| kyan | Hello ! I've accidentally created an invisible, autohidden panel and can't delete it. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| kyan | Any suggestions? | 00:00 |
| kyan | (Ubuntu 10.04 | 00:00 |
| CyL | DasEi: Sure, I'll google translate it... | 00:00 |
| bstarek | my ubuntu is great.....unless it doesnt do what i ask it to do!!! :)......i am trying to uninstall mysql server but it wont do it! anybody please? | 00:00 |
| DasEi | rypervenche: what you could do is to compres that winparty and then split and burn it to dvd's | 00:00 |
| Galaxor | So my question: I have a wireless card that's connected to the network. I'm trying to make this available over a bridge. I've tried bridging it with my wired card, and now I'm bridging it to a machine in virtualbox. In virtualbox, if I set the IP manually, it works, but if I try to use DHCP, the DHCP server will not respond to me. What gives? | 00:01 |
| Tempus_Fugit | Can someone check my syntax: mv -t "*fire" >> ~/Documents/intrusion? intrusion? is a dir ....and I want 3 .txt files to go into that dir | 00:01 |
| DasEi | cyl : or ask me saurkraut, link : http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/USB_ModeSwitch | 00:01 |
| sjm | bstarek, what does "aptitude purge mysql-server-5.1" do? | 00:02 |
| maco | Tempus_Fugit: get rid of that >> | 00:02 |
| maco | Tempus_Fugit: >> is output redirection for files, it means append | 00:02 |
| wizzle | hi all. i have printer canon iP1880 and i using lucid, the question is how to set up this printer. i have no problem before with hp printer. but for this time, something like CUSP error when i try to do test print. so anyone help me? | 00:02 |
| Tempus_Fugit | maco: ok cool ty | 00:02 |
| smokie | how to find out if the version of ubuntu im running supports IPv6 or not? anyone? | 00:02 |
| bstarek | sjm, thanks for taking the time to answer.....i think its working just give me 5 minutes please | 00:03 |
| versuchsanstalt | i have to turn a ubuntu box into a double boot machine. when i set up something like this a few years ago, the way to go was to install the plague first, and my favourite distro afterwards. no brainer, always worked. what do i have to keep in mind when installing the plague after ubuntu? make a grub floppy and... then? | 00:03 |
| cliff__ | <sjm> Thanx 4 ur help it worked! | 00:03 |
| tgp1994 | DasEi: Thank you, that's seemed to work :) | 00:04 |
| DasEi | Tempus_Fugit: sudo cp -R *fire ~/Documents/intrusion/ | 00:05 |
| DasEi | tgp1994: nice to hear, have fun | 00:05 |
| Syniphas | hey, can someone help me with x? | 00:05 |
| Syniphas | startx returns "no screens found" | 00:05 |
| sjm | versuchsanstalt, just follow this after you install Windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub | 00:05 |
| DasEi | Tempus_Fugit: then check if it's there, and rm -r the old ones, if you like | 00:05 |
| versuchsanstalt | sjm: yeah, thank you. that's what i was looking for. great! | 00:05 |
| DasEi | rm=remove, gone forever, Tempus_Fugit | 00:06 |
| Tempus_Fugit | DasEi: will cp leave the original file?? cut I pretty much want to just mv them not cp so does that do the same thing | 00:06 |
| Galaxor | versuchsanstalt: It doesn't have to be a floppy. I usually dump the bootsector into a file on the drive somewhere. Then, after installing nonsense, I reboot using a cd or something, and dump the bootsector back. | 00:06 |
| ugliefrog | does anyone here know how to delete files off a microsd card permanently?....i have tried for the last few days to remove them, however when I reload the card all files are back on it | 00:06 |
| versuchsanstalt | Galaxor: yup. i think i'll use usb media. thank you. | 00:07 |
| Tempus_Fugit | DasEi: ok got it just figured I could do it all in one motion | 00:07 |
| sjm | ugliefrog, use dd to overwrite them? | 00:07 |
| DasEi | Tempus_Fugit: it will, but it's nice to check first if everything worked right, and also rsync and cp have directory (r) functionaltiy whereas mv hasn't | 00:07 |
| ugliefrog | sjm, what do you mean dd to overwrite them | 00:07 |
| Tempus_Fugit | DasEi: ok good to know ty | 00:07 |
| DasEi | Tempus_Fugit: you can line single commands by &&, but then have no way to check beforehands | 00:08 |
| bstarek | sjm, i think it has worked and dont ask how because i have no idea what happened i have trying to uninstall this for 3 days now! :) | 00:08 |
| sjm | ugliefrog, as in "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/<your SD card>" | 00:08 |
| bstarek | sjm, i gonna try to install LAMP now, i will let you know if i have any problem! thank u! | 00:08 |
| sjm | bstarek, you might also want to try to run "apt-get autoremove" to see if there are any orphaned packages. | 00:08 |
| bstarek | sjm, sure i will! | 00:09 |
| sjm | bstarek, but that is one thing that aptitude is better at than apt-get, but they still might be around if installed with apt-get rather than aptitude. | 00:09 |
| kyan | How can I use the terminal to delete panels? | 00:09 |
| bstarek | sjm, i always use apt-get i thought i was the same as aptitude | 00:10 |
| Emanon | hows banshee doing lately havent tried it in like 6 months | 00:10 |
| xangua | kyan: why do you want to delete the panels¿ if you do you will loss the ability to use menu (alt+f1) and launcher(alt+f2) | 00:11 |
| xangua | Emanon: why don't you install it and see by yourself¿ looks nice but i have always preffer rhythmbox | 00:11 |
| kyan | I only want to delete one, on the left. I created it, but it seems a bug has made it invisible. I can't see it or edit it. | 00:11 |
| kyan | It acts like a 24-px wide area of my desktop where windows won't stay. | 00:12 |
| sjm | bstarek, do a google search on "apt-get vs aptitude" and you'll see some of the differences. I usually use aptitude. | 00:12 |
| taget | Does anyone know how i could run my irc client on a remote machine that is always on and then connect to it from other devices. I would like to have my irc client always running. Any ideas ? | 00:13 |
| versuchsanstalt | Galaxor: btw, dumping back the old boot sector will not make the newly installed plague bootable... ;-) good suggestion anyways, you reminded me of dd. thanks for that. | 00:13 |
| bstarek | sjm, allright i do that thanks! | 00:13 |
| Datz | DasEi: ok.. all old kernel entries still on list. should I just manually edit /boot/grub/grub.cfv? | 00:13 |
| kyan | xangua : It acts like a 24-px wide area of my desktop where windows won't stay. | 00:13 |
| renedox | taget: use ssh, screen and irssi | 00:13 |
| CyL | DasEi: I managed to get it workinbg using gnomeppp... thanks very much for your help and effort | 00:13 |
| xangua | kyan: pkill gnome-panel ; it should start again | 00:14 |
| versuchsanstalt | taget: renedox's suggestion is good. | 00:14 |
| taget | renedox: Thanks, ill go do somemore googling | 00:14 |
| Datz | taget: yep perfect idea, it's what I do too :) | 00:14 |
| Datz | idea renedox has | 00:14 |
| renedox | taget: which of the three do you need help with? we can probably help | 00:14 |
| kyan | Thanks. Works now. | 00:14 |
| DasEi | Datz: no, one drive only in the box ? | 00:14 |
| Datz | DasEi: 3, but only two with OS's | 00:15 |
| th3wind | hello | 00:15 |
| taget | renedox: Appreciate it. i have ssh up and running already on my server. but not irssi or screen. how do you connect to a specific session when sshing into a server | 00:15 |
| th3wind | i am triple booting with windows 7, ubuntu 10.04 and osx 10.5.5 - Ever since grub was installed I have not been able to get into my OSX installation. My windows 7 and Ubuntu installations work fine though. Any help? | 00:15 |
| renedox | taget: "screen -r <sessionname>" | 00:16 |
| versuchsanstalt | taget: use screen -D -R when you try to reattach (-R) to an old session. -D will detach any other old attached screen you might have forgotten about. | 00:16 |
| taget | i may be using incorrect terminology, please correct me if im wrong | 00:16 |
| Datz | DasEi: I had to edit it once already.. to change uuid of a disk.. I don't know if that would be causing problems | 00:16 |
| DasEi | Datz: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && pastebinit /etc/default/grub | 00:16 |
| Datz | DasEi: ok | 00:16 |
| ems | <ems> I have just installed ubuntu and its being very very, lets say extremely slow. -- I mean it took me 5 minutes just to type this message out lol. I dont have that slow of a computer :( | 00:16 |
| ems | oops did not mean to type <ems> | 00:16 |
| versuchsanstalt | taget: login using ssh, then start screen. | 00:16 |
| ems | Any ideas | 00:17 |
| dominicdinada | problem, on an external drive. it is saying that the drive is full... as i filled it up. This was like a week ago. I deleted a good 300 mb and emptied the trash in that same session but when i try to copy new files to the flash drive I am still getting No space. Even though on the status bar it reports about 337mb free | 00:17 |
| taget | versuchsanstalt: ahh, gotcha. where does the session name come from? or is that going to be more apparent as i get this set up | 00:17 |
| Datz | DasEi: http://pastebin.com/z4ce8D70 | 00:17 |
| renedox | taget: personal preference but I like to assign screen sessions with a name so it's easier to restore | 00:18 |
| intrader | ems, is it like bug 631130? I as well have slowness issue with 10.04 (actually since trying 9.10) | 00:18 |
| versuchsanstalt | taget: if you only need one screen session on the machine, you don't need no session names when using -R (and -D if there is an old dangling one...) | 00:18 |
| th3wind | i am triple booting with windows 7, ubuntu 10.04 and osx 10.5.5 - Ever since grub was installed I have not been able to get into my OSX installation. My windows 7 and Ubuntu installations work fine though. Any help? | 00:18 |
| renedox | taget: so something like "screen -a -S irc" then just "screen -r irc" to restore | 00:18 |
| ani__helloo | hello to all,i have installed ubuntu and i had 2 partitions c ,d ,i install ubuntu ,but now i dont know how to open the D partition? | 00:18 |
| dominicdinada | problem, on an external drive. it is saying that the drive is full... as i filled it up. This was like a week ago.

| Azjo | hi, how do i install ubuntu from wubi, from my cd drive? i do NOT want to download. | 00:18 |
| DasEi | Datz: sudo fdisk -l , which is the drive where grub shall sit ? | 00:18 |
| ems | intrader, i have no ideabut it takes me 3 min just to open "Applications" | 00:18 |
| versuchsanstalt | taget: i use only one session on my machine and always fire up screen -D -R | 00:18 |
| taget | renedox: Cool, thanks all for the help. Gonna try and give this a shot | 00:19 |
| renedox | taget: run "screen -ls" to see all screen sessions and their names | 00:19 |
| versuchsanstalt | taget: (detach old, reattach or start new session) | 00:19 |
| versuchsanstalt | taget: ... plus the info rededox is offering. | 00:19 |
| Datz | DasEi: ok, done | 00:19 |
| DasEi | Datz: device for grub ? | 00:20 |
| intrader | ems, that is too slow - I have to guess, but perhaps instead of reaching to the local drive, you are going to the cloud | 00:20 |
| xangua | Azjo: yes, wubi is incluided in the cd; run it from windows session | 00:20 |
| versuchsanstalt | taget: screen is great. you will love it. | 00:20 |
| ems | intrader, how is that possible? Its on my hard drive. | 00:20 |
| Azjo | xangua: it starts downloading after copying content from cd. | 00:20 |
| Datz | DasEi: sda1 | 00:20 |
| xangua | Azjo: it shouldn't | 00:21 |
| taget | versuchsanstalt: is screen installed by default, or does it go by a different package name ? | 00:21 |
| Azjo | well, its useless then ;) | 00:21 |
| versuchsanstalt | taget: ah, and if you want to leave and keep the session open, just ctrl-a ctrl-d to detach from the current session. then log out as always | 00:21 |
| imperfect- | Anyone here running 10.4.1 on Asus P6T? | 00:21 |
| versuchsanstalt | taget: i guess the package is called screen | 00:21 |
| DasEi | Datz: sudo apt-get remove --purge grub* --dry run , look if other then grub-stuff would be removed | 00:21 |
| imperfect- | My sound card appears to be detected just fine but I'm not getting any sound and it hurts my feelings. | 00:21 |
| versuchsanstalt | taget: check it out :-) | 00:21 |
| Datz | renedox: what am I missing out on but not running -a option in screen? | 00:21 |
| Datz | DasEi: ok | 00:21 |
| nullox | hi, how can I find the partition integer for /dev/sda1 for grub configuration | 00:21 |
| DasEi | Datz: last cmd will just simulate it | 00:21 |
| intrader | ems, maybe you are still on the CD?, or the mount table is incorrect for some reason? Just guessing. | 00:22 |
| === evilnhandler is now known as nhandler | ||
| nullox | (hd0, /dev/sda1 INT) | 00:22 |
| DasEi | nullox: you mean the uuid ? | 00:22 |
| DasEi | nullox:sudo blkid | 00:22 |
| nullox | is that what you call it | 00:22 |
| ems | intrader, any ideas on how i can remedy this awwful problem | 00:22 |
| Datz | DasEi: --dry is not understood | 00:22 |
| nullox | the int for the second argument required by grub | 00:22 |
| th3wind | anyone know anything about multiple os booting and grub? | 00:22 |
| DasEi | Datz: sudo apt-get remove --purge grub* --dry-run , typo | 00:22 |
| intrader | ems, reinstall? | 00:22 |
| DasEi | th3wind: ask more detailded | 00:23 |
| th3wind | i am triple booting with windows 7, ubuntu 10.04 and osx 10.5.5 - Ever since grub was installed I have not been able to get into my OSX installation. My windows 7 and Ubuntu installations work fine though. Any help? | 00:23 |
| Fudge | anyone know how to get dummy video driver to work rightr? | 00:23 |
| th3wind | there is more detailed | 00:23 |
| Datz | DasEi: folling packages will be removed: grub* grub-common* | 00:23 |
| ems | intrader, i guess i will have to try that lol | 00:23 |
| DasEi | th3wind: try install and run os-prober | 00:23 |
| nullox | DasEi: that gives a long hex string delimited with - | 00:23 |
| fluvvell | ems, do you have processes running that need stopped? | 00:23 |
| nullox | hardly what I consider an integer | 00:23 |
| renedox | Datz: only a few minor things which you may or may not use, mostly terminal functionality, I believe | 00:23 |
| DasEi | Datz: sudo apt-get remove --purge grub* | 00:23 |
| thecake | hey guys sorry for the stupid question i googled it already all over. What is the command line command for mouse click and movement controls? | 00:24 |
| DasEi | !blkid | nullox | 00:24 |
| ubottu | nullox: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 00:24 |
| Datz | renedox: ah, ok thank.. I'll try with -a option next time :) | 00:24 |
| intrader | ems, let us know - make sure you save any info you have before formatting | 00:24 |
| fluvvell | ems, the system monitor can show you if a program is running at 90% of the cpu and taking up all your power | 00:24 |
| th3wind | DasEi: i looked in synaptec and I have os-prober installed | 00:24 |
| renedox | Datz: no problem ^^ | 00:24 |
| Crankygeek | Can anyone explain to me how to install a SSL Cert? I have already requested it and have the cert, just not sure how to import it | 00:24 |
| Datz | DasEi: should I go ahead with it? | 00:24 |
| DasEi | nullox: grub 2 identifies partitons by this, as fstab does, though still understands devicenames | 00:24 |
| ems | fluvvell, i dont think so. i just installed ubuntu and it acted like this so i immediately went on the web. and nothing. perhaps it is my video display drivers but i downloaded the drivers.run file but no idea how to run a run file lol. so cant test it | 00:24 |
| nullox | I'm using legacy 0.97 | 00:24 |
| === nhandler_ is now known as nhandler | ||
| ems | fluvvell, ill check right now, give me 15 minutes. literally :( | 00:25 |
| DasEi | Datz: yes | 00:25 |
| versuchsanstalt | thecake: xev? | 00:25 |
| Datz | DasEi: I don't want to lose my win7 boot option.. but.. | 00:25 |
| Datz | going ahead | 00:25 |
| th3wind | DasEi: i also tried running update-grub | 00:25 |
| Datz | can always be added back | 00:25 |
| thecake | versuchsanstalt, yes thats it thank you so much. | 00:25 |
| versuchsanstalt | thecake: you're welcome | 00:25 |
| DasEi | Datz: or backub the cfg if not too late | 00:25 |
| rypervenche | DasEi: Hmm, it looks like doing a system clone is going to take a long time. I really only wanted to do it to put on someone elses computer if they wanted, seeing as I payed for the thing. I suppose I could just torrent an ISO for that then use my key, huh? | 00:26 |
| Datz | DasEi: hehe, too late.. but no prob | 00:26 |
| DasEi | rypervenche: ask ms.. | 00:26 |
| ems | fluvvell, nope not even clsoe | 00:26 |
| Azjo | so how do i tell wubi to NOT get the same iso that it has just copied from cd? | 00:26 |
| DasEi | Datz: sudo apt-get install grub-pc | 00:27 |
| fluvvell | ems, so when you say slow, what are you doing right now ? | 00:27 |
| ems | xchat | 00:27 |
| ems | lol | 00:27 |
| fluvvell | ems, which video adapter? | 00:28 |
| DasEi | Datz: sudo grub-install /dev/sda | 00:28 |
| Crankygeek | Can anyone explain to me how to install a SSL Cert? I have already requested it and have the cert, just not sure how to import it | 00:28 |
| th3wind | so is there anything I can do (to grub, in ubuntu) to get my osx installation working again from the grub boot menu? | 00:28 |
| fluvvell | ems. yes xchat :-) | 00:28 |
| Evil_saltine | th3wind: does OSX appear in the grub menu? | 00:28 |
| ems | fluvvell, ati radeon x700. i dont think drivers are installed that is why the frames arent coming in so quick i am wrong could be | 00:28 |
| th3wind | Evil_saltine: yes | 00:28 |
| Datz | DasEi: ah, perfect -> Found Windows 7 (loader) on /dev/sda1 | 00:28 |
| Datz | thanks a bunch DasEi | 00:28 |
| Evil_saltine | th3wind: Does grub give an error when you try to boot OSX? | 00:28 |
| Jordan_U | th3wind: Try asking in #grub. | 00:28 |
| fluvvell | ems, have you used the restricted drives program ? | 00:28 |
| ems | fluvvell, no because i dont know what that is | 00:29 |
| DasEi | th3wind: sory, I never had a licence for osx | 00:29 |
| fluvvell | ems, System->Administration->Hardware Drivers | 00:29 |
| th3wind | Evil_saltine: yes, I get an error - file not found and also something about the kernel (sorry I didn't write it down) | 00:29 |
| tgp1994 | DasEi: Oh dear :( After trying to mount the cd after I burned an image to it, it still fails to mount. | 00:29 |
| nullox | DasEi: thanks that uuid string works | 00:30 |
| Evil_saltine | th3wind: Jordan_U is right, asking in #grub is a good idea | 00:30 |
| th3wind | DasEi: it's ok, no need to be 'sory' | 00:30 |
| th3wind | will do | 00:30 |
| ems | fluvvell, nothing is listed in there. "No proprietery drivers are in this sytem" | 00:30 |
| DasEi | Datz: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 00:30 |
| versuchsanstalt | th3wind: maybe try again before asking in #grub and write down the error message... ;-) | 00:31 |
| DasEi | Datz: entries look correct ? | 00:31 |
| DasEi | Datz: just to check, nothing to edit here | 00:31 |
| Datz | DasEi: yes, except I like to have win7 boot by default. | 00:31 |
| Datz | Although I guess changing the order of that list isn't the proper way, but it's what I've done before | 00:32 |
| ems | How do I run a .run script? Better yet, how do I reset my root password? :( | 00:32 |
| DasEi | tgp1994: try by a gui then, sudo apt-get install k3b | 00:32 |
| Datz | I forget proper way now.. | 00:32 |
| ems | fluvvell, i am so dumb with this right now i hate being new | 00:32 |
| vfw | ems: ./file-to-run | 00:32 |
| renedox | ems: ./name-of-script.run | 00:32 |
| Datz | someting about changing order of numbers of items in /boot or something.. ? | 00:32 |
| DasEi | datz: no problem, which entry is it ? the 2nd.. or .. ? | 00:33 |
| vfw | ems: But may need to chmod +x file-to-run #First | 00:33 |
| Datz | DasEi: it's last | 00:33 |
| DasEi | Datz: we need the number | 00:33 |
| fluvvell | ems, you won't have a root password, you will have admin permissions on your own user. its better | 00:33 |
| Datz | DasEi: actually I may be wrong.. | 00:33 |
| vfw | !root > ems | 00:34 |
| ubottu | ems, please see my private message | 00:34 |
| tgp1994 | DasEi: Ok, thanks. | 00:34 |
| fluvvell | ems, any super user (root) commands can be run with sudo in front of them | 00:34 |
| DasEi | !sudo | 00:34 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli ) . Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 00:34 |
| ems | fluvvell, ok because i do su ad it asks for one | 00:34 |
| ems | and then it says incorrect | 00:34 |
| ems | i get so mad | 00:34 |
| Datz | DasEi: actually I believe it is first somehow.. that's not usual behavior from what I've seen in the past | 00:34 |
| tgp1994 | DasEi: Well, actually, I'd need one for GNOME. Do you happen to know of one that works in gnome, other than gnomebaker? | 00:34 |
| fluvvell | ems, its your own user password | 00:34 |
| versuchsanstalt | ems: newly created files are not executable by default, hence the chmod advice. and the current working directory is not searched for executable files, that's why you need to specify the path, like /home/username/script or ./script | 00:34 |
| renedox | ems: it's "sudo" not "su" | 00:34 |
| fluvvell | ^^ | 00:34 |
| vfw | ems: you only have user password. If you really need to login as root do sudo su - | 00:34 |
| lapsa | switched from Fedora to Ubuntu. how to mount lvm2? following this (http://bit.ly/XF3zt) guide, but on step 5 'vgscan' returns nothing. any help? | 00:34 |
| renedox | ems: alternatively, you can do "sudo -i" and you'll stay in root | 00:35 |
| fluvvell | ems, what they said! | 00:35 |
| renedox | but it isn't recommended | 00:35 |
| DasEi | tgp1994: k3b works fine for me under gnome, also there is brasero (which failed me two times) | 00:35 |
| vfw | ems: But ubuntu is designed in such a way that it is not really necessary. | 00:35 |
| ems | Ok thanks! fluvvell, back to my original problem, sorry if you dont want to help just tell me to stfu i will understand | 00:35 |
| Datz | DasEi: I'm going to reboot to get to VM that needs fixing now :).. Thanks for the help regarding grub. ;) | 00:35 |
| NOMADICUS | Are any of you familiar with ArtistX? Is it officially supported by Ubuntu? | 00:35 |
| ems | vfw, thats good then! i was just asking | 00:35 |
| coz_ | NOMADICUS, no what is that? and do you have link? | 00:36 |
| vfw | ems: NP - FYI... | 00:36 |
| fluvvell | ems, its ok I was just ditto -ing the other guys comments :-) | 00:36 |
| DasEi | Datz: for changin default grub, edit /etc/default/grub, there entries count from 0 up, change the line default=n to according number, if needed | 00:36 |
| fluvvell | ems, but before you try installing a .run file, its worth trying to figure whats broken | 00:36 |
| coz_ | NOMADICUS, got link and looking at it now | 00:36 |
| versuchsanstalt | ems: your user is in the "wheel" group. users in the wheel group may use sudo to execute specified commands as root (or other user). if you "sudo su" you use that mechanism to switch to root. that's good enough for almost any circumstance you will face. | 00:36 |
| fluvvell | ems, before potentially breaking something else | 00:36 |
| ems | fluvvell, the .run file is the ati drivers. so it worked on windows i was having a slow issue then i installed, and it was fine, so it might be in linux casee too | 00:37 |
| coz_ | NOMADICUS, actually it looks like most of the artistx components are in ubuntu-studio | 00:37 |
| DasEi | Datz: there you can also change gruns behaviour in a way, you see the bootable before it wents on | 00:37 |
| ems | fluvvell, but.. Error: ./default_policy.sh does not support version | 00:37 |
| ems | default:v2:i686:lib::none:2.6.32-24-generic; make sure that the version is being | 00:37 |
| ems | correctly set by --iscurrentdistro | 00:37 |
| ems | Removing temporary directory: fglrx-install.liSHzp | 00:37 |
| FloodBot4 | ems: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:37 |
| ems | sorry FloodBot1 | 00:37 |
| DasEi | (the difefrent os'es and kernels), Datz | 00:37 |
| ems | FloodBot4 * | 00:37 |
| renedox | ems: try looking for an ATI repository first, instead of using the .run file | 00:38 |
| * DasEi returns to some homework now | 00:38 | |
| foul_owl | i'm having problems with my wireless card. i have a linksys wusb54g. it worked with windows machines. ubuntu finds the drivers and detects my access point, but times out when trying to connect. i have no idea how to even see what the problem might be | 00:38 |
| renedox | ems: that way, when an updated driver becomes available, it will tell you automatically | 00:38 |
| Datz | DasEi: thanks, making a note. Hehe, funny thing about boot order.. I was right both times. There are two entries for win7. One first, and one last :P | 00:38 |
| versuchsanstalt | couldn't anybody program FloodBot4 to say "nevermind" or something friendly? that'd be so nice. | 00:39 |
| rypervenche | Oh, I have another netbook question for anyone available. I want to use the desktop version of Lucid on my netbook, but I'm not sure if I'll be losing out on anything by not installing the netbook version. Any ideas/comments? | 00:39 |
| mfz2008 | hey friends after I update to ubuntu10 ,it give me "can't open root device uuid=xxxx" | 00:39 |
| NOMADICUS | coz_; I have installed ArtistX and it seems potentially more appealing than Ubuntu Studio. | 00:39 |
| tbr | I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a friends machine but after the purple screen with the little icons at the bottom I get a message box that pops up with "/casqer/vmlinuz". I have tried three different LiveCDs and two DVD drives. I'm now leaning toward a bad RAM module. Does anyone know anything other than bad RAM that might cause this? | 00:39 |
| xangua | !maverick > mfz2008 | 00:39 |
| ubottu | mfz2008, please see my private message | 00:39 |
| sebsebseb | rypervenche: uhmm | 00:39 |
| tbr | Oh and I once did make it to the initial cd menu and every selection would pop up the same message box | 00:39 |
| NOMADICUS | coz_; I have not installed the most recent Ubuntu Studio though. | 00:39 |
| DasEi | Datz: you can also tell grub howmany entries to keep at all | 00:39 |
| xangua | mmm were you refering to 10.04 or 10.10 mfz2008¿ | 00:39 |
| sebsebseb | rypervenche: go with the netbook for 10.04, and then I guess upgrade it to 10.10 when thats released and try Unity | 00:39 |
| tgp1994 | DasEi: I think I'd have to download a bunch of KDE libraries that I really don't want. | 00:40 |
| NOMADICUS | coz_; Last I tried it was years ago. | 00:40 |
| vfw | tbr: Run mentest | 00:40 |
| versuchsanstalt | tbr: it's never a bad idea to use memtest. | 00:40 |
| DasEi | Datz:again in /etc/defalt/grub | 00:40 |
| ems | renedox, i cant do a ******* thing right now because of this problem let alone look for one. lol no offense im just really mad | 00:40 |
| Datz | DasEi: by deleting and entry? | 00:40 |
| mfz2008 | 10.04 | 00:40 |
| rypervenche | sebsebseb: What do I get extra in the netbook version that I don't in the desktop version? I heard some people say it's basically the same thing. | 00:40 |
| versuchsanstalt | memtest is on the install cd, isnt it? | 00:40 |
| DasEi | Datz:again in /etc/defalt/grub, option howmany | 00:40 |
| tbr | There's no memtest in the BIOS and i can't get the livecd menu to run it off the CD | 00:40 |
| will | I'm trying to do the LiveCD Customization. Every time I get to this step 'sudo unsquashfs mnt/casper/filesystem.squashfs' my VM crashes. I'm guessing it is RAM related. How much RAM does this command need? | 00:40 |
| Datz | DasEi: ok, I'll be sure to check it out.. booted to win7 now though.. time for a look at the networking.. | 00:41 |
| sebsebseb | rypervenche: 10.04 netbook and desktop are basically the same thing, but for 10.10 this won't be quite the case, since a new netbook look | 00:41 |
| coz_ | NOMADICUS, ah ok... if you look at the applications on artistx and compare to ubuntu-studio I think they are quite similar and you can always install them on regular ubuntu or better still Edubuntu | 00:41 |
| ehcah | Can anyone make a reccomendation on creating an extremely light bootable ubuntu desktop install from USB Pen Drive? | 00:41 |
| DasEi | Datz:afterwards run sudo update-grub | 00:41 |
| vfw | rypervenche: It's not the same. And personally, I would just install normal Ubuntu, (unless you have small HD). | 00:41 |
| sebsebseb | rypervenche: actsaully the netbook version is in a way nicer than the desktop for 10.04. | 00:41 |
| coz_ | NOMADICUS, although this version of artistx is aug 2010 so it is recent | 00:41 |
| rypervenche | sebsebseb: I don't like the interface at all in the netbook version. | 00:41 |
| mfz2008 | xangua: 10.04 | 00:41 |
| vfw | ehcah: CLI only? | 00:42 |
| sebsebseb | rypervenche: lets go pm, since we'll get a bit off topic | 00:42 |
| xangua | ehcah: lubuntu ¿ | 00:42 |
| rypervenche | sebsebseb: I plan on using my netbook was my main computer. I like normal usage. | 00:42 |
| rypervenche | sebsebseb: Ok. | 00:42 |
| Datz | DasEi: k, thanks, adding that to note. ;) | 00:42 |
| will | how much RAM does 'unsquashfs' need? | 00:42 |
| ehcah | vfw: yes. | 00:42 |
| ems | fluvvell, did you leave? | 00:42 |
| ehcah | vfw: it for an HTPC install. | 00:42 |
| foul_owl | i'm having problems with my wireless card. i have a linksys wusb54g. it worked with windows machines. ubuntu finds the drivers and detects my access point, but times out when trying to connect. i have no idea how to even see what the problem might be | 00:42 |
| kbot6789 | hi guys got a question about a game | 00:43 |
| vfw | HTPC ? | 00:43 |
| sebsebseb | rypervenche: got the message? | 00:43 |
| ZekeS | I dont think CLI only would be good for a Home Theater PC | 00:43 |
| ehcah | vfw: Home Theater COmputer | 00:43 |
| fluvvell | ems, sorry - phone call in | 00:43 |
| ems | fluvvell, ok dude its ok np | 00:43 |
| ehcah | I've been trying to get xbmc live installed, but it won't from USB? | 00:44 |
| renedox | ems: patience is the key :P what about switching to terminal and doing things from there? at least it'll respond faster | 00:44 |
| DasEi | Datz: I've got some work to do here, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/grub2 tells all , the mega-note ;-) | 00:44 |
| versuchsanstalt | foul_owl: did you find some error log messages, like in dmesg or some like that? | 00:44 |
| coz_ | kbot6789, which game? | 00:44 |
| mfz2008 | kernel panic - not syncing : VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) | 00:44 |
| * Datz looks | 00:44 | |
| versuchsanstalt | foul_owl: ...beyond "timing out"? | 00:44 |
| kbot6789 | warzone 2100 | 00:44 |
| coz_ | kbot6789, oh ok i have never used that one sorry | 00:45 |
| ems | renedox, well im not being mean, but youre right, but what kind of OS is ubuntu if this happens | 00:45 |
| kbot6789 | i know thare are linux updates i just donot know how to install them | 00:45 |
| NOMADICUS | coz_; I also recently discovered a distro from Distro Watch called Uber Studet which is apparently not yet officially under the Ubuntu family tree but is built off of the Ubuntu base. http://www.uberstudent.org/ | 00:45 |
| foul_owl | hmm one sec | 00:45 |
| Datz | DasEi: if I see what you mean, yes.. looks like some work | 00:45 |
| renedox | ems: it's not the OS, it's a combination of choice of hardware and ATI drivers | 00:45 |
| renedox | ems: you say it happens under windows too | 00:46 |
| fluvvell | ems, if the slowness is indeed in your graphics card, | 00:46 |
| foul_owl | ok i got something here | 00:46 |
| ems | renedox, i think i really do i just need to get these drivers on here | 00:46 |
| ems | renedox, but they wont install ~_` | 00:46 |
| ems | renedox, i get an error | 00:46 |
| tbr | vfw, versuchsanstalt, holy ball. finally made it to memtest. never seen so many red lines scoll on the screen at once. 100,000 errors and climbing. thanks for the advice | 00:46 |
| coz_ | NOMADICUS, this looks interesting if just to compare with Edubuntu | 00:47 |
| jlebar | I'm trying to install Jaunty into a VM (so I can test gcc 4.3.3), and it's hanging at "configuring shared-mime-info". What's going on? | 00:47 |
| foul_owl | looks like: "wlan0: deauthenticating from (mac address) by local choice, reason=3" | 00:47 |
| renedox | ems: can you pastebin the error so we can see what it is? | 00:47 |
| ems | renedox, that will take awhile but yea i can | 00:47 |
| versuchsanstalt | tbr: oops. so get new ram! | 00:47 |
| demonspork | on Ubuntu 10.04, I have a server w/ 700mhz celeron that responds very snappily when I log in via SSH, and then a server with dual 2.4Gz 2 core xeon procs and d it seems to lag when attempting to access it via SSH and it also lags for a few seconds when do other various tasks. Anytithing processing intensive goes at a an expected high rate, but some things just randomly ladelay for about 10 seconds | 00:47 |
| xangua | jlebar: are you concious that jaunty will stop being supported shortly¿ | 00:47 |
| fluvvell | ems, can you check if you have xserver-xorg-video-radeon installed? | 00:47 |
| renedox | ems: great, if I miss it, I'm sure others here won't and may be able to help | 00:48 |
| ems | fluvvell, how | 00:48 |
| versuchsanstalt | foul_owl: i don't know the answer to your question, but google could. | 00:48 |
| jlebar | xangua, I'm just trying to see if an issue I'm observing is caused by a bug that was fixed between gcc 4.3.4 and gcc 4.3.3. | 00:48 |
| NOMADICUS | coz_; From my understanding Edubuntu is for children and Uber Student is target for college accademics. | 00:48 |
| demonspork | The faster server also is afresh install | 00:48 |
| foul_owl | thanks for the dmesg tip, i will now defer to google! :) | 00:48 |
| fluvvell | ems, right. In a terminal type dpkg -l |grep radeon | 00:49 |
| imperfect- | Hey, is there a pieceof software that will allow me to telnet to a serial port? | 00:49 |
| jlebar | xangua, if there's a way to install gcc 4.3.3 on Lucid, I'd be all ears. (the gcc-4.3 package installs gcc 4.3.4.) | 00:49 |
| versuchsanstalt | foul_owl: yeah, dmesg is a great way to find out about problems. always. | 00:49 |
| coz_ | NOMADICUS, mm yeah this is partially true edubuntu has primary seondary and tertiary packages that should go up to college level although I use Edubuntu and not sure that is particularly accurate :) | 00:49 |
| ems | fluvvell, , i will paaste that too within the pastebin | 00:49 |
| Datz | DasEi: sudo ifup eth0 -> SIOCSIFADDR: No such device. eth0: ERROR while getting interface flages : No such device. Bind socket to interface: No such device | 00:49 |

