[00:00] <LinuxGuy2009> Gnea: So I did install apache, did no configuration, but in order for this to work I just have to make sure apache is installed first?
[00:00] <ben_> Gnea: I'm not sure what you mean, I go into tty1 and then hit ctrl-c, that just cancels any script, but nothing's running so it just give me a new command line.
[00:00] <PirateUnderwear> r007: based off crux
[00:00] <r007> depends on your definition of Linux then
[00:00] <PirateUnderwear> r007: it uses the linux kernel, so it's linux
[00:00] <Gnea> LinuxGuy2009: pretty much
[00:00] <r007> more unix if you ask me which isnt a bad thing or a good thing
[00:00] <LinuxGuy2009> Gnea: Your awesome!
[00:00] <ben_> Gnea: after I stopped gdm, I couldn't get back to my gui desktop, so I restarted to get back to IRC
[00:00] <ZykoticK9> malel_draconis, a basic conversion would be "mplayer -ao pcm $file" to make a wav then use lame to encode the wav to mp3 (one method anyways)
[00:01] <Gnea> ben_: you don't need the gui to get on irc. apt-get install irssi and irc from the console.. heck, install and use screen
[00:02] <ben_> Gnea: oh, oops. okay, let me get that working so I can talk and work on this at the same time
[00:02] <malel_draconis> ZykoticK9, thank, I'll try that, can you give me an example command? still getting used to command line work..
[00:02] <Gnea> ben_: ok
[00:02] <ZykoticK9> malel_draconis, where there is $file put your actual file name
[00:03] <malel_draconis> ZykoticK9, k, thanks
[00:03] <serit> rallias: duplicate songs?
[00:03] <rallias> Yeah, I will never understand him...
[00:03] <Squarism> anyone having luck playing local files with spotify on ubuntu?
[00:03] <ZykoticK9> malel_draconis, a lame one would be "lame -h -b 128 $FILE.WAV" i think
[00:03] <malel_draconis> Also, does anyone know of an audio-editing program similar to FrootyLoops, Open-Source, of course
[00:04] <h00k> malel_draconis: I don't know what FrootyLoops does, but Audacity is a powerful audio editor
[00:04] <rallias> serit: the man didn't always remember which cd's were uploaded allready, and his naming scheme is just a bunch of numbers.
[00:04] <ben____> exit
[00:05] <ePirat> hello
[00:05] <r007> got an ubuntu server question although maybe vbox related but when I shut the server down using shutdown now it shuts down but dumps me to single user and IK have to do an init 0 any ideas?
[00:05] <r007> its running in vbox btw
[00:05] <ZykoticK9> h00k, i'm under the impression that FrootyLoops is a music creation thing more then an audio editor like audacity.  malel_draconis
[00:05] <h00k> ZykoticK9: Gotcha
[00:05] <ePirat> i isntalled ubuntu 10.10 beta, now i cant login because i have no image... i only see white screen with some messed up objects
[00:05] <ZykoticK9> ePirat, #ubuntu+1
[00:06] <ePirat> what?
[00:06] <malel_draconis> well, here's what I'm doing..  I have a bunch of songs that I'm wanting to mash together and make techno remixes of...
[00:06] <ZykoticK9> ePirat, reask the same question in #ubuntu+1
[00:06] <h00k> ePirat: /join #ubuntu+1 for Maverick Support
[00:06] <Gnea> ePirat: we don't do 10.10 here, but #ubuntu+1 does
[00:06] <ePirat> ok
[00:06] <serit> rallias: ok sorry   but If each song  has a certain size mayby sort by that
[00:07] <malel_draconis> so, any programs that might help with that and be pretty straight-forward to use
[00:07] <benjamintheyon> I'm looking at printer installation instructions and I have the option of "LPR driver" or "cupswrapper driver"...seems like cupswrapper is the way to go, yes?
[00:08] <ymasory> sorry if this is a double post, the floodbot confuses me.
[00:08] <ben____> Gnea: okay, so I'm in tty1, dumb question, how do I get back to my command line without actually quitting irssi?
[00:08] <ymasory> hi all, i'm trying to figure out why ubuntu sometimes decides to ignore my power settings and not turn off the monitors. are
[00:08] <Gnea> ben____: just use tty2 (alt-f2) and switch back and forth
[00:08] <ymasory> *are there common apps that inhibit the idle period from reaching 30 minutes?
[00:08] <r007> cups common unix printing system yeah thats the one
[00:08] <ben____> Gnea:okay, so now I should stop gdm and try to create the X.log?
[00:09] <Gnea> ben____: yes
[00:09] <Gnea> ben____: I also suggest insalling pastebinit
[00:09] <serit> rallias: and that will show any multiples
[00:09] <Gnea> ben____: *installing
[00:09] <rallias> serit: what will?
[00:11] <r007> ben_ /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[00:11] <serit> rallias: what will???
[00:11] <Gnea> r007: he knows
[00:11] <r007> Gnea lol should have seen the quit
[00:11] <rallias> serit: oh sorry didn't see that... umm... they are all kinda similar sizes
[00:12] <jags> is there a quick way to create a file other than envoking a program like gedit in terminal and saving it?
[00:12] <Gnea> r007: and the join :)
[00:12] <Gnea> jags: touch file
[00:12] <jags> ahh I thought you used touch just to change some meta info on the file like last time accessed
[00:12] <jags> cool
[00:13] <r007> jags touch creates
[00:13] <Gnea> it can do that too
[00:13] <serit> rallias: the sort will show names that are similar
[00:13] <serit> rallias: then you can delete them
[00:14] <ryaxnbuntu> touch was not on dos
[00:14] <Gnea> uh
[00:14] <r007> he stopped gdm again?
[00:14] <Gnea> something happened lol
[00:14] <r007> dos is shit
[00:14] <serit> rallias: its a very slow process but get rid of any doubles
[00:14] <Gnea> who cares about dos?
[00:14] <h00k> !language | r007
[00:14] <r007> sorry hook
[00:14] <rallias> he used a date based scheme (first 8 bytes of md5 hash of current unix time, +1 if result is duplicated)
[00:15] <r007> its true though
[00:15] <ryaxnbuntu> doos is nicve
[00:16] <r007> whats doos disk operated operating system?
[00:16] <Gnea> operated lol
[00:16] <serit> rallias: seems like you need a script!
[00:16] <r007> or distibuted oh later oh now of service :)
[00:16] <rallias> serit: oh...
[00:16] <dublisk> Hi, my .Xauthority file seems to be gone, what can I do to replace it?
[00:17] <serit> rallias: to sort you files
[00:17] <modulexploited> I have just updated from Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 to Ubuntu 10.10 and my headphone jack is not working... I've been reading the forums and the bugfixes but i am not able to fix this...
[00:17] <modulexploited> can some one help me with this ?
[00:17] <iceroot> modulexploited: #ubuntu+1
[00:18] <Dulak> !maverick | modulexploited
[00:18] <malel_draconis> So, does anyone know of any good music editing/mixing software for linux that I can use to remix songs?
[00:18] <r007> moduleexploited ubuntu has lts for a reason stay on lts
[00:18] <r007> or use fedora
[00:18] <serit> rallias: if you cant sort them how can you delete them?
[00:19] <Dulak> malel_draconis: audacity
[00:19] <rallias> serit: i need to delete the duplicates, and I'd really prefer not to listen to them individually
[00:19] <modulexploited> ubottu: r007: I have the same problem on LTS also...
[00:19] <malel_draconis> Dulak, thanks, just wanting to make sure it's what I was hoping it was
[00:19] <malel_draconis> Thanks all, talk to you later
[00:20] <ben____> Gnea: when I stopped gdm, it also cut out my internet
[00:20] <serit> rallias: sounds like a labour intensive process   if you cant script it
[00:20] <ben____> Gnea: so I started it again to get back on IRC, I think I might talk on IRC from my laptop so I can work on this with so many problems
[00:20] <r007> moduleexploited have you tried restarting alsa?
[00:21] <crucialhoax> Anyone here own a Acer 532h Netbook and got bluetooth working?
[00:21] <rallias> serit: so i ought to pull the super-growing pepsi out of the freezer?
[00:21] <modulexploited> r007: yes I did !
[00:21] <Tm0> hi everyone. I'm trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 on an older mac.
[00:22] <ben____> is Gnea still here?
[00:22] <Gnea> ben____: you should be able to run dhclient3 from tty2
[00:22] <mbroeker> ben____, i think that you should setup your primary internet connection for all users in network-manager and you will be able to use the internet with- and without X
[00:22] <r007> modulexploited sorry never had to do much desktop troubleshooting mine have always worked my bags servers
[00:22] <ben____> Gnea: ok, sorry, as I said, I'm really new to this
[00:22] <ryaxnbuntu> i love donkey kong jr
[00:22] <Gnea> ben____: no problem
[00:22] <aljosa> can't build amd drivers on maverick, any idea if there is known bug or am i just missing something on system?
[00:23] <modulexploited> r007: Okay
[00:23] <serit> rallias: yeah sounds like a simple  search and replace
[00:23] <IdleOne> !maverick | aljosa
[00:23] <r007> modulexploited thats why Im here Im not new to Linux but am to ubuntu
[00:23] <Tm0> hi everyone. I'm trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 on an older mac. The Mac OS loaded on it does not work. I assume it runs Tiger or lower. Any hints on how to install and everything
[00:24] <crucialhoax> Sorry I keep disconnecting :( But I cant get bluetooth working on my netbook
[00:24] <h00k> !mac | Tm0
[00:24] <r007> Tm0 doesent ubuntu only work on intel macs?
[00:25] <Tm0> r007, i was told before it would work on older macs, i don't know how. I'm almost sure its preinstal
[00:25] <Tm0> *Intel
[00:25] <tripelb> please what's the command to show your display hardware, nvidia card. lsxxx |grep vga ??
[00:25] <erov> 'allo
[00:26] <ac> yoo
[00:26] <snowveil> lspci
[00:26] <tripelb> snowveil thanks
[00:26] <ac> i whats ubuntu
[00:26] <snowveil> you're welcome :)
[00:26] <r007> tripelb yes
[00:26] <tripelb> snowveil does not work I get nothing using grep vga
[00:26] <erov> lspci -vv | grep VGA
[00:26] <erov> in caps
[00:27] <tripelb> ahhh
[00:27] <erov> err the -v and additional v's are for more verbosity
[00:27] <Tm0> r007, if i am correct isn't that the powerPC port?
[00:27] <r007> Tm0 tbh aint got a clue about macs
[00:28] <linuxman410> Tm0 here is link for ppc version http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/daily/current/
[00:28] <ac> whats ubuntu for?
[00:28] <erov> its an operating system
[00:28] <ben_> Gnea: okay, I have stopped gdm, and started dhclient3 on tty2 so I have internet. now what did you suggest I do?
[00:28] <erov> liken it to Windows, DOS, MacOS, etc.
[00:28] <Dulak> it's for kittens mainly.  Puppies sometimes too.
[00:28] <snowveil> tripelb, try lspci | grep -i vga
[00:28] <Tm0> r007, thanks anyways, linuxman410, thank you!
[00:29] <Dulak> Tm0: ppc would be for the old macs, the pre-intel ones
[00:29] <tripelb> erov r007 snowveil Nope. I get lines of stuff. What I need is to get drivers for my nvidia card so my text wont be so huge. I will also need to change something in a etc file to enable my monitor (Dell 19") -- I'm not able to get to my assorted 40 and 10 G drives that have past tech info on them and the ubuntuforums answer stopped working when I changed to this Dell computer from the past AMD.
[00:29] <edbian> ac, Why don't you burn a live CD and try it out?
[00:29] <Gnea> ben_: the X thing -  X > X.log 2>&1
[00:29] <dibblego> how do I start an application on a specific workspace?
[00:30] <tripelb> snowveil: trying your last suggestion
[00:30] <serit> hehe japanese
[00:30] <Tm0> Dulak, i'm almost certian it doesn't. ;P It can't run lepoard, and its a G4, so i'm giving both to who is asking
[00:30] <edbian> dibblego, Go to that work space.  Start the app.
[00:30] <r007> tripelb try lspci | grep vga | more
[00:30] <erov> well all lspci does is SHOW you information about the card
[00:30] <ben_> Gnea: I just did, and it seemed to have tried to launch X again, so I get a blank black screen. I guess it created a log file, where would I find it?
[00:30] <dibblego> edbian, I don't want to have to manually go to that workspace
[00:30] <Dulak> Tm0: g4 would be ppc
[00:30] <erov> as far as you are talking about I see you are going above and beyond that with your line of reasoning
[00:30] <Dulak> Tm0: the g4 cpu is a ppc cpu
[00:30] <edbian> dibblego, I am not aware of any other way.  I would be very interested if you find one :)
[00:30] <snowveil> tripelb, have you installed the nvidia drivers?
[00:31] <Tm0> Thanks Dulak
[00:31] <linuxman410> Tm0 i have run ubuntu on a g3
[00:31] <Gnea> ben_: it's in the cwd, so probably your ~
[00:31] <edbian> Tm0, Ubuntu supports power pc
[00:31] <Gnea> ben_: ctrl-alt-backspace should stop it
[00:32] <erov> for instance.. when I do lspci -v | grep VGA i get '02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G96 [GeForce 9400 GT] (rev a1)' which leads me to think I need to install nvidia drivers.. you see?
[00:32] <AnxiousNut_> Is there a command line tool for uploading blogposts to wordpress.com? I'm pretty sure there is, but i cant find it! Please help!
[00:32] <ben_> Gnea: okay I'll look for it. Thank you, one moment
[00:32] <h00k> Tm0: did you check out that link ubottu sent?
[00:32] <tripelb> snowveil: r007 ... lspci | grep -i vga     01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV17 [GeForce4 MX 420] (rev a3)  --> so far so good. Now what do I do to have the correct driver --- wait. thanks. I have a path to follow for a while. Search for drivers using Ubuntu. Brilliant.
[00:32] <Tm0> Thanks everyone i'm good! Thanks for all your help tonight, Night!
[00:32] <r007> anxiousnut have you enabled restricted drivers?
[00:33] <r007> tripelb have you enabled restricted drivers?
[00:33] <tripelb> erov I'm on my way. I've been installing extras ever since I got the system installed. Found pages of what to do. ...
[00:33] <erov> it isnt very difficult tripelb.. you need to install the proprietary drivers for nvidia (most likely) to get the card to render correctly and play nicely with everything
[00:33] <apeirce> Hey, I'm using grub2, and I want to modify my boot list.  I've been told not to directly edit grub.cfg.  How do I change my boot list?
[00:34] <erov> this is usually pretty simple since the latest releases.. not sure exactly the process.. but it should be an icon on the desktop (if in gnome/kde)
[00:34] <r007> apeirce ignore being told not to modify grub.cfg thats to protect retards
[00:34] <erov> other bets are synaptic package manager or command line (apt-get install nvidia.. etc etc>
[00:35] <tripelb> r007 I'm doing a gui thing. System, administration, hardware drivers. It told me the driver that would work and that it was not activated. So I chose to activate.
[00:35] <tripelb> erov ^^
[00:35] <snowveil> that should take care of it tripelb
[00:35] <erov> yes.. its not activated by default because of conflict of licenses
[00:35] <dublisk> Hi, my .Xauthority file seems to be gone, what can I do to replace it?
[00:35] <r007> tripelb thats activated restricted drivers then
[00:35] <erov> cool.. give it a swirl
[00:35] <apeirce> r007 Lmao ok.  I'd classify myself as a retard when it comes to mostly anything in linux.  I guess i'll try backing up the config and messing around....
[00:35] <LjL> r007: or perhaps it's to avoid Debian/Ubuntu tools later overwriting it and wiping out your changes, not sure.
[00:35] <erov> btw the mx sucks IIRC.. lol
[00:35] <tripelb> r007 thanks for the word heads-up
[00:36] <DormantOden> Hey anyone know if you can get mdadm to re-create a raid 1 array from one disk with data, and an empty disk?
[00:36] <erov> i got the "best" card i could for my small power supply (300w WTF)
[00:36] <erov> 9400 gt with 2 gigs of ram
[00:36] <r007> apeirce you just proved your not a retard you change any config in Linux your not sure of just cp a backup
[00:36] <erov> small profile too
[00:36] <apeirce> r007 ok thanks for the help
[00:37] <ben_> Gnea:sorry about that, for some reason when I hit ctrl-alt-backspace my computer shutdown
[00:37] <serit> DormantOden: raid 1  need two empty disks
[00:39] <ben_> Gnea:sorry about that, for some reason when I hit ctrl-alt-backspace my computer shutdown
[00:39] <Gnea> ben_: o.O weird... firefox just froze my system, not sure why
[00:39] <DormantOden> serit: I had a raid 1 array, and mdadm went mad one day. So atm theres just the one Linux auto-raid disk mounted as a ext4 disk. I want to put it back into raid though without loosing everything. That not possible?
[00:39]  * Gnea installs chrome
[00:39] <ben_> Gnea:so how do I view X.log? i don't have vim install apparrently.
[00:40] <Gnea> ben_: less X.log
[00:40] <ben_> installed*
[00:40] <ben_> Gnea: okay, thank you
[00:40] <Gnea> vim is for editting, not viewing :)
[00:40] <fenix849> hi, im currently having an issue  (10.04, gdm, compiz, xorg 1.7.6) where i lock my PC and when i come back, the screen is still visible and only goes away (and comes up with pw prompt) when the mouse is moved or a key is pressed. It's also intermittent.
[00:40] <r007> dormant0den you could try re syncing but Id backup first
[00:41]  * vng hello everyone
[00:41] <MalelDraconis> How can I get around the spaces in file/directory names?
[00:41] <Pentium3> maleldraconis: is this an issue in terminal?
[00:41] <fenix849> MalelDraconis: could you clarify "get around".
[00:41] <MalelDraconis> yes
[00:41] <Dulak> MalelDraconis: escape them with \: File\ with\ spaces
[00:42] <r007> meledraconis this\ is how\ you put\ spaces
[00:42] <erov> cd what\ the\ heck
[00:42] <erov> or cd "what the heck"
[00:42] <r007> should be a \ after is :)
[00:42] <MalelDraconis> k, thanks guys
[00:43] <r007> and you
[00:43] <serit> DormantOden: no
[00:43] <snowveil> or MalelDraconis, if you have few directories you can tab complete them
[00:44] <ben_> Gnea: so the log does say much, I'm not sure how to paste it in here, but, it states things at the top like the current operating system, kernel command line, then it lists where the xorg log file is and that it's using the xorg conf file and the xorg.conf.d directory. then it just says it is closing the log and that's the end of it.
[00:44] <snowveil> IE if I've got two folders titled "this folder is for stuff" and "that folder is for other stuff"
[00:44] <ben_> doesn't*
[00:44] <snowveil> I can type "thi" then hit TAB, and it should auto complete to the first one
[00:45] <plitter> lets say that i am trying to install ubuntu 10.04.1 on my new sony vaio vpcf12, but when i try the ubuntu it doesnt have keyboard or mouse... what do i do?
[00:45] <r007> depending there isnt this or thisis
[00:45] <serit> that was intence!
[00:46] <Pentium3> vaio's suck that way
[00:46] <TeslaTony> Is there a way to execute a program from the command line so that I can see on the terminal what it's up to in the background? I want to see what a program is doing with data I enter into it.
[00:46] <r007> Linux tends to suck with laptops altogether still runs better than windows just disable the power management
[00:47] <fenix849> depends on the type of program (compiled vs interpreted). type file <full path to program> to find out its type
[00:47] <edbian> TeslaTony, That depends on how the programmer wrote the program.
[00:47] <r007> TeslaTony best bet run it in a hex editor and reverse it
[00:47] <edbian> TeslaTony, The closest you can get is to run the program in the terminal in the first place.  For example firefox in when started from the terminal will print out things.
[00:47] <TheFuzzball> So... I have a test C program... #include <stdio.h> main(){printf("Hello World\n")}...
[00:48] <edbian> TheFuzzball, yeah...
[00:48] <ben_> Gnea: you still here?
[00:48] <TheFuzzball> and when I do: make -f test.c test I get "test.c:3: *** missing separator. Stop."
[00:48] <mbroeker> thefluxster, make test
[00:48] <TheFuzzball> But when I do gcc test.c and run a.out I get Hello World
[00:48] <edbian> TheFuzzball, You don't make it.  You compile it.  g++ or gcc
[00:48] <edbian> TheFuzzball, Exactly.
[00:49] <edbian> TheFuzzball, To you make you have to write a make file
[00:49] <r007> fuzzball different compilers do different things
[00:49] <TeslaTony> edbian: That might work, although I was hoping to see what it was up to while it's running...and may lack the skills to read what a hex editor is telling me. Any other way to see the data?
[00:49] <plitter> I have a problem with trying to install ubuntu 10.04.1 64 bit on my sony vaio laptop vpcf12, i make the usb startup disk and and press try at startup with a usb mouse, but when i get in the trackpad and keyboard is still not working... is there anything i can do?
[00:49] <serit> this is the beehive vimo
[00:49] <edbian> TeslaTony, Attach a debugger to it?  But that always is skill intensive if you don't have the source.  gdb (gnu debugger) can do it.
[00:50] <fenix849> TelsaTony: use the file command to determine what type of progam it is.
[00:50] <mbroeker> TheFuzzball, make test will make it. -f looks for a Makefile with another name
[00:50] <fenix849> TeslaTony: it may just be a python or shell script.
[00:50] <edbian> TeslaTony, You depend on the programmer to output stuff to the term.
[00:50] <TheFuzzball> hmm... I might be using the wrong arguement for make then...
[00:50] <edbian> TheFuzzball, You need to write a makefile to use make.
[00:50] <TheFuzzball> *reads manual*
[00:50] <TeslaTony> fenix849: How do you mean?
[00:51] <ben_> anyone, is it strange that I can't access any internet except from irssi?
[00:51] <edbian> TheFuzzball, The point of a makefile is to compile multiple .c or .cpp files
[00:51] <mbroeker> TheFuzzball, but make name will only compile and link simple apps without library dependencies. that's why makefile exists.
[00:51] <r007> teslatony look in the source
[00:51] <fenix849> TeslaTony: do which <command> to find the commands location
[00:51] <edbian> fenix849, What are you talking about?  He wants to know what a program is doing while it's running.
[00:52] <fenix849> TeslaTony: then run file <full path>
[00:52] <ben_> Gnea: you still here?
[00:52] <fenix849> edbian: so you trust with 100% certainty that its an elf binary and not a bash script.
[00:53] <edbian> fenix849, You're going to have him read the source code?
[00:53] <fenix849> no
[00:53] <Dulak> TeslaTony: strace -p pidhere and you can watch a running process
[00:53] <fenix849> set +x, google it.
[00:53] <TeslaTony> fenix849: I did that, and it outputs nothing to the terminal I run it from. What I need is to see what the program is up to, and I don't have the source
[00:53] <serit> fire in the hole
[00:54] <fenix849> TeslaTony: which command?
[00:54] <P2E> hi guys, I loaded ubuntu 10.04.1 on several old machines (they're still capable of running it; all have no less than 384M ram) and I seem to consistently lose the top and bottom gnome panels. I haven't removed them or anything; they just don't appear. gnome is infact running because I can alt+f2 and get a gnome-style run dialog. anywhere I can look for fixes?
[00:54] <wizz> is there a way to merge two location into one directory?
[00:54] <serit> thanks fellows
[00:54] <r007> if you dont have the source it aint a bash script
[00:54] <TeslaTony> Dulak: Ahhh. That looks helpful. Thanks.
[00:54] <vng> wizz: what do you meant?
[00:55] <linus_t0rv41dz> vng
[00:55] <linus_t0rv41dz> what a cute nick
[00:55] <vng> linus_t0rv41dz: :)
[00:56] <r007> is Linus active with any distros at the moment?
[00:56] <wizz> whether I can combine the two locations into one directory?
[00:57] <wizz> vng, whether I can combine the two locations into one directory?
[00:58] <edbian> r007, He works on the kernel.  Not with a specific distro
[00:58] <serit> the product works so well
[00:58] <edbian> wizz, cp /directory/one/* /directory/two/
[00:59] <vng> wizz: I think you can't except copy files
[00:59] <edbian> wizz, I'm not really 100% sure what you mean by "merge a location"
[00:59] <hiexpo> evening all
[01:00] <vng> hello hiexpo
[01:00] <edbian> hiexpo, hey
[01:00] <Trian3> Hey all.  Can anyone help w/ a little Samba problem?
[01:01] <abstrakt> is there a hotkey to jump to a given letter on the CMD line?
[01:01] <wizz> edbian, sorry. we're not speak english in my country. i mean like to combine two shortcut of location in one directory.
[01:01] <abstrakt> like the f command in vim or the C-s command in emacs?
[01:01] <abstrakt> i know C-a and C-k and C-e which are all wonderfully useful, but I really want a better way to navigate than just holding down C-f and C-b
[01:02] <edbian> wizz, Sorry, bud.  That makes no sense.  Ask in the channel for your language!
[01:02] <Guest59984> hey guys, how do I change my nickname?
[01:02] <mbroeker>  /nick newnick
[01:02] <Guest59984> thank you
[01:02] <edbian> ben_, You look much more mature now.
[01:02] <Trian3> Samba...  anyone?
[01:03] <wizz> edbian, thanks. i think it's impossible too before.
[01:03] <ben_> edbian: thank you :) I'm actually looking for Gnea for something he was helping me with. you know if he is still here?
[01:03] <vng> Trian3: !ask
[01:03] <edbian> ben_, He isn't
[01:03] <edbian> ben_, type Gn and press tab.  His name doesn't come up
[01:03] <r007> wizz just make a sym link
[01:04] <Trian3> vng:  Well, I configured my smb.conf file and when I run testparm, it doesn't match up with what I configured.
[01:04] <tf> i need some help with wireless device
[01:04] <wizz> what is that, r007?
[01:04] <r007> wizz a symbolic link
[01:04] <brUcEg> wizz, man ln
[01:05] <r007> !symbolic link wizz
[01:05] <ben_> edbian: alright, thank you though. you interested in trying to help? I'm runnin Ubuntu lucid on a mac mini (core2duo) and it won't output to the mini-display port anything more than 640x480. the mini-dvi is fine though.
[01:05] <r007> !irc r007 :)
[01:05] <abstrakt> tf, lots of people need that
[01:05] <serit> god daMMIT
[01:05] <wizz> !sym
[01:05] <tf> haha
[01:05] <serit> STILL NOT OUT
[01:05] <edbian> ben_, I don't think I can help.  No experience with a mac mini :(
[01:05] <wizz> !symbolic
[01:06] <tf> , is there anyone here that can help?
[01:06] <serit> haha
[01:06] <vng> the bot is sleeping
[01:06] <Trian3> vng:  Well, I configured my smb.conf file and when I run testparm, it doesn't match up with what I configured.
[01:06] <r007> !wakeup
[01:06] <mbroeker> tf, which wireless device? usb or pci?
[01:06] <vng> Trian3: just ask, and someone will help you
[01:06] <ben_> edbian: mmk, thanks anyways :)
[01:06] <tf> usb, linksys net work adaptor
[01:07] <ben_> anyone interested in trying to help? I'm runnin Ubuntu lucid on a mac mini (core2duo) and it won't output to the mini-display port anything more than 640x480. the mini-dvi is fine though.
[01:07] <Trian3> vng:  I just did.  How do I resolve differences between testparm results and the smb.conf file?
[01:08] <r007> ben_ change your xorg.conf maybe
[01:08] <tf> im actually using kubuntu
[01:09] <r007> ewwwwwww kde
[01:09] <brUcEg_> Trian3, why dont you use: Places>Connect to Server ?
[01:09] <r007> lol :)
[01:09] <ben_> r007: I have tried already, I have added the mode to the screen to have it go to 1360x768, but when I save and reboot, it just reverts back to "auto" which is 640x480, without even giving the option to change it to a higher res.
[01:09] <fenix849> brUcEg_: if im not mistaken, smb.conf is usually associated with samba, not smbfs/smbclient
[01:09] <tf> r007 are they not the same except for the gui?
[01:10] <r007> tf what does ifconfig show
[01:10] <Trian3> brUcEg_:  I'm trying to configure this linux box as the server.
[01:10] <fenix849> Trian3: just to get the obvious out of the way, tried /etc/init.d/samba reload
[01:10] <r007> tf yeah Im kidding
[01:10] <Gnea> ben_: hi, sorry, I got disconnected
[01:10] <brUcEg_> ah
[01:10] <brUcEg_> trian3, never mind my suggestion
[01:10] <fbianconi> ben_ try xrander on a console, do you see the resolution you're looking for?
[01:10] <tf> ifconfig?
[01:10] <fbianconi> *xrandr
[01:11] <r007> tf your network configuration
[01:11] <r007> tf well your network adapters to be precise
[01:11] <linus_t0rv41dz> it's spelled precize
[01:11] <r007> thanks :)
[01:11] <tf> os doesn't even see the device in the network settings, it's like it's not there. Only sees the wired card
[01:11] <linus_t0rv41dz> whatever
[01:12] <r007> Im English though and we speak proper English
[01:12] <serit> DormantOden: sorted?

[01:12] <Gnea> linus_t0rv41dz: do you have a question?
[01:12] <ben_> fbianconi: I have, and no, it only lists my mini-dvi port screen, not the mini-display port
[01:13] <ben_> Gnea: did you get my message about what is in the X.log?
[01:13] <linus_t0rv41dz> Gnea; why do you want to know
[01:13] <brUcEg_> it is allowed to post links here?
[01:13] <r007> shro0ms you use cp or mv?
[01:13] <shro0ms> r007, mv
[01:13] <linus_t0rv41dz> cp? lol
[01:13] <r007> shro0ms dont think you can then
[01:13] <shro0ms> fml
[01:13] <r007> shro0ms equivalent of /dev/null I believe
[01:14] <serit> DormantOden: good idea
[01:14] <linus_t0rv41dz> old dev/null meme is old
[01:14] <tf> r007, I tried a wusb54g by linksys

[01:14] <shro0ms> well this really blows...
[01:15] <IdleOne> linus_t0rv41dz: yes
[01:15] <brUcEg_> Trian3, did you google it?
[01:15] <serit> DormantOden:OMG thats not really important
[01:15] <IdleOne> linus_t0rv41dz: but that should not make a difference, you have been asked to please take the chatter elsewhere
[01:16] <Trian3> brUceg_:  Yes, and I've been going through a few man pages & guides as well.
[01:16] <Trian3> It's slow-going, though.

[01:16] <fenix849> Trian3: did you try reloading the samba config?
[01:17] <tf> r007, how do I load that, total newbie here

[01:17] <undecim> I have a separate /boot partition that is not mounted at boot (by design; ironic, huh?), does that mean I will have to remember to mount it manually before each kernel update to avoid borking my system, or will I get an error before the update is done? Is there any way I can be prompted to mount the /boot partition before a kernel update?
[01:17] <IdleOne> linus_t0rv41dz: my op status is not relevant.
[01:18] <linus_t0rv41dz> <ignoring ALL from ubottu>
[01:18] <tigertv69> ok in any event
[01:18] <tigertv69> anyone know how to connect rocket 2.0 tmobile to ubuntu ????

[01:19] <plitter> how long will it take to resize a ntfs partition from 454 to 62 GB? Anyone have an estimat?
[01:19] <undecim> plitter: Depends on how much stuff is on it
[01:20] <brUcEg_> plitter, i did a ntfs from 500gb to 400gb and was like 4 hours
[01:20] <brUcEg_> it had 200gb of data
[01:20] <fenix849> plitter: yeah its not quick
[01:20] <undecim> plitter: It's probably best to copy everything to another drive and start a new ntfs partition
[01:20] <ben_> Gnea: did you get my message about what is in the X.log?
[01:20] <ben_> damn, he got disconnected again
[01:21] <dan_> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9877698#post9877698     Can someone help me out with installing my gt330m on 10.04
[01:21] <r007> plitter an empty partition is very quick though
[01:22] <plitter> undecim: its the windows partition... and it takes like 40 GB
[01:22] <r007> plitter I reckon youd be best moving the 40gb to another part would be quicker that a resize imo
[01:23] <plitter> hehehe :) its a new computer so i hope it doesnt take to long
[01:23] <plitter> r007: too late already started...
[01:23] <brUcEg_> plitter, if its new, just nuke everything, re-partition, and re-install. Will be faster
[01:23] <r007> plitter enjoy :)
[01:23] <brUcEg_> plitter, get your tea and tv shows :P
[01:24] <plitter> r007: brUcEg_: think i better:P
[01:24] <plitter> r007: brUcEg_: doesnt give an estimate
[01:24] <brUcEg_> what are you using?
[01:24] <brUcEg_> gparted?
[01:24] <plitter> yes
[01:24] <brUcEg_> it will start, and at one point will "freeze"
[01:25] <brUcEg_> just forget about it for a few hours
[01:25] <r007> plitter you wont get an estimate on a resize it doesent know
[01:25] <lorenzocabrini> window 4
[01:25] <lorenzocabrini> sorry
[01:25] <plitter> r007:  brUcEg_: ITS DONE:D thanks for keeping me company:)
[01:26] <brUcEg_> another happy ending
[01:26] <r007> plitter you sure?
[01:26] <r007> plitter have you comitted it?
[01:27] <plitter> r007: it said it was done, and have pressed finished and everything:D
[01:27] <r007> plitter nice I want your box lol
[01:28] <r007> plitter you have to apply the changes using the gui though check it has resized
[01:28] <plitter> its a new sony vaio:D the trackpad doesnt work though but i think i found a fix
[01:28] <brUcEg_> r007, well, he said it was a new box. Perhaps since no defragmentation is present, the process is allowed to go faster

[01:30] <rob> hello
[01:30] <brUcEg_> rames, video card?
[01:30] <rames> doing a basic "big monitor on top of little laptop" and the panel wants to stick to that bottom one
[01:30] <ben_____> sigh, is it sad that I enjoy working with tty far more than X?
[01:30] <rob> can anyone help me with install of aircrack, and my wireless card chipset
[01:30] <rames> brUcEg_: netbook, onboard video, i can get you output if you think it's relevant ... monitors are detected, image displays but gnome panels "don't work right"
[01:30] <r007> going\ to\ bed | grep good night\ all | shutdown now :)
[01:31] <brUcEg_> rames, i mean, what video card are you using?
[01:31] <brUcEg_> intel, nvidia, ati
[01:31] <brUcEg_> nite r007
[01:32] <rob> [   12.316972] eth0: no link during initialization.
[01:32] <rob>  what does that mean?
[01:32] <rames> brUcEg_: 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[01:32] <brUcEg_> rob, that there is not link during initialization
[01:32] <wizz> r007,  i wanna merge two links of two different directoy
[01:32] <Dulak> rob: it means the ethernet card isn't seeing link when the driver initialized
[01:33] <brUcEg_> intel
[01:33] <rob> thanks bruce, dulak...how do i get the chipset ?
[01:33] <brUcEg_> rames, i guess you're stuck with the ubuntu gfx panel. I use nvidia, so i have some other options
[01:33] <rames> brUcEg_: i'm a little fuzzy on multiple monitor support for linux, is there a way to make the big monitor "primary" or something?
[01:33] <well_laid_lawn> !tab | rob
[01:33] <brUcEg_> rob, lspci
[01:33] <Dulak> rob: lspci should show it
[01:34] <rames> that's really what i'm after but I don't know where those settings might be
[01:34] <wizz> can i merge two links of two different directory to one folder?
[01:34] <rob> wow, thanks!
[01:35] <brUcEg_> wizz, what is it that you want again? that doesnt make much sense.. care to elaborate?
[01:36] <rames> brUcEg_: so... i have two monitors, one builtin netbook monitor (i am running *gnome* session, not netbook remix) i have standard app / places / system panel ... that is "stuck" on the small laptop down below
[01:36] <rames> brUcEg_: i don't know what the state of multi-monitor support is in modern linux but on macs you can change which monitor is "primary" so all the housekeeping crap goes onto that one
[01:37] <rames> brUcEg_: in the absence of that is it possible to add new panels to a different monitor?  or where can i go to educate myself on this topic?
[01:37] <wizz> brUcEg_, don't get angry, i just ask
[01:37] <brUcEg_> wizz, im not angry.. just trying to understand the request you have
[01:37] <brUcEg_> rames,  i dont have two monitors.. i can't play around.. sorry
[01:38] <rames> wizz: likely not ... you have /a/b/c and /a/b/d and you want the output of both "c" and "d" to show up when you type ls?
[01:38] <anger78> hi >im thinking of: i have actually dual boot win/ubu per grub, the plan is to build something that makes the comp restart with windows for 1 time
[01:38] <rames> wizz: i don't know of a good way to do that but you might look into "fuse" (filesystem in user space) there might be some kind of plugin that allows that
[01:39] <wizz> rames. yes. that's it
[01:39] <rob> Does anyone know off had is AR928X aka AR5009 compatible with aircrack?
[01:39] <brUcEg_> anger78, another box running windows?
[01:39] <brUcEg_> :P
[01:40] <anger78> @bruce:no, thats not the plan at all^
[01:40] <brUcEg_> wizz, you can make a script, and then alias it to the system
[01:40] <wizz> thanks rames, and sorry brUcEg_ for make you confuse.
[01:40] <rames> wizz no worries ... sometimes it is hard to know the words you need to ask the right question
[01:41] <brUcEg_> ls -l /a/b/c; ls -l /a/b/d

[01:49] <Fuzion24> what is the easiest way to establish an ssl connection to a server and just dump data?
[01:49] <rames> gnea: 1) closing bugs "when using external monitors just log out and log back in using a different session"
[01:50] <mbroeker> Fuzion24, http smtp or what?
[01:50] <rames> gnea: 2) unable to configure panel when in "netbook session" (for whatever bass ackward reason), you have to clone / destroy default GNOME session in order to configure panels (ie: add applet, change applets, etc)
[01:50] <Fuzion24> proprietary
[01:51] <Gnea> rames: 1) netbooks typically use intel-based video hardware, restarting X is typically the only way. Deal with it or write a patch.
[01:51] <Fuzion24> mbroeker, got a good solution?
[01:51] <mbroeker> Fuzion24, openssl s_client ....

[01:53] <rames> gnea: i can understand technical difficulties (ie: video driver doesn't support xyz) but for example i just needed to  (from regular gnome session) gconf-edit top_panel_screen0 to be on monitor=1 ... i mean ... "it would be nice" if things were a bit more automatic
[01:54] <rames> gnea: just disappointed that it requires some manual intervention (hopefully scriptable) to "do the right thing" and it's good to know there are driver issues preventing some of the things i'd like to have
[01:54] <Evil_I_AM> whats the easiest way to kill yourself without pain, must be quick too
[01:55] <Gnea> rames: it's open source software. if it's not there, then you make it happen. you can't complain to a bunch of non-paid people to demand the kinds of things that you can from a bunch of paid employees whose job it is to make those changes... just sayin'
[01:55] <jrib> Evil_I_AM: this channel is for ubuntu support only.
[01:55] <Gnea> rames: the "right thing" is to implement it yourself, or find someone else who's trying to work on it.
[01:56] <undecim> Howto burn iso with wodim?
[01:56] <weekly> what the command to get a list of the samba shares on a machine?
[01:56] <rames> Gnea: yeah... but the other frustrating thing is that maverick netbook seems to completely change stuff (and is currently too buggy for me to use) ... i just got this netbook and am trying to match a ubuntu config to what the original xandros behaviour was (asus 1000)
[01:56] <Gnea> rames: not trying to sound like a jerk here, but historically, that's how it works. now, the evolution of gnome itself came about as a direct result of people being paid by redhat to develop it.
[01:56] <dublisk> Can anyone point me to a good tutorial to share certain folders over the network to other linux computers?
[01:56] <dublisk> I want it password protected too
[01:57] <undecim> dublisk: With Ubuntu, you should be able to right-click and choose "Share this folder'
[01:57] <hiexpo> undecim, what kinda iso image you trying to burn and to what cd > dvd > usb   ?
[01:57] <dublisk> undecim : how does the other computer access it?
[01:57] <Gnea> rames: have you attempted to post something about it to ubuntuforums.org? perhaps someone else has done that work already
[01:57] <Fuzion24> mbroeker, i found this http://prefetch.net/articles/debuggingssl.html but it doesnt look like i can send binary data
[01:57] <undecim> ubuntu iso to the only cd drive in the machine
[01:57] <undecim> dublisk: smb://hostname/sharename
[01:57] <rames> Gnea: yeah... you're much more polite about not being a jerk than a lot of other people usually are :) ... just frustrated as i'm coming from mac hardware / software to kindof esoteric linux system
[01:58] <fred2040> Hi, I began to install mysql, apache, php5... and everything works fine..,but when I try to open a localhost with <?php(info);?> PHP don't start... I mean the page its in white
[01:58] <rames> Gnea: been all over the forums w.r.t. the "can't add applet to panel" thing
[01:58] <fred2040> any suggestion?
[01:58] <dublisk> undecim : you can mount it like that?
[01:58] <rames> Gnea: and w.r.t. "when i plug in the monitor the panels don't do the right thing" it's not that big a deal now that i understand what's going on...
[01:58] <Gnea> rames: I honestly can't see a reason to do so, it's small enough as it is
[01:59] <flan_suse> Okay.
[01:59] <undecim> dublisk: There is a way to mount smb shares, but gnome will do it for you automatically
[01:59] <dublisk> ah mount -t smbfs
[01:59] <mbroeker> Fuzion24, http://www.madboa.com/geek/openssl/#cs that's my preferred help page
[01:59] <rames> Gnea: hah.  yeah you and mr. shuttleworth both!  :^) problem is that if you want to change task-switcher-a to task-switcher-b you can't it's somehow locked down so tight it requires a restart to make any changes (even in gconf-edit)
[01:59] <flan_suse> I wouldn't consider "do it yourself" a feasible option to an end-user. Not everyone's a programmer. In fact, it's a tiny minority of end-users who are.
[02:00] <dublisk> undecim : the other boxes might not have gnome installed
[02:00] <mbroeker> Fuzion24, but anyway, i have no clue about proprietary protocols from unknown internet users :)
[02:00] <dublisk> some of them are red hat also
[02:00] <rames> Gnea: *AND* (key point) for example if there's an eee-pc applet that makes buttons to do something funny you can't add it ... i think it might only be able to go into notify area which not all applets are designed to do
[02:00] <rob> where can i find  ath9k drive
[02:00] <undecim> dublisk: Will you be the only other person using these, or will other ppl be?
[02:01] <Gnea> rames: haven't seen/heard of that one before... would be nice
[02:01] <dublisk> I want it so only I can access it
[02:01] <rames> Gnea: but i do understand the rationale- don't want gramma messing up gnome-panel on a netbook ... that's just bad news, although i don't understand why you can't "sudo unlock-panel && sudo relock-panel"
[02:01] <undecim> dublisk: Setup an SSH server then.
[02:02] <rames> Gnea: so it's little stuff like that ... you have the "i know what's best for you" attitude but you can't add a button to the panel that toggles stuff around due to external monitor plug events, etc.
[02:02] <undecim> dublisk: You can access it via gvfs (i.e. nautilus) or through a command-line tool (rsync, scp) or mount it with sshfs.
[02:03] <Fuzion24> meh, thanks anways
[02:03] <dublisk> you cant have password protection for smbfs?
[02:03] <alexandre> Someone here write in Planeta Ubuntu Brasil ?!?!!?
[02:03] <undecim> dublisk: Well, you can, I think, but ssh is much more secure, and if you are only going to be doing this on Linux machines, it's the best option IMHO
[02:03] <tripleb>  HELP I rebooted and my text got so big that I cant get to  system in the application places system. It shows but  starts other things. I thought I'd go to display. I
[02:04] <dublisk> Its going to be IO heavy as well, so I don't want or need any encryption
[02:04] <opert> :D
[02:04] <opert> woot
[02:04] <opert> iI' mLO VEU
[02:04] <undecim> dublisk: SSH is also a lot more flexible. You can login and run commands via SSH. This would make working with files over the network easier if you know how to use the command line
[02:04] <dublisk> I just want basic password protection to mount it
[02:04] <opert> i'm trying to get wubi.exe 32 bit
[02:05] <opert> any suggestions?
[02:05] <rames> tripleb: ALT-F2 then "gnome-display-properties"
[02:05] <flan_suse> dublisk: Password to access the share itself? Or password to mount the share?
[02:05] <dublisk> flan_suse : just to mount would be fine
[02:05] <opert> i need a 32 bit version of ubuntu, i dont mind what version. but i prefer the .exe intaller
[02:05] <dublisk> security concerns are minor
[02:05] <undecim> dublisk: If you want minimal overhead, an FTP server would be good, too
[02:06] <rob> anyone know where to get the ath9k driver?
[02:06] <prettyrobots> I'd like to create a script that installs postfix with a GMail relay.
[02:06] <lorenzocabrini> dublisk: if the remote share requires a password then you need to enter a password
[02:06] <lulu7> opert, why the exe installer?
[02:06] <prettyrobots> Should I try building an RPM or do I just write a bash script and run it sudo?
[02:06] <flan_suse> dublisk: Well to mount, you would need root privileges, so it will prompt for the user's password anyways. (As long as user is in admin group)
[02:06] <dublisk> yeah but I just need to mount once
[02:06] <allan8904> whats a good kernel debugger for ubuntu?
[02:06] <opert> very noob is why, plus i have no usb, only blank cds
[02:06] <alexandre> Someone here write in Planeta Ubuntu Brasil ?!?!!?
[02:06] <mbroeker> prettyrobots, the common postfix setup routine handles it ...
[02:06] <lulu7> opert Are you dual booting?
[02:07] <rames> tripleb: let me know if that worked ... ALT-F2 gnome-display-properties
[02:07] <undecim> dublisk, flan_suse: If there is anyone else on your network (or if, for example, you have a wifi access point, secured or not) you will want to password protect the share.
[02:07] <prettyrobots> mbroeker: Can I automate that. It asks me questions.
[02:07] <alexandre> lulu7, I have dual boot in mi laptop
[02:07] <obengdako> opert dual booting is better than using wubi to install
[02:07] <dublisk> ok, so I have a cluster of ~ 10 computers that I am using for computational work. They all write results to databases that I want in a central location. Right now what I am doing is that a windows machine is hosting a shared folder, and I mount it using mount -t cifs //machine/folder /folder -o user=myuser  and then enter my password.
[02:08] <dublisk> Once I've done that on all 10 machines they can all write their results to the shared folder
[02:08] <opert> yes i want to duel boot, i want to keep windows
[02:08] <lulu7> opert, you can make a live cd and there will be an walk through from there
[02:08] <opert> a live cd?
[02:08] <dublisk> I want the same setup but without the windows share and have a linux box hosting the shared folder
[02:08] <opert> all i have is cd rom
[02:08] <mbroeker> prettyrobots, set it up properly and do: tar -cvzf postfix.tgz /etc/postfix
[02:08] <opert> will it be big enough?
[02:08] <dublisk> So a password is required once just to mount and thats it
[02:08] <lulu7> opert, cd rom = live cd. 10.04 fits on a regular 700mb cdrom
[02:08] <obengdako> it saves you the trouble of having first your file system mounted virtually and then depending on your windows distribution
[02:08] <undecim> dublisk: I would look at setting up an FTP or NFS server then.
[02:08] <dublisk> since I mount it within my home directory on each of the 10 computers
[02:08] <mbroeker> prettyrobots, and untar your default config on all your client machines ....
[02:09] <lulu7> opert, are you using windows 7?
[02:09] <opert> no
[02:09] <prettyrobots> mbreoker: Sounds good. Thanks.
[02:09] <opert> im on
[02:09] <dublisk> it can't be nfs, it has to open files using C++ iostream etc
[02:09] <dublisk> erm cant be ftp
[02:09] <tripleb> rames it's just a lot of information. No actions.
[02:09] <opert> windows xp
[02:09] <obengdako> opert, what then do you use?
[02:09] <opert> xp
[02:09] <dublisk> can you use nfs to share a single folder?
[02:09] <lulu7> opert, I do not believe xp has a native iso burner. Which you will need to make the proper formatted cd
[02:10] <dublisk> I want the analogue of sharing a windows folder and mounting with cifs
[02:10] <rames> tripleb: it should let you change resolution, etc.
[02:10] <opert> or get wubi.exe, but it only comes in 64 bit?
[02:10] <lulu7> opert someone else here may know a good app to use
[02:10] <well_laid_lawn> dublisk:  sure - you just export the one folder
[02:10] <tripleb> rames it's a real bug to be able to lose ability to access the programs on the taskbar.
[02:10] <mbroeker> prettyrobots, but i would setup ONE machine with real credentials and all the other machines will use that relay as their relay
[02:10] <dublisk> well_laid_lawn : can you point me to something describing how to set it up?
[02:10] <undecim> dublisk: If you're already used to doing this with the windows server and just want to use a Linux server instead, then use a samba share.
[02:10] <lulu7> opert, I think (do not hold me to it) but the 32bit download should also work like the 64bit in that aspect
[02:10] <obengdako> opert what burning software do you have on your machine xp
[02:10] <opert> wubi.exe only comes in 64 bit? i rly want 32 for gaming
[02:10] <rames> tripleb: xrandr -s 1024x768 ... try that (from command line somewhere?)
[02:10] <well_laid_lawn> !nfs | dublisk
[02:11] <prettyrobots> mbroeker: I'm trying to build an EC2 image or generate Ubuntu recipe/stack for Node.js developers.
[02:11] <prettyrobots> And I'm looking for a way to get email running for them fast.
[02:11] <dublisk> whats the advantage/disadvantage of samba vs NFS ?
[02:11] <prettyrobots> Just use a GMail account is a good enough solution, I think.
[02:11] <lulu7> opert, it does help to have the cd inspite of just incase you need a reinstall
[02:12] <alexandre> Someone here write in Planeta Ubuntu Brasil ?!?!!?
[02:12] <well_laid_lawn> dublisk:  nfs is less "chatty" on the network afaik
[02:12] <opert> will ubuntu fit on a regular music cd?
[02:12] <tripleb> rames it asked me if I wanted to use the vedors graphics drivers instead because I didnt have the ability to use the tool. THAT gave me the info screens. --- I didnt do xrandr yet BUT I removed everything from the taskbar and now I can get to system. BUT how do I fix this -BIG LETTERS. lol
[02:12] <lulu7> opert, yes. 700mb cd
[02:12] <undecim> dublisk: From what I can find though google, NFS is fastest transfer for large files.
[02:12] <obengdako> yes it will fit on a regular 700mb
[02:12] <dublisk> ok maybe I'll go with NFS then
[02:12] <undecim> dublisk: http://www.brighthub.com/computing/linux/articles/10839.aspx
[02:13] <opert> thx
[02:13] <opert> <3
[02:13] <tripleb> rames hara1@hara1-desktop:~$ xrandr -s 1024x768
[02:13] <tripleb> Size 1024x768 not found in available modes
[02:13] <obengdako> opert what disk writing software do you have?
[02:13] <rames> tripleb ... xrandr for me gives: 1024x600       60.0*+   65.0    ... the starred line is the resolution ... you can then do xrandr -s ZZZZxYYYY to change it
[02:13] <lorenzocabrini> dublisk: otoh, nfs requires you to keep user databases synced, or use something like ldap for central auth
[02:13] <opert> so i download it, and get an iso burner?
[02:13] <dublisk> user databases?
[02:13] <prettyrobots> Does Ubuntu have any nice, open source monitoring tool, with charts and such.
[02:13] <obengdako> yes get an iso burner opert
[02:13] <lorenzocabrini> dublisk: /etc/password
[02:14] <lulu7> opert, Magic iso or something like that yes. It will open the iso file and burn it properly to a CD. making it a live CD (which is what you want)
[02:14] <prettyrobots> I'm currently using Munin. It's nice, but it seems like something more AJAX would be nice.
[02:14] <dublisk> does the username have to match or UID as well
[02:14] <lorenzocabrini> nfs gets cranky when usernames and userids don't match.
[02:14] <obengdako> opert, yes just like lulu7 said
[02:14] <rames> tripleb: how did you get into this mess?  :D
[02:14] <dublisk> usernames is fine, I have the same username on all machines
[02:14] <lorenzocabrini> for what you want to do I would probably stick with smbmount
[02:14] <opert> live cd? and if i download the torrent that ends in .iso i should be good?
[02:14] <opert> whats live cd :(
[02:15] <rames> can anyone give me pointers on what to look for for "external monitor hotplug events"?  is that acpi?  hotplug?? something else?
[02:15] <obengdako> opert, yes you should be good
[02:15] <opert> thx :D
[02:15] <obengdako> opert, a live cd is a cdrom that is bootable
[02:15] <rames> i'm trying to trigger an action when monitor plug is detected
[02:15] <opert> ok thx
[02:15] <opert> sry for dumb questions
[02:15] <obengdako> opert, so the machine can run, off the cd
[02:15] <opert> only 11, trying to get into linux early
[02:15] <opert> i understand
[02:15] <obengdako> opert, really, 11 , that's great
[02:15] <tripleb> ranes I feel dumb. I didnt know how to apply what you told me. I did it literally and got an "info" for it. hara1@hara1-desktop:~$ xrandr -s ZZZZxYYYY
[02:16] <tripleb> usage: xrandr [options] where options are: -display <display> or -d <display> -help
[02:16] <dublisk> quick question, ubuntu desktop by default you can't ssh into ?
[02:16] <hiexpo> opert, kool
[02:16] <jrib> dublisk: right, sshd is not installed by default
[02:16] <opert> :D
[02:16] <rames> tripleb: lol ... ok... "xrandr" just by itself should give you a list of acceptable modes
[02:16] <lorenzocabrini> dublisk: no you need to install openssh-server
[02:16] <undecim> dublisk: ubuntu desktop has not SSHd installed unless you install it yourself
[02:16] <dublisk> k
[02:16] <avi_> hello folks!
[02:16] <dublisk> Have to wait to tomorrow to set this up then
[02:17] <rames> tripleb: xrandar -s 1234x567  should try to set the monitor to that resolution ... 1234x567 is no way going to work so you have to pick one of the modes that "xrandr" by itself supports
[02:18] <rames> tripleb: but it sounds like you might have misconfigured something with your graphics setup so that it isn't supporting your video card correctly anymore
[02:18] <undecim> !hi | avi_
[02:18] <rames> tripleb: if you can get a ~better~ resolution via that "xrandr -s ...." command that'll help you to be able to diagnose the probable real root cause (misconfigured graphics card driver)
[02:19] <rames> tripleb: since your letters won't be so big! :P
[02:20] <avi_> undecim, Nice name.. 11 :D
[02:20] <undecim> so anyways... how do I burn the ubuntu iso with wodim?
[02:20] <turtle__> hello
[02:20] <undecim> avi_: Ty, lol
[02:20] <turtle__> i dont trust acpi -t is showing me the right temperature, are there any other cmds?
[02:21] <Gnea> turtle__: I prefer lm-sensors
[02:21] <undecim> avi_: You're the second person in history to realize it XD
[02:21] <Squarism> ǵah.. how do i kill a process taht doesnt die with "kill -9 pid"
[02:21] <scott--> hit it with a big stick.
[02:21] <Gnea> Squarism: kill its parent
[02:21] <GuillermoC> .
[02:21] <hiexpo> killall
[02:21] <avi_> undecim, Haha. Latin FTW!
[02:22] <turtle__> Gnea, i have the package...whats the c,d?
[02:22] <obengdako> tripleb, have you tried xrandr --output LVDS --mode 1024x768
[02:22] <Gnea> turtle__: if it's configured correctly (there's documentation that outlines this process), then sensors should do it
[02:22] <undecim> well, to the manual, I guess...
[02:23] <turtle__> damnit, why cant anything ever be simple! :P
[02:23] <turtle__> just wanted to check the temp before i went to bed
[02:23] <undecim> oh... wodim file.iso... that was easy
[02:23] <Gnea> it is simple! :)
[02:24] <turtle__> wherest he documentation to make sure something i've never used is configured properly then? :]
[02:24] <hiexpo> :)
[02:24] <Gnea> you mean you don't know how to use google?
[02:24] <Gnea> !sensors
[02:24] <Gnea> goodness, didn't even need it
[02:25] <turtle__> im tempted to just believe its 13 degrees
[02:25] <turtle__> ;)
[02:26] <Gnea> there's documentation, enjoy :)
[02:26] <tripleb> obengdako I will after I paste this next line
[02:26] <tripleb> rames--"it sounds like you might have misconfigured something with your graphics setup so that it isn't supporting your video card correctly anymore
[02:26] <tripleb> " YES. --"if you can get a ~better~ resolution via that "xrandr -s ...." command that'll help you to be able to diagnose the probable real root cause (misconfigured graphics card driver)" yes but I've got it pretty functional, if still difficult, now. --- SITUATION: my letters were too big. I went to Drivers. It suggested Nvidia driver not activated, so I clicked on activate.  HERE's my EQ: VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV
[02:26] <hiexpo> Gnea,  - thats why i do not answer most they should learn how to look for problems them selfs  and not be spoon feed
[02:26] <opert> i'm burning ubuntu iso with magiciso, i can mount it as bootable cd or as linux cd, what do i do
[02:27] <Gnea> hiexpo: "give a man a fish and he eats for a day, show a man how to fish and he eats for years"
[02:27] <undecim> opert: You shouldn't need to mount the iso...
[02:27] <drew212> how do i boot to the grub menu, it is getting skipped in my boot up process? i tried to locate /boot/grub/menu.lst but its nonexhistant
[02:27] <opert> :( what do i do then
[02:27] <dublisk> another question: If I lost my .Xauthority file somehow, can I just chmod 777 my home directory and run xauth ?
[02:28] <tripleb> obengdako I get: $ xrandr --output LVDS --mode 1024x768
[02:28] <tripleb> warning: output LVDS not found; ignoring
[02:28] <dublisk> I don't know why it is gone, I was trying setting up vncserver and somehow it got erased
[02:29] <hiexpo> Gnea, give a man no food /he will learn to survive on his own > give him everything he will depend
[02:29] <tripleb> is there a way I can boot up in "safe mode" for the graphics
[02:29] <rames> tripleb: i'm afraid to try to help you too much, i might get interrupted and have to leave and graphics stuff can take a while to resolve (log in / out / reboot, etc)
[02:29] <Gnea> hiexpo: eh, that's a bit on the extremely wrong side
[02:30] <tripleb> well thanks rames
[02:30] <Gnea> tripleb: when you boot up, there should be a 'safe mode' session
[02:30] <rames> tripleb: plus i only know how to configure stuff "the old way" like by hand ... there's probably tons of better ways to do things nowadays
[02:30] <Gnea> but you have to select it before you login
[02:30] <tripleb> Hello, my new install suggested I accept the mfg's drivers and now things are so very very big. lol gnea ok I'll reboot.
[02:31] <hiexpo> Gnea, i know but it's true
[02:31] <tripleb> By hand is just fine.
[02:31] <weekly> Quick question: How do I get my current samba version number?
[02:31] <Gnea> hiexpo: getting tired of it existing
[02:31] <tripleb> I'll look for the choice.
[02:31] <scott--> I wonder if it's just the text and buttons that are big, or if the actual resolution is low
[02:31] <hiexpo> ditto
[02:31] <turtle__> following the configuration on the website, just gotta ask what this means...http://pastebin.org/1096181
[02:31] <ShdWolf> hey guys I'm trying to get a launcher for autopsy running sudo autopsy %u http://localhost:9999/autopsy is what I have so far but it wont open the web page where is my dialog wrong?
[02:32] <tripleb> scott the resolution is low. as set not as possible
[02:32] <rames> weekly: dpkg -l samba
[02:32] <drew212> how do i show the grub menu on boot if it's not showing?
[02:32] <rames> weekly: (ell ... list)
[02:32] <tripleb> scott where do I go to reset the resolution? I thought it was system admin display but ...
[02:32] <scott--> System - Monitors
[02:32] <hiexpo> i don't know that autopsy is supported in ubuntu
[02:32] <scott--> Preferences -
[02:32] <scott--> sorry
[02:32] <ShdWolf> its in the main resposatories
[02:33] <weekly> thanks rames
[02:33] <Kre10s> hey. I've just compiled a hello world program that leaks memory.

[02:34] <has564> Ubuntu newbie here, Problem with Ubuntu 10.04 installation I am sure I am not the only one
[02:34] <JSG> When I run 'sudo hostname blah' and reboot, the hostname goes to 'ubuntu' or doesn't change at all after reboot. Any ideas?
[02:34] <ShdWolf> what I'm trying to do is after autopsy opens via sudo to make it open the page with the launcher is it possible via command?
[02:34] <has564> Stays on blank screen after a successfull install
[02:35] <fgsz> Hey my audio will not work. upon booting and loading gnome the sound alternates on and off but all in all it ends up off.
[02:35] <tripleb> how do I shut down in terminal. I took the shutdown button off my taskbar. What's the proper way to do it??
[02:35] <has564> anyone wanna help me with the ubuntu 10.04 netbook setup?
[02:35] <fgsz> i do notice though, that while it is on it works and looks to me that the driver is loaded and perfect
[02:35] <ShdWolf> tripleb I would sugest sudo killall terminal
[02:35] <well_laid_lawn> sudo shutdown -h now tripleb
[02:35] <tripleb> I'll try shutdown. I think halt looses things
[02:35] <furicle> JSG, edit /etc/hostname
[02:36] <ShdWolf> ok thats a better way
[02:36] <tripleb> OK thanks well_laid_lawn
[02:36] <well_laid_lawn> np

[02:36] <krashed> what is the name of tha package
[02:36] <tigertv69> anyone tmobile web connect 2.0

[02:36] <ShdWolf> are you running gnome or kde
[02:37] <has564> ubuntu 10.04 netbook stays on blank screen after installing and rebooting
[02:37] <krashed> gnome
[02:37] <has564> is this a known error?
[02:37] <ShdWolf> type restricted extras into synaptic
[02:37] <luw> hi i am using gnome standard 10.04 install of ubuntu and would like to view a floppy disk
[02:37] <lorenzocabrini> has564: difficult to say, what hw do you have?
[02:37] <ShdWolf> ubuntu-restricted-extras is the full name if you want to use apt-get
[02:37] <has564> uhh its a acer aspire one d250
[02:37] <scott--> intel atom based netbook?
[02:38] <luw> under /dev i only see fd, no fd0
[02:38] <fgsz> any help on my sound problems?
[02:38] <has564> i have installed ubuntu on a EeePC and it worked fine but acer aspire one d250 is driving me crazy
[02:39] <has564> 3 installations so far and always gets stuck on a blank screen with blinking cursor on a reboot
[02:39] <scott--> ooo
[02:39] <has564> I could really use some help
[02:39] <brian_> hey newbie question - downloaded WiFishFinder zip file unzipped to directory run make command, get errors, like .c:3191: error:
[02:40] <fgsz> has564: press ctrl-alt-f1
[02:40] <scott--> has564: is it a normal installation or a wubi installtion
[02:40] <fgsz> upon booting
[02:40] <tensorpudding> brian_: that's not really a question this channel can answer
[02:41] <has564> um normal installation via USB
[02:41] <HomerPDX75> brian_ , check the readme. Also make sure that you have the package called build essentials installed too
[02:41] <tensorpudding> brian_: maybe you should check the mailing list, forum and/or bugtracker for this piece of software
[02:41] <fgsz> has562: boot usb
[02:41] <fgsz> it should boot into your hd
[02:41] <HomerPDX75> brian_, you might need to run ./configure first before make aswell ( should say in the README _
[02:42] <has564> I tried i changed the priority in BIOS but still goes to the blank screen
[02:42] <brian_> i will check the readme, thanks
[02:42] <has564> should format the HDD first separately and then try the installation again?
[02:42] <tripelb> well well I chose "recovery mode" and now I have no gnome at all. How did this help?  (AND I would like to be able to let those boot-options stay there a little longer. There are 8-10 options and I dont haev time to read them. --- Main Problem: I have the wrong video driver or monitor driver or something similar.
[02:43] <scott--> ok ok
[02:43] <scott--> did you try system - administration - hardware drivers?
[02:43] <dublisk> has564 : I came across the following problem when I installed ubuntu via usb today, the default location for the boot record seems to be sda, and my usb stick was sda so it actually installed the boot to the usb stick instead of where I was installing ubuntu
[02:43] <tripelb> I did before but it told me, scott, that I didnt have the necessary 'stuff' to do that.
[02:43] <dublisk> dunno if that could be the problem
[02:44] <has564> actually no I was aware of that
[02:44] <j0utz> quick question is there a way to completely wipe all the added software off? like a program to apt-get or something?
[02:44] <has564> when i selected the HDD, I used common sense and went with the one that had my 2 OSes installed on it
[02:44] <drew212> Ok I got my boot menu, I can't get my mainline kernel build to boot sucessufully, is there a way i can fix/test it?
[02:45] <has564> I had Vista and 7 installed on my HDD, so I selected that HDD
[02:45] <tensorpudding> j0utz: what do you mean by "added software"
[02:45] <HomerPDX75> brian_, no prob, you might also to try: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:45] <has564> and it mentioned that it will format both of them so im 100% sure that I selected the propper HDD
[02:45] <scott--> oo
[02:45] <tripelb> How do I get the right driver for my nvidia card?
[02:45] <scott--> do you know which nivida card it is?
[02:46] <tripelb> yes I do scott. I will paste it again
[02:46] <j0utz> TenPud : like the Games / Graphic software / Office/ stuff like that. I want just internet/terminal/wifi so i can code
[02:46] <p0rtsniper> hello
[02:47] <p0rtsniper> anyone here?
[02:47] <tripelb> I cant cause I dont know how to get to another terminal window from irssi. If you look above you can find it, do a find for nvidia scott
[02:47] <grendal_prime> hey guys
[02:47] <p0rtsniper> can anyone help me with opengl error's?
[02:47] <has564> come on don't tell me i have to go back to the windows 7 cuz ubuntu isnt installing
[02:47] <tripelb> I mean I am in cli only and I am doing irssi so I cant do any commands.
[02:47] <grendal_prime> i need to share my desktop with some pretty unsavy computer types.  I want to just build a webpage they can to to and then broadcast a flash animation of what im doing...is that possible?
[02:47] <has564> could it be my hw?
[02:48] <tripelb> has564 I've been 2 months at that. I had to install and run XP cause I couldnt get things to install. Now it installed and it's too messed up to use.
[02:48] <undecim> has564: What's your problem? (I was afk)
[02:48] <j0utz> quick question is there a way to completely wipe all the added software off? like a program to apt-get or something?
[02:48] <grendal_prime> like a vnc(with viewonly set)  type deal..but...i mean is there a progarm for doing...like screencasts i guess you would call it
[02:49] <rames> grendal_prime: there is a ~commercial~ product called adobe connect that does that
[02:49] <has564> im installing ubuntu netbook edition onto my acer aspire one d250
[02:49] <grendal_prime> i would ask them to install skype..but then..things get sticky.
[02:49] <has564> after it installs, it reboots
[02:49] <p0rtsniper> grendal_prime how many people are you going to be showing?
[02:49] <tripelb> j0utz: you've been asking that before, no one answered you?
[02:49] <has564> and goes to a blank screen wtih blinking cursor
[02:49] <tensorpudding> j0utz: I think you can uninstall ubuntu-desktop, and you could always switch to a different window manager which has a more minimal environment
[02:49] <grendal_prime> p0rtsniper, just one at a time
[02:49] <grendal_prime> i have comcast so bandwidth on my side is not a big deal and they usually have dsl.
[02:49] <p0rtsniper> grendal_prime you could look @ tinychat.com, they allow a "show desktop" i believe which is quite quick
[02:50] <rames> grendal_prime: i don't know of a real-time open source / free one except for something called vnc / tight vnc that usually has a java display port option (ie: yourcomputer.com:123123 => index.html => foo.java => shows your screen)
[02:50] <p0rtsniper> grendal_prime or you could look into "team viewer"
[02:50] <tripelb> has564 http://ubuntuforums.org is cool because help stays there and you can look up others' issues. Or post yourself.
[02:50] <undecim> has564: Can you hold down the right Shift key when you see the acer logo and hold it about 5-10 seconds, or until you see a menu?
[02:50] <p0rtsniper> is anyone here good with opengl problems?
[02:50] <tensorpudding> one downside to the design of ubuntu's packages is that reversing an install of some packages is hard
[02:51] <has564> im actually in the middle of the reinstallation of ubuntu
[02:51] <has564> see if it works this time if it doesnt then i will try it
[02:51] <JonathanYC> Hi! I have a directory containing all of the required files to start ventrilo, including ventrilo_srv, an executable, and ventrilo_srv.ini, the configuration file.
[02:51] <undecim> has564: okay, before you finish reinstalling...
[02:51] <tripelb> HOW do I get to a cli command place. I am in irssi now. No gui.
[02:51] <JonathanYC> If I attempt to start ventrilo_srv using "./ventrilo_srv" I get a permission denied error.
[02:51] <undecim> has564: I think I know what the problem is...
[02:51] <JonathanYC> HOWEVER, if i try to use sudo to start ventrilo_srv, it tells me that the file does not exist.
[02:51] <JonathanYC> Is sudo changing the working directory?
[02:51] <rames> p0rtsniper: there might be if you asked your question :)
[02:51] <undecim> has564: You are installing from a thumb drive, I take it?
[02:51] <p0rtsniper> JonathanYC: have you tried to chmod the files
[02:52] <has564> yes
[02:52] <JonathanYC> p0rtsniper, yes
[02:52] <ethana2> i'm trying to share a wireless connection over an ethernet port
[02:52] <j0utz> TRIPEL: yea no one answered me.
[02:52] <undecim> has564: Press CTRL+ALT+F1 and type "sudo fdisk -l"
[02:52] <p0rtsniper> rames: i installed warcraft III on my computer using Wine, and when i attempt to run it i get the error
[02:52] <ethana2> do I need a crossover cable or will a normal ethernet cable do?

