[00:10] <mininessie> if i stop a distro upgrade via 10.04 to 10.10 will it resume back to where it was at
[00:20] <mininessie> how do i use patch
[00:22] <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
[00:31] <geirha> Why?
[00:36] <mininessie> geirha, kernel 2.6.33 needs it
[00:39] <geirha> Hm. There aren't any Ubuntu releases with linux 2.6.33 afaik
[00:40] <mininessie> geirha, yes but if your running 2.6.35 i gotta patch cause the patch is for 2.6.33 and higher
[00:43] <geirha> And you're sure Ubuntu hasn't already patched it?
[01:57] <boywonder> hi please: im trying to instll a package and im getting error cannot find glib?
[04:48] <mininessie> is this good or bad todd@todd:~$ sudo aptitude upgrade
[04:48] <mininessie> No packages will be installed, upgraded, or removed.

[04:48] <mininessie> Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used.
[04:54] <zeroseven0183> mininessie: It means all the packages you have are up-to-date
[04:54] <zeroseven0183> try running sudo apt-get update
[04:54] <zeroseven0183> then sudo apt-get upgrade

[17:40] <bjfs> do take a while and read the basics ;)
[17:40] <Sunkan85> ty =)
[17:40] <ikt> is map another language?
[17:40] <ikt> oh

[18:29] <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
[18:38] <abhijjeet> ia have added some ppas but the package information is not updated when i run the apt-get update command
[18:39] <abhijjeet> i want to install the vlc 1.1.4
[18:40] <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
[18:41] <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
[18:42] <hobgoblin> abhijjeet: also where did you get the ppa information from ?
[18:42] <abhijjeet> please see http://paste.ubuntu.com/485933/
[18:43] <abhijjeet> i have got the info from the launchpad website
[18:45] <hobgoblin> abhijjeet: which ppa is it? the korn one?
[18:45] <abhijjeet> it is ferramroberto-vlc-maverick.list
[18:45] <hobgoblin> yea - saw it :)
[18:46] <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
[18:48] <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/
[18:50] <hobgoblin> looks like there is not a maverick one yet
[18:50] <hobgoblin> run the update and give me the error
[18:54] <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
[18:55] <hobgoblin> change maverick to lucid in both lines and run update again
[18:55] <hobgoblin> geirha - yep
[18:57] <abhijjeet> im trying it be with me for some more time
[19:01] <hobgoblin> abhijjeet: I am about
[19:02] <abhijjeet> please see http://paste.ubuntu.com/485949/
[19:04] <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
[19:10] <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?
[19:14] <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
[19:19] <tenach> Hey, is anyone here good with regexp in htaccess files?
[19:22] <seidos> tenach, i don't even know what use regexp have.  what are you trying to do?
[19:23] <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?
[19:24] <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 _ :/
[19:27] <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
[19:28] <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"
[19:29] <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.
[19:31] <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
[19:32] <tenach> regexp makes my eyes hurt.
[19:32] <seidos> everything makes my eyes hurt.  python, c, php.  mysql
[19:33] <seidos> &_&
[19:33] <hobgoblin> it's all voodoo
[19:34] <latenite> tenach, so what can I do now?
[19:34] <tenach> seidos, hahaha.
[19:35] <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)
[19:37] <latenite> tenach, I did I cant find anything on doulbe layers
[19:38] <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
[19:40] <seidos> latenite, then i guess post on the forums, and/or ask in #ubuntu
[19:57] <lesclassic> Do I need to be online to set-up ubuntu?
[19:58] <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
[19:59] <lesclassic> I have it installed from a usb, but now I'm stuck
[20:00] <lesclassic> I only have wireless, but cant set it up without internet
[20:34] <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?
[20:36] <duanedesign> hello kedarm
[20:38] <duanedesign> kedarm: what does it do?
[20:38] <kedarm> yes duanedesign
[20:38] <kedarm> yeah, it opens an xterm :(
[20:38] <duanedesign> ahhh
[20:39] <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?
[20:40] <duanedesign> i have seen this on the forums before
[20:40] <kedarm> Ah! So, should I uninstall it?
[20:41] <duanedesign> kedarm: can you open a Terminal?
[20:41] <duanedesign> haha, ctrl +f maybe :P
[20:42] <duanedesign> kedarm: run the command:   gedit ~/.xbindkeysrc
[20:43] <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
[20:44] <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
[20:49] <kedarm> duanedesign: oops sorry, give me a minute
[20:50] <duanedesign> kedarm: no problem I am here. Working on some other stuff so I am not going anywhere for awhile :)
[20:51] <kedarm> duanedesign: thanks! here you go -- http://pastebin.ca/1929336
[20:55] <duanedesign> kedarm: well i dont see anything there
[20:55] <duanedesign> kedarm: so their are two other options
[20:56] <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
[20:58] <kedarm> I installed xbindkeys-config
[20:58] <duanedesign> after installing, or if it is already installed
[20:59] <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
[21:00] <kedarm> ctrl+shift+q, ctrl+alt+Print
[21:00] <kedarm> I dunno how ctrl+f is taken :(
[21:01] <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.
[21:04] <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
[21:05] <kedarm> running it.
[21:05] <duanedesign> it will open gconf and see if ctrl+f is in the list it brings up
[21:06] <kedarm> ok, looking
[21:08] <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
[21:09] <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.
[21:10] <duanedesign> kedarm: ok i would try your suggestion of logging out and back in, or reboot.
[21:12] <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.
[21:16] <kedarm> duanedesign: ok, I am back. Ctrl+F is restored to "Find"
[21:16] <kedarm> Had to kill xserver session :(
[21:17] <kedarm> That key reassignment was driving me nuts.
[21:19] <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
[21:20] <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 :(
[21:24] <seidos> how can i select a wireless access point and get a dhcp lease from within the terminal?
[21:26] <kedarm> seidos: have you looked at iwconfig?
[21:27] <seidos> kedarm: nope, not yet.  let me run it in another window
[21:30] <seidos> kedarm: i think this is what i need.  thanks
[22:03] <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
[22:05] <seidos> so i guess my question is, how do you scan for available access point information?
[22:43] <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
[22:46] <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.
[22:47] <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
[22:48] <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
[22:50] <seidos> kedarm: so you're saying you had to get write a custom script to get it working?  O_o
[22:51] <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
[22:52] <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