| fluvvell | ems, you particular pastebin link ? | 00:50 |
| coz_ | NOMADICUS, I am going to download both uberstudent and artistx to compare | 00:50 |
| coz_ | NOMADICUS, however...if you are into graphics you can set up ubuntu with just a few extra applications that will round it off and certainly meet up to most artistic expectations easily | 00:50 |
| DasEi | Datz: I need some time for working myself now and will be back in 2 hours, try to check the type of nick (try different) and list them by lspci | 00:51 |

| DasEi | Datz: also #virtualbox | 00:51 |
| imperfect- | kholzer: I can get it to let me telnet to the serial port? | 00:51 |
| kholzer | imperfect-: a serial terminal emulator, right? | 00:51 |
| Datz | DasEi: ok thanks for the tips, I'm in VMware though | 00:51 |
| ems | DasEi, its #vbox not #virtualbox. :) | 00:51 |
| DasEi | datz° | 00:51 |
| kholzer | imperfect-: do you want to aces a serial port on your computer? or what? | 00:51 |
| DasEi | Datz: ^see ems | 00:51 |
| NOMADICUS | coz_; It is difficult, because I still call myself a noob, but I am by far more knowledgable than most of my friends who are not so os savvy. They are all interested in having Linux as their os, but each person has different usage habbits and want their system to do different things. | 00:52 |
| imperfect- | kholzer: I want to telnet to the ip of my box and have it connect me to the serial port. | 00:52 |
| renedox | ems: run that .run file again but with sudo in front of it | 00:52 |
| vfw | ehcah: See: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ | 00:52 |
| kholzer | imperfect-: ssh into your box. then run minicom there. | 00:52 |
| imperfect- | kholzer: Or more accurately, to four of them | 00:52 |
| NOMADICUS | coz_; before I am willing to install something on their machine I want to have tried it and know it myself. | 00:52 |
| imperfect- | kholzer: I've got 4 of them, and for this application I can actually use screen | 00:52 |
| imperfect- | kholzer: I wonder if there is a way to get a screen session to attach to all four instead of just the one | 00:52 |
| coz_ | NOMADICUS, understood... and that is an excellent approach .. I try to convert most of my clients over to ubuntu and so far NO complaints regardless of their habits :) | 00:53 |
| ems | renedox, same thing my man | 00:53 |
| kholzer | imperfect-: there definitely is...but I've never remembered how to use screen long enough to tell you how to do it ;[ | 00:53 |
| fluvvell | ems, paste last result ? | 00:53 |
| imperfect- | kholzer: I use screen constantly. | 00:53 |
| versuchsanstalt | kholzer, imperfect- there is #screen, btw | 00:54 |
| imperfect- | blah. | 00:54 |
| ems | fluvvell, huh? you mean the sudo command? | 00:54 |
| fluvvell | ems,yep | 00:54 |
| zorael | Is there any way to make a route persistent? As soon as my network interface renews its ip, the routing table gets cleared. | 00:54 |
| kholzer | versuchsanstalt: I just now figured out that was what he was trying to do...thought he just wanted to talk to a serial port... | 00:54 |

| glick | ? | 00:56 |
| vfw | ems: did you try ./ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64.run --iscurrentdistro ? | 00:56 |
| ems | vfw, yes but not with the sudo command | 00:56 |
| sjm | glick, last I heard, no. but you can look into freeswitch or asterisk or some other such thing. | 00:56 |
| glick | sjm, heh that all sounds hard to set up | 00:57 |
| mistergibson | I can't get desktop edition to boot properly for install on my laptop - but server edition boots into the installer ... anyone else run into this? | 00:57 |
| ems | vfw, it brings up a wide varity of commands ? | 00:57 |
| glick | im looking for something plug and play | 00:57 |
| zorael | sjm: I'm trying to override that, sort of. I'm connecting to a vpn on this machine and freenode.net doesn't really like me connecting through a proxy - it complains about identification via SASL (which is my real issue that I'm working around). So it's 'route add leguin.freenode.net gw 10.0.0.1 dev wlan0' after each vpn reconnect and/or wlan reconnect. | 00:57 |
| glick | might magic jack work with wine? | 00:57 |
| vfw | ems: How wide? What are they? | 00:58 |
| fluvvell | ems, you *are* running a 64 bit os? uname -a | 00:58 |
| sjm | glick, I don't think so. You can look into a standalone box similar to ooma. | 00:58 |
| ems | fluvvell, no 32bit | 00:58 |
| vfw | vfw: But does not do what with the sudo command? | 00:58 |
| glick | ooma? | 00:58 |

| sjm | zorael, you can set things up more statically and not use networkmanager (I assume you are using network manager?) | 00:59 |
| vfw | ems: I suppose you will need to run this via sudo (at your own risk). | 00:59 |
| vfw | ems: Yes, as fluvvell says, make sure you have correct driver software for your device. | 01:00 |
| renedox | ems: I think fluvvell might be right, you've downloaded the 64 version when you need the 32 one | 01:00 |

| MTec007 | hello all! I'm trying to get some help here, I have set up OpenSSH for windows, and I can connect fine. I'm trying to figure out how I can, or what I have to do, to create a file on the remote machine.. can this be done from the terminal or... ? | 01:00 |
| ems | it says x86 though | 01:00 |
| ems | vfw, checking | 01:00 |
| fluvvell | https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64.run | 01:00 |
| ems | that is what i downloaded | 01:00 |
| zorael | sjm: I am, yes. It's a Kubuntu installation though I'm using pppd directly to call the vpn. KDE's networking widget (via NetworkManager) sets everything up otherwise. I guess I could make an if-up.d script, hm. Thanks. | 01:01 |
| sjm | zorael, sorry, been a while since I set up a vpn directly on a linux machine. I'd assume in the vpn up/down scripts you could find where the routes are set and fix it there. | 01:01 |

| versuchsanstalt | MTec007: if you want to create a file on the windows machine, this might be the wrong place to ask. if you are trying to create a file on a linux machine, try the touch command. | 01:01 |
| fluvvell | ems, can you also apt-get install dkms | 01:01 |
| fluvvell | sudo | 01:01 |
| MTec007 | well im SSHing from ubuntu to window | 01:01 |
| MTec007 | s/window/windows | 01:02 |
| fluvvell | ems, site says : Kernal Sources package is no longer required if Kernel Header package is installed. | 01:02 |
| ems | fluvvell, done but what does this do | 01:02 |
| versuchsanstalt | MTec007: i don't know how to create a file in a windows terminal, i am sorry. | 01:02 |
| MTec007 | I tried edit but i couldnt get the program to show in the terminal | 01:03 |
| vfw | ems: This looks interesting: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/ati-driver-not-working-after-update-585410/ | 01:03 |
| sjm | MTec007, are you in cygwin? try the linux commands. | 01:03 |
| MTec007 | cygwin is currently downloading and installing | 01:03 |
| vfw | versuchsanstalt: What exactly are you trying to do? | 01:03 |
| fluvvell | ems, sometimes helps with .run installables. | 01:03 |
| fluvvell | ems, now sudo apt-get install build-essential | 01:04 |
| versuchsanstalt | vfw: MTec007 is trying to create a file on a windows machine he is accessing using ssh | 01:04 |
| sjm | MTec007, I assume you're not on the same LAN? | 01:04 |
| vfw | versuchsanstalt: O | 01:04 |
| MTec007 | sjm yes, same router even | 01:04 |
| ems | fluvvell, done | 01:05 |
| sjm | Do you need ssh or could you use RDP or VNC? | 01:05 |
| sjm | MTec007, Do you need ssh or could you use RDP or VNC? | 01:05 |
| MTec007 | i prefer ssh | 01:05 |
| fluvvell | ems, a slightly complex instruction manual is here: https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/linux_cat92-inst.pdf | 01:05 |
| fluvvell | ems, but knowing things are running slowly for you.... | 01:06 |
| sjm | MTec007, me too, but with linux on the other end. | 01:06 |
| fluvvell | ems, it could be a bit tricky. | 01:06 |
| MTec007 | i prefer going by terminal for anything | 01:06 |
| versuchsanstalt | MTec007: you could use the windows md command to create a directory, then list the current directory using dir. but alas, i don't know the plague good enough to know every itch and pain of it. | 01:06 |

| fade_ | hi. Anyone have experience with QNAP NAS devices? I'm trying to connect a couple of disks (Linear array) - that was earlier used in my NAS - to my computer to copy over a ton of files. However, as the disks are encrypted, it's asking for a password to mount the volume. And my password doesn't work. | 01:07 |
| MTec007 | maybe i shall wait for cygwin and go from there. im just impatient | 01:08 |
| fade_ | I tried making a new encrypted volume on my NAS with a set of other disks, and sure enough, I couldn't mount them on my desktop | 01:08 |
| sjm | fade_, no experience at that level. | 01:08 |
| collabra | http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx <--- ems,... are you sure you have the x86 and not the x64 driver? | 01:08 |
| sjm | fade_, try the qnap forums? | 01:08 |
| renedox | ems: don't give up yet, it looks like the ubuntu wiki may have the answer you're looking for | 01:08 |
| fade_ | yeah been searching my ass off. guess i'll have to make a post | 01:09 |
| sjm | fade_, you can't put them back in the NAS to do the copy? | 01:09 |
| renedox | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI | 01:09 |
| collabra | ems: 32 instead of 64,... or is it the same file. | 01:09 |
| versuchsanstalt | MTec007: can you imagine? everytime i boot the plague it asks me about daylight savings time. and i'm not kidding. (doesnt apply for my work situation) | 01:09 |
| fade_ | i guess i could, but i was hoping to avoid an all-night process of copying 3tb of data via LAN | 01:10 |
| renedox | it is for 9.10 but I found things generally work in future versions when it comes to video drivers | 01:10 |
| fade_ | also, there's the issue of "i want to be able to do this" | 01:10 |
| ems | collabra, same file | 01:10 |
| vfw | ehcah: See: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/tag/slax/ | 01:11 |
| fluvvell | renedox, yes I was just worried it didn't make a lot of clarity with lucid. | 01:11 |
| Tweaky | oh no someone instlled the proprietary ati driver? | 01:11 |

| renedox | Tweaky: someone trying to ;) | 01:11 |
| shiv_ | Hi folks, I have 2 partitions one with Win7 and other with ubuntu. I need to format the Win7 and reinstall. I know I will lose grub with this. How do I get the grub back after I am done reinstalling win7 on win partiton leaving ubuntu alone | 01:12 |
| sjm | fade_, I might try to stick them in the NAS and look at the config there with mdadm and such to see if I could replicate the config on my box (but realistically, I'd probably be done sooner with the copy over the LAN). | 01:12 |
| MTec007 | versuchsanstalt, yeah windows is pretty bad but its good enough for my 3 year old to play on.. its an old laptop | 01:12 |
| jrib | !grub2 | shiv_ | 01:12 |
| ubottu | shiv_: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Ubuntu 9.10. For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 01:12 |
| fluvvell | renedox, other forums suggest that the open source drivers are ok. Hmm, just worried his slowdown might be elsewhere | 01:12 |
| Tweaky | i would recommend against installing the propriatary ati drivers they ar nothing but trouble | 01:12 |
| fade_ | yeah, i guess LAN copy is the way to go :) | 01:12 |
| sjm | !grub | shiv_ | 01:12 |
| ubottu | shiv_: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards. | 01:12 |
| renedox | fluvvell: yeah.. me too | 01:12 |
| renedox | fluvvell: video drivers might be a good place to start though, cause ems is also getting the same thing on windows and a driver install fixes it | 01:13 |
| fluvvell | renedox, however the pdf is saying there are quite a few libraries that need to be there before the .run works. | 01:13 |
| fade_ | on a more ubuntu-related note: How would i go about setting up networking in ubuntu such that i can access my server via LAN whilst being able to stay connected to the net (via wireless)? I've heard someone talk about subnet mask and such, but i'm pretty clueless | 01:13 |
| Andorin | Seahorse is being a bit of a pain. I got tired of having to enter a password on login to unlock my keyring, so I set the password to match my login password hoping it would automatically unlock... now neither the new password nor the old password works. | 01:14 |
| renedox | fluvvell: what's the link to the .pdf again? I didn't open it | 01:14 |
| shiv_ | sjm, jrib sounds good. Thanks a lot! | 01:14 |
| fade_ | atm if both connections are active, none of them work | 01:14 |
| kavurt | can you guys recommend me a charting software? openoffice calc is not doing what i want | 01:14 |
| fluvvell | renedox, XFree86-Mesa-libGL,libstdc++, libgcc, XFree86-libs, fontconfig, freetype, zlib, gcc | 01:14 |
| sjm | fade_, if it's all on the same network, it should just work. | 01:15 |
| renedox | fluvvell: oh damn.. lol -_-; | 01:15 |
| versuchsanstalt | kavurt: there is gnumeric, for example | 01:15 |
| fluvvell | renedox, would envy-ng be an easier solution - does it still do ATI ? | 01:15 |
| fade_ | well it's not. The internet is only reachable via wireless. My server is connected to a "offline" lan: My Computer <-> Router <-> server | 01:16 |
| kavurt | versuchsanstalt: is gnumeric better than calc? | 01:16 |
| versuchsanstalt | kavurt: define "better". | 01:16 |
| undecim | What's the proper way to have a file included in the initramfs so that it's there every time it's updated? | 01:16 |
| renedox | fluvvell: not sure, I use nvidia and only troubleshooted ATI once but it wasn't this problem :S | 01:16 |
| versuchsanstalt | kavurt: also, are you sure that calc can not do what you want it to do? | 01:17 |
| fade_ | this is to avoid Wifi speeds when migrating to new disks on my server *quake* | 01:17 |
| fluvvell | renedox, me too - but I have a couple of clients with ATI, again as you say, it wasn't this particular problem | 01:17 |
| porqueeeee | I've just upgraded to lucid lynx and my usb ports are acting very badly, file transfers to usb drives never finish | 01:17 |
| versuchsanstalt | kavurt: you could ask about that in an openoffice channel | 01:17 |
| ugliefrog | whats a good simple webcam app | 01:17 |
| sjm | fade_, does your server (qnap?) do dhcp? | 01:17 |
| Andorin | ugliefrog: Cheese | 01:17 |
| porqueeeee | which is frustrating as I've just got venture brothers ep 9 and I can't watch it on my divx player ;__; | 01:17 |
| fluvvell | ems, can you do a ps aux and paste the output to the pastebin ? | 01:17 |
| ugliefrog | Andorin, ty ill try it out | 01:18 |
| shiv_ | kavurt, wine is always there to help with ms exel for really heavy duty stuff R can help as well | 01:18 |
| Marine | Marine is gaming. !gameinfo for more info. | 01:18 |
| versuchsanstalt | kavurt: or maybe even here, depending on how specific and super gnarly specialistic the problem is. | 01:18 |
| fade_ | it receives dhcp (ip address yes?) from the router, i think | 01:18 |
| ems | fluvvell, i sure can hold one | 01:18 |
| fade_ | and aye, it's a qnap | 01:18 |
| versuchsanstalt | kavurt: and like shiv_ says, wine has come a long way | 01:18 |
| sjm | fade_, the router is also the AP? | 01:18 |
| fade_ | no | 01:18 |
| porqueeeee | please, I need to be able to use usb | 01:18 |
| fluvvell | ems, *one* ;-) | 01:19 |
| ems | fluvvell, one? | 01:19 |
| renedox | lol | 01:19 |
| fluvvell | ems, sry lol | 01:19 |
| fade_ | our main network (with inet access) is in a different room. I don't have cables set up to this room, so connecting via wireless. I temporarily have my qnap set up in my room next to my desktop to migrate files. | 01:20 |
| Andorin | Hey guys, I changed the password on my keyring in Seahorse, and neither the new nor the old passwords are working. Any idea what to do? | 01:20 |
| kavurt | versuchsanstalt: i can do charts with calc. but i can't give the shape i want. i want to see the values vertically. but it shows only horizontaly | 01:20 |
| fluvvell | this job needs humour | 01:20 |
| sjm | fade_, setup the router to be on a different network than the wireless (e.g. if wireless is 192.168.1.0/24, then set the router to 192.168.2.0/24). | 01:20 |
| collabra | fluvvell: he has all those prereqs you mentioned earlier,... or,... ? | 01:20 |
| fade_ | ok cool | 01:20 |
| ems | fluvvell, http://pastebin.com/ptwyQcaW | 01:21 |
| renedox | fluvvell: what job? | 01:21 |
| fluvvell | collabra, good question - but does he really need proprietory drivers, - or is his slowdown elsewhere ? | 01:21 |
| fluvvell | renedox, lol ! | 01:21 |
| shiv_ | kavurt, in that case I think you just need to put the original data in diff ways like change rows to colums and vice versa if I understand right. Just play around harder I guess | 01:21 |
| sjm | fade_, then, if they are on different networks it should just work, but don't put in a gateway in the router config. | 01:21 |
| versuchsanstalt | kavurt: maybe ask in #openoffice.org? | 01:22 |
| fade_ | thanks a lot, sjm! I'll try this out! :) | 01:22 |
| fluvvell | renedox, process might be a better phrase | 01:22 |
| fluvvell | *word* | 01:22 |

| tgp1994 | eppa: Hrm... I don't know what AWS is, but, do you have a normal monitor connected to what ever machine this is? | 01:34 |

| bstarek | thune3, thanks, how about a non-empty folder? | 01:53 |
| thune3 | bstarek: you want to remove everything including the folder? because I don't like to suggest recursive delete here as root, i would suggest changing all files in that dir to be owned by your user. chown -R bstarek:bstarek dirname , but that is only if you want to remove/change everything. Again, must be careful | 01:55 |
| bstarek | thune3, it is not a important folder dont worry :) | 01:57 |

I'm on the phone with the user, who finds in trouble to press a key precisely in the very short span when the "GRUB Loading" message shows.

