[00:00] <expt625> whoop passed the spam bot test
[00:00] <jags> I guess its format is fat32 though, how do i setup this drive to automount?
[00:00] <ppq> Zelozelos, the vlc plugin is mozilla-plugin-vlc
[00:01] <expt625> check out an app called pysdm Gui based for mounting hdds and the like
[00:01] <ppq> Zelozelos, totem doesn't use mplayer
[00:01] <denverdave> Does anyone have any suggestions on getting my mic record using sound recorder?
[00:01] <expt625> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/pysdm-graphical-storage-device-manager.html
[00:01] <bastid_raZor> jags: add it to fstab, read this page for more information. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab
[00:01] <mac9416> bastid_raZor, thanks. Looks like I have some reinstalling to do.
[00:02] <DroneWork> jungledisk pricing is not nearly as good as mozy  :(
[00:02] <Zelozelos> ppq do i install it with apt-get install gecko?
[00:02] <Zelozelos> nvm ill find it ty
[00:02] <jags> I'm kinda a newb, I read a bit about fstab but I was hoping I could automate it :o
[00:02] <bastid_raZor> mac9416: if you removed it, possibly 'ubuntu-desktop' may pull in the all the lost things..
[00:02] <MikeWaters> stbain - any free versions? Ubuntu One gives you 2Gb free for example
[00:02] <ppq> Zelozelos, it's gecko-media-player
[00:02] <ppq> np
[00:02] <mac9416> bastid_raZor, roger that, good idea.
[00:02] <jags> but I'll check out pysdm and if that doesn't work I'll read up
[00:02] <stbain> MikeWaters, no free version that I'm aware of
[00:02] <ppq> Zelozelos, sorry, it's gecko-mediaplayer.
[00:03] <Zelozelos> ppk ok ty for the knowledge hope it works better ;)
[00:03] <fcuk112> i am trying to connect to irc.gnome.org through xchat-gnome, but it's not in the server list and i do not see any option to add a new server, any idea?
[00:03] <maco> fcuk112: is gimpnet an option? cuz its the same thing
[00:03] <MikeWaters> There is always the "email it all to yourself" option! We used to do that with VAX/VMS :-D
[00:03] <Ken8521> fcuk112, click Add on the Network list, give it a generic name.. then click Edit, and set up the server
[00:04] <ppq> fcuk112, first: use a better irc client. xchat-gnome isn't as good as xchat
[00:04] <maco> fcuk112: also, here's how to add them http://www.linuxchix.org/connecting-linuxchix-irc-using-xchat.html
[00:04] <maco> fcuk112: oh wait sorry my link is for normal xchat :-/
[00:04] <aclee> hello im a newbie to ubuntu having problems
[00:04] <Ken8521> xchat-gnome isn't that bad... it's not as good as xchat, but it's not that bad
[00:05] <fcuk112> maco, thanks gimpnet is an option, i'll try that.
[00:05] <MikeWaters> fcuk112 I ended up using Pidgin after a LOT of grief!
[00:05] <maco> Ken8521: i actually prefered -gnome over normal xchat. easier config screen IMO
[00:05] <sunny1> Anyway what to remove all the user left the room msgs in pidgin?
[00:06] <Ken8521> maco, xchat is just as easy when you get the hang of it. but yea.. i used xchat-gnome for several years, over xchat, for the same reason.. and i still can't warm up to irssi
[00:06] <aclee> is there a chat client that supports webcam and voice that goes through aim and yahoo.....and i need step by step instructions on how to download it
[00:06] <MikeWaters> I am a Pidgin beginner - sorry :P
[00:07] <MikeWaters> Just works the best of any I have tried
[00:07] <DroneWork> Has anyone gotten Mozy to work with Ubuntu?
[00:07] <Ken8521> aclee, is gyachi still around, for Yahoo?.. i'm not sure bout AIM
[00:07] <aclee> can i use my webcam with pidgin
[00:07] <yabuk> I need a "id3 tag demuxer" to play a mp3 file, where do I find it?
[00:08] <Ken8521> i thought webcam/voice was one of the reasons for dumping Pidgin and going w/ Empathy?
[00:08] <sunny1> MikeWaters: I'm using pidgin as well, love it, except for all the damn left the room msgs
[00:08] <Ken8521> sunny1, pidgin is a great IM client... but it sucks as an IRC client....
[00:09] <Ken8521> to many good irc clients int he repositories to spend time getting frustrated by that
[00:09] <nuestra> It took a bit of searching, but I got irssi working with ssl via the instructions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1010780&page=2
[00:09] <lazyPower> sunny1, its a plugin.
[00:09] <MikeWaters> Sure better than the ones I se 10+ years ago though LOL
[00:09] <Ken8521> MikeWaters, that's up for debate.
[00:09] <lazyPower> sunny1, if you havent already, install the useful pidgin plugins package from the software center
[00:10] <MikeWaters> You haven't LIVED with the old ones :)
[00:10] <Zelozelos> awsome ppq its workin perfectly, would have never got it w/o your help thanks
[00:10] <sunny1> lazyPower: I believe I've them already...looking for the plugin now
[00:10] <ppq> Zelozelos, you're welcome :)
[00:11] <DroneWork> Has anyone gotten Mozy to work with Ubuntu?
[00:11] <lazyPower> sunny1: Join/Part Hiding 2.6.6 is the title.

[00:13] <lazyPower> Anyone here actively using gwibber in 10.04 x64?
[00:16] <dhruvasagar> Hi, can anybody tell me how to save the video captured by xvidcap !?
[00:17] <enav> hi fellas... i got 2 displays connected to a single nvidia video card... but my motherboard have an integrated ATI video card....   y successfully can use  the 3 displays same time under windows... but the ATI card don't want to work under linux
[00:18] <enav> dhruvasagar: just find a youtube videotutorial those are nice
[00:18] <dhruvasagar> enav: hmmm ok
[00:18] <dhruvasagar> enav: regarding your prob, have you installed the proprietary ATI drivers?
[00:18] <RockerBoy402> on my broadcom card i keep having to do rmmod b43 and modprobe b43 in order to get my wireless to start. When the computer boots up it works fine, but if I ever have the screen saver come on, or the computer goes idle, i have to do that to re-enable my wireless card.  this gets annoying because i can't let stuff download on my pc unattended!
[00:18] <RockerBoy402> any ideas?
[00:18] <enav> dhruvasagar: nop
[00:19] <enav> i mean yes
[00:19] <dhruvasagar> enav: hmm !? how do you mean 'yes' when saying 'no'?
[00:19] <blakkheim> RockerBoy402: turn the screensaver off?
[00:19] <enav> if i install nvidia ubuntu deactivate ATi and so forth
[00:19] <expt625> question samab is installed and i need to restart it   /etc/init.d/samba restart   ... but /samba does not exist ??
[00:19] <DroneWork> anyone successfully used backblaze with ubuntu?
[00:20]  * blizakster_ Tries to find and or make a Linux compatible Web Crawler that sends him a email when said keyword is found.
[00:20] <dhruvasagar> enav: you shouldn't install nvidia...
[00:20] <dhruvasagar> enav: when you go to System->Administration->Hardware Drivers what options does it show for you !?
[00:20] <enav> i got nvidia driver working with 2 displays  but i want to use 3 displays using the ATI
[00:21] <enav> AI and nvidia drivers
[00:21] <enav> ATI*
[00:21] <dhruvasagar> enav: but why are you using nvidia drivers for a ATI card ?
[00:22] <lazyPower> expt625, if you're using a recent version of ubuntu, its services smbd restart
[00:22] <noel_g> I installed Wubi on an NTFS partition and I would like to move my installation to a real partition.  I have created a 2nd partition, but how do I move my data/conf there?
[00:22] <RockerBoy402> blakkheim: had it off.  problem is is when the computer goes idle.  and i don't mean hibernate or sleep (because the damn computer never does that, sadly), but just idle
[00:22] <DroneWork> LOL.  Backblaze FAQ Look, I'm an Advanced User, and I Already Have a Set of RAID Drives with Perl Scripts to Copy My Files Back and Forth Between My 18 Home Machines that are in a Datacenter I've Built in My Closet. Why Do I Need Backblaze?
[00:22] <hdgc> anyone know about this error with cheese libv4l2: error setting pixformat: Device or resource busy
[00:22] <enav> let me explain again: i got 1 nvidia video card, and 1 integrated ATi video card,    2 display already working with nvidia but ati is disabled
[00:23] <dhruvasagar> hdgc: essentially you're cam is left open...being used by some process
[00:23] <dwarder> is it ok to store virtualbox hdd on ntfs partition?
[00:23] <dwarder> store == use
[00:23] <dhruvasagar> hdgc: you might want to check something like ps -ef | grep video in a terminal
[00:24] <enav>  dwarder virtualbox HDDs  are fake HDDs   they are just files   the format doesnot matter
[00:24] <tonsofpcs> enav: sure it does.
[00:24] <enav> does what?
[00:25] <tonsofpcs> matters.
[00:25] <enav> well is hard to explain
[00:25] <denverdave> I ran alsamixer and found my mic in there and now I can here me breathing through my speakers :) but I still cant record using sound recorder any ideas? OSS maybe?
[00:25] <hdgc> dhruvasagar: 1000     14379 12329  0 18:25 pts/1    00:00:00 grep --color=auto video
[00:26] <dwarder> enav: so it is ok?
[00:26] <dwarder> enav: all this active writing to ntfs from linux?
[00:26] <tonsofpcs> enav: no, not really.  The file system that you store your virtual filesystem on matters a great deal for performance.
[00:26] <tonsofpcs> dwarder: you aren't writing to NTFS from linux.
[00:26] <dwarder> tonsofpcs: ?
[00:26] <enav> dwarder: virtual box is provide you a way to test systems and OSs.... just create your machine worry free
[00:27] <tonsofpcs> You're writing ext3 or whatever you decide to a flat file.  That file is being written on NTFS
[00:27] <dwarder> enav: only test? i want to use my virtual machine
[00:27] <bsmith093> i have an mkv file that im converting to an mp4 with handbrake. it has multiple audio tracks which apparently handbrake can preserve. my question is, how do i burn the mp4 file ( with multiple audio tracks) to a dvd
[00:27] <dwarder> tonsofpcs: i do if i put virtual hdd on ntfs partition
[00:28] <enav> test  use..  whatever you want bro... y got 2 web servers running on VB  very nice
[00:28] <enav> dwarder: tell me what do you want to do?
[00:28] <dwarder> enav: i worry that their hdd be located at ntfs partition
[00:29] <tonsofpcs> dwarder: no, you don't.  Linux writes to ext# or whatever you tell it to.  Virtualbox writes that data to a file that resides on an NTFS partition.
[00:29] <enav> you are tallking about real disk or the fake ones???
[00:29] <dwarder> enav: i have real ntfs partition available to my host linux, and i want to put virtual hdd on it
[00:31] <enav> dwarder: NTFS is not bad, just avoid use FAT32 as base disk....
[00:31] <dwarder> enav: no perfomanse issues
[00:31] <dwarder> performance*
[00:31] <dwarder> ?
[00:32] <enav> dwarder: maybe NTFS and EXT4 work good but  the problem with FAT32 is that format is error prone
[00:32] <hdgc> dhruvasagar: other procces arent usin video
[00:32] <dwarder> enav: no fat32 in my situation
[00:32] <dhruvasagar> hdgc: but the error you're getting indicates that...
[00:32] <enav> dwarder: good
[00:33] <dwarder> enav: so, i guess then i'm ok
[00:33] <dwarder> enav: thank you for your answers
[00:33] <enav> dwarder: good
[00:33] <dwarder> indeed good :)
[00:33] <RockerBoy402> Does anyone know why when my computer idles the wifi becomes disabled and i have to rmmod b43 and than modprobe b43?
[00:34] <dwarder> RockerBoy402: a quick assumption check for power management settings?
[00:34] <enav> dwarder: regardless the real disk format you can create  virtual HDDs with the format of your choice (FAT, NTFS, EXT2 3 4)
[00:34] <dwarder> i see
[00:35] <dhruvasagar> guys how to check what process is using a device say /dev/video0 ?
[00:35] <enav> dwarder: you are going to use Vb to install some OS i guess
[00:35] <RockerBoy402> dwarder: i have tried to disable the power management settings to no success...however, why would I want to do that to fix my problem?  I don't really relish the idea of my computer running 24x7 without ever spinning down/hibernating/sleeping...
[00:36] <enav> what is wrong with the floodbot stuff
[00:36] <dwarder> enav: here is my situation i have host linux on ext4 and i have partition with ntfs and i put virtual windows xp disk on that ntfs partition (btw xp uses ntfs :))
[00:36] <dwarder> and i run VB from that linux
[00:36] <bsmith093> not to be rude but can anyone hear me?
[00:37] <nuestra> loud and clear
[00:37] <Votan> ok, question: I've got an SSD, a Raid 0 built with 2x 1TB HDDs and 1x 1TB HDD for Storage. NOw I want to do the following: INstall Windows on the RAid 0 and ubuntu on the ssd, both be able to access the data hdd. Will this work, or do I have to get both installs on the same disk ?
[00:37] <jrib> bsmith093: irc is a text-based medium :)
[00:38] <bsmith093> ok then does anyone know of a way to burn multiple audio tracks in a video file to a dvd without having to just pick one (get them all)?
[00:38] <chetnick> any way to change contact list theme in Empathy?
[00:38] <RntedMule> Is there a howto or at least some direction I can get pointed to, to join an NT4 domain from Ubuntu (32bit Desktop 10.04). Ive found plenty on using kerberos and active directory on win2k3+ domain controllers, but nothing about joining an old style domain
[00:38] <enav> dwarder: im using ubuntu 10.04, my real HDD is EXt4 and y have 2 machines running ubuntu Server edition those machines have fake HDDs using Ext4 also, and finally i got 1 machine running XP, it have a fake HDD using NTFS.... everything runs like a charm
[00:39] <enav> chetnick: i don't like empathy
[00:40] <RntedMule> Votan: best bet is to have a partition on linux formatted as NTFS and use FUSE/NTFS-3G to access it
[00:41] <RntedMule> Obviously, you wont be able to make your whole Ubuntu system NTFS
[00:42] <chetnick> enav: ha?
[00:42] <enav> no body know how to installs an nvidia and ATI video card same time?
[00:43] <dwarder> is it possible to change backgrounds every 5 minutes or so?
[00:43] <dwarder> randomly
[00:43] <dwarder> automaticaly
[00:43] <enav> animated indeed
[00:43] <Rome> the route to my linux host gets lost all the time. what can it be?
[00:43] <dwarder> automatically*
[00:43] <enav> yep
[00:44] <enav> youtube it
[00:44] <chetnick> Rome: get lost? You mean it disappears from routing table?
[00:44] <enav> rome: depends
[00:44] <Rome> chetnick: i get disconnected and have to wait few minutes....
[00:44] <dwarder> enav: for me?
[00:45] <dwarder> i guess so
[00:45]  * dwarder searches
[00:45] <enav> rome: you are using wifi i guess
[00:45] <geirha> dwarder: Easily done with a bash script
[00:45] <Rome> enav: is this wrong?
[00:45] <dwarder> geirha: and cron?
[00:45] <chetnick> Rome: You have to be more specific, I have no clue what are you talking about.
[00:45] <pie_time> im trying to delete something but it says i dont have permissions. how do i fix this?
[00:45] <dwarder> geirha: do you have something written?
[00:45] <Votan> RntedMule my question is more, does it work to have linux on an ssd and win on a raid 0 and does grub find the windows installation?
[00:45] <geirha> dwarder: No, cron's lowest resolution is minutes
[00:45] <enav> rome: tell us about your network config
[00:46] <geirha> dwarder: two sec
[00:46] <chetnick> enav: route to his linux gets lost because he uses wireless?
[00:46] <pie_time> HOW  do you delete something when its telling you you dont have permissions?
[00:46] <Chell> Why not let Feh do a slideshow (at random maybe), and set Feh as background in .Xsession?
[00:46] <Rome> chetnick: ok guys, i have a connection right now, i can post some config files
[00:46] <enav> we dont know why
[00:46] <chetnick> pie_time: sudo rm filetoberemoved.
[00:47] <pie_time> its in the trash chetnick
[00:47] <chetnick> pie_time: sudo rm -Rf /home/user/.Trash/fileorfoldertobedeleted
[00:47] <geirha> dwarder: http://paste.ubuntu.com/502359/
[00:48] <chetnick> Rome: Why don't you start first by telling us what is your problem.
[00:48] <Rome> http://paste.pocoo.org/show/268816/ http://paste.pocoo.org/show/268817/ http://paste.pocoo.org/show/268818/
[00:48] <geirha> dwarder: Make it executable and run it from System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications
[00:48] <aaroninfidel> Hi, when I log into my www-data user I can't seem to use the backspace key without linux yelling at me with ^H
[00:49] <aaroninfidel> anyone know how to fix that? ^^^
[00:49] <geirha> dwarder: And change /some/folder  to a folder containing your jpgs of course.
[00:49] <LjL> aaroninfidel: maybe the user is just using a strange shell. try typing "bash" as the first thing you do as the user.
[00:49] <Rome> chetnick: i have a server 192.168.2.3 here in my wlan. using TP-Link TL-WN321G with rt73usb wireless chipset. route to this host gets lost all the time
[00:50] <jimi_> Is it possible to downgrade python to 2.5 ?
[00:50] <LucidGuy> Anyone seen the movie Catfish?
[00:50] <dwarder> geirha: thank you, will try now
[00:50] <seidos> !ot | LucidGuy
[00:51] <chetnick> Rome: If route to that host get lost, then the problem is in the machine trying to access the server, not the server itself. YOu are trying to access server from Ubuntu box?
[00:51] <aaroninfidel> LjL: yeah, that was the problem, do you know how I can fix this at login?
[00:51] <pie_time> chetnick, there is no such thing as "~/.Trash"
[00:51] <LjL> aaroninfidel: you can edit /etc/passwd and change the shell from whatever it is to /bin/bash. be careful editing that file though.
[00:52] <pie_time> chetnick, stop pulling advice from where the sun doesnt shine
[00:52] <pie_time> sorry
[00:52] <pie_time> im trying to delete something but it says i dont have permissions. how do i fix this?
[00:52] <Rome> chetnick: the server is on dyndns. it doesn't matter where you access it from. even the router here losses the route to the server
[00:53] <ChogyDan> !trash | pie_time fyi
[00:53] <Ken8521> pie_time, there used to be a ./trash
[00:53] <chetnick> pie_time: It works for me very well, every time. Sorry to hear you lost your .Trash dir in home directory.
[00:53] <Ken8521> prior to 9.04 or 9.10.. can't remember which
[00:53] <Bilz> hello
[00:54] <Bilz> quick question: im trying to listen to radio nline: http://www.talksport.co.uk/radio/listen-live but for some reason its not working on firefox, ubuntu 10.04. what am I missing?
[00:54] <chetnick> pie_time: And I'm sure if you just tried to google it, you would find it at the top of the search results. Try it, you'd be surprised what useful info you might find.
[00:54] <nuestra> Bilz: maybe gstreamer codecs (ugly)
[00:54] <crf> hi ... How would I go about changing the name of the Applications menu to just "apps"?
[00:54] <sunny1> Bilz: Did you install the codecs?
[00:54] <Rome> how can i use the old rt73usb firmware drivers instead of wireless-firmwre drivers?
[00:55] <enav> rome  give me the ifconfig output
[00:56] <Rome> http://paste.pocoo.org/show/268819/
[00:56] <chetnick> pie_time: you could just run "sudo find / -name .Trash\* -print" and find all "trash cans" on your system.
[00:56] <enav> your signal is ok?
[00:56] <Ken8521> Bilz, do you have VLC, i just got it working w/ vlc
[00:56] <Bilz> nuestra, sunny1 , i think they installed when i tried to play something a tv episode in the media player, so yeah
[00:57] <Bilz> Ken8521, ill install it now.
[00:57] <Ken8521> ok..
[00:57] <ChogyDan> !trash | chetnick fyi
[00:57] <Rome> enav: right now yes, just a matter of time
[00:57] <chetnick> ChogyDan: got it.
[00:57] <Ken8521> Bilz, after you install VLC, open VLC, click Media/Open Network Stream... Copy/Paste this line there.. then hit play   http://www.talksport.net/talksport-liveUK_LL.asx
[00:57] <sunny1> Bilz: Maybe diff. codecs for online radios, doesn't firefox tell you what codec you're missing
[00:58] <Bilz> thanks Ken8521
[00:58] <Bilz> sunny1, nope, doesnt say i need anything
[00:58] <dwarder> where does defauld ubuntu backgrounds located?
[00:58] <ebovine> On Centos I can perform a remote install using VNC and PXE.  Does Ubuntu also support that?  I'm not finding anything on Google.
[00:58] <Ken8521> sunny1, the codec is apparently not available for linux... i'm using 10.10, and it tried to search it out, and said it's unavailable
[00:58] <maco> dwarder: /usr/share/wallpapers/ i think
[00:58] <jpds> dwarder: /usr/share/backgrounds/
[00:58] <nuestra> works in my vlc
[00:59] <dwarder> thank you
[00:59] <Bilz> Ken8521, works great, thanks all
[00:59] <Bilz> good night :)
[00:59] <nuestra> cool

[00:59] <lucas> have the sources of 2.6.35.5 and compiled successfully the kernel. Is it possible to apply the patch for the new 2.6.35.6 and compile only the changes?
[00:59] <Ken8521> just remember, vlc is awesome.
[00:59] <Ken8521> lol
[01:00] <pie_time> can anyone pls tell me how to empty a trash that's on another drive?
[01:01] <Ken8521> pie_time, usually when you unmount that drive, you'll get a popup saying there's trash that needs emptied
[01:01] <lucas> have the sources of 2.6.35.5 and compiled successfully the kernel. Is it possible to apply the patch for the new 2.6.35.6 and compile only the changes?
[01:02] <Ken8521> pie_time, also... open the drive you want to delete the trash on, and click "View/Hidden Files".. do you see a ./Trash-1000 folder there?
[01:02] <Ken8521> open it up and clear it if you do.
[01:03] <crf> nm ... I'm reading http://library.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/menustructure-2.html.en
[01:03] <crf> so if I can't do it after reading that ... I'll come back ...
[01:04] <lucas> have the sources of 2.6.35.5 and compiled successfully the kernel. Is it possible to apply the patch for the new 2.6.35.6 and compile only the changes? Or do I have to compile the whole thing over again?
[01:05] <ChogyDan> lucas: pretty sure you have to recompile.  Unless the change is in a module...
[01:05] <lucas> ChogyDan: Is this the way this is generally done?
[01:06] <ChogyDan> lucas: AFAIK
[01:07] <Blue1> i thought there was a way to get to a boot menu off the livecd.
[01:07] <davidreza> hi
[01:07] <davidreza> anyone who can help me?
[01:08] <lucas> ChogyDan: So the patches come down just to save some bandwith? what would be the purpose
[01:08] <ChogyDan> lucas: I don't follow
[01:08] <davidreza> Can somebody help me to configure the two finger scroll in my laptop?
[01:10] <davidreza> this is what you call SUPPORT? =S
[01:10] <wgrant> davidreza: You appear to have waited slightly over a minute. Please be patient.
[01:10] <wgrant> What is the issue?
[01:10] <davidreza> Can somebody help me to configure the two finger scroll in my laptop?
[01:10] <davidreza> wgrant, thanks for answering
[01:11] <wgrant> davidreza: Is it not turned on by default?
[01:11] <wgrant> What model is the laptop?
[01:11] <wgrant> Which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[01:11] <Ellis> ok im having a little trouble with dvd ripping is this the proper place to get help? if so can someone help?
[01:12] <Ellis> hello?
[01:12] <davidreza> wgrant, Sony VAIO CW15
[01:12] <davidreza> and no, it isn't turned on by default
[01:13] <brummbaer> ellis, what are you trying to rip?
[01:13] <Ellis> is there anyone in here ?
[01:13] <wedwo> Ellis, hi. Just state your problem and if someone can help they will
[01:14] <davidreza> I have already installed some packages, like gsynaptics, tpconfig, and gpointing-device-settings
[01:14] <Ellis> i stated my problem i am reallyu new to ubuntu using 10.04 i downloaded the stuff i needed to decode dvds but now i cant rip. i have a network storage drive which i rip dvds too so they can be watched anywhere in the house via my network
[01:14] <davidreza> but the option for two finger scroll in System > Preferences > Mouse
[01:14] <tris2k> anyone doing grails dev on linux
[01:14] <brummbaer> ellis, handbrake is a great utility
[01:14] <davidreza> is unavailable
[01:15] <Ellis> will it rip and change format to mp4 or avi so as to save space?
[01:15] <brummbaer> ellis, it'll turn the dvd into a magic ball of light if you ask it too. it's very capable
[01:17] <Ellis> wow magic balls of light are just a little to unpredictible to have in my brand new house but think you for the recommendation last question is do i just install and run or does it require additional setup?
[01:17] <brummbaer> ellis, it's available in the Ubuntu Software Center, and there's documentation here: http://trac.handbrake.fr/wiki/HandBrakeGuide
[01:17] <brummbaer> ellis, it's an easy setup
[01:17] <brummbaer> you may want to look at preferences before ripping to make sure destination format is what you want
[01:17] <Ellis> ok thank you so very much and have a great day/night
[01:17] <brummbaer> thanks! you too!
[01:18] <davidreza> this is a capture of my Touchpad preferences

[01:18] <Fluffy> Can anyone help me with a server usb install? The installer seems to require me to have a cd...
[01:20] <posciak> hi, my laptop (ThinkPad T43) doesn't have a windows key, so I thought I'd map its Fn key to work as the windows key. I looked up its keycode in xev, got 151. Then I created an ~/.Xmodmap file with two lines in it: keycode 151 = Super_L and add Mod4 = Super_L. Then I run xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap. But it doesn't seem to work as expected. Any suggestions please?
[01:21] <Ellis> brummbaer, is there a specific source i need? cand find it in ubuntu software center
[01:22] <davidreza> .
[01:25] <Jorjon> hi
[01:26] <Jorjon> how can i open *.so files?
[01:26] <posciak> Jorjon: what do you mean by "open" ?
[01:26] <Jorjon> im trying to install adoble flash plugin
[01:27] <hdgc> Jorjon: for 64bits??
[01:27] <brummbaer> hey ellis, sorry, was away for a second
[01:27] <Jorjon> yes... but the file is a *.so
[01:27] <Jorjon> libflashplayer.so
[01:27] <Ellis> i cant find it dude
[01:27] <brummbaer> yeah, surprisingly i don't see it in my repo either... i seem to remember it having been there
[01:28] <Ellis> i even tried installing through terminal
[01:28] <Ellis> and also how do i direct a comment toward you?
[01:28] <brummbaer> ellis, you're right, i apologize for the misinformation. it's not in there, i'm looking for the repo you need
[01:28] <brummbaer> ellis, just mention my nick in your response
[01:28] <Ellis> ok thanx
[01:28] <Ellis> brummbaer ok gotcha
[01:29] <Jorjon> so how can i install a *.so file?
[01:29] <bushbaby> Ellis, brummbaer, 0.9.4 is no longer available due to compatibility issues with the newer version of gnome. is of the official website so it seems handbrake is off ubuntu for now. you can still get nightlys though
[01:29] <Ellis> brummbaer ive only been using ubuntu for about three days but im used to the concept from having a jailbroken iphone
[01:29] <brummbaer> thanks bushbaby. you think it's ok to install from the handbrake-ubuntu ppa?
[01:29] <Firefishe> What is the command line syntax that will let me run fsck at the next bootup?
[01:29] <Braber01_> Ahh thank god! an IRC freenode chat via a web browser :)
[01:30] <bushbaby> brummbaer, could be. I haven't personally. It's up to personal preference i guess..
[01:30] <Ellis> brummbaer whats the next best to use?
[01:30] <Ellis> nightlys?
[01:31] <posciak> Jorjon: put the file into the proper plugins directory of your browser
[01:31] <brummbaer> ellis, dvdrip will do the trick though the UI may not be as sexy as handbrake
[01:31] <abstrakt> Jorjon, you don't really "install" so files
[01:31] <Braber01_> guys I just switched from the Login GUI to the Login Shell, now every time i run the command startx I get a popup box saying that my key ring has  not been activated on login
[01:31] <abstrakt> Jorjon, what you do with it to achieve what you want may be highly dependent on what you want
[01:31] <Ellis> brummbaer ok ill try it and thanx again
[01:31] <abstrakt> s/may/is/
[01:32] <hdgc> Jorjon: sudo cp libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins
[01:32] <brummbaer> ellis, yeah, good luck. please let me know if you have other questions
[01:32] <hdgc> and sudo cp libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
[01:32] <hdgc> Jorjon: restar firefox..
[01:32] <abstrakt> that seems like a... questionable, method of installing flash to me
[01:32] <brummbaer> jorjon, i put libflashplayer.so into ~/mozilla/plugins/ and it works fine
[01:33] <abstrakt> brummbaer, maybe you meant ~/.mozilla/plugins
[01:33] <brummbaer> abstrakt, it sounds like he's going for the new adobe square flash, which is native 64 bit
[01:33] <abstrakt> ah
[01:33] <brummbaer> abstrakt, good catch ;)
[01:33] <maco> abstrakt: its what the flashplugin-installer package does
[01:33] <hajmola> the new flash totally bugs out Firefox for me
[01:33] <kuttumiah> hello everybody, i am new here. how can i may join?
[01:34] <maco> kuttumiah: its a tech support channel. if youve got a question, ask it. if youve got an answer to an asked question, give i
[01:34] <maco> *it
[01:34] <Braber01_> After I switched form the GUI login to the Login SHELL when i run `startx` i get a popup box prompting me to enter my password to actvate my keyring any ideas on how I can fix that?
[01:34] <Ellis> brummbaer thanks ive got it installing now hopefully it meets my needs
[01:34] <maco> Braber01_: you can set the keyring password to an empty string, which will mean your saved passwords are not encypted
[01:35] <maco> Braber01_: gdm unlocks the keyring during login if the keyring and login password match, in the default setup
[01:35] <Ellis> Brummbaer ok now im getting a lil irritated. it wont let me install it because it says it requires untrusted software. there is no option to download anyway
[01:36] <brummbaer> bwuh?
[01:36] <nuestra> i installed gnome-splashscreen-manager, but it crashes & says: /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/gnome-splashscreen-manager/splash_screens.rb:192:in `last_write': Unrecognized image file format
[01:36] <Braber01_> how would I go about doing that? I have no clue and my aunt has no clue about Ubuntu or Linux
[01:36] <brummbaer> ellis, will you try arista? sorry to keep referring diff software, but arista looks a bit more modern than dvdrip
[01:36] <Ellis> brummbaer ok ill try this one
[01:36] <maco> Braber01_: applications -> accessories -> passwords & encryption keys (or something like that...has keys for the icon)
[01:36] <kuttumiah> hey maco thanks for your complement.
[01:37] <maco> Braber01_: change the password on the login keyring
[01:37] <nuestra> this is meerkat, & i cannot install usplash. it depends on a few packages that are "not going to be installed".
[01:37] <maco> !10.10 | nuestra
[01:37] <zego> anyone know of a good *terminal* (headless server) dc++ client?
[01:38] <nuestra> ah, thanks
[01:38] <Braber01_> Thank you maco, however I've loged in, with the login shell so I don't understand why the keyring is unlocking when I use the shell to login
[01:38] <maco> Braber01_:  some application is requesting that it be unlocked, possibly the network manager
[01:39] <maco> Braber01_: it would be /automatically/ unlocked (without you typing a password) if you used gdm. because you got rid of gui login, you need to manually unlock it by entering the password...unless you set a blank password
[01:39] <Ellis> brummbaer ok same thing refusing due to untrusted software thanks for all your help but screw it im sick of dealing with it tonight ill just buy another laptop for that purpose alone
[01:39] <Braber01_> okay thank you now I understand :)
[01:39] <`AmR> how i can install sun java in 10.4 and posix dev?
[01:40] <maco> !java
[01:40] <brummbaer> ellis... you may want to look at the repos you've enabled, make sure you've installed the gpg keys for all third party repos you may have added...
[01:40] <brummbaer> damn
[01:40] <brummbaer> missed
[01:40] <Braber01_> `AmR: i'd do sudo apt-get install eclipse that will give you all of the java tools you need at least it did I'm not sure any more
[01:40] <`AmR> i do this in command line so this not work it's server pc
[01:40] <zego> again, anyone know of a good headless/terminal dc++ client?
[01:41] <maco> `AmR: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list and uncomment the partner lines
[01:41] <maco> `AmR: then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[01:41] <aaroninfidel> anyone know how I can figure out if .htaccess is working properly?
[01:42] <brummbaer> aaroninfidel... .htaccess does a lot of things, what do you want to test
[01:42] <zego> aaroninfidel: depends on your specific trouble. If it's just user permissions, try going to a bunch of protected pages without signing in
[01:42] <Jorjon> ok it is working, thanks!!
[01:42] <aaroninfidel> zego, brummbaer I've tried RewriteRule ^test.html$ index.php and when I go there it doesn't work.
[01:43] <maco> aaroninfidel: is mod_rewrite enabled?
[01:43] <aaroninfidel> maco: yes
[01:43] <maco> aaroninfidel: have you restarted apache since enabling that module?
[01:43] <aaroninfidel> yes
[01:44] <sebikul> aeronfidel: you need to add "RewriteEngine On" at the top line of your .htaccess
[01:44]  * Braber01_ Dislikes Being ahead in his Java Programming class
[01:44] <aaroninfidel> sebikul: I've tried that
[01:45] <abstrakt> Braber01_, nah, don't dislike it, just use that time to learn something worthwhile (aka, something that's not Java)
[01:45] <zego> aaroninfidel:  are you the sysadmin or at least an apache admin so you can check which mods are enabled?
[01:45] <maco> Braber01_: just gives you a chance to go work on a more fun language instead!
[01:45] <aaroninfidel> zego: yes
[01:45] <aaroninfidel> zego: I've got root
[01:45] <abstrakt> Braber01_, or study up on somethingi Java related that you can kick ass with like spring/struts
[01:46] <Braber01_> um it's a beginning java corse all the stuff we've done so far was Text-Based
[01:46] <abstrakt> Braber01_, I was the same way in CS 101 in college, I got there and I was the only one raising my hand and after the class I talked with the teacher and he was like "yeah, you're cool, you obviously don't belong here, it's a requirement but if you ace all your other classes no one is gonna prevent you from graduating"
[01:46] <abstrakt> Braber01_, JSP is all "text based"
[01:46] <zego> aaroninfidel: is htaccess working elsewhere?
[01:47] <maco> abstrakt, Braber01_ -->  #ubuntu-offtopic for programming/school chat, please
[01:47] <Braber01_> yeah My Teacher is cool, some times I think she gives me too much credit </end rant>
[01:47] <abstrakt> Braber01_, yeah or maybe #java ... o.O
[01:47] <zego> aaroninfidel: as in do you have another htaccess file that is working or other commands in the same file that are working?
[01:47] <aaroninfidel> zego: no
[01:48] <aaroninfidel> zego: I'm in the middle of setting up the server for production.
[01:48] <aaroninfidel> zego: and its a pain in the ass -_-
[01:48] <zego> aaroninfidel: I know the feeling, I assure you
[01:48] <The_Paco> the samba options for Ubuntu are about an order of magnitude more complex than OpenSUSE's were, is there any kind of recommended reading/websites specifically for help setting up a simple WINS server?
[01:49] <maco> The_Paco: so ya know, if you dont get an answer here, there's also #ubuntu-server
[01:49] <zego> aaroninfidel: in your Directory tag for the folder in the actually site configuration, make sure you have "AllowOverride All"
[01:49] <The_Paco> maco, thanks, I'll check them out
[01:49] <zego> aaroninfidel: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/core.html#allowoverride for more info
[01:50]  * Braber01_ feels weird not using irssi
[01:50] <urzk> hi, is there any ubuntu channel for general chat?
[01:50] <maco> !ot | urzk
[01:50] <aaroninfidel> zego that's the problem both are set to none
[01:50] <Braber01_> urz: #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:51] <urzk> thanks
[01:51] <zego> aaroninfidel: yeah, I always forget that one...and forget that I forget that one...
[01:51] <aaroninfidel> zego: this is my first time setting up a server, do you recommend anything I should do for a LAMP setup to go smoothly?
[01:51] <`AmR> i try sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin sun-java6-jre but i got E: Couldn't find package sun-java6-bin
[01:51] <maco> `AmR: is the partner repository enabled?
[01:52] <zego> aaroninfidel: keep the apache reference open at all times and google handy. I personally try to make as many site configurations as I can (in sites-available) and just turn things on and off as I go
[01:52] <zego> aaroninfidel: what are you setting up exactly?
[01:53] <`AmR> i don't know i have lines
[01:53] <`AmR> deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid main universe multiverse
[01:53] <aaroninfidel> zego: I've got a server over at 100tb.com for a company that has multiple aliases.
[01:53] <`AmR> deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-security main universe multiverse
[01:53] <maco> `AmR: grep partner /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:53] <Stavros> hello
[01:53] <Stavros> my battery indicator went away, does anyone know how i can restart it?
[01:53] <zego> aaroninfidel: aliases meaning url's/domain names?  does each page basically go to the same stuff or is each site different?
[01:53] <aaroninfidel> zego: and the server has 8 ip's so all of their private stuff they want kept on 1 ip, and all of their public on another.
[01:54] <`AmR> maco: i do it
[01:54] <`AmR> so ?
[01:54] <maco> `AmR: did it say anything back?
[01:54] <`AmR> nop
[01:54] <maco> `AmR: put this in your sources.list:   deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu lucid partner
[01:54] <aaroninfidel> long story short, its a pretty advanced config for a beginner, but time are hard and they're not frugal with their money so they are making me do it...
[01:55] <weekly> Question: I have a machine thats spewing out kernel messages into my terminal, i can still use the terminal but these line keep appearing, how do i make them stop!?
[01:55] <Stavros> battery indicator, anyone?
[01:55] <maco> `AmR: then "sudo apt-get update"
[01:55] <zego> aaroninfidel: well, that's not to bad then.  You can have each apache virtualhost listen on a specific IP (or multiple virtualhosts on an ip) and then just firewall off the intranet site and setup a proxy or any other number of ways to secure the internal stuff
[01:55] <Braber01_> um where can I find more information on ubottu and it's commands?
[01:56] <bushbaby> Stavros: The Default setting are for the indicator to come up only when charging or discharging, this can be altered under General in System->Preferences->Power Options.
[01:56] <aaroninfidel> zego: and that all sounds well and good, but I have no idea how to do most of that.
[01:56] <zego> aaroninfidel:  as for doing the public sites, in addition to listening on an IP, you can do Named Virtual Hosts
[01:56] <Stavros> bushbaby: it's discharging
[01:56] <Stavros> bushbaby: oh, ubuntu isn't detecting this
[01:56] <Stavros> sucks
[01:56] <zego> aaroninfidel:  it should just be <VirtualHost 255.255.255.255:80> for a site configuration on a given IP and port
[01:56] <aaroninfidel> zego: nor do I know too much about networking in general, I've only taught myself how to code.
[01:56] <bushbaby> Stavros: How do you mean?
[01:57] <aaroninfidel> zego: yeah, I've set that much up so far.
[01:57] <Stavros> bushbaby: i'm not plugged in, and it's showing up as charged
[01:57] <aaroninfidel> the firewalls & proxys are what went over my head.
[01:57] <hideki> ...
[01:57] <zego> aaroninfidel: sorry, that's just one option.  Essentially you can secure the intranet site either with just Apache security, or something like requiring a proxy
[01:58] <bushbaby> Stavros: has it worked before?
[01:58] <zego> aaroninfidel: the former should really be fine, but it depends on your security needs
[01:58] <Culero> anyone here ever fix the inability to access your own trashcan /without/ working around it by deleting everything via terminal?
[01:58] <Stavros> bushbaby: yeah, it just bugs out intermittently
[01:58] <`AmR> i do it
[01:58] <Stavros> bushbaby: i plugged it in, just in case
[01:58] <maco> `AmR: ok now you can install java
[01:59] <Stavros> i purged postgres from my system and now i can't reinstall it, does anyone know what i can delete to purge everything?
[01:59] <bushbaby> Stavros: could be a dodgy connection with the battery or general wear and tear. how old is the battery?
[01:59] <zego> aaroninfidel: proxies and firewalls are the nutjob way I do things since I was bored
[01:59] <Stavros> bushbaby: a year or so
[01:59] <zego> aaroninfidel: anyways, for multiple domains you are looking at named virtual hosts http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/vhosts/name-based.html
[01:59] <aaroninfidel> zego: nothing really needs to be secure on an intranet, the content just needs to be separated via IP so one alias of the company doesn't look like they're part of another alias (even though they are)
[02:00] <zego> aaroninfidel: so a separate virtualhost which may or may not have a login will be fine then
[02:00] <hideki> ubuntu: an ancient african word, meaning "I can't configure Debian"
[02:00] <bushbaby> Stavros: If the bugging out if reasonably recent that could be it.. Does a reboot usually stop it failing?
[02:00] <IdleOne> !ot | hideki
[02:00] <bushbaby> is*
[02:00] <Stavros> bushbaby: generally yes
[02:01] <zego> aaroninfidel: using the named virtualhosts thing I have 3-ish domains (.com, .net, etc) all with different virtualhost sites listening on the same IP
[02:01] <Stavros> bushbaby: it's fine, i don't use it that much

[02:02] <bushbaby> Stavros: It could just be a fault in reading the remaining charge from the battery, can't see why that would affect the charging/discharge cycle though..
[02:02] <aaroninfidel> zego: I've been setting up each domain seperately  with a unique config each time, is their a way to making things easier? I know on lighttpd it can do dynamic domains
[02:02] <Stavros> bushbaby: it doesn't, the applet just doesn't detect the battery as discharging and doesn't get shown

[02:03] <maco> `AmR: dont know whats wrong with that package
[02:03] <`AmR> sorry this error i got
[02:04] <zego> aaroninfidel:  not sure, I've never used lighthttpd.  I dabbled in nginx and enjoyed it but I'm not sure it's easier.  If the configurations are the same with multiple domains you could use ServerAlias and list ALL the possible names for the server (wildcards are allowed).  The actual Server name is just what it reports itself as really and an alias
[02:04] <bushbaby> Stavros: oh i see, apologies it's rather late here! I'm not sure what this could be, as i said could be the battery just generally wearing and the applet being unable to correctly read the data? I have an old dell that does the same, as for a fix i'm not sure..
[02:04] <zego> aaroninfidel: so if you had sitea.com and siteb.com you might just be able to do ServerAlias site*.com
[02:04] <aaroninfidel> zego: ah, well thanks for the support :)
[02:04] <zego> aaroninfidel: no worries, best of luck
[02:07] <`AmR> so what i do :(

