=== ajmorris_ is now known as ajmorris [01:57] I love the knowledge ive gained through y'all and the forums! =D [01:57] It's what we're here for, robbmunson [01:58] Just made a script that saves my freaking butt 30 minutes or so of work if I ever blow the gnome panels to bits :) [01:59] aveilleux: I was actually one of the "we" you speak of a few months back, but....life happened :P [02:01] http://paste.ubuntu.com/484270/ [02:01] of course, dont use this unless you absolutely mean business. [02:04] robbmunson: sup man [02:05] stlsaint: not much, doing a little bash scripting obviously. [02:05] i see [02:05] thats some stuff i need to get my hands on (bash) [02:06] robbmunson: when circumstances would you use the script and what is it doing? [02:06] if you totally "mess up" your gnome panels and wish to restore them back to their default settings you can use this script. [02:07] as in you remove things from the panel that you just cannot get back, all attempts fail. [02:07] resets the panels :) [02:07] robbmunson: ty [02:07] like I said....dont mess with this unless you are in dire need. [02:08] okay. will do [02:18] Does anyone know how I can install ./nvidia-linux-x86-195.36.15-pkg1.run [02:18] in Terminal [02:19] chmod +x nvidia-linux-x86-195.36.15-pkg1.run [02:19] and then ./nvidia-linux-x86-195.36.15-pkg1.run [02:20] It says no such file or directory, but I just downloaded [02:20] and I'm in the Downloads directory [02:20] pseudosmart: sudo chmod +x [02:22] now it says chmod: missing operand after `+x' [02:22] pseudosmart: sudo chmod +x nvidia-linux-x86-195.36.15-pkg1.run [02:22] pseudosmart: then sudo ./nvidia-linux-x86-195.36.15-pkg1.run [02:23] I still get no such file or directory [02:23] * robbmunson has one of those "naughty" distros that im automatically root...sorry :( [02:24] pseudosmart: CaSe SeNsItIvE, remember this.... [02:24] yeah, I copy and pasted the code [02:25] is it visible in nautilus? can you find it? [02:25] pseudosmart: paste the output of ls [02:25] NVIDIA-Linux-x86-195.36.15-pkg1.run [02:26] sudo chmod +x NVIDIA-Linux-x86-195.36.15-pkg1.run [02:26] sudo ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-195.36.15-pkg1.run [02:26] suo chmod +x NVIDIA-Linux-x86-195.36.15-pkg1.run | ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-195.36.15-pkg1.run [02:26] pseudosmart: Linux is very case-sensitive [02:26] copy and paste my line into the terminal if youre in the folder the files in. [02:27] robbmunson, pseudosmart: make sure you spell "sudo" right ;-) [02:27] CRAP! [02:27] aveilleux: good man, LOL! [02:27] okay, now it tells me I'm running x server, please exit x before installing [02:27] *facepalms* [02:27] errr....thats an odd one pseudosmart [02:28] pseudosmart: Okay, this is going to be difficult. Write the command down *exactly* correct [02:28] pseudosmart: then hit Control+Alt+F1... that will drop you into a command-line login [02:28] pseudosmart: Once you're done with the install, or if it fails, hit Command+Alt+F7 to come back here [02:29] pseudosmart: dont start any of this till aveilleux finishes telling you....just a small clue in.... [02:29] oh, wow....im SLOW today, slow and full of failure :P [02:29] okay [02:29] Er [02:29] Control+Alt+F7 [02:29] Not Command+Alt+F7 [02:31] pseudosmart: I assume by your silence that means you've started already.

What is your username? [02:44] rob [02:44] pseudosmart: Then do this. [02:44] pseudosmart: sudo su [02:44] cd /home/rob/Downloads/ [02:45] then the other two commands, without sudo [02:45] then come back here [02:45] kay, be right back [03:12] okay, sorry, I'm back [03:12] after running those commands in the command line, it still told me that the x server was running [03:12] that I needed to stop the x server before installing [03:15] pseudosmart: I was hoping I wouldn't have to do this, but oh well. Go here: [03:15] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/DontZap [03:15] pseudosmart: Follow the directions under "Using GNOME" [03:16] Then, logout of the graphical environment (eg. you will need to quit IRC to do this) [03:16] Then, hit Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to kill the X server [03:16] Then hit Ctrl+Alt+F1 to go to the console and do the commands I wanted you to do before.

