| mininessie | if i stop a distro upgrade via 10.04 to 10.10 will it resume back to where it was at | 00:10 |
|---|---|---|
| mininessie | how do i use patch | 00:20 |
| geirha | mininessie: Depends on how far you're into the upgrade. There's a "point of no return". If you pass that, you can't go back. | 00:22 |
| geirha | There's a message saying so at that point. | 00:22 |
| mininessie | i need to patch broadcom sta | 00:22 |
| geirha | Why? | 00:31 |
| mininessie | geirha, kernel 2.6.33 needs it | 00:36 |
| geirha | Hm. There aren't any Ubuntu releases with linux 2.6.33 afaik | 00:39 |
| mininessie | geirha, yes but if your running 2.6.35 i gotta patch cause the patch is for 2.6.33 and higher | 00:40 |
| geirha | And you're sure Ubuntu hasn't already patched it? | 00:43 |

| abhijjeet | i have added some ppa in the software sources but when i reload the synaptic package , it does not download the ppas which were added by me. please help me im going to install vlc 1.1.4 | 18:29 |
| hobgoblin | did you update the sources? either apt-get update or reload | 18:29 |
| abhijjeet | ia have added some ppas but the package information is not updated when i run the apt-get update command | 18:38 |
| abhijjeet | i want to install the vlc 1.1.4 | 18:39 |
| hobgoblin | abhijjeet: I'm going to give you some commands - can you run them all in a terminal and then copy the whole lot to paste.ubuntu.com | 18:40 |
| abhijjeet | yes i will | 18:40 |
| hobgoblin | cat /etc/apt/sources.list && ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 18:41 |
| hobgoblin | run that please - I will have a look at that first | 18:41 |
| hobgoblin | abhijjeet: also where did you get the ppa information from ? | 18:42 |
| abhijjeet | please see http://paste.ubuntu.com/485933/ | 18:42 |
| abhijjeet | i have got the info from the launchpad website | 18:43 |
| hobgoblin | abhijjeet: which ppa is it? the korn one? | 18:45 |
| abhijjeet | it is ferramroberto-vlc-maverick.list | 18:45 |
| hobgoblin | yea - saw it :) | 18:45 |
| hobgoblin | can you open that and paste it - cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ferramroberto-vlc-maverick.list | 18:46 |
| hobgoblin | it is possible that it is not up to date being a maverick one | 18:46 |
| hobgoblin | might be better asking in #ubuntu+1 if it's not an obvious error | 18:48 |
| abhijjeet | when im going to update in the terminal it shows some sources have invalid file name extension | 18:48 |
| abhijjeet | please see http://paste.ubuntu.com/485939/ | 18:48 |
| hobgoblin | looks like there is not a maverick one yet | 18:50 |
| hobgoblin | run the update and give me the error | 18:50 |
| geirha | Indeed. Only lucid: https://launchpad.net/~ferramroberto/+archive/vlc | 18:54 |
| hobgoblin | abhijjeet: if the error says something along the lines of " there is nothing at ferramroberto maverick" try editing the file - gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ferramroberto-vlc-maverick.list | 18:54 |
| hobgoblin | change maverick to lucid in both lines and run update again | 18:55 |
| hobgoblin | geirha - yep | 18:55 |
| abhijjeet | im trying it be with me for some more time | 18:57 |
| hobgoblin | abhijjeet: I am about | 19:01 |
| abhijjeet | please see http://paste.ubuntu.com/485949/ | 19:02 |
| hobgoblin | yep - we suspected that | 19:04 |
| hobgoblin | abhijjeet: if the error says something along the lines of " there is nothing at ferramroberto maverick" try editing the file - gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ferramroberto-vlc-maverick.list | 19:04 |
| hobgoblin | change maverick to lucid in both lines and run update again | 19:04 |
| abhijjeet | please see http://paste.ubuntu.com/485951/ i think vlc 1.1.4 is not ready for maverick if you know another source from where i can innstall it please give me details and also help me in this regard how to add ppas? and how to confirm that the ppas is working or not? | 19:10 |
| kosaidpo | abhijjeet: i guess you shud satiisfy the dependencies use the option built-dep | 19:14 |
| kosaidpo | and see wht it ll give you | 19:14 |
| hobgoblin | either that or wait for packages to catch up = such is life on the edge | 19:14 |
| abhijjeet | build-dep | 19:14 |
| tenach | Hey, is anyone here good with regexp in htaccess files? | 19:19 |
| seidos | tenach, i don't even know what use regexp have. what are you trying to do? | 19:22 |
| latenite | Hi filks, How to I burn a "double layer dvd" on commamdline? http://pastie.org/1127131 this is what I get so far. thank you | 19:23 |
| latenite | anyone ever successfuly burned doublelayer dvd? | 19:23 |
| tenach | seidos, Right now it converts all .php?var1=blah&var2=blag&subj=var3 into .com/blah/blag/subject_with_spaces but I am trying to figure out how to make them - instead of _ :/ | 19:24 |
| seidos | tenach, i'd probably have to see the file, it looks like you could just replace _ with - using a simple replace | 19:27 |