[02:09] <`AmR> ok
[02:10] <BradGranath> Am attempting to install D-Link DWL650+ PCMIA wireless nic.  Has an acx100 chipset.  Supposed to be supported "out of the box"  Currently running Lucid (just installed).  One thing leads to another and I'm building linux-headers, and Making drivers and all sorts of **** that's way out of my league.  Currently I'm being told that "Wireless Extension Support" is "DISABLED".  Further research directs me to install the linux-res
[02:10] <noisewaterphd> jsec: apache runs on port 80 by default, it's the router that needs to do the port fwding
[02:10] <isw> This might be a long shot but has anyone figured out a way to install vim for 10.10 beta?
[02:11] <DarkStar1> hello ppl. I'm hoping there's someone here who has managed to install ubuntu on a macbook
[02:11] <jsec> noisewaterphd: I've got port 80 forwarded, and I can access the pages in the www/ folder from any computer on my local network, but I can't from any external computer.
[02:11] <bushbaby> Stavros: Sorry i couldn't help more! This thread seems to indicate a general inaccuracy with the applet anyhow http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1063649.html . good luck!
[02:11] <jsec> DarkStar1: me
[02:11] <DarkStar1> It's my 1st mac so I need some advice
[02:11] <jexmex> I can communicate with network pcs by hostname for while, but then I stop being able to, any ideas what could cause that (I can still ping the network pcs with ip though)?
[02:11] <noisewaterphd> isw: not running 10.10 yet but if it isn't in the repositories (check for name changes), then you could definitely just compile from src
[02:12] <noisewaterphd> jsec: router/firewall isn't allowing outside access then
[02:12] <Stavros> bushbaby: yep, looks lke it, thanks!
[02:12] <jsec> noisewaterphd: GAH. Disabled the firewall on the router already. There's gotta be something else then. Thanks though.
[02:12] <DarkStar1> jsec: Just bought a acbook earlier and cba to learn about the system atm. So I need advice and warnings on installing lucid 64. Do I install it via boot camp or just plug the cd in?
[02:13] <jsec> DarkStar1: see my pm
[02:13] <bsmith093> does tovid support multiple audio tracks
[02:13] <Braber01_> sombody needs to add the tcsh,csh and ksh shells to the !sh group of commands
[02:14] <bsmith093> all it says is you can sullpy a list of tracks and it will encode them all, but what does that mean for the finished mpg file
[02:14] <maco> Braber01_: but that command just shows graphical apps for accessing whatever shell you want, not bash-specific
[02:15] <Braber01_> I know , I was just thinking some may not either know of them or choose to acknolage them
[02:15] <weekly> Question: I have a machine thats spewing out kernel messages into my terminal, i can still use the terminal but these line keep appearing, how do i make them stop!?
[02:15] <pie_time> can anyone tell me how to keep the same set of rules simultaneously for both wlan0 and eth0?
[02:16] <snipe> new ubuntu user here .. can anyone recommend some good reference material to learn the os from?
[02:16] <maco> weekly: i think that's due to a long-standing (3-4 years) bug... not much you can do though i think they'll only spew into the first terminal you use, so maybe just switch to a different one?
[02:16] <maco> !manual | snipe
[02:17] <snipe> thank you
[02:17] <pie_time> maco, the manual is about the least interesting way to learn about ubuntu
[02:17] <Braber01_> !thank you | snipe
[02:17] <maco> pie_time: ive never actually read it...
[02:17] <weekly> maco: ugh it carries thru to the other terminals too, this sucks!!
[02:18] <pie_time> can anyone tell me how to keep the same set of rules simultaneously for both wlan0 and eth0?
[02:19] <weekly> maco: anything else you could recommend to fix this?
[02:19] <superkuh> Where goes gedit store it's cache and configuration? I have a temp file, /tmp/tts.txt which changes character encoding often. Gedit doesn't know about this and tries the same encoding every time when viewing, making it garbled. sudo gedit fixes this, so it's a user config problem...
[02:19] <superkuh> Er, does.
[02:20] <snipe> i read some things about running windows in vm under ubuntu , will windows be more prtected running it that way?
[02:20] <maco> weekly: no sorry
[02:20] <pie_time> can anyone tell me how to keep the same set of rules simultaneously for both wlan0 and eth0--- in FIRESTARTER?
[02:20] <maco> snipe: itll be its same old insecure windows, but you can be a smart user and only web browse on your ubuntu, restricting non-internet-y things to teh windows vm
[02:21] <maco> pie_time: in firestarter, no, but with ufw, yes
[02:21] <maco> pie_time: default with ufw is to apply to all interfaces
[02:21] <IDWMaster> I'm working on porting some networking stuff for my business from windows to Ubuntu. It was originally written in .NET, so I was considering MonoDevelop; then I heard of KDevelop (C++), which also worked amazingly well. So I was wondering if anything is 'better' about using KDevelop or MonoDevelop as an IDE.
[02:21] <pie_time> maco, i need it in firestarter
[02:21] <maco> pie_time: and firestarter's been unmaintained for aaaages. plus ufw is a part of a default ubuntu install
[02:21] <maco> pie_time: why does it need to be firestarter?
[02:22] <Braber01_> IDWMaster: what programming language are you experanced in?
[02:22] <AlbertoP> IDWMaster: go with monodevelop if you use Mono
[02:22] <IDWMaster> Both C# and C++
[02:22] <pie_time> maco, long story x_x
[02:23] <IDWMaster> Is there OpenGL support in the Ubuntu version of Mono?
[02:23] <Braber01_> IDWMaster: then go with whichever language you feel most confortable with keep in mind that Mono dosn't have full documention yet though
[02:23] <AlbertoP> IDWMaster: for C++, use eclipse + CDT. Much better than whatever else
[02:23] <maco> pie_time: well i cant help. its a limitation of firestarter that it treats interfaces separately all the time. i suppose you could manually modify whatever iptables rules files it generates, but.. thats all i got
[02:24] <AlbertoP> IDWMaster: not sure, but you can simply pull mono from their original repos, which has the last developments
[02:24] <Braber01_> I use Eclipse for Java
[02:24] <Braber01_> not that anybody cares
[02:24] <IDWMaster> OK. There seems to be OpenGL support for both IDEs
[02:25] <IDWMaster> It's an addon package from the repos
[02:25]  * AlbertoP wonders: network and openGL
[02:25] <AlbertoP> :)
[02:26] <IDWMaster> libgtkglarea0.0-cil
[02:27] <IDWMaster> Strange. GL assembly doesn't show in Packages list in Mono
[02:28] <AlbertoP> you might want to ask on mono channel...they are usually friendly
[02:28] <mamece2> hello i found that BT4 puts my laptop less hotter than ubuntu
[02:28] <IDWMaster> OK. I'll ask over there
[02:29] <IDWMaster> Thanks
[02:29] <LordDragon> someone is telling me that compiling my own kernel will make it run twice as fast. is that true?
[02:29] <Braber01_> okay nobody go to ubuntu-offtopic it's weird over there
[02:30] <sunny1> Braber01_: In what way?
[02:30] <Braber01_> um in the I just killed  the chat way.
[02:30] <mamece2> ....
[02:30] <mamece2> how can i execute a shell? whats the command?
[02:31] <sunny1> mamece2: A bash script?
[02:31] <dwmyers> mamece2: sh -or- bash  -or  ksh
[02:31] <mamece2> sunny1 lets see
[02:32] <mamece2> how can i know the kind of extension, its doesnt has extension
[02:32] <dwmyers> mamec2: There are many shells. zsh, csh, tcsh, etc. dash.. and extensions don't matter in Unix.
[02:32] <siezer> hi. my debian-fu is a bit rusty... can anyone give me a hint on how I preseed myself out of this message? http://gist.github.com/602004 debconf-{get,set}-selections isnt working like it usually does
[02:33] <sunny1> mamece2: What does the first line say?
[02:33] <mamece2> #!/usr/bin/perl
[02:33] <mamece2> whats does it means?
[02:33] <dwmyers> mamec2: heh. perl program.
[02:34] <mamece2> then its a perl
[02:34] <sunny1> mamece2: Its perl
[02:34] <mamece2> how can i execute it? i tried -ng
[02:34] <sunny1> mamece2: Make it executable
[02:34] <mamece2> doin a make?
[02:34] <dwmyers> mamec2: execute it by name. if you're in the directory and its name is "script", try './script' (no quotes)
[02:35] <dwmyers> mamec2: also, 'perl script' should work.
[02:35] <mamece2> letss try
[02:35] <dwmyers> mamec2: if it doesn't run, permissions are not set properly.
[02:35] <mamece2> Can't open perl script "script": No such file or directory
[02:35] <andrenvq57> Hello everyone. Does anyone know if there is such txt editor that I can add words in front of every line?
[02:36] <sunny1> andrenvq57: gedit
[02:36] <LordDragon> a friend of mine is telling me that the default ubuntu kernel is very generic and designed for all intel cpus. and that id get a 2x speed increase if i compiled an optimized kernel for my cpu. is that true?
[02:36] <dwmyers> mamec2: are you in the same directory (folder) as the script?
[02:36] <siezer> w
[02:36] <mamece2> yes

[02:38] <dwmyers> mamec2: ls -l script
[02:38] <dmar198> I'm trying to set up a printer wirelessly (bluetooth). I opened up "Bluetooth settings" on the printer and it asked me to input a BT PIN number. Any ideas?
[02:38] <sunny1> mamece2: Are you sure you're in the folder when trying to run it?
[02:38] <dwmyers> mamec2: and don't literally type script, type the name of your file.
[02:38] <Izinucs> dmar198: 0000 or 1234
[02:39] <dmar198> Izinucs :: thanks. Now what do I do?
[02:39] <mamece2> sunny1 yes sir
[02:39] <mamece2> im right in the directory of the file
[02:40] <Izinucs> dmar198: uh.... check the bluetooth configuration options in ubuntu.. not really sure.. never setup a bluetooth printer.
[02:40] <andrenvq57> thanks sunny1.
[02:40] <dwmyers> mamec2: could try this: ./script --help
[02:40] <dwmyers> mamec2: or perldoc ./script
[02:40] <mamece2> no such file directory
[02:40] <Braber01_> hi | drrob1
[02:40] <drrob1> hi
[02:40] <Braber01_> !hi |drrob1
[02:41] <mamece2> "u need to install perl-doc package to use this program
[02:41] <andrenvq57> How do I paste files to /usr/lib/gedit-2/plugins/ ?
[02:41] <LordDragon> anyone know of a widget or panel addon that shows cpu temperatures for my intel motherboard/cpus?
[02:41] <drrob1> Am I actually being read here?
[02:41] <wedwo> mamece2, is this a script for cracking wireless passwords?
[02:41] <dmar198> yes drrob1, you are being read
[02:41] <Izinucs> dmar198: typically the printer has to be "discovered" by the computer.. then they have to "pair" .. usually asking for a password or key like 0000 or 1234.. after that you have to get cups to recognize the connection as a printer.. might even have to install another bluetooth appelate just for printers.. for that look in synaptic package manager
[02:41] <mamece2> wedwo yes
[02:41] <drrob1> thanks.   I never knew.
[02:41] <Braber01_> yes you are I was trying something that a bod had but apperntly didn't work
[02:41] <mamece2> i have the same request as lordragon
[02:41] <Braber01_> *bot
[02:41] <sunny1> mamece2: Install the package then
[02:41] <jsec> dmar198: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothPrinterSetup
[02:41] <dmar198> thanks jsec
[02:42] <Izinucs> dmar198: when I say printer.. what I really mean is "bluetooth hardware"
[02:42] <dmar198> Izinucs :: sure
[02:42] <tris2k> anyone tried the stripes web framework?
[02:42] <dmar198> there must be some mechanism for turning on "discovery" mode on the printer
[02:42] <dmar198> but I see no hardware buttons
[02:42] <mamece2> why i can execute it clickin it and cannot open it from the konsole?
[02:43] <Izinucs> dmar198: might be a software toggle on the configuration of the printer.. from the printers buttons and display
[02:43] <candoman> are there any known issues installing and running 10.04 on a new Intel core i3 64bit system?
[02:43] <Braber01_> !welcome | Neurotrophin
[02:43] <mamece2> install the package? its so ez to say that
[02:43] <joe__> the answer is 42
[02:44] <Braber01_> um how come i can see other people use the !hi | username command but it's not working now?
[02:44] <mamece2> ty 4 all
[02:44] <posciak> has anyone managed to share an encrypted home partition over NFS? Is it possible?
[02:44] <candoman> it installs but hangs when booting up
[02:44] <dmar198> jsec or Izinucs :: the help page I was pointed to says, "If you don't see something like that than either your printer is not configured correctly or your Bluetooth adapter isn't recognized. Seek help for both problems in the Ubuntu Forums or the Ubuntu Users mailing list."
[02:44] <Braber01_> !thanks |mamece2
[02:44] <dmar198> well, I'm seeking help from the IRC so I guess that counts
[02:45] <jsec> dmar198: yeah I looked at it... not a whole lot of helpful info there. I'd look at your printer's manual for how to toggleit.
[02:45] <dmar198> but the first step (scanning for hardware) didn't work
[02:45] <dmar198> great, that's common sense that I hadn't thought of
[02:45] <Braber01_> !ping
[02:45] <dmar198> doi
[02:46] <Braber01_> who coded the !ping command that is genius :)
[02:46] <dmar198> be back after I've checked out the manual
[02:46] <dmar198> lol
[02:47] <jsec> Braber01_: there's some dumb ones too
[02:47] <IdleOne> Braber01: Please play with ubottu in PM or in #ubuntu-bots
[02:47] <Braber01_> IdleOne: okay I wil
[02:47] <Braber01_> I just thought I should let sombody know that the !hi command isn't working right
[02:48] <IdleOne> Braber01: yup it was deemed spammy, hence removed

[02:58] <Tokal> Hi I had a quick question
[02:59] <Tokal> I run a Minecraft server in a terminal window
[02:59] <Braber01_> !ask | Tokal
[02:59] <Tokal> but when java receives messages it moves my cursor position
[02:59] <knife_> :knife
[02:59] <Tokal> ah
[03:00] <knife_> quit
[03:00] <Tokal> I run a Minecraft server in a terminal window. When Java receives messages it moves my cursor position making it hard to send the users messages. How I can have an IRC style shell where input remains on the bottom and output on top
[03:00] <Tokal> ?
[03:00] <IdleOne> Tokal: sounds like a minecraft issue, might want to check their forums
[03:01] <Braber01_> um just putting this out there on another irc channel I went to every so often the bot they had would respond "if you show me yours I'll show you mine!" when ever somebody put "boobies" in a string
[03:01] <tensorpudding> Tokal: sounds like you should be backgrounding your server process
[03:01] <tensorpudding> Tokal: are you running it as a jarfile, or a script, or what?
[03:01] <Tokal> tensorpudding: I'm not too keen on Ubuntu vocab but I'm willing to learn, what do you mean?
[03:02] <Tokal> a jar file yes
[03:02] <fang> !register
[03:02] <Tokal> I've been running through screen so I can check up on through ssh
[03:02] <tensorpudding> Tokal: so something like 'java foo.jar'?
[03:02] <Tokal> yes
[03:02] <Tokal> so typically I have quick startup file that sets the memory parameters for the minecraft.jar file.
[03:03] <Tokal> then in terminal I can type in commands
[03:03] <Tokal> a common one is "say *"
[03:03] <tensorpudding> Tokal: these messages are logging messages, error messages from the jvm, or what?
[03:03] <Tokal> where it messages all users
[03:03] <Tokal> perhaps a picture would help
[03:04] <Tokal> just one moment
[03:04] <tensorpudding> Tokal: does the program have any options to log to file, or fork to the background or something?
[03:05] <denniss1> I want to register a shell account in this site,anybody can help me ?

[03:07] <mplabs> Hello!
[03:07] <mplabs> I have a big problem. I was upgrading my system to 10.04 but now its all broken!
[03:07] <mplabs> I tried using dpkg --configure -a but I have tons of incomplete dependences !
[03:07] <tensorpudding> Tokal: this looks to be a problem inherent in the program itself
[03:07] <tensorpudding> Tokal: since it's a chat thingie
[03:08] <mplabs> My source.list after the upgrade: http://pastebin.com:80/mjT9kJ8i
[03:08] <Mung> The generally accepted method is with apt, or aptitude, not dpkg alone.
[03:08] <mplabs> if I try to do safe-upgrade: http://pastebin.com:80/U4qfukuy
[03:08] <Tokal> I guess my request is a shell that separates the input from the output, similar to an IRC chat
[03:08] <tensorpudding> Tokal: sending messages through a noisy interface like that sounds like terrible design on the part of the people who made it
[03:08] <Tokal> yes I agree
[03:08] <Tokal> entirely
[03:08] <mplabs> Any help ? Please
[03:09] <Mung> mplabs
[03:09] <Tokal> tensorpudding: would you believe Minecraft is making a quarter of a million a day and isn't even out of beta
[03:09] <Tokal> made by one developer too, notch
[03:09] <Mung> is this 2 sources.list files merged?
[03:10] <mplabs> merged ? why ?
[03:10] <Braber01_> #!/bin/bash\n sleep 7h
[03:10] <tensorpudding> Tokal: I could believe that, given the volume of youtube videos of people's maps that i see posted online
[03:10] <Mung> I see references to both lucid and karmic.
[03:11] <Mung> generally you only want one version.
[03:11] <mplabs> oh, the update-manager changed the source.list, its what I have right now
[03:11] <Mung> line 24/25 for ref.
[03:11] <Tokal> there is a GUI but java disables it when working from terminal
[03:11] <Braber01_> must not fall asleep !repeat
[03:11] <Mung> !!
[03:11] <Mung> :P
[03:12] <mplabs> deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid multiversendeb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid-updates multiverse
[03:12] <Braber01_> darn this class tires me out :(
[03:12] <mplabs> just lucid
[03:12] <Mung> yes, I see that.
[03:12] <mplabs> where did you see karmic ?
[03:12] <mplabs> all about karmic is commented
[03:13] <Mung> yes I se that.
[03:13] <Mung> my question is: are you trying to go back to lucid? or forward to karmic?
[03:13] <mplabs> well, I was upgrading
[03:14] <Mung> so, forward.
[03:14] <Mung> lucid is a rev back.
[03:14] <IdleOne> mung
[03:14] <mplabs> yes
[03:14] <IdleOne> lucid is after karmic

[03:14] <IdleOne> !10.04
[03:14] <Braber01_> !10.10
[03:15] <IdleOne> karmic was 9.10
[03:15] <Mung> krikey.
[03:15] <mplabs> I guess you write it wrong, but yes I was upgrading to 10.04
[03:15] <Mung> thanks, heads broken.
[03:15] <mplabs> s/write/wrote/
[03:15] <mplabs> can anyone show me his source.list please ?
[03:16]  * Braber01_ Knows of a City named Maverick it's in Boston on the Blue Line on the "T" (Boston's Subway Rail System)
[03:16] <IdleOne> mplabs: the reason you have a bunch of depends issues is because of all the non default repos you have. upgrade automatically disables those repos
[03:16] <mplabs> do you mean it will be ok if I uncomment some repos ?
[03:17] <IdleOne> mplabs: hmm, ok is hard to say but I suspect a lot of your packages depend on libs from those repos
[03:17] <Mung> you'll probably have to track down the correct URI for them
[03:18] <mplabs> but I thought the update manager wrote there the necessary to end the upgrade
[03:18] <mplabs> but I have problems with things like openoffice
[03:18] <mplabs> so its strange
[03:18] <Mung> for supported packages.
[03:18] <IdleOne> update manager will use only the official repos and disable the non ubuntu ones
[03:18] <Eden> ola
[03:18] <Mung> not thirdparty stuff.
[03:19] <mplabs> I guess openoffice is part of the official repo, is it ?
[03:19] <IdleOne> mplabs: yes
[03:19] <mplabs> for example:
[03:19] <mplabs>  libgnomecanvas2-0 depends on libgtk2.0-0 (>= 2.8.17); however:n  Package libgtk2.0-0 is not configured yet.
[03:19] <mplabs> it doesnt make sense
[03:19] <Braber01_> OMFG! I cannot belive my programming teacher does not know about \' \"...
[03:20] <Braber01_> !caps | Braber01_
[03:20] <IdleOne> !ot > Braber01
[03:21] <mplabs> ok, let me see.. I will try to uncomment some repos and then execute a new safe-upgrade
[03:21] <IdleOne> mplabs: first check to make sure you have the correct URL for the lucid version of the repos
[03:21] <mplabs> can I do a booteable USB from this live CD ? I didnt found the application to do that
[03:22] <IdleOne> !usb
[03:22] <Mung> unetbootin
[03:23] <mplabs> by the way, I dont have internet, did I say that ?
[03:24] <mplabs> it stopped to work with these problems
[03:24] <mplabs> I was using WiCd but now I cant open it !
[03:24] <The_Ace> mplabs, does it throw any error messages ?
[03:24] <mplabs> actually it is in the list of non-configured applications
[03:25] <mplabs> yes, but I cant remember it, it was because it doesn have its deamon running
[03:25] <mplabs> in fact I cant execute many applications, it is all broken !
[03:25] <mplabs> and waiting to be configured
[03:26] <mplabs> WiCD and network-manager is in the list http://pastebin.com:80/U4qfukuy
[03:26] <vic20gmr> wud someone mind directeding me to the correct chanel for xubuntu-macppc disussion and/or support?
[03:26] <The_Ace> mplabs,  did you mix repos  or something like that ?
[03:27] <mplabs> I dont know how to connect my computer since I dont have an applicaton to do that
[03:27] <vic20gmr> ima linux/linux-on-ppc noob
[03:27] <mplabs> no The_Ace, I was upgrading with update-manager
[03:27] <mplabs> my source.list is here: http://pastebin.com:80/mjT9kJ8i
[03:27] <mplabs> The_Ace: update-manager commented almost everything, I have just lucid repos now
[03:28] <The_Ace> i'm going over it
[03:28] <weekly> hey guys, question: what is the name of the gnome terminal package? can i install it with apt-get?
[03:28] <mplabs> thank you
[03:28] <xbonesx> anyone know how to configure a um175 verizon aircard...
[03:29] <The_Ace> mplabs, are you using those LAMP repos and those karmic repos ?
[03:29] <mplabs> well, I was
[03:29] <xbonesx> I have wvdial installed but I dont know how to get my username and pass for the device, does anyone know the defaults or how to obtain this information, tried to login into my account on the net and had no luck finding the username and pass
[03:29] <The_Ace> there's even a jaunty repo
[03:30] <mplabs> no, wait.. I was using karmic repos, then update-manager commented it all and put lucid repos instead
[03:31] <The_Ace> mplabs, I see there are source repos as well. Did you compile applications as well ?
[03:31] <mplabs> well, I guess I did, but not so often
[03:31] <mplabs> why ?
[03:31] <The_Ace> AFAIK, if key components were compiled from source, they wont get upgraded with package managers
[03:31] <The_Scythe_Has_F> so, whats goin on?
[03:32] <The_Ace> so that can break a system on upgrade
[03:32] <mplabs> oh no, I didnt compile compile many applications, just a few of them I guess
[03:32] <mplabs> it cant be the problem
[03:33] <jMyles> go
[03:33] <The_Ace> mplabs, you can uncomment those repos that you had enabled earlier and run a apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
[03:34] <The_Ace> that'll get the packages from all repos
[03:34] <mplabs> it will upgrade to karmic ?
[03:34] <phantom11141> Hi all, using ubuntu 10.04 my N wireless shows the network but it will not connect.
[03:34] <The_Ace> mplabs,  you're already on lucid arnt you ? karmic will be a downgrade
[03:34] <mplabs> oh, you mean to keep repos from both distros ?
[03:34] <seidos> is there a program teachers can use for grading?
[03:34] <mplabs> yes, I am or it is supposed to be lucid
[03:35] <The_Ace> mplabs, first thing is to see if those 3rd party repos have repos for lucid
[03:35] <The_Ace> if they do, edit your source list to use the lucid repos
[03:35] <The_Ace> then run the update/upgrade
[03:35] <The_Ace> that'll get all the packages for lucid
[03:35] <mplabs> I think its not important right know since I cant execute even network manager !
[03:36] <The_Ace> oh wow
[03:36] <The_Ace> so the system is totally broken ?
[03:36] <mplabs> almost totally !
[03:37] <The_Ace> so there's no way to pull packages ?
[03:37] <mplabs> reading the list I guess python-gtk2 is not working so I cant execute almost anything
[03:37] <The_Ace> mplabs, how about CLI access ?
[03:37] <mplabs> cli ?
[03:37] <The_Ace> terminal or command line interface
[03:38] <mplabs> ahm, to use internet ?
[03:38] <The_Ace> to run commands
[03:38] <mplabs> I just tried with wicd and network-manager, but tell me and I will try
[03:38] <mplabs> well, I can
[03:38] <The_Ace> since terminal is not dependent on gtk, it should run the commands without complaining
[03:39] <mplabs> I can use some applications like yakuke for example
[03:39] <mplabs> yes, it works
[03:39] <The_Ace> can you get network access with terminal ?
[03:39] <Gnea> !wubi
[03:39] <mplabs> I dont know how
[03:39] <phantom11141> Hi all, using ubuntu 10.04 my N wireless shows the network but it will not connect.
[03:39] <mplabs> tell me and I will try
[03:40] <The_Ace> mplabs, do you have ssh server on that machine ?
[03:40] <mplabs> well, yes
[03:40] <mplabs> but!
[03:40] <mplabs> remember that I am in a live cd
[03:40] <mplabs> and in the real installation I dont have internet..
[03:40] <The_Ace> so the broken box has no network at all ?
[03:41] <mplabs> you are right
[03:41] <mplabs> in fact the broken box is.. this box
[03:41] <mplabs> but without a live CD...
[03:41] <The_Ace> then backup and re install is the fastest menthod
[03:41] <IdleOne> mplabs: do you have a separate /home?
[03:41] <mplabs> I have tons of things to backup, I prefer to try to fix it
[03:41] <mplabs> yes, I have
[03:42] <Gnea> how can I tell Ubuntu WUBI to not mount the host filesystem at boot?  /etc/fstab has nothing.
[03:42] <IdleOne> mplabs: ok then you can do a clean install and not lose your /home
[03:42] <The_Ace> mplabs, AFAIK, the options are limited since you're on the broken box with live CD
[03:42] <Gnea> mplabs: as long as /home is on a separate partition, you should be fine
[03:43] <tchebb> Hello all. I just migrated my 10.04 desktop installation to LVM, but I'm having problems booting. GRUB loads initrd fine, but then I get a disk not found error and it drops me to a busybox shell. I can make the volume group available from there using 'vgchange -a y' and it boots fine, but I'm not sure how to make it activate the volume group automatically.
[03:43] <mplabs> but..
[03:43] <The_Ace> Gnea, i'm assuming he has data in the /var as well
[03:43] <The_Ace> since i saw some LAMP repos
[03:43] <Gnea> The_Ace: ah
[03:43] <IdleOne> he copy /var to /home for now
[03:43] <mplabs> is there any way create a connection with my router using the command line ?
[03:44] <Gnea> mplabs: using dhcp?
[03:44] <The_Ace> mplabs,  is the router giving out IPs ?
[03:44] <aroman> Hey guys. So I'm a freshman in highschool in the market for a new laptop. I have no interest in running Windows, and would like to know if there are any certain laptops (that run windows out of the box or otherwise) that are known to have very good Ubuntu support? I'm unsure about buying a laptop because i want to run Linux/Ubuntu on it.. and I don't know which will work well or not. Thanks SO MUCH!
[03:44] <mplabs> yes, it is
[03:44] <mplabs> I have to ask for one and it will give me one
[03:44] <The_Ace> then just plugging the cable should work
[03:44] <mplabs> it doesnt ?
[03:44] <jsec> aroman: most all of them?
[03:45] <Gnea> aroman: sager, perhaps?
[03:45] <sunny1> aroman: I've a azus K and can't complain
[03:45] <Dulak> aroman: I have an acer aspire netbook that runs ubuntu just fine out of the box, many laptops today run ubuntu without any problems
[03:45] <jsec> I've even had good luck with ubuntu out of the box on my MacBook
[03:45] <aroman> sunny1, How recent is it, and what (if any) are the drawbacks (like stuff that doesn't work at all) with Ubuntu? Thanks!
[03:45] <Gnea> aroman: my eeepc works great with it
[03:45] <aroman> jsec, Well, surely some have better hardware support than not.
[03:46] <aroman> Gnea, I've heard good things about them, but I'm looking for a full-size laptop (13-15)
[03:46] <Gnea> !laptop | aroman
[03:46] <mplabs> hm..
[03:46] <Dulak> aroman: laptops are mostly manufactured by a small handful of companies now, hardware support is much less of an issue now than in the past
[03:46] <aroman> Dulak, Anything that _doesn't_ work? When did you get your laptop and how much did it cost? Thanks :)
[03:46] <sunny1> aroman: 6 months...9.10 worked great, no big with wireless. 10.04 has some flickering and gedit processing issues
[03:47] <Gnea> aroman: there are some newer models that aren't updated there, mostly because they tend to work just fine these days
[03:47] <sunny1> *no big troubles with wireless
[03:47] <The_Ace> mplabs, try sudo dhclient -r
[03:47] <The_Ace> and sudo dhclient
[03:47] <Dulak> aroman: everything works, including the built-in camera, paid $250 US for it last year
[03:47] <The_Ace> mplabs, that'll get a new IP from the router
[03:47] <Gnea> ugh, why does wubi have to suck so bad?
[03:47] <mplabs> ok, I will try to connect it, I will enable some repos and try with a new upgrade
[03:47] <aroman> Dulak, Right, I didn't think about that. So you're saying that I can basically pick any laptop (off the shelf at Best Buy, let's say) and expect it to work well with ubuntu? (Maverick)
[03:48] <Gnea> just want to track down how it mounts /host automatically but can't find anything in /etc
[03:48] <mplabs> great, thank you all !
[03:48] <The_Ace> mplabs, before enabling the 3rd party repos, find out if they have repos for lucid and add the lucid repos
[03:48] <mplabs> ok!
[03:48] <mplabs> have to reboot, see you in minutes
[03:49] <Gnea> not seeing anything in /etc/udev/
[03:49] <Dulak> aroman: yeah, steer clear of compaq though, they skimp on parts.  Acer, Lenovo, Toshiba, etc all have good stuff that should work just fine.
[03:49] <waaade> does anyone know why my motd isn't showing up when i first log into ubuntu through ssh using screen?
[03:52] <Dulak> aroman: to be honest I never buy the newest models, just because those are the most likely to have something new that isn't fully supported, and getting the last model instead of the newest tends to save you money.
[03:53] <sunny1> aroman: And never off BestBuy
[03:53] <peeps[work]> i installed a PAE kernel and my nvidia binary drivers broke.  how can i reconfigure them.  i am in X now, not sure what drivers it's using.
[03:54] <hideki> peeps[work]: what is the output of glxinfo | grep vendor
[03:54] <The_Ace> peeps[work], its probably using default fbdev drivers
[03:55] <peeps[work]> hideki, just a bunch of error output
[03:55] <aroman> Dulak, But wouldn't there be an advantage to having the latest hardware?
[03:56] <aroman> sunny1, Why's that? Markup?
[03:56] <Braber01> um Hi I'm back home again from class I'm trying to get rid of my password for my keyring and I can't seem to find the menu to do that :(
[03:56] <icarus-c> peeps[work], tried reinstall nvidia driver?
[03:56] <aroman> Braber01, applications>accessories>passwords and encryption, I think.
[03:56] <Quutar> I am having trouble compiling gcc 4.5.1 under ubuntu 10.04.1 desktop edition 64 bit... i am able to compile the package version of 4.4.1... my notes: I start with a fresh ubuntu 10.04.1 install that has been updated via the package manager... then do - http://pastebin.com/dbYyKAA4 - this setups up the build env... i then run the following script - http://pastebin.com/yw0Ve6ZE which fails at
[03:56] <Quutar> the "build" step of gcc itself... i get the following error - http://pastebin.com/t1JJpktu
[03:56] <hideki> you could try removing the driver, then re-install using m-a a-i
[03:57] <Quutar> it seams to be failing when the gcc build process tests the multilibs portion... is there something I am missing from apt-get?
[03:57] <sunny1> aroman: Oh yea, plus they tend to carry the best selling ones, not always the best ones. I bought mine off amazon after reading through the reviews, def. recommend that
[03:57] <peeps[work]> icarus-c, good idea, let me try
[03:58] <peeps[work]> rebooting, brb
[03:58] <Dulak> aroman: in a desktop sure, but a laptop isn't exactly where you need to worry about the best performance, since it really won't compare to a desktop until you get into the high-end stuff.  Also newer means untried, I never buy the first new generation just because the second generation gets the bugs ironed out.  Re:  the new macbook had major issues with the case that didn't exist is subsequent models
[03:59] <The_Ace> Dulak, but you loose bragging rights :D
[03:59] <sunny1> aroman: Hindsight, I should've bought the one that supported hackinstosh...maybe you don't care about that. Its a bi*** to switch from ubuntu to windows for photoshop and back again for rails
[03:59] <aroman> sunny1, That makes a lot of sense. But my hesitation would be testing things like feel, sound quality, stuff that can only happen in person, physically, I suppose.
[04:00] <Dulak> The_Ace: I prefer stability over bragging, but I'm old and married.
[04:00] <nossralsuva> how do i stop the screen save from coming on when using VLC or Media Player
[04:00] <aroman> sunny1, I've got an iMac 2008 that I tripleboot, and I'm not interested in Mac laptops except their hardware which almost has me buying them (sans the price)
[04:00] <Braber01> I will be back I to get rid of this distracting window...
[04:00] <sunny1> nossralsuva: System > Preferences > Screensaver
[04:00] <aroman> sunny1, And I have no reason to run Windows thankfully :-)
[04:01] <Dulak> aroman: you look in the store, decide, then go home and order it online for a lot less.
[04:01] <peeps[work]> icarus-c, i reinstalled and rebooted and still appears they are not enabled
[04:01] <AbhiJit> hi
[04:01] <Dulak> aroman: if you can social engineer well you can even get them to let you boot a livecd in the store to check compat issues
[04:02] <Dulak> aroman: buying retail is for suckers with no patience
[04:02] <sunny1> ^ +1
[04:02] <DarkStar1> jsec: that did not go well... My force sense was right
[04:02] <peeps[work]> i seem to remember doing somehting before where you change the runlevel to something to get out of X, then there is an nvidia reconfigure script you can run?   i can't remember the specifics, but i've done simliar before
[04:03] <Quutar> is it better for me to ask complex questions on ubuntuforums instead of IRC?
[04:03] <aroman> Dulak, Excellent points. I think I'll try those things! Do you have any personal recommendations for a 13-15 inch laptop?
[04:03] <nossralsuva> sunn1 when i tried to turn off activate when screen is idle, it still turns on
[04:04] <Dulak> aroman: I like the acer brand myself, but again they are all made by the same companies now, the parts are all the same inside
[04:04] <spotter> ke
[04:05] <aroman> Dulak, Ah. So basically, 1. go to best buy 2. find laptop I like (or perhaps not) 3. go on amazon 4. buy laptop 5. ??? 6. profit! :)
[04:05] <Braber01> hey I've tried erasing my password, and that didn't work now I have to enter my wireless password and my keyring password any ideas on how i can get my keyring to startup when I login form the login shell?
[04:05] <nossralsuva> sunn1 which setting should i use so that it does not turn in in the middle of watching something?
[04:05] <Dulak> aroman: search for the best price, could be newegg, amazon, or a dozen other sites that compete on price.
[04:06] <mplabs> Hello again !
[04:06] <mplabs> It's connected now !
[04:06] <mplabs> but.. its the same about the upgrade
[04:06] <mplabs> I enabled some repos but it's the same
[04:06] <AbhiJit> Quutar, yes
[04:06] <mplabs> The_Ace: dhclient works
[04:06] <sunny1> nossralsuva: Why not just increase the idle time to 2 hours...not sure if there's an explicit option for that...maybe vlc has it
[04:07] <peeps[work]> how do i turn off X
[04:07] <The_Ace> mplabs, great
[04:07] <mplabs> matias@localhost:/media/Data/home$ xchat  xchat: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_malloc_n
[04:07] <mplabs> for example
[04:08] <Braber01> um keyring problem I was told to delete my passwork form the encrytpion keys and that should get irssi working form the login shell with out having to startx however it's not in order to get online i have to startx and enter my wireless password and now my keyring password how can i fix this
[04:08] <mplabs> WICD: File "/usr/share/wicd/daemon/wicd-daemon.py", line 52, in <module>     from dbus.mainloop.glib import DBusGMainLoo [...]
[04:08] <nossralsuva> sunn1 thanks man that worked
[04:08] <The_Ace> mplabs, looks like you have to fix the repos issue
[04:08] <mplabs> yes
[04:09] <mplabs> I guess so
[04:09] <nossralsuva> sunn1 it stopped, i had the wrong setting enabled and then i logged off and logged back in, it works just fine
[04:09] <The_Ace> and then upgrade so that it pulls all apps for lucid
[04:09] <Drue192> Anyone know where i can find drivers for ATI Radeon 2100. I downloaded the ones from ATI but they dont support Ubuntu 10.04
[04:09] <mplabs> The_Ace: what is the plan ?
[04:09] <raghur> ls
[04:10] <vbabiy_> any one have any idea why curl will load search.com when nslook returns nothing
[04:10] <mplabs> I mean, I don't know what is wrong with the source.list since I enabled some karmic repos and it's the same
[04:11] <DarkStar1> jsec: brb gotta restart
[04:11] <The_Ace> mplabs, first find out if there are lucid repos for those
[04:11] <edward_> could this bind be simplified (-D "cn=Leon Hall,ou=arts,ou=Users,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" -W) when doin authentication? with for example ldapsearch?
[04:11] <The_Ace> mplabs,  whats that pastebin link again ?
[04:11] <mplabs> wait, I have to paste it again
[04:13] <mplabs> http://pastebin.com/bZid77z3

[04:13] <Quutar> ok, posted - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9902384#post9902384
[04:14] <mplabs> dotdeb doesn't have

[04:15] <mplabs> oh, there is a dir called "stable", maybe it works for many distros
[04:15] <multipass> anyone noticing a influx of spam and adds latly?
[04:19] <loculinux> hola