[02:53] <chr00ted> Hey all. I'm having a problem with tomboy syncing to ubuntu one. It fails to sync & never shows any errors. I have a debug log if you can help
[02:53] <has564> alright
[02:53] <j0utz> HELP QUESTION : is there a way to completely wipe all the added software off? like a program to apt-get or something?
[02:53] <undecim> has564: Try to identify which section is the internal drive by looking at the size or description of the drive
[02:53] <has564> okay and?
[02:53] <JonathanYC> p0rtsniper, now it even says that it is not found!
[02:53] <undecim> has564: The drives will be identified by the files "/dev/sda" and "/dev/sdb"
[02:53] <p0rtsniper> rames: any idea? i'm running an Acer Aspire 5315
[02:54] <p0rtsniper> JonathanYC are you using Wine?
[02:54] <JonathanYC> Even though this is a blatant problem. "ls" shows the file as being there, yet it claims it is not found (sh)
[02:54] <lulu7> j0utz, not sure if you mean to remove a specific application or a series of applications
[02:54] <JonathanYC> p0rtsniper, I'm talking about the server.
[02:54] <rames> p0rtsniper: if people help you fix warcraft you won't get onto irc anymore :P  ... anyway, winehq is probably going to be the best bet and i found a good ubuntu wiki diagnosing gl setup issues ... but this looks verrrry promising: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft
[02:54] <has564> okay
[02:54] <p0rtsniper> JonathanYC: oh
[02:54] <undecim> has564: Let me know which one is which.
[02:54] <NainDesign> hi everyone
[02:54] <p0rtsniper> Rames: it's not a problem with the warcraft III it does it when i use opengl
[02:55] <has564> just give me a sec
[02:55] <rames> p0rtsniper: http://linuxtoolkit.blogspot.com/2009/11/using-glxinfo-to-diagnose-3d.html ?
[02:55] <JonathanYC> does anyone else know a simple answer to this simple problem?
[02:55] <JonathanYC> A file exists, it is executable, the error message (if any) that should appear is not "no such file"
[02:55] <j0utz> lulu7 : Yea i just want all the extra stuff like games/graphics/ every package except what i use   /wireless/terminal/and internet/ ruby.
[02:55] <has564> when I hold down shift key when acer logo comes up
[02:55] <has564> I get a menu
[02:56] <undecim> has564: Actually, come to think of it, it would probably be easier to use "sudo blkid" to get that info
[02:56] <lulu7> j0utz, sudo aptitude remove <program> all I can think of
[02:56] <undecim> has564: Oh, you get the menu? must be a different problem then...
[02:56] <has564> yes i get that menu
[02:56] <has564> has 4 options
[02:56] <undecim> has564: alright, press "e" to edit the first option
[02:56] <has564> alright I pressed e
[02:56] <p0rtsniper> Rames: i get
[02:57] <p0rtsniper> direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose) OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 965GM GEM 20091221 2009Q4 x86/MMX/SSE2
[02:57] <undecim> has564: In the line that starts "linux" remove the word "quiet" from the end, then press ctrl+x
[02:57] <undecim> has564: This time, instead of a blank screen, we should get some useful info
[02:57] <has564> "quiet" before splash?
[02:57] <lulu7> j0utz, you can use dpkg --get-selections to find out what is all installed also. I suggest outputting it to a file ie " > installed.txt"
[02:57] <rames> p0rtsniper: yeah, it's been forever and a day since i've had enough time and money to mess with opengl stuff... maybe trey LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glsxinfo ??
[02:57] <undecim> has564: Yes
[02:57] <JonathanYC> Wow. So no one knows the solution
[02:58] <JonathanYC> to the simple problem
[02:58] <lorenzocabrini> JonathanYC: according to ventrilo home page, root access should not be required
[02:58] <JonathanYC> lorenzocabrini, then why does Ubuntu tell me it does need it?
[02:58] <has564> okay I did that
[02:58] <JonathanYC> In fact, now it won't even admit the file exists!
[02:58] <JonathanYC> This is ridiculous
[02:58] <has564> it shows up with some stuff
[02:58] <undecim> has564: Also, do me a favor. When chatting, put my name somewhere in your message so that my IRC client highlights it for me.
[02:58] <lorenzocabrini> what does ls -l ventrilo_srv say?
[02:58] <FazLeeeN> Hello, for some reasons I need to install some old packages, like linux header 2.6.20 and stuff. apt-get says 404 not found. is there a place where I can find them?
[02:58] <has564> undecim: okay
[02:58] <p0rtsniper> humm
[02:58] <p0rtsniper> can anyone else help me?
[02:59] <has564> undecim does this work?
[02:59] <JonathanYC> lorenzocabrini, It shows the file!
[02:59] <undecim> has564: Yes
[02:59] <lulu7> JonathanYC, you are trying to find ventrillo?
[02:59] <rames> FazLeeeN: there was some stuff on #debian the other day about deocmmin'g mirrors, etc.  i don't know what the right answer is but check #debian's topic
[02:59] <undecim> has564: You backspaced "quiet" and press ctrl+x?
[02:59] <has564> undecim okay I got a bunch of info after doing that
[02:59] <lorenzocabrini> and what permissions?
[02:59] <JonathanYC> lorenzocabrini, specifically: "-rwxr-xr-x 1 yanjchan webmasters 468420 2008-11-18 15:09 ventrilo_srv
[02:59] <JonathanYC> "
[03:00] <JonathanYC> As you can see, everyone has permission to execute.
[03:00] <has564> undecim yes and a whole bunch of stuff showed up
[03:00] <rames> JonathanYC: are you doing ./foo instead of just "foo" ?
[03:00] <undecim> has564: Good. What are the last few lines of text?
[03:00] <lorenzocabrini> rames: he probably has to since the executable is not in $path
[03:00] <JonathanYC> rames: Both of them haev the same result.
[03:00] <JonathanYC> lorenzocabrini, correct
[03:01] <has564> undecim the last line is 2.287876] ata4: DUMMY
[03:01] <rames> JonathanYC: ie: "./ventrilo_srv" ...  what is the output of "ls -l ./ventrilo_srv" ?
[03:01] <lulu7> rames, he just posted that
[03:01] <JonathanYC> -rwxr-xr-x 1 yanjchan webmasters 468420 2008-11-18 15:09 ./ventrilo_srv
[03:01] <JonathanYC> And yet it still refuses to execute.
[03:01] <JonathanYC> This is verging on the point of insanity
[03:01] <jrib> JonathanYC: "refuses to execute" is vague.  Pastebin what you run and the full output
[03:01] <weekly> question: so i just did a release upgrade up to 10.04 from 8.04 on my server, upon restart i am greeted with a GUI login screen (!!?) with very limited pulldown menu options (theres not even a terminal icon) is my upgrade broken? is there a command that i can run to make sure my install is ok?
[03:01] <rames> JonathanYC: "file ./ventrilo_srv" ?
[03:01] <lulu7> JonathanYC, you did the build?
[03:02] <undecim> has564: What else?
[03:02] <jrib> !who | JonathanYC
[03:02] <JonathanYC> jrib: $ ./ventrilo_srv
[03:02] <JonathanYC> -sh: ./ventrilo_srv: not found
[03:02] <JonathanYC> rames:
[03:02] <JonathanYC> ./ventrilo_srv: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped
[03:02] <jrib> JonathanYC: uname -m
[03:02] <JonathanYC> lulu7: No, this build was obtained from the ventrilo web site
[03:02] <JonathanYC> jrib: x86_64
[03:02] <has564> undecim the line before it is 2.287777] ata3: SATA max UDMA/133 abar m1024@0x58344000 port 0x58344200 irq 28
[03:03] <jrib> JonathanYC: does that suggest something to you?
[03:03] <JonathanYC> jrib: That I am running x86_64, and it only supports 32bit?
[03:03] <has564> undecim then the one before it is 2.287705 ata2: DUMMY
[03:03] <Crash1hd> how do I view current cron jobs
[03:03] <lulu7> JonathanYC, and you ran it without the ./ as well as "start" just ran as a normal command
[03:03] <jrib> JonathanYC: sure, you should see if they have a 64bit version.  But try installing ia32-libs and running the command again
[03:03] <JonathanYC> jrib: But why would it be saying the file does not exist?
[03:04] <JonathanYC> lulu7, sorry?
[03:04] <JonathanYC> lulu7, can you rephrase that?
[03:04] <jrib> JonathanYC: it's important that you realize what "it" and "the file" is in your sentence
[03:04] <JonathanYC> jrib: What do you mean?
[03:04] <lulu7> JOnathanYC, you said that you did "sudo start ventrilo...." did you try without the start and sudo?
[03:04] <JonathanYC> jrib: The english language is generous - it allows us to write things in that form of shorthand
[03:04] <jrib> JonathanYC: ventrilo is complaining that some file doesn't exist
[03:04] <JonathanYC> lulu7: I never used "sudo stat ventrilo..."
[03:04] <jrib> JonathanYC: /vague/ things
[03:04] <JonathanYC> jrib: No, sh is complaining that it doesn't exist
[03:05] <has564> undecim does it mean something?
[03:05] <jrib> JonathanYC: you likely aren't running sh as your shell...
[03:05] <undecim> has564: Can you get back to that menu at boot?
[03:05] <JonathanYC> jrib: Ah, my apologies. It turned out your answer was correct. I was confused by the error message.
[03:05] <undecim> has564: i.e. reboot and hold shift again
[03:05] <JonathanYC> And yes, I do believe sh is running as my shell.
[03:05] <has564> undecim alright sure 1 sec
[03:06] <JonathanYC> This is a minimal terminal-only server
[03:06] <tripelb> anyone know how I can get the right video driver for my nvidia card in my new ubuntu install. The recommended one makes things very very big
[03:06] <jrib> JonathanYC: you're probably using bash, only a true masochist would use sh as their interactive shell
[03:06] <jrib> JonathanYC: (sh is dash on ubuntu)
[03:06] <lulu7> tripelb, can you adjust the settings?
[03:06] <opert> trying to make wubi.exe 32 bit. i see on ubuntu website "Yes: either pre-download the appropriate 32 bit ISO manually and place it in the same folder as Wubi.exe or start Wubi with the "--32bit" argument. "
[03:06] <opert> how?
[03:06] <has564> undecim okay im on it
[03:06] <undecim> has564: In the 'linux' line, there is a part that says "root=UUID=[a bunch of numbers and dashes]"
[03:07] <tripelb> lulu7 you mean where? I removed the driver because it made things so big. Now I'm back to what I had before. Oh with the driver, when I went into "monitors" it told me I didnt have the something to do it.
[03:07] <tensorpudding> JonathanYC: what does echo $SHELL return
[03:07] <undecim> has564: replace "UUID=[a bunch of numbers and dashes]" with "/dev/sda1", so that you have "root=/dev/sda1". Then remove the "quiet" option again, and press ctrl+x
[03:07] <lorenzocabrini> JonathanYC: easy to verify - grep $(whoami) /etc/passwd and look at the last field
[03:08] <has564> undecim I edit the first option again?
[03:08] <undecim> has564: Yes
[03:08] <tripelb> 620x380 and 320x240 are my choices lulu7
[03:08] <jrib> JonathanYC: fwiw first time I came across a similar error, it confused me very much too
[03:09] <undecim> has564: And if this gives the same results, then you will need to boot the live CD (or in this case, live USB) to diagnose this further.
[03:09] <Adzy> Hello
[03:09] <has564> undecim do I also delete "ro" before "quiet"?
[03:09] <undecim> has564:  no
[03:10] <FunkyDude> can anyone recommend a good way to test web pages in ie6?
[03:10] <Adzy> upload it and view it :D
[03:10] <has564> undecim okay I replaced it
[03:10] <undecim> FunkyDude: EI4Linux
[03:10] <lukus> FunkyDude, virtualbox
[03:10] <thiebaude> ie6,lol
[03:10] <has564> undecim do I press ctrl x now?
[03:10] <lukus> IE4linux isn't great imo
[03:10] <FunkyDude> i dont think virtual box will work for me, since i dont have a copy of windows
[03:11] <lukus> you can download a crippled version from microsoft
[03:11] <undecim> if you removed quiet, and have root=/dev/sda1, then yes.
[03:11] <lukus> specifically to view IE6
[03:11] <thiebaude> lukus, i agree i tried it brfore its terrible actually
[03:11] <thiebaude> before
[03:11] <jihedamine> Hi, anyone knows if the Logitech 1.3MP Webcam (C210) webcam is supported on ubuntu please ?
[03:11] <ryen> FunkyDude: You can try browsershots.org
[03:11] <has564> undecim exact same thing
[03:12] <FunkyDude> only problem with browsershots is i can't view locally developed pages
[03:12] <lukus> FunkyDude, http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=70868
[03:12] <has564> undecim I deleted that part and quiet and then pressed ctrl x
[03:12] <undecim> okay, we need a live system booted then.
[03:12] <lukus> get the image, install virtualbox
[03:12] <lukus> problem solved
[03:12] <undecim> has564: We need to boot the live usb again then.
[03:12] <lukus> you haven't even needed to pirate windows
[03:12] <FunkyDude> virtual box, the open source one from Sun?
[03:12] <has564> undecim alright give me a sec
[03:13] <lulu7> tripelb, you can use "lspci -v | less" do find your card, then search their website for an compatible linux driver
[03:13] <MadWhiteNerd> Hey folks. Anybody got experience with using Barnacle Wifi Tether for Android with Lucid?
[03:13] <tripelb> lulu7 HERE's my EQ: VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV17[GeForce4 MX 420] --- Dell Ultrascan P991  Optimal preset resolution=1024 x 768 or 1280 x 1024 at 85 Hz. Highest preset resolution=1600 x 1200 at 85 Hz --- new 10.04 install.
[03:14] <has564> undecim alright It is booting into ubuntu
[03:14] <wizz> i try to download yahoo mail using evolution, but it wont accept my pass anyway.
[03:15] <has564> undecim through USB live not the HDD
[03:15] <FunkyDude> lukus, those ie images, they include a winxp image too?
[03:15] <tripelb> lulu7 I've been at this for an hour, at refining this install all day. I installed it yesterday after months of work. It's a Dell. Not something obscure. I've been running windows. I didnt want to when I got the SATA HD but Ubuntu wouldnt install and Windows did.
[03:15] <lulu7> tripeld, But it does not allow you change the sizes in monitors settings
[03:15] <has564> undecim okay what do I do now it is booted from USB live
[03:15] <undecim> has564: Alright, you should choose the "Try Ubuntu" option
[03:15] <has564> undecim yes I did im on the interface now
[03:16] <undecim> has564: I forgot to mention. You will need to connect the Ubuntu computer to the internet if possible
[03:16] <HB2> hi, sombody is using empathy 2.30? Because  i'm using this version and "send file" option is disabled :S .. ¿ Sombody know about this?
[03:16] <Squarism> anyone familiar with "gnome commander"
[03:16] <undecim> You can use a thumb drive for this if it's inconvenient though.
[03:16] <tripelb> lulu7 I've already installed the recommended driver and the betters got very BIG. That's what I posted at the beginning.
[03:16] <lulu7> tripeld, And nothing on the Hardware Drivers?
[03:16] <MadWhiteNerd> Anyone familiar with using Barnacle on an Android Phone with Lucid? I can connect with a Windows 7 Machine but not with a Lucid machine.
[03:17] <undecim> You need to download the boot info script from http://sourceforge.net/projects/bootinfoscript/
[03:17] <tripelb> And nothing on the Hardware Drivers? I get the one I installed that made it really really big.
[03:17] <has564> undecim it says device not ready in wireless networks
[03:17] <lulu7> tripeld, It is not allowing you to change your screen resolution though. Thus the issue
[03:17] <undecim> has564: Alright, we can use another USB drive for this if you have one.
[03:18] <triplc> hi all
[03:18] <has564> undecim yes give me a min i will go grab one
[03:18] <Roasted> anybody know offhand how to recover grub2 with a livecd? Each guide I find is incredibly different from one another.
[03:18] <jfer> hi i was wondering how to hide a user account from the login screen
[03:18] <undecim> Roasted: you know how to chroot?
[03:18] <Roasted> undecim, I'm quite familiar with the command line. I just forget how to recover grub2.
[03:19] <has564> decim okay I got that script on the USB
[03:19] <undecim> Roasted: well, update-grub will fix the configuration, or grub-install will fix the MBR
[03:19] <undecim> Roasted: What's wrong with grub?
[03:19] <xangua> wizz: i believe you need to pay to have yahoo mail + pop/imap
[03:20] <has564> undecim i have the other usb with the script plugged in
[03:20] <triplc> What is the most "slim" solution to forward all email to smarhost? Currently in my Linux box, i want to forward all emails (which are basically things send to Root@LocalHost) via a smarthost. I use "relayhost = ..." in /etc/postfix/main.cf. However I think using postfix only for relaying i too "expensive". Which package I can use to replace the default postfix ?
[03:20] <FunkyDude> which virtual box do you guys use?
[03:20] <Roasted> undecim, I had a problem with Win 7/Ubuntu, and I recovered Win 7's MBR which overwrote grub.
[03:20] <Roasted> undecim, so I need to get grub back.
[03:20] <HB2> hi, sombody is using empathy 2.30? Because  i'm using this version and "send file" option is disabled :S .. ¿ Sombody know about this?
[03:21] <undecim> has564: Alright, you need to copy the script into the home folder of the live system
[03:21] <KukuNut> FunkyDude: vbox 3.2.8
[03:21] <KukuNut> FunkyDude: vbox 3.2.8
[03:21] <lulu7> tripled, there's a config file you can edit, to specify your screen options but I cannot dig into it accurately. Maybe someone else can help
[03:21] <undecim> has564: Then, you will need to open a terminal and run some commands...
[03:21] <mr_chris> FunkyDude: I use the proprietary version. I use the USB support often.
[03:22] <mr_chris> FunkyDude: 3.2.8
[03:22] <has564> undecim okay i transferred it
[03:22] <undecim> Roasted: Mount your partition somewhere, and run "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/root/fs/mount/point/ /dev/sda"
[03:22] <Izinucs> FunkyDude: the one from their site.. it has usb support and is the latest stable build
[03:22] <Roasted> undecim, yeah thats definitely not what I did before when I recovered it...
[03:22] <Roasted> I wish I saved the link
[03:22] <undecim> has564: To the home directory on the live system?
[03:22] <mr_chris> FunkyDude: Just subscribe to their repo. That way it will always be updated.
[03:22] <lukus> FunkyDude, yep - they do
[03:22] <FunkyDude> okay, and i can use that (vbox) to open the ie6 image and such?
[03:22] <lukus> yep
[03:23] <has564> undecim the home directory is the "ubuntu" directory is it?
[03:23] <undecim> has564: Yup
[03:23] <lukus>   you might need to convert them .. but virtual machine images are generally pretty portable
[03:23] <mr_chris> Yep. You just have to pop in the XP CD and let it do it's‌ thing.
[03:23] <Izinucs> FunkyDude: yes.. but once installed you still have to "register" it..
[03:23] <mr_chris> Or transfer an existing image. They are very portable.
[03:23] <has564> undecim yes I did that
[03:23] <lukus> FunkyDude, http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
[03:23] <mr_chris> FunkyDude: Yes. But once you have it installed you can run it on VirtualBox on any machine and it won't know the difference.
[03:24] <undecim> has564: Open a terminal and paste this, and press enter: chmod a+x boot_info_script055.sh
[03:24] <lukus> ^^ there are specific up to date repos there
[03:24] <FunkyDude> ok great, so i'll go check it out
[03:24] <Hedonista> had a question is there a bug going through the ubuntu package tree atm with xorg?
[03:24] <FunkyDude> i tried looking for virtual box in the synaptic package repository but it wasn't there
[03:25] <lukus> no space maybe?
[03:25] <renedox> FunkyDude: look for virtualbox-ose
[03:25] <xangua> FunkyDude: sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose
[03:25] <has564> undecim okay I did that
[03:25] <undecim> has564: If that works fine, do the same for this: sudo boot_info_script055.sh > bootscript.out
[03:25] <Izinucs> FunkyDude: it's either sun-virtualbox or oracle-virtualbox..
[03:25] <KukuNut> Roasted: if you are in live-cd do update-grub and then grub-install /dev/sda if that is your primary drive. then remove live-cd and then reboot to your ubuntu install then do update-grub, grub-install again
[03:25] <Eryn_1983_FL> hey peeps
[03:25] <rewq> Can someone direct me to info on how to upgrade compiz to 0.9.0 or 0.9.2.  I've a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.0.4 and already used the GUI Ubuntu Software Center to install the extras, which seems to have installed an earlier version of compiz, unless I'm mistaken.  I prefer using the cli in general, btw.  ;)
[03:25] <lukus> it's worth installing the unofficial repos imo
[03:25] <Roasted> KukuNut, thanks bro, second though... I just found a guide that looks like what I had. trying it now.
[03:25] <tripelb> how do I stop a print in progress, say it's spitting out page after page.??
[03:25] <lukus> you'll get a newer version
[03:25] <Eryn_1983_FL> i did that  encrypt home directory on my netbook and um i changed my password on my account now i am getting errors loggin  saying it cant make  files and folder in /home
[03:26] <Eryn_1983_FL> how do i update it?
[03:26] <lukus> tripelb, unplug it
[03:26] <lukus> (from power socket)
[03:26] <KukuNut> Roasted: np
[03:26] <undecim> has564: There should now be a file called "bootscript.out" in the ubuntu directory. I need you to get the contents of that file pasted to http://paste.ubuntu.com, then give me the link to it.
[03:26] <xangua> rewq: 0.9.0 is not stable, might be better ask in #compiz
[03:26] <has564> undecim it says "sudo: boot_info_script055.sh: command not found"
[03:26] <lfaraone> If I currently use encrypted home and I reinstall Ubuntu how can I access my encrypted files?
[03:27] <undecim> has564: Sorry, that should have been sudo ./boot_info_script055.sh > bootscript.out
[03:27] <undecim> has564: I left out the ./
[03:27] <rewq> xangua: thanks... didn't snap that they'd have a channel... duh ;)
[03:27] <triplc> What is the most "slim" solution to forward all email to smarhost? Currently in my Linux box, i want to forward all emails (which are basically things send to Root@LocalHost) via a smarthost. I use "relayhost = ..." in /etc/postfix/main.cf. However I think using postfix only for relaying i too "expensive". Which package I can use to replace the default postfix ? (<--- resend, please answer if you know the solution, thanks)
[03:27] <mr_chris> triplb: Open the print manager and delete the job. Then hit the cancel button on your printer.
[03:28] <has564> undecim I now get "bootscript.out" and "RESULTS.txt"
[03:28] <undecim> has564: Oh... I guess the bootinfo script makes a results file itself now?
[03:28] <undecim> has564: cool XD
[03:28] <has564> undecim idk do you need both files?
[03:28] <tripelb> lukus, unplug it? then when I plug it back in the file will just continue from where it left off.
[03:29] <undecim> has564: See that's in bootscript.out
[03:29] <has564> undecim I see, so you just need results.txt?
[03:29] <undecim> has564: If there's just something like "Writing results to RESULTS.txt" or "done" or simple stuff along those lines, just give me RESULTS.txt
[03:29] <Squarism> Gah.. why doesnt "MV" just move files? When i do mv on a big file it seems to copy it?!!
[03:29] <lfaraone> Squarism: it does.
[03:29] <has564> undecim nope nothing like that it doesnt say anyting it just creates those two files
[03:30] <mr_chris> Squarism: mv copies the file, then deletes it from its original location.
[03:30] <lfaraone> Squarism: (move it, that is)
[03:30] <tripelb> mr_chris: Umm and the location of this print manager is not in system preferences - so where might it be?
[03:30] <undecim> has564: RESULTS.txt should be all I need.
[03:30] <has564> undecim alright give me a sec
[03:30] <lfaraone> mr_chris: mv does *not* copy the file, unless the source and destination are on different devices.
[03:31] <undecim> Squarism: mv actually does two operations if you are doing it between two filesystems: Copy the file over, then delete the original. For a large file, the first part will take a while.
[03:31] <mr_chris> Should be able to double click on the printer in the print manager and find it there. If not, just go to http://localhost:631 in your web browser and do it from the cups admin.
[03:31] <mr_chris> lfaraone: Ah. Thanks for correcting me.
[03:32] <Squarism> lfaraone, mr_chris, undecim: Well isnt there a way to just rewire the filesystem? Like on windows.. mv is super fast
[03:32] <Squarism> ...i guess it just changes a file pointer
[03:32] <Squarism> or similar
[03:32] <undecim> Squarism: What do you mean? Are you moving files on the same filesystem?
[03:32] <lfaraone> Squarism: that's what Linux does, unless they're on different filesystems...
[03:32] <Squarism> undecim, yep
[03:33] <wolf23> help please! why update manager not downloading any packages?
[03:33] <undecim> Squarism: It should be just as fast then...
[03:33] <KukuNut> or mv just change file pointer in the fat if in the same filesystem
[03:33] <undecim> Squarism: Unless it's an encrypted home dir and moving between that and the rest of the filesystem.
[03:33] <has564> undecim this is weird its not copying the file back to my USB from home directory
[03:33] <Squarism> lfaraone, i move stuff from /home/myhome/sometmpfolder -> /var/lib/existingfolder/
[03:34] <undecim> has564: Are you copying it to the correct USB?
[03:34] <lfaraone> Squarism: okay. if you're using encrypted home, they're different filesystems...
[03:34] <has564> yes im let me try something else
[03:34] <Squarism> lfaraone, gah.. i use encrypted... gah.. =/
[03:35] <rewq> Windows has 'restore points', Apple has the 'time machine'... I've come to rely on those things to roll back my ineptitude... what can I use in ubuntu?
[03:35] <undecim> Squarism: Well, there's nothing you can do about that then. It will just take a while.
[03:36] <has564> undecim okay I got the results file on this PC
[03:36] <Squarism> what is a good folder to put data shared between many users on ubuntu machine?
[03:36] <has564> undecim what do I do now
[03:36] <Squarism> ...like movies and music
[03:36] <undecim> has564: I need the contents pasted to http://paste.ubuntu.com
[03:36] <lfaraone> Squarism: /srv/.
[03:36] <has564> undecim okay I did
[03:36] <Squarism> lfaraone, sounds so non-user =D
[03:37] <has564> undecim http://paste.ubuntu.com/498880/
[03:37] <lfaraone> Squarism: http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#SRVDATAFORSERVICESPROVIDEDBYSYSTEM
[03:37] <KukuNut> Squarism: /public/
[03:37] <undecim> has564: k, give me a minute to look through it
[03:38] <lfaraone> Squarism: so something like /srv/share/
[03:38] <has564> undecim okay I have to be afk i will brb in 5 mins I will post message when I will brb
[03:38] <Squarism> what about /usr/share/public ?
[03:39] <Squarism> ... /srv seems to be data for "services"
[03:39] <Crash1hd> OK so when I type mail in my ubuntu it says that I have over 2000 msgs how do I get those in an easy to read format?
[03:39] <Crash1hd> sorry it says 6470 msgs
[03:39] <lfaraone> Squarism: that's reserved for the package management system.
[03:40] <xangua> Crash1hd: explain yourself 'when I type mail'
[03:40] <Crash1hd> xangua, into shell
[03:40] <has564> undecim alright I am back
[03:40] <xangua> Crash1hd: are you using a terminal mail client¿
[03:41] <Crash1hd> it retuns "/var/mail/crash1hd": 6470 mesages 201 new 6470 unread
[03:41] <wasnik> hi guys ubuntu does not recognize my soundcard aplay, lshw, lspci dnot list my soundcard
[03:41] <Squarism> Gah.. ive switched to desktop ubuntu from all my life windows at age 35... its 50% love and 50% hell
[03:41] <Crash1hd> xangua, when I open up terminal it says that I have unread mail so I typed mail and it list a bunch of msgs and that
[03:42] <Izinucs> Squarism: it get's better.. hang in there. :)
[03:42] <scott_ino> Squarism, its a heck of a lot easier than it was 5 years ago ;)
[03:42] <Crash1hd> xangua, I figure there has to be an easier way to go through the messages then through terminal
[03:42] <lfaraone> Squarism: according to the FHS, /srv or something in /var/local/ would be best.
[03:42] <undecim> has564: Well, nothing fishy about your boot setup...
[03:42] <Izinucs> Crash1hd: did you ever install mutt or something similar?
[03:43] <has564> undecim so what do you suggest the problem is then? Also let you know the previous win7 that I had on it was the starter edition it came with
[03:43] <Crash1hd> Izinucs, I am new to ubuntu so I would have to say unless it came with ubuntu then no
[03:44] <undecim> has564: I notice you have three disks... Do you have an external drive with Vista/7 Installed?
[03:44] <lfaraone> Crash1hd: do you want a CLI mail client or a GUI?
[03:44] <Izinucs> Crash1hd: strange.. I have a fresh install and when typing that in my terminal .. I only get suggestions on what to install for that. Did you use the alternate install cd or the live cd?
[03:44] <Squarism> terminal+utils, package system, filesystem, parts of gnome - perfect... standby/resume, missing good UI parts of windows, lack of good replacements for nice windows software, external monitor for laptop ... NOT PERFECT
[03:44] <scott_ino> lfaraone, he doesn't understand the cli
[03:44] <has564> undecim no I have nothing installed on this netbook other than ubuntu netbook edition
[03:44] <Crash1hd> Izinucs, normal install
[03:45] <Squarism> Izinucs, yeah i guess
[03:45] <Izinucs> lfaraone: his terminal reports he has lots of mail when he types "mail" in the terminal
[03:45] <Crash1hd> lfaraone, what is CLI?
[03:45] <lfaraone> scott_ino: okay, then he probably wants to use the "maildir" or similar option of Evolution or thunderbird.
[03:45] <lfaraone> Crash1hd: the terminal.
[03:45] <scott_ino> Izinucs, no it doesn't it says possible packages to install
[03:45] <scott_ino> he probably instaled one
[03:45] <has564> undecim I did have two OSs installed before but they got wiped out by the ubuntu format
[03:45] <Crash1hd> lfaraone, ahh no GUI
[03:45] <undecim> has564: Well, the boot info script is showing 3 physical disks. The internal drive, the USB drive we booted from, and a third one that I can't account for.
[03:45] <Squarism> scott_ino, true... i've done some attempts through the years
[03:45] <Squarism> lfaraone, /var/local i like
[03:46] <Izinucs> Squarism: it's a learning curve.. the more you know .. the more you know you don't know ... all stuff that was hidden with Windows for the most part.
[03:46] <has564> undecim oh wait it could be the other USB
[03:46] <undecim> has564: A 2 GB disk, that looks like it has windows 7 or windows Vista installed to it.
[03:46] <has564> undecim when i created that results file I had that Usb plugged in, and yes it has winXP installed on it
[03:46] <undecim> has564: Did you have that in the computer when you booted it earlier?
[03:46] <has564> undecim no
[03:46] <scott_ino> Squarism, what are you doing in /var anywas? most stuff for the most part you don't have to mess with
[03:46] <undecim> has564: Okay, that's not the issue then...
[03:46] <wasnik> hi guys ubuntu does not recognize my soundcard aplay, lshw, lspci dnot list my soundcard
[03:47] <has564> undecim could it be related to drivers or something?
[03:47] <Izinucs> scott_ino: my terminal says "mail is contained in the following packages" .. and lists 2
[03:47] <undecim> has564: If that were the case, the live system would likely not boot.
[03:47] <scott_ino> Izinucs, correct
[03:48] <scott_ino> that's normal
[03:48] <has564> undecim what about the hardware? Could it be that it won't boot anything other than Win7 starter?
[03:48] <scott_ino> sorry might have been talking to the other person
[03:48] <Squarism> scott_ino, i just want directions where to put archives, mp3's and movies to be shared among users... one place... non system files
[03:48] <undecim> has564: Again, if that were the case, the live system wouldn't boot.
[03:48] <undecim> has564: What model did you say your netbook was?
[03:48] <has564> undecim so, acer aspire one d250 10.1 inch
[03:49] <has564> undecim im unsure if its d250 or d150, but it has 1GB of ram and 160GB HDD
[03:50] <Crash1hd> lfaraone, In that case I would prefer GUI
[03:50] <undecim> has564: Well, I can't find any model-specific problems with either of those two...
[03:51] <undecim> has564: You've installed Ubuntu twice now?
[03:51] <has564> undecim yes
[03:51] <has564> undecim but each time it formatted the internal HDD
[03:51] <undecim> has564: Is this 10.04 or the 10.04.1?
[03:52] <has564> undecim 10.04
[03:52] <undecim> has564: Okay, give me a moment..
[03:53] <candoman> I'm having issues after installing 10.04 on a laptop and looking for help
[03:53] <quietone> still trying to connect via phone over bluetooth. Blueman says it can't get an ip address. How do I go about fixing it?
[03:54] <undecim> has564: Open a terminal and run "md5sum /cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs"
[03:55] <undecim> has564: I get "f31321cf8c7ee95ba47fac178d7fdbab  /mnt/casper/filesystem.squashfs" compare this to yours
[03:55] <undecim> has564: You should have "f31321cf8c7ee95ba47fac178d7fdbab  /cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs"
[03:55] <Crash1hd> Is there a way to setup the default ubuntu mail client to recieve system msgs?
[03:56] <has564> undecim no I get e68b2efb89b5ac3ab40e8fd8bbee6519 /cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs
[03:56] <undecim> has564: Okay, let me double check my ISO md5....
[03:57] <undecim> has564: This USB was setup with "ubuntu-10.04-desktop-i386.iso" correct?
[03:57] <Squarism> is there some lucid friendly way to get windows tiling into gnome?
[03:57] <undecim> has564: Aww, crap, you're using netbook, aren't you?
[03:57] <has564> undecim yes im
[03:57] <Squarism> ...that doesnt require me to recompile kernel and spend 3 hours googleing
[03:57] <has564> undecim I used "ubuntu-10.04-netbook-i386"
[03:58] <tripelb> how do I find out where xorg.config is?
[03:58] <jenue> guys, how do i search hidden files like .svn in a folder?
[03:58] <jenue> i want to delete it
[03:58] <renedox> tripelb: /etc/X11/xorg.conf I think
[03:59] <Roasted_> Question about Evolution - I set up google calendar in it earlier on my laptop and I had "Google" as a calendar option. On my desktop, I don't have that. Both are Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit. Any ideas?
[03:59] <undecim> has564: well, no worries then, there is another way to check this... in a terminal, run "dmesg" and see if any of the last several lines mention "SQUASHFS"
[04:00] <Squarism>  scott_ino, so you think /var/local was a bad place for such files?
[04:00] <jags> I just rebooted and now my workspace switcher does nothing, and the usual shortcuts like ctrl+alt+mouse doesn't spin my desktop with compiz, I can use meta+e to access other desktops only?
[04:00] <jags> any ideas?
[04:00] <Izinucs> Roasted_: let's see if I understand correctly.. 2 machines.. both the same OS release.. you setup google calendar in Evo in one then looked for it in the other?
[04:01] <undecim> jags: Make sure the compiz cube is enabled. You have compizconfig-settings-manager installed?
[04:01] <has564> undecim nope nothing that mentions SQUASHFS
[04:01] <jags> undecim, yes i just disabled and enabled it to be sure
[04:01] <has564> undecim it does a whole bunch of device scans and etc.
[04:02] <jags> I can't access the other desktops at all with the normal gnome workspace switcher
[04:02] <has564> undecim is that a problem?
[04:02] <candoman> hey guys...anyone know of issues running ubuntu 10.4 on a machine with an intel core i3 processor?
[04:02] <Squarism> are there any plans on making stuff in linux more consistant? For recurisive behaviour chown uses -R and rm  uses -r
[04:02] <undecim> has564:
[04:02] <undecim> has564: no
[04:02]  * undecim is thinking
[04:02] <Squarism> ...such things irritate the hell out of me
[04:03] <Roasted_> Izinucs, no. I have a laptop and desktop. Both Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit. Both evolution. Both looking to point to the same google calendar.
[04:03] <tripelb> renedox: tripelb: /etc/X11/xorg.conf  oh I looked there. It is absent. That could be why my typface is so huge. (new 10.04 install) HERE's my EQ: VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV17[GeForce4 MX 420] --- Dell Ultrascan P991  Optimal preset resolution=1024 x 768 or 1280 x 1024 at 85 Hz. Highest preset resolution=1600 x 1200 at 85 Hz
[04:03] <Roasted_> Izinucs, I added the calendar on evolution on my laptop. Under add calendar, I ahve "Google" as an option. On my desktop, I do not have this option.
[04:03] <Izinucs> Roasted_: and one works and the other doesn't?
[04:03] <Roasted_> Izinucs, basically. I dont have that google option on the desktop. Not sure why.
[04:03] <Roasted_> Izinucs, I tried adding a calendar "on the web" but nothing worked right. I wish I had that google option like my laptop mysteriously has
[04:03] <lfaraone> Squarism: rm accepts -R and -r.
[04:04] <tripelb> I can't sit any more. It hurts too much. PM me if there is a message in the channel and Ill look for it.
[04:04] <has564> undecim okay should I just leave it and go back to win7? I mean this won't be a huge issue for me if it seems like a dead end in this case
[04:04] <Antyx> Anybody here have Server 10.04 using a wireless card?  Can't seem to get it recognized by the OS....
[04:04] <undecim> has564: Alright, I want to try something tricky that might not work...
[04:04] <renedox> tripelb: it should be there, try reinstall?
[04:04] <has564> undecim well lets try it
[04:04] <noisewaterphd> Roasted: did you install both systems at the same time? Is the desktop up to date on packages? use apt to update evo on the desktop
[04:04] <Izinucs> Roasted_: strange.. search synaptic for "google" and see if there's a plugin you're missing.. something like evolution-google-calendar ..not sure if there's one there.. but worth looking for.
[04:04] <Izinucs> Roasted_: or google-calendar-evo
[04:04] <undecim> has564: Okay, we need to get back to that boot menu, but with the live USB drive plugged in.
[04:04] <tripelb> reinstall what? where? I can put the nvidia driver back but without the config file it is bad.
[04:05] <jags> ok my bad I fixed it lol
[04:05] <tripelb> what would I want to have in the file?
[04:05] <logankoester> I have one startup application that is dependent on another being ready for it, what's the best way to handle that?
[04:05] <has564> undecim okay im on it
[04:05] <logankoester> Put it all as one command with a ;?
[04:05] <logankoester> or maybe a sleep in there?
[04:05] <Maser> "
[04:06] <jags> Can anyone help me with a problem I'm having with mpd, I asked the folks on #mpd but they didn't respond?
[04:06] <kain> hi, does anyone have a suggestion for how to be able to connect remotely to my other ubuntu machine even after a restart and not connected with a user?
[04:06] <has564> undecim i held down shift but it just went to the USB live, Do i need to go to BIOS and disable it?
[04:06] <Roasted_> Izinucs, bingo.
[04:06] <Roasted_> Izinucs, look at you being a genius :P
[04:06] <Izinucs> tripelb: if you don't have a nvidia driver showing in system>admin>hardware driver you'll need to look in synaptic and install the correct driver.. then look again in system>admin>hardware driver.
[04:07] <undecim> has564: I think either F9 or F12 lets you select a boot device. Make sure you hold shift immediately after pressing enter to select the hard drive.
[04:07] <Izinucs> Roasted_: google is tricky.. I finally got calendar working on kmail (kontact)
[04:07] <Izinucs> Roasted_: actually kalendar... not kmail
[04:07] <MalelDraconis> Is there a way to input multiple commands in Terminal?  I'm coverting a bunch of .mp4 files to .wav files, and I'm getting tired of doing it one at a time..
[04:07] <Roasted_> Izinucs, nice. Yeah I was on thunderbird for a long time but evolution just works so much nicer with work (exchange server) and integrating google calendars. Thunderbird leaves a lot to be desired if you want a full bore email/organizer client.
[04:08] <Ryen> MalelDraconis: Yes type && between commands.
[04:08] <Roasted_> but hey were good to go now. thanks Izinucs
[04:08] <Izinucs> Roasted_: yea.. been there.. I always added the lightning component.. I do like "Kontact" over Evo though.. but it's a kde app.
[04:08] <MalelDraconis> Ryen, Thanks.
[04:08] <logankoester> gnome-terminal
[04:08] <logankoester> ssh paulthewalrus.com
[04:08] <logankoester> ocean0fDreams
[04:08] <logankoester> sc[A
[04:08] <Ryen> MalelDraconis: No problem.
[04:08] <FloodBot4> logankoester: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:09] <logankoester> well shit, now i have to change my pw
[04:09] <logankoester> thanks macro keys
[04:09] <has564> undecim I didn't quite understand, u want me to boot from the internal hard drive while the USB is plugged in?
[04:09] <undecim> has564: Yes
[04:09] <FunkyDude> after i install virtual box, and download the winxp-ie6.exe from microsofts site, how do i load it (the winxp file)?
[04:10] <has564> undecim okay did it im now on the menu
[04:10] <has564> undecim and I have the usb plugged in
[04:10] <Izinucs> FunkyDude: that's just internet explorer.. not the full winxp OS.. so.. you can't install it.. virtualbox is for installing a full OS
[04:10] <undecim> has564: Now editing the first option agian... the two lines 'linux' and 'initrd', both include a file name as the second word. Something like "/boot/vmlinuz-version" and "/boot/initrd-version"...
[04:11] <FunkyDude> so if i don't have a copy of windows, then i can't run ie6?
[04:11] <has564> undecim yes thats correct
[04:11] <has564> undecim i have those
[04:11] <Izinucs> FunkyDude: right.. do you need it for some .net or direct X apps on the web?
[04:12] <FunkyDude> i wanted to use it to test the web pages i build
[04:12] <undecim> has564: change the 'linux' file to "(hd1,1)/casper/vmlinuz" and the 'initrd' file to "(hd1,1)/casper/initrd.lz", then remove both "quiet" and "splash"
[04:12] <Izinucs> FunkyDude: there is a project called ie4linux which would work for testing web pages.. that's what it's for.
[04:12] <FunkyDude> k, i'll check that out
[04:13] <undecim> has564: Then ctrl+x to boot
[04:13] <has564> undecim so u want me to remove the part "linux /boot/vmlinuz"?
[04:13] <has564> undecim and "initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-21-generic"?
[04:14] <undecim> has564: Leave the linux and initrd words.
[04:14] <has564> undecim and remove everything else?
[04:14] <undecim> has564: SHould look like "linux (hd1,1)/casper/vmlinuz root=[some numbers and dashes] ro"
[04:15] <undecim> has564: And the initrd line should be "initrd (hd1,1)/casper/initrd.lz"
[04:16] <dreux> hey I have a questions
[04:17] <dreux> Im trying to install windows 7, but it doesn't read the disc on boot for some reason
[04:17] <Izinucs> dreux: ##windows for windows questions.. or maybe you computer knows better than to install win7
[04:17] <dreux> Im using ubuntu though . . .
[04:18] <h00k> dreux: That issue isn't Ubuntu related
[04:18] <dreux> I think thats why its not reading the disc
[04:18] <dreux> it works on any non ubuntu computer
[04:18] <Izinucs> dreux: but you're trying to install windows... and .. if ubuntu is loaded then it will read the disk but won't let it run.
[04:18] <has564> undecim okay did it..
[04:18] <h00k> dreux: Ubuntu doesn't prevent your computer to boot from a CD.
[04:18] <undecim> has564: Just to let you know, this will probably fail, and even if it works, your system will be buggy and unstable until we make the permanent fix
[04:18] <undecim> has564: Alright, pressed ctrl+x?
[04:19] <has564> undecim yes
[04:19] <mhaz> dreux:bios set to boot from cd?
[04:19] <undecim> has564: Okay... anything interesting happen?
[04:19] <dreux> yea I set it to do that mhaz and it still doesn't
[04:19] <has564> undecim it gets stuck on a new line of codes
[04:19] <undecim> has564: That sounds good :)
[04:19] <undecim> has564: What do these say?
[04:19] <kain> is it possible to connect remotely to my other ubuntu machine without having to physically be in front of it to login to a user to be able to go into it?
[04:20] <mhaz> can you boot from other cd's?
[04:20] <h00k> dreux: potentially check #hardware, but Ubuntu doesn't control what your BIOS boots from.
[04:20] <has564> undecim it reads something like agpgart-intel 000:00:00.0: AGP aperture is 256M @
[04:20] <lazyPower> kain: you can get CLI via installing the openssh-server package, or you can google for Ubuntu Remote Desktop
[04:20] <dreux> No I can't mhaz, but before I had ubuntu I could boot from both cd and usb
[04:20] <has564> undecim and then one before it same thing but after 0000:00:00.0: it says detected 7932k stolen memory
[04:20] <IdleOne> inability to boot a windows cd is not an Ubuntu issue. Please ask in ##windows
[04:21] <kain> lazyPower, thanks
[04:21] <undecim> has564: anything else?
[04:21] <has564> undecim same thing again before it but says Intel 945GME Chipset
[04:21] <has564> undecim and then before it says ata4: DUMMY
[04:21] <lazyPower> kain: anytime.
[04:21] <mhaz> ubuntu wouldn't alter bios- check the bios settings again and make sure cd is before hd boot
[04:22] <has564> undecim and then before it says ata3: SATA max UDMA
[04:22] <Squarism> what version of of mysql should i download "RedHat Enterprise Linux X RPM", where X i 3,4 or 5 ?
[04:22] <dreux> Yea I did that mhaz I even set for cd to be loaded first on boot. I know the disc works to because it loaded on 2 other computers on boot
[04:23] <has564> undecim does this mean anything? I dont have much time left
[04:23] <h00k> dreux: The issue is not an Ubuntu issue. Verify your CD isn't bad.
[04:23] <undecim> has564: Well, it's failing then at roughly the same place...
[04:23] <mhaz> i'm at a loss here- your cd drive works otherwise?
[04:23] <h00k> *CDROM
[04:23] <undecim> has564: I'm officially stumped.
[04:24] <has564> undecim lol its alright I guess I will go back to win7 starter
[04:24] <madfox> hey running ubuntu 10.04 on an older comp, but it wont detect any CDs in, any help as to where I should look to fix this?
[04:24] <has564> undecim thanks for all the help
[04:24] <undecim> has564: no problem
[04:24] <has564> undecim also FYI this problem never exited when i tried it on EeePC
[04:24] <dreux> yes mhaz. the CD isn't bad h00k it works on other computers that isnt ubuntu
[04:24] <has564> undecim on EeePC this installation went successfully
[04:24] <undecim> has564: If you were really set on getting Ubuntu on this netbook, ask me again tomorrow after I've had some down time. I might have had an epiphany by then.
[04:25] <h00k> dreux: Check the drive itself. The issue is not Ubuntu. Ubuntu does not control your BIOS.
[04:25] <IdleOne> dreux: then the cd drive could be failing, try booting a Ubuntu live cd to test
[04:25] <has564> undecim okay I will try to come here at this time
[04:25] <undecim> has564: Or post on the forums (with a pic of the errors if possible), and a lot more people will have a chance to see it.
[04:25] <mhaz> It seems like a hardware issue, I'm not much help there. Sorry
[04:26] <dreux> It shows the cd and the files on my computer. however it doesn't boot with it.
[04:26] <IdleOne> dreux: take it back to the store, or call Microsoft and see what the return policy is.
[04:27] <IdleOne> in any case Ubuntu does NOT prevent windows cd from booting
[04:27] <nathan406> greatings
[04:27] <wasnik> ubuntu does not detect my soundcards, aplay, lshw, lspci dont detect my soundcard please help
[04:28] <Doyle> Nothing software or OS related can prevent a bootable cd/dvd from booting in capable hardware. It it doesn't boot, it's BIOS/Hardware related... most usually user related though.
[04:28] <Squarism> what version of rpm does ubuntu run?
[04:29] <xangua> Squarism: ubuntu doesn't use rpm, used deb
[04:29] <IdleOne> Squarism: it doesn't
[04:29] <xangua> uses*
[04:29] <logankoester> gnome-terminal
[04:29] <logankoester> sorry, messing around with my keyboard :/
[04:29] <logankoester> I'll close this chan for now
[04:30] <undecim> wasnik: Does your sound card show up in "sudo lshw"?
[04:30] <undecim> wasnik: You probably want to use "sudo lshw | less" to check (for search functionality, scrolling, etc)
[04:31] <wasnik> udecim, it does not show up on lshw either
[04:31] <howzdis> hi all
[04:31] <undecim> wasnik: Do you know your sound card model?
[04:31] <wasnik> udecim i have a conexant smart audio card

[04:34] <madfox> ubuntu doesnt want to read any CDs I put in, help?
[04:34] <nathan406> quietone: that dont work
[04:34] <undecim> wasnik: Are you sure it's physically installed properly, compatable with your mobo, etc?
[04:34] <KipMacy> do you think running squid3 locally on my laptop, and using it for my local web browser, is worth it?
[04:34] <nathan406> quietone: its like once i login the mouse pad just become disabled
[04:34] <wasnik> udecim, it worked propely with windows
[04:34] <undecim> wasnik: Because it should show up in lspci and lshw, even if you don't have drivers.
[04:35] <wasnik> udecim, are u sure about that
[04:35] <undecim> wasnik: Just to be sure, can I get a pastebin of lspci?
[04:35] <howzdis> guys can somone help me with installing nvidia drivers for my video card plz? iam new to ubuntu
[04:36] <howzdis> i was told to come here from another channel
[04:36] <wasnik> undecim, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/RaXE5e45
[04:36] <quietone> nathan406, I don't know anything else to look at, sorry.
[04:36] <sweetpi> !nvidia | howzdis
[04:37] <undecim> howzdis: make sure you have an internet connection and go to System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers
[04:37] <nathan406> ok
[04:37] <howzdis> ive already done the hardware drivers thing & it says its activated but not in use or somthing
[04:37] <madfox> So....no one wants to help me with my CD problem? Brasero detects it, but mount doesnt
[04:37] <loutasker> hey, can i upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10 without reinstalling via update manager or w/e?
[04:38] <Squarism> what is the difference between "Removal" and "Complete removal" in synaptic?
[04:38] <howzdis> i need help with the install commands & stuff
[04:38] <howzdis> like how to install it etc
[04:38] <Ryen> howzdis: What do you mean?
[04:38] <well_laid_lawn> Squarism:  complete removes the configs as well
[04:39] <wasnik> undecim u there
[04:39] <howzdis> ok for instance i was told to go to
[04:39] <howzdis> http://ubuntuguide.net/install-nvidia-graphical-driver-in-ubuntu-lucid-10-04
[04:39] <undecim> wasnik:  yeah, I'm looking up these device IDs
[04:39] <howzdis> i followed that guide but got stack after useing the purge command thing
[04:40] <howzdis> man :(
[04:40] <howzdis> can anyone plz help :(
[04:40] <howzdis> ive asked a couple times now sorry :(
[04:41] <brandon420> howzdis, what are you needing help with?
[04:41] <madfox> Hey, I has a CD problem.....as in the, "ubuntu wont detect it" kind...
[04:41] <undecim> wasnik: Well, you're right. It is definitely not showing up to lspci
[04:41] <brandon420> madfox, lmfao!
[04:41] <brandon420> sorry, i couldnt help but lol
[04:41] <undecim> wasnik: What about a pastebin of lshw then?
[04:41] <wasnik> undecim, are u sure u dont need drivers to see soundcard
[04:41] <IdleOne> howzdis: does  System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers offer the driver?
[04:41] <wasnik> ok just a sec
[04:42] <madfox> brandom420 well Ive asked like 3 times now and no one cares to respond
[04:42] <sweetpi> howzdis: this link explains how to work around the bug your talking about: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia#NVIDIA%20driver%20activated%20but%20not%20currently%20in%20use%20in%20ubuntu%2010.04
[04:42] <brandon420> madfox, i had the same problem earlier, sata or ide?
[04:42] <undecim> wasnik: It will still show up in lspci. As long as you have the drivers for pci (which you do, seeing as you have anything at all from lspci) you will still be able to see it
[04:43] <madfox> brandom420 its a CD so I have no clue how the HD kind matters
[04:43] <madfox> brandom420 and since the liveCD works, its a software issue
[04:43] <Squarism> is ubuntu a "non-RPM Linux distributions"
[04:43] <brandon420> sorry, im stoned. lol. let me do some googling
[04:43] <maco> Squarism: yes
[04:44] <wasnik> undecim, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/pJPcR37F
[04:44] <maco> Squarism: its a debian-based distribution.  rpm is used for red-hat-based distros, suse, mandriva, and yellowdog
[04:44] <MTecknology> I tried doing this "ecryptfs-setup-private -u michael" and got this   Testing mount/write/umount/read...  fopen: No such file or directory  ERROR:  Could not mount private ecryptfs directory    Any ideas what I screwed up on?
[04:45] <brandon420> madfox, is it a sata or ide drive?
[04:45] <madfox> brandom420 again, its a CD as in the audio cd kind :/
[04:45] <MTecknology> heh.. I got it..
[04:46] <Squarism> when on lucid, should i download mysql for  "Linux (glibc-2.3, x86) " or just "Linux (glibc-2.3, x86) "
[04:46] <Squarism> ehh
[04:46] <Squarism> ...or just "Linux (glibc-2.3, x86) "
[04:46] <Squarism> even
[04:46] <brandon420> madfox, im asking if your cd drive is being detected?
[04:46] <Squarism> gah..
[04:46] <Squarism> ...or just "Linux (x86) "
[04:46] <Squarism> ..finally right
[04:47] <sweetpi> Squarism: whats wrong with mysql from the repos?
[04:47] <FazLeeeN> if there is no xorg.conf in /etc/X11, where does xorg get the configuration settings?
[04:47] <Takieda> ergh... trying to get a c++ compiler, ran "sudo apt-get install build-essential" and it errored and I still don't have a c++ compiler :(
[04:47] <Izinucs> FazLeeeN: xrandr
[04:47] <Squarism> sweetpi, i require a specific version
[04:48] <Izinucs> !xrandr | FazLeeeN
[04:48] <FazLeeeN> Izinucs, thanks
[04:48] <Squarism> sweetpi, an old sucker
[04:48] <Izinucs> !resolution | FazLeeeN
[04:48] <Takieda> it suggested doing apt-get update... which I'm doing, but saw no suggestion of G++ or C++
[04:48] <wasnik> undecim what do u think
[04:48] <nathan406> where do i find the source code or file to enable my mouse pad
[04:49] <undecim> wasnik: No idea
[04:49] <icarus-c> Takieda, can you run the command "g++  --version" ?
[04:49] <Takieda> it says, "Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/d/dpkg/dpkg-dev_1.15.5.6ubuntu4.1_all.deb"
[04:49] <undecim> wasnik: From what I see, you're sound card doesn't exist.
[04:49] <FazLeeeN> Izinucs, I must admit installing ubuntu as a virtual guest is way easier than freebsd. I almost did nothing using cli
[04:49] <Takieda> icarus-c says it's not installed.
[04:50] <undecim> wasnik: Can I get one more paste, just to be sure? lspci -v
[04:50] <wasnik> undecim. but what u think the issue could be
[04:50] <kain> lazyPower, i looked up your solutions for connecting to my ubuntu machine, but i didn't find any that would allow me to connect to my machine on a fresh startup (before logging into a session)
[04:50] <Izinucs> FazLeeeN: they've worked very hard to make it that way..
[04:50] <Takieda> specifically "The program 'g++' can be found in the following packages..."
[04:51] <wasnik> undecim, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/Rbsjv81f
[04:51] <lazyPower> kain, ah. thats not what i thought you were asking. As far as that goes, i'm not sure.
[04:51] <Takieda> ahh crap... can't even apt-get g++ now... update is running for the next 5 hours...
[04:51] <quietone> nathan406, did you try the forum?
[04:51] <Takieda> I'm SO not building scummvm tonight :(
[04:51] <kain> lazyPower, ok thank you anyways
[04:52] <FazLeeeN> Izinucs, even the cipboard is working without any additional efforts from me. They did pretty good job
[04:52] <sweetpi> Squarism: well id imagine youll want the 2.3 x86 tarball, unless you can find a deb
[04:53] <undecim> wasnik: Nope... Ubuntu doesn't even see the pci card.
[04:54] <undecim> wasnik: Is it onboard or in a PCI slot?
[04:54] <kain> Does someone have a suggestion for this : connecting remotely to my ubuntu machine on a fresh startup (before logging into a session)?
[04:54] <Squarism> sweetpi, whi not wo glibc 2.3?
[04:54] <Squarism> sweetpi, why...
[04:55] <sweetpi> Squarism: your saying its coming with glibc or its linked against it?
[04:56] <Squarism> sweetpi, there were two versions.. one with and one wo... dunno if it requires glibc2.3 on the machine or if its "a nice to have"
[04:57] <sweetpi> Squarism: what version are you trying to get?
[04:57] <Squarism> sweetpi, 5.0.86
[04:57] <adzy> Hi all
[04:57] <Squarism> sweetpi, community or enterprise dont really matter i hope.. =D
[04:57] <adzy> d
[04:58] <wasnik> undecim, i think its onboard
[04:58] <Squarism> sweetpi, and i have standard lucid for x86
[05:00] <wasnik> undecim also th efunny thing is alsamixer commnand does not exist
[05:01] <undecim> wasnik: alsamixer I think is in alsa-utils or alsa-tools package.
[05:01] <sweetpi> Squarism: try this: http://downloads.mysql.com/archives/mysql-5.0/mysql-5.0.86-linux-i686.tar.gz
[05:01] <undecim> wasnik: Did you make sure snd modules were loaded?
[05:01] <howzdis> hi guys
[05:02] <wasnik> undecim, i went to alsa troubleshooting and they had some command to see the modlules and quite a bit of them did seem loaded
[05:02] <dublisk> is there a way to remotely boot into recovery mode?
[05:02] <howzdis> can somone plz help me with installing my nvidia video drivers? iam useing ubuntu 10.04
[05:02] <h00k> !nvidia | howzdis
[05:02] <undecim> wasnik: lsmod | grep snd
[05:02] <undecim> wasnik: and paste
[05:02] <AbhiJit> any applicatio through i can manage all networking site accounts well?
[05:03] <undecim> dublisk: Kind of...
[05:03] <wasnik> undecim http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/1xjTbbEq
[05:03] <howzdis> hook dude ive tryed following some guides but run into some problems
[05:03] <undecim> dublisk: You could set up a remote serial port or something like that.
[05:04]  * AbhiJit is 'h'ooking
[05:04] <undecim> dublisk: try loading snd-hda-codec-conexant
[05:04] <|Exec|> witch irc client are you guys recommending?
[05:04] <dublisk> so, I kinda messed up the sudoers file on a blade machine, I guess the only way to fix that is to do a recovery mode install right?
[05:05] <erikainny> how long will 9.04 be supported
[05:05] <|Exec|> havent used linux in 3 years, and ppl are telling me bitchx isnt really the way to roll anymore ;D
[05:05] <dublisk> so nobody right now can sudo
[05:05] <xangua> erikainny: read the topic
[05:06] <trask> i get error msgs when trying to mount xfs partition: mount: unknown filesystem type 'xfs'
[05:06] <erikainny> ok
[05:06] <I-are-> can anyone tell me if they have been able to play m4v files from the itunes store in linux?
[05:06] <kain> is anyone familiar with FreeNX from NoMachine?
[05:06] <howzdis> can somone help me plz
[05:06] <undecim> wasnik:  brb, need to reboot
[05:07] <dublisk> is there a way for me to remotely fix that ?
[05:07] <erikainny> wont open
[05:07] <erikainny> not sure why
[05:07] <AbhiJit> !ask | howzdis
[05:07] <howzdis> can somone plz help me with installing my video vard drivers
[05:08] <sweetpi> dublisk: unless you have a remote console or some other way to get root, no youll need physical access
[05:08] <Loshki> dublisk: I don't think you can fix that remotely. Editing sudoers is one time it may pay to install a root password to fall back on...
[05:08] <peterkirn> There's a great utility that displays text as you type it, large - perfect for workshops and screencasts - which I've forgotten. ;) Anyone know the software I'm describing?
[05:09] <dublisk> Loshki: yeah I'm thinking it might be useful to have a root user for that reason
[05:09] <howzdis> need help with installing video driver can anyone help plz?
[05:09] <dublisk> I svn exported a sudoers file but it messed up the permissions so it isn't 0440
[05:09] <tripelb> I want to get the xchat with the X symbol not Xchat-gnome. How do I find it or what is it called?
[05:09] <howzdis> iam useing ubuntu 10.04
[05:09] <erikainny> ill be using ubuntu 9.04 for a long time to come
[05:09] <sweetpi> dublisk: what kernel is the box running?
[05:10] <dublisk> ubuntu server 10.04
[05:10] <Loshki> dublisk: too late for that this time. You're going to have to boot into recovery and type on the console...
[05:10] <xangua> tripelb: sudo apt-get install xchat
[05:10] <AbhiJit> erikainny, its going to end of life! :P
[05:10] <dublisk> k, the real sysadmin isn't going to be happy =)
[05:10] <erikainny> oh well
[05:10] <sweetpi> dublisk: what arch and what kernel?
[05:10] <erikainny> i have no choice
[05:11] <Loshki> dublisk: sysadmins are never happy...
[05:11] <Zelozelos> tripelb, thers 2 versions in the repo..not sure which you're wanting
[05:11] <AbhiJit> erikainny, why? you can request a free cd from shipit of next lts version? lts would be better? 3 yrs
[05:11] <dublisk> sweetpi : x86_64
[05:11] <dublisk> 2.6.32-24-server
[05:11] <erikainny> karmaic an video problems
[05:11] <AbhiJit> erikainny, not karming. i am talking about lucid 10.04 lts
[05:12] <howzdis> how do i install video card drivers for gigabyte gts 250 , iam useing ubuntu 10.04 ?
[05:12] <erikainny> it still has the video problem
[05:12] <AbhiJit> ohh
[05:12] <sweetpi> dublisk: that version is patched, so im out of ideas.. oh well
[05:13] <tripelb> xangua, thank you that did it. googling was making my eyes burn. Now I will have uparrow-lastline AND highlighted lines with my nick in them. (i'm pretty easy to please)
[05:13] <erikainny> when i tried  9.10 it wont boot then the monitor would go blank
[05:13] <dublisk> just curious sweetpit : what was your idea
[05:13] <howzdis> anyone plz?
[05:13] <dublisk> sorry, sweetpi
[05:13] <peterkirn> Ah, Screenkey. Brilliant. http://pabloseminario.com/projects/screenkey/ (I thought it was described as an accessibility thing, but it is there as an actual screencasting tool!)
[05:13] <erikainny> its problem that wont be fixed
[05:14] <sweetpi> dublisk: pm?
[05:14] <dublisk> sure
[05:14] <AbhiJit> brb
[05:14] <howzdis> why wont anyone help?
[05:14] <howzdis> :(
[05:15] <Loshki> howzdis: sometimes, no-one knows the answer. Try googling it while you wait...
[05:15] <erikainny> so therefore im stuck with 9.04
[05:16] <sobczyk> anyone knows the new feature of kernel that grants abiliy to limit i/o
[05:17] <wasnik> welcome back undecim
[05:17] <undecim> Well that was an interesting reboot...
[05:17] <wasnik> undecim lol
[05:17] <undecim> At first, I got a kernel panic...
[05:18] <wasnik> undecim, do u always have probs with bootin
[05:18] <kernal> u paniced, not me
[05:18] <undecim> Then I tried to reboot to grub recovery mode, but forgot to hold shift, and two things that were broken before are now fixed...
[05:18] <wasnik> undecim as i never have those probs
[05:18] <redman> hola
[05:18] <undecim> My backlight works now, and my encryption setup works without having to manually run cryptsetup from busybox....
[05:19] <opert> win
[05:19] <undecim> What's weird about it is I don't remember changing my kernel or initrd, which are the two things that affect those....
[05:19] <brandon420> guys, i need sugestions of bittorrent clients with gui, that arent resource hogs.
[05:19] <undecim> anyways, wasnik, how goes the sound card installation?
[05:19] <brandon420> transmssion is lagging the shit out of me.
[05:19] <adzy> anyone know how i change my login menu pic???
[05:19] <wasnik> undecim didnt get u
[05:20] <wasnik> undecim i had sent u the modules
[05:20] <Dulak> brandon420: limit the bandwidth it uses so it can't go over 80% of your upload, and 400 connections max
[05:20] <undecim> adzy: System-> Preferences -> About Me
[05:21] <adzy> thanks
[05:21] <brandon420> Dulak, i dont mean internet browsing lag, i mean cpu wise.
[05:21] <undecim> wasnik: yeah, and I said try loading snd-hda-codec-conexant
[05:21] <undecim> wasnik: I probably misspelled the last part of that one this time though...
[05:21] <wasnik> undecim, where do i load that from
[05:22] <Dulak> brandon420: that's weird, even on my netbook it doesn't go over 2% of cpu and those atom cpus are underpowered
[05:22] <undecim> wasnik: run "sudo modprobe snd-hda-codec-conexant"
[05:22] <brandon420> Dulak, im on a p4, 1gb ram. downloading at 1.6MBps and its at like 40% cpu
[05:22] <wasnik> undecim this is what i get WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/options, it will be ignored in a future release.
[05:23] <Dulak> brandon420: ide drive not sata huh?
[05:23] <undecim> wasnik: Does aplay -l list your sound card now?
[05:23] <wasnik> undecim nope
[05:23] <undecim> :(
[05:23] <adzy> undecim: I think i worded it wrong, but i wanted to change the them of the login page, not my actual profile pic :D
[05:23] <brandon420> Dulak, yeah, but its downloading to a external hdd. but its always had high useage.
[05:23] <adzy> theme*
[05:24] <Dulak> brandon420: that's saturating your i/o, limit it to 1mbit down and see what it does to your cpu
[05:24] <undecim> adzy: Ahhh... well that's a little more difficult
[05:24] <adzy> i downloaded one of the theme pack.. but i dont know where to change the img
[05:24] <undecim> adzy: The new GDM doesn't support theming directly... Though there are some apps to change the background, GTK appearance, etc...
[05:24] <brandon420> Dulak, does it matter that my os is on its own drive?
[05:25] <undecim> adzy: ubuntu tweak will let you change it, and there is also GDM2Setup
[05:25] <adzy> so if i get aGTK appearance it will let me do it?
[05:25] <sobczyk> anyone knows the new feature of kernel that grants abiliy to limit i/o?
[05:25] <adzy> where do i get ubuntu tweak from? synapsis
[05:25] <adzy> ?
[05:25] <undecim> adzy: Changing the GTK appearance requires you to do su to gdm while there is a login window open.
[05:25] <Dulak> brandon420: shouldn't matter it's the download that is saturating something, limit connections and up/down just to see if it makes a difference, transmission is one of the better torrent clients, resource-wise
[05:26] <undecim> adzy: i don't think tweak is in the repos
[05:26] <undecim> adzy: http://ubuntu-tweak.com/
[05:26] <adzy> ok cheers undecim :D
[05:26] <Dulak> ubuntu tweak has it's own repo, iirc
[05:27] <undecim> adzy: Though it's a little more difficult, you can actually do a lot with the new GDM if you know how. Let me know if you want to change some of the appearance settings, or add some additional functionality, etc.
[05:28] <Takieda> I downloaded a .bz2 file that was supposed to be compiled... I extracted the one file from it, and when I try to double click the extension-less file, it gives me an error saying "There is no application installed for executable files" trying to type it into terminal gives the error "command not found"
[05:28] <Takieda> what should I be typing to get it to run?
[05:28] <Loshki> undecim: is there a web page or something for the new gdm?
[05:28] <infid> how can i disable ctrl+shift+n opening a new gnome terminal? in gnome terminal's keyboard shortcut preferences it says 'disabled' is an option for some keys but i dont know how to get it to BE disabled
[05:29] <adzy> thanksmate im trying the ubuntu-tweak ill c how that goes :D
[05:29] <Dulak> Takieda: in the dir the file is located type: ./filenamehere
[05:29] <undecim> Loshki: I'm sure there is, but I couldn't tell you where.
[05:29] <undecim> Takieda: Are you running it with the ./ at the beginning in the terminal?
[05:30] <Takieda> nope... now I get permission denied... I'll run it with sudo
[05:30] <sweetpi> Takieda: chmod +x filename; ./filename
[05:30] <undecim> Takieda: what sweetpi said
[05:30] <Loshki> undecim: np. Now I know it exists I'll look for it...
[05:30] <misteralexander> login
[05:31] <undecim> Loshki: If you want to do anything specific with the new GDM, I could probably tell you how to do it though.
[05:31] <ddev> I updated my ubuntu from 9.10 to 10.04 LTS now when i click on Firefox or terminal icon in the panel screen just flickers but nothing happens/launches even if i go in Application >Accessories>Terminal nothing happens only LXTerminal works and i can launch firefox pidgin etc from it.
[05:31] <misteralexander> How do I "Log In" so I can verify my nickname?
[05:31] <ddev> What could be the issue with my Up-gradation is it nautilus ?
[05:32] <undecim> misteralexander: What do you mean?
[05:32] <Loshki> undecim: I didn't know it was configurable. I though it was a new rewrite and hence not very feature rich...
[05:32] <Loshki> misteralexander: you need to register your nick.
[05:33] <Loshki> !register | misteralexander
[05:33] <robert__> hey i got a question about this os ubuntu can someone help me out?
[05:33] <Dulak> whois robert__
[05:33] <adzy> how do i run ubuntu tweak? i installed it but cant find it in menu?
[05:33] <Takieda> Dulak: HAH!!!
[05:33] <Takieda> :)
[05:33] <jkazana> !ask | robert__
[05:33] <Dulak> Takieda: yeah failsauce
[05:33] <misteralexander> Loshki: I have registered, but I've also gotten an email asking me to confirm my email, by typing "/msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER misteralexander rbojjsmcueic" into the channel.
[05:33] <robert__> i am tryin to find a itunes that works with ubuntu
[05:33] <undecim> adzy: alt+f2 and type "ubuntu-tweak"?
[05:34] <Takieda> could be worse... you *could* have the CTRL key and Enter key right next to each other... so you
[05:34]  * Takieda all the time
[05:34] <adzy> didnt work.. maybey it didnt install properly
[05:34] <Dulak> misteralexander: you just gave everyone in here your password
[05:34] <ectospasm> robert__: iTunes does not work on ANY Linux.  You probably want a media player like RhythmBox, audacious, ec.
[05:34] <icarus-c> robert__, Apple doesn't produce a Linux version of iTunes
[05:34] <Loshki> misteralexander: er, you didn't just type your password here did you?
[05:34] <undecim> misteralexander: Then type that.
[05:34] <Takieda> well, nevermind... now Ctrl+enter doesn't seem to work, heh.
[05:34] <undecim> Loshki:  I think it's a verification code, now p/w
[05:35] <robert__> ok so can i sync the ipod with rythmbox
[05:35] <misteralexander> Loshki: no, it was the confirmation code, NOT my password.
[05:35] <ectospasm> robert__: yes, but it may not work perfectly
[05:35] <Dulak> robert__: yes rb can sync to an ipod
[05:35] <robert__> ok il give it a shot im bran new to ubuntu and i waned it for music
[05:35] <Loshki> undecim: misteralexander: good. I once type my password in this channel. It's archived so that password is now useless forever...
[05:35] <misteralexander> undecim: I did & it says I need to "Log In" before I can confirm.
[05:36] <brandon420> omfg
[05:36] <brandon420> wow
[05:36] <misteralexander> undecim: ergo, my first question.
[05:36] <brandon420> Dulak, idk wtf just happened, but it got to where i couldnt do anything had to goto tty1 and kill transmission
[05:37] <robert__> il be back if i have prob thank u man
[05:37] <undecim> misteralexander: I think its /msg NickServ identify password
[05:37] <misteralexander> Loshki: undecim: so I ask my question, how do I "Log In" so I can confirm my existence.
[05:37] <Dulak> brandon420: try deluge instead of transmission, see if it does any better for you
[05:38] <Loshki> misteralexander: try what undecim suggests above. Set your nick, identify, then verify...
[05:38] <rallias> what is the package I need to install to use the 2 finger scroll on the trackpad?
[05:38] <brandon420> Dulak, is there any gui for rtorrent? i know it works wonders on my vps.
[05:39] <Dulak> misteralexander: if you are having problems the folks in #freenode will have better luck helping you than us
[05:39] <misteralexander> Loshki: here, in this channel?  I thought you said NOT to share my pass in here?
[05:39] <Loshki> brandon420: there's a ui, not a gui, and some web interfaces...
[05:39] <Dulak> brandon420: no idea, I use transmission and have had no problems with it, never had to look for anything else
[05:40] <undecim> misteralexander: If you type /msg NickServ, it will send a private message to NickServ, which is the bot in charge of registration
[05:40] <Dulak> misteralexander: when you type /msg NickServ it sends it as a private message, not to the channel
[05:41] <Dulak> misteralexander: /msg is a private message to whatever nickname comes after it, not a channel-wide message
[05:41] <undecim> misteralexander: or your IRC client may have a GUI for private messages. Just send a private message to NickServ that says "identify password" where password is your password
[05:41] <Loshki> misteralexander: if you mistype /msg, your password can be exposed. Many clients allow you to automate this step so that doesn't happen. Sorry it's so complicated...
[05:43] <misteralexander> Loshi: undecim: everything worked perfect, THANKS!
[05:45] <kristiina> hi guys! can anyone tell me how to install a driver so my hp mini on ubuntu 10.04 netbook edition read SD cards?
[05:46] <robert__> hey i have a question about rymthbox how do i sinc the ipod to erase and put music on and i press play and the bar dose not more and no sound comes out
[05:47] <slayer> hello
[05:47] <robert__> hey man
[05:47] <slayer> i need help
[05:47] <robert__> me too
[05:48] <slayer> rewgarding?
[05:48] <tripelb> I want a volume control on my applications panel. I didnt see it in Add-To-Panel. What's it called?
[05:49] <robert__> rythem box syincing my ipod to it and geting the thing to play music
[05:49] <Dulak> tripelb: indicator applet
[05:49] <jkazana> !ask | slayer
[05:49] <tripelb> I've had the Volume Control on my Panel previously but this is a new install, Dulak, I'll look for it.
[05:50] <slayer> network manager icon isnt showing up in my maptop what to do
[05:50] <slayer> *laptop
[05:50] <Dulak> tripelb: just add indicator applet to the panel it has a volume control on it
[05:50] <jkazana> robert__: I'm having the same issue with rb not playing my podcast
[05:50] <tripelb> ah, what a terrific name (/s) and it hooks to the mail thingy that I dont want... hmm
[05:51] <jkazana> I think it has something to do with aac and being sure you have all the aac stuff installed
[05:51] <tripelb> whew slayer, I was just going - I cant understand him at all.
[05:51] <slayer> in my laptop, the network manager icon is not showing up
[05:51] <slayer> waht ato do
[05:52] <xorwhy> Is it possible to route all network traffic through TOR, system-wide?
[05:52] <tripelb> good luck all. I'm going to watch a movie. I have "had it" with this system. At least removing the nvidia driver and xorg.conf made things usable. Huzzah!
[05:52] <slayer> anybody can help me?
[05:53] <undecim> slayer: Add "notification area" to your panel
[05:54] <Loshki> xorwhy: I believe so. I've certainly routed browser traffic through tor, but I found tor to be almost unbearably slow...
[05:54] <xorwhy> Is there an  IP:port that I can use to specify as a proxy in network manager for TOR?
[05:54] <pablo__> this is awesome
[05:54] <undecim> xorwhy: There is something called KSB - Kernel Socks Bouncer
[05:55] <undecim> xorwhy: Google it
[05:55] <slayer> undecim: i tried.. but still not coming
[05:55] <pablo__> Ubuntu rules. Thanks everyone
[05:56] <pablo__> and bye
[05:56] <undecim> slayer: It may be the same problem I had today while messing with themes. Quit simple really, move the indicator applet (where you see sound, etc) out of the way and see if it appears.
[05:56] <undecim> slayer: Right-click and unlock if necessary, then right-click and move
[05:57] <undecim> slayer: The network manager and sound icons (among others) show up on two different applets - the notification area and indicator applet, respectively. Sometimes, one will cover the other up if there isn't enough space in the area that they are in.
[05:57] <slayer> undecim: thanks a lot
[05:58] <brandon420> Dulak, deluge doesnt seem to be working
[05:58] <robert__> well let me know if u fix it im tryin too man
[05:58] <undecim> Well, I'm tired. g'night, #ubuntu
[06:03] <JohnnyL> When upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10 do you have to reinstall everything from scratch?
[06:05] <rww> JohnnyL: try #ubuntu+1, #ubuntu is only for released versions, not development ones
[06:05] <rww> I'd think you wouldn't need to reinstall anything, though.
[06:10] <sebastian_> hii to all, i have a problem, ican't listen on-line radio with ubuntu
[06:14] <frobisher> sebastian_, have you tryed ShoutCast
[06:14] <megadeth> hello, when I boot my system, it gets stuck at the loading screen. I need to open a terminal and kill Xorg and restart gdm in order to get to the desktop. How do I find out what's wrong? There's no error in dmesg
[06:15] <sebastian_> i think nobody is here.......
[06:16] <uLinux> confirmed
[06:16] <sebastian_> what is shoucast frobisher?
[06:16] <frobisher> sebastian_, ,have you tryed ShoutCast
[06:16] <brandon420> sebastian_, just use mplayer, or smplayer
[06:16] <brandon420> it works perfectly to listen to a stream.
[06:16] <sinistrad> megadeth, you can try looking in your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:16] <quietone> can anyone explain how to connect to net via bluetooth phone?
[06:17] <sebastian_> i am tryng with vlc
[06:17] <frobisher> sebastian_, ,it is a free online radio stream.
[06:17] <brandon420> someone, anyone, tell me the easiest way to update deluge!?
[06:17] <megadeth> sinistrad, no errors in that file
[06:19] <sinistrad> megadeth, you can try looking in your /var/log/gdm/ directory
[06:19] <sinistrad> megadeth, I'm just throwing these out as places you can start looking. I probably won't be much help past that
[06:20] <frobisher> sebastian_, ,I am using the default player:Totem
[06:20] <quietone> where can I get help to connect to net via bluetooth?
[06:20] <JohnnyL> rww: thanks
[06:21] <spinningcompass> quietone: Pair your phone w/ your PC as a dial-up device.
[06:22] <sebastian_> its difficult... xD
[06:23] <spinningcompass> quietone: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=598890
[06:23] <frobisher> sebastian_, what's difficult?
[06:26] <sebastian_> im with the smplayer now
[06:26] <frobisher> sebastian_, ,just google ShoutCast,it has it's own player.
[06:26] <passingby> Hey guys, I installed ubuntu 10.04 last night on my vaio laptop. I did this using this method http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fy1ISEJIv84 But there are many things not working with my ubuntu and I want to uninstall it. could you please guide me?
[06:27] <frobisher> sebastian_, :does it work for you.
[06:27] <quietone> spinningcompass, even though that thread is 2 years old?
[06:27] <spinningcompass> quietone: Did you try it?
[06:28] <quietone> spinningcompass, I have tried so many things my head is spinning.  the best I got was blueman reporting could not get an ip address. I am still looking at the thread
[06:28] <sebastian_> yesss, now i can
[06:29] <sebastian_> with rythmbox
[06:29] <passingby> as far as i understand, I just need to delete the contents of the partition I installed ubuntu in. The windows MBR does not need any fixing i think, cos when i boot up it shows the windows boot manager, and from there when i select ubuntu I am presented with grub. Does this mean that windows MBR is as it is and i dont need to fix it?
[06:29] <spinningcompass> quietone: blueman 0.5 or 0.6?
[06:30] <quietone> spinningcompass, no I didn't follow those instructions. it asks to edit /etc/default/bluetooth which is now a dir
[06:30] <quietone> blueman 1.21
[06:31] <spinningcompass> quietone: Does ifconfig say that bnep0 is up?
[06:31] <frobisher> sebastian_, great!
[06:33] <ChrisMorgan> I ran updates yesterday and restarted, it's just occurred to me that I have no sound now; Hardware tab of Sound Preferences has no entries in it.  What should I do: restart again, or try and figure out what's happened somehow (don't know how)?
[06:35] <quietone> spinningcompass, i've also posted details at  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1578329
[06:36] <spinningcompass> quietone: Have you successfully paired your phone w/ the bluetooth manager in Ubuntu?
[06:36] <quietone> spinningcompass, yes it pairs just fine.
[06:37] <spinningcompass> quietone: What's the output of ifconfig?
[06:39] <dublisk> Hi, I installed samba, but I don't have a /etc/init.d/samba, should I ?
[06:39] <dublisk> how do I restart samba after editing /etc/samba/smb.conf ?
[06:39] <SwedeMike> dublisk: do you have one called smb in there?
[06:40] <quietone> spinningcompass, http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/3Erbamem
[06:40] <spinningcompass> dublisk: /etc/init.d/smb restart probably
[06:40] <ChrisMorgan> The kernel update to 2.6.32-24 seems to me to be the only thing in the list which could have done anything.
[06:40] <dublisk> smbd
[06:40] <besogon> good morning all. I stack in a problem with package management. Thomething was broken after last update. I see some updates but can't install them. Something is going on but it seems not to install packages. Have you ever seen this problem?
[06:41] <andycc> dublisk: I think "service samba restart", or something along those lines.
[06:41] <spinningcompass> quietone: It lists "192.168.66.2" as the IP address. What happens if you ping 205.152.0.5 or 65.55.12.249 ?
[06:41] <dublisk> "service smbd restart" does something, I have no samba service
[06:41] <besogon> dublisk: do it in other way. sudo service smbd restart && sudo service nmbd restart
[06:41] <dublisk> is smbd samba?
[06:41] <quietone> spinningcompass, brb
[06:42] <andycc> dublisk: smbd=smb daemon, so I guess it's samba.
[06:42] <dublisk> k
[06:42] <andycc> besogon: I have that problem too, actually...
[06:42] <FOCer> besogon: pastebin the output of apt-get update and apt-get upgrade
[06:43] <besogon> dublisk: samba consists of 2 different daemon: nmbd and smbd
[06:43] <quietone> spinningcompass, ping outputs "PING 205.152.0.5 (205.152.0.5) 56(84) bytes of data" once
[06:43] <spinningcompass> quietone: What about the other one?
[06:44] <dublisk> restart: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.71" (uid=1000 pid=4629 comm="restart) interface="com.ubuntu.Upstart0_6.Job" member="Restart" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="com.ubuntu.Upstart" (uid=0 pid=1 comm="/sbin/init"))
[06:44] <spinningcompass> quietone: What about 72.30.2.43 (that's yahoo.com)?
[06:44] <dublisk> does that look bad ? thats what I got from service smbd restart
[06:45] <quietone> spinningcompass, I only did one because I have tried so many times in the past two days ... but ... brb
[06:46] <besogon> FOCer: Here is output of apt-get update http://pastebin.com/spam.php?i=JSpxE23r
[06:46] <dublisk> Ok, another question, if I lost my .Xauthority how should I regenerate it ? I read online one trick is chmod 777 the home directory and then run xauth, is that ok?
[06:47] <dublisk> I don't know how it got lost, but it seems to be gone
[06:47] <quietone> spinningcompass, same result, nothing
[06:47] <spinningcompass> :-/
[06:47] <spinningcompass> quietone: Who is your carrier?
[06:47] <quietone> spinningcompass, vodafoneNZ
[06:48] <thune3> dublisk: i only get that error dialong when my filesystem encounters errors and is remounted read-only. Just pointing it out.
[06:48] <spinningcompass> quietone: Does VodafoneNZ require tethering to be activated at their end?
[06:48] <besogon> FOCer: В кэше ==In cache  and Игн==ignore
[06:48] <FOCer> besogon: oops, i don't understand the language. what about the output of apt-get upgrade ?
[06:49] <quietone> spinningcompass, they tell me it is. the phone itself can access the web. the one tech I spoke to was unable to help.
[06:49] <spinningcompass> quietone: When you initiated the dial-up connection, did you cell phone inform you that it had connected to the Internet?
[06:50] <dublisk> k thanks
[06:50] <dublisk> seeya
[06:50] <Agent001> I can't believe I've successfully converted from xp to ubuntu completely
[06:51] <besogon> FOCer: one more second
[06:51] <quietone> spinningcompass, the phone asked something like do you want to connect to internet. I accept and then can't do anything. Is there some configuration I am missing?
[06:51] <pfifo> i just installed chromium for a test drive, when i goto a webpage with the text http://youtube.com/?watch=xxxxxxx instead of displaying the text i get to hear and watch 200 youtube videos at once, this behavior is not what i want, how can i change this?
[06:51] <spinningcompass> quietone: Yes but it's not your fault. I had the same problem & it took me a while to fix it.
[06:51] <spinningcompass> quietone: You're on the right track, trying bluez & blueman.
[06:52] <quietone> spinningcompass, thx ;-)
[06:52] <spinningcompass> quietone: It's the configuration of bluez / blueman that's the issue. I *wish* I could remember what I did. :-/ I had the same problem, when I was using my AT&T phone to connect my Toshiba N205 (?) to the Internet. In the end, I just had to mess with the checkboxes in bluez (or was it blueman) until it connected.
[06:52] <MattTheComputerG> Hello all, i have a server running gentoo and i cant get it working properly, the gui is not working and i hate the terminal interface in gentoo, its not N00B friendly so, i was wondering can ubuntu run apache, myslq, and all that other goodness a server should have and can i remote ssh into it as well has set it to email me problems. can i just instal Ubuntu over gentoo or is it more involved,