| tenach | latenite, have you tried something like | 19:27 |
| tenach | growisofs -dvd-compat -speed=1 -Z /dev/hdc /path/to/files | 19:27 |
| seidos | tenach, not that i would figure it out even if i saw the file, heh | 19:28 |
| tenach | seidos, want to see my headache? | 19:28 |
| seidos | tenach, yeah, let me see it | 19:28 |
| tenach | http://paste.ubuntu.com/485964/ | 19:28 |
| tenach | ;D Not as easy as "finding the _ to replace" | 19:28 |
| tenach | it's under read rules | 19:29 |
| latenite | tenach, sure look at my paste :) | 19:29 |
| seidos | hopefully my computer keeps working. i am, ahem, experimenting | 19:29 |
| tenach | latenite, I did look at it, sorry. xD I am up just before work. | 19:29 |
| seidos | tenach, i should have just kept my mouth shut. this makes no sense to me. | 19:31 |
| tenach | latenite, I think that is the extent of my knowledge on such matters - you are arguments after growisofs that I don't understand (from not using them) | 19:31 |
| tenach | seidos, :D | 19:31 |
| tenach | regexp makes my eyes hurt. | 19:32 |
| seidos | everything makes my eyes hurt. python, c, php. mysql | 19:32 |
| seidos | &_& | 19:33 |
| hobgoblin | it's all voodoo | 19:33 |
| latenite | tenach, so what can I do now? | 19:34 |
| tenach | seidos, hahaha. | 19:34 |
| tenach | latenite, I do not know. I myself would have to resort to googling or looking on the ubuntu forums (I would suggest looking there, and posting if you need help) | 19:35 |
| latenite | tenach, I did I cant find anything on doulbe layers | 19:37 |
| tenach | I would suggest posting on there for help, as it seems that most of the people here are away or otherwise unable to respond with help. :D | 19:38 |
| seidos | latenite, did you search the forums using google? | 19:38 |
| latenite | seidos, sure | 19:38 |
| seidos | latenite, then i guess post on the forums, and/or ask in #ubuntu | 19:40 |
| lesclassic | Do I need to be online to set-up ubuntu? | 19:57 |
| seidos | lesclassic, you mean to install from a live cd? | 19:58 |
| seidos | lesclassic, the answer in this case is no, but to get updates you need to be online | 19:58 |
| lesclassic | I have it installed from a usb, but now I'm stuck | 19:59 |
| lesclassic | I only have wireless, but cant set it up without internet | 20:00 |
| kedarm | I think I ended up defining a keyboard shortcut (ctrl+f) by mistake. I don't see it listed in Keyboard Shortcuts. Where/How can I disable such an ill-configured shortcut? | 20:34 |
| duanedesign | hello kedarm | 20:36 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: what does it do? | 20:38 |
| kedarm | yes duanedesign | 20:38 |
| kedarm | yeah, it opens an xterm :( | 20:38 |
| duanedesign | ahhh | 20:38 |
| duanedesign | i think i have heard of this | 20:39 |
| kedarm | i have no idea how I managed to do this. | 20:39 |
| kedarm | I was playing with KB shortcuts, but this one has me stumped. | 20:39 |
| duanedesign | did you install xbindkeys? | 20:39 |
| kedarm | Yes! | 20:39 |
| duanedesign | :) | 20:39 |
| kedarm | how did you know? | 20:39 |
| duanedesign | i have seen this on the forums before | 20:40 |
| kedarm | Ah! So, should I uninstall it? | 20:40 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: can you open a Terminal? | 20:41 |
| duanedesign | haha, ctrl +f maybe :P | 20:41 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: run the command: gedit ~/.xbindkeysrc | 20:42 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: paste the contents of that file at http://pastebin.ca/ | 20:43 |
| duanedesign | if youve never used pastebin, you paste the contents into the box, click submit post and then copy and paste the address of the page it gives you here | 20:43 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: i think their might be a line or two in their we can comment out and get rid of the ctrl + f shortcut | 20:44 |
| kedarm | duanedesign: oops sorry, give me a minute | 20:49 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: no problem I am here. Working on some other stuff so I am not going anywhere for awhile :) | 20:50 |
| kedarm | duanedesign: thanks! here you go -- http://pastebin.ca/1929336 | 20:51 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: well i dont see anything there | 20:55 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: so their are two other options | 20:55 |
| duanedesign | their is an application called 'xbindkeys-config' you can install it with the command: sudo apt-get install xbindkeys-config | 20:56 |
| duanedesign | it is a GUI for configuring xbindkeys | 20:56 |
| kedarm | I installed xbindkeys-config | 20:58 |
| duanedesign | after installing, or if it is already installed | 20:58 |
| duanedesign | run "sudo xbindkeys-config" from the command line. There should be three default entries in the list, as well as any other ones you've set up. Delete the entry that maps to ctrl+f then save it. Make sure you use the "save to default file" from the file menu or it will just revert on you. | 20:59 |