Abhijeet [04:51] i used the command ,line to install wine [04:51] good thank you [04:52] i'll try and google it ! Abhijeet [04:53] Abhijeet: Run sudo dpkg --reconfigure [04:54] hm some people don't have much patience :( [04:55] the command specified by the 'aveilleux' is not working [04:56] Abhijeet: What command is it telling you to run, exactly? [04:56] it doesn't recognises the command [04:56] Abhijeet: Just tell me what command it's telling you to use [04:57] It says please run sudo dpkg --configure -a [04:57] gtg [04:58] Abhijeet: What happens when you run that command? [04:58] cyal ;) [04:58] Bye, smeag0l [04:58] bye aveilleux and Abhijeet [04:59] real life waiting [04:59] the ttf mscorefonts installer starts but it fails to download and repeatedly requests the sourceforge.net site [04:59] Abhijeet: have you downloaded winetools? [05:01] presently im unable to run not even the update manager becuase it says that some packages are not installed correctly. how to cancell the ttf mscorefonts installer please help me [05:02] Abhijeet: What package is it getting stuck on, again? Exactly what is the name of the package [05:03] so Abhijeet did you run sudo dpkg --configure -a? [05:04] it says the index is broken [05:05] Abhijeet: I can't help you if you won't answer my questions. [05:05] i did run the dpkg command but it is not going to complete for even 4 hours becuase it repeatedly requests the sourceforge.net website to download the ttf fonts and fails to download [05:06] Abhijeet: What is the exact name of the package that the updater is getting stuck on [05:07] it says to run apt-get install -f but when i use the command the terminal replies to run the the dpkg --configure -a [05:08] Abhijeet: That still doesn't answer my question. [05:10] this is the screen shot http://imagebin.org/111573 [05:11] Abhijeet: So what happens when you run Synaptic? [05:12] it is not opening before that a window popups and says to run the dpkg --configure -a [05:12] Abhijeet: Can you show me a screenshot please? [05:15] please sea http://imagebin.org/111574 [05:22] aveilleux are u onliine [05:23] Abhijeet: aveilleux is probably researching you problem right now [05:30] Abhijeet: I really need to know what package dpkg is trying to configure.

[07:41] i've logged on from another computer. [07:44] tenach: ping [07:45] nuboon2age, pong [07:46] hey tenach, i'm on webchat.freenode.net instead of my normal irc client so i can't tell who's away and who's here -- just names listed. anyway do you see what i wrote above? tenach [07:47] * nuboon2age slaps forhead. i've got a kernel panic (first time experience) and my computer "cannot open root device..." help! [07:47] Hmm. [07:48] I'm not quite paniced by my computer's kernel panic but close. :-) [07:49] the other computer i'm on is quite slow, not well-suited for web searches and such. [07:53] i was using my Lucid laptop when i lost power and when i rebooted i got this. i've got a Lucid LiveCD that allowed me to get on, and even cd over to the HD and see that the files were all still visible and all. i just have no idea where to start. tenach [07:55] It's too bad "Sudo behave yourself!" is not an acceptable code. [07:55] ((I've tried it a couple times in my 5 days of Ubuntu-hood.)) [08:10] tenach i'm using the 'rescue' mode of the LiveCD and mounted the HD, went to /var/log and am trying to figure out of one of the dmesg logs will give me a clue. any ideas? [08:10] anyone else feel free to chime in too. :-) [08:16] dmesg looks like boot with the LiveCD shifted the earlier failed boot further down in the stack, and if so i'll have to reboot to catch it again on dmesg. tenach i don't think this is directly it, but the kern.log shows a segfault on rhythmbox earlier. [08:18] rebooting tenach [08:26] tenach: looking again at dmesg [08:31] oh, it looks like the kernel panic happened (maybe before or in such a way that) dmesg didn't record the failed booting attempts because the last one in the log is from the last successful boot tenach [08:32] tenach or anyone, any ideas of where to start? [08:36] * nuboon2age slaps forhead. i've got a kernel panic (first time experience) and my computer "cannot open root device..." help! [08:36] * Sojikari is too noobish to help. :( [08:37] thanks anyway Sojikari [08:37] nuboon2age: Gotta stick together ^.