[04:20] <AbhiJit> he doesnt know!!! :P
[04:20] <mplabs> squeeze/sid ?!
[04:20] <mplabs> is it ok ?
[04:20] <The_Ace> yeah
[04:21] <The_Ace> for the dotdeb, just enable the stable repo
[04:21] <mplabs> yes, because there isn't any lucid
[04:21] <DivineBrevity> Please help. My personal folder has gone missing in Ubuntu 10.04
[04:21] <mplabs> ok, so let me try
[04:22] <The_Ace> mplabs, for the virtualbox, use lucid
[04:22] <hideki> what do you mean, personal folder ?
[04:22] <DivineBrevity> I wish I could give more info, but I literally clicked on it, and it opened "Desktop."
[04:22] <mplabs> didn't I put lucid ?
[04:22] <DivineBrevity> The folder named "DL" on my desktop vanished.
[04:22] <hideki> do you mean your /home ?
[04:22] <mplabs> deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian lucid non-free # disabled on upgrade to karmic
[04:22] <aroman> Dulak, Sorry to bother you again, but after doing some checking around on Amazon this is the laptop I would want to buy (ASUS A52F-X3) http://www.amazon.com/ASUS-A52F-X3-15-6-Inch-Laptop-Black/dp/B003UN6YUE/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1285730461&sr=1-1 Does this seem, in your opinion, like a sound choice. Thanks a ton man, really.
[04:22] <mplabs> The_Ace: I put lucid
[04:22] <tensorpudding> DivineBrevity: Maybe you deleted it? Check the Trash?
[04:22] <DivineBrevity> I checked that.
[04:23] <tensorpudding> DivineBrevity: did you check the folder Desktop under your home folder?
[04:23] <DivineBrevity> I thought maybe I did, but it's not there, and the disk usage shows that what was once the largest folder in my computer (about 40GB) is gone.
[04:23] <The_Ace> mplabs, for blueman use lucid
[04:23] <The_Ace> its there
[04:23] <DivineBrevity> Tensoprpudding, I did check that.
[04:23] <DivineBrevity> I rebooted as well, thinking maybe it was just a bug.
[04:24] <DivineBrevity> I've searched for files held in the folder as well. No dice.
[04:24] <mplabs> The_Ace: it says: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/blueman/ppa/ubuntu lucid main
[04:24] <tensorpudding> DivineBrevity: it was a normal folder, right?
[04:24] <mplabs> are you reading the right file ?
[04:24] <The_Ace> looks like i'm not..
[04:24] <DivineBrevity> It was, I suppose.
[04:24] <mplabs> it is: http://pastebin.com/Z9ZN4z1n
[04:25] <DivineBrevity> It had all of my videos and photos in it. As well as music, school, etc. Basically my life.
[04:25] <Yugge> Hello guys
[04:25] <tensorpudding> DivineBrevity: I mean, it wasn't a link to another filesystem or anything
[04:25] <mplabs> I edited it and I have all with lucid now The_Ace
[04:25] <DivineBrevity> No, it wasn't.
[04:25] <The_Ace> mplabs, I see. I was looking at the wrong file
[04:25] <tensorpudding> DivineBrevity: It sounds like something you did deleted it.
[04:25] <DivineBrevity> It was just a regular folder.
[04:25] <Yugge> I have a question regarding gnome-applet programming, what would be the appropriate chatroom for asking that question?
[04:25] <DivineBrevity> How can I get it back?
[04:25] <hideki> Could you have accidentally dragged it into another folder ?
[04:25] <The_Ace> mplabs, run : sudo apt-get update
[04:26] <mplabs> What on the Earth !? Need to get 507MB of archives. After unpacking 84.7MB will be used.
[04:26] <DivineBrevity> Is there a way to delete it without it going into the trash?
[04:26] <The_Ace> mplabs, thats the way it is
[04:26] <AbhiJit> Yugge, #ubuntu-devel
[04:26] <mplabs> it means more than 2 hours with this connection !
[04:26] <Yugge> AbhiJit, thanks
[04:26] <DivineBrevity> hideki, I checked the other folders and even searched for names of files in it. No luck
[04:26] <AbhiJit> brb
[04:26] <tensorpudding> DivineBrevity: If you deleted it using rm instead of through the menus
[04:26] <mplabs> but I thought it had the packages but there was a problem installing it, actualle update manager downloaded 1,8GB of packages !
[04:26] <DivineBrevity> I didn't do that.
[04:27] <mplabs> actually *
[04:27] <hideki> where was the folder ? i.e. /home/<user>/...
[04:27] <DivineBrevity> I opened up the folder and it turned into "Desktop." So I closed it and it was gone.
[04:27] <DivineBrevity> home/user/desktop
[04:27] <sweetpi> DivineBrevity: Is your total disk usage the same, or have you gained 40GB of space?
[04:27] <DivineBrevity> Gained space.
[04:27] <hideki> hmm..
[04:27] <mplabs> The_Ace: 1.8GB + 500MB, I think that to download an reinstall it all again from scratch owuld be cheaper hehe
[04:27] <tensorpudding> DivineBrevity: Huh, you gained space?
[04:28] <The_Ace> mplabs, it's now getting the upated packages for lucid
[04:28] <mplabs> that's good
[04:28] <hideki> So you could already see the folder on the actual desktop ?
[04:28] <sweetpi> DivineBrevity: that means the files were deleted then
[04:28] <mplabs> I will download it, but it will take about two hours at least
[04:28] <tensorpudding> DivineBrevity: Are you sure it didn't get renamed or moved somewhere on accident?
[04:28] <DivineBrevity> Yeah. I'm saying I think the filesystem deleted it for some reason, and now I don't know how to get it back.
[04:28] <DivineBrevity> I checked everywhere.
 The_Ace: 1.8GB + 500MB, I think that to download an reinstall it all again from scratch owuld be cheaper hehe <-- thats what I said the first time :P
[04:29] <DivineBrevity> I searched for it, I turned on "show hidden files," and nothing will turn up.
[04:29] <hideki> check /home/<user>/.local/share/Trash/files
[04:29] <DivineBrevity> Is there a more advanced way to search than the "Search for Files" option?
[04:29] <cjae> so what partitioning scheme in a media server, I have in 40 gb ide and a 1.5 TB sata
[04:29] <DivineBrevity> hideki: I'll check that now.
[04:29] <cjae> not the same as a desktop right
[04:29] <sacarlson> DivineBrevity: or maybe the file system they were on got unmounted?  where was that folder mounted?
[04:29] <tensorpudding> DivineBrevity: Filesystems don't delete files, and none of Ubuntu's automatic updates, or anything like that, would delete folders in the user's home folder
[04:29] <DivineBrevity> Ok.
[04:29] <mplabs> ok, downloading... it sounds good :)
[04:30] <mplabs> The_Ace: thank you so much !
[04:30] <mguzman> Hey, anyone know why Ubuntu sees my 2.66ghz CPU as only having 1.6ghz? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/geVadLMu
[04:30] <DivineBrevity> I'm using a touchpad on a Laptop, so it's done weird stuff, but I figured it would throw something in the trash first.
[04:30] <sweetpi> shift+delete would also bypass the trash
[04:31] <DivineBrevity> hideki: trash is empty.
[04:31] <DivineBrevity> It was mounted in home/desktop
[04:31] <sweetpi> if your Desktop directory was 40GB and you gained 40GB of space.. I believe the files are gone
[04:32] <DivineBrevity> Sweetpi, is there a way to recover if it was thrown away?
[04:32] <vu1kan> DivineBrevity: if you want to undelete something, i'd suggest you switch to a liveCD before you overwrite the portion of the HD that was storing it
[04:32] <sacarlson> DivineBrevity: I mean what physical disk was it mounted on like /dev/sda6 or maybe on some usb drive?
[04:32] <vu1kan> you can recover it, and i'll get you a link to a how-to, if you like
[04:32] <DivineBrevity> Please do. I'm going to try to recover it.
[04:32] <Injection> physical disc is mount in /mount
[04:33] <hideki> It's quite hard to undelete once the inodes have been lost
[04:33] <sweetpi> DivineBrevity: no user-friendly ways that I know of.
[04:33] <DivineBrevity> What do you mean physical disc is mount in /mount?
[04:34] <Yugge> I thought physical disks was mounted in /media
[04:34] <Yugge> and manual temp mounting should be to /mnt
[04:35] <sacarlson> Yugge: that's the norm but you could mount things anyplace you want
[04:35] <vu1kan> DivineBrevity: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/15761/recover-data-like-a-forensics-expert-using-an-ubuntu-live-cd/ you'll want to look at the sections on foremost and scalpel
[04:35] <sacarlson> Yugge: I mount things inside my /home/user accounts at times
[04:35] <hagabaka> hmm thanks for unbanning me
[04:36] <DivineBrevity> Thanks.
[04:36] <DivineBrevity> Thanks guys.
[04:36] <DivineBrevity> I'm going to head out and try to recover it that way.
[04:36] <Yugge> sacarlson, makes sense
[04:37] <atude> Hey, I'm having an annoying problem on my netbook. I don't know how it's happening or what key I may or may not be hitting or if my touchpad is doing something odd but, what ever I had copied seems to somehow insert itself into whatever text field i'm typing in, as if there's some type of middle button being pressed
[04:37] <atude> ANY ideas?
[04:37] <hagabaka> I'm getting a blank screen with only the flashing cursor after when trying to boot into ubuntu installed through wubi. Is there anything I can do to try to fix it other than burning a livecd?
[04:38] <sunny1> atude: I've the same problem, some touchpads lets you paste if you do two finger clicks
[04:38] <linux_hacks> how to find list of bluetooth adaptors?
[04:39] <sunny1> atude: Try reducing the sensitivity of your touchpad. In my computer the edges are too close to the resting place of my thumbs when I'm tying
[04:39] <sunny1> *typing
[04:39] <atude> sunny1: it's very very low
[04:39] <hagabaka> atude: I've read that you might be able to make the left button do middle click, since tapping the pad does a left click already
[04:41] <atude> hagabaka: I'm not interested in middle clicks
[04:41] <hagabaka> ah sorry, misread
[04:41] <hideki> atude: middle clicks are good, you can use it to open new browser tabs
[04:42] <sacarlson> hagabaka: do you have a 1gig usb flash disk?  you could setup one of those to install ubuntu if you did.
[04:42] <hagabaka> no :(
[04:43] <sacarlson> hagabaka: another option if you have another computer is to install from local net boot
[04:43] <mplabs> Have to sleep! Thank you again!
[04:44] <atude> hideki: yes, they're good, but they're happening randomly. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josephus_problemI'
[04:44] <atude> err, I'm not interseted, see above for example..
[04:44] <atude> :\
[04:44] <hagabaka> also is wubi unable to resume downloads now? first time it downloaded most of the ISO and my computer disconnected, and it had to download it again
[04:44] <vbabiy_> Hey guys any idea why this would be happening: http://dpaste.com/250320/ look at lines 5, and 8
[04:45] <sacarlson> hagabaka: I have herd some bad things about wubi but it must work for some people
[04:46] <shadghost> I need help with a usb device disconnecting seconds after pluging in, logs from messages.log is at http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/h6m3NwAa
[04:47] <MisterEx> I believe my university has a remote X server but I have always just sshed into a CLI. How can I access the X interface, given there is one?
[04:47] <The_Ace> MisterEx, did you try ssh -X ?
[04:48] <MisterEx> The_Ace: If it forwards X that should just work? I only get a CLI
[04:48] <shadghost> I need help with a usb device disconnecting seconds after pluging in, logs from messages.log is at http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/h6m3NwAa
[04:48] <Pentium3> I just recently transplanted my HDD to an old HP OmniBook 4150 and now I have no sound support, any help would be appreciated.
[04:48] <hideki> MisterEx: You can still execute X programs
[04:48] <icarus-c> MisterEx, you need -X switch to accept X11 forwarding
[04:48] <The_Ace> MisterEx, ssh -X forwards X so that you can run GUI apps off the server
[04:49] <icarus-c> MisterEx, then you can run X applications
[04:49] <hideki> You can test it with $ xeyes &
[04:49] <holocene> having a problem with vinagre on lucid on local network. remote connection establishes and is shown, but when I click a menu on the remote machine, the menu opens on the remote, but that is not shown on the local. what causes this?
[04:49] <Injection> pentium3, did it already have an OS on it? did you just pop in the HD? cus you can't really do that
[04:49] <The_Ace> if you want a full desktop the server needs to have xvnc enabled or some other vnc server running
[04:50] <cjae> ubuntu server disc fails cd integrity check so I check the md5sum of .iso I burned from = correct so I put the disc in another machine md5 /dev/sr0 = correct when I hold the disc up to the light the is a hole though the coating
[04:50] <cjae> wtf
[04:50] <hideki> You can alse enable auto X-forwarding by adding "ForwardX11 yes" to /etc/ssh/ssh_config
[04:50] <Pentium3> Injection: I was using this hdd in my Dell latitude running lucid, and just popped it out and into this omnibook (I have done it before with an IBM ThinkPad and an old Dell Inspiron with perfect migration).
[04:51] <hideki> On the client side, of course
[04:51] <MisterEx> weird.
[04:51] <iincx> Who wants to lick my mother board ;) in its' expansion slotz?
[04:51] <cjae> through*
[04:51] <MisterEx> I saw a page referencing and X server
[04:51] <MisterEx> but I don't believe there are ANY x applications on the box..
[04:52] <Pentium3> Injection: also, in /proc/asound/cards it says that it has no sound card yet Win98 ran it perfectly fine.
[04:52] <holocene> having a problem with vinagre on lucid on local network. remote connection establishes and is shown, but when I click a menu on the remote machine, the menu opens on the remote, but that is not shown on the local. what causes this?
[04:53] <The_Ace> MisterEx> but I don't believe there are ANY x applications on the box.. <-- then no point in getting X  forwarded is there ?
[04:53] <Pentium3> holocene: does the remote have any extended effects enabled?
[04:53] <MisterEx> The_Ace: Well can I do it from tty1?
[04:53] <Injection> pentium3, you need the correct drivers
[04:53] <MisterEx> The_Ace: I did ssh -X user@host  logged in, typed gedit, it says "Cannot find display" or whatever the error is
[04:53] <Pentium3> Injection: do you know where I could get them?
[04:54] <holocene> Pentium3, checking...
[04:54] <The_Ace> MisterEx, looks like server doesnt have X server running
[04:54] <hideki> Perhaps the server does not support X forwarding ?
[04:54] <icarus-c> MisterEx, you sure the ssh server enables X11 forwarding?
[04:54] <holocene> Pentium, normal
[04:54] <Random832> MisterEx: i think it has to be allowed by the.... yeah
[04:54] <Pentium3> holocene: You may also want to lower the remotes display resolution.
[04:54] <MisterEx> It does have an X server
[04:54] <MisterEx> I just can't do it from tty1
[04:54] <MisterEx> Which I suppose makes sense
[04:54] <holocene> Pentium3, should I turn off effects?
[04:54] <MisterEx> gedit opens
[04:55] <hideki> Ah, there is your problem
[04:55] <icarus-c> MisterEx, has X server !=  allow X11 forwarding
[04:55] <MisterEx> icarus-c: I have gedit open..
[04:55] <icarus-c> MisterEx, um sure you can't run gedit in tty...
[04:55] <hideki> You need to be on an X server already
[04:55] <MisterEx> What is a way of seeing which x apps are installed without admin privileges?
[04:55] <Pentium3> holocene: I would give it a try, I have had the similar problem, but also lowering the screen resolution on remote might help.
[04:55] <MisterEx> I'm newish to linux..
[04:55] <MisterEx> Not all binaries are in /bin
[04:55] <icarus-c> MisterEx, is the server running ubuntu ?
[04:55] <hideki> change to tty7/tty8 (whatever your local X server is on), ssh -X on xterm, then run gedit &
[04:56] <icarus-c> MisterEx, typically /usr/bin ,
[04:56] <icarus-c> MisterEx, sometimes  /usr/local/bin
[04:56] <Pentium3> Does anybody know where I could get the sound drivers for an HP OmniBook 4150?
[04:56] <MisterEx> icarus-c: lol, God no. uname -r says 2.6.18-194.11.4.el5 ?
[04:56] <holocene> Pentium3, you are a genius. it worked and thanks.
[04:56] <icarus-c> MisterEx, looks like red hat enterprise linux
[04:56] <MisterEx> I think it's CentOS
[04:56] <icarus-c> MisterEx, or centos
[04:57] <MisterEx> Okay.
[04:57] <Pentium3> holocene: You're very welcome, just helping others.
[04:57] <icarus-c> MisterEx, you could rpm -qa   you get a list of installed package
[04:57] <MisterEx> So how can I tell what's installed that I can use?
[04:57] <tensorpudding> 18, that's a little old
[04:57] <icarus-c> MisterEx, but that is off topic here
[04:57] <MisterEx> Jesus
[04:57] <MisterEx> A lot.
[04:57] <Pentium3> holocene: Glad that it works.
[04:57] <icarus-c> MisterEx, that includes all packages installed.. not just gui app though
[04:57] <maco> MisterEx: lsb_release -a  <-- should tell you what distro it is. but also, yeah, off topic here
[04:58] <The_Ace> MisterEx, looks like that server is not forwading X
[04:58] <Pentium3> Does anybody know where I could get the sound drivers for an HP OmniBook 4150?
[04:58] <holocene> Yes. I am giving the remote laptop to my nephew and will want to get it working over the network, but that will be for another night!
[04:58] <hideki> Log into server, and try "cat /etc/ssh/sshd_config | grep X11"
[04:58] <Injection33>  /join #reddit
[04:58] <holocene> Pentium3, network meaning internet
[04:58] <MisterEx> The_Ace: It must be I can open gedit on it
[04:58] <hideki> If X11 forwarding is enabled, it should return "X11Forwarding yes"
[04:58] <Injection33> i'm back, had to switch irc clients
[04:59] <Pentium3> holocene: I have had the same dilemma with my Pentium III laptop trying to control my P4 desktop/server.
[04:59] <hideki> Also, make sure you are in X on your client machine
[04:59] <icarus-c> hideki, why dont just " grep X11 /etc/ssh/sshd_config"  :P
[04:59] <sinman> how do i access screensaver in kde?
[04:59] <MisterEx> hideki: Yeah, cause my university gives me root privileges.. ;)
[04:59] <hideki> icarus-c: of course
[04:59] <icarus-c> sinman, somewhere in setting manager ?
[04:59] <holocene> Pentium3, the same problem I had?
[04:59] <The_Ace> MisterEx, id Gedit on the server is running, the X is getting forwarded
[04:59] <hideki> I don't think you need root to read that file ? Do you ?
[04:59] <MisterEx> hideki: It claims so yes.
[05:00] <sinman> icarus-c: thanxs
[05:00] <MisterEx> hideki: They probably have it locked down quite strongly, it's a remote SSH server for a university :P
[05:00] <icarus-c> MisterEx, didn't you said you  could  run gedit with  ssh -X ?
[05:00] <MisterEx> Yes I can
[05:00] <MisterEx> Issue now is
[05:00] <MisterEx> I have no idea what GUI packages are installed
[05:00] <Pentium3> holocene: yep, i would click something and it would only happen on the remote.  I lowered effects and resolution and it worked like a charm, but before I figured that out, I was stuck using SSH.
[05:00] <Pentium3> Still looking for drivers.
[05:01] <icarus-c> MisterEx, oh!  you could check out /usr/share/applications/
[05:01] <icarus-c> MisterEx, those *.desktop files are application launcher you see in Application Menu
[05:01] <The_Ace> MisterEx, what packages do you want to run ?
[05:01] <icarus-c> Could you start a GNOME session  through ssh -X ? no ?
[05:01] <MisterEx> icarus-c: for CentOS there is no app folder, it's all in /usr/share
[05:01] <hideki> icarus-c: I use cat so I can easily change the search string without having to move the cursor all the way back
[05:01] <mweltin_> looking for some guidance.  My nvidia driver and kernel module don't have the same version number but so far my attempts to rectify this are not working.  running lucid if that matters.
[05:01] <MisterEx> The_Ace: Just poking around seeing what options I have
[05:02] <MisterEx> icarus-c: infact.. there are no *.deskstop files :P
[05:02] <icarus-c> hideki, i would use less and search within less in that case
[05:02] <MisterEx> icarus-c: but a list of binaries is in /usr/share
[05:02] <Pentium3> I guess that this laptop is not worth saving..
[05:02] <icarus-c> hideki, but yea. depends on the situation :P
[05:02] <Pentium3> Good night all!!
[05:03] <hideki> icarus-c: good idea. less is my favorite text editor. It's just a pity it can't edit text.
[05:03] <icarus-c> lol
[05:03] <icarus-c> it is just a text viewer
[05:03] <hideki> I know. That's the joke.
[05:03]  * icarus-c facepalm
[05:04] <BlackWeb> does anyone know of any intel display drivers for a SAMSUNG N150
[05:04] <sacarlson> BlackWeb: it's not plug and play?
[05:04] <n3kl> Hello
[05:05] <sinman> icarus-c: been thru the system settings and it's not showing no scrensavers
[05:05] <MisterEx> Anyone still following
[05:05] <MisterEx> The binaries in /usr/share
[05:05] <MisterEx> Cannot be run
[05:05] <MisterEx> For instance, there is gedit-2
[05:05] <MisterEx> I can run gedit, however.
[05:05] <FloodBot2> MisterEx: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:05] <MisterEx> gedit-2 says insufficent perms.
[05:05] <icarus-c> MisterEx, dude. that is a folder
[05:05] <BlackWeb> no I used a live cd to install Ubuntu 8.10, had to use the safe graphic mode that worked during installation but then when boot up then it goes to command prompt
[05:05] <BlackWeb> and tried everything
[05:05] <MisterEx> wow.
[05:05] <sweetpi> !enter | MisterEx
[05:05] <icarus-c> MisterEx, gedit executable should be put in  /usr/bin , and program data in /usr/share,  /usr/lib
[05:06] <MisterEx> are you SERIOUS? It is a directory.  FML.
[05:06] <MisterEx> I feel like the largest moron on the planet right now. I apologize for using enter too often
[05:06] <hideki> pbbbbt
[05:06] <icarus-c> MisterEx, you better use "ls -F --color=auto"  instead of just ls :P
[05:06] <n3kl> I am getting strange errors with ubuntu-vm-builder on lucid.  Can someone in here helo me figure out whats going on, please?  http://pastie.org/1188100
[05:07] <icarus-c> MisterEx, you could   "alias ls='ls -F --color=auto'  "
[05:07] <MisterEx> It was
[05:07] <hideki> MisterEx: The binaries are not in /usr/share
[05:07] <MisterEx> It's just that the colour scheme is different than ubuntu
[05:08] <BlackWeb> Does anyone know of any intel display drivers, or what does the Live cd use during safe mode
[05:08] <icarus-c> BlackWeb, vesa ?
[05:08] <MisterEx> My bad. I am used to having -F aliased but I haven't modified ~/.bashrc on here yet.
[05:08] <MisterEx> I rely on that, not colours
[05:08] <hideki> Also, you can use ls -F and it will display directories with a / after them
[05:08] <icarus-c> MisterEx, color is awesome too.  especially grep --color=auto
[05:08] <BlackWeb> when i go into xorg.conf then it says its using vesa, but when i try to startx then it wont come up
[05:08] <MisterEx> hideki: see up :P
[05:09] <hideki> I use alias ls='ls -F --color=none' in my .bashrc, as I find colors annoying
[05:09] <hideki> I know. Just noticed.
[05:09] <BlackWeb> its a Samsung N150, Small Nookbook
[05:09] <BlackWeb> Notebook
[05:09] <chenlong> Hello
[05:09] <sacarlson> BlackWeb: so it came up when you did startx?
[05:10] <BlackWeb> or does anyone know how to start x in safe mode from comman prompt
[05:10] <BlackWeb> no it gives a error, saying to configure xorg.conf
[05:10] <tensorpudding> you don't want to start X while in safe mode
[05:10] <BlackWeb> when i installed it I had to install it using the safe mode
[05:10] <chenlong> BlackWeb:"sudo startx"
[05:10] <shatly> I need help troubleshooting a usb flash drive
[05:10] <tensorpudding> running X as root is generally a bad idea
[05:11] <BlackWeb> says fatal server error no screens found
[05:11] <JavaAtom> Stupid problem with tmux and rtorrent -- when detaching the tmux sesson, rtorrent shuts down the torrents (as though I had typed Ctrl-D in rtorrent.) Any thoughts?
[05:11] <hideki> You would normally run /etc/init.d/gdm start as root
[05:11] <icarus-c> MisterEx, now you better "ls -F  /usr/share/applications"
[05:11] <BlackWeb> I've tried install the intel drivers, and still nothing, which the display device is intel
[05:11] <cfg> hi
[05:12] <shatly> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/4PJQYW5G
[05:12] <sacarlson> BlackWeb: maybe try ubuntu 10.04 or later.
[05:12] <shatly> is logs
[05:12] <shatly> same thing on two linux based computer (one is mint this one is ubuntu)
[05:12] <icarus-c> shatly, what's the problem you have
[05:12] <BlackWeb> Alrighty
[05:12] <BlackWeb> Thanks
[05:12] <shatly> icarus-c: it seems to connect for a second and then dissconect
[05:13] <shatly> see logs
[05:13] <chenlong> shatly:"sudo pppoeconf"
[05:13] <icarus-c> shatly, ah right. i guess usb drive's issue
[05:13] <JavaAtom> aha
[05:13] <icarus-c> chenlong, what does a usb drive has to do with pppoe..
[05:14] <cfg> can I use a ubuntu live cd to view files that windows seven have hidden/encypted in "the vault"? if so how
[05:14] <JavaAtom> Found it -- it's not when I disengage tmux, it's when I exit the SSH session.
[05:14] <shatly> chenlong: explain how configureing a dsl server will help?
[05:14] <The_Ace> JavaAtom, that is to be expecte
[05:14] <JavaAtom> The_Ace: Why?
[05:14] <JavaAtom> The_Ace: And, more appropriately, how can I fix that?
[05:15] <The_Ace> cosing the session closes all apps started in that session
[05:15] <The_Ace> slosing*
[05:15] <The_Ace> closing*
[05:15] <chenlong> I just misunderstand.
[05:15] <The_Ace> JavaAtom, use screen
[05:15] <shatly> screen++
[05:15] <The_Ace> in the ssh session, start screen
[05:15] <MisterEx> Okay one last issue
[05:15] <MisterEx> I can't seem to be able to open nautilus
[05:16] <JavaAtom> The_Ace & shatly: tmux and screen are supposed to do exactly the same thing.
[05:16] <MisterEx> but rhythmbox and gedit and other apps work?
[05:16] <shatly> ssh ->  screen -> irssi
[05:16] <shatly> ftw
[05:16] <JavaAtom> shatly: ssh -> tmux -> irssi = same damn thing.
[05:16] <The_Ace> JavaAtom, guess tmux is not doing the job or you're doing it wrong
[05:16] <JavaAtom> The_Ace: That's what I'm trying to figure out.
[05:17] <icarus-c> MisterEx, any message when you start nautilus?
[05:18] <hideki> MisterEx: Some programs won't work if they are already running locally on the server. This is the case with Firefox etc.
[05:18] <MisterEx> icarus-c: initiating open-terminal here extension or something that's all
[05:20] <hideki> Is there another file browser you could use ? Such as konqueror ?
[05:20] <MisterEx> hideki: I don't believe so.
[05:21] <hideki> I sometimes get bother with nautilus, I notice konqueror works better over ssh -X
[05:22] <hideki> I don't use ubuntu though, I run Debian
[05:23] <philsf> what's the difference between gksu and gksudo?
[05:23] <icarus-c> philsf, like   su   vs  sudo
[05:23] <maco> philsf: nothing
[05:23] <maco> philsf: gksudo is a symlink to gksu
[05:24] <philsf> maco, thanks
[05:24] <pathogen> excuse me, but which channel would I go to to talk to the developers about client side window decorationg?
[05:24] <maco> pathogen: #ubuntu-devel
[05:24] <pathogen> thanks
[05:24] <maco> pathogen: though i dont expect most to be waking up for a few hours yet
[05:25] <maco> (it's the crack of dawn in europe)
[05:25] <pathogen> ah, I see
[05:28] <hideki> uboontoo
[05:29] <glebihan> pathogen: I just joined #ubuntu-devel, I may be able to help you depending on what you need
[05:29] <glebihan> pathogen: oh by the way, wrong channel, ##linux-coders would be better
[05:30] <glebihan> pathogen: or #gtk
[05:30] <Qwert> Error after kernel update - (process 306) : GLib-WARNING**: getpwuid_r(): failed due to unknown user id(0)
[05:33] <Qwert> ...| How can I fix it?
[05:36] <glebihan> Qwert: when do you get this error ?
[05:37] <Qwert> glebihan: I found it once during the restart (as update required it). I don't remember it exactly hence didn't include it in the question
[05:38] <Qwert> glebihan: But, now the booting takes time ...
[05:39] <bullgard4> What Ubuntu document lists the Ubuntu release milestones?
[05:39] <Qwert> glebihan:
[05:40] <glebihan> bullgard4: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases
[05:40] <Qwert> Is there a way to locate the problem by dmesg
[05:41] <glebihan> Qwert: maybe, but not easy since we don't know what process produces the message
[05:42] <bullgard4> glebihan: Thank you very much for your help.
[05:42] <Qwert> glebihan: It occurred only after kernel update.
[05:42] <glebihan> bulldog98: you're welcome
[05:42] <icarus-c> *GLib* error  ---  why would you think of kernel issue in the first place :-S
[05:42] <logankoester> If I remove my primary drive while installing windows to a 2nd drive and then add it to grub later, will that prevent windows from nuking the bootloader?
[05:42] <icarus-c> and it is just a warning
[05:43] <glebihan> Qwert: you didn't get this message since the upgrade ?
[05:43] <Qwert> icarus-c: Because only kernel update caused this. It was not there before
[05:43] <pw-toxic> hi, im facing a serious problem with my software raid... i have new hardware and plugged in all my devices
[05:43] <Qwert> glebihan: No
[05:43] <pw-toxic> my raid1 got detected but my raid5 didnt... what shall i do? there are about 4 TB data i dont want to loose
[05:43] <glebihan> Qwert: well then I guess you don't have to worry about it
[05:44] <icarus-c> logankoester, Windows will nuke MBR on 2nd drive. which shouldn't matter if BIOS detect the grub one as 1st drive
[05:44] <Qwert> icarus-c: Despite it being a warning, it is taking my boot time
[05:44] <pw-toxic> i hope someone has some experience with mdadm and software raid...
[05:44] <icarus-c> Qwert, maybe boot time is lengthened by something else,  like  a force disk check
[05:44] <logankoester> icarus-c: that's fine, 2nd drive is just a mounted extra
[05:44] <logankoester> icarus-c: so I should be fine right?
[05:45] <Name141> Does Ubuntu have options to run the installer from a floppy ?
[05:45] <Name141> with no other media support
[05:45] <icarus-c> Qwert, see verbose message on boot
[05:45] <icarus-c> enable it
[05:45] <Qwert> icarus-c: No, as far a I remember, the screen stopped twice before displaying the error which I typed
[05:45] <Qwert> icarus-c: ... twice while displaying...
[05:46] <Name141> Or , using the NIC for an install ?
[05:46] <Name141> (but booting with the floppy)

[05:57] <lfuser-425> hi all
[05:57] <lfuser-425> wat is teh prb
[05:58] <MisterEx> I have made a shortcut for my dad on the desktop to play his music. it is a one line script that runs a vlc command. I want some way of not having it come up "Would you like to.. run / display / run in terminal" when double clicked. That would make his life easier and would cause less issues [he's quite comp dumb]
[05:58] <Qwert> Hi lfuser-425
[05:59] <fureste> quit
[05:59] <molly9> Hi! I'm doing a paper for school and I have a few random questions I can't find answers to. Can anyone help?
[05:59] <MisterEx> molly9: Ask em
[06:00] <Qwert> molly9: Whats the problem?
[06:00] <molly9> thanks =) Is there any way to get an average for how many security patches are released in a given time? For base Ubuntu I mean.
[06:01] <Jon--> Hmm
[06:01] <Jon--> Not sure of any way myself
[06:02] <mrwizeguy1983> molly9, how accurate do you need to be?  any of us could guess based on our update install history, but i don't know where to find accurate data
[06:02] <molly9> The other part is about when security patches fix some problems but cause others. I can't seem to find any recent examples. Maybe there are none lol.
[06:02] <molly9> you know, an educated guess is better than I can come up with wading through all of the bug fixes!
[06:02] <rww> molly9: you may find https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/ useful for the first
[06:02] <Qwert> https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-security-patch
[06:03] <pw-toxic> hi
[06:03] <mrwizeguy1983> if i had to guess, i'd say around 3 per day, but not regular, just quite a few sometimes and not many others.  not sure how accurate my guess is molly9
[06:03] <redbeans> Hello, does anyone know of an open source citrix equiv (vdi) for Linux?
[06:03] <Qwert> Te archive is having nothing new
[06:03] <pw-toxic> can i cancel a chown -R ... command without problems?
[06:03] <pw-toxic> i have done chmod on a 5 TB drive..
[06:03] <pw-toxic> which is ful
[06:03] <pw-toxic> full
[06:03] <Qwert> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-patch
[06:03] <rww> Qwert: That list is empty.
[06:03] <Richie086> hmm
[06:03] <Richie086> why did you do that
[06:03] <pw-toxic> by fail
[06:03] <rww> pw-toxic: some of the files will be chmoded and some won't, but apart from that it should be fine.
[06:03] <pw-toxic> ;)
[06:04] <pw-toxic> rww, ok thx.. then ill do it
[06:04] <blockhead> Can you convert a BlueRay video file with Devede ISO and have it work as an hD?
[06:04] <bobstro> redbeans:  you need it to run windows apps via rdp?
[06:04] <Qwert> rww: Your link works :)
[06:04] <pw-toxic> rww,  btw .. how do i cancel? :D
[06:04] <rww> pw-toxic: ctrl-c
[06:04] <pw-toxic> thx ;)
[06:04] <Jon--> pw-toxic: ctrl-c is your friend
[06:04] <redbeans> Exactly. But also virtualized desktops.
[06:04] <Jon--> pw-toxic: embrace it. love it. sleep with a little flash-card of it printed on beside your pillow at night.
[06:05] <molly9> Thanks! That first list has a good thread in it.
[06:05] <Jon--> molly9: security patches causing problems - must be ubuntu specific?
[06:05] <bobstro> redbeans:  the closest i can think of would be virtualized windows desktop, or server running terminal services. you won't save on windows licensing that way though.
[06:05] <bobstro> redbeans:  desktop as in winxp/win7 in a virtual machine, and rdp to that.
[06:05] <Qwert> icarus-c?
[06:06] <bobstro> redbeans:  does it have to be windows they remote into?
[06:06] <molly9> ubuntu specific, though I  could prolly use a general Linux example if it's recent
[06:06] <beebo> hello I need help with openbox
[06:07] <VinceN> Ok.  I will need to turn in my geek card for this
[06:07] <Change_of_Heart1> Guys
[06:07] <Jon--> I haven't used ubuntu long enough to really tell ya anything
[06:07] <VinceN> BVut when I run lshw under CPU if it says width 64 does that mean I have a 64bit capibile system
[06:07] <Qwert> !repeat | Qwert
[06:08] <Jon--> There should be an example, try Google?
[06:08] <Change_of_Heart1> Will it be easy for me to upgrade to 10.10 when it comes out, from 10.04 ??
[06:08] <Richie086> VinceN:
[06:08] <Jon--> Change_of_Heart1: 9.10 -> 10.04 was smooth for me. A few changes need to be made (like fixing custom repositories)
[06:08] <Richie086> do u have a dual core processor?
[06:08] <rww> Change_of_Heart1: Yes. Update Manager should prompt you about it, or there'll be instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes when it's released.
[06:09] <molly9> I've read that there was a problem in 06, but maybe there's been a perfect track record since then =)
[06:09] <VinceN> richie086: No Single Core Celeron in an Acer Aspire 5313.  I was pretty sure it was 32 bit
[06:09] <molly9> hard to believe tho!
[06:09] <Qwert> rww: Can you help me with my problem?
[06:09] <Change_of_Heart1> Ok, but will it be a seamless upgrade, like updating programs, or will i need to compile things etc
[06:09] <rww> Qwert: no
[06:09] <rww> Change_of_Heart1: like updating programs
[06:09] <Richie086> hmm well i know if you have a dual core system you can run or install 64 bit linux, but if your on a single core i am not too sure what that is refering to
[06:09] <Richie086> care to pastebin the output for us?
[06:10] <rww> Change_of_Heart1: you should still backup your data, just in case, but it should be smooth and practically does itself
[06:10] <Jon--> molly9: Hahaha... very doubtful.
[06:10] <Jon--> molly9: I can't give you a specific example of course, but there have been issues with packages in the past
[06:10] <VinceN> Richie086: Nah im not worried about it, I was just looking at the output for another reason anyway

[06:11] <rww> Qwert: This one is the right channel, I just don't know the answer.

Master is already in the 100, Speaker and PCM are set by default to 0 so I changed it to 100 too but still can't get any audio output.
[06:11] <molly9> maybe I'm using bad search terms ...

What to do?? (Thanks for any help!)
[06:33] <tripelb> blackdoggie, there's a page that tells you what hardware is supported. If it's not supported, well you might be lost. I cant use my webcam in Ubuntu, only in windows.

[06:36] <tripelb> blackdoggy, I dont know what that is so I dont.
[06:36] <CajunTechie> No I don't
[06:36] <anil> ok  thnx
[06:36] <robbit10> I have the idea that someone has gained my password and is logging into my computer when I am gone. How do I check?
[06:36] <blackdoggy> cajuntechie  whats  do u use alsa or pulse?
[06:36] <densone> anyone know how to install nsupdate with apt-get?
[06:36] <tripelb> I cant use the resolution of my monitor. All the text is big. will someone work with me?
[06:36] <densone> I cant seem to find the right package
[06:36] <CajunTechie> blackdoggy: let me check to make sure but I THINK PulseAudio
[06:36] <Dulak> robbit10: open a terminal and type 'last'
[06:37] <maco> blackdoggy: ive had skype work with pulse just fine
[06:37] <rww> densone: dnsutils
[06:37] <CajunTechie> Looks like PulseAudio here blackdoggy
[06:37] <blackdoggy>  tripelb do u have compiz?
[06:37] <robbit10> Dulak, hmm.. doesn't show it. But I meant logging into the GNOME screensaver lock, so that he/she gains access to the desktop.
[06:37] <densone> rww: thx
[06:38] <booknana> how to autostart apps in openbox session
[06:38] <blackdoggy> cajunTechie..  can u check for me whats ur configuration on skype input tab?
[06:38] <CajunTechie> Sure, hang on
[06:38] <Dulak> robbit10: I believe that command shows an unlock as a login
[06:38] <DarkRedman> Hi
[06:38] <CajunTechie> @Blackdoggy: Looks like it's PulseAudio. In fact, ALSA isn't even available
[06:39] <blackdoggy> so u dont have alsa installed
[06:39] <Injection33> anyone ever used critterding? the artificial life simulator?
[06:39] <robbit10> Dulak, Nope, I just locked the screen and logged back in, it still doesn't show up.
[06:39] <CajunTechie> I thought I did. I've seen it before but maybe I don't after all
[06:39] <DarkRedman> I can't chroot a directory, i got this bug : "chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': No such file or directory" How to fix it ?
[06:39] <Injection33> it's pretty fun
[06:39] <blackdoggy> i have  everything working fine till i recently updated my  system
[06:39] <CajunTechie> You know, I am not sure that I can make a call since I did an update. Let me try. Hang on

[06:40] <tripelb> blackdoggy,  no I dont have compiz. Why do you ask?
[06:40] <blackdoggy> wasnik use pulse audio
[06:40] <Dulak> robbit10: then you won't see what you need, try actually logging out, so last will see the login if someone uses it.
[06:40] <tripelb> Injection33,  FYI there is also #ubuntu-offtopic with more people to ask.
[06:41] <blackdoggy> tripelb u have to use compiz to get proper resolution and visual effects
[06:41] <tripelb> Dulak, I'm not expert but isnt there a log file which tells the time of every login.
[06:41] <DarkRedman> Who can help me for chrooting ?
[06:41] <tripelb> blackdoggy, I had it working before with no compiz.
[06:42] <Dulak> tripelb: that's the command I had him run, he's wanting to see if the screen was unlocked, not a login
[06:42] <tripelb> blackdoggy, anyone. (fuller statement of problem) my monitor has smaller everything in Windows (more resolution). I had asked in ubuntuforums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1488040 while using 9.10 and it worked. Now I'm on 10.04, same monitor, different computer, better graphics card. -- I applied it and I'm in default graphics mode and my display is in a box covering half the area of the screen. What to do?? (Thanks for an
[06:42] <tripelb> y help!)
[06:42] <blackdoggy> tripelb,  have u checked under visual effects?
[06:42] <tripelb> dulak thanks
[06:42] <blackdoggy> or may be ur theme
[06:43] <tripelb> blackdoggy, look at the link I posted above please. It clarifies the situation.
[06:43] <soreau> tripelb: That is a problem with the proprietary nvidia drivers. You may have to manually specify a mode line in your xorg.conf
[06:44] <tripelb> Does 10.04 use /etc/X11/xorg.conf  ?
[06:44] <soreau> tripelb: Yes, if it is present
[06:44] <soreau> tripelb: Which video card do you have now?
[06:44] <blackdoggy> tripleb go to system>preferences> monitor
[06:45] <soreau> blackdoggy: For the record, using compiz will not change your resolution
[06:45] <tripelb> soreau thanks for talking to me. It wasnt present. I added what I was told (that had worked in the past when I did NOT have an nvidia card) - now the "screen" is only part of my monitor screen.
[06:45] <blackdoggy> soreau u rite... i  mistook the query of tripelb
[06:46] <CajunTechie> Hey everyone: what is recommended for sound ALSA or OSS?
[06:46] <demonspork> How do I install package sun-java6-jre in lucid, it says that there is no installation candidate when I try. all sections of the repository except backports are currently enabled.
[06:46] <tripelb> soreau video card is lspci (something) |grep (something else)
[06:46] <soreau> tripelb: I don't really understand what you mean by 'now the "screen" is only part of my monitor screen.'
[06:46] <soreau> tripelb: heh, lspci|grep VGA
[06:46] <rww> demonspork: Do you have the partner repository enabled?
[06:47] <blackdoggy> soreau check this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1488040
[06:47] <demonspork> rww, how do I add that to my sources.list?
[06:47] <rww> !partner | demonspork
[06:47] <soreau> blackdoggy: I saw that but he has changed gpu's since then
[06:47] <tripelb> soreau, OK I'll explain. there's a rectangle on my screen that usually fills the screen. Now it doesnt. It's in the upper left corner and the rest is black. I had to chose default low graphics when I booted up, after I changed the /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:47] <tripelb> which had been blank
[06:48] <soreau> tripelb: Are you using the proprietary nvidia driver? Can you pastebin your X log?
[06:48] <rww> fukedrobssister: Your nickname is inappropriate for this channel. Please change it.
[06:48] <lfuser-425> where to download good screen saver for ubuntu client
[06:48] <tripelb> soreau, first my nvidia card: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV17 [GeForce4 MX 420] (rev a3)
[06:49] <soreau> lfuser-425: Install xscreensaver and run 'xscreensaver-demo'
[06:49] <blackdoggy> lfuser-425: try electric sheep
[06:49] <tripelb> soreau, how do I find my "X log"?
[06:49] <soreau> tripelb: ok, pastebin your X log
[06:49]  * tripelb never heard of an X-log
[06:49] <CajunTechie> Blackdoggy: Just confirmed: no input sound under PulseAudio
[06:49] <rww> tripelb: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:50] <soreau> tripelb: This should give you a link containing your X log: sudo apt-get install curl && cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | curl -F 'sprunge=<-' http://sprunge.us
[06:50] <soreau> tripelb: The file is /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:50] <Cityscape> How can unzip many rar (56 for example) files at once?
[06:50] <soreau> Cityscape: Sure, you can do that in bash
[06:50] <Cityscape> soreau: okay, how?
[06:51] <blackdoggy> people who is the skype expert here i am having  trouble with sounds
[06:51] <tripelb> yes! I googled it and found it too .. /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:51] <soreau> Cityscape: Are the files all in the same directory?
[06:51] <glebihan> Cityscape: unrar e *.rar
[06:51] <hideki> skype is evil
[06:51] <hideki> It is proprietary spyware
[06:51] <Cityscape> soreau: yes they all are.
[06:51] <bazhang> hideki, offtopic please stop it
[06:51] <posciak> hi, has anyone had any success mounting encrypted partitions through nfs? Is this possible? I'm getting exportfs: Warning: /home/foo/bar does not support NFS export. on the server and mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting host:/home/pav/w1/kernel on the client when attempting to mount...
[06:51] <rww> hideki: That's not very helpful. If you don't want to support Skype (which I also don't), please just don't answer.
[06:51] <hideki> And it has Digital Restrictions Management. Even rms said not to use it.
[06:51] <soreau> Cityscape: Then the command glebihan should extract them all from/to that directory
[06:52] <bazhang> hideki, again, stop it
[06:52] <anil> hey sorry i was disconnected due to application hang
[06:52] <hideki> I am just trying to help free people. Sorry if this has offended anyone.
[06:52] <bazhang> hideki, its not helpful. dont do it any further
[06:52] <blackdoggy> so noone helps me with skype
[06:53] <Cityscape> hideki: not all proprietary software is bad.
[06:53] <soreau> Cityscape: To extract into a different directory, do 'cd /path/to/where/you/want/archives/extracted/' then run 'unrar e /path/to/rar/archives/*.rar'
[06:53] <s0n1c> Hey, anyone using the Smuxi IRC client?
[06:53] <hideki> Cityscape: I hold a different opinion, but we won't go there anyway
[06:54] <Cityscape> hideki
[06:54] <Cityscape> hideki: l would like to hear your opinion. go to the room, #cityscape if you are interested.
[06:54] <bazhang> Cityscape, hideki #ubuntu-offtopic with this
[06:54] <rww> !ot
[06:57] <tripelb> soreau, I've got it now. sorry it took me a while. http://paste.ubuntu.com/502473/
[06:58] <soreau> tripelb: First I see you do not have the nvidia driver installed. Go to Sys>Admin>Hardware Drivers and see what it says
[06:59] <ibrahim-kasem1> Hi, I have installed compiz using the software center, how can i start using it now? I can't find it.
[06:59] <soreau> tripelb: And before doing that, I would remove xorg.conf and restart X
[06:59] <soreau> ibrahim-kasem1: Compiz is already installed by default.. ccsm is not however..
[06:59] <soreau> ibrahim-kasem1: Do you want to start compiz or edit it's settings?
[06:59] <ibrahim-kasem1> soreau: Yes. I want to start it.
[07:00] <JoeCoolDesk> Seriously, how do design decisions get made for Ubuntu?
[07:00] <soreau> ibrahim-kasem1: See gnome-appearance-properties (sys>prefs>appearance) and set to anything other than None, should try to start compiz
[07:00] <tripelb> soreau, I remember now. It searches for a driver and when I activate the driver something bad happens. I forgot what. shall I do that again.
[07:00] <JoeCoolDesk> Who the hell thinks it's a good idea to have a built in Twitter client and still have an interface from 2004?
[07:01] <soreau> tripelb: remove your xorg.conf before installing the driver
[07:01] <tripelb> ok
[07:01] <soreau> tripelb: It shold automatically generate a conf file when you install the driver, containing the necessary options
[07:01] <rww> JoeCoolDesk: developers meet up at Ubuntu Developer Summit once a year and decide on things like default applications (like Gwibber)
[07:01] <rww> sorry, twice a year
[07:01] <rww> once a release.
[07:02] <rww> !uds
[07:02] <Cityscape> soreau: I ran you command to extract to a different folder and it seems to be working. thanks.
[07:02] <soreau> Cityscape: Great.
[07:02] <ibrahim-kasem1> soreau: excuse me, what should I exactly do after going there? sys>prefs>appearance
[07:03] <soreau> ibrahim-kasem1: In the Visual Effects tab, there is a radio button. None is metacity. Anything else will attempt to start compiz
[07:04] <fratzbc> anybody that can help me with a resolve problem?
[07:04] <soreau> ! ask | fratzbc
[07:04] <tripelb> soreau. there's a lot to do. I've copied your suggestions into a text file. Now I'll zero out the xorg.conf first.  THEN how do I restart X? Can I do it without rebooting?
[07:04] <ibrahim-kasem1> soreau: My visual effects are set on extra.
[07:04] <fratzbc> every time i ping a non existing domain (ea: abc.org) it replies with a abc.org.mydomain.ext
[07:05] <fratzbc> so every hostname/domain replies on my own domain
[07:05] <soreau> tripelb: Sure. To restart X simply log out. But now that I think about it, as long as you 1) Remove the conf file 2) Install the driver with hardware drivers 3) Reboot. then it should work
[07:06] <tripelb> soreau, OK. have removed conf. will activate driver. see you on the flip side.
[07:11] <JoeCoolDesk> rww, so how much of a say can you ahve at the developer conference?
[07:11] <rww> JoeCoolDesk: I haven't paid enough attention to one to be able to say.
[07:14] <soreau> JoeCoolDesk: They probably have mailing lists to handle such discussions in an organized and diplomatic fashion. That is merely a guess, though ;)
[07:15] <tripelb> soreau, Thanks. This looks good. It's not perfect but it's better than ever. What's not perfect? Well like before, there's a black area of the screen unused... actually 2 black areas, a 1/2" vertical band on either side of the screen. So effectively my screen is 18" instead of 10".  I'm good but I wanted to be complete.
[07:15] <soreau> tripelb: Have you checked nvidia-settings to adjust the screens?
[07:16] <soreau> tripelb: It sounds like to me, that you are experiencing a bug with your particular monitor
[07:16] <tripelb> what nvidia settings she asks?
[07:16] <tripelb> soreau, could be. It worked on 9.04 and works now on windows.
[07:17] <soreau> tripelb: Type 'gksu nvidia-settings' in your terminal or look in sys>prefs or sys>admin for the nvidia configurator
[07:17] <mesees> help!
[07:17] <soreau> !help
[07:17] <jasonmchristos> ok , so what system are you running right now mesees ?
[07:17] <tripelb> I nw see Nvidia settings soreau - the driver installation added it.
[07:18] <jasonmchristos> mesees, why dont you just burn it to cd no cd handy?
[07:19] <mesees> jasonmchristos windows 7
[07:19] <blockhead> Can you convert a BlueRay video file with Devede ISO and have it work as an hD?
[07:19] <blockhead> Can you convert a BlueRay video file with Devede ISO and have it work as an hD?
[07:19] <mesees> its like the image i burn to the disk isnt bootable
[07:19] <jasonmchristos> mesees, burn the ubuntu iso to cd
[07:19] <soreau> tripelb: btw, can you pastebin your current X log?
[07:19] <posciak> how can I get the passphrase of an encrypted home?
[07:19] <greppy> posciak: ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase
[07:20] <mesees> jasonmchristos yup - upon trying to burn "disk image invalid"
[07:20] <greppy> mesees: what software are you using to burn the image?
[07:20] <jasonmchristos> mesees, redownload it then did you get the torrent link directly from ubuntu.com?
[07:20] <fratzbc> why is it that when I ping to idonotexist.org i get a reply from my own domain using idonotexist.org.mydomain.ext?
[07:20] <tripelb> soreau ok
[07:21] <mesees> ya - i think the issue might be that i also tried to mount it, let me unmount
[07:21] <cuddlefish_XO> fratzbc: Are you behind a firewall or proxy?
[07:21] <posciak> greppy: thank you
[07:21] <cuddlefish_XO> fratzbc: At work, for instance
[07:21] <fratzbc> cuddlefish_XO: only iptables
[07:21] <posciak> greppy: but that asks for a passphrase
[07:21] <fratzbc> cuddlefish_XO: yes at home and work behind a firewall
[07:21] <Mohan1> Hi friends.
[07:21] <fratzbc> cuddlefish_XO: the server itself just uses iptables
[07:21] <cuddlefish_XO> fratzbc: I'd say your ISP is redirecting your DNS to try to be "helpful"
[07:21] <jasonmchristos> mesees, you can verify it manually with this http://www.md5summer.org/
[07:22] <greppy> posciak: type in your normal password for logging in to the system
[07:22] <jasonmchristos> mesees, and compare it to the checksum on ubuntus website
[07:22] <fratzbc> cuddlefish_XO: i've had this before but cannot remember what the prob was, i will contact my isp for a different DNS server, thanks
[07:22] <cuddlefish_XO> fratzbc: Try 8.8.8.8
[07:23] <cuddlefish_XO> fratzbc: It's a public DNS server Google set up
[07:23] <Mohan1> Recently i was removed nvidia drivers. But now i'm unable to switch to tty1-tty6
[07:23] <Mohan1> How can i do that, so that i can install latest drivers.
[07:23] <fratzbc> cuddlefish_XO: still the same
[07:24] <mesees> jasonmchristos cranking at 370kb down now...
[07:24] <cuddlefish_XO> fratzbc: odd
[07:24] <fratzbc> cuddlefish_XO: true
[07:24]  * blueghost aaa
[07:24] <jasonmchristos> mesees, ok pretty fast
[07:25] <Mohan1> Can anybody hear me
[07:25] <c_nick> smb://xxx.xxx.xx.xx if i try to connect to this particar computer i get nothing ..
[07:25] <tripelb> soreau, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/502480/  is what I have now. (any webpages around that would help me understand it?)
[07:25] <Aciid> c_nick: if its local , check that the names are different...
[07:25] <c_nick> this is the Ip address of another PC which is running Ubuntu
[07:26] <c_nick> Aciid: names ?
[07:26] <Aciid> hostnames
[07:26] <tripelb> soreau, this is so much easier to use. It's like I have all this room on my screen and I dont have to have each window cover the others.
[07:26] <Aciid> smb particularry wil fuckup if you have identical hostnames
[07:26] <soreau> tripelb: X log interpreting can be extremely challenging, especially across different drivers and distros. Let me look at it
[07:26] <bazhang> Aciid, language please
[07:27] <Aciid> oh sorry, its the morning...
[07:27] <tripelb> soreau, at your disposal and then immediately--- I sleep
[07:27] <soreau> tripelb: Looks much better. Does this problem show up in a screenshot?
[07:28] <soreau> tripelb: If you are tired, you should come back after you have more time and are more alert. I might not be here though..
[07:28] <tripelb> I dont think so but I'll check. BTW I can see that the black on the edge is lighter than the 'non-used by the hardware' part of the screen
[07:30] <soreau> tripelb: Does it make a difference if you set effects to 'None' in Visual Effects tab of gnome-appearance-properties? (sys>prefs>appearance)
[07:30] <soreau> tripelb: Or, if they are already set to None, deos it make a difference if you set to Extra
[07:30] <tripelb> soreau, I was right. The screenshot takes the entire "screen" (drawn by Ubuntu) rather than the physical display area.
[07:30] <c_nick> Aciid: smb://c-nick/ gives "done" absolutely nothing
[07:31] <tripelb> soreau will look at effects
[07:31] <c_nick> is it possible to connect Ubuntu-Ubuntu via smb://
[07:31] <greppy> c_nick: yes, have to have samba installed
[07:31] <c_nick> how to find out if samba is installed or not
[07:31] <soreau> tripelb: btw, is this the same ubuntu installation since you switched cards?
[07:31] <greppy> c_nick: check either dpkg or synaptics
[07:31] <hideki> c_nick: you can use sshfs
[07:32] <tripelb> soreau now I have effects (and for the first time ever) I see no difference.
[07:32] <white_magic> is there some non-commandline tool for editing grub?
[07:32] <hideki> It is more secure, and has less problems.
[07:32] <tripelb> soreau tripleb thanks you (almost) from the Santa Monica pier in Cali
[07:33] <tripelb> to where you are.
[07:33] <soreau> tripelb: No problem. I have a lot more things you can try but it would take time of course
[07:33] <soreau> tripelb: I am in CO
[07:33] <soreau> tripelb: Can you post the screenshot to picpaste.com?
[07:34] <ectospasm> anyone here use the GLX version of cairo-dock?  Is there a solution to it sucking so bad?  It keeps behaving inconsistently.  I logged out and logged back in, and all it displayed was one of my subdocks.  It's too buggy to be of any use, unless there's a magic way to fix it?
[07:34] <fukedrobssister> yea
[07:34] <fukedrobssister> i shut it off
[07:34] <fukedrobssister> and never turned it on again
[07:34] <tripelb> soreau. this is not the same ubuntu installation. this is not the same computer. that's why the card is different.  I had the grizzly of a time getting ubuntu to install on my new hard drive. (something to do with the partitioning, which I did. I fixed it by redoing the format of the drive on slow with XP.)
[07:34] <tripelb> gparted would break.
[07:35] <sila> anybody here
[07:35] <soreau> ectospasm: cairo-dock has been around for some time now and while it's getting better, I've found it has consistent buggy behavior that make it barely unusable
[07:35] <sila> i had a problem
[07:35] <tripelb> haha the screen bounces in shape when I move it around with extra.
[07:35] <sila> is anyone can help me
[07:35] <soreau> tripelb: Can you post a screenshot so you can better describe what it's doing?
[07:36] <tripelb> sila there are hundreds here. stop and watch for a moment. emply chatter is the devil's strategy.
[07:36] <ectospasm> !ask | sila
[07:36] <soreau> ! ask | sila
[07:36] <tripelb> soreau, I am doing it. LOL I decided to do it this time instead of telling you. Saying what you are doing is better. :)
[07:37] <c_nick> Aciid: firefox screws up with sshfs
[07:37] <c_nick> installing samba now
[07:38] <Aciid> c_nick: try ping'ing the hosts first. before any trickydoodilydyy
[07:39] <sila> my touchpad can't use
[07:39] <Aciid> I once debugged an SMB connection for a whole day, only to notice I was trying to connect to myself..
[07:41] <sila> i have already set up the Gsynaptic thouch drives
[07:41] <froud> got a small problem. 10.4 - Update Manager just ran an update. It was interrupted by a power failure. On reboot it loaded and I did apt-get update and apt-get upgrade, it then said I must run dpkg --configure -a but then when I reboot all I get is a command prompt as login. Any ideas?
[07:42] <sila> and xorg.conf is also update the shmconfig ture
[07:42] <tripelb> soreau, http://picpaste.com/upload.php  or better http://imgur.com/FendC
[07:43] <sila> bug info is SHMCONFIG TURE must be setted
[07:43] <tripelb> soreau imgur.com works well for pictures.
[07:44] <sila> my ubuntu is chinese simple langues
[07:44] <sila> ubuntu 10.04
[07:44] <c_nick> Aciid: I get Index of smb://xxx.xxx.xx.xx/ But then there is nothing if i do smb://xxx.xxx.xx.xx/home/c_nick/ it says Firefox can't find the file at smb://xxx.xxx.xx.xx/home/c_nick .
[07:44] <soreau> tripelb: yes. now can you better explain what I'm looking at? Is the area shown, in reality on your monitor, only part of the screen?
[07:44] <pehden> that was wierd
[07:45] <sila> i google my problem
[07:45] <EthanZ6174> sila what is your problem ？
[07:45] <sila> touchpad cann't work
[07:45] <tripelb> soreau, this complete picture is on my monitor. There is a black band on either side of what you see. This band is part of the area that the CRT traces but it's not "in the picture".  (maybe it's outside of the aspect ration in the driver.
[07:45] <soreau> ! chinese | sila
[07:46] <EthanZ6174> any switches for your touchpad?
[07:46] <hideki> c_nick: you usually have to create a separate directory with smb, that is why I suggested ssh. It is more reliable
[07:46] <EthanZ6174> sila and i think you should check you X11 config
[07:46] <fukedrobssister> i have problem with my chram
[07:46] <greezmunkey> *Q* Regarding Ubuntu - I would like to set up free radius in a test environment. Will the desktop version work for this, or should I just go for server?
[07:46] <cjae> http://havetheknowhow.com/Install-Ubuntu.html foolwing this page how come I can only connect to my media server from windows?
[07:46] <sila> ye  ethanz6174
[07:47] <illuminaris> My evolution mail client search doesn't work. When I type in a search term the list is blank even if I know there is an e-mail by that user or title. I can't find any guides or (answered) posts addressing this problem. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Lucid Lynx .
[07:47] <sila> i can;t find X11config
[07:47] <cjae> is NFS installed by deafult in ubuntu-server?
[07:47] <soreau> tripelb: I do not see any black bands in that shot..
[07:47] <c_nick> hideki: so what should I do now.. ?
[07:47] <sila> there's no such file
[07:47] <fukedrobssister> is my chram going to be normal soon ?
[07:47] <dancek> greezmunkey, install whichever you like, you can install the same packages for both.
[07:47] <c_nick> i tried with sshfs no use
[07:48] <hideki> You can use ssh in the same way without sshfs
[07:48] <soreau> tripelb: FWIW, <3 mc escher though ;)
[07:48] <sacarlson> sila:  it's not needed,  only used if you setup a custom propraitary stuf
[07:48] <hideki> e.g. ssh://host/home/<user>/
[07:48] <sila> 11-x11-synaptics.fdi  there's no such file
[07:48] <fukedrobssister> will someone check on my chram ? it is not working
[07:48] <hideki> sometimes it is sftp:// and not ssh://
[07:48] <greezmunkey> dancek: That's kind of what I figured, and desktop will be a little easier to test with / configure / etc. Thanks.
[07:49] <c_nick> hideki: Firefox can't find the server at .
[07:50] <hideki> strange..
[07:50] <fukedrobssister> can someone help me fix my chram ?
[07:50] <greppy> c_nick: I must have missed it, what problem are you trying to solve?
[07:51] <mesees> 2min for my iso!
[07:51] <mesees> i need to sleep though
[07:52] <lfuser-425> hi
[07:52] <mesees> yo
[07:52] <lfuser-425> anybody knows installaion of orangehrm app in ubuntu server
[07:52] <sacarlson> c_nick: I never heard of firefox used with samba,  you might try nautilus to open ssh file systems and samba
[07:53] <fukedrobssister> I HAVE FIXED MY CHRAM!!!!!!!!
[07:53] <sacarlson> fukedrobssister: cool
[07:55] <fukedrobssister> yes
[07:55] <Jon--> Quick tip please! Multiple man pages of same name, how do I pull a different one? [ex: man write  I want the write from GNU C not the binary]
[07:55] <Jon--> A bit new to nix, thanks to anyone that can give me quick reply
[07:56] <rww> Jon--: put the section number first. "man 2 write" in this case, I think
[07:56] <gartral> is there any web browsers available for linux that come as prebuilt binary files?
[07:57] <Jon--> rww: ty
[07:57] <tripelb> soreau, FTW mc escher. I found that today at http://vospe.com/2010/09/28/artsy-hacks-the-strange-worlds-of-m-c-escher/   (It replaced my Amsterdam bookstore after dusk when the inside lights are yellowish.)
[07:57] <damascene> hi,
[07:57] <tripelb> soreau, anything else?
[07:57] <Guiles> Olá
[07:57] <sacarlson> gartral almost all I can think of, firefox, chrome
[07:57] <Guiles> a todos
[07:58] <damascene> any one knows from where should I get the latest Evolution? I need its PPA because the one installed is too buggy with RTL
[07:58] <rww> !br | Guiles
[07:58] <Guiles> há brasileiros cristãos aqui?
[07:58] <soreau> tripelb: I still don't fully understand your issue. I see the bg is slightly smaller that the furthest edge of the left window but I don't see any black bards
[07:58] <soreau> bars*
[07:58] <gartral> sacarlson: those need to be installed by apt/dpkg.. my hdd is failing.. and i need a web browser i can execute from flashdrive
[07:59] <sacarlson> gartral: you can download the tar files from the originators
[08:00] <jesse_> can someone please help me with openvpn?  NetworkManager won't import the client config file properly...
[08:00] <gartral> sacarlson: you seem too be missing the point, i cant compile, cause i dont have build essentials, and i cant install because apt/dpkg are in bad sectors of this hdd..
[08:01] <sacarlson> gartral: I guess you could also put the deb file on your flash drive and install that
[08:01] <mesees> its reboot time, wish me luck
[08:01] <sacarlson> gartral.  they also have precompiled tars
[08:01] <gartral> sacarlson: again, that isnt an option. i have a failing hdd and no browser to order a new one
[08:02] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, library computer
[08:02] <sacarlson> gartral: you can install another copy of ubuntu onto your flash and run from that
[08:02] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, or yeah, a rescue cd on a stick
[08:03] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: my liabrary sucks, all their computers are locked in steel desks, and they have download blockers so you cant download anything
[08:03] <tsukiyomi> A little help regarding monitor mode.. anyone
[08:03] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, what do you have access to?
[08:03] <gartral> and too add insult to injury, they charge for time
[08:03] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, IRC?
[08:04] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: irssi, fsck, /boot is a seperate hd thank god, and a few games
[08:04] <tripelb> soreau, I'm done for the night. Thanks for helping me. I am very very happy with the result. I'm more productive. and I tickled your Escher fancy in return.  So to whereever you are, tripleWAVES