| kedarm | Unfortunately, I don't see an entry against Ctrl+F :( | 20:59 |
| kedarm | I only have two entries | 20:59 |
| kedarm | ctrl+shift+q, ctrl+alt+Print | 21:00 |
| kedarm | I dunno how ctrl+f is taken :( | 21:00 |
| duanedesign | huh, that is exactly what was in the file you pastebined | 21:01 |
| kedarm | right | 21:01 |
| kedarm | do I need to restart something? | 21:01 |
| duanedesign | which i guess makes sense :P but doesnt help us... | 21:01 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: no let me look at something real quick | 21:01 |
| kedarm | Maybe I have to logout and log back in? | 21:01 |
| kedarm | ok. | 21:01 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: ok. You can run this command to check the global shortcuts | 21:04 |
| duanedesign | gconf-editor /apps/metacity/global_keybindings/run_command_1 | 21:04 |
| kedarm | running it. | 21:05 |
| duanedesign | it will open gconf and see if ctrl+f is in the list it brings up | 21:05 |
| kedarm | ok, looking | 21:06 |
| kedarm | hmmm. I can't locate ctrl+f in global-keybindings, keybinding_commands, window_keybindings of Metacity :( | 21:08 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: ok | 21:08 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: i read a forum post where the user removed those two keybindings in the xbindkeys GUI | 21:08 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: also try launching xbindkeys-config | 21:09 |
| duanedesign | without the sudo | 21:09 |
| kedarm | yes, without sudo, but the same thing. | 21:09 |
| kedarm | two unrelated shortcuts there. | 21:09 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: ok i would try your suggestion of logging out and back in, or reboot. | 21:10 |
| duanedesign | might try deleting the two unrelated shortcuts. Not sure how but someone on the forums claims that worked for him. | 21:12 |
| kedarm | hmmm. ok. | 21:12 |
| kedarm | ok, I going to get out. will report back. | 21:12 |
| kedarm | duanedesign: ok, I am back. Ctrl+F is restored to "Find" | 21:16 |
| kedarm | Had to kill xserver session :( | 21:16 |
| kedarm | That key reassignment was driving me nuts. | 21:17 |
| duanedesign | kedarm: it looks like the new version (in Maverick) doesn't do that. I think that frustrated enough people they decided that was not a good default | 21:19 |
| kedarm | duanedesign: but, Lynx does not do that either. It's just that my misadventure with xbindkeys landed me here. | 21:20 |
| kedarm | Sad thing is that I couldn't fix it w/o logout :( | 21:20 |
| seidos | how can i select a wireless access point and get a dhcp lease from within the terminal? | 21:24 |
| kedarm | seidos: have you looked at iwconfig? | 21:26 |
| seidos | kedarm: nope, not yet. let me run it in another window | 21:27 |
| seidos | kedarm: i think this is what i need. thanks | 21:30 |
| === Guest79237 is now known as compiledkenrel | ||
| === compiledkenrel is now known as compiledkernel | ||
| seidos | all right, i tried using iwconfig to set up wireless, but it didn't work | 22:03 |
| seidos | because i couldn't figure out what the ap id was | 22:03 |
| seidos | so i guess my question is, how do you scan for available access point information? | 22:05 |
| seidos | all right, iwconfig didn't work for setting up my wireless. i got the essid and network id, added it with iwconfig, then tried running dhclient...but dhclient wouldn't get an ip. | 22:43 |
| seidos | but wireless still gets configured in gnome | 22:43 |
| kedarm | perhaps you should look at your /etc/network/interfaces? | 22:46 |
| seidos | kedarm: how will that help? | 22:46 |
| kedarm | I sympathize with you because I think the wireless network configuration in Ubuntu can be problematic. | 22:46 |
| seidos | kedarm: i'm just trying to learn how this system works. i'm messing with this because i was playing around with sources.list | 22:47 |
| seidos | what i want to do, ultimately, is see if i can get xorg to work without gnome | 22:47 |
| kedarm | Well, I usually keep my script that does a specific sequence of ifup and ifdown after setting wireless configuration options (essid, password etc.) and then it sorta works. | 22:48 |
| seidos | but right now, without xorg and gnome starting up, i don't have wireless, and without wireless access i'm pretty much dead in the water | 22:48 |
| seidos | kedarm: so you're saying you had to get write a custom script to get it working? O_o | 22:50 |
| kedarm | seidos: yeah, unfortunately. | 22:51 |
| kedarm | I had a WEP enabled wireless network. | 22:51 |
| seidos | kedarm: oh i don't. well, it's my brother's ap | 22:51 |
| seidos | kedarm: it doesn't matter, i'm just going to give up | 22:52 |
| kedarm | seidos: sorry, don't have anything definitive to say. | 22:52 |
| seidos | kedarm: no worries | 22:52 |
