im asked to do in the readme20:53
Kjeldorbut I also want to sync my apps20:53
Kjeldor=(20:53
Arcidiashi izatt8220:53
nUboon2AgeKjeldor: just fyi, last i checked the newest itunes wine was succesfull with was 7.3 i think.20:53
batbratI am trying to install freeglut3 and libqt4-dev on my Dell Inspiron 15R without also installing the mesa packages. My laptop has an ATI Radeon HD5470 card and I already have fglrx-dev. What is a good workaround?20:53
ActionParsnipurbmen: ok can you give the output of:   lsb_release -a; dpkg -l | grep flash; dpkg -l | grep gnash; ; dpkg -l | grep swf20:53
izatt82hello20:53
ArcidiasblackMatrix1: well, when you make the live usb you must tell it to have persistence20:54
ArcidiasblackMatrix1: how did you do it?from windows or linux host?"20:54
urbmensay again sorry what do you want me to do20:54
ActionParsnipKjeldor: you have a device from one of the most shortsigted and ignorant companies. What did you expect20:54
izatt82i gave up on installing itunes in wine and just downloaded virtualbox PERL because it has USB support20:54
ArcidiasI second what ActionParsnip said20:54
istvanActionParsnip, only an inet6... huh... thats weird. why isn't that working then?20:54
blackMatrix1Arcidias: you mean when I create the bootable usb I have to set persistence ? I created the CD from Windows host.20:54
rubbahdawgplease someone...20:55
ActionParsnipistvan: does the interface have flashing lights around the network cable20:55
Ober7Kjeldor why don't you try and run MS windows in a virtual machine? i have the apple cure too and thats what i do20:55
istvanActionParsnip, nope20:55
nUboon2AgeKjeldor: which might be useful for you still, but just so you know wine isn't able to run newer versions of itunes.  you can always check the wine appdb at http://appdb.winehq.com to see if a particular windows program is working on wine yet.20:55
ArcidiasblackMatrix1: oic, then see pendrivelinux.org20:55
* batbrat hopes to solve the problem20:55
magicianlordIs LPIA available for 10.0420:55
ActionParsnipistvan: then its not plugged in right, there is a standard that there should be lights around the link. Check the router link light too20:55
ArcidiasblackMatrix1: they have a tool which can make you a persistent usb drive20:55
Ober7apple curse*20:55
Arcidiasmagicianlord: no20:55
Kjeldorhow do i run ms windows in a virtual machine?20:56
nUboon2Agevirtualbox is a pretty good way to run stuff from other OSs.  Its not too bad to figure out Kjeldor.20:56
ActionParsnipmagicianlord: for Canonical themselves: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2009-November/000643.html20:56
izatt82dont use virtualbox OSE though it doesn't have USB support. if needing it for the iphone make sure to get virtualbox PERL20:56
Arcidiasmagicianlord: as ActionParsnip pasted a link earlier - Canonical dropped support20:56
istvanActionParsnip, no, there are no lights on the computer. Also, if i set my netbook up as a bridge and plug this computer into that, it works fine, so it's not HW, it's my home netowork (which i'm not admin of)20:56
Ober7Kjeldor: use a virtual machine like virtual box20:56
magicianlordActionParsnip: since which version20:56
ActionParsnipKjeldor: thats the only real way but it requires a windows license and install media. You will also be running Windows inside ubuntu (quite a lot of bloat)20:57
Arcidias10.0420:57
Arcidiasmagicianlord: 10.04, as was pointed20:57
FlannelArcidias, magicianlord, ActionParsnip: Debian still supports it strongly.20:57
ArcidiasFlannel: the question was about ubuntu and we are in an ubuntu help channel20:57
magicianlordArcidias: i'm in terminal, so it's a little hard to type that into links20:57
izatt82http://www.intowindows.com/how-to-install-windows-7-on-virtualbox/20:57
blackMatrix1Arcidias: Thank you. I am using the pendrivelinux and I see the option to set persistence. one more question, Is max persistence only 4GB or its because of my usb size ?20:57
Ober7Kjeldor: like Arcidias said you need to have a legal windows cd or iso20:57
izatt82its pretty easy to installit20:58
ArcidiasblackMatrix1: it's the maximum size, I'm afraid20:58
ActionParsnipizatt82: sounds expensive, i'd use a cheap XP license20:58
Kjeldorso now, how do i uninstall itunes from wine?20:58
FlannelArcidias: Of course.  But Ubuntu doesn't support LPIA anymore, so the recommended upgrade path (since I'm not aware of any community supported LPIA effort) is Debian.20:58
rwwmagicianlord: It was dropped for 10.04, and pretty bad in 9.10. There is no supported upgrade path for LPIA users; if you have one, you're recommended to reinstall with a sane architecture.20:58
nUboon2Agemagicianlord: here's the ubuntu dev announcement: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2009-November/000643.html20:59
rwwFlannel: anything that can run LPIA can run x86, afaik?20:59
magicianlordrww: so it's not worth installing 9.10 over 10.04 on a netbook?20:59
rwwmagicianlord: no20:59
Flannelrww: Ah, is that the case?20:59
blackMatrix1Arcidias: thats good enough...till I completely move away from all that disk space windows is sitting on :-)20:59
magicianlordi would still like to try20:59
kyle_hello peeps. In ubuntu 10.4/Nautilus 2.30.1 How can I search for files in sub dir's.20:59
rwwmagicianlord: congratulations. enjoy wasting your time20:59
ArcidiasblackMatrix1: glad to hear it20:59
magicianlordwasting my time is what i do21:00
KjeldorHow do I uninstall itunes from wine?21:00
xanguaKjeldor: apps>wine>uninstall21:00
ArcidiasblackMatrix1: btw, the process of making the 4gb casper loop file takes some time and the progress bar does not move, so sit it out, don't freak out21:00
rwwFlannel: I've never heard of one that didn't, and last time I read anything by Intel about it, they were planning to keep it that way21:01
Sid123what is a suitable player for playing HD video in lucid (.mkv 11 GB of size) smoothly21:01
izatt82VLC?21:01
istvanActionParsnip, also, uner network connections ipv6 is set to ignore.. so idk why that has an address21:01
magicianlordis anyone here using 10.04? is it still usuable after the upgrade issues?21:01
xanguaSid123: are you using a netbook¿21:01
xanguamagicianlord: what upgrade issues¿21:02
rwwFlannel: I don't see LPIA on http://www.debian.org/ports/ , incidentally.21:02
ActionParsnipFlannel: http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENUK248&q=lpia+10.04&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&oq=&gs_rfai=     It's pretty much all over :)21:02
magicianlordxangua: there was some recent update that rendered grub 2 inoperable21:02
Sid123xangua: NO .I am using a desktop with nvidia GEfore graphics card21:02
xanguamagicianlord: i set up updates every 2 weeks, i hope hen that ehy fix if in teh next 2 weeks S:21:03
ArcidiasSid123: then VLC21:03
xanguaor mplayer21:03
magicianlordgood idea, but what if the bug happens when you update21:03
izatt82i use VLC to watch all my video files no matter what type21:04
xanguamagicianlord: does this affects only dual boot systems¿¿21:04
rwwmagicianlord: do you have a bug number I can look at?21:04
livingdaylightguys, I'm on Ubuntu running VB for the first time. I've used it a couple times a couple years back and the setup seems different now as to how I recall it.21:04