[06:54] <adymitruk_> Hello
[06:54] <FOCer> MattTheComputerG: make sure to install at least openssh server, there's LAMP stack that you can install as well
[07:02] <besogon> FOCer: sudo apt-get upgrade command has helped me. All was installed. I think there is something broken in GUI package manager.

[07:06] <Trifo> TTYLinux looks good so far. Do you guys have any other suggestions for terminal Linux distros?
[07:08] <rww> Trifo: This channel's for Ubuntu support specifically, so try ##linux or #ubuntu-offtopic perhaps.
[07:09] <connelly> Hey guys whats up
[07:09] <Trifo> Freenode help directed me here because joining Linux has issues in the official Freenode chat client

[07:20] <rww> vrakesh: did you wait a while? It takes a minute or two sometimes.
[07:21] <rww> or did you get an actual error?
[07:21] <vrakesh> im still waiting
[07:21] <spinningcompass> :) k
[07:21] <vrakesh> i added about 15 minutes back

[07:21] <FOCer> *subscribe
[07:21] <vrakesh> rww: which user id and password to use
[07:22] <rww> vrakesh: I don't have a copy of pidgin right now, but if I remember correctly, user ID is your nickname, and password is your nickserv password (or blank if you don't want to autologin)
[07:22] <vrakesh> rww: server name is?
[07:23] <rww> vrakesh: which server do you want to connect to? this one?
[07:23] <hariom> rajasun: I am not on GUI. To u know Commandline method?

[07:23] <hariom> How to remove a ppa that was added using add-apt-repository

[07:25] <vrakesh> rww: its still taking time
[07:25] <Rajasun> hariom: there's ppa-purge and there's the old fashioned open up the sources.list file with an editor like nano and then comment or remove the entries to the particular ppa you want gone.
[07:25] <rww> vrakesh: alrighty. someone who has it installed might be able to guide you through better
[07:26] <vrakesh> rww: thanks a lot for the help

[07:29] <Rapp> hi everybody!
[07:31] <Rapp> i am trying to compile a program that uses libXp, libXext et al. during linking (-L/usr/lib -lXp ...) i get a "-lXp not found". but the files are there, however the symlinks from libXp.so.6 to libXp.so is missing. so ld does not find several libraries. i can fix this manually, but i think ubuntu should have created those. is there any script i can run to fix this?
[07:32] <Karen_m> why does the 'top right corner'->shutdown  ... SOMETIMES only log me out?  what is that about
[07:33] <Karen_m> power button (top right) -> shutdown  ..  sometimes only logs me out, why is that?
[07:33] <Karen_m> even a reboot does it as well
[07:33] <vaibhav1> I have installed graphics card on ubuntu 8.04, When I start PC, everything is working normally till booting, the time when screen flashes to display login screen, It shows, no signal, but on ctrl+alt+1 shows terminal, is there any way to start GUI or switch the display cards?
[07:34] <ectospasm> Karen_m: works for me.
[07:34] <Karen_m> it works for me 80% of the time, sometimes it only logs me out
[07:34] <ectospasm> vaibhav1: are you sure you have the correct video drivers loaded?
[07:34] <Jordan_U> Rapp: libxp-dev contains libxp.so
[07:34] <MasterofPuppets> Hey guys. Laptop can see my wireless network but won't connect. Drivers are updated. Suggestions?
[07:35] <Jordan_U> Rapp: What are you trying to compile?
[07:35] <Rapp> Jordan_U: you are right. thanks :)
[07:35] <Rapp> Jordan_U: Xephem
[07:37] <Jordan_U> Rapp: You're welcome. apt-file seach is a great tool :)
[07:37] <vaibhav1> ectospasm: how I can Check that? I checked from dmesg, it says driver successfully installed. Because if I remove the card its working properly and in in Ubuntu 10.04 its working with card installed and running properly.
[07:37] <Rapp> hm, gotta remember apt-file..
[07:39] <ectospasm> vaibhav1: maybe 8.04 doesn't support that video chipset. I dunno
[07:41] <pwuertz> hi, is there a tool (maybe gui) in the ubuntu repository for easy deb packaging? Getting this dh-script stuff working takes just too much time :/
[07:42] <asfjio> hello, i want to change my kerberos password and when i do kpasswd my_username and i enter the passwords i get this "Cannot contact any KDC for requested realm changing password"
[07:42] <asfjio> can someone help?
[07:43] <hariom> Hi, Is there any tutorial for automating the package installation etc? I am looking to have a script which can fetch latest package from python easy_install and install it. Also, while doing this I want to install other dependencies, installing, configuring Ant etc
[07:44] <Jordan_U> pwuertz: Look into "quickly".
[07:45] <thune3> pwuertz: the checkinstall program creates a deb when installing and can be set to only spit out the deb. something to look at mabye.
[07:45] <Jordan_U> pwuertz: thune3: checkinstall doesn't create packages of high enough quality to be distributed.
[07:46] <pwuertz> thune3, ah yes, I know this one.. unfortunately its very special and works for "make install" sourcecode only
[07:47] <pwuertz> Jordan_U, thune3: I somehow managed to package my software using this debhelper stuff once, but it took days... and an attempt to do it again failed for some reason. I really don't like this stuff ;)
[07:48] <dongs> ok so i just installed ubunto-server and i get no wireless.
[07:48] <dongs> what gives.
[07:49] <Rapp> dongs: can be a bit more specific? e.g. does your wifi card show up in iwconfig, ...
[07:49] <Karen_m> why is it that when I want to share a folder, I get 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: cannot convert name "everyone" to a SID.  Invalid parameter
[07:50] <dongs> Rapp: i have no idea. i guess it does? why wasnt this setup during "setup{.
[07:50] <jgalt> I've searched to see if it there was a way to steam netflix in ubuntu, thought I could ask here just in cases
[07:50] <dongs> i see something in wlan0 in iwconfig.
[07:50] <pwuertz> Jordan_U, I read about this "quickly" project for easy deb building.. but so far I found no documentation how to use it
[07:52] <Gnea> jgalt: boxee might work
[07:52] <jgalt> is that a paid service?
[07:52] <dongs> .. wtf is this
[07:53] <dongs> so, how do i makea wireless work
[07:53] <Rapp> dongs: i am not that experienced with ubuntu and its wifi setup, but since you are talking about it being a server, i assume, you have CLI only? no GUI? i have a similar problem here, and i manually set up wpa_supplicant, but i think there are also CLI tools for the wifi setup (see wicd)
[07:53] <Rapp> gotta run now
[07:53] <MasterofPuppets> Hey guys. Laptop can see my wireless network but won't connect. Drivers are updated. Suggestions?
[07:53] <dongs> k looking
[07:54] <Gnea> jgalt: not sure, but www.boxee.tv
[07:54] <st__> why cannot ubuntu developers just die????
[07:54] <jgalt> thanks i'll look into it
[07:54] <vrakesh> MasterofPuppets: sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[07:54] <christophoros> hello guys how can i enable my graphics to change desktops like a cube etc etc... i have installed my nvidia drivers
[07:54] <dongs> 'interface doenst support scanningm, network is down"
[07:54] <MasterofPuppets> vrakesh: Already tried
[07:55] <st__> i've turned my machine today and get that shit: kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
[07:55] <dongs> st__: next time use a filesystem that can actually handle hard power-down without fail, ex. ntfs
[07:56] <st__> dongs, kernel is not very often rewritten I suppose so power failures should leave it aside
[07:56] <vrakesh> MasterofPuppets: sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid <wireless essid> ; sudo dhclient wlan0?
[07:58] <Jordan_U> dongs: ext3/4 generally deal with power failures better than ntfs (yes, I'm aware of the rename issues and I've also had a lot of files lost from ntfs with power loss).
[07:58] <MasterofPuppets> vrakesh: All done
[07:58] <st__> /sbin/init: relocation error: /lib/libnih.so.1: symbol __abort_msg, version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file libc.so.6 with link timw reference
[07:59] <MasterofPuppets> vrakesh: Terminal reports it as functioning perfectly. I even tried wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -cwpa.conf, that just loops and doesn't connect
[07:59] <st__> what am I supposed to do?
[07:59] <Jordan_U> st__: Please avoid hyperbole and attacks on the Ubuntu developers.
[07:59] <GreenDance> hi, im currently stuck in uname (command line) how do i exit uname please
[08:00] <st__> Jordan_U, it's not exactly 1995 when you could allow computers to die randomly during weekend
[08:00] <Gnea> GreenDance: how is that possible?
[08:00] <GreenDance> Gnea: how is what possible?
[08:00] <Gnea> GreenDance: that the uname command got stuck?
[08:01] <GreenDance> i'm on the command line
[08:01] <GreenDance> typed uname
[08:01] <GreenDance> read it
[08:01] <Jordan_U> st__: None the less, wishing death on those that are providing you with software for Free is inapropriate, and unnacceptable in this channel.
[08:01] <Gnea> and?
[08:01] <GreenDance> what do I press to get out of it
[08:01] <GreenDance> CTRL+ something?
[08:01] <Gnea> what did you type, exactly? just 'uname<enter>' or any flags?
[08:01] <st__> right now they providing me with failires for free stoning my machine, but that's irrelevant
[08:01] <GreenDance> just uname
[08:01] <Gnea> it should go right back to the commandline prompt already
[08:02] <Gnea> it should say 'Linux'
[08:02] <Gnea> then the prompt
[08:02] <Gnea> it shouldn't remain blank after 'Linux'
[08:02] <st__> when I;m trying recovery mode it prints some more stuff but has same panic problem
[08:02] <Jordan_U> st__: Do you get the same error booting an older kernel version?
[08:02] <Gnea> GreenDance: can you open a new terminal?
[08:03] <GreenDance> Gnea: sure
[08:03] <Gnea> GreenDance: k, now type:  ps axf | grep uname
[08:03] <st__> Jordan_U, I have only 2.6.35-19 and memtest86+ kernels listed
[08:03] <Kartagis> when I use iconv to change the character set of a srt file, I get a Bus error. any ideas why?
[08:03] <vaibhav1> ectospasm: How I can tell ubuntu to use onboard graphics to use from terminal? I tried restarting gdm but not working..
[08:04] <st__> Kartagis, paste it somewhere
[08:04] <christophoros> how can i get admin rights on sources file in etc/apt folder ?
[08:05] <st__> christophoros, just type sudo and don;t care about rights
[08:05] <Jordan_U> st__: What version of Ubuntu are you using? No stable version of Ubuntu uses 2.6.35, and you're complaints are especially innapropriate when you're using an unreleased version of Ubuntu.
[08:05] <Kartagis> st__ paste what? the command I'm using or the error?
[08:05] <pwuertz> Jordan_U, ok, I looked into "quickly" now.. but its not a packaging tool... Its some kind of development environment for simple python+gtk applications and allows to package them
[08:05] <st__> Kartagis, common and error, obviously
[08:07] <Kartagis> st__ brb
[08:07] <ectospasm> vaibhav1: I don't know.  I don't think you can use the adapter for GUI, and the onboard for terminal.  I really don't think that's possible, but I could be very wrong.
[08:08] <vaibhav1> ectospasm: okie thanks a lot for helping, I 'll continue using it on 10.04 :)
[08:08] <st__> what the hell is 'unreleased'? i've downloaded iso from releases.ubuntu.com or similar site
[08:09] <Jordan_U> st__: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[08:09] <Jordan_U> !language | st__
[08:09] <vrakesh> MasterofPuppets>: the least i could say is check the password once againm
[08:09] <MasterofPuppets> vrakesh: It's correct
[08:10] <MasterofPuppets> vrakesh: I've reset the router, rebooted, re-installed the kernel, everything
[08:10] <MasterofPuppets> vrakesh: For some reason it won't connect
[08:10] <kristiina> hi. anybody know how to enable bultin SD card reader in ubuntu 10.04 netbook edition?
[08:10] <vrakesh> MasterofPuppets:sad
[08:10] <maxpert> hey i am using ssh putty how can i start a commandline process iin background
[08:10] <maxpert> ?
[08:11] <vrakesh> maxpert:yes
[08:11] <st__> iso file was "ubuntu-10.10-beta-desktop-i386"
[08:11] <maxpert> vrakesh how can i do that?
[08:11] <vrakesh> use &
[08:11] <vrakesh> maxpert : use &
[08:11] <vrakesh> maxpert: and check it with "jobs" command
[08:11] <Jordan_U> st__: Notice the "beta" in the filename. Support for 10.10 in #ubuntu+1.
[08:12] <rww> also, the warning at the start of the installer.
[08:12] <maxpert> thanks vrakesh
[08:12] <maxpert> :D
[08:12] <Jordan_U> st__: The current stable release is 10.04.1
[08:12] <MasterofPuppets> vrakesh: Yeah. Hopefully somebody will know how to fix it
[08:13] <vrakesh> anyone has any idea what are the new features coming in 10.10?
[08:13] <MalelDraconis> Hey, does anyone have & use LMMS?  I'm having a prob with no text in the tooltip boxes
[08:13] <maxpert> if i want to execute mongod --dbpath ./data/ while staying on command console wat would the command be vrakesh
[08:13] <maxpert> ?
[08:14] <rww> vrakesh: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MaverickMeerkat/TechnicalOverview , ask #ubuntu+1 for further discussion
[08:14] <vrakesh> MasterofPuppets: try rebooting and switching off and on the wifi device
[08:14] <kristiina> hi. anybody know how to enable bultin SD card reader in ubuntu 10.04 netbook edition?
[08:14] <vrakesh> maxpert:  mongod --dbpath ./data/ &
[08:15] <st__> i don't like that hipocrisy, so it will be magically 'supported' and 'stable' by itself in 17 days?
[08:15] <maxpert> thanks :P
[08:15] <rww> st__: yes.
[08:15] <rww> or, to be more precise, the version of Maverick that's deemed stable by the release team, hopefully in 17 days, will be supported here then.
[08:15] <Jordan_U> kristiina: Could you insert a card into the reader then run "sudo blkid", "lspci", and "lsusb" then pastebin the output from those commands?
[08:16] <MasterofPuppets> vrakesh: Already did :(
[08:16] <MasterofPuppets> vrakesh: Right now, I'm feeling that it may be some sort of hardware error
[08:16] <MasterofPuppets> vrakesh: Software fixes aren't doing anything
[08:17] <st__> back on topic, so what should I do now: can I repair it somehow without loosing /home and /etc stuff?
[08:17] <rww> you should /join #ubuntu+1 and ask for help there.
[08:17] <shekar> hi can any one tell me how to run .bin file in ubuntu, i am new to ubuntu
[08:18] <vrakesh> MasterofPuppets: its not hardware problem...as it its detecting wifi networks rite
[08:18] <Jordan_U> shekar: You generally shouldn't. What are you trying to install/use ?
[08:18] <st__> what's the difference? i'm pretty sure the recovery process is similar between systems to be discussed in some desolatedc hannel
[08:18] <shekar> i am trying to install the google earth
[08:19] <MalelDraconis> sorry for repeating, but is anyone familiar with LMMS (Linux Multi-Media Studio)
[08:19] <ikonia> st__: sometimes different versions behave different, thats why you need to ask in the appropriate channels
[08:20] <kristiina> Jordan_U: OK, doing it now.
[08:20] <ikonia> MalelDraconis: is there an ubuntu package for it ?
[08:21] <shekar>  Jordan_U: i am trying to install google earth
[08:22] <GreenDance> Gnea: I worked out what I had to do, just press "q"
[08:22] <Gnea> GreenDance: interesting
[08:23] <shekar> Jordan_U: i am trying to install google earth
[08:23] <Jordan_U> shekar: It's easier to install from medibuntu.
[08:23] <Jordan_U> !medibuntu | shekar
[08:23] <Serafeim> I need hardware support. I have an external hard driver and the usb has broken. I openned it and found the usb chip. Does enyone advice me how I can stick the chip again. I will apriciate any kind of ideas. Thank you a lot.
[08:25] <ikonia> Serafeim: join ##hardware this channel is ubuntu support only
[08:25] <kristiina> Jordan_U: i've pasted it to the link paste.ubuntu.com
[08:25] <Jordan_U> kristiina: You need to give the URL.
[08:25] <shekar> ok ok thank u very much
[08:26] <vrakesh> is there any IDE for perl in ubuntu?
[08:26] <dongs> oh man this is fucking ridiculous. why do i have to spend ANY time in 2010 to setup wireless beyond picking an AP from a list and typing in wpa2 password
[08:26] <kristiina> Jordan_U: url where?
[08:26] <vrakesh> i installed epic,.... but dont know how to invoke it
[08:26] <Serafeim> ikonia: how i can join this chat room?
[08:26] <Jordan_U> kristiina: The URL of the page with your output.

[08:27] <Serafeim> ikonia: Cannot join ##hardware: Registration is required.
[08:27] <Serafeim> Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services
[08:27] <dongs> so register.
[08:27] <dongs> hello, how do i connect to a wireless AP with ubunto.
[08:27] <ikonia> Serafeim: join #freenode and ask for help
[08:28] <shekar> should i download it from medibuntu
[08:28] <st__> can i install a working kernel from livecd?

[08:28] <Serafeim> !register
[08:29] <Serafeim> ikona: thank you
[08:29] <dongs> hello, > 1000 peopel here how do i get wireless to connect to access point. this is like basic shit, why is none of this in documentation
[08:30] <vinok> dongs, is your wireless switch on?
[08:30] <ikonia> dongs: you start by toning down your langauge
[08:30] <ikonia> !guidelines > dongs
[08:30] <dongs> yes of course it is.
[08:30] <ikonia> dongs: read those guidelines on how to behave in ubuntu irc channels before asking any more questions
[08:31] <dongs> ubottu: unless its relevant to what im asking, no.
[08:31] <st__> what a nice excuse not to work, eh?
[08:31] <rww> saw that coming :\
[08:32] <ikonia> Serafeim: ?
[08:32] <ikonia> st__: ?
[08:33] <ikonia> st__: could you please explain that comment
[08:33] <Serafeim> ikonia: freenode chat is not so active
[08:33] <ikonia> Serafeim: it is, hang in there
[08:33] <ikonia> Serafeim: ask how to register in #freenode - not hardware help
[08:34] <Serafeim> ikonia: Ok, i will try it

[08:35] <ikonia> st__: please respond to your private message
[08:36] <st__> ikonia, to kick people instead of help is for the win
[08:36] <ikonia> st__: then you need to drop your attitude also as you are not aware of all the facts.

[08:39] <deryl> got a bit of a problem here. I copied over my system from a rescue rsync i had. now when apparmor tries to start up it says that AppArmor not available as a kernel LSM. this is due to the check in /etc/init.d/apparmor for a mounted securityfs (done with test -d /sys/module/apparmor || exit 0   and with   cut -d" " -f2,3 /proc/mounts | grep -q "^${SECURITYFS} securityfs"'$' )
[08:39] <ikonia> deryl: how is that a problem ?
[08:39] <deryl> however, as shown by 'mount' I do in fact have a securityfs mounted (none on /sys/kernel/security type securityfs (rw)
[08:39] <deryl> )
[08:40] <ikonia> deryl: have you tried the test manually
[08:41] <andycc> deryl: is the securityfs in fstab?
[08:41] <deryl> ikonia ~ its not finding the securityfs mounted. as apparmor_status states
[08:41] <deryl> root@pgplaptop:~# apparmor_status
[08:41] <deryl> apparmor module is loaded.
[08:41] <deryl> apparmor filesystem is not mounted.
[08:41] <ikonia> deryl: did you manually run the test it's using to check for the mount
[08:41] <deryl> yet, there is a mounted securityfs
[08:42] <deryl> yes. and its not showing up
[08:42] <deryl> when it does the grep -q
[08:42] <ikonia> ok - so there is a problem somewhere else then, if the test it uses to check is failing manually
[08:42] <deryl> though grep -q securityfs shows it
[08:43] <deryl> its like the SECURITYFS var is not being populated. but not seeing where that's being fed from
[08:43] <st__> how can I reinstall kernel from livecd?
[08:43] <ikonia> st__: did you read the links for ubuntu behaviour ?
[08:43] <ikonia> st__: and you have been told to ask in #ubuntu+1 for 10.10 support
[08:44] <andycc> st__: probably by chrooting into your existing system and running "apt-get install linux-2.6".
[08:44] <kristiina> Jordan_U: any luck with it?:)
[08:44] <deryl> ok its being set in /etc/apparmor/functions:SECURITYFS="/sys/kernel/security"
[08:44] <Jordan_U> kristiina: No, as far as I can tell your card reader is "Bus 003 Device 002: ID 1bcf:053a Sunplus Innovation Technology Inc.
[08:44] <TexasStorm> Hello
[08:44] <st__> andycc, i'm afraid my target system is so fubar that apt-get is non-fucntional
[08:45] <ikonia> st__: please stop
[08:45] <ikonia> st__: you have been told to ask in #ubuntu+1 for 10.10 support
[08:45] <Serafeim> ikonia: Thanks a lot. I managed to register. I will state my question at the hardware chat room
[08:45] <TexasStorm> How can i run a windows program on ubuntu?
[08:45] <ikonia> Serafeim: well done
[08:45] <Jordan_U> kristiina: But I haven't been able to find any information about getting that device to work with Ubuntu.
[08:45] <ikonia> !wine > TexasStorm
[08:45] <TexasStorm> ty
[08:46] <kristiina> Jordan_U: what if i would download the hardware driver?
[08:46] <deryl> hrmm. here's something. manually I set SECURITYFS=/sys/kernel/security then manually ran cut -d" " -f2,3 /proc/mounts | grep -q "^${SECURITYFS} securityfs"'$' and got nothing back
[08:46] <Jordan_U> kristiina: The problem is finding a linux driver for that device. And there is a chance that none exists.
[08:48] <New2Ubuntu> hi everybody
[08:50] <intok> How can I make the clipboard not suck so hard that it loses its data if the app crashes?
[08:51] <rww> use a clipboard manager
[08:53] <akobed> hello, i'm having difficulties printing bitmaps on 10.04.1 with my old ml-1710. it prints text ok but suddenly one day it stopped printing images. so if i have a pdf file with both text and images, it only prints the text
[08:53] <Kartagis> st__ back. the command is iconv -f ISO-8859-9 -t UTF-9 filename.srt -o filename.srt
[08:54] <akobed> i have removed and readded the printer, reinstalled the programs etc. but so far nothing has worked
[08:54] <Kartagis> st__ and the error is Bus error
[08:55] <New2Ubuntu> where can i report bugs for evolution mail client
[08:55] <Jordan_U> Kartagis: I think you meant "-t UTF-8"
[08:55] <rww> !bug | New2Ubuntu
[08:56] <Jordan_U> Kartagis: Unless you're reffering to the april fools joke :)
[08:56] <Kartagis> Jordan_U yeah, sorry about that
[08:56] <Kartagis> utf-8,
[08:58] <private_meta> Small Q. Got mysql++, c++ mysql adapter, which should normally work, but using ./configure gives me a "No such file or directory" error, any idea what can be the problem there?
[08:59] <ar0nic> hi guys, is there a way to use ubuntu to compile sources instead of using cli
[08:59] <industrial> Where can I find a list of ppa's? PPA's are named so there must be a known list.
[08:59] <ar0nic> ?
[08:59] <iceroot> private_meta: wrong directory for calling ./configure
[08:59] <iceroot> ar0nic: please what?
[08:59] <ar0nic> what?
[08:59] <private_meta> iceroot: shouldn't the folder that has "configure.ac" in it be the right directory?
[08:59] <industrial> ar0nic: you want a gui for compiling? or you want to know how to create packages?
[09:00] <ar0nic> no i have a few sources i need to install
[09:00] <ikonia> ar0nic: what do you need to install
[09:00] <ikonia> ar0nic: make sure there are no ubuntu packages for them
[09:00] <iceroot> private_meta: no, you are calling the file configure with ./configure not configure.ac
[09:00] <ar0nic> i have no net on this pc and its opensll sql* something or the other and another program
[09:00] <ikonia> ar0nic: whoaaa
[09:01] <ikonia> ar0nic: don't install openssl from source
[09:01] <ikonia> ar0nic: don't install mysql from source
[09:01] <ikonia> ar0nic: there are ubuntu packages, use a machine with net access to get the packages and move them to your machine
[09:01] <ar0nic> er maybe im not saying this right uh....the program i need, requires sqlite and openssl
[09:01] <ikonia> !aptoncd | ar0nic
[09:01] <andycc> ar0nic: use Keryx (http://keryxproject.org/) to get the packages+deps
[09:01] <akobed> anyone? how could i find the source of this problem: the printer has with earlier ubuntu versions printed just fine everything, but suddenly one day it stopped printing bitmaps, it will print vector & text just fine (For example the ubuntu printer test page)
[09:01] <private_meta> iceroot: k, that might be a problem, got configure.ac, but no configure
[09:02] <ar0nic> i just downloaded the .tar.gz fromt he websites
[09:02] <ikonia> ar0nic: what's the problem called
[09:02] <ar0nic> isnt it just like make then make file or something
[09:02]  * X_ hates ubuntu
[09:02]  * Xae HATES it
[09:02] <Xae> doesn't support my laptop :|
[09:02] <ikonia> Xae: then don't use it, it's not the law to use it
[09:02] <ikonia> Xae: log a bug for any hardware that is not supported
[09:03] <ar0nic> if i downloaded a .tar.gz and i had to install it, woudnt i just use the make command
[09:03] <ikonia> ar0nic: no
[09:03] <andycc> ar0nic: no, you'd use ./configure, then make, then checkinstall or whatever.
[09:03] <ikonia> ar0nic: a.) what program is it b.) you may want to talk to the program owner (on his website) to get support
[09:03] <ar0nic> then without net axx and having the .tar.gz how would i use it
[09:03] <samosa> Hi
[09:03] <Xae> ikonia, it doesn't support my GPU properly :|
[09:03] <ar0nic> lol it shouldnt matter what program it is
[09:03] <ikonia> Xae: what video card is it ?
[09:03]  * Xae hates the Toshiba L10-154
[09:03] <ar0nic> its for ubuntu/unix/linux
[09:03] <JDT_> hello, I've got a problem getting cpufreq working for frequency scaling on my CPU. The CPU is an Atom 330, which should support it. It appears not to be recognised as supporting cpufreq by the kernel, or at least the modules don'l load. Any ideas as to how to solve this?
[09:03] <ikonia> Xae: please stop with the "/me hates" stuff
[09:03] <samosa> 2 things
[09:04] <iceroot> ar0nic: please anwser the question
[09:04] <ar0nic> it shouldnt matter what program it is
[09:04] <ikonia> ar0nic: then we can't help any more
[09:04] <ar0nic> im just asking what is the easiest way to install a .tar.gz
[09:04] <iceroot> ar0nic: it should
[09:04] <ar0nic> its sqlite
[09:04] <ikonia> ar0nic: please contact the program owner for support
[09:04] <ar0nic> i already answered it
[09:04] <ikonia> ar0nic: it's not
[09:04] <andycc> ar0nic: it does matter. Some programs use different configuration options.
[09:04] <ikonia> ar0nic: you said it needed sqllite
[09:04] <Xae> ikonia, 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02)
[09:04] <iceroot> ar0nic: the easiest way to install a tar.gz is to extract it and look and the README
[09:04] <ikonia> Xae: that should be quite well supported,
[09:04] <andycc> Xae: 855GM is supported.
[09:04] <ar0nic> its a network tools program
[09:04] <Xae> ikonia, not by 10.04
[09:04] <ikonia> Xae: it is
[09:05] <Xae> not.,
[09:05] <ikonia> Xae: what sort of issues are you seeing ?
[09:05] <andycc> Xae: yes it is.
[09:05] <Xae> i have to force it into the old graphics thingy
[09:05] <Xae> and i can't hook up an external monitor
[09:05] <ar0nic> but the directions for that were to use make, im more asking if there was a way to use ubuntu UI to install .tar.gz's
[09:05] <iceroot> ar0nic: no
[09:05] <ikonia> ar0nic: no there is not
[09:05] <Xae> bcuz when i move the mouse on the external monitor, the image distorts
[09:05] <ikonia> ar0nic: there you go, that's the answer "no"
[09:05] <andycc> ar0nic: no, not yet.
[09:05] <ar0nic> or must all of them be done through cli
[09:05] <Xae> also can't use my S-Video
[09:05] <ar0nic> well i asked this first ikonia
[09:05] <ikonia> ar0nic: all through the command line
[09:06] <ar0nic> i just wanted to thorougly explain it..
[09:06] <ikonia> you have the answer
[09:06] <samosa> How is the progress on linux installing without cd? Last time i tryed usb...it took me 3 months to get my pc back to its normal state of mind. And how is the state of ati linux drivers for 4000 series? In 2008, I can verify compizfusion was buggy/unstable. ofc some will say compiz was unstable and buggy to begin with but w/e.
[09:06] <ar0nic> thank you, with that answered what is the easiest way to install these
[09:06] <iceroot> ar0nic: if you will not answer what program it is i guess support ended here, maybe its in the repos? so why fighting with the source
[09:06] <Xae> i also can't use the basic effects
[09:06] <ar0nic> i have no internet on the machine.
[09:06] <Xae> and it's way too slow.
[09:06] <iceroot> ar0nic: and we told you how to handle it without internet
[09:06] <Xae> 9.04 was WAY faster then 10.04
[09:06] <ikonia> Xae: one of the only issues I'm aware of with the intel cards is sometimes it autodetects wrong and you have to force it to use the "intel" (not i810) drive in xorg
[09:06] <ar0nic> normally if i had internet i could use the repos
[09:07] <andycc> samosa: I installed only about 15 systems from USB in the last couple of years.
[09:07] <ikonia> ar0nic: aptoncd as you where told earlier
[09:07] <Jordan_U> ar0nic: Having no internet access makes it *much* harder to install from source than from a .deb package.
[09:07] <samosa> Xae: I just loled
[09:07] <andycc> samosa: I'd say it works quite well.
[09:07] <Xae> ikonia, i don't have a xorg config file.
[09:07] <ikonia> Xae: you shouldn't have one, as in 10.04 it's dynamic, however you can use one to foce configurations
[09:07] <ar0nic> well even if the .tar already has a make in it for make install?
[09:07] <samosa> andycc: did u use wuubi setup? (or watever its called, i dont remember exactly)
[09:07] <ar0nic> excuse my noobness but im doing the best i can
[09:07] <Xae> i forced it to the old driver thing..
[09:08] <ikonia> ar0nic: contact the package owner for support - he can explain it best
[09:08] <Jordan_U> ar0nic: Yes, you need all of the dependencies.
[09:08] <iceroot> ar0nic: the best you can do is to answer our questions and do what we say
[09:08] <andycc> samosa: I always used Unetbootin to transfer to usb. Except for Fedora.
[09:08] <ikonia> Xae: you need to force it to use the intel driver using an xorg.conf
[09:08] <ikonia> Xae: that would be the first thing I'd do
[09:08] <ar0nic> iceroot i quite am =) doin both as well
[09:08] <spinningcompass> ar0nic: Everyone starts somewhere. If people give you static for being new, that's because they have personality disorders and/or bad manners. :)
[09:08] <andycc> !offline > ar0nic
[09:09] <ar0nic> thank you
[09:09] <Xae> ikonia, i re-enabled KMS..
[09:10] <andycc> Xae: ...wait, why would you disable KMS?
[09:10] <ar0nic> since i can use the net on this machine with tethering i have some access to help but on that laptop tethering is just no go
[09:10] <ikonia> Xae: that doesn't matter
[09:10] <ikonia> Xae: I'm suggesting you force the driver to "intel" using an xorg.conf
[09:10] <ar0nic> ubuntu will have none of that with any of my devices that tether
[09:10] <Xae> andycc, bcuz it's disabled in 10.04
[09:10] <andycc> ar0nic: what device are you using to tether?
[09:10] <ikonia> ar0nic: use aptond
[09:10] <Xae> i re-enabled it
[09:11] <samosa> andycc: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UNetbootin ah, is this it? not sure if you have heard of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wubi_%28installer%29 , but last time i used this in 2008, and it was atrocious.
[09:11] <Xae> ikonia, do you have such config files for me?
[09:11] <ikonia> Xae: you just need a base xorg.conf file, and use the line Driver "intel" in the video device section
[09:11] <ikonia> Xae: you can use xorg -configure to get a base/empty config
[09:11] <andycc> samosa: Wubi isn't meant exactly for USB installs, it's meant for installs from Windows. I successfully used it a few times.
[09:11] <Xae> can you guarantee it'll work?
[09:11] <andycc> samosa: works pretty well.
[09:11] <ikonia> Xae: nope,
[09:12] <samosa> Oh i see
[09:12] <Xae> :|
[09:12] <Xae> dun wanna go trough the whole recovery mode hassle again :(
[09:12] <andycc> Xae: just try it.
[09:12] <ikonia> Xae: then stop asking for help
[09:12] <ar0nic> if the tar says it has the instructions to use make then should i assume thats all i need to do for it
[09:12] <ikonia> Xae: it's a known problem, this will remove that issue and take you forward
[09:12] <private_meta> so, if a program using "autoconf" does not have a "configure" file in its sources, what else can i do?
[09:13] <ikonia> private_meta: read the README on how to build it
[09:13] <Xae> ikonia, thanks
[09:13] <private_meta> ikonia: the readme says ./configure
[09:13] <ikonia> private_meta: then contact the source vendor for not supplying configure
[09:13] <samosa> andycc: what if i say install from windows through usb ubuntu ? :S does UBETbooting do that? if not..how do u do it?
[09:13] <ar0nic> ok thanks guys
[09:13] <ar0nic> i guess im just really confused about installing files from source
[09:14] <private_meta> ikonia: apparently it's being used by a lot of people, and noone seems to miss the configure file, and it's not visible as being deleted in the subversion history, that's why I'm confused
[09:14] <st__> ar0nic, you may need to use automake
[09:15] <ikonia> private_meta: you have either a.) downloaded the wrong package b.) the package is corrupted c.) not read the instructions on how to generate a configure file
[09:15] <ar0nic> i can get the instructions on the internet from this pc
[09:15] <samosa> andycc: my mobo/pc is wierd...no matter what i do...whenever i go to boot options tried all 3 usb boot...never does it boot with usb.
[09:15] <ar0nic> does openssl come on ubuntu native?
[09:15] <samosa> maybe i should stick to burning cd's........they always boot
[09:15] <andycc> samosa: use a boot cd/floppy.
[09:15] <JDT_> hello, I've got a problem getting cpufreq working for frequency scaling on my CPU. The CPU is an Atom 330, which should support it. It appears not to be recognised as supporting cpufreq by the kernel, or at least the modules don'l load, at least as far as I can tell. Any ideas as to how to solve this?
[09:15] <samosa> yeah
[09:15] <ar0nic> but if im in a situation where i dont have axx to any internet i just want to learn how to isntall from source files
[09:15] <andycc> samosa: PLOP works perfectly for that purpose.
[09:16] <andycc> ar0nic: you start by reading ./README
[09:16] <Slart> private_meta: what file did you download? mysql++-3.1.0.tar.gz ?
[09:17] <andycc> !checkinstall > ar0nic
[09:17] <private_meta> Slart: I tried the subversion directory and the mysqlpp-snapshot from the mysqlpp website
[09:17] <ar0nic> like whats the difference between pre compiled binaries and a .tar.gz
[09:17] <ar0nic> ?
[09:17] <maedox> private_meta, there is a guide to building packages here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware    It tells you how you go about to make the configure.
[09:18] <Slart> private_meta: from http://tangentsoft.net/mysql++/ ?
[09:18] <spinningcompass> ar0nic: a .tar.gz file is a data file that contains compressed copies of files and directories. Typicall, if it's the source code for a project, you can build the executables by unzipping the "tarball" (as it's often called) and running ./configure; make; make install
[09:18] <private_meta> maedox: doesn't really help
[09:18] <private_meta> Slart: http://gna.org/svn/?group=mysqlpp
[09:19] <private_meta> Slart: that's where the mysql homepage directs you to
[09:19] <xiaoshen> how to detect an usb gsm modem in minicom?
[09:20] <lin> Xchat is cool!
[09:21] <luckymurali> Hi all
[09:21] <Xaevo> ikonia, that did not work
[09:21] <luckymurali> I installed java on ubuntu 10
[09:21] <Xaevo> am in failsafeX mode now
[09:22] <luckymurali> but when i type javac it ask me to install openjdk
[09:22] <private_meta> Slart: although it redirects you to tangentsoft.net for the docs
[09:22] <luckymurali> please help me how can i use sun java on my machine
[09:22] <Slart> private_meta: mm.. I'm checking out the sources at the moment.. I noted that the "stable sources" download link from their site has the configure script included
[09:22] <luckymurali> i dont have internet on my ubuntu machine
[09:23]  * Xaevo is pissed off
[09:23] <private_meta> Slart: great... they don't have a stable link on the page that's linked from mysql, just perfect
[09:23] <ar0nic> if i have no net i cant use/get the libssl-devel what is the best way to get this openssl installed
[09:23] <andycc> !offline > luckymurali
[09:23] <ar0nic> or does anyone know how to tether with an iphone on ubuntu?
[09:24] <Slart> private_meta: http://tangentsoft.net/mysql++/  near the top.. under "Source Code" heading
[09:24] <Xaevo> ikonia, what to do next..
[09:24] <private_meta> Slart: yeah, just downloading it
[09:24] <samosa> do u install desktop or netbook edition on notebook?
[09:24] <luckymurali> andycc, ok thnx
[09:24] <Slart> private_meta: you might want to read the HACKERS.txt file that is included in the svn download
[09:24] <Xaevo> samosa, desktop
[09:25] <Xaevo> andycc, did not work, failsafeX now
[09:25] <ar0nic> !offline
[09:25] <Slart> private_meta: it talks about "Bootstrapping the library".. "When you check out MySQL++ from svn, there are a lot of things "missing" as compared to a distributed tarball, because the svn repository contains only source files, no generated files."
[09:26] <private_meta> Slart: I DID read that, but the bootstrapping somehow didn't really work for me, must'Ve done something wrong
[09:26] <private_meta> Slart: well, they distribute a tar-ball without configure on the gna-page i pasted to you
[09:26] <private_meta> at least they call it that
[09:27] <samosa> why does it say "64-bit - Not recommended for daily desktop usage"? (im on 32bit, so doesn't matter, really)
[09:28] <private_meta> wut? not recommended? I hardly use anything BUT 64bit
[09:28] <Slart> private_meta: yes, but it's still just a tar-ball of the svn.. the "sources tarball" includes some extra files.. including configure, I would guess
[09:28] <private_meta> Slart: apparently, yes
[09:28] <Slart> private_meta, samosa: there is a bug reported about the wording of that.. me and many others are on 64bit and it seems to be working just fine
[09:28] <Xaevo> anyone got tips?
[09:30] <private_meta> Slart: Well, boostrapping the sources from SVN does not work either way, its broken for me. Thanks for the link to the stable version, I wouldn't have looked for it or found it
[09:30] <st__> samosa, because most 64-bit packages are just 32-bit ones recompiled without further testing
[09:30] <Slart> private_meta: I couldn't get the bootstrapping thing to work either, if it's any consolation =)
[09:30] <progre55> hi guys. I'm adding a network printer, but it requires password auth. Having the hardest time finding where to type in the login/pass while adding or configuring printers. Any suggestions, please?
[09:31] <private_meta> Slart: it is, somewhat. It always helps if I'm not the reason it doesn't work ;)
[09:32] <samosa> st__: and thats pretty much why i have not even moved on to windows 64 bit...even if most hardware these days in 64bit capable...whats the point when most software is 32bit port
[09:32] <rww> samosa: because Canonical's webpage writers don't know what they're talking about.
[09:32] <samosa> lol
[09:32] <private_meta> hmm... I'm using Win7 64bit because I don't want PAE, for me it's just fighting symptoms
[09:33] <rww> I'm not kidding. I'd be more charitable, except they've failed to address this in the months since people asked them to change it :\
[09:33] <Xaevo> fuck ubuntu
[09:33] <rww> 64-bit Ubuntu works fine.
[09:33] <rww> Xaevo: Watch your language.
[09:33] <Xaevo> rww, why would i if it's sh*t
[09:34] <private_meta> Slart: "checking" <-- 've been waiting for lines starting with that word until I laid eyes on mysql++ ;)
[09:34] <rww> Xaevo: because if you don't, you're going to find yourself outside this room. You may as well play nice and not waste channel operators' energy.
[09:34] <wakkarto> hi
[09:34] <private_meta> Energy is never wasted, it is only transformed
[09:34] <samosa> hehe
[09:35] <Xaevo> ubuntu just fails for me
[09:35] <private_meta> rww: or do you want to break the law of conservation of energy?
[09:36] <rww> private_meta: The Law of Conservation of Energy doesn't address the fact that different forms of energy have different levels of usefulness.
[09:36] <samosa> private_meta: I think rww  meant wasted as in, transforming into other useless / polluting types of energy ;)
[09:36]  * Xaevo hits his laptop "useless piece of crap"
[09:36] <samosa> rww: gg bro
[09:36] <delac> I'm trying to enable desktop effects for another user (using two accounts at the same time), but the other keeps failing (simply can't enable desktop effects). Heres error message I get from gnome-appearance-properties: http://paste.ubuntu.com/499001/ Any thoughts?
[09:36] <private_meta> samosa: i know ;)
[09:37] <private_meta> Slart: ahahaha... well, I have to say, it's perfect, the stable version does not work with the current g++ compiler
[09:37] <rww> delac: I haven't read up on this in a while, so I may be wrong, but I think that you can't use compositing on more than one simultaneous Xorg session.
[09:37] <Slart> private_meta: hehe.. there's always something..
[09:37] <Quanta> hi, i would like to know if bcwipe is part of ubunto bootcd
[09:37] <private_meta> Slart: gotta see if I can fix that in the source code though
[09:37] <samosa> Xaevo: whats wrong?
[09:38] <Xaevo> samosa, i can't get my video driver to work, except when i use that KM* stuff
[09:38] <Xaevo> and when i use that, it's VERY buggy
[09:38] <Slart> Quanta: I can't find it in the repos at all.. so I guess it isn't available
[09:38] <samosa> is it ati videocard?
[09:38] <delac> rww: this problem happends only when I use radeon drivers. With fglrx drivers it works ok.
[09:38] <vrakesh> Xaveo: whats your HW configuration?
[09:39] <Xaevo> vrakesh, Toshiba Satellite L10-154
[09:39] <rww> ah. never mind me then.
[09:39] <vrakesh> 32 o4 64 bit?
[09:39] <Xaevo> can give you a lspci dump
[09:39] <Xaevo> 32
[09:39] <vrakesh> which graphics card?
[09:39] <Xaevo> Intel 855
[09:39] <Quanta> would it be possible to install it using ubuntu bootcd with out installing ubuntu on the computer?
[09:40] <private_meta> Slart: well, public mailing lists with subversion diffs fixing errors not fixed in the current stable version rock... makes for an easy fix of problems
[09:40] <vrakesh> MB?
[09:40] <vrakesh> Xaveo: whats your RAM size?
[09:40] <Xaevo> vrakesh, 1,5 GB
[09:40] <Xaevo> http://pastebin.com/VmpPaA7p
[09:40] <samosa> Xaevo: thats a pretty bad laptop, i feel sorry for you :(
[09:40] <Slart> Quanta: if you can find a way of installing it on a computer running ubuntu then you can probably follow the same steps to install it on a live cd
[09:40] <Xaevo> 40GB hdd
[09:41] <Xaevo> and a Celeron M 1.4 GHz
[09:41] <vrakesh> graphics card ram size?
[09:41] <Xaevo> vrakesh, pulled from mem.
[09:41] <Xaevo> 32MB
[09:41] <vrakesh> Xaveo: thats not sufficient
[09:41] <Xaevo> vrakesh, what?
[09:42] <vrakesh> Xaveo: try pulling 256MB or more
[09:42] <samosa> vrakesh: does ram size really matter for video card? I have had nvidia 64mb cards pwn 512 mb ati cards in drivers....
[09:42] <vrakesh> 32 MB isnt sufficient
[09:42] <Xaevo> vrakesh, impossible...
[09:42] <Xaevo> it's max is 32MB
[09:42] <Xaevo> it's a laptop
[09:42] <Jordan_U> vrakesh: It is for the *graphics card*.
[09:42] <vrakesh> samosa:graphics card size really matters
[09:42] <Slart> Quanta: there is a regular wipe application available for ubuntu though.. I'm not sure what bcwipe is or what makes it special
[09:43] <samosa> vrakesh: I dont really agree...
[09:43]  * Xaevo is stuck with a useless laptop..
[09:43] <vrakesh> samosa: then why do you eager more graphics card ram size?
[09:43] <vrakesh> then size really doesnt matter at all right
[09:44] <vrakesh> minimum 128MB is recommended for good video effects in ubuntu
[09:44] <Xaevo> vrakesh, bios doesn't allow me to allocate more then 32 MB
[09:44] <Quanta> Start, bcwipe is not so special for me, it is simply something i found in the net. i found also dd, but i am not sure it is really a good free space wiper....
[09:44] <Xaevo> can choose between 8, 16 and 32 mb
[09:44] <samosa> vrakesh: not sure, i guess i got screwed over by companies marketing hype yet again like everyone else. its like cellphones these days with their 8Megapixel cameras. You dont need that, even 2MP would be enough with decent lens and cmos...but i digress....
[09:45] <Jordan_U> Xaevo: Very recently intel has made some changes to allow the use of KMS with intel cards using software rasterization for 3D. It should cut out pretty much all the buggyness though the 3D acceleration won't be great.
[09:45] <Slart> Quanta: dd is just a copying program.. you can use it to write zeros, random stuff or some hard drive image to a drive
[09:45] <vrakesh> samosa: as you said all are good... if you want more effects you ll go for more right
[09:45] <vrakesh> you can expect more from samll
[09:45] <vrakesh> *small
[09:45] <Jordan_U> Xaevo: Unfortunately for that you'll need the latest drivers, even the ones in 10.10 are not new enough.
[09:45] <Slart> Quanta: but there is "wipe" that does the regular, overwrite with different patterns a number of times etc etc
[09:45] <progre55> anybody knows where to type in the login/pass while adding or configuring printers?
[09:45] <Xaevo> Jordan_U, am using KMS, but it fails for me, bcuz i can't hook up an external monitor
[09:46] <Xaevo> and 9.04 worked perfectly on this laptop..
[09:46] <Quanta> Start: ok, and what is the program name?
[09:46] <vrakesh> progre55: are you adding network printers?
[09:46] <Slart> Quanta: "wipe"
[09:47] <Slart> !info wipe | Quanta
[09:47] <mgj> Anyone with ubuntu 10.04 who has this package in their repository: "libmpfr-dev" ?
[09:47] <Xaevo> vrakesh, help?
[09:47] <mgj> i *should* have it, but i dont =(
[09:47] <progre55> vrakesh: yes
[09:48] <simoncpu> behold!!!!
[09:48] <vrakesh> Xaveo: i would say you have low end hardware
[09:48] <vrakesh> progre55: it wont ask for password right?
[09:48] <vrakesh> just enter the IP address
[09:48] <vrakesh> it will search for you
[09:49] <simoncpu> < vrakesh> Xaveo: i would say you have low end hardware <-- that's what she said
[09:49] <Xaevo> vrakesh, it's a 2003 laptop
[09:49] <wolfric__> if i have a tared file and you normally use root to make install etc. can i compile it to my own folder and run it there? instead of installing to the system
[09:49] <vrakesh> simoncpu: oh.... i havent read it... sorry
[09:50] <samosa> vrakesh: I have seriously seen 64 mb high end cards outclass 256mb low end gpu's in 3d rendering at low res... @ 800x600....you dont really need much ram...unless your on some beastly resolution like 1080p.
[09:50] <progre55> vrakesh: it has found the printer.. just dont know where to type in the password.. and it seems to be sending printing jobs, but not printing anything..
[09:50] <vrakesh> progre55: no need for password... has the admin set the password?
[09:51] <progre55> vrakesh: yes. and a friend of mine has sat a password on his mac, and it's working properly..
[09:51] <Xaevo> i hate 10.04... think i am going to revert back to 910
[09:51] <Xaevo> 9.10*
[09:52] <sburjan> wait for the 10.10
[09:52] <simoncpu> the binary release
[09:52] <xbonesx> Is their a way to get 'root' privileges when searching with nautulis?
[09:52] <Xaevo> sburjan, is that going to fix my problem?
[09:52] <xbonesx> Xaevo: i thought so too, but 9.04 had more issue and what is your issue with 10.04?
[09:53] <st__> xbonesx, gksudo (a certain permutation of 'gnome', 'find', 'files' words separated with dashes)
[09:53] <xbonesx> st__: how long does the permissions stay?
[09:54] <xbonesx> 10-15 minutes?
[09:54] <vrakesh> default 15
[09:54] <xbonesx> so just type gksudo in the terminal and thats it?
[09:55] <st__> how to run upstart manually?
[09:57] <mgj> I'm getting unresolvable dependency errors when trying to install "libmpc-dev" -  Depends: libmpfr-dev  but it is not installable. Why do i not have this package in 10.04? How do i solve this problem?
[09:57] <xbonesx> st__: typing 'gksudo' in the terminal didnt do the trick, im still locked out of the folder "root"???
[09:58] <Krishnandu> xbonesx, gksu nautilus
[09:58] <st__> xbonesx, had you been asked for password? also use Alt-F2 run window instead
[09:58] <Xaevo> fuck this
[09:58] <Xaevo> @.@
[09:58] <Xaevo> i hate ubuntu
[09:59] <st__> what code should I enter in /etc/shadow to set password to empty?
[09:59] <Xaevo> for not supporting my laptop in 10.04 >..<
[09:59] <vrakesh> st__: why you want to make the password empty?
[10:00] <st__> vrakesh, because I cannot compute password hashes in my head
[10:00] <st__> right now there is "!" what does it mean?
[10:00] <r45c4l_> hello, this is the o/p of my lspci, can anyone help me to configure my wifi
[10:01] <r45c4l_> http://dpaste.com/247791/
[10:01] <vrakesh> r45c4l_: whats the o/p of iwlist wlan0 scan?
[10:01] <r45c4l_> 2 sec
[10:02] <vrakesh> did you get any o/p?
[10:03] <sinisterstuf> Where are the mobile broadband settings for different providers stored in Ubuntu?
[10:03] <soreau> Xaevo: Which version of ubuntu are you currently running?
[10:03] <sinisterstuf> 10.04
[10:03] <st__> how to run upstart manually?
[10:03] <rww> sinisterstuf: looks like it might be /usr/share/mobile-broadband-provider-info/serviceproviders.xml
[10:03] <r45c4l_> this is the o/[p of iwlist
[10:04] <r45c4l_> http://dpaste.com/247794
[10:04] <r45c4l_> btw, i am not on ubuntu, but on BT
[10:04] <xbonesx> Krishnandu: i didnt get your reply if there was one, i was disconnected from the server...
[10:04] <sinisterstuf> rww thanks a lot!
[10:04] <rww> !derivatives | r45c4l_
[10:05] <Krishnandu> xbonesx, use gksu nautilus
[10:05] <st__> what was backtrack made for?
[10:05] <vrakesh> r45c4l_: command is "iwlist waln0 scan
[10:05] <r45c4l_> vrakesh, 1 sec
[10:05] <Krishnandu> xbonesx, that would help to browse filesystem as root user
[10:05] <xbonesx> !End-Of-Life
[10:05] <Xaevo> soreau,  10.04
[10:06] <sinisterstuf>  rww if I write xml for the service providers in my country, can it be incorporated in future versions of Ubuntu?
[10:06] <soreau> Xaevo: What happens when you plug in the second monitor?
[10:06] <rww> sinisterstuf: not sure. you could try filing a bug with the xml against the mobile-broadband-provider-info package
[10:06] <Xaevo> soreau, nothing, have to manually detect it, then log out and log back in
[10:06] <r45c4l_> vrakesh, this is the o/p
[10:06] <r45c4l_> http://dpaste.com/247800/
[10:07] <soreau> Xaevo: After that does it work normally? (ie. is auto-detection the only problem?)
[10:07] <sinisterstuf>  rww thanks for your help
[10:07] <uLinux> what is the command to see network connections?
[10:07] <xbonesx> ifconfig
[10:07] <uLinux> no that
[10:07] <steveccc> does anyone know if there is a video capture program available for ubuntu which could strip video out of a web page and save it as a file?
[10:08] <vrakesh> r45c4l_: you are not following me... the command is "sudo iwlist wlan0 scan"... enter whatever is there in double quote
[10:08] <Xaevo> soreau, no, when i move the mouse, the image flickers and distorts
[10:08] <soreau> uLinux: Do you mean wireless access points?
[10:08] <RockMeAmadeus> I just booted up my 10.04, and I get nothing but the shell. No gnome? What should I do?
[10:08] <uLinux> soreau: I mean internet connections ip addresses .. ports
[10:08] <r45c4l_> sorry let me do it again
[10:08] <Xaevo> RockMeAmadeus, did you install the server  version?
[10:08] <uLinux> active connections
[10:08] <Krishnandu> RockMeAmadeus, startx
[10:08] <soreau> Xaevo: Are you using desktop effects?
[10:08] <RockMeAmadeus> Xaevo: no.. I was just using gnome a few minutes ago
[10:09] <Krishnandu> RockMeAmadeus, sudo startx
[10:09] <Xaevo> soreau, no, can enable them but they automatically disable
[10:09] <RockMeAmadeus> ok I'll will return
[10:09] <xbonesx> uLinux: oh you want to know what connections are currently established???
[10:09] <soreau> Krishnandu: Do not tell people to run startx with sudo please
[10:09] <Xaevo> in 9.04 i could use the desktop wall, but in 10.04 not
[10:09] <uLinux> yes xbonesx
[10:09] <soreau> that's unnecessary
[10:09] <Krishnandu> soreau, why so..??
[10:09] <xbonesx> uLinux: as in what website ip are you connected to and what programs are using the network?
[10:10] <uLinux> xbonesx: yeah
[10:10] <fratzbc> anybody expert with NDP (neighbor discovery) for ipv6?
[10:10] <Alchimista> hi there, my ubuntu got crazy, i can't open folders, seems that my nautilus stoped working, any idea?
[10:10] <st__> how to run upstart manually?
[10:10] <Krishnandu> soreau, please dont mind, I don't know. Can you please explain the reason..??
[10:10] <soreau> Xaevo: I think the advancements of the intel driver has made some changes that may not support older cards as well
[10:10] <uLinux> xbonesx: ip address port and programs would be nice
[10:11] <r45c4l_> vrakesh, this is the o/p of the command
[10:11] <r45c4l_> http://dpaste.com/247801/
[10:11] <Xaevo> soreau, it pisses me off, can i use the graphics driver from 9.04?
[10:11] <vrakesh> r45c4l_, thats gud
[10:12] <vrakesh> try sudo iwconfig wlan0 <your wifi essid>
[10:12] <xbonesx> uLinux: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/bandwidth-monitoring-tools-for-linux.html
[10:12] <r45c4l_> okk vrakesh 1 sec
[10:12] <soreau> Xaevo: Not likely, since X, the driver, mesa and the kernel are fairly tightly integrated to talk to the hardware
[10:12] <soreau> Xaevo: I do seem to recall some downgrading guides though.. try googling
[10:13] <Krishnandu> soreau, you didn't answered me..!!
[10:13] <Xaevo> soreau, i am sick of ubuntu 10.xx
[10:13] <Xaevo> Krishnandu, bcuz you should use sudo as less as possible
[10:13] <vrakesh> Xaevo: have patience
[10:13] <xbonesx> Xaevo: what card do you have?
[10:13] <soreau> Krishnandu: You shouldn't run any user command with sudo
[10:13] <vrakesh> one day u ll get everything worked
[10:13] <Xaevo> xbonesx, intel 855
[10:13] <Xaevo> 855GM
[10:13] <Krishnandu> soreau, Xaevo Ohh..!! Ok..!! :)
[10:14] <soreau> Krishnandu: Making a habit of running commands with sudo where not needed can cause permissions and/or security issues
[10:14] <Krishnandu> soreau, Ok..!! Thank you..!! )
[10:14] <Krishnandu> :)
[10:14] <uLinux> xbonesx: ok tks

[10:14] <Xaevo> soreau, http://pastebin.com/VmpPaA7p
[10:15] <Krishnandu> soreau, actually I got this "X: user not authorized to run the X server, aborting.". So I told him to run it with sudo
[10:15] <handjob> Hi. Does 10.04 uses multi-threading by default?
[10:15] <soreau> Xaevo: The output of 'xrandr -q' might be of more interest
[10:16] <xbonesx> uLinux: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/bandwidth-monitoring-tools-for-ubuntu-users.html
[10:16] <xbonesx> uLinux: that one is specifically for ubunut
[10:16] <rww> handjob: Linux in general is multithreading, yes.
[10:16] <xbonesx> ubuntu*
[10:16] <fratzbc> anybody expert with NDP (neighbor discovery) for ipv6?
[10:17] <xbonesx> Xaevo: still here?
[10:17] <uLinux> xbonesx: i know .. now i have to choose
[10:18] <uLinux> xbonesx: do you use any of those apps?
[10:18] <handjob> rww: Thanks for answer. Is there any way to cat some file and see something like "multithreading: on"? I may be paranoid but I always like to see the proof.
[10:18] <xbonesx> lol many to choose from too lol
[10:18] <r45c4l_> vrakesh, i am sorry but i am not able to figure out my ssid
[10:18] <r45c4l_> can u help  me in that
[10:19] <vrakesh> what is the name of your wifi connection?
[10:19] <r45c4l_> h4ckb0x
[10:19] <vrakesh> so "iwconfig wlan0 essid h4ckb0x"
[10:19] <xbonesx> Xaevo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=308644
[10:19] <r45c4l_> okk,let me try
[10:20] <rww> handjob: "lscpu | grep Thread" will show how many threads it detected on your CPU, if that's what you're asking?
[10:20] <turtle__> ? j#compiz
[10:21] <handjob> rww: If detected = used then Yes, it is. Thank You again.
[10:21] <airtonix> using 10,04, and trying to install gparted with synaptic , i get this message : gparted: Depends: libparted0 but it is not going to be installed
[10:22] <xbonesx> Xaevo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/ipn2220
[10:22] <xbonesx> Xaevo: that should help you with your card
[10:23] <xbonesx> !seen Xaevo
[10:23] <handjob> rww: Strange there is no "Thread" present in cpuinfo, yet I am sure mt is available (detects proc0 and 1 yet cores = 1).
[10:24] <xbonesx> !ubottu
[10:25] <volodya> What is the preferred MIDI sequencer these days? timidity, fluidsynth, or something new entirely?
[10:25] <rww> handjob: Linux treats CPUs with hyperthreading the same way that it treats multi-core processors, so it shows them the same.
[10:26] <rww> it is very confusing, though :(
[10:26] <handjob> rww: Thanks again for putting some light on the topic.
[10:26] <Xaevo> xbonesx, why do you give me stuff for my wifi card? :P
[10:27] <thune3> airtonix: maybe try command line "apt-get install gparted" and see if you get a more informative error message
[10:27] <airtonix> thune3, same error
[10:27] <thune3> airtonix: does it tell you what is conflicting?
[10:27] <xbonesx> Xaevo: what was your issue? thought it was the card...