[08:04] <james333james> hi there
[08:04] <Zeissen> Hi
[08:05] <james333james> i need to set a Perl Script working on startup
[08:05] <james333james> does anybody can help me?
[08:05] <tsukiyomi> Anyone knows why does my monitor mode goes back to managed mode?
[08:05] <glebihan> james333james: when exactly do you want it to be run ?
[08:05] <james333james> gebi
[08:06] <james333james> glebihan: it's gbackgfround a perl script that switch wallpapers within time
[08:06] <james333james> glebihn: you can fin it in the official repositories but it's bettere to install the debian version that is 1.3.1 that fix some bugs
[08:07] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: i have a droid, that's what i can transfer downloaded stuff from, but verizon is so damn slow i don't want to do anything that might not work
[08:07] <bazhang> james333james, installing from debian repos? not a good idea at all
[08:07] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, I'm looking for a static build of wget for you. That would help.
[08:07] <tsukiyomi> Has anyone used wireshark that could lend me a hand here?
[08:07] <Richie086> tsukiyomi: yeah
[08:07] <\DSAFEW\> tsukiyomi, yes and #wireshark
[08:08] <rww> tsukiyomi: If you have Network Manager running, it tends to do that.
[08:08] <tsukiyomi> thnxs its about leaving monitor mode on
[08:08] <glebihan> james333james: you could add it to the startup applications
[08:08] <\DSAFEW\> ahh I see your question now
[08:08] <james333james> bazhang: there was no way to install the last version from the ubuntu repos, and anyway the program works really fine, i just don't know how to set it on startup so that i don't have to start manually every boot
[08:08] <tsukiyomi> whenever i set it up in about 3 or 4 sec it goes back to managed
[08:08] <rww> !wfm
[08:08] <konbon> Hello fellas. Is there some one who can help me with a serious emergency. I ran a virus that's very malicious on my windows pc (windows 7 64 bit) and i am now on Ubuntu attempting to clean it up. Problem is, it wont let me mount the drive i need to clean. Any suggestions?
[08:08] <bazhang> james333james, then you are on your own; that is in no way supported here
[08:09] <ranjan> Hi all
[08:09] <konbon> i am willing to pay for the help
[08:09] <james333james> glebihan: if i add the program in the startup applications it start ups on the boot but i have to push the button on the windows to set it works
[08:09] <konbon> this is a serious emergency, all my work data is in there
[08:09] <james333james> glebihan: i would like to find a proper command to set it working automatically on startup then add this on the boot
[08:09] <jasonmchristos> konbon, what do you need?
[08:09] <ranjan> when we type ls -l the output shows some number after "total" eg: "total 114" what that number signifies??
[08:09] <konbon> a way to mount my drive
[08:09] <glebihan> james333james: hold on, taking a look at it
[08:09] <konbon> it says it cant
[08:10] <konbon> lemme show you the screen cap
[08:10] <konbon> 1sec
[08:10] <gartral> konbon: what's the exact error
[08:10] <konbon> getting that info now
[08:10] <james333james> glebihan:  thank you so much
[08:10] <mr_successfull> Why are so many people  in here?
[08:11] <james333james>  glebihan: i suggest you the 1.3.1 version cos the 1.2 doens't save settings
[08:12] <glebihan> james333james: I would not recommend using this software, it's a dead project since 2007 apparently
[08:12] <devkhadka> in my system /var/cache/debconf/password.dat file is locked by another process, because of that i cannot login into my phpmyadmin, how can i fix it
[08:12] <james333james> glebihan:  what's wrong with it ?
[08:13] <mr_successfull> lol
[08:13] <mr_successfull> I was just on that case (/var/cache/debconf/password.dat file)
[08:13] <\DSAFEW\> tsukiyomi, I'm trying to help gar get his computer working now, someone said it was your network manager earlier
[08:13] <glebihan> james333james: as I said, it's been dead for 3 years
[08:13] <devkhadka> mr_successfull, yeah saw lots of issues regarding same
[08:13] <asterhex> hi everybody I've got a question on  servermail and ubuntu. can anyone help me?
[08:14] <\DSAFEW\> tsukiyomi, also, it's fine to talk here, more people might get involved in the solution
[08:14] <james333james> glebihan:  i didn't find a better program to switch the wallpaper so easy and light, and as I told you it works really fine for me, i just need to set it on startup
[08:14] <konbon> gartral: this is the error i get http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/7821/error1oo.jpg
[08:14] <tsukiyomi> alright
[08:14] <gartral> konbon: weblinks are useless for me atm
[08:14] <sacarlson> konbon: so far this is all I found on windows 7 mount partition http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8372018
[08:14] <konbon> Oh, well, is there anyone else who can help me mount this windows ntfs drive?
[08:14] <devkhadka> mr_successfull, did you find which process has locked the file? and how to see it
[08:15] <gartral> mr_successfull: it's ALLWAS busy in here
[08:15] <glebihan> james333james: ok I'll see what I can do
[08:15] <james333james> glebihan:  thank you so much
[08:15] <jasonmchristos> konbon, didnt you get my pm?
[08:15] <mr_successfull> Copy the current .dat file and paste it on your desktop
[08:16] <konbon> yeah, just saw it now
[08:16] <c_nick> hwo can i access 2 pcs using samba.. ? where should i make the share folder
[08:16] <sacarlson> konbon: can you boot windows 7 in safemode and shutdown clean?  then maybe it will mount in ubuntu
[08:16] <glebihan> james333james: btw, if I may, here is a similar application I developed for gnome : https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnomebgutils/
[08:16] <optimum> hi, i was wondering if anyone can tell me what the industry standard password hashing algorithm is.  i was considering sha1 but apparently it is not secure
[08:16] <mr_successfull> and then change .dat to .txt
[08:17] <sila_> chinese ubuntu CHANNEL IS WHAT
[08:17] <james333james> glebihan:  You did that?
[08:17] <rww> sila_: #ubuntu-cn
[08:17] <pLr> !cn | sila_
[08:17] <tsukiyomi> how do you disable or turn off the network manager?
[08:17] <rww> optimum: SHA-2, I think
[08:17] <glebihan> james333james: yep
[08:17] <sila_> 3Q
[08:17] <james333james> Glebelg:  great!! That's much better!! Wait i will install it
[08:17] <mr_successfull> geez what is this? one million businesses for one program?
[08:18] <pLr> ^^|
[08:18] <jbl> james333james: have a look at System->Preferences->Sessions
[08:18] <james333james> Glebelg:  is this apps in the official repositories ?
[08:18] <bazhang> !ot | mr_successfull
[08:18] <glebihan> james333james: no
[08:18] <optimum> rww: are there any drawbacks to simply going with sha-384?
[08:18] <james333james> jbl: what?
[08:18] <james333james> glebihan:  why is not there?
[08:18] <sacarlson> tsukiyomi: sudo service network-manager stop
[08:19] <jbl> james333james: for adding a program to be run at login time
[08:19] <glebihan> james333james: cause getting an application into official repositories is not simple, and I never took the time to try to do it
[08:19] <rww> optimum: SHA-384 is one particular configuration of the SHA-2 algorithm. Should work fine.
[08:20] <james333james> jbl: it's not the problem to do that, the problem is to run it on startup with the proper command, if i just add this program to the startup the windows program will be prompted and i'll have to set and start it manually
[08:20] <devkhadka> mr_successfull, why is that and whats next
[08:20] <optimum> rww: cool.  that's good to know.  thanks
[08:21] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, wait, how are you online if you only have irssi?
[08:21] <mr_successfull> That is as far as I could go though haha. But I next to experiment with this problem.
[08:21] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, I meant, extensively what is available?
[08:21] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: what do you mean? look at my ip, i'm on with my phone
[08:22] <gartral> ohh wait, i have a cloak, thats right, nvm
[08:22] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, so your irssi is on the phone?
[08:22] <konbon> question, i tried to mount the ntfs drive, but it says i cant, i need to be root
[08:22] <blackdoggy> is anybody able to make transparent effects in ubntu
[08:22] <konbon> how can i root on live cd?
[08:22] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: yes, it's just a single program, i've been working on porting it for some time.. it's a pain
[08:22] <mr_successfull> Regardless to just keep your files on the desktop.
[08:23] <glebihan> konbon: using sudo
[08:23] <konbon> so, do sudo before the command?
[08:23] <sacarlson> konbon: sudo su and you will have root  #
[08:23] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, so what's not working? computer only has a /boot right?
[08:23] <konbon> Thanks mate, trying now
[08:23] <Renderspec> anybody know what is the command to what internet hosts the system is connected to?
[08:24] <blackdoggy> hi everyone transparent efect on  ubuntu gnome
[08:24] <glebihan> konbon: do not use sudo su, but sudo -i
[08:24] <iceroot> sacarlson: dont use sudo su!! its setting the environment wrong
[08:24] <Renderspec> anybody know what is the command to view the internet hosts the system is connected to?
[08:24] <konbon> this is the command i want to execute
[08:24] <hideki> netstat -nt
[08:24] <konbon> "ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo su mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdd1 /media/w00ty -o force
[08:24] <konbon> su: invalid option -- 't'"
[08:24] <sacarlson> iceroot: if you use the other it changes the path you started from
[08:24] <Renderspec> hideki: thanks
[08:24] <konbon> sorry, not really using a proper irc client
[08:24] <iceroot> konbon: dont use sudo su!
[08:24] <glebihan> konbon: just "sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdd1 /media/w00ty -o force"
[08:25] <konbon> Thanks
[08:25] <\DSAFEW\> blackdoggy, look for the "alpha" levels on windows
[08:25] <sacarlson> iceroot: use sudo su
[08:25] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: the main / partition has som 200000+ bad sectors. it screwed up ff, chrome, apt, dpkg, wget, nexuiz, and most of my nautilus. but, other things work fine, like irssi on the comp, and a few games.. and wine
[08:26] <iceroot> sacarlson: again, dont recoomend sudo su here
[08:26] <sacarlson> iceroot:  try your methode after you $cd /some/very/long/path/that/took/two/hours/to/find
[08:26] <iceroot> sacarlson: you mean sudo -i
[08:26] <glebihan> sacarlson: sudo su should never be used, it doesn't correctly set environment variables
[08:26] <blackdoggy> \DSAFEW\ where will i find that ?
[08:26] <sacarlson> iceroot: yes sudo -i changes you back to root /
[08:26] <moon> hello
[08:26] <iceroot> sacarlson: if you dont want to hear, please stop supporting here
[08:27] <mr_successfull> devkhadka what desktop program do you have for your computer?
[08:27] <moon> i am a freshman
[08:27] <konbon> glebihan: you are a life saver
[08:27] <glebihan> sacarlson: then use "sudo -s", which won't change your working directory
[08:27] <mr_successfull> Let me guess Linux
[08:27] <blackdoggy> \DSAFEW\: where will i find that ?
[08:27] <konbon> glebihan: how can i ever repay you?
[08:27] <sacarlson> glebihan: I didn't know that sudo -s
[08:27] <hideki> GNU/Linux
[08:27] <mr_successfull> ubuntu
[08:27] <glebihan> konbon: no need too, I'm here to help :)
[08:27] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, I see, wow, so have you scoured your bins for networking programs like netcat and lynx?
[08:28] <sacarlson> iceroot: so stop using sudo -i use sudo -s
[08:28] <iceroot> sacarlson: can you stopping being a troll?
[08:28] <mr_successfull> lol
[08:28] <glebihan> sacarlson: those are too different options, sudo -i starts a login shell, not sudo -s
[08:28] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, I can get you the static wget for windows, not sure if wine will run it
[08:29] <iceroot> sacarlson: please read the manpage from sudo before posting strange things here. thank you
[08:29] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: neither work, wget is screwed, w3m works, but that's next-to-crud..
[08:29] <\DSAFEW\> hehe
[08:29] <moon> quit
[08:29] <mr_successfull> I see
[08:29] <gartral> moon: quitting is for quitters!
[08:29] <glebihan> james333james: have been looking at gbackground, can't find any options to start it without showing the window
[08:30] <\DSAFEW\> w3m to download something to the /boot drive? install from there?
[08:30] <Moopz> Hey. So I downloaded the tarball of themes from here: http://grub.gibibit.com/Themes for the grub2, but I have no clue how to install it. The script included doesn't work.
[08:30] <james333james> gebihan: ok maybe it will be easier to rewrite the script LOL
[08:30] <glebihan> james333james: plus it uses a lot of deprecated gtk methods, so once again, I wouldn't use it
[08:30] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: im not sure how to make it work, but i cant install, apt and dkpg are borked
[08:30] <gartral> dpkg*
[08:30] <glebihan> james333james: did you give a try to my app ?
[08:31] <james333james> glebihan: did it works silently on startup and will let me switch autmatically the wallpaper within 15 seconds?
[08:31] <babu__> i'm a linux bee....can you please define about open source....
[08:31] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, right, well, can you decompress a tarball?
[08:31] <babu__> i'm a new linux bee....can you please define about open source....
[08:32] <james333james> glebihan:  usually i don't install stuff that doesn't came from official repositories
[08:32] <glebihan> james333james: you'll have to add it to your startup applications, then you'll have an icon in the notification area
[08:32] <glebihan> james333james: I understand that
[08:32] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: just tryed, no, tar is throwing bus error
[08:33] <twiztid> quick question (should be): how could i create a ubuntu 10.04 install disk including everything ive done to it thus far?
[08:33] <james333james> glebihan:  when the icon will appear on startup do i have to start the program manually anyway?
[08:33] <james333james> appears
[08:33] <chu> Hey all, wondering if someone can help me out. I'm a bit sick of maximizing gnome-terminal whenever I open it. Now I could just use a shortcut and put "gnome-terminal --maximize" as the launch command, but because I use gnome-do this isn't really satisfactory. I've tried creating a custom terminal launcher through Preferred Applications, but it doesn't seem to have any effect. Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?
[08:34] <ross_> hello
[08:34] <konbon> anyone here know how to use clamAV or have a tutorial?
[08:34] <konbon> im not so good with terminal commands
[08:34] <glebihan> james333james: no it will start automatically, the icon will you access to configuration
[08:34] <konbon> but i can learn
[08:34] <Moopz> Hey. So I downloaded the tarball of themes from here: http://grub.gibibit.com/Themes for the grub2, but I have no clue how to install it. The script included doesn't work... Anyone?
[08:34] <babu__> i'm a new linux bee....can you please define about open source....
[08:35] <chu> konbon: Does "man clamAV" (or whatever the executable for clamAV is) give you anything?
[08:35] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, can you use mount isofs and loopback devices?
[08:35] <ross_> when my computer is connected to the internet, sometimes, there is a pictures of a device on where the wireless icon is, what does that mean??
[08:35] <konbon> chu: i tried just clamav but no, nothing
[08:35] <konbon> should i try man clamav ?
[08:36] <konbon> did not work :(
[08:36] <chu> konbon: Well, if clamav does nothing, man clamav won't either. Just let me do some googling
[08:36] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, freshclam && clamscan /
[08:36] <konbon> im downloading avast linux edition
[08:36] <konbon> thanks \DSAFEW\
[08:36] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, oh
[08:36] <chu> Well there you have it. Thanks \DSAFEW\ :)
[08:36] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, -R I think
[08:36] <morbidwar> Hello anyone was able to install Canon imagerunner 2520 on 10.04?
[08:36] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, it's not recursive by default
[08:36] <lwqlwq> hi! I want to ask a problem about vim
[08:37] <konbon> Thanks
[08:37] <lwqlwq> when some error occurs while vim running the scripts , the message will appeared and disappeared soon at the bottom of vim . how to find the history of them?
[08:37] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, and you can set up freshclam to auto-update
[08:37] <konbon> so, the full text would be "freshclam && clamscan -R" ?
[08:37] <gartral> \DSAFEW\: if i had the usable space for an iso, im only seeing about 300 mb that are free and not corrupt
[08:37] <\DSAFEW\> gartral, oooh... what about the /boot drive?
[08:37] <twiztid> what program creates a ubuntu install disk from my current install?
[08:37] <chu> babu__: I don't entirely understand your question, but you could start by reading this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source
[08:38] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, clamscan -r /
[08:38] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, lowercase r and / is the path
[08:38] <babu__> i want to knoe the differnece between open source and foss
[08:38] <\DSAFEW\> babu__, foss is for your teef
[08:39] <maco> babu__: the "os" in foss *is* "open source"
[08:39] <chu> babu__: It's mostly about language to be honest.
[08:39] <maco> babu__: the last "s" is "software and the "f" is "free" in case you want to emphasize software freedom
[08:40] <wamicho> hey got a litle problem when i update my box there is this message Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/tvst-hotmail/cardapio/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz  404  Not Found
[08:40] <babu__> in what ways open source is different from open source
[08:40] <morbidwar> Hello anyone was able to install Canon imagerunner 2520 on 10.04?
[08:40] <twiztid> as in, custom install disk including everything i have done/installed to my current install
[08:40] <hideki> free software is more about freedom
[08:40] <rww> babu__: open source and open source are the same
[08:40] <hideki> open source is more about cost
[08:40] <konbon> Thanks \DSAFEW\
[08:41] <babu__> sorry...in what ways open source is different from free software(foss-free and open source software)
[08:41] <maco> babu__: the definitions are pretty much identical
[08:41] <hideki> free software and open source refer to the same thing
[08:41] <konbon> \DSAFEW\: will this clean up malware as well?
[08:41] <ross_> how do you join the ubuntu off topic channel
[08:42] <llutz_> !ot
[08:42] <maco> babu__: its just some people like one term more than the other.  free emphasis software freedom. open is more about emphasising the development model. the result is the same
[08:42] <cuddlefish_XO> ross_: type /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:42] <llutz_> to join, type "/join #ubuntu-offtopic"
[08:42] <enav> hi guys... I'm using Linux/ubuntu+eclipse+xdebug to debug my php code...  actually i can see variables in the global scope, but when i try to see variables inside functions they just show empty values... I'm surfed Internet about 2 hour looking for a solution with out success... any suggestion???
[08:42] <hideki> however, calling it free software shows that you care more about the issues of freedom, whereas open source is more about cost and technical advantage
[08:42] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, I don't think so, not all of it
[08:43] <konbon> Oh, :(
[08:43] <\DSAFEW\> konbon, things with TOS will probably be immune to the AV
[08:43] <konbon> i installed a terrible virus on my windows rig
[08:43] <konbon> what's TOS?
[08:43] <cuddlefish_XO> konbon: It depends

[08:45] <cuddlefish_XO> !help > xliv3
[08:45] <konbon> \DSAFEW\: with this -r setting, will it actually get rid of the virus detections or does it move them to a folder?
[08:46] <konbon> i mounter the drive thanks to glebihan
[08:46] <xliv3> hello is it possible to add a animated login screen on ubuntu ?
[08:46] <xliv3> maby a flash animated

[08:47] <chu> xliv3: Check out this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=905319
[08:48] <xliv3> well chu I googled .. but and also I saw that thread .. but I didnt get anything usefull
[08:48] <twiztid> anyone have a suggestion as to how i could create a install disk from my current ubuntu install so that when i reinstall ubuntu its installed with all the settings and programs within it
[08:48] <xliv3> I just wana know weda its possible or not ..I'll try to do somthing by own
[08:48] <konbon> well, lets hope this cleans up some of the virus
[08:49] <konbon> this is what i get for using plain messenger and clicking on a url from an unknown user
[08:49] <llutz_> pebkac
[08:51] <greppy> twiztid: settings for your user?  or for the system?
[08:51] <bullgard4> Why is running on my Lucid computer the process »modem-manager« although I do not have a GSM, CDMA, or UMTS card?
[08:52] <blakkheim> bullgard4: because ubuntu comes with a lot of things you probably won't ever need
[08:52] <cuddlefish_XO> bullgard4: It just runs whether you have one or not
[08:52] <twiztid> greppy: everything, so that i dont have to set it up from scratch, basically like a snapshot of it right now, on a bootable/installable disk
[08:52] <blakkheim> or use at all
[08:52] <twiztid> greppy: btw thx for ur reply
[08:52] <cuddlefish_XO> so if you get one, it'll work
[08:52] <chu> twiztid: Settings are mostly saved to your /home/<user> directory. For a list of packages installed you can either go through Synaptic or there's some terminal commands.
[08:53] <berkes> good-day, After a reïnstall, I have trouble with my desktopcouch/evolution (ubuntu one sync). Somehow it does no sync and often comes up with an error "Error while loading addressbook ..... Details: action not allowed"
[08:53] <konbon> is there any way to force the resolution of a screen?
[08:53] <konbon> im on 800x600 and cant see much on it
[08:53] <bullgard4> blakkheim: I don't think that Ubuntu maintainers are that dumb.
[08:53] <konbon> i need to click something and it out of the reach of the GUI
[08:53] <berkes> how can I debug this best? Strace gives me no hints. Any logs for desktopcouch or evolution?
[08:53] <konbon> due to the resolution
[08:53] <blakkheim> bullgard4: it'd be better that i not offer my opinion there
[08:53] <greppy> twiztid: setting up the entire system could be a little rough.  basically back up your home directory, that will handle most of what you have on the desktop or saved configs for applications
[08:54] <greppy> twiztid: backing up /etc can save most of what you have there.
[08:54] <bullgard4> cuddlefish_XO: Why is there that waist of ressources?
[08:54] <bullgard4> cuddlefish_XO: Why is there that waste of ressources?
[08:54] <greppy> twiztid: why do you want to reinstall btw?
[08:54] <blakkheim> bullgard4: ubuntu is meant to run on a large range of hardware, including old legacy stuff, so they include support for lots of things
[08:55] <greppy> modem-manager could be used for bluetooth as well (I haven't checked, but it's a possibility)
[08:55] <bullgard4> blakkheim: I know that. Still, it an easy matter not to start a process that is not needed.
[08:56] <niko-nojo> Hi guys - I'm trying to use sed to replace this string varchar(10) from a file with null but not sure how to do it. The number inside the brackets can be any number. I've got a basic string replacement working but not sure on brackets and numbers part.
[08:56] <rww> apparently not so easy
[08:56] <angelo> chi parla italiano
[08:56] <xev> hey, any one can help me how to connect to wifi using terminal/wpa_applicant
[08:56] <tensorpudding> !it | angelo
[08:57] <konbon> Is there a way to apply the video driver on a liveCD?
[08:57] <bullgard4> !it | angelo
[08:57] <chu> twiztid: If you don't mind using a command line, the command "dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstall > $BCKP_PCKGLST" will export a list of currently installed packages (you might want to save sources.list [assuming you have modified it] and your /etc/fstab too), once you have done the re-install you can run the command "dpkg --set-selections < $BCKP_PCKGLST
[08:57] <greppy> niko-nojo: off the top of my head sed -i 's/varchar\([0-9]+\)//g' $filename (not tested, at your own risk, etc etc)
[08:57] <Moopz> Hey. I'm trying to install the grub2 themes from http://grub.gibibit.com/ but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to install them. Can anyone help?
[08:58] <konbon> it says i need to restart the computer to activate the video driver,  but if i do this, it will just go back to original live settings no?
[08:58] <konbon> since im on live
[08:58] <konbon> livecd
[08:58] <glebihan> Moopz: what exactly did you download ?
[08:59] <Moopz> I downloaded the iso from there. It included 4 themes.
[08:59] <chu> twiztid: If you don't mind using a command line, the command "dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstall > $BCKP_PCKGLST" will export a list of currently installed packages (you might want to save sources.list [assuming you have modified it] and your /etc/fstab too), once you have done the re-install you can run the command "dpkg --set-selections < $BCKP_PCKGLST; dselect" which will re-install all the old packages, replace the sources.li
[08:59] <sacarlson> konbon: yes I think it will do nothing in a livecd boot
[09:00] <niko-nojo> greppy - thx, don't think that works. Its the regex part I'm struggling with
[09:00] <konbon> ic :_(
[09:01] <sacarlson> konbon: I think I mounted the real boot disk from live boot and modified the /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:01] <konbon> found a way :P
[09:02] <twiztid> greppy: ok, cool, well long story short,,, XP installed first, then 7, then ubuntu... (MBR<--GRUB2)  MBR contained "earlier version of windows" [which is XP], and "Windows 7";;; to get there i had to select Windows 7 (loader)...   OK, then xp got a virus, so i activated the 7 partition and migrated the xp BOOT record to 7's partition and told 7 to allocate the free space xp left behind; so...
[09:02] <twiztid> ...now i have a mess of chainlinked boot records that i want to just completely reinstall XP then 7, then Ubuntu... so its nice and clean but im just too lazy to re set up ubuntu from scratch and update it, and install all the little tweaks and settings etc...
[09:02] <konbon> moved the bottom bar to the left

[09:02] <FloodBot2> twiztid: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:02] <konbon> now i can see the scan button :)
[09:02] <konbon> thanks anyways mates
[09:02] <konbon> <3 this place
[09:02] <konbon> <3 ubuntu
[09:02] <rww> LordDragon: oh, you just needed to move a window? Hold down the alt key, drag the window.
[09:02] <rww> konbon: **
[09:02] <niko-nojo> greppy - this is what I have so far sed -e 's/varchar/bar/g' myfile.txt
[09:03] <Moopz> glebihan: Any clue on how to install it?
[09:03] <greppy> twiztid: ok, backup /etc, grab the packaage list as previously stated, backup your /home/$user dir
[09:03] <glebihan> Moopz: hold on, I'm looking at it
[09:03] <Moopz> glebihan, thanks :)
[09:03] <twiztid> chu: thx for your reply... looking into it, seems complicated
[09:04] <chu> twiztid: It's probably overwhelming for someone who doesn't have much terminal experience. I can walk you through it if need be.
[09:04] <Jigal> can anyone please tell me how to send a file using pastebinit
[09:04] <greppy> niko-nojo: that will spit out the file with changing varchar for bar.
[09:05] <konbon> rww: yeah?
[09:05] <niko-nojo> greppy - ya - easier to see if it works
[09:05] <cmyk> hi
[09:05] <fish_sticks> Jigal open pastie.org and paste your code and paste that link wherever
[09:05] <greppy> niko-nojo: can you put your example file up on pastebot?
[09:05] <rww> konbon: see the message right above that. alt-drag moves windows.
[09:05] <chu> twiztid: Alternatively, if you give me a few seconds I'll find out how to do it with Synaptic package manager so you won't need to use the command line.
[09:05] <greppy> niko-nojo: you are basically trying to replace varchar($somebumber) with something else, yes?
[09:05] <konbon> epic
[09:05] <konbon> ty :)
[09:05] <cmyk> I just installed ubuntu as a vm for testing. wanted to install Acrobat reader 9
[09:05] <Jigal> fish_sticks, cant do that working trhough a shell thats why i want to use pastebinit
[09:06] <niko-nojo> greppy - example file is basic , contains varchar(10)
[09:06] <niko-nojo> varchar(1)
[09:06] <niko-nojo> varchar(99)
[09:06] <cmyk> did that in the software center
[09:06] <greppy> k
[09:06] <cmyk> under installed software it says it's installed.
[09:06] <greppy> gimme a second :)
[09:06] <cmyk> where the heck?
[09:06] <twiztid> chu: that would be ideal, i thought there was a program that created ubuntu install disks based on the current ubuntu installation
[09:07] <llutz_> Jigal: pastebinit -i file        iirc
[09:07] <james333james> Hey i just installed wine 1.2 but the installer didn't create the wine menu in the Application Menu
[09:07] <twiztid> chu: so that one would not have to reapply all the little tweaks and settings involved with a fresh install
[09:07] <vasez> How do I create a second user that can su to root?
[09:07] <niko-nojo> greppy - so anything with varchar(some number)
[09:07] <cmyk> oh, it's under office. never mind.
[09:07] <Jigal> llutz, tnx
[09:08] <greppy> niko-nojo: perl -p -i -e 's{varchar\([0-9]+\)}{bar}g' niko.txt
[09:08] <\DSAFEW\> can I get wubi to install from a from a windows with messed up internets?
[09:08] <llutz_> vasez: create an user and add him to admin-group then
[09:08] <greppy> niko-nojo: just replace bar with whatever you want it to be, and niko.txt with the filename :)
[09:08] <sacarlson> vasez: see System>Administration>user groups
[09:08] <glebihan> Moopz: if you're only looking for the themes, you should download the themes tarball : http://grub.gibibit.com/files/grub-themes-src-2008-08-15.tgz
[09:08] <glebihan> Moopz: It contains an installation script
[09:09] <Gnea> \DSAFEW\: internets?
[09:09] <\DSAFEW\> Gnea, yeah, its internets are messed
[09:09] <\DSAFEW\> Gnea, like the TCP/IPs and stuff
[09:09] <chrisg> oh noes
[09:09] <chrisg> teh intarnets!
[09:09] <vasez> Thank you
[09:09] <Gnea> \DSAFEW\: is it possible for you to explain like an intelligent human being?
[09:09] <rww> \DSAFEW\: Download the correct .iso file, copy it to the computer in the same directory as the wubi installer .exe, run Wubi.
[09:09] <Moopz> glebihan, but when I run the script, nothing really happens?
[09:09] <\DSAFEW\> Gnea, I really don't think I can be more clear.
[09:10] <Gnea> \DSAFEW\: then I'm sorry, I cannot help you.
[09:10] <\DSAFEW\> rww, thanks, that works like a charm :D
[09:10] <chu> twiztid: Most (possibly all?) of the settings are saved to your home directory (usually named ".<application_name>" - the . signifies a hidden file by the way). So if you backup your home drive, all the settings will come with that.
[09:10] <niko-nojo> thx greppy - am I correct in thinking this should be possible with sed though. I'm off to practice it :)
[09:11] <Moopz> glebihan, I actually think they are installed now, but then I don't know how to chose which one it uses?
[09:11] <greppy> niko-nojo: I want to say "yes" but my perl-fu is greater than my sed-fu :)
[09:11] <\DSAFEW\> rww, to save me some time, is there a specific checksum file I need to change in order to make my iso work?
[09:11] <\DSAFEW\> rww, otherwise, I can download a new one
[09:11] <niko-nojo> greppy - thx for your help
[09:11] <glebihan> Moopz: do you have a themes folder in /boot/grub ?
[09:11] <greppy> niko-nojo: you're welcome :)
[09:11] <Moopz> Yes
[09:11] <rww> \DSAFEW\: I'm not sure what you're asking...
[09:12] <chu> twiztid: Now, as far as saving a list of packages with Synaptic goes, I don't think it could be easier: In Synaptic, click "File -> Read Markings" that should save a list of currently installed packages. Name the file whatever you want, but make sure it's saved!
[09:12] <\DSAFEW\> rww, you said the "correct" iso, so I am assuming it does a checksum to check integrity
[09:12] <\DSAFEW\> rww, so can I tweak it to use my already downloaded version?
[09:12] <glebihan> Moopz: and it contains the themes winter, proto... ?
[09:13] <Moopz> glebihan, yes.
[09:13] <Gnea> \DSAFEW\: just install it on a usb drive
[09:13] <rww> \DSAFEW\: I meant if you're going to tell it to install Ubuntu, get the ubuntu-desktop ISO. Kubuntu kubuntu-desktop, etc.
[09:13] <\DSAFEW\> rww, alright
[09:13] <Moopz> glebihan, So it is installed, I know. But how to I select which one it should use?
[09:13] <\DSAFEW\> Gnea, the computer I'm working with doesn't have the ability to boot via USB or CD
[09:13] <\DSAFEW\> Gnea, and the internets are borked
[09:14] <chu> twiztid: Wait, sorry I got the name mixed up... Use "File -> Save Markings" to export a list of currently installed packages, use "File -> Read Markings" to import the list and install the packages.
[09:14] <\DSAFEW\> I'll be able to copy the installation files there and execute them though
[09:14] <Gnea> \DSAFEW\: what can it boot from, other than the hdd?
[09:14] <rww> \DSAFEW\: Oh, it gets prissy if you try to use a 32-bit ISO on a 64-bit capable computer. If that happens, start wubi with the "--32bit" option

[09:17] <glebihan> Moopz: I'm not completely sure, you'd have to edit /etc/grub.d/40_custom, but I prefer not to get further into this as I've never done that and I don't want to mess your grub installation

[09:19] <abul> ya
[09:19] <Gogi> my fingerprint sensor is not working on ubuntu.can anyone help me?
[09:19] <chu> twiztid: Yeah, I would recommend a separate /home partition. Not sure what the create-startup-disk does sorry. I'm a bit of a terminal junkie so have some BASH scripts written which export the packages installed, and then import the packages to install when I do a re-install of the OS. I've read that it's possible to do this with Synaptic though (I can link you to the thread if you'd like to read it though).
[09:20] <ectospasm> Gogi: does it show in lsusb?
[09:20] <sacarlson> abul: see my private message
[09:20] <CameronH> hmm seing as im here i actually have a legit question

[09:21] <chu> twiztid: No worries. Hope it works out for you :) Have a good evening.
[09:22] <ectospasm> Gogi: open a terminal:  Applications/Accessories/Terminal.  Then run the command:  lsusb
[09:22] <CameronH> uh like 40-50gb
[09:22] <ectospasm> Gogi: this assumes your fingerprint reader is USB
[09:23] <evilmercenary> CameronH, and how big do you want your ubuntu part to be? 30GB (normally plenty if you're just trying ubuntu properly. mine is 100GB, but i've only ever used 40GB over two years with it dualbooting with win7)
[09:23] <greppy> CameronH: I have used GNU Parted http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php to resize a vista partition

[09:31] <blakkheim> syrius: why mp4?
[09:31] <chenlong> mgmuscari:get a better source server.
[09:32] <mgmuscari> chenlong: kind of vague advice. i just figured out that update-manager -d will do it
[09:32] <mgmuscari> thanks anyway, though
[09:32] <syrius> yes greppy
[09:32] <syrius> because youtube doesn't allow mp3 upload blakkheim
[09:33] <syrius> I am using winff when I do the conversion
[09:33] <blakkheim> syrius: youtube is for video, you could embed mp3 audio in a blank video or a picture
[09:33] <zise> hello
[09:33] <syrius> yes I know that blakkheim
[09:33] <vasez> Ok so now I'm rather confused.  I successfully changed the username and user group, moved the home directory.  But when I do cd ~ it still looks for /home/oldusername  what am I missing?
[09:34] <syrius> blakkheim, youtube will accept ACC file which is mp4 audio
[09:34] <syrius> do you not understand?
[09:34] <syrius> that is what I am trying to do
[09:34] <konbon> thanks for the help fallas
[09:34] <konbon> im just going to format this POS windows install
[09:34] <blakkheim> syrius: i think it's you who might not understand. mp4 is a container that can use the AAC audio codec
[09:34] <konbon> it just wont clean anything, so many errors
[09:34] <syrius> ic
[09:34] <syrius> I know it is a container
[09:34] <evilmercenary> CameronH, you'll best off downloading and burning the latest version of the ubuntu disk....
[09:35] <syrius> but youtube accepts aac audio blakkheim
[09:35] <CameronH> evilmercenary k im doing that now
[09:35] <oCean> vasez: try echo $HOME, probably still pointing to old homedir
[09:35] <twiztid> chu: CHU!!! I found the perfect solution!!! http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/remastersys.html   *ReMasterSYS* clones and creates custom Ubuntu installation distros!!! No more setting up ubuntu for me! lo
[09:36] <vasez> oCean: it is, how do I change where it points to?
[09:36] <syrius> blakkheim, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Audio_Coding
[09:36] <greppy> syrius: you may want to check the winff forums or docs
[09:36] <oCean> vasez: you changed the homedir for the user? That is, the one configured in /etc/passwd?
[09:36] <llutz_> vasez: read "man usermod"
[09:37] <vasez> oCean: oCean no, llutz_ I'll go back and read some more...I thought all I needed was a usermod -l newusername oldusername
[09:37] <oCean> vasez: after that, logging in again, should've set $HOME (and ~) to correct path. When using usermod, use -d to specify homedirectory
[09:38] <evilmercenary> CameronH, great :) about partitioning: the ubuntu installer is set up to be as easy as possible. to partition in the installer, when prompted select "i want to install ubuntu alongside windows" and it will open a slider up on the menu. from there you just graphically slide along to how big you want the partition to be (i'd suggest about 10-30GB for you) and how big your windows partition will be too. then press "finish partitioning"
[09:38] <evilmercenary> and it will do it all, automated :)
[09:38] <evilmercenary> CameronH, that's how easy it will be. nothing to worry about :)
[09:38] <CameronH> Sweet
[09:40] <vasez> Thanks again everyone
[09:40] <adamx_> gotta nothing to roll with, nothing to smoke with
[09:40] <adamx_> can anyone help me rectify this situation?
[09:40] <Variability> no
[09:40] <james333james>  I just installed Wine 1.2 but the installer didn't create the folder in the menu
[09:40] <greppy> adamx_: I think you are in the wrong channel.
[09:40] <james333james>  I just installed Wine 1.2 but the installer didn't create the folder in the menu
[09:41] <kneaux> my screen isn't blanking with xscreensaver, does anybody else have this problem?
[09:41] <kneaux> (gnome-screensaver is uninstalled)
[09:41] <adamx_> greppy, I'll share
[09:42] <greppy> adamx_: nah, just leave :)
[09:42] <tgywa> Hi
[09:43] <tgywa> How can I do safe_mode login on Ubuntu ... am using 10.04??