| fluvvell | ems, thats in the deep end. ;-) | 02:08 |
| ems | ActionParsnip, gyache isnt in the software manager. should i aptitude for it? | 02:08 |
| ems | fluvvell, oh damn well im a newbie lol | 02:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Guest34371: i always advise that link, seems to make ipod work nice. Not tested it as I am not an iSheep | 02:08 |
| ems | fluvvell, i dont even know how to use grep hehe | 02:08 |
| The_Paco | I try to hdparm -I /dev/sr0 and get "HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(identify) failed: Invalid exchange" | 02:08 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: an iSheep heh :) :D | 02:09 |
| fluvvell | ems, its not too hard to get a web page | 02:09 |
| The_Paco | iCount iSheep iSleep | 02:09 |
| fluvvell | ems, grep is very cool. It looks for things within files or output streams. For the geekier linux stuff there are o'rielly books that are pretty mean. | 02:10 |
| ZekeS | ... ok, now for my stupid question: mplayer w/ SMplayer suffers quite a bit of frame skip playing HD video, even with VDPAU enabled. (works fine in Windows) - what sorta things can I do to try to fix it? :| | 02:10 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: they are rubbish, but people wjo like shiny over functionality buy them. What can I say | 02:10 |
| ZekeS | ems: command_that_outputs | grep foo | 02:10 |
| Guest34371 | yeah, actionparsnip: that link is for older ubuntu | 02:11 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: the Apple vender lock in is rather strong, just like Microsoft, and yeah stuff from cowen would be more Desktop Linux friendly, since the open formats and so on | 02:11 |
| fluvvell | hey irc channel - whats the best ubuntu paperback book around? | 02:11 |
| Izinucs | !manual | fluvvell | 02:12 |
| ubottu | fluvvell: The Ubuntu Manual will help you become familiar with everyday tasks such as surfing the web, listening to music and scanning documents. With an emphasis on easy to follow instructions, it is suitable for all levels of experience. http://ubuntu-manual.org/ | 02:12 |
| Izinucs | fluvvell: it's free | 02:12 |
| fluvvell | he he. Thanks Izinucs, I've heard of it too :-) | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | Guest34371: Banshee can proably sync your Ipod | 02:12 |
| Guest34371 | ok? | 02:13 |
| The_Paco | I guess my question should be where should I submit a bug-report and what would they want in it to get an idea of what's going on? This is a driver/kernel issue I'm thinking. | 02:13 |
| fluvvell | ems, do you have a laser printer ? | 02:13 |
| Paddy_NI | fluvvell, If you are looking for something more in-depth I would recommend asking on the forums to get a good general poll | 02:13 |
| undecim | How can I include a specific file in the initrd? | 02:13 |
| Guest34371 | sebsebseb: installing now... | 02:13 |
| Izinucs | The_Paco: how do you know .. what package was effected? | 02:13 |
| sebsebseb | Guest34371: also in the future it is a good idea when using Desktop Linux in particular to buy players that support open formats and that are also Linux distro friendly such as, what cowen sell | 02:13 |
| Guest34371 | what is cowen? | 02:13 |
| ActionParsnip | Guest34371: thats all I got. I'd just add the PPA and update what is offered. | 02:14 |
| sebsebseb | Guest34371: a company who sell good players, that work well with Desktop Linux :) | 02:14 |
| ActionParsnip | it's cowon ;) | 02:14 |
| ActionParsnip | Guest34371: did you buy the ipod yourself? | 02:14 |
| Guest34371 | i just wanted something to read books on and do some light internet | 02:14 |
| ZekeS | http://www.jetaudio.com/ | 02:14 |
| Guest34371 | music is secondary but yeah i listen to audio books too | 02:14 |
| sebsebseb | Guest34371: ah yes ebooks, they have stuff for that even, if I remember correctly, been a while since I looked at their site | 02:14 |
| fluvvell | ActionParsnip, do you know how to unbreak an ipod touch I told lucid to initialise (new) | 02:15 |
| Guest34371 | ipod touch seemed like the perfect fit. nice interface, nice screen, nice price; i just need to dump some files on it from linux without booting up the windows bullshit | 02:15 |
| ems | fluvvell, might you know how to check if my sound is working. Apparently it is not. | 02:15 |
| sebsebseb | Guest34371: Apple stuff doesn't always just work with Linux distros, because Apple doesn't support them | 02:15 |
| The_Paco | Izinucs: The dvd-rom completely stops working/responding within a minute or two of ubuntu accessing/mounting it. Only way to get it back is total shutdown. Restart means the bios won't find it. I'm running vista dualboot and it has no problems like it, I just got done testing it over there. | 02:15 |
| Izinucs | The_Paco: file bugs directly on launchpad.(net? org?) | 02:15 |
| ems | ActionParsnip, gyache isnt in the software manager. should i aptitude for it? | 02:16 |
| sebsebseb | Guest34371: as far as I know you can have a Touch working, but might have to do something first, before it works | 02:16 |
| The_Paco | kay, thanks | 02:16 |
| NOMADICUS | I am just wondering what this will look like after I send it. | 02:16 |
| ActionParsnip | ems: its not ni the repo but there are repos for it, or you can compile | 02:16 |
| The_Paco | I'll idle here a bit, try to soak up some experience thru osmosis.... plus I'll probably also have questions there too | 02:16 |
| Izinucs | The_Paco: yea.. check launchpad and search for your model.. you could also search on ubuntuforums.org by your model cd/dvd and see if there are issues with it. | 02:16 |
| Guest34371 | sebsebseb: from all the docs it looks like it is SUPPOSED to work, but nobody mentions the 4.1 ios that just came out. i think 4.1 broke all the syncing software | 02:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Guest34371: sure but its made by one of the most shortsighted, ignorant companys around (Apple inc.) | 02:16 |
| fluvvell | ems, try sound preferences, you might find its muted. | 02:16 |
| sebsebseb | Guest34371: ah right yeah bingo | 02:17 |
| sebsebseb | Guest34371: thats probably it | 02:17 |
| The_Paco | Izinucs, will do. bbiab | 02:17 |
| sebsebseb | Guest34371: used to work, untill Apple broke the support | 02:17 |
| sebsebseb | Guest34371: that was expected though, that they would eventually brake the support | 02:17 |
| ems | lol fluvvell . you're flawless tonight | 02:17 |
| Guest34371 | sebsebseb: i'm just trying to confirm that that is what happened | 02:18 |
| sebsebseb | Guest34371: Apple support Mac OS X, and sometimes Windows, and they don't really care about other OS's, even though Mac OS X was based on FreeBSD | 02:18 |
| ems | ActionParsnip, well if im a newbie at this, i wont even attempt to compilelol | 02:18 |
| sebsebseb | Guest34371: may be able to run a Windows virtual machine, and use Itunes in that for it | 02:19 |
| Guest34371 | yeah i know steve jobs is a dick, blah blah blah. but i also know the linux guys outsmart them all and eventually everything works just fine | 02:19 |
| * ZekeS resumes beating mplayer w/ a sledgehammer | 02:20 | |
| ems | ah. ppa is just like aptitude for debian | 02:20 |
| ActionParsnip | ems: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-gyachi-in-ubuntu-9-10-karmic.html has a directory for Lucid too | 02:20 |
| ems | same thing i think | 02:20 |
| ActionParsnip | ems: no, a ppa is a 3rd party repo | 02:20 |
| ActionParsnip | ems: you can install apps off of a ppa using aptitude | 02:20 |
| ZekeS | or synaptic for that matter | 02:21 |
| gdb | Mac OS X isn't based on FreeBSD. | 02:21 |
| fluvvell | ems, ubuntu has all debian commands | 02:21 |
| sebsebseb | gdb: no? well loads of people say it is | 02:21 |
| gdb | Nope, it sure wasn't. | 02:21 |
| tensorpudding | It has borrowed some FreeBSD code, but it's not based on FreeBSD | 02:22 |
| Guest34371 | it was originally a MACH microkernel with BSD shit on top of that | 02:22 |
| gdb | Mac OS X is based on NeXTSTEP, the kernel is mach, and some portions of the userland come from FreeBSD, other parts from NetBSD. | 02:22 |
| ems | ActionParsnip, I got it all except: sudo apt-get install gyachi (result: couldnt find package gyachi) | 02:22 |
| tensorpudding | NeXTSTEP borrowed from 4.3 BSD and Mach, with a lot of brand new stuff on top | 02:22 |
| IdleOne | Guest34371: Please keep the language clean | 02:22 |
| gdb | Interestingly enough, the operating system on the Apple Time Capsule *is* NetBSD. | 02:22 |
| gdb | What tensorpudding said. ;-) | 02:22 |
| ActionParsnip | ems: did you run: sudo apt-get update | 02:23 |
| tensorpudding | For instance, the widget and graphics stuff is completely unique. | 02:23 |
| ems | ActionParsnip, correct | 02:23 |
| Guest34371 | IdleOne: what is clean? I'm not a native speaker sorry I don't know your customs | 02:23 |
| gdb | Now I can understand FreeBSD and/or FOSS fans taking some pride in having some of their work in Mac OS X, but it wasn't based on FreeBSD. Anyway, this is all terribly off topic, but I find the power of this myth interesting. | 02:23 |
| ActionParsnip | ems: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1466864 | 02:23 |
| ems | well now that i am not slower then 5 turtles. i can go tosites | 02:24 |
| ems | one second | 02:24 |
| IdleOne | Guest34371: words like shit and other swear words are not acceptable in Ubuntu irc channels | 02:24 |
| Guest34371 | for the record, whoever suggested banshee: no it does not recognize the ipud | 02:25 |
| The_Paco | ah HA | 02:25 |
| psusi | hehe, OSX is based on freebsd the way windows NT is based on VMS... which is to say, not really at all... yet for some reason often is described as such | 02:25 |
| sebsebseb | Guest34371: I think it might have some kind of config or another program, might have to just use Windows in a vm for it or something | 02:25 |
| marvin | vms? | 02:25 |
| peepsalot | where can i find the md5 sums for the iso images? | 02:25 |
| gp5st_ | i have an eeePC running netbook remix. The wirless icon in the top bar has a red exclamation point , and when clicked just says networking disabled. any ideas of how to fix this? the led for the wireless is on. when plugged in it doesn't seem to get a dhcp addy either | 02:26 |
| sebsebseb | Guest34371: uh above, might work after some kind of config, | 02:26 |
| Izinucs | The_Paco: ah ha? did you find an answer? | 02:26 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: Virtual machines :) | 02:26 |
| Jordan_U | !md5sums | peepsalot | 02:26 |
| ubottu | peepsalot: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes for the md5sums of Ubuntu discs. | 02:26 |
| marvin | thanks | 02:26 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: lets you run an OS inside an OS | 02:26 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: for example you could run Windows inside Ubuntu, and it would work fine for most apps, 3D games for example would be an issue though | 02:26 |
| peepsalot | thanks Jordan_U | 02:26 |
| gp5st | sorry got kicked on that computer, on another now | 02:26 |
| Jordan_U | peepsalot: You're welcome. | 02:27 |
| The_Paco | Izinucs, asus runs the dvdrom on my model laptop in an enhanced RAID-capable/emulated design. I can set to a standard IDE-style emulation in the BIOS and that SHOULD work... about to test | 02:27 |
| gp5st | i really can't find a way to enable networking. ifup doesn't know about an eth0 or en0 interface:-\ | 02:27 |
| rypervenche | gp5st: which eeePC is it? | 02:27 |
| tensorpudding | Virtualized hardware is limited, unfortunately. | 02:27 |
| peepsalot | last attempt to burn the image failed. i guess i'll just try again. | 02:27 |
| marvin | yea i've been trying to get wine working for a while | 02:27 |
| psusi | no, not V.M. pl, VMS was an old unix like OS | 02:27 |
| marvin | no luck | 02:27 |
| gp5st | rypervenche 1005HAB | 02:27 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: oh right what you trying to run in Wine? | 02:27 |
| Izinucs | The_Paco: cool.. glad you found an answer | 02:28 |
| marvin | homeworld | 02:28 |
| rypervenche | gp5st: how long have you been using Ubuntu on it? | 02:28 |
| The_Paco | fyi Izinucs it's a G50VT if anyone else comes in with this problem, but it's a relatively rare system. Was overshadowed by eeepc's | 02:28 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: a game? | 02:28 |
| marvin | rts game | 02:28 |
| marvin | old | 02:28 |
| The_Paco | brb, rebooting | 02:28 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: ok so 2D? | 02:28 |
| psusi | MS then hired one of its principal architects to design winnt | 02:28 |
| gp5st | rypervenche: i installed it a few months ago, used it, and it sat for a while, and now i'm using it again | 02:28 |
| marvin | no 3d space combat | 02:28 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: ok well 3D games, well good luck getting them working in Wine as well, not just vm's | 02:29 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: I mean Wnidows games | 02:29 |
| gp5st | rypervenche: it's 10.04 in /etc/issue | 02:29 |
| tensorpudding | virtual machines don't get native graphics hardware access, so they'll be terribly slow | 02:29 |
| sebsebseb | !info playonlinux | 02:29 |
| ubottu | playonlinux (source: playonlinux): front-end for Wine. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 3.7.3-1 (lucid), package size 747 kB, installed size 2000 kB | 02:29 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: playonlinux might help some how, but probably not quite | 02:29 |
| marvin | hmm... what about java? | 02:29 |
| tensorpudding | Is Cedega still around? | 02:30 |
| ems | ActionParsnip, they dont have it for 32bit :( | 02:30 |
| tensorpudding | You might consider that if you really want to game on Linux | 02:30 |
| ActionParsnip | tensorpudding: indeed, its not free in any way | 02:30 |
| sebsebseb | tensorpudding: yep and Codeweavers Crossover games, those are meant to be bought though | 02:30 |
| ActionParsnip | ems: dig around, you'll find something | 02:30 |
| marvin | cedega? | 02:30 |
| tensorpudding | !java | marvin | 02:30 |
| ubottu | marvin: To install a Java runtime on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java. For the Sun Java products and browser plugin, search for the sun-java6- packages in the !partner repository on Lucid (which must be enabled), or !multiverse repository on older releases. | 02:30 |
| rypervenche | gp5st: Check this out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Netbooks#Asus%20Eee%20PC%201005HA | 02:30 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: yeah there are paid for versions of Wine basicalley | 02:30 |
| ems | ActionParsnip, ok but before i begin. will it work for AIM the webcam? | 02:30 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: that can be better sometimes | 02:30 |
| tensorpudding | Cedega is a pay service that provides a special version of Wine that supposedly works a lot better with games | 02:31 |
| * ZekeS burns his Ubuntu media playback >:( | 02:31 | |
| marvin | ah | 02:31 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: also Codeweavers Crossover Games is paid for, but meant to work better with games | 02:31 |
| ActionParsnip | marvin: cedega is a paid for wine equivelant and its not bad, if it suits your needs then shell out for it | 02:31 |
| gp5st | rypervenche: i can't install anything since i don't have a network | 02:31 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: and theres a Codweavers Crossover Linux that can also run games | 02:31 |
| ActionParsnip | ems: aim, i thought you said yahoo. not sure about aim | 02:31 |
| marvin | interesting | 02:32 |
| gp5st | rypervenche: i guess i could find a deb and install it off removable media, i hate doing that because of dependencies:-\ maybe i should reboot it a few times and see if i can connect and then install it? | 02:32 |
| === jamescarr_ is now known as jamescarr | ||
| marvin | what else is wine bad at? | 02:33 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: Wine is a great program, but | 02:33 |
| gp5st | marvin: being an emulator :: ducks :: | 02:33 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: the program support it has has been reverse enginnered | 02:33 |
| sebsebseb | gp5st: if you mean the Wine is not an emulater thing, marvin won't understand that yet | 02:33 |
| gp5st | oh, sorry:( | 02:33 |
| sebsebseb | gp5st: and now i'll explain it | 02:33 |
| marvin | i read up on that already | 02:33 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: the developers of Wine call it a compatability layour, so yeah they say WIne is not an emulator | 02:34 |
| rypervenche | Oh gp5st | 02:34 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: also the program support Wine has, has been reverse enginnered, so thats very impressive | 02:34 |
| === ceej_ is now known as ceej | ||
| sebsebseb | marvin: however as a result, it means loads of Windows apps still won't just work properly with it | 02:34 |
| rypervenche | gp5st: You mean you can't update anything since the driver isn't working for wifi? | 02:34 |
| renedox | fluvvell: ems went afk - i'm at work - but congratulations on getting the problem fixed :D | 02:34 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: and put simpally they can't just support Windows apps 100% properly, because of Microsoft | 02:35 |
| gp5st | rypervenche: yes, and wired networking seems to not be working either | 02:35 |
| ems | renedox, i am not afk just getting angry again hehe. and thank you! | 02:35 |
| marvin | i'm self taught so expect big gaps | 02:35 |
| renedox | ems: sorry, I went afk | 02:35 |
| rypervenche | gp5st: Hmmm...you need to use a wired network to be able to install the driver for your wireless card. | 02:35 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: so its luck really, when an app works well in Wine, without needing to be configured to first | 02:35 |
| Paddy_NI | sebsebseb, They do a damn good job though I think they get way to much negativity | 02:35 |
| ems | renedox, no proble | 02:35 |
| sebsebseb | Paddy_NI: indeed | 02:35 |
| fluvvell | ems, try empathy an all in one instant messaging client | 02:36 |
| marvin | luck? wonderful | 02:36 |
| gp5st | rypervenche: well, it worked before...and i havn't updated it since. if it's flakey sure. it's also possible the wired networking is a local issue (sometime between last month and next month dhcp support was due to be cancled in favour of registered computers) | 02:36 |
| ems | fluvvell, ya they all have video but not for aim. hehe. i am sol and so is family | 02:37 |
| edbian | marvin, Yes but it's skill when any app you want works well in Wine | 02:37 |
| gp5st | i was hoping to get love on the wirless | 02:37 |
| fluvvell | renedox, thanksems, sol ? | 02:38 |
| fluvvell | ems, sol ? | 02:38 |
| ems | fluvvell, s*** out of luck | 02:38 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: when a program works well in Wine, that is useually, because the developers of Wine, have put a lot of work into making that program work well in it | 02:38 |
| fluvvell | ems, I have skype working happily for vid chat - but don't use aim - | 02:38 |
| The_Paco | back, DVD-Rom appears to be working, yay. | 02:39 |
| Firefishe | I have a laptop with an external slide-type switch for the wi-fi. I'm running ubuntu 10.04. When I boot up, if the switch isn't in the ON position, I can't get the nm-applet to initialize the radio. Is there a way to initialize the wi-fi radio without having to reboot the entire computer? | 02:39 |
| marvin | any advice on configuring programs | 02:39 |
| marvin | ? | 02:39 |
| rypervenche | gp5st: Yeah, sorry I can't help anymore than that. | 02:39 |
| ActionParsnip | Firefishe: rmmod then modprobe the driver module | 02:39 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: also really LInux distros are meant to replace something called Unix not Windows, but now days for many they can replace Windows as well, depending on what they want to do on a computer, but loads of people will still keep WIndows around as well, because of apps they want | 02:39 |
| Firefishe | ActionParsnip: Thanks | 02:39 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: as for configuring programs, I have tried before, and sadly it is not an easy thing to do for Wine | 02:40 |
| gp5st | ryervenche: it's ok, thanks for trying:) | 02:40 |
| disappearedng_ | how come ubuntu keeps asking me to upgrade aka "partial upgrade" when 10.10 is not even out yet? I am on 10.04 lucid | 02:40 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: hence why I would useaully if I wnat a Windows app and Wine didn't work, virtual machine of WIndows, or pshyical install of Windows | 02:40 |
| The_Paco | I plan to keep my windows in a virtualbox when I feel comfortable with linux :D, easy-peasy if it works | 02:40 |
| fluvvell | ems, apart from the o'rielly book on apache webserver, and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/httpd.html - there are probably heaps of books but the web pages give the low down on ubuntu specifics. | 02:40 |
| marvin | i just have it on my netbook | 02:40 |
| sebsebseb | disappearedng_: thats not abou 10.10 | 02:40 |
| sebsebseb | disappearedng_: thats just saying that it coudn't install all the updates for some reason, should do those later though | 02:40 |
| acovrig | I can't add myself to the audio group, why? | 02:41 |
| disappearedng_ | how should I go about fixing it ? | 02:41 |
| marvin | so no big loss | 02:41 |
| ActionParsnip | disappearedng_: 10.10 beta is out. Partial upgrades are not advised nor supported | 02:41 |
| sebsebseb | !wine | marvin | 02:41 |
| ubottu | marvin: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu | 02:41 |
| disappearedng_ | then how do I tell it to stop bugging me | 02:41 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: the second part what? | 02:41 |
| sebsebseb | ActionParsnip: it will say about partial upgrade, when can't install all the security updates from the repo | 02:42 |
| ActionParsnip | sebsebseb: partial upgrades are not advised as yuo can break your OS | 02:42 |
| ActionParsnip | !partial | 02:42 |
| ActionParsnip | hmm, though | 02:42 |

| TuxOtaku | Bus 002 Device 003: ID 0a12:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode) | 02:42 |
| fluvvell | disappearedng_ , I think you'll find you havn't completed a previous upgrade | 02:43 |
| The_Paco | mavin: if the wine project is like it was a year and a half ago, if you're not proficient in linux, it's frustrating. Oracle Virtualbox is closed(ish) but free. I've been running distros in it inside windows for a while and am tonight starting/trying running an XP install inside ubuntu with it | 02:43 |
| acovrig | nevermind, I have to relogin ssh for group changes to show lol | 02:43 |
| TuxOtaku | I keep telling blueman to turn bluetooth on, but it just turns itself back off again | 02:43 |
| fluvvell | disappearedng_, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, sudo apt-get --fix-missing, sudo apt-get install -f | 02:43 |
| tensorpudding | There is an open-source version of VirtualBox | 02:43 |
| fluvvell | tensorpudding, and its pretty crappy | 02:44 |
| tensorpudding | as well as the closed version which is available from Oracle. | 02:44 |
| The_Paco | I saw that in the apt-list... I was concerned it might suck... lol I guess I was right | 02:44 |
| marvin | familiar with v box for xboxes | 02:44 |
| fluvvell | the full one from oracle has an increasingly scary license, but it works really well | 02:44 |

| sebsebseb | !virtualbox | marvin | 02:47 |
| The_Paco | now all I need is a way to import all the radio stations from Radio?Sure! into Rhythmbox... | 02:47 |
| ubottu | marvin: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from the package 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 02:47 |
| disappearedng_ | ok I did fix-missing, but then when I open up update manager it still asks me to do partial upgrade (which I *don't* want to do) | 02:47 |
| sebsebseb | marvin: both versions are free as in price, it meant free as in freedom the bot facotid | 02:47 |
| sebsebseb | !freedom | 02:47 |
| ubottu | freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing | 02:47 |
| rafaelsoaresbr | hello, please help me with this error: "serial8250: too much work for irq19" http://pastebin.com/stXTj3Ks | 02:48 |

| cgroza | anyone | 02:52 |
| ActionParsnip | marvin: suse is a different distro but is still linux like ubuntu, linux general chat is in #ubuntu-offtopic | 02:52 |
| ActionParsnip | cgroza: should be ran at login, not startup | 02:52 |
| cgroza | ActionParsnip, whats the difference? | 02:53 |
| The_Paco | no one has to be logged in when the computer starts? | 02:53 |
| ActionParsnip | cgroza: the startup stuff starts before the login screen. There is a list of use apps which run at logon too, the startup stuff runs as root | 02:54 |

I had some smbfs mounts for my login in /etc/fstab with the options "user=neil,password=xxx,uid=1000,gid=1000" after login the wi-fi comes up (but not before).... then the system auto mount the smbfs partition (thats ok).... but when I turn the laptop OFF... at logout it seems that the wi-fi is disconected before the smbfs partition are unmounted... causing the computer to take an age to s | 02:55 |

| ActionParsnip | cgroza: no worries duder | 02:57 |

| watisdis | i should have never upgraded... | 03:10 |

| majorscurvy | i know lol, i have a wubi install so i have not gotten around to upgrading, Lucid won't install on my system | 03:10 |

| majorscurvy | gotta go, bye all | 03:10 |
| DAGr8 | ok sorry for repeating | 03:10 |
| renedox | watisdis: doesn't mean it'll never happen | 03:10 |
| watisdis | I was answering tensorpudding, he asked what is wrong | 03:10 |
| acovrig | fluvvell: yea, rawplay is the culprit, not /dev/dsp; mpg123 works fine, but rawplay doesn't, I tried `mpg123 -s *mp3|mpg123` and doesn't work so I tried `mpg123 -s *mp3|aplay` and got sound, but not the right thing | 03:11 |
| crucialhoax | watisdis: Try booting a livecd of a different distro and see if it does the same thing | 03:11 |
| watisdis | I have karmic still on a cd, I'll try that | 03:11 |
| IdleOne | DAGr8: same link but again I have no idea. | 03:11 |
| Kane_hart | tensorpudding yes I am | 03:11 |
| tensorpudding | Kane_hart: and you installed Java through the software center? | 03:11 |
| crucialhoax | watisdis: If it does the same thing I might propose usb ports failing. stuff happens dude | 03:11 |
| Kane_hart | I use ssh and not sure what I did <3 | 03:11 |

| ng0n | perhaps i need to find #wubi. | 03:39 |
| ZekeS | afeijo: sorry I didnt check the link :| | 03:40 |
| ZekeS | Just the guide | 03:40 |
| ZekeS | looks fun ^^ | 03:40 |
| asdfasdfasdfasdf | Blue1, get a pro one. don't really thin amarok 1.4X eq was that great ^^, though yes it would be cool to put one down there, and add the possibility of moving buttons down too. | 03:40 |

| kneaux | (i know there's a linux version now, i need it in wine so i can get adobe digital editions, so i can pirate books) | 03:42 |
| tensorpudding | kneaux: Maybe check out the appDB | 03:43 |
| rallias | how do i remedy the error of Could not find XOpenDisplay in -lX11. | 03:43 |
| j3rg | anyone does programming in here ....sepcifically for linux? | 03:44 |
| kneaux | tensorpudding: well i'm googling the answer (so meta) and apparently there's a standalone installer, i just can't figure out where the latest version is supposed to be :\ | 03:44 |
| Ivanrad | hey all | 03:44 |
| tensorpudding | j3rg: you should probably check out one of the language-specific channels on freenode | 03:44 |
| Ivanrad | anyone familiar with wubi? | 03:44 |
| kneaux | the error i'm getting has to do with google being incapable of installing something from the file you actually download | 03:44 |
| j3rg | ok thanks tensorpudding | 03:44 |
| Ivanrad | ? | 03:44 |

| mast` | I have a bit of an issue after updating to Maverick. I'm using an ATI card with the propriatery drivers and after the first reboot I got stuck in text mode, so I purge'd the drivers and rebooted in safe mode then reinstalled the Ubuntu/maverick drivers downloaded from the ATI website but no luck. Anyone has an idea what to do? | 03:46 |
| Ivanrad | and im using wubi to install the netbook Os of ubuntu | 03:46 |
| Ivanrad | will this work | 03:46 |
| tensorpudding | !ubuntu+1 | mast` | 03:46 |
| ubottu | mast`: Maverick Meerkat is the codename for Ubuntu 10.10 - Maverick is NOT released and is NOT stable - Discussion and support only in #ubuntu+1 | 03:46 |
| mast` | okay thanks | 03:46 |
| Blue1 | mast`: you might want to /join #ubuntu+1 for 10.10 issues | 03:46 |
| Tinman_usa | rallias, huh ? it doesnt say anything, do I need to install ndiswarpper or something, the wifi suddenly stopped working after I installd that | 03:47 |
| tensorpudding | Ivanrad: Wubi installs Ubuntu inside Windows | 03:47 |
| OriginalMVP | Anyone know how to put the Liquorix kernel on Ubuntu? | 03:47 |
| Ivanrad | no but i directed it to my SSD | 03:47 |
| Ivanrad | will that work? | 03:47 |
| ZekeS | It should be fine | 03:47 |
| tensorpudding | Ivanrad: directed what? | 03:47 |
| rallias | tinman_usa: i am guessing you should try a system wide update | 03:47 |
| Ivanrad | the install of wubi to my SSD | 03:47 |
| ZekeS | Wubi creates the entire linux file system inside a container file | 03:47 |
| frobisher | Ivanrad: too complicated for me<I just go to the website and download it. | 03:47 |
| Tinman_usa | rallias, the new Ubuntu hang my system | 03:47 |
| tensorpudding | Ivanrad: I guess it should be fine? | 03:47 |
| rallias | tinman_usa: or a dist-upgrade | 03:47 |
| ems | fluvvell, still around? | 03:47 |
| ZekeS | (don't delete that container) | 03:47 |
| ZekeS | (;) | 03:47 |
| Ivanrad | ya | 03:47 |
| Ivanrad | the comp will boot to the SSD | 03:48 |
| ng0n | anyone know how to edit BCD boot menu in Win 7 ? | 03:48 |
| rallias | tinman_usa: try try again | 03:48 |
| tensorpudding | Ivanrad: There might be issues if you try booting without the SSD attached | 03:48 |
| Ivanrad | so im sure its installing it as an operating system | 03:48 |
| Ivanrad | it will be attached | 03:48 |
| tensorpudding | ng0n: there is a program EasyBCD which does it | 03:48 |
| kj4 | i'm back to see how it goes here. been gone for long time | 03:48 |
| abhijit | !windows | ng0n | 03:48 |
| ubottu | ng0n: For discussion on Microsoft software, or help with same, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubottu equivalents | 03:48 |
| Tinman_usa | rallias, which system you using ? | 03:48 |
| rallias | tinman_usa: ubuntu 10.04.1 | 03:49 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: this is how I put a working ubuntu onto a flash drive: http://pkill-9.com/wordpress/?p=51 | 03:49 |
| Tinman_usa | rallias, ok this is the second time I am upgrading to that version, last time it froze my mouse, my graphics card and much more | 03:49 |
| rallias | is there any sensitive data on the machine? | 03:50 |
| Tinman_usa | rallias, even now it shows This computer is currently using the AMD 'fglrx' graphics driver. No version of this driver is available that works with your hardware in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. | 03:50 |
| ng0n | tensorpudding. tried that. it's wubi entry doesn't call /ubuntu/winboot/wubildr | 03:50 |
| Ivanrad | so basically here is my situtation...i have an hp mini 1116nr .. i just got my runcoreSSD i connected the RUNCore ssd to my windows comp...and i opened WUBI and im installing ubuntu netbook onto the SSD.. my question is once its done installing the OS on the SSD will it boot up properly on the netbook | 03:50 |
| imperfect- | Is lmsensors the way to go to get cpu temp's and such? | 03:50 |
| ng0n | thanks use all. | 03:50 |
| rallias | tinman_usa: is there any sensitive data on the machine? | 03:50 |
| ng0n | will try # widows. uggg. | 03:50 |
| Tinman_usa | rallias, no, I have all backup | 03:50 |
| afeijo | IT WORKED | 03:50 |
| rallias | tinman_usa: do you have a spare cd? | 03:50 |
| ZekeS | afeijo: nice! | 03:50 |
| afeijo | thanks ZekeS :D and all that msg me | 03:51 |
| Tinman_usa | rallias, you wnat me to do a fresh install ? I want 64 bit if possible I have 4 gig | 03:51 |
| |devicenull| | I'm trying to do a netinst, and I'm seeing "Installation step failed" while installing the base system. console reports an error related to LIBDI_4.7 not found (related to archdetect) | 03:51 |
| |devicenull| | how exactly would I go about debugging that one? I'm not really sure where to start | 03:51 |
| rallias | tinman_usa: when was your computer built? | 03:51 |
| === |devicenull| is now known as devicenull_ | ||
| Ivanrad | ? | 03:51 |
| afeijo | its nice to have a bigger screen and 4gb against my old note that have 1 gb lol | 03:51 |
| Tinman_usa | rallias, its T60, few years ago I guess | 03:51 |
| Tinman_usa | Centrino duo laptop | 03:52 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: it should since wubi runs UNDER windows | 03:52 |
| Ivanrad | ya but the netbook doesnt have any OS | 03:52 |
| rallias | tinman_usa http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.04.1/ubuntu-10.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso.torrent | 03:52 |
| Ivanrad | its just booting from the SSD | 03:52 |
| === imbezol_ is now known as imbezol | ||
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: so explain to me once again, what it is you want to do, install wubi or install linux? | 03:53 |
| frobisher | Ivanrad: It would be doutful as there is isssues with Grub. | 03:53 |
| devicenull_ | I found a debian bug related to it, nothing about it in ubuntu | 03:53 |
| Scunizi | How do I kill X .. sudo service gdm stop kills part of it.. but the nvidia binary compains something is still running.. logs show the pid but when I kill that gmd starts again.. | 03:53 |
| Tinman_usa | rallias, whats wrong with 32 version of 10.04 ? it cant detect 4 gigs ? | 03:53 |
| Tinman_usa | 32bit | 03:53 |
| imbezol | http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/i386/partimage/download | 03:53 |
| === AndrewMC is now known as SpockVulcan | ||
| rallias | tinman_usa you wanted it | 03:54 |
| tensorpudding | Nothing wrong with 32-bit Ubuntu. | 03:54 |
| Ivanrad | im installing ubuntu netbook remix from wubi onto my usb which is connected thru the USB of my other laptop.. when i put this SSD into the netbook will it work | 03:54 |
| ZekeS | Scunizi: enable Ctrl+Alt+Backspace in System > Keyboard Shortcuts :3 | 03:54 |
| imbezol | when i do a search i don't see partimage.. is it because it's i386 only? | 03:54 |
| v1valdi | 32bit cant detect more than 3.2gigs of ram | 03:54 |
| Ivanrad | Grub? | 03:54 |
| imperfect- | PAE bitches! | 03:54 |
| Tinman_usa | tensorpudding, does 64 bit Ubuntu run all 32 bit software ? | 03:54 |
| maco | !language | imperfect- | 03:54 |
| ubottu | imperfect-: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 03:54 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: wow that's way more complicated. I'd put ubuntu onto a flash drive, then boot the flash drive. | 03:54 |
| frobisher | Ivanrad Grand Unified Bootloader. | 03:54 |
| Scunizi | ZekeS: that just reboots gdm.. it doesn't stop X and only on older systems. like you said you have to enable that key combination.. but .. it doesn't kill | 03:55 |
| Scunizi | X | 03:55 |
| ZekeS | ohhhh | 03:55 |
| tensorpudding | Tinman_usa: It can run 32-bit software if it has 32-bit libraries to go with them. | 03:55 |
| ZekeS | sry :| | 03:55 |
| Ivanrad | isnt wubi installing grub onto the SSD tho? | 03:55 |
| Tinman_usa | tensorpudding, so its better for me to keep it 32 bit ? | 03:55 |
| tensorpudding | Tinman_usa: 64-bit linux can read 32-bit ELFs just fine, but they have to be linked to 32-bit libraries | 03:55 |
| ZekeS | Ivanrad: Wubi is intended for you to dual boot Windows and Linux easily with minimum install fuss | 03:55 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: wubi makes NO changes to the boot block | 03:55 |
| Ivanrad | fuk | 03:55 |
| ZekeS | It's NOT intended for any other purpose | 03:55 |
| Tinman_usa | tensorpudding, I think I like 32bit OS, so it will detect more than 3 gig RAM ? | 03:55 |
| Ivanrad | so what do u think i should do | 03:56 |
| tensorpudding | Tinman_usa: there might be problems with programs that have handcoded 32-bit assembler in them | 03:56 |
| Tinman_usa | tensorpudding, yes thats what I am thinking too | 03:56 |
| Blue1 | ZekeS: incorrect - -wubi does NOT dual boot. It runs under windows. dual boot is somehing else. | 03:56 |
| rallias | Tinman_usa: only with a specially compiled kernal | 03:56 |
| v1valdi | if you want to use more than 3gigs of ram, use 64bit | 03:56 |
| ZekeS | Blue1: sorry, it's been a while since I used it >.> | 03:56 |
| * ZekeS hides | 03:56 | |
| tensorpudding | Tinman_usa: I've only run into one program that just didn't work on 64-bit at all. | 03:56 |
| Tinman_usa | tensorpudding, should I reinstall 10.04 or upgrade 10.04 from 8.04 ? | 03:56 |
| tensorpudding | Tinman_usa: some proprietary software will have issues if it is old | 03:57 |
| tensorpudding | Tinman_usa: the 8.04 to 10.04 upgrade is well-documented, it should be fine | 03:57 |
| IdleOne | Grub? | 03:57 |
| Tinman_usa | ok here goes | 03:57 |
| Tinman_usa | hope I get my wifi back | 03:58 |
| Tinman_usa | or else I come after rallias | 03:58 |
| Tinman_usa | :D | 03:58 |
| Blue1 | Tinman_usa: did you install a back port? | 03:58 |
| Tinman_usa | Blue1, whats that ? | 03:58 |
| wrektjet | hey all. im having some difficulties getting a router to play nice with 10.04. im using the pretty popular netgear wgr614 and it used to work fine before i moved, but since i got into my new place i have no luck. not sure what the problem is as ive followed all instructions for configuring eth0 | 03:58 |
| ems | where would i be able to download drivers for my speakers to be able to work? any ideas. | 03:58 |
| Blue1 | Tinman_usa: if you don't know what that is, then you didn't install it. nvm | 03:58 |
| ZekeS | Ivanrad: this link seems relevant to your interests: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/put-ubuntu-netbook-remix-10-04-on-flash-drive-in-windows/ | 03:58 |
| ZekeS | :) | 03:59 |
| Blue1 | ZekeS: yea that is a good link | 03:59 |
| frobisher | Ivanrad: too keep you're conversation going till someone figures this out,What input "S do you have Cdro,flash ,usb. | 04:00 |
| Ivanrad | i luv u | 04:00 |
| Ivanrad | thank you | 04:00 |
| Ivanrad | soo much | 04:00 |
| ems | So anyone ? | 04:01 |
| paulo | Hi, people. I am new to this Xubuntu and I'm having trouble with my 3G connection. It freezes after a random while/ or will it be data? The last time I had 23Mb download. How can I diagnose it? | 04:03 |
| afeijo | ouch, no visual effect works lol | 04:03 |
| wrektjet | does anyone have any idea why the wired conex would work but not when plugged in via the router? | 04:03 |
| ruffleS | hey guys maverick's new default wallpaper's been released http://lh6.ggpht.com/_1QSDkzYY2vc/TI_B7w4vI9I/AAAAAAAAB7Y/hgywOYAWBW4/s400/warty-final-ubuntu.jpg :d how'd ya like it? | 04:03 |
| Blue1 | wrektjet: the router is not setup to supply dhcp? | 04:03 |
| devicenull_ | how's the upgrade path from 10.04 -> 10.10? edit apt/sources.list && aptitude dist-upgrade? | 04:04 |
| tensorpudding | 10.10 isn't out yet | 04:04 |
| Blue1 | devicenull_: I dont recommend upgrading, it is problematic. backup /etc/ and /home/ and do a clean install followed by a restore | 04:04 |
| devicenull_ | Blue1: if I could get netinst working on 10.10, that wouldnt be an issue | 04:05 |
| ruffleS | devicenull_, alt + f2 then type update-manager -cd | 04:05 |
| SpockVulcan | tensorpudding: it is in beta stage | 04:05 |
| wrektjet | blue1 well i was trying static ip to match the ipv6 settings i entered bia the networking tool | 04:05 |
| devicenull_ | but as the installer dies when I try netinst, there's not much I can do except use 10.04 and upgrade | 04:05 |
| tensorpudding | devicenull_: try using a full install? where does the installer die? | 04:06 |
| Blue1 | wrektjet: iirc ubuntu defaults to dhcp -- I use static dhcp reservations in my router via mac address so the same computer always gets the same ip. | 04:06 |
| devicenull_ | can't use a full install, no CD drive.. have to do it via PXE | 04:06 |
| devicenull_ | the installer dies at 'installing the base system' | 04:06 |
| IdleOne | !10.10 | 04:06 |
| ubottu | Maverick Meerkat is the codename for Ubuntu 10.10, due October 2010 - Maverick is NOT released and NOT Stable, discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 04:06 |
| devicenull_ | get an error in console with: LIBDI_4.7 not found (related to archdetect) | 04:07 |
| Blue1 | devicenull_: I've only played with the 10.10 livecd so far it looks like, I'll be waiting a few more weeks | 04:07 |
| tensorpudding | devicenull_: what about USB? | 04:07 |
| devicenull_ | don't have a USB drive available for it | 04:07 |
| wrektjet | blue1 well the mac address is set to that of this computer. still wont function. but even when set to dynamic it wont connect. sorta driving me nuts | 04:08 |
| tensorpudding | devicenull_: it might well be a problem with the PXE image | 04:08 |
| Blue1 | devicenull_: you can create a install usb drive for ubuntu | 04:08 |
| devicenull_ | Blue1: right, but I don't have the physical hardware to do that | 04:08 |
| Blue1 | wrektjet: what type of router, and what software ru running? | 04:09 |
| devicenull_ | tensorpudding: right, I'm gonna try the 10.04 netboot image and see what happens | 04:09 |
| Blue1 | devicenull_: scotty's disease -- I don;t think I've got the pow'r | 04:09 |
| wrektjet | blue1 pretty mainstream netgear wgr614 and ubuntu 10.04 | 04:09 |
| Blue1 | wrektjet: no what software is the router running? | 04:10 |
| wrektjet | blue1 laterst firmware from netgear. no tomato or wtvr that stuff is called | 04:11 |
| fluvvell | ems, away then back again. | 04:11 |
| Blue1 | wrektjet: so stock software then (supplied from the manufacturer?) | 04:11 |
| wrektjet | blue1 yes | 04:11 |
| ems | fluvvell, ok. np. still having an issue here trying to find a instant msgr client that can handle aim webcam video | 04:12 |
| devicenull_ | yea the 10.10 netboot stuff definitely isn't ready | 04:12 |
| Blue1 | not fam. enough with that manu. anyone good with netgear router software? | 04:12 |
| devicenull_ | the pxelinux.cfg/default file is just empty, leading to all sorts of cryptic errors | 04:12 |
| wrektjet | blue1 do u think a firmware update w/ some other software would help | 04:12 |
| acovrig | does anyone know of a rawplay alternative (rawplay doesn't work) I need to pipe raw audio and have an app play it (like `mpg123 -s *mp3|rawplay` but rawplay doesn't work for me) | 04:12 |
| Blue1 | wrektjet: I am checking to see if dd-wrt would work on it atm | 04:13 |
| Ivanrad | ok universal usb installer didnt work | 04:14 |
| Blue1 | wrektjet: looks like the site is down.. | 04:14 |
| SubCool | hey- what Folder Browers will give folder sizes? | 04:14 |
| elijah | Is the partition manager the Kubuntu installer uses the same as Ubuntu? | 04:14 |
| elijah | SubCool: Good question, I would like to know that too. | 04:15 |
| devicenull_ | well | 04:16 |
| SubCool | elijah, your answer, is yes. Kubunt is ubuntu- just with a KDE front | 04:16 |
| devicenull_ | 10.04 netinst seems to be working | 04:16 |
| devicenull_ | so something got broken in 10.10 | 04:16 |
| Blue1 | wrektjet: nope not wgr614 not supported by dd-wrt | 04:16 |
| SubCool | My system is telling me its full- and i dont know where to search to start deleting things, or resizing things. | 04:16 |
| glebihan | SubCool: use the disk usage analyser | 04:17 |
| tensorpudding | SubCool: what does df -h say | 04:17 |
| Blue1 | SubCool: try du -hs * | 04:17 |
| elijah | SubCool: Great, do you know the name of the partition manager? I want to be able to access the GUI to shrink a partition in my Kubuntu install. | 04:17 |
| tensorpudding | elijah: try gparted | 04:17 |