[10:29] <handjob> Can someone recommend me working tray mail notification (not gmail specified)? mail-notification (or something) = segmentation fault while cgmail = unable to work with gnome keyring etc?
[10:29] <Xaevo> xbonesx, am gonna build my own distro..
[10:30] <xbonesx> Xaevo: your card is old probably why your having issues...
[10:30] <Xaevo> xbonesx, it's from 2003
[10:30] <thune3> airtonix: this thread suggest running "apt-get install libparted0" first  (and some other suggestions if that doesn't work): https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/parted/+bug/535368
[10:31] <xbonesx> Xaevo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1472282

[10:37] <mgj> I have found several guides which tells me that the package "libmpfr-dev" is in lucid. However, i do not have this package. Can anyone please check if they have this package? Also, i have pasted my sources.list here: http://pastebin.com/vK7NQShE

[10:40] <ThisDarkTao> hi everyone, I am trying to enable bitmapped fonts for my gnome-terminal, as I prefer non-antialiased fonts, can anyone help me?
[10:40] <xbonesx> Xaevo: did those links help you out, i didnt really read them, i just did a google search... lol
[10:41] <Xaevo> am reading em, but i've already read em.
[10:41] <thune3> airtonix: i didn't read the whole thing, i assumed there was more (it also seemed like a apt-get dist-upgrade might do something i didn't read it all). Apparently this is an issue with systems that have been upgraded (as opposed to fresh installs). I'm not clear on the above output, is there an issue?
[10:41] <airtonix> thune3, i never do upgrades
[10:41] <airtonix> ever
[10:41] <yrth> hi guys, I know this is probably a wrong channel, but the other one is very silent... I'm having problems with matlab installation on my ubuntu 10.04. Can anybody help me out with it? Cheers!
[10:41] <thune3> airtonix: did you install packages from an out-of-repo source?
[10:42] <horseatingweeds> mgj: I see libmpfr-dev through synaptic
[10:42] <xbonesx> Xaevo: you just have to keep searching different search credentials, im sure you'll find something that will help you
[10:43] <mgj> horseatingweeds, what the.... Would you mind pasting your /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[10:44] <airtonix> thune3, http://dpaste.com/247810/ << last operation of removing libparted0debian1 indicates _many_ packages rely on libparted0debian1
[10:44] <ibrahim-kasem> Hi, I have windows 7 installed on a VB, how can browse files on a usb flash disc on the VM?
[10:45] <airtonix> thune3, although, reading that list... i can't imagine why for example talika or gnome-color-chooser would rely on libparted
[10:46] <airtonix> ibrahim-kasem, it involves creating a virtual proxy object as root (then requiring you to run VB as root)
[10:47] <horseatingweeds> mgj: http://pastebin.com/DRQgCa8X
[10:47] <thune3> airtonix: let me look at a few things. I'm glad you are not someone you just selects Y when an unexpectedly substantial remove list is presented.
[10:47] <st__> when I'm typing 'startx' i'm getting error 'no screens found', why it's this?
[10:47] <mgj> horseatingweeds, thanks a lot!
[10:47] <luckymurali> I don't have internet but I have the installation file of sun java(jdk) and I installed on ubuntu 10.04
[10:48] <horseatingweeds> mgj: welcome
[10:48] <airtonix> ibrahim-kasem, you also need to be using the non OS version of virtualbox.
[10:48] <st__> oh and here's (EE) No drivers available. error too, what does it mean?
[10:48] <luckymurali> I installed java but after that when i type javac it says,The program 'javac' can be found in the following packages:
[10:48] <luckymurali>  * openjdk-6-jdk
[10:49] <luckymurali> please help me
[10:49] <jrib> st__: why are you running startx?  Ubuntu uses gdm by default
[10:49] <st__> jrib it doesn't start for some reason
[10:49] <jrib> luckymurali: how did you install java?
[10:49] <luckymurali> after i installed that jdk-6u21-linux-i586.bin file
[10:49] <jrib> st__: what ubuntu did you install?
[10:50] <jrib> !java | luckymurali
[10:50] <luckymurali> jrib, for executing java files
[10:50] <st__> jrib desktop of course
[10:50] <jrib> st__: what video card do you have?
[10:50] <airtonix> st__, try  : sudo service gdm stop && sudo service gdm start
[10:50] <X_> grrrr
[10:51] <st__> jrib radeon <some 4 digits here>
[10:51] <jrib> st__: what version of ubuntu desktop?
[10:51] <st__> jrib lts
[10:51] <jrib> st__: too vague
[10:51] <st__> jrib there's only 1 LTS version
[10:51] <jrib> st__: no :/
[10:52] <luckymurali> jrib, i dont have internet
[10:52] <luckymurali> and im using putty to connect the machine
[10:52] <jrib> luckymurali: download the packages on a system with internet
[10:52] <jrib> !offline > luckymurali
[10:52] <luckymurali> yes i downloaded
[10:52] <thune3> airtonix: you have lucid-proposed enabled which is causing a conflict because libparted0debian1 (in main) requires (= 2.2-5ubuntu5). I wonder if you disabled lucid-proposed and installed gparted, that would be ok.
[10:52] <jrib> luckymurali: you downloaded some bin, I have no clue what it does
[10:52] <airtonix> ibrahim-kasem, the other option (if your HOST is linux) is to simply created a VB shared folder for /media, then when you plug in your usb drive in the HOST machine that folder will contain the usb drive
[10:53] <airtonix> thune3, ok will try
[10:53] <karlo> how I can upgrade firefox ?
[10:53] <jrib> karlo: update-manager

[10:53] <st__> airtonix, gdm-binary is running but no screen
[10:54] <Alchimista> my nautilus isn't working, i had unistall it, reinstall and nothin, what can i do?
[10:54] <st__> jrib obvioulsy my card is supported
[10:54] <jrib> luckymurali: why don't you use the packages ubottu told you about?  I know for sure those will work.  With the bin files, maybe they work, maybe they don't.  If they work, maybe they put the files in some strange places so you can't just type "javac" but have to find the absolute path for it
[10:54] <jrib> st__: why is that obvious?
[10:54] <st__> Alchimista, run it in terminal and observe errors
[10:54] <jrib> st__: and  what version of ubuntu are you running?
[10:55] <jrib> !version | st__
[10:55] <ServerTech|Lapto> Hello, my server (has ubuntu desktop edition) has failed to login anyway... So im thinking of installing the Server Edition... Can we get GUI maybe GNOME on the server edition?
[10:55] <karlo> jrib, nothing for update in update manager..
[10:55] <jrib> karlo: that means you have the latest firefox in the repositories
[10:55] <st__> jrib because it was working with each and every xorg since 2008, and its 10.4.1 lts
[10:55] <jrib> ServerTech|Lapto: yes, just install it
[10:55] <Alchimista> st__: how can i do that? I only now how to lunch it from terminal
[10:55] <jrib> st__: that doesn't make it obvous that your card would be supported
[10:55] <Alchimista> st__: (nautilus:1993): Unique-DBus-WARNING **: Error while sending message: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
[10:55] <ServerTech|Lapto> jrib: What do you mean by just install it
[10:55] <luckymurali> jrib, i dont have internet on that machine
[10:56] <jrib> !software > ServerTechLaptop
[10:56] <jrib> !gnome > ServerTechLaptop
[10:56] <luckymurali> is it possible to select like that to install
[10:56] <ServerTechLaptop> !software
[10:56] <ServerTechLaptop> !gnome
[10:56] <st__> Alchimista, i'm afraid your system has worse problems than nautilus
[10:56] <jrib> ServerTechLaptop: though if you're going to install gnome anyway, you should just install the desktop edition
[10:56] <ServerTechLaptop> jrib: I have it now it has failed to login and i better use the server edition now
[10:57] <Alchimista> st__: :S format: should work it :s
[10:57] <ServerTechLaptop> Gives a way no. of errors on login it never logs in
[10:57] <jrib> luckymurali: you said this already.  Like I said, download the package from a machine that does have internet.  You can grab packages at packages.ubuntu.com or with one of the methods ubottu told you about before in the !offline factoid
[10:57] <airtonix> thune3, well, infact i did not have security, updates, backports or proposed enabled....
[10:58] <airtonix> thune3, but
[10:58] <karlo> jrib, Version 4.0 is headed for an October or November 2010 release :D
[10:58] <jrib> luckymurali: if you insist on using the .bin, then you need to read their documentation and see what exactly they do and where exactly they install stuff
[10:58] <luckymurali> jrib, I did exactly wat they said
[10:58] <jrib> luckymurali: and?
[10:58] <luckymurali> and the other problem is im using putty
[10:58] <luckymurali> it said installation sucessfully
[10:59] <jrib> luckymurali: so where do the .bins install to exactly?
[10:59] <luckymurali> and created jdk folder
[10:59] <jrib> !enter | luckymurali
[10:59] <luckymurali> in the same folder where the .bin file resides
[10:59] <airtonix> thune3, enabling security and updates helped me get past this problem
[11:00] <tjc> hi guys
[11:00] <thune3> airtonix: security and updates not enabled!!!?!
[11:00] <airtonix> thune3, i know, a totaly shameful situation
[11:01] <jrib> luckymurali: if the .bin installs to current working directory, then surely javac would not be in your path...
[11:01] <jrib> !ati > st__
[11:01] <luckymurali> jrib, now what i need to do , pls help me
[11:02] <st__> jrib my card is for opensource radeon driver now
[11:02] <jrib> luckymurali: my suggestion is that you use the packages ubottu told you about as then it will "just work"
[11:02] <jrib> st__: make sure you have xserver-xorg-video-radeon installed?
[11:03] <luckymurali> jrib,sorry i really dont know how to use the packages in text mode
[11:03] <luckymurali> please help me
[11:03] <jrib> luckymurali: you can install .deb packages using dpkg or gdebi
[11:03] <luckymurali> ok
[11:03] <st__> it's still (EE) no drivers available :(
[11:04] <sunwear> 有中国的吗，说句中文我测试下能看到么。

[11:05] <airtonix> !paste
[11:05] <angelete2> hi
[11:05] <airtonix> st__, im not sure if pastebinit has been fixed yet, but you should try that
[11:05] <angelete2> does anybody know project-open??
[11:05] <jrib> angelete2: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[11:06] <ulziibuyan> !anybody > angelete2
[11:06] <st__> btw is (EE) open /dev/fb0: no such file or directory normal?

[11:07] <guest7845> Hi

[11:32] <vnc> tas: have you searched for the computer using the nokia?
[11:32] <tas> vnc, yea I did
[11:32] <tas> vnc, it did not show up the device...
[11:33] <tas> vnc, but when i open bluetooth here on computer, it says its turned on, because I can see it showing "Turn off bluetooth"
[11:34] <vnc> tas: do you have any other bluetooth enabled device to test if its the computer end or awkward bluetooth protocol stacks?
[11:34] <dragon> hi there
[11:34] <sectorb> tas: what version of ubuntu you running?
[11:34] <Guest2518> somebody knows about creating .deb files?
[11:34] <tas> vnc, I don't have it right now.
[11:35] <jrib> !packaging | Guest2518
[11:35] <tas> vnc, and I have 9.10
[11:35] <Guest2518> i'd like to find some docs about how to build .deb files out of my projects
[11:36] <gnomefreak> Guest2518: the links have been given to you
[11:36] <Guest2518> just a moment
[11:36] <gnomefreak> they will help you
[11:36] <tas> sectorb, i got 9.10 ubuntu
[11:36] <Guest2518> i just installed xchat on this ubuntu machine... and it's messed up :/ (default installation sucks)
[11:36] <tas> sorry for late reply >.<
[11:36] <Guest2518> browser is not set by default installation
[11:37] <iflema> ubuntu basically..... use the livecd to identify your video hardware and see (web search) if others are having dramas with it and ubuntu.... (for a good start) a post on the forums may be required AND knowing a few specs and searching about them means your better armed if ya need to hang here......
[11:37] <tas> oh and anyone please tell me how to increase voice of my headphone? I have put it max
[11:37] <tas> and its still really low...
[11:37] <Guest2518> hmpf
[11:38] <Guest2518> doesn't work... has the ubuntu version of xchat some special patches applied?
[11:38] <Guest2518> i can't set links to open in firefow
[11:38] <marto> The laptop I'm thinking of getting has an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5430, is this supported or should I avoid it?
[11:39] <vnc> tas, it would be best to try another bluetooth device to ensure the computer end is working as some devices dont see each other due to the bluetooth firmware they run
[11:39] <gnomefreak> Guest2518: set firefox as default browser in System > preferences>preferred app
[11:39] <ppq> marto, you can use the binary drivers provided by amd (but please install them out of the ubuntu repo - package fglrx)
[11:39] <purple101> When I try and boot into Ubuntu (10.04), all I see is a blank purple screen. What can I do to fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[11:39] <Guest2518> this is already the case
[11:39] <gnomefreak> Guest2518: Xchat does not decide on default browser
[11:39] <tas> vnc, >.< ok
[11:39] <tas> vnc, thankyou btw
[11:40] <st__> purple101, remove 'quiet nosplash' from command line and tell what you see then
[11:40] <Guest2518> hm... i can't find "preferred app"... how did they translate this in the German version?
[11:40] <marto> ppq, cool, so everything should work ok, 3d, compitz etc?
[11:40] <gnomefreak> Guest2518: you are on gnome?
[11:41] <Guest2518> ah okay... "Standard-Komponenten"... rogl
[11:41] <Guest2518> nah, KDE4
[11:41] <ppq> marto, the free radeonhd driver delivered with ubuntu doesn't support 3d acceleration. with fglrx, it'll work fine i guess
[11:41] <hmca> hello world,  find * -type f -name '*' -exec grep foobar {} \;   , how to also see the file/path in order to do a mv ?
[11:41] <purple101> st_: How do I do that? I use grub to choose which OS to boot.
[11:41] <marto> ppq, thanks
[11:41] <gnomefreak> ah dont know where they stashed it than
[11:41] <ppq> marto, i meant, radoenhd doesn't support acceleration for hx5xxx cards
[11:42] <Guest2518> ah... much better now
[11:42] <jrib> hmca: you should just tell us what you want to accomplish (and you * there is probably not doing what you want)
[11:42] <Guest2518> what is !backports doing?
[11:42] <valil> who is this
[11:43] <valil> hi andria
[11:43] <tripelb> I learn about this, try to use it later in the day, fail.  ??  $ updatedb        updatedb: can not open a temporary file for `/var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db'
[11:43] <valil> how do u do
[11:44] <ppq> tripelb, you need to run it with sudo
[11:44] <tripelb> ppq TY
[11:44] <hmca> jrib:  recovered many deleted files from ext3 (photorec..), Maildir/Sent\ Emails, i only whant the files that contain something like from: foobar and them mv them to other dir.
[11:44] <reuss_> hi, I installed ltsp on ubuntu with two network interfaces, one fixed ip on nw 192.168.1.0, the other to get dhcp address and it seems that the latter gets its address from the first one and there is no outside network connection now. how to prevent this?
[11:44] <st__> why almost each software install have 'running depmod... building initrd...' 5 minute stuff?
[11:44] <jbl_> hmca: use the -H option of grep
[11:45] <jrib> hmca: so just use grep, find isn't needed here
[11:45] <tripelb> grep find search locate :: my head spins
[11:46] <tripelb> at least I (think I) understand grep
[11:47] <hmca> jrib: i have 118 000 files , "Argument list too long": Beyond Arguments and Limitations
[11:47] <hmca> jrib: -H works great
[11:47] <jrib> hmca: what did you run exactly?
[11:48] <Guest2518> one question
[11:48] <valil> hi i am the new guy for this network
[11:48] <Guest2518> upon reading they say you "have" to use launchpad
[11:48] <valil> any body guide me
[11:48] <Guest2518> is that right?
[11:48] <valil> i dont know how to use xchat
[11:48] <Guest2518> it's just that my code resides elsewhere and should stay there
[11:48] <hmca> jrib: think it was something like ls */* | grep, find solves my prob with the 118 000 files
[11:48] <st__> could anyone chack which package /bin/mapdevfs belongs to?
[11:48] <juk> how do I free up my /var it's 100% I dedicated to it 1G i thought would be enough, Im not running mail server
[11:49] <jrib> hmca: just use grep -Rl what_you_search_for where_you_want_to_search | xargs
[11:50] <juk> apt stores 700M cache in there what should i do???
[11:50] <quiescens> juk: you can do apt-get clean if you don't mind redownloading them if you ever need to reinstall the packages
[11:50] <juk> and 300M under /var/lib !!!
[11:51] <purple101> st_: How do I remove 'quiet nosplash' from the command line?
[11:51] <erUSUL> purple101: edit /etc/default/grub and then run « sudo update-grub »
[11:53] <Guest60285> ashish
[11:53] <visof> hello
[11:53] <thune3> st__: just curious, are you running a custom kernel? does that appear to be related to the initrd depmod overkill?
[11:53] <visof> is ubuntu 10.10 beta good to install ?
[11:53] <visof> or just use 10.04 ?
[11:53] <st__> thune3, no, generic one
[11:53] <st__> visof, i wou;dn't say so
[11:53] <Guest60285> I installed ubuntu 10.04
[11:54] <juk> quiescens: yeah did the trick for next reinstall I should note to make 3G at least
[11:54] <hmca> jrib: aparently the undelete pro names emails as .imm (internet mail message?) , so its getting easyer
[11:54] <visof> Guest2518, but i feel beta is more faster than 10.04
[11:55] <vnc> visof: i am running 10.10 seems fine other than the wireless connection drops and keeps asking for the decryption key,
[11:55] <undef> moin
[11:55] <Guest60285> I failed to play vcd in ubuntu 10.04.It also not copying files from vcd
[11:55] <visof> vnc, i observed that too , did you report that problem ?
[11:56] <ppq> visof, you should stick to 10.04 if this is not a testing machine
[11:56] <Guest60285> no I dont know how to
[11:56] <visof> ppq, why ?
[11:56] <purple101> erUSUL: /etc/default/grub doens't exist. Also, how is removing 'quiet nosplash' going to stop it from crashing on boot?
[11:56] <Guest60285> this is my personal computer
[11:56] <erUSUL> purple101: what version of ubuntu?
[11:56] <Guest60285> ubuntu 10.04
[11:57] <ppq> visof, 10.04 is stable. 10.10 may be not
[11:57] <vnc> visof: not yet, mostly because it keeps dropping and preventing me
[11:57] <purple101> erUSUL: 10.04
[11:57] <erUSUL> purple101: fresh install or actualized from a old version?
[11:57] <Guest60285> I tried evedy thing but not able to play or copy file from vcd
[11:57] <juk> source code package, doesn't have a Makefile, possible to generate?
[11:57] <plitter> I have a problem with my trackpad. I have the ubuntu 10.04.1 64 bit and sony vaio vpcf12, which is supposed to have alps touchpad. But it is only registered as ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse. Any idea how to fix it?
[11:57] <purple101> erUSUL: Upgraded from older versions.
[11:58] <st__> juk, does it have makefile.am or something like this?
[11:58] <ppq> visof, if you just need the newest software, you better try to find backports for 10.04.
[11:58] <erUSUL> purple101: then maybe you still use grub1 in which case you have to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:58] <Guest60285> how can I play vcd and copy them to my computer
[11:59] <st__> !piracy
[11:59] <purple101> erUSUL: Yep, that looks right. Any idea why removing 'quiet nosplash' is going to make a difference?
[11:59] <K10> playing a own vcd is not legal?
[12:00] <st__> copying bought vcd is illegal
[12:00] <ppq> Guest60285, if this a legal vcd, you can simply copy the avseq.dat (don't know the filename is exactly) to your pc and rename it to somemovie.mpg
[12:00] <erUSUL> purple101: dunno what the original problem was. removeing that lets you see all the debug/informative messages from the system during boot so you maybe can see wht the problem is
[12:00] <Guest60285> I bought dvd from market and that is legal.I want to copy it for my personal use
[12:00] <vnc> K10: as far as i am aware films do not come in VCD format
[12:01] <purple101> erUSUL: In my grub setup, it has 'quiet splash' instead of nosplash. Does this make a difference?
[12:01] <erUSUL> purple101: quiet splash is the default
[12:01] <Fudge> sudo aptitude purge jamiewan
[12:01] <Fudge> :p
[12:01] <purple101> erUSUL: But to see the debug messages, I should remove quiet splash?
[12:01] <erUSUL> purple101: yes
[12:02] <Guest60285> then in which format they come.I have a mouser bear vcd film
[12:02] <erUSUL> and run « sudo update-grub »
[12:02] <erUSUL> purple101: the line in menu.lst is this « # defoptions=quiet splash »
[12:02] <LjL> st__: it isn't really.
[12:02] <leyus> hi
[12:02] <Guest60285> what is going on here I am not understanding.
[12:02] <leonid44>  /join #ubuntu-il
[12:02] <leyus> I have script
[12:02] <LjL> st__: making an archival copy of something you bought is hardly illegal (unless you break copy protection while doing so, thanks to the recent law changes)
[12:02] <Guest60285> none solved my problem
[12:02] <leyus> i want it started at system start
[12:03] <st__> erUSUL, how do you do these sexy quotes?
[12:03] <leyus> system>preferences>startup applications
[12:03] <erUSUL> st__: in my keyboard is AltGr + z and x
[12:03] <ppq> Guest60285, did you try copying avseq.dat to your hard disk?
[12:03] <leyus> now what should i wirite? beause when i put only script name it doesnt start
[12:03] <purple101> erUSUL: But I'm not inside that same installation of Ubuntu to which I am editing grub? I'm on a Live CD at the moment. Presumably sudo update-grup won't work then?
[12:04] <vnc> LjL: depends on the country you are in
[12:04] <maedox> leyus, you need to input the full path or the relative path from your home directory.
[12:04] <rawky> Hey guys, hello to all. Could I please get some apache help?
[12:04] <erUSUL> purple101: you would have to 1) chroot to the install to run the update-grub or 2) edit the kernel line of the entry you are insterested in 3) edit the entry during b oot in the grub menu
[12:04] <leyus> amedox thank you
[12:04] <rawky> I installed LAMP via tasksel, then phpmyadmin via Synaptic
[12:05] <ppq> purple101, you can chroot in your installed ubuntu (after mounting important directories such as /dev etc). then, editing /etc/default/grub shows effect
[12:05] <rawky> Then:
[12:05] <rawky> If you get a 404 error upon visiting http://localhost/phpmyadmin: You will need to configure apache2.conf to work with Phpmyadmin.
[12:05] <rawky> sudo gedit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[12:05] <rawky> Include the following line at the bottom of the file, save and quit.
[12:05] <FloodBot4> rawky: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:05] <rawky> Include /etc/phpmyadmin/apache.conf
[12:05] <purple101> erUSUL: So I could alternatively just edit the command line at boot time when Grub shows?
[12:05] <erUSUL> purple101: yes
[12:06] <rawky> (sorry, i copied that from the wiki) Now when  I restart apache it says can't start because the include cannot be found???
[12:06] <purple101> erUSUL: Ok, I'll do that now, and see what error it says. I'll have to quit IRC though in the meantime.
[12:06] <erUSUL> purple101: in grub1 you hit "e" when in the grub menu then edit the kernel line to remove the quiet splash words then press "b" to boot the modified entry iirc
[12:07] <purple101> erUSUL: Thanks.
[12:07] <Shad0VV> hello i use the live ubuntu from a usb stick,and i want to remove module radeon and use fglrx
[12:08] <Shad0VV> i have killed X,but radeon is still in use and i cannot remove it
[12:08] <maedox> rawky, then it probably can't find that file, or the permissions on the directory or file is wrong.
[12:09] <ppq> Shad0VV, did you install fglrx from the ubuntu repo?
[12:09] <Shad0VV> is there anyway to force remove it and use fglrx instead?
[12:09] <Shad0VV> yes ppq
[12:09] <juk> st__:no, h,cpp,ini files
[12:09] <rawky> maedox: I got it! I had typed the apache2 from first line in 2nd (i.e.: I just deleted the '2' and all is well), cheers!
[12:09] <ppq> Shad0VV, you should create a /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:09] <ppq> Shad0VV, there you can define the driver to be used by x
[12:09] <Shad0VV> X -configure
[12:09] <Shad0VV> and then fglrx
[12:09] <Shad0VV> ?
[12:09] <maedox> rawky, good catch :)
[12:10] <ppq> Shad0VV, yes, and copy the file to /etc/X11/xorg.conf of course
[12:10] <Shad0VV> yeah sure ppq
[12:10] <ppq> Shad0VV, Driver      "fglrx" <- like that
[12:10] <st__> juk, interesting... is it real source package or a package for gentoo or something like?
[12:10] <Shad0VV> is it due to kms ppq that i cannot remove it?
[12:11] <juk> st__chrome://downloads/home/juk/Downloads/rr_src.tar.gz
[12:11] <ppq> Shad0VV, i think fglrx simply needs xorg.conf, but i'm not sure
[12:11] <Shad0VV> ok ill try that ppq
[12:11] <juk> st__:sory, here http://www.racer.nl/download/source/rr_src.tar.gz
[12:12] <sKeith> i forget how to search apt-cache. i'm looking for the name of the gui for lv. i tried 'apt-cache | grep lv & gui' but it laughed at me. any help
[12:12] <jrib> sKeith: apt-cache search ...
[12:13] <st__> juk, you have to write makefile by yourself or buy it
[12:13] <Stefanos90> Doyle, hello
[12:13] <ppq> sKeith, 'aptitude search' is a bit more comfortable than 'apt-cache search', btw
[12:13] <juk> st__nope, binary also available
[12:13] <DOA> hello everyone
[12:13] <obengdako> hi DOA
[12:13] <juk> st__:free for linux
[12:14] <g0bl1n> hi, I want to sync my new _empty_ rhythmbox library with my iPod. That is, I want to transfer from the iPod to the rhythmbox library. Does Rhythmbox provide this ? The syncing it is proposing me, it to _erase_ the iPod (probably since the library is empty in the laptop)
[12:14] <Stefanos90> Doyle, do you remember my problem?
[12:14] <st__> juk, it seems authors do not want people to compile it themselves
[12:14] <juk> st__:aha
[12:15] <obengdako> g0bl1n just open rhythm box and when the ipod is detected
[12:15] <obengdako> select all files on the ipod then drag to your library
[12:15] <obengdako> the sync function these days need to be ironed out
[12:16] <CorpusCallosum> hi iam taking Errors were encountered while processing:
[12:16] <CorpusCallosum>  /var/cache/apt/archives/libmysqlclient16_5.1.41-3ubuntu12.6_i386.deb
[12:16] <CorpusCallosum>  /var/cache/apt/archives/scapy2_2.1-bt1_all.deb errors while i am trying to install packages, i tried to fix from synaptic but didnt work, i tried apt-get -f install but didnt work. How can if fix it ?
[12:16] <sKeith> thanks, jrib and ppq. system-config-lvm was the command
[12:16] <FloodBot4> CorpusCallosum: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[12:17] <no--name> Will a larger than needed swap partition degrade performance or will it ONLY waste space?
[12:17] <obengdako> no--name it won't reduce performance though
[12:17] <no--name> ok
[12:17] <g0bl1n> obengdako, ok
[12:18] <obengdako> but well i won't say a waste of space it just would be underutilised
[12:18] <Guest2518> took a read of the first document
[12:18] <CorpusCallosum> Hi guys, how can i fix that error http://paste.ubuntu.com/499087/ , I tried fixing over Synaptic and tried apt-get install -f but didnt work ?
[12:18]  * obengdako has a meeting to attend
[12:18] <Guest2518> the writing there is kinda vague
[12:19] <Guest2518> refers to "from scratch" but actually it is not
[12:19] <Guest2518> trying to get a package done with that is kinda guess-work :D
[12:19] <Stefanos90> hello, who can help me with this problem? I dont't know what to do  BusyBox v1.13.3 (Ubuntu 1:1. 13. 3-1 ubuntu11) built in shell (ash) (initramfs)
[12:20] <obengdako> stefanos90 what exactly is the problem?
[12:21] <thune3> st__: i may be misunderstanding this, but depmod and initramfs-update are only called by package scripts when they are installed "grep initram /var/lib/dpkg/info/*". If paths are touched by an install (listed in /var/lib/dpkg/triggers/File), those triggers are also processed (but none of those should have depmod or initramfs). You sure this happens EVERY upgrade, and not just specific packages?
[12:22] <st__> thune3, i wou;d say unexpected ones
[12:23] <DOA> ´ó¼ÒºÃ
[12:23] <purple101> erUSUL: Ok, by removing 'quiet splash', I see the loading commands & info, and then just get a black screen.

[12:37] <ppq> no--name, equal
[12:37] <Guest2518> okay, let's see
[12:37] <obengdako> gnomefreak how does one kick someone out
[12:37] <jamw> is grub-update likely to fix my problem st__ ?
[12:37] <Guest2518> anybody worked with packageing an SCons build deb so far?
[12:37] <cmpsalvestrini> thank you ops :)
[12:37] <gnomefreak> obengdako: only ops can
[12:37] <st__> jamw, restore boot from win7 dvd then reinstall grub2 from ubuntu cd
[12:38] <st__> Q: is it possible to recover two merged linux systems?
[12:39] <mohan11111> ppq, I am transferring files to my new laptop using this...
[12:39] <lgxwqq> ..
[12:40] <Guest2518> just asking since I use SCons for my project together with custom.py to avoid command line cluttering
[12:40] <mohan11111> ppq, How do i know what are the open ports?
[12:40] <maedox> mohan11111 » ufw status
[12:40] <Guest2518> so an optimal solution would be if before building somehow a custom.py could be written and then scons called
[12:41] <purple101> ppq: Any idea what I should do?
[12:41] <Guest2518> but so far I see only autotools and python mentioned in the documentation
[12:41] <mohan11111> maedox, status = inactive :(
[12:41] <mohan11111> maedox, /but i am transferring files on port 80....
[12:41] <maedox> mohan11111 »   inactive == all open
[12:41] <ppq> mohan11111, you can do a portscan using nmap if you want to know which ports are open on a remote machine. or when you're on the machine, use netstat or so
[12:41] <abcst> :)
[12:42] <ppq> purple101, no, sorry.. you could try deactivating kms with the boot option nomodeset but i doubt this will help
[12:42] <maedox> mohan11111 » oh, right, I remember, you were asking about web servers yesterday. How did that work out? Can you get files from it?
[12:43] <adante> hi
[12:43] <obengdako> hi adante
[12:43] <adante> what software/packages can i use to monitor my 3ware 9650SE hardware raid device?
[12:43] <mohan11111> maedox, Yes, it works. I am transferring files to my laptop ... with a VERY fast speed when compared to my internet speed.
[12:43] <purple101> ppq: So is there any way to recover my operating system? I've got a Live CD too if that helps.
[12:44] <ppq> mohan11111, wait, you want to copy files from one pc to another using symlinks? oO
[12:44] <mohan11111> maedox, i installed apache2 ... now i learnt to make symbolic links.... and transferring.
[12:44] <mohan11111> ppq, from my desktop to laptop.
[12:44] <ppq> purple101, of course you have to create backups of your important data
[12:45] <mohan11111> ppq, has anything wrong with transferring files with symlinks?
[12:45] <ppq> purple101, this is easy when you have a live-cd and an external hdd or so. you should use 'tar'
[12:45] <Guest2518> hm... am I maybe in the wrong channel? some more tech-savvy channel around?
[12:45] <vaibhav1> Help me, My top menu bar disappears... how I can restore it??
[12:45] <ppq> mohan11111, symlinks are just symlinks, nothing is copied when you make a symlink
[12:45] <mbroeker> stuxnet...
[12:46] <obengdako> vabhav1 press Alt + F2
[12:46] <vaibhav1> am using ubuntu 10.04
[12:46] <obengdako> then type gnome-panel
[12:46] <obengdako> press enter
[12:46] <ppq> purple101, and please try the nomodeset thing before giving up. but, as i said, this maybe will be senseless
[12:46] <ubuntuuser> when i log onto my xubuntu pc im faced with a log in screen (one that i turned off)
[12:46] <lebear> hi.. got thrown into BusyBox after a crash, is this usually due to hardware issues?
[12:47] <mohan11111> ppq, I don't understand.. I am now transferring movies over that.
[12:47] <vaibhav1> obengdako: not working...
[12:47] <ubuntuuser> when i enter my password the screen flicks like its going to log in but returns me to the log in screen
[12:47] <ubuntuuser> =/
[12:47] <ppq> mohan11111, maybe i misunderstood you. what exactly are you doing?
[12:47] <obengdako> does Alt + F2 work?
[12:47] <purple101> ppq: So I just add nomodeset to the command line parameters? In the same place where quiet splash went?
[12:47] <mohan11111> maedox, Everyone on the internet can access my files if they know my ip.... so is there a way to restrict connections only to my laptop ?
[12:47] <ppq> purple101, yep
[12:47] <vaibhav1> obengdako: yes
[12:48] <obengdako>  so type gnome-panel in it and press enter viabhav1
[12:48] <ppq> mohan11111, do you have a samba share where you put symlinks to your movie folder?
[12:48] <mohan11111> ppq, copying files from my desktop to my laptop using apache2,.. by creating symobilic links to my disk drives.
[12:48] <mohan11111> ppq, I don't think i have.
[12:48] <ppq> mohan11111, ok, then you're copying via http, nevermind
[12:48] <vaibhav1> obengdako: done as you said, but top bar dosent come back..
[12:48] <ubuntuuser> can anyone help?
[12:48] <mohan11111> ppq, is that wrong?
[12:49] <st__> on very very virst boot moments I'm getting stuff like [udev] group 'video' is not known" and so for tape etc what's this?
[12:49] <mbroeker> mohan11111, create a .htaccess file
[12:49] <obengdako> what ubuntu 10.04 do you use
[12:49] <odme> i like ubuntu ^^
[12:49] <gnomefreak> obengdako: ask in #ubuntu-irc, #ubuntu is not the place for you question about ops
[12:49] <mohan11111> ppq, files should not be copied like this?? Then how to access the files using ftp?
[12:49] <ppq> mohan11111, no, it's just a bit complicated :D
[12:49] <vaibhav1> obengdako: Ubuntu 10.04 desktop edition, i386
[12:49] <obengdako> is your desktop icons available
[12:49] <winterelf> hi there, anybody had any idea about how to know the screen geometry by just moving the mouse to a place on the screen? i mean, i need the X and Y location of a mouse... (is that a wierd function to ask?)
[12:49] <purple101> ppq: nomodeset seems to have worked! What do I need to do now I'm inside to fix it? Is there some sort of general repair utility?
[12:49] <ppq> mohan11111, the easiest is copying the files via samba
[12:49] <mohan11111> mbroeker, what to write inside that file?
[12:50] <maedox> mohan11111: is it really? you don't use NAT on your router?   in any case do this   ufw allow from 192.168.0.0/16; ufw enable
[12:50] <ppq> purple101, does your system boot up completely?
[12:50] <ubuntuuser> could someone help me with a problem im having
[12:50] <Nobody_> How can i install Font in ubuntu ?
[12:50] <purple101> purple101: Yep, seeminly as normal.
[12:50] <maedox> mohan11111: change 192.168.0.0/16 to your network subnet if it's different
[12:50] <st__> Nobody_, drop it in /usr/share/fonts/TrueType
[12:50] <ppq> purple101, then simply put the nomodeset option in your /etc/default/grub, run sudo update-grub and be happy :-)
[12:51] <ubuntuuser> when i log onto my xubuntu pc im faced with a log in screen (one that i turned off)
[12:51] <purple101> ppq: But presumably there was a problem that caused it? I mean, it's worked fine for the last 6 months without it...
[12:51] <ubuntuuser> when i enter my password the screen flicks like its going to log in but returns me to the log in screen
[12:51] <obengdako> vaibhav1 try Ctrl-Alt-T
[12:51] <mohan11111> ppq, is it easier than this?
[12:52] <st__> ubuntuuser, out of disk space?
[12:52] <obengdako> then type gnome-panel in the terminal and see what it writes out
[12:52] <ppq> mohan11111, MUCH easier :D
[12:52] <ubuntuuser> not that i know of
[12:52] <erry> Can't empaty send nudges?
[12:52] <mohan11111> mbroeker, what to write inside .htaccess file? have any help webpage?
[12:52] <Marqeaux> @Nobody: you can drop your fonts at /home/yourusername/.fonts (the folder ".fonts" you have to make yourself, including the "." before "fonts". It's an invisible folder....
[12:52] <mbroeker> mohan11111, http://codepad.org/eF3BSYgn
[12:52] <st__> mohan11111, apache.org
[12:52] <ppq> mohan11111, with samba, you can share a directory easily. but wait, your pc is connected directly to the internet? then you have to be careful..
[12:53] <winterelf> nobody heard about an application like that?
[12:53] <vaibhav1> obengdako: alt+ctrl+t dose not work, when I type gmone-panel from terminal it gives Cannot register the panel shell: there is already one running.
[12:53] <mbroeker> mohan11111, hmm. wait. just put this into /etc/apache2/conf.d/music.conf
[12:53] <ppq> purple101, there may have been an update for your graphic card's driver which wasn't good
[12:53] <mbroeker> mohan11111, restart apache2 and access to /music will be restricted to the networks in that file
[12:53] <obengdako> vaibhav1 or better still Ctrl+Alt+F1 then sudo gnom.............
[12:54] <mbroeker> mohan11111, to movies, damn, my coffee is bad today ...
[12:54] <obengdako> vaibhav1 is your lower panel active?
[12:54] <purple101> ppq: So is leaving nomodeset there safe?
[12:54] <ppq> purple101, what's your graphics card? and which driver do you use?
[12:54] <purple101> ppq: How can I find out?
[12:54] <thune3> winterelf: all i know is determining mouse id with "xinput -list" and then running "xinput -test #" where number is the mouse ID acquired from the previous command
[12:54] <Nobody_> st__, thank
[12:54] <ppq> purple101, it is. it's not the most beautiful solution; it's not even a solution, it's a workaround
[12:54] <purple101> ppq: I think it's some sort of nVidia one.
[12:55] <ppq> purple101, type 'lspci'
[12:55] <obengdako> vaibhav if your're are not doing something critical i suggest you restart if the problem persists let me know
[12:55] <purple101> ppq: Yeah, ideally I'd like to try and fix it to avoid a permanent workaround.
[12:55] <vaibhav1> obengdako: yes lower panel is working
[12:56] <obengdako> then right click on that and do Add panel
[12:56] <obengdako> then add too the new panel your main menu and the others you like
[12:56] <purple101> ppq: What entry am I looking for? VGA compatable controller?
[12:56] <ppq> purple101, yep
[12:56] <obengdako> vaibhav1 i suspect you've deleted your top panel
[12:56] <mohan1111> ppq, maedox sorry, i got disconnected.
[12:56] <erry> tw
[12:57] <erry> btw(
[12:57] <erry> Rhythmbox keeps crashing

[12:57] <mbroeker> mohan11111, save that file as /etc/apache2/conf.d/music.conf and sudo service apache2 restart: all access to http://yourserver.com/music/ will be restricted to your local network
[12:57] <spid3rxx> hai i need exploit for this
[12:57] <bazhang> spid3rxx, wrong network
[12:57] <mohan1111> I don't find today's irc log for #ubuntu... Any help ?
[12:57] <obengdako> erry how does it crash
[12:57] <spid3rxx> please   /_vti_bin/shtml.exe
[12:57] <purple101> ppq: It says ATI Technologies Inc M92 [Mobility Radeon HD 4500 Series]
[12:57] <vaibhav1> obengdako: yes I have restarted couple of times, I update the sytem then it said restart required, then it was showing two audio icons so I Rclick on one of those and said remove from panel and whole bar is gone...
[12:57] <spid3rxx> why
[12:57] <mbroeker> damn, i give up. music != movies. sorry. little break,
[12:57] <bazhang> !1984 > mohan1111
[12:57] <ppq> purple101, alright, that's not a nvidia one :D
[12:58] <spid3rxx> teel ;w
[12:58] <bazhang> spid3rxx, offtopic. dont ask
[12:58] <erry> obengdako, im listening to a song then it will often stop playing and disappear from the panel when moving to the next song.
[12:58] <spid3rxx> why
[12:58] <erry> obengdako, and i have to start it again
[12:58] <obengdako> erry mine crashes when i try to increase system volume
[12:58] <bazhang> spid3rxx, please stop
[12:58] <purple101> ppq: Yeah, I noticed. So what does this tell me?
[12:58] <erry> obengdako, no, mine doesn't do that.
[12:58] <erry> obengdako, just when changing songs/
[12:58] <mohan1111> bazhang, this page has no today's date : http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2010/09/
[12:59] <ppq> purple101, i guess you're using the radeonhd driver? did you install fglrx?
[12:59] <obengdako> vaibhav1 so then riht click on your lower panel and add new panel are you okay with that
[12:59] <obengdako> ?
[12:59] <bazhang> mohan1111, from what time period, or just today altogether
[12:59] <morbidwar> hello, is there any way to send an email when a user login thru ssh?
[12:59] <lidbjork> Hello all! I've logged in to my server computer from my ubuntu box using ssh -X. But when I start an X program (and I expect it to open in a window in ubuntu) it complains that it can't find "the D-bus session server". What do I do?
[12:59] <obengdako> erry well mine sometimes crashes when reading or changing songs especially from a ntfs drive
[12:59] <erry> this is from a linux drive though
[13:00] <erry> ext4
[13:00] <obengdako> erry well rhythm box shouldn't
[13:00] <obengdako> crash
[13:00] <erry> well it does :p
[13:00] <ppq> purple101, the free radeonhd driver provided with ubuntu sometimes has problems with KMS (kernel mode setting). the solution is to use fglrx instead, it is the driver provided by AMD. it works pretty good for me
[13:00] <obengdako> do you have cross fading and all that enabled?
[13:00] <purple101> ppq: Aha, so I've noticed a package problem error saying 'the package "fglrx" failed to upgrade'.
[13:00] <vaibhav1> obengdako: I dont have option called add a new panel...
[13:00] <bazhang> http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2010/09/23/ mohan1111
[13:01] <ppq> purple101, ok, that will be the source of the problem..
[13:01] <mohan1111> bazhang, sorry . .
[13:01] <mohan1111> bazhang, thanks
[13:01] <bazhang> mohan1111, welcome
[13:01] <ppq> purple101, please nopaste the output of 'sudo apt-get install fglrx'
[13:01] <ppq> purple101, to pastebin.com or something
[13:02] <mohan1111> But i still don't find the conversations few minutes ago in ubuntu.txt  bazhang
[13:02] <bazhang> mohan1111, it takes a bit of time to update
[13:02] <mohan1111> bazhang, ok.
[13:02] <mohan1111> ppq, Hi.. Are you still there ?
[13:02] <no--name> is everything in ~ safe for deleting? if not, what isn't safe to delete?
[13:02] <purple101> ppq: Just connecting the laptop to the internet... I'll reconnect to freenode from there.
[13:03] <ppq> mohan1111, i think so
[13:03] <obengdako> vaibhav1 this is getting tricky now
[13:04] <obengdako> when you right click do you see move?
[13:04] <vaibhav1> yes
[13:05] <st__> no--name, all stuff starting with . is
[13:05] <wieshka> hey - how can i hide/disabe GRUB menu
[13:05]  * erry segfaults
[13:06] <ppq> no--name, you can delete everything except .bashrc and .profile but you have to expect that your applications (or even the whole graphical desktop) may not work anymore
[13:06] <vaibhav1> obengdako: Yehhhh..... Gotcha.... New panel makes new panel on top, and I can add all menus I had lost.... Thanks a Lot :)
[13:06] <obengdako> then move it to a corner then click on the panel again and
[13:06] <ppq> no--name, what's the reason you want to delete everything?
[13:07] <obengdako> vaibhav1 glad i could help
[13:07] <Guest2518> okay, through with the documents
[13:07] <purple102> ppq: Output of sudo apt-get install fglrx - http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/W6zczfJi
[13:07] <Guest2518> stored them in the bookmarks
[13:07] <Pici> ppq: Everything should still work, but all of no--name's settings will be gone, and documents and whatnot.
[13:07] <Guest2518> right now they are not useful as SCons is not supported and such
[13:07] <Guest2518> looks like ubuntu is right now off limits until this can be handled
[13:07] <ppq> Pici, 'should', yes.. i once tried it and gnome didn't start anymore
[13:07] <Guest2518> maybe somebody else will do this once but for the time being it won't happen
[13:08] <Guest2518> thanks for the links anyways
[13:08] <obengdako> vaibhav1 all cool?
[13:08]  * obengdako has a meeting to attend
[13:09] <ppq> purple102, please make sure the package 'patch' is installed
[13:09] <vaibhav1> obengdako: yes... H have added some new stuff on it... awesome! thanks a ton!
[13:09] <obengdako> great
[13:10] <wieshka> folks ..... after updating my plymouth theme, i have GRUB menu showed up during bootup (version 1.98), and it still shos up during every boot up. How can i again hide it ?
[13:10] <astrid> hai
[13:10] <wieshka> weird - my /boot/grub/menu.lst is empty
[13:10] <ppq> purple102, the package 'build-essential' should be installed as well
[13:10] <bazhang> wieshka, there is not one in grub2
[13:10] <maedox> !grub2 | wieshka
[13:10] <bazhang> wieshka, check the grub2 wiki ^^
[13:11] <ppq> wieshka, you may be using grub2 which is configured in /etc/default/grub
[13:11] <wieshka> ppq:  thx for path :)
[13:11] <ppq> wieshka, (actually in /boot/grub/grub.cfg but you shouldn't edit this file)
[13:12] <wieshka> ppq:  so just editing /etc/default/grub and update grub ? :)

[13:12] <ppq> wieshka, yep
[13:14] <m4rc3l0> hello
[13:14]  * obengdako says hi to m4rc310
[13:14] <m4rc3l0> hi
[13:14] <m4rc3l0> could you help me
[13:15] <obengdako> well it depends
[13:15] <ppq> m4rc3l0, just ask
[13:15] <m4rc3l0> to change login background in 10.04w
[13:15] <ppq> then we'll see if someone can help you.
[13:15] <m4rc3l0> ?
[13:15] <m4rc3l0> thanks!
[13:16] <mmm4m5m> Hi all. I have separate /var partition. Is it normal "/var/lock" and "/var/run" to be listed twice in "cat /proc/mounts" ?
[13:16] <dubey> hello
[13:16] <ResQue> how can i install gtkmm on ubuntu?
[13:16] <AbhiJit> m4rc3l0, either make use of ubuntu tweak or there is a package on launchpad gnome2login or something like that
[13:16] <ResQue> i found the documention package but not the lib it self. is it called something different?
[13:17] <m4rc3l0> ok
[13:17] <murrayc> ResQue: See here: http://www.gtkmm.org/en/download.html
[13:17] <ppq> m4rc3l0, run 'gksudo -u gdm dbus-launch gnome-appearance-properties' then you can select your wallpaper and other things for the login screen
[13:17] <murrayc> ResQue: It's the libgtkmm-2.4-dev package, if you want to write C++ code that uses gtkmm.
[13:17] <m4rc3l0> thank you very much!
[13:17] <ResQue> murrayc, i was hoping i could install it through apt-get, is it not in the default repos?
[13:17] <dubey> i am using ubuntu 10.4 and wanted to use Empathy IM, How can i add my yahoo id in empany, I havn't find yahoo option in their list
[13:18] <murrayc> ResQue: It is. You can.
[13:18] <obengdako> AbhiJit i don't have ubuntu tweak in my repositories
[13:18] <obengdako> don't tell me to google
[13:18] <ResQue> murrayc, i am trying to compile the new version of gparted and it says i need it. but i cant find it through apt-get. do you know what it is called?
[13:18] <murrayc> ResQue: It's the libgtkmm-2.4-dev package, if you want to write C++ code that uses gtkmm.
[13:19] <ppq> ResQue, try 'sudo apt-get build-dep gparted' to install the build depencies necessary to build gparted
[13:19] <AbhiJit> obengdako, its not in repo. its not offical supported aps. you need to take it from their website
[13:19] <SupermanIsDeady> @dubey : you can read this http://saravananthirumuruganathan.wordpress.com/2010/04/04/empathy-chat-messenger-tutorial/
[13:20] <obengdako> do you have a url?
[13:20] <AbhiJit> :/
[13:20] <obengdako> :-S
[13:20] <st__> can I make ubuntu boot into vga mode?
[13:21] <m4rc3l0> thank you guys!
[13:21] <Votan> Hi guys, does VMWare in Linux use the hardware directly, as in, you can play highend games using directX etc ?
[13:21] <ppq> Votan, no
[13:21] <desnaike> obengdako: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-ubuntu-tweak-in-ubuntu-10-04lucid-lynx.html
[13:21] <ResQue> ppq, thanks, i will try that. i download the gparted source from gparted website, becuase i am trying to format a disk to hfs+. i was told that is the best way to get support. as its grayed out in the default version of gaprted on 10.4, i have tryed installing hfsplus and hfsutils
[13:21] <Roasted> having a big problem with a brand new ubuntu install. something about brkoen packages etc, run apt-get install -f, so I did, but it comes back failed with this error -  syntax error: unknown user 'mediatomb' in statoverride file
[13:21] <Roasted> any idea?
[13:21] <Votan> ppq alright, so basically it's still like it has been forever, if the game doesnt run in wine, u r screwed ?
[13:22] <AbhiJit> obengdako, http://tinyurl.com/2w3asjo
[13:22] <ResQue> murrayc, thanks a lot mate, i found it. any advice you can give me for finding package names. i always seem to have this problem with packages being named something else. in this case it was just lib but there are some strange names out there
[13:22] <obengdako> desnaike thank
[13:22] <st__> Votan, why would you run Windows games on Linux?
[13:22] <murrayc> ResQue: Search in synaptic.
[13:22] <obengdako> abhijit thanks
[13:22] <ppq> ResQue, you could also install 'hfsplus' and try it again
[13:22] <ppq> Votan, yes :)
[13:22] <murrayc> ResQue: Or just use the build-dep trick that ppq mentioned.
[13:23] <ResQue> ppq, yes i tryed install all packages that start with hfs. hfs is no ungrayed but not hfs+
[13:23] <Votan> st__ becuz I am a very lazy person and cant be arsed rebooting/dual-boot windows ....
[13:23] <ppq> Votan, but the wine appdb is very large, try to find a guide for your game there
[13:23] <dubey> SupermanIsDeady: it doesn't cover how to add protocol for yahoo, Because i am able to see google talk, MSN etc but not yahoo
[13:23] <st__> ppq, appdb is mostly useless, for example it states wow runs on wine whether it does not
[13:24] <ppq> st__, well, when you're using the newest wine1.2 from the wine ppa, it should
[13:24] <Votan> ppq I agree with st__ on appdb, that's why I way looking to run window sinside linux, but as stated I'd need a virtualization software that has direct access tot he hardware
[13:25] <ppq> Votan, unfortunately you won't find something like that
[13:25] <Votan> ppq I see, is there a specific reason why ?
[13:25] <st__> Votan, 3d acceleration is not a priotity for business and network companies for whom virtualization is developed
[13:26] <thune3> sKeith: does "sudo df" give you same output?
[13:26] <ResQue> i got gparted compiling now thanks guys
[13:26] <skumara> hi , my workplace network blocking my pc from connecting to keyserver.ubuntu.com. can any one help me to get public key for this 2 things from keyserver 6E871C4A881574DE and 2836CB0A8AC93F7A. Thank you? anyone?
[13:26] <ppq> Votan, "passing through" the graphic card is not possible.. but don't ask me why :) for the cpu it's possible, this is what virtualbox does
[13:26] <ResQue> just hope this version supports hfs plus, i got all the dependences now
[13:26] <Votan> ppq that's what I am asking, :>
[13:26] <ppq> :p
[13:27] <Votan> st__ do you know why it is not possible to pass the gpu thru to the guest system so it can directly access it ?
[13:27]  * obengdako ubuntu tweak here http://launchpad.net/ubuntu-tweak/0.5.x/0.5.6/+download/ubuntu-tweak_0.5.6-1_all.deb
[13:28] <ppq> Votan, btw, for virtualbox there's rudimentary 3d support using something like a directx-clone done by the wine devs
[13:28] <ResQue> anyone here done any serious tweeking to wine. i hear good things that it will run a lot of games these days, and you can even install directx9 if you set it up right. anyone tryed?
[13:28] <ppq> Votan, but that's nothing for games
[13:28] <sKeith> Why would aptitude report that its keeping back lots of stuff? ( http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/WMh1wVtt )
[13:28] <Votan> ppq I see, looks like i still need to rebot everytime i wanna play something *yawn*
[13:28] <mmm4m5m> Votan: virtualbox expose some of host graphic card functions to guest os (help say it could be risky)
[13:29]  * mmm4m5m Votan: ppq already told, sorry
[13:29] <Pici> sKeith: Probably because you didn't tell it to do a full-upgrade or dist-upgrade
[13:29] <Votan> mmm4m5m some isnt enough if it does not include the extended 3d capabilities :>
[13:29] <oracle> why the hell is this network-manager STILL running! i frakken deleted every mention to it in /etc/init.d/
[13:29] <ppq> sKeith, did you add any foreign repository to your sources.list?
[13:29] <aeon-ltd> oracle: even the one called nm-applet?
[13:29] <maedox> oracle: System -> Preferences -> Startup ?
[13:30] <ptDDev> hello
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> oracle: did you kill the process?
[13:30] <sKeith> i think i added universal, i'll check
[13:30] <ptDDev> where can i find assistance for empathy?
[13:30] <Pici> sKeith: What command did you issue to get that?
[13:30] <ppq> sKeith, it seems that you added a repo for a newer ubuntu version then you're actually using.
[13:30] <oracle> aeon-ltd, is that in the intid TOO
[13:30] <oracle> seconjd
[13:30] <ppq> sKeith, or you didn't update your system for a _very_ long time :D
[13:31] <skumara> hi, people.
[13:31] <oracle> YES THAT DID IT
[13:31] <aeon-ltd> oracle: could be, sorry i don't use ubuntu so i can't check
[13:31] <oracle> you dont use ubuntu but you sure know your way around the gnome crap
[13:31] <sKeith> i'm on the long term supported version
[13:31] <aeon-ltd> oracle: it worked?
[13:31] <oracle> yes
[13:31] <redPanda> oracle: Gnome is a desktop environement. You don't have to use Ubuntu to use it. :)
[13:31] <oracle> thanks <,9
[13:32] <Pici> sKeith: What argument to aptitude did you use?
[13:32] <oracle> redpanda, i know that!
[13:32] <oracle> also, it is a very bloated DE
[13:32] <sKeith> aptitude install mc (installing mc the shell commander)
[13:32] <st__> oracle, there are no viable alternatives for gnome
[13:32] <ppq> sKeith, when you don't have any suspicious repos there, you can run 'aptitude dist-upgrade' do install the new stuff. but ou have to be sure to avoid destroying your system
[13:32] <oracle> is there a way to remove nm-applet, from the startup lists?
[13:33] <Pici> sKeith: You probably should issue an aptitude full-upgrade, as you have a lot of packages that require updates.
[13:33] <sipior> st__: ?
[13:33] <AbhiJit> is there any program which will 'listen' from you tube video and convert it to text? for english?
[13:33] <sipior> st__: that's not right. it's not even wrong.
[13:33] <oracle> st__, its right
[13:33] <oracle> gnome could be lighter
[13:33] <st__> sipior, unless you want to propose some geek crap like screen or twm
[13:33] <ppq> AbhiJit, google for 'speech to text' applications, then download the youtube video
[13:34] <AbhiJit> ppq, ok
[13:34] <Aqaz> Please suggest me documentation for linux terminal commands
[13:34] <ppq> for ubuntu of course ;p
[13:34] <it2ceda> Trying to use gparted to create a 101.98 MiB partition but I can only adjust to integer.
[13:34] <sKeith> pici. i will, but i'll make a full backup first.
[13:34] <bazhang> !bash > Aqaz
[13:34] <it2ceda> What can I do to create decimals
[13:35] <sKeith> full-upgrade wont upgrade to new release?
[13:35] <crankygeek> I have registered my NICK in the past, and now it tells me it's not registered, do I need to register again? if so , how do I do it? (been a while)
[13:35] <sipior> st__: well, there are some folks who swear by kde, xfce, &cet. you might try looking around, once in a while.
[13:35] <ppq> sKeith, no
[13:35] <sKeith> okay.
[13:35] <AbhiJit> crankygeek, its not registered regiser again
[13:35] <AbhiJit> !register | crankygeek
[13:36] <maedox> it2ceda: that's awkwardly specific. Why would you want that?
[13:36] <Aqaz> bazhang: Those are basic. I need all commands
[13:36] <it2ceda> Special reason. I shall create 4 partions to my HDPVR and one shall have 101.98 MiB
[13:37] <maedox> it2ceda: you might have to use fdisk then.
[13:38] <AbhiJit> ppq, no luck
[13:38] <xeross> Hey, for some reason some of the icons in my "tray" area are non-transparent while they should be, how can I fix this ?
[13:38] <it2ceda> hmm fdisk to creat ext3 partitions?
[13:38] <Aqaz> Please suggest me documentation for  all  linux terminal commands....
[13:38] <redPanda> oracle: "which nm-applet" then meh, append .bak to the file itself might do the trick.
[13:39] <st__> Aqaz, 'help' if you mean bash builtins
[13:39] <Aqaz> st_: No not that
[13:39] <oracle> redpanda, yeha that is a dirrty hack, or something
[13:39] <redPanda> oracle: Yes.
[13:39] <oracle> but what on gods earth is starting that crap
[13:40] <st__> oracle, less swearing please?
[13:40] <oracle> st__, ill try hard
[13:40] <thune3> Aqaz: can you narrow it down a bit, i mean there are 10s of thousands of packages that have terminal interfaces.
[13:40] <tomh> hey, how do i install ELF?
[13:41] <st__> if you mean stuff like 'ls', 'find' or 'ifconfig' they are not linux commands too
[13:41] <Aqaz> thune3: I want to know system commands specifically
[13:41] <st__> tomh, make it +x and type ./<elf-name>
[13:41] <fffuuuu> I've had the dreaded system freeze randomly happen to me, so i figured i'd install again and see whats what, but it froze yet again.  but since unticking enable wireless in the connection tab it hasn't frozen once yet.  just wondering how i would go about getting newer drivers for the wireless
[13:41] <AbhiJit> ppq, what i found is only for real voice. i mean they are not for directly listening voice to youtube videos
[13:41] <tomh> mm
[13:42] <pwuertz> When building a debian package, how can I skip the part where debian/rules calls dh_shlibdeps/dpkg-shlibdeps? It somehow reports an error for a custom library I can't/don't want to solve right now. I would like to build my deb anyways, how to do that?
[13:42] <tomh> i probably should ask the people who wrote the software I install how to use it
[13:42] <EugenA> i'm running ubuntu recovery system on a dedicated server, how can i install testdisk on it?
[13:43] <st__> my system kicked a bucket :(
[13:43] <katjah> #poslix
[13:43] <katjah> sorry
[13:44] <oracle> iwconfig has really been broken by nm-applet
[13:44] <oracle> cant create adhoc networks anymore.. try specifying essid and it magically selects nonexistant netowkrs
[13:45] <oracle> this is an lts problem. i've seen the exact same issue on three machines
[13:45] <oracle> 10.04, of course
[13:46] <marsfligth> please, what program to resize a movie avi file. Now it is 100 MB, i need to reduce the fames size etc
[13:47] <tarzeau> marsfligth: avidemux, lives, mencoder...
[13:47] <Aqaz_> :)
[13:48] <st__> does linux mount SWAP partitions automatical;llty?
[13:48] <it2ceda> Trying to use Gparted to create a 101.98 MiB partition but I can only adjust to integer. Is it really possible to use decimals when adjust the MiB's?
[13:49] <Emry> st__, It only mounts swap partitions if you tell it to.
[13:49] <Emry> st__, When you install Linux, most distros will have you create a swap partition, and they will add that to the fstab that the install program creates.
[13:50] <vnc> st_: it is often to set to auto mount swap when installed unless you partitioned the drive manually and did not allocate a swap partition, i belive swapon will activate the swap partition
[13:50] <magnetron> st__: linux will mount all Swap partitions in /etc/fstab automatically
[13:50] <Emry> st__, There are mkswap and swapon to turn things on :)
[13:51] <ikar> hi, does it exist a video-editing-program that can edit mp4 video for Ubuntu?
[13:52] <it2ceda> so is there any other partition software to create 101.98 MiB into ext3 format
[13:53] <st__> there's no such thing as 0,98 MiB
[13:54] <xeross> How can I make aptitude ignore certain packages when updating ?
[13:54] <undecim> Well, that is very interesting... Everything but my touchpad just fixed itself...
[13:54] <it2ceda> ok  well I have to check my HDPVR HD once more to see which settings I have to use
[13:54] <guest_> xeross apt pinning
[13:54] <xbonesx> !gnome
[13:55] <xbonesx> !gnome-desktop
[13:55] <bazhang> xbonesx, /msg ubottu please
[13:55] <bazhang> !pinning > xeross
[13:55] <xbonesx> bazhang: ok no problem just type "!<example>" while in a PM???
[13:56] <bazhang> xbonesx, yep
[13:56] <undecim> Alright, I have a /boot partition that is intentionally not mounted during boot (ironic, huh?). If I try to do a kernel upgrade, will I get an error about /boot not being mounted or will aptitude even check that? Is there somewhere I can add a script to mount and/or prompt me to mount /boot before upgrading the kernel or grub?
[13:56] <xbonesx> bazhang: ok
[13:56] <ikar> is there a video-editing aplication who can edit mp4 files on Ubuntu?
[13:56] <bazhang> xbonesx, also info package , or find package ; very handy to keep a PM open with the bot
[13:56] <AbhiJit> ikar, try kdenlive or lives
[13:56] <aeon-ltd> !avidemux
[13:56] <undecim> ikar: have you tried kdenlive and avidemux?
[13:57] <undecim> oops, looks like others beat me to it.
[13:57] <kokozedman> hey guys
[13:57] <ikar> AbhiJit & undecim , i never heard of it
[13:57] <kokozedman> in KVM... there is an interface virbr0... how can i remove it?
[13:57] <kokozedman> i have tested a guest and it got created with it... but now, i'd like to remove it
[13:57] <kokozedman> and i've rebooted, and i still see it
[13:57] <aeon-ltd> ikar: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avidemux#Supported_formats
[13:58] <guest_> kokozedman ifconfig <iface> down
[13:58] <xbonesx> bazhang: info package????
[13:58] <ikar> aeon-ltd, ok, i'll check it out , tnx for the tips
[13:58] <Nobody_> anybody here know anysite or any irc channel have C++ programming exercises ?
[13:58] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, !info gtk+ in pm
[13:58] <Pici> !usage > xbonesx
[13:58] <kokozedman> guest_: yes, that is the easiest... but i'm not sure if it will be remove completely
[13:58] <bazhang> xbonesx, /msg ubottu info packagenamehere
[13:59] <xbonesx> bazhang: oh kool thanks
[13:59] <bazhang> xbonesx, welcome
[13:59] <fffuuuu> is there an updated driver for atheros ar5007g which is installed by default for my wireless card?
[13:59] <aeon-ltd> Nobody_: not sure about excercises but you could ask in #c or #objc
[13:59] <Aqaz_> thune3: There?
[13:59] <guest_> kokozedman permanant solutions exist in /etc/network/*
[13:59] <Pici> Nobody_: ##C++ would be the best place to start
[13:59] <ikar> i think that aplication suites me fine, thanks for ya answers :)
[14:00] <kokozedman> guest_: the interface is not defined in there... i think it has something to do with KVM/QEMU
[14:00] <Spyzer> hi all, if i have a string. and i only want the character which occur after the first occurrence of '=' how to do that??
[14:00] <Spyzer>  e.g. NoDisplay=true after operation should display true
[14:00] <guest_> kokozedman not defined no. but you can blacklist it there
[14:00] <Spyzer>  so what shall be the operatio
[14:00] <Spyzer> n??
[14:00] <kokozedman> guest_: and that would be a dirty solution... clean solution is preferable
[14:01] <sipior> Spyzer: i assume you mean in a shell script?
[14:01] <thune3> Aqaz_: i've been looking around, i don't see anything with the 'depth' you are looking for. There are command reference cheat sheets, but each is specific to an area.
[14:01] <Spyzer> yes
[14:01] <Spyzer> sipior: yes
[14:01] <guest_> kokozedman ok.    "imo that's cleaner than hacking network-manager,,, but that's just me."
[14:02] <kokozedman> guest_: network-manager is not part of a default Ubuntu Server
[14:02] <kokozedman> i'm using the server
[14:03] <laurynas> #ubuntu-lt-team
[14:03] <sipior> Spyzer: try using awk, with the field separator set to "=". so, "awk -F= '{print $2}'", or the like
[14:03] <ppq> AbhiJit, sorry, i was afk, lunch. you can convert the video to mp3 using filsh.net and continue with that file

[14:04] <AbhiJit> ppq, ok

[14:04] <mysticdream06150> may I ask ou a question but I'm french so it's difficult for me to explain
[14:04] <thune3> Aqaz_: this is a pretty good list: http://www.oreillynet.com/linux/cmd/
[14:05] <lultz> why i don't have POSTMAP? how can i install this.. my postfix are running ok, but i need use postmap..

[14:06] <[IRAQI]> how can make connection network between PC and Laptop / in Laptop is Ubuntu 10 and in PC windows xp?
[14:06] <ppq> [IRAQI], do you want to copy files? then: create a samba share
[14:06] <st__> [IRAQI], i doubt ubuntu support it
[14:06] <[IRAQI]> yes share files
[14:06] <erUSUL> [IRAQI]: share the internet connection? or sharing files?
[14:07] <[IRAQI]> file
[14:07] <erUSUL> !samba | [IRAQI]
[14:07] <[IRAQI]> file and print like in windows
[14:07] <[IRAQI]> which one?
[14:07] <erUSUL> [IRAQI]: if you windows machine shares some folder you should be able to see it in Places>Network>windows Network
[14:08] <ppq> [IRAQI], for sharing a printer connected to the ubuntu pc, CUPS is better. but for sharing files with the windows pc you can use samba
[14:08] <erUSUL> [IRAQI]: also you can right click on a folder in ubuntu. choose the sharing options and share it with windows
[14:08] <[IRAQI]> no ..make it i mean like in windows can make folder then share in side files also can print it

[14:12] <tomh> what is the name of the zlib package?