^ [08:38] :-) Sojikari [08:41] kermiac /me slaps forhead. i've got a kernel panic (first time experience) and my computer "cannot open root device..." help! [08:42] nuboon2age: hang on pls mate... i'm recovering from some major issues here atm [08:42] okay [08:48] hmmm... i'd done an upgrade earlier this evening. tenach, kermiac [08:56] a few things in the dpkg.log of interest include an upgrade to ureadagead, udev, libudev, mountall, linux-libc-dev, aptdaemon, python-fuse, initramfs-toos, libc-bin tenach, kermiac [09:00] ok nuboon2age, I've recovered (sort of) enough to hopefully get a stable connection here now mate... give me a few mins to try to find you some step by step instructions or a tutorial or something [09:00] tenach, kermiac: some good news: i held down the shift key while booting (bringing up the GRUB menu) and successfully booted off of the previous kernel version, 2.6.32.21 [09:02] nuboon2age: did it say anything after cannot open root device, like sda1 or something similar? [09:02] yes [09:02] looking... [09:03] gave uuid # "or unknown-block(0,0) [09:04] Please append a correct "root" boot option: here are the available partitions [09:04] first one is: [09:04] 0800 156290904 sda drever: sd [09:05] usually the 'cannot open root device' type of error means that something has changed your uuid [09:05] 0801 152547328 sda1 [09:05] 08-2 1 sda2 [09:05] 0805 3740672 sda5 [09:06] 0b00 1048575 sr0 driver: sr [09:06] nuboon2age: I would try 'sudo update-initramfs && sudo update-grub' [09:07] Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) [09:07] Pid:1, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.32.22-generic #36-Ubuntu [09:07] Call Trace: [09:07] !pastebin [09:07] blah blah [09:07] For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [09:08] i can't because its on a different computer kermiac [09:08] nuboon2age: did you see the suggestion ^^ [09:09] yes, but i'm not sure how to apply it. should i do that booted from the earlier kernel? [09:09] nuboon2age: you can't boot into the newer kernel, right? [09:09] because i can't get the 2.6.32.22 kernel started (its the one that's panicing) [09:10] yeah [09:10] panicking. [09:10] so reboot to the 21 kernel and run that command kermiac? [09:10] nuboon2age: i would try it in the kernel you can boot into and if that doesn't work you might have to chroot into it [09:11] okay rebooting now... [09:12] while that's happening... i'll say my already shakey belief in laptops is being futher tested by this. [09:14] nuboon2age: it could also possibly be a regression in the updated kernel... I've got a couple of machines that don't like anything after the '2.6.32-18' kernel [09:14] in addition to the previoiusly-made-infamous power and battery trouble i have with this computer, i've got a key that popped off [09:14] i just think laptops are too fragile to be used as the main workhorse. [09:15] I use laptops as my main pc's, it really varies with different models... some are good, some are not so good [09:16] also, a lot of the time newer laptops start out with poor support but it improves with time [09:16] okay i'm on.. [09:17] this one is a dell, which i think should be decent. [09:18] okay the update-initramfs wants me to specify an option [09:19] create new, update existing, remove existing, take over a custom, set alternate boot directory, specify kernek version or all, [09:19] s/kerkek/kernel [09:21] nuboon2age: update-initramfs -u (that updates an existing initramfs) [09:21] doing [09:22] then you can run the second command (sudo update-grub) seperately [09:22] both done [09:22] nuboon2age: ok, give it a reboot and cross your fingers hehe [09:22] reboot? [09:23] * nuboon2age praying [09:24] * nuboon2age 's prayers unanswered. ;( still panicking. [09:27] nuboon2age: not good mate... you could try chrooting in, but I'm not sure that would help. [09:27] nuboon2age: maybe try the steps listed at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelBoot first? [09:27] how do i go about chrooting it? [09:28] s/it/in [09:31] tried removing 'splash' as that page suggested. no dice. [09:32] nuboon2age: the process is outlined at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Recover%20Grub%202%20via%20LiveCD (do the steps up to and including $ sudo chroot /mnt ) [09:33] morning all [09:33] o/ [09:33] re: the other page i'm not dropped into an initramfs shell, so i'm not sure the rest applies [09:34] nuboon2age: what other page mate? [09:35] also i was able to look at /var/log but couldn't find anything applicable. dmesg seems to not be written to. [09:35] the first one you provided [09:35] maybe the debug mode... [09:41] tried with kernel 'debug' parameter on . still panicked (though maybe it wrote a log somewhere). [09:46] debug=vc, no help [09:47] kermiac, which kernel are you on? [09:51] nuboon2age: on this machine I'm on '2.6.32-24-generic-pae' [09:51] kermiac the one i'm having trouble with it 22 [09:54] nuboon2age: is that karic, lucid, maverick?? [09:54] bah s/karic/karmic [09:54] lucid [09:55] but remember i had that problem with 23 so i deleted it (or something) and i guess my system didn't reupdate to it or 24 [09:56] ok, i forgot about that [09:56] i did something kinda drastic just now. i removed and then reinstalled 22 [09:57] nuboon2age: so that means it's most likely a regression on your hardware [09:58] nuboon2age: but I'm not a kernel hacker/triager mate... I would suggest filing a bug with 