| Ivanrad | with a bootable Grub | 04:18 |
| Gnea | Ivanrad: it won't install? | 04:18 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: you'd need to create a bootable usb device you can do that off the livecd | 04:18 |
| tensorpudding | davefromcamp: what do you mean by "over your network"? | 04:18 |
| elijah | SubCool: My system ran out of space yesterday and the whole thing crashed, I suggest using apt-get clean to get rid of all downloaded packages | 04:18 |
| Ivanrad | i have a windows pc | 04:18 |
| Ivanrad | if i burned a live cd | 04:18 |
| Fudge | startup disk creator | 04:18 |
| davefromcamp | well I have the server running and my client on my mpd computer works fine | 04:19 |
| Ivanrad | booted from that... then selected the SSD would it install to it? | 04:19 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: okay so what prevents you from booting the livecd disc? | 04:19 |
| Ivanrad | omg | 04:19 |
| davefromcamp | I want to play from my droid | 04:19 |
| ZekeS | Or the bootable flashdrive | 04:19 |
| Ivanrad | do u not understand.... | 04:19 |
| ZekeS | for that matter | 04:19 |
| Ivanrad | I have a netbook .. i just took out the SSD | 04:19 |
| gstarx90 | how to do i get docky to use a custom icon instead of the default? | 04:19 |
| tensorpudding | davefromcamp: there is a webserver-based control thing, but it's kinda mungy | 04:19 |
| Ivanrad | i have a blank SSD formatted | 04:19 |
| Ivanrad | no data | 04:19 |
| elijah | tensorpudding: It says Gparted isn't installed, is this the same one Kubuntu uses in the installer? | 04:19 |
| tensorpudding | davefromcamp: i usually used ssh | 04:19 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: indeed I do not understand. | 04:19 |
| Ivanrad | its connected to my windows pc whihc im on now... i want to install netbook remix onto the SSD | 04:19 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: my netbook has 3 usb ports. | 04:19 |
| elijah | tensorpudding: Does Kubuntu just not install the partition manager it uses on install? | 04:19 |
| ZekeS | Ivanrad: if the netbook has a USB slot, put the Ubuntu netbook livecd on a flash drive - like on that page - then install it ON THE NETBOOK ITSELF | 04:20 |
| Ivanrad | i dont have a USB drive | 04:20 |
| Ivanrad | all i have is the SSD | 04:20 |
| Ivanrad | why cant i just install ubuntu onto the SSD from my windows | 04:20 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: and I've give you directions on how I did that with a usb drive - it's the same idea | 04:20 |
| Ivanrad | i did that | 04:20 |
| Ivanrad | it said | 04:20 |
| Ivanrad | plz insert bootable media | 04:20 |
| Ivanrad | it diddnt install it as bootable media | 04:20 |
| julian- | Ivanrad/Blue1: I've missed the context, but Wubi? | 04:20 |
| ZekeS | julian-: noooooo | 04:20 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: no one knows how to do that - -you normally boot off the livecd and go from there. | 04:21 |
| tensorpudding | Ivanrad: what do you mean by "install ubuntu onto the SSD" | 04:21 |
| Ivanrad | ok | 04:21 |
| Ivanrad | i have a netbook | 04:21 |
| Gnea | Ivanrad: did you go into your bios before it attempted to boot? | 04:21 |
| tensorpudding | Ivanrad: you want to make a partition on the SSD for Ubuntu? | 04:21 |
| Ivanrad | no | 04:21 |
| Ivanrad | no i didnt | 04:21 |
| Ivanrad | lemme try | 04:21 |
| Gnea | Ivanrad: you have to enter the bios to get it to make sure it sees the usb drive - it won't just automagically see it, you have to explicitly go to bios | 04:21 |
| Ivanrad | gnea but it had an ssd b4? | 04:22 |
| Ivanrad | why wouldnt it recognize this ssd | 04:22 |
| Gnea | Ivanrad: doesn't matter, I have a netbook | 04:22 |
| Malvoro | hi everybody someone of El Salvador | 04:22 |
| Gnea | Ivanrad: it uses a SATA connection, so it will think SCSI | 04:22 |
| Blue1 | well this is how I put a bootable working ubuntu (not a livecd install) onto a flash drive -- YMMV http://pkill-9.com/wordpress/?p=51 | 04:22 |
| julian- | Ivanrad: You want to replace Windows on your netbook with Ubuntu, but lack an optical/USB drive to run the installer? | 04:22 |
| tensorpudding | Malvoro: there's a spanish-language channel if that is what you want | 04:22 |
| elijah | It says parted is installed and I did a search that suggests using kparted or qtparted, but parted isn't a GUI. | 04:23 |
| tensorpudding | !es | Malvoro | 04:23 |
| ubottu | Malvoro: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés. Si busca ayuda en español o charlar entra en el canal #ubuntu-es. Escribe "/join #ubuntu-es" (sin comillas) y dale a enter. | 04:23 |
| davefromcamp | mmm I don't know how to do that | 04:23 |
| davefromcamp | tensorpudding | 04:23 |
| elijah | kparted and qtparted don't come up in package search either | 04:23 |
| Ivanrad | pl | 04:24 |
| Ivanrad | im in the bios | 04:24 |
| Blue1 | julian-: i think he's saying his netbook has no usb, and no nard drive - just ssd - and that would get him there. | 04:24 |
| hanasaki | is there a way to send network traffic through a user program? daemon? basically want to do iptables.. but not via iptables.. all traffic goes through my program to determine what happens to it | 04:24 |
| julian- | BlueEagle: Yeah, that was what I was thinking. | 04:24 |
| julian- | blue1* | 04:24 |
| kneaux | okay why is it after purging wine, i reinstall it and my program information is still there | 04:24 |
| Blue1 | hanasaki: webmin? | 04:24 |
| Ivanrad | does anyone here have a phone | 04:25 |
| julian- | Ivanrad: Would you mind restating your issue? | 04:25 |
| Ivanrad | plz | 04:25 |
| hanasaki | Blue that's login right? this I snetowrk layer | 04:25 |
| elijah | nv, I will just get Gparted, was trying to stay withink the KDE realm but I don't think that is going to happen :D | 04:25 |
| Ivanrad | can i plz call someone i can explain it perfectly | 04:25 |
| Blue1 | kneaux: did you delete the .wine directory? | 04:25 |
| Ivanrad | or u can call me on a blocked number | 04:25 |
| Ivanrad | i dont care | 04:25 |
| kneaux | blue1: yeah | 04:25 |
| Ivanrad | i just need to explain to someone | 04:25 |
| julian- | Ivanrad: Was I wrong? | 04:25 |
| Gnea | Ivanrad: you'll have to be patient and we can work it | 04:25 |
| renedox | Ivanrad: call about what? | 04:25 |
| Ivanrad | i have to describe the problem | 04:25 |
| Ivanrad | ok one more time | 04:26 |
| Gnea | Ivanrad: go to your boot devices and select the usb drive | 04:26 |
| ems | well this sucks. | 04:26 |
| ems | i might have to go back to windows :( | 04:26 |
| Blue1 | hanasaki: http://www.webmin.com/ | 04:26 |
| Oli```` | I want to quickly benchmark my servers (at different companies) is there one app that will do a quick CPU, RAM and Disk benchmark and give me a metric I can compare with results obtained on another server? | 04:26 |
| Blue1 | Oli````: boinc? | 04:26 |
| Ivanrad | 1: I have a netbook with a shitty SSD .. so i threw it out.. 2nd i just got a runcore ssd... im hooked up to the SSD thru a usb adapter onto my windows which im talking on now... i want to install netbook remix onto the SSD that is connected to my comp now | 04:26 |
| Gnea | julian-: he's got a usb drive, but he's on a netbook, which requires that, in order to boot a usb drive, you have to enter the bios and specifically select the device for the boot to work | 04:26 |
| yeastwars | ems: welcome to linux, the land of unpolished suckiness | 04:27 |
| Ivanrad | keep in mind the SSD has no data on it | 04:27 |
| Gnea | julian-: I stand corrected. | 04:27 |
| Oli```` | Blue1: seems a little over the top... surely the has to be something smaller that can do a measurable workload | 04:27 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: i just don't think you can do that from windows -- | 04:27 |
| elijah | I installed Gparted, it wants a password, I entered the right one 3 times, does Gparted require some other password I do not know about? | 04:27 |
| Ivanrad | why not | 04:27 |
| Ivanrad | its not that hard | 04:28 |
| kneaux | wth | 04:28 |
| yeastwars | I just plugged in a new monitor which has a different native resolution than my laptop's (1600x900 vs 1440x900). These are set properly in the monitor settings, yet it doesn't seem like the resolution is 1600x900 at all. It looks like a badly scaled 1280x720. Is there a way to check what the resolution really is? | 04:28 |
| Gnea | Ivanrad: does your windows machine allow booting from usb? doesn't matter if it's ssd or not. | 04:28 |
| Blue1 | elijah: how are you running gparted? | 04:28 |
| kneaux | okay now i'm searching my entire partition for anything called wine | 04:28 |
| Ivanrad | im on the windows machine | 04:28 |
| hanasaki | Blue thanks.. not quite what I wanted.. :( I have looked at it before. | 04:28 |
| kneaux | thanks, apt | 04:28 |
| elijah | Blue1: GUI | 04:28 |
| Ivanrad | could i boot the netbook remix and install it onto the SSD | 04:28 |
| elijah | Blue1: On Kubuntu | 04:28 |
| Blue1 | kneaux: the directory is usually ~/.wine | 04:28 |
| === SpockVulcan is now known as AndrewMC | ||
| Gnea | Ivanrad: you could, yes | 04:28 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: yes | 04:28 |
| Ivanrad | ok | 04:28 |
| renedox | Ivanrad: yes | 04:29 |
| julian- | Ivanrad: Can you burn a disc on the Windows machine and boot from that on it? | 04:29 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: and I have given you directions on how to put it on a flash drive. use ssd instead and gtg | 04:29 |
| Ivanrad | ya | 04:29 |
| julian- | Blue1: I thought he said he lacked a flashdrive. | 04:29 |
| Ivanrad | i did blue | 04:29 |
| elijah | Blue1: And, no, caps lock is not on :) | 04:29 |
| Ivanrad | it says no bootable media | 04:29 |
| kneaux | blue1: i know, that's the directory i deleted. | 04:29 |
| Ivanrad | the flash drive thing didnt install a bootloader | 04:29 |
| ZekeS | Blue1: the thing is he wants to stick the SSD in the netbook and run it as the netbook's main drive | 04:29 |
| kneaux | obviously the configuration information is...somewhere goddamn else | 04:29 |
| Blue1 | julian-: he does, but you can still put ubuntu onto an ssd | 04:29 |
| ZekeS | Not an extension | 04:29 |
| ZekeS | err | 04:29 |
| === cece is now known as semo | ||
| ZekeS | Not as an external drive | 04:30 |
| julian- | Ivanrad: Am I missing something, or couldn't you just burn a CD/DVD, start up from it with the Windows machine, select Install, then when Ubuntu asks where to go, point it to the USB-connected SSD? | 04:30 |
| Blue1 | ZekeS: http://pkill-9.com/wordpress/?p=51 | 04:30 |
| Ivanrad | yes | 04:30 |
| Ivanrad | julian exactly | 04:30 |
| julian- | (being ludicrously careful to ensure it doesn't decide it'd be really fun to nuke your own system) | 04:30 |
| Ivanrad | julians got it | 04:30 |
| julian- | Ivanrad: Actually, just boot from the SSD in the Windows machine | 04:30 |
| julian- | SATA will be much quicker without USB in the middle | 04:30 |
| Ivanrad | its not sata | 04:30 |
| Ivanrad | its ZIF | 04:30 |
| julian- | Oh lordy | 04:30 |
| Ivanrad | tiny ribbon cable | 04:31 |
| renedox | lol | 04:31 |
| renedox | either option will do | 04:31 |
| Ivanrad | but its connectr thru USB | 04:31 |
| Ivanrad | kk | 04:31 |
| renedox | just during the install | 04:31 |
| renedox | choose the right device | 04:31 |
| Ivanrad | so im going to boot into remix now | 04:31 |
| ems | yeastwars; land of oppertunity my a%% :) | 04:31 |
| Ivanrad | if anyone is willing to call me or help me i would paypal u money | 04:31 |
| julian- | Ivanrad: Considering my history with trying to install Linux on external drives, I'd probably yank my internal ;) | 04:31 |
| Ivanrad | what do u mean | 04:31 |
| Ivanrad | it wont install to the SSD | 04:31 |
| mobasher | Ivanrad:=] lol paypal | 04:31 |

| mardok | Does anyone know why iwconfig can pick up wireless fields, but dhcp doesn't work? | 04:32 |
| julian- | Ivanrad: Nah, I just mean I had the installer randomly decide in the past that it'd go ahead and install on my internal drive even after I'd said to install on an external. | 04:32 |
| Blue1 | julian btdt | 04:33 |
| julian- | I'm still not entirely sure if I just missed something in the partitioner, though it just makes me paranoid enough to do a full backup before I install a new OS, even to an external ;) | 04:33 |
| Ivanrad | it wont install to the SSD | 04:33 |
| Ivanrad | kk one moire time.. the windows machine im on now im going to boot up netbook remix.. then point installation to my SSD which is connected thru the USB | 04:33 |
| Ivanrad | ignore the it wont install | 04:33 |
| julian- | heh | 04:34 |
| Blue1 | k | 04:34 |
| Ivanrad | it should work right? | 04:34 |
| renedox | yes | 04:34 |
| Ivanrad | k | 04:34 |
| julian- | Ivanrad: It isn't Windows, so it should be fine with an external drive for install ;) | 04:34 |
| Ivanrad | then im going to install the SSD into my netbook and it should boot up fine | 04:34 |
| julian- | That's the plan. | 04:34 |
| Ivanrad | kk | 04:35 |
| Ivanrad | i hope this works guys | 04:35 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: should work, follow the recipe | 04:35 |
| elijah | Does Gparted have a magic, default password? | 04:35 |
| yeastwars | any idea why my new monitor, which is set to 1600x900, is actually displaying stuff in 1400x900? My other screen (laptop) happens to be 1400x900 so I guess this might have something to do with it? | 04:35 |
| Ivanrad | is it easy to point to the external drive | 04:35 |
| Ivanrad | like no sudo shit... | 04:35 |
| julian- | yeastlord3: Is it displaying everything? | 04:35 |
| Ivanrad | btw should i format the SSD or will remix do that | 04:35 |
| mobasher | if it works don't forget to paypal please ;) | 04:35 |
| Ivanrad | k | 04:35 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: I'd use ext2 with ssd, not ext4 | 04:36 |
| Ivanrad | k | 04:36 |
| tensorpudding | eh? | 04:36 |
| tensorpudding | ext2? | 04:36 |
| yeastwars | julian-: yes, assuming you meant yeastwars | 04:36 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: ext2 is NON-jounaled and ssd isn't all that fast. | 04:36 |
| Ivanrad | SSD? isnt fast.. its 97 mb/s | 04:36 |
| yeastwars | julian-: it just looks like the wrong resolution | 04:37 |
| julian- | Ivanrad: Sudo would mean a system would need to be installed already, as sudo basically says "I am the master user, don't even think about pulling that permissions crap with me", and seeing as you haven't got anything for it to be bothered about permissions about yet since the disk is blank, it should be fine. | 04:37 |
| elijah | Ivanrad: you mean MB/s | 04:37 |
| Ivanrad | ya | 04:37 |
| julian- | yeastwars: Sorry, I meant is it mirroring? | 04:37 |
| elijah | mb/s would be anciently slow | 04:37 |
| yeastwars | julian-: I'm pretty sure the configuration gui is lying to me | 04:37 |
| yeastwars | julian-: what do you mean mirroring? | 04:37 |
| Blue1 | Ivanrad: my bad. I only have experience with usb and it's NOT that fast trust me | 04:37 |
| Ivanrad | k | 04:37 |
| julian- | yeastwars: Is one display showing the same stuff as the other. | 04:37 |
| yeastwars | julian-: no, they're independent | 04:37 |
| Ivanrad | i love ubuntu netbook remix | 04:37 |
| elijah | Blue1: Intel and Corsair SSD are Uberfast | 04:37 |
| julian- | Blue1: USB is far, far slower, and SSDs use much better NAND than most flash drives. | 04:37 |
| Ivanrad | ya | 04:37 |

| julian- | Ivanrad: Good luck, ensure you read the instructions carefully. | 04:39 |
| Ivanrad | instructions? | 04:39 |
| julian- | In the installer | 04:39 |
| Ivanrad | kk | 04:39 |
| elijah | Well, Gparted just doesn't work on Kubuntu, or at least this version has a bug. Will not accept my password no matter what. Tried at least 10 times. | 04:39 |
| tensorpudding | Using ext2 might save you on writes, but not having a journal means that you're at risk if your machine crashes | 04:39 |
| chaz | I'm installing 10.04 from the alternate cd. It boots on the cd fine but after I select my language and keyboard it says it cannot find a common cd-rom drive. I have a sata connected hard drive and dvd-rom drive how do I get the installer to work correctly? It should detect it if it could boot off it? | 04:39 |
| julian- | Ivanrad: If you just want Linux on it, just tell it to use the whole disk and let it sort it out. | 04:39 |
| Ivanrad | kk | 04:39 |
| elijah | I can launch Gparted using sudo gparted via cli with the same password. | 04:40 |
| elijah | very odd | 04:40 |
| Blue1 | elijah: what do you want to do? | 04:40 |
| yeastwars | julian-: and for some reason, mplayer/totem aren't displaying anything (black) | 04:40 |
| elijah | Blue1: I was trying to launch the Gparted GUI via Krunner (like Gnome Do), a password prompt came up and ignores the correct password everytime. | 04:41 |
| Blue1 | elijah: normally run gparted off the livecd | 04:41 |
| * julian- remembers he actually came in here for help | 04:41 | |
| elijah | Blue1: Why? | 04:41 |
| rhett | hiya | 04:42 |
| Blue1 | elijah: gparted requires the disc to be unmounted | 04:42 |
| rhett | I'm running 10.04. I have wireless internet on 192.168.55.1 as the gateway, but I also want to connect to an internal wired network over ethernet on 192.168.0.1 | 04:42 |
| julian- | yeastwars: Yeah, I'm sorry but I have no idea, though considering my epic n00bness.. | 04:43 |
| rhett | so, I can do that, but when I do, I see both connections on ifconfig, but my web surfing no longer works | 04:43 |
| elijah | Blue1: That is assuming you are working on only the OS partition. I have multiple partitions, definitely not interested in running off a love cd | 04:43 |
| elijah | *live | 04:43 |
| rhett | I want the browser to use the connection on wlan0 instead of eth0 | 04:43 |
| elijah | Blue1: Gparted let me unmount the partition I wanted to resize. | 04:43 |
| Blue1 | rhett: dumb question - you did pull the ethernet cable, yes? | 04:43 |
| elijah | I just wish I could launch it via Krunner and not CLI. | 04:44 |
| Blue1 | elijah: okay YMMV | 04:44 |
| rhett | Blue1, when i pull out the ethernet cable, web surfing and irc works fine | 04:44 |
| rhett | I want to stay connected to both networks though | 04:44 |
| Blue1 | rhett: I can't confirm this but my experience is, (at least with my netbook) it seems to prefer hardwire over wireless | 04:45 |
| chaz | I'm installing 10.04 from the alternate cd. It boots on the cd fine but after I select my language and keyboard it says it cannot find a common cd-rom drive. I have a sata connected hard drive and dvd-rom drive how do I get the installer to work correctly? It should detect it if it could boot off it? | 04:45 |
| julian- | So, now that Ivanrad is off, I've only got a Bluetooth keyboard, any ideas as to how I can install Ubuntu and actually be able to switch between it and Windows? | 04:45 |
| Blue1 | chaz: let's backup did the download md5sum correctly? | 04:45 |
| rhett | that's what's happening to be, Blue1. Is there a way to change it? | 04:45 |
| Blue1 | rhett: there might be, but I never got any further investigating it. | 04:46 |
| chaz | Blue1: yes the dvd is working i've used it on another system | 04:46 |
| Blue1 | chaz: no not what I asked, is the md5sum on the download correct? | 04:46 |
| Blue1 | !md5sum | chaz | 04:46 |
| ubottu | chaz: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 04:46 |
| chaz | Blue1: just checked it, and it matches the one I just downloaded for it | 04:47 |
| Blue1 | chaz: kewl at least we know you got a good download - always first place to start. so you've booted the alt. install cd, and it comes to the point where it can't find the cd or dvd? one quick question. did you burn the iso onto a cd or dvd? | 04:48 |
| chaz | Blue1: onto a dvd, it seems the bios recognizes the drive and understans how to mount and read it to load the ramfs into memory, but ubuntu does not contain a driver in the ramfs for the sata dvd drive.. so I'm thinking I need to modprobe a driver | 04:49 |

| actionParsnip | bonez2046: amsn can do cam over msn | 04:58 |
| kronosphere | is there a malware type of app to clean malware from our ubuntu ? | 04:58 |
| bonez2046 | thanks.. | 05:00 |
| wevl | I have a ubuntu 10.04 question. Am I in the right place? | 05:01 |
| tensorpudding | wevl: yes | 05:01 |
| tensorpudding | kronosphere: you have malware? | 05:02 |
| gstarx90 | kronosphere, avast | 05:02 |
| wevl | After not using my machine for while, when I return, I have to log in again. Is there a way to turn this automatic log out off? | 05:02 |
| kronosphere | i think, a little globe was at the top of my panel, and it was some img.myfreecams.com (sounds like a sex site) | 05:03 |
| kronosphere | ty gstarx90 | 05:03 |
| kronosphere | tensorpudding: does that sound like malware? | 05:04 |
| tensorpudding | kronosphere: on your ubuntu panel? | 05:05 |
| harovali | I have a 9.10 machine booted in recovery mode, since some critical libraries got misteriously broken (which make the normal system functioning impossible). Now, I'd like to run some sort of package recovering routine, which the recovery menu does offer as an option. But since I only could awaken the ethernet interface from the netroot option, and these settings seem to be lost if I ctrl-d , I'd like to run some apt command t | 05:06 |
| kronosphere | tensorpudding: yes | 05:06 |
| kronosphere | tensorpudding: rigth next to the battery symbol | 05:06 |
| kronosphere | *right | 05:06 |
| tensorpudding | kronosphere: huh | 05:06 |
| kronosphere | tensorpudding: next to the battery power indicator, the volume indicator, at the top of the ubunt panel | 05:07 |
| Blue1 | harovali: have you tried sudo apt-get -f install | 05:08 |
| kronosphere | anyway, i clicked remove from panel, and it removed | 05:08 |
| julian- | Hmm, is there a way to get my BT keyboard recognised during install? | 05:08 |
| thune3 | harovali: debsums is a program that compares installed files against their md5sums at the time of install. It might be able to show you libs that are broken. (i'm not clear on your issue exactly though) | 05:09 |
| neil_d | I found out how to make network-manager start a wi-fi connection at bootup... but this didn't affect my problem.. at shutdown the system still seems to disconnect the wi-fi before unmounting the samba shares... then taking forever (sometime hours) to shutdown... any ideas on fixing this? | 05:11 |
| PreZ | ugh. I downloaded Ubuntu 10.10 (beta) CD ... trying to launch Ubiquity gives a bus error :( | 05:12 |
| neil_d | PreZ: try the ubuntu+1 channel. | 05:12 |
| actionParsnip | neil_d: you may have to add the unmounts to your session logout so they unmount before the wifi dies | 05:14 |
| Galaxor | I'm trying to start tftpd-hpa. in.tftpd -L -s -v. It crashes immediately, printing nothing on the screen, leaving nothing in /var/log/messages, and returning error code 64. Is there some other log file I should look at? | 05:14 |
| neil_d | actionParsnip: I suppose that would work as a patch... but I would need to add them for every user. | 05:15 |
| kronosphere | gstarx90: is it necessary to run an antivirus protection app on linux? | 05:15 |
| gstarx90 | kronosphere, no unless you do stupid stuff as root | 05:15 |
| Galaxor | answer: /var/log/daemon.log | 05:15 |
| actionParsnip | neil_d: true, i get the same but i just shutdown and leave the device on the side to die :) | 05:16 |
| PreZ | I only use av to virus scan emails on servers I have a mail server on | 05:16 |
| kronosphere | well, im on my 4th day on ubuntu, not sure what would be stupid yet! :) | 05:16 |
| actionParsnip | kronosphere: it is if you use samba and windows clients to protect them from each other | 05:16 |
| neil_d | actionParsnip: I used to... but one time it was still trying to shutdown 2 hours latter (on battery power). | 05:17 |
| actionParsnip | neil_d: log a bug is all I can suggest | 05:17 |
| kronosphere | what is samba? Am i automatically using samba if i am dual booted winxp and ubuntu? | 05:17 |
| Blue1 | kronosphere: samba allows linux to read/write to a windows file system | 05:18 |
| kronosphere | i see. so there is a chance i might need samba sometimes if i am dual booted, right? | 05:18 |
| neil_d | Blue1: that is a windows share... generally from a different computer.. | 05:19 |
| thune3 | neil_d: the way you have it setup, does network manager close when the session closes or later on? | 05:19 |
| Blue1 | kronosphere: neil_d is correct my bad | 05:19 |
| neil_d | thune3: don't know... the interface stays up now after I log out of gnome. | 05:20 |
| Blue1 | kronosphere: you can generally mount the windows partition in fstab | 05:20 |
| Blue1 | kronosphere: if it's a local device that is. | 05:20 |