[14:13] <ppq> tomh, hint: to check what's the name of a package, type 'aptitude show libz' in terminal and then press tab. it will show you possible endings for your term
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> doktoreas: check the alsamixer as ppq suggests, otherwise you may need the option to make things nice
[14:13] <tomh> ok

[14:24] <RingZer0> i have to press F11 to drag it over to the other monitor, but then cannot get it back to the almost-full-screen that it was when it launched.
[14:24] <RingZer0> same with terminal
[14:24] <edbian> RingZer0, press f11 on the second monitor

[14:27] <boywonder> hi im trying to install  virtualbox and i hace an option to install but its saying that it requires 6 packages and i dont know if they come with the vbox package,can anyone help?
[14:27] <aeon-ltd> boywonder: those are called dependencies, its perfectly normal
[14:28] <aeon-ltd> !dependencies
[14:28] <aeon-ltd> !dependencies
[14:28] <aeon-ltd> !dependancies
[14:28] <aeon-ltd> damn
[14:28] <Pici> aeon-ltd: ...
[14:28] <ppq> lol
[14:28] <aeon-ltd> spelling help please?
[14:28] <boywonder> aeon-ltd, so do they come with the package?
[14:28] <ppq> depencies?
[14:28] <aeon-ltd> boywonder: yeah, should do
[14:28] <boywonder> aeon-ltd,  thanks mate
[14:29] <boywonder> bbl
[14:29] <astrocub> anyone? :(
[14:29] <Pici> boywonder: They are other packages that the vbox package needs to work.
[14:29] <RingZer0> edbian: that fullscreens the entire thing, autohiding my browser  buttons, location, etc.
[14:29] <RingZer0> basically I want to just hide the titlebar
[14:29] <RingZer0> is there some way in gnome/ubunto to just hide the title bar of a window.
[14:30] <sid> hi
[14:30] <BluesKaj> 'morning
[14:31] <edbian> RingZer0, You could turn off the window decorations entirely.  But then you'll find it annoying to move / maximize / restore / close windows.
[14:31] <Guest28115> hi
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> RingZer0: in LXDE you can remove the decorator using the right click menu, not sure in gnome. if you want your browser controls to stay then you may be able to right click them and tell them to not hide
[14:31] <sid> i want to connect to mysql database in gtk/c hoe can i ??
[14:31] <AbhiJit> \o/
[14:33] <erUSUL> sid: http://www.gnome-db.org/ ?
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> could also use liquifox theme, its super compact
[14:34] <ActionParsnip> as well as tiny menu to get all the file, edit junk into ine button. You can then rearrange stuff to achieve this: http://s270.photobucket.com/albums/jj93/andrew_woodhead666/?action=view&current=thin.jpg
[14:36] <ActionParsnip> thats back when I used firefox, the default layout of chromium by default is compact and the browser by default is waaay faster too imho
[14:37] <RingZer0> ActionParsnip: thank you.
[14:37] <RingZer0> ActionParsnip: I agree
[14:37] <RingZer0> edbian: thank you too...
[14:40] <zidoh> anybody know the default number of file locks available for a user in lucid?
[14:40] <zidoh> /etc/security/limits.conf don't really set any values by default.
[14:40] <cf0531> hey
[14:40] <AbhiJit> hey
[14:40] <ActionParsnip> hey
[14:40] <aeon-ltd> hey
[14:41] <AbhiJit> is there any command line tool to downlad a page of the web site?
[14:41] <xbonesx> when you donwload stuff from synaptic package manager, is there any way to save the packages being downloaded?
[14:41] <aeon-ltd> AbhiJit: wget?
[14:41] <AbhiJit> aeon-ltd, on
[14:41] <aeon-ltd> AbhiJit: curl?
[14:41] <AbhiJit> aeon-ltd, ok
[14:42] <AbhiJit> aeon-ltd, wget is for network data
[14:42] <Pici> xbonesx: They're already saved in /var/cache/apt/archives/
[14:42] <lultz> Hey! postfix running perfect! but when i use this command " echo Test | mail -s "Test" user@domain.com" the subject are ok, content are ok, but the name get root, how can i try this name to Ubuntu Mail for example.
[14:43] <ppq> Abhijeet, take a look at the wget manpage, you can download whole websites with wget
[14:43] <AbhiJit> ppq, i want only one page
[14:44] <ppq> Abhijeet, then give wget the full path wo it
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> xbonesx: the debs are in /var/cache/apt/archives you can copy them out and use them on other rigs, or you can use aptoncd to make a handy cd of them
[14:44] <ibrahim-kasem> Hi. Is there an Ubuntu Answering Machine?
[14:44] <AbhiJit> where does wget stores bydefault?
[14:44] <krisphillips> Hey guys, I have a USB power management question
[14:44] <maedox> AbhiJit: in .
[14:44] <ppq> Abhijeet, in the dir you currently are in
[14:44] <krisphillips> Does anyone know how to disable the USB ports from sleeping on a machine?
[14:44] <ppq> Abhijeet, you can save file to whereever you want with -O file.html
[14:44] <ActionParsnip> AbhiJit: pwd
[14:45] <xbonesx> ActionParsnip: iim almost positive ive downloaded way more than whats in the folder...
[14:45] <krisphillips> I want the machine to still be able to sleep, but leave the USB ports on
[14:45] <AbhiJit> ActionParsnip, maedox ppq  yah thanks
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> xbonesx: thats what apt-get / software centre use to store them
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> !aptoncd | xbonesx
[14:45] <xbonesx> does it ever auto delete them?
[14:45] <krisphillips> Anybody got an idea?
[14:45] <krisphillips> I need a fix for this problem
[14:46] <Pici> lultz: Sounds like you're running the command as root.  You can either change the name for that user using   chfn   or try as a different user.
[14:46] <ActionParsnip> xbonesx: if you run: sudo apt-get clean    it will, or if you run: sudo apt-get autoclean   they will not be stored
[14:46] <ppq> xbonesx, no, one has to do it manually with 'apt-get clean'
[14:46] <xbonesx> SHIT
[14:46] <ppq> ouch :D
[14:46] <Pici> xbonesx: Please mind your language here.
[14:46] <aeon-ltd> krisphillips: i'm not 100% sure, but having powered usb ports is a hardware (psu to mobo) thing, i'm not sure if you can partially sleep
[14:47] <krisphillips> @aeon-ltd I was told it was OS controlled
[14:47] <krisphillips> Because there is an option in Windows to turn off USB sleep and leave them on
[14:47] <AbhiJit> how to copy the link with mouse?
[14:47] <xbonesx> sorry
[14:47] <ppq> Abhijeet, mark it and press the mouse wheel to paste
[14:47] <krisphillips> xbonesx, you're talking to a bot
[14:47] <AbhiJit> ppq, no
[14:47] <ibrahim-kasem> AbhiJit: Use the scroll button my friend :)
[14:47] <ppq> ?
[14:47] <AbhiJit> ppq, thats for text copyting i want the link behind that text
[14:47] <maedox> krisphillips: aeon-ltd, it's some acpi stuff I guess. Google might help.
[14:48] <AbhiJit> ibrahim-kasem, ^^
[14:48] <neriukas> !hello
[14:48] <AbhiJit> e.g.
[14:48] <cf0531> whos a bot?
[14:48] <krisphillips> I tried Googling for it :) .  That's why I'm here.  Haha.
[14:48] <AbhiJit> <a href="www.google.com">text</a>
[14:48] <tomswartz07> i have a quick question- there is a radio show for my uni that i would like to listen to, but it is at 3am. how could i schedule save the streaming audio?
[14:48] <ppq> Abhijeet, in the browser, right click it and select 'copy url' or so+
[14:48] <xbonesx> ive been running apt-get auto clean thinking it was removing packages that the machine had no use having, not deleting all the packages ive downloaded.... :(
[14:48] <neriukas> !bot
[14:48] <ibrahim-kasem> AbhiJit: that is what ur talking about right? copying and pasting a text.
[14:48] <Oer> AbhiJit, copy the url only, and press scrollwheel
[14:48] <AbhiJit> then i dont want to copy text i want to copy that www.google.com
[14:48] <AbhiJit> ppq, Oer ibrahim-kasem see the example
[14:48] <maedox> xbonesx: what you want is « apt-get autoremove »
[14:49] <krisphillips> Basically, the reason why I want to disable USB sleep is because when the keyboard and mouse goes to sleep, sometimes I can't wake it up and the keyboard's num lock light won't turn on, so it appears the keyboard doesn't wake up.  I plug in another keyboard and run dmesg, and it gives a bunch of "unable to enumerate" errors.  Any ideas?
[14:49] <xbonesx> maedox: and that will remove packages that arent needed
[14:49] <Oer> AbhiJit, you copied fine.
[14:49] <maedox> xbonesx: yes
[14:49] <xbonesx> but not the packages that ive downloaded
[14:49] <AbhiJit> Oer, no i can only copy the word 'text' with mouse. but i dnot want that
[14:49] <AbhiJit> Oer, i want the link
[14:50] <maedox> xbonesx: is that a question?
[14:50] <ppq> Abhijeet, in the browser, right click it and select 'copy url' or so. whats about that
[14:50] <AbhiJit> ppq, yah currently doing that only. but looking for some shorcut using mouse
[14:50] <xbonesx> maedox: yes, it wont remove the temp package that 'apt-get' leaves behind
[14:50] <xbonesx> ?
[14:51] <krisphillips> Anybody know why when I wake up a machine, I get a bunch of "unable to enumerate [insert keyboard and mouse here]"?
[14:51] <ppq> Abhijeet, ok, i guess this depends on which browser you use.. i dont know if this is possible at all
[14:51] <krisphillips> and the keyboard goes dead?
[14:51] <krisphillips> and mouse
[14:51] <maedox> xbonesx: correct, all temp files are left.
[14:51] <maedox> xbonesx: autoremove only removes unneeded dependencies
[14:53] <trans> hello everyone
[14:53] <AbhiJit> ppq, ok
[14:53] <nbubuntu> hi
[14:53] <trans> is it possible to use nokia mobile as dail up modem
[14:53] <krisphillips> anybody?  I have no idea where to go from here
[14:54] <loppypierre> hi
[14:54] <loppypierre> hello!
[14:54] <nbubuntu> I just install ubuntu 10.04 hardy , but my compiz seems to get delay when restoring window on the taskbar
[14:54] <alexxio> hi
[14:54] <nbubuntu> any help here ? thanks ?
[14:54] <xwid> pl
[14:54] <krisphillips> Anybody got an idea why waking up a machine should produce "unable to enumerate" errors on a USB device?
[14:54] <maedox> AbhiJit: There is probably an extension to help you. Mouse Gestures or similar perhaps.
[14:55] <trans> is it possible to use nokia mobile as dail up modem
[14:55] <AbhiJit> maedox, ok thanks will look at it later
[14:55] <ppq> nbubuntu, you can check that in ccsm
[14:55] <BluesKaj> nbubuntu, 10.04 is lucid , not hardy
[14:55] <nbubuntu> ppq : ccsm ?
[14:55] <no--name> what is the difference between apt-get remove and apt-get purge?
[14:55] <nbubuntu> BluesKaj : ops ...
[14:55] <nbubuntu> BluesKaj : sorry new here ,
[14:56] <maedox> no--name: purge removes config not just package
[14:56] <Pici> no--name: remove does not remove the configuration files, purge does.
[14:56] <ppq> nbubuntu, compizconfig-settings-manager
[14:56] <HexLaTor> no--name, puge remove the config files..
[14:56] <no--name> :)
[14:56] <HexLaTor> purge*
[14:56] <no--name> thanks guys
[14:56] <alexxio> i am performing a minimal installation with customized selection of packets, but maybe i'm too newbie to do this...i selected some packages with aptitude from installation console , and now it is downloading. I think anyway the system being installed won't boot because i selected too few packages..will i be able to install more without doing reformatting again?
[14:56] <ppq> nbubuntu, but be careful with that
[14:57] <nbubuntu> ppq : ? how to I join the channel ?
[14:57] <undecim> How can I suppress the auto-mount of a specific device? Do I need to write a udev rule for this?
[14:57] <krisphillips> Guys, I'm going to keep asking until someone gives me an answer
[14:57] <undecim> Or rather then suppress the mount, make it use the fstab entry
[14:57] <Silox`> Which filesystem and what mount point should my boot partition have when configuring the partitions manually?
[14:57] <HexLaTor> nbubuntu, ccsm is compiz manager or something like this: (apt-get install ccsm)
[14:57] <ppq> alexxio, do you install using the alternate cd? it installs a bootable system even when you select nothing and it only installs ubuntu-mnimal meta package
[14:57] <krisphillips> Why does Ubuntu keep throwing errors about unable to enumerate when waking up?  Is that a common problem and how do I keep the USB from sleeping?
[14:57] <maedox> krisphillips: keep going until some op gets annoyed. :P
[14:58] <maedox> krisphillips: did you try google.com?
[14:58] <undecim> Silox`: If you need a separate boot partition, ext2 is good, since you won't be writing to it much, and 64 MB is plenty
[14:58] <krisphillips> Yes.  I wouldn't be here if I hadn't
[14:58] <alexxio> yes i used the alternate
[14:58] <ppq> nbubuntu, thats noch a channel, thats a package you can install with synaptic or software-center or aptitude or apt-get.. or whatever you like
[14:58] <Pici> ppq: The alternate CD does a full desktop installation. alexxio is talking about the minimal cd.
[14:58] <krisphillips> @maedox there are ways around op's banning you
[14:58] <krisphillips> like, changing your name and IP
[14:58] <ppq> Pici, you can install a minimal system from the alternate cd (f4 - options)
[14:58] <Silox`> undecim: I don't know if I need it, I just followed some people their instruction, is it better to have a seperate boot partition?
[14:58] <krisphillips> but I'm not planning on ticking them off
[14:58] <krisphillips> I just want an answer
[14:58] <undecim> Silox`: Thought unless you have a specific need for a separate boot partition (BIOS issues, multiple Linuxs, etc), don't worry with it.
[14:58] <krisphillips> I posted on the Ubuntu forums twice with no response
[14:59] <nbubuntu> ppq : I have that , i am having delay when restoring window from taskbar
[14:59] <krisphillips> and I'm getting a similar response here
[14:59] <no--name> does purge get rid of stuff in both ~ and /etc?
[14:59] <st__> peace, people
[14:59] <alexxio> ppq: i need to install the minimal system with skype and a browser for my eldy uncle, but the pc i'm using is too old and i don't want to waste space because i just have few GB of hd
[14:59] <Silox`> undecim: so I can leave that behind and just get a swap, root and home?
[14:59] <edakiri> krisphillips: where do you see the message?
[14:59] <maedox> krisphillips: It's probably an odd issue then.
[14:59] <krisphillips> when I run dmesg
[14:59] <undecim> Silox`: I don't see why not.
[14:59] <krisphillips> it says about 50 times "unable to enumerate" for my keyboard and mouse
[14:59] <st__> alexxio, it will stop being minimal if you need GUI and sound
[14:59] <krisphillips> and I have to plug in a PS2 keyboard to get it going
[14:59] <krisphillips> to wake it up
[14:59] <ppq> alexxio, then you maybe should use xfce or lxde instead of gnome, btw.
[14:59] <undecim> Silox`: Like I said, unless you have a specific need for it, I wouldn't worry with it.
[14:59] <krisphillips> or reboot the whole machine
[14:59] <st__> alexxio, it's 200-300 MB each
[15:00] <Silox`> undecim: ok, thanks, last question: what mount point should I set for my windows partition?
[15:00] <edakiri> krisphillips: I have USB and do not witness the problem
[15:00] <alexxio> ok guys thank you
[15:00] <BluesKaj> krisphillips, it's one thing to demand an answer, but i't another to get the orrect one , hence no answer is better than the wrong one
[15:00] <nbubuntu> ppq : I did a fresh install ubuntu 10.04 , Updated it , install Ati driver at System -> Hardware Driver list  and I get a restore window delay 2 sec
[15:00] <edakiri> Silox`: could be under /mnt or /media
[15:00] <ppq> alexxio, and even if the system doesn't boot because you installed too few packages, you can boot a live cd, chroot and install what you like to
[15:00] <edakiri> Silox`: subdirectories thereof
[15:00] <undecim> Silox`: Are you setting up Ubuntu with the normal desktop graphical installer or something like the alternate install?
[15:00] <maedox> krisphillips: what kind of mouse+keyboard is it? some wireless crap?
[15:00] <sKeith> nice answer BluesKaj
[15:00] <ppq> nbubuntu, ok, i misunderstood you
[15:00] <krisphillips> @BluesKaj I just don't understand how just keeping the USB from sleeping is such a hard question that I need to be ignored.
[15:00] <Silox`> undecim: ubuntu 10.04 live Cd, installing from the GUI
[15:01] <krisphillips> @maedox Its a wired Logitech keyboard
[15:01] <nbubuntu> ppq : Is ok , i didn't mention it well enough :)
[15:01] <krisphillips> and I appreciate you guys answering me :) .  I really do.  Its just frustrating cuz I've been working on this for 10 days
[15:01] <alexxio> i'll just do the possible to install the miniootbmal packages ^^  and i hope it will boot because i finished my cds and the bios doesnt support usb drive
[15:01] <undecim> Silox`: I wouldn't worry with specifying your windows mount point either. udev will detect it and automatically mount it based on label or UUID to a folder in /media
[15:01] <krisphillips> and its for the school I work for volunteering
[15:01] <Silox`> ok, great, thanks!
[15:01] <maedox> krisphillips: does it do the same in all ports? do you have a usb hub to test with? what about memorysticks?
[15:01] <undecim> Silox`: Or even if it doesn't mount it automatically, it will mount it when you click on it
[15:01] <alexxio> (i rewrite)i'll just do the possible to install the minimal packages ^^  and i hope it will boot because i finished my cds and the bios doesnt support usb drive booting
[15:01] <nbubuntu> ppq : so is there any guide for it ?
[15:02] <undecim> Silox`: Are you just trying to set up a separate home partition?
[15:02] <edbian> krisphillips, What is the module for the keyboard?  Have you tried modprobe -r it and then re-modprobeing it?
[15:02] <krisphillips> I'm using a hub for the keyboard and mouse.  There are four monitors, four keyboards, four mice, all statically assigned in Xorg.conf
[15:02] <Silox`> undecim: yes, I am
[15:02] <krisphillips> I tried using modprobe usbhid with no success
[15:02] <ppq> nbubuntu, we don't know exactly what your problem is, so a guide wouldn't help
[15:02] <ppq> nbubuntu, please tell us what your graphic card is
[15:02] <krisphillips> and removing and readding the usbhid module to see if that fixes it, but it just kills all keyboards and mice
[15:03] <nbubuntu> ppq :ATI  HD 3870
[15:03] <ppq> nbubuntu, ok, and you installed fglrx, right?
[15:03] <undecim> Silox`: Then you just need to worry about root, swap and home. Make root 5-10gb, depending on how many apps you like to install, put at least as much as your ram for swap (assuming you want to have hibernate), and share the rest as you wish between /home and Windows.
[15:03] <krisphillips> then nothing USB Human Interface Device works
[15:03] <krisphillips> Cuz I tried it with a script to remove and readd it
[15:03] <Silox`> undecim: taht was my plan ^^
[15:04] <krisphillips> Its irritating cuz the students use the machines and if one screen does it, I have to reboot the machine that runs all four monitors, kicking three other students off
[15:04] <ppq> nbubuntu, what does 'glxinfo | grep direct' say? and 'lspci -v'? (put in in a pastebin pls)
[15:04] <nbubuntu> ppq : I just follow it installing Administration -> Hardware Driver
[15:04] <krisphillips> Is there at least a way to kill power to USB and then restart it?
[15:04] <krisphillips> Or SOMETHING
[15:04] <undecim> Silox`: If you have enough ram, and don't care about hibernate, you could even leave swap out completely or make it smaller so you have more storage space. It all depends on how you use your computer.
[15:05] <krisphillips> At least a workaround would be nice for now
[15:05] <Silox`> undecim: ok, thanks, I'll let you know if I managed or not :)
[15:05] <edakiri> krisphillips: there is a kernel option if you wish to recompile the kernel.  I don't think it is settable afterwards, but am uncertain
[15:05] <krisphillips> @edakiri I've never compiled a kernel before
[15:05] <nbubuntu> ppq : It said I am not install "he program 'glxinfo' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install mesa-utils"
[15:06] <edakiri> krisphillips: kernel option is for whether to presume USB devices are where they were before sleep
[15:06] <ppq> nbubuntu, ok, please install it
[15:06] <undecim> krisphillips: Can you re-summarize your problem? (preferably in one message)
[15:06] <krisphillips> One moment.  I'll get my Xorg.conf and the error message for you guys
[15:06] <krisphillips> and start from the beginning
[15:07] <Silox`> undecim: so my NTFS (windows partition) its mount point is freely to choose?
[15:07] <Dice-Man> Silox`yep
[15:07] <nbubuntu> ppq : finish install , and I type glxinfo | grep direct , It shows "direct rendering: Yes"
[15:07] <undecim> Silox`: For Windows, just specifiy "don't use this partition" (or whatever the text for that option is... I forget the specifics)
[15:08] <Silox`> Dice-Man: ok, thanks!
[15:08] <st__> Silox`, yes, you can even use them by temporary mount points at /media/{LABEL}
[15:08] <ppq> nbubuntu, ok, now 'lspci -v | pastebinit'
[15:08] <undecim> Silox`: udev will automatically handle it in /media
[15:08] <Silox`> ok
[15:08] <no--name> is there a difference between synaptic complete removal function and apt-get purge ?
[15:08] <edakiri> krisphillips: make sure you disable debug symbols or the package will be bloated.  The 'plymouth' in LLynx is somewhat broken, so you may have better luck with Ubuntu+1.  start here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile

[15:09] <cdavis> What version of Glib does 10.04 use? I am trying to get sawmill to run
[15:10] <ppq> marsfligth, you can use ffmpeg, take a look at its manpage
[15:10] <semko> hi
[15:10] <maedox> krisphillips: « powertop » might be able to help you. See here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=644978   I also believe you can do most acpi stuff as boot options to the kernel.
[15:10] <semko> do you know how can i subscribe to a newsgroup?

[15:10] <krisphillips> @maedox.  I'll give powertop a try.  I heard about it, but have no idea if it'll work or not

[15:11] <edbian> Silox`, That's a big swap.
[15:11] <krisphillips> Anyway, here is my Xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/Mz02kfN2
[15:11] <Silox`> twice my ram, but I have 4 gigs of ram already?
[15:11] <swombat> Hello... while trying to boot up on the Kubuntu 10.04 32-bit install CD, I get the following error message: (initramfs) mount: mounting /dev/loop0 on //filesystem.squashfs failed: Input/output error    Can not mount /dev/loop0 (/cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs) on ///filesystem.squashfs ... I've googled around and found mostly suggestions that the image might be corrupt, but the downloaded iso's md5 checks out correctly. I
[15:11] <swombat>  can't run the "verify disk" on the kubuntu cd because it gives the same error. Any thoughts?
[15:11] <cdavis> Or how do I determine what version of glib I am running?
[15:12] <edbian> Silox`, well twice of 4 gigs of ram is 8.  But that rule is out-dated.  It really should be twice your ram or 2GB whatever comes first.
[15:12] <ppq> nbubuntu, ok, now 'pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log'
[15:12] <edbian> Silox`, 2Gb is plenty of ram.  On all of my systems I have 1Gb
[15:12] <Silox`> ok, i'll start again :')
[15:12] <sKeith> is there a official link / tutorial on recompiling kernel for ubuntu
[15:12] <Pici> !kernel | sKeith
[15:12] <edbian> Silox`, Not a huge deal :)  Just my opinion.
[15:12] <maedox> krisphillips: yeah, I don't know either, you just have to try it. I used it a long time ago on my previous laptop with great success.
[15:12] <Oer> swombat download again, and do md5sum check

[15:13] <coz_> cdavis,  well you could open synaptic package manager and check there
[15:13] <krisphillips> I have four screens, four mice, four keyboards, and four hubs.  The machine will wake 3 out of 4 of the screens, but the keyboard will be dead on one and will give an error saying "unable to enumerate [insert device]".  This only occurs at the login screen and only when it goes to sleep.  Any ideas?
[15:13] <hackedx> admin account www.jizzhut.com
[15:13] <coz_> cdavis,  trying to remember the terminal command
[15:13] <krisphillips> @undecim did you get all that?
[15:13] <undecim> krisphillips: yeah
[15:14] <krisphillips> @undecim OK.  Let me know when you get a chance to look it over.  I'm at wits end, so any ideas would help
[15:14] <undecim> krisphillips: So it seems that some of the devices are not powering back up after the computer enters sleep mode?
[15:14] <sipior> krisphillips: is it a usb power issue? if you remove one or two of the other hubs, does the keyboard still cause problems?
[15:15] <krisphillips> Only one out of the 3 hubs of devices doesn't come on.  The rest of the workstations function normally
[15:15] <Macchia> please, for italian channel
[15:15] <nbubuntu> ppq : http://pastebin.com/6gpyPX6r

[15:18] <cdavis> coz_: What package am I specifically looking for? libglib ?
[15:18] <ppq> nbubuntu, please start the ati control center
[15:19] <BluesKaj> krisphillips, one that bothers me about the xorg.conf is  "Section "ServerFlags" Option      "AutoEnableDevices" "false" , can someone clear that up ,,,seems wrong
[15:19] <coz_> cdavis,   in synaptic ? hold on
[15:19] <kjetilho> why isn't it adding the architecture to that URL?
[15:19] <undecim> krisphillips: It's a background service that handle power management and gives a dbus interface for it...
[15:19] <undecim> krisphillips: I'm actually not sure how to work with it, but I can do a little Googling...
[15:19] <ppq> nbubuntu, you'll find it in system -> settings -> ati catalyst control center or so. you need to start it as root, with administrative rights
[15:19] <krisphillips> @BluesKaj What exactly about it is that bothers you about it?  I'm not entirely sure what the argument does
[15:19] <krisphillips> Sorry, I hit @ again.  Habit.
[15:20] <ppq> nbubuntu, you have to deactivate an option called "Powerplay" there
[15:20] <coz_> cdavis,  when you open synaptic,,,click "Search"  type in  glib  and the ones installed shoulw show up
[15:21] <BluesKaj> krisphillips, not sure either , but it's under server flags , so it might be irrelavent
[15:21] <coz_> cdavis,   libglib  is what you are looking for
[15:21] <Silox`> fuuuuuu dvddisk failure
[15:21] <nbubuntu> ppq : I dont see any powerplay
[15:22] <cdavis> coz_: Thank you
[15:22] <ppq> nbubuntu, do you use ubuntu 10.04?
[15:22] <nbubuntu> ppq : yes
[15:22] <coz_> cdavis,  no problem...there is an easier way to find that in terminal ...it just slipped my mind  ...bad day :)
[15:22] <robbit10> Hi people. A few hours ago, I booted up my computer and it was acting very strangely. First, I had no internet, and it did not show a network interface. ifconfig also showed no eth0. Next, when I rebooted my Ubuntu, it reported that there was no SWAP and therefore did not boot. I solved all this by turning off my PC with it's backside power switch, and unplugging it, then plugging it back in and turning on the power switch. All of it was sudd
[15:22] <robbit10> enly gone. But my question is, what caused this? Is there something broke in my PC? Will it happen again soon?
[15:22] <robbit10> (did my message get cut off?)
[15:23] <nbubuntu> ppq : what do you mean start it as root ?
[15:23] <ppq> nbubuntu, there should be two menu entries for the control center - one with root, one without
[15:24] <nbubuntu> ppq : i didn't see any option for powerplay
[15:25] <Vardan> people how to change gtk theme? I want that my gtk apps have the oxygen theme.

[15:26] <tobylane> im trying to show someone some linux variants suitable for a netbook, would distros like eeebuntu work in a VM?
[15:26] <ehcah> hello. Does anyone here use ebox or zentyal to manage their box? I understand that zentyal is the new ebox, but don't understand the difference between 1.5 and 2? From what I read, it also seems to be more of a server install sitting on top of ubuntu?
[15:27] <ChogyDan> tobylane: yeah, I think it will work, but you should check out netbook remix
[15:27] <ppq> tobylane, yes
[15:27] <tobylane> how do the three vary?
[15:27] <krisphillips> I'm wondering if disabling the "AutoEnableDevices" flag would fix the keyboard issue......
[15:27] <edbian> tobylane, Any OS will work in a virtual machine.  That's the point of a virtual machine.
[15:28] <undecim> krisphillips: Alright... all those devices mentioned in the "Input Device" sections.. the /dev/input/by-path/  devices. Can you make sure all of those exist after returning from sleep?
[15:28] <undecim> krisphillips: Specifically, any of the ones that aren't working. I want to know if that input device file exists after return from sleep.
[15:28] <tobylane> eeebuntu seems to expect an eeepc and its hardware, but yeah no harm in trying
[15:28] <alexxio> does it exist a grub hotkey for booting failsafe? my system hangs up!! :(((
[15:28] <undecim> krisphillips: Sorry, I got disconnected a moment ago...

[15:29] <undecim> last*
[15:29] <tobylane> if i install ubuntu beta, can i turn it into netbook remix and back, by turning the repo on and off?
[15:29] <edbian> tobylane, You could create a virtual machine with that hardware.  (Although you might have to write the code yourself! :P )
[15:29] <ppq> alexxio, press ESC a few times to get in the grub2 boot menu
[15:29] <alexxio> ok
[15:29] <ppq> alexxio, then select the recovery mode. anway, what's wrong?
[15:29] <alexxio> it hangs up when asking for login name (tty)
[15:29] <alexxio> :/
[15:29] <edbian> tobylane, Ubuntu Netbook is just Ubuntu with a couple extra packages.  You don't even need to add repos.
[15:29] <ppq> alexxio, is this the minimal system you just installed?
[15:29] <alexxio> :(
[15:29] <alexxio> yes
[15:29] <FloodBot4> alexxio: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:29] <tobylane> ok, ty
[15:30] <alexxio> that's strange it hangs up btw

[15:48] <mikubuntu> coz_: can you tell me how to extract it using the archive manager?  i don't really know where it put the file, but i have the archive mgr in front of me

[15:50] <mikubuntu> coz_: don't i have to send it to a particular folder?
[15:50] <ixM`> Have you any idea what I could check/fix
[15:50] <coz_> mikubuntu,  no not for the self contained application
[15:50] <nbubuntu> Oli``: I didn't install  aticonfig driver
[15:50] <BluesKaj> nbubuntu, look in sytem monitor to see what is using up your cpu , that's probly the problem , not the graphics
[15:50] <New2Ubuntu> HI ALL
[15:50] <coz_> mikubuntu,  if you insiste on istalling it the procedure is here  http://wiki.celtx.com/index.php?title=Installation#For_Linux
[15:51] <undecim> DTH0: Found it yet?
[15:51] <coz_> mikubuntu,  personally I wouldnt install it until you are sure it is what you want  and even then...it is kind of  neat that it is self contained and can be removed just by deleting the folder
[15:51] <nbubuntu> BluesKaj: I am using fan controller for my cpu fan so it shouldn't be on cpu fan
[15:51] <Oli``> nbubuntu: what driver are you using?
[15:51] <ixM`> any idea ?
[15:52] <nbubuntu> Oli``: how to check ?
[15:52] <coz_> mikubuntu,  is the package now extracted?
[15:52] <vjr> hi
[15:52] <undecim> DTH0: I read over the howto and understand what you need now. What is the your root device? (i.e. the device that Ubuntu is installed to)
[15:52] <san_> hai
[15:53] <mikubuntu> coz_: i looking at the archive mgr  it has filled in the location textarea "/celtx/"
[15:53] <Glen_> got a question. I am having problems with my video driver   It will not install correctly.   I have an NVidia 7050.   I was told that because the hardware is old (over 3 years) Ubuntu will not keep drivers for it in the repository.  First is this true? I have tried the 2 nvidia drivers that are included in 10.04LTS and they are not working.   Second, If I go back to the previous version of Ubuntu that is supposed to have correct drivers in
[15:53] <Glen_>  it and install that and then upgrade to 10.04, will the drivers that work follow me with the new upgrade?
[15:53] <_Dave> hi all. is perl-5.12.2 source packaged anywhere?
[15:53] <mikubuntu> coz_: so do i just click on extract?
[15:53] <coz_> mikubuntu,  ooo  delete that folder and package and download it again if it fails
[15:53] <coz_> mikubuntu,   yep just right click and Extract here
[15:54] <coz_> mikubuntu,  then open a terminal   cd  Desktop  then   cd  celtx
[15:54] <tobylane> i wish there was a public netboot server
[15:54] <coz_> mikubuntu,   then type  ./celtx & disown
[15:54] <tobylane> or at least a hypervisor or something, enough to then download the live/install cd
[15:54] <cromag> hello, i get kernel panic after an upgrade from last night http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1580219 - sugestions are very welcome
[15:55] <DrPoO> hi, how do i recursively find files of a given filetype using the command line on a given directory?
[15:55] <arifovic> Why my connection suddenly dead if I run rhythebox?
[15:55] <mikubuntu> coz_: it opened another box and seems to show a path mikubuntu>desktop>________________ like i'm sposed to put a location in there
[15:55] <undecim> DrPoO: You need to use the "find" command
[15:56] <abhinav_singh1> i am having 1000 of images in .png format .....i want to convert them to .jpeg format is one go....please tell me how to do it.....
[15:56] <undecim> DrPoO: I think it will only recognize file extensions though, not mime types
[15:56] <_Dave> abhinav_singh1: imagemagick or pbmplus
[15:56] <DrPoO> undecim, thnx
[15:56] <abhinav_singh1> _Dave can you please help me with that
[15:56] <_Dave> JFGI
[15:56] <coz_> mikubuntu,  wait   you extracted the package.... opened a terminal...cd  Desktop...then    cd celtx.... then typed   ./celtx & disown  ...yes?
[15:56] <arruah> salut there
[15:57] <Dice-Man> :s powertop
[15:57] <undecim> DrPoO: For example, to find all .jpg files in Pictures, "find Pictures -iname *.jpg"
[15:57] <arruah> anybody speak russian ?
[15:57] <geirha> abhinav_singh1: for file in *.png; do convert "$file" "${file%.png}.jpg"; done  # convert is installed by the imagemagick package
[15:57] <_Dave> abhinav_singh1: the reverse of this: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/convert.php
[15:57] <cromag> !ru
[15:57] <mikubuntu> coz_: i don't know if it ever extracted
[15:57] <arruah> !ru
[15:58] <undecim> DrPoO: You should put a "\" before that * though so that bash sends it the find command rather than expanding it itself.
[15:58] <arifovic> Why my connection suddenly dead if I run rhythembox?
[15:58] <arruah> to cromag thanks
[15:58] <coz_> mikubuntu,   the tar.bz package on the desktop....did you right click that and  choose  "Extract here"

[16:01] <ppq> Glen_, the current nvidia-glx driver supports all cards since 6xxx
[16:01] <ppq> Glen_, so your 7050 *should* work with it
[16:02] <coz_> mikubuntu,   or you can extract the package via the terminal also
[16:02] <coz_> mikubuntu,   this is a tar.bz2  package ...yes?
[16:03] <ppq> Glen_, please nopaste your Xorg.0.log when using the nvidia-glx-current driver

[16:04] <dpac_> I have a problem. My windows 7 bootloader broke. So I installed 'mbr' and used the install-mbr command to install the mbr on that partition. Now that ntfs partition is listed as unknown in gparted and it is no more shown in nautilus. Want some help to fix it.
[16:04] <coz_> mikubuntu,   and that package still exists on the desktop ...yes?
[16:05] <mikubuntu> i don't see it on the desktop, but it's 'in' the archive mgr window
[16:05] <coz_> mikubuntu,  and it is named   Celtx-2.7.tar.bz2   ...yes?
[16:05] <tobylane> anyone know of an automated language file translator?
[16:05] <st__> tobylane, there are none
[16:05] <_Dave> abhinav_singh1: put it in a shell for loop
[16:05] <coz_> mikubuntu,   mmm  find the actuall location of the package
[16:06] <DormantOden> iceroot: do you know if I should I add modprobe as the module to blacklist or padlock_sha?
[16:06] <_Dave> so, no-one hs thoughts on perl 5.12.2 in ubuntu?
[16:06] <mikubuntu> coz_: yes Celtx-2.7.tar.bz2
[16:06] <tobylane> shame, google translate is so perfect it'd save time to do it that way then fix the 1% wrong
[16:06] <iceroot> DormantOden: padlock
[16:06] <DormantOden> ta
[16:06] <coz_> mikubuntu,  did you download this diretly to the package manager?
[16:06] <_Dave> tobylane: google translate is on crack for chinese
[16:06] <st__> tobylane, google translate is awful
[16:06] <Whitorr> dpac_, what file system type is your windows 7 partition set to?  you can use fdisk /dev/yourhdhere and then option p to find out

[16:07] <mikubuntu> coz_: you see the archive mgr windows on http://imagebin.org/115378
[16:07] <coz_> mikubuntu,   go here   http://celtx.com/   download the package to the "Desktop"  NOT  via the archive manager
[16:08] <geirha> abhinav_singh1: You don't need a shell script, you can just run that line in an interactive shell.
[16:08] <Whitorr> dpac_, Whats is the partition ID ?
[16:08] <mikubuntu> coz_: k
[16:08] <coz_> mikubuntu,  tell me when you actually see the package on the Desktop
[16:09] <syli725> hi, I am new to ubuntu. My CPU is intel 64bits. Where can I find intel 64bits version of ubuntu? I can only find 32bit and amd64 versions. thanks.
[16:09] <mikubuntu> coz_: think i have to launch firefox to do that, gimme minute
[16:09] <obscene> hi
[16:09] <SwedeMike> syli725: amd64 is the one you want.
[16:09] <undecim> syli725: Despite its name, the amd64 version of Ubuntu works on all x86 64-bit processors
[16:09] <dpac_> Whitorr: There are a lot of entries. I am pasting the output on pastebin
[16:09] <syli725> SwedeMike: thanks. got it. undecim: thanks.
[16:10] <dpac_> Whitorr: http://pastebin.ca/1947522
[16:10] <tobylane> why is it still called amd?
[16:10] <SwedeMike> tobylane: amd inventedit. Wikipedia for amd64 and you'll get a lot of background.
[16:10] <frinsk> how come my /etc/X11/xorg.conf is missing?
[16:10] <tobylane> afaik that became defunct within months
[16:11] <SwedeMike> frinsk: xorg.conf has decent defaults, a lot of the time it workswithout any settings.

[16:11] <coz_> mikubuntu,  you understand this is  "pre-production" application it doesnt actually deal with video etc  yes?
[16:12] <mikubuntu> coz_: yes, its a pre production toolset
[16:12] <circumbendibus> anyone ever used fbcmd?
[16:12] <tobylane> how long does it take to compile a release?
[16:12] <coz_> mikubuntu,  ok did you download it ?
[16:12] <nyc-h0st> can anyone shine some light how to make rsyslog work with libmysqlclient.so.16, its looking for libmysqlclient.so.15
[16:12] <funkiwan> can someone help me figure out why my ext4 filesystem won't boot if i set data=writeback in /etc/fstab?
[16:12] <undecim> Anyone know how to get my screen (intel GPU) to stop flickering?
[16:12] <iceroot> tobylane: depending on the hardware 1-2 days
[16:12] <mikubuntu> coz_: its dling 70 percent
[16:13] <iceroot> tobylane: openoffice takes 5 hours
[16:13] <coz_> mikubuntu,  ok let me know when it is finished
[16:13] <undecim> funkiwan: You need to put 'rootflags=data=writeback' in grub
[16:13] <syli725> I am using opensuse and plan to switch to ubuntu. I have a question regarding encryped partitions. In opensuse, the default installer partitioner has a wizard to create encrypted partitions very easily with a few clicks. Then it will be mounted automatically in startup. Is that possible in ubuntu? do I need to install any extra packages in order to use my old encryped partitions OR this feature is builtin by default as well in ubuntu? thanks.
[16:14] <undecim> funkiwan: You can get to the grub menu by holding right-shift as you see your manufacturer's logo until you get to the menu, press e to edit the first option, add that to the end of the line that begins "linux" and press ctrl+x to boot it once for now...
[16:14] <Oer> syli725, yes, during installation you will get the option, to encrypt your homedir.
[16:14] <dpac> Whitorr: Sorry, talk on this. I got disconnected. Also, if you sent any message in last 2 minutes, requesting you to resend them :)
[16:14] <abhinav_singh1> i have found the following command http://www.imagemagick.org/script/command-line-processing.php ....but i want *.png to be converted to *.jpg i mean image name should not be changed only format should changed
[16:14] <funkiwan> undecim: sweet. will try
[16:14] <ppq> syli725, you need to install using the alternate cd if you want to install to a luks-encrypted partition. it's possible with the desktop cd but a bit complicated
[16:15] <ppq> syli725, after installing cryptsetup you should be able to open and mount your old partitions with your old data
[16:15] <funkiwan> undecim: what's strange is this seemed to be chugging along just fine, and then on my last reboot, it didn't work. any idea why that would be the case?
[16:15] <undecim> funkiwan: After you do a successful boot like that, you need to make the change permanent by going to /etc/default/grub and adding that to the CMDLINE_LINUX variable (i forget the exact name of it, but it's whichever one DOESN'T have "DEFAULT" after it) and running sudo update-grub
[16:15] <jrib> abhinav_singh1: you want a file named .png that is actually a jpg?
[16:15] <syli725> ppq: Oer just gave a different answer. he said there was an option during installation. not?
[16:15] <Whitorr> dpac, did you use any special software to partition this drive ?
[16:15] <ppq> syli725, btw, imho it's better to do what Oer said and just encrypt the home dir instead of / (root)
[16:15] <abhinav_singh1> jrib no i want a.png to be converted to a.jpg
[16:16] <undecim> funkiwan: Have you had a successful reboot since making the change to fstab?
[16:16] <jrib> abhinav_singh1: you said image name should not be changed
[16:16] <iceroot> abhinav_singh1: imagemagick is your friend if you want it with the cli
[16:16] <undecim> funkiwan: Or did you just change it and not reboot since?
[16:16] <dpac> Whitorr: No, I just used install-mbr command to restore the mbr. It made the partition unidentifiable.
[16:16] <coz_> mikubuntu,   finished ?
[16:16] <Whitorr> dpac, do you care about the data on the partitions? (do oyu have backups of the important stuff?)
[16:16] <permalac> HI. Just presented 10Tb from a storedata with multipath to a 10.04 but it not seems to see it. What I can do?
[16:16] <Jalopnik> HEY LADIES
[16:16] <mikubuntu> coz_: y, on desktop now
[16:16] <coz_> Jalopnik,  hey girl  lol
[16:16] <coz_> mikubuntu,  ok  look on the Desktop and be sure the package  Celtx-2.7.tar.bz2 is actually there..if it is there....simply right click the package and choose "Extract here"
[16:17] <syli725> ppq: is  cryptsetup package installed by default or not?
[16:17] <mikubuntu> coz_: right click and extract here
[16:17] <dpac> Whitorr: I hardly use that partition. I hardly use windows. But yes, it would be nice if I could repair it. I know it can be done
[16:17] <coz_> mikubuntu,  yes
[16:17] <geirha> abhinav_singh1: for file in *.png; do convert "$file" "${file%.png}.jpg"; done
[16:17] <funkiwan> undecim: well, when it happened, i googled the error, manually mounted the filesystem, edited fstab, and then rebooted
[16:17] <undecim> syli725: cryptsetup is installed on the live cd, but on a default desktop install, I think it is only included if you have an encrypted home dir.
[16:17] <ppq> syli725, i'm not sure, but it's very easy to install it manually
[16:17] <AbhiJit> abhinav_singh1, there is a software named 'gprename' try it
[16:17] <mikubuntu> coz_: k, reading archive
[16:17] <funkiwan> undecim: so currently, i'm not in writeback mode
[16:18] <undecim> funkiwan: Okay, so you are booted into your system now?
[16:18] <syli725> Oer: thanks for the reply. So does it mean I can simply use the old fstab to mount my old encryped partition at startup?
[16:18] <funkiwan> undecim: roger
[16:18] <syli725> undecim: thanks.
[16:18] <obengdako> guys do you know any chat client for phone that supports irc?
[16:19] <undecim> funkiwan: Okay, make the changes to fstab again, then add "rootflags=data=writeback" to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX variable in /etc/default/grub. Then, you need to run "sudo update-grub"
[16:19] <DormantOden> iceroot: After blacklisting the module the system just hangs where it usually errors. Is there anyway to get ubuntu to ignore all errors and keep booting on its own (without me hitting ctrl+d) ?
[16:19] <nbubuntu> I am getting a lot of freeze after install 10.04
[16:19] <nbubuntu> Any fix for it ?
[16:19] <mikubuntu> coz_: k, now there's a blue folder called celtx on the desktop
[16:19] <Whitorr> dpac, if you are certain which partition in the NTFS one, you can manually change its partition ID to type 7 and try to remount.
[16:19] <undecim> funkiwan: After doing those 3 things, you should be able to reboot fine.
[16:19] <coz_> mikubuntu,   now to make this simple  you can simply cut and paste that extracted  celtx folder into the home directory
[16:19] <iceroot> DormantOden: what error exactly?
[16:19] <mikubuntu> coz_: huh??? :)
[16:20] <dpac> Whitorr: How do I manually change it?
[16:20] <coz_> mikubuntu,  ok open  Places   HOme  from the menu
[16:20] <undecim> nbubuntu: By freezes, you mean complete lockups and you have to press the power button, or you mean it freezes some but comes back after a while?
[16:20] <DormantOden> modpprobe: FATAL: Error inserting padlock_sha
[16:20] <mikubuntu> coz_: you can never make things too simple for me
[16:20] <tobylane> if i upgrade from a previous version, can i make an iso of the current version?
[16:20] <coz_> mikubuntu,   rather  Places  Home folder
[16:20] <tobylane> can i make an iso of my settings?
[16:20] <nbubuntu> undecim: A total lockup , for mouse button but fine on keyboard
[16:20] <Whitorr> dpac, in fdisk ...  use ? to see the options ... I think it is t
[16:21] <coz_> mikubuntu,  is the home folder opened?
[16:21] <undecim> nbubuntu: So the keyboard still works fine?
[16:21] <mikubuntu> coz_: y
[16:21] <iceroot> DormantOden: when it is blacklisted the error should not come up
[16:21] <AbhiJit> abhinav_singh1, can you read me?
[16:21] <dpac> Whitorr: Let me try
[16:21] <Whitorr> dpac, t then the partition number, then the id oyu want to change it to ... l to list codes
[16:21] <syli725> any recommended book or article for a normal opensuse user? should I read the entire documentation? thanks.
[16:21] <DormantOden> it dosen't, it just does nothing
[16:21] <Whitorr> dpac, good luck
[16:21] <abhinav_singh1> AbhiJit...no brother
[16:21] <abhinav_singh1> please send me im
[16:21] <nbubuntu> undecim: The only thing I did was , "at the mouse" "at the desktop" "press and hold right click and click a few times left click "
[16:21] <AbhiJit> abhinav_singh1, ohhhhhhhhh
[16:21] <Whitorr> dpac, this advice comes with no warranty attached
[16:21] <coz_> mikubuntu, ok  push that  home folder window off to the side so you can actually see the celtx folder on the desktop...then left click and hold  on that folder while you drag it to the home folder window
[16:22] <nbubuntu> undecim: At desktop ,  "press and hold right click and click a few times left click " and it get freeze , can someone test it out ?
[16:22] <undecim> nbubuntu: So does your entire computer freeze or just the mouse?
[16:22] <Oer> syli725, yes. as easy as suse.
[16:22] <dpac> Whitorr: I know :). BTW, why does sda1 contain 4 other partition? How is that even possible
[16:22] <nbubuntu> undecim: It works fine because I can tab and ctrl+alt backspace
[16:22] <nbubuntu> undecim: mouse
[16:22] <undecim> nbubuntu: When your mouse freezes again, press CTRL+ALT+F1, log in there, and type "dmesg" and press enter
[16:22] <DormantOden> iceroot: just sits there after the line: /dev/sda1 clean, 167558/22222222 files, 11111/11111 blocks
[16:22] <coz_> mikubuntu,   did you drag it into the home directory?
[16:23] <st__> syli725, i doubt the any amount of documentation will cover rpm distros
[16:23] <AbhiJit> abhinav_singh1, i said you to try gprename
[16:23] <mikubuntu> coz_: k, yes in the home directory now
[16:23] <iceroot> DormantOden: hm i dont know what padlock_sha is doing normally
[16:23] <DormantOden> iceroot: It only happens when its trying to mount my raid 1 array
[16:23] <coz_> mikubuntu,  ok now open a terminal from  Applications...Accessories.. Terminal
[16:23] <undecim> nbubuntu: actually, better yet, install pastebinit with "sudo aptitude install pastebinit" if possible and run "dmesg | pastebinit" and post the link here if possible.
[16:23] <abhinav_singh1> AbhiJit
[16:23] <funkiwan> undecim: okay, will do. here's the kicker: in addition to my normal boot, i also backup my system to a usb external drive. in order to boot from this system, i have to boot off of a special bootcd i created. this bootcd runs legacy grub. if i wanted to do this with legacy grub, would it be enough to "data=writeback" to the kernel line?
[16:24] <AbhiJit> abhinav_singh1, yes?
[16:24] <abhinav_singh1> ok i am downloading it AbhiJit
[16:24] <AbhiJit> abhinav_singh1, hmm
[16:24] <nbubuntu> undecim: ok , do you have a firefox install ?
[16:24] <nbubuntu> undecim: with add ons "firegestures"
[16:24] <mikubuntu> coz_: term open
[16:24] <coz_> mikubuntu, ok in that terminal type      cd  celtx  and hit  enter
[16:24] <undecim> funkiwan: It needs to be "rootflags=data=writeback" on the kernel line
[16:24] <abhinav_singh1> AbhiJit: it is done bro
[16:25] <undecim> nbubuntu: No, I don't
[16:25] <AbhiJit> abhinav_singh1, hmm now try it
[16:25] <Shinydan> I'm trying to move .mp3s to my LG phone, but Ubuntu 10.04 is giving an "Operation not supported by back-end" message. How can I fix this?
[16:25] <abhinav_singh1> what AbhiJit how?
[16:25] <nbubuntu> undecim: I mean , re you using firefox browser ?
[16:25] <AbhiJit> abhinav_singh1, :o
[16:26] <AbhiJit> abhinav_singh1, dunnoa!!! :P :P :D
[16:26] <undecim> nbubuntu: I'm using firefox, yes, but not firegestures.
[16:26] <coz_> mikubuntu,    ok so far?
[16:26] <abhinav_singh1> please borther help me AbhiJit
[16:26] <mikubuntu> coz_: k, now it says ~/celtx$ after a command prompt
[16:26] <funkiwan> undecim: rockin. going to try it now...
[16:26] <coz_> mikubuntu, right now in that terminal type      ./celtx
[16:26] <AbhiJit> abhinav_singh1, i only know that gprename does the thing you want. dunno how to use it!!!
[16:26] <abhinav_singh1> Ok Abhijit
[16:27] <nbubuntu> undecim: Can you help me to try firegestures ?
[16:27] <syli725> Oer: thanks. :) I just tried maverick beta livecd. When I click "Install Driver" for nvidia, the deb file is not found. the filename is incorrect. then I downloaded the deb file with firefox and install it manually. But when I try to enable it in gnome-control-center, ubuntu is still trying to download it again. Why? I have already installed it.
[16:27] <nbubuntu> undecim: whether it's my computer problem or firefox problem
[16:27] <undecim> nbubuntu: You want a .mozilla folder with firegestures installed?
[16:27] <[KS]> what's the easiest way to add 10 seconds (move clock 10 seconds ahead) to current time in ubuntu (in bash)
[16:27] <coz_> mikubuntu,   did the application open ?
[16:28] <nbubuntu> undecim: I install firegestures and mouse freeze happen
[16:28] <AbhiJit> /
[16:28] <AbhiJit> /
[16:28] <mikubuntu> coz_: k, that launches celtx, but is that the only way to launch it?
[16:28] <iceroot> [KS]: date
[16:28] <nbubuntu> undecim: I'd like to know whether the freeze is from firefox or ubuntu xorg
[16:28] <undecim> nbubuntu: So are the freezes only happening when firefox is running?
[16:28] <coz_> mikubuntu,   well there is a link I gave for actuall installation hold on let me try to find that again
[16:28] <Oer> syli725, nivia driver in a live session ?
[16:28] <nbubuntu> undecim: nope , even I click on desktop it will get freeze too
[16:28] <[KS]> iceroot: yeah but I need to use it once to see current date time, then add 10 seconds
[16:28] <nbubuntu> undecim: both actuallly
[16:28]  * Oer is not sure that could be done
[16:28] <syli725> Oer: yeah. just trying composite works or not.
[16:29] <undecim> nbubuntu: If firefox is not running at all, then it can't possibly be firefox causing the problem.
[16:29] <[KS]> but while I type the command to add 10 seconds some time passes so I do not know how much to add
[16:29] <[KS]> :)
[16:29] <iceroot> [KS]: date -s +10 seconds or something like that (see man date)
[16:29] <undecim> nbubuntu: Did you run "dmesg" like I said?
[16:29] <avogadro> Can I update to 10.10 even if I'm running a newer kernel than the beta ?
[16:29] <coz_> mikubuntu,   ok go here    http://wiki.celtx.com/index.php?title=Installation#For_Linux  and follow those directions for actual install
[16:30] <mikubuntu> coz_: i have that link here, i don't mind it like this as long as i know what i'm doing -- do i always have to do a two part launch?  like cd celtx and then the ./celtx ?
[16:30] <syli725> Oer: ok. ignore my question. maybe I should install ubuntu to my harddisk first.
[16:30] <iceroot> avogadro: yes
[16:30] <coz_> mikubuntu,   if you dont install it then yes you have to do that  or create a luncher
[16:30] <AbhiJit> avogadro, ask in #ubuntu+
[16:30] <AbhiJit> :(
[16:30] <AbhiJit> avogadro, ask in #ubuntu+1
[16:30] <coz_> mikubuntu,  but I have to break here   so someone will have to pick this up from this point
[16:31] <mikubuntu> coz, thanks

[16:31] <hwilde> help, how to diagnose intermittent kernel panic on boot?   why would it fail sometimes and succeed others?
[16:31] <gigo_> hi folks, how can i downgrade my ubuntu10.04 from php 5.3.x to 5.2.x
[16:31] <nbubuntu> undecim: ok doing now brb
[16:31] <ppq> !blacklist > glen_
[16:31] <undecim> hwilde: device settling? What message do you get from the kernel panic?
[16:32] <[KS]> iceroot: thank you
[16:34] <undecim> hwilde: Try adding "rootwait" to your kernel line and see if that fixes it
[16:34] <hwilde> undecim, that will wait for stuff to settle?
[16:34] <undecim> hwilde: It will make it wait indefinitely for the root device to appear
[16:34] <dpac> Whitorr: It didn't work. Neither did mount -t ntfs-3g seemed to work
[16:35] <guest_> hwilde possible causes might include "race condition on mounting the rootfs" "corrupt initramfs image" and amoung others "hardware begining to fail (disk drive)" you need to note the line just above the kernel panic    or actually the last few lines.
[16:35] <P_Kable> Hi I have issues on my eth0, seems like I need to turn off autoneg, I tried ethtool eth0 -s speed 1000 duplex full autoneg off but it says not setting speed

[16:36] <artgoeshere> I need to install java (not for development, just for end-user stuff). Should I use the Synaptic Package Manager? Or DL it from java's site?
[16:36] <P_Kable> art ubuntu-restricted-extra
[16:36] <undecim> artgoeshere: You need to enable the partner repos and then you can install it with Synaptic
[16:36] <guest_> artgoeshere package manager

[16:37] <YellowTree> Hi, do anybody have some time fixing up in my server? Its so fucked up now hehe. And setting up apache + mysql ?
[16:37] <guest_> incidence you can correct the statoverride file (in /var/lib/*) or add the user, either will work.

[16:38] <Pici> YellowTree: Please mind your language here.
[16:38] <spofer> Hi all, I need help with a kernel panic (a complete linux newbie here) - I'm not sure where can I start
[16:38] <YellowTree> Pici, sorry
[16:38] <Whitorr> dpac, its easily possible... especially if oyu have used a repartitioning software... Lets say you started with one Windows partition and then installed Ubuntu  and had the installer repartition your drive for you... you would end up with one smaller windows partition as a primary, then you would have an extended partition, inside which you would have at least two logical partitions assigned to Linux root \ and one for Swap. Thats 4 parti
[16:38] <Whitorr> tions right there... However, yours are marked weird ... SpeedStore?? whats this? and QNX...
[16:38] <Whitorr> dpac, sorry, was away for a few
[16:38] <artgoeshere> undecim: I'm in the Other Software, but I don't see anything like "partner repos".  Do I have to manually add it?
[16:39] <artgoeshere> unsupported updates maybe?
[16:39] <undecim> artgoeshere: No, it should be there... maybe it's different now with 10.04...
[16:39] <spofer> Hi all, I need help with a kernel panic (a complete linux newbie here) - I'm not sure where can I start. The problem started after I hibernated 10.04
[16:39] <YellowTree> Hi, do anybody have some time fixing up in my server? Its so working proper now :/. And setting up apache + mysql ?
[16:39] <artgoeshere> undecim: looks like it might be...
[16:39] <jrib> YellowTree: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line)
[16:40] <dpac> Whitorr: I know extended and primary :). /dev/sda1 had /dev/sda1p1,/dev/sda1p2,/dev/sda1p3,/dev/sda1p4 as child partitions. What is that about?
[16:40] <undecim> artgoeshere: Not sure... see if the java packages show up in Synaptic
[16:40] <tobylane> is it easy within the graphical installer to make logical paritions? can two linux OSs share a swap?
[16:40] <jrib> tobylane: yes
[16:40] <incidence> guest_: Thanks, that worked out
[16:40] <tobylane> to which
[16:40] <jrib> tobylane: both
[16:40] <spofer> How do i debug Kernel Panic problems? How can i tell what caused the panic
[16:40] <spofer> ?
[16:40] <edakiri> artgoeshere: Recommend not using sun JRE but rather openjdk and icedtea-plugin.  they usually work better
[16:40] <YellowTree> I have apache2 installed. How to remove it all, and reinstall it with.
[16:40] <guest_> incidence welcome
[16:40] <tobylane> ty
[16:41] <YellowTree> + with new apache2 and mysql
[16:41] <jrib> YellowTree: why?
[16:41] <undecim> tobylane: Yes, and yes
[16:41] <guest_> spofer possible causes might include "race condition on mounting the rootfs" "corrupt initramfs image" and amoung others "hardware begining to fail (disk drive)" you need to note the line just above the kernel panic    or actually the last few lines.
[16:41] <tobylane> ty
[16:41] <DrPoO> any jetty veterans here?
[16:41] <undecim> spofer: There should be a few lines before the kernel panic that describe an error.
[16:41] <Whitorr> dpac, I've only seen that when people have used a third party partitioning software... Some external drives come with their own partitioning software preinstalled...  Personaly I think that software is bad news, but it may help some people out
[16:41] <YellowTree> jrib, do u know hot to change the password and user for apache and mysql ?
[16:41] <YellowTree> how*
[16:42] <jrib> YellowTree: again, why?
[16:42] <spofer> Can i check the last few lines on dmesg?
[16:42] <YellowTree> because, its sensitive. Too many people know it
[16:42] <guest_> spofer no.   when it panics
[16:42] <jrib> YellowTree: what password do people know?
[16:42] <spofer> Ok, restarting
[16:42] <YellowTree> The mysql password / user
[16:42] <dpac> Whitorr: I used gparted to partition. Anyways, the solution you said didn't work. Do you know of any other way?

[16:43] <timDJ> tried the above xmset
[16:43] <jrib> YellowTree: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MysqlPasswordReset obviously don't do the extra steps to bypass authentication if you know the existing password
[16:43] <obscene> Hey guys -- I was wondering if anyone knew what i need to install to get flash working on Epiphany browser, I see flash for firefox but i want to make sure I install the right thing.
[16:44] <jrib> obscene: that should work (did in the past)
[16:44] <spofer> Ok thanks for your help guys. I restarted, and the last couple of lines are a trace (I think). after the trace ends there are mounting errors
[16:44] <obscene> jrib: Okay, i will give that a try and report back, thanks :)
[16:44] <YellowTree> ty
[16:44] <spofer> then I get the Initramfs console
[16:46] <spofer> The last line is "No init found. Try Passing init= bootarg."

[16:46] <nbubuntu> undecim: http://pastebin.com/DfDz6rHg
[16:47] <Whitorr> dpac, I use software I purchased called Active file recovery vs 7.3 to retrieve data off orphaned partitions ... It can comb an HD for raw data signatures and recognize file-types.  It generally does a pretty good job if you catch an HD recently after a partition fraggle
[16:47] <undecim> nbubuntu: And this was done while the mouse was frozen?
[16:47] <Whitorr> fraggle is a technical term
[16:47] <dpac> Whitorr: Thanks, I'll try that :)
[16:48] <nbubuntu> undecim: yes
[16:48] <Whitorr> dpac, dpac thats not a linux solution ... thats a windows solution
[16:48] <nbubuntu> undecim: my mouse unable to click anything at all
[16:48] <Whitorr> I don't know of equivilent software for linux
[16:48] <Whitorr> but wold love one if it existed
[16:49] <IdleOne> !recover
[16:49] <undecim> nbubuntu: I see nothing unusual here... Could it be that the mouse is broken? Have you tried another mouse since the freezes started?
[16:49] <obscene> No, Just upgraded to fulltime ubuntu user from windows, So far i'm happy :)
[16:49] <nbubuntu> undecim: so I haveto use the keyboard to manual to terminal and output it
[16:49] <nbubuntu> undecim: it's not my mouse , after I did a x server restart ctrl+alt backspace it works well
[16:50] <spofer> guest_, The last few lines are a trace, I can't see beyond the current screen limit. the last line is "Target filesystem doesn't have /sbin/init., No init found. Try passing init= bootarg"
[16:50] <dpac> Whitorr: Photorec does a pretty good job, I've heard.
[16:50] <nbubuntu> undecim: I am using hardy 8.04 at other partition and it works well
[16:50] <Whitorr> dpac, for photos yes
[16:50] <undecim> nbubuntu: Well, with your mouse frozen again, can you paste the contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log to pastebin?
[16:50] <dpac> Whitorr: It does work for many other filetypes too.
[16:51] <Whitorr> Oh. its been a loong time since I've tried it
[16:51] <Whitorr> nice
[16:51] <pw-toxic_> hi, im currently installing ebox (zentyal), via console and im getting asked about configuring ldap-auth-config  .. he wants the LDAP server Uniform Resource Identifier.... what is this and where do i get it?
[16:51] <pw-toxic_> i cant find anything about this on the ubuntu wiki of ebox
[16:53] <ReadPlease> how do I check for packages in cli?  I tried using apt -q and got an 'apt not installed' error.
[16:53] <|kellan|> I am running Ubuntu Server 64bit on a quad core server with 8gb of ram. The network services I am currently providing are DHCP, DNS, and Samba for a small company 25 employees. Curently only 3 employess are using the new samba domain, but everyone is using DHCP and DNS. I restarted the server yesterday afternoon. When I login today via ssh it says I am at 21% memory usage. Should I be conserned about this since I am have only three samba users at this poi
[16:53] <|kellan|> nt. It seems like 21% is quite high. What is an acceptable level of memory usage reported when I login?
[16:53] <Agent001> .007
[16:53] <edakiri> ReadPlease: if  /usr/bin/apt  is not present, you are in trouble.  You can still install with dpkg and list installed packages.  dpkg -l
[16:54] <ppq> ReadPlease, i use 'aptitude show nvidia-glx-' and then press [TAB] to auto complete it
[16:54] <undecim> |kellan|: Linux uses some RAM for caching commonly read files from the hard drive
[16:54] <undecim> |kellan|: I wouldn't worry about it.
[16:54] <Agent001> Would anyone install ubuntu on a brand new sony viao eb edition laptop?
[16:54] <undecim> |kellan|: You can check "free -m" for more detail on your memory usage
[16:54] <ReadPlease> Is there a way to truncate, ppq?  For example, list all packages beginning with postgre?
[16:54] <ppq> edakiri, /usr/bin/apt doesn't exist in ubuntu
[16:55] <edakiri> ppq: funny, it exists in my ubuntu.
[16:55] <|kellan|> undecim: Thank you
[16:55] <ppq> ReadPlease, sure, just press TAB like i said
[16:55] <ppq> edakiri, which version
[16:55] <ReadPlease> Didn't work. X>
[16:55] <undecim> |kellan|: For example, I'm using 1.3GB of ram, but about half of that is cache/buffers
[16:55] <ReadPlease> OH!  I didn't press it hard enough
[16:55] <ppq> ReadPlease, sometimes you have to press it twice
[16:55] <edakiri> ppq: Lucid Lynx.  but I see now, it is a link to /etc/alternatives/apt
[16:56] <palicia> I have a problem with ubuntu - upgraded from 10.04 to pre-release 10.10
[16:56] <ReadPlease> That's not showing the ones on my computer, though, right?
[16:56] <ppq> edakiri, interesting
[16:56] <edakiri> ppq: which is a link to /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/bin/apt
[16:56] <nbubuntu> undecim : here is my pastebin http://pastebin.com/ggFRMFSq
[16:56] <ReadPlease> It's showing the ones that are available?
[16:56] <ppq> ReadPlease, no, it shows everything available
[16:56] <ReadPlease> Ah.  Is there a way to check for what I have installed that begins with postgre?
[16:57] <ppq> ReadPlease, to show only what youva already got, try 'aptitude remove postgre' [TAB]
[16:57] <palicia> get the message Modprobe fatal could not load /lib/modules/[kernal generic]/modules.dep no such file or directory
[16:57] <|kellan|> undecim, thank you so much. After checking my memory it is all cache mostly. only using a 500mb so I feel much better now
[16:57] <undecim> nbubuntu: And this again is while the mouse is frozen?
[16:57] <nbubuntu> undecim : btw  ,I just try again with another usb mouse , still the same
[16:57] <undecim> |kellan|: and just think. You still have all that RAM left for file caching
[16:58] <ReadPlease> Last Q..., how do I check what's running for postgre*?
[16:58] <nbubuntu> undecim : yep , this pastebin mouse freeze is when I test with other USB mouse
[16:58] <undecim> nbubuntu: Well, I have no idea then
[16:58] <ppq> ReadPlease, 'ps -eF | grep -i postgre'
[16:58] <ReadPlease> I'm just asking as a compliment.  I think I can google that one.
[16:58] <kafrisky> has any body ever used ndiswrapper?
[16:58] <undecim> nbubuntu: AFAICT, the mouse just stops reporting its position... thought we know it's not the mouse or port, since it works with 8.04...
[16:58] <nbubuntu> undecim : I had been having this issue on the first day when 10.04 launch , though of a fresh install still it doesn't fix it
[16:58] <ppq> ReadPlease, or do you mean the version

[16:59] <palicia> any help appreciated

[16:59] <undecim> nbubuntu: More people get a chance to read it, and maybe someone else knows about this issue.
[16:59] <ppq> ReadPlease, then the full output of 'ps -eF' is interesting for you or even 'pstree'

[17:05] <DrPoO> what does it mean when I get the following message when i try to install a package using apt-get: "This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source"? The package is there (libjetty6-java) but i cant install it.... :S
[17:05] <ppq> DrPoO, some other package is relating to this but it actually doesn't exist (anymore)
[17:05] <dpac> Whitorr: Just to inform you, testdisk worked wonders. It fixed the drive!
[17:05] <mantizz> Plugged in Headset front panel (Back side Speakers connected) not working in Ubuntu 10.04 64bit gnome, only mic working properly unable to hear any sound, using it with Skype...
[17:05] <Daniel0108> hi
[17:05] <th_> im using standard ubuntu with 2 screens. is it possible to use different wallpapers?
[17:05] <dpac> Whitorr: Sorry, partition*
[17:05] <undecim> nbubuntu: I think you should install the driver. Most people are kind of afraid to, because the drivers have been a nightmare in the past, but they've gotten a lot better now.
[17:05] <ppq> DrPoO, it only exists in karmic (ubuntu 9.10)
[17:06] <DrPoO> ppq, does that render the package uninstallable? or can i download it and do it myself?
[17:06] <undecim> nbubuntu: Just go to System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers
[17:06] <Whitorr> dpac, good to hear
[17:06] <soreau> nbubuntu: I can tell you how to upgrade the kernel with ppa and userspace with xorg-edgers ppa
[17:06] <soreau> nbubuntu: but you left too soon
[17:06] <pw-toxic_> im still having problem setting up ebox ;/
[17:06] <|kellan|> undecim, Sounds like we are on the same page. I have a dedicated backup server running bacula as well. Just bought a new 16 slot LTO4 tape loader.
[17:06] <ppq> DrPoO, well, you could download the karmic version and install it in lucid. but in most cases this is very bad
[17:07] <ppq> DrPoO, if you decide to do so, be sure to match the dependencies
[17:07] <dpac> Whitorr: Thanks for all the help.
[17:07] <vjr> hi
[17:07] <th_> im using standard ubuntu with 2 screens. is it possible to use different wallpapers?
[17:07] <karlo> what irc client do you recomended ? (I use Xchat)
[17:07] <|kellan|> undecim, If I have not said so already. Thank you for your quick response btw
[17:07] <pw-toxic_> th_ on kde this works ;)
[17:07] <nbubuntu> soreau : because I have to restart my pc since my mouse get freeze too
[17:07] <nbubuntu> soreau : sorry about that
[17:07] <AbhiJit> karlo, xcaht
[17:07] <ppq> DrPoO, i think in this case it should be okay. but there's a reason the package does not longer exist in lucid. first, try to find out what reason this is
[17:07] <th_> pw-toxic_, yes but how about gnome? :P
[17:08] <pw-toxic_> th_ dunno.. tried it myself and i failed ;)
[17:08] <th_> pw-toxic_, :(
[17:08] <undecim> |kellan|: No problem XD
[17:08] <sandstorm|mobile> what is lucid?
[17:08] <DrPoO> ppq, ok i will take a look at it... have u installed jetty on 10.04?
[17:08] <th_> pw-toxic_, btw you have 2 screens?
[17:08] <ppq> DrPoO, no
[17:09] <undecim> sandstorm|mobile: Ubuntu 10.04 is nicknamed 'Lucid Lynx'
[17:09] <pw-toxic_> th_ i have 5 screens  here to be honest ;)
[17:09] <noobster987> just a question: there are two indicators, "messages" and "sessions" on top right. how respectively where are they configured please?
[17:09] <ppq> DrPoO, you can also check if there's a ppa or so for lucid.
[17:09] <undecim> sandstorm|mobile: most people just refer to it by the first word of the nickname.
[17:09] <th_> pw-toxic_, ok... hows youtube? can you go fullscreen?
[17:09] <sandstorm|mobile> thanks alot
[17:09] <ppq> DrPoO, preferrably a ppa by the jetty devs
[17:09] <nbubuntu> soreau : can you please teoo me how to install them ?
[17:09] <pw-toxic_> th_ im not using ubuntu for desktop atm.. i only use it for my erver ;(
[17:10] <th_> pw-toxic_, so whats your desktop?
[17:10] <soreau> nbubuntu: see #compiz
[17:10] <nbubuntu> soreau : ok

[17:12] <tobylane> how do i update? something to do with -d, or a graphical way?