acathlaSid123, let me find some URLs for you21:07

rubbahdawgarcidias, no sorry, i was jokin coz i tried to reach attention about my sound problem earlier21:07
Sid123<acathla>ok21:07
rubbahdawgim trying to use renoise, but i got problems with installing "real time threads"21:07
acathlaSid123, table for supported nvidia : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nvidia_PureVideo21:07
rubbahdawgcould you help me if i specify a bit further?21:08
Arcidiasrubbahdawg: I'm afraid I am of no use to you there, my friend21:08
nUboon2Agelivingdaylight: i can try.  are you just trying to figure out the path to a file?21:08
ActionParsnipistvan: i'd try a known good cable, or try a different port on the router21:08
ActionParsnipistvan: check the connection LED on the router is lit21:08
cesc_guys I decided to install driver RTL8187 instead of RTL8187L which I installed earlier on.21:08
livingdaylightnUboon2Age, yes21:09
istvanActionParsnip, the cable is fine, as i said it connects to the bridged laptop fine. also, if i read that ifconfig correctly it shows some packets both for read and write?21:09
nUboon2Agelivingdaylight: clarification: are you saying you're using Visual Basic on Ubuntu?21:09
cesc_when trying to compile the driver ...... I got this output... let me pastebin it.21:09
livingdaylightnUboon2Age, Virtual Box21:09
ArcidiasnUboon2Age: VirtualBox21:09
nUboon2Agelivingdaylight: ah virtualbox21:09
ActionParsnipistvan: it is recieving packets, try setting the ipv4 address manually21:09
Arcidiaslivingdaylight: you want to boot from the iso in your Downloads folder, right?21:10
livingdaylightArcidias, yes21:10
magicianlordWhat is planned for 10.10?21:10
ActionParsnip!maverick | magicianlord21:10
ubottumagicianlord: Maverick Meerkat is the codename for Ubuntu 10.10, due October 2010 - Maverick is Not released and Not Stable, discussion and support in #ubuntu+121:10
Sid123<acathla:will xbmc do it?21:10
Arcidiasmagicianlord: Gnome3!21:10
istvanActionParsnip, do i need to reboot or just hit apply after that? (and should i use the gui?)21:10
nUboon2Agelivingdaylight: i think Arcidias may be of more help.  i've used virtualbox but not enough to be that much help.21:10
magicianlordGnome 3 would be nice.21:10
Arcidiaslivingdaylight: then make a new machine, by clicking the New button up left21:11
rubbahdawgarcidias, do you have any idea what it mans when it says, " To enable RT thread creation via PAM open the /etc/security/limits.conf file as root (or via sudo)."21:11
ActionParsnipistvan: you can use any method you like, shouldnt need a reboot. Linux is designed to not need reboots21:11
Arcidiasrubbahdawg: no idea21:11
rubbahdawgdarned, thank you anyway21:11
acathlaSid123, yes, I think, never tried. With 10.04, you just install some libs and type "mplayer -vo vdpau -vc ffh264vdpau youfile.mkv"21:11
Arcidiaslivingdaylight: follow everything till you have completed the setup, then click on the name of your setup21:11
acathlathere are some tutorial for ubuntu21:11
livingdaylightArcidias, I assigned the name, memory and hd size..21:11
livingdaylightArcidias, just need to create the path to the .iso from which I will boot and install os21:11
Arcidiaslivingdaylight: so now go down to Storage21:12
izatt82livingdaylight:  after you have created a new VM go to settings and then click on storage on the right you can select the ISO21:12
Kjeldorhow come itunes doesnt clean out from WINE diretory after uninstall21:12
Arcidiaslivingdaylight: Click Storage and add a CD21:12
ActionParsnipKjeldor: because of the way its coded. Some apps work extremely well, some work badly, some won't even install21:12
Arcidiaslivingdaylight: and it would give you a selection box, where you can find the iso, then add it, then Start the virtual box21:12
acathlaSid123, just install libvdpau121:12
Arcidiaslivingdaylight: and that;s it!21:13
Kjeldorso what shall I do?21:13
ActionParsnipKjeldor: you need to remove some entries in ~/.config21:13
randyrkellyis there another zip file manager that is very good21:13
Kjeldorhow?21:13
Arcidiasguys, I gotta get going21:13