'ubuntu-bug linux' and then adding any relevant info you have... you could also see if the issue occurs when you use the 'mainline' kernel [09:58] kermiac: which thing indicates that its a regression? you mean just the fact it happened after this update today (actually yesterday now)? [09:59] i'm not sure what about the update could have triggered it. [10:00] nuboon2age: yes, because it happened after an update... but your case is a little strange as you are not using the latest kernel [10:00] i mean i listed some possible suspects, but i don't really know what's going on [10:01] nuboon2age: mountall &/or nitramfs-tools might have something to do with it... but it's just a guess [10:02] question: how do i get it back on track for the main kernel? I already have 'Always prefer the highest option" already on Synaptic. What else is needed? [10:03] its on "Smart Upgrade" also [10:03] (whatever that means) [10:06] kermiac^^^ [10:11] sorry nuboon2age, I've got to deal with kids.... I can only suggest trying the mainline kernel (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds) [10:11] kermiac: thank you sire [10:28] in looks like the way to get on the upgrade path to the lastest kernel is to install linux-generic (and linux-headers-generic) which 'always depend on the latest generic kernel' available [10:41] 22 didn't work even after remove, reinstall. tried 23 and i get "error: cannot read the Linus header. error: you need to load the kernel first. Failed to boot both default and fallback entries. Press any key to continue. if you press a key you get the same thing again. [11:03] i tried to install linux-generic (ie. 24) but it failed the same as above. [11:08] well in my newbiness it makes sense to me to just remove all the kernels except the ones that are working. i don't know how later i'll get these kernels reinstalled and working though. :( [11:08] i'm down to 2.6.32-21 and 2.6.31-11-rt [11:10] i'm going to go to sleep now, but if anyone has ideas, please add them here and i'll check the log for them later. [13:24] hey guys, i seem to have a problem with launchpad [13:24] how do i add an related FAQ to a answer? [13:39] hello serfus [14:11] could anybody help with a problem? i'm trying to install ubuntu on my computer for the fyrst time and after install finishes it doesn't boot up :S [14:13] it won't even let my install windows 7 again :( [14:19] xzach: what happens when it boots? [14:20] does it boot to a command line prompt? [14:21] no it just says it failed to start windows [14:22] Did you install ubuntu inside windows, or by booting the cd? [14:22] by booting the cd [14:24] Do you have more than one harddrive? [14:25] 3 [14:25] Might be ubuntu installed the bootloader on one disk, while the bios tries to boot another [14:26] i'm installing ubuntu on the same disk as the windows was on [14:27] Ubuntu and the BIOS might still disagree on what the "first" harddisk is. [14:27] Enter the bios and change the boot order [14:28] i've spilit my first disk into 2 partions ext2 /boot and ext4 / [14:28] i'm starting from scratch btw if i did something wrong the first time [14:32] Well, unless you told the installer not to install the bootloader, it has installed it on one of the disks; the one Ubuntu thinks is the "first" disk. [14:32] Try booting from each of the three disks from the bios and see if you get the grub boot loader. [14:33] when i choose destination fro the boot loader it won't let select a partion just the disk as whole [14:33] Oh, so it's only ONE disk, but 3 partitions? [14:34] no...1 disk with 2 partion and 2 disks that are not split up [14:34] Right, then try booting each of the three disks, from the BIOS. [14:35] will do when the install has finsihed ....again [14:35] Ubuntu didn't necessarily install the bootloader on the same disk as it installed the system. [14:35] What name did the disk you installed to have in the installer? sda? sdb? sdc? [14:36] it had "s" as a first letter :D [14:36] The bootloader will typically be installed to sda, regardless of where you install the system. [14:36] think it was sda [14:41] I am trying to get ndiswrapper on my fresh install of Lubuntu 10.04 . It worked on the Live CD but I have had to download it from the repos. But cannot get it working. I can install the driver but I cannot "modprobe" it. When I modprobe it says http://pastebin.com/cCjgeA7r [14:43] toadinthehole: aptitude search ndis [14:44] I don't have any experience with ndiswrapper though, so I'm guessing here. [14:46] worked changing boot priority in bios :D [14:49] \o/ [14:50] finx [14:50] finaly i have an operatin system :D [14:52] Both Ubuntu and Windows boot now, right? [14:52] i removed windows [14:54] Oh, going all in :) [14:56] yeah got sick of windows [14:57] and didn't see why i should have 2 systems === jain_akshat is now known as ssj6akshat [15:41] xzach: you completely shifted in a day?