[17:22] <Aqaz> Dr_Willis: Thanks for reminding ..forgot abt it

[17:26] <tcarvalho> hi there
[17:26] <tcarvalho> need some help please
[17:26] <ppq> techbreak, do you have 10.04
[17:26] <techbreak> ppq, ya
[17:26] <Guest90035> hi
[17:26] <tcarvalho> ununto starts
[17:26] <ppq> techbreak, and universe repo activated
[17:27] <AbhiJit> tcarvalho, ask
[17:27] <tcarvalho> mouse works for seconds than just stops working
[17:27] <techbreak> ppq, i dont know, if no how to activate?
[17:27] <ppq> techbreak, see /etc/apt/sources.list
[17:27] <lebear> okay, my system is broken down. what i need to do is to re-mount the drives, but i need a terminal for that and I cannot access the LiveCD for some reason. is there any .iso i can download that includes only what's necessary for getting a minimal system and terminal running?
[17:27] <techbreak> ppq, just a min
[17:27] <Dr_Willis> techbreak:   try a sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade, then sudo apt-get install gnochm      It may be needing some updates
[17:27] <arrrghhh> hey all, is there any way to trick X.org into thinking there's a monitor plugged in?  i would thing there's a way to do it with the xorg.conf
[17:27] <th_> what is the best way to add a program to start at boot?
[17:27] <ppq> techbreak, there should be some lines like this: deb http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lucid main restricted universe multiverse
[17:28] <Dr_Willis> arrrghhh:  why do you need tod o that?
[17:28] <ppq> techbreak, it's important that there's the word universe in it
[17:28] <Dr_Willis> th_:  depends on the program and what its doing.
[17:28] <Aqaz> Dr_Willis: Thats fine. I would like to have documentation of system commandas
[17:28] <techbreak> ppq, checking wait
[17:28] <AbhiJit> !pm | tcarvalho yes 1284 users in this cahnnel may help you just follow this
[17:28] <arrrghhh> Dr_Willis, well, i'm trying to help some peoples on the forums... basically they have a HTPC setup and when the screen on the PC, X.org fails to start basically.
[17:28] <th_> Dr_Willis, how come? have been using bashrc
[17:29] <Dr_Willis> th_:  how come it depends on the program.. because you start services and service like things one way..  and other tools other ways.
[17:29] <techbreak> ppq, universe stuff is not there
[17:29] <arrrghhh> Dr_Willis, sorry that doesn't make sense.  if the tv input isn't set to the HTPC, x.org fails to start as i understand it.
[17:29] <Dr_Willis> th_:  bashrc would be for bash init type commands and alias;s
[17:29] <techbreak> ppq, so shall i do 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get upgrade' ??
[17:30] <Dr_Willis> arrrghhh:  that is odd..  Ive never had that happen on my pc's. but wait.. is the TV a HD/tv using DVI or are you refering to using SVIDEO?
[17:30] <ppq> techbreak, read through the whole file. open it with 'sudo nano'. there are some lines beginning with # that contain the word universe. remove the word universe, save the file, sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get install gnochm
[17:30] <th_> Dr_Willis, i can add things like "guake" to bashrc..?
[17:30] <arrrghhh> Dr_Willis, none, i believe it's HDMI
[17:30] <ppq> techbreak, err, remove the #, sry
[17:30] <Dr_Willis> th_:  that would not be the proper place to start guake.
[17:30] <arrrghhh> Dr_Willis, i swear i've seen some people mention the issue with standard vga as well.
[17:30] <tcarvalho> Problem: Ubunto starts, ask for log in; mouse works fine for 2 ou 3 seconds/clicks and then just stops working, may anyone help?
[17:30] <AbhiJit> tcarvalho, btw by the word 'ask' i mean ask your question here with all the details in one line addressed to the channel
[17:30] <Dr_Willis> arrrghhh:  so its basically a 'monitor' :) that happens to be a tv also...
[17:30] <undecim> Is there any way to ensure that the first (or better yet, all, if they're contiguous) block of a file keeps the same physical location on the disk?
[17:30] <techbreak> ppq, ok
[17:30] <th_> Dr_Willis, thats my Q. how come it is not?
[17:31] <arrrghhh> Dr_Willis, sure :D
[17:31] <Dr_Willis> arrrghhh:  ive never noticed the issue.
[17:31] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: ok so here is a real good question for someone, i have "hirens boot cd" on a thumb drive which was already loaded with some kind of grub installer, how could i use that with ubuntu (uausb drive is fat32)
[17:31] <Dr_Willis> th_:   think about it.. what if you login at the console.. it runs bashrc and tries to run a X application....
[17:31] <Dr_Willis> th_:  kde and gnome both have methods to 'autostart' x applications
[17:31] <Dr_Willis> !autostart
[17:31] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, what is 'hirens'?
[17:31] <arrrghhh> Dr_Willis, i don't hook up a monitor to my server, so i don't either... just hopin to help some people... i found some xorg.conf tricks, but they don't seem to work completely.  i would assume you could use xorg.conf to force x11 into thinking there's a monitor there with a particular resolution... no?
[17:32] <xbonesx> one sec i get you a link
[17:32] <th_> Dr_Willis, well i get errors? how come that is bad? and there is .config/autostart or something. should i use that instead?
[17:32] <st__> AbhiJit, a pirated windows live cd
[17:32] <th_> Dr_Willis, *i know
[17:32] <Dr_Willis> th_:  try it and see.. you will get a warning/error...
[17:32] <AbhiJit> st__, windows????????? :O :O :O
[17:32] <AbhiJit> what is this?
[17:32] <Disty> anybody any idea how to get rid of the annoying "has left" and "has joined" messages on irrsi
[17:32] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, why are you asking me about winggddows ?
[17:32] <Dr_Willis> !irssi
[17:32] <tcarvalho> Channel: Ubunto starts, ask for log in; mouse works fine for 2 ou 3 seconds/clicks and then just stops working, may anyone help?
[17:33] <AbhiJit> omg
[17:33] <th_> Dr_Willis, well what is preffered method? in linux there are too many choises :(
[17:33] <AbhiJit> he literaly took that 'addressed to the channel!!!' :D :D :D
[17:33] <Disty> !screen
[17:33] <undecim> tcarvalho: Do you have an ATI video card?
[17:33] <tcarvalho> nop
[17:33] <tcarvalho> nvidia
[17:33] <Dr_Willis> th_:  its nothing to do with linux.. GNOM<E and KDE both have a auto start feature for GUI apps.. thats not related to the .bashrc at all.
[17:33] <codizzle3280> I have been running ubuntu lucid for awhile now and a few days ago added the kde environment. I walked away from the computer earlier to comeback to a frozen screen. So... I did a hard reboot and bios is fine and then I get a blank screen for about 10 seconds, a few things flash very fast( cannot reAd ) and the monitor turns off. I did reboot like a billion times and once was able to get a kubuntu screen that says somehing along th
[17:33] <Dr_Willis> th_:  bashrc is for bash initilization commands and so forth.
[17:33] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: http://www.hirensbootcd.net/usb-booting.html
[17:34] <Aqaz> Dr_Willis: ??
[17:34] <undecim> tcarvalho: Okay... I was helping someone else with this issue earlier and we couldn't get anywhere....
[17:34] <obscene> Will i notice a difference in speed/performance if i switch from gnome to xfce?
[17:34] <tcarvalho> undecim: so ... i can do nothin than format ubunto and return to windows?
[17:34] <Dr_Willis> obscene:  perhaps a little. it depends on yoru system and setup
[17:35] <undecim> tcarvalho: Well, someone had suggested adding the xorg-edgers repository
[17:35] <th_> Dr_Willis, it kinda is because there are more ways to do a thing. because bashrc definately does the job. so what is the correct way to start ie guake
[17:35] <undecim> tcarvalho: I don't know how that worked out though.
[17:35] <etheretic> codizzle3280: tried a recovery boot, and run "try to fix X server"?
[17:35] <obscene> Dr_Willis: I have a amd 64 3000+ processor @ 1.8ghz and 1 gig of ram, 250 Meg card.. but i find gnome to be running very slow for me
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> th_:  its a GUI program.. so you use the gnome/kde method... thats what its designed for.
[17:35] <adalal> my pulseaudio always starts with 2 channel whenever i put in my usb sound card, even though i changed the default to 6 under the daemon.conf (?)... any reason?
[17:35] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, i dunno anything about winggddoowwsss dont ask me about it
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> th_:  yiour way.. EVERY time you start a terminal. it starts up another guake.. thats just pointless
[17:35] <Aqaz> Dr_Willis: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal ... It gives basic commands, but not system commands or other useful commands like initramfs
[17:35]  * Aqaz thinking
[17:35] <arrrghhh> obscene, those are kinda low specs... have you tried any other window managers other than GNOME?
[17:36] <tcarvalho> undecim: well i dont realy understand those words like xorg-edgers... i just want this working xD
[17:36] <th_> Dr_Willis, hmm what is the gnome way?
[17:36] <codizzle3280> How is that done?
[17:36] <obscene> arrrghh: no, what do you reccomend?
[17:36] <Dr_Willis> !autostart | th_
[17:36] <st__> arrrghhh, actually it's decent specs
[17:36] <Dr_Willis> th_:  the auto start dir.. or 'session management' feature of gnome
[17:36] <undecim> tcarvalho: You should be able to get to a terminal using the keyboard... Press ctrl+f1 and use arrow keys to navigate to Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
[17:36] <arrrghhh> st__, for 2004...
[17:36] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: what are you talking about "hirens boot cd" is a utility that runs a small linux distro if you choose to and it has a crap load of utilities
[17:36] <undecim> tcarvalho: Sorry, that should have been Alt+F1
[17:37] <th_> ubottu, thx
[17:37] <tcarvalho> trying
[17:37] <Aqaz> Dr_Willis: Can you help me on that?
[17:37] <ppq> obscene, you can try to deactivate the special windows effects
[17:37] <th_> Dr_Willis, i dont want to learn graphical ways
[17:37] <st__> gnome hadn't progressed much since 2004 to became more bloated than vista
[17:37] <ppq> obscene, maybe that does it for you
[17:37] <arrrghhh> obscene, well kde is kinda heavy, and xfce is any more as well... there's a bunch tho depending on how 'barebones' you want to go...
[17:37] <Dr_Willis> Aqaz:  all i can say is use google to search for docs ont eh stuff you are interested in.. theres no 'all inclusive' doc  for everything.
[17:37] <undecim> tcarvalho: When you get there, type "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa" and press enter
[17:37] <ajay> hi all, i have ubuntu 10.04 nut in this my serial port is not working  4348:3253
[17:37] <Silex> hi, is tehre an apache2 help channel?
[17:37] <etheretic> codizzle3280: reboot, hold down shift, choose "recovery mode, and wait until the menu appears.
[17:37] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, ok. so what is your actual question.

[17:38] <wpecker> ~~~ Hi, can anyone help me capture sound output from pulseaudio or alsa?
[17:38] <obscene> ppq: Im running in 'normal' mode now --- sysmonitor says my cpu is @ 90% usage, idk how, im only running terminal, skyle, and a browser lol
[17:38] <undecim> tcarvalho: And the do the same for "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade"
[17:38] <st__> i would unadvise xfce as it's almost much clunky as a gnome, but lacks some basic functions a DE need
[17:38] <Dr_Willis> Aqaz:  the same applies to just about any topic you would want to learn about really....
[17:38] <ajay> how to check serial port is detected in ubuntu 10.04?
[17:38] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: hold on let me get back to you
[17:38] <turtle_> st__, i dont find gnome clunky
[17:38]  * AbhiJit hides
[17:38] <Dr_Willis> Aqaz:  theres dozens of books written about bash.. and doezn more books written on system admin stuff
[17:38] <illytaco> hey folks, quick question how can I configure and mount a hard drive. i see it in the list of drives but it is not configured or mountable. I'm using ubuntu 10.04
[17:38] <Aqaz> Dr_Willis: Yep.. agreed that commands as i said initramfs should have documentation
[17:38] <etheretic> codizzle3280: by doing it.
[17:39] <codizzle3280> etheretic: ok will try.what shall i do from that point?
[17:39] <ajay> i am getting lspci -v as 	Kernel driver in use: serial
[17:39] <adalal> my pulseaudio always starts with 2 channel whenever i put in my usb sound card, even though i changed the default to 6 under the daemon.conf (?)... any reason? .. i always have to restart pulseaudio to detect the soundcard as a 6 channel one..... any reasons?
[17:39] <th_> what happens if i remove /etc/init.d/bluetooth?
[17:39] <Aqaz> Dr_Willis: kk.. then could you suggest one//
[17:39] <ajay> but still not able to communicate over serial port
[17:39]  * wpecker ~~~ Hi, can anyone help me capture sound output from pulseaudio or alsa?
[17:39] <obengdako> Wpewpecker in ahead
[17:39] <etheretic> codizzle3280: see if it works?
[17:39] <ppq> obscene, let the monitor sort the processes by cpu load and then look what's that consuming so much cpu time
[17:39] <obengdako> go ahead
[17:39] <Aqaz> th_ probably will reset the settings
[17:40] <st__> turtle_, it's an equivalent of Windows 98 desktop, except the latter was usable on 32 MB RAM
[17:40] <codizzle3280> etheretic: ok. brb
[17:40] <VCoolio> illytaco: not configured? you mean no file system? what does it say on 'sudo fdisk -l' ?
[17:40] <th_> Aqaz, i want to remove that service :(
[17:40] <Silex> trying to do a RewriteRule with the [R] flag (redirect) and it needs the full http:// url, and I can't find how to tell the remplacement regex to contain the server host and port if needed
[17:40] <obengdako> Wpecker go ahead
[17:40] <wpecker> sorry?
[17:40] <Silex> basically I want %{REQUEST_URI} but for the full path
[17:40] <Guest73480> anyone can assist. My sound card is not being detected. I'm using hp dv6 700 with ubuntu karmic.
[17:40] <Aqaz> th_ Why?
[17:40] <jrib> Silex: #httpd
[17:41] <th_> Aqaz, lightness?
[17:41] <Silex> jrib: thanks
[17:41] <illytaco> VCoolio: it doesn't list anything using sudo fdisk -l
[17:41] <obscene> wow epiphany browser is using 70% of CPU usage, is that normal? lol
[17:41] <openvpn2009> that is not normal at all.
[17:41] <Aqaz> th_ I mean for what exactly, to have a lighter faster system?
[17:41] <st__> obscene, no
[17:41] <obscene> hrm...
[17:41] <wpecker> How can I capture sound output from pulseaudio or alsa? Is there an easy way for this?
[17:41] <openvpn2009> running flash or some other plugin inside the browser?
[17:41] <obscene> yes, stickam.
[17:41] <th_> Aqaz, yes..
[17:41] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: hahaha i make it all the way down to the bottom of the link you gave me and there is the instruction for the grub4dos setup hahaha
[17:41] <Aqaz> th_ In any how is that affecting yours if that the case
[17:42] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, ok
[17:42] <VCoolio> illytaco: so in what list of drives do you see it in? (it's fdisk -l as in small L, not 1)
[17:42] <ppq> obscene, i use chromium on my 1,7ghz celeron-m
[17:42] <Guest73480> aplay: device_list:235: no soundcards found...
[17:42] <Guest73480> what's causing this?
[17:42] <th_> Aqaz, pardon me?
[17:42] <ppq> obscene, it's very fast
[17:42] <ppq> obscene, and doesn't use that much cpu time
[17:42] <obscene> ppq -- It seems its only when i view flash -- If i have epiphany running a youtube video, its taking up 70% of cpu usage, is chromium a good alternative?
[17:43] <wpecker> ### How can I capture sound output from Pulseaudio or ALSA?
[17:43] <ppq> obscene, well, then it won't be a difference
[17:43] <st__> obscene, you'll need a videocard which supports hardware acceleration for chrome
[17:43] <Aqaz> th_ Well you can go for lxde else remove the package through synaptic
[17:43] <obscene> I have a Nvidia card, with 512MB of memory.
[17:43] <littleking> aplay: device_list:235: no soundcards found...
[17:43] <ppq> obscene, i'm not even able to view fullscreen flash things
[17:43] <littleking> can anyone help me with this
[17:43] <obengdako>   wpecker what capture program are you using?
[17:43] <th_> Aqaz, lxde?
[17:43] <etheretic> wpecker: maybe ubuntu studio is useful for that.
[17:44] <ppq> obscene, which one
[17:44] <illytaco> VCoolio: yes I understand we saw it graphically in System and I think it was hard disk that showed me all my drives and it inidcates I have a drive that is not partitioned
[17:44] <st__> don't forget if you choose lxde, you;ll have to use config files for everything, as lxde missing most control panels
[17:44] <wpecker> (obengdako): audacity or anything, nothing works anyway
[17:44] <Aqaz> !lxde
[17:44] <obscene> ppq: I'm not sure the exact model, how can i find that out
[17:44] <ppq> obscene, lspci
[17:44] <Aqaz> !info lxde
[17:44] <obscene> ppq: 1 sec
[17:44] <wpecker> (etheretic): checking it
[17:44] <littleking> aplay: device_list:235: no soundcards found...
[17:44] <codizzle3280> etheretic: it took me to a command line
[17:44] <obengdako> okay let's do this
[17:44] <andreas> Hello
[17:44] <VCoolio> illytaco: if there's no data yet on it, format it with gparted; gotta go though
[17:45] <ppq> obscene, but its not that important, its unlikely that the linux flash player supports gpu hardware acceleration
[17:45] <littleking> ubuntu is not detecting my sound card
[17:45] <illytaco> VCoolio: thank you!!
[17:45] <obengdako> open your sound preferences
[17:45] <etheretic> wpecker: you want to record from a mic/midi device?
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> littleking: is it onboard?
[17:45] <littleking> ActionParsnip: yes
[17:45] <obscene> ppq: Yeah flash works fine and is not glitchy at all -- its just a matter of the rest of the system running painfully slow during flash
[17:45] <wpecker> (etheretic): no, sound output from applications like firefox
[17:45] <th_> Aqaz, sry but i didnt get your point
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> ppq: nvidia ion gpus support flash accelleration very well :)
[17:45] <ppq> ActionParsnip, in ubuntu? nice
[17:45] <ActionParsnip> littleking: check in bios to ensure its enabled
[17:46] <etheretic> codizzle3280: strange. you have a plain gnome ubuntu install?
[17:46] <wpecker> (obengdako): ok, what I should do there?
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> ppq: indeed
[17:46] <ppq> ActionParsnip, didnt know that
[17:46] <ppq> thx
[17:46] <_Zappy__> Hello ! I'm having problems installing graphic drivers for my Radeon HD 5870. I tried the latest ATI Catalyst , but that one slows dow 2D redraw of my windows. I uninstalled the driver and tried the fglrx driver from the Ubuntu Software Center. Same problem ! I'm at a loss for solutions ... can anyone maybe help ?
[17:46] <Aqaz> th_ You may try to remove the package through synaptic.
[17:46] <leeb9972> anyone help me sync my blackberry curve with google calanders or other calander on ubuntu?
[17:46] <littleking> ActionParsnip: I will check the bios
[17:46] <ActionParsnip> ppq: ion is sweeet, fully going to get one when this POS falls over
[17:46] <Aqaz> th_ Forget about lxde now
[17:46] <th_> Aqaz, ok..
[17:46] <littleking> ActionParsnip: thanks
[17:46] <etheretic> wpecker: install download helper addon in firefox.
[17:46] <ppq> ActionParsnip, does the gtx 260 support this too?
[17:47] <ppq> (vdpau works)
[17:47] <codizzle3280> ehteretic:i guess? i started usinge the kde environment... i dont know much
[17:47] <wpecker> in windows it would be Stereo Mix, in ubuntu I can't find anything like that
[17:48] <ActionParsnip> ppq: dont think so but I'm not sure, as long as you have the latest flash plugin, if it is supported it willl happen automagically
[17:48] <AbhiJit> !pm > Aqaz just for future reference
[17:48] <wpecker> (etheretic): I don't see how it would help
[17:48] <etheretic> codizzle3280: don't know how to help you, then. I had both gnok
[17:48] <ppq> :]
[17:49] <ActionParsnip> leeb9972: http://linuxappfinder.com/blog/using_a_blackberry_curve_with_linux
[17:49] <codizzle3280> ethertetic: ok... well thanks for helping.
[17:49] <etheretic> codizzle3280: sorry - gnome and kde installed at once, which gave problems. solution: reinstall.
[17:49] <obengdako> Wpecker for gui try using pavucontrol it will allow you to select internal mix
[17:49] <wpecker> (obengdako): checking now
[17:49] <codizzle3280> etheretic: i figured... just wanted to avoid that.. lol
[17:49] <AbhiJit> !nick > Aqaz see this also
[17:50] <AbhiJit> !register > Aqaz
[17:50] <_Zappy__> Noone here with ATI RAdeon 5xxx cards ?
[17:50] <wpecker> (obengdako): in input devices tab I can only select mic 1, 2 and line-in, there's no internal mix in here?
[17:50]  * etheretic is pinin' for a "system restore" function in ubuntu.
[17:51] <obengdako> wpecker are you using pavucontrol?
[17:51] <wpecker> yes
[17:52] <wpecker> the third tab from left
[17:52] <wpecker> sorry fourth
[17:52] <_Zappy__> Oh well ... I'll try later then.
[17:52] <obengdako> there is a dropdown to choose all input channels
[17:52] <karlw> How do I get sound to work on an HP G-42 laptop in 64 bit?
[17:52] <obengdako> the stereo mix is a virtual device
[17:53] <st__> is rpm utility functional in Linux?
[17:53] <wpecker> (obengdako): it says Internal Audio Analog Stereo, and below there is a dropdown menu for Port:, in it there are only mic1-2 and line in, no internal mix
[17:53] <ppq> st__, you can use alien to convert it to .deb and install it
[17:54]  * Aqaz learnt something new today 
[17:54] <etheretic> st_ sudo apt-get install alien afaicr.
[17:54] <obengdako> Istall padevchooser then run pavucontrol then go to input then choose all input then set internal as fall back connection
[17:54] <ActionParsnip> !rpm | st__
[17:54] <karlw> I have a Radeon HD 4200 audio card.
[17:55] <mzenzes> hi folks. i'm struggling with dual-head support with an intel 945gm graphics card... i need and configuration where "fullscreen" means an application panned over both screen (for latex-beamer presentation)
[17:55] <wpecker> (obengdako): ok, looking into it now
[17:55] <st__> well most spell-checking dictionaries available on;y as rpm
[17:55] <mzenzes> but all i got was two screen "beside" where i can move windows between them, fullscreen only fills one screen
[17:55] <ActionParsnip> st__: there are dictionaries in software centre
[17:55] <ppq> karlw, thats actually your graphics card which has a hdmi output with digital audio
[17:55] <ActionParsnip> !dualhead | mzenzes
[17:56] <bmsatierf> Hi there! I created a brand new Amazon AMI, but I noticed that apt-get ins't installed by default. I tried to install it through yum (sudo yum install apt [apt-get as well]) but seems like there isn't any apt on the repository. Any idea how can I install apt-get there?
[17:56] <mzenzes> yesyes, did some searching and fiddling... my question is more general: is the behaviour im looking for supported?
[17:57] <ppq> bmsatierf, some years ago there was 4 apt4rpm project
[17:57] <wpecker> (obengdako): should I do something from padevchooser ?
[17:57] <ppq> -4
[17:57] <wpecker> it's installed and running now
[17:57] <obengdako> yes run it
[17:57] <bmsatierf> ppq: apt-4rpm?
[17:57] <wpecker> just run it?
[17:57] <obengdako> then go to your system tray
[17:57] <ppq> bmsatierf, but why do you ask in a ubuntu channel a fedora (?) question
[17:57] <wpecker> ok
[17:58] <wpecker> there's a menu
[17:58] <obengdako> then choose volume control
[17:58] <bmsatierf> ppa: because I thought that OS was ubuntu... I'll just create a new image
[17:58] <obengdako> then go toinput
[17:58] <peleg> In this bug page: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mplayer/+bug/556200 -- it is said that the bug is fixed and a fix is released. I have the newest version of mplayer in my 10.04, and Hebrew is still flipped (and fribidi is not supported). Any ideas?
[17:58] <ppq> bmsatierf, in ubuntu there is no yum :)
[17:59] <ppq> bmsatierf, when you dont know what distro youre using, type uname -a
[17:59] <bmsatierf> ppq: I noticed... Thank you, I'll just set up a new image.
[17:59] <Hellmark[S10e]> Is there a known issue causing tftpd-hpa to not log?
[17:59] <wpecker> (obengdako): yes, I'm in input
[17:59] <obengdako> then lower right corner has a drop down
[17:59] <bmsatierf> ppq: ;)
[17:59] <obengdako> choose all
[17:59] <Hellmark[S10e]> I am running into a problem where two file servers I am using is not logging.
[17:59] <wpecker> (obengdako): ok, did it
[18:00] <Culero_> Can any one help me? My nautilus stopped showing my other partitions (mixed ntfs and ext3) under the Places side pane; I was able to mount them manually without incident.
[18:00] <obengdako> then tell me the channels availiable
[18:00] <ppq> bmsatierf, no problem, good luck
[18:00] <Mike3620> If I compile a C# app in unbutnu using mono-xbuild would it work the same as a windows app ...
[18:00] <obengdako> how far
[18:00] <wpecker> (obengdako): mic1, mic2 and line-in
[18:00] <ActionParsnip> Culero_: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/mountwindows
[18:01] <Pholious> Anyone here ever had problems installing 10.4 from a USB stick? specifically not getting past the keyboard language selection?
[18:01] <wpecker> same basically
[18:01] <ActionParsnip> Culero_: if they ae internal partitions, add them in /etc/fstab to mount at boot
[18:01] <obengdako> don't you also see monitor
[18:01] <Mike3620> I compiles a C# app that accesses the internet, I want to make sure it will work ... using mono-xbuild
[18:01] <Culero_> ActionParsnip: Well, I already have my windows partition loaded up to mount on boot already, and it works. It's just the unmounted partitions that aren't displayed.
[18:01] <Dr_Willis> Mike3620:  try it and see.. thats the definitive answer.
[18:01] <st__> Mike3620, well it depends on mono queality...
[18:01] <wpecker> yes thereis my monitor also, but it has no dropdown menus
[18:02] <ActionParsnip> Culero_: then apply the same metod to those partitions too
[18:02] <Mike3620> oh ...
[18:02] <obengdako> so activate monitor as default
[18:02] <mzenzes> which multiscreen mode supports fullscreen of an application over both scereens? maybe mergefb, but not xinerama?
[18:03] <obengdako> do you see a recording tab
[18:03] <Culero_> ActionParsnip: Right, but I don't want them to automount. I liked the option of just clicking on the umounted partitions to mount them.
[18:03] <wpecker> (obengdako): one min. checking it now
[18:03] <Mike3620> I compiled the LOIC (low orbit ion cannot) to protest the DMCA, and I want to make sure it will work :-D
[18:04] <ActionParsnip> Culero_: i think you'll need the option 'noauto' in the fstab entry then (I think)
[18:04] <JoshyFox> Hello, cn anyone help me with some scripts that I want to start on bootup? I've tried adding them to the startup applications bit but to no avail ._.
[18:04] <JoshyFox> Sorry, not scripts, commands
[18:04] <Culero_> ActionParsnip: ah. I'll give that a shot. ty
[18:05] <wpecker> (obengdako): I can't get any sound from pulse now, suddenly only ALSA works now
[18:05] <peleg> If the lunchpad claims a fix is released, shouldn't I expect it to be in my repository?
[18:05] <Dr_Willis> JoshyFox:   on 'bootup' is different then  when 'user logs in'  so tell the channel what these scripts do
[18:05] <obengdako> open a terminal
[18:05] <Dr_Willis> peleg:  it may be in backports. perhaps.
[18:05] <wpecker> ok opened
[18:05] <JoshyFox> The scripts enable the multitouch capabilities of my touchpad, multifinger scrolling, etc
[18:06] <obengdako> then run alsamixer
[18:06] <andrewaclt> Hi, I'm having a subtle problem. Seemingly random my Ubuntu system hangs. The keyboard and mouse are responsive (I can change to a terminal with ctrl-alt-f1 for example). However, gnome doesn't seem to be doing anything. There are no weird processes listed with PS, top, and nothing shows up in any log in /var/log. Any ideas?
[18:06] <mirko_> salve
[18:06] <obengdako> press tab
[18:06] <obengdako>   you'll be in
[18:07] <wpecker> the monitor isn't here
[18:07] <JoshyFox> Alrighty, no responses... Second problem
[18:07] <ppq> andresmujica, see ~/.xsession-errors maybe some error msg there
[18:07] <deryl> i'm having that problem with apparmor after a rescue rsync of AppArmor not available as a kernel LSM error. Will I trash anything (in the interum) if I apt-get purge all apparmor packages and then reinstall it?
[18:07] <obengdako> When you open pavucontrol how manytabs do you
[18:07] <JoshyFox> I want to change the resolution of the boot loading screen, but my resolution isn't available. Are there any other ways of stting it?
[18:07] <wpecker> (obengdako): here is aplay -l if it helps: http://pastebin.com/9H6KF8pg
[18:08] <wpecker> (obengdako): 5
[18:08] <wpecker> playback, recording, input, output, config
[18:08] <obengdako> please name them
[18:08] <ppq> deryl, try 'sudo apt-get --purge --reinstall install package1 package2 etc'
[18:08] <obengdako> Perfect
[18:08] <deryl> ppq OK. will do. thanks
[18:09] <obengdako> play something on your machine
[18:09] <ppq> deryl, that should be a bit safer than removing them and installing them again and the conf is deleted too
[18:09] <Culero_> JoshyFox: if your resolution isn't available, you'll have to settle for a lower res w/ same aspect ratio.
[18:09] <deryl> yeah exactly what i wanted. thanks ppq. will try when this apt-get upgrade finishes.
[18:09] <Blecj`cj> Is there a way to make it so that you don't need to press V every time you want to stop using cookies in Lynx, a text based browser?
[18:09] <obengdako> then start your recording program
[18:10] <kinygos> hi...can anyone recommend a graphics package for ubuntu for producing website graphics, buttons, layout cuts, etc....inkscape is what i'm about to download and use, but just wondering if there's anything else for comparison
[18:10] <Pholious> Anyone here ever had problems installing 10.4 from a USB stick? specifically not getting past the keyboard language selection (step 3)?
[18:10] <andrewaclt> kinygos, gimp
[18:10] <st__> kinygos, wine/photoshop
[18:10] <wpecker> (obengdako): I don't get any sound now, but when I play something the bar indicator below the monitor shows it playing
[18:10] <Blecj`cj> Is there a way to make it so that you don't need to press V every time you want to stop using cookies in Lynx, a text based browser?
[18:10] <JoshyFox> None of them have the same aspect ratio, I don't think
[18:10] <wpecker> (obengdako): but no sound
[18:10] <erUSUL> kinygos: xara is another vector graphic editor. buttons can be made with gimp too
[18:10] <Dr_Willis> Blecj`cj:  check the lynx docs/config files perhaps.
[18:10] <obengdako>  start recording then go to the recording tab
[18:10] <obengdako> you should see the app
[18:11] <kinygos> great, thanks all :)
[18:11] <obengdako> great
[18:11] <erUSUL> !info xaralx
[18:11] <wpecker> in audiocity, there are only mic, front mic, line-in and cd inputs, which one do I choose?

[18:12] <wpecker> ok I see
[18:12] <wpecker> now what shall I do?
[18:13] <obengdako> where is audacity according to the recording tab king input from
[18:13] <wpecker> ah wait it shows ALSA
[18:13] <JoshyFox> Well, I'll google for that one then...
[18:13] <JoshyFox> Third issue
[18:14] <delinquentme> where do i find the ubuntu equivalent of the trashcan?
[18:14] <IdleOne> !trash
[18:14] <JoshyFox> I have a backlit keyboard and the keys to make the brightness change do not work in Ubuntu. Any way to set em up?
[18:14] <obengdako> there should be a button allowing you to change the source of the stream
[18:14] <wpecker> (obengdako): it's recording now
[18:14] <delinquentme> IdleOne, thanks
[18:14] <wpecker> (obengdako): I changed it to pulse and it's recording
[18:15] <wpecker> thanks on this one
[18:15] <Guest70289> Are there any firewall solutions for Linux that doesn't rely on iptables??
[18:15] <obengdako> as you expect?
[18:15] <wpecker> but still no sound
[18:15] <wpecker> yeah it seems to be
[18:15] <obengdako> wait a sec
[18:15] <obengdako> is it recording the sound you are playing?
[18:15] <wpecker> yes
[18:16] <ppq> JoshyFox, check if they produce a keycode with xev
[18:16] <culseg> on 10.04.1 getting ... nautilus and segfault  messages in /log  and screen reboots every 5 seconds...can I ask what steps to fix or access?

[18:18] <montero> hi there!
[18:18] <zippy1979> hi i have a problem installing a new gfx card, can anyone help me with that?
[18:19] <JoshyFox> Yes, for acpi_listen, I got hotkey ATKD 000000c4 00000003

[18:19] <montero> hi everybody
[18:19] <obengdako> i'm on phone now let me switch to pc
[18:19] <wpecker> ok got it
[18:20] <ppq> JoshyFox, ok, are you able to control the brightness via /sys/class/xyz/brightness? or something similiar
[18:20] <montero> i'm new on this,but is there someone to know how can i conect to red-latina? I'll really thank it a lot
[18:20] <JoshyFox> How would I do that, ppq?
[18:20] <ppq> JoshyFox, to change a value in a file in /sys: 'echo 10 | sudo tee /sys/foo/bar'
[18:20] <ActionParsnip> !hi | montero
[18:20] <ppq> JoshyFox, but be sure about the file
[18:21] <ppq> and the value :) sometimes there's a max_brightness file
[18:21] <montero>  is there someone to know how can i conect to red-latina? I'll really thank it a lot
[18:21] <zippy1979> hi anyone able to help with a gfx card problem?
[18:21] <ActionParsnip> zippy1979: if you run: sudo lshw -C display    you will see the video chip and can search for guides
[18:21] <JoshyFox> ppq, where do I find the file? That command said there was no such file or directory
[18:21] <ppq> JoshyFox, of course, the path was only an example
[18:21] <zippy1979> problem is that i changed the gfx card and now it only boots into cmd line
[18:22] <zippy1979> I had a SIS chipset, and now installed an ATI
[18:22] <ppq> JoshyFox, you have to look for yourself through /sys for something suspisious
[18:22] <ppq> *suspicious
[18:22] <JoshyFox> Ah, ok ppq :D
[18:22] <montero>  is there someone to know how can i conect to red-latina? I'll really thank it a lot
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> zippy1979: do you have an xorg.conf file?
[18:22] <wpecker> (obengdako): you there yet?
[18:22] <Dr_Willis> zippy1979:  see if tehres a /etc/X11/xorg.conf if so. rename the file.  and try to 'sudo service gdm start'
[18:22] <obengdako> almost
[18:22] <ActionParsnip> montero: repeating it doesn't give extra info. What is red-latina?
[18:22] <erUSUL> zippy1979: move your xorg.conf out of the way? « sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.oldSiS »
[18:23] <kimo_23> hi !

[18:28] <andrewaclt> How do I change Xorg log level, the man page says -loglevel [n] but ubuntu starts x on boot, so where do I put that?
[18:28] <obengdako> please restart your system

[18:29] <zippy1979> i also tried to rename my xorg.conf but there was no file/directory found
[18:29] <Dr_Willis> zippy1979:  you did type the name/path right?
[18:29] <Dr_Willis> ls -l /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[18:29] <|ares|> Who can help me ?
[18:29] <Dr_Willis> !ask | |ares|
[18:30] <Pholious> Anyone here ever had problems installing 10.4 from a USB stick? specifically not getting past the keyboard language selection (step 3)? It just keeps loading forever..
[18:30] <andrewaclt> How do I change Xorg log level, the man page says -loglevel [n] but ubuntu starts x on boot, so where do I put that?
[18:30] <obengdako> wpecker have you restarted
[18:30] <wildc4rd> evenin' all
[18:30] <delinquentme> Pholious, i ran into a problem with not having open partition space on my HD ... do you already have a open spot on your HD for installation?
[18:31] <zippy1979> yes I typed this " sudo mv /etc/x11/xorg.conf /etc/x11/xorg.conf.oldSIS"
[18:31] <zippy1979> To Dr Willis, the ls command also falied
[18:31] <|ares|> I'm newbie for linux. But I have got problems with gaming i try play games with wine and try to play linux game nexuiz and i got LAG it not possible to play! Sorry for mistakes I'm not english man!
[18:31] <Pholious> delinquentme, hmm, well half of my HDD should be avail for it
[18:31] <Pholious> partitioned it for linux years ago
[18:31] <serp_> |ares|: running games through wine is almost always going to be a worse experience than running them on linux
[18:31] <serp_> on windows*
[18:31] <zippy1979> This is my first experience with Linux, so i am not familiar with the commands
[18:32] <delinquentme> Pholious, your previous OS is what windows?
[18:32] <Dr_Willis> andrewaclt:  the /etc/X11/Xsession mention a 'x option' file (that dosent exist by default)  OPTIONFILE=/etc/X11/Xsession.options   perhas the Xsession file will give a clue where options may be set.
[18:32] <obengdako> wpecker
[18:32] <andrewaclt> Dr_Willis, thanks
[18:32] <Absolute> you can use crossover serp, you would have to buy it. There is a trial for it.
[18:32] <|ares|> serp_ I try play linux game without wine Nequiz and it works worse
[18:32] <Dr_Willis> zippy1979:   You are tyoping it wrong.. LINUX is CaSE SenESeTiVe
[18:32] <zippy1979> I see, I will try again, sorry
[18:32] <Dr_Willis> ls -l /etc/X11/xorg.conf   -- is NOT the same as /etc/x11/xorg.conf
[18:33] <sebuba> HELP
[18:33] <delinquentme> Pholious, not only does there need to be SPACE .. but the PARTITIONED area of the previous OS need to be shrunk to leave open unpartitioned space on the HD
[18:33] <Pholious> delinquentme, the problem makes sense though as step 4 should be the HDD selection. Nope, it's just a HDD partitioned in two sections, one readable by windows and the other half by linux
[18:33] <deryl> damn that didn't work out ppq
[18:33] <bruenig> kimo_23: then do gnome-terminal -e sudo bleachbit
[18:33] <deryl> the command was fine, just didn't fix the problem
[18:33] <bruenig> kimo_23: running sudo in anything other than a terminal will not work
[18:33] <serp_> Absolute: it will always be better to run them natively
[18:33] <bruenig> unless you are using NOPASSWD exceptions and the like
[18:33] <bruenig> it will just hang
[18:33] <obengdako> okay now you are back
[18:34] <Pholious> delinquentme, hmm, well I have 3 HDDs in here, only one has another OS on it. But I assume the HDD needs to be fat32?
[18:34] <Absolute> i know that
[18:34] <wpecker> sound output is working
[18:34] <obengdako> okay now run padevchooser
[18:34] <ppq> deryl, repeat the problem pls
[18:34] <SLAiNTRAX> Hello. I can't get Ubuntu to install on my Dell Latitude XT. The alternative image wont find my harddrive and netbook one kernel panics because of my graphics driver. I'm trying to install the latest ubuntu 10.10 beta.
[18:34] <obengdako> keep your music player runnig
[18:34] <Absolute> what file system should i use for a SSD? still ext4?
[18:34] <kimo_23> bruenig: it works thank you! :)
[18:35] <delinquentme> Pholious, id go back and verify that the space is open .. im not 100% on the file system but i can tell you that "right click, my computer" > "manage" and in there youill have the option to remove partition formatting
[18:35] <ppq> Absolute, that doesnt really matter als long as you dont use ntfs oder fat, ext4 will work fine
[18:35] <delinquentme> its within a subtab there
[18:35] <sebuba> , lacked an argument in my command here in irc, sorry
[18:35] <wpecker> (obengdako): I think everything is working, one sec. pls
[18:35] <zippy1979> I changed the x to a capital X so the line I wrote exactly was "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.oldSIS" including the etc
[18:36] <zippy1979> still no file or directory error
[18:36] <deryl> Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, apparmor packages all installed, on boot I get AppArmor not available as kernel LSM. After tracing through the apparmor script its appearing not to find /sys/kernel/security mounted (this is the value of SECURITYFS that the init script looks for) and thus thinks apparmor isn't available. mount shows /sys/kernel/security mounted
[18:36] <Pholious> delinquentme, alright cheers, will have a look into it. I am on ubuntu atm, just cannot finalize the install, but it can run from the USB-stick, yay :D
[18:36] <Pholious> delinquentme, at least I know where to look now, thanks a lot!
[18:36] <delinquentme> Pholious,  NP ! :D
[18:36] <wpecker> (obengdako): all working fine, thanks very much
[18:36] <deryl> the /etc/apparmor/functions file sets the SECURITYFS variable
[18:37] <wpecker> (obengdako): recording and playback all are fine now
[18:37] <SLAiNTRAX> Ubuntu 10.10 beta alternative install can't find my harddrive. Any suggestions?
[18:37] <obengdako> can you record from firefox and internal sound now
[18:37] <obengdako> wpecker let me tell you sth
[18:37] <deryl> which is called from the /etc/init.d/apparmor script (sorry meant that on the last line)
[18:37] <boywonder> hi, whats the usual size of the swap partition?
[18:37] <andrewaclt> Dr_Willis, Unfortunately, those options are not what I'm looking for (according to man Xsession.options)
[18:37] <obengdako> i was in class all that while i only switched to pc after the class
[18:37] <ppq> deryl, sorry, no idea
[18:38] <obengdako> so figure out how to use the pavucontrol
[18:38] <obengdako> at input tab just select all input devices
[18:38] <deryl> hehe, np. I tried everything I could find on google, even stuff that applies to hardy anhd jaunty
[18:38] <obengdako> then select monitor of internal audio analog stereo as fallback
[18:39] <obengdako> wpecker
[18:39] <obengdako> see you
[18:39] <wpecker> ok obeng thanks
[18:39] <Pholious> meh need to reboots, Daemon is being inhibited here, be right back :)
[18:39] <wpecker> I'll figure it out, ty
[18:39] <ashok_shetty> hi any one tell me what is segmentation fault
[18:39] <rizzuh> ashok_shetty, attempt to access protected memory
[18:40] <boywonder> hi, whats the usual size of the swap partition?
[18:40] <deryl> boywonder ~ equal to your ram at the least. usually 2x
[18:40] <ashok_shetty> rizzuh: ok thanks
[18:40] <rizzuh> boywonder, how much RAM do you need?
[18:40] <ashok_shetty> rizzuh: let me try to sort out and will get back to u soon
[18:41] <rizzuh> deryl, nonsense on anything with more than 2GB.
[18:41] <boywonder> so if i have a swap off 600meg somthing is wrong?
[18:41] <rizzuh> boywonder, how much memory do you have?
[18:41] <boywonder> i dunno
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> boywonder: if you have 2Gb ram or more then 1x RAM, otherwise 2xram
[18:41] <rizzuh> boywonder, well find out, please.
[18:41] <erUSUL> boywonder: depends on how much ram you have and in the workload
[18:41] <deryl> rizzuh ~ not true. i have to have more than 2GB for suspend to disk to work
[18:41] <ashok_shetty> rizzuh: then how to direct to other place
[18:41] <boywonder> how do i find, i think its 512?
[18:41] <rizzuh> deryl, sure. Anything more is useless with decent amounts of RAM.
[18:42] <rizzuh> ashok_shetty, I don't know, did you make the program in question?
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> boywonder: if suspend doesnt interest you and you have like 4Gb ram then no swap is fine
[18:42] <zippy1979uk> any more suggestions or is this a reinstall job?
[18:42] <ShredMaster> wine has caused problem
[18:42] <ashok_shetty> rizzuh:frnd i was trying to run lkl keylogger thru terminal im getting segmantion fault
[18:42] <deryl> rizzuh ~ while agreed, the usual rule of thumb is equal to ram in the event that the entire amount of ram (for whatever reason) has to be swapped out. (fucked up context switch or something)
[18:43] <rizzuh> ashok_shetty, contact the developer
[18:43] <ashok_shetty> rizzuh: tell me how to sort it out
[18:43] <zippy1979uk> i'm still in the room, please ignore the quit message
[18:43] <DrPoO> how do i find out how much ram a given process is using?
[18:43] <zippy1979uk> i have a crappy wireless
[18:43] <rizzuh> ashok_shetty, without the code, you don't
[18:43] <ShredMaster> Wine has installed Notepad and the fonts are bad, and I always have to do OPEN WITH-
[18:43] <erUSUL> DrPoO: ps
[18:43] <deryl> zippy1979uk ~ on irc its called a channel (just an fyi) not a room. AOL uses rooms :)
[18:43] <peleg> I feel that I am being ignored here. Lunchpad claims this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mplayer/+bug/556200  is fixed, and that a fix is released. How come it is not fixed on my updated ubuntu 10.04?
[18:43] <IdleOne> !language | deryl
[18:43] <ashok_shetty> rizzuh: i have codes
[18:44] <deryl> doh! sorry
[18:44] <rizzuh> ashok_shetty, then read and fix them. I don't have the code.
[18:45] <AbhiJit> zippy1979uk, it seems that its nt only your problem its something of freenode problem
[18:45] <ashok_shetty> rizzuh: k
[18:45] <AbhiJit> see it shows i am quit!
[18:45] <AbhiJit> oh!!! sorry I made the same mistake as all of you!!!!
[18:45]  * AbhiJit is going mad!
[18:45] <Wizzard7> Afternoon, folks. Just watching for now... thanks..
[18:45] <deryl> hehe. i'm alraedy there. see you when you get here :)
[18:46] <erUSUL> peleg: looks like is fixed in maverick's mplayer
[18:46] <techbreak> i have python 2.6.6 in my ubuntu.. how to upgrade it to python 3.0 ?? anybody help??
[18:46] <slooksterpsv> @all - ubuntu forums are down
[18:46] <rizzuh> techbreak, sudo aptitude install python3 I guess
[18:47] <slooksterpsv> rizzuh - that's how you do it
[18:47] <peleg> erUSUL, oh, I see; how can I get it, if I can at all, then? (thanks for your reply!)
[18:47] <kurnia> hai
[18:47] <techbreak> rizzuh, if you are sure?
[18:47] <rizzuh> slooksterpsv, wasn't sure about package name
[18:47] <rizzuh> techbreak, try it
[18:47] <st__> techbreak, you cannot because those are different languages
[18:47] <kurnia> i wantt learning for hacking
[18:47] <pikers> hola necesito saver si alguien save utilizar Hiren's Boot 9.6 urgente!!!
[18:47] <slooksterpsv> rizzuh, you got it =D package names are easy aren't they? lol
[18:47] <IdleOne> !es | pikers
[18:48] <IdleOne> kurnia: not in this channel
[18:48] <rizzuh> slooksterpsv, well I kinda figured it was python3.
[18:48] <Aqaz> !info lxde
[18:48] <techbreak> slooksterpsv, rizzuh i guess it worked :) updating :)
[18:48] <peleg> it says "This bug was fixed in the package mplayer -- 2:1.0~rc3++final-0ubuntu1" -- my version is SVN-r1.0~rc3+svn20090426-4.4.3...  but this is the newest version in the repository, it seems.
[18:48] <erUSUL> peleg: dunno maybe you can request it to be backported to lucid
[18:48] <techbreak> rizzuh, but its updating to 3.1... is 3.1 released? sloo
[18:48] <zippy1979uk> I'm gonna reinstall, but as a first experience of ubuntu, this sucks, changing the GFX card shouldn't kill my GUI
[18:48] <rizzuh> techbreak, yeah
[18:48] <techbreak> slooksterpsv,
[18:48] <peleg> erUSUL, don't you think I can find a .deb file of it somewhere?
[18:49] <rizzuh> kurnia, get BackTrack.
[18:49] <slooksterpsv> techbreak, I believe it is checking python.org to see
[18:49] <Dr_Willis> zippy1979uk:  only thing ive ever had to do was remove the xorg.conf, and install the proper drivers for the new card.
[18:49] <slooksterpsv> techbreak, yes it is, 3.1.2
[18:49] <techbreak> slooksterpsv, great
[18:49] <deryl> zippy1979uk ~ just find out what driver your card uses via google and change the Driver line to match in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[18:49] <techbreak> slooksterpsv, i got ebook for 3.0 is it gonna hamper my codes?
[18:49] <rizzuh> techbreak, no
[18:50] <erUSUL> peleg: well you can try to install the maverick version but probably it wont work to well
[18:50] <ashok_shetty> what is GUI
[18:50] <deryl> zippy1979uk ~ then restart gdm/kdm
[18:50] <Dr_Willis> if theres no xorg.conf it should default to the proper driver..  (well some driver at least)
[18:50] <techbreak> rizzuh, hope so
[18:50] <deryl> Graphical User interface
[18:50] <rizzuh> ashok_shetty, graphical user interface
[18:50] <zippy1979uk> i've tried the commands you guys have suggested, but it keeps saying no file or directory found
[18:50] <techbreak> rizzuh, i wish the ebook will do for me
[18:50] <rizzuh> techbreak, only python 1.X to 2.X to 3.X is breaking
[18:50] <peleg> erUSUL, requesting such a thing sounds like a very long thing. All I want is to watch a movie tonight... and I am working on it for 3 hours already. I have also tried 3 times to compile it on my own, with no luck...
[18:50] <Dr_Willis> zippy1979uk:  what were the Exact commands you used.. cut/paste them.
[18:50] <funky_karun> hi
[18:50] <rizzuh> techbreak, 3.1 is backwards compatible with 3.0
[18:50] <erUSUL> peleg: vlc? xine? totem?
[18:50] <slooksterpsv> anyone got the fgrlx working on Maverik working? I almost had it, kept getting broken pipe
[18:51] <techbreak> but 2.6.6 and 3.0 were cool with each other i guess (with some mere issues)
[18:51] <deryl> slooksterpsv ~ nope. which is why i axed the Maverick install
[18:51] <deryl> sticking with Lucid until I see its working
[18:51] <techbreak> rizzuh, but 2.6.6 and 3.0 were cool with each other (with some little issue)
[18:51] <Dr_Willis> zippy1979uk:  if you cant cut/paste.. well.. type them carefully i guess. :)
[18:51] <slooksterpsv> deryl - I've got composition working and all that, but it's not using fglrx, it's odd
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> deryl: wise move
[18:51]  * obengdako closes laptop lid
[18:51] <rizzuh> techbreak, yeah, there were some breaking changesd
[18:51] <pudgypaw> first time doing IRC over empathy, whoahh
[18:52] <deryl> actionparsnip ~ hehe yeah I like playing movies and stuff :)
[18:52] <peleg> erUSUL, vlc, for some weird reason, don't keep the pace of the hebrew subtitles -- no matter how I fix the delay and the rate, it ignores it. mplayer does it perfectly -- but shows the subtitles flipped.
[18:52] <Dr_Willis> zippy1979uk:  exact command to see if you have a xorg.conf --->      ls -l /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[18:52] <zippy1979uk> I wrote was "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.oldSIS" including the etc
[18:52] <pikers> Hi I need someone save saver using Hiren's BootCD is very urgent
[18:52] <slooksterpsv> techbreak, like print "" no longer works, it has to be print ("blah blah")
[18:52] <techbreak> rizzuh, installation finished... i checked again but still its 2.6.6
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> pikers: save saver/
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> ?
[18:52] <slooksterpsv> techbreak, type in python3 <appname>
[18:52] <Dr_Willis> zippy1979uk:  you did remove the " marks right? (ive seen people not do that)
[18:52] <deryl> slooksterpsv ~ and you do have fglrx in the xorg.conf correct?
[18:52] <rizzuh> techbreak, python 3 <bla bla>
[18:52] <techbreak> slooksterpsv, oh thanks for that info... where to find the changes?
[18:52] <deryl> just checking
[18:53] <zippy1979uk> I tried the ls command also with a capitalised X but that gave me the same error
[18:53] <zippy1979uk> I did not include the quotes
[18:53] <techbreak> rizzuh, slooksterpsv am i supposed to start doing writing codes with "python3?"
[18:53] <grendal_prime> hey guys...i got a logroate problem anyone use openvpn and there logrotate not work right?
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> pikers: whats a save saver??
[18:53] <Dr_Willis> zippy1979uk:  so if you do  the command 'startx'  does it give some sort of usefull error messages?
[18:53] <An_Ony_Moose> is there a live CD that allows more options in terms of partitioning when installing?
[18:53] <rizzuh> techbreak, yes, unless you remove python 2 and break things
[18:53] <slooksterpsv> techbreak, http://python.org/download/releases/3.1.2/
[18:53] <pudgypaw> [Amazon EC2]ok so uuh, i need help with amazon cloud computing... dunno if anyone knows anything about this?
[18:54] <techbreak> slooksterpsv, got that version just now installed
[18:54] <Dr_Willis> An_Ony_Moose:  you can always install gparted on the live cd and partiion however you want.. or use fdisk/cfdisk.. or what exactly are youy trying to do?
[18:54] <ActionParsnip> An_Ony_Moose: if its linux based then they will all be the same, if you use fdisk you can set any filesystem type you like...
[18:54] <techbreak> slooksterpsv, rizzuh i think both are there
[18:54] <pikers> Hi I need someone save saver using Hiren's BootCD is very urgent
[18:54] <peleg> erUSUL, xine displays Gibberish instead of Hebrew (can't get the proper encoding)
[18:54] <rizzuh> techbreak, yes, so use what you want
[18:54] <techbreak> slooksterpsv, rizzuh and when i just type python it takes me to older one
[18:54] <An_Ony_Moose> Dr_Willis, install to an already existing partition
[18:54] <deryl> pikers ~ just download the damn ISO. its FREE
[18:54] <techbreak> rizzuh, slooksterpsv thats good in fact :)
[18:54] <slooksterpsv> techbreak, yup you'll have both 2.x and 3.x now, the link I sent has release notes on what's changed - to run code in python 3.x you have to type python3 filename.py
[18:54] <pudgypaw> [AmazonEC2]errrr anyone?
[18:54] <An_Ony_Moose> ActionParsnip, I mean simply an ubuntu CD that allows more configuration
[18:55] <rizzuh> techbreak, python = python 2; python3 = python 3.
[18:55] <techbreak> slooksterpsv, okei... does your link provide the changes made?
[18:55] <erUSUL> peleg: :S. as i said you can try to get the package from packages.ubuntu.com dunno if it would install ( dependencies )
[18:55] <boywonder> im wanting to unistall a package how can i find the package name to uninstall its vbox?
[18:55] <zippy1979uk> this is what i got after startx "giving up xinit: no such file or directory (errno 2): unable to connect to X server
[18:55] <techbreak> rizzuh, gotcha
[18:55] <slooksterpsv> techbreak, yeah, they're trying to make a 2to3 conversion tool as it's backwards-incompatible with 2.0
[18:55] <slooksterpsv> brb

[18:55] <Dr_Willis> An_Ony_Moose:  i do that all the time.. but the installer does try to format the / ,  but i use premade/formated  partitions for /home/ and extra /media/datastuff  all the time
[18:55] <grendal_prime> zippy1979uk, you dont have x running
[18:55] <pudgypaw> [AmazonEC2]am i even talking to the right people?
[18:55] <magicianlord> Should kernel26-headers be installed, for occasionally having to rebuilt the broadcom driver, or is it better to leave them uninstalled, because they increase update size.
[18:55] <grendal_prime> probably not installe

[18:56] <An_Ony_Moose> Dr_Willis, ah. thanks, that might help :)
[18:56] <Dr_Willis> zippy1979uk:  whats the exact chipset of ati card you have?
[18:56] <grendal_prime> zippy1979uk, aptitude is a command line only app.
[18:56] <grendal_prime> its curses based
[18:56] <pudgypaw> [AmazonEC2] so uuh, does anyone know what i'm talking about, or what EC2 is...
[18:56] <deryl> pikers ~ do NOT message me asking me for that
[18:56] <grendal_prime> installed by default
[18:56] <boywonder> gendal-prime  im trying to use that only cant find it
[18:57] <grendal_prime> you can also use apt-cache search.  but..
[18:57] <zippy1979uk> i will have to open the pc to findout the chipset, give me a moment
[18:57] <grendal_prime> zippy1979uk, its in the path..just type aptitude

[19:00] <pudgypaw> I switched to ubuntu 3 months ago, and then decided to launch my website on virutual hosting space on ubuntu server
[19:00] <ashok_shetty> hi any one tell me how to access downloads thru terminal im new to tech
[19:00] <administrator_> hi everywone :)
[19:00] <ashok_shetty> administrator_: hi
[19:00] <Dr_Willis> ashok_shetty:  downloads you downloaded from the browser? Mine default to the 'Downloads' directory
[19:00] <pudgypaw> however I'm getting lag from other virtual instances when they burst to full box and hog CPU
[19:01] <obengdako> Ashok use wget
[19:01] <ashok_shetty> Dr_Willis, want direct to download
[19:01] <pudgypaw> i'm looking at Cloud Computing because it allows you to keep a dedicated area of the CPU as well as HDD, RAM, everything
[19:01] <Dr_Willis> ashok_shetty:  huh? Its a directory right there in the users Home dir.. /home/yourusername/Downloads
[19:01] <pudgypaw> so no one can HOG the cpu at mission critical times
[19:01] <ashok_shetty> obengdako: hey i dont want to download any thing
[19:01] <obengdako> and use it in terminal as wget -c
[19:02] <obengdako> then add url
[19:02] <teen4God> how do I give myself permission to create a folder in my filesystem?

[19:02] <pudgypaw> micro instance (just 2 pennies per hour!)
[19:02] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: could you help me again?
[19:02] <Dr_Willis> teen4God:  depends on the filesystem.. normally you set yourself as the 'owner' of the root of the filesystem, or some directories on teh filesystem
[19:02] <pudgypaw> my problem right now is
[19:02] <pudgypaw> Apache Won't Parse!
[19:03] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: i need help on what i should choose when i format this usb drive to be able to see ubuntu on it
[19:03] <slooksterpsv1> whoa, should not have upgraded the beta, internet dropping in and out
[19:03] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, just ask  your question to channel in general. and wait. if anyone knows they will answer.
[19:03] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, vfat or fat
[19:03] <pudgypaw> I want DB in separate instance/server so I setup ONLY apache and PHP, and server pulls pages with empty HTML header and body (when u check source page)

[19:04] <jrib> pudgypaw: read troubleshooting section in ubottu's !lamp factoid
[19:04] <deryl> administrator_ ~ look for the FHS 2 on google.
[19:04] <Dr_Willis> ashok_shetty:  i dont know what you mean 'direct up to home' / Perhaps you need to read a few bash/cli tutorials.
[19:04] <erUSUL> pudgypaw: sorry for the double factoid
[19:04] <administrator_> thank you a lor, Dr_willis
[19:04] <administrator_> ok, i will :)
[19:04] <deryl> use keywords FHS2 linux
[19:04] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, ok it will do
[19:04] <zippy1979uk> thanks anyway guys but i will try to reinstall
[19:04] <terran4000_> hey all .. just wondering. Is there a gnome version of "Bespin"? Cause it's the only theme I found (in kde) that isn't a mac clone of a win7/vista clone and it actually looks great. So, anyone know of 'bespin' in gnome?
[19:05] <deryl> administrator_ ~ Filesystem Hierarchy Standard v2 is what it's called. 2.3 is the most current iirc
[19:05] <ashok_shetty> Dr_willis, want to check whats thier in downloads thru terminal
[19:05] <Dr_Willis> terran4000_:  check the gnome art. and other gnome theme sites.
[19:05] <Wizzard7> Can anyone tell me what causes the screen to darken (not screensaver) and the system to hang for a while?
[19:05] <deryl> ashok_shetty ~ ls ~/Downloads/

[19:05] <Dr_Willis> !cli | ashok_shetty
[19:05] <Wizzard7> memory or cpu?
[19:05] <administrator_> thanks a lot, guys, i certainly have something to read tonight :P
[19:05] <deryl> hehe what dr_willis said
[19:05] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/2835/70134732.png
[19:05] <deryl> administrator_ ~ welcome
[19:06] <AbhiJit> ahh
[19:06] <pudgypaw> sorry but i've tried just apache/php for efficiency reasons and have also tried full lamp stack, it works fine and fast on normal ubuntu server 10.04, my problem is the EC2 ami-12f3a257 Canonical provides.. ran into some bugs and found the hotfix but this one seems to be......
[19:06] <pudgypaw> like, i know what LAMP is
[19:06] <jrib> pudgypaw: do you have a question?
[19:06] <Dr_Willis> ashok_shetty:  remember that linux IS CaSe SenEsTiVe.
[19:06] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, whtas that for?
[19:06] <jrib> pudgypaw: we told you to read the troubleshooting section specifically for your problem with php files downloading
[19:06] <ashok_shetty> Dr_willis thanks i got it
[19:06]  * AbhiJit ReMeMbErS]
[19:07] <deryl> hehe
[19:07] <Dr_Willis> ashok_shetty:  i highly suggest you spend an hr or 2 reading up on bash and shell basics.. its worth the time.
[19:07] <pudgypaw> my problem is, the particular amazon server 10.04 image provides, ami-12f3a257, refuses to parse php no matter what package is used
[19:07] <pudgypaw> normal server 10.04 is fine
[19:07] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: it creates a grub4dos setup that will let me run the hirens boot cd i was telling you about
[19:07]  * Lavanya thinks thats better
[19:07] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, ok
[19:07] <ashok_shetty> Dr_willis will i get
[19:07] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: but i want it to see the linux distro too, will it?
[19:07] <pudgypaw> i'm familiar with the entire situation with parsing issues but i'm suspecting i found a bug
[19:07] <circumbendibus> is there a pidgin specific channel?  i tried the otr plugin, but it wouldnt let my friend verify.  i turned it off and now its gone.  it doesnt trust her computer, and i cant get the plugin back
[19:07] <pudgypaw> i came in here wondering if anyone can confirm or deny
[19:08] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, i dunnno. see their docs. manuals etc. ask their dev. see their forums mailign list irc etc
[19:08] <deryl> ashok_shetty ~ www.tldp.org and I suggest you do a LOT of reading
[19:08] <Dr_Willis> I even read my bash 'books' i have.. and relearn/rediscover stuff :)
[19:08] <Dr_Willis> even after reading them the 5th time..
[19:09] <ashok_shetty> Dr_Willis: thanks and sure will do it dude
[19:09] <deryl> always miss something. mind can hold only so much in each go-round
[19:09] <Dr_Willis> Keep notes, jot things down.  the tomboy notes tool is good for that, and build you yoru knowledge
[19:09] <jrib> pudgypaw: confirm or deny *what*?  Ask a specific question on one line
[19:10] <Wizzard7> Can anyone tell me what causes the screen to darken (not screensaver) and the system to hang for a while? I have 10.04. on an AMD 64 X2 4200+
[19:10] <pheonixman> hi guys, i am a newbie to linux and i wanna learn shell scripting...please suggest me some good book or a website (like tutorial) that i can use to start shell scripting
[19:10] <pudgypaw> [AmazonEC2 AMI ami-12f3a257] is there a bug with this machine image? Apache+PHP5 yields WSOD. Full LAMP stack yields no parsing of PHP
[19:10] <pikers> Hi I need someone save saver using Hiren's BootCD is very urgent
[19:10] <kitari_lou> hi
[19:11] <Dr_Willis> Wizzard7:  theres a compiz feature to 'dim'   the window of a program if it 'hangs' for a few moments.. as an indication that its hung. :)
[19:11] <kitari_lou> My computer as decided that it would not install any apps anymore could someone help me?
[19:11] <Wizzard7> yeah, I'll Agree with that
[19:11] <Dr_Willis> kitari_lou:  start with what errors  that 'sudo apt-get update' 'sudo apt-get upgrade' says..
[19:11] <pudgypaw> [AmazonEC2 AMI ami-12f3a257] Already found one bug where SSL Key isn't preserved upon reboot, but found hotfix and it's OK. don't know if PHP issue is new bug. I have no trouble with stock Server 10.04
[19:12] <Wizzard7> I have the system set for "performance", but it seems a misnomer sometimes....
[19:12] <Dr_Willis> Wizzard7:  disable compiz for a bit of a boost (if you are using it)
[19:12] <Dr_Willis> Wizzard7:  for more boost - switch to a lightter desktpp. or just use a window manager and sort of 'roll your own' light desktop. (or use somthing like lxde)
[19:12] <ashok_shetty> Dr_Willis: im not getting any basic information thier dude
[19:13] <Wizzard7> is that the mouse theme thing? I haven't used Ubuntu for a while, going back to it, windows made me mad
[19:13] <Dr_Willis> ashok_shetty:  assume we have the attention span of a newt.. what are you talking about...
[19:13] <kitari_lou> Dr_Willis,  there's an freaking load of text appearing and it's asked me if I wanted to install some stuff when I typed sudo apt-get upgrade
[19:14] <Dr_Willis> kitari_lou:  so it did ask to install stuff... so you may want to upgrade, then try ti install whatever it was you are havbing issues with installing
[19:14] <pudgypaw> [AmazonEC2 AMI ami-12f3a257] so can anyone affirm or deny the issue i found?