[09:43] <ikonia> tgywa: what is the error
[09:44] <zkiss> is there someone speaking in chinese ? O~~~
[09:45] <techbreak> I downloaded thunderbird.tar.gz but dont know to install it... anybody help?
[09:45] <llutz_> !cn > zkiss
[09:45] <xliv3> hay guy is it possiblle to application to right click ?
[09:45] <tgywa> ikonia, init:ureadahead-other main process .... terminated status 4
[09:46] <hateball> techbreak: just use your packagemanager instead
[09:46] <hateball> !apt | techbreak
[09:46] <chenlong> zkiss:me
[09:46] <hateball> techbreak: That is... open the Software Center, search for Thunderbird, tick the box, and you're done!
[09:47] <ikonia> tgywa: has this ever woked or just started failing ?
[09:47] <techbreak> hateball, well I have already downloaded the package which is in format .tar.gz. its not deb format
[09:47] <tgywa> ikonia, was working for a couple of days ...
[09:47] <xliv3> hello ?
[09:47] <hateball> techbreak: Using the package manager it downloads and installs itself... why would you want to install it manually?
[09:47] <xliv3> hay guy is it possiblle to application to right click ?
[09:48] <ikonia> tgywa: what happened to make it break ?
[09:48] <xliv3> hay guy is it possiblle to add application to right click ?
[09:48] <techbreak> hateball, coz i haved downloaded the .tar.gz file
[09:48] <ikonia> tgywa: readahead shouldn't stop it booting
[09:48] <blakkheim> xliv3: check out openbox or fluxbox or compiz deskmenu
[09:48] <xliv3> http://linux.softpedia.com/screenshots/WeakNet-Linux_5.png
[09:48] <xliv3> like that
[09:49] <blakkheim> looks like fluxbox to me
[09:49] <xliv3> hmm ok wait lemme see
[09:50] <tgywa> ikonia, I don't know what breaks it ... but ... added new SCSI disk ... and am using marvik backported kernel 2.6.35 ...
[09:50] <glebihan> xliv3: you may also look for nautilus extensions, there may be one to handle this
[09:50] <ikonia> tgywa: why are you using unstable software ?
[09:50] <xliv3>     sudo apt-get install fluxbox
[09:50] <xliv3> well I did try nautilus
[09:50] <xliv3> didnt work
[09:50] <ikonia> tgywa: you're using unsupported software so I'm afraid I can't progress it
[09:51] <tgywa> ikonia, what is not stable ... the backported kernel.
[09:51] <tgywa> ikonia, what is not stable ... the backported kernel.?
[09:51] <cosmodad> where does Ubuntu store credentials (username, password) for connections to a Windows share set up via the GUI?
[09:51] <chenlong> tgywa:try "Ctrl+Shift+F1~F6"
[09:52] <ikonia> tgywa: backported from an unstable OS - = not supported
[09:54] <chenlong> cosmodad:"system"->"system manager"->"user and group"
[09:55] <cosmodad> chenlong: you mean System -> Adminitration -> User and Group? (I'm using 10.04)
[09:55] <chenlong> cosmodad:maybe.
[09:56] <cosmodad> chenlong: I suppose we mean the same thing. Thanks!
[09:56] <chenlong> cosmodda:I use Chinese type.
[09:56] <kibibyte> hi
[09:56] <chenlong> so,I guess it.

[10:14] <[IRAQI]> When install ubntu10.4 will get ISA SERVER  in last to connection how fix this ?
[10:14] <rww> what.
[10:15] <Tricks> I have ubuntu server and have installed a program by apt-get how do you find where the program executable has been installed? I have checked /usr/local /usr/sbin etc
[10:16] <rww> Tricks: dpkg -L packagenamehere
[10:16] <rww> or if you tell me the package, I can look it up..
[10:17] <ghisen> Hi, the last update messed up my ati drivers and xorg file... now i got everything back to normal except that my second display also has the top menu bar. The screen is not "extended".. its like i got 2 primary screens. Anyone know how i can change this so the desktop i extended?
[10:18] <chenlong> ghisen:I don't know what's you mean.
[10:19] <myschak>  /set bell_beeps ON
[10:19] <Tricks> rww, stunnel
[10:20] <Tricks> rww, thanks for that one, i'll write that one down
[10:20] <[IRAQI]> incorrect sorry: When update ubuntu 10.4 will connection to ISA SERVER  for com tech? so how fix this connection?
[10:20] <rww> Tricks: stunnel's a transition package to stunnel4, which includes /usr/bin/stunnel
[10:21] <Hory> all of a sudden, my system partition doesn't work anymore
[10:21] <syrius> blakkheim, greppy I figured out the problem it seems you need to use medibu to install the fuller ffmpeg
[10:21] <Hory> how can I repair it?
[10:21] <ziroday> Hory: your system partition?
[10:21] <Hory> yeah where ubuntu is installed
[10:21] <chenlong> Hory:Can you boot?
[10:21] <Hory> no
[10:22] <Hory> I booted up slax and it say "mount wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock"
[10:22] <Hory> when I try to access it
[10:22] <greppy> syrius: ah, good deal :)
[10:22] <Tricks> rww, ah all that command showed was path to docs btw
[10:22] <ghisen> chenlong, i got the gnome meny on both screens.. i can't drag a window from screen 0 to screen 1.. i only can transfer the mouse between the screens
[10:22] <Tricks> rww, thnks for your help :)
[10:22] <ziroday> Hory: run a fsck on the drive then, or make sure you're typing in the mount command correctly
[10:22] <rww> Tricks: right, because stunnel is just a transition package. dpkg -L stunnel4 should show it.
[10:22] <Hory> the other linux partitions work in slax
[10:23] <Tricks> rww, ah cool thanks mate
[10:23] <Hory> what's the entire command for fsck?
[10:23] <myschak> #ubuntu-cz
[10:23] <pianohacker> Help! I accidentally started sugar outside its Xephyr emulator, and now my left-click has been remapped to alt-move!
[10:24] <pianohacker> I feel exclamation points are justified
[10:24] <pianohacker> as I can't find any xmodmap or config settings that are changed
[10:24] <chenlong> ghisen:do you have "compizconfig"?
[10:25] <ghisen> chenlong, yes
[10:25] <chenlong> ghisen:set 3D
[10:26] <leonidus> i 2 need compizconfig
[10:26] <ghisen> chenlong, --xinerama=on could this be something?
[10:27] <ghisen> # --xinerama=on option enables you to have two different desktops and one of them being passive.
[10:27] <ghisen> # You can drag and drop windows from one desktop to the other. Task bars appear only on one of the desktops.
[10:27] <ghisen> Thats what i want
[10:27] <ghisen> But when i run, aticonfig --xinerama=on i get aticonfig: Writing to 'xorg.conf' failed. Bad file descriptor.
[10:27] <adamx_> blacked out today for 5 hours from booze and prescription pills... pretty fking scary
[10:28] <rww> adamx_: #ubuntu-offtopic for that.
[10:28] <rww> without the language, anyway.
[10:28] <rww> ... that's not what "without the language" means.
[10:29] <chenlong> gjisen:Is there any conflict?
[10:29] <leonidus> need a router firmware for beetel and a dmz ..... any sugestions?
[10:29] <[IRAQI]> rww:
[10:30] <[IRAQI]> ??
[10:30] <rww> ?
[10:30] <saju_m> i want to deny pinging to my system from some client. how do it?.
[10:30] <bazhang> leonidus, try ##networking or ##hardware , that has nothing to do with Ubuntu support
[10:31] <leonidus> thanks
[10:32] <chenlong> saju_m:set iptables in firewall.
[10:34] <leonidus> suggest me a package that can tell me the status of my ubuntu server remotely
[10:34] <greppy> leonidus: nagios
[10:34] <tijn> leonidus: munin
[10:34] <tijn> leonidus: zabbix ;)
[10:35] <leonidus> thanks

[10:35] <tijn> top /htop ;)
[10:36] <greppy> nagios :)

[10:37] <bazhang> rooks, wrong channel to paste
[10:38] <rooks> bazhang, good channel, since this project is based on ubuntu
[10:38] <bazhang> rooks, its not on topic, please dont.
[10:38] <rww> rooks: It's not an Ubuntu technical support question, so no.
[10:38] <rooks> bazhang, just wanted to say thx or support ans show what that support created
[10:38] <rooks> ah, i guess its wrong then
[10:38] <rooks> sorry
[10:38] <bazhang> rooks, say it in #ubuntu-offtopic then

[10:44] <tukadafoonday> Hey guys - can someone help me out... I don't want 1 particular program to lock out the sound. Ie. If Rhythmbox is playing and i start a youtube video in chrome I want the option to turn Rhythmbox off without having to start my web browser again to capture the sound.
[10:44] <tukadafoonday> is that possible?
[10:44] <ceil420> Guest5922: stay in school
[10:44] <bazhang> !ot | ceil420
[10:45] <ceil420> tukadafoonday: use alsa instead of oss. but i thought pulseaudio allowed sound mixing :o does ubuntu not use PA anymore?
[10:45] <ceil420> bazhang: so get him to ask an actual question ;x
[10:46] <tukadafoonday> ceil420: Thanks - where do i change it to alsa instead of oss?
[10:46] <obengdako> tukadafoonday: what is your sound setup like?
[10:46] <tukadafoonday> obengdako: Standard 10.04 install
[10:46] <cheeselom> * ##c :Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services
[10:47] <werdikt> Hi all. If somebody know how to output logs to desktop?
[10:47] <alongusername> rm -rf / fixed all my problem
[10:47] <ceil420> cheeselom: /msg nickserv help register
[10:47] <oCean> !register > cheeselom
[10:47] <glebihan> !register | cheeselom
[10:47] <oCean> !danger | alongusername
[10:48] <philinux> tukadafoonday: I got standard install and can listen to a flash video and nautilus previews sounds file simultaneously
[10:49] <katspaugh> werdikt: "conky" can output logs to the desktop, I believe.
[10:50] <werdikt> ths...i`ll check
[10:50] <tukadafoonday> hahaha - oh dear... sorry.... I should have checked before i asked the question sorry guys!
[10:50] <tukadafoonday> it works fine!
[10:50] <ceil420> lol
[10:51] <russbos> hello, I have recently been using Ubuntu in dual boot with windows, currently it wont allow me to boot into ubuntu, when i select ubuntu the pc just cycles back to a reboot giving me the windows/ubuntu option, previously this fault was resolved with a windows scandisk, however now
[10:51] <russbos> I cant fix it
[10:51] <russbos> anyine got any ideas?
[10:51] <philinux> tukadafoonday: No worries enjoy. although I can only process so much info at once.
[10:51] <obengdako> tukadafoonday: be careful next time, well if you still want to tinker around , run this command gstreamer-properties and see your sound setup
[10:52] <philinux> russbos: is this a wubi install?
[10:52] <russbos> i think so
[10:53] <russbos> i have 2 machines 1 dual booting xp 1 dual booting vista :-s both have same problem
[10:53] <philinux> russbos: no idea then soz.
[10:53] <ceil420> russbos: have you ever been able to boot into ubuntu? :o
[10:54] <philinux> russbos: when wubi/ubuntu used old grub it was ok. but grub2 seems to play havoc.
[10:54] <russbos> yeah its been working fine, not sure if I did an update in ubuntu, im thinking thats the most likeley as both failed at same time
[10:54] <philinux> russbos: a grub update can kill of ubuntu or windows boot
[10:54] <russbos> did grub2 come out recently then?
[10:54] <obengdako> i honestly hate wubi installs
[10:55] <chenlong> russbos:restall ubuntu
[10:55] <leonidus> hve installled lamp and need a package who will monitor
[10:55] <philinux> russbos: grub 2 was the default in karmic
[10:55] <Guest157> hey guys can I get a quick bit of advice?
[10:55] <russbos> am currently trying a cd boot but its taking ages
[10:55] <chenlong> russbos:use 10.04
[10:55] <rww> The latest GRUB2 update breaks Wubi. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/581760
[10:55] <russbos> im pretey sure its 10.04
[10:55] <philinux> russbos: wubi is ok just to try out ubuntu but a dual boot is much more stable
[10:56] <chenlong> Guest157:What?
[10:56] <rww> according to reddit, anyway.
[10:56] <Guest157> should I upgrade now to 10.04, 10.10 beta or wait a few days?
[10:56] <bhaveshvala> e1000e: eth0 NIC Link is Down problem
[10:56] <rww> Guest157: don't upgrade to 10.10 yet, it's not released for a reason.
[10:57] <chenlong> Guest157:10.04 is LTS,has more support and more stable.
[10:57] <mawst> Dual boot WHAT?
[10:57] <mawst> heh
[10:57] <Guest157> ok so I will wait for the release of 10.10 officially?
[10:57] <rww> Guest157: good idea
[10:58] <russbos> something i noticed which may prove its grub fault is that you only get the drive screen not the screen showing current and previous versions installed, how do i roll back grub?
[10:58] <mawst> Yeah just wait for final.
[10:58] <chenlong> russbot:install in hard disk maybe works better.
[10:58] <mawst> I ran mav for awhile. It's not that it's unstable, but some of my ppas haven't been updated yet.
[10:58] <Guest157> ok cheers, just didnt want to waste the d/l
[10:58] <mawst> Nothing wrong with waiting a bit.
[10:58] <obengdako> russbot: a live cd may be handy now
[10:59] <leonidus> hve installled lamp and need a package who will monitor
[10:59] <obengdako> russbos: a live cd might be handy now
[10:59] <russbos> chenlong: what do you mean, it is installed on hard disk, dual booting with windows, i am using cd to try recovery?!
[11:00] <obengdako> russbos: what chenlong means is wubi does not actually install ubuntu to the hard drive but install into your ntfs partition and is mounted virtually from there, so it is not actually installed to hard drive but in "windows"
[11:00] <chenlong> russbos:install another ubuntu by wubi may repair grub.I have done it.
[11:01] <jink> Hello there.  I'm trying to get my vmware 1.0.10 server (winxp x64) to boot linux-image-2.6.31-22-server, but to no avail.  I turned off quiet and splash in grub2, but after the menu's gone, I get a blank screen that stays there forever (? too long, anyway).  The last kernel I tried and would boot is the 2.6.27-7-server.  That works fine, but I'd like to upgrade.
[11:01] <FedoraUser> hi everybody
[11:02] <FedoraUser> there is ubuntu pc on my network and I want to change samba settings, but my /etc/samba/smb.conf is empty
[11:02] <bobthemilkman> Why do you want to upgrade?
[11:02] <jink> bobthemilkman: I think I need a newer smbfs to fix a subversion issue.
[11:02] <FedoraUser> but samba works and have same shared folders which it had before ubuntu upgrade
[11:03] <jink> bobthemilkman: And it kinda pisses me off that I can't find out why it won't work. ;)
[11:03] <AbhiJit> hi
[11:03] <russbos> chenlong: thanks, I understand now, this has also caused me problems as i cant access files through windows or haiku - also installed - will a wubi reinstall not wipe my files?
[11:04] <obengdako> russbos: wait
[11:04] <bobthemilkman> jink: In my professional opinion, if a version doesn't work, don't use that version.  The smbfs issue should be handled in userspace (fuse), not in the kernel, so I'm not sure that upgrading is necessary.
[11:04] <bobthemilkman> Although, a certain kernel not booting is quite a dire problem, however the solution to said problem is probably beyond the scope of a simple conversation.
[11:04] <obengdako> russbos: if you have important files in your installation don't wipe it out
[11:05] <jink> bobthemilkman: Ok.  I tried 2.6.31-14-server too and that wouldn't boot either. :(
[11:05] <obengdako> russbos: you can use a live cd to mount the old installation and copy files, configurations ,etc before you do another install
[11:06] <chenlong> russbos:install ubuntu on dard disk in diferrent boot order or diffrent pations.
[11:06] <jink> bobthemilkman: It's a cifs mount in my fstab, and this made me consider the upgrade: http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2009-01/0549.shtml
[11:06] <russbos> obengdako: thanks, should it take ages to boot live cd? maybe i need a new burn
[11:07] <obengdako> russbos: nope it doesn't take ages at least give it 2mins
[11:07] <philinux> russbos: boots faster of usb stick if your bios supports that
[11:07] <russbos> chenlong: thanks, I'll recover files and partition a space for ubuntu, should be more reliable then
[11:07] <jink> bobthemilkman: Another post suggested that it could be mptspi related (on vmware), so I put that in my /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and regenerated the initrds, but that doesn't seem to work either.
[11:07] <dli> recommend a mplayer frontend?
[11:08] <obengdako> russbos: then mount your wubi install from "/media/your hard drive/ubuntu/......
[11:08] <Syria> I lost the close, minimize, maximize buttons after installing compiz and restarting !!!
[11:08] <ceil420> dli: none
[11:08] <obengdako> russbos then do your copying
[11:08] <jink> bobthemilkman: Then again, I do admit that I haven't a clue where to start debugging this, so I'm just trying out stuff that seems to make sense to me. :/
[11:08] <russbos> philinux: its been 10 minutes already, ill try ubs, not sure if mobo supports
[11:08] <ceil420> dli: i just run it from the command line, for playing both movies and music :)
[11:08] <russbos> thannks everyone, im off
[11:09] <obengdako> Syria: explain explain further
[11:09] <bobthemilkman> Oh
[11:10] <bobthemilkman> I think I may have just happenstance found a possible solution...
[11:10] <bobthemilkman> You said you're running Ubuntu inside of a virtual machine, correct?
[11:10] <Syria> obengdako: when you open any folder or application, you can't see the control buttons, Close, maximize, minimize.
[11:10] <jink> bobthemilkman: Correct.
[11:10] <jink> bobthemilkman: (On a side note I should tell you that it runs fine on another machine (same windows, same vmware, afaict))
[11:10] <chenlong> russbos:you can store files on windows partitions or made /home stand alone,it's more reliable.
[11:10] <eberry> hu\
[11:11] <ortsvorsteher> i ran a laptop msi with intel hda soundcard. externel speakers are working, also headphones. but the internal speakers will not work. i installed alsa driver by Alsa-Upgrade-Script. but still no solution... any idey how to fix that?
[11:11] <jink> chenlong: russbos left. :/
[11:11] <bobthemilkman> Now, I'm currently running 10.10 (which is set to be released in a few weeks), and I was looking through my available kernel images in aptititude, and I saw the following list of 2.6.31-14 to 2.6.35-22, but 2.6.35-22 is special in that it has an additional "-virtual" extension, in addition to generic and server.
[11:11] <chenlong> sorry
[11:11] <eberry> yeppi
[11:12] <jink> bobthemilkman: Ah! :)  But that's .35, which I don't yet have, here. :/
[11:12] <bobthemilkman> If, and this is a big if, if the problem is kernel related, I'd suggest going about obtaining linux-headers-2.6.35-22-virtual from the maverick repositories, and trying to boot htat.
[11:12] <bobthemilkman> You can't download it? :)
[11:12] <jink> bobthemilkman: I suppose I could. ^__^
[11:12] <jink> Although I haven't a clue what the maverick repos are. :>
[11:13] <bobthemilkman> maverick, the version after lucid.
[11:13] <jink> bobthemilkman: And I'm assuming s/headers/image/ ?
[11:13] <bobthemilkman> headers and image.
[11:13] <jink> Check.
[11:13] <bobthemilkman> Or maybe just image... I'm not sure... I really do all my kernel work in gentoo, not ubuntu, so I'm not sure.
[11:14] <eberry> libwebkit new version is not working fine in karmic
[11:15] <eberry> does any one know about it
[11:15] <jink> bobthemilkman: Can I do that with a do-release-upgrade, or should I hack my sources.list myself?
[11:15] <bobthemilkman> I'm gonna try to find the .deb's for you, and then you can just dpkg -i them.
[11:15] <sKuarecircle> fdgfg
[11:15] <jink> bobthemilkman: Thanks.
[11:15] <sKuarecircle> Hey Huys
[11:15] <bobthemilkman> That's the ubuntu way of installing a custom kernel, if I remember correctly.
[11:15] <sKuarecircle> Can anyone help me reset my password?
[11:15] <jink> bobthemilkman: Heh. :>
[11:15] <dPix> hi all, does anyone know any way of using a computer with bluetooth and ubuntu to work as a handsfree with the phone?
[11:16] <rww> !password | sKuarecircle
[11:16] <sKuarecircle> ah no
[11:16] <sKuarecircle> sorry
[11:16] <sKuarecircle> I meant my irc password
[11:16] <sKuarecircle> or rather
[11:16] <ortsvorsteher> ubuntu 10.04 64bit. i ran a laptop msi with intel hda soundcard. externel speakers are working, also headphones. but the internal speakers will not work. i installed alsa driver by Alsa-Upgrade-Script. but still no solution... any idea how to fix that?
[11:16] <rww> sKuarecircle: ask in #freenode
[11:16] <sKuarecircle> I want to put one on so that no one can use my username
[11:16]  * rww sighs
[11:16] <jink> bobthemilkman: In the meantime I found out that I'm running whatever, here, and I'm now upgrading to lucid (which includes a 2.6.31-25).  Would that make sense? :)
[11:16] <rww> !register | sKuarecircle
[11:17] <shariq> anybody familiar with YUI Tree view component ?!?!?!
[11:17] <AbhiJit> sKuarecircle, after registering enable nick protection
[11:17] <sKuarecircle> kewl
[11:17] <sKuarecircle> will try that , I have no idea what I am doing!
[11:17] <AbhiJit> me too
[11:18]  * jink doesn't have any idea what sKuarecircle is doing, either. :P
[11:18] <bobthemilkman> Judging by my available linux kernels in maverick, and this isn't exactly expert testimony, it appears as though there was a bug introduced into the kernel that made it unbootable in virtualization somewhere around 2.6.31-14, and evidently fixed with a patch in 2.6.35-22.
[11:19] <jink> bobthemilkman: Oh, wow... :/

[11:19] <dPix> hi all, does anyone know any way of using a computer with bluetooth and ubuntu to work as a handsfree with the phone?
[11:19] <ortsvorsteher> ubuntu 10.04 64bit. i ran a laptop msi with intel hda soundcard. externel speakers are working, also headphones. but the internal speakers will not work. i installed alsa driver by Alsa-Upgrade-Script. but still no solution... any idea how to fix that?
[11:19] <mac-> hi
[11:20] <jink> bobthemilkman: So the only way to fix this is get maverick, I guess.  Still makes me wonder why the other machine works, though.... :/
[11:20] <mac-> I have IBM X31 with 12" screen
[11:20] <tlir> is there a light-weight ubuntu based desktop OS which I can run from the USB stick? (as a hard drive, not as a live cd)
[11:20] <mac-> which ubuntu version I should install on it ?
[11:20] <mac-> Desktop or Netbook ?
[11:20] <bobthemilkman> Eh, you can install the maverick kernel in lucid, or even in anything :)
[11:20] <bobthemilkman> Linux is useful like that, sometimes :)
[11:20] <rww> mac-: whichever you want
[11:20] <jink> bobthemilkman: Ah, right you are. ^__^
[11:20] <bobthemilkman> http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/linux-image-2.6.35-22-virtual
[11:20] <Ichat> tlir:  -   any ubutnu version wil do
[11:21] <elyob> Have tried increasing the timeout of sudo command ... using sudo visudo I added the timeout to Defaults        env_reset,passwd_timeout=300 ... nothing happening ... have restarted complete server ... anything else I can do to force this?
[11:21] <bobthemilkman> I believe you should be able to install that via dpkg -i, which should allow you to use the 2.6.35 kernel with the -22-virtual patch.
[11:21] <elyob> (Ubuntu server)
[11:21] <dPix> anyone know how to make the computer work as a handsfree for the phone?
[11:21] <bobthemilkman> Now, I can't say that will fix your problem, or even that it will boot, or even guarantee that your system will boot after you try to install it.
[11:21] <AndyB> I have open SSH running on 10.04, its working all fine but I cant access from outside of the local network. I have the ports forwarded via my router and I know its working because I have other ports forwarded to other computers that work. I have added the rule to iptables (which is now disabled) but yet I still cant connect from the outside. Can anyone offer any advice please?
[11:21] <sKuarecircle> soz. not me man
[11:21] <Ichat> tlir:  - xubuntu    lubuntu   can  do both  with the usb installer
[11:21] <bobthemilkman> However, since you said that it's a virtual machine, I'd go ahead and make a copy of your system, and then try to install that via dpkg in one copy, and see if it works.
[11:21] <jink> bobthemilkman: Well, it doesn't boot now, either. :P
[11:22] <jink> bobthemilkman: And as long as grub still works, I should be fine, I guess.
[11:22] <tlir> Ichat: not really, I tried ubuntu 8.10 (I know it's old but it's the discs I had here) and I installed it directly to the USB stick and it ran *REALLY* slow, I can't even operate the computer
[11:22] <sKuarecircle> dammit..using empathy to view this chat..not very useful, it moves to quick, can someone recommend an irc client for me?
[11:22] <bobthemilkman> I think so.
[11:22] <NTQ> can anybody help me with problems of slow graphics in a java application. my hardware is a thinkpad R61 with nVidia Quadro 140M and proprietary drivers from nvidia?
[11:22] <bobthemilkman> The linux image doesn't touch the MBR, so really you should always be able to select the old version in GRUB. :)
[11:22] <amol_> Need help in fixing the integrated Webcam. All help will be greatly appreciated
[11:23] <bobthemilkman> Linux does have some interesting good points :)
[11:23] <jink> bobthemilkman: That's what I'd expect. ;)
[11:23] <FedoraUser> a little help with ubuntu and samba? or should I get my coat? :)
[11:23] <Ichat> tlir:  -  use a  new  xubuntu 10.4 or  lubuntu 10.4      (desktop .iso)   and boot the live install
[11:23] <jink> bobthemilkman: I'll give it a go in a minute. :)
[11:23] <jink> Thanks so far. ^__^
[11:23] <obengdako> sKuarecircle: it is moving fast because of the frequency at which comments are being posted
[11:23] <Ichat> tlir:  - it will offer you a tool to make a usb install
[11:23] <obengdako> sKuarecircle: you can use xchat
[11:23] <bobthemilkman> However, like I said, I can't guarantee that that will work, much less fix your problem, but that would be my best guess and trying to get a booting ubuntu inside of virtualization.
[11:24] <Ichat> !usbinstall
[11:24] <bobthemilkman> Also, you said you're currently upgrading to lucid?
[11:24] <bobthemilkman> That's not really necessary, but you can if you want :P
[11:24] <sKuarecircle> Yeah I know that! but it keeps jumping yo teh bottom whenever i try and scroll up to find teh answers i want...coll thanks will try xchat
[11:24] <amol_> Integrated Webcam not working. Need help

[11:26] <amol_> sKuarecircle, I use a Toshiba Satellite L300 laptop
[11:26] <gaohongyan> glebihan hello!!!
[11:26] <glebihan> hi gaohongyan
[11:26] <gaohongyan> how are you ??and you java program??
[11:26] <jrib> elyob: there's no password timeout by default, so that wouldn't increase it
[11:26] <amol_> sKuarecircle, The webcam works with Windows though
[11:26] <glebihan> gaohongyan: java program ?
[11:27] <sKuarecircle> do you have skype installed? What exactly is wrong?
[11:27] <gaohongyan> java software developer!
[11:27] <gaohongyan> and you ?
[11:27] <elyob> jrib: every time I come back whilst burning cd's using abcde, it re-asks for sudo password ...
[11:27] <sKuarecircle> Mine doesn;t work anywhere else but in Skype, though to be dead honest I havent made any attempt to fic that
[11:27] <amol_> sKuarecircle, The person at the other end sees a white screen, and when I use Cheese, it gives me a green screen
[11:27] <jrib> elyob: maybe you want timestamp_timeout?  Read « man sudoers »
[11:27] <elyob> jrib: unless within 10 mins or so
[11:28] <bobthemilkman> jink: Also, for a more permanent solution, have you ever considered just overhauling your entire system from SVN to git? :3
[11:28] <glebihan> gaohongyan: that's offtopic, this is the place for ubuntu support, for other topics, please join #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:28] <jrib> elyob: at least that's how I read the man page, maybe I'm wrong
[11:29] <gaohongyan> yes ,,i know!!  i use ubuntu version is china make ! named "YLMF"!!! you know??? glebihan!
[11:29] <elyob> jrib: yes ... that makes sense .. passwd_timeout looks like it is "waiting for a password to be entered" ... will try that .. thanks

[11:41] <Mix|Work> thank you!
[11:41] <Mix|Work> for a production environment which version do you recommend
[11:41] <Mix|Work> 10.04?

[11:41] <Mix|Work> thank you
[11:41] <zamba> what makes the most sense.. create a raid of several physical disks and then run lvm on top of that, or doing it the other way?
[11:42] <zamba> creating a lvm of several physical disks and then raid on top of that again?
[11:43] <Ichat> Mix|Work:  -  for a production use id say allways use     LTS .1+   (ubuntu  8.04.1   or  til  8.04.99  .... or   10.04.1  (or above)
[11:43] <Mix|Work> Ichat: thank you, noted
[11:44] <Ichat> Mix|Work:  - in the current situation look at the latets release of   10.04
[11:44] <chenlong> zamba:I think lvm more berrter.
[11:44] <zamba> chenlong: huh?
[11:44] <zamba> chenlong: you didn't really understand the question, did you?
[11:44] <zamba> chenlong: lvm first and then raid on top of that, or raid first and then lvm on top of that
[11:45] <chenlong> lvm first
[11:45] <Ichat> >	creating a lvm of several physical disks and then raid on top of that again? <<<< allways   use the lowest layer first
[11:45] <Ichat> chenlong ????  wtf???  -
[11:45] <jink> bobthemilkman: Yes, I realize that upgrading to lucid isn't required for your steps to work.  I'm gonna do it anyway. :P  And changing from svn to git is really not something I can make happen on a short term.  The entire company relies on svn. :o
[11:47] <bobthemilkman> jink: It might be worthwhile to just wait 2 weeks and then upgrade directly to maverick, but that's my opinion.  lucid is the LTS, after all.
[11:47] <rabbit_kan> Virtualbox,KVM,and vmware,which one is better?
[11:47] <rabbit_kan> on ubuntu.
[11:47] <amol_> Integrated Webcam not working. Please help!
[11:47] <mawst> *shrug*
[11:47] <Ichat> chenlong:  -  no?   why???  -    specially running   raid 3  raid 5  raid 6 -   do you really think that   your better off   trying to expand   1 or more of its nodes?
[11:47] <mawst> rabbit_kan, what are you trying to run?
[11:48] <jink> bobthemilkman: I could consider that.  But then again, I don't think it'll hurt to upgrade in smaller steps. :)
[11:48] <rabbit_kan> mawst:just some normal windows applications,maybe some full-screen games.
[11:48] <mawst> I hear good things about vbox
[11:48] <mawst> I'm not sure about gaming though.
[11:49] <mawst> I would try wine first as far as games go.
[11:49] <Khas> Hello.  I'm trying to configure suPHP according to http://www.suphp.org/Documentation.html, but the php script still claims there are insufficient permissions to do what it needs to do, even though the folders are set to 755.  Can anyone think of anything other than apache2.conf, suphp.conf and permissions that need altered to use suPHP?
[11:50] <chenlong> Ichat:lvm is better.
[11:50] <jrib> Khas: suphp seems to be in the repositories, are you using that?
[11:50] <SpinachHead> will .bashrc be update automatically if the ownership is not root?
[11:50] <rabbit_kan> how about vmware? is it support the full-screen game?i know vbox doesn't.
[11:50] <Khas> jrib I am.
[11:50] <Ichat> chenlong:  -    i thought you / he means    that   you either  run      kraid on top of lvm     / or  lvm on top of  kraid
[11:51] <jrib> Khas: you shouldn't need to touch any files at all then (at least that's my experience with other apache modules).  Just enable it with a2enmod
[11:51] <glebihan> rabbit_kan: vbox does
[11:52] <glebihan> rabbit_kan: although most games won't work nicely with vbox
[11:52] <ortsvorsteher> ubuntu 10.04 64bit. i ran a laptop msi with intel hda soundcard. externel speakers are working, also headphones. but the internal speakers will not work. i installed alsa driver by Alsa-Upgrade-Script. but still no solution... any idea how to fix that?
[11:52] <Khas> jrib: I thought that at first, too, but it didn't help.  Unless, of course, there's something the script is trying to do that it shouldn't be, but the path it gives for needing permissions is fine, although it is creating files.
[11:52] <SpinachHead> when installing java, ant, etc, doesn't .bashrc PATHS get updated automatically?
[11:52] <tukadafoonday1> hey guys... I have a mate trying to install ubuntu to his PC - the installer won't pick up his mouse and keyboard?
[11:52] <tukadafoonday1> its USB.
[11:53] <jrib> Khas: you mentioned altering apache2.conf and suphp.conf though?
[11:53] <ortsvorsteher> tukadafoonday1, did you try to plug keyboard and mouse to another usb port?
[11:54] <mplabs> Hello! I couldn't fix the problem that I had yesterday...
[11:54] <rabbit_kan> glebihan:it seems noone is using vmware .
[11:54] <Khas> jrib: I did, after the point at which it was evident it didn't work.  I'll reset those changes just now, just to check.
[11:54] <tukadafoonday1> ortsvorsteher: Nah he has not tried that - i will let him know to try it.
[11:54] <tukadafoonday1> Is it likely it hasn't loaded all his USB ports?
[11:54] <[IRAQI]_> rww: are you there?
[11:54] <jrib> Khas: in any case, if you're confident it's installed and enabled ok, ##php is probably a better place to get help as to why a particular script isn't working like you expect.  I have no experience with suphp at all
[11:54] <rww> [IRAQI]_: no, why?
[11:54] <ortsvorsteher> tukadafoonday1, i dont know, i hope so ;)

[11:56] <Khas> jrib: yeah, I'm just trying to work through the logical possibilities.  If there's no problem with apache and suphp, then it must be the script.  But given how bizarre apache seems to be on ubuntu, I'm not confident that's the case yet :-)

I have a static ip and for some reason dns resolution has a large delay and ping fails with 100% packet loss, otherwise everything seems functioning properly and am able to connect to sites and run apache.

[12:17] <Ichat> tlir -    xfce  with   lxdm   IS ...   if you dont want to mess arround with   costomise stuf   use  lxde   - but its less functionall than  xfce is
[12:18] <JDuke128> IGEPv2 or u can call it Beagleboard
[12:18] <ortsvorsteher> chenlong, it could be... i don't understand why the internal speakers not work, but when i plug in headphones or external speakers, it works...

[12:20] <chenlong> set it in "system" or just a plane too
[12:20] <ortsvorsteher> i ned "set it" ? chenlong
[12:21] <LjL> babu__: i think it may mean that you have a version of MPlayer not from the repositories
[12:21] <mawst> JDuke128, make sure you add iwconfig wlan0 power off to your rc.local, or it will reset when you reboot.
[12:21] <ortsvorsteher> ah, to set it... i try to find anything what i can set...
[12:21] <chenlong> "system"->"first chice(maybe)->"sound"
[12:21] <JDuke128> mawst , i do it on console myself now

[12:22] <chenlong> see above
[12:22] <CameronH> What do?
[12:22] <bazhang> Ichat, wrong.
[12:22] <mawst> JDuke128, I dunno. Might be something to do with ssh specifically.
[12:22] <bazhang> Ichat, dont respond if "google it" is your only input
[12:22] <amol_> Integrated Webcam not working. Please help!
[12:22] <JDuke128> mawst , i need to change kernel ? modifying kernel ?
[12:23] <bazhang> CameronH, try #ubuntu-offtopic as that nothing to do with Ubuntu support

[12:31] <BlaDe^> Hi guys, is it possible for wifi to drop due to temperature?
[12:31] <BlaDe^> since I upgraded to 10.04 (Happened in beta too so I went back to 9.10) my wifi drops  and keep sprompting for a passphrase, the ONLY way to get it back is to shutdown, and turn the laptop back on -- but it seems worse if I use it on the bed or whatever... if I leave it on the desk it's been known to go over night however I had no issues at all on 9.10
[12:31] <juk> Ichat: no, Im using irssi and I know is't extensible by scripts just you gave a good idea, to write script which queries google
[12:32] <andreiutz> Hi ! Why ubuntu 10.04 won't recognize my WD external hard drive ?
[12:32] <BlaDe^> if I dmesg | talk there's a lot of stuff like: [  353.730716] ath5k phy0: noise floor calibration failed (2422MHz) --- could this be causing the issue?
[12:32] <Ichat> juk - nice idea i should do same for   chatzilla i think...
[12:33] <Ichat>  BlaDe^  - i had stuc trouble also   -  are you using   broadcom ???\
[12:33] <BlaDe^> nope Ichat -- I have an acer laptop
[12:33] <ubuntu> Hm

[12:35] <amol_> chenlong, where can I find drivers?
[12:35] <bazhang> Ichat, /msg ubottu goodquestion
[12:35] <Ichat> BlaDe^:  - well i cant really tell you,  what i its then but -  my broadcom based,   had the same...  i solved it in my router   but increasing  the   band  from  20mhz to  50mhz
[12:35] <Thelz> Hello. On a network that otherwise consists of only Windows computers, I was running one computer with Ubuntu Server using the Samba File Server. Earlier today, I was suddenly unable to write files to the file server from one of the Windows computers. After a reboot of the Ubuntu computer, it suddenly won't connect to the internet anymore, and samba seems not to be running anymore. Anyone know what steps I could take?
[12:35] <BlaDe^> if that was the case wouldn't I of had issues on 9.10 as well as 10.04?
[12:36] <BlaDe^> I ran 9.10 for over 6 months flawlessly
[12:37] <chenlong> amol_:in the factory's official website,maybe.It's problem to all linuxer.
[12:37] <Ichat> BlaDe^:  i rand   8.04 on my laptop before  no errors  i rand   9.04  / 9.10   / 10.04   with errors ...
[12:37] <amol_> chenlong, tried that too. No luck
[12:37] <BlaDe^> i see
[12:37] <amol_> chenlong, Thanks for the time mate! :)
[12:38] <BlaDe^> is band related to signal strength Ichat  ?
[12:38] <BlaDe^> my laptop is relatively close to an access point which has 70% signal  atm
[12:38] <e1b26> hello how to bring ubuntu in active directory domain ?
[12:38] <andreiutz> Hi ! Ubuntu 10.04 won't recognize my WD external hard drive ? On windows xp the drive is working fine. What could be the problem ?
[12:39] <e1b26> through likewise ?
[12:39] <Ichat> BlaDe^:  -  try to find if your router supports  changing the band...   (bandwidth)...    if it does  i cant hurt to try.  -    no i think  signal   is     mesured in  Db  (desibel)   not in    bw  (mhz)
[12:39] <e1b26> anyone has Any IDea ?
[12:39] <AbhiJit> !dns | e1b26
[12:39] <BlaDe^> it doesn't seem to I'm logged into it right now
[12:40] <e1b26> abhjit what to do with DNS?
[12:40] <Ichat> BlaDe^:  -  out of this scope and not eniterly recommanded but what router do you use?
[12:40] <AbhiJit> e1b26, sorry wrong info
[12:40] <BlaDe^> i'm on sky broadband, they supply a router which you have to use due to them checking mac address
[12:40] <Ichat> do you know the brand?
[12:40] <Ichat> and model
[12:41] <e1b26> ill configured DNS it in server 2003 but still while joining error comes that
[12:41] <e1b26> Domain join operation failed to create the computer account in Active Directory. Common causes are a bad administrator password, a bad OU name, or an existing computer account without modification permissions.
[12:41] <BlaDe^> they supply Netgear DG834GT / DG934G   --- so one of those two
[12:41] <e1b26> anyone can help me?
[12:41] <BlaDe^> probably the first
[12:42] <under> Hi. I Installed Google Desktop but the keyboard shortcut doesnt work (CTRL+CTRL)
[12:42] <Ichat> BlaDe^:  -  this is WAY out of best practise you think -  but  running  openwrt or ddwrt on your router would give you sutch features ... and it would keep your mac so it should still be supported...  -  but than again,  i should not advice you to do this.
[12:43] <Thelz> If I'm running an Ubuntu Server with Samba File Server, and I reinstall Ubuntu and Samba from the CD, will the files that I stored on the file server remain available? (I understand that I'll have to reconfigure Samba, I just want to make sure the files remain)
[12:43] <BlaDe^> I'm not opposed to such things, for example both my iPhone's are jailbroken, etc. But i'd have to look into it more first
[12:43] <xinglight> :-D
[12:43] <andreiutz> Hi ! Ubuntu 10.04 won't recognize my WD external hard drive ? On windows xp the drive is working fine. What could be the problem ?
[12:43] <Ichat> blade   join  #openwrt  for more info  i would say
[12:44] <xinglight> andreiutz: when u install the ubuntu?
[12:44] <greppy> andreiutz: do you get an error?
[12:44] <Jigal> can anyone help me with this? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3819800/errors-when-testing-with-phpunit-3-5
[12:44] <glebihan> Thelz: as long as you don't format the partition containing the files, they will still be available
[12:44] <Thelz> Thanks, glebihan...
[12:45] <Ichat> blade  im wild guessing really  but i would give it a  40  or maybe  60% chance of  fixing your problem...   -    depending on how well the documentation is for you exact device
[12:45] <chenlong> Thelz:need reconfig.maybe you should make \etc stand alone.
[12:45] <andreiutz> greppy, no, just that nothing happens
[12:45] <greppy> in a terminal, do a "tail -f /var/log/messages" while you plug in the drive
[12:45] <andreiutz> xinglight, I have installed it about 3 weeks ago
[12:45] <Thelz> Should I just use the Install feature on the CD rom? Or use the repair feature and then reinstall over it?
[12:45] <greppy> make sure it sees that you plugged it in :)
[12:46] <Thelz> chenlong> reconfig doesn't worry me, as long as the files remain
[12:46] <greppy> Thelz: where are the files at?
[12:46] <greppy> Thelz: are they on a partition other than /?
[12:46] <Evo11> Hi guys. I'm in need of some help
[12:46] <Thelz> there's only one partition
[12:47] <greppy> Thelz: then your data will be gone.
[12:47] <glebihan> !ask | Evo11
[12:47] <Thelz> (and to be frank, I'm not a linux/ubuntu expert... there's one ubuntu file server in a network of otherwise windows computers)
[12:47] <xinglight> :-D i glad to help anybody. if i can,.....  howerver . most of time i do not know how to help....
[12:47] <chenlong> Thelz:you should make more partition.
[12:47] <cyberrider> andreiutz: do u speak romanian?
[12:48] <cyberrider> join #ubuntu-ro
[12:48] <Thelz> greppy> Hmm, ok, so I need to export the data first... but right now, neither my network nor samba seems to be working :
[12:48] <greppy> Thelz: have an external USB drive?
[12:48] <andreiutz> greppy, where can I paste you the output
[12:48] <Thelz> yeah, but I don't know if I have the drivers for that installed
[12:49] <glebihan> !paste | andreiutz
[12:49] <iceroot> how to see if a file is a link to another file or if it is a "real" file
[12:49] <airtonix> iceroot, simply use : ls -o
[12:49] <Evo11> I'm running the latest ubuntu server edition. I had map drives on my window machines. Up until yesterday the server was running fine. But now today my window machines can't seem to reconnect the map drives. I have done a update on my Ubuntu server but still l can't seem to get my window machines to reconnect the map drives
[12:49] <sacarlson> iceroot: ls -l
[12:49] <airtonix> iceroot, even just ls will show you if it is a symlink or not
[12:50] <Evo11> what do you think is the problem and how can l go about to sort this problem out?
[12:50] <iceroot> airtonix: i am interestet in hardlinks
[12:50] <quack> iceroot: avoid hardlinks if you can.
[12:50] <Cojage> hey
[12:50] <Cojage> what is the easiest mailserver?
[12:51] <Cojage> postfix?
[12:51] <iceroot> airtonix: so the file is 1 time on the hdd on 3 different locations
[12:51] <glebihan> iceroot: in the case of hard links, there's no *real* file
[12:51] <airtonix> iceroot, ok, for me in gnome-terminal i think symlinks are having red background, and hardlinks have a blue background
[12:51] <airtonix> iceroot, not ideal but there you go
[12:51] <greppy> iceroot: ls -l the file you are worried about, after the permissions will be a number, if it's higher than one, it's a directory or a hardlink.
[12:51] <andreiutz> greppy, it flaps on and of I think, please check the output that never stops :)
[12:51] <iceroot> greppy: the number is 2, to i guess its a hardlink
[12:51] <quack> icerrot: only when you remove the last hard link you will remove the file.
[12:52] <iceroot> quack: correct, that is a hardlink
[12:52] <glebihan> iceroot: this means that there are 2 links to that file
[12:52] <airtonix> iceroot, also, when i use ls -o or ls -l. ls displays results in column form (therefore showing the target item of the link)
[12:52] <iceroot> glebihan: is there also a way to see where the other file is?
[12:52] <iceroot> -rw-r--r-- 2 root                root              0  2. Sep 17:12 juhu
[12:52] <glebihan> iceroot: I don't think so, let me check
[12:52] <iceroot> this should be a hardlink and juhu is two times on the hdd
[12:53] <greppy> andreiutz: hrm, got a link from that pastebin?
[12:53] <iceroot> ok i createt another hardlink and the number is 3, so everything is fine
[12:53] <quack> iceroot: so you have to know in advance all references to an hardlink in order to free the space on disk.  Worse than checking if a symlink is dangling or not.
[12:53] <andreiutz> greppy, sorry http://paste.ubuntu.com/502593/
[12:53] <BiG-M> anybody knows about kthreadd and its spawns :(
[12:54] <iceroot> quack: i dont care about freeing the space, that is part of the kernel
[12:54] <iceroot> quack: or the filesystem, i dont know
[12:55] <BlaDe^> it dropped again, I have a dmesg if anyone would be kind enough to take a look... I'll pastie
[12:55] <awanti> I had lost my User name and root password.. is there any chance to create new one without losing any data
[12:55] <rww> !password | awanti
[12:55] <quack> icerrot: what I mean is that if you have a file and do not know all hardlinks pertaining to it, you will find a hell of a trouble unlinking it away to recall the disk space.
[12:56] <BlaDe^> The link is here: http://pastie.org/1188738
[12:56] <iceroot> quack: if i am correct, unlink foobar is killing foobar and all hardlinks of it
[12:56] <quack> With symlinks you can always dereference the symlink, erase the file and the symlink and check for other symlinks.
[12:57] <andreiutz> greppy, sorry http://paste.ubuntu.com/502593/
[12:57] <iceroot> quack: but i need hardlinks because i wrote a backup-script using rsync with hardlinks and deleting old backups automaticly
[12:57] <quack> icerrot: unlink foobar only detetes foobar IF you are deleting the LAST symlink.  If not, the file persists.
[12:57] <iceroot> quack: so for every new backup i only have to copy new files, else rsync is setting a hardlink
[12:57] <iceroot> quack: and have a look at "tab" to complete my nick correctly
[12:58] <iceroot> quack: but that is fine that foobar will only get complety deleted if there is no foobar anymore
[12:58] <quack> Call from EXTERNAL-PROGRAM with "ln file newhardlink".
[12:59] <Thelz> greppy: Happen to know where I can read more about replaceable drives and moving files for the ubuntu shell?
[12:59] <quack> iceroot: does your program know ALL hardlinks?  (same disk volume, only on files)
[12:59] <glebihan> iceroot: the -samefile option of find should allow you to find all hard links to a file, ie "find / -samefile juhu"
[13:00] <quack> icerrot: if so, use EXTERNAL-PROGRAM to do it.  You can use clbuild or asdf-install to bring it down.
[13:00] <e1b26> Domain join operation failed to create the computer account in Active Directory. Common causes are a bad administrator password, a bad OU name, or an existing computer account without modification permissions.