| kronosphere | nice help article actionParsnip thankyou | 05:22 |
| EMPulse | hey guys, does anyone know how to enable Firestarter on startup on Ubuntu netbook edition? I used the start-up program and added "Sudo firestarter", but it never works. Thanks. | 05:22 |
| Blue1 | EMPulse: sudo rcconf iirc | 05:23 |
| EMPulse | ? | 05:23 |
| EMPulse | Blue1, what does that do? | 05:23 |
| bobboau | I have a mythbunu virgin install, I have two hvr1600s in it, when I have just one card (tried both of them) it works fine, but when both are in it I get a panic. can someone tell me how to fix this please | 05:23 |
| Blue1 | EMPulse: that allows you to control which programmes run at startup time... | 05:23 |
| kronosphere | Blue1 thank you | 05:24 |
| === xuekan is now known as rabbit_kan | ||
| EMPulse | Blue1, thanks. | 05:24 |
| Blue1 | EMPulse: you are welcome | 05:24 |
| thune3 | neil_d: either do shares mounting through gnome (instead of fstab), or maybe add a pre-stop script section to /etc/init/network-manager.conf that unmounts your samba. | 05:25 |
| kronosphere | but does that answer my question about needing to run anti-vifus and anti malware apps? Do I need those? | 05:25 |
| madfox | no | 05:25 |
| thune3 | no? | 05:25 |
| Blue1 | i have never run a/v software in linux. ever. | 05:26 |
| Blue1 | well, except with windows in a virtual box, but that's all | 05:26 |
| blag | does the ubuntu one client run on windows? | 05:26 |
| madfox | kronosphere thune3 ya dont need a/v for linux unless you are receiving a file and plan to pass it on to a windows comp | 05:26 |
| thune3 | linux *can* get malware, just not "viruses" so to speak | 05:26 |
| Blue1 | true | 05:26 |
| kronosphere | ok, thats a relief, i don't want to have to start bogging down linux with that stuff | 05:26 |
| roved2101 | what's a virus kronosphere?? | 05:27 |
| bobboau | I have been told that my problem looks like a resource conflict, but I have no idea how to resolve this | 05:27 |
| Blue1 | bobboau: maybe you could describe the problem? | 05:27 |
| BlkMonkey | <blag> that is a good question, I don't think it does. | 05:27 |
| bobboau | I just reinstalled mythbuntu 10.04, I didn't have any cards in the system when I did the install, it boots up fine when I have either of the two hvr-1600s in it, but if I have both it dies with a bunch or errors | 05:28 |
| bobboau | Kernel panic - not syncing: fatal machine check | 05:28 |
| bobboau | Pid: 0, comm:swapper Tainted G M 2.6.32-24-generic #42-Ubuntu | 05:28 |
| bobboau | [drm:drm_fb_helper_panic] *ERROR* panic occurred, switching back to text console | 05:28 |
| kronosphere | i installed ubuntu the easy way, using the wubi installer. is it true that the performance is going to deteriorate because of the type of install? | 05:28 |
| thune3 | bobboau: if the driver for your hardware doesn't support multiple cards, then you will not be able to use multiple cards | 05:29 |
| bobboau | are some of the messages that stand out to me | 05:29 |
| Blue1 | bobboau: you'd need someone with more experience the I, I have no clue what an hvr is. | 05:29 |
| bobboau | it is a tuner card | 05:29 |
| neil_d | thune3: there doesn't seem to be anything (of relevance) in /etc/init/network-manager.conf .... can I setup gnome to mount samba shares upon startup? | 05:29 |
| bobboau | it is a tuner card | 05:29 |
| bobboau | I was just in the mythtv chanel they told me to ask here | 05:29 |
| buzzard32 | neil yes | 05:30 |
| thune3 | neil_d: doing it though gnome would be mounted during the session only. And for network-manager.conf, you could *add* a pre-stop script section that does samba unmounting. | 05:30 |
| Blue1 | bobboau: pardon my stupidity - is that like a tv tuner card? | 05:30 |
| bobboau | I see no mention of multiple cards not being supported | 05:30 |
| bobboau | yes | 05:30 |
| Blue1 | bobboau: ahh never played with those - I got tivo | 05:30 |
| thune3 | bobboau: multiple cards in linux would seem to work in the other direction by default, if multiple identical cards are supported then THAT would be mentioned | 05:31 |
| BiggFREE | bobboau: ... Is it like WIN TV ? | 05:31 |
| strAlan | lshw is showing two *-network outputs for 1 wireless card. Why is this? | 05:32 |
| bobboau | well, the guys on the mythtv channel suggested that I manualy load the modules, and assignt different resources to them, I asked them how to do that and they told me to ask here | 05:33 |
| Oli```` | htop | 05:35 |
| bobboau | then they started talking about wressling on the scifi channel... | 05:35 |
| Blue1 | eesh | 05:36 |
| actionParsnip | strAlan: some do that, one will be the actual card. You may need wicd | 05:37 |
| strAlan | actionParsnip: I'm helping a user on UF in the Net&Wless forum | 05:37 |
| strAlan | actionParsnip: and he's getting that output | 05:37 |
| strAlan | for a BCM4306 | 05:37 |
| actionParsnip | strAlan: try one, if its bad, use the other | 05:38 |
| bobstro | when i shut down or log out, i get an annoying "a program is still running" dialog box, and the list shows "unknown". this happened after enabling, then disabling auto-login. i've read of others with the same issue, but have found no fix. it happens even if i log in, then immediately reboot or logout. i've gone through ps and seen nothing unusual. | 05:38 |
| zeknox | when you add a route to an ubuntu server with the route add command, does it stay in place even after a reboot? | 05:38 |
| bobstro | this also happens with other user accounts on this computer. | 05:38 |
| strAlan | actionParsnip: yeah I'm just going to move on and assume that output won't be a problem | 05:38 |
| thedanny09 | ls | 05:38 |
| actionParsnip | zeknox: no, add it in /etc/rc.local | 05:38 |
| thedanny09 | ping | 05:38 |
| actionParsnip | !ping | thedanny09 | 05:39 |
| * ede_ Ping | Could not be resolved to an IP address | 05:39 | |
| ubottu | thedanny09: pong | 05:39 |
| ChogyDan | bobstro: try wiping the the autostart folder, something like .config/gnome-session | 05:39 |
| thune3 | neil_d: i guess another approach might be to have interface managed by networking instead of network-manager, but i'm not sure how to do that. | 05:39 |
| zeknox | actionParsnip: just add the entire route command like I was typing it in cli | 05:39 |
| bobstro | ChogyDan: ok, thanks | 05:39 |
| thedanny09 | everyone in this room, go to wendys, and order a baconator | 05:39 |
| actionParsnip | zeknox: absolutely, without the sudo bit, and above the exit 0 line | 05:40 |
| ChogyDan | bobstro: then the saved-session folder | 05:40 |
| actionParsnip | !ot | thedanny09 | 05:40 |
| ubottu | thedanny09: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 05:40 |
| bobstro | ChogyDan: ok, let me try logging out and back in | 05:41 |
| PreZ | Why does the 64-bit version say 'not recommended for daily desktop usage' on the Ubuntu download page? | 05:41 |
| zeknox | actionParsnip: thanks man! can you put any command in there that you want to boot on startup? | 05:42 |
| ChogyDan | PreZ: prolly cause some stuff doesn't work with it | 05:42 |
| Blue1 | PreZ: don't know I use it everyday for a desktop and it seems to work fine | 05:42 |
| thune3 | PreZ: because of small problems and incompatibilities with 3rd party software that you might encounter. Anyone with apt/command line proficiency could handle 64-bit. | 05:43 |
| actionParsnip | zeknox: thats exactly what it's for. It will be ran just before the login prompt appears, graphical or cli. If the command is a persistant service then end the command with an ampersand or the system will never boot | 05:43 |
| actionParsnip | PreZ: companys like brother only make 32bit drivers for example. | 05:44 |
| PreZ | I'm tossing up whether to install ubuntu or gentoo on my re-built desktop | 05:45 |
| bobstro | ChogyDan: no such luck. i'll keep trying session-related things. | 05:45 |
| harovali | Blue1: thune3: thanks | 05:45 |
| ChogyDan | bobstro: you wiped the saved-session folder? | 05:45 |
| ChogyDan | bobstro: nvm,nvm | 05:46 |
| harovali | How do I tell which package does /lib/libpam.so.0 belong to ? | 05:46 |
| actionParsnip | harovali: dpkg -S libpam.so.0 | 05:46 |
| harovali | actionParsnip: thank you | 05:46 |
| bobstro | ChogyDan: yes, i tried that an rebooted. same issue. | 05:46 |
| bobstro | ChogyDan: i'm disabling startup applications as well now. | 05:47 |
| Blue1 | sorry linux does no magic. if you want the ip address of your other computer, only way I know of is to do an ifconfig on that computer, and then you can put the info in /etc/hosts | 05:47 |
| Blue1 | oops wrong guy. | 05:47 |
| Crankygeek01 | If I want something to start during boot what would I do? | 05:48 |
| actionParsnip | Blue1: could use dig, it will use dns magic ;) | 05:48 |
| Blue1 | actionParsnip: never heard of it, I will have to try it. | 05:49 |
| Doyle | Blue1: depending on how many computers are on the network a simple device discovery tool may be enough... | 05:49 |
| actionParsnip | Crankygeek01: add the command in /etc/rc.local add an ampersand on the end and don't use sudo. Also add it above exit 0. It will then run as root also | 05:49 |
| thune3 | Crankygeek01: you hit it in the mouth, in the morning. Then you put it in /etc/rc.local | 05:49 |
| actionParsnip | Blue1: ;) | 05:49 |
| Crankygeek01 | Thank you! | 05:50 |
| luw | hi in my irc client, how can i automaticly join channels that i have on my list? | 05:53 |
| luw | client is default one that comes with ubuntu | 05:53 |
| Doyle | luw: waht client? | 05:53 |
| Fudge | hi can anyone tell me how to configure the xorg dummy dirver? | 05:53 |
| luw | sorry, xchat-gnome 0.26.1 | 05:53 |
| EMPulse | hey guys | 05:54 |
| EMPulse | Is it true that firestarter isn't that well supported anymore? | 05:54 |
| luw | Doyle: i thought i configured it, but i only join the servers i selected, not the channels | 05:54 |
| Doyle | luw: here's a good reference http://wiki.foresightlinux.org/display/docs/Xchat-GNOME | 05:54 |
| Doyle | luw: have a look, let me know how it works | 05:54 |
| Crankygeek01 | Has anyone else had problems with Team viewer on ubuntu 10.10? | 05:55 |
| TheVince | hello all | 05:55 |
| Doyle | Crankygeek01: what kind of problems? | 05:56 |
| Crankygeek01 | I can't get it to install | 05:56 |
| Doyle | Crankygeek01: download from website? | 05:57 |
| fluvvell | does anyone know exactly what the ipod initialise function does in Lucid and how to undo it? Its broken my wifes new ipod | 05:57 |
| Doyle | Crankygeek01: teamviewer_linux.deb what what I used | 05:58 |
| Crankygeek01 | Yes, from the site...giving a validation error | 05:58 |
| Doyle | Crankygeek01: more specifics on the error please, when durring the install does it occure, what is the exact text of the error? | 05:59 |
| Ivanrad | hey all | 05:59 |
| Ivanrad | finally found a usb stick | 05:59 |
| thune3 | Crankygeek01: my wild guess is an incomplete download | 06:00 |
| Crankygeek01 | It happens as soon as I start the install. I'll have to go try it again to get the exact error | 06:00 |
| Doyle | luw: wb | 06:00 |
| kevdog | 'sup | 06:01 |
| Doyle | Crankygeek01: ok, let me know what it is | 06:01 |
| Doyle | luw: did that work? | 06:01 |
| Crankygeek01 | I have tried downloading it for the last 3 days with no luck on install | 06:01 |
| luw | hi Doyle. thank you, it worked for the channels in my OFTC network, but not in my freenode network | 06:01 |
| Doyle | Crankygeek01: you don't have to download it again, just run the one you have | 06:02 |
| Doyle | Crankygeek01: it'll be in ~/Downloads by default | 06:02 |
| Crankygeek01 | Right...but I tried because I thought it was a faulty download | 06:02 |
| Doyle | luw: ah, freenode takes a while for my client to connect to, it may be running the join command too soon for the network to catch it | 06:03 |
| Doyle | luw: since it works on one network, it's not the client | 06:03 |
| Ivanrad | wow | 06:03 |
| Ivanrad | for some reason the zif connector doesnt work... | 06:03 |
| Doyle | luw: I remember back in the day there was a delay option on some clients, have a look around to see if you can delay the joins by a few seconds. I'm not too familiar with Xchat beyond the basics | 06:04 |
| Doyle | Ivanrad: they're delicate... | 06:05 |
| luw | Doyle: ok great. also before, i didnt have the # infront at first (guess i didnt need it). so should i wait for it to join those channels it didnt join? | 06:05 |
| luw | Doyle: again thank you for your help | 06:05 |
| Votan | someone tries to send me a file on empathy, .... where the heck can I accept it ? I do not get a dialog like in Windows Live Messenger under windows ? | 06:05 |
| luw | (guess i didnt need it i meant "guess I THOUGHT i didnt need it" | 06:06 |
| Doyle | luw: typically # is necessary, but people are lazy and a lot of programmers setup the program to enter it automatically if the user doesn't. Try putting # in front. Can't hurt. | 06:06 |
| Ivanrad | so | 06:07 |
| Ivanrad | i dont get this | 06:07 |
| luw | Doyle: sorry for the confusion. at first i didnt have that # (why it didnt work for OFTC channels). then i read your tutorial and i added the #. now it does (for OFTC). | 06:07 |
| Ivanrad | r there different zif connectors | 06:07 |
| Doyle | Votan: look around in preferences, it may be set to ignore all files... typically you want web apps setup to prompt user for all sends. You can also specify the download directory. | 06:07 |
| Ivanrad | cause my runcore sent me a zif ribbon | 06:07 |
| Ivanrad | and now my os wont detect it | 06:08 |
| Doyle | Ivanrad: zif connector just specifies the type of mechanism, ti can be made in many sizes. | 06:08 |
| Ivanrad | well | 06:09 |
| Ivanrad | that explains it | 06:09 |
| Ivanrad | so my hp minis zif connector wont work with my runcore zif connector | 06:09 |
| Doyle | Ivanrad: if you do a google images search for zif connector you'll see a few dozen different types I'm sure | 06:09 |
| Doyle | Ivanrad: if it looks like it'll fit, count the connectors on the ribbon and receiver, if they match up - cool. | 06:10 |
| Ivanrad | they do | 06:10 |
| Ivanrad | i dont get why it doesnt match up | 06:10 |
| Votan | Doyle I agree, but the preferences Menu in empathy seems to be quite limited, there isnt even the possibility to configure anything related to filetransfers... or is there some kind of advanced Menu in empathy which I haven'T found yet ? | 06:10 |
| Doyle | Ivanrad: products from different manufacturers can be annoying | 06:10 |
| Ivanrad | but they look exactly the same | 06:10 |
| luw | Ivanrad: what are you tring to connect to with a ZIF? | 06:10 |
| Jonathan | Hello | 06:11 |
| Ivanrad | ok | 06:11 |
| Doyle | ssd? | 06:11 |
| Ivanrad | i swapped my 1116nr ssd | 06:11 |
| Ivanrad | with a run core | 06:11 |
| Ivanrad | the ribbon that is stock doesnt fit | 06:11 |
| Ivanrad | so they gave me two more ribbons | 06:11 |
| luw | so im guessing it isnt just sata or something standard? | 06:13 |
| Doyle | Votan: it may be an old version of empathy, until this year empathy didn't support file receiving | 06:13 |
| Votan | Doyle i am actually on maverick and got the telepathy-team ppa added to my repos so my version should be pretty bleeding edge, but i think the empathy options menu is stripped down in ubuntu and i haven#t figured out how to get the full one yet | 06:14 |
| Doyle | Ivanrad: that's really weird, should work perfectly | 06:15 |
| Doyle | Ivanrad: what happens exactly, drive isn't detected at all, even at BIOS level? | 06:15 |
| Ivanrad | ya | 06:15 |
| Ivanrad | exactly | 06:15 |
| Doyle | Ivanrad: There shouldn't be any incongruencies between drive manufacturers as to the specifications of the products they manufacturer | 06:16 |
| Doyle | Ivanrad: it happens though... just get them to replace it. | 06:16 |
| Doyle | Ivanrad: maybe it was exposed to some kind of radiation durring shipping that fried the control board | 06:17 |
| Doyle | Cmon! Someone with a hard question! | 06:25 |
| SoulShadow | where do babies come from? | 06:25 |
| frobisher | !ot | 06:26 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks! | 06:26 |
| SoulShadow | well hey he said hard question | 06:26 |
| Doyle | SoulShadow: first a man and women fall in love, then they ebay "baby" | 06:26 |
| SoulShadow | lmao | 06:27 |
| SoulShadow | +1 internets to you | 06:27 |
| frobisher | lol | 06:27 |
| Doyle | lol | 06:27 |
| Doyle | If no one's going to challenge me tonight I might just play some Battle for Wesnoth | 06:28 |
| Doyle | gnight all | 06:28 |
| frobisher | Which is better Gnome or KDE? | 06:28 |
| actionParsnip | SoulShadow: well mummy and daddy love each other very much and daddy gives mummy a special hug ;) | 06:28 |
| actionParsnip | frobisher: neither is better, both have advantages and weaknesses | 06:29 |
| SoulShadow | well | 06:29 |
| SoulShadow | a pro of Gnome is it doesn't look designed by a 5 year old | 06:29 |
| frobisher | TY | 06:29 |
| actionParsnip | frobisher: try both, see which you like | 06:29 |
| SoulShadow | @ actionParsnip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOVeDwFLd1Q | 06:29 |
| actionParsnip | frobisher: there are more DEs than that too | 06:29 |
| SoulShadow | LXDE is nice and light, i'm kind of a fan of that | 06:29 |
| noisewaterphd | frobisher: they are both good. right now I'd say gnome is better, especially on Ubuntu, but KDE is showing promise of kicking some but again withing a few versions | 06:30 |
| actionParsnip | SoulShadow: +1 LXDE :) | 06:30 |
| SoulShadow | but lightweight doesn't really make ad ifference to me | 06:30 |
| SoulShadow | on my i7 | 06:30 |
| SoulShadow | lol | 06:30 |
| prince_jammys | try them and decide | 06:31 |
| actionParsnip | SoulShadow: its just leaves more ram and cpu for other apps, makes the cpu run using less power too as you arent stressing it so much | 06:31 |
| Name141 | is it possible to get notified when you need to restart the machine via ssh/terminal ? | 06:31 |
| Name141 | after updates | 06:31 |
| frobisher | I have found that different distributions do the desktop differently.And that that matters too. | 06:31 |
| SoulShadow | 6gb ram, i7-920 <333 | 06:31 |
| actionParsnip | frobisher: indeed, but underneath its all the same, linux | 06:32 |
| actionParsnip | SoulShadow: i work on servers which dwarf that signifiocantly | 06:32 |
| SoulShadow | desktop computer != server | 06:32 |
| SoulShadow | :D | 06:32 |
| actionParsnip | SoulShadow: it can be | 06:32 |
| SoulShadow | well yeah | 06:32 |
| SoulShadow | if i tossed an SSD in here it could double as a low end server | 06:33 |
| frobisher | actionParsnip:you are right. | 06:33 |
| actionParsnip | frobisher: just have a play, see what the OS can do. You'll break it a lot and reinstall etc but you'll learn a lot | 06:33 |
| frobisher | actionParsnip: Yea,but first I have to fix my computer so that I can dump wubi. | 06:35 |
| duckx0r | when doing a grub-install is the --root-directory where / is or where /boot/ is? | 06:36 |
| madjoe | How to let PHP to freely chmod folders on my Ubuntu? | 06:36 |
| actionParsnip | madjoe: sounds dangerous to me | 06:37 |
| madjoe | actionParsnip: well, I have to let it store user's data on my server - since there are so many of them, I should organize it in separate folders | 06:38 |
| noisewaterphd | SoulShadow: i just did a 240gig SSD for the system drive last month with 2 sets of mirrored 2.5tb drives for storage. Performance increase is substantial! | 06:39 |
| madjoe | actionParsnip: think of it as Facebook's user galleries | 06:39 |
| SoulShadow | noisewaterphd: i'm looking at a 300gb intel | 06:39 |
| SoulShadow | whenit comes out | 06:39 |
| actionParsnip | madjoe: then give each user ownership of their own folder (maybe) | 06:39 |
| Flannel | duckx0r: / | 06:40 |
| actionParsnip | noisewaterphd: its still a SATA interface so yo u are limited to 300Mb/s | 06:40 |
| noisewaterphd | SoulShadow: definitely worth it IMO | 06:40 |
| madjoe | actionParsnip: there will be 100 of thousands of users that will create 100's of folders... | 06:40 |
| SoulShadow | modern ssd's don't saturate the sata2 bus | 06:40 |
| noisewaterphd | actionParsnip: so | 06:40 |
| SoulShadow | one ssd can read higher than sata2 | 06:40 |
| madjoe | actionParsnip: each folder that is created now is a chown of www-data:www-data | 06:41 |
| actionParsnip | noisewaterphd: there is a PCI-express 16x SD card reader which (although not bootable) gives 2.5Gb/s | 06:42 |
| actionParsnip | noisewaterphd: as the data goes direct onto the PCI bus rather than through a slow SATA controller | 06:42 |
| SoulShadow | actionParsnip: doesn't matter if the ssd can't utilize it | 06:43 |
| actionParsnip | SoulShadow: why wouldnt it, SSD is a defacto standard | 06:43 |
| shai | Hi :) Do you know what the difference is between /usr/bin/sar and /usr/lib64/sa/sa1 and sa1 and sadc ? I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 if it makes any diff... | 06:44 |
| Zyklon | what's the cmd for closing firefox from cmd line? | 06:44 |
| SoulShadow | current SSD's cannot saturate the SATA bus | 06:45 |
| saik0 | Zyklon killall firefox, (or maybe firefox-bin) | 06:45 |
| SoulShadow | and besides | 06:45 |
| SoulShadow | we have SATA 3 | 06:45 |
| SoulShadow | anyway | 06:45 |
| actionParsnip | Zyklon: killall firefox | 06:45 |
| Zyklon | nope still getting that it's running | 06:45 |
| Zyklon | so can't open a new :/ | 06:45 |
| fratzbc | ps auxf | grep firefox | 06:46 |
| fratzbc | get the id and kill it | 06:46 |
| Zyklon | from ps -aux? | 06:46 |
| SoulShadow | http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148349&cm_re=crucial_c300-_-20-148-349-_-Product <-- only current SSD capable of above SATA 2 throughput | 06:46 |
| saik0 | Zyklon: If that does not work kill -9 <<process id>> | 06:46 |
| Zyklon | actionParsnip: any easy way to get the d? | 06:46 |
| Zyklon | id* | 06:46 |
| SoulShadow | and as you'll notice that's only in read | 06:46 |
| actionParsnip | Zyklon: you can use: kill `pidof firefox` if you want | 06:47 |
| Zyklon | kill `pidof firefox` | 06:47 |
| Zyklon | like that? | 06:47 |
| maco | Zyklon: why not "pkill firefox"? | 06:47 |
| actionParsnip | SoulShadow: magnetic ram will be sweet :). Keeps the data in the ram even after power off, RAM data rate is phenominal | 06:47 |
| Zyklon | returns didn't get killed or something | 06:48 |
| Zyklon | but when I try start it up I get in use or already running | 06:48 |
| SoulShadow | actionParsnip: think mainstream, not future tech :P | 06:48 |
| Zyklon | admin@ks33885:~$ sudo killall firefox | 06:48 |
| Zyklon | firefox: no process killed | 06:48 |
| Zyklon | I get in return | 06:48 |
| actionParsnip | Zyklon: if you run: ps -ef | grep -i fire the leftmost value is the PID (or program ID). You can kill that | 06:48 |
| tensorpudding | Zyklon: sounds like firefox has quit then | 06:48 |
| actionParsnip | SoulShadow: always look to the future ;) | 06:48 |
| Zyklon | ok | 06:48 |
| SoulShadow | then you'll always be waiting actionParsnip :p | 06:49 |
| Zyklon | tensorpudding: why it say it's not when I try starting it up again then? | 06:49 |
| Zyklon | worked now | 06:50 |
| wrektjet | im having real problems getting my router to play nice with 10.04. in connected thru it right now, and xchat is working. but the web is hit or miss. sometimes it works and other times it times out over and over. | 06:50 |
| Zyklon | one more thing easiest way to unpack a .rar file in ubuntu? | 06:50 |
| tensorpudding | wrektjet: it could be a dns issue | 06:50 |
| fratzbc | Zyklon: what do you get as output when you do "ps auxf | grep firefox" | 06:51 |
| actionParsnip | SoulShadow: indeed, but i never buy it. I just like to read the stuff | 06:51 |
| fratzbc | there must be some process running | 06:51 |
| Zyklon | fratzbc: I got it to work | 06:51 |
| fratzbc | Zyklon: ok | 06:51 |
| Zyklon | now I need help unpacking a .rar file | 06:51 |
| Zyklon | :) | 06:51 |
| actionParsnip | SoulShadow: my fastest cpu is 1.6Ghz sempron :) | 06:51 |
| DasEi | Zyklon: install unp and all desired codecs, one command for all compressions | 06:51 |
| fratzbc | unrar x -y file.rar | 06:51 |
| Zyklon | oki | 06:51 |
| DasEi | !info unp | 06:51 |
| ubottu | unp (source: unp): unpack (almost) everything with one command. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.15 (lucid), package size 10 kB, installed size 76 kB | 06:51 |
| actionParsnip | Zyklon: sudo apt-get install rar unrar p7zip-rar p7zip-full you can then use fileroller in nautilus, or: rar x filename.rar# | 06:52 |
| tensorpudding | wrektjet: a way to test would be to run dig for various websites, and see the time it takes to get a response | 06:52 |
| wrektjet | tensorpudding, i have it set to get dns automatically | 06:52 |
| SoulShadow | actionParsnip lol | 06:52 |
| SoulShadow | the intel 300gb will be nice to pick up | 06:52 |
| DasEi | Zyklon: sudo apt-get install unrar unp | 06:52 |
| kevdog | tar -zxvf tar.file | 06:52 |
| actionParsnip | SoulShadow: i chat and browse the web, i dont need anything more | 06:52 |
| tensorpudding | wrektjet: wrektjet what dns servers are listed in /etc/resolv.conf? | 06:52 |
| DasEi | Zyklon: sudo apt-get install p7zip-full , and so on | 06:53 |
| tensorpudding | wrektjet: it's probably that your router is doing dns, and doing it really badly | 06:53 |
| actionParsnip | kevdog: rar, not tar. and -z is only needed for gzipped tars ;) | 06:53 |
| wrektjet | lol | 06:53 |
| Zyklon | ok I'll try | 06:53 |

| fratzbc | Zyklon: msg me your problem | 06:57 |
| Zyklon | ok | 06:57 |
| noisewaterphd | hopefully that means the end of supporting crappy dell notebook wifi issues | 06:57 |
| DasEi | !broadcom | noisewaterphd | 06:57 |
| ubottu | noisewaterphd: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx | 06:58 |
| kevdog | what: openfwwf has been providing broadcom open source drivers for a select number of devices for a while now? at least 2 years | 06:58 |
| kdc1956 | I install all of those driver and it still want go wireless | 06:58 |
| noisewaterphd | broadcom themselves opensourced there wifi drivers | 06:59 |
| kevdog | when? | 06:59 |
| sculptured | kdc1956, the Acer InviLink Nplify (your netbooks NIC) apparently only has windows drivers, you may have to use Ndiswrapper | 07:00 |
| kevdog | and more importantly -- are they in any form no compile and run on an install now? | 07:00 |
| noisewaterphd | the issue could be avoided if manufacturers would put decent wifi chipsets in in the first place | 07:00 |
| kdc1956 | how do I do that | 07:00 |

| fratzbc | Zyklon: check msg | 07:01 |
| kevdog | kdc1956: what's the chipset of your wireless device? | 07:01 |
| wrektjet | would anyone recommend changing the dns settings to for example googles dns in the /etc/resolv.conf file and would i then have to change settings in the router config page (that i conecct to within a browser) | 07:01 |
| kdc1956 | no idea | 07:02 |
| harovali | why does libpam tend to break so fragily ? | 07:02 |
| saik0 | Is there a way to remove a package from the dpkg db while leaving the files intact. (And yes I'm aware thats a really bad idea) | 07:02 |
| harovali | (i could fix it, happily) | 07:02 |
| harovali | it has happened to debian / ubuntu systems under my administration in a number of years | 07:03 |
| harovali | three or four times IIRC | 07:03 |
| actionParsnip | saik0: you could extract the deb and manually copy the files to the relevant places | 07:03 |
| kevdog | kdc1956: lshw -C network | 07:04 |
| actionParsnip | saik0: its a really BAD idea | 07:04 |
| actionParsnip | saik0: but if you want to do it, i can't stop you | 07:04 |
| saik0 | actionParsnip: Actually I have a package that was installed with a broken postrm script | 07:04 |
| kdc1956 | where do I do this at in shell | 07:04 |
| DasEi | wrektjet: you could try this, but.. how do you connect to your router ? are you using a firewall ? checked syslog for hints on connection cuts ? | 07:05 |
| actionParsnip | saik0: then move the postrm to ~ then remove the package | 07:05 |
| saik0 | Cant remove it, I know i could reinstall it but I would need a working package, in short it would be much easier to just remove the the dpkg db and rm the files, as there are only a few | 07:05 |
| kevdog | kdc1956: yes -- and look for your wireless card and where the driver is listed -- or card type and revision number | 07:06 |
| sculptured | i think someone might find this funny, i just wrote a program named please that calls sudo, so whenever I want to run a program as super user i have to say please | 07:06 |
| kdc1956 | ok thanks | 07:06 |
| DasEi | wrektjet: in default, resolve.conf will be overwritten in next reboot | 07:06 |
| saik0 | actionParsnip: not sure i follow | 07:06 |
| DasEi | sculptured: you could just use an alias for this | 07:07 |
| sculptured | DasEi: I didn't even know alias existed. >.< | 07:08 |
| wrektjet | DasEi, im not using any particular firewall and nothing really seems to show up in syslog | 07:08 |
| noisewaterphd | sculptured: now you have to type more | 07:08 |
| actionParsnip | saik0: if you move the postrm file the system will simply remove the files in a normal reboot stylee | 07:08 |

| rypervenche | Hi everyone. I'm going to set up dual boot on my netbook and I have 280GB to partition. I want the maximum amount set aside for /home. How much do you think I should set aside for Windows 7? As of now it takes up 17GB of space. | 07:09 |
| * SoulShadow waits for someone to click it. | 07:09 | |
| noisewaterphd | sculptured: but ya, that's enough for a chuckle now and then | 07:09 |
| DasEi | wrektjet: sudo apt-get install pastebinit | 07:09 |
| sculptured | noisewaterphd: that was my goal, im glad you appreciate it | 07:10 |