cesc_I'm desperate. I'm trying to install drivers for my Alfa Network AWUS036H on my machine running xubuntu. This wireless usb adapter has chipset Realtek RTL8187. Early this afternoon I installed RTL8187L driver successfully on kernel but the device is not recognized. I reckon it must be chipset RTL8187 instead (withou the final L). Now I'm trying to install it and I get errors. The output is here21:25
KjeldorActionParsnip: Even if I read your post 100x, I still wouldnt understand it as I am a new user to UBUNTU. It would be of great help if you could lay it down to me in "laymans terms" for the time being while I'm learning21:25
cesc_http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/yMWK1F9r21:25
ActionParsnip(21:13:49) ActionParsnip: Kjeldor: check in ~/.config/menus/applications-merged21:26
ActionParsnipKjeldor: you are just lazy21:26
thune3cesc_: i'm guessing that the "2007" version that you are trying to compile is not compatible with newer kernels, but I'm probably wrong.21:26
istvanActionParsnip, and i answered that all of the other comptuers (including this one which is running 10.04) that are connected to that switch have the lights on the switch that corospond to them on. but i figured i'd give up and tell u what the deal with the netbook is too.21:26
Quantum_Ionnlko What was on the hardrive before Linux ?21:26

nlkoQuantum_Ion: windows and linux21:27
bsmith093i bought one of those sata ide to usb kits on ebay, i cant get it to work and honestly it looks very flimsy could it be a fake because the adapter that the sata cables pluginto feells very light21:27
Quantum_Ionnlko you said the disk was encrypted by what operating system ?21:28
nlkoQuantum_Ion: im pretty sure its not a big deal, was just wondering which iso had the encrypted drive option at install time21:28
nlkoQuantum_Ion: it wasnt, i want it to be now, bu ubuntu21:28
ActionParsnipKjeldor: you follow the folder tree until you get to the folder, you will then see the files which are being merged with your apps menu and can clean them up21:28
Quantum_Ionnlko, take the 32 Desktop Install I would wipe the hard disk clean if you just plan to use Ubuntu Linux on the drive21:28

sarah32<cesc_>do you use alfa just for internet or for hacking neigbours too ?21:36
ubottusarah32: 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.21:36
cesc_sarah32 this usb wireless adapter.. I use it on another machine with ubuntu 10.04 with no problems at all. It worked straight away without installing any drivers.. On this other machine with xubuntu 10.04 it doesn't work.21:36
sarah32sorry jordan21:36
ZykoticK9packagedeliverer, check out the ln command, you need to use -s for directories21:36
Jordan_Usarah32: No reason to be sorry :)21:36
istvanActionParsnip, yes, it's online with wireless just fine. but i'm looking to use the ethernet. and as far as i can tell those settings are separate? they are int he gui network connections anyway...21:36
nUboon2Agecesc_: i see on the web where others have used ndiswrapper successfully with the RTL8187.21:36

FloodBot3killerforeverr: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.21:36
nUboon2Agecesc_: so that is always an option.21:36
packagedelivererHey ZykoticK9, ln produces "Operation not permitted" I'm a logged in as root21:36
sarah32<cesc_>  check up dmesg21:37
ActionParsnipistvan: you can use network manager in the indicator applet21:37
packagedelivererA google search told me symbolic links were not possible for fat32 nor ntfs?21:37
Jordan_Ucesc_: If it works out of the box with 10.04 on another machine then you probably shouln't be compiling and installing non-standard drivers.21:37
ZykoticK9packagedeliverer, the syntax would be like "ln -s /source/directory /source/directory2" - you'd need to use sudo if not in home directory21:37
daedalus_Next question, does ubuntu come with something to play rss/xml podcasts?21:38
istvanActionParsnip, yes, thats what i'm using, and i think i have everything set rite. if not, i'v changed it around pleanty of times21:38
ZykoticK9packagedeliverer, i'd recommend against using "root" account in ubuntu21:38
=== daedalus_ is now known as helpmelinux
=== helpmelinux is now known as helpmeeee
Jordan_Ucesc_: Xubuntu uses exactly the same kernel an drivers as Ubuntu, so it's probably not actually a problem with the wireless drivers. Possibly a problem with USB in general (can you use other USB devices?) or a simple configuration problem.21:39
cesc_sarah32 I have my own internet connection but I have experimented hacking some neigbours just to see that this works.21:39
ActionParsniphelpmeeee: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/tunesviewer-itunes-university-media-and-podcasts-in-linux.html21:39
nUboon2Agecesc_: i wonder if differences in xubuntu and ubuntu's network manager could explain the difference.  There is a #xubuntu channel that might be helpful too.21:39
sarah32<cesc_> i know your ip21:39
cesc_:)21:39
sarah32will report you to your neighbours21:40
packagedelivererZykoticK9, I'm using telnet with sh, not bash, I'll need to figure out how to get sudo working21:40
ZykoticK9packagedeliverer, if you really are "root" you don't need sudo21:40
sarah32<cesc_> try to install if you know how compat-wireless with those drivers your internet will work and aircrack too i mean if you want21:40
ZykoticK9packagedeliverer, telnet = fail, check out SSH for secure connections21:41
sarah32and check up aircrack website there is a very lot of info about alfa21:41
cesc_the bizarre thing is why my Alfa Network works out of the box on my PC with ubuntu lucid lynx and not on my other pc with xubuntu 10.04.21:41
ActionParsnipsarah32: i know yours too21:41
sarah32<cesc_> cuz there maybe is driver missing21:41
sarah32<ActionParsnip> no you know my proxy21:41
ratdogActionParsnip can i purge wirc with terminal then re-install21:42
ActionParsnipsure21:42
packagedelivererZykoticK9, it's an emtec NAS, it can't handle SSH, hence telnet21:42
ActionParsnipsarah32: what's my ip ;)21:42
Jordan_Upackagedeliverer: That is correct, you cannot create symlinks on fat32 (not sure about ntfs) and you also cannot create hard links to directories on almost all filesystems.21:42
cesc_let's see compat-wireless in ubuntu software center21:42
sarah32<cesc_> type dmesg and you will see if oyur card is working or there is a driver missing21:42
ratdogActionParsnip can i have help with the command?21:42
nUboon2Agecesc_: that's why i say it could be about differences between ubuntu and xubuntu.21:42
cesc_ok let me see.21:42
istvanActionParsnip, did i miss waht you were saying with the connection tools? i stillc an't get a ethernet connection...21:42
sarah32<ActionParsnip> 911?21:42
packagedelivererJordan_U, I also tried ntfs, it didn't work21:42
ActionParsnipratdog: sudo apt-get --purge remove wicd   will remove it fully21:42
ratdogty, /me hands ActionParsnip a DEW21:43
ActionParsnipsarah32: i'm an ubuntu member, we get cloaks21:43