[13:00] <e1b26> of ADS server 2003
[13:01] <greppy> Thelz: just about any external USB drive should work, you could even format it as fat32 (assuming you don't care about file permissions) and then it would be readable by your windows machines.
[13:01] <awanti> ubottu Thank you very much u solved my problem..
[13:01] <iceroot> quack: rsync knows all hardlinks
[13:01] <Braber01> !thanks | awanti
[13:01] <iceroot> glebihan: thank you
[13:01] <Thelz> greppy> I'm mostly referring to the required shell commands
[13:01] <glebihan> iceroot: you're welcome
[13:01] <greppy> andreiutz: I want to say that it is unhappy, I'd hit up google searching for "wd external linux" and see what pops up :)
[13:01] <quack> e1b26: use smbpasswd -a root, assign a new passwd to root, and then use root to add the domain.
[13:01] <Thelz> (Not really my setup, and I'm trying to save what I can here)
[13:02] <greppy> Thelz: do you have an external drive plugged into it?
[13:02] <Thelz> yeah, and then rebooted
[13:02] <BlaDe^> It appears the issue i'm having is also here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/610440
[13:02] <quack> iceroot: if you are sure, use them.  No harm trying.  You can always resort to symlinks later.
[13:03] <e1b26> still its same /......
[13:03] <iceroot> quack: with symlinks i have a big problem
[13:03] <greppy> Thelz: ok, at a terminal: df -kh
[13:03] <greppy> Thelz: do you see a new partition there?
[13:03] <iceroot> quack: i make a backup everyday, on the first day i create foobar, the day 2-6 i dont change foobar, on the 8 day i delete the backup from day 1. have fun with symlinks...
[13:04] <iceroot> quack: for that, hardlinks are perfect
[13:04] <greppy> iceroot: have you thought about using rsnapshot?
[13:04] <andreiutz> greppy, thank you !
[13:04] <iceroot> greppy: no, its a special integration with some tricks
[13:05] <leonidus> i hve made a webpage and intalled a LAMP server ... how do i proceed to host on my server?
[13:05] <BlaDe^> can I downgrade from 2.6.32-24-generic to 2.6.32-23 ?
[13:05] <iceroot> BlaDe^: normally you still have that kernel in the grub menu
[13:05] <airtonix> leonidus, investigate portforwarding for your adsl modem/router
[13:05] <greppy> BlaDe^: was the old kernel removed?
[13:05] <Braber01> Hi I was wondering if anybody could solve my keyring problem, I use a scure wireless network, however everytime I login using the login Shell, then startx I'm prompted to enter my password again to start my internet is there a way I can fix this?
[13:05] <Thelz> greppy> I see 2 /dev/mapper/ lines... they both have the size of the harddisks inside (which should be mirrored into one harddisk using the sweex controller)
[13:06] <quack> iceroot: I do not understand why the problem there.  Just create the foobar-YYYMMDD.bkp file, close it, symlink through EXTERNAL-PROGRAM, and open the symlink with WITH-OPEN-FILE.
[13:06] <greppy> leonidus: also check to make sure you won't be in violation of your ISP AUP :)
[13:06] <gsedej_work> hi! Where in 10.04 is GDM (theme, background) configuration file?
[13:06] <Thelz> one is /dev/mapper/Lapje-root (where Lapje is the server's name)
[13:06] <greppy> Thelz: ok, "dmesg | grep -i usb"
[13:06] <Thelz> the other is /dev/mapper/sil_ajajacgfbgbj5
[13:06] <BlaDe^> greppy:  I'm not sure I went straight from 9.10 to 10.04
[13:06] <Braber01> exit
[13:06] <airtonix> gsedej_work, there is not one. gdm2 themes are handled the same way your desktop theme is handled (this time round the login is done by the user called "gdm")
[13:06] <BlaDe^> I have the issue which is here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/610440
[13:07] <quack> iceroot: close the symlink when you rotate the backup by falling out of WITH-OPEN-FILE and open a new one with the procedure above.
[13:07] <leonidus> k greppy
[13:07] <greppy> BlaDe^: when you reboot, does grub give you the option of using the old kernel?
[13:07] <BlaDe^> some people say that it doesn't exist in the 2.6.32-23 kernel
[13:07] <BlaDe^> no greppy
[13:07] <airtonix> gsedej_work, so you need to run the appearances program while at the login screen
[13:07] <iceroot> quack: rsync has a build-in check-and-build-hardlink option
[13:07] <gsedej_work> airtonix, I need to change this on multiple pc, remote
[13:08] <gsedej_work> airtonix, you can't just copy .config, .gnome2, ...?
[13:08] <awanti> I want to connect my friend system (Ubuntu machine) through terminal using ssh. I am getting confuse how can i connect because he as 3 pc (he is using NAT for Internet )
[13:08] <Thelz> greppy: That shows a lot of stuff, and near the end there's "Device found at 2", but df -kh doesn't show it
[13:08] <greppy> awanti: he has to setup a forward on his router for you to be able to connect
[13:08] <greppy> Thelz: ok
[13:08] <iceroot> quack: so i dont need to fight with symlinks, also rsync is checking if the file is already there as a hardlink and not sending the same file again, so i dont have to fight with diffs too
[13:08] <gsedej_work> awanti, if he is using router, he needs to have port forwarding enabled
[13:08] <greppy> Thelz: just means that it did not mount it automatically, not a big deal.
[13:09] <airtonix> gsedej_work, i think you can do it with gconf-tool2
[13:09] <jink> bobthemilkman: Well, this is brilliant.... :(  I upgraded to lucid.  That didn't make my new kernel work, but the 27-7 still works, so that's fine.  Now I installed the 35-22-virtual as per your instructions, and that doesn't work.  After grub, it just says: [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x3400, size=0x430190]  [Initrd, addr=0x37c6c000, size=0x383712]
[13:09] <bobthemilkman> Get the headers, too.
[13:09] <gsedej_work> airtonix, thanks, I will try
[13:09] <Thelz> I have no idea how the usb drive is formatted. It's empty, tho, so it can be reformatted.
[13:09] <bobthemilkman> I think.
[13:09] <airtonix> gsedej_work, you might like to use the tool : ssh-cluster to send one command to many machines at the same time
[13:09] <gsedej_work> airtonix, thanks for advice! :)
[13:10] <BlaDe^> is anyone able to advise on my problem?
[13:10] <jink> bobthemilkman: Will do.  Brb. :)
[13:10] <greppy> Thelz: cd /dev/disk/by-id
[13:10] <greppy> Thelz: ls -l
[13:10] <awanti> i think he did every thing... but i want to know how to connect his pc... because he has only one ip address.. Through one ip he is connected to 3 pc. So here i want to access one of that pc... So how can i do this
[13:11] <awanti> ?
[13:11] <fnb> hey guys, I have just updated my 10.04 ubuntu installation and now my graphics are all messed up, I can only use the generic drivers and not the ati drivers
[13:11] <fnb> any ideas?
[13:11] <airtonix> gsedej_work, http://www.debianadmin.com/ssh-on-multiple-servers-using-cluster-ssh.html
[13:11] <greppy> BlaDe^: what kernel did you want to boot?
[13:12] <BlaDe^> well here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/610440 states that  2.6.32-23 doesn't have the issues
[13:12] <gsedej_work> airtonix, ok.. but there must be file on PC where gdm user has it's config files right?
[13:12] <chenlong_> awanti:use a rounter.
[13:12] <gsedej_work> I did on 1 machine manually (gnome-control-center
[13:12] <awanti> how plz.?
[13:13] <greppy> BlaDe^: what kernel package do you have installed?
[13:13] <Thelz> greppy: The last 2 lines refer to my USB drive, with ../../sdc and ../../sdc1
[13:13] <greppy> ok
[13:13] <BlaDe^> 32-24 , greppy : http://pastie.org/1188738 that's a dmesg which i was hoping may help diagnose the issue
[13:13] <greppy> Thelz: as root: mkdir /mnt/sdc1
[13:13] <airtonix> gsedej_work, im not sure, because gtk theme is stored with gconf. and to easily edit the gconf settings for the GDM user you would need to find where it stores its gconf settigns folder
[13:13] <greppy> Thelz: as root: mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/sdc1
[13:14] <gsedej_work> airtonix, I am searching for this! :)
[13:14] <airtonix> gsedej_work, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1448323
[13:14] <Thelz> mkdir cannot create directory, read only file system...
[13:14] <chenlong_> gsedej_wor:just right click.
[13:14] <greppy> BlaDe^: sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.32-23-generic
[13:15] <Thelz> greppy: Ubuntu found errors on the drive, which it seems unable to repair. Since then it has been acting like that, which is why I want to backup/reinstall
[13:15] <greppy> Thelz: ok... are you booted up into single user mode right now?  did the system crash or something?
[13:16] <greppy> Thelz: ah, mount -o remount,rw /
[13:16] <gsedej_work> chenlong_, what did you mean?
[13:16] <Thelz> I'm not exactly sure what happened. Earlier today I was copying files from a windows computer to the ubuntu computer, when suddenly windows gave a write error.
[13:16] <greppy> Thelz: then try the mkdir and mount commands again.
[13:16] <amol_> Hi all
[13:16] <amol_> What is the command to list all the drivers?
[13:16] <LjL> amol_: sudo lshw will do that
[13:16] <awanti> quit
[13:17] <serrneiros> hi all :)
[13:17] <Thelz> greppy: Got no feedback. Tried the mkdir again, and no feedback on that either :)
[13:17] <amol_> LjL, Thanks :)
[13:17] <greppy> Thelz: how about the mnt command?
[13:17] <chenlong_> gsedej_work:nothing.
[13:17] <Thelz> trying now... gotta run from one end of the room to the other all the time :P
[13:18] <greppy> doh!

[13:19] <vjpadron> buenas tardes
[13:19] <gnubuntu> hi
[13:19] <greppy> Thelz: ok, where is the data you want to save?
[13:19] <vjpadron> alguien por el canal de español
[13:19] <LjL> !es | vjpadron
[13:19] <vjpadron> buenas LjL
[13:20] <vjpadron> que tal, mira tengo una duda, me bajé un manual comprimido en winrar y quiero instalar el winrar en ubuntu, pero no me lo abre
[13:20] <Thelz> I'm not 100% sure, would have to check the samba.conf file for that... everything on the disk fits on the drive though... can't I just backup it all?
[13:20] <vjpadron> que tengo que hacer
[13:20] <greppy> Thelz: you could, but depending on what all is on there, you may be grabbing more than you need/want.
[13:20] <Thelz> It's like 1gb of ubuntu data and 60g of documents, so that 1 gb ain't gonna make a difference
[13:20] <greppy> *nod*
[13:23] <amol_> Integrated Webcam not working, please help
[13:23]  * Arafangi1n remembers the days when 1GB was *heaps* of space for an OS.
[13:23] <Thelz> arafangi1n> tell me about it... I think I ran windows 3.1 on a 40MB disk just fine :P
[13:23] <erUSUL> 20 MiB was plenty of space for MS-DOS 4.xx ;P
[13:24] <Thelz> MS DOS fits on one floppy... just the extra utilities
[13:24] <jink> bobthemilkman: That didn't help. :/
[13:24] <bobthemilkman> I'm out of ideas.
[13:24] <Arafangi1n> There was a time when even that 40MB disk would've been fine for linux.
[13:24] <bobthemilkman> Aside from go to an earlier kernel.
[13:24] <meidor> I can no longer connect to the WPA2-Enterprise PEAP-MSCHAPV2 my university has. My dmesg says deauthenticated by local choise (reason=3). I'm sure all my settings are correct, anyone who knows if there is fix?
[13:24] <ewook> Arafangi1n: it still is
[13:24] <Arafangi1n> ewook: Including the compiler?
[13:25] <Thelz> Ok, so what would the command be to copy the files to the usb drive?
[13:25] <ewook> Arafangi1n: :D. well... erhm..
[13:25] <greppy> Thelz: cp -R / /mnt/sdc1/
[13:25] <jink> bobthemilkman: 27-7 is what I use, now.  That works, but it seems silly. :/
[13:25] <greppy> it will probably take a while
[13:25] <bobthemilkman> Nothing silly about using what works.
[13:25] <Arafangi1n> ewook: I think the days of tomsrtbt are over. :( (Although I'm aware... That has no compiler, but 1.44MB!!)
[13:25] <gsedej_work> airtonix, I found it. Its in /usr/lib/gdm :)
[13:25] <jink> bobthemilkman: Heh, true dat. :)
[13:26] <gsedej_work> airtonix, I mean /var/lib/gdm :)
[13:26] <bobthemilkman> brb, I gotta restart because I upgraded my own kernel several hours ago and it's starting to cause issues.
[13:27] <Thelz> getting some permission denied errors on what seem to be system files, and of course it won't copy /mnt/sdc1/ itself... but I'll just check after what's on the disk
[13:27] <Thelz> anyhow, big thanks to your help so far, greppy
[13:28] <greppy> Thelz: no problem, and you might still be able to use fsck to fix the problems on the drive without having to reinstall.

[13:35] <airtonix> leonidus, did i not already tell you that you need to investigate portfrowarding ?
[13:36] <greppy> leonidus: does your server have a public IP address or is it behind a NAT router/gateway with an RFC1918 IP?
[13:37] <sacarlson> leonidus: I asume he has an adsl home system,  you need to setup your modem to forward ports to your server if you do

[13:51] <amol_> Integrated camera not working, please help
[13:51] <silv3r_m00n> is it possible to create an image of a folder , in some other location such that it appears to be a copy of the original folder but they both are actually the same thing ?
[13:52] <syrius> is it normal for piviti to take 11 hours to render a one hour song with a static image?
[13:52] <silv3r_m00n> making changes in either of them reflects in both
[13:52] <ChogyDan> syrius: is the eta going up or down?
[13:52] <popey> mika__: please test and file bugs, it's under active development unlike recordmydesktop!
[13:52] <ppq> silv3r_m00n, maybe you want a symbolic link. see 'man ln'
[13:52] <glebihan> silv3r_m00n: you can create a symbolic link, no hard links for folders
[13:52] <syrius> eta goes up and down ChogyDan
[13:53] <silv3r_m00n> glebihan: means ?
[13:53] <syrius> the file its outputting is at 16 mb now
[13:53] <silv3r_m00n> what is a hard link ?
[13:53] <Gryllida> how do I undo one action in vi?
[13:53] <syrius> it is encoding with mp4 with lame mp3
[13:53] <sipior> Gryllida: "u", in normal mode
[13:53] <glebihan> silv3r_m00n: as ppq suggested, you should refer to the manual of "ln"
[13:53] <iflema> Gryllida pre esc the u
[13:54] <glebihan> silv3r_m00n: a hard link is a location in the file system which points to a physical location on the drive
[13:54] <ChogyDan> syrius: well, Ive found pitivi sucks too.  next release might be a little better
[13:55] <Gryllida> sipior: Thanks
[13:55] <mika__> popey: i'll sure do it... (we're used to camtasia under windows... but i'm looking to move all the machines to ubuntu)
[13:55] <glebihan> silv3r_m00n: there can be several hard links for a file, not for a folder
[13:55] <silv3r_m00n> glebihan: there is a folder form inside /var/www  now I want this folder to appear inside /var/www/a and /var/www/b as if it was inside both of them
[13:56] <silv3r_m00n> is that possible ?

[13:56] <handjob> Bye.
[13:56] <atude> lol
[13:56] <glebihan> silv3r_m00n: a symbolic link should handle this, see the "-s" option of "ln"
[13:57] <silv3r_m00n> I have come up with this >> ln -s /var/www/form /var/www/a/form
[13:57] <kataq> horussz: yahoo and pidgin have never worked for me either
[13:57] <silv3r_m00n> and how do we delete these symbolic links ?
[13:57] <glebihan> silv3r_m00n: yes that'll work
[13:57] <erUSUL> silv3r_m00n: with rm like any other file
[13:57] <glebihan> silv3r_m00n: just as any file, with rm
[13:57] <silv3r_m00n> erUSUL: kewl
[13:57] <horussz> thanks
[13:57] <pure_hate> ikonia: ping
[13:57] <ppq> silv3r_m00n, you can simply delete the link with rm. but be sure not to delete the link-target-folder
[13:58] <silv3r_m00n> I created a symlink for a folder , didn't work :(
[13:58] <silv3r_m00n> are symlinks available only for files ?
[13:59] <maedox> silv3r_m00n: symlinks can point to anything
[13:59] <maedox> silv3r_m00n: « ln -s /from/path /to/path »
[14:00] <erUSUL> silv3r_m00n: it should work; tell us wehat command you used and how it failed
[14:00] <silv3r_m00n> ya did that , it created the symlink
[14:00] <evon> I know there is a search function in nautilus but is there a file search tool that gives the same search options as windows or more for linux?
[14:00] <silv3r_m00n> but when I double click that symlink in dolphin , nothing happens
[14:00] <maedox> silv3r_m00n: « rm /to/path »  to remove it. DO NOT put a -rf on the rm command.
[14:00] <silv3r_m00n> naither can I do cd new_path
[14:00] <dPix> hello :)
[14:00] <mika__> popey: just something missing: ability to record just a window/region of the screen, and the possibility to stop the record with just one click without show the menu (as gtk-recordmydesktop.... ctrl+alt+s doesn't work :) )
[14:00] <silv3r_m00n> maedox: hmm
[14:01] <maedox> silv3r_m00n: what does « ls -l path » give you?
[14:01] <popey> mika__: i filed a bug asking for keyboard shortcuts just last night :)
[14:01] <Thelz> What does "Revalidation failed" when trying to copy stuff? (There's a couple of lines in front of them)
[14:02] <mika__> popey: :)

[14:04] <erUSUL> evon: Accesorioes>search ?
[14:05] <dPix> erUSUL, do you know aimp?

[14:06] <jg47hm> guys how to sent files via bluetooth (from computer to mobile phone)???
[14:06] <erUSUL> !info qmmp | dPix
[14:06] <mattgyver> wez^, its probably easier to just backup important files and reinstall
[14:06] <dPix> erUSUL, http://programegratis.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/aimp.png
[14:06] <undecim> Braber01: You have a minimal install, I assume and network manager doesn't auto-connect to your network?
[14:06] <evon> giusepppe: i've heard of google gadgets but not google desktop
[14:06] <wez^> mattgyver: is it possible to degarde my distro back to 9.10? then upgrade it again if possible?
[14:06] <dPix> erUSUL, the thing is that I have 1 gb ram and 1 ghz cpu clock
[14:07] <dPix> erUSUL, do you think audacius would be a good choice then?
[14:07] <giusepppe> evon, it look likes Finder on Mac
[14:07] <evon> erusul: lol. i didn't even know that was there.  Thanks
[14:07] <aeon-ltd> !downgrade | wez^
[14:07] <jg47hm> guys how to sent files via bluetooth (from computer to mobile phone)???
[14:07] <Braber01> undecim: When I was using the GUI login it would automatically connect so I have no clue
[14:07] <mattgyver> wez^, anythings possible really but its gonna mean a lot of manual downgrading of packages and its really not gonna guarantee its pristine
[14:07] <evon> giusepppe: I actually don't know what that looks like. is it already packaged on ubuntu or do I have to install it?
[14:07] <erUSUL> dPix: both of the programs i linked you are very similar to this aimp just try them
[14:08] <dPix> jg47hm, bluetooth-wizard on a shell
[14:08] <undecim> Braber01: Is it an ethernet or wifi connection?
[14:08] <Braber01> undecim: wifi
[14:08] <mattgyver> wez^, the way to go is just backup /home and maybe /etc, restore /home and cherry pick conf files you know you need back in /etc
[14:09] <jg47hm> dPix, what do you mean "on a shell"?
[14:09] <ChogyDan> Braber01: you may need to use cnetworkmanager
[14:09] <undecim> Braber01: If it were me, I would just install wicd and remove network-manager
[14:09] <Braber01> cnetworkmanager?
[14:10] <jg47hm> dPix, what do you mean "on a shell"?
[14:10] <dPix> jg47hm, just run it on command promp
[14:10] <leshak> someone can help me? http://pastebin.com/mgi2EVxz
[14:10] <Braber01> ChogyDan: is that somthing like network manager but for using it in the shell?

[14:12] <maedox> Thelz: that is unheard of :P #ubuntu-server
[14:12] <erUSUL> Thelz: you can ask here; but probably more help in there ...
[14:12] <Thelz> ok, thanks, didn't know
[14:12] <sacarlson> eKyNoX: maybe leave the -t ext4dev out of your mount.  most the time it auto finds the partition type to mount for you
[14:12] <erUSUL> !raid > Thelz
[14:13] <Thelz> thanks
[14:13] <erUSUL> evon: sorry; not for you
[14:13] <Thelz> I actually was running a hardware raid

[14:14] <dPix> how to "udpate" the system in the way of local system, folders and all that. for example, if I delete "Music" folder @ ubuntu, it wil still appear @ "Places" on the taskbar
[14:14] <Jigal> can anyone help me with this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3819800/errors-when-testing-with-phpunit-3-5/3821029#3821029
[14:14] <Thelz> There's a Sweex network controller in the computer, with two identical SATA drives connected to it. The Sweex controller is supposed to be running the drives in mirrored raid mode
[14:14] <Ichat> Thelz:   -- you meen  like a hardware raid with its own processor and  memory  - or the one in  your mobo like   nVidia   has
[14:15] <giusepppe> Hi. I failed putting user on Ubuntu Installation (It should be 'giuseppe' not 'giusepppe'). How can I fix it?

[14:15] <boulabiar> how to make the mouse pointer larger than the maximum allowed in the config. window ?
[14:15] <boulabiar> where can I find the config file for the mouse pointer and co. ?
[14:15] <Thelz> Ichat> The Sweex controller is a PCI card, and the two SATA drives are connected to the PCI controller. I've set up the mirror in the Sweex control panel that appears on startup, right after the bios startup.
[14:16] <mattgyver> giusepppe, try usermod -l <old name> <new name>
[14:16] <Ichat> Thelz:   - if its sweex than its probably fakeraid (driver raid)...  and in that case try to make it set to   sata (ide) mode  and use    kraid    (kernal /  linux  /  sofware  raid in stead)
[14:16] <erUSUL> Thelz: if i where you i would use linux software raid
[14:17] <shadow98> hey guys is there a way to create seperate vnc sessions so another user can remote desktop into desktop without using my session
[14:17] <Thelz> Ok, well, I didn't do that now... but then I know how to do it next time. Had some problems, so busy trying to back up my files, and then I'll reinstall everything from scratch
[14:17] <giusepppe> mattgyver, giusepppe@giusepppe-desktop:~$ usermod -l giusepppe giuseppe

[14:17] <mattgyver> giusepppe, yeah i said it backwards it looks like :(
[14:18] <undecim> giusepppe: Or rather mattgyver gave you the names backwards

[14:18] <DarkStar1> hi ppl. Just a quick question. I want to dual boot ubuntu on my macbook pro, and want to use the 64 bit version. Which iso file do I need because the one I downloaded yesterday doesn't seem to work
[14:18] <shadow98> juk: that didn't work
[14:18] <jg47hm> dPix, thanks
[14:18] <aeon-ltd> DarkStar1: amd64
[14:18] <ibrahim-kasem> Hi, i have installed compiz and added some effects, now I want to un-install it and cancel all the effects how can i do that please?
[14:19] <juk> shadow98: for me works
[14:19] <DarkStar1> aeon-ltd: that's the one I downloaded
[14:19] <undecim> dPix: You should be able to right-click on "Pictures" from a file browser and remove it
[14:19] <Ichat> Thelz:  -  does the sweex card support an  ide mode?
[14:19] <aeon-ltd> ibrahim-kasem: just uninstall and the effects won't run
[14:19] <shadow98> juk: im talking the !x11vnc thing

[14:19] <trinity> i all

[14:19] <aeon-ltd> DarkStar1: read the wiki entry for it
[14:19] <illytaco> hey folks, is wubi actually a way to install ubuntu as a windows app? or does it actually partition the drive and install ubuntu as a dual boot OS?
[14:19] <aeon-ltd> !mac
[14:19] <ibrahim-kasem> aeon-ltd: Thnx, I will do this now.
[14:19] <juk> shadow98: well, look in software cneter then
[14:19] <shadow98> [14:19] <eKyNoX> sacarlson : it's the mount part where's my problem is located
[14:20] <eKyNoX> from your link
[14:20] <eKyNoX> don't want mount partition
[14:20] <DarkStar1> thanks guys I'll check it now
[14:20] <erUSUL> illytaco: the former; it uses a big file as disk image in the windows filesystem
[14:20] <dPix> undecim, no because it will not let me choose any option, will understand it as "open"
[14:20] <erUSUL> !wubi > illytaco
[14:20] <juk> shadow98: software center, apt-cache aptitude synaptics
[14:20] <Ichat> Oer:  - can i pm you for a sec?
[14:20] <benkong2> hey all
[14:21] <illytaco> ahh cool! thanks!
[14:21] <benkong2> is there a script or developer tool that will allow me to recursively search a dir and add podcasts to rhythmbox?
[14:21] <undecim> dPix: I don't mean the menu. Open your home folder and you should see the "Pictures" shortcut in the sidebar.
[14:21] <Oer> Ichat sure
[14:21] <juk> benkong2: it does that in gui
[14:21] <sacarlson> eKyNoX: ya just take out the type in you mount command and it should work
[14:22] <benkong2> juk: I tried import a folder but that does not import them
[14:22] <annecy> I've just noticed that Wireless functionality has disappeared. I last used it a fortnight ago and I can't think what I might have done to disable it, except I've got AWN installed and I had a startup script to disable wifi which I got from https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+question/67614, but I've since disabled it.
[14:22] <eKyNoX> sacarlson : i did => mount -t ext4dev /dev/sda3 /mnt
[14:22] <krishnan> i use ubuntu 9.04 and im nt able to find the available network icon on the top right side of the panel
[14:23] <eKyNoX> sacarlson : return : wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda3.
[14:23] <aeon-ltd> krishnan: add the applet to your panel
[14:23] <undecim> krishnan: press alt+f2 and type "nm-applet" and see if that fixes it
[14:23] <juk> benkong2: what kind of files you trying to import?
[14:23] <Thelz> Ichat> sorry, back.... I can just enable both the harddisks as if they are regular IDE harddisks (they're actually SATA). The RAID feature is optional.
[14:23] <benkong2> juk: mp3 podcasts
[14:23] <sacarlson> eKyNoX: yes change to mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
[14:24] <Thelz> I do need to use the controller, since the mobo doesn't support SATA
[14:24] <krishnan> undecim: checking
[14:24] <eKyNoX> sacarlson : returns unknown filesystem type ext4
[14:24] <juk> benkong2: for mp3 first you need install codecs
[14:24] <benkong2> dir structure is /Music/My Podcasts/Author One/*.mp3
[14:24] <undecim> If I configure pulseaudio as a server, can I let everyone output sound while allowing one group to change the volume and otherwise control the server?
[14:24] <sacarlson> eKyNoX: what live boot disk are you running
[14:24] <benkong2> juk: done codecs installed
[14:24] <erUSUL> eKyNoX: secon time... is ext4 *no* ext4dev ...
[14:24] <JDuke128> hi , is wvdial buggy ? i cant use wvdial to make 3g gprs connection , vdial: utils/wvtask.cc:202: WvTaskMan::WvTaskMan(): Assertion `getcontext(&get_stack_return) == 0' failed.
[14:25] <benkong2> It will already play podcasts if I subscribe to them
[14:25] <eKyNoX> sacarlson : debian 506
[14:25] <JDuke128> how can i fix this problem ?
[14:25] <juk> benkong2: so how you importing folder?
[14:25] <krishnan> undecim: i did not get anything while running nm-applet
[14:25] <dPix> undecim, no it is not there
[14:25] <eKyNoX> sacarlson : i'm on debian
[14:25] <eKyNoX> sorry
[14:25] <sacarlson> eKyNoX: I guess debien doesn't support ext4
[14:25] <dPix> undecim, it is only @ the shortcut at "Place"...
[14:25] <benkong2> control +O or music import
[14:25] <undecim> krishnan: Are you able to see other icons, like rhythmbox (when it's running) or your battery?
[14:25] <hclo> hey !
[14:25] <sacarlson> eKyNoX: download ubuntu 10.04 livecd and try again
[14:25] <krishnan> undecim: yes
[14:26] <undecim> krishnan: open a terminal
[14:26] <eKyNoX> sacarlson : ok, trying to restore my debian with ubuntu live cd, correct ?
[14:26] <krishnan> undecim: ok
[14:26] <juk> benkong2: so what are you getting?
[14:26] <undecim> dPix: Let me do some googling....
[14:26] <dPix> undecim, maybe restarting will work, any command for restarting linux and no the computer?
[14:26] <spajderix> hi
[14:26] <benkong2> It brings the files in under music
[14:26] <bazhang> eKyNoX, debian for #debian support
[14:26] <undecim> dPix: I don't think that would fix it, but what you would want to do is just log out, then back in
[14:26] <sacarlson> eKyNoX: so the system you are restoring is also debian?
[14:27] <krishnan> undecim: what next?
[14:27] <eKyNoX> bazhang : i know, no one know ..
[14:27] <undecim> dPix: Or better yet, press alt+f2 and type "killall gnome-panel"
[14:27] <dPix> ok
[14:27] <ibrahim-kasem> The sound stops coming out suddenly and I have to restart every time this happens.
[14:27] <dPix> undecim, brb
[14:27] <benkong2> Is there an xml file I can edit for the database or however configs are stored?
[14:27] <bazhang> eKyNoX, its offtopic here, dont ask
[14:27] <undecim> krishnan: type "ps aux | grep [n]m-applet"
[14:27] <eKyNoX> sacarlson : yes, i'm on debian lenny

[14:28] <mattgyver> ortsvorsteher, i had the same problem with a compaq, adding 'options snd-hda-intel' to the bottom of /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf fixed it for me
[14:28] <DarkStar1> aeon-ltd: brb. hope this works this time
[14:29] <sacarlson> spajderix: you could buy a usb to rs232 converter I guess
[14:29] <ortsvorsteher> mattgyver, only 'options snd-hda-intel' or something else?

I want to intall ubuntu (or another linux distro even. on my Imac's EXTERNAL usb hard drive. I CAN get through the installation fine enough but i just cannot seem to be able to BOOT from anything other then the primary HDD or tje ubuntu disk via the eFIT screen. HELP! lol please and t
[14:31] <jpkeelty> you.
[14:31] <ChesterX> Does a similar program to Spector Pro exist for ubuntu/linux?

[14:31] <hans-lunix> Hello all, I am trying to install a intel wifi card, but its hard... anyone ca n help a bit?
[14:32] <sacarlson> spajderix: you can check this out http://blog.mypapit.net/2008/05/how-to-use-usb-serial-port-converter-in-ubuntu.html
[14:32] <krishnan> undecim: ok
[14:32] <glebihan> juk: brb=be right back
[14:32] <undecim> krishnan: I'm not using the default network manager, so I have to google the sm-disable part XD
[14:33] <spajderix> sacarlson: thanks, looking into it right now
[14:33] <juk> glebihan: huh, that's smart, will take noute
[14:34] <undecim> krishnan: Alright, couldn't figure out what it does, but it seems like it's always used when starting nm-applet... Type "killall nm-applet" and see if the ps aux command still shows the same after that
[14:36] <sacarlson> jpkeelty: you might try look at your bios settings to see if it supports boot off usb,  it might support it if set to do so.
[14:37] <jpkeelty> sacarlson: in on an Imac... using OSX... there is no bios
[14:37] <sacarlson> jpkeelty: to see your bios setting you will have to reboot and hold the keys they tell you that are shown at boot time
[14:37] <sacarlson> jpkeelty: oh ok I know nothing

[14:42] <vegard_kvt> DrDamnit: You could also check out uck, which gives you the oppurtunity to modify Live CDs.
[14:42] <sacarlson> DrDamnit: I know you can add to a live cd if that's what you really want

[14:42] <DrDamnit> sacarlson: In certain cases, DNS wouldn't be available, so I would need the scripts to configure the NIC in order to get on the internet. Otherwise, downloads would be fine. Plus... never trust a user to download and execute bash scripts, right?

[14:43] <DrDamnit> vegard_kvt: downloading uck.
[14:43] <blackdoggy> help
[14:43] <sacarlson> DrDamnit: ya and why not just have it auto boot your code and by just stick in the disk and turn it on
[14:43] <DrDamnit> sacarlson: that would be even better.
[14:43] <undecim> krishnan: So this is a NAS (network attached storage) drive then?
[14:43] <jpkeelty> undecim: well again much appreciated... just frustrated you'd THINK it would be eaier to get a linux distro up and running then windows.. but no luck so far
[14:44] <sacarlson> DrDamnit: I guess add it to the /etc/init.d section of your live cd
[14:44] <krishnan> undecim: no, a normal one
[14:44] <undecim> krishnan: I'm confused. What is this drive connected to?
[14:45] <sacarlson> DrDamnit:  check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[14:45] <undecim> jpkeelty: From what I understand, macs have a different boot process than pcs, so a drive that's bootable on pcs might not be bootable on macs... or maybe I just misunderstand it...
[14:47] <jpkeelty> undecim: for sure.. and that IS true... but seeing as i CAN (though dont want to ) get windows running in a dual boot from external usb drive senerio...you would THINK there must be some way to do the same with linux
[14:47] <krishnan> undecim: my computer
[14:48] <undecim> krishnan: You should just be able to right-click on the drive and choose the sharing option
[14:48] <undecim> krishnan: Share it as if it were a folder
[14:48] <jcrawford> morning everyone
[14:48] <rednammoc> hi guys. is there a way to list all available virtualbox-shares from host ?
[14:48] <krishnan> undecim: ok
[14:48] <ppq> rednammoc, ubuntu guest?
[14:49] <undecim> jpkeelty: You might be able to use wubi from windows to put ubuntu on a dedicated partition
[14:49] <rednammoc> ppq: yep
[14:49] <sevenearths> does ubuntu 10.04 server come with a desktop
[14:49] <ppq> rednammoc, try smb://vboxsrv/ in nautilus
[14:49] <undecim> sevenearths: no
[14:49] <krishnan> undecim: thank u
[14:49] <undecim> sevenearths: If you need one though, you can install it.
[14:49] <krishnan> undecim: bye
[14:49] <dwarder> what do you use to instal apache php mysql on ubuntu for development?
[14:49] <sevenearths> :( bummer

[14:53] <mattgyver> annecy, please see pm
[14:54] <ppq> rednammoc, ok, did you also try smb://ip/? to find out the ip of the host, look at /etc/resolv.conf or 'ifconfig' if it's configured as NAT
[14:54] <rednammoc> ppq: tried this too

[14:59] <ilsant0> hi all
[14:59] <ost2life> a question about sleeping. I can get my computer to sleep from the keyboard or remote no problems at all, however I can't get the box to wake up without actually pressing the power button on it, there's no response to keyboard, mouse or remote control input
[14:59] <ost2life> ..so is there anyway to fix that?
[14:59] <blackdoggy> E: nvidia-current: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
[14:59] <ilsant0> where I can download a lucid ISO with all update at this moment ?
[14:59] <Seveas> ost2life, yes, press the powerbutton :)
[15:00] <BluesKaj> howdy folks
[15:00] <blackdoggy> hi can anyone help me with  installation script  error2
[15:00] <Seveas> ilsant0, there is no iso with all updates, but there is 10.04.1
[15:00] <ppq> ilsant0, there are no daily built lucid isos. you can use 10.04.1
[15:00] <blackdoggy> i cant install  nvidia
[15:00] <Seveas> ilsant0, http://releases.ubuntu.com/lucid/
[15:00] <ilsant0> ok tnx
[15:00] <ost2life> Sevas: thanks :P I mean is there any way to set it up so that a certain input wakes the machine up?
[15:01] <Seveas> ost2life, no
[15:01] <jcrawford> ost2life, are you using bluetooth keyboard/mouse?>
[15:01] <Ken8521> blackdoggy, which nvidia device?.. and how are you trying to install it
[15:01] <Nokio> hi all, i get this error when i try to do a apt-get update on my ubuntu10.04 box   http://pastebin.com/CZjAXsek if someone as an idea of why it does that
[15:01] <ost2life> at the moment I've got a wired keyboard and mouse, and a RF/USB remote control
[15:01] <jcrawford> hmm odd
[15:01] <jcrawford> not sure sorry
[15:02] <jcrawford> i figured it was bluetooth because i have had the same problem with them
[15:02] <ost2life> but it's an xbmc box and i want to do away with the kb and mouse
[15:02] <cooper_> hola
[15:02] <dwarder> !es
[15:02] <Seveas> Nokio, please pastebin the entire output
[15:02] <cooper_> oks
[15:02] <cooper_> :)
[15:03] <blackdoggy> ken8521: how will i find my model?
[15:03] <benhem> I have a confusing wifi issue, in 10.04 ... it suddenly stopped finding the wifi device, and the driver also seems to be missing.
[15:04] <Ken8521> blackdoggy, type "lspci" no quotes in a terminal and hit enter.. look through the output and find your video device
[15:04] <benhem> ifconfig and lshw don't show the wifi
[15:05] <BluesKaj> benhem,have updated your packages recently ?
[15:05] <Nokio> Seveas, here goes http://pastebin.com/spam.php?i=uEvwdzL3 Thanks in advance
[15:05] <benhem> I apt-get updated over and over a minute ago
[15:05] <benhem> seems good there
[15:06] <Seveas> Nokio, that's not a pastebin link...
[15:06] <BluesKaj> ok benhem , open network manager
[15:06] <benhem> kl
[15:06] <blackdoggy> ken8521: Geforce 9300M Gs
[15:07] <Ken8521> blackdoggy, ok.. do you have anything in System/Admin/Hardware Drivers?
[15:07] <benhem> BluesKaj: not sure which you meant, I have Network Connections and Network Tools open
[15:07] <Nokio> Seveas, my bad      here goes http://pastebin.com/5ZFrvvm2
[15:07] <blackdoggy> ken8521: i cant see hardware drivers
[15:07] <rocket16> Is there any alternative for MS OneNote in Linux? Basket, Tomboy, GNote, Zim, Newton etc. are not comparable. :(
[15:07] <BluesKaj> benhem, check the sttings , make sure they're the same, network manager in aps
[15:07] <Ken8521> blackdoggy, what version of ubuntu are you using?
[15:08] <blackdoggy> ken8521: 10.04
[15:08] <Nokio> Seveas, i think i found the problem. Ill confirm in a minute
[15:08] <AbhiJit> heaaa
[15:08] <Seveas> Nokio, looks like either ca.archive is busted or you use a broken proxy
[15:08] <Ken8521> blackdoggy, and you don't have system/admin/hardware drivers?.. or there's just nothing there?
[15:09] <blackdoggy> ken8521: i dont have system admin hw drives
[15:09] <Nokio> Seveas, it actualy the second option lol... I just added  Acquire::http::Proxy "false"; on the apt.conf and it now work just fine !
[15:09] <blackdoggy> ken8521: was doing a restore this evening and everything  got messed up
[15:09] <benhem> BluesKaj: oh, nm-applet --sm-disable ?
[15:09] <Ken8521> blackdoggy, nothing about drivers in the admin menu?
[15:09] <Nokio> Saveas, many thanks for your time !! it is much apreciated !
[15:10] <Seveas> Nokio, kill the stupid proxy :)
[15:10] <benhem> BluesKaj: not sure how to actually open the thing, when I run that in term it says it's already running
[15:10] <rocket16> !onenote
[15:10] <blackdoggy> ken8521: yes tried edeting the menu but nothing there
[15:10] <rocket16> Lol. Looks like there is no decent alternative. :d
[15:10] <Nokio> Seveas, the proxy seems to be working really well for http though lol anyway ill bypass the proxy for now thanks again !
[15:10] <Ken8521> blackdoggy, hmm, well, you're probably gonna have to install the driver from Nvidia... and I've never done that
[15:10] <Seveas> Nokio, which proxy is it?
[15:11] <Ken8521> !nvidia | blackdoggy
[15:11] <Nokio> Seveas it is a squid/dansguardian proxy i believe
[15:12] <blackdoggy> ken8521: done that  thats where i got the error
[15:12] <Ken8521> blackdoggy, yeah, sorry, i won't be much help
[15:12] <blackdoggy> ken8521: thanx  for ur time
[15:13] <blackdoggy> ken8521: will probably  reinstall the system
[15:13] <blackdoggy> no choice
[15:13] <Ken8521> blackdoggy, probably will be faster than finding a fix
[15:13] <blackdoggy> ken8521: yeah right
[15:13] <benhem> ok, sorry for repost: wifi device and driver disappeared...  running 10.04, gnome
[15:13] <blackdoggy> ken8521: see u around..... peace
[15:14] <benhem> it's a dual boot windows machine and the device/driver are missing from windows too
[15:15] <ghostlines> i'm using my all of my download bandwidth, and accessing my server is going much slower than usual why is this i have 3mbit upload that's hardly being used
[15:16] <mattgyver> ghostlines, everytime i have that problem its always an ISP issue.  I would start there to rule that out.
[15:17] <[F_]over> hey. problem mit Netzwerkinstallation bei Ubunutu installation
[15:18] <[F_]over> Ihr Netzwerk benutzt möglicherweise nicht das DHCP-Protokoll
[15:18] <[F_]over> ...
[15:18] <[F_]over> weiß jemand was dazu?
[15:18] <ppq> [F_]over, komm mal rüber nach #ubuntu-de
[15:18] <[F_]over> sry
[15:18] <ppq> [F_]over, hier ist nur englisch angesagt
[15:18] <ikar> i installed grub 0.97 as i didn't figure out how to update-grub otherwise, but when i run update-grub this is apearing: "Searching for splash image ... none found, skipping ..."
[15:18] <[F_]over> sry for german
[15:18] <[F_]over> -.-
[15:18] <ghostlines> mattgyver, hmm what kind of issue then? my upload is fine normally i don't have upload problems, this is the first time
[15:18] <blink> i've just downloaded a piano application for ubuntu and it is not giving out any sound!
[15:19] <blink> i actually got it from the Ubuntu Software Center under the name "VMPK"
[15:19] <mattgyver> ghostlines, it might not be I just know in my experience i always find out at speedtest.net that my upload limit is really low and call the ISP and they say 'oh yeah somethings wrong'
[15:20] <sacarlson> ghostlines: it's not likely but there are cases where packet size can cause slow downs.  some times ISP's change the packet size without notice.  I'm not sure of the details
[15:21] <Ken8521> mattgyver, well ti depends on how low it is... yoru upload speed is almost always substantially less than your download.
[15:21] <Ken8521> you really need to know the speed terms of your provider.. it might be exactly where it's supposed to be
[15:21] <muso_nn> can someone tell me what is the differences of ubuntu netbook edition and normal ubuntu ? Has the netbook edition differences on linux kernel or just the desktop manager (gui) ?
[15:21] <ben_q> hello, is there a way to display a progress bar for "cp" ?
[15:21] <Karen_m> problem:  my window's shares are missing.  How do I restart the scan or whatever?   If i reboot, they will come back.
[15:21] <ppq> muso_nn, just gui
[15:22] <Ken8521> muso_nn, far as i know just the GUI.
[15:22] <Ken8521> other than NBR sucks, and Gnome doesn't
[15:22] <muso_nn> ppq:  Ken8521: ok thanks...
[15:22] <tarabaz> Karen-m - is your sharing machine is online?
[15:22] <martez89> how can i force the fans in my lapton (acer aspire 5542) to be on? I got this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/387620
[15:23] <glebihan> ben_q: no
[15:23] <Karen_m> tarabaz, yes
[15:23] <sacarlson> ghostlines: if it's the case you want to change th MTU http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-change-mtu-maximum-transmission-unit-of-network-interface-in-ubuntu-linux.html
[15:23] <Karen_m> tarabaz, things like this seem to happen all the time with ubuntu.  I just get "windows networking" icon where it never used to be there...
[15:23] <MooshiMuushi> Hey peoples, question! :D When you change the bitrate of an audio within a video, Would that out sync everything?
[15:23] <Ken8521> martez89, if there is, lemme know... i just went ahead and bought a cooling pad, problem solved.
[15:23] <tarabaz> Karen_m - first check that machine with shares is online
[15:24] <Karen_m> tarabaz, it is, the computer right beside me can see the other shares... (win7->win7)
[15:24] <tarabaz> ok
[15:24] <mattgyver> martez89, ive only ever seen that option in some bios's .. dunno if theres any other way
[15:24] <tarabaz> did you know it IP and share name?
[15:26] <Karen_m> yes
[15:26] <tarabaz> so before restarting check that you can connect to it from places->connect with server
[15:26] <Karen_m> tarabaz, it's something wrong with ubuntu, where it doesn't scan or poll for shares or something. Whenever I see this stupid icon... the darned shares won't work
[15:27] <martez89> I only know you can change /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile to another profile, but I don't know what prevents my laptop from overheating
[15:27] <tarabaz> yes - i know - i can't connect with my mac shares sometimes :/
[15:28] <Jigal> anyone here to help me with this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3819800/errors-when-testing-with-phpunit-3-5