[19:16] <kitari_lou> Dr_Willis, ok thanks I'll try
[19:16] <v3nd3tta``> diverted it is a question of which sound editor you want to use
[19:16] <jrib> pudgypaw: no one knows what "the issue" is.  Just repeat your actual question every 10 minutes or so to see if new people can help you
[19:16] <pudgypaw> alright

[19:20] <v3nd3tta``> it should be, even i am just using kubuntu :P
[19:20] <Dr_Willis> Wizzard7:  youi dont unionstall it.. you turn it off.. right click on desktop, change background/wallpaper -> last tab in that dialog box
[19:20] <v3nd3tta``> Tarrasch you might do "sudo apt-get install mc"
[19:20] <Tarrasch> !help mc

[19:22] <Tarrasch> antIP - I've got the same problem :-/
[19:23] <tpdd_work> I am looking for a way to use a verizon um190 from pantec to connect to the internet.  Ubuntu sees it as a gsm device and what I have seen in the forum fails in the account authentication with verizon.
[19:23] <antIP> Tarrash - Seems like it should be simple to set up.
[19:23] <Wizzard7> antIP, wired or wireless network?
[19:24] <antIP> Wizzard7: Well, it's a wireless network. One computer is wireless and one is wired.
[19:24] <KeithChester> how do i search several files (and sub directories) to see if they contain a string of text?
[19:24] <Wizzard7> antIP, using a router or hub or switch?
[19:24] <jrib> KeithChester: grep -R
[19:25] <boywonder> why would my cpu run at 100%?
[19:25] <Wizzard7> they need to be able to talk to a common device
[19:25] <KeithChester> do i put quotes around what im searching jrib ?
[19:25] <jrib> KeithChester: sure
[19:25] <KeithChester> thanks
[19:25] <antIP> Wizzard7: Using dd-wrt router
[19:25] <Wizzard7> boywonder, seems like it is busy running things
[19:27] <Wizzard7> antIP, I've never networked in Ubutu but I would think that if both machines can find the router, it's a matter of pathing/mounting the two to see each other. I'm guessing one of the Ubuntu techs here can better advise you.
[19:27] <antIP> Wizzard7: Ok.
[19:28] <antIP> Wizzard7: Yeah, surprisingly I can't find anything in helpful in my google searches.
[19:28] <drew212> how can i get my sudo password back if it randomly changed?
[19:28] <Wizzard7> I can understand that, antIP
[19:28] <xbonesx> im not uderstanding how to get my usb drive to run the linux live cd?
[19:28] <xbonesx> please help anyone
[19:29] <Lavanya> Can anyoone help me with openDNS?
[19:29] <Lavanya> *anyone
[19:29] <Wizzard7> xbonesx, for mine, I restarted with the Live CD in the drive, it boots to the CD
[19:29] <Wizzard7> you have to have your boot order set first
[19:29] <drew212> my sudo password randomly changed, any way to retrieve/change it?
[19:29] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: how did your password *randomly* change?
[19:29] <boywonder> can anyone tell me how to uninstall vbox?
[19:29] <Wizzard7> exactly my question, randomly changed??
[19:30] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: i have no clue, but i'm typing in the same password i have for a while now, and its saying, Sorry, try again.
[19:30] <xbonesx> Wizzard7: lol i dont want to boot from the cd i want to put the contents of the cd on a usb and then boot from that...
[19:30] <Wizzard7> boywonder, I'm guessing either thru Ubuntu Software Center, or using Package manager
[19:30] <drew212> so basically i've lost alot of access to my computer =X
[19:30] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: you are logged in, so change your password.
[19:30] <lorenzocabrini> Then you may need to look at your sudo config.
[19:30] <boywonder> its ok lamos
[19:31] <Wizzard7> xbonesx, seems like that would be a matter of copying the Live CD onto the USB...
[19:31] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: how do i do that?
[19:31] <Lavanya> Anyone?
[19:31] <drew212> (change my password and check my sudo config)
[19:31] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: ok im having troubles doing this would you assist me please
[19:31] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: in a terminal, type passwd (note spelling)
[19:31] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, doing what?
[19:31] <Tarrasch> antIP, Did you manage to solve you file transfer problem?
[19:32] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: I'm sure Gnome/KDE use some GUI tool for changing passwords, but I don't use either of them.
[19:32] <xbonesx> setting up the usb drive for use of the "live cd" and for installation purposes
[19:32] <Wizzard7> drew, checked the caps key?
[19:32] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, where you aer having problems?
[19:32] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: it won't let me change my password, i need my sudo password to change it =X
[19:32] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, which os you are trying to install in usb?
[19:32] <Curt> I get no response when I ping 127.0.0.1
[19:32] <Curt> what did I break?
[19:32] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: not possible, users can change their own password.
[19:32] <demism> Say I'm wirelessly connected to my friends router. My ip address is assigned through dhcp, which is a 192. address. Is there a way without configuring the router that I can connect to my computer from another computer not on the network?
[19:32] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: Authentication token manipulation error
[19:32] <antIP> Tarrasch: Nope. Still trying to figure out how to share files over my network.
[19:32] <reenignEesreveR> there is no /etc/apt/apt.conf in lucid :(
[19:33] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: from win7 cuz i dont know how to do it from linux, but i could switch back to linux if you know how too
[19:33] <lorenzocabrini> Ah, because it is asking you for your current password, right?
[19:33] <lorenzocabrini> And that has changed.
[19:33] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: yes
[19:33] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, i ddnt asked you from which os you are doing this. i asked which os you want to install in pen drive?
[19:33] <Wizzard7> Antip, do you have the two machines where they will see each other on the network?
[19:33] <jrib> demism: google "reverse ssh tunnel"
[19:33] <ashok_shetty> hi tried installing lkl but this is the error im getting
[19:33] <lorenzocabrini> Well, if you don't know the password, and you don't have a specific root password set, then you might have to do it the hard way...
[19:34] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: oh, ubuntu 10.04.1
[19:34] <jrib> demism: I don't know of a good canonical resource, sorry.  So use your judgement and read several sources
[19:34] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: what's that?
[19:34] <AbhiJit> !usb | xbonesx see the persistent link
[19:34] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: but passwords do not, and I repeat, do not change randomly.
[19:34] <antIP> Wizzard7: No, the computers don't see each other.
[19:34] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, make use of unetbootin and a software from pendrivelinux.com
[19:34] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: could that indicate a security issue?
[19:34] <lorenzocabrini> either you or somebody else has changed the password
[19:34] <culseg> Dr_Willis: screen loses all icons to Ubunbu wallpaper then refreshes about every 4-5 seconds....I have opended Launchpad question just now
[19:35] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: i havent changed any of my passwords...
[19:35] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: do you have sshd installed? Does anybody else know your password?
[19:35] <drew212> i do have sshd installed...
[19:35] <drew212> i don't think i have it running though?
[19:35] <antIP> Wizzard7: the only thing I have is a link to "Windows Network" which says "Failed to retrieve share list from server" when i click on it.
[19:35] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: if you installed it but did not configure it then it is running
[19:36] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: ok, so is that the problem?
[19:36] <Wizzard7> antIP, that's the first hurdle. In a router, both machines would have their own addresses, I'd think you should be able to set up a network in the Network Connections area, in System, Preferences
[19:36] <ashok_shetty> hi tried installing lkl but this is the error im getting sh: Can't open ./configure
[19:36] <jrib> lorenzocabrini, drew212: note once you figure out the cause !password has step by step instructions for resetting password on an account
[19:36] <Qwert> Dr_Willis: Have you tried openDNS?
[19:36] <Wizzard7> antIP, so you are trying to get a Windows machine to talk to Ubuntu?
[19:36] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: lkl?
[19:37] <lorenzocabrini> jrib: thanks, I keep forgetting about the magical !
[19:37] <drew212> jrib: !password, doesn't do anything for me =X
[19:37] <Wizzard7> shoudl work once they can see each other
[19:38] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: is there a way i can see if someone logged into my computer from a remote point?
[19:38] <jrib> drew212: it's for ubottu
[19:38] <Tarrasch> Wizzard7, I have a similiar problem, only I use a switch, not a router, and they are cablewired, no wireless. Same cure for that?
[19:38] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Have you changed permissions of it?
[19:38] <drew212> !password
[19:38] <antIP> Wizzard7: No, I don't run windows. When I did run windows networking between an Ubuntu machine and a Windows machine was easy and automatic. Now that I'm trying to network two Ubuntu machines, it's not so easy :( I don't see any place to set up a network under Network Connections. I just see information on connecting to a network.
[19:38] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: yes, by looking at log files. look at /var/log/auth.log
[19:38]  * Qwert thinks why such nicks U-b-u-n-t-u ..
[19:38] <Wizzard7> Tarrasch, as far as I remember networking, yes, they must first be seen on the network, then it's a matter of paths
[19:39] <Roasted> Can anybody think of a way I can test TFTP on my laptop to verify it's working? I have FOG on my laptop (open source cloning software) that uses TFTP, but I'm getting a TFTP error in FOG and I'm trying to figure out if TFTP is the cause or if it's something deeper with FOG.
[19:39] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, ??
[19:39] <quiescens> lastlog is useful
[19:39] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: ??
[19:39] <Wizzard7> antIP, one sec
[19:39] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: you can do a grep ssh /var/log/auth.log
[19:39] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: ya lkl
[19:39] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: whats lkl?
[19:39] <quiescens> or last
[19:39] <diverted> my synaptic got stuck in the applying changes window.. how can i force it to quit?
[19:39] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: im assuming you've used the software from the pendrive website?
[19:40] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: it doesn't really show anything...
[19:40] <quiescens> but of course, both are fairly easy to tamper with
[19:40] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, no i hav used only unetbootin but that pendrivelinux is good tool try it
[19:40] <drew212> just server listening on 0.0.0.0 and port XX
[19:40] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: could indicate 1) nothing happened or 2) somebody cleans up when they leave
[19:41] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: yeah... how do i disable sshd?
[19:41] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: you are sure you are typing the password correctly, with the correct case?
[19:41] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: it doesnt show an option for 64bit only i386
[19:41] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: positive
[19:41] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: am i getting confused
[19:41] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: what permissions
[19:41] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, i dunno is there is any such differenciation you can install any iso
[19:41] <UltraParadigm> Is there a way to open a terminal window right from the directory that nautilus has open?
[19:42] <Qwert> drew212: I would say not to quit, wait for it more. Else try Ctrl+Tab+Esc and kill the process if you want... still not recommended// Try to repair any broken pakages, update and try again
[19:42] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: lkl keylogger software
[19:42] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: sudo update-rc.d -f sshd remove
[19:42] <antIP> Wizzard7: Yeah, no problem
[19:42] <kiehoo> 520
[19:42] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: What did you do to open configure file?
[19:42] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: i cant use sudo =X
[19:42] <drew212> lol
[19:42] <SEbbaDK> Hey anybody that can help me with a problem. i need to install a driver but it doesnt come with a .run file
[19:42] <ashok_shetty> Qwe
[19:42] <xbonesx> AbhiJit: would it just be easier to use the linux program for this?
[19:42] <Culero_> UltraParadigm: You could use a nautilus script to do that
[19:42] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: actually in ubuntu, the service script is called ssh, not sshd
[19:43] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Yeah..
[19:43] <AbhiJit> xbonesx, it doesnt matter
[19:43] <ashok_shetty> no i tried to install thru terminal but im getting that error
[19:43] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: you'll have to reset the password then.
[19:43] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: right click on it from nautilus
[19:43] <UltraParadigm> Culero_:  Thanks.  Sounds good.  Now I just have to learn how to do that.  lols
[19:43] <IStorm> Alright, I'm at my wits end. Brasero isn't detecting that I have a blank in the CD-RW drive. Where do I even begin to check? Should a blank be mounted? Is it a driver problem? I'm positive that the bios sees it.
[19:43] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: use the link that !password gave you
[19:44] <diverted> how can i quit synaptic? it got hung up while installing software and progress bar doesnt move for over 30 minutes!!
[19:44] <lorenzocabrini> you basically just need to boot up with a livecd and chroot into your primary partition.
[19:44] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: do you think someone changed it? or what?
[19:44] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Right click on the file , go to properties...
[19:44] <antIP> Wizzard7: Well, now I've got my laptop to see my shared files, but a password is required, and the password that I assume should work does not.
[19:44] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: rautilus, what is it dude
[19:44] <AbhiJit> diverted, add 'force quit' icon to your panel and click on that icon and then click on hang application
[19:44] <Culero_> UltraParadigm: check out http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/ they show you how to set it up and have such a script available
[19:44] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: well, as I said, passwords do *not* change randomly.
[19:44] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Press Alt+F2
[19:44] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: done?
[19:44] <SEbbaDK> Hey anybody that can help me with a problem. i need to install a driver but it doesnt come with a .run file
[19:45] <UltraParadigm> Culero_:  Thanks!  Checking it out
[19:45] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Type gksudo nautilus
[19:45] <Wizzard7> antIP, may want the remote's password, not the one you're on
[19:45] <diverted> AbhiJit, thanks!
[19:45] <AbhiJit> diverted, np
[19:45] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: < gksudo nautilus >
[19:45] <_Zappy__> Here is a basic question ... how do you set an environment variable in Ubuntu ?
[19:45] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: when did you notice this? and how long has the box been up?
[19:45] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: i didnt realize ssh was automatically on =X, i don't have a strong root password on my account
[19:45] <drew212> just today
[19:45] <Wizzard7> antIP, I found a webpage for networking Ubuntu, if I can figure out how to send it to you
[19:45] <drew212> recently
[19:45] <_Zappy__> I tried 'TEST=1' , but that doesn't work
[19:45] <antIP> Wizzard7: Yeah, that's the one I'm using (the remote's). Not working
[19:45] <SEbbaDK> Hey anybody that can help me with a problem. i need to install a driver but it doesnt come with a .run file
[19:45] <LordDragon> hey all
[19:45] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: autilus is file manager
[19:45] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: wait, you have a root password set?
[19:46] <IStorm> Again, thoughts on brasero writing problems?
[19:46] <antIP> Wizzard7: Just paste the link
[19:46] <LordDragon> im having some issues with my mouse settings
[19:46] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: *nautilus
[19:46] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: in that case, just use su
[19:46] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Done?
[19:46] <diverted> AbhiJit, ok, now when i want to open it again it says that another application like this or apt-get is currently running. so i cant open it
[19:46] <LordDragon> it seems the "sensitivity" control has zero affect on the movement of the pointer
[19:46] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: no i dont have one set, it was the one set with my user
[19:46] <Wizzard7> OK, I was trying not to hog the screen..  LOL
[19:46] <AbhiJit> :/
[19:46] <LordDragon> the only thing that has any effect is "accerlation"
[19:46] <Wizzard7> antIP, http://www.debianadmin.com/ubuntu-networking-for-basic-and-advanced-users.html
[19:46] <AbhiJit> diverted, sudo dpkg --configure -a
[19:46] <diverted> i have no open terminals with apt-get or anything
[19:46] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: as a matter of habit, always use a strong password
[19:46] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: no tell me from first i didt get u properly
[19:46] <SEbbaDK> hey i need to install a driver but it doesn't have a .run file???
[19:47] <AbhiJit> diverted, open the terminal and thype that
[19:47] <diverted> AbhiJit,  dpkg: status database area is locked by another process
[19:47] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Press Alt+F2 or got to terminal
[19:47] <_Zappy__> Can anyone help me with setting  environment variables ?
[19:47] <Qwert> diverted, log out and log in
[19:47] <lorenzocabrini> drew212: we recently had two trixbox servers broken into at work, both with weak passwords
[19:47] <diverted> ok

[19:47] <eross1> someone has to know what this issue is. when using a logic wireless optical mouse, in a 3d program or game such as blender and steel storm, if i hit the middle mouse button and rotate, it can lock up and force me to reboot.

[19:56] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Now, rigt click it
[19:56] <alkisg> Roasted: then install tftp-hpa (the client) on that same system
[19:56] <diverted> andycc, is that safe?
[19:56] <MaximLevitsky> peppy_: just install pidgin, every time I use empathy, I came to same conclusion. It sucks, and therefore is default
[19:57] <diverted> andycc, i dont know anything about locks
[19:57] <andycc> diverted: if apt/synaptic isn't running, it should be safe.
[19:57] <alkisg> Roasted: you can also just run `status tftpd-hpa`
[19:57] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: k then
[19:57] <andycc> diverted: try a sudo killall apt-get first
[19:57] <Qwert> diverted: What other applications are running?
[19:57] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Go to propertied
[19:57] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: *properties
[19:57] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: k then
[19:57] <Roasted> alkisg, I got a stop/waiting error. Could I just run sudo tftp-hpa start?
[19:58] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: >Permissions> click executable check box
[19:58] <alkisg> Roasted: sudo start tftpd-hpa
[19:58] <diverted> Qwert, according to system monitor?
[19:58] <Roasted> alkisg, thanks bro
[19:58] <antIP> Wizzard7: That video shows how to share files between Ubuntu and Windows.
[19:58] <Qwert> diverted: Is synaptic open?
[19:58] <Wizzard7> abtIP< so far I am batting 0
[19:58] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: ok i clicked
[19:59] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Save it
[19:59] <edbian> antIP, What's the problem?
[19:59] <diverted> Qwert, no because i cant open it
[19:59] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Go to terminal
[19:59] <diverted> Qwert, update notifier is open
[19:59] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: it should br selected or what
[19:59] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: that executable file
[19:59] <diverted> Qwert, i ended it but still cant open synaptic
[19:59] <Qwert> diverted: pastebin sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a
[20:00] <antIP> Wizzard7: Looks like the only problem I'm having now is that my password for the shared directory isn't working.
[20:00] <area51pilot> my default message indicator applet went away...how do i re-enable or re-install?
[20:00] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Yes
[20:00] <soby> realtek driver bug ......http://paste.ubuntu.com/499278/ ....any suggestions?
[20:00] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: did that
[20:00] <antIP> edbian: I'm trying to access shared directories on my Desktop from my Laptop.
[20:01] <Wizzard7> antIP, sorry, don't think I can help with password problems.  :)
[20:01] <edbian> antIP, all linux?
[20:01] <Qwert> diverted: pastebin <sudo dpkg --configure -a> only
[20:01] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: okay
[20:01] <antIP> edbian: I can see the shared directories and when I click on them it prompts me for a password. I enter my password (the one on the host machine) and the same window (asking me for my passowrd) keeps popping up.
[20:01] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Now go to terminal
[20:02] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: ya im thier
[20:02] <Wizzard7> antIP, have you tried it without entering anything, leaving it blank??
[20:02] <diverted> Qwert, with first command it asked me to kill process dpkg
[20:02] <antIP> Wizzard7: Yeah, it didn't wokr
[20:02] <Wizzard7> may not have one set yet
[20:02] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: use cd to go to the folder containing the file
[20:02] <Wizzard7> ok, just a thought
[20:02] <Qwert> diverted: Yes do that
[20:02] <diverted> Qwert, ok
[20:02] <diverted> Qwert, lol cant
[20:02] <UltraParadigm> Culero_:  Thanks!  It works like a charm!  I will save me tons of time and frustration when needing to open the terminal in locaitons like ~/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_3.5.0_155965261/plugins
[20:03] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: ok then
[20:03] <Qwert> diverted: What does second shows?
[20:03] <BluesKaj> antIP, it may be asking for your pw on the machine you'ere using first then the the shares after
[20:03] <Culero_> UltraParadigm: no prob. :)
[20:03] <besogon> antIP: Are you trying to share folder with Samba?
[20:03] <diverted> same as when i choose yes to first one
[20:03] <diverted> sec i pastebin
[20:03] <Wizzard7> antIP,  seems like it has to be the password for one machine or the other, do you have a separate admin passwrod fron user password?
[20:03] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Are you in the teminal with the folder directory containing the file?
[20:03] <diverted> Qwert, sec i pastebin
[20:03] <antIP> BluesKaj: Hmm. Interesting, I'll try that I guess.
[20:03] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Whats the file name?
[20:03] <diverted> Qwert, http://pastebin.com/UDbBCHd6
[20:04] <mkquist> antIP: how did you set up the shares?
[20:04] <antIP> BluesKaj: No, that's not it either.
[20:04] <sm> g'day all. How do I make thunderbird 3.1's startup shell script appear as an executable in the.. application starting thing ? If I drag it from nautilus, it appears in Favorites but just opens an editor
[20:04] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: lkl
[20:04] <diverted> Qwert, second one showed the same as when i chose yes to first one
[20:04] <antIP> besogon: I'm not using samba for sharing the folder. SHould I be?
[20:04] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: < ./configure >
[20:04] <mkquist> antIP: you can just set up guest shares, that dont require account/pass
[20:04] <Wizzard7> abtIP, I'd try it, can't be nuch worse than what you have now..  LOL
[20:04] <antIP> Wizzard7: No I don't have separate passwords set up.
[20:05] <BluesKaj> antIP, are you sure you have the folder/dir on the target machine "shared"?
[20:05] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: no such file or directory im getting as error
[20:05] <Qwert> diverted: Aye,, i told to use < sudo dpkg --configure -a > only
[20:05] <besogon> antIP: How do you share it then? Using Nautilus?
[20:05] <diverted> Qwert, yes, so just imagine the last line of the msg log
[20:05] <diverted> Qwert, thats what i got from second command
[20:05] <besogon> antIP: or 'personal-file-sharing' tool
[20:06] <Leo145> Hi Everybody!
[20:06] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: How is that possible? Are you sure you are in the same folder containing the .configure file. Use < ls > to ckeck the file
[20:06] <Wizzard7> Hi, Leo
[20:06] <antIP> mkquist: I just right clicked on the directory and selected 'properties' -> 'share'
[20:06] <Qwert> diverted: Alright, i repeat from start
[20:06] <antIP> mkquist: ok. is that option secure for the most part?
[20:06] <mkquist> antIP: you have the option so set it as a guest share... no password required check it out
[20:06] <Qwert> diverted: Please log out and come back
[20:06] <antIP> BluesKaj: Yeah, it's share for sure.
[20:06] <mkquist> antIP: secure in what way?
[20:07] <BluesKaj> antIP, make sure you have permissions checked as well
[20:07] <antIP> besogon: right click on the directory and go to options -> share
[20:07] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: wrking dude
[20:07] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Done??
[20:07] <antIP> mkquist: Yeah, I saw that. I just figured it was less secure and I don't ming using a password. I don't understand why the password wouldn't work.
[20:08] <Wizzard7> antIP, are you meaning secure as far as the wireless part of your networking?
[20:08] <mkquist> antIP: you need to provide the account/password that exists on the hosting machine
[20:08] <Qwert> diverted: < sudo dpkg --configure -a >
[20:08] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: ya done
[20:08] <mkquist> antIP: the other option allows anyone on your network to access the shares... the guest that is
[20:08] <antIP> mkquist: "Secure it what way?" Good question. If someone get's onto my network somehow. Then again, if they can get onto my network, I'm sure there's nothing stopping them from getting into my comps.
[20:08] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: give me few min will get back to u
[20:08] <MattNeedsHelp> Hey, did anything change in 10.4 server from 9.10 that wouldn't allow me to automatically login to a user when the system boots to the console?
[20:09] <diverted> Qwert, http://pastebin.com/4RHnWEvn
[20:09] <edbian> antIP, If others can get on your network then they can mess with the contents of that file.  If your network is secure then the file is secure.  Is that clear?
[20:09] <sculptured> how do i safely add an alias to my bash.bashrc?
[20:09] <antIP> mkquist: Yeah, I know. I am providing that account and password It's still not working.
[20:09] <Wizzard7> antIP, you do have a WEP Key set on the wireless?
[20:09] <andycc> sculptured: add "alias <alias>='<command>'" to your ~/.bashrc
[20:09] <antIP> mkquist: Well, I'll probably just do the guest.
[20:09] <besogon> antIP: I don't know how exactly nautilus share folder with samba (I gess it uses usershare feature) but you can share folder with describe of it in smb.conf file
[20:09] <diverted> Qwert, maybe a restart helps?
[20:09] <mkquist> antIP: like "account@machine" then password
[20:09] <andycc> sculptured: it's not that hard.
[20:09] <antIP> edbian: Yeah, that's makes sense. ;)
[20:10] <Wizzard7> I have wireless from my gateway device, it is secured with WEP key, no sense letting my neighbor's use my connection... :)
[20:10] <Qwert> diverted: Well, i guess. But if your are planning to restart, thn from recovry mode repair broken pakages as well
[20:10] <besogon> antIP: Its not best decision but works better for me
[20:10] <Qwert> diverted: *recovery mode
[20:10] <edbian> antIP, Additionally.  Just because someone got on your network does not mean they can get into your systems.  For example they may know how to crack wep or even wpa2 but that doesn't mean they can crack your linux passwords (as of right now there is no way)
[20:10] <andycc> Wizzard7: WEP is useless. Crackable in no time. Happened to me twice.
[20:11] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: i installed it tell me how to run it now
[20:11] <antIP> edbian: the funny thing is that the network is showing up as "Windows Network" and my PC is under "Workgroup" -- Why is it using Microsoft terminology?
[20:11] <andycc> edbian: unless you're using Windows.
[20:11] <Qwert> diverted: Try repairing broken packages and come back
[20:11] <sculptured> andycc: i see, i didnt realize there isn't a .bashrc by default and that had me confused. thanks
[20:11] <mkquist> antIP: are you providing the username@hostmachine?
[20:11] <LeMisanthrope> Help my Keyboard stopped working gradually. When 10.04 was new everything worked. Then I patched and it stopped working in GRUB bootloader and now I patched again and I can't do anything. HELP
[20:11] <alaing> I've install lampp and want it to start automatically. at the moment I have to go into the terminal and type sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start
[20:11] <diverted> Qwert, k
[20:11] <edbian> antIP, Because samba is microsoft's file and printer sharing stack.  Linux uses NFS
[20:11] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Whats the installation directory name?
[20:11] <alaing> Wizzard7: use wpa
[20:11] <edbian> andycc, I said linux :)
[20:11] <antIP> edbian: well, theoretically they could do a brute force attack.
[20:11] <andycc> sculptured: there isn't? I wasn't aware. I use ZSH.
[20:11] <BluesKaj> Wizzard7, wep isn't the most secure , if you can configure your router to do wpa2-psk , then you'd be much more secure .
[20:12] <Wizzard7> alaing, I will, thanks
[20:12] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Well for what did you install keylogger?
[20:12] <edbian> antIP, Yeah, how long are they on your network?  They don't even know how long your password is!
[20:12] <antIP> edbian: But I didn't share the files using Samba. At least, that's not the option I chose when I shared the directory.
[20:12] <sculptured> andycc: eh, apparently there is, but it's hidden
[20:12] <Wizzard7> BluesKaj, thanks
[20:12] <edbian> antIP, What if your password is 8 characters long?  that's 8^58 different combinations of characters just counting numbers and letters
[20:12] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: how to check the installation file
[20:12] <andycc> sculptured: well, it's called .bashrc. With the ".".
[20:13] <edbian> antIP, Did you right click and choose share?  That's samba at work.
[20:13] <andycc> "." means it's hidden.
[20:13] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Hold on ... for what did you install keylogger??
[20:13] <scriptwarlock> anyone knows how to force uninstall an apps in lucid?
[20:13] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: just for fun and curious to knowhow it works
[20:13] <edbian> antIP, Setting up nfs takes a little more config (but is simply and easier in my opinion) windows pc's dont' speak NFS though.
[20:13] <antIP> edbian: http://howsecureismypassword.net/
[20:13] <sculptured> andycc: i found it, thank you.
[20:13] <Wizzard7> is WPA-PSK (TKIP) ok for security>?
[20:13] <rewati> hi what is the current version of netbook ubuntu
[20:14] <andycc> rewati: 10.04
[20:14] <BluesKaj> scriptwarlock, it depends how you installed it
[20:14] <Wizzard7> I think it has WPA2 also
[20:14] <antIP> edbian: IS there a tutorial for that (NFS)?
[20:14] <abstrakt> export PS1='\n\[\033[30;1m\][\[\033[34;1m\]\@\[\033[30;1m\]]\[\033[m\]-\[\033[30;1m\][\[\033[33;1m\]\!\[\033[30;1m\]]\[\033[m\]-\[\033[30;1m\][\[\033[32;1m\]\u@\H\[\033[30;1m\]]\[\033[m\]-\[\033[30;1m\][\[\033[35;1m\]\w\[\033[30;1m\]]\n\[\033[m\]\$ '
[20:14] <edbian> antIP, You're talking to it!
[20:14] <ashok_shetty> Qwert:surely not for destructive purpose
[20:14] <andycc> Wizzard7: as I understand, WPA is deprecated and you should really use WPA2.
[20:14] <abstrakt> for anyone who's interested... purty colors :)
[20:14] <rewati> andycc: for desktop its 10.10 right ???
[20:14] <antIP> haha.
[20:14] <antIP> edbian. ha
[20:14] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: i installed it correctly but then after i uninstall i got some errors
[20:14] <scriptwarlock> on dpkg
[20:14] <edbian> antIP, Just kidding.  ha ah ha.  An extensive one.
[20:14] <andycc> rewati: no. Not until late October.
[20:14] <edbian> antIP, http://nfs.sourceforge.net/nfs-howto/
[20:15] <rewati> ok
[20:15] <andycc> !maverick | rewati
[20:15]  * Qwert is laughing
[20:15] <andycc> hmm.
[20:15] <abstrakt> leeter version here http://pastie.org/1177463
[20:15] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: ru thhhhhhhhhhier
[20:15] <rewati> andycc: but i have upgraded to 10.10 and its 10.10 on my system
[20:15] <asgw> popey, the option to resize the extended partition is greyed out.
[20:15] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Yeah..
[20:15] <Wizzard7> andycc, ok I changed it to WPA2-PSK
[20:15] <Wizzard7> thanks
[20:15] <alaing> I've install lampp and want it to start automatically. at the moment I have to go into the terminal and type sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start
[20:15] <Qwert> rewati: Whats the problem?
[20:16] <edbian> antIP, It's basically 3 steps.  Install nfs-kernel-server, edit the /etc/exports file, install nfs on the client
[20:16] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: ow to run it
[20:16] <Qwert> rewati: #ubuntu+1
[20:16] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: how torun it
[20:16] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: heres ny error maybe you can help http://paste.ubuntu.com/499287/
[20:16] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: ok don;t type agin
[20:16] <andycc> rewati: 10.10 is (relatively) unstable, and usability issues may appear.
[20:16] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: ya sure
[20:16] <billif_ze> hi!
[20:16] <andycc> but yes, #ubuntu+1
[20:16] <Qwert> ashok_shetty: Did you see where it was installing?
[20:16] <rewati> Qwert: i want to download ubuntu for my new netbook so i want the latest i went site it shows 10.04 but on my current system its 10.10
[20:16] <BluesKaj> scriptwarlock, in the terminal sudo dpkg -r nameofpackage
[20:17] <rewati> andycc: oh ok thanks
[20:17] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: same
[20:17] <maco> rewati: 10.10 is the version being released in two weeks. discussion of it is in #ubuntu+1
[20:17] <Wizzard7> rewati, 10.10 is still Beta, I believe
[20:17] <Qwert> rewati: What do you want? Lucid or maverick?
[20:17] <antIP> edbian: I set up the sharing for guests (not requiring password) so I'm set for now. But I'll read about NFS. I do very little sharing over the network, but it's a enough to need a consistent sharing technique.
[20:17] <Qwert> rewati:
[20:17] <edbian> antIP, NFS is great for linux.  You have to use samba if you mix windows and linux though.
[20:18] <Wizzard7> edbian, do you mean NTFS?
[20:18] <besogon> antIP: install system-config-samba package
[20:18] <ashok_shetty> Qwert: /usr/local/bin
[20:18] <rewati> Qwert: what is the main difference between them can provide me any link for that
[20:18] <BluesKaj> scriptwarlock,   sudo dpkg --clear-avail
[20:18] <Qwert> rewati: I'd recommend Lucid Lynx 10.04
[20:18] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: actuall i install this thru dpkg
[20:18] <Wizzard7> ok, never mind, I remember now
[20:18] <antIP> edbian: Yeah, I don't use windows anymore.
[20:18] <rewati> Qwert: ok thanks
[20:18] <edbian> antIP, Ubuntu can be many many servers: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Servers
[20:18] <edbian> Wizzard7, No, I meant NFS.  Network File System
[20:18] <billif_ze> Because of chromium and also chrome browsers has a feature to running of different processes i can not use with them AllTray application. Can someone give me a command to solve it temporary ?
[20:18] <alaing> what do i need to do so that I can run sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start when my servers boots?
[20:18] <BluesKaj> scriptwarlock, yes so you must remove using dpkg
[20:18] <Wizzard7> I remembered right after I hit Enter
[20:19] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: i mean gdebi
[20:19] <besogon> antIP: and remember the directory you share must have appropriate permissions
[20:19] <andycc> billif_ze: isn't there an extension for that? Kind of like AllTray for FF?
[20:19] <antIP> edbian: I plan on setting up a server in the next few months. I have a lot to learn about networking. I'd like to get me network+ someday.
[20:19] <andycc> s/AllTray/MinimizeToTray
[20:19] <mestar> Hey people. thinking of getting a external HDD to back my stuff up on, will this work on ubuntu?
[20:19] <mestar> http://www.ebuyer.com/product/136212
[20:19] <edbian> antIP, :)
[20:20] <antIP> besogon: what are you refering to? NFS/SAMBA?
[20:20] <BluesKaj> scriptwarlock, yrs , dpkg is the sme when it comes to removal
[20:20] <edbian> mestar, Yes
[20:20] <andycc> mestar: it
[20:20] <edbian> mestar, I don't even have to look at it.
[20:20] <besogon> antIP: SAMBA
[20:20] <antIP> besogon: ok.
[20:20] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: yeah ok, but still the same
[20:20] <andycc> *'s an external HDD. Of course it works.
[20:20] <mestar> edbian it says it requires windows to run so just curious
[20:20] <aeon-ltd> mestar: uhh hard drives are amiguous, unlike graphics cards that require drivers
[20:20]  * BluesKaj puts on his glasses
[20:20] <mestar> Ahh good
[20:20] <asgw> popey, ah, had to apply the deletion of the swap, works now :)
[20:20] <Wizzard7> Thanks for all the help, folks.. Have a nice day, see you next time.......
[20:20] <antIP> besogon edbian - I've got it worked out for now. i've got to get busy on some other stuff. Thanks.
[20:20] <edbian> mestar, They put that all over stuff.  Really drives me nuts.  Your monitor most certainly doesn't need windows to run either but they have no problem stamping their stupid stickers on it
[20:20] <BluesKaj> scriptwarlock,   did you try , sudo dpkg --clear-avail
[20:21] <edbian> antIP, Yep!  Anytime
[20:21] <mestar> Yeah edbian, but better safe than sorry eh?
[20:21] <Qwert> rewati:  You need notebook edition?
[20:21] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: yeah
[20:21] <billif_ze> andycc: ohhh yes.. i havent look for that.. i just look alltray threads... thanks to remember that...
[20:21] <besogon> antIP: NFS only for servers and clients wich work with linux. To tell you the truth, SAMBA 3 has some disadvantages.
[20:21] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: still the same
[20:21] <mestar> I WAS thinking of formatting my internal harddrive and installin ubuntu because I have not used windows for ages, then I realised I have a windows only wireless dongle...
[20:21] <edbian> mestar, I suppose...
[20:21] <mestar> Anyway, cheers for the help edbian
[20:21] <rewati> Qwert: I need netbook edition
[20:22] <MattNeedsHelp> Hey does anyone know why my normal method of automatically logging in isn't working in 10.4??  In 9.10 I'd just add a /bin/login statement to /etc/init/tty1.conf and that worked fine, but something changed in 10.4 and it doesn't work anymore.
[20:22] <BluesKaj> scriptwarlock, the same as the pastebin ?
[20:22] <Qwert> rewati: Have you tried ubuntu before?
[20:22] <rewati> yeah
[20:22] <andycc> MattNeedsHelp: you should use /etc/inittab for that.
[20:22] <besogon> antIP: eg. it can't be a controler of domen AD. (It can do only SAMBA4 wich is under development now) and
[20:22] <edbian> mestar, Those things are a pain with linux
[20:22] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: some error during reinstallation: the package might be corrupted or you are not alowed to open the file. check the permisison of the file.. same as pastebin
[20:22] <rewati> i have been using it for 5 year now its my only os
[20:22] <mestar> Yeah edbian, I got one free with my phone and was planning on buying one
[20:22] <andycc> MattNeedsHelp: and a Py/C program to login. There are tutorials.
[20:22] <rewati> Qwert: i have been using it for 5 year now its my only os
[20:23] <mestar> Are any wireless dongles Linux Supported?
[20:23] <erUSUL> mestar: a lot of them
[20:23] <erUSUL> !hcl > mestar
[20:23] <MattNeedsHelp> Thanks andycc, I'll look into that
[20:23] <edbian> mestar, Some are.  I can't tell you which are.  I don't have any
[20:23] <Qwert> rewati: http://www.ubuntu.com/netbook
[20:23] <mestar> Ahh cheers erUSUL
[20:23] <rewati> yeah
[20:23] <Qwert> rewati: http://www.ubuntu.com/netbook/get-ubuntu/download
[20:24] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: ok, well my primary HDD isn't showing up anymore =P
[20:24] <rewati> Qwert: i got it its already on download thanks though
[20:24] <besogon> antIP: Samba3 as WINS server don't understand replications from WINS Windows server. You should use samba4wins in pair with samba 3 to make it works
[20:24] <drew212> lorenzocabrini: im on my netbook now
[20:24] <mestar> And edbian, yeah, I used one on holiday that I borrowed, I spent about £5 on the dongle's wireless, would have spent £20 for a weekend in the hotels wifi
[20:24] <Qwert> rewati: Its <ubuntu-10.04-netbook-i386.iso>
[20:24] <Qwert> rewati: huh?
[20:24] <mestar> They are amazing things, but the only thing thats stopping my wiping windows 7 off my computer =/
[20:24] <fishcooker> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/HRG0nFhR
[20:25] <fishcooker> anyone
[20:25] <andycc> mestar: a lot of them. But make sure to check.
[20:25] <rewati> Qwert: yup
[20:25] <Qwert> rewati: What?
[20:25] <fishcooker> ?!
[20:25] <mestar> Yeah andycc, I am planning on looking for a nice one for under £20
[20:25] <rewati> Qwert: its ubuntu-10.04-netbook-i386.iso
[20:25] <aliverius> what subnet mask do i have to use in /etc/network/interfaces to ifup an interface with no ip? i suppose the address must be 0.0.0.0
[20:25] <Karen_m> my sound is gone *again*.
[20:25] <Qwert> rewati: Yeah
[20:25] <rewati> Qwert: it will run on atom right
[20:25] <antIP> besogon: mmm. Well I don't run windows anymore. I'm trying to stay as far away from it as I can get.
[20:26] <Qwert> rewati: That's what you need right? Yes it will... which notebook?
[20:26] <benovic> is it just me or do more ubunteers experience gnome freezing windows a lot since 1 or 2 days ago?
[20:26] <edbian> aliverius, Why ifup that interface at all?  What is the difference if it has no IP?
[20:26] <fishcooker> what happen with my /media/doc
[20:26] <ikonia> benovic: just you
[20:26] <zubergeek> mestar: http://www.linuxemporium.co.uk/products/wireless/
[20:26] <rewati> Qwert: lenovo atom 455
[20:26] <venik> Lyx files normally open Lyx, but in SOME FOLDERS (but not others) I am asked what to do with a lyx file (display, run, etc.)  How do I fix it?  I tried the properties, but it did not cure the problem
[20:26] <fishcooker> it works well on other box
[20:26] <mestar> zubergeek you legend =D
[20:26] <benovic> ikonia, oh noes :(
[20:27] <zubergeek> :)
[20:27] <aliverius> edbian: i want it to be uped at boot
[20:27] <carandraug> how can I run a sudo command with a ">" on it? sudo echo something > /file/I/need?permissions/to/write I've tried to enclose the whole command with quotes but nothing
[20:27] <besogon> antIP: also I find on Samba wiki that win7 can't be a client of samba3 server without changing the reestr.
[20:27] <zubergeek> it might require some 'tweaking', but at the end of the day, with linux, you get out what you put in :)
[20:27] <edbian> aliverius, But for what?  It doesn't have an IP so it can't communicate with others?  Just leave it down
[20:27] <hall1352> AUGUST
[20:27] <Qwert> rewati: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Netbooks
[20:27] <mestar> Oh and edbian, quick last question. Would there be any downside to formatting my internal HDD and installing ubuntu on it? I am thinking it would make life a lot easier for me (if I found the dongle =P) if my files were all backed up.
[20:27] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: any ideas?
[20:28] <aeon-ltd> carandraug: you enclose the echo part only (the whole sudo "echo > whateverpathfile")
[20:28] <aliverius> edbian: to create a bridge for qemu
[20:28] <mestar> I am wondering if it could screw my computer up is all.
[20:28] <edbian> mestar, I see no downside.
[20:28] <hall1352> AUGUST
[20:28] <edbian> mestar, What is your current set up?
[20:28] <judis003> will you a ho
[20:28] <edbian> aliverius, Then the interface must have an IP address.
[20:28] <hall1352> LETS START AN INTRAMURAL TEAM
[20:28] <HexLaTor> fishcooker, just type: LANG=en_US.UTF-8
[20:28] <hall1352> ONLY IT GUYS
[20:28] <judis003> of what
[20:28] <FloodBot4> hall1352: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[20:28] <mestar> edbian, Windows 7 with ubuntu on a sepperate partition
[20:28] <aeon-ltd> !ot | hall1352
[20:28] <hall1352> IT WILL BE CALLED NBA L33T
[20:28] <ikonia> hall1352: please stop that
[20:28] <besogon> antIP: here it was http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Main_Page
[20:28] <fishcooker> thanks for quick response hexlator
[20:28] <aeon-ltd> !ops | hall1352
[20:29] <Qwert> hall1352: Stop that
[20:29] <mestar> But I would rather get rid of windows for conviences sake ed
[20:29] <HexLaTor> fishcooker,that works ?
[20:29] <fishcooker> what should i do hexlator
[20:29] <edbian> mestar, I don't see the downside of using linux exclusively :)
[20:29] <fishcooker> mount manually
[20:29] <scriptwarlock> anyone else has idea for this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/499287/
[20:29] <fishcooker> with option
[20:29] <carandraug> aeon-ltd, I don't want write the output of echo into the file. That only echoes to my STDOUT, the terminal
[20:29] <HexLaTor> fishcooker, type: LANG=en_US.UTF-8
[20:29] <mestar> Lol edbian, I got warned by the people here how I may need windows
[20:29] <edbian> mestar, You don't have to reinstall.  Boot a live CD and simply re-arrange the existing partitions so that the windows 7 one is gone and the linux one is expanded.  You might have to fix grub though.
[20:29] <besogon> antIP: also I know about a "bag" with samba in ubuntu 10.04 (at least in Desktop versions)
[20:29] <mestar> I honestly have not used it at all really
[20:30] <ikonia> scriptwarlock: where did you get that package
[20:30] <mestar> And edbian fixed grub twice mate
[20:30] <aeon-ltd> carandraug: please explain (to the channel) in more detail
[20:30] <besogon> antIP: Samba starts before CUPS
[20:30] <edbian> mestar, I've been windows free for 2 years.  It depends entirely on the person.
[20:30] <edbian> mestar, Sounds to me like you're golden.
[20:30] <scriptwarlock> ikonia: somewhere from eee
[20:30] <venik> Lyx files normally open Lyx, but in SOME FOLDERS (but not others) I am asked what to do with a lyx file (display, run, etc.) How do I fix it? I tried the properties, but it did not cure the problem
[20:30] <xbonesx> i need to edit the grub on my flash drive can someone help me with this?
[20:30] <mestar> Yeah edbian, I am excited about going windows free
[20:30] <scriptwarlock> ikonia: got the hardest app to remove
[20:30] <fishcooker> scriptwarlock
[20:30] <edbian> mestar, You should be!  It's a great feeling :D
[20:30] <venik> I am running ubuntu 10.04/gnome
[20:30] <fishcooker> get purge option
[20:30] <ikonia> scriptwarlock: ok, contact them as either a.) their remove script is messed up, or b.) someones deleted the python script it needs
[20:30] <besogon> antIP: so when you make some changes of your smb.conf you don't see any printers
[20:31] <mestar> Yeah, I had not heard of linux 6 months ago edbian mate
[20:31] <fishcooker> ok hexlator i will try it
[20:31] <ikonia> mestar: edbian maybe you coul take this to #ubuntu-offtopic please ?
[20:31] <aliverius> edbian: so is it impossible to choose a netmask for an address like 0.0.0.0? cause i was adviced on #qemu to use that address
[20:31] <mestar> Can't honestly see how I lived with it considering I am using a netbook mate
[20:31] <edbian> mestar, That's how long it took me to make the switch
[20:31] <edbian> ikonia, sorry :P
[20:31] <ikonia> edbian: not a problem
[20:31] <Name141> does anyone know if ubuntu-server will install desktops? Or will I have to start over from a desktop version of ubuntu ?
[20:31] <mestar> Yeah sorry ikonia mate
[20:31] <scriptwarlock> ikonia: any manual method? like deleteing some files?
[20:31] <edbian> aliverius, My guess would be 0.0.0.0 or 255.255.255.255
[20:31] <besogon> antIP: I told you that only to make your life easier.
[20:31] <ikonia> Name141: you can insall desktops, no problem
[20:31] <ikonia> scriptwarlock: you really don't want to do deleting files
[20:31] <edbian> Name141, Ubuntu server does not come with a desktop by default
[20:32] <aeon-ltd> Name141: in ubuntu server there is no graphical interface, however you can install them easily
[20:32] <mestar> Anyway edbian, cheers for the help mate
[20:32] <carandraug> aeon-ltd, I want to write the line of text "RailsBaseURI /tracks" to the file /etc/apache2/conf.d/tracks. I would do it as echo "RailsBaseURI /tracks" > /etc/apache2/conf.d/tracks  If I simply add sudo before the command I get permission denied
[20:32] <Name141> correct.
[20:32] <edbian> mestar, Yep!
[20:32] <Name141> I assume lxde is the most lightweight?
[20:32] <mestar> Going to sell these 2 dongles on eBay most likely and use the money to buy a linux supported one
[20:32] <zubergeek> ikonia: what exactly is this channel for?
[20:32] <scriptwarlock> ikonia: well actuall the error is just inside the bin/dpkg
[20:32] <fishcooker> globus@earth:/media/doc$ LANG=en_US.UTF-8
[20:32] <fishcooker> globus@earth:/media/doc$ ls
[20:32] <fishcooker> ls: reading directory .: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character
[20:32] <mestar> everyone wins apart from my windows 7 install =D.
[20:32] <antIP> besogon: Oh, I see.
[20:32] <mestar> Peace
[20:32] <fishcooker> hexlator
[20:32] <ikonia> scriptwarlock: no, it's because a.) the remove script from the package is broke b.) someone has removed the python script it wants to call
[20:32] <ikonia> scriptwarlock: it's nothing to do with dpkg
[20:32] <aeon-ltd> carandraug: why not just do "sudo -s" before hand to get root access then do it?
[20:32] <HexLaTor> fishcooker, yes ?
[20:33] <scriptwarlock> ikonia: ah ok thanks
[20:33] <Name141> Or should I install xubuntu-desktop ?
[20:33] <ikonia> Name141: it's up to you what desktop you use
[20:33] <MarderIII> Name41: there are more lightweigth windows managers, but you dont want them
[20:33] <andycc> Name141: I recommend Openbox.
[20:33] <carandraug> aeon-ltd, I usually just edit the file with a text editor. I just wanted to have it ina single command to make it simpler (I'm writing an Howto)
[20:34] <Name141> andycc: will it all install what it needs just like xubuntu-desktop would ?
[20:34] <aeon-ltd> Name141: yeah openbox +1, lxde is openbox with a panel (lxpanel)
[20:34] <andycc> Name141: no, openbox is just the WM. You're basically creating your desktop from scratch.
[20:35] <besogon> antIP: the 'bag' I told you can treat just editing your rc.local file (write here smbcontral all reload-config). Or you can edit start up scripts for nmbd and smbd daenoms
[20:35] <Name141> :-|
[20:35] <fishcooker> still the same
[20:35] <andycc> Name141: if you want a lightweight desktop, try lubuntu-desktop
[20:35] <blindMoe> for some reason when I start X as a certain user either gdm or ubuntu-desktop is not starting and I am just stuck with a desktop background and no menu's.  The desktop icons are there but I cannot click on them.  I have tried reinstalling xorg, gdm and ubuntu-desktop.  It works fine if I start X with a different user though
[20:35] <andycc> !info lubuntu-desktop
[20:35] <aeon-ltd> carandraug: just checking are you sure 'sudo 'echo RailsBaseURI/tracks > /etc/apache2/conf.d/tracks' doesn't work? (please double check the quotes)
[20:35] <MarderIII> Name41: or evilwm :-)
[20:35] <blindMoe> is there a specific configuration file that I can delete for that user to reset the settings?
[20:35] <HexLaTor> thought that was ur problem...no other idea for now...good lucl
[20:35] <HexLaTor> luck*
[20:35] <Name141> I just want something so I can run SNES ROMs
[20:36] <MarderIII> Name41: on xmame?
[20:36] <slooksterpsv> phew, having to reformat; beta upgrades killed my network connection
[20:36] <ikonia> Name141: that's nothing to do with the deskop, you just need zsnes
[20:36] <cemc> hi. I have a 9.10 with an usb printer installed. I would like to print on that from another 10.04. what do I do with cups to get it working?
[20:36] <MattNeedsHelp> andycc: I found what you mentioned but it doesn't seem to be working in 10.4
[20:36] <Name141> ikonia: I can run zsnes in the terminal ?
[20:36] <ikonia> Name141: no
[20:36] <andycc> MattNeedsHelp: /msg me the link.
[20:36] <aeon-ltd> Name141: but to save on resources (if you were only going to run the emulator) i reccommend a tiling wm
[20:37] <slooksterpsv> techbreak, is it working for ya?
[20:37] <Name141> :-\
[20:37] <andycc> Name141: like Awesome.
[20:37] <andycc> Name141: or Musca. Or even dwm if you're feeling crazy.
[20:37] <techbreak> slooksterpsv, yeah :)
[20:37] <techbreak> slooksterpsv, thanks :)
[20:37] <alaing> how do i add sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start when my server boots?
[20:37] <aeon-ltd> andycc: dwm's crazy?
[20:37] <slooksterpsv> techbreak, awesome, I'm on the web irc while I reinstall lol
[20:37] <gooms> channel
[20:37] <techbreak> slooksterpsv, chao
[20:38] <jrib> alaing: why aren't you using lamp from the repositories?
[20:38] <Name141> andycc: I just want something that'll be lightweight, run good, and not turn out to be huge like ubuntu desktop edition
[20:38] <slooksterpsv> techbreak, you take care
[20:38] <andycc> aeon-ltd: dwm is configured at compile time.
[20:38] <alaing> because I wanted to use lamp from Apachefriends
[20:38] <aeon-ltd> Name141: what spec pc is this? also is it only going to be a emulator?
[20:38] <jrib> !lamp | alaing
[20:38] <andycc> Name141: then go with Fluxbox or Openbox.
[20:38] <someprimetime> what is the most absurd way to pay a parking ticket for $27?
[20:38] <antIP> edbian: do you know how to find my shared folders through the root directory? I'm curious. I don't see them in media or dev....
[20:38] <Culero_> pennies?
[20:38] <aeon-ltd> andycc: meh, i haven't recompiled in months :)
[20:38] <mkquist> someprimetime: pennnies?
[20:38] <carandraug> aeon-ltd, yes http://pastebin.com/PenAxx1n
[20:38] <techbreak> slooksterpsv, gotta nap now.. good night.. thanks again. take care
[20:39] <slooksterpsv> someprimetime, in all pennies lol
[20:39] <alaing> jrib I know you can set them up individually but i like it all packaged
[20:39] <Name141> aeon-ltd: It'll be a 'networked hard drive' too. Like install EXE's and stuff.
[20:39] <Name141> aeon-ltd: Pentium2, 10GB
[20:39] <fishcooker> thanks hexlator :D
[20:39] <mkquist> someprimetime: 27 $1.00 checks?
[20:40] <jrib> alaing: it's a much better idea to use the repositories.  For one, you get automatic security updates
[20:40] <someprimetime> hm pennies is good ... mkquist  that is exactly what i was thinking
[20:40] <someprimetime> with 27 different evelopes
[20:40] <someprimetime> envelopes rather
[20:40] <jrib> !ot | someprimetime
[20:40] <aeon-ltd> Name141: your going to need lighter than ubuntu, i reccommend debian linux mint, crucnhbang, i586 archlinux or i586 crux linux for maximium lightness
[20:40] <someprimetime> ok sorry ubottu
[20:40] <alaing> jrib yes but dont the other downloads haveperformance enhancements
[20:40] <ikonia> aeon-ltd: why are they lighter ?
[20:41] <MarderIII> Name41: take a look at Puppy linux maybe
[20:41] <Name141> aeon-ltd: I tried Debian Lenny, and didn't like it all that much.
[20:41] <jrib> alaing: what?
[20:41] <MarderIII> Name41: good support for older hardware and minimal installation
[20:42] <slooksterpsv> is it just me or are the repositories slow today?
[20:42] <ikonia> slooksterpsv: just you
[20:42] <antIP> how can I access shared directories on network through terminal?
[20:42] <alaing> jrib OK maybe that didn't make sense I'm just used to using their packaged bit of software and am used to it when I've flicked between windows and ubuntu
[20:42] <aeon-ltd> carandraug: ok, i'm out of ideas but imo a sudo -s (or sudo -i) is not much more hassle than a single commadn
[20:42] <aeon-ltd> ikonia: they are more raw, from the start
[20:42] <BluesKaj> Name141, perhaps the alternate-install is an option, it recognizes HW much better than the live-cd
[20:42] <jrib> alaing: use the repositories in ubuntu.  Why don't you want to?
[20:42] <slooksterpsv> ikonia ok cause it's taking a long time
[20:42] <ikonia> aeon-ltd: no they are not
[20:43] <ikonia> aeon-ltd: they are made from the same base
[20:43] <Crash1hd> Can anyone help me with crons?
[20:43] <aeon-ltd> ikonia: also the i586 specialist ones, are optimised for Name141's cpu
[20:43] <ikonia> aeon-ltd: that really won't make a difference
[20:43] <Osama_bin_Packet> here to see split
[20:43] <y007ghg7> same
[20:43] <alaing> jrib just a bit worried I dont setup something correctly or leave a huge security hole in my server
[20:43] <carandraug> aeon-ltd, yeah. I didn't thought about it before. I just tried to avoid saying edit the file and add the line. Thanks
[20:43] <fiber> hello... i just got a new laptop (with an i5 processor)... is there any reason to put the netbook remix on instead of the desktop version?  I would go with a normal desktop, i just want the installation to be minimal to save battery power
[20:44] <aeon-ltd> ikonia: the seconds, a few MB of ram and a couple of mhz are worth it sometimes
[20:44] <ikonia> fiber: up to you, pros/cons to either
[20:44] <alaing> lampp from apache seems to advise you on how to set the passwords etc
[20:44] <ikonia> aeon-ltd: it wouldn't even be that
[20:44] <Crash1hd> where are crons saved? If I type crontab -l it shows my current crons but I want to edit them
[20:44] <Name141> Will Puppy use something like deb's or rpms?
[20:44] <fiber> ikonia: is there anywhere you would recommend to see the pros/cons?
[20:44] <VCoolio> Crash1hd: crontab -e
[20:44] <MarderIII> Name141: yes
[20:44] <mkquist> fiber, you know ive tried the netbook version and always ending going back to regular desktop myself
[20:44] <ikonia> fiber: ubuntu.com read about both see what meets your needs more
[20:44] <fiber> ikonia: the only things i care about are: hardware compatibility, battery life and network manager
[20:44] <Crash1hd> VCoolio, thanks
[20:45] <ikonia> fiber: hardware compatability and network manager should be the same, battery life depends what you run
[20:45] <jrib> alaing: you need to read documentation then...
[20:45] <fiber> ikonia: perfect... desktop it is!
[20:45] <rewati> Qwert: ????
[20:45] <Name141> MarderIII: Does it come with repos and stuff to auto update itself?
[20:45] <fiber> thanks for the help all!
[20:45] <aeon-ltd> ikonia: it is shown there is performance gains when compiling iX86 as opposed to i386, thats one of the reasons ubuntu shifted for those with i686 capable processors to take advanatage of them, and btw sorry for leading a offtopic conversation in the main channel
[20:46] <slooksterpsv> ok bb in a while
[20:46] <fishcooker> it works hexalator
[20:46] <ikonia> aeon-ltd: note "when compiling" not "when running"
[20:46] <fishcooker> sudo mount.ntfs-3g /dev/sdc3 /mnt/3 -o value=utf-8
[20:46] <MarderIII> Name141: it has repos and update facilities. no autoupdate i think.. hop over to the puppy channel
[20:46] <alaing> jrib are you sure that security updates are not applied? I'm sure on my other ubuntu setup using 9.04 desktop edition it asked me to update some of the apache security when it does updates and I used lampp on that
[20:46] <xbonesx> can someone help me with a menu.lst file, i need to edit to boot another iso file
[20:46] <aeon-ltd> ikonia: ok, maybe not every app will benefit(however it will not suffer either) during runtime
[20:46] <Kyle__> I have a number of machines locking up with errors like "kernel: [<timestamp>] INFO: task <prog name>:<pid> blocked for more than 120 seconds."
[20:46] <frobisher> 5
[20:47] <ikonia> aeon-ltd: agreed, but that's not a reason to change a distro
[20:47] <antIP> Why doesn't Rythmbox pull up shared directories on other computers on the network?
[20:47] <alaing> jrib in any case I would liek to learn where to place commands on startup so I know in future
[20:47] <Kyle__> All are running 10.04, with the 2.6.32-24-generic
[20:47] <zubergeek> Anyone know where i can find a website that actually tells you what the score is with Linux and its legality in the eyes of Microshaft?
[20:47] <aeon-ltd> ikonia: yeah i guess, i only recommended them if Name141 was looking at maxing out possibilities
[20:47] <jrib> alaing: apt will only update what you install from the repositories.  If you install from the repositories the packages will install the proper files so that apache and mysql start automatically as services when you boot
[20:47] <frobisher> 4*5
[20:47] <ikonia> aeon-ltd: and it wouldn't make a difference
[20:48] <frobisher> 4*5
[20:48] <antIP> why doesn't rythmbox connect to shared folders on network?
[20:48] <aeon-ltd> ikonia: opposed to ubuntu server, maybe.
[20:48] <ikonia> aeon-ltd: no, it just wouldn't make a difference
[20:49] <aeon-ltd> ikonia: ok, i'm just gonna admit defeat now. before we fill up more the channel
[20:49] <Kyle__> Anyone?  Anyone?  Repeated lockups on multiple machines?  2.6.32-24-generic kernel?
[20:49] <GregUK> Hi all. I have a number of web servers in a load balanced cluster. Can anyone suggest a way of replicating users' uploaded files (images) to all servers in the cluster?
[20:49] <aeon-ltd> *more of the channel
[20:49] <ikonia> GregUK: rsync
[20:50] <Kyle__> GregUK: You can use a clustered filesystem.  Or you could have them all mount a volume on a SAN or a fast NAS.
[20:50] <GregUK> ikonia: I was thinking something a bit more instantaneous. I'd have to run rsync every minute or something.
[20:50] <aeon-ltd> GregUK: raid1?
[20:50] <Kyle__> GregUK: If you want solid and instantanious, you need to look at a SAN.  They cost $$, but they work.
[20:50] <ikonia> GregUK: then you'd have to have shared storage at a backend
[20:50] <zubergeek> GregUK: you mean live sync?
[20:50] <Kyle__> ikonia: Exactly.
[20:51] <Kyle__> GregUK: The question will become, what's your budget, and how solid does it need to be?
[20:51] <GregUK> I've looked at DRBD, but that only allows one server to be live.
[20:51] <ikonia> GregUK: what cluster technology are you using ?
[20:51] <carandraug> aeon-ltd, I got echo "BaseRailsURI /tracks" | sudo tee /etc/apache2/conf.d/tracks.conf and it works. just in case you ever need it
[20:52] <GregUK> zubergeek: What's live sync?
[20:52] <ikonia> GregUK: what cluster technology are you using ?
[20:52] <GregUK> ikonia: identical nginx web servers behind HAproxy load balancers
[20:52] <aeon-ltd> carandraug: ok, glad you resolved it :)
[20:52] <guntbert> zubergeek: thats off topic here - this channel is for ubuntu support only
[20:52] <ikonia> GregUK: what OS are they running ?
[20:52] <GregUK> ikonia: all Ubuntu
[20:53] <ikonia> GregUK: ubuntu what version
[20:53] <weather15> Hello Everyone
[20:53] <GregUK> ikonia: 10.04 LTS
[20:53] <Kyle__> GregUK: If you're using all linux, you could use a coraid etherdrive SAN.  Those are pretty cheap, for a SAN.
[20:54] <arifovic> weather15: Hello
[20:54] <weather15> Does anyone know why when a second flash window is opened the other flash window goes blank?
[20:54] <ikonia> GregUK: your going to have to look at shared backend storage, and something like multimaster ldap services for auth
[20:54] <njin> Hello guys, i want to know if we have a reader of scanned images ?
[20:54] <lepota> ïðèâåò âñåì :)
[20:54] <scriptwarlock> weeeeeeeeeee i got it
[20:54] <scriptwarlock> wow
[20:54] <Kyle__> GregUK: If it helps, iscsi was rock solid when I used it on RHEL servers.
[20:54] <ikonia> njin: any image reader app should work
[20:54] <zubergeek> GregUK: I wasnt suggesting a ware called live sync, was mearly asking if you wanted 'live syncronsation of data'
[20:55] <ikonia> Kyle__: part of the reasons I was asking the ubuntu vesion, it's solid on that
[20:55] <zubergeek> but nvm now
[20:55] <lepota> íå ïîäêñêàæåòå ãäå è êàê íàñòðàèâàåòñÿ ìåíþ êîòîðîå âûâîäèò ãðàá ïðè çàãðóçêå? :)
[20:55] <scriptwarlock> ikonia: got it solved
[20:55] <Kyle__> ikonia: Ah ok.  I've never had the chance to use it in ubuntu :)
[20:55] <ikonia> Kyle__: 10.04 has solid iscsi support
[20:55] <GregUK> Kyle__, ikonia: is there an OSS solution? Would something like NFS work?
[20:55] <Kyle__> ikonia: Well, I mean for "real" work.  I test-mounted some volumes from my laptop, but that's not "real" work.
[20:55] <njin> Sorry, i want a reader that talk, like orca but can read scanned images
[20:55] <ikonia> GregUK: no, as that would be a single point of failure and make the cluster pointless
[20:56] <GregUK> zubergeek: ahh, yes. A user uploads a file to one server and it instantly replicates to the other servers.
[20:56] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: atlast i figure it out
[20:56] <Kyle__> GregUK: it would, given testing, and a reliable enough NFS server.  But an inexpsnive SAN is about the same price, and it's purpose built for it.
[20:56] <Gskelling> THE GAME
[20:56] <ikonia> GregUK: if that one server goes down, all your cluster is dead
[20:56] <Kyle__> ikonia: It could work actually.  Not ideal, but it would work.
[20:56]  * Kyle__ nods
[20:56] <GregUK> ikonia: NFS + DRBD? :)
[20:56] <ikonia> GregUK: nope
[20:57] <Kyle__> GregUK: Are you at the point of zero budget or somefin? :)
[20:57] <BluesKaj> scriptwarlock, , a differnt user installed the app ?
[20:57] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: ugly way i deleted some relative files of eee in /var/lib/dpkg/info
[20:57] <Kyle__> Whoohoo!  I signed up for google's android app-inventor the day it came out, and I just got my login info today!  Only two months later....
[20:58] <th___> hi all
[20:58] <th___> is there a netbook specific channel?
[20:58] <antIP> So, why doesn't rythmbox connect to network shared directories?
[20:58] <Kyle__> ikonia: What SANs have you used with linux?  I've only had the opprotunity to work with EMC Clarrions.
[20:58] <GregUK> Kyle__: I'd prefer to make use of what we've got if possible... shed loads of unused storage and RAID 6
[20:58] <ikonia> Kyle__: jump into #ubuntu-offtopic and I'd be happy to chat to you
[20:59] <Kyle__> th^2: Eh.  Probably not.  The netbook remix oddly isn't as nice on my netbook as full blown.
[20:59] <Kyle__> ikonia: Good idea
[20:59] <ikonia> GregUK: it's worthless to you unless it can be cross mounted on multiple machines as shared backend storage
[20:59] <GregUK> Kyle__: did you have anything in mind when you suggested a clustered filesystem?
[20:59] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: after that i just did sudo dpkg -r eee220 and it went gone
[20:59] <th^2> Kyle__, ok..
[20:59] <rob_____> hay can any of you get to www.facebook.com ??? here inthe UK DNS error are abound
[20:59] <sweetpi> antIP: you likely need to mount them first, not all apps support that
[21:00] <ikonia> rob_____: UK is having core backbone problems at the moment
[21:00] <BluesKaj> yup scriptwarlock ,broken dependencies
[21:00] <th^2> im using netbook remix and did remove things and now i dont have that upper bar.
[21:00] <Kyle__> GregUK: There are two types of cluster-filesystems.  Those which allow multiple servers to simultaniously use one physical drive.  And those where multiple servers all have their own physical drive, and but sync them togeather to look like one shared drive
[21:00] <MrPicard> Hey guys!, i want to purchase a computer/desktop with ubuntu preinstalled. the desktop budget is 314 us dollers
[21:00] <Kyle__> GregUK: The first type is more stable and better tested.
[21:00] <MrPicard> any ideas on a good hardware vendor?
[21:00] <FloodBot4> !netsplit
[21:00] <rizzuh> THE INTARWEBS IS BROKEN!
[21:01] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: yeah i know its not the proper way to clean broken but in times like this i have to.. thanks anyway for the time
[21:01] <Oer> wb
[21:01] <ikonia> Please hang in channel  - this will be solved shortly
[21:01] <th^2> im using netbook remix and did remove things and now i dont have that upper bar.
[21:01] <besogon> waw
[21:01] <Crash1hd> Does cron log anything anywhere?
[21:01] <antIP> sweetpi: Thanks, they are mounted
[21:01] <unknownbliss> just the netsplit
[21:01] <Pici> Crash1hd: There will be an entry in /var/log/auth.log for when it runs.
[21:02] <BluesKaj> scriptwarlock, np, glad you fixed it
[21:02] <xangua> !panels | th^2
[21:02] <GregUK> Kyle__: what would you recommended for the first option?
[21:02] <antIP> sweetpi: Or, did you mean, mount the directory in Rythmbox?
[21:02] <scriptwarlock> BluesKaj: got a hard lesson for today... :D
[21:02] <_BEAST> hmm
[21:03] <sweetpi> antIP: no, i meant mount it like, mount -t smbfs etc..., so you cant access even though its mounted?
[21:03] <Kyle__> GregUK: I honestly never got to use them, so I would just go with one that has active develoment.
[21:03] <Kyle__> GregUK: GFS is supposed to be well spuported...and OCFS2 as well, but that's not under heavy development
[21:03] <GregUK> Kyle__: I'll take a look, thanks :)
[21:04] <gabgom> hi
[21:04] <Kyle__> GregUK: NP!
[21:04] <Crash1hd> Pici, the reason I am asking is I have 2 items in my cron tab one that I put in one I didnt but the one I put in I have removed the file so it should be failing was wondeirng if that gets logged anywhere
[21:04] <GregUK> ikonia: thanks for your advice too, I'll take a look into SANs :)
[21:04] <th^2> how i can stop ssh server to start at boot :S i removed it from /etc/rcX but it keeps launching
[21:05] <Crash1hd> Pici, the other was done by mysql but I cant tell if its working or not
[21:05] <antIP> sweetpi - yeah the directory is mounted already. Can't access. In Exaile I can see the directory, but I can't load it in my library - so I can play the files only be going into each folder and selecting them, but I can't use the full libraby functionality of any of my music programs with the shared directory.
[21:05] <Culero_> So my up/down keys don't work anymore. I've xev'ed them, and they don't even register as being themselves. I've checked for proper keyboard layouts, and checked for global hotkeys, yet nothing. Anyone have ideas?
[21:05] <Culero_> http://pastebin.com/K945JDAq This is their output
[21:06] <th^2> how i can stop ssh server to start at boot :S i removed it from /etc/rcX but it keeps launching
[21:06] <sweetpi> antIP: how did you mount it, through places, or from term?
[21:07] <antIP> sweetpi: It automatically mounted with I selected it through the gui
[21:07] <Kogenta> th^2: delete or move the init script (I'm sure I'll be chewed out for saying that.)
[21:07] <Kogenta> /etc/init.d/ssh or /etc/init,d/sshd, I don't remember which
[21:08] <sweetpi> antIP: thats what i meant by actually mounting it, try mounting manually instead of through gui
[21:08] <antIP> sweetpi - Ok, how do I do that?
[21:08] <koglinjg> i am new to ubuntu, how can i make a network profile to connect to a hidden network with no encryption?
[21:09] <sweetpi> antIP: been a while but iirc its, "mount -t smbfs //serverip/share /mountpoint", if you need a username just add "-o username=user"
[21:09]  * Kyle__ tries again.
[21:10] <Kyle__> I have a number of machines locking up with errors like "kernel: [<timestamp>] INFO: task <prog name>:<pid> blocked for more than 120 seconds."
[21:10] <th^2> Kogenta, but how come removing it from runlevels doesnt work?
[21:10] <Kogenta> th^2: Honestly I have no idea.
[21:11] <BluesKaj> th^2, remove from /etc/init.d , perhaps?
[21:11] <antIP> sweetpi what is the "mountpoint"?
[21:12] <antIP> sweetpi: is it the name of the directory?
[21:12] <Kogenta> BluesKaj, I already suggested that. I think he's more worried about why than how.
[21:12] <groovehunter> hi, pls how much takes lucid desktop on usb stick?
[21:12] <sweetpi> antIP: yeah, wherever your wanting to mount it
[21:12] <koglinjg> i can connect to the network using iwconfig essid "Student-Wireless"; dhclient eth1;    but i dont know how to do this in the gui ... any ideas?
[21:12] <groovehunter> how much space i mean
[21:12] <Kyle__> I'm having repeated lockups on multiple machines with 10.04, kernel 2.6.32-24-generic
[21:12] <magaio> has anyone had any problems compiling against cairomm headers?
[21:12] <BluesKaj> th^2, or edit it no-auto in the script
[21:12] <groovehunter> more than 1G ?
[21:12] <Kogenta> Kyle__, what process?
[21:12] <th^2> BluesKaj, i did that
[21:12] <th^2> BluesKaj, but it keeps starting
[21:13] <jrib> !persistence | groovehunter
[21:13] <Cojage> when exactly is the releasedate of 10.10?
[21:13] <Kyle__> Kogenta: It's been a few different ones.
[21:13] <jrib> groovehunter: well that's not what I wanted...
[21:13] <xangua> 10-10-10 Cojage
[21:13] <Cojage> lol ok
[21:13] <th^2> BluesKaj, and used sysv-rc-conf :(
[21:13] <jrib> !usb | groovehunter
[21:13] <doghawk> I need some help setting up a shared directory on a network
[21:13] <BluesKaj> th^2, why are you doing this anyway, if I may be so bold to ask ...it's not a hog
[21:14] <jrib> th^2: ubuntu uses upstart now
[21:14] <antIP> sweetpi: I have no idea if that worked, I just got a list of information regardin the mount command.
[21:14] <Kyle__> Kogenta: to pick one at random, from the logs, npviewer.bin.  These  are always followed eventually by a long Call Trace
[21:14] <antIP> sweetpi: It didn't mount anything.
[21:14] <th^2> BluesKaj, well why would i want useless servers to run?
[21:14] <doghawk> Can anyone help me set up a shared directory on my network?
[21:14] <sweetpi> antIP: what did you type?
[21:15] <Kogenta> Kyle__: that'd be Firefox's flash plugin.
[21:15] <jrib> doghawk: right click -> share
[21:15] <Kyle__> Kogenta: Other ones: sh, gnome-screensaver, apt-get, bash, wnck-applet, vim, ldmgtkgreet.
[21:15] <BluesKaj> if you aren't using ssh then just remove openssh, th^2
[21:15] <doghawk> I'm using Ubuntu Server (command line only)
[21:15] <Kyle__> Kogenta: It's many, many things.
[21:15] <Kogenta> hmm.
[21:15] <antIP> mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.159/share/sharedmusic
[21:15] <Kogenta> No idea, then. Sounds like a kernel or module problem.
[21:15] <th^2> jrib, meaning?
[21:16] <Kogenta> or possibly hardware
[21:16] <jrib> doghawk: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/samba-fileserver.html
[21:16] <sweetpi> antIP: you didnt specify the mount point
[21:16] <Kyle__> Kogenta: It happens on multiple boxes.  I think it's a kernel issue to be hoenst.  KNow when the next kernel's out?
[21:16] <jrib> th^2: meaning you should not apply sysv-init concepts to upstart
[21:16] <Cojage> did canonical fixed the random freezes yet?
[21:17] <Cojage> im still on mint now
[21:17] <Kogenta> Kyle__, no. Try checking for updates now anyway.
[21:17] <alaing> what does this code do " egrep :initdefault: /etc/inittab."
[21:17] <th^2> jrib, then what should i do?
[21:17] <Cojage> but mint is a little too limited
[21:17] <Kogenta> aladilas, that finds "initdefault" in /etc/inittab.
[21:17] <jrib> th^2: I don't know what you are trying to accomplish
[21:17] <th^2> jrib, stop ssh server starting
[21:17] <antIP> sweetpi: Oh, I see, the command you typed was cut off in xchat
[21:17] <Kogenta> --(xero@asgard)-(4/pts/5)-(16:04/Sep-23-2010)-(118M RAM available)--
[21:17] <Kogenta> --($:~)-- egrep :initdefault: /etc/inittab
[21:17] <Kogenta> id:2:initdefault:
[21:17] <jrib> th^2: automatically on boot you mean?  But you still want to start it on demand?
[21:17] <Kogenta> not malicious
[21:18] <Kyle__> Kogenta: Did this morning, no newer kernel.
[21:18] <th^2> jrib, thats right
[21:18] <maedox|afk> th^2: sudo update-rc.d -f sshd remove
[21:18] <^Phantom3^> hEY ALL
[21:18] <jrib> th^2: I just add "never" as a condition for ssh to start in /etc/init/ssh.conf
[21:18] <Crash1hd> can anyone tell me how I would know if this cron is working or not? 0 0 * * * /usr/bin/mabackup -d /home/crash1hd/Documents/My -x Darkprince_ profile
[21:18] <alaing> Kogenta: when I ran that it recon no such file or directory
[21:18] <Kyle__> Kogenta: if it helps, almost all the Call Traces start with sync_buffer.
[21:19] <jrib> !away > maedox
[21:19] <antIP> sweetpi: Now it's telling me that the mountpoint does not exist.
[21:19] <jrib> maedox: that wouldn't work
[21:19] <Kogenta> alaing: that means /etc/inittab doesn't exist
[21:19] <^Phantom3^> I'm using an ubuntu 8.10 livecd to recover files from a windows xp hard drive
[21:19] <Kogenta> which is probably bad
[21:19] <archangelpetro> ok, silly question is there an editor whic hwill update in 'real time' a file it's viewing that's being written to?
[21:19] <alaing> I'm using server edition
[21:19] <jrib> Crash1hd: you could check for mail from cron or modify the command so you would get some feedback
[21:19] <sweetpi> antIP: yes, you need to mkdir it
[21:20] <groovehunter> thx jrib , the last page says use 750MB
[21:20] <^Phantom3^> what is the command to search for all files of a certain type ?
[21:20] <jrib> alaing: why do you want to do this?
[21:20] <komradefox> how do i allocate more disk space. i have only allocated 20gb and i want to change it to 100 total
[21:20] <Kogenta> alaing: i logged into a shell server to run that, so I'd assume it should be present on anything that you want to boot properly.
[21:20] <maedox> jrib: why not?
[21:20] <alaing> Kogenta: server edition with gnome-desktop installed
[21:20] <th^2> maedox, lets try it out
[21:20] <^Phantom3^> it's grep something
[21:20] <jrib> ^Phantom3^: define "type"
[21:20] <^Phantom3^> i can't remember the rest
[21:20] <Crash1hd> jrib, alright that brings me back to my original problem If I type mail in ternminal it says I have over 6000 msgs is there any way to get those into a gui mail client
[21:20] <jrib> maedox: why not what?
[21:20] <^Phantom3^> *.mp3 *.wma
[21:20] <^Phantom3^> stuff like that
[21:20] <maedox> jrib: you said: "that wouldn't work" probably to my "update-rc.d ..."
[21:20] <antIP> sweetpi: So I need to make a directory in my home folder where I want it to mount?
[21:21] <jrib> maedox: because ubuntu uses upstart now
[21:21] <sweetpi> antIP: yes, wherever you want
[21:21] <th^2> jrib it think maedox had the right answer for me
[21:21] <alaing> jrib i found a FAQ about booting xampp http://www.apachefriends.org/en/faq-xampp-linux.html#fsl
[21:21] <^Phantom3^> i want to search the entire drive for mp3 files.
[21:21] <^Phantom3^> How do you do it again?
[21:21] <^Phantom3^> it's sudo grep something
[21:21] <^Phantom3^> i remember that much
[21:21] <jrib> alaing: I already told you how to properly use lamp on ubuntu...
[21:21] <guntbert> !enter | ^Phantom3^
[21:21] <jrib> Crash1hd: look for a guide on reading local system mail with your mail client
[21:21] <sweetpi> antIP: I would put it outside your home dir though, that way you can add it to fstab so it will mount at boot
[21:22] <antIP> sweetpi: awesome. I've never done that before
[21:22] <Crash1hd> jrib, thats what I have been looking for
[21:22] <maedox> jrib: I'm pretty sure it works, but I might be wrong of course.
[21:22] <jrib> ^Phantom3^: on the command line?
[21:22] <^Phantom3^> jrib: yes
[21:22] <jrib> Crash1hd: I don't know what client you use
[21:22] <jrib> ^Phantom3^: use: locate .mp3
[21:22] <Crash1hd> jrib, which ever one came with ubuntu
[21:22] <jrib> Crash1hd: evolution?
[21:22] <alaing> jrib I'm sorry I like to be stubbin (maybe not for my own good in this instance) :)
[21:22] <antIP> sweetpi: Outside of my home? Like under my username in the directory above home?>
[21:22] <Crash1hd> jrib, I dont have an actual mail client setup on ubuntu as I use it as a media server mostly
[21:23] <Crash1hd> jrib, so yeah I would say evolution
[21:23] <bsmith093> is there a way i can verify that a movie file will play on windows media player if i dont have wmp
[21:23] <sweetpi> antIP: no, maybe like /mnt/sharedmusic or /smbmounts/sharedmusic up to you
[21:23] <^Phantom3^> jrib: how do I specify the ntfs drive?
[21:23] <jrib> th^2, maedox: well th^2 said he had already removed it from /etc/rc*.d anyway which is what that command does
[21:23] <Kyle__> How do you go about getting a newer kernel?  Like one out of testing?
[21:23] <bsmith093> specifically the video codec is divx MPEG 4 version 4
[21:23] <Crash1hd> jrib, I think I found something https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/installation-guide/i386/mail-setup.html :) will read that thanks
[21:24] <jrib> ^Phantom3^: pipe to grep
[21:24] <maedox> jrib: OK, I didn't catch that. It's kind of weird to have the config in /etc/init and not /etc/upstart isn't it. :confused:
[21:24] <jrib> Crash1hd: k, it's probably the same but use the one for your version (that's a 9.04 url)
[21:24] <alaing> Kogenta: any ideas?
[21:24] <xangua> Kyle__: you can test a PPA, under your own risk of course
[21:24] <jrib> maedox: hmm?  What are you asking?
[21:25] <alaing> I am trying to run that from putty if it makes any difference
[21:25] <maedox> jrib: forget it. :P  I'll educate myself. ;-)
[21:25] <Crash1hd> jrib, ahh ok :) thanks again
[21:25] <jrib> !upstart | maedox, th^2
[21:25] <antIP> sweetpi. You want to help me out with that? I've never done it before.
[21:25] <Kyle__> xangua: where can I go to find out how to do that?
[21:26] <antIP> sweetpi: I"m in the mnt directory now.
[21:26] <antIP> sweetpi: In the terminal
[21:26] <sweetpi> antIP: do you have it mounted right now? we should check that your music app can access it first
[21:26] <th^2> how come i cant modify the gnome panel :S
[21:26] <antIP> sweetpi: never mind, I figured it out. I've created the directory
[21:26] <Kogenta> alaing, nope, sorry. I'm pretty sure /etc/inittab should exist, though. Its absence will probably lead to a boot/shutdown failure.
[21:27] <antIP> sweetpi: Well, no, I don't have it mounted yet
[21:27] <sweetpi> antIP: ok, mount it and test, then well add it to fstab
[21:28] <jrib> alaing, Kogenta: /etc/inittab isn't required with upstart
[21:28] <xangua> Kyle__: this is the one i use https://launchpad.net/~guido-iodice/+archive/best-intel you can safetly remove it with ppa-purge if it doesn't work fine to you
[21:28] <^Phantom5^> I'm having trouble typing typing the command right, jrib
[21:28] <alaing> Kogenta: what about init.d
[21:28] <jrib> ^Phantom5^: what are you trying?
[21:28] <antIP> sweetpi: first of all you gave me this command: mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.159/share /mountpoint (I don't know what I'm suposed to put for "share", or does that just remain as "share"?)
[21:28] <^Phantom5^> trying to locate all MP3 files on the ntfs drive
[21:28] <alaing> Kogenta: or just plain  init
[21:29] <jrib> ^Phantom5^: right.  You said you were having trouble typing the command.  What did you try exactly?
[21:29] <sweetpi> antIP: change share to the sharename your trying to access
[21:29] <^Phantom5^> I did 'grep mp3' just like you told me
[21:29] <jrib> ^Phantom5^: no I didn't :/
[21:30] <alaing> I need to find my  default runlevel
[21:30] <Kyle__> xangua: Thank you!
[21:30] <jrib> ^Phantom5^: why don't you just use the gui?
[21:30] <antIP> sweetpi: OK, i tried this: sudo mount -t smbfs //192.168.0.159/share /mnt/sharedmusic and got this: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //192.... and so on.
[21:30] <jrib> !runlevel | alaing
[21:30] <^Phantom5^> i don't know where the files are located
[21:30] <jrib> ^Phantom5^: umm, you can search with nautilus, can't you?
[21:31] <antIP> sweetpi: I don't know what the share name is. What is a share name? Is it the name of the shared directory, or the sharing computer?
[21:31] <^Phantom5^> someone a year or so ago had me do a grep something something on my own computer and i found all the files with that command
[21:31] <sweetpi> antIP: sorry run "sudo aptitude install smbfs"
[21:31] <guntbert> ^Phantom5^: to find files by their names you use find (not grep)
[21:31] <antIP> sweetpi: ok. done
[21:31] <sweetpi> antIP: its the name of the shared directory on the computer that has the files
[21:32] <jrib> ^Phantom5^: yeah, I can tell you the command, but what's the point?  You're going to come to an irc channel every time you need to search your computer?  Just use the gui
[21:32] <^Phantom5^> so, find *.mp3
[21:32] <^Phantom5^> jrib no i'm not
[21:32] <^Phantom5^> I haven't used ubuntu for over a year and can't remember the commands
[21:32] <antIP> sweetpi: should I try running that command again now that i've downloaded smbfs?
[21:32] <jrib> ^Phantom5^: if you want to use the command line, then you need invest time to learn to use it, not just guess at things
[21:32] <^Phantom5^> is that a fucking crime?
[21:32] <jrib> ^Phantom5^: please watch the language here
[21:32] <guntbert> !language | ^Phantom5^
[21:32] <sweetpi> antIP: no, you need to change "share" to the correct share name
[21:33] <antIP> sweetpi: Yeah, I changed it already
[21:33] <^Phantom5^> so wait a second
[21:33] <sweetpi> antIP: ok try the command now
  find . | grep -i -s -e mp3
[21:33] <^Phantom5^> if i type *.mp3 in the search bar, it will find all mp3 files?
[21:33] <antIP> sweetpi: I typed in the command, it asked me for my password, and now it says Mount Error: Connection Timed Out.
[21:34] <guntbert> !nickspam > SOLTERA_hot
[21:34] <jrib> ^Phantom5^: my guess is you would search for ".mp3" in nautilus
[21:34] <sweetpi> antIP: ok, you either need to remove the password from the share or add "-o username=user" to the mount command
[21:35] <sweetpi> antIP: so something like "mount -t smbfs -o username=antip //serverip/share /mountpoint"
[21:36] <th^2> im using gnome: at top bar there is more stuff that i need. but when i right click them "Remove from panel" and "Move" are not usable. why is that?
[21:36] <sweetpi> antIP: btw I dont know how to automatically mount a share at boot that is password protected
[21:37] <Kyle__> sweetpi: /etc/fstab
[21:37] <frenchy> does ubuntu turn off wifi or put it to sleep when its been inactive for a while?
[21:37] <sweetpi> Kyle__: yeah I know that, but what about the password?
[21:38] <Kyle__> sweetpi: well, depending on the mount type, you either put that in the fstab as well, or refer to a file that contains the password in the fstab entry.
[21:38] <Kyle__> sweetpi: What type of mount is it?
[21:38] <sweetpi> Kyle__: smbfs
[21:38] <alaing> how do i check the services that are running on the server
[21:39] <roshanavand> ubuntu does not know my bluetooth device
[21:39] <Kyle__> Wow. I don't have mount.smb on my box.  I'm surprised.
[21:39] <antIP> sweetpi: Well, now I'm getting permission denied. I guess it doesn't like my password.
[21:39] <Kyle__> sweetpi: Well man mount.smb and see what it says.
[21:39] <roshanavand> I don't see my bluetooth device listed under lsusb
[21:39] <th^2> im using gnome: at top bar there is more stuff that i need. but when i right click them "Remove from panel" and "Move" are not usable. why is that?
[21:40] <sweetpi> antIP: or maybe the username
[21:40] <antIP> sweetpi: Im using the proper username and password for the sharing computer.
[21:41] <roshanavand> ubuntu does not know my bluetooth device
[21:41] <sweetpi> Kyle__: I dont have it either. just giving antIP directions from my head :)
[21:41] <roshanavand> I don't see my bluetooth device listed under lsusb
[21:41] <Kyle__> sweetpi: Ahh :) I see.
[21:41] <Kyle__> sweetpi: I know some mount types let you specify a password file.. so that's the preferred way, put it in fstab, make the file readable only by root, yadda yadda.
[21:41] <bj_990> anybody experience the backslash and pipe keys replaced with  < and > ?
[21:41] <sweetpi> antIP: are you doing this as root?
[21:42] <^Phantom5^> I did that find command, and it didn't work.
[21:42] <jrib> !who | ^Phantom5^
[21:42] <antIP> sweetpi: sudo
[21:43] <antIP> sweetpi: The directory isn't even password protected on the network. I have it set for guest.
[21:43] <fiber> Hi... I'm just installing ubuntu on my laptop and it has a broadcom 4357 network adapter.  the "hardware drivers" program pops up with the correct drivers, but i can't get online to download them! (quite a catch-22)... does anyone know what I can do to fix this?
[21:44] <antIP> sweetpi: Mmm. It's strange that the directory is already mounted in the GUI, but then i have to manually mount it in the terminal in order to use it? Why does linux have to different ways to mount?
[21:44] <sweetpi> antIP: change "-o username=user" to "-o guest"
[21:44] <antIP> sweetpi: Well technically, I'm already using it. I mean, I can get into the directory and stuff.
[21:45] <sweetpi> antIP: the one in the gui, not all apps know how to access
[21:45] <anygivenname> I connect to my machine running ubuntu thru remote desktop sharing but I do that from a machine running Windows or from my phone running Win 6.5.....copy & paste of files is not possible...is there anyway I can resolve ?
[21:45] <antIP> sweetpi: Ok, I did that.
[21:45] <antIP> sweetpi: ok
[21:45] <antIP> swetpi: After I ran the command it said, Mapping 'guest' to 'guest,sec=none'
[21:45] <alaing> how do i check the services that are running on the server
[21:46] <antIP> sweetpi: it's mounted now.
[21:46] <antIP> Under mnt
[21:46] <shawnboy> I'm thinking of trying Google Chrome. What's the aptitude package name and is there a difference between using this and getting the .deb file from Google?
[21:46] <sweetpi> antIP: ok test with your music app now
[21:47] <maedox> th^2: I don't know if you figured it out, but I looked into the upstart stuff, and apparently you should set « start on runlevel [!0123456] »  instead of the start on line /etc/init/ssh.conf. It will never start and not give an error, and you can still start it manually.
[21:47] <jamw> shawnboy: i don't think there's any difference - downloading the .deb should add the google repo so it'll be updated
[21:47] <antIP> sweetpi: It doesn't work. I direct Rythmbox to the directory and select "open" and it doesn't import anything. :(
[21:47] <shawnboy> jamw: thanks. so do you know the package name if I just want to use CLI?
[21:48] <roshanavand> shawnboy: there is only difference in the icon and the name
[21:48] <xangua> shawnboy: google chrome is not in ubuntu repositories, chromium is
[21:48] <jamw> nope, i grabbed the .deb from the site
[21:48] <roshanavand> I don't see my bluetooth device listed under lsusb
[21:48] <roshanavand> what should I do
[21:49] <shawnboy> ah. I think it may be chromium-browser
[21:49] <shawnboy> thanks all.
[21:49] <antIP> sweetpi: It's not working in Exaile either.
[21:49] <murlidhar> is there any way where i can force aspect ratio in totem media player ?
[21:50] <antIP> sweetpi: Clementine wont add it to the library either.
[21:50] <bgugi> murlidhar, view > aspect ration
[21:50] <th^2> maedox, i put start on runlevel 0.
[21:50] <murlidhar> i know vlc has an option that does that..but does totem have any such command line option even ?
[21:51] <murlidhar> bgugi: i wanna load any video at a predefined ratio aspect when i load one.
[21:51] <sweetpi> antIP: your doing import folder in rhythmbox?
[21:51] <antIP> Yes
[21:51] <antIP> sweetpi: yes
[21:51] <m_fulder> hello
[21:51] <sweetpi> antIP: and what is the output of "ls /mountpoint"?
[21:51] <BluesKaj> is facebook down in europe?..appears to be down in NA
[21:52] <Blecj`cj> Can anyone here answer my question about OpenOffice?
[21:52] <robertf> BluesKaj: yes it is
[21:52] <xangua> BluesKaj: in all world
[21:52] <bgugi> murlidhar: sorry, in taht case i don't know
[21:52] <BluesKaj> my daughter is complaining :)
[21:52] <antIP> sweetpi: All of the content on my host pc.
[21:52] <Kyle__> BluesKaj: all depends.  Did you ask your question yet?
[21:52] <Kyle__> sorry BluesKaj Mistabbed.
[21:53] <Kyle__> Blecj`cj: All depends.  Ask it.
[21:53] <sweetpi> antIP: what about the permissions of the mountpoint and the files?
[21:53] <antIP> sweetpi: I can pull up the directory manually in Clementine, and Exaile, but they're not added to the library so I can't search the music, or anything like that.
[21:53] <BluesKaj> Kyle__, no need  , no probs here sofar today ...knock on wood
[21:53] <antIP> sweetpi: How do I check permission? ls -all?
[21:53] <Blecj`cj> If I accidentally closed out of a document in OpenOffice, if it was saved as a temporary file, would a backup copy be found somewhere in the OpenOffice or other directory?
[21:53] <maedox> th^2: where did you get that from? I don't think that's recommended because it will start on shutdown/halt.
[21:53] <antIP> sweetpi: It's all drwx------
[21:53] <sweetpi> antIP: yes
[21:54] <th^2> maedox, i figured it out myself...
[21:54] <Kyle__> Blecj`cj: Openoffice autosaves, so it may be there... what type of file was it?  How long was it open?
[21:54] <sweetpi> antIP: and who is the owner? root?
[21:54] <antIP> sweetpi: well, the directory itself is drwxr-xr-x
[21:54] <antIP> (i think)
[21:54] <Blecj`cj> it was a regular Untitled openoffice document named Untitled1
[21:54] <th^2> maedox, but it works now..
[21:54] <m_fulder> Im about to install ubuntu on my HDD I want a partition with 20 GB for the systtem and the rest of my HDD fpr Data...so I've now chosen "Specify partitions manually (advanced)" On my ubuntu setup ...but then which is the system and which is the data .. I can choose between "journal filesystem ext4" or "rotative-storage" (sry transelating from swedish thoes 2 don't know what they can be called in the english version... anyway which 
[21:55] <jags> I'm not sure why but in linux my sound system has no bass, the subwoofer does nothing, but in windows it seems to work correctly
[21:55] <antIP> sweetpi: I don't know who the owner is really. It says my username on the first like and then root on the second line.
[21:55] <jags> any ideas?
[21:55] <BluesKaj> well, time to do some chores ...later folks
[21:55] <fiber> Hi... I'm just installing ubuntu on my laptop and it has a broadcom 4357 network adapter.  the "hardware drivers" program pops up with the correct drivers, but i can't get online to download them! (quite a catch-22)... does anyone know what I can do to fix this?
[21:55] <m_fulder> I gues I should choose the "journal..." for my System and the "rotative.." for Data?
[21:55] <sweetpi> antIP: paste one of the lines for a file
[21:56] <mkquist> m_fulder: swap?
[21:56] <jdolan> has the nfs-client package gone away in recent releases?
[21:56] <antIP> sweetpi: drwx------   4 adam adam    0 2010-09-12 18:38 Interpol
[21:56] <Kyle__> Blecj`cj: Was it ever saved at all?
[21:56] <antIP> sweetpi: So, I guess my user owns them. Is that right?
[21:56] <sweetpi> antIP: right
[21:57] <m_fulder> mkquist : yes what is swap for?
[21:57] <sweetpi> antIP: are you running the app as the same user?
[21:57] <Kyle__> Blecj`cj: Did it not offer for you to save it whenyou closed it?
[21:57] <mkquist> m_fulder: its like memory on the hard drive
[21:57] <mkquist> m_fulder: not to be used to store anything
[21:57] <mkquist> m_fulder: system would be the "/" folder
[21:58] <m_fulder> hm..but I want to partition the disc so I can use both partitions
[21:58] <mkquist> m_fulder: or "root"
[21:58] <m_fulder> aha
[21:58] <m_fulder> so both should be ext4
[21:58] <m_fulder> then the System is mounted on /
[21:58] <YellowTree> Hi getting following error, while going to localhost : http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/Y3j3z1vt
[21:58] <m_fulder> and my another partition on whatever I want
[21:58] <mkquist> m_fulder: swap can be like a gigabyte if you want
[21:58] <Blecj`cj> Kyle__ No, it didn't
[21:58] <bgugi> i have a question. I have ctrl+alt+home/end/pgup/pgdwn set up in the gnome keyboard shortcuts dialogue to control my media players. in addition to the keyboard, i sometimes like to use a wiimote through wminput, but as far as i can tell wminput can only associate a single key to each button. to get around this until now, i've used odd xf86 keys (like bassboost) to send "rhythmbox-client --play-pause" and such to rhythmbox. currently, i'm
[21:58] <bgugi>  using rhythmbox and pithos interchangeably (depends on whether i have internet) basically, i'm wondering if i can: a) map more than one key to the gnome "play" command, b) map one key into multiple (xf86bassboost = ctrl+alt+home) or c) something else?
[21:58] <m_fulder> do I even need swap mkquist ?
[21:58] <mkquist> m_fulder: you can store the user data on another partition if you like
[21:58] <Blecj`cj> Kyle__: No, it was never saved at all
[21:58] <mkquist> m_fulder: depends on how much ram you have really
[21:59] <mkquist> m_fulder: maybe not these days
[21:59] <antIP> sweetpi: Well, I'm running the app as the same username, but on a different computer.
[21:59] <m_fulder> mkquist RAM? :O...can't I just make to partitions and it will work?
[21:59] <Kyle__> Blecj`cj: You may be SOL.  Sorry.
[21:59] <anygivename> is there a way to exchange files when i am connected to ubuntu from a windows machine through remote sharing ?
[21:59] <Kyle__> if it was ever saved, then it autosaves from what I've seen.
[21:59] <sweetpi> antIP: "umount /mountpoint" them mount it again with "-o guest,umask=022" see if that makes a difference
[21:59] <antIP> sweetpi: I'm running rythmbox on my laptop and trying to access my shared dir on my desktop. Both PCs have the same username.
[22:00] <mkquist> m_fulder: 2 partitions? yes, it would work fine, but I thought you wanted the user on a different partition too?
[22:00] <jeand> bonsoir
[22:00] <m_fulder> mkquist the user? No I just want 2 partiotions one for system one for data
[22:00] <YellowTree> Hi getting following error, while going to localhost : http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/Y3j3z1vt
[22:01] <mgolisch> do what it tells you then
[22:01] <jeand> bonsoir
[22:01] <m_fulder> mkquist so I've don like this:  dev/sda:    dev/sda1: ext4:  mount: "/" ... dev/sda2: ext4:   mount: "/media/Data"
[22:01] <m_fulder> this should work right?
[22:01] <xangua> BluesKaj: tell your daughter she can conect to facebook with any jabber client ;) http://ur1.ca/m7wa (a little late, losted connection)
[22:01] <YellowTree> Well, apache2 is working correct
[22:01] <antIP> sweetpi: ok I did that.
[22:02] <mkquist> m_fulder: the "/" one will have the system on it then, and data will be whatever youd like
[22:02] <mkquist> m_fulder: works fine
[22:02] <th^2> argh update manager tries to do install of cups!!
[22:02] <Oer> YellowTree, is it ? error says More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
[22:02] <m_fulder> mkquist whatever I like = storage disc?
[22:02] <m_fulder> mkquist  then fine :)
[22:02] <sweetpi> antIP: can you add them now?
[22:02] <th^2> how do i tell it that i dont want to install cups
[22:02] <mkquist> m_fulder: yep
[22:02] <snowveil> th^2, why don't you want cups?
[22:02] <YellowTree> where to find error log :/
[22:02] <snowveil> just uncheck it in update manager
[22:02] <Kyle__> th^2: Are you running ubuntu desktop or server?
[22:03] <th^2> snowveil, i have no use to it
[22:03] <th^2> Kyle__, desktop
[22:03] <p1und3r> does anyone know how to logout a user from a script?
[22:03] <Kyle__> th^2: CUPS really doesn't eat up much memory or CPU at all.  It doesn't get in the way
[22:03] <antIP> sweetpi: It's remounted, but I still can't access it.
[22:03] <snowveil> also, "sudo apt-get remove cupsd"
[22:03] <Kyle__> th^2: Then cups was installed by default.
[22:03] <mkquist> YellowTree: var/log
[22:03] <antIP> sweetpi: I mean, I still can't add the directory to my library.
[22:03] <th^2> Kyle__, yes and i removed it. now it wants to do a new install.
[22:03] <m_fulder> mkquist: cool but   now whebn pressing next which disc should I have chosen  the whole sda or only sda1 ?
[22:04] <mkquist> YellowTree: of you can use the 'log viewer'
[22:04] <sweetpi> antIP: you can play files from the mount point we made, but not add the entire mountpoint to the library, correct?
[22:04] <Kyle__> th^2: probably because one of the things that was updated requires it.  Why do you want it gone so badly?
[22:04] <mkquist> m_fulder: for?
[22:04] <antIP> sweetpi: Yup
[22:04] <Oer> YellowTree, in //var/log/apache2/error.log ?
[22:04] <th^2> Kyle__, i dont want useless programs
[22:05] <sweetpi> antIP: this makes no sense :p.. give me a min ill test here
[22:05] <Kyle__> th^2: There are plenty of other, more useless, more intrusive programs that ubuntu comes with.
[22:05] <p1und3r> how can i make a user logout from with a script?
[22:05] <m_fulder> mkquist ah nvm doesn't matter I think .. I thought that the one that I select in there there will the OS be installed...but it should automaticly choose the right "/" shouldn't it?
[22:05] <Kyle__> th^2: If you don't want useless programs, you need to look for another distro.  Really.
[22:05] <th^2> Kyle__, yes and im gettin rid of them
[22:05] <mkquist> m_fulder: right
[22:05]  * Kyle__ sighs
[22:05] <erUSUL> p1und3r: kill all his processes ?
[22:05] <SubCool> what a good program for recording your desktop?
[22:06] <erUSUL> !screencast
[22:06] <SubCool> i need to show someone that im following the process correctly.
[22:06] <p1und3r> erUSUL: good idea :p let me try that
[22:06] <th^2> Kyle__, that is true. used gentoo for a long time. but i really hate to install new distros. i pick one and stick to it
[22:06] <SubCool> erUSUL, ok- any recommended?
[22:06] <YellowTree> how to view files in terminal
[22:06] <erUSUL> SubCool: dunno; never done a screencast myself
[22:06] <sweetpi> antIP: I dont even have samba setup on this network.
[22:06] <Kyle__> th^2: As much as ubuntu annoys me sometimes, I use it because I want up to date packages I don't have to compile myself.
[22:07] <erUSUL> YellowTree: a text file? « less file »
[22:07] <SubCool> sweetpi, like it would work- haha
[22:07] <YellowTree> yes
[22:07] <NeKit> is Ubuntu Minimal only called Minimal? it already too 567 Mb and still downloading something
[22:07] <brandon420> guys need some help, just buillt a new computer, and cant get anything to install on it
[22:07] <Kyle__> th^2: If I recall correctly, any-and-every program that prints in ubuntu, is linked to cups.
[22:07] <sweetpi> antIP: if you want we can take this to pm and Ill see whats wrong
[22:07] <NeKit> *took
[22:07] <th^2> Kyle__, that is true. ie with slackware you have to compile like everything because repos are so small
[22:07] <SubCool> THANKS!
[22:07] <sweetpi> SubCool: true, I hate samba.
[22:07] <bgugi_> nekit: nything at all, or just ubuntu
[22:08] <Kyle__> th^2: CUPS is pretty cool, work keeping around even.  Go remove F-spot or something useless :)
[22:08] <th^2> how do i put stuff to .config/autostart?
[22:08] <m_fulder> mkquist okey installing then .. I've done exctly this way before and then when I booted up after the installation there was written Verifing .... and the OS didn't start up :S ... maybe it will go better this time though :P
[22:08] <brandon420> can anyone help me?!
[22:08] <NeKit> just I was recomended it for 1 Gb partition install
[22:08] <p1und3r> erUSUL: I tried kill -9 -1, is there a better command for this?
[22:09] <erUSUL> p1und3r: why -9; -9 is dangerous.
[22:09] <mkquist> m_fulder: sometimes you have to fiddle with grub2, i've found it can get a little confused
[22:09] <jrib> !startup | th^2
[22:09] <Kyle__> th^2: to run when you log in?  Well there is the GUI... I used that today since .login isn't respected (grr!).
[22:09] <YellowTree> how to view files in terminal ( textfiles )
[22:09] <antIP> sweetpi: I just realized that I can't even play the actual files. Can brows the directory but I can't even see the individual .mp3 files.
[22:09] <Kyle__> th^2: But using it without a gui would be what I really want.
[22:09] <p1und3r> erUSUL: even kill -1 doesn't exit me from the ssh session tho =/
[22:10] <th^2> Kyle__, i dont want to learn GUI ways to do things
[22:10] <sweetpi> antIP: chown adam.adam /mountpoint
[22:10] <jrib> YellowTree: less to read, nano to edit
[22:10] <sweetpi> antIP: *sudo
[22:10] <Ekips> Hrm, do you want the script to die p1und3r?
[22:10] <p1und3r> Ekips: yeah i need the script to die and user to be logged out
[22:10] <soloslinger> So I believe I am goin to create a mythbuntu machine.  Can anyone give me any advice on hardware or installation gotchas that I would be helpful to know?
[22:11] <Ekips> "kill" kills decently written software
[22:11] <Kyle__> th^2: Me neither, but this is a very gnome-specific distro sometimes.
[22:11] <akki_> my sounds r not working
[22:11] <Ekips> If you have to use kill -9, something is wrong with the script
[22:11] <erUSUL> p1und3r: sudo pkill -u usernamehere
[22:11] <Kyle__> Ekips: kill sends a signal to software: decently written software handles the signal appropriately.
[22:11] <p1und3r> erUSUL: ok lemme try that 1 out
[22:11] <th^2> Kyle__, too true. this is too unfree for me
[22:11] <Ekips> I just said that
[22:11] <Kyle__> Ekips: Poorly wirtten software will only handle the -9 flag decently :)
[22:11] <Ekips> I Just said that too :
[22:11] <Kyle__> s/flag/signal/g
[22:12] <Kyle__> Ekips: Ah yes
[22:12] <Kyle__> th^2: sorry dude.
[22:12] <Ekips> Yeah yeah, I know what a SIGHUP is etc, I've written my fair share of C
[22:12] <brandon420> guys i cant get a os to install on my new computer..... ideas?
[22:12] <erUSUL> No software can handle -9; no matter how well or how bad is written
[22:12] <Ekips> Indeed
[22:12] <Ekips> It's not handled by the program
[22:12] <Ekips> But ok
[22:12] <p1und3r> erUSUL/Ekips: pkill -u $USER still keeps my session open
[22:12] <Ekips> Let's not discuss technicalities :)
[22:12] <NeKit> brandon420: what you can't do exactly?
[22:13] <Ekips> p1und3r: The script is prolly outputting to your tty
[22:13] <YellowTree> jrib, how to close it again ?
[22:13] <Kyle__> Ahh ok, good point.
[22:13] <jrib> YellowTree: what are you using? less or nano?
[22:13] <brandon420> NeKit, it loads the bios, and just stops.
[22:13] <YellowTree> less
[22:13] <p1und3r> Ekips: i don't follow
[22:14] <p1und3r> Ekips: yes it is outputting to the terminal.. but i need to log the user out from it
[22:14] <erUSUL> p1und3r: type exit; hit enter
[22:14] <Ekips> In short: End it the way it's supposed to or -9 it if it doesn't respond to kill
[22:14] <Ekips> Hrm, won't help if it forks and outputs to tty
[22:14] <jrib> YellowTree: q
[22:14] <p1und3r> Ekips/erUSUL: yeah but when you run the script "bash <scriptname>" it only exit; the script and not the terminal
[22:14] <antIP> sweetpi: I did that
[22:15] <p1und3r> Ekips/erUSUL: and you can't exit&&logout or anything cause ur out of the script already
[22:15] <antIP> sweetpi: nothing has changed
[22:15] <sweetpi> antIP: pm?
[22:15] <Ekips> I'm kinda pondering what that script does by now
[22:15] <antIP> sweetpi ok
[22:15] <erUSUL> p1und3r: what is the purpose of the script?
[22:15] <Ekips> heh
[22:15] <Ekips> Seems I'm not the only one
[22:16] <p1und3r> erUSUL: the purpose is for a user to have a menu in unix, with an option to log out of the server, but I can't use exec bash <scriptname> and be cheap :p
[22:16] <YellowTree> ty
[22:16] <Ekips> Oh, you want a grahical exit option offered to users then
[22:16] <akki_> hie
[22:16] <nikon_> a
[22:16] <akki_> help me
[22:16] <Ekips> Which kills the menu and the session
[22:16] <erUSUL> p1und3r: what's wrong with the user using « exit » or « logout » himself?
[22:17] <Ekips> They are users erUSUL
[22:17] <erUSUL> herself*
[22:17] <Ekips> Don't expect too much from that side :p
[22:17] <p1und3r> Ekips/erUSUL: because script is meant for someone who knows nothing of unix
[22:17] <Ekips> Of course
[22:17] <p1und3r> Ekips: and yeah to wut u said before
[22:17] <Ekips> hrm
[22:17] <Ekips> How do they login?
[22:17] <Ekips> Locally?
[22:17] <p1und3r> Ekips/erUSUL: i've tried, exit, logout, kill -1, kill -9 -1, pkill -u $USER
[22:17] <p1und3r> through shh
[22:18] <p1und3r> erm ssh
[22:18] <erUSUL> p1und3r: it makes no sense; they can use an überscript from a menu. but they can not use the syymple « exit » unix command?
[22:18] <Ekips> erUSUL: They prolly haven't ever seen a CLI
[22:18] <th^2> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8278927/gnome.png why is this? i cant modify anything :(
[22:18] <p1und3r> erUSUL: yeah, it's a school thing.. i just can't figure it out
[22:18] <slow-motion> n8
[22:18] <p1und3r> erUSUL: in real life, exec bash <script> and using exit would work wouldn't it? :D
[22:19] <Ekips> p1und3r: It's ugly, but you could prolly kill their sshd process
[22:19] <erUSUL> p1und3r: if you want a menu entry that exists a user from his session just make that menu entry run « exit» for them
[22:19] <m_fulder> mkquist still here?
[22:19] <ewook> p1und3r: what was the assignment?
[22:19] <Ekips> spike    30030  0.0  0.0  81228  1792 ?        S    17:38   0:00 sshd: spike@pts/3
[22:19] <Ekips> spike@unetdev:~$ kill 30030
[22:19] <Ekips> -> session dead ;)
[22:20] <erUSUL> p1und3r: you do not need a script « exit » and logout been there all this time why reinventing the wheel ????
[22:20] <p1und3r> erUSUL: cause my professors a weenie i guess
[22:20] <p1und3r> ewook: to make a menu for a user that can log him out of ssh
[22:20] <m_fulder> when the installation got to 100% there was a restart needed so pressed the restart button on screan ... there was some text on the screen, the CD got out but now there was a test spamming on screen saying I/O error:S so I should manually restart now or what mkquist ??
[22:20] <ewook> p1und3r: a menu within the ssh-session?!
[22:20] <m_fulder> text*
[22:20] <ewook> gebus.
[22:20] <p1und3r> ewook: yeah :)
[22:20] <Ekips> ewook: ncurses?
[22:20] <ewook> Ekips: yeah..
[22:20] <Ekips> Why not?
[22:21] <p1und3r> it's a text menu with a while loop, nothing crazy
[22:21] <Ekips> In the earlier days of DOS people used to have .bat based menu's to start apps
[22:21] <p1und3r> it's just exiting the ssh session :|
[22:21] <ewook> Ekips: earlier? :P
[22:22] <Ekips> Yeah, in the later days they had windows 3.0/3.1
[22:22] <Ekips> Which wasn't an OS, just a shell on top of DOS
[22:22] <ewook> Ekips: I'm pulling your chain... those still exists but not really kicking of the programs anymore (or, shortcuts works in the same way I guess ;) )
[22:22] <Ekips> Ah
[22:22] <m_fulder> ok so now I've complete the installation but when I bootup there's just written Verifining DMI pool data............ but the OS doesn't start up why is that??? :(
[22:22] <p1und3r> ewook/erUSUL/Ekips: killall sshd, works lol so ugly
[22:22] <Ekips> p1und3r: Uhm
[22:23] <Ekips> Don't
[22:23] <Ekips> Really, don't :p
[22:23] <Ekips> If your root uses that menu, heh
[22:23] <p1und3r> Ekips: hahha i know
[22:23] <Ekips> Be very careful with killall
[22:23] <ewook> p1und3r: to kill the session, just kill the bash for the session ^^
[22:23] <ewook> p1und3r: or, the shell rather.
[22:23] <Ekips> Yeah, ewook, but people could launch multiple shells
[22:23] <p1und3r> ewook: how do i do that, because I couldn't kill the 1 BASH PID from ps
[22:23] <Ekips> tcsh in a bash etc
[22:24] <th^2> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8278927/gnome.png why is this? i cant modify anything :(
[22:24] <Jordan_U> p1und3r: What is wrong with "exec script"?
[22:24] <Ekips> It's complicated
[22:24] <p1und3r> Jordan_U: im not allowed :p
[22:24] <ewook> Ekips: yes? but we can't track that if we don't track the user's history tight.
[22:24] <Ekips> Well, it's a bunch of errors chanied together
[22:24] <nvucinic> hi, anyone noticed that countdown counter #2 is stucked @ 25 days ?
[22:25] <Ekips> ewook: You could kill the users ssh session on the pty he's on
[22:25] <Ekips> Always a hit ;)
[22:25] <ewook> :P
[22:25] <Jordan_U> p1und3r: So we're doing your homework for you or is there a non-artificial reason for that restriction?
[22:25] <Ekips> Hey, it's interesting homework
[22:25] <jrib> th^2: find ~/.gnome2 ~/.gconf ~/.config ! -user $USER
[22:25] <p1und3r> Jordan_U: ur doing my homework
[22:25] <Azendale> Is there a way to limit a vncveiwer program in the number it bits per pixel? I'm running it through a ssh tunnel and it tries to go full color when the connection isn't that fast.
[22:25] <p1und3r> Jordan_U: but i don't think it involves anything complicated.. like parsing ps with awk or anything..
[22:26] <Ekips> Yeah, that would work
[22:26] <Jordan_U> p1und3r: Are you allowed to colaborate with others on this assignment?
[22:26] <p1und3r> no1 knows awk yet, there has to be an easier way
[22:26] <p1und3r> Jordan_U: yeah
[22:26] <th^2> jrib, i just deleted all of those
[22:26] <mgolisch> killall sshd? :)
[22:26] <jrib> th^2: erm, what?
[22:26] <Ekips> Jordan_U: A teacher who teaches this but doesn't allow you to use the internet should be fired
[22:26] <p1und3r> thats what i did, and it works mgolisch.. but its ugly
[22:27] <p1und3r> and as another person said
[22:27] <p1und3r> if root uses the menu
[22:27] <p1und3r> lol
[22:27] <Ekips> Yeah :p
[22:27] <th^2> jrib, wanted default gnome back
[22:27] <Ekips> I've been there
[22:27] <jrib> th^2: have you logged out and back in since doing that?
[22:27] <Jordan_U> Ekips: There's a difference between using the internet and asking "experts" directly.
[22:27] <Ekips> Well, I did a killall eggdrop on a shellserver as root, which was fun too
[22:27] <Ekips> He isn't really asking "directly"
[22:27] <atunahan> hello people
[22:27] <Ekips> And next to that, the "experts" don't even have a clear solution
[22:28] <p1und3r> Jordan_U: i'm not amateur, I know my way around linux and i've helped people in this channel before
[22:28] <atunahan> ı am newbie of ubuntu
[22:28] <Ekips> I'm rather new here
[22:28] <p1und3r> Jordan_U: it's not like im a total noob asking for u to do my homework
[22:28] <Ekips> In the channel, that is :p
[22:28] <mgolisch> p1und3r: use pgrep -u $USER sshd|xargs kill -9
[22:28] <mgolisch> oh that doenst solve the problem either i guess
[22:28] <Ekips> mgolisch: One more check needed there in case the user is logged in twice
[22:28] <mgolisch> if you runt it as rooot
[22:28] <atunahan> i want to ask for some help about podcasting itunes clips
[22:29] <Ekips> Ah, right, kills the sshd heh
[22:29] <Ekips> Well, one could add an if
[22:29] <Ekips> No shame, all scripts/programs have a hardcoded check on uid 0
[22:29] <atunahan> how to watch itunes clips on ubuntu
[22:29] <mgolisch> acknopper: whats itunes clips?
[22:29] <p1und3r> I know the professor doesn't expect anyone to know what pgrep -u $USER sshd|xargs kill -9 does
[22:30] <Ekips> lol
[22:30] <p1und3r> he hasn't even taught piping, so I'm not sure what he's look for
[22:30] <p1und3r> lol
[22:30] <nvucinic> >>>> 1 more time:  hi, anyone noticed that countdown counter #2 is stucked @ 25 days ?
[22:30] <atunahan> which kind of software i should use
[22:30] <Ekips> Check your notebook or something
[22:30] <p1und3r> yea ill look at previous labs, thanks for your suggestions guys
[22:30] <Ekips> He prolly gave an easy (crappy) solution
[22:30] <cert_> hi
[22:30] <p1und3r> yeah lol
[22:30] <rww> nvucinic: works fine here
[22:30] <m_fulder> nice my new ubuntu installation worked now :)
[22:31] <p1und3r> if i find it, ill let u know how crappy it is
[22:31] <p1und3r> afk for dinner :)
[22:31] <Ekips> hehe
[22:31] <Ekips> Feel fre
[22:31] <Ekips> e
[22:31] <Ekips> Enjoy
[22:31] <FloodBot2> Ekips: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:31] <cert_> how can i get ffmpeg-devel to compile xbmc with external libs?
[22:31] <mgolisch> cert_: tell the configure script the location of the libs?
[22:31] <Ekips> Yes, dear botlike being, I'll chat there from now on and redirect everyone inhere to that site every 5 seconds
[22:31] <nvucinic> rww: it's showing 25 to me ...
[22:31] <Ekips> If all will comply
[22:31] <Jordan_U> p1und3r: "pkill -s 0" sounds about right.
[22:31] <Ekips> He isn't that far, clearly
[22:32] <cert_> mgolisch: mmhh
[22:32] <th^2> argh all my gnome panel things are grey. anybody know what is causing this? http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8278927/gnome.png
[22:32] <nvucinic> ubuntu.com/community/countdown -- option 2 - 25 days
[22:32] <mgolisch> th^2: lockdown?
[22:32] <erUSUL> th^2: pkill gnome-panel
[22:32] <rww> Ekips: stop pressing Enter repeatedly --> no more notes from floodbot.
[22:32] <Ekips> nvucinic: Moonphase and rotation of the earth, at a guess
[22:32] <atunahan> sorry people, i bored of you, could you help me for podcasting itunes clips downloading
[22:32] <Ekips> rww: I don't press enter that often?
[22:32] <xangua> th^2: just change your icon theme...
[22:32] <rww> Ekips: yes you do
[22:32] <rww> nvucinic: shows 17 here
[22:32] <erUSUL> !ipod
[22:32] <Ekips> Hm, only there because I had to correct myself :)
[22:33] <Ekips> And I was kidding, sigh, I wasn't seriously whining at a bot
[22:33] <Ekips> Unless that's the one that secretly passed the Turing test
[22:33] <diverted> can someone help me with this errormessage please: http://pastebin.com/vikzMaFM     I got it when trying to install chuck, an audio programming language
[22:34] <Ekips> #
[22:34] <Ekips> ugen_xxx.cpp:43:21: error: sndfile.h: No such file or directory
[22:34] <nvucinic> ok, it works now :)
[22:34] <Ekips> So your pakage depends on that file
[22:34] <Ekips> I'm thinking libsndfile
[22:35] <diverted> Ekips, yes but i downloaded all packages they said i need to install it. so how do i find out what package the file is in=
[22:35] <diverted> Ekips, oh thanks ill try that
[22:35] <atunahan> what kind of software should be used for downloading itunes podcasting clips
[22:35] <glebihan> diverted: try installing libsnbfile1
[22:35] <xangua> atunahan: rhythmbox, banshee¿
[22:36] <Jordan_U> diverted: apt-file search
[22:36] <grifo74> i try to share my internet 3g to other pc any help
[22:36] <Ekips> diverted: As you're compiling from source you likely need the -dev package too
[22:36] <diverted> yes im installing it atm
[22:37] <cert_> mgolisch: i'm trying with CFLAGS=-I/usr/include/libavcodec but does not work
[22:37] <m_fulder> anyway I've now got one HDD partition1 = OS  partition2 = Data-disc ... then I have one external HDD (USB) and one more internal with an old OS ... now my porblem is that I can't copy files from my external USB-HDD to my internal second partiotion Data-disc because "I don't have permissions to copy that file " :S .. Im loged in as root why is that???
[22:37] <Jordan_U> diverted: You realize that chuck is in the repositories, correct?
[22:37] <well_laid_lawn> !ics | grifo74
[22:37] <avi_> Hey all, what is a good solution for syncing my iPod touch with Ubuntu?
[22:38] <aeon-ltd> avi_: gtkpod?
[22:38] <diverted> Jordan_U, hmmm.. guess its always worth looking there first. no i didnt..
[22:38] <Ekips> Heh
[22:38] <avi_> aeon-ltd, Can that do iOS devices?
[22:39] <aeon-ltd> avi_: not sure, but i gotta say apple is really good at limiting options
[22:39] <erUSUL> !ipod > avi_
[22:40] <aeon-ltd> avi_: one way i do know, is jailbreaking and using ssh and/or open up a ftp server on the ipod touch. however i highly unreccommended
[22:40] <avi_> aeon-ltd, That's for sure. A linux native client would be really nice. And it's a shame they don't have one because millions use Linux.
[22:40] <Ekips> Wow
[22:40] <aeon-ltd> avi_: those millions are like 1% though
[22:40] <Ekips> They don't?
[22:40] <Ekips> Hrm, how do those things connect to an apple?
[22:40] <_BEAST> lol
[22:40] <_BEAST> rofl
[22:40] <well_laid_lawn> !lol
[22:41] <aeon-ltd> Ekips: on the back of the apple, if you look closely theres a usb port
[22:41] <Ekips> Now that's a rule I can agree with
[22:41] <avi_> aeon-ltd, Millions is millions. And this is Apple, they have tens of thousands of engineers. Surely 20 or so could be tasked with writing one and they could do it in no time at all.
[22:41] <Ekips> aeon-ltd: Funky, it's on my linux boxes too it seems
[22:42] <Ekips> My point was: If it works on OSX, why not on *nix?
[22:42] <aeon-ltd> avi_: yeah, but rewriting itunes and regular bug fixes to fit with simiultaneous windows and mac releases is gonna cost
[22:42] <Jordan_U> Ekips: DRM
[22:42] <Ekips> Heh, porting it from OSX to *nix should be trivial
[22:42] <erUSUL> !rockbox
[22:42] <Ekips> Aaah
[22:42] <avi_> aeon-ltd, Because Apple is strapped for cash :) They have literally tens of billions sitting in the bank collecting interest. It would be a drop in the bucket.
[22:42] <Ekips> sigh
[22:42] <Ekips> Got it Jordan_U
[22:43] <Ekips> Yeah, I'm just saying it shouldn't be much work technically
[22:43] <aeon-ltd> avi_: they'd rather spend it on PR
[22:43] <boatdink> can somebody tell me how to reset my mouse config. all the settings are screwed up
[22:43] <avi_> aeon-ltd, No doubt :)
[22:43] <numberGrey> is there a simple chmod command to not allow a file to be served by a webserver but accessable to scripts on the server?
[22:44] <fordfasterr> Q: what would prevent me from viewing a samba share from ubuntu desktop that works fine from an xp host in virtualbox on the same machine?
[22:44] <Ekips> numberGrey: chmod has 3 entities you can set 3 different permissions for
[22:44] <Jordan_U> Ekips: They work actively to break existing solutions with updates.
[22:44] <Ekips> Jordan_U: I see :s That's sad and completely wrong in many ways imo
[22:44] <numberGrey> Ekips: any recommended links on the topic?
[22:44] <erUSUL> numberGrey: wrong level. you have to configure that in the webserver. not in the filesystem
[22:45] <Ekips> numberGrey: That's everyone, the group and the user where the modes are read, write and execute
[22:45] <numberGrey> damn thats what I was hoping I didn't have to do, don't have permissions
[22:45] <Ekips> So if you want the user to be able to access his files and the webserver to read it, your "spots" are gone
[22:45] <Ekips> Which is indeed why you need to config it elsewhere
[22:46] <Ekips> erUSUL broke off my nicely built up explanation I guess :p
[22:46] <fordfasterr> i am using SME server, with user accounts.  I can type the username and password in the xp box and get a connection, but not from ubuntu via the "places > connect to server > windows share " path.
[22:46] <numberGrey> essentially I was hoping to block files from being served unless they are logged in.  This system is setup with php where everything is in the public folder.
[22:46] <glebihan> numberGrey: that should be done by putting the files outside of the server tree
[22:48] <Wazzzap> Watch my video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7crs3Ib6ZVI
[22:49] <Ekips> Get lost
[22:50] <jrib> th^2: you ask for help and then don't answer me :/
[22:50] <xbonesx> ok so i just did a fresh install and would like to know how to put these packages http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/7981/22245829.png from the update manager on a cd for use on a offline computer
[22:50] <DragonUbuntu> hey all
[22:51] <Jordan_U> !aptonCD | xbonesx
[22:51] <xangua> xbonesx: aaah...install updates¿
[22:51] <avi_> hey DragonUbuntu
[22:51] <xangua> ooh didn¿t read*
[22:51] <DragonUbuntu> anyone use songbird for an audio player? im having trouble finding an installer or binary for it
[22:51] <aeon-ltd> DragonUbuntu: development stopped for linux, sorry
[22:51] <erUSUL> DragonUbuntu: they stopped offering linux binaries
[22:51] <m_fulder> I don't have permission to create a new file on one partition of my HDD why is that? :(:(
[22:52] <erUSUL> DragonUbuntu: i read about a fork somewhere ....
[22:52] <Ekips> It's not really useful atm DragonUbuntu
[22:52] <erUSUL> !addingfs | m_fulder
[22:52] <xbonesx> Jordan_U: doing that will include those packages from the update manager, your positive?
[22:52] <Ekips> Amarok works I guess
[22:52] <aeon-ltd> DragonUbuntu: yeah a browser and separate music player is much better
[22:52] <xangua> DragonUbuntu: you can install the latest songbird with theese repositories http://www.getdeb.net/
[22:52] <Kyle__> Who manages ubottu?
[22:52] <xangua> 1.8 i believe
[22:52] <Jordan_U> xbonesx: No, I don't know the exact interface as I've never used it personally.
[22:52] <kelvie_> apt-proxy seems to be at least 5 years old... is it still useable today?
[22:53] <aeon-ltd> Kyle__: seeing as this is the official channel, i assume canonical
[22:53] <Kyle__> Because they _really_ need to add, "Don't add an external drive into the same volume group your / is on from"
[22:53] <Jordan_U> Kyle__: #ubuntu-bots-devel
[22:53] <xbonesx> so how should i do the updates so that i can use the aptoncd program?
[22:53] <m_fulder> erUSUL so how do I do if I want a partition that can store my data-files?
[22:53] <erUSUL> Kyle__: factoids are added by the ops. #ubuntu-ops
[22:53] <WXZ> is there a clean version of ubuntu?
[22:53] <WXZ> by that I mean where it doesn't install a bunch of programs for you?
[22:54] <Ekips> Hrm, Kyle__ might be right there :p
[22:54] <Jordan_U> !minimal | WXZ
[22:54] <Kyle__> erUSUL: Jordan_U: thanks.
[22:54] <m_fulder> erUSUL,  and I want it to be a linux-HDD
[22:54] <Ekips> WXZ: There's a minimal one
[22:54] <Ekips> ah
[22:54] <erUSUL> m_fulder: you can 1) chown/chmod the mount point to apropiate permissions 2) do that for folders inside the partition
[22:54]  * Kyle__ has had it happen when he was too tired to be paying enough attention.  The "I did WHAT?!" factor in the morning was amazing.
[22:54] <brandon420> guys, i cant seem to get my new computer to install ubunut, it wont even boot from the live cd, ideas?
[22:54] <Ekips> brandon420: Does it boot from any other CD?
[22:55] <acerimmer> brandon420: alternate install .iso?
[22:55] <erUSUL> !minimal | WXZ
[22:55] <brandon420> bi
[22:55] <brandon420> no it wont boot from anything, and i have tried 2 cds ordered from ubuntu
[22:55] <m_fulder> erUSUL,  I've done sudo chmod -R 744 /media/Data .. won't that be a reqursvie chmod for all files/folders inside media/Data? But still I can't create / copy a folder into media/Data :S
[22:55] <WXZ> thanks erUSUL, Jordan_YOU, Ekips
[22:55] <brandon420> acerimmer, Ekips
[22:55] <brandon420> ^^
[22:55] <Ekips> brandon420: Probably your bios boots from HD first
[22:55] <acerimmer> brandon420: can u boot from usb?
[22:55] <Ekips> brandon420: huh?
[22:56] <Ekips> Ah, RD
[22:56] <Ekips> heh
[22:56] <jkv> brandon420, set the boot order in your BIOS setup
[22:56] <spGrob> brandon420, have you set the boot seq in BIOS
[22:56] <brandon420> acerimmer, Ekips , i havent tried a usb, and i have it set to boot my cd drive first
[22:56] <Ekips> Ah, heh
[22:56] <brandon420> it just says insert media, and hit enter.
[22:56] <erUSUL> m_fulder: becouse the owner is root, so you want 775 or some such ( doing sudo chgrp users /mount/point )
[22:57] <Ekips> We can be fairly certain the CDs aren't all broken
[22:57] <belkinsa> Does OpenOffice have a IRC channel?
[22:57] <Ekips> So it's either your bios or CD drive that is
[22:57] <acerimmer> brandon420: silly? but which version do you have: 32 bit/64 bit? and does that match you machine?
[22:57] <Ekips> Ow, "acerimmer" is a nick
[22:57] <Ekips> Right, got it now
[22:57] <acerimmer> >>:)
[22:58] <Ekips> After being called an "ace rimmer" twice... :p
[22:58] <acerimmer> :(
[22:58] <brandon420> its the ubuntu 9.10 live cd, doesnt that contain both 32 and 64? and i have also tried 64 bit windows 7
[22:58] <Ekips> Aww, don't be sad, I like Red Dwarf :p
[22:58] <brandon420> its a amd quad.
[22:58] <Ekips> It's irrelevant brandon420
[22:58] <m_fulder> erUSUL, hm ok so the permission is 775 now but still I can't create files in my folder :S
[22:58] <m_fulder> partition*
[22:58] <belkinsa> Doesn't- you need download 64bit
[22:58] <Ekips> A bootable CD boots, 32 and 64 stuff comes into play much later
[22:59] <brandon420> either way, it wont install win7 64 bit.
[22:59] <avi_> Hey guys, I think I've come up with the best solution for iOS syncing with Ubuntu!
[22:59] <erUSUL> m_fulder: nothe the bit about changing the group too
[22:59] <belkinsa> Does OpenOffice have a IRC channel?
[22:59] <brandon420> im thinking maybe its a driver for the ide cd drive?
[22:59] <rashid> Peace all, is any one having issues using Pal Talk Express?
[22:59] <erUSUL> belkinsa: /msg alis list *openoffice*
[22:59] <m_fulder> erUSUL,  yeah I've done something like . sudo chgrp users /media/Data  aswell
[22:59] <xbonesx> Jordan_U: so how should i do the updates so that i can use the aptoncd program?
[22:59] <rashid> If so, any tips on how to resolve?
[23:00] <jcsteele> belkinsa, #openoffice.org
[23:00] <avi_> Virtualbox (USB capable vers) + Windows + iTunes + Shared folders in virtualbox + seamless mode. Working phenominally for me!
[23:00] <erUSUL> m_fulder: chmod 777
[23:00] <fordfasterr> avi_ cool !
[23:00] <brandon420> Ekips, acerimmer you still around?
[23:00] <Ekips> Well, when you have to VM windows to use an mp3 player, something is wrong imo avi_ ;)
[23:01] <avi_> Ekips, :) Shame that this is the best solution to this problem lol.
[23:01] <Ekips> brandon420: It might be the driver, try if booting a windows install disk works?
[23:01] <fordfasterr> avi_: I still can't even get virtualbox to detect the USB ports. lol
[23:01] <Ekips> If it doesn't, it's hardware/bios related
[23:01] <m_fulder> erUSUL,  now! finally but why do I need 777 , why isn't 744 enought if Im on the "admin-ubuntu" :P
[23:01] <brandon420> Ekips, it doenst. i have tried that.
[23:01] <m_fulder> root*
[23:01] <aeon-ltd> avi_: err, might need a not for everyone sticker on that, sounds like you need something like a pentium d or a low core 2 duo to do that smoothly
[23:01] <avi_> fordfasterr, Did you install from the ubuntu repositories
[23:02] <Ekips> brandon420: Then it's probably a broken CD player or its firmware
[23:02] <Ekips> If the BIOS settings are ok
[23:02] <brandon420> both work, lol, i took it out of my running computer.
[23:02] <erUSUL> m_fulder: becouse the owner is root the 7 permissions only apply to root ( when you use sudo )
[23:02] <erUSUL> m_fulder: anyway for a folder you allways need x so 44 makes little sense
[23:02] <mkquist> m_fulder: you still having problems?
[23:02] <Ekips> brandon420: How about your BIOS is broken and doesn't boot from CD?
[23:02] <brandon420> how do i fix that?
[23:02] <brandon420> lol.
[23:02] <avi_> It's not for everone, aeon-ltd. I'm actually running ubuntu and this VM (XP) under an iMac (ironically) that has 2.8 Ghz core2duo.
[23:03] <Ekips> brandon420: I mean, if it doesn't boot any OS CD, that's not exactly a problem for #ubuntu
[23:03] <spGrob> brandon420, chek the boot sequence in BIOS
[23:03] <m_fulder> erUSUL, ah root=sudo :O I thought that it was if I had many logins to my OS root was like windows admin :P
[23:03] <Ekips> spGrob: He did
[23:03] <brandon420> spGrob, i have
[23:03] <m_fulder> mkquist,  nope just solved them all I think :P
[23:03] <spGrob> Ekips, ups srry
[23:03] <Ekips> spGrob: And he can't boot ubuntu or windows install CDs
[23:03] <brandon420> Ekips, lol, yall are the smartest people i know.
[23:03] <Ekips> So well
[23:03] <vectoravtech> how do I change the run level from command?
[23:03] <Ekips> Thank you :p
[23:03] <m_fulder> mkquist, except the bugg with x64 ubuntu .. no way I could install it on my machine :(
[23:04] <Ekips> brandon420: Try another CD drive
[23:04] <m_fulder> but maybe my processor isn't 64 compatible or something
[23:04] <mkquist> m_fulder: what bug?
[23:04] <acerimmer> vectoravtech: init 6
[23:04] <mkquist> m_fulder: running x64 myself, runs fine
[23:04] <fordfasterr> avi_: yes
[23:04] <vectoravtech> ty
[23:04] <vectoravtech> so init 6 is the lower runtime?
[23:05] <avi_> fordfasterr, Then what were you expecting :P The free version (as in non-totally opensource) can't do USB.
[23:05] <vectoravtech> I need to lower to install envy ati then higher
[23:05] <avi_> fordfasterr, Just grab the version from the VBox website and you'll be set.
[23:05] <m_fulder> mkquist, the setup lagged really much, the bootup didn't work on CDs only DVDs and when booted from DVD it failed to install the OS I got an error where there was writte something about //filesystem.sq..
[23:06] <mkquist> m_fulder: check the cds? dvds?
[23:06] <m_fulder> mkquist,  now when I finally got it working with 32 bit Im scared of trying fixing 64 bit :P is it really that much difference?
[23:06] <m_fulder> mkquist, you mean boot from it and check for errors? .. already done that and it ended with succee
[23:06] <fordfasterr> avi_: is there an apt repository available for it?
[23:07] <mkquist> m_fulder: only if you do things like video encoding or such, something really processor intensive
[23:07] <mkquist> m_fulder: yeah, thats what I meant
[23:07] <vectoravtech> theres got to be two runlevels not just 6
[23:08] <vectoravtech> one is a terminal and the other is the X11
[23:08] <m_fulder> mkquist,  aha well this is only my servercomp , where I'll run a couple of css-servers, teamspeak servers, ventrilo servers, webservers .. etc. so I guess I wouldn't notice so much difference between 64 and 32
[23:08] <erUSUL> !runlevels
[23:08] <fordfasterr> ebox fuxored up my system
[23:09] <ishijoe> hi, i can't start evilwm from gdm any help!!!
[23:09] <m_fulder> btw another question... while copying files from one HDD to another which HDD rps is the important one? .. I mean is it more work for the one I copy from or the one I copy to?
[23:09] <archangelpetro> if you create a python library (with extension .so) can you just link it to /usr/local/lib ? and be able to import it fine from anywhere?
[23:09] <m_fulder> rom*
[23:10] <slapdragon> f
[23:10] <jmfedlp> #ubuntu-es
[23:10] <well_laid_lawn> m_fulder:  writes are more work then reads
[23:11] <m_fulder> aha oki thanks
[23:11] <h4f> is there a way to switch from 32 to 64 bit without uninstalling ?
[23:11] <erUSUL> h4f: no
[23:11] <h4f> thanks