FloodBot3sarah32: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.21:44
ActionParsnipsarah32: yes, but you dont get irc cloaks to completely mask your ip21:44

owd95someone that can recommend me a good nvidia card, i have a ati 5770 now?21:45
menahi21:46
Daekdroomowd95, You shouldn't be thinking of getting a new videocard if you have a 577021:46
menahiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii21:46
headkase314owd95, if you're Ubuntu only a 5770 should be adequate for pretty-well any task?21:46
ActionParsnipDaekdroom: depends on requirements21:46
ActionParsnipowd95: whats the system for?21:47
DaekdroomActionParsnip, I can't think of anyone using Ubuntu and envying more than the power of a 5770 unless he's going to use it for something other than 3D power.21:47
ActionParsnipDaekdroom: we'll see21:47
headkase314owd95, I say that because there aren't that many cutting-edge high-requirement games for Ubuntu.  Now if you're dual-booting with Windows and want games there then that's different...21:47
ratdogk, ActionParsnip how can i purge gnome network manager?21:48
owd95i heard that nvidia cards works better in linux then ati... and games not working great in wine...21:49
ratdoghehhe21:49
owd95and compiz not works smooth with my ati card...21:49
ActionParsnipratdog: sudo apt-get --purge remove network-manager21:49
thewanderer1how can I install Ubuntu on a pendrive? how much space do I need?21:50
ratdogActionParsnip took a break21:50
ratdogo ty21:50
headkase314owd95, my Radeon HD 4670 works like a champ in Ubuntu (I'm Ubuntu only) but I don't use it in WINE.  What processor do you have?  I think that may make more difference for you?21:50
ActionParsnipowd95: nvidia always work fantastically in Linux21:50
owd95headkase314: i have an intel core i5 75021:50
ActionParsnipowd95: nvidia have been supporting Linux for at least 10 years that I'm aware of, and probably earlier21:50
headkase314owd95, do you know the frequency? (Ghz)21:50
owd95headkase314: yes, 2.6GHz i think with turbo21:51
owd95ActionParsnip: nice, can you recommend me a good card then?21:52
headkase314owd95, I can't see your processor being a bottleneck then.  However a 5770 is a decent card too.  So, it makes me wonder if WINE itself is what is deficient here..  Opinions anyone?21:52
ActionParsnipowd95: nvidia but not the very very latest ones and you'll be fine21:52
ZykoticK9thewanderer1, do you want a LiveCD type environment on the USB key or a real install onto a USB key?21:52
thewanderer1ZykoticK9: an install - and yes, I'm aware of flash wear or w/e, I will handle that stuff21:53
zipperHi everbody21:53
owd95headkase314: so you think i can keep my card?21:53
thewanderer1only I don't have an optical drive...21:53
zipperi got a problem burning dvd0s with brasero21:53
headkase314owd95, one second googling21:53
DasEi!unetbootin | thewanderer121:53
ubottuthewanderer1: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent21:53
ZykoticK9thewanderer1, do a regular install and select it as the install drive - BUT you need to click "advanced" and select to install GRUB onto the USB key if you want to select it to boot from BIOS (understand that part?  might not be clear)21:54
zipperi cant burn any dvd21:54
DasEi thewanderer1: unetbootin is very confortable to me21:54
thewanderer1ZykoticK9: yes, well, I can manage GRUB, I only needed to know if this is possible in a straightforward way21:55
thewanderer1will the persistent install produce an overlay so it keeps all files (aufs or so)?21:55
ZykoticK9thewanderer1, if you want a LiveCD type then use unetbootin or startup disk creator as suggseted by others21:55
owd95ActionParsnip: thx21:55
owd95!21:55
ZykoticK9thewanderer1, both ways are "pretty" straight forward actually21:55
thewanderer1ZykoticK9: not really, I want a persistent install so that I can store files, packages, and tweak settings21:55
headkase314owd95, I'm not all that familiar with WINE but would WINETricks -> http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks help make programs run better / easier to run?  There is a link to Ubuntu .deb files on that page that includes the latest WINETricks21:56
=== anthony_ is now known as arthurrilke
ZykoticK9thewanderer1, if you want persistent then i'd recommend using the Ubuntu Startup Disk creator over unetbootin21:56
headkase314owd95, Includes the latest WINE tricks as part of the latest WINE for Ubuntu21:56
owd95headkase314: thx! i will try that!21:56
bsmith093is there a way to batch streamdump about 15 .ram files21:56
ZykoticK9thewanderer1, persitent != install21:56
headkase314owd95, no promises but I hope it helps21:56
headkase314owd95, as always read a lot, type a little ;)21:57
bsmith093i know i could do it one at a time manually but that would take forever so id much rather have some software do it for me ( just feed it the rams21:57
thewanderer1ZykoticK9: I thought it would give me an overlay so that all my files and settings are kept, like an aufs branch mounted over my root filesystem that uses some writable directory as the backing store21:57
thewanderer1I'm unclear on this now - what does persistent mean here?21:57
thewanderer1I'd like it to behave exactly like a disk install21:58
ZykoticK9thewanderer1, some of the USB key is used to store files/data21:58
thewanderer1ah-ha, so no persistency in Ubuntu...21:58
ZykoticK9thewanderer1, you can perform a regular install onto the USB - just do the Grub manual thing21:58
thune3thewanderer1: if doing full install to USB, be aware of  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/549756 it was only recently fixed and could affect you if installing with lucid.21:58
thewanderer1thune3: thanks, it looks scary21:59
ZykoticK9thewanderer1, that's want i'm talking about grub21:59
opijThe LXDE desktop environment doesnt seem to save me any resources, yet, Lubuntu barely takes up 60 MB of ram. I'm not looking for non-ubuntu support here, just would like to know what I'm doing wrong.21:59
thewanderer1I don't like rescuing my system as I don't have an optical drive :P21:59
ZykoticK9thewanderer1, just click on "advanced" and manually point grub to the usb during install!21:59
thewanderer1okay21:59
thewanderer1so where do I boot the installer from?22:00
thewanderer1from the same pendrive that I install to?22:00
ZykoticK9thewanderer1, you'd need 2 USB drives22:00
thewanderer1uh22:00
ZykoticK9thewanderer1, did you say you have no optical drive?22:00
thewanderer1yes, I did22:01
thewanderer1not even one at this house :P22:01
ZykoticK9thewanderer1, then you'd need 2 usb drives to do anything.  good luck man :)22:01
ChigginsCould someone help me get VNC up and running? I can't seem to connect to anything22:02
thewanderer1well, I can actually set that up with debootstrap...22:02
thewanderer1if I know what packages I need to get it going22:02
headkase314It amazes me that hardware is shifting so that sometimes you just don't have an optical drive.  I remember before optical drives and its looking like I'll see the end of optical drives too! ;)22:02