[15:31] <Mutro1> Hi, I used Unetbootin to put an image of Ubuntu onto a USB drive and when I boot off the USB I get "Bootldr is missing" or something like that what do I do
[15:31] <blockhead> You mean my hdd is no longer good sacarlson ?
[15:31] <ikonia> pure_hate: pong, you called

[15:32] <sacarlson> blockhead: what application gives that message?
[15:32] <ikonia> blockhead: that is a hardware / smart warning message telling you your disk will soon fail
[15:33] <ikonia> sacarlson: it's SMART

[15:34] <martez89> how can i restart the panel without restarting my pc?
[15:35] <Mutro1> Hi, I used Unetbootin to put an image of Ubuntu onto a USB drive and when I boot off the USB I get "Bootmgr is missing" or something like that what do I do
[15:36] <Mutro1> Because it was a ISO image direct from the servers
[15:36] <mm2> My LVM and GRUB got a bit messed during update from 8.04 to 10.04. Now I can boot with older kernel to temporary shell, but HOW I can edit /etc/fstab to use real /dev/-directories instead of UIDs? It is readonly shell?
[15:36] <Mutro1> So I dont know why Bootmgr is missing from the iso image
[15:36] <andrey_> Hello. Can I connect to remote desktop through INTERNET without real IP-address ?
[15:37] <ikonia> mm2: the eas way is to boot from a livecd and mount the file systems read-write
[15:37] <ikonia> andrey_: what do you want to use instead of a real address
[15:38] <grigoris> yaaa
[15:38] <Mutro1> ikonia: How come Bootmgr is missing from the ISO image on my USB boot
[15:39] <tensorpudding> andrey_: if you have a router doing NAT, you'll have do something like port forwarding
[15:39] <mm2> ikonia: But... It would take time, like... quater of an hour! :) And I think live CD doesn't regognize LVM+SATA-drives? If I remember right
[15:39] <ikonia> Mutro1: don't know
[15:39] <Mutro1> Is it something bad with the ISO
[15:39] <ikonia> mm2: it should see lvm ok, you can mount the disk read/write from our recovery shell with mount -o remount rw
[15:39] <dPix> any very verbose application for monitoring as many things as possible to do with packages, proccesses, hardware...?????
[15:40] <ikonia> dPix: the shell and log files, why do you tell us what you actually want
[15:40] <andrey_> Provider give me local IP address. I use internet trough the NAT
[15:40] <sacarlson> andrey_: real ip-address?  you will need there world ip to connect to them or them to you and have the ports forwarded in your adsl modem to the device to control
[15:40] <mm2> ikonia: ty, must try it... tomorrow :)
[15:40] <ikonia> andrey_: ok, so you can't get through nat without knowing the public internet address
[15:41] <shadowhywind_> does anyone know how to replace text in a postscript (ps) file?
[15:41] <andrey_> in win I can connect with program TeamViewer
[15:41] <uLinux> hell0
[15:41] <sacarlson> andrey_: you can go to whatismyip.com to find your world address
[15:41] <ikonia> andrey_: what ip address do you connect in teamviewer ?
[15:41] <dPix> ikonia, why do I tell us what I want? because I don't know any app for a hardcore monitoring @ linux :)
 I can't use it IP
[15:41] <ikonia> dPix: hardcore monoitoring ?
[15:41] <ikonia> dPix: what do you actually want to monitor and in what way
[15:42] <sacarlson> andrey_: well it must work the other way?  you might be able to vpn together then do your remote software
 Program ask only login and password. I think connection through their server
[15:42] <sasori2501> hey guys, anyone know a good online game for RISK???
[15:42] <ikonia> andrey_: ok, then that can't work then
[15:43] <sasori2501> or a ubuntu app for it, to play with others online
 VPN don't ask real IP ?
[15:43] <ken__> make love
[15:43] <dPix> ikonia, to have a full control of what apps are doing, if for example firefox creates a cookie or sniffing my wifi (actually wireshark is not working for me as it doesnt let me to select my eth0 device)....
[15:43] <JohnHeikkila> Hey
[15:43] <dPix> hey JohnHeikkila
[15:43] <sacarlson> andrey_: one of you must have a world ip with ports to connect to for it to work
[15:43] <ikonia> dPix: that's an unrealistic level of monitoring expectation
[15:44] <dPix> ikonia, I see
[15:44] <uLinux> dPix: you need to run it as root.
[15:44] <JuJuBee> Is there a channel dedicated to mint?
[15:44] <dPix> ikonia, run what
[15:44] <uLinux> dPix: gksudo wireshar
[15:44] <ikonia> dPix: I didn't say anyhing
[15:44] <uLinux> dPix: gksudo wireshark
[15:44] <andrey_> Maybe some free servers fore remote connections ?
[15:44] <ikonia> !mint | JuJuBee
[15:44] <JuJuBee> Thanks
[15:44] <dPix> sorry, uLinux
[15:44] <sacarlson> andrey_: I remote control my freind with him vpn to me then I remote to him over the simulated local vpn network
[15:44] <dPix> ikonia, was to uLinux sorry
[15:45] <ikonia> not a problem
[15:45] <dPix> uLinux, thanks let my try
[15:45] <uLinux> ok

[15:46] <dPix> uLinux, spanish hahaha
[15:46] <uLinux> :P
[15:47] <dPix> ikonia, spanish is much more beautiful than portuguese :P
[15:47] <BluesKaj> back, switched over to gnome...trying to keep current with gnome
[15:47] <dPix> uLinux, THANKS a lot :D
[15:47] <dPix> uLinux, wireshark now perfect working
[15:49] <BluesKaj> hmm, what happened to network manager? ...that network tools app doesn't sem to have any wifi options
[15:49] <uLinux> dPix: :)
[15:50] <dPix> uLinux, any difference between gksudo and sudo?
[15:50] <uLinux> dPix: sudo is for CLI gksudo is for GUI apps
[15:50] <uLinux> (something like this)
[15:50] <dPix> uLinux, thanks
[15:50] <BluesKaj> dPix, gksudo for opening an editor on the desktop
[15:50] <kataq> has anyone gotten touchfreeze to work?
[15:50] <Gladys> Hi, I'm trying to install ubuntu into a netbook, I was able to download the program
[15:51] <dPix> BluesKaj, thanks :)
[15:51] <BluesKaj> dPix, sudo for cli , gksudo for gui
[15:52] <uLinux> BluesKaj: network manager works fine here
[15:52] <Gladys> but when I tried to open the Universal USB installer it crashed, any suggestion what could be causing that
[15:52] <dPix> how to put the wifi card in monitor mode?
[15:53] <POVaddct> is it possible to force usb-creator to use a non-removable disk (ata) as target?
[15:53] <JohnHeikkila> dPix: >iwconfig eth0 mode Monitor<
[15:53] <AbhiJit> POVaddct, it should not be the on currennt os running on
[15:53] <BluesKaj> uLinux, ok , maybe I deleted it due to my kde and /etc/network/interfaces usage
[15:53] <JohnHeikkila> dPix: and replace "eth0" into "wlan0"
[15:54] <POVaddct> AbhiJit: of course
[15:54] <AbhiJit> POVaddct, yah then you can just give a try
[15:54] <dPix> JohnHeikkila, >iwconfig wlan0 mode Monitor<  then?? right?
[15:54] <uLinux> BluesKaj: what's your issue with Network Manager?
[15:54] <JohnHeikkila> dPix: I think that's it
[15:54] <POVaddct> AbhiJit: i just, did, but usb-creator-gtk won't let me select the ata disk
[15:54] <JohnHeikkila> dPix: But do that in "sudo" so do sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode Monitor"
[15:54] <POVaddct> AbhiJit: thats why i asked
[15:54] <kataq> Even if I disable the touchpad using TouchFreeze it won't be disable? anyone know what I can do?
[15:55] <AbhiJit> POVaddct, ohhhhhhhh
[15:55] <kunu>  What is the difference of “sh-c "echo 'yes'> / etc / pure-ftpd / conf / ChrootEveryone"“
[15:55] <kunu> and  "echo 'yes'> / etc / pure-ftpd / conf / ChrootEveryone"
[15:55] <sasori2501> anyone know a ubuntu app game for online play of RISK??
[15:55] <AbhiJit> POVaddct, is it formated with fat32?
[15:56] <POVaddct> AbhiJit: it is not formatted at all. usb-creator is supposed to partition and format it.
[15:56] <AbhiJit> POVaddct, try formatting it
[15:56] <Renderspec> anybody know if there is a way to keep the netstat command actively monitoring until key is pressed??
[15:56] <POVaddct> AbhiJit: but it won't let me select disks other than usb
[15:56] <Marcopolo> hello ppl :)
[15:56] <AbhiJit> first
[15:56] <BluesKaj> uLinux, no issues , i was trying to help someone earlier with their wifi set up but due to my setup not using wifi on this pc , i had no reference to look at.
[15:56] <uLinux> BluesKaj: oh ok
[15:56] <dPix> JohnHeikkila, yes yes I was trying it with sudo but it is returning "SET failed on device wlan0 ; No such device."
[15:56] <POVaddct> AbhiJit: i also did, but still no select possible
[15:57] <Marcopolo> guys i have a problem could help me  anybody  i can't connect more than 2 users via nx
[15:57] <AbhiJit> POVaddct, dunno then
[15:57] <JohnHeikkila> dPix: That means you don't have a device called "wlan0". It may be with another name. Do "sudo iwconfig"
[15:57] <JohnHeikkila> dPix: Then, on the left you will see the devices (on the output)
[15:57] <POVaddct> any usb-creator developers here? what must be changed in the python code to let me select ata disks as install targets?
[15:58] <Braber01> JohnHeikkila: you might want to check what shell your using as well I don't know <-- sitll a newbie
[15:58] <Marcopolo> guys any ideeas? how to change my nx with max 2 connections with one with more than 10 connection<
[15:58] <dPix> ok
[15:58] <perlsyntax> what is pygtk2 uner in ubntu apt-get?
[15:58] <dPix> JohnHeikkila, "sudo iwconfig eth1 mode Monitor"  returned nothing so I guess it is ok
[15:58] <perlsyntax> under
[15:58] <dPix> JohnHeikkila, also wifi has been restarted on my comp
[15:58] <JohnHeikkila> dPix: Yes, I think it is OK
[15:58] <JohnHeikkila> dPix: Sounds promising :)
[15:58] <JohnHeikkila> Braber01: Excuse me?
[15:59] <Marcopolo> can anyone help me?
[15:59] <Braber01> JohnHeikkila: set works in diffrent ways depending on what shell your working on, just saying..

[16:00] <Braber01> when I say shell i mean bash,tcsh,csh,ksh etc...
[16:00] <benhem> lspci doesn't show my wireless card, does that mean it has truly crapped out in a hardware way?
[16:00] <benhem> any way to confirm that?
[16:00] <perlsyntax> maybe i got it install and i don't know it.
[16:00] <karim> It may be silly, but, has the laptop killer bug been fixed ?
[16:00] <Braber01> !ping
[16:00] <uLinux> perlsyntax: open synaptic manager
[16:00] <sacarlson> Marcopolo: what application only lets you connect to 2 users?

[16:04] <Gigacore> Hey guys, I logged into KDE and after logging back to gnome, the firefox font rendering went bad. How to fix?
[16:04] <benhem> BluesKaj: ok, there was a response on pan0 and eth0
[16:04] <dwarder> why ubuntu's rhythmbox emits that nasty sound when you move playing dial
[16:05] <Kruptein> hey I get this output every time I try to install software or update the system :  http://dpaste.com/250518/   (it's in dutch)

[16:06] <vevais> hello there
[16:06] <BluesKaj> benhem, thinking you lost your wifi card driver
[16:06] <dPix> hi vevais
[16:06] <oCean> Marcopolo: how is your question an ubuntu issue?
[16:06] <benhem> BluesKaj: but it doesn't show up on lspci either
[16:07] <benhem> BluesKaj: I downloaded the driver from hp and did modprobe wl
[16:07] <benhem> it didn't complain
[16:07] <vevais> My Ubuntu 10.4 won't boot so I booted a Live-CD to recover my file, but I can't access my home-directory. It keeps saying ERROR: Encrypted private directory is not setup properly
[16:07] <benhem> but I think this means the device is truly borked
[16:07] <benhem> :/
[16:07] <leshak> i need from help! http://pastebin.com/qNKUbBGM Please!!!
[16:08] <BluesKaj> benhem, laptop ?
[16:08] <benhem> yep
[16:08] <monia> nk.pl
[16:08] <BluesKaj> dual boot with windows. benhem?
[16:08] <benhem> BluesKaj: yes
[16:08] <vevais> Can anyone help me, please?
[16:08] <benhem> BluesKaj: and the problem DID start when I rebooted into windows for the first time
[16:09] <dPix> vevais, why dont you try a Knopping livecd?
[16:09] <benhem> BluesKaj: (windows 7)
[16:09] <dPix> vevais, Knoppix*
[16:09] <TRH2O> Hi
[16:09] <TRH2O> How are you?
[16:09] <vevais> dPix: Will that help?
[16:09] <BluesKaj> ok, is your wifi workonhg in windows , at least we'll know if the HW actually works
[16:09] <dPix> vevais, not sure but had lot of trouble with my hdd and recover everything with Knoppix
[16:09] <Misterio> TRH2O: Hi, we are fine. Can we help you?
[16:09] <benhem> BluesKaj: nope, same response there -- no driver, no device foudn
[16:10] <vevais> dPix: Okay, will have a try. Thanks.
[16:10] <uLinux>  I use default Ubuntu folders so... do I need "User folders update" at startup?
[16:10] <BluesKaj> no device found in windows , benhem ?
[16:10] <dPix> vevais, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory
[16:11] <benhem> BluesKaj: right
[16:11] <leshak> :( i need from help! http://pastebin.com/qNKUbBGM Please!!!
[16:11] <BluesKaj> uhoh
[16:11] <oCean> leshak: no need to repeat all that quickly
[16:11] <benhem> :/   how weird that the moment it crapped out coincided with the windows reboot
[16:11] <benhem> really made me think it was software
[16:11] <glebihan> leshak: use sudo
[16:11] <Promethes> hi, since the last kernel update two days ago(to linux-generic-pae 2.6.32.25.27) my ubuntu starts hanging on plymouth boot screen. Anyone experiences similar crashes?
[16:12] <glebihan> leshak: sudo apt-get install apache2
[16:12] <benhem> there's no low-level port address list that can get mangled that would affect both the linux and the windows partitions?
[16:12] <leshak> glebihan: i'm using root user.
[16:12] <oCean> leshak: also: check if you really cannot write to that directory, try for example "touch /var/cache/apt/mytestfile"
[16:12] <glebihan> leshak: oh right didn't notice
[16:12] <dPix> vevais, http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-desktop-74/error-encrypted-private-directory-is-not-setup-properly-800472/
[16:12] <BluesKaj> benhem, use the pc you are using and download the windows driver to a usb stick or some removable device and install it on the windows side of your laptop
[16:13] <benhem> BluesKaj: well, I'm on ethernet on the laptop.  will that work?
[16:13] <Marcopolo> guys i need to a little help please  i have a nx problem i can't connect more than 2 users what to do?
[16:13] <leshak> oCean: touch: cannot touch `/var/cache/apt/myfile': Read-only file system
[16:13] <oCean> Marcopolo: again, how is that an ubuntu issue?
[16:13] <oCean> leshak: there is your problem
[16:13] <BluesKaj> benhem, then if the wifi chipset doesn't work we'll know for sure.
[16:13] <benhem> BluesKaj: I'll reboot into windows and try from there, brb
[16:13] <bigdonfaraon> мужики, как настроить экран загрузки?

[16:14] <Marcopolo> i believe i have to change with some free NX
[16:14] <Marcopolo> yes my server is in ubuntu
[16:14] <bigdonfaraon> спс
[16:14] <oCean> Marcopolo: your issue is with NX, not ubuntu. Stop asking
[16:15] <glebihan> leshak: is your filesystem mounted read-only ?
[16:15] <Marcopolo> i want to know how i could change those  is  Ubuntu

[16:18] <coz_> anygivenname,  I didnt see your question...would you mind repeating it ?
[16:18] <anygivenname> hi....i am using remote sharing ....how do I copy & paste files ?
[16:18] <mattgyver> awanti, is port 22 forwarded to the machine in your router?  also thats an internal IP is he on your network?
[16:18] <coz_> anygivenname,  ah darn... I am not the right person for those questions .... also if no one here has an answer at the moment, you could try  ##linux channel
[16:19] <ubun7u> hello anyone can tell me a good social networking client for ubuntu
[16:19] <bobstro> awanti:  where is he connecting from, local network or remote via internet?
[16:19] <ubun7u> gwibber sucks
[16:19] <awanti> yes from local u r right
[16:19] <kapcom01> hello, i would like to replace my hard drive with another one. Should i just dd the / partition? Maybe grub-install on the new disk? Is that all?
[16:19] <glebihan> awanti: do you have a firewall ?
[16:19] <AndrewMC> ubun7u: gwibber
[16:19] <ubun7u> no plz
[16:19] <awanti> yes
[16:19] <awanti> yes i have firewall
[16:19] <ubun7u> i removed that package months ago
[16:20] <glebihan> awanti: did you open port 22 ?
[16:20] <ubun7u> any reliable client?
[16:20] <awanti> how do i do this. please tell me
[16:20] <glebihan> awanti: what's your firewall ? iptables ?
[16:21] <AndrewMC> ubun7u: gwibber is the only one i see
[16:21] <bobstro> anygivenname:  what sort of remote sharing?
[16:21] <airtonix> awanti, 1. make sure you have open-sshserver installed, 2. make sure your machine has a ufw rule for 22 : sudo ufw allow in on eth0 for port 22
[16:22] <airtonix> awanti, assuming your using wired port to connect on the 192.168.1.x network
[16:22] <anygivenname> is sudo a correct command ?
[16:22] <airtonix> anygivenname, why wouldn't it be ?
[16:23] <anygivenname> it is not working
[16:23] <dPix> !sudo > anygivenname
[16:23] <bobstro> anygivenname:  it lets you run a command as root or another user
[16:23] <airtonix> anygivenname, then a) you're not using a debian based linux OS, or something is fundamentally wrong with your install
[16:23] <Inferus> yo
[16:23] <crazygir> I have a zoom modem which needs to build a module for the kernel (so it needs the sources, etc) I only have a connection to the net temporarialy, so I was hoping to download everything needed for this installer to do its work - what should I install through apt?

[16:28] <benhem> BluesKaj: I'm in win7, checking online for drivers, and hp's site says they don't have them for win7 -- only xp, 2000, vista.  So I'm wondering if somehow booting into an OS with no drivers for the wifi screwed it up somehow

[16:29] <sujiths80> hi I am not able to open the virtualbox application.Can anyone help me..gettinga a error NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
[16:29] <anygivenname> all did not return an error except the last one which is sudo..........restart
[16:30] <jags> yo
[16:30] <glebihan> anygivenname: what error did it return ?
[16:30] <anygivenname> command not found
[16:31] <jags> Im getting better with this linux stuff, so I want to get rid of my windows disk and just use it for backup, its the main disk, so im assuming the mbr is on it
[16:31] <jags> how do I remove the disk with the mbr and then boot linux and fix grub?
[16:31] <glebihan> anygivenname: what's the exact command you typed ?
[16:31] <Yugge> jags, you can fix grub via a livecd
[16:31] <undecim> jags: In Ubuntu, is your ubuntu disk "/dev/sdb"?
[16:31] <anygivenname> sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[16:32] <undecim> jags: Or I suppose it would say "/dev/sdb1" for your root partition, "/dev/sdb5" for swap, etc...
[16:32] <anygivenname> actually now...i opened the folder init.d & did not find a file called samba
[16:32] <undecim> jags: If that's the case, just run "sudo grub-install /dev/sdb" from Ubuntu before removing the windows hard drive.
[16:32] <scenox> hi, how to change the browser scroll speed?
[16:32] <undecim> jags: And also "update-grub"
[16:32] <uLinux> just opened Wine audio settings and now I don't have sound ..
[16:32] <scenox> it's a little bit slow i think
[16:33] <leshak> glebihan and oCean: this is an hard disk problem! thanks!
[16:33] <glebihan> anygivenname: run "sudo service smbd restart"
[16:33] <leshak> glebihan and oCean: in my The Planet's server.
[16:34] <anygivenname> it says: smbd start/running, process 2285
[16:34] <jags> undecim, ok cool thank you
[16:34] <anygivenname> does this mean it is working now ?
[16:34] <glebihan> anygivenname: yep
[16:35] <undecim> jags: It may still break your grub though...
[16:35] <urania> halloooooo :)
[16:35] <dominick> !hi
[16:36] <anygivenname> thanks....but i still can not paste the file remotely
[16:36] <undecim> jags: If you come up to a grub recovery screen, see if it will let you run "configfile (hd0,1)/boot/grub/grub.cfg"
[16:36] <anygivenname> does samba needs tuning ?
[16:36] <cellardoor> Guys I upgraded from a previous Ubuntu version, and I havent got my name in the top-right with the ability to click it and set up twitter etc, how do I enable it?
[16:36] <dchotas> how can I copy an hidden folder like .wine for desktop via Terminal?
[16:37] <undecim> cellardoor: Add inidicator applet to your panel.
[16:37] <undecim> jags: If it does keep you from booting, you can fix it with a livecd
[16:37] <cellardoor> undecim, not quite sure how to do that since I have macbuntu installed :L
[16:37] <undecim> cellardoor: Does macbuntu not use gnome-panel?
[16:37] <coz_> hey guys...something odd is ocurring here... when installing an application  I get a whole list of of packages  "packages were automatically installed and are no longer equired"  however  it wants to remove default applications such as inkscape on edubuntu and many default installed dependencies as well
[16:37] <st__> dchotas, type . first
[16:38] <dchotas> . first
[16:38] <cellardoor> dchotas, if you have to.. its not a good idea, run cp -r ~/.wine ~/Desktop/wine/
[16:38] <undecim> coz_: Have you removed a default package lately?
[16:38] <dominick> coz_, it generally means you have a faulty installation!
[16:38] <MM2> How I can mount lvm-volume for edit in 10.04.1 live desktop CD?
[16:38] <cellardoor> undecim, looks like it does.. how would I change it on normal gnome panel?
[16:38] <Phil_Ewert> hi, how can I add an user to a group?
[16:38] <livindaylite> Yo Yo Yo!!!

[16:39] <dominick> Phil_Ewert, adduser username groupname
[16:39] <livindaylite> people, I have a triangle with an exclamation mark in my panel!!! its screaming at me
[16:39] <cellardoor> undecim, dont have that ability :/
[16:39] <coz_> undecim,  and dominick   a few default packages  yes  but this is a clean install  and removeal of any of these packages will result in a broken system for sure
[16:39] <jags> should I worry if my main disk has a few SMART warnings, 5 Reallocated Sector count, 197 Current Pending Sector Count?
[16:39] <area51pilot> I am trying to use gxine media player to view DVD content but the player says no demuxer is present ...  what do I need to do to get gxine to play DVD's?
[16:39] <st__> Phil_Ewert, in Gnome it's
[16:39] <st__> Users and Groups in administartion menu
[16:40] <st__> why appearance settings do not work when Gnome is not running?
[16:40] <undecim> coz_: mark your edition package for explicit install. e.g. if this where kubuntu-desktop, you would run "sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop"
[16:40] <dominick> coz_, the few times I had the problem (always in a fresh install), I was sure it was the fault of the medium. Try burning another DVD/CD and installing!
[16:40] <coz_> undecim,  and on edubuntu  I have always uninstalled some default applications ...regularly  with this never ocurring before but only now with this past weeks updates
[16:41] <undecim> coz_: Maybe you were using a different package manager (software center vs aptitude, for example)
[16:41] <roffle> hi.  so i'm in grub, about to boot and press 'e' on the vista partition
[16:41] <roffle> can someone tell me what all the numbers are after search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set
[16:41] <coz_> dominick,   this was installed with the minimal install cd  ,,,the cd itself is not corrupt however some thing is up with the past weeks updates that is making this occur...it did not happen previously ...same system...same cd...same install
[16:41] <dPix> what folder is it used as default for apps?
[16:41] <regeya> st__: instead of just reading .gtkrc, gnome apps depend on a settings daemon to be running...
[16:42] <st__> how to make Ubuntu cifs work with WIndows?
[16:42] <rurufufuss> do you have to register your nick before being able to ask questions here?
[16:42] <coz_> undecim,  no that's not the case .... this is pointing to this past weeks updates  and the minimal install cd  automatically downloads current updates
[16:42] <Mthias> Hello, I've a connection problem. The place where I live recently passed from WEP to WPA, and although it works fine with my netbook, it absolutely does not with my desktop computer. Does anybody has an idea about why the same settings work differently on two computers ?
[16:42] <st__> regeya, Gnom,e apps or just all GTK apps?
[16:42] <dPix> rurufufuss, no
[16:42] <rurufufuss> thanks dPix
[16:42] <undecim> rurufufuss: No, but registering makes it convenient if you come here often.
[16:42] <dPix> rurufufuss, np
[16:42] <jags> say I want to mirror my current linux disk to a larger disk? Is this easily accomplished?
[16:42] <undecim> coz_: That's odd.
[16:42] <st__> coz_, it's usually indicates repository conflict
[16:42] <snaggle_> any suggestions for an alternative to gnome or kde?  I'm running Xubuntu desktop at the moment, which works well.  I'm aiming for speed more than anything.
[16:42] <ost2life> hello again. I've got an RF/USB remote control. it works mostly fine, however occasionally it seems to be unresponsive and then the previous (presumed unresponded) inputs all happen at once as if they're getting buffered. This doesn't happen with my USB keyboard and I was wondering if anyone here knows why it might be
[16:43] <dPix> undecim, things with folders b4 worked restarting session :)
[16:43] <coz_> st__,  well again not possible  ...since it would have to be conflicts on the sever end not this end
[16:43] <martez89> hello, my laptop speakers wont work, but when its connected to external speakers i do have sound. im on an acer aspire 5542
[16:43] <st__> jags, just copy the files and edit partition UUID in grub on target system
[16:43] <dPix> what folder is it used as default for apps?
[16:43] <st__> dPix, $HOME
[16:44] <peihua> ?
[16:44] <afeijo> I created a .bashrc at my home folder, but its not working when I log in.  What else need to be done?
[16:44] <st__> dPix, strictly saying it's CWD
[16:44] <jags> So do I need to copy them as root, or can standard su do the job?
[16:44] <undecim> dPix: Usually your home folder, but if an application is launched from another application that has changed its directory, the new application may default to that directory
[16:44] <st__> jags, su[do] is the root
[16:45] <jags> oh ok lol, I have separate passwords I thought they were like different levels of access
[16:45] <dPix> st__, cwd?
[16:45] <st__> dPix, current working directory
[16:45] <kiss> hello Im trying to put fluxbox inside gnome like in herehttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=63734
[16:46] <st__> jags, there are only 2 level of access: user and root
[16:46] <jags> oh ok
[16:46] <jags> why do i use su sometimes and the terminal tells me I need to be root
[16:46] <kiss> but it gives me a error in /usr/share/gnome/default.session .. I dont have a default.session
[16:46] <dominick> st__, wrong, There are as many levels of access as you create!
[16:46] <st__> dominick, create in what?
[16:46] <Ayrton> I'm using the ubuntu netbook remix 10.10 beta. The Files & Folders app don't working very well. They say that not exist documents, pictures, sounds and etc in my homedir, but exists. When I click in all files, it shows my download folder and my favorited directories
[16:46] <Pici> Ayrton : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Maverick/10.10 support/discussion.
[16:46] <dPix> undecim, ok, so I should uncompress any software folder there at $HOME right?
[16:47] <jags> so I su root and put in my root password and the terminal prompt changes, Is su just for single commands then, and su root changes to a root terminal?
[16:47] <Ayrton> Pici, thanks
[16:47] <st__> Ayrton, is that English ubuntu?
[16:47] <dominick> st__, its up to you. define user groups and add users to the groups. that's one way to create levels of access!
[16:47] <Pici> jags: You should be using sudo on Ubuntu.
[16:47] <rurufufuss> guys, if I have problem with nvidia's drivers, which channel could I go to?
[16:47] <Pici> !sudo > jags
[16:47] <magicianlord> rurufufuss: what is the problem
[16:47] <coz_> by the way , this is the list of packages the system wants to remove..   http://pastebin.com/EuQwvpS5   if I do that  then font rendering becomes corrupt and that is the least of the problems
[16:48] <glebihan> jags: first it  means that as some point you set a password to have access to the root user, which you shouldn't have done if you don't fully understand what it menas
[16:48] <afeijo> I created a .bashrc at my home folder, but its not working when I log in.  What else need to be done?
[16:48] <kiss> hello Im trying to put fluxbox inside gnome like in herehttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=63734
[16:48] <Ayrton> st__, english at the moment.
[16:48] <rurufufuss> magicianlord: direct rendering is off after an update to the latest driver
[16:48] <kiss> but it gives me a error in /usr/share/gnome/default.session .. I dont have a default.session
[16:48] <jags> Glebelg, yah initially I thought i needed one for root so I set one
[16:48] <rurufufuss> magicianlord: and it is rather important for my thesis work
[16:48] <st__> RH uses su. SuSE uses su. Mandriva uses su. Debian uses su. Are you claiming Ubuntu is different?
[16:48] <magicianlord> rurufufuss: what have you tried to resolve it
[16:48] <jags> my friend was telling me I can log into root and just rm the whole drive while its running?
[16:49] <jags> I sort of want to mirror the disk and try it out for kicks
[16:49] <Pici> st__: The root account is locked in Ubuntu, so yes, Ubuntu is different.
[16:49] <julianibus> i have a problems booting ubuntu after upgrade to 10.04. which channel should i go to?
[16:49] <glebihan> jags: you should never need to use su, sudo is the way you access root privilege in ubuntu
[16:49] <rurufufuss> magicianlord: I tried different drivers (the 2nd one with version number less than 100) but that didnt work
[16:49] <rurufufuss> magicianlord: was considering installing DRI, but would that change things?
[16:49] <kiss> hello Im trying to put fluxbox inside gnome like in herehttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=63734
[16:49] <kiss> but it gives me a error in /usr/share/gnome/default.session .. I dont have a default.session
[16:49] <rahulkmr> tap and drag doesn't work for me. "synclient -l" shows TapAndDragGesture = 1. My touchpad is synaptics. Everything else works - circular scroll, rt middle click, rb right click.. What shall I be checking?
[16:50] <coz_> rurufufuss,  this is nvidia ... yes?
[16:50] <magicianlord> rurufufuss: installed from repo or manually using nvidia pkg?
[16:50] <rurufufuss> coz_: yep, nvidia
[16:50] <rurufufuss> magicianlord: using envyng
[16:50] <rurufufuss> envyng 1.1.1 that is
[16:50] <Pici> st__: Take a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more info
[16:50] <st__> kiss, what yours /etc/alternatives/x-session-manager linjs to?
[16:50] <coz_> rurufufuss,  ooo  why didnt you use jokey to install the driver?
[16:50] <rurufufuss> coz_: jokey?
[16:50] <coz_> rurufufuss,  rather jockey
[16:51] <coz_> rurufufuss,   yes   system/administration/hardware drivers
[16:51] <rurufufuss> coz_: ah, is that newer than envyng?
[16:51] <st__> !pm > kiss
[16:51] <rurufufuss> coz_: I'll give that a try, thanks!
[16:51] <coz_> rurufufuss,   the nvidia_current refers to the  195.36.24 driver
[16:51] <coz_> rurufufuss,   it is working adequatley here
[16:52] <kiss> st__ I dont get it .
[16:52] <st__> Pici, LOL @ the link
[16:52] <coz_> rurufufuss,  but you may have to remove what envying   has changed as well
[16:52] <rurufufuss> coz_: looks like the one I installed was 173.14.12
[16:52] <Pici> st__: Excuse me?
[16:52] <magicianlord> rurufufuss: recommend removing all nvidia driver components, then using synaptic or jockey to install and configure.
[16:52] <coz_> rurufufuss,  I have not used envying at all so I cant help in tracking down what chanes it may have made
[16:52] <adalal> hey, anyreason why gnome's password and encryption keys cannot generate PGP keys?
[16:53] <st__> type ls -l /etc/alternatives/x-session-manager and tell what is to the right of '->'
[16:53] <coz_> rurufufuss,  and installing the official nvidia driver would mean jumping through a few hoops to get it installed on lucid
[16:53] <rurufufuss> magicianlord: I'm using 8.04, will I have to update any of the sources.list or anyting like that?
[16:53] <jags> Is there a way I can remove the root password I set earlier?
[16:53] <st__> Pici, it lists laughable arguments for non-existant problems
[16:53] <Pici> jags: sudo password -l
[16:53] <rurufufuss> coz_: lucid = ?
[16:53] <glebihan> jags: I don't think but it doesn't matter, just don't use su
[16:54] <magicianlord> rurufufuss: to get a new driver?  you'd have to update your distro. or stick with the original driver. why not update to 10.10?
[16:54] <coz_> rurufufuss,   oh you are on 8.04  mmm
[16:54] <jags> I know just that I set my root password as root lol
[16:54] <coz_> rurufufuss,  lucid is the most recent ubuntu release
[16:54] <jags> probly dumb idea
[16:54] <coz_> rurufufuss,  10.04
[16:54] <jags> I can make it more complicated I suppose
[16:54] <rurufufuss> magicianlord: I see, so I should update huh..
[16:54] <magicianlord> yes, update to 10.10
[16:54] <rurufufuss> I'll give that a go
[16:54] <rurufufuss> what's the easiest way?
[16:54] <magicianlord> good luck
[16:54] <rurufufuss> just the straight update thing on the topright bar of the screen?
[16:55] <magicianlord> back up your file, then create a usb-stick image
[16:55] <st__> how to make Ubuntu cifs to work with WIndows?
[16:55] <rurufufuss> hmm, ok, updating now then
[16:55] <magicianlord> recommend a clean install
[16:55] <rurufufuss> hmm, I have a lot of files that I need to preserve though
[16:55] <coz_> rurufufuss,  I also suggest a clean install
[16:55] <magicianlord> dl iso, create bootable usb stick, boot and install
[16:55] <coz_> rurufufuss,  do you have back up capabilities
[16:55] <Pici> rurufufuss: You cannot upgrade directly from 8.04 to 10.10. Additionally, 10.10 is still beta and may have issues, also it is not fully supported until it is released.
[16:56] <glebihan> st__: there's one important point : "sudo can be setup with a much more fine-grained security policy. "
[16:56] <rurufufuss> what about 10.04?
[16:56] <magicianlord> 10.10 is gonna be released in 2 weeks.
[16:56] <coz_> rurufufuss,  10.04 is fine
[16:56] <magicianlord> it's fine
[16:56] <rurufufuss> it says that "new distribution release 10.04 LTS is available, next to the upgrade button
[16:56] <Pici> magicianlord: No. Its not.
[16:56] <rurufufuss> that's not the clean install I'm guessing?
[16:56] <magicianlord> Pici: wut
[16:56] <coz_> rurufufuss,  it is not
[16:56] <Pici> st__: cifs works fine with Windows, Please explain to the channel what issues you're having.
[16:56] <Pici> magicianlord: mistell.
[16:56] <coz_> rurufufuss,  a clean install means downloading and burning the new disc
[16:57] <magicianlord> what are you saying, Pici
[16:57] <coz_> rurufufuss,   can you backup the files you need to save?
[16:57]  * Wolfwalker_prime walks in and curls up on the sofa.
[16:57] <Pici> magicianlord: I'm saying that I misunderstood what you said.
[16:57] <st__> cifs it doesn't, it gives authentication errors while amba works fine
[16:57] <rurufufuss> yeah, can do
[16:57] <magicianlord> ok
[16:57] <rurufufuss> can clean installs be done through USB instead?
[16:57] <rurufufuss> seems more convenient
[16:57] <magicianlord> yes
[16:57] <magicianlord> use the usb creator app
[16:57] <Wolfwalker_prime> Are there any tools already in the standard live CD that can check a hard drive for possible failure?
[16:57] <coz_> rurufufuss,  ok then when back up is completed  download either the  10.04  live cd  or the 10.04  minimal install cd
[16:57] <st__> I want cifs because I have no file manager to work with samba/gvfs
[16:57] <kerebrus> Anyone here good with grub?
[16:58] <magicianlord> just download 10.10.
[16:58] <glebihan> !anyone | kerebrus
[16:58] <coz_> rurufufuss,  burn that  after checking the mdsum  and please burn it at the lowest burn speed possible
[16:58] <magicianlord> 10.04 is outdated at this point
[16:58] <Jon--> I have a script on the desktop that runs a VLC command to help my dad play his music. He's really comp dumb - any way on making this automatically run the script and not come up with Run - Display - Run in terminal ?
[16:58] <rurufufuss> will clean installs be able to preserve old data on my drive?
[16:58] <kerebrus> glebihan becuase my question is in 3 parts and could take a bit
[16:58] <st__> magicianlord, no it's not, it's LTS
[16:58] <rurufufuss> I suppose I can just resize the old partition right?
[16:58] <coz_> rurufufuss,   no  you have to back that up on another media
[16:58] <glebihan> magicianlord: very wrong, it is the current LTS version and will be for 18 months
[16:58] <coz_> rurufufuss,  you will need a flash drive  or external hard drive or burn that data you want to save to cd or dvd
[16:59] <rurufufuss> I see
[16:59] <coz_> rurufufuss,  then reinstall...are any of those backups possible for you?
[16:59] <anygivenname> how do I delete a .conf file ?
[16:59] <magicianlord> glebihan: the components are outdated. that's a fact
[16:59] <coz_> anygivenname,   sudo rm -rf /location/of/.conf file
[16:59] <rurufufuss> coz_: yes, just trying to avoid those because I have a lot of important files throughout the drive :/
[16:59] <Wolfwalker_prime> Are there any tools already in the standard live CD that can check a hard drive for possible failure?
[16:59] <rurufufuss> coz_: but if no other option then I guess there's no choice
[16:59] <coz_> rurufufuss,  understood
[17:00] <glebihan> kerebrus: well ask your question, try not to use enter as a punctuation, and see if somebody can help you
[17:00] <rurufufuss> thanks everyone
[17:00] <coz_> rurufufuss,   i would seriously consider the major backup you suggest needs to be done...if for no other reason ..to have a backup of the files just in case
[17:00] <coz_> rurufufuss,  and I would make a habit of backing these files up as soon as new ones have been created
[17:01] <DualProxy> Does 10.4 support group passwords? I am unable to get them to work.
[17:01] <st__> what parameters should I give to cifs so it worked exactly as Samba?
[17:03] <kerebrus> My current grub setup is I have 2 hd's on different ide channels and I am wanting to change the setup, I have a windows hd and ubuntu hd, I want my ubuntu as master and my windows as slave on the same ide channel, but when I set this up my computer hangs, grub doesnt load nor does it try to intiate linux.

[17:03] <jpkeelty> Anyone have any idea how to get ununtu to boot from an EXTERNAL usb hdd on an intel imac??
[17:03]  * gukk_devel is away: Zur Zeit nicht da.
[17:03] <glebihan> kerebrus: you'll have to install grub on the new master drive, see grub-install
[17:04] <Pici> !away > gukk_devel
[17:04] <gougoutou> hi
[17:04] <st__> are there some GUI tools to edit gtkrc and fonts.conf files?
[17:04] <coz_> jpkeelty,  did you check in the bios for boot order?
[17:04] <kerebrus> glebihan the new master drive is my ubuntu hd, shouldnt it already have grub.
[17:04] <benhem> BluesKaj: well, I [re]installed the driver in windows, too, and rebooted...still no device showing in device manager
[17:05] <jpkeelty> coz_: an imac (osx) does not have bios.
[17:05] <Wolfwalker_prime> Are there any tools already in the standard live CD that can check a hard drive for possible failure?
[17:05] <benhem> BluesKaj: checked the card in the port, looks like it's bolted in, not likely to have wiggled
[17:05] <coz_> jpkeelty,   mm  then I have no suggestions...
[17:05] <glebihan> kerebrus: grub has to be installed in the MBR, which is probably not the case on your formal slave drive
[17:05] <jpkeelty> coz: thank you regardless

[17:09] <BluesKaj> benhem, check out your router wifi settings , could they be altered somehow , but that doesn't explain the lack of a wifi device either ... sorry but you may have a damaged wifi chipset
[17:09] <kiss> Wolfwalker_prime . Crunch Bang . can we use it in Gnome ?
[17:09] <jpkeelty> coz_: well the LOGIC board... does not have anything like bios... not that i've seen , there is a pre-boot loader but again nothing like the PC equivalent. With a MAC the OS is not something that is overtop the computer itself.. it IS the computer...
[17:09] <Wolfwalker_prime> coz_ this is confirmed.  Mac computers (hardware) do not have a BIOS.
[17:09] <anygivenname> it was in /etc/samba
[17:09] <jpkeelty> coz_:they are inseperable
[17:09] <coz_> Wolfwalker_prime,  ok  understood
[17:09] <st__> anygivenname, copy it from /usr/share to etc?
[17:10] <Wolfwalker_prime> kiss I was being facetious.  Crunch Bang is an OS.  Sorry.

[17:10] <coz_> greppy,  understood...and odd
[17:10] <Wolfwalker_prime> kiss it's a very good OS though, and for free I'd recommend you try it.  Try the Statler Alpha 2 version.

[17:10] <kerebrus> glebihan ok but ubuntu wont load if I switch slaves, how can I edit it to accept the new slave.
[17:10] <anygivenname> paste is dimmed
[17:10] <Wolfwalker_prime> kiss nope.  I'm your basic end-user.
[17:11] <jpkeelty> greppy:  are you using ubuntu on your internal HDD then?
[17:11] <greppy> coz_: not really, you can get EFI systems that aren't made by apple.
[17:11] <st__> anygivenname, because you're not root?