[18:37] That it is needed to press a [Get screenshot] button when looking at the package description to get the image is of course stupid in itself, but why it takes so long time is strange... in 'Programcentral for ubuntu' you get the big screenshot directly without any noticeable delay [19:15] Hey all.

Bind that command to a key combination in System > Preferences > Keyboard Shotcuts [20:20] This applies to hobgoblin too [20:20] I don't need to do it :) I was just looking [20:20] kedarm: To directly answer your question: no, not by default. But you can se it [20:20] set it* [20:21] aveilleux: ah, that would do it. I was tinkering with gnome-screenshot --interactive. [20:21] thanks! [20:21] kedarm: Yeah, the gnome-screenshot manpage is really out of dat. [20:21] s/dat/date/ === IdleOne_ is now known as IdleOne [20:27] aveilleux: put a patch together [20:27] aveilleux: I can help you send it upstream [20:27] paultag: I don't know how to do that [20:27] aveilleux: sounds like a good learning deal to me [20:28] aveilleux: apt-get source gnome-utils [20:29] aveilleux: it uses quilt, apt-get install quilt, and man quilt [20:29] aveilleux: your file you need to edit is in gnome-utils-2.30.0/gnome-screenshot/gnome-screenshot.1 [20:34] paultag: Not on Ubuntu at the moment, but I'll write this down [20:34] aveilleux: I'll help you if you need it [20:35] aveilleux: but it would be good to send that patch to those guys :) [20:37] paultag: is this regarding adding this shortcut by default? [20:37] kedarm: I just saw that aveilleux saw it was out of date [20:37] kedarm: I was not reading back. Is your issue resolved? [20:37] paultag: oh yes! [20:38] kedarm: awesome :) [20:38] ^5 a [20:38] ^5 aveilleux [20:38] friken tab key [20:38] paultag: I thought you were discussing whether Ctrl+Alt+PrtScr should be added by default in future Ubuntu distribution to mean (take a screenshot of a selection). [20:38] I guess you guys are discussing the out-of-date help on gnome-screenshot, IINM [20:39] kedarm: Oh that would be interesting [20:39] kedarm: raise a bug on it [20:39] paultag: ok, on launchpad, right? [20:39] kedarm: yessir/ma'am [20:39] ok, will do. Thanks! It would be an RFE, I suppose though. [20:40] kedarm: yeah, it will get sorted wishlist, but see if you can file it against the 100 paper cuts for 10.10 [20:40] I mean 11.04 [20:40] dur [20:50] aveilleux: paultag: http://kedarm.posterous.com/ubuntu-linux-adding-a-shortcut-to-take-screen [20:50] I hope you guys are ok with publicizing it thus. Let me know if you would want me to remove your IRC nicks [20:50] kedarm: bah, no problems here [20:51] kedarm: thanks :) [20:51] kedarm: that could really help someone with the same issue later [20:51] paultag: right, that was the idea. [20:51] And yes, I will create an enhancement request. [20:51] kedarm: awesome. One sec, let me find you the 100 paper cuts deal [20:52] kedarm: file the bug aginst this project -- https://launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts [20:52] kedarm: CC me on the bug report [20:53] paultag: awesome. 100 p c seems like a good thing.

[20:59] kedarm: no problem, thanks for the report [20:59] paultag: Thank you for helping me do it (and thanks to aveilleux) [21:00] np, it was all aveilleux [21:00] bbl [21:00] If you insist, paultag [21:12] kedarm: that bug will be marked invalid, I was getting it applied -- Alt+PrtSc does that [21:13] doh! [21:16] paultag: Alt+PrtScr apparently only takes a screenshot of the current window in focus [21:16] that [21:16] that's what he wanted, right? [21:19] paultag: No, he wanted to take a screenshot of any area on screen [21:19] AHha [21:24] thanks aveilleux [21:24] Getting confirmed now [21:24] Hopefully it'll be sorted [21:29] BRB [22:07] paultag: thanks for confirming that bug. [22:08] paultag: is there even a standard way to do that in ubuntu? (base install) screen shot of a selection [22:09] What's up kids === zz_slidinghorn is now known as slidinghorn [22:17] hoi [22:19]