sarah32cesc, are you still here?22:04
Messyi dont now why ubuntu doesnt come with an irc client22:04
opijthewanderer1, it's taking over 50022:04
macoMessy: it does... empathy... but its awful22:04
slidinghornMessy:  it comes w/ xchat22:04
slidinghorndoesnt it?22:04
MessyNo it doesnt22:05
macoslidinghorn: no, xubuntu does though, i think22:05
craigbass1976I've a friend on gutsy.  Though he's on broadband, connection is still too slow to upgrade to hardy, then to lucid.  Well, not if I don't want to be here all week.  How do I get thunderbird running once I get a clean lucid running, somehow using the tbird profile from gutsy22:05
headkase314slidinghorn, I had to install XChat22:05
macokubuntu has quassel22:05
Quantum_Ionxchat has been he standard for a longtime22:05
slidinghorni guess i just forgot installing it, lol22:05
Messyempathy doesnt have irc support and i installed xchat manually22:05
macocraigbass1976: just keep the dot files in ~22:05
thewanderer1Pidgin supports IRC :P22:05
macocraigbass1976: .mozilla and maybe .mozilla-thunderbird22:05
Messyyea but its not on default install22:05
macocraigbass1976: but you know, you can install clean and just not delete /home...22:05
panopticalmint comes with xchat22:05
headkase314Pidgin supports IRC?  I'll have to play with that when I get home!22:05
macoMessy: empathy does have ir suppot22:06
panopticalpidgin's irc support sucks22:06
macoMessy: its *bad*support, but its there22:06
ZykoticK9Messy, i agree with you re IRC - but it's offtopic22:06
headkase314Heheh, ok bad support ;)22:06
ZykoticK9maco, i wouldn't make the claim that empathy supports IRC - serious issues there...22:06
MessyI dont know what the topic is because i started xchat and it logged me in here automaticly22:06
macoMessy: bad enough that the initial setup wizard doesnt offer it. but if you go to create a new account through the menus, its there22:06
macoZykoticK9: i *said* it was *bad*22:06
macoMessy:  its at the top of the window22:07
sarah32guys will ubuntu lucid work on my desktop pc ?22:07
Messymaco : I searched through the available new accounts and irc was not there22:07
macosarah32: try with a live cd and find out22:07
headkase314sarah32, boot the live cd and try22:07
macoMessy: the initial thing on the wizard doesnt offer it22:07
sarah32i i have commodore22:07
macoMessy: but ive seen it in use22:07
sarah32and the other is atari22:07
ZykoticK9Messy, there is a "bug" that you need to add another type of account - prior to being able to successfully add an IRC account (with empathy)22:07
thewanderer1sarah32: it's not a "desktop PC" :P22:07
headkase314sarah32, there are two options when you boot from the cd: install and live cd desktop.  Go to the desktop and see if everything works.22:08
batbratHi22:08
MessyI see..22:08
macoZykoticK9: i dont think thats a bug...im pretty sure its "this protocol is so crap, we need to hide it"22:08
sarah32my dad told me it is22:08
batbratI'm trying to figure out an installation issue.22:08