| rypervenche | No one knows how much space I should leave for Windows 7? :/ | 07:11 |
| rypervenche | I won't be using it for much. | 07:11 |
| DasEi | wrektjet: pastebinit /etc/network/interfaces , give resulting url from terminal here | 07:12 |
| rypervenche | But for programs that I can't run on Ubuntu. | 07:12 |
| SoulShadow | rypervenche that's impossible to say | 07:12 |
| SoulShadow | we have no idea what programs or what you'll be doing | 07:12 |
| graphitemaster | can I get some help here | 07:12 |
| DasEi | rypervenche: consider drives became cheap :) | 07:12 |
| rypervenche | Well, I want as little as possible. I will be playing Final Fantasy VII on it, and I'll probably put a few Chinese programs on it, not too much. | 07:12 |
| DasEi | !ask | graphitemaster | 07:12 |
| ubottu | graphitemaster: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 07:12 |
| graphitemaster | I'm sick and tired of ubuntu software channel loading up when I download debs | 07:12 |
| rypervenche | Someone recommended 80GB. | 07:13 |
| graphitemaster | I want to use Gdebi! | 07:13 |
| rypervenche | I feel that it may be too much though. | 07:13 |
| graphitemaster | I'm trying to download some stuff from playdeb, and I'm using ubuntu 10.10, so it loads up in the software channel, instead of actually download the .deb package. | 07:13 |
| graphitemaster | and says the package is not found. | 07:14 |
| wrektjet | DasEi, i would love to. connection timed out/ | 07:14 |
| wrektjet | ironic | 07:14 |
| graphitemaster | in-fact, ubuntu 10.10 I understand is the beta version, but you need to seriously add the game packages to the sources. | 07:14 |
| graphitemaster | since, they work flawlessly. | 07:14 |
| DasEi | wrektjet: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 07:15 |
| saik0 | actionParsnip: got it, didnt know that all the pre/post scripts were stored in /var/lib/dpkg/info | 07:15 |
| DasEi | !lucid | graphitemaster | 07:15 |
| ubottu | graphitemaster: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1004 | 07:15 |
| DasEi | !getdeb | 07:15 |
| graphitemaster | DasEi, ues I'm using ubuntu 10.10 | 07:16 |
| graphitemaster | *yes | 07:16 |
| actionParsnip | saik0: slightly more graceful eh ;) | 07:16 |
| DasEi | !maverick > graphitemaster | 07:16 |
| ubottu | graphitemaster, please see my private message | 07:16 |
| wrektjet | but all it has is "auto lo" and "iface lo inet loopback" | 07:17 |
| DasEi | graphitemaster: for almost all circumstances you can add repositories- on your own risk of instability or a borked apt | 07:17 |
| kevdog | wrektjet: what is problem? | 07:17 |
| graphitemaster | yeah, I understand that, but I just need ubuntu to stop opening up the software channel when people download .debs | 07:17 |
| wrektjet | DasEi, the contents of etc/network.interfaces is "auto lo" and "iface lo inet loopback" | 07:17 |
| graphitemaster | erm apturl | 07:18 |
| saik0 | actionParsnip: Yeah, just fixed the offending lines. Then removed the package | 07:18 |
| DasEi | wrektjet: how do connect to your router, dhcp ? | 07:18 |
| graphitemaster | DasEi, when ubuntu sees an apturl it loads up the software channel, and locates the package. | 07:18 |
| graphitemaster | from it;s own sources. | 07:18 |
| graphitemaster | DasEi, this breaks playdeb, since apt-url is suppose to download the dep, then launch it with Gdebi | 07:18 |
| wrektjet | DasEi, at the moment yes. i figure if i can get dhcp i can try static afterwards | 07:19 |
| DasEi | wrektjet: yes | 07:19 |
| wrektjet | DasEi, it WAS working on static but that failed so i reverted to dhcp, that worked for a while then failed as well | 07:19 |
| graphitemaster | I just need apturls to actually open with apturl... | 07:20 |
| DasEi | wrektjet: lspci , just an eth0 ? | 07:20 |
| graphitemaster | not this silly software managment tool, gui thingy, what ever you guys call it. | 07:20 |
| DasEi | graphitemaster: if your sources are set up properly, can go with apt without softwarecenter opening | 07:21 |
| kevdog | wrektjet: Having problem with your wireless network card? | 07:21 |
| wrektjet | DasEi, just the one ethernet controller | 07:22 |
| DasEi | kevdog: no, he's having trouble with connection cuts on a wired router | 07:22 |
| graphitemaster | DasEi, it's not suppose to download the package from ubuntu sources. | 07:22 |
| wrektjet | kevdog, not even wireless. | 07:22 |
| graphitemaster | it's suppose to download from playdeb. | 07:22 |
| kevdog | sucks -- what wired card | 07:22 |
| DasEi | wrektjet: gksudo gedit /etc/interfaces | 07:22 |
| fratzbc | omg sun is in my screen... what todo?! | 07:23 |

| DasEi | jacob2010: I'm no good with ati, but remove fglry for sure on it | 07:25 |
| DasEi | x* | 07:25 |

| SoulShadow | lets just put it that way | 07:26 |
| DasEi | jacob2010: there had been improvements on this card, but need to find someone using it, too | 07:27 |
| SoulShadow | ugh i kinda wish ubuntu had inxi by default | 07:27 |
| SoulShadow | so he could just /exec -o inxi -xG | 07:27 |
| SoulShadow | would explain everything i bet :p | 07:27 |

| DasEi | wrektjet: if so (IP) can add a line : gateway 192.XXX.... | 07:28 |
| neil_d | it seems that when you do a shutdown or reset from the panel... gnome isn't logged out first.... :( ... If I have setup /etc/gdm/PostSession/Default to un-mount my samba shares ... if I logout then reset everything goes fine.. if I just reset from the panel, it doesn't reset properly... it hangs with cifs errors :( | 07:28 |
| brummbaer | hi, does anyone know if scripts in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/ are run only on connection or also at disconnect? | 07:28 |
| wrektjet | DasEi, and delete previous lines or add these lines in addition to what was b4 | 07:28 |
| DasEi | wrektjet: save the file, close gedit | 07:28 |

| ActionParsnip | wrektjet: i'd get a nice linksys personally they run a *nix based OS ;) | 07:40 |
| wrektjet | DasEi, simply nameserver 10.0.0.1 | 07:41 |
| wrektjet | was considering changing to google dns which is 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 (thats how we started chatting) | 07:41 |
| ActionParsnip | yukongt: 3rd party companies like brother and canon seem to only make 32bit drivers. This is similar in other situations and is why 32bit is advised but if you want/need 64bit then run with it :) | 07:42 |
| DasEi | wrektjet: can have different reasons, bad cable, broken nick, bad router, ISP probs.. mtu settings 10 instead of least 100 link, dns... and more | 07:42 |
| DasEi | nic* | 07:42 |
| tensorpudding | wrektjet: did you test your dns using dig? | 07:42 |
| wrektjet | tensorpudding, no. how do i do that | 07:43 |
| tensorpudding | wrektjet: try grabbing dns records from several different sites using dig, and see what kind of times you get | 07:43 |
| Tempus_Fugit | Well I am very impressed that COD works with wine that is too cool ...not sure if my lappy can handle the graphics though but that would be cool | 07:43 |
| ActionParsnip | When anyone mentions dig I always think of the mudvayne song | 07:43 |
| tensorpudding | wrektjet: 'dig www.google.com', or the like | 07:43 |
| DasEi | Tempus_Fugit: it does ? hola | 07:43 |
| DasEi | Tempus_Fugit: which version ? | 07:43 |
| ActionParsnip | Tempus_Fugit: probably because it uses proper opengl | 07:43 |

| ActionParsnip | Blue1: I believe there was some groping ;) | 07:59 |
| graphitemaster | I think I b0rked my ubuntu :P | 07:59 |
| graphitemaster | we'll see | 08:00 |
| Blue1 | ActionParsnip: no he was the guy trying to put linux on an ssd. | 08:00 |
| graphitemaster | i just damaged some stuff. | 08:00 |
| olskolirc | how graphitemaster | 08:00 |
| Blue1 | get the duct tape | 08:00 |
| ActionParsnip | Blue1: usb-creator does that nicely or the universal thing from pendrivelinux for windows | 08:00 |
| cklabe | Lol. | 08:00 |
| graphitemaster | well, I for one added some sources to my list, from lucid ontop of maverik | 08:00 |
| graphitemaster | then managed to break my keyring, and gpg in genreal. | 08:01 |
| ActionParsnip | graphitemaster: well that's a bad idea to start with | 08:01 |
| Blue1 | ActionParsnip: yeah we were trying to get him there.... | 08:01 |
| graphitemaster | so I removed the lucid sources and did an update again | 08:01 |
| graphitemaster | and gpg keyring was total brokem | 08:01 |
| Blue1 | uh oh | 08:01 |
| graphitemaster | so i purged gpg | 08:01 |
| graphitemaster | and it removed apt, and apturl and everything. | 08:01 |
| graphitemaster | so now I'm installing gpg2 and stuff from maverik | 08:02 |
| graphitemaster | and idk, i think this is totaly broken now. | 08:02 |
| graphitemaster | it's getting all kinds of broken packages. | 08:02 |
| Blue1 | in the star trek vernacular: "It's dead, Jim!" | 08:02 |
| graphitemaster | as long as it boots :P | 08:03 |
| graphitemaster | i can fix it. | 08:03 |
| ActionParsnip | graphitemaster: lucid is lucid, maverick is maverick. You can't mix them as you have seen. There is a clear distinction between and mixing is not supported nor advised. Same with adding debian repos and such | 08:03 |
| Blue1 | graphitemaster: and get to console. | 08:03 |
| ActionParsnip | graphitemaster: even if it doesn't boot you can fix it using chroot ;) | 08:03 |
| cklabe | I have a Triton see2 uv150 USB to VGA adapter, can i setup dual monitors with this? | 08:03 |
| graphitemaster | if it does not boot, I will just reinstall :P | 08:03 |
| graphitemaster | i have eveythign backed up anyways. | 08:04 |
| fratzbc | any squid users here? | 08:04 |
| graphitemaster | nothing is saved on the same hd as my os | 08:04 |
| ActionParsnip | graphitemaster: as long as the OS has dpkg you should be able to install debs manually. Its going to be a long climb back | 08:04 |
| Blue1 | graphitemaster: always have a path back to the way it was, before you messed it up! | 08:04 |
| graphitemaster | ActionParsnip, I can just reinstall if i break it. | 08:04 |
| graphitemaster | ohh there goes GNOME | 08:04 |
| graphitemaster | yay! | 08:04 |
| Blue1 | yup, sometimes the way ahead, is to take 2 steps bck. | 08:04 |
| ActionParsnip | cklabe: if you run: sudo lshw -C display ,do you see both you current card and the usb thing? | 08:04 |
| yukongt | my laptop has the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500M. Does anything extra drivers or anything need to be installed for it besides what ever came from the regular ubuntu install? | 08:04 |
| cklabe | yes ActionParsnip | 08:05 |
| ActionParsnip | yukongt: the stock install should run it. You can use an xorg.conf to maybe define better options | 08:05 |
| graphitemaster | well that did nothing. | 08:05 |
| graphitemaster | more packages :D | 08:05 |
| graphitemaster | this is the most unstable OS I'm running.. | 08:06 |
| ActionParsnip | cklabe: ok use the monitor item in the system menu someplace to see if you can setup stuff there. You may need an xorg.conf file to make it fly | 08:06 |
| ActionParsnip | !dualhead | cklabe | 08:06 |
| ubottu | cklabe: Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama | 08:06 |
| graphitemaster | KSPLICED kernel patches, borked nvidia drivers, totally messed ubuntu packages, and it's running :P | 08:06 |
| graphitemaster | as long as I don't reboot, I should be fine hehehehe | 08:07 |
| ActionParsnip | graphitemaster: the OS is fine if you run it right and don't mix between releases | 08:07 |
| graphitemaster | ActionParsnip, oh there is mixed releases galore here :D | 08:07 |
| ActionParsnip | graphitemaster: that's why you are getting issues then | 08:07 |
| graphitemaster | i think i have 9.04 packages in my sources too LP:P | 08:07 |
| ActionParsnip | graphitemaster: i'd reinstall and keep to your own release | 08:08 |
| cklabe | Thank you ActionParsnip. That at least gives me a lead. The system menue option for monitors dosnt seem to detect it. | 08:09 |
| graphitemaster | all I have to do is, purge everything, run from terminal, and pop back in my cd, reinstall the sources of lucid, and install apt, and gpg keys, and run apt-get update, apt-get upgrade, then boot up, run update-manager -d and upgrade the distro back to 10.10 | 08:09 |
| graphitemaster | it's not hard really. | 08:09 |
| graphitemaster | it's just repetitive. | 08:09 |
| ActionParsnip | graphitemaster: maverick isn't supported here either | 08:09 |
| cklabe | ActionParsnip: How would I setup a xorg.conf? Any documentation I have found points to a directory that dosnt seem to exist on 10.04 | 08:10 |
| ActionParsnip | cklabe: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf ,then search online for sample files and syntax | 08:11 |
| ActionParsnip | cklabe: lucid doesn't ship with one but if one is present it will be obeyed | 08:11 |
| ActionParsnip | cklabe: someone may have a dualhead xorg.conf you can use/edit | 08:12 |
| graphitemaster | ActionParsnip, it seems everything over here is going smooth :D | 08:12 |

| graphitemaster | allan8904, yes | 08:30 |
| allan8904 | graphitemaster: how would i do that? | 08:30 |
| graphitemaster | System->Preferences->Main Menu | 08:31 |
| gdb | (That's not what allan8904 means.) | 08:32 |
| graphitemaster | no? | 08:33 |
| graphitemaster | what does he mean then | 08:33 |
| allan8904 | nah gdb is right, not what i'm after | 08:33 |
| graphitemaster | ohh the window list. | 08:33 |
| allan8904 | yeah :) | 08:33 |
| graphitemaster | yeah, umm sorry, humm | 08:33 |
| graphitemaster | you can look around in gconf-editor | 08:33 |
| allan8904 | i'm in the config file | 08:33 |
| graphitemaster | perhaps there is something. | 08:33 |
| allan8904 | but i dont know the syntax to do it >.< | 08:33 |
| allan8904 | thought someone here might know | 08:33 |
| graphitemaster | I never knew you could edit it, so I don't know. | 08:34 |
| graphitemaster | if I was any smart I would assume it;s standard glib keyfile synatax, | 08:35 |
| allan8904 | haha, yeah but even using that there would need to be a keyword for "do not show this one" type thing :S | 08:35 |
| graphitemaster | google the filename, and look at results | 08:36 |

| s5s | Why is ubuntu so buggy? Hotplugging a simple external HDD doesn't work - I can't unmount it after mounting it. Then the icons stay on my desktop even when it was unplugged. Even root cannot unmount! WTF? | 08:41 |

| egonw | moin, I am trying to upgrade a machine from jaunty to karmic, but stuck with udev not completing the postinstall... why is that postinstall not finishing, and how can I fix it, or at least get some further ideas on how to get the updrade working again? | 08:43 |
| quiescens | allan8904: you should technically editor the .gconf stuff using gconf-editor, but I don't know if you can do what you want there anyway | 08:44 |
| s5s | allan8904: yes, I've also tried -a, -af, -al. Not to mention that the terminal hangs and C^c doesn't even work. I've never seen C^c not work before. | 08:44 |

| graphitemaster | okay telinit1 | 08:45 |
| graphitemaster | brb | 08:45 |
| allan8904 | quiescens: yeah i wasnt 100% sure it was do-able either....i just had it configured that way in ICEWM and i have hoping i could do the same with a gnome panel | 08:45 |
| quiescens | allan8904: if you're using normal or extra for visual effects (or compiz in other words) the compiz settings can do it in the window rules bit | 08:45 |
| allan8904 | quiescens: well compiz is my window manager....where do i look for window rules? | 08:46 |
| quiescens | allan8904: you'll have to install compizconfig-settings-manager | 08:46 |
| quiescens | allan8904: and then it'll be in system, preferences, compizconfig settings manager | 08:47 |
| allan8904 | quiescens: which window rule would i be after? | 08:48 |
| quiescens | skip taskbar | 08:48 |
| ohio | whenever i try to copy large file in my pendrive ,after sometime it stops saying that "I/O error".Why is it happening? | 08:48 |
| quiescens | easiest way will be to click the plus sign, grab, and then click on the window you want to hide | 08:49 |
| allan8904 | quiescens: hmm it doesnt seem to be working, but that might be because compiz doesnt know about gnome-panel. I'll look into it. Thanks :) | 08:50 |

| rajabi | Hi | 08:51 |
| allan8904 | quiescens: yeah its enabled....but this is a sort of "ubuntufromscratch" installation so its probably not all configured the way it should be | 08:52 |
| soreau | allan8904: Seems to work fine here. Make sure you have a correct window match | 08:52 |
| metatagg | Krystian: then a 'killall nautilus' should do it | 08:52 |

| allan8904 | quiescens: yeah so i have that part figured out now, all i have to do is get compiz to reconginse the gnome panel. That shouldnt be too hard. Thanks for your help :) | 08:53 |
| Krystian | metatagg: Thanks it worked:) | 08:53 |

| soreau | allan8904: 'compiz to reconginse the gnome panel' doesn't make any sense. What match are you trying? | 08:53 |
| allan8904 | soreau: match? | 08:54 |
| quiescens | allan8904: it should work as it is, what are you trying to hide? some windows might not have a class and you'll have to use a different filter or whatever | 08:54 |
| soreau | allan8904: Yes, in window rules plugin, you have to match the windows you want for skip taskbar | 08:54 |
| rajabi | Hi , I have a ubuntu 10.04 i386 , my labtop is Dell xps 1530 , my ubuntu sometimes crashed in startup , My system crashed before start GDM please help me | 08:54 |
| quiescens | allan8904: just as an example, for the text field next to Skip taskbar, if you enter something like class=Firefox | 08:55 |
| allan8904 | quiescens: The compiz installation and gnome-panel installation are in seperate "enviroments"..which seems to be where my problem is. I'm going uninstall it from the "cage" enviroment into the "root" enviroment and then it should work | 08:55 |

| Z3R0 | airtonix, couldn't find it, I'm using kde | 09:14 |
| airtonix | Z3R0, then you need to mention that, because unless otherwise specified it's assumed you are using ubuntu 10,04 and Gnome. | 09:14 |

| michal1 | internal mic and internal speaker don't work! can anyone help? it suppost to be so easy. | 09:16 |
| egonw | deena: updrade, install from cd? | 09:16 |
| airtonix | ns5, in the program preferences | 09:16 |
| quiescens | ns5: right click, profiles, profile preferences, background | 09:16 |
| deena | install from cd | 09:16 |
| yeriyahoovaio | quiescens: Thanks, what can i do to fix it, newbie to Linux? | 09:16 |
| ljsoftnet | how do i put only a volume control in gnome panel? | 09:17 |
| ns5 | quiescens: which one to choose in background? | 09:17 |
| egonw | deena: you downloaded and burned the CD (or DVD) already? | 09:17 |
| deena | no i want to know latest version which is in standard | 09:17 |
| egonw | deena: 10.04, lucid? | 09:17 |
| kneaux | what is ADE? | 09:18 |
| ns5 | quiescens: In old ubuntu, if you choose "single color" for background, it'll be non-transparent. But in ubuntu 10.04, with "single color", you get transparent background | 09:18 |
| quiescens | ns5: my options are "solid colour", "background image", and "transparent background" | 09:19 |
| michal1 | internal mic and internal speaker don't work! outside speakers work tho. i need to use skype but can't. using alsa mixer. nothing muted. please help. my girlfriend wants me to switch back to windows! :) | 09:19 |
| kneaux | psh girlfriends | 09:20 |
| deena | egonw -- is it 10.04 or 10.10 beta? | 09:20 |
| kneaux | have you tried using a different audio driver | 09:20 |
| michal1 | kneaux: no | 09:21 |
| egonw | deena: 10.04 is the stable one, 10.10 is the beta, in development version | 09:21 |
| kneaux | also you know how to use alsamixer right | 09:21 |
| ns5 | quiescens: I'm using Chinese language, so I need to guess. By "single colour" I mean "solid color". | 09:21 |
| deena | ok thanks | 09:21 |
| michal1 | kneaux: yeah, nothing difficult, have 3 sliders and use them as control volume. | 09:21 |
| egonw | deena: the 10.04 is for 4th month of 2010 , 10.10 is for the 10th month of 2010, etc | 09:21 |
| quiescens | ns5: well, the first option seems to work for me, only the third option makes it transparent | 09:22 |
| aliverius | i am getting this while compiling misdn: configure: error: kernel build tree does not exist build:/lib/modules/2.6.32-24-server/build / source:/lib/modules/2.6.32-24-server/source | 09:22 |
| deena | can i get the link to download | 09:22 |
| deena | ? | 09:22 |
| ns5 | quiescens: The first option "solid colour" makes gnome-terminal half transparent here on my PC. | 09:22 |
| michal1 | kneaux: maybe i should download original driver? don't know how to replace the existing one. | 09:23 |
| quiescens | ns5: that's odd, what version is your gnome-terminal | 09:23 |
| ljsoftnet | how do i put only a volume control in gnome panel? | 09:24 |
| ns5 | quiescens: 2.96.6 | 09:24 |
| at05gt | Apologizing ahead of time for Wall of Text. | 09:24 |
| ns5 | quiescens: sorry, 2.29.6 | 09:24 |
| kneaux | m1chael, don't quote me on this, but if you uninstall alsa and install a compatible driver you should be set, and that should tell you whether or not there's a hardware problem | 09:25 |
| quiescens | ns5: ah, go to colours, and you'll have to uncheck use colours from system theme | 09:25 |
| at05gt | not really sure how to ask my question without sounding like a total moron, lol | 09:26 |
| quiescens | ns5: otherwise the settings on background do nothing | 09:26 |
| egonw | deena: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download ? don't want to be blunt, but did you actually try "ubuntu download" in your favorite search engine? | 09:27 |
| at05gt | ive got 4 gigs of ram on my computer ill need the 64 bit version if i want to use all of it yes? | 09:27 |
| ns5 | quiescens: already unchecked. no luck. | 09:27 |
| at05gt | im using 32 bit vista currently and it only recognizes 3 gigs, plus my vista install is borked and the registry error can be fixed, so im looking to start over with a new OS as Ive grown tired of windows | 09:28 |
| at05gt | cant* sorry typo | 09:29 |
| quiescens | ns5: i don't suppose just dragging the bar all the way to the right in background works | 09:29 |
| at05gt | any advice for an ubuntu noob is appreciated | 09:29 |
| fratzbc | 32 bits can only see 3.x gig of mem | 09:29 |
| at05gt | ya im aware of that ive started the download for the 64 bit | 09:30 |
| fratzbc | don't know if you can fix this with a patch or whatever... but wth 32bit? :) | 09:30 |
| Jordan_U | !pae | at05gt | 09:30 |
| ubottu | at05gt: To use more than ~3.2GB RAM on a 32bit system you can install the PAE-enabled kernel. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnablingPAE for more info | 09:30 |
| fratzbc | 32 bit is so 90's | 09:30 |
| ns5 | quiescens: It works. But it's weird that "single colour" does not work. There must be some settings outside gnome-terminal that makes it transparent by default. | 09:30 |
| Jordan_U | at05gt: I still recommend using full 64 bit instead of just PAE though. | 09:30 |
| quiescens | ns5: i just don't get why it works for me, I don't remember going to any particular effort to change it | 09:30 |
| bjp | at05gt: yea i'd recommend 64 bit, i've been using it for years with no problems | 09:30 |
| at05gt | ya im downloading 64 bit as we speaking | 09:31 |
| at05gt | im on vista currently and its horrid | 09:31 |
| MalditoVGA_ | oh god...i can't run ubuntu lucid lynx...i've tried i915.modeset=1 and nomodeset using livecd but nothing works...i'm desperate...any ideas??? | 09:31 |
| at05gt | my buddy told me to try a live USB install but i dont have a 2 gig drive | 09:31 |
| === MalditoVGA_ is now known as MalditoVGA | ||
| at05gt | will it work with memory cards? or only usb drives? | 09:32 |
| at05gt | sorry i sound if i sound stupid, been windows user for 15+ years | 09:33 |
| bjp | duno, never tried a memory card | 09:33 |
| at05gt | i guess ill just have to give it a shot | 09:33 |
| at05gt | i mean if the bios allows me to boot from usb and the card reader is universal plug and play then it should recognize it as a drive on boot | 09:34 |
| bjp | MalditoVGA: old intel video card? | 09:34 |
| MalditoVGA | im not sure... | 09:36 |
| michal1 | how to download the original soundcard driver? | 09:36 |
| MalditoVGA | :D | 09:36 |
| noisewaterphd | at05gt: welcome! you'll never go ba | 09:36 |
| at05gt | god i hope not | 09:36 |
| Jordan_U | at05gt: Yes, a card reader should work fine as long as your BIOS supports it. | 09:36 |
| MalditoVGA | how do i know...computer is not mine... | 09:36 |
| at05gt | computers only a year old AMD 64 X2 4400+ processor | 09:37 |
| bjp | MalditoVGA: just curious, from the i915 thing, does it freeze when you load the desktop? or is it doing something else | 09:37 |
| neil_d | I have a gripe... I am trying to unmount some samba drives before the interface goes down... but I haven't found a way yet... the /etc/network/if-down.d/ scripts get executed after the interface is already down... and there are no if-pre-down.d etc scripts... | 09:37 |
| at05gt | this makes me wish i still had my laptop, could talk to you guys while im installing on my desk lol | 09:38 |
| MalditoVGA | monitor gets out of signal...dunno if it freezes i can't see splash screen | 09:38 |
| bjp | oh, differen't problem than what i had, can you ctrl-alt-1 | 09:38 |
| bjp | err is it ctrl-alt-f1 | 09:39 |
| bjp | yea | 09:39 |
| at05gt | quick question, since ill have 2 drives with an OS on each, how do i go about dual booting? will a message just come up asking which OS to load? | 09:39 |
| bjp | yea, grub should come up on boot | 09:40 |
| bjp | Ubuntu should detect windows and install grub with both options | 09:40 |
| at05gt | ill probably have to change the boot priorities in the bios wont i? | 09:40 |
| Jordan_U | at05gt: The great thing about the LiveCD installer is that you can do things like connect to IRC while installing. | 09:40 |
| bjp | not if you install grub to your boot drive | 09:40 |
| at05gt | alright well the live install is ready so here i go wish me luck | 09:41 |

| MalditoVGA | ctrlaltf1 does nothing | 09:44 |
| bjp | does livecd boot? | 09:44 |

| ruben23 | hi guys any help i installed ubuntu desktop 10.04 after audio is working then suddenly it stop working i cant hear anything on my headset.. | 09:46 |
| Zircon_X | I'm going to be installing Ubuntu server as an IRC server on a P IV box with a gig of RAM...would I still be able to use this box as a desktop PC? I'll mostly be web browsing and listening to music (And obviously IRC) | 09:46 |
| Zircon_X | Should I be ok with that? | 09:46 |
| taiyal | where does /etc/alternatives/x-cursor-theme point by default!? | 09:47 |
| taiyal | KDE clobbered my cursor | 09:47 |
| Katsumi32 | ruben23, try type alsamixer in terminal check up if everything is unmuted | 09:47 |
| Jordan_U | Zircon_X: Yes. | 09:47 |
| bjp | Zircon_X: if you install the ubuntu server edition it doesn't install a desktop environment by default, but you can install it from the repos, or you can install the desktop version and just use that as a server | 09:47 |
| maedox | taiyal: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 2010-05-10 13:40 /etc/alternatives/x-cursor-theme -> /usr/share/icons/DMZ-White/cursor.theme | 09:48 |
| taiyal | thank you | 09:48 |
| bjp | MalditoVGA: not sure, i've had a couple video issues before, but they didn't act like that | 09:48 |
| Zircon_X | Alright, thank you! One more question, I've tried to install Ubuntu before and I have an Audigy X-Fi sound card, which Audigy provided the source for the driers | 09:48 |
| donttrustem | is there a debootstrap script for lucid? | 09:48 |
| Zircon_X | *drivers. However, when I attempt to compile it it says something to the tune of "Variable SOUND CARD not found" | 09:48 |
| neil_d | Zircon_X: I use a standard implementaton of ubuntu as a home server myself. | 09:49 |
| ruben23 | Katsumi32: how do i check if its muted..? | 09:49 |
| Zircon_X | neil_d Ohhhh, ok. So I guess Ubuntu Server is simply Ubuntu streamlined for serving? | 09:49 |
| bjp | Zircon_X: it's basically for a server box that you wont be sitting in front of, I use server edition for my file server because it is headless | 09:50 |
| Katsumi32 | ruben23, 00 mean unmuted MM mean muted | 09:50 |
| s3r3n1t7 | Zircon_X, both the desktop and the server edition have access to the same repo's with the same software. The only difference is that the server has no desktop enviroment. | 09:50 |
| Zircon_X | OH well damn | 09:51 |
| Zircon_X | Er I mean | 09:51 |
| neil_d | Zircon_X: that is my understanding... it doesn't by default have and GUI ... no gnome or kde etc. | 09:51 |
| Zircon_X | Anyway, thanks for being helpful | 09:51 |
| R136a1 | i am running "Chromium-browser 5.0.375.127 (55887) Ubuntu 10.04", i don't remember when the last update was made. The problem is the Inspect element window doesn't show anything. All tabs are blank | 09:51 |
| ruben23 | Katsumi32: i got couple of MM, how do i unmute. | 09:51 |
| DasEi | s3r3n1t7: server has desk, too, just the software defaults are different, Zircon_X | 09:52 |
| Myx0x3 | R136a1: try reinstall, and if it does not work contact Google | 09:52 |
| Katsumi32 | ruben23, press m on your keyboard u dont need to unmute everything there are different futures like for your microphone etc | 09:52 |
| R136a1 | Myx0x3, thanks | 09:52 |
| bjp | R136a1: you could try upgrading from the daily build ppa | 09:52 |
| s3r3n1t7 | DasEi, after you install the server edition, it has no desktop environment installed. | 09:52 |
| Myx0x3 | R136a1, bjp yeah, that might work also | 09:53 |
| DasEi | s3r3n1t7: you speak of ubuntu minimal with no soft choosen, headless, server cd has desktop | 09:53 |
| * R136a1 reinstalling... i'll see what happens | 09:53 | |
| s3r3n1t7 | DasEi, i've installed a dozen VM's of a Ubuntu 10.04 server installation. The server installation does not install a desktop by default. You can install it later if you wish to do so. | 09:54 |
| bjp | DasEi: last time I installed the ubuntu server version, there was no desktop environment installed | 09:54 |
| Zircon_X | What's a good, low resource WM for ubuntu? | 09:55 |
| R136a1 | bjp, Myx0x3: reinstalling worked, thank you very much both | 09:55 |
| metatagg | Zircon_X: i like fluxbox | 09:55 |
| Myx0x3 | R136a1: no problem dude :) | 09:55 |
| DasEi | s3r3n1t7: or are we talking besides each other, with a desktop I decribe the graphical x, the workspace you get there, not the ubuntu-desktop package, but gdm provides it | 09:56 |
| R136a1 | :) | 09:56 |
| s3r3n1t7 | DasEi, the graphical X, being the command line or the screen with nice little pictures? | 09:56 |
| Myx0x3 | R136a1: take a look at Linux Mint, it uses Ubuntu, but they changed to Debian.. but if you use an "old" version of Linux Mint | 09:56 |
| Myx0x3 | R136a1: whops wrong | 09:56 |
| R136a1 | Myx0x3, no problem | 09:57 |
| Myx0x3 | Zircon_X: take a look at Linux Mint, it uses Ubuntu, but they changed to Debian.. but if you use an "old" version of Linux Mint | 09:57 |
| DasEi | s3r3n1t7: commandline is no desktop, gdm with x is, my interpretation | 09:57 |

| abhijit | neil_d, suggestion: create one variable. now initilize it with 0. now tell network mngr to fst set it 1 & yhen shut down. now check that variable in loop. as it becomes 1 you will know that nm s going to shut down. then ececute code u want. | 10:06 |

| abhijit | neil_d, thats your part to figure out. i only have logic. i dont know about sysyem programming. i m student | 10:09 |
| abhijit | neil_d, edit source code of nm. and compile it | 10:11 |