[23:16] <h4f> acerimmer you are saying there is a way to convert 32 bit installation to 64 bit ?
[23:16] <acerimmer> xbonesx: upon boot you'll have a menu option to choose the environment
[23:16] <kristalfighter> hi
[23:16] <acerimmer> h4f: nafaik but ask again
[23:17] <xbonesx> acerimmer: kool thanks for your help
[23:17] <aeon-ltd> h4f: thats impossible, without migrating every package and rebuilding the kernel (essentially reinstalling but keeping /home)
[23:18] <ishijoe> aeon-ltd: i have try it with slim also
[23:18] <h4f> aeon-ltd  thats not a problem for me to redownload and reinstall. I just don't wan't to burn a cd and install from it
[23:18] <h4f> acerimmer do you know how can I make such transition. google doesn't answer my question
[23:19] <blakkheim> h4f: usb?
[23:20] <h4f> blakkheim: nope
[23:20] <kristalfighter> dove posso effettuare dei download???
[23:20] <blakkheim> why not?
[23:20] <erUSUL> !it | kristalfighter
[23:21] <h4f> blakkheim:  I can honestly but than what is the difference than writing a cd ?
[23:21] <Jesdisciple> Wow, XChat barfed...
[23:22] <blakkheim> h4f: you said you didn't want to burn a cd to install, so i suggested using a usb drive
[23:22] <ndxtg> does anyone know where can I find partimage.deb for 9.04? the partimage for 9.04 on repo was removed by someone
[23:22] <xbonesx> Jesdisciple: hahaha
[23:22] <xbonesx> Jesdisciple: how so?
[23:22] <blakkheim> ndxtg: isn't partimage in the repository?
[23:22] <Jesdisciple> for some reason it opened everything twice, and I was banned (???) on ##c++ so it registered two or more random names to try to get me in
[23:23] <ndxtg> blakkheim: someone removed it for 9.04 version
[23:23] <Jesdisciple> couldn't get my real, registered nick until I unjoined ##c++
[23:23] <Somelauw> I inserted a dvd but it won't run and gives me an error saying it couldn't read resource.
[23:23] <Somelauw> Why is that?
[23:23] <Jesdisciple> no clue how I got banned, I don't even talk in there...
[23:24] <xbonesx> Jesdisciple: i tether from a phone and when i get a call i lose internet and i disconnect then reconnect. one night a got a shit load of texts and i got banned from a channel for it hahaha
[23:24] <Somelauw> Oh, and I bought the dvd. So it is legal and supposed to work.
[23:24] <blakkheim> Somelauw: what dvd?
[23:25] <Jesdisciple> xbonesx: your texts get forwarded to IRC? O_o
[23:25] <xbonesx> Jesdisciple: but its kool if i get banned i just reset my phone and i have a new ip hahaha
[23:25] <Jesdisciple> lol
[23:25] <xbonesx> Jesdisciple: no i was disconnected from the net so i was disconnect and reconnecting in the channel, said i was flooding it...
[23:25] <Jesdisciple> xbonesx: o i c
[23:25] <Somelauw> blakkheim, does that matter? Well it was "Tekken".
[23:26] <Jesdisciple> xbonesx: you jury-rigged your cell to get wi-fi by it...
[23:26] <blakkheim> Somelauw: i mean, is it a movie?
[23:26] <Jesdisciple> xbonesx: nifty ;)
[23:26] <Somelauw> Yes
[23:26] <blakkheim> Somelauw: and do you have ubuntu-restricted-extras installed?
[23:26] <Somelauw> blakkheim, yes it is a movie.And it totally legal.
[23:27] <acerimmer> Somelauw: blue ray or regular dvd?
[23:27] <xbonesx> Jesdisciple: sure did, palm pre, very easy to do too
[23:27] <blakkheim> Somelauw: whether it's legal or not is irrelevant. can you browse the dvd's files?
[23:27] <Somelauw> blakkheim, not yet. Do I need that. It didn't complain about codecs and such.
[23:27] <blakkheim> Somelauw: yes you need it
[23:28] <Somelauw> acerimmer, just an ordinary dvd.
[23:28] <Kyle__> If I add lucid-proposed to my apt/sources.list will it want to update everything in the proposed archive?
[23:28] <blakkheim> Somelauw: sudo aptitude -y install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[23:29] <Somelauw> blakkheim, yes I can browse the dvd from something like media.
[23:29] <outlaw94> --help
[23:29] <xbonesx> ok so i just did a fresh install and would like to know how to put these packages http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/7981/22245829.png from the update manager on a cd for use on a offline computer

[23:32] <frank___> Hello?
[23:32] <otay> Does anybody have root (/) on LVM? I can't get it to work for Ubuntu. It works on Fedora though (same system (mutliboot))
[23:33] <xbonesx> acerimmer: unfortunately i dont know what every package is and that would be a lot of work to find every one in the synaptic package manager, is their an alternative to this?
[23:34] <acerimmer> xbonesx: sorry don't have one ready.
[23:34] <Kyle__> Anyone know how to search packages in a specific repository using apt-cache?
[23:34] <frank___> Can anybody help me with muting the speakers when I plug in some headphones?
[23:35] <xbonesx> Kyle__: http://www.ccl.net/cca/software/UNIX/updating-redhat/apt-howto/how-to-use-apt-cache.html
[23:37] <Kyle__> xbonesx: I'm trying to search the lucid-proposed release though.
[23:37] <dotanitis> Hello2all
[23:38] <Neo_the_chosen_o> hello
[23:38] <hdon> hi all. recently i noticed that when i switch users, there are no sound devices available for use or configuration unless i first log out of my other sessions. what gives!
[23:38] <frank___> Can anybody help me with muting the speakers when I plug in some headphones?
[23:38] <xbonesx> the downloaded files from synaptic package manager are located in '/var/cache/apt/archives/'
[23:39]  * Kyle__ has a particularly annoying bug that's choking his lab-machines.
[23:39] <Kyle__> xbonesx: Yes, yes they are.
[23:39] <BlaDe^> Hi guys, I'm currently running 9.10 -- last time I went to 10.04 (Admittedly it was beta) I had no network connectivity and it borked my install
[23:39] <BlaDe^> I want to try it again for the native iPhone support, but is there a way I can backup?
[23:39] <blakkheim> BlaDe^: image your drive
[23:40] <frank___> you should just be able to make a image backup
[23:40] <daedaluz> BlaDe^: copy-paste from phone?
[23:40] <BlaDe^> I have to image the entire drive?
[23:40] <blakkheim> if you want a backup of the whole OS, yeah
[23:40] <BlaDe^> Is there anything I could backup to just revert back to 9.10?
[23:40] <blakkheim> no
[23:40] <Somelauw> Okay, my dvd still won't start.
[23:41] <BlaDe^> hmm. Do you think i'm likely to have the same issues as last time? Before my Wifi would only stay connected for 10-15secs then would die
[23:41] <frank___> using VLC?
[23:41] <Somelauw> It says that it can't find the location and that I might not have permission to open it.
[23:41] <Kyle__> BlaDe^: if you don't have too much in the way of customisations, and stuff in /usr/local, you could just backup your /home and /etc to a CD/DVD/BRD, and save a package listing.
[23:41] <frank___> Can anybody help me with muting the speakers when I plug in some headphones?
[23:41] <Kyle__> BlaDe^: that way you can re-install without having to make a whole image, and prettymuch get your system back to this state.
[23:41] <BlaDe^> yeah
[23:41] <dotanitis> can someone help me to exec some util on a file when it's directory has spaces in the directoy name?
[23:41] <BlaDe^> I think I'll risk it, if worst come sto worst I'll backup core files and go back to 9l10
[23:41] <blakkheim> dotanitis: use a \
[23:42] <BlaDe^> thanks guys
[23:42] <Kyle__> BlaDe^: dpkg --get-selections should give you a list of packages I think.
[23:42] <blakkheim> dotanitis: this\ is\ an\ example
[23:42] <Somelauw> blakkheim, acerimmer: I did what you said.
[23:42] <kens1962> how do i install a program through terminal
[23:42] <acerimmer> Somelauw: and??
[23:42] <frank___> Can anybody help me with muting the speakers when I plug in some headphones?!?! Its really annoying and I have no clue how to do it
[23:42] <dotanitis> blakkheim its works but i have another problem... when i insert the filename in a variable i cannot use it
[23:42] <frank___> sudo apt-get install programname
[23:43] <BlaDe^> Upgrading to 10.04 now.
[23:43] <Somelauw> accerimmer, It says that it can't find the location and that I might not have permission to open it.
[23:43] <frank___> YAY :D
[23:43] <dotanitis> HI="this\ is\ an\ example"; file $HI
[23:43] <yaaar> howdy
[23:43] <frank___> Can anybody help me with muting the speakers when I plug in some headphones?
[23:44] <ZykoticK9> dotanitis, if you use double quotes " you don't need the \s
[23:44] <acerimmer> Somelauw: confirm; you installed restricted extras??
[23:44] <ross_> hello does anyone have experience installing OSHAN in their homes?
[23:44] <xbonesx> BlaDe^: http://www.debianadmin.com/backup-and-restore-your-ubuntu-system-using-sbackup.html
[23:44] <dotanitis> ZykoticK9 10x ill try...
[23:44] <Somelauw> acerimmer, yes
[23:44] <ZykoticK9> acerimmer, Somelauw FYI dvd support is NOT in restricted extras, it's separate
[23:45] <acerimmer> ZykoticK9: more plz/
[23:45] <Flor> hy
[23:45] <ZykoticK9> acerimmer, Somelauw you can see my directions at http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/enable-dvd-video-playback
[23:46] <kens1962> alright i downloaded the programin terminal now how do i find it
[23:47] <mattgyver> kens1962, you can try which <package name>
[23:47] <kens1962> bittorrent
[23:47] <kens1962> how do i find it

[23:55] <tripelb> rolandpish, yes I know.

[23:55] <fordfasterr> anyone here versed in samba ?
[23:56] <tripelb> mattgyver, yes. I did that but the Apply button still stays grey.

[23:56] <kens1962> how do i find a program i just installed
[23:56] <Kyle__> Ugh.  Hurray, this time it's xinit that got blocked.
[23:56] <rolandpish> llutz, does that command work if the cdrom is bootable?
[23:56] <frank___> kk, i gotta go eat dinner soon so yeahh... my email is fwjs28@gmail.com if ya need it
[23:57] <Kyle__> "INFO: task xninit:1167 blocked for for more than 120 seconds.
[23:57] <Kyle__> And then a crash.

[23:57] <zatan> is anybody of you using "MOCP" audio console player?

[23:57] <mattgyver> frank___, that would get me what I need to know and i can pm or email you directions whichever.
[23:57] <ZykoticK9> tru3fate, can you uninstall kvm?  might be the easiest, you'll might have to run "sudo apt-get auto-remove" (only do if prompted after kvm removal to remove anything else it may have installed), obviously if you need both then you have an issue.
[23:57] <rolandpish> ok, I'll try it then. Thanks!
[23:57] <frank___> okie dokie :)
[23:58] <tripelb> mattgyver, that page I linked to will give you all the instructions, similar if not exactly what you said. Have you dont it?
[23:58] <frank___> http://pastebin.com/qnxsMm8K
[23:58] <mattgyver> tripelb, no i use opendns because its faster in my area
[23:58] <frank___> there ya go mattgyver
[23:58] <nixbox> hi all, i am trying to compile a kernel (wireless-testing 2.6.35) using make-kpkg, the kernel seems to be compiling fine along with modules, but when deb packages have to be created i get an error saying "package linux-image-2.6.35-wl+ not in control info"
[23:58] <tripelb> rolandpish, I was saying to do what I said. or try it.
[23:58] <kens1962> how do i find a program i just installed
[23:59] <tripelb> mattgyver, what is opendns? OK I'll look it up.
[23:59] <ZykoticK9> dotanitis, i'm not clear on what you are trying to do (you commands don't seem quite correct), if you need spaces then you have 2 ways to deal with them 1) escape\ the\ spaces\ like\ this or 2) "use double quotes around the whole thing"
[23:59] <rolandpish> tripelb, Cool. I'll try your suggestion. Thanks a lot!
[23:59] <frank___> g2g email me at fwjs28@gmail.com thank you guys soo soo much :D
[23:59] <mattgyver> tripelb, its the same thing but it also graphs information for you and lets you control the dns as well
[23:59] <mattgyver> like block stuff
[23:59] <Jordan_U> nixbox: Have you tried just using the mainline kernel "ppa"?
[23:59] <mkquist> kens1962: whereis
[23:59] <xbonesx> Can you get just a KDE mimic theme for ubuntu gnome???
[23:59] <kens1962> where is what