Quantum_IonI wish Ubuntu Linux recognized all wifi cards during the live cd tryout22:08
headkase314Don't make me pull out my Amiga and start bashing people with it! ;)22:08
mneptokmaco: uhhh ... try 2522:08
macothewanderer1: PC means Personal Computer, regardless of architecture22:08
ZykoticK9maco, it's an Empathy upstream bug - and they say they "won't fix" because it's too much work to fix IRC on Empathy and they recommend using an alternative :|22:08

Quantum_IonI wish I had kept my IBM PCjr22:09
cescsarah32 yes I'm still here22:09
sarah32thewanderer1,  so what commodore is ? it isnt a tractor for sure22:09
thewanderer1maco: in the last 15 years :P22:09
macosarah32: its a early-1980s computer22:09
batbratWhen compiling from source, freeglut is unable to find the gl headers22:09

cesctrying to download the correct compat-wireless from ubuntu software center22:09
thewanderer1sarah32: sorry, Ubuntu doesn't provide a system architecture for Commodore/Atari22:09
Slartbatbrat: have you installed the opengl headers for development?22:09
macosarah32: you need an intel-compatible cpu and at least 256MB of RAM.. so.. around 1998 or newer22:09
thewanderer1sarah32: Ubuntu only works on i386 and amd64-compatible PC's22:10
sarah32cesc u can add backtrack repistory to your ubuntu and there u will have drivers for rtl8187 pathced for injecton so you wont need to compile or anything22:10

headkase314cesc, you mean backport?22:11
Quantum_IonWhen XP is no longer supported by Micro I will just through Ubuntu Linux on it22:11
batbratSlart: Do you know what needs to be done to get things working?22:11
macoZykoticK9: 686 is minimum i think now22:11

OerQuantum_Ion, good thought.22:11
macothewanderer1: its been 486 for ages, but support for 486 is being dropped in 10.1022:11

thewanderer1maco: oh uh.22:12
batbratSlart: Thanks. I hope you find something useful.22:12
Quantum_Ionsarah32, you can always take out the hardrive of old computers and go purchase a hardrive enclosure and use the old hard drive as a backup hardrive22:12
thewanderer1hm, I can see some interesting stuff in UNetBootin22:12
macothewanderer1:  packages *say* 386, but they're not ;-)22:12
ZykoticK9thewanderer1, in Ubuntu the i386 is really i68622:12
thewanderer1ah, alright22:12
thewanderer1Developers, developers, developers.... :P22:12
macoafaik, they say 386 for legacy reasons.... ie, so upgrades dont freak out22:12
Quantum_Ionsarah32, every 4 -5 years you need to purchase a new computer22:13
headkase314thewanderer1, 10.10 I believe is going to be i686+ only, dropping i586?  Anyone confirm that?22:13
thewanderer1headkase314: I don't know, haven't been to Ubuntu for like 2 years22:13
macoQuantum_Ion: disagree22:13
macoQuantum_Ion: 10 years22:13

SqRt7744does anyone know how to go about finding the cause of a hard lockup when I try to suspend? I'm thinking along the lines of remote debugging, but maybe there is a simpler way...22:20
Slartbatbrat: I haven't really found anything.. as far as I can tell the opengl development headers should come from the ATI package22:20
batbratSlart: They do come with the ATI package22:20
batbratThey get installed in /usr/include/ATI/GL/22:21
Slartbatbrat: and I can't really see a reason for them not being used by the sources for glut22:21
batbratWell22:21
winterweaverI need to install some packages, but it fails because I previously installed docky, and now have the ricotz ppa packages conflicting with the default packages. See error here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=155353722:21

ZykoticK9SqRt7744, be sure to see if you can find anything at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu for lockup issues like that, search for similar hardware etc.  good luck man.22:21
Slartbatbrat: tried creating symlinks?22:22

Slartbatbrat: or just copy them.. it's not like those files are huge22:22
Victor_Tyesterday was working fine but today not :S22:23

headkase314cesc, everyone, are you heading into rough territory putting backtrack repositories into xubuntu?22:30
headkase314cesc, you may end up needing to reinstall if it all goes south.22:30
thewanderer1cesc, use apt-pinning to avoid breakage.22:31
cescsomeone said to me if I added this repository I would get the drivers for RTL8187 automatically22:31
thewanderer1cesc, yes, but you need to know what you are doing if you want to do security research22:31

thewanderer1(for the rest, there's Mac...)22:31

headkase314cesc, what worries me is that it is a different distribution.  That's woogie territory - see IdleOne just posted22:32
doctorZeusI've ran into an issue with samba: when I share a folder out, it only shares that folder, so all of the sub folders are not accessible.  I've looked all around trying to find a way to tell samba to propagate/inherit permissions.  Any ran into this?22:32

headkase314cesc, since the adapter works fine with Ubuntu 10.04 (and is such a pain with Xubuntu 10.04) what about installing Ubuntu 10.04 on that machine too?  Or in other words, why do you need Xubuntu over Ubuntu?22:34

headkase314cesc, or install Ubuntu 10.04 then apt-get install xubuntu-desktop as an extra package?22:35
Victor_Tbecause the button firts not work22:35
headkase314cesc, Aah, that makes sense.22:35
doctorZeusthwanderer1: definitely possible, this is my first go at smb.  What I've done is install samba, change the workgroup name in smb.conf, restart the service and then right-click on the folder(s) I want to share.  Problem is, it only shares THAT folder.  There are 72 other folders I want to share that are inside the one I already shared22:35

doctorZeuseven if I wanted to manually share each folder it shares out each individual folder making the network places of windows look crazy22:36