| neil_d | the network-manager scripts in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d only run when the interface is 'up' or 'down' what is needed is for them to also run when 'pre-up' and 'pre-down' (I need the 'pre-down' most) | 11:07 |
| maedox | neil_d, you can add a pre-up or pre-down command to /etc/network/interfaces | 11:07 |
| neil_d | maedox: as far as I can tell network-manager doesn't use that to bring wi-fi card up or down... I have a configured wi-fi and there is nothing in the /etc/networks/interfaces file for it. | 11:09 |
| maedox | aha, wi-fi, ok. sorry, then that won't work. | 11:09 |
| neil_d | maedox: there is a script run after the state changes... but not before. | 11:10 |
| michal1 | where can i find "Mic Boost"? | 11:10 |
| aliverius | how can i have cpufreq on my k8? loading powernow-k8 and acpi-cpufreq doesnt do | 11:11 |
| sipior | neil_d: the script in dispatcher.d does contain stanzas for pre-up and post-down; perhaps try adding one for pre-down, see if it takes? | 11:11 |
| Karen_m | whenever I connect to a VPS with ubuntu, i lose all my other connections. As soon as I disconnect from the vps, I get internet access back. What setting am I missing? | 11:11 |
| ectospasm | Karen_m: seems that your VPN connection is tunneling all traffic through itself. I dunno how to fix that though | 11:12 |
| neil_d | sipior: but it never calls the script at that time... I have tested it. it only gets called once... per state change. | 11:12 |
| fratzbc | when setting up a VPN do you take the gateway from vpn? | 11:12 |
| pfifo | my wireless router likes to add its address (192.168.2.1) to the list of nameservers when someone requests an address via dhcp. Theres no way to turn this off inside the router. The router is EXTREEEEMLY!! slow in resolving a DNS query. Everytime I boot my computer I have to go into resolv.conf and edit its settings by hand to fix this. Is there a way to automatically discard the crap nameservers my router gives me and use my own? I have tride making resolv | 11:12 |
| pfifo | .con read only but it seems root can still write to it. | 11:12 |
| Karen_m | I unchecked the settings with the VPS setup | 11:12 |
| sipior | neil_d: seems a bit odd that they would add a pre-up case condition specifically, and then not have it work. might be worth a bug report, if only for clarification. | 11:13 |
| neil_d | pfifo: try something in a script in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/ | 11:14 |
| Ologn | pfifo - what does "ls -l /etc/resolv.conf" show? | 11:14 |
| maedox | pfifo, I believe that in network-manager, you can select DHCP (Addresses only) and then set your own DNS statically. | 11:14 |
| pfifo | Ologn, right now it show what i put the manually -_- | 11:14 |
| DasEi | s3r3n1t7: he man, you are right, ubuntu-server install no desktop in default, so I mixed up there, sorry for my polling O:-) | 11:15 |
| Katsumi32 | ruben23 i showed you the first tutorial for acl cards so follow it and see if its working or not | 11:15 |
| pfifo | maedox, i dont have a gui | 11:15 |
| Ologn | pfifo: if the fourth character of "ls -l /etc/resolv.conf" is w, then root can write to it. You can change that though. | 11:15 |
| s3r3n1t7 | DasEi, no problem :-) | 11:15 |
| neil_d | sipior: I think I will... and also ask for a pre-down at the same time.... | 11:15 |
| DasEi | s3r3n1t7: didn't YOU say it had one, hehe | 11:16 |
| Ologn | pfifo: Third character rather | 11:16 |
| pfifo | Ologn, thats not a fix thats a kludge, how can I configure my system to use my nameservers? | 11:16 |
| sipior | pfifo: modify /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf, if you use dhclient to request the address. | 11:16 |
| s3r3n1t7 | DasEi, hmm? I always said it did not have a desktop, whereas you claimed it did. | 11:17 |
| DasEi | s3r3n1t7: I was kidding, as in no problem | 11:17 |
| sipior | pfifo: specifically, remove "domain-name-servers" from the request line. (check "man dhclient.conf" for more) | 11:17 |
| maedox | pfifo, add prepend to /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf google if. | 11:17 |

| ectospasm | DarkStar1: sounds like the window manager died | 12:28 |
| ectospasm | DarkStar1: can you hit CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE to kill your X session? | 12:28 |
| DarkStar1 | I'll try | 12:28 |
| encoder | hi all, i'm looking for a software to help me do screen casts, any thing that works on ubuntu? | 12:29 |
| ectospasm | DarkStar1: that's not enabled by default, so you may have to switch to another virtual terminal (CTRL-ALT-F1..6) and kill your X session from there. | 12:29 |
| DarkStar1 | nope doesn't look like the command works | 12:29 |
| kishon1 | Hi, for every command I type in prompt I get a illegal instruction error. Any pointers on this?? | 12:29 |
| DarkStar1 | ectospasm: Nope they don't work either | 12:30 |
| abhijit | DarkStar1, gtk-window-decorator --replace | 12:30 |
| DarkStar1 | ectospasm: Think I'll restart to see if the problem persists | 12:30 |
| DarkStar1 | abhijit: Thanks!!! That worked :) | 12:31 |
| abhijit | DarkStar1, good! :) | 12:31 |
| ectospasm | kishon1: even shell built-in commands like cd? | 12:31 |
| kishon1 | cd works.. | 12:32 |
| kishon1 | cp, su fails | 12:32 |
| === kishon1 is now known as kishon | ||
| DarkStar1 | abhijit: So what happened? Did the windows manager die or something? | 12:33 |
| abhijit | DarkStar1, yah. its compiz bug i think | 12:34 |
| Ruthgard | does anyone here know anything about openldap and access rules? | 12:34 |
| DarkStar1 | abhijit: Oh oh... Closing the terminal window re-instates the problem | 12:34 |
| DarkStar1 | abhijit looks like a restart is forthcoming afterall | 12:34 |
| abhijit | DarkStar1, yah. its compiz bug now do one thing add that line i gave you in startup aps and restart ubuntu | 12:34 |
| Ruthgard | Hello I have a question about accesrules. I am trying to add a rule that gives a user the write permission to all but the items name attribute and I can't get it to work. Paste: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/494119/ | 12:35 |
| Cyberai | Does anyone have experience in manually mounting an encrypted home directory that was backed up on an external hard drive? I've followed the instructions perfectly form the ubuntu help page on this. But I keep getting the error "Error mounting eCryptfs: [-20] Not a directory", and when I check /var/log/messages as it suggest I see the error "ecryptfs_read_super: path_lookup() failed". | 12:35 |
| Cyberai | so far googling those errors hasn't given me much info | 12:36 |
| DarkStar1 | abhijit: Ok. Restarting. But I'll disable it first to see if the problem persists on restart | 12:37 |
| abhijit | DarkStar1, ok | 12:37 |

| Gangrel | ok lets begin : I have followed this guide http://www.ubuntugeek.com/creating-an-adhoc-host-with-ubuntu.html that everyone suggests and here comes the problem.... i try to host using my desktop pc so that my laptop with win7 can connect but it is not visible | 13:14 |
| rockhopper | maedox, I tried reinstalling usb-modeswitch, But that doesn't help me! | 13:15 |
| maedox | rockhopper, sudo apt-get purge usb-modeswitch and then install it again. | 13:16 |

| Sander^work | Or latest 10.04 kernel | 13:17 |
| abhijit | how to insatll ap from playdeb in terminal? | 13:18 |
| Sander^work | Wondring if the hyper v drivers which is rolled into 2.6.35 also exist in latest 10.04 kernel. | 13:18 |
| Gangrel | aretrfre34 ok lets begin : I have followed this guide http://www.ubuntugeek.com/creating-an-adhoc-host-with-ubuntu.html that everyone suggests and here comes the problem.... i try to host using my desktop pc so that my laptop with win7 can connect but it is not visible | 13:18 |
| DarkStar1 | at05gt: KDE or gnome btw? | 13:18 |
| at05gt | i believe gnome | 13:19 |
| at05gt | im using lucid | 13:19 |
| Sander^work | Make it simpler: Does latest 10.04 kernel have code which only exist in 2.6.35 ? | 13:19 |
| aretrfre34 | Gangrel:ubuntu won! | 13:19 |
| at05gt | DarkStar1: so far from my foum research it appears the USB-ID is missing from the driver files and people are having to recompile to fix it, which is beyond my abilities at this time | 13:20 |
| Sander^work | I assume ubuntu patches it latest 2.6.32 kernel with things from later kernels.. or am I worng? | 13:20 |
| ectospasm | Sander^work: that's not a safe assumption | 13:20 |
| AnthLee | no they just ship a new kernel | 13:21 |
| ectospasm | Sander^work: this isn't Red Hat, et al. | 13:21 |
| AnthLee | from kernel.org after some testing | 13:21 |
| DarkStar1 | aaahh so the problem may actually be a driver issue as opposed to a system issue. Can you post me a link of one of these forums? | 13:21 |

| ectospasm | craig-t: what do you mean "access?" | 13:22 |
| Sander^work | ectospasm, So both options is possible? | 13:22 |
| craig-t | well access the server through a web browser. | 13:22 |
| ectospasm | Sander^work: yes, but it's more likely not in the current Ubuntu kernels. | 13:22 |

| ectospasm | craig-t: by default, Ubuntu doesn't have any services running, including httpd on port 80 | 13:24 |
| ectospasm | craig-t: what are you trying to do with the Ubuntu guest? | 13:25 |
| craig-t | oh.. how do I start those? i've installed apache.. | 13:25 |
| ectospasm | craig-t: service apache start, or service httpd start (can't remember which) | 13:25 |
| ectospasm | craig-t: service apache2 start | 13:26 |
| ectospasm | ...had to look it up | 13:26 |
| Sander^work | ectospasm, what does "built-in kernel modules" mean? | 13:26 |

| bazhang | kishon, thats the channel for maverick support #ubuntu+1 | 14:13 |
| AnthLee | nevropus Some nice features of that are if you install a new kernel with smxi, smxi will retain that data, then send it to sgfxi, which allows you to install the video driver to the new kernel prior to rebooting, which lets you do a full system upgrade prior to rebooting. | 14:13 |
| Sander^work | Does this statement mean that LIC 2.1 version of hyper v drivers might be included in latest 10.04?: Kernel updates apply as always to security updates and critical bugs. In addition, simple, obvious, quick or hardware relevant patches should be delivered so long as the next release is not yet in Beta form. Also, more updates will be moved upstream. | 14:13 |

| Sander^work | apw, So its not possible to automaticly make sure that my distro are updated with the latest Linux kernel? | 14:44 |
| philinux | Or look in synaptic | 14:44 |
| kemalettin_19 | philinux: http://textsnip.com/d557fcso what that means ? | 14:45 |
| bazhang | Sander^work, not in a supported manner, no | 14:45 |
| look | Sander^work: I do think that Ubuntu does get the latest linux kernels with it updates... | 14:45 |
| philinux | kemalettin_19: should be version 0.7.3-1 in 10.04 | 14:45 |
| bazhang | look, not so | 14:45 |
| rww | !latest | 14:45 |
| ubottu | Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. | 14:45 |

| Sander^work | bazhang, my problem is.. that I dont know what ubuntu include in the latest kernel.. is there a way of checking that? | 14:47 |
| apw | Sander^work, why do you need mainline kernels over the ubuntu offerings? | 14:47 |
| Sander^work | apw, because I want the latest hyperv LIC 2.1 which is included in 3.6.35.. 2.0 is included in 2.6.32 | 14:48 |
| Sander^work | 2.0 is included in 2.6.32 mainline | 14:48 |
| apw | Sander^work, so the maverick kernel is v2.6.35 based, you could try the lts-backports kernel | 14:48 |
| philinux | Sander^work: 2.6.32 is the current 10.04 kernel | 14:48 |

| look | Maf: allthough i have not done, a print server or a fax server, i have done file share servers, (ftp samba) | 15:08 |
| ikonia | Maf: ubuntu desktop is a good os to use as a server | 15:09 |
| AnthLee | no | 15:09 |
| AnthLee | its not | 15:09 |
| ikonia | yes it i | 15:10 |
| ikonia | is | 15:10 |
| maedox | ^^ | 15:10 |
| sipior | powerful arguments, on both sides. | 15:10 |
| ikonia | it's a very stable OS that is an excellent platform as a server | 15:10 |
| lk | i think it is ok | 15:10 |
| Maf | ok thanks for tips | 15:10 |
| Maf | I'm not scared of installing it | 15:10 |
| look | ikonia: it may be, but if you look at it this way, the desktop was made for regular users, not server implementaion | 15:10 |
| DarkStar1 | anyone having trouble loading up www.pastebin.org ? | 15:10 |
| ikonia | Maf: you've already got desktop installed, use that, it' solid | 15:10 |
| Maf | but: I do have to do it and have it up and runing over a weekend | 15:10 |
| ikonia | look: then you have no idea what you're talking about | 15:11 |
| maedox | learn to use ufw and you should be set no matter which you select, server or desktop. | 15:11 |
| look | ikonia: what ever you say | 15:11 |
| sipior | look: the differences are very minor, practically speaking. | 15:11 |
| erUSUL | Maf: samba can serve shares and printers ( sups can be shared via cups too install IPP driver in windows boxes http://www.owlfish.com/thoughts/winipp-cups-2003-07-20.html ) . the fax server may need a little bit more tinkering ... | 15:12 |
| Maf | and is it easy to get it to operate as a domain that Win7 users could connect to? | 15:12 |
| philinux | DarkStar1: Yep | 15:12 |
| ikonia | Maf: that's a lot more tricky | 15:12 |
| erUSUL | Maf: printers* can be shared .... | 15:12 |
| ikonia | Maf: but very do-able if your confident with what you're doing and understand the basics | 15:12 |
| DarkStar1 | philinux: Thanks. It's not just me then | 15:12 |

| maedox | Maf, do backups along the way to be safe. | 15:14 |
| philinux | DarkStar1: I can ping it ok. It must be down though | 15:14 |
| AnthLee | debian is a better server | 15:14 |

| AnthLee | centos is probably even better than that | 15:14 |
| AnthLee | gentoo slackware honestly I can think of alot of things that do servers better than ubuntu =/ | 15:14 |
| ikonia | AnthLee: please stop talking nonsense | 15:14 |
| AnthLee | never used arch but i'd try it before putting ubuntu on a server | 15:15 |
| look | ikonia: we all have our views, nonsense or not, its their choice | 15:15 |
| DarkStar1 | philinux: I'm just goingto use the .com for the time being | 15:15 |
| maedox | There are thousand of people who will disagree :D | 15:15 |
| sipior | ikonia: that's a bit heavy-handed. | 15:15 |
| ikonia | look: everyone is entitled to views, no issues, but just stating nonsense to people with no-substance is not welcome | 15:15 |
| AnthLee | that was not non-sense that was truth ubuntu is fine as a desktop os but as a server? | 15:15 |
| philinux | DarkStar1: Or this http://paste.ubuntu.com/ | 15:15 |
| ikonia | AnthLee: please explain to me something that gentoo can do as a server that is better than ubuntu ? | 15:16 |
| AnthLee | specifically running the desktop version instead of the server edition for a server is bad advice | 15:16 |
| ikonia | AnthLee: why | 15:16 |

| AnthLee | and possibly more security vulnerabilities then other competing server distros since its built off debian unstable that does not have a security team | 15:17 |
| ikonia | AnthLee: possibly - you mean you don't know, so I'll say this again unless you "know" don't talk nonsense to people | 15:17 |

| AnthLee | thinwhiteduke do you have the proprietary drivers for your video card installed | 16:56 |
| ThinWhiteDuke | yeah | 16:57 |
| ThinWhiteDuke | i used to have video problems in general with flickering | 16:57 |
| ThinWhiteDuke | but i was able to disable a feature on the compizconfig called unredirect full screen | 16:58 |
| ThinWhiteDuke | or actually i had to enable that | 16:58 |
| ThinWhiteDuke | then the flickering stopped | 16:58 |
| AnthLee | disabling compiz in general | 16:58 |
| AnthLee | will help flash playback | 16:58 |
| noSound2 | hello all. Anyone here willing to help a newbie with a sound configuration problem? No sound after upgrade to 10.04 | 16:59 |

| ThinWhiteDuke | i have 32 bit | 16:59 |
| AnthLee | try disabling compiz and shutting down any un-needed background processes consider switching to xubuntu and purging some pork for a more responsive system | 17:00 |

| d1gital | hello, room. I am using the Broadcom STA wireless drivers for my BCM4322 in promisc mode to sniff packets with Wireshark. The trouble is, I'm only seeing ARP and UDP traffic. No capture filters are enabled. Why are the packets from my other laptop not visible in Wireshark?> | 17:14 |
| bobstro | rionstrife: that will be more of a router configuration issue... unless you are using a linux router? | 17:14 |
| at05gt | thanks Anth i wasnt aware that package existed :) | 17:14 |
| AnthLee | np | 17:15 |
| jdimatteo | I don't want to run my vpn software as root, but I'm sort of a newb, can someone please recommend a group I can my user to use ppp and ppers? or please suggest relevant doc or another channel? | 17:15 |
| philinux | ThinWhiteDuke: Thanks | 17:16 |
| eraggo | d1gital: fireshark sniffs only traffic that comes to your computer (as i know) | 17:16 |
| aretrfre34 | !wayttd | 17:18 |
| aretrfre34 | !ubutto wayttd | 17:18 |
| d1gital | eraggo: Both computers are connected to the same wireless network, so the card must be receiving the packets; but somewhere along the line they are dropped before Wireshark can analyze them. | 17:18 |
| Spyzer | hi all, can we have different ubuntu main menu for different user accounts?? | 17:19 |

| Spyzer | no i mean which file does it write to?? | 17:21 |
| Spyzer | gnome.conf?? | 17:22 |
| Spyzer | and is that possible in kde as well | 17:22 |
| eraggo | d1gital: do you see normal browsing in wireshrak? i'm kind of sure that if packet is sent to certain ip, receiver will drop packet if it isn't meant for it.. | 17:22 |
| maedox | at05gt, how did the nvidia thing turn out? I was away for a while... | 17:24 |
| d1gital | eraggo: I can see traffic to/from the machine wireshark is running on, but I thought that Wireshark would put the card into promiscuous mode in order to dump all traffic it sees. | 17:24 |
| collabra | Spyzer: not sure... | 17:25 |
| gh0zt | d1gital depends how your router is set up | 17:25 |
| at05gt | maedox: its working now | 17:25 |
| gh0zt | d1gital some configs will isolate the traffic | 17:25 |

| Paddy_NI | brontoeee, Yes but apparently the PPA packages are old | 17:26 |
| maedox | at05gt, great :) | 17:26 |
| brontoeee | Paddy_NI, old? like old version of unity for lynx and brand new for merkat | 17:27 |
| Paddy_NI | brontoeee, I would wait unless you want a broken desktop/netbook interface | 17:27 |
| d1gital | gh0zt oh, I was not aware. how does that work? (a link/google query would be fine =]) | 17:27 |
| Paddy_NI | brontoeee, no as in just old compared to the latest version | 17:27 |
| NeKit|EeePC | hello | 17:27 |
| brontoeee | Paddy_NI, how about upgrade of lynx to merkat beta, how much would that brake? | 17:27 |
| NeKit|EeePC | is there any way to install (and use :)) Ubuntu with about 1 Gb of space? | 17:28 |
| gh0zt | d1gital check your router wireless security config for AP Isolation | 17:28 |
| xangua | NeKit|EeePC: ubuntu minimal¿ | 17:28 |
| eraggo | d1gital: why you would like to see traffic other than on your computer? | 17:28 |
| NeKit|EeePC | I want to use it on EeePC 700 2G Surf | 17:28 |
| Paddy_NI | brontoeee, well its in beta still but if you wish to give it a try I would suggest chatting with the folks on #ubuntu+1 to get an better idea of what to expect | 17:28 |
| NeKit|EeePC | but still I have to keep one partition for Windows XP | 17:28 |
| Paddy_NI | brontoeee, they could always use more testers | 17:28 |
| Paddy_NI | :) | 17:28 |
| brontoeee | Paddy_NI, ok | 17:29 |
| brontoeee | Paddy_NI, nah, i need features, unfortunatelly my time is limited..... | 17:29 |

| jdimatteo | so I've got a file /usr/sbin/pppd owned by the group dip, and I added my user to the dip group, but I still can't execute pppd -- do I need to reload the group file or something? | 17:29 |
| bobstro | d1gital: is this your network, or you're just poking around? | 17:31 |
| bobstro | d1gital: what you're seeing is probably the only unencrypted traffic that wireshark is finding. | 17:31 |
| crawler | hi there. i need help making this launcher work right, it's an "application in the teminal launcher", and the command is "rm -rf /home/dimension/emptythis/*" but when i click the launcher, nothing happens..any ideas? | 17:32 |

| blaz_ | Kristiina: sorry I did not follow from the start but if it is a problem with skype 'audio recording settings' then there is also something called 'Capture' in alsamixer and I had to press space to switch it on. | 18:35 |
| svzard | dajhorn: i guess i had /home/.Private or something. The thing is some update screwed my ubuntu. If I login my keyboard and mouse freezes. | 18:35 |
| svzard | dajhorn: so i want to access my files before i t/s or reinstall ubuntu. | 18:36 |

| Dr_Willis | dakota: depens on what you want to do. You can install a stand alone vncserver if you want . but if you are going to use desktop apps on vnc. may as well install desktop to begin with. | 19:11 |
| Licuadora | coz_: Like, Blender, they still have 2.49 when the 2.53 version is already out there | 19:11 |
| coz_ | Licuadora, well I believe the x-update ppa would have most of the recent drivers and as for blender you can compile that manually if you want or see if there is an ubuntu ppa for blender | 19:12 |
| Licuadora | x-updates, how can i do that? | 19:12 |

| dakota | Dr_Willis thats what I was thinking....I like to use a GUI when possible, but I like to get down in the nitty gritty with the terminal aswell... | 19:12 |
| Licuadora | My point exactly, since not all software is the most recent in Ubuntu, i have to compile this driver... But how!? | 19:12 |
| Dr_Willis | dakota: you can isntall the desktopp version and just set GDM to not run. but its there if you need it. | 19:13 |

| dakota | Dr_Willis but the game server is all in command line configuration and the file server could be either gui or commandline. | 19:14 |

| erUSUL | Kristiina: use « zless /usr/share/doc/alsa-base/driver/HD-Audio-Models.txt.gz » | 19:16 |
| coz_ | Licuadora, well if you downloaded from nvidia you are going to jump through a few hooops to get that installed | 19:16 |
| coz_ | Licuadora, that is an older driver anyway | 19:16 |
| Licuadora | Oh no, wait, in the Nvidia x server sttings, my driver version is 195.36.24 | 19:16 |

| Kristiina | blaz_: i don't know, maybe i should go the long way like on this spanish page? :) what you think? | 19:27 |
| trond- | trojan_spike, as this is a new system, I can just reinstall ubuntu | 19:27 |
| blaz_ | Kristiina: oops sorry it is actually one long line: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-audio-dev/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y install install linux-alsa-driver-modules-$(uname -r) | 19:27 |
| blaz_ | Kristiina: may be a good way to iprove spanish but installing from PPA sound safer | 19:27 |
| pfifo | hi | 19:28 |
| trojan_spike | u can package manager the images // instead of re-installing | 19:28 |
| Kristiina | blaz_: i had translated in google:) so it's safer the one command or the website? | 19:28 |
| Kristiina | Blaz_: what's PPA? | 19:28 |
| Kristiina | blaz_: where you're from? | 19:29 |
| trond- | trojan_spike, how do I do that... | 19:29 |
| blaz_ | Kristiina: one command is safer. PPA is an online repository for Ubuntu packages | 19:29 |
| trojan_spike | open package manager < | 19:29 |
| blaz_ | Kristiina: if PPA does not work it would be easier to go back to the old packages | 19:30 |
| hayward2010 | whenever I reload the package manager list, I get lots of HIT HIT and FAiled Failed.. messages... | 19:30 |
| hayward2010 | using Ubuntu 10 | 19:30 |

| Katsumi32 | eva if youre new to ubuntu i would advice you to use google.com and http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Main_Page before you start installing things better to know a bit than mess up thing and have to reinstall ubuntu or something. check up alsa web there is a lot of info about driver supported cards etc how to install drivers | 19:31 |

| stuckey | I'm trying to record video with a web cam I just got. Someone said use cheese, so I'm trying it, but it doesn't record sound. | 19:43 |

| === hebert is now known as hebertsilva | ||
| pfifo | Is there a linux app that dose the same function of flash media encoder? | 20:08 |
| trond- | Katsumi32, right, well, did that and it ends up using 2.6.32-24 as of now. I got an error message when it tried to use the 35-21-kernel. I'll see if I can fetch it. | 20:08 |
| younder | I am realy quite skilled at unix (used it since 1986), but I have still to see a satisfactory way to back up / on a single system. I still end up with a complete reinstall | 20:08 |
| pfifo | younder, dd works great | 20:08 |
| llutz | younder: rsync | 20:09 |
| younder | llutz, single | 20:09 |
| jrib | younder: exactly, use something that uses rsync (like rsnapshot!) | 20:09 |
| llutz | younder: rsync to different partition on same system | 20:09 |

| vincent_ | hi all, dpkg --configure -a fails because update-iniramfs tries to install a kernel I have now removed , I get following trace : http://pastebin.org/875280 | 20:10 |
| jrib | pfifo: isn't there some issue if he's using the disc? | 20:10 |
| detrix | Why is the 64bit version of ubuntu not recommended for daily desktop usage??? | 20:10 |
| vincent_ | how can I convince update-initramfs that this kernel is no longer installed ? | 20:10 |
| jrib | detrix: because that message is silly | 20:10 |
| llutz | detrix: no one knows, ignore it | 20:10 |
| detrix | lol | 20:10 |
| bobstro | younder: i've migrated / to another drive with minimal problems. | 20:10 |
| younder | pfifo, It is not backing it up with is the problem it is restoring it. While it is in use.. | 20:11 |
| trojan_spike | detrix, if u have below 4GB ram, use 62bit.. above , use 64 bit. | 20:11 |
| detrix | just checkin | 20:11 |
| bobstro | younder: using tar and updating grub (well, lilo at the time) | 20:11 |
| pfifo | jrib, yes, youll need todo that from a livecd, restoring with both methods will require a livecd as well (>implying the system works in the first place when you need to restore) | 20:11 |
| trojan_spike | 32bit.. | 20:11 |
| jrib | pfifo: partimage is a better choice then imho | 20:11 |
| rapage | hello I'm planning install ubuntu /home on a ext3 partition what is the disanvantage of not using ext4 for it? | 20:11 |
| detrix | Thanx | 20:11 |
| b0ot | llutz, it doesn't seem to work | 20:12 |
| pfifo | younder, jrib, I use that method to keep a snapshot of windows, works like a charm | 20:12 |
| jrib | pfifo: partimage is similar but it will be smarter about unused space | 20:12 |
| bobstro | younder: you mean zero downtime? | 20:12 |
| sebsebseb | rapage: Ext4 is good to use with Ubuntu since 9.10 and so should go with that really if on 9.10 or later | 20:12 |
| llutz | b0ot: given correct pathes? scripts are working from commandline? | 20:12 |
| rapage | how to convert to ext4 without loosing data? does anyone know | 20:13 |
| b0ot | llutz, yeah | 20:13 |
| wyverex | Question: I have LDAP working on 10.4, but when users login they have to keep clicking on other, anyway to make that the default? | 20:13 |
| sebsebseb | rapage: oh | 20:13 |
| sebsebseb | rapage: right ok uhmm | 20:13 |
| pfifo | jrib, my boot partition are always 4gb so gzip is plenty for my needs. if I ever make a 16gb partition ill look into it | 20:13 |
| sebsebseb | rapage: not much point bothering to convert to Ext4 from Ext3 really | 20:13 |
| llutz | b0ot: sure you added your scripts before "exit 0" line? | 20:13 |
| b0ot | yeah | 20:14 |
| llutz | b0ot: what shall the scripts do? | 20:14 |
| b0ot | llutz, they start cameras on my network, and then they stream them | 20:14 |
| maedox | b0ot, didn't I walk you through this already? :P | 20:15 |
| llutz | b0ot: use full pathes inside your scripts, rclocal is run with limited environment | 20:15 |
| b0ot | maedox, you did, i tried it with crontab I couldn't get it to work | 20:16 |
| b0ot | llutz, i have been using full paths | 20:16 |

| trond- | trojan_spike, ouh, what grub2 installed clean 10.04 on a clean system | 20:20 |
| trojan_spike | trond-, install grub2.. then reboot.. you'll deffo get the choices.. aslong as linux images are installed | 20:20 |
| trojan_spike | trond-, :: sudo apt-get install grub2 | 20:20 |
| b0ot | maedox, the scripts seem to work if i just copy/paste what i have into terminal | 20:20 |
| b0ot | i mean the /path/to/script/script.sh | 20:20 |
| trond- | trojan_spike, ok. trying that | 20:21 |
| b0ot | maedox, what is weird is that at least one of them worked, but it doesnt look like the other 4 did maedox | 20:21 |
| maedox | b0ot, ok, weird. | 20:21 |
| trojan_spike | or do it from package manager.. | 20:21 |
| bihari | i have a question is parallism allow in a singal processor ? | 20:21 |
| maedox | b0ot, if you do su and then run them, do they work? | 20:22 |
| trond- | trojan_spike, ok, trying that... brb. (used to apt-get, no problem there. I've been using ubuntu since.hm. way back) | 20:22 |
| Dulak | bihari: not usually no, procedural only afaik | 20:24 |
| b0ot | maedox, good call vlc won't run as root | 20:24 |
| iplaythisgame2 | got a problem. Had my server instalation die. Reinstalled and remounted a few data drives and a folder on one drive is corrupt. Seems only that one folder. I cant ls rm it or anything in it. Autocomplete wont even work on it. I can sacrifice the data in that one folder. So, how do I get rid of it? | 20:24 |
| jrib | iplaythisgame2: did you fsck? | 20:24 |
| b0ot | maedox, ok new problem... :) I need one script to run as root (which I have working) and the 4 other scripts to run as normal @ restart | 20:24 |
| bihari | Dulak, can you explain it | 20:25 |
| Dulak | iplaythisgame2: unmount it, run fsck on it and let it fix whatever is messed up | 20:25 |
| sam_sam | using ufw, i have denied incoming traffic on a port , still see it as open port .. how ? | 20:25 |
| maedox | b0ot, Alright, then you just change root to your username in /etc/crontab for those scripts. | 20:25 |
| iplaythisgame2 | jrib; I though it ran on that drive on the first boot thanks I'll try it. | 20:25 |
| maedox | sam_sam, how do you see it as open? | 20:25 |
| b0ot | maedox, thanks! | 20:25 |
| sam_sam | i nmapd myself | 20:26 |
| maedox | sam_sam, no wonder then. :) | 20:26 |
| bihari | Dulak, can you explain it ? why it is not possible ? | 20:26 |
| Dulak | bihari: to run something parallel implies multiple processors, which as far as I know doesn't exist in a signal processor, so they handle things in order, not in parallel | 20:26 |
| maedox | sam_sam, try nmap from another computer if possible | 20:26 |

| GrizzLyCRO1 | and i just ade one ntfs partition for wubi before trying to install | 20:44 |
| The_Paco | Am I on the right track? | 20:44 |
| RockerBoy402 | frobe: Chromium = Google Chrome. Though I believe you have to compile it yourself unless they now have a linux installer. | 20:44 |
| trojan_spike | wubi works inside a windows folder,, not a partition. | 20:44 |
| geoffmcc | GTroy: the only thing i would posibly think to do is connect monitor and crash xserv and see if it will show term on mon | 20:44 |
| trond- | The_Paco, cat file | grep http | 20:44 |
| frobe | oh ok just curious | 20:44 |
| GrizzLyCRO1 | i know that | 20:44 |
| cardamon | I get a lot of mass emails from my university, and since they occasionally include things like weather warnings, I still need to get them.