ToStItOsIs anyone familiar with usbmodeswitch22:37
thewanderer1doctorZeus: see /etc/samba/smb.conf for the list of shares that it generates22:37
thewanderer1you're probably better off using that than clicking your way through22:37

ToStItOsIts not. I have a Cellular franklin u210 usb modem and googling I came upon a site that really is not very explanatory to me22:43
headkase314cesc, I hope you can get that adapter working so you can stick with Xubuntu - that would be the best outcome.22:43
muelliDug__: no such applet exists anymore AFAIK. Run   gnome-power-preferences22:43
ToStItOsFrom my understand usbmodeswitch is suppose to turn the modem into a serial so linux can recognize22:44
Dug__hmm howcome i had the applet just ? :s it was displaying my battery charge in %22:44
headkase314Dug__, is it an indicator?  Try adding a indicator widget to your panel.22:45
Dug__ok ill try that22:45
ZykoticK9Dug__, System / Preferences / Power Management - General tab ;)22:45

Jordan_Ujgcampbell300: Please do not use tor for p2p, you will get terrible speeds but the bandwidth you use will make it harder for people who legitimately need the service.22:45

headkase314Dug__, you're welcome.22:45
Dug__although one question if no one minds, i think it was ubuntu 9.10 it used to display the time remaining of my battery life and time remaining for it to fully charge22:46

m_a_r_kHi, I'm running Gutsy and can't apply the latest Apache2 updates - all other updates are installed - when I get to apache2-mpm-prefork update, apt complains that apache2.2-common is the wrong version (2.2.4-3ubuntu0.1) and that I need to have 2.2.4-3ubuntu0.2 - but apache2.2-common won't install - so I wind up having 3 packages that won't update: apache2-mpm-prefork, apache2.2-common, and apache2-prefork-dev - anyone know how to fix22:49
m_a_r_k this problem?22:49
Dug__or is there no tool like this anymore ?22:49
Jordan_UDug__: I'm pretty sure that the default battery applet will tell you that, though I'm not currently on a laptop so I can't confirm.22:50
Dug__mine only shows me the charge level in %22:50
Dug__no estimated remaining time or anything :(22:50

doctorZeusis that expected behavior?23:15
So_ConfusedHello room... Does anyone here know how to start/have an encrypted chat using Pidgin? I dl'd the otr Plugin from Software Center, but see no options to start one.23:15
opijmneptok, sorry i meant that it has to be an official derivative of ubuntu23:16
opijnot canonical23:16
opijby the way mneptok, canonical does support xubuntu23:17
Jordan_Uopij: If it uses only official Ubuntu repositories (including community supported universe), which as far as I know lubuntu does, then it can be supported here. But there may be better channels to ask in like #lubuntu.23:17
WMPhi, why all packages php5-fpm use old config?23:18
opijJordan_U, are you an op?23:18
Jordan_Uopij: No.23:18
IdleOneopij: what does being an op have to do with anything?23:18
IdleOneWe are all equal here, helping and asking for help23:19
DasEicould someone do an nmap -A on 77.8.166.98  (my host)  and pastebin the output ?23:19
opijIdleOne, because i've been told WAAAY too many times untrue things by people that dont know what they're talking about23:19
Jordan_Uopij: xubuntu-desktop is in universe rather than main, which normally means that it is not supported by Canonical.23:19
IdleOneopij: if and when lubuntu becomes an official flavor is up to Canonical, you can ask in #lubuntu if they have more info on that23:20

opijJordan_U, check the bottom of http://www.xubuntu.org/23:20
edugonchHello, do you know a good ftp client that allows me share files between 2 servers and not the localhost?23:21
edugonchthanks23:21
opijoh i see23:21
Jordan_Uopij: Are you refering to "© 2008 Canonical Ltd. Xubuntu and Canonical are registered trademarks of Canonical Ltd." ? That's far from a statement that they provide commercial support services.23:21
opijit is not supported by canonical23:22
opijthats old23:22
opijdidnt notice the 200823:22
dwangoACedugonch: I can't think of a client that can do that, actually...  Interesting problem.23:22
edugonchNautilus does, but it is soooooooooooo slowwwwww23:22
dwangoACedugonch: Perhaps you could hack together a script to do what you wanted, maybe using named pipes... hmm23:22
edugonch139 hours23:22
dwangoACedugonch: Yeah, it's slow because it's going server -> client -> server23:22
erUSULedugonch: gui ? command line ?23:23
dwangoACedugonch: Now that I say that, there's no way to do what you want unless you control one of the servers23:23
opijJordan_U, they are /claiming/ that it will be official in #lubuntu, but I want to hear from an op whether it's true or not. I cant seem to find anything on google.23:23
dwangoACedugonch: I'm assuming you want to go from one server to another directly which means you'd have to have the ability to log in to one server, act as a client, and upload the file to the other from there23:23
edugonch<erUSUL>, GUI will be better23:24
IdleOneopij: the ops team handles IRC issues. They have nothing to do with Canonical23:24
erUSULdwangoAC: edugonch there are servers that support server to server transfer dunno if that is the case ...23:24
=== neutrino is now known as tar-
erUSULedugonch: filezilla; gftp23:24
opijIdleOne, then how do they know when to kick someone out when someone isn't talking about a canonical supported distro?23:24
dsnydersHi all!  When I log in there is a background picture.  Where is that stored?  I want to use it for my desktop.23:24
edugonch<dwangoAC>; yes, I'm changing server, so I don't see the necesity of get the files to my computer and then upload them again23:24
IdleOneopij: you mean like now?23:24
edugonchfilezilla does not support multiple servers23:25
IdleOneopij: see !guidelines and !coc for what the ops base the decision to ban on23:25
opijIdleOne, im trying to find out if it's _Going_ to be supported23:25
IdleOneopij: I am telling you WE don't know23:25
opijIdleOne, who is "WE"23:25