| GrizzLyCRO1 | no, 64 bitwin and 64 bit ubuntu | 20:45 |

| geoffmcc | starts? | 20:45 |

| geoffmcc | GTroy: sorry i am out of ideas | 20:46 |

| trojan_spike | UAC off? | 20:48 |
| GTroy | but I'm not betting on it | 20:48 |
| GrizzLyCRO1 | i see wubi.exe gets in task manager under win, but it closes | 20:48 |
| The_Paco | I'm just pulling all the URLs out of it to try to import them into Rhythmbox.... which hopefully I won't have to do by hand. Baby-steps, though | 20:48 |
| GrizzLyCRO1 | no its not off, but i press yes on propmpt | 20:48 |
| GrizzLyCRO1 | will try with uac off | 20:48 |
| trojan_spike | turn it off,, | 20:48 |
| MasterofPuppets | Hey guys, I can't connect to my wireless internet with Karmic. I know it's not the drivers, and it was connected a few minutes ago. Ideas? | 20:48 |
| GrizzLyCRO1 | GTroy: you shopuld have buttons to disable or enable multi screen | 20:49 |
| GTroy | ok, thanks GrizzLyCRO1 and geoffmcc | 20:49 |
| GrizzLyCRO1 | somewhere near mute button | 20:49 |
| frobe | I'm running 9.04 on my old laptop and it has been updating like grazy over the last few weeks average about 1 per week its crazy all these new updates all the time I was wondering whats up with that.? | 20:49 |
| trond- | MasterofPuppets, have you checked that the router is online? (just trying to check the obvious first) | 20:49 |
| MasterofPuppets | Well, given that my desktop is wireless and I'm talking to you, I think so ^_^ | 20:49 |
| GTroy | GrizzLyCRO1: thanks I've always done it inside the original screen | 20:49 |
| MasterofPuppets | trond-: I reset it to be sure earlier, no help though. | 20:49 |
| GTroy | never used buttons for it | 20:49 |
| trojan_spike | MasterofPuppets, did u just do an upgrade?? if so go to package manager and 'fix broken packages'.. | 20:50 |
| GrizzLyCRO1 | you should have buttons for it | 20:50 |
| GTroy | got it, thanks | 20:50 |
| GrizzLyCRO1 | for example i used function plus 4 or 5 | 20:50 |
| GTroy | that solves a lot of problems | 20:50 |
| GrizzLyCRO1 | it works? | 20:50 |
| nobarking | does anyone know what sites "youtube-dl" supports? | 20:50 |
| GTroy | no, this laptop is at another location | 20:50 |
| GrizzLyCRO1 | ahh :D | 20:50 |
| blaz_ | The_Paco: should be doable with sed, can you show small part of the file? | 20:50 |
| GrizzLyCRO1 | well, gota restart | 20:50 |
| GrizzLyCRO1 | see ya | 20:50 |
| GTroy | but a button control should help | 20:50 |
| GTroy | thanks GrizzLyCRO1 | 20:51 |
| The_Paco | few mins | 20:51 |

| dreamy_ | does reinstalling samba on synaptics, resets my CFG Settings ? anyone? | 20:51 |
| MasterofPuppets | Trond-, trojan-spike: To be clear, I can see the network, I just hang on joining and disconnect before the process completes. | 20:51 |
| VCoolio | nobarking: http://bitbucket.org/rg3/youtube-dl/wiki/Home | 20:52 |
| trism | The_Paco: how about: grep -o "http://[^ ]*" file.txt; assuming all urls start with http:// and have a space between them and the next word | 20:52 |
| nobarking | VCoolio: thanks | 20:52 |
| zephraph | Hey uh, can someone help me with a lucid problem I'm having on my hp touchsmart tx2? When I "click" with the stylus, the cursor freezes and won't move until I move it out of range of the screen... I've seen this error in some old Jaunty stuff, but I thought it was fixed for lucid. Suggestions? | 20:52 |
| trond- | MasterofPuppets, check if the password-window is hidden or not. Not seen that before. | 20:52 |
| trond- | (seen a lot in my years of using linux though) | 20:53 |
| MasterofPuppets | trond-: What do you mean? If it's asking for the passphrase but I'm not inputting it? | 20:53 |
| The_Paco | if I paste this hunk of DB I'll probably get kicked for spamming | 20:54 |
| trond- | MasterofPuppets, Yes, that's what I'm saying, could be a) that it asks for your login-password, or it could be that it asks for the wifi-keys | 20:54 |
| The_Paco | trism, I'll try that one, thanks | 20:54 |
| GrizzLyCRO | trojan_spike: uac off didnt help.. | 20:54 |
| GrizzLyCRO | i run and it closes before giving me ay gui | 20:54 |
| MasterofPuppets | trond-: The password is set to auto-fill, and it isn't asking for my password. | 20:55 |
| pat|nG | erUSUL: dude...it's working...remember i've asked u about the wireless thing on my vbox? it's working thanx dude....but i dunno on how to config my aircrack on this one....that's my problem now...geez btw thanx again! | 20:55 |
| GrizzLyCRO | tried compat modes, no help | 20:55 |
| trojan_spike | ok,, it seemed like a broken wubi | 20:55 |
| GrizzLyCRO | well, i read that it can happen if i do something with partitions from win | 20:55 |
| GrizzLyCRO | but i dont know how that would be relevant | 20:55 |
| sdwinder | hi all | 20:55 |
| trond- | MasterofPuppets, ok. hm. you could try and "remove" the connection, and then try and set the values again. what does iwconfig give you? | 20:55 |
| GrizzLyCRO | i have tried 4 different wubi.exe | 20:56 |
| sdwinder | anyone here have any exerience dealing with clonezilla imaging on a ubuntu based ststem? | 20:56 |
| GrizzLyCRO | and mint4exe of latest mind livecd | 20:56 |
| trojan_spike | MasterofPuppets, its showing your wifi sender? | 20:56 |
| GrizzLyCRO | any other ideaas? | 20:56 |
| MasterofPuppets | trond- Iwconfig shows it as connecting when it's connecting, idle when it isn't. So far, everything should be working | 20:57 |
| MasterofPuppets | trojan_spike: Yes | 20:57 |
| trojan_spike | GrizzLyCRO, you have no usb or disk drives? | 20:57 |
| GrizzLyCRO | i have usb, but its too small | 20:57 |
| GrizzLyCRO | i have once managed to install ubuntu from hd | 20:57 |
| trojan_spike | so not drivers .. best trying what trond- said.. reset passphrase etc.. | 20:58 |
| GrizzLyCRO | but cant do that as i have both hard drives full | 20:58 |
| trojan_spike | what size is the usb? | 20:58 |
| GrizzLyCRO | 256 :D | 20:58 |
| geoffmcc | GrizzlyCRO: im kinda jumoin in middle without seeing whole convo - but isnt there a network install cd too | 20:58 |
| trojan_spike | ouch | 20:58 |
| GrizzLyCRO | i dont have and disk drives | 20:59 |
| GrizzLyCRO | so no cd will help me | 20:59 |
| trojan_spike | get a tiny o.s that can install from usb,, then upgrades to 10.04?? | 20:59 |
| soroush | I can't have access to internet through my UBUNTU 10.04 because ubuntu doesn't recognise my wireless(minicard 1397). I did lspci(http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/mt3a3qh7) and lspci -vvv (http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/eCsmvEXa). what should I do now? | 21:00 |
| GrizzLyCRO | uh sry, closed all processes that i could | 21:00 |
| MarkSS | I ran Unhide Brute and it keeps coming back with Segmentation fault. What is that and should I be worried? | 21:00 |
| The_Paco | trism, your grep options mostly worked. I'll have to look at it closer to see why. What's that free book that you guys tout in here, and does it give good in-depth command help/examples? | 21:00 |
| GrizzLyCRO | trojan_spike: i dont know if thats worth effort | 21:00 |
| goliat | Hey people. Im running Ubunto on a laptop and im locking for a way to add folders as shorcuts, like Music, Pictures, Photos e.t.c.? | 21:00 |

| GrizzLyCRO | but i dont know what could i install from 256 mb usb | 21:01 |
| MasterofPuppets | trond-, trojan_spike: Thanks though | 21:01 |
| GrizzLyCRO | eh | 21:01 |

| GrizzLyCRO | yeah | 21:02 |
| geoffmcc | GrizzLyCRO: a real ubuntu enthusiast would drive that distance, lol... kidding | 21:02 |
| GrizzLyCRO | i saw some usb disk creator on 10.10 cd | 21:02 |
| GrizzLyCRO | should i use that | 21:02 |
| GrizzLyCRO | or config it manually with 10.4 | 21:03 |
| GrizzLyCRO | i would prefer using stable 10.4 | 21:03 |
| trojan_spike | 10.10 is pretty stable.. | 21:03 |
| GrizzLyCRO | ok, so i am safe using that usb creator | 21:03 |
| trojan_spike | yea,, | 21:03 |
| trism | The_Paco: not sure what book you mean, someone else here may have a suggestion for you, but about the grep, it is basically saying to match strings starting with http:// followed by 0 or more characters that aren't spaces, and the -o tells grep to only print the matches not the full line | 21:04 |
| trojan_spike | windows has a good disk creator | 21:04 |

| [FKU]Greycloak | .tar.gz is an archive | 21:23 |
| ikonia | oneneedshelp: if you are at a basic level, using a development version of ubuntu is not a good idea | 21:23 |

| brett\ | JohnnyL_, youre doing bleeding edge work to really require the newest version of that compiler? i find it funny youre asking that here at all... | 21:29 |

| GrizzLyCRO | trojan_spike: why? | 21:32 |
| trojan_spike | because it has to boot on boot up,, | 21:32 |
| GrizzLyCRO | i tried choosing .iso file with usb creator exe but it just ignores my selection | 21:32 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | put the iso in the same folder as the usb creator | 21:33 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | it should find it automatically | 21:33 |
| GrizzLyCRO | oh no, as usb was in creation process thats when it crashed | 21:33 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | *sigh* i guess i'm stuck with this boot issue | 21:33 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | everytime i start the computer it'll just take 2 boots to work | 21:34 |
| GrizzLyCRO | i will try to make usb manually | 21:34 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | wait grizzly | 21:35 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | you mounted the iso? | 21:35 |
| GrizzLyCRO | yeah | 21:35 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | you don't need to do that with the usb creator | 21:35 |
| GrizzLyCRO | in windows | 21:35 |
| GrizzLyCRO | i do | 21:35 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | just put the iso in the same folder as the usb creator | 21:35 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | then select the distro from the drop down | 21:35 |
| GrizzLyCRO | oh.. :) | 21:35 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | I made mine like that | 21:35 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | no mount required | 21:35 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | added a 1gb casper as well | 21:35 |

| [FKU]Greycloak | 1.9.5 or some such | 21:37 |
| ikonia | oneneedshelp: utorrent is in the repos | 21:37 |
| GrizzLyCRO | yeah dled 10.10 2 days ago | 21:37 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | once you select the flash drive it should have a check mark for "format drive" | 21:37 |
| ikonia | oneneedshelp: you don't need to compile it, just open the package manager, search for utorrent and click install | 21:37 |

| trojan_spike | GrizzLyCRO, get a smaller O.S then.. u can upgrade from there | 21:41 |
| Ichat | ikonia: - some time ago (jingle only though) | 21:41 |

| oneneedshelp | the version on the main page http://www.ubuntu.com/ | 21:43 |
| jrib | oneneedshelp: anyway, you have 10.04 installed now so you downloaded 10.04 | 21:43 |
| Ichat | oneneedshelp: - just gave you the link | 21:43 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | JeffryvdM: probably a video driver issue | 21:43 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | you could force it to load up with VESA to at least get access to the system | 21:43 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | then update the video drivers | 21:43 |
| JeffryvdM | yeah i thought so but it happend too when i didnt install the ati driver | 21:43 |
| trojan_spike | JeffryvdM, does it show any kernels? | 21:44 |
| oneneedshelp | yes right.....is there an installer application that can help me ? | 21:44 |
| JeffryvdM | nope just a cursor | 21:44 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | i had a similar problem | 21:44 |
| kromium | Hi | 21:44 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | does it give you any options second time booting it? | 21:44 |
| kromium | did anyone try installing ubuntu on Thinkpad X201 ? | 21:44 |
| JeffryvdM | no | 21:44 |
| GrizzLyCRO | ok its extracting files to usb now | 21:44 |
| jrib | oneneedshelp: I'd recommend you try some of the native linux torrent clienst. Like transmission for example | 21:44 |
| Ichat | oneneedshelp: - download from the download page and read the install howto | 21:44 |

| ikonia | planet8: I'm asking why you want it | 21:46 |
| ikonia | I'm happy to share if I understand the reason | 21:46 |

| eshannon | hello everyone. I am having a problem with video play back. I have a blue tint and have not been able to get rid of it on this one box. I on Ubuntu 10.4 with nvidia drivers | 21:48 |
| GrizzLyCRO | eshannon: tried vlc? | 21:48 |
| JeffryvdM | but ill try to update the kernel after i reinstalled it | 21:48 |
| jrib | planet8: your question is kind of strange. All you do is put "reiserfs" as the filesystem in fstab | 21:48 |
| PreZ | I installed ubuntu on a new hdd, and I have the old hdd attached still. How do I mount my encrypted home dir from the old hdd to copy the data to the new hdd | 21:49 |
| Paddy_NI | GrizzLyCRO, that is not really a solution | 21:49 |
| eshannon | Yes I am using VLC | 21:49 |
| PreZ | preferably without having to boot the old hdd first to do the copy and such | 21:49 |
| trojan_spike | kk,, post on the forum about it.. | 21:49 |
| planet8 | ikonia, you are not | 21:49 |
| Paddy_NI | eshannon, What do you mean blue tint.. could you perhaps make a screenshot | 21:49 |
| JeffryvdM | thanks for your help everyone ill come back if it doesnt work | 21:49 |
| planet8 | jrip, thanks, but there is something like notail right? | 21:49 |
| GrizzLyCRO | eshannon: like grayscale, only its in blue tones? | 21:49 |
| jrib | planet8: I don't know, is that your real question? | 21:49 |
| ikonia | planet8: I am, as if I know what th eproblem is or why you want it, I can help properly. eg: if you need an option, I need to know you're not going to blindly copy and paste mine and make your system not boot | 21:49 |
| pptf | fkkkk. this chat room has over 900 users!! | 21:49 |
| GrizzLyCRO | or single blue color? | 21:50 |
| eshannon | GrizzLyCRO yes and I can make a screen shot | 21:50 |
| planet8 | ikonia, I'll know what to do with it, just copy paste it please | 21:50 |
| JeffryvdM | wtf after i insert the cd it just booted from the hd | 21:50 |
| GrizzLyCRO | what yes, blue scale or single color? | 21:50 |
| ikonia | planet8: no, | 21:50 |
| aconrad | hi there, how can I make my external monitor on my laptop to be the primary one (I want the menu bar and clock on the external monitor) | 21:50 |

| eshannon | Paddy_NI where should I upload screen shot to | 21:51 |
| Ichat | JeffryvdM: - sounds like a grub error than? | 21:51 |
| jrib | planet8: notail is an option that you can enable, or not. It's an option. The options are described in « man mount ». If you need help understanding something specific, ask that question | 21:51 |
| GrizzLyCRO | eshannon: pasteall.org | 21:51 |
| JeffryvdM | i guess so | 21:51 |
| planet8 | ikonia, there is no problem, I just need to know, what the default line is in fstab on ubuntu | 21:51 |
| Ichat | ./ignore | 21:52 |
| ikonia | planet8: default ? that depends on your install, however the default does not come with notail if that's what your asking | 21:52 |
| taget | Hi everybody :) | 21:52 |
| planet8 | ikonia, never mind.. ill just run some test installations | 21:52 |
| ikonia | ok | 21:52 |

| Sentynel | I have a very old damaged tarball (a backup of someone's home directory circa 2000) we're trying to recover a file from. The backup is tar.gz; de-gzips fine, but throws errors de-tarring. cpio will detar most of it, though there are errors. Text files and some binary files in the cpio'd result are legible. We're trying to get a text file out of a gzipped file. With gzip -d < filein > fileout, the first few lines of the file are legible, but then | 21:59 |
| Sentynel | it becomes jumbled. Anyone able to help? | 21:59 |
| gabeodess | jrib: I really need to know the latter, but I am also curious about the former | 21:59 |
| gabeodess | jrib: yes. I need to know how to find what is using all the space. | 22:00 |
| gabeodess | jrib: I thought that "du" would tell me that... | 22:00 |
| sreeraj_c | pls help me , my PIDGIN crashes when i make audio call | 22:00 |
| jrib | gabeodess: regarding the former, there is reserved space for root (you can change how much with tune2fs). For the latter, yes du should tell you that, strange that it reports 1.8G for / | 22:01 |

| aliverius_ | how can i download a source package? | 22:02 |
| dajhorn | Sentynel: You're probably screwed. The commentary in the gzip source code describes how to reset the decompression dictionary, but actually doing it is deep voodoo. | 22:02 |
| ikonia | aliverius_: what do you want to install ? | 22:02 |
| janisozaur | aliverius, apt-get source package | 22:02 |
| aliverius_ | thanks janisozaur | 22:02 |
| janisozaur | aliverius, it will download, extract and patch source into your cwd | 22:02 |
| gabeodess | ikonia: do you know why "du /" might say 1.8G when "df -h" says that /dev/sda1 is using 18G ? | 22:03 |
| dajhorn | Sentynel: You can also try `gtar` or `star` with the various compatibility options. eg: GNU vice old Sun style. | 22:03 |
| JohnnyL_ | brett\: what is your point? | 22:03 |
| Sentynel | dajhorn: Heh, we feared as much. One of us noticed fewer \r characters than expected in the .gz file, and discovered that adding a pair of \r characters where the corruption starts made things a little better, but hasn't been able to get any futher. | 22:03 |
| ikonia | gabeodess: can you pastebin the output of both please | 22:03 |
| ikonia | gabeodess: (just the last few lines of du -h / will do ) | 22:04 |
| gabeodess | ikonia: http://pastie.org/1161510 | 22:04 |
| aliverius_ | ikonia: vlc cli only for a server | 22:04 |
| aliverius_ | are you ikonia from lfs? | 22:04 |
| dajhorn | Sentynel: Force the file through dos2unix and/or unix2dos. You might get lucky. | 22:04 |
| ikonia | aliverius_: yes | 22:04 |
| aliverius_ | ikonia: :)) | 22:04 |
| janisozaur | gabeodess, there might be sparse files? but i think that du should report more than df in such cases | 22:04 |
| Edgan | gabeodess: try du -hs / | 22:04 |
| aliverius_ | there was a time we were chatting in there | 22:04 |

| helpneeded | this is what i assigned to it on the network | 22:15 |
| gabeodess | Edgan: thanks | 22:15 |
| helpneeded | i fixed the same IP on the connection in the PC when I was using Windows | 22:15 |

| helpneeded | but no connection is passing thru | 22:16 |
| helpneeded | when I remove the IP then it works | 22:16 |
| helpneeded | now it is working thru the assigned IP by DHCP | 22:17 |
| helpneeded | which should be the one I assigned on the network....but I wanted to fix it on the PC to make sure it is happening | 22:18 |
| [FKU]Greycloak | helpneeded: perhaps the router still has a DHCP reservation for that ip? | 22:18 |

| Dulak | helpneeded: 'ifconfig' or 'ip link' | 22:21 |
| frobisher | To find IP address just googl IP. | 22:21 |

| muppetbaby | can anybody help me | 23:07 |
| EvilPhoenix | !repeat | dakota_ | 23:07 |
| ubottu | dakota_: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://ubuntu.stackexchange.com | 23:07 |
| EvilPhoenix | anyways, is there any way to use rsync to sync an entire folder and its directory structure while specifying something that is NOT to be downloaded? | 23:08 |
| jkazana | !ask | muppetbaby | 23:08 |
| ubottu | muppetbaby: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 23:08 |

| mistergibson | Is there a minimal CD image (less than 650MB) ? | 23:08 |

| muppetbaby | how do you play windows games on ubun | 23:08 |
| dakota_ | with wine | 23:09 |
| muppetbaby | whats wine | 23:09 |
| jkazana | muppetbaby: maybe try wine -- sorry didn't see ur fist question | 23:09 |
| dakota_ | muppetbaby you install wine and then you can run some windows apps through wine, or you may want to try a virtual machine and install windows inside Ubuntu to play your games. | 23:10 |
| renedox | muppetbaby: before installing wine, check to see if your game is supported by them | 23:10 |
| pedahzur | Googling and reading docs seems to indicate to the negative, but it is possible, with LVM2, to take atomic snapshots of multiple LVs? | 23:10 |
| muppetbaby | i can get the file to come up but i don't know why it won't let me play disk games or music cds | 23:10 |
| renedox | muppetbaby: appdb.winehq.com you'd want either gold or platinum for minimum hassle | 23:10 |

| NoTownKasper | Hopefully this will be a fairly simple question to answer, but can someone point me in the direction of a PS1 Emulator that actually works with 10.04 without having to use jaunty's libraries and force things? | 23:12 |
| renedox | er | 23:12 |
| dakota_ | in the software center.. | 23:12 |
| renedox | winehq.org | 23:12 |
| versuchsanstalt | does a successful fdisk run on a partition prove that the partition table is ok? | 23:12 |
| NoTownKasper | PSX fails with anything but the default video plugin...and the default video plugin is beyond nasty. | 23:12 |

| Kulik1 | Hi, I am installing kubuntu 10.04 and the installer took forever to start, so I pressed ESC and console appears saying unable to open /dev/sda, unable to open /dev/sdb, unable to open /dev/mapper/isw_somethingsomething_Volume0. Volume0 is my intel matrix fakeraid | 23:19 |
| Kulik1 | I thought ubuntu 10.04 was already fine with fake raids, it's in the release notes, any tips? | 23:19 |
| === Lummoxx is now known as Lummy | ||
| versuchsanstalt | thune3: thank you for pointing it out. do you have an idea how to test everything involved, i am guessing: partition table and every fs? fs would be fsck, but fdisk shouldnt get me very far with testing, i think... | 23:20 |
| thune3 | versuchsanstalt: fsck (if repairing) can actually make destruction permanent, in cases of mismatching parition table information. A way to do a basic check is to mount read only. | 23:23 |
| versuchsanstalt | thune3: thank you for reminding me, great. | 23:24 |

| dotnetted | hey all - anyone know how to add a transponder settings file (like the ones in /usr/share/dvb/dvb-s/) so a satellite can be added to the usable list for dvb-utils? | 23:27 |
| pedahzur | pfifo: System related information. | 23:27 |
| pfifo | pedahzur, like what? (I just wrote my first kernel module and its talking about /sys) | 23:27 |
| pedahzur | pfifo: Various parts of the kernel publish information about themselves in there. E.g.: 'cat /sys/fs/ecryptfs/version' on my system gives "375" | 23:29 |
| pfifo | pedahzur, whats the difference between /proc and /sys | 23:30 |
| Dug_ | Anyone know how i can Update Java for my Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit please ? i got it installed and working but visit the java website and it says "Java Update Available" and thats all, i cant update my java for some reason anyone please ? | 23:31 |
| pedahzur | pfifo: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/proc-vs-sys-332635/ | 23:31 |
| faction918_ | Dug_: I actaully was looking into it because I thought you meant for a fresh install, then the power went out... FAIL! | 23:31 |
| Dug_ | ? | 23:32 |
| faction918_ | but, Dug_, I don't think I know how to update java on ubuntu... I have never run across this! | 23:32 |
| Dug_ | ahh ok :/ | 23:33 |
| Dug_ | i just cant find or see any update function | 23:33 |
| Dug_ | and java site keeps telling me there is an update available but doesnt give me an option how to update or tell me how | 23:33 |

| ivanrad | hey all | 23:33 |
| Dug_ | and i run the update manager in ubuntu and nothing :/ | 23:33 |
| cc12 | hey | 23:33 |
| faction918_ | Dug_: is it Java telling you there is an update or Ubuntu? | 23:33 |
| ivanrad | i recently formatted my SSD to ext4 | 23:33 |
| cc12 | hey ivanrad | 23:33 |
| ivanrad | and now my windows wont read it | 23:33 |
| Dug_ | its the java website telling me there is an update | 23:33 |
| pedahzur | pfifo: Yeah, pretty much...sorry I can't be more helpful. | 23:33 |
| ivanrad | can u guys help me format it to Fat | 23:33 |
| obi_ | hi all, having a problem booting ubuntu since this morning. "phy0 rt2x00lib_probe_dev: error failed to initialize hw" is all i get on boot. does anyone have any ideas?? thanks. | 23:34 |
| pedahzur | ivanrad: Do you want to save the data on it? | 23:34 |
| faction918_ | ah. | 23:34 |
| ivanrad | no | 23:34 |
| ivanrad | not at all | 23:34 |
| zylogz80 | has anyone successfully used 10.04 on a Dell Studio 15z? I'm having a couple problems, the most serious being I cannot wake it from sleep. | 23:34 |

| acovrig | why does `nc -l 3333|emacs -batch -l dunnet>test.sock` only take 1 command then die? | 23:34 |
| pfifo | pedahzur, well i know /proc really well so I get what /s/ 'should' be for | 23:34 |
| ivanrad | im on windows | 23:34 |

| ivanrad | im on windows | 23:34 |
| pfifo | s/\/s\//sys/ | 23:34 |
| ivanrad | i want to do it from windows | 23:34 |
| EvilPhoenix | ivanrad, try asking in ##windows | 23:35 |
| ivanrad | umm | 23:35 |
| pedahzur | ivanrad: You should be able to right-click on it from the Explorer, and click "Format." | 23:35 |
| Dug_ | apparently the latest version is "java is 1.6.0_21" and im on 1.6.0.20 | 23:35 |
| ivanrad | its not showing up there | 23:35 |
| EvilPhoenix | ivanrad, /join ##windows | 23:35 |
| faction918_ | Dug_: my only suggestion would be to install the lastest version from http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp | 23:35 |

| faction918_ | but java has always been finiky for me, it finally just works in 10.04 | 23:36 |
| obi_ | bump | 23:36 |
| pfifo | ivanrad, microsoft dosent support fat anymore | 23:36 |
| faction918_ | sorry I can't really help more... | 23:36 |
| LjL | pfifo: uh? | 23:36 |
| Dug_ | hmm this is gonna be a noob question cus im still kinda new to linux and learning but which linux one do i need to download and install they all say they are for redhat and suse | 23:36 |
| LjL | pfifo: i thought there even was 64-bit FAT, ExFat or something... | 23:36 |
| ivanrad | in netbook remix can i format the drive without doing all that sudo shit | 23:37 |
| Dug_ | im guessing i would need the "Linux x64" since im 64-bit does it matter it says it sofr redhat and suse ? | 23:37 |
| iceroot | Dug_: download what exactly? | 23:37 |
| IdleOne | !language | ivanrad | 23:37 |
| ubottu | ivanrad: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 23:37 |
| Dug_ | Java | 23:37 |
| ivanrad | ok | 23:37 |
| LjL | Dug_: how's about you ignore that update request and just stay with the repository-provided version? | 23:37 |
| renedox | Dug_: look for a .deb file | 23:37 |
| iceroot | !java | Dug_ | 23:37 |
| ivanrad | but will it be easy' | 23:37 |
| ubottu | Dug_: To install a Java runtime on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java. For the Sun Java products and browser plugin, search for the sun-java6- packages in the !partner repository on Lucid (which must be enabled), or !multiverse repository on older releases. | 23:37 |
| sjefen6 | are there an ubuntu 10.04 equvalent to "echo uinput >> /etc/modules"? | 23:37 |
| iceroot | Dug_: java is in the repos | 23:37 |
| trojan_spike | Dug_. u want .DEB packages.. | 23:37 |
| Dug_ | becuase the repository version apparently has an update :s | 23:37 |
| renedox | Dug_: but you might be better of using the built in apt from ubuntu | 23:37 |
| obi_ | anybody know if i can boot again without loosing all my info? | 23:37 |
| ivanrad | ? | 23:38 |
| thune3 | Dug_: if you have it installed through partner repository, just wait until ubuntu updates it, point releases are minor and should make very little difference. | 23:38 |
| LjL | Dug_: yeah but who cares, is my opinion - i'd keep it unupdated and wait for an ubuntu update :P | 23:38 |
| EvilPhoenix | !gparted | ivanrad, gparted is an easier-to-use partitioner program for ubuntu's things | 23:38 |
| ubottu | ivanrad, gparted is an easier-to-use partitioner program for ubuntu's things: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 23:38 |
| Dug_ | lol | 23:38 |
| Dug_ | hmm so this update will reach my ubuntu update list soon ? | 23:38 |

| obi_ | cant boot ubuntu... can anyone help? | 23:39 |

| redvil | anyone here know how to configure conky so that it will run after login? | 23:39 |
| pfifo | does linux-2.6.32-24-generic support forced module unloading? | 23:39 |
| LjL | Dug_: well i can't promise it will be "soon", i don't really know, but even if it isn't, eh. waiting a while pays off (unless perhaps it's some important security update, which i doubt) compared to the chores of installing something not from the repos over something that is. | 23:39 |
| Dug_ | well apparently the updated version to mine is java is 1.6.0_21 | 23:39 |
| goddard | redvil tons of tutorials for that man | 23:39 |

| aperson | where is the ideal location to manually install flash to? | 23:50 |
| digitalfiz | i see lots of pages saying do this and that and it should work but no matter what i only get read access | 23:51 |
| Jordan_U | digitalfiz: Not possible unfortunately. You need to disable journaling for write support. | 23:51 |
| thune3 | obi_: your ralink driver has worked OK before through reboots? | 23:51 |
| digitalfiz | Jordan_U, the partition has stuff i dont want to lose will that mess it up? | 23:51 |
| renedox | obi_: just did a quick google, looks like you have to upgrade your kernel | 23:51 |
| majorscurvy | AGreyCrane, sorryyyy. I was able to make it work with nvidia. you have the button on your keyboard (usually Fn + F4) that is used to refresh the monitors? | 23:51 |
| cc12 | has anyone tried 10.0 beta?? | 23:51 |
| digitalfiz | Jordan_U, i dont mind doing that if i can undo it later. i just need to copy 1 file over to fix a boot error | 23:52 |
| Jordan_U | digitalfiz: No, though it will make the filesystem less robust to power failures and the like. | 23:52 |
| Jordan_U | digitalfiz: You can undo it later. | 23:52 |