paulmainI just installed lucid, and have no sound.  It worked in Gutsy.  Also, I'm stuck at a resolution of 800x600.  ANyone?23:26
dwangoACedugonch: So it sounds like you have access to one of the FTP servers at the very least, right?23:26
macobobby0: this channel is for ubuntu tech support, not picking up dates23:26
bobby0hi maco23:26
dwangoACedugonch: If so, do you have to use FTP protocol?  Perhaps another protocol would be better suited for what you're trying to do.23:26
Jordan_Uopij: Like I stated before, what Canonical supports and what the community (i.e. this channel) support are not the same.23:26
edugonchI have access to both23:26
dwangoACmaco: That... was very funny. :)23:26
kita4everHello23:26
macodwangoAC: happens far too often23:27
macodwangoAC: thats the second ive seen today23:27
edugonchWell, I'll try, and do you know a good and fancy command line client?23:27
opijJordan_U, I'm just sick of ops asking me to shut up about distros that have tiny channels23:27
dwangoACmaco: Still, picking up dates? :)23:27
kita4everJust use default23:27
dwangoACedugonch: Well, since you have access to both servers there are a lot of options available -23:27
Autoclesisanyone sync samsa clip with rhythmbox?23:28
dwangoACedugonch: Are both servers running Ubuntu (or at least Linux)?23:28
IdleOneopij: can you please move this discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic as it is not  Ubuntu tech support related.23:28
edugonchYes, using CentOs23:28
dwangoACedugonch: Ugh - RPM based (such a dirty thing to say here :).  OK, so you're using CentOS on both servers?23:29
dwangoACedugonch: And if I understand you correctly, your client is Ubuntu, correct?23:29
erUSULedugonch: good and fancy command line client --> lftp ( scriptable )23:29
edugonchyes23:29
Autoclesisrhythmbox won't show songs to import23:29
dwangoACedugonch: And finally, you want to use a GUI to move the files around, right?23:29
edugonchYes23:30
dwangoACedugonch: So here's a very creative solution to your problem that lets you do this with a GUI - it's a little .. er.. controversial :)23:30
dwangoACedugonch: First, on one of your CentOS servers install neatx - http://code.google.com/p/neatx/23:30
dwangoACedugonch: Then on your Ubuntu client install the NX Client, availabe at http://www.nomachine.com23:31
dwangoACedugonch: Then use the NX client to conenct to the CentOS server to get full access to its graphical GUI23:31
dwangoACedugonch: From there, use whatever GUI FTP client you like to upload files to the second server23:31
dwangoACedugonch: Like I say, it's a bit unorthodox but it allows you to fully access the server and do a server to server copy without the file being sent through your Ubuntu client.23:32
edugonchummmm, intersting, I'll try it, but I don't know if my server have GUI installed23:32
dwangoACedugonch: You don't have to use neatx as there's a fully featured .RPM file for CentOS on http://www.nomachine.com's website but I prefer to use open source when I can.23:32
dwangoACedugonch: Well, you can always install a desktop environment :)23:32
dwangoACedugonch: But, installing a GUI on an RPM distro isn't something I can help you with23:33
edugonchYes, at least the basic23:33
dwangoACedugonch: Did all of that make sense?  I know it wasn't at all the direction you were thinking about going but it'd definitely work23:33
dwangoACQuestion of my own, Ubuntu 10.04 - when in X, Shift+Function keys swithces to console instead of Ctrl+Alt+Function; any idea to set it to Ctrl+Alt+Function?23:34
dwangoACGoogle is a wreck when looking for related keywords on that topic. :)23:34
Ober7dwangoAC: maybe i havent been following but why not just fxp?23:35
dwangoACOber7: He wants to do this through a GUI23:36
edugonch<dwangoAC>, it is a good idea, I'll try it23:36
dwangoACOber7: Plus his servers are both CentOS, so if he wants to do that he probably wants to ask in a different channel. :)23:37
Ober7dwangoAC: i am sure there are gui ftp cients supporting fxp23:37

ramontayaghow do you take a screenshot with the right-click menu open?23:37
Ober7its the ftp servers im worried about23:37
dwangoACOber7: You're right, it looks like a couple of clients do now that I look but I have no idea how he'd configure CentOS's FTP server to do that23:38
Ober7pureftpd does it probably vsftpd23:38
aeon-ltdramontayag: scrot -d 3 (in terminal) or prtsc on keyboard23:39
dwangoACramontayag: Interesting - you're right, you can't do it by pressing alt+printscreen with the right-click menu open23:39
dsnydersHi all!  When I log in there is a background picture.  Where is that stored?  I want to use it for my desktop.23:39

erUSULwinexmms_: disable that script here please23:49
cescthanks aeon-ltd23:49
Jordan_Uglassresistor: The only downside is that you will only be using ext4 features like extents with newly written files (ext3 is just ext2+journaling so you'll get all of ext3's "features" immediately).23:49