[17:11] <anygivenname> what do u mean ?
[17:11] <glebihan> kerebrus: I'd recommend using a live cd to run grub-install
[17:11] <st__> anygivenname, you cannot paste things in /etc if you're not root
[17:12] <kerebrus> glebihan will that setup the correct peramaters so I can boot from each drive?
[17:12] <maco> jpds: keepin that hat on while in the house?
[17:12] <ost2life> hello again. I've got an RF/USB remote control. it works mostly fine, however occasionally it seems to be unresponsive and then the previous (presumed unresponded) inputs all happen at once as if they're getting buffered. This doesn't happen with my USB keyboard and I was wondering if anyone here knows why it might be
[17:12] <jpkeelty> greppy: yeah i can DO that... im just having the worst time trying to get it up externally... and its insane that I CAN get windows bootable externally but NOT linux
[17:12] <anygivenname> how can I be root ?
[17:12] <maco> !root | anygivenname
[17:12] <mcawsome> how do you restore ubuntu it default settings
[17:13] <st__> anygivenname, press alt+f2 and type gksudo nautilus /etc
[17:13] <greppy> jpkeelty: I could give it a spin, I think I have an external drive I could use around here somewhere...
[17:13] <benhem> ubottu: groan
[17:13] <ost2life> mcawsome, reinstall ubuntu
[17:13] <glebihan> kerebrus: it should, you'll have to check grub's configuration though
[17:13] <ilsant0> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TggHtINGIyc&feature=player_embedded
[17:13] <mcawsome> how do you restore your system to it default settings
[17:13] <karlo94> st__, how to get out alt-F2 ?
[17:13] <kerebrus> glebihan okay thanks ill try that
[17:13] <glebihan> kerebrus: you're welcome
[17:13] <st__> mcawsome, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow -a
[17:14] <kerebrus> Im trying to setup svideo as my default output for my video card, anyone know how?
[17:14] <jpkeelty> greppy: I have managed to install it allright... and i can find instructions on how to create a bootable usb flash/thumbnail drive... surely there must be a way to get a FULL ubuntu/linux installation up?
[17:14] <mr_chris> mcawsome: Create a backup of your files you want to keep. Create a new user with admin privileges with the name temp. Log in as temp. Delete your user. Re add your user. Restore your files.
[17:15] <benhem> maybe shirley knows how to fix my wifi, too
[17:15] <mr_chris> ost2life: That's a terrible way to restore default settings. That's the windows method of doing things.
[17:15] <st__> is there a way to reduce Ubuntu size? i have barebones X+sound system but it takes 1,2 GB
[17:15] <anygivenname> i am not able to copy & paste it....what do I do ?
[17:16] <mr_chris> st_: That's actually pretty small. About the best you can do that I know of is to remove the older kernels.
[17:16] <greppy> jpkeelty: yes, I've never really tried it, as most of the time I don't want to boot from usb.  My macbook is an exception as I stuck the OSX drive into a SATA cradle that I can boot off of if I have to.
[17:16] <jpkeelty> greppy: it must be something to do with how the boot partition is created during the intstallation process...i can manually create the partitions using gparted... but then i cant seem to do the installaton (so that it works)
[17:16] <coz_> jpgnizak,  http://bindapple.com/bios-settings-on-macbook/
[17:16] <anygivenname> I pressed alt+f2 and typed gksudo nautilus /etc.....got command error
[17:16] <greppy> jpkeelty: are you trying to boot a mac off of USB?
[17:16] <coz_> jpgnizak,  sorry wrong person
[17:16] <coz_> jpkeelty, http://bindapple.com/bios-settings-on-macbook/
[17:17] <st__> anygivenname, are you kde?
[17:17] <jpkeelty> greppy: yes
[17:17] <anygivenname> i can't believe there is no copy & paste on Ubuntu
[17:17] <magicianlord> what
[17:17] <benhem> don't believe that
[17:17] <st__> anygivenname, it is but buggy
[17:17] <magicianlord> where is there no copy and paste?
[17:17] <greppy> jpkeelty: with the usb drive plugged in, when you power it up, hold down alt, that should give you a list of devices to boot from.
[17:17] <anygivenname> i am an ordinary citizen...no expert....dunno what kde is
[17:17] <obengdako> anygivenname: what copy paste are you referring to
[17:17] <jpkeelty> greppy: i want to have osx on the unternal , and 1/2 of an external usb hdd boootable to ubuntu and the other 1/2 just as storage space
[17:18] <DualProxy> Do group passwords work in 10.4?
[17:18] <coz_> jpkeelty,  apparenlty you can access the open firmware on that mac  command-option-i-f
[17:18] <benhem> anygivenname: kde is a graphical front end for the linux system
[17:18] <st__> obengdako, files in file manager
[17:18] <coz_> jpkeelty,  rather   command-option-o-f
[17:18] <glebihan> anygivenname: of course there is copy and paste...
[17:18] <jpkeelty> greppy: yea using rEFIT i can get to a boot menu... but it wont allow for boot from external.. i see the "linux" penguin as a choice.. but if selected.. it just freezes
[17:19] <obengdako> st__: but there is copy and paste there
[17:19] <st__> what parameters should I give to cifs so it worked exactly as Samba?
[17:19] <st__> is there a way to reduce Ubuntu size? i have barebones X+sound system but it takes 1,2 GB
[17:19] <magicianlord> ctrl+c = copy; ctrl+v = paste
[17:19] <ikonia> st__: just remove what you don't need
[17:19] <greppy> jpkeelty: usb or firewire?
[17:19] <anygivenname> pls help me copy & paste the file
[17:20] <magicianlord> 1.3 GB is about right for an ubuntu base install. 1-1.3 GB
[17:20] <jpkeelty> greppy: USB, previous versions of osx had to use firewire to boot.. but since the intel chips they can apparently boot from usb as well
[17:20] <benhem> st__: you have Xubuntu?
[17:20] <livindaylite> is Ubuntu repository experiencing network problems? I have a red triangle with exclamation mark on my panel
[17:20] <area51pilot> I am trying to use gxine media player to view DVD content but the player says no demuxer is present ...  what do I need to do to get gxine to play DVD's?
[17:20] <greppy> jpkeelty: yes, as long as it is usb 2.0
[17:20] <DualProxy> Is there a command to list who are group admins?
[17:20] <jpkeelty> greppy: which it is
[17:21] <st__> benhem, I have a minimal install
[17:21] <anygivenname> is there a sudo command for copy & paste ?
[17:21] <glebihan> anygivenname: what file are you trying to copy, from where and to where ?
[17:21] <bobstro> DualProxy:  you mean who is a member of admin group?
[17:21] <benhem> st__: of Xubuntu, or Ubuntu?
[17:21] <st__> anygivenname, sudo cp WHAT WHERE
[17:21] <st__> benhem, ubuntu
[17:21] <glebihan> anygivenname: sudo cp srcfilename destfilename
[17:21] <anygivenname> .conf file from /usr/share/samba to /etc/samba
[17:21] <ikonia> st__: then its up to you to remove what you don't need
[17:22] <greppy> jpkeelty: k, if you hang around here, I may take a shot at it over the next couple of days to see if I can get it installed to a USB drive here.  What Mac hardware are you trying to do this on, just curious
[17:22] <benhem> st__: ok, I think Xubuntu can save you a bit of space
[17:22] <DualProxy> bobstro: no, who are admins of a group ( have the ability to add and remove users from a group).
[17:22] <glebihan> anygivenname: sudo cp /usr/share/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba
[17:22] <magicianlord> anygivenname: it wont let you copy, because those are system files. and you need to be running as root or via sudo when executing. you can either sudo cp from terminal, or sudo nautilus from terminal to lauch the graphical file manager and then copy the files anywhere.
[17:23] <st__> DualProxy, anyone who is in sudoers file
[17:23] <Pr070cal> VLC is unable to open the MRL 'alsa:///dev/dsp is anyone having problems with vlc ?
[17:23] <jpkeelty> greppy: much appreciated... im using intel imac, dual core , 2x 2.4Mhz, 500g internal dhh
[17:23] <jpkeelty> hdd
[17:23] <pw-toxic> hi, i want to see the output of /proc/mdstat every second in my console - how can i do this?
[17:24] <jpkeelty> greppy: OSX version 10.6.4
[17:24] <bobstro> DualProxy:  /etc/group is owned and writable by root, so root or anybody who can become root. you could be more granular with sudo to allow someone to work with groups.
[17:24] <jpkeelty> greppy: 500g seagate external
[17:24] <jpkeelty> jpkeelty: 4g ram
[17:24] <st__> pw-toxic, loop with sleep 1
[17:24] <greppy> jpkeelty: that's pretty close to what my macbook is :)
[17:24] <pw-toxic> st__, and how is the terminal command for this? ;)
[17:25] <Seveas> pw-toxic, watch -n1 'cat /proc/mdstat'
[17:25] <DualProxy> bobstro: good point, I will look more in to this. Thank you.
[17:25] <pw-toxic> Seveas, thx
[17:25] <livindaylite> is Ubuntu repository experiencing network problems? I have a red triangle with exclamation mark on my panel
[17:25] <jpkeelty> greppy: cool, well if you feel inspired to try it i would be forever indebted to you. Oh and im usind rEFIT bootloader as well
[17:25] <cmyk> hey
[17:26] <greppy> jpkeelty: hrm, k, I'm just using the stock one.
[17:26] <area51pilot> I am trying to use gxine media player to view DVD content but the player says no demuxer is present ...  what do I need to do to get gxine to play DVD's?   :-D
[17:26] <cmyk> install ubuntu for netbooks as a VM. Why are apps like open office and vnc in greek? the sys lang is english
[17:26] <area51pilot> does anyone know of a good media support chanel?
[17:26] <magicianlord> area51pilot: install vlc media player and use that
[17:26] <bobstro> DualProxy:  of course, they can add themselves to groups at that point. were you trying to allow just adding to a specific group?
[17:26] <jpkeelty> greppy: well i got LESS far with the stock boot loader....  i have tried Mandriva and sabyon as well to no avail
[17:27] <area51pilot> magicianlord: does it work out of the box?
[17:27] <magicianlord> area51pilot: yes, it plays everything.
[17:27] <greppy> jpkeelty: http://refit.sourceforge.net/help/usb_disk.html
[17:27] <bobstro> magicianlord:  won't that depend on the codecs installed?
[17:27] <dPix> any good picture editor? MUST be light please not like gimp :S
[17:27] <cmyk> how can I set the language for all applications to english?
[17:28] <st__> cmyk, in gnome, administration, language
[17:28] <dPix> cmyk, go to System -> Administration -> Language Supoort
[17:28] <cmyk> i did that
[17:28] <cmyk> I think it's just buggy
[17:28] <magicianlord> bobstro: vlc comes with its own internal codecs and does not require separate ones
[17:28] <jpkeelty> greppy: yeah i HAVE seen that but not-well supported does not mean no.. lol
[17:28] <karlo> how I can get out of ctrl - alt - F2 ?? (now I am in it xD (chat with irssi))
[17:29] <cmyk> why would it be in greek? I'm in Switzerland.
[17:29] <glebihan> karlo: Ctrl+Alt+F7 or 8
[17:29] <Tyzao> hey where is the latest ubuntu OS?
[17:29] <sujiths80> how can I avoid password asking each time when I login...
[17:29] <st__> Tyzao, ubuntu.com
[17:29] <karlo94> glebihan.. tnx man!!
[17:29] <Tyzao> i tried installing before and it had some problems with my computer
[17:29] <magicianlord> sujiths80: group settings
[17:29] <glebihan> karlo: you're welcome
[17:29] <area51pilot> magicianlord: cool .... thx
[17:29] <DualProxy> bobstro: well I am reading up an group managment, and it was talking about making a non sudo user able to add users to groups that they are "admins" of. In my tests it worked, but I want to be able to moniter who has power over thoes groups.
[17:29] <dominick> sujiths80, autologin?
[17:29] <Tyzao> ok let me look
[17:29] <glebihan> sujiths80: System->Administration->Login screen
[17:30] <dPix> any good picture editor? MUST be light please not like gimp :S
[17:30] <sujiths80> after login it is asking password in desktop
[17:30] <bobstro> DualProxy:  ah, sounds like something custom. got a link?
[17:30] <Seveas> dPix, tuxpaint
[17:30] <st__> dPix, mtpaint if it's for technical graphics
[17:30] <bobstro> dPix:  gnome paint perhaps?
[17:30] <cmyk> ubuntu is fubar, at least the distro i have
[17:30] <bobstro> cmyk:  is that just an observation, or are you looking for help?
[17:30] <sujiths80> keyreg
[17:31] <st__> cmyk, i believe it's some font bug, if text is in english but written with greek letters
[17:31] <cmyk> I am trying to understand why it bugs
[17:31] <dPix> Seveas, st__ , bobstro  do you know this option of editing a picture that has Windows Vista?
[17:31] <magicianlord> cmyk: what are your bugs
[17:31] <cmyk> or wether I should report these bugs
[17:31] <Seveas> dPix, ask ##windows
[17:31] <st__> dPix, had you extracted it?
[17:31] <sunshinepants> updated to 10.10 and...
[17:31] <cmyk> as I explained: I installed the latest stable version for netbooks in a parallels vm
[17:31] <dPix> Seveas, st__ , bobstro  something like that, only simple editing, red eyes, cropping, brightness...
[17:31] <dPix> st__, extracted from win you mean?
[17:31] <sunshinepants> virtual consoles work again!
[17:32] <DualProxy> bobstro: Let me look.
[17:32] <cmyk> I'd expect it to work out of the box, no?
[17:32] <dPix> Seveas, I guess they will not speak my language there jhahaha
[17:32] <bobstro> dPix:  one of the photo viewer/album programs will probably help with that. these are just normal images, right? .jpg ?
[17:32] <st__> dPix, yes, from uxlogin.dll or whichever it is
[17:32] <dPix> bobstro, yes, thats it, something like for .jpg
[17:32] <anygivenname> when i try
[17:32] <anygivenname> sudo service smbd restart
[17:32] <anygivenname> restart: Unknown instance:
[17:32] <sujiths80> is there any download accelerator in ubuntu...like windows
[17:32] <dPix> st__, pffff must be difficult extracting that from win...
[17:32] <cmyk> instead I get garbled fonts and apps that start up in greek
[17:33] <st__> cmyk, in real greek or in transliterated english?
[17:33] <dPix> sujiths80, yes
[17:33] <cmyk> no idea.
[17:33] <dPix> sujiths80, have you tried jdownloader?
[17:33] <cmyk> I don't even read the greek alphabet
[17:33] <sujiths80> dPix can u tell me the details
[17:33] <st__> cmyk, some wench comlained about similar bug couple of years ago
[17:33] <bobstro> dPix:  f-spot will do redeye and other touchups.
[17:33] <cmyk> I'll try :)
[17:33] <st__> cmyk, *weeks
[17:33] <karlo94> how I can connect in terminal?
[17:34] <st__> karlo94, to what?
[17:34] <Tyzao> can i create the ubuntu cd using debian?
[17:34] <karlo94> to internet
[17:34] <m3asmi> any one know  Good free hosting
[17:34] <dPix> sujiths80, I use to have jDonloader @ win, Im @ ubuntu know, today I tried FreeRapid
[17:34] <glebihan> anygivenname: means the service is not running, try "sudo service smbd start"
[17:34] <st__> karlo94, ifconfig and possibly iwconfig
[17:34] <bobstro> Tyzao:  you can burn the iso image, if that's what you mean.
[17:34] <dPix> sujiths80, what do you want to download exactly?
[17:34] <karlo94> st__, gonna try..
[17:34] <dPix> bobstro, installing, thanks, Ill tell you know :D
[17:35] <cmyk> nice one huh: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/815924/Ubuntu/ubuntu_fubar.png
[17:35] <anygivenname> says: smbd start/running, process 3243
[17:35] <Tyzao> maybe the mac is easier
[17:35] <cmyk> every time I start up, it looks like this.
[17:35] <anygivenname> is it running now ?
[17:35] <glebihan> anygivenname: yes
[17:35] <glebihan> anygivenname: you can check with "sudo service smbd status"
[17:35] <bobstro> cmyk:  some of that look hebrew, i think
[17:35] <sujiths80> Dpix:normally I will download lots of movies and books...
[17:35] <cmyk> I have to go to appearance prefs and select another theme to fix it, *every time*
[17:35] <purpleposeidon> I'm having dependency problems installing apache2; I get a message "ERROR: Module reqtimeout does not exist!"
[17:35] <dPix> sujiths80, using MU and RS right?
[17:35] <st__> cmyk, it's not grrek, it's just some random boxes and litter
[17:36] <cmyk> no, I didn't mean that, it's garbled
[17:36] <sujiths80> dPix :what is that ?
[17:36] <DualProxy> bobstro: command `gpasswd -A` link:http://man.yolinux.com/cgi-bin/man2html?cgi_command=gpasswd
[17:36] <cmyk> that's neither open office nor vlc
[17:36] <dPix> all, do you know how to take out the "Mail" logo near the time @ ubuntu?
[17:36] <cmyk> why is it garbled?
[17:36] <cmyk> should it be? :)
[17:36] <dPix> sujiths80, rapidshare, megaupload...
[17:36] <sujiths80> yes
[17:37] <anygivenname> seems this samba is useless....paste is dimmed when i try to paste file thru remote sharing....although on ubutnu site they said we should use samba
[17:37] <cmyk> is ubuntu easy to use and works out of the box? i guess, they forgot the batteries.
[17:37] <cmyk> lol
[17:37] <sujiths80> and also some book sites...
[17:37] <dPix> sujiths80, then try FreeRapid: http://freerapid-downloader.sweb.cz/FreeRAPID-0.83U1.zip
[17:37] <st__> anygivenname, it depends on many factors, like mount options or user mapping...
[17:37] <patrickv> My desktop freezes up now. I had quarintined some viruses. Which clamav said were from my wife's using Firefox an college related papers.
[17:37] <carlos_> so i used chmod a=rwx Music to change the permissions of my Music folder, it said it changed, but i still cannot cd into that folder as a regular user
[17:37] <ChesterX> cmyk: ubuntu (in my opinion) the easiest linux distribution for starters. Yes you can run it in a virtual box
[17:37] <dPix> sujiths80, that is the last version, people say it is the best program for its purpose
[17:38] <sujiths80> dpix:thank you...
[17:38] <dPix> sujiths80, np ;-)
[17:38] <cmyk> it's english greek, btw: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/815924/Ubuntu/ubuntu-greek-english.png
[17:38] <patrickv> I rebooted and had an ICE authority issue and then no panel or anything on my desktop but wallpaper.
[17:38] <st__> cmyk, I must say I never saw it before, so it's uncommon, could you try some virtual machine instead of parallels?
[17:38] <anygivenname> pls make my life easier....how do I copy & paste files remotely ?
[17:38] <sujiths80> dpix:do u know any software like vmware...I want to involve in ubuntu testing
[17:38] <cmyk> well, I tell, you I didn't mess it up.
[17:38] <bobstro> DualProxy:  ah, new one on me. i'm not familiar with it at all, but it looks like standard tools.
[17:38] <st__> anygivenname, how did you mount remote share first?
[17:39] <MM2> I need a plan. I upgraded my server from 8.04 to 10.04 and it won't boot. It hangs during boot to kernel panic, it can't mount filesystem. I have a LVM-system with SATA-drives. How to find out what is wrong and how to fix it?!
[17:39] <jg47hm> guys i accidentially delete the botom panel from the desktop (which shows  the running applications) how to bring it again????
[17:39] <cmyk> Ubuntu won't take the world by storm this way.
[17:39] <glebihan> !panels | jg47hm
[17:39] <magicianlord> patrickv: what window manager
[17:39] <anygivenname> thru hostname
[17:39] <DrDamnit> is there a linux equivalent of Access that will read access databases?
[17:39] <patrickv> I got on the irc with Clamav. After two hours of tinkering removed the ICE authority issue, but couldn't bring the desktop back to like. Tried reinstalling gnome and nautilus features to no avail. Gnome panels on bottom and top just flash, and mouse freezes.
[17:39] <noisewaterphd> sujiths80: virtualbox
[17:39] <cmyk> I'll see if it's any better on a real netbook
[17:39] <carlos_> so i used chmod a=rwx Music to change the permissions of my Music folder, it said it changed, but i still cannot cd into that folder as a regular user
[17:40] <DrDamnit> is there a linux equivalent of Access that will read access databases?
[17:40] <cmyk> yuck
[17:40] <magicianlord> DrDamnit: not exactly
[17:40] <st__> DrDamnit, try mdbtools + odbc
[17:40] <DualProxy> bobstro: yeah, I believe its a comman tool, so there must be a way to list the admins of groups that you add. Guess I need to more digging. =)
[17:40] <sujiths80> I am facing some problem with virtual box...its not opening
[17:40] <carlos_> can i just not edit permissions of folders in other partitions?
[17:40] <DrDamnit> magicianlord: Is there a databasing program that we can use, and then I'll get someone in India to convert the databases?
[17:40] <magicianlord> DrDamnit: openoffice comes with a database program
[17:41] <cmyk> errm: again, how do I get rid of the friggin greek type face?
[17:41] <DrDamnit> magicianlord: oh........ duh. Thanks.
[17:41] <magicianlord> cmyk: learn greek. or change the locale
[17:41] <noisewaterphd> DrDamnit: mysql, pgsql, firebird, etc...
[17:42] <cmyk> magicianlord: wow, that's user friendly
[17:42] <magicianlord> lol relax
[17:42] <patrickv> I thought their was a command I used once to bring back my icons and desktop. I can't remember what I tried though.
[17:42] <cmyk> language & text? it's set to English
[17:42] <st__> DrDamnit, teoretically any klinux app which supoprts unixodbc shall suffice
[17:42] <DrDamnit> noisewaterphd: I am familiar with mysql (php/mysql programmer), but I have a client that wants to move off windows, but they use access as a DB. So I need the db part + the forms / reporting like access has.
[17:43] <cmyk> what else must I do? get a voodo doll and stick some needles into it?
[17:43] <st__> cmyk, stop calling that greek, it's misleading
[17:43] <cmyk> it's the greek alphabet, damnit
[17:43] <callaghan> Hello, I added Empathy to the "Startup Applications" to get online whenever I login, is there a way to start it minimised into the notification area?
[17:43] <st__> cmyk, where?
[17:43] <sunshinepants> [UNSOLVED] Enabled desktop effects with Intel GPU on 10.10
[17:43] <cmyk> st__: here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/815924/Ubuntu/ubuntu-greek-english.png
[17:43] <mzuverink> this spam bot kick off is in convenient, I vote the idiot who made it voted off the island
[17:44] <ikonia> sunshinepants: [UNSUPPORTED] try #ubuntu+1
[17:44] <magicianlord> lol
[17:44] <magicianlord> there is a command to reset the locale from terminal
[17:44] <magicianlord> there is also a setting in rc.conf
[17:44] <cmyk> nice
[17:44] <purpleposeidon> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apache2/+bug/576255  is the thing to fix it
[17:44] <st__> cmyk, yeap, but your previous screens hot shew just a garmage
[17:44] <cmyk> tell that my grandma
[17:45] <sujiths80> what is the good replacement for outlook express in Ubuntu...I am not very much intrested in evolution
[17:45] <cmyk> st__: that's the other problem
[17:45] <magicianlord> does your grandma make good cookies?
[17:45] <magicianlord> i like chocolate chip
[17:45] <greppy> cmyk: is that all of your apps and menus that are doing that?  or just vlc?
[17:45] <cmyk> I guess that's just in the netbook distro
[17:45] <st__> sujiths80, thunderbird should suffice
[17:45] <bobstro> sujiths80:  thunderbird perhaps?
[17:45] <cmyk> the garbling happens after each restart
[17:45] <magicianlord> cmyk: which version
[17:45] <sujiths80> is it better than  evolution ?
[17:45] <bobstro> cmyk:  that's not the normal result on a netbook. this is 10.04 netbook?
[17:45] <st__> sujiths80, except for message database compatibility
[17:46] <mzuverink> I have to say Sylpheed is likghter and I think better and saller than Thunderbirf
[17:46] <bobstro> sujiths80:  that's subjective. it's close to outlook express, not as feature-ful as evolution, which is more like outlook (corporate).
[17:46] <st__> sujiths80, anything including windows internet mail from windows 95 is better than evolution
[17:46] <cmyk> hold on
[17:46] <cmyk> I must say it's fast
[17:46] <cmyk> but, that's about iut
[17:46] <area51pilot> i loaded VLC media player but can not play a DVD ... what should I check?
[17:46] <bobstro> sujiths80:  i'd suggest installing a few alternatives and trying for yourself.
[17:46] <sujiths80> one more clarification...I have created some mail rules in evoltuion but now I am not able to delete it ..how to delete the rules...
[17:47] <st__> i hope when novell get sold soembody take evolution to backyard and put it off
[17:47] <patrickv> Any ideas on restoring that desktop with flashing panels and mouse? I thought there might be a script that could restore it. I tried reinstalling gnome and nautilus features.
[17:47] <bobstro> cmyk:  you're having an unusual problem. hopefully, there's a simple fix. ubuntu is quite nice on a netbook.
[17:47] <glebihan> area51pilot: did you try another DVD ?
[17:47] <ikonia> ok chaps, can we please check the /topic in here
[17:48] <area51pilot> glebihan:The DVD is a working DVD
[17:48] <area51pilot> I can play backup DVD's from my drive ... but they are also decrypted
[17:48] <st__> area51pilot, you're missing a hacking library to steal dvd content?
[17:48] <ikonia> !dvd | area51pilot
[17:48] <carlos_> does anyone know why you cant change the permission on a folder in a different partition?
[17:48] <ikonia> carlos_: what is the file system on that partition
[17:49] <st__> carlos_, because mount options override filesystem permissions
[17:49] <magicianlord> area51pilot: are you still having some problem
[17:49] <glebihan> carlos_: you can, except if it's an ntfs partition for example
[17:49] <carlos_> its my mac partition
[17:49] <Karen_m> if the DOCS say go to system->admin->printers ... and it's not there, what do I do?  All docs reference that path...
[17:49] <ikonia> carlos_: that file system is read only, that's why
[17:49] <sujiths80>  one more clarification...I have created some mail rules in evoltuion but now I am not able to delete it ..how to delete the rules...
[17:49] <patrickv> #ubuntu-us-ne
[17:49] <carlos_> but i can read wite other folders in that partition
[17:49] <carlos_> just not my Music folder in there
[17:50] <area51pilot> st__:I dont steal content .. I have kids and they are hell on a brand new DVD!
[17:50] <Karen_m> how do i setup a printer on ubuntu?
[17:50] <st__> sujiths80, try to delete whichever .folder evolution left in your home
[17:50] <area51pilot> magicianlord: yes...still have an issue
[17:50] <Injection33> karen_m, in 10.10 beta, it's system>admin>printing
[17:50] <magicianlord> you shouldnt
[17:50] <magicianlord> open dvd from the menu with vlc
[17:50] <glebihan> Karen_m: run "system-config-printer"
[17:50] <st__> area51pilot, you cannot watch DVD if you haven't paid for device you use
[17:50] <magicianlord> or open iso file from hdd
[17:50] <cmyk> bobstro: where do I find the version?
[17:50] <sujiths80> st_:but it will delete my mail also right ?
[17:50] <StaRetji> ehm, I have very strange problem in Ubuntu Lucid, can't write capital letters, shift simply doesn't help, caps lock neither :D Wtf?
[17:51] <ikonia> !wtf | StaRetji
[17:51] <mzuverink> how do you get a person in charge? whats the command
[17:51] <magicianlord> StaRetji: scr lk
[17:51] <magicianlord> or num lk
[17:51] <ikonia> mzuverink: what do you want to do ?
[17:51] <st__> sujiths80, not sure, watch for folder structure
[17:51] <Karen_m> Injection33, in ubuntu 10.04 that path does not exist.
[17:51] <mzuverink> chankd for unaffiliated to my true affiliation
[17:51] <Karen_m> Glebihan, it says it does not exist
[17:51] <Injection33> katen_m, i private messaged ou the command for run the printer config
[17:52] <bobstro> cmyk:  well... if your system were usable, it'd be easier. can you do ctrl-alt-f1 to get to a terminal (ctrl-alt-f7 or f8 to return to gui). login and try lsb_release -d. or read the cd or iso name!
[17:52] <st__> Karen_m, it's menus in top panel
[17:52] <Injection33> karen_m, type system-config-printer in the terminal
[17:52] <StaRetji> magicianlord: thx man, but it doesn't help :/
[17:52] <glebihan> Karen_m: install it : sudo apt-get install system-config-printer-gnome
[17:52] <Injection33> karen_m, make that sudo system-config-printer
[17:52] <mzuverink> ikonia, any ideas
[17:52] <ikonia> mzuverink: for what
[17:53] <ikonia> mzuverink: you've not told me what you want to do
[17:53] <Injection33> glebihan, should have it already installed
[17:53] <mzuverink> Ik
[17:53] <mzuverink> k
[17:53] <cmyk> bobstro: I downloaded:  ubuntu-10.04-netbook-i386.iso
[17:53] <mzuverink> k
[17:53] <FloodBot2> mzuverink: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:53] <magicianlord> hmm
[17:53] <Karen_m> why would it not be installed by default?  seems crazy :)   thank you, installing that
[17:53] <mzuverink> ik
[17:53] <ikonia> mzuverink: stop
[17:53] <bobstro> cmyk:  ok, that's what i've used on a dell netbook.
[17:53] <ikonia> mzuverink: please explain what you want to do
[17:53] <st__> if I purging some package, will it also delete its caches, databases etc?
[17:53] <glebihan> Injection33: sure but apparently it's not
[17:53] <cmyk> shell says the same
[17:53] <bobstro> cmyk:  did it look ok booted as a live cd?
[17:53] <ikonia> st__: should do
[17:54] <cmyk> no, wait, 10.04.1 LTS
[17:54] <area51pilot> st__: What are you talking about ... everything I possess is paid for and legal .... I am backing up DVD's I OWN on computer hardware I OWN!
[17:54] <bobstro> cmyk:  ok, that's good.
[17:54] <ikonia> !dvd | area51pilot
[17:54] <cmyk> no, it never looked okay.
[17:54] <Injection33> glebihan, system-config-printer works for me maybe system-config-printer-gnome doesnt'
[17:54] <st__> what parameters should I give to cifs so it worked exactly as Samba?
[17:54] <cmyk> I just installed it as a vm, didn't try the live cd
[17:54] <ikonia> st__: should be the same
[17:54] <st__> area51pilot, you're backing up DVD in VLC? lol
[17:55] <glebihan> Injection33: system-config-printer does not work for Karen_m
[17:55] <st__> area51pilot, you own the computer, you don't own the decoder
[17:55] <cmyk> wanted to test out acrobat reader on it. The PC version craps out on js stuff after a couple of hours run time.
[17:55] <mzuverink> ikonia, change my affiliation to the correct affiliation, and i am sorry about the flooding, blam it on my 3 year old
[17:55] <greppy> st__: I've ripped dvd's that I own using VLC, but lately I just use dd to make an iso.
[17:55] <Karen_m> I've got it installed now, it's up .. i'm just adding a new printer.. thanmk you!
[17:55] <ikonia> mzuverink: what afiiliation ?
[17:55] <bobstro> cmyk:  i use the alternative pdf viewer evince (the default).
[17:55] <glebihan> Karen_m: you're welcome
[17:55] <ikonia> mzuverink: do you mean your freenode cloak ?
[17:55] <anygivenname> software center says I have FTP client installed....how can I find it ?
[17:55] <ikonia> anygivenname: type "ftp"
[17:55] <cmyk> bobstro: does it support javascript?
[17:55] <erUSUL> anygivenname: Places>Connect to Server
[17:56] <mzuverink> currently it day unaffiliated I need uy yo say packetpenguin
[17:56] <bobstro> cmyk:  it might be worth trying the livecd just to confirm it's not something related to virtual setup. or can you boot it as livecd in your virtual setup?
[17:56] <ivan_> hi, can anyone tell me what is the most recommended video editor for ubuntu ?
[17:56] <magicianlord> greppy: what is the equivalent of dvdshrink ?
[17:56] <ikonia> mzuverink: join the channel #freenode and talk to staff
[17:56] <glebihan> anygivenname: I guess you're looking for a gui ? you can try gftp
[17:56] <bobstro> cmyk:  probably not javascript. if it did, i'd disable it!
[17:56] <greppy> magicianlord: no idea.
[17:56] <Scunizi> anygivenname: basic install has ftp client but it's cli.. if you're looking for a gui ftp client look at gftp
[17:56] <st__> nope, cifs cannot authenticate on widnows machine, but samba with same paramenters can :(
[17:56] <cmyk> haha
[17:56] <mzuverink> ok
[17:56] <area51pilot> st__: show me where I can buy one that works well under Linux and I will BUY it
[17:56] <cmyk> I need js for a welcome screen (just for the darn clock)
[17:56] <area51pilot> :P
[17:56] <magicianlord> greppy: dats wut you need, dawg
[17:57] <ikonia> try #javascript channel
[17:57] <anas_akour> hey guys anybody know how can i upgrade Empathy 2.30.2 to 2.31.90, using ubuntu 10.04
[17:57] <anygivenname> i am trying to connect remotely to ubuntu in a way that i can copy & paste files
[17:57] <bobstro> area51pilot:  st__ is being literal, and is not incorrect. however, you are hardly the only person running linux desiring to do this. just check out the urls provided and you'll be all set.
[17:57] <greppy> magicianlord: nope, dd works just fine, then I can stream the image over wifi to the PC plugged into my tv :)
[17:57] <cmyk> dude, I have no problem with js, but with ubuntu
[17:57] <anygivenname> so I thought FTP is a good channel
[17:57] <ikonia> cmyk: what's the issue with ubuntu ?
[17:57] <Scunizi> area51pilot: follow the link provided earlier for multimedia issues and it will explain in there how to get the decoder for dvd
[17:57] <magicianlord> anas_akour: cannot be done. updated to the next ubuntu, or use a rolling release.
[17:57] <bobstro> cmyk:  yes, i'm just commenting on evince capabilities.
[17:57]  * cmyk won't reapeat himself for the 3rd time
[17:57] <bobstro> cmyk:  there is an acrobat version available too.
[17:57] <magicianlord> greppy: stream over wifi???? wowowowowow
[17:57] <anas_akour> ok dude thx for answering
[17:57] <area51pilot> bobstro: thx
[17:57] <bobstro> cmyk:  but let's get your ubu working 1st
[17:57] <ikonia> cmyk: then you won't get help -
[17:58] <area51pilot> Scunizi: Thx
[17:58] <cmyk> bobstro: I have that installed of course. Works way better than on windoze
[17:58] <anygivenname> i am currently connecting to my ubuntu machine remotely & have full control except that I can not copy & paste to it
[17:58] <bobstro> ikonia:  he's getting mangled fonts installing 10.04 under parallels.
[17:58] <ivan_> hi, any good video editor recommendation?
[17:58] <Scunizi> area51pilot: np.. basically it's listing the medibuntu repos and getting libdvdcssxx
[17:58] <greppy> magicianlord: yup, works just fine :)
[17:59] <cmyk> ikonia: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/815924/Ubuntu/ubuntu_fubar.png
[17:59] <cmyk> nice, huh?
[17:59] <bobstro> cmyk:  i'm quite fond of the evince viewer, but it may lack some features.
[17:59] <sunshinepants> ivan_: i've used openshot.  it's basic but it works.
[17:59] <cmyk> vanilla install
[17:59] <lapsusbrutus> Hi guys!  Thanks to all for an wonderful OS!! Linux rock.      Ive got a problem:  Last Kernel 2.6.32-25-generic broke my fglrx.  Ive got no 2d or 3d.  Should I install radeons proprietary driver all over?  Would that be the best way to fix it?
[17:59] <cmyk> as long as it does full screen :)
[17:59] <lapsusbrutus> I use HD4850
[17:59] <bobstro> cmyk:  i'm ot at all familiar with parallels, so unsure if this is just a glitch.
[17:59] <magicianlord> lapsusbrutus: nice card
[17:59] <ikonia> cmyk: that looks like graphical mangling
[17:59] <cmyk> it very well could be
[17:59] <ikonia> cmyk: is that 10.10
[18:00] <cmyk> ikonia: 10.04.1
[18:00] <ikonia> cmyk: is it 10.10 ?
[18:00] <magicianlord> acrobat is so horrid on gun/linux
[18:00] <lapsusbrutus> :)  YEah love it.. A bit old and noisy,  but overkill for my uses :p
[18:00] <ikonia> ah, it looks like a graphical glitch rather than a font issue
[18:00] <bobstro> magicianlord:  i find evince viewer works just fine.
[18:00] <glebihan> magical: don't use it then...
[18:00] <cmyk> ikonia: it disapears if I switch themes back and forth. but it's always like this after a restart
[18:00] <st__> magicianlord, sadly evince is worse
[18:00] <glebihan> magicianlord: : don't use it then...
[18:00] <magicianlord> yes, bobstro. or xpdf
[18:00] <magicianlord> st__: at least it launches quickly
[18:00] <ikonia> cmyk: glitch then
[18:01] <cmyk> ikonia: the font issue is the other issue: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/815924/Ubuntu/ubuntu-greek-english.png
[18:01] <ikonia> cmyk: I have something similar on my intel card where the screen jumps to the left a bit, I rotate the cuve and it's back
[18:01] <magicianlord> cmyk: like green olives?
[18:01] <st__> evince had horrible time with unrecognized pdfs
[18:01] <cmyk> ikonia: I suspect it's parallels fault
[18:01] <magicianlord> unrecognized?
[18:01] <magicianlord> what does that even mean
[18:01] <st__> magicianlord, which has no decoded text
[18:01] <cmyk> hehe
[18:01] <magicianlord> no idea
[18:01] <patrickv> Does anyone have any advice on bringing back a desktop which has flashing gnome panels and mouse and no icons? I only have wallpaper.
[18:02] <magicianlord> patrickv: install openbox, tint2, conky, and nitrogen to replace gnome
[18:02] <bobstro> st__:  i've run literally gigs of pdfs through it with no problems, but i don't doubt that there may be some that cause problems. still, for 99% of what i do, it suffices.
[18:02] <cmyk> well, I will try it on real hardware tomorrow. I sure hope it's a tad better
[18:03] <bobstro> cmyk:  stick with it. i think you'll like it.
[18:03] <cmyk> i do, if I could only read it! :)
[18:03] <bobstro> cmyk:  did you enable enhanced graphics or anything of the sort?
[18:03] <anygivenname> i am connected to my ubuntu machine remotely...how can I use gFTP to transfer files to/from ?
[18:03] <bobstro> cmyk:  it was like this at initial start, right?
[18:03] <cmyk> bobstro: yep
[18:03] <patrickv> Will that bring back old desktop or bring up something else?
[18:04] <Pici> anygivenname: How are you connected to it?
[18:04] <bobstro> anygivenname:  how are you connected remotely?
[18:04] <cmyk> bobstro: I really suspect the hardware drivers (parallel tools).
[18:04] <st__> anygivenname, if ftp is setup and allowed via dfirwall
[18:04] <bobstro> cmyk:  a likely culprit!
[18:04] <cmyk> but it starts up in like 10 seconds
[18:04] <bobstro> cmyk:  i suspect you're not the first to do this though. maybe the gods of google will smile upon you.
[18:04] <anygivenname> using remote sharing thru a hostname
[18:05] <st__> cmyk, try http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads first
[18:05] <cmyk> bobstro: right. But I'll find out with the real box
[18:05] <coz_> jpgnizak, did you get that issue solved?
[18:05] <Pici> anygivenname: Can you clarify what exactly that is?
[18:05] <cmyk> st__: nice! thanks!
[18:05] <anygivenname> i have full control of the machine except a way to paste file to it
[18:06] <bobstro> anygivenname:  what is the remote sharing software you are using?
[18:06] <dougsko> anyone here successfully tether a blackberry curve through the network manager?
[18:06] <Tekk_> where are the keys for encrypted partitions kept? I'm thinkinkg about moving to another distro but I want to keep my /home
[18:07] <st__> Tekk_, decrypt it first?
[18:07] <magicianlord> how do you show the MAC address of your computer
[18:07] <uman> Hi, sound comes out of my laptop speakers even when I have headphones plugged in. I do not experience this behavior in Windows.
[18:07] <uman> Any ideas?
[18:07] <patrickv> So sudo apt-get install openbox tint2 conky nitrogen
[18:07] <st__> magicianlord, ifconfig
[18:07] <dagny_taggart> magicianlord: ifconfig
[18:07] <Tekk_> st__: no way I can just move the key?
[18:07] <greppy> magicianlord: ifconfig eth0
[18:07] <bobstro> dougsko:  i'm trying to do the same with an htc. had it working but lost the notes.
[18:08] <st__> Tekk_, which encryption is set up?
[18:08] <magicianlord> what mac address is our unique id that identifies the computer? or connection only
[18:08] <magicianlord> yes?
[18:08] <uman> magicianlord: the computer
[18:08] <greppy> magicianlord: ethernet port only
[18:08] <st__> magicianlord, 1 interface, 1 unique MAC
[18:08] <greppy> magicianlord: if you have multiple NICs you will have multiple MACs
[18:08] <magicianlord> so the computer can be found using this info
[18:09] <m3asmi> exist any "hex-viewer" in ubuntu package  to open the .DLL
[18:09] <anygivenname> bobstro, I am using ubuntu remote sharing desktop sharing
[18:09] <vithos> is the read/write benchmark in disk utility destructive?
[18:09] <magicianlord> HWaddr then
[18:09] <bobstro> magicianlord:  well, it can be changed.
[18:09] <Tekk_> st__: I used the encrypted home directory option during install and use ecryptfs-mount-private to unencrypt
[18:09] <Tekk_> dont know beyont that
[18:09] <Tekk_> beyond*
[18:09] <dougsko> bobstro: right off the bat, the box to select your device was greyed out for me, even though i had a bluetooth connection working
[18:09] <bobstro> magicianlord:  every mac address should be unique, so it can be part of forensics.
[18:09] <magicianlord> ok bobstro
[18:09] <dougsko> bobstro: freakin pain in the butt
[18:09] <magicianlord> is the mac address trasmitted over the internet
[18:10] <bobstro> dougsko:  may be completely different for yours, but i had to create a device under /dev, set up ppp to connect.
[18:10] <st__> magicianlord, no, it lives only to first router
[18:10] <bobstro> magicianlord:  probably not. they stay local to subnet.
[18:10] <greppy> magicianlord: the first 6 chars of the MAC address identify the manufacturer, I have seen some that have reused a MAC address on a device, that can be a pain.
[18:10] <moegreen> anybody got time to fix my grub..i really dont want to reinstall windows then linux again.. PM me
[18:10] <magicianlord> some internet places use your MAC address to limit internet time
[18:10] <bobstro> magicianlord:  not to say something *couldn't* transmit it, but normal ip won't send it.
[18:10] <magicianlord> so they must have access to it
[18:10] <dougsko> bobstro: ok. ive done that with a verizon phone before. i was hoping to take a nice and easy, network manager route this time
[18:11] <magicianlord> thatis a privacy violation
[18:11] <greppy> magicianlord: that's usually a local provider like a coffeeshop or hotel.
[18:11] <bobstro> magicianlord:  they are probably local... the router connecting you to the internet is suspect.
[18:11] <bobstro> dougsko:  it is wonderful using my usb modem.
[18:11] <magicianlord> what is suspect
[18:11] <st__> magicianlord, no, you must be identified in order to use service
[18:11] <bobstro> magicianlord:  well... it's sent with every packet on the local subnet, so not really a violation.
[18:11] <magicianlord> so they can then identify which website you went to, and then tie it to your computer, whether connected now or later or not at all
[18:12] <bobstro> magicianlord:  ip allows them to, but that doesn't mean they do it. so ... maybe.
[18:12] <Tekk_> st__: okay, any idea how I could decrypt it...?
[18:12] <greppy> magicianlord: your IP address will be used for that more than a MAC address, unless they go to your ISP or the coffeeshop you were using.
[18:12] <bobstro> magicianlord:  if they are at all clueful, they will have terms of service that you agree to that spell this all out.
[18:12] <dougsko> bobstro: to be honest, i dont even know if my carrier allows it. my phone has a DUN profile, but i dont think that necessarily means its possible
[18:12] <greppy> The ISP is the one that can map the MAC to an IP.
[18:12] <bobstro> magicianlord:  you agree to the ToS, they are off the hook.
[18:13] <st__> magicianlord, imagine me coming to ypur phone company, calling your name and getting your call log without identification
[18:13] <bobstro> dougsko:  does it have wifi?
[18:13] <st__> !pm > tekk_
[18:13] <bobstro> dougsko:  you've seen the software that turns phone into little hotspot?
[18:13] <st__> Tekk_, i'm checking it up
[18:13] <Tekk_> ah, okay
[18:13] <dougsko> bobstro: no my phone doesnt have wifi. though thatd be nice :/
[18:14] <magicianlord> st__: is that what they are doing then
[18:14] <bobstro> magicianlord:  how do you know they are actually capturing that info?
[18:14] <dougsko> bobstro: if i have it tethered though, technically it shouldnt be too hard to use the wifi card in my computer to do the same thing
[18:15] <mzuverink> what is the command to get an op?  Sorry off topic, desperate...
[18:15] <Tekk_> mzuverink: su
[18:15] <bobstro> dougsko:  probably. what i was hoping to do was not have to tether. just wifi connect to phone and use 3g from there.
[18:15] <Xase> mzuverink, op ???
[18:15] <jappiecr> my network connections does not show up (anymore!) in my panel, how do i activate/get to show this again?
[18:15] <magicianlord> bobstro: they cant be potentially. thats the point
[18:15] <st__> Tekk_, I believe it's stored in partition itself
[18:15] <mzuverink> As in an operator
[18:15] <Xase> What do you mean, 'get an op'
[18:15] <IdleOne> mzuverink: How can I help you?
[18:15] <halvors> Have it been released updates to maverick in the last 12 hours? I haven't god updates since past-yesterday...
[18:15] <greppy> mzuverink: a channel op?
[18:15] <AbhiJit> mzuverink, you can meet all the ubuntu channels op in #ubuntu-ops channel
[18:16] <lhavelund> mzuverink: Hi. Join us in #ubuntu-ops if you want a channel operator.
[18:16] <dougsko> bobstro: well, hey, if ya have the phone to rock that, then thatd be great
[18:16] <mzuverink> KK
[18:16] <bobstro> magicianlord:  they could, sure. you can also be observed walking on the street. i don't consider that a violation of privacy unless it's actually done though. there are tools for privacy if it really concerns you.
[18:16] <magicianlord> if you change the hwaddress/mac with ifconfig, is that valid only until the system is restarted? or does it permnaenly alter the mac address
[18:16] <magicianlord> bobstro: it's easier on the internet
[18:16] <mzuverink> join Ubuntu-opes
[18:16] <jpds> magicianlord: Until next reboot.
[18:16] <magicianlord> if people cannot do it, then you are safer
[18:16] <bobstro> dougsko:  i think you basically need to get the phone recognized as a modem.
[18:16] <magicianlord> jpds: thanks
[18:16] <greppy> magicianlord: depends on the hardware.  It is not always possible to change the MAC of a network card.
[18:16] <greppy> magicianlord: why do you want to?
[18:16] <bobstro> magicianlord:  what is easier?
[18:16] <Xase> mzuverink, type '/join #ubuntu-ops' without quotes.
[18:17] <st__> Tekk_, but I would definitely decrypt it temporarily
[18:17] <jpds> magicianlord: They can capture everything regardless of what your MAC address is.
[18:17] <Tekk_> st__: okay, how do I do that?
[18:17] <jpds> magicianlord: If you don't trust them or are just super paranoid, get off their network.
[18:17] <bobstro> magicianlord:  vmware and i assume other virtualization software creates macs for each vm, so there's nothing magical about it.
[18:18] <MM2> I need a plan. I upgraded my server from 8.04 to 10.04 and it won't boot. It hangs during boot to kernel panic, it can't mount filesystem. I have a LVM-system with SATA-drives. How to find out what is wrong and how to fix it?!
[18:18] <NilsH> Hi there, i created a folder with sudo, but i want to be accessible as normal user now, how can i do thath ?
[18:18] <dougsko> bobstro: in windows, its cake, just use the BB Desktop software. in linux, you have to manually set up a ppp dialup connection. its a huge pain to get it right the first time
[18:18] <st__> Tekk_, check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedPrivateDirectory
[18:18] <magicianlord> jpds: sometimes that is not an option
[18:18] <Tekk_> NilsH: chown [user] [dir] iirc
[18:18] <Tekk_> NilsH: may be the other way around
[18:18] <greppy> NilsH: you wan to use the chown and/or chmod commands.  "man chown" or "man chmod" in a terminal.
[18:19] <bobstro> magicianlord:  this may help - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=316126

[18:20] <Eighteens> question: how would i encrypt private messages in ubuntu irc chat, like you can in windows/mirc chat with fish. Is there a fish plugin for ubuntu/irc chat, i googled, but not having much luck
[18:21] <bobstro> Eighteens:  to protect against local sniffing, or do you want end-to-end encryption?
[18:21] <turgon> peeps[work], gnome-power-preferences
[18:21] <greppy> Eighteens: you might want to look for OTR or Off The Record
[18:21] <Eighteens> i guess a better question would be what is the best irc chat client for ubuntu
[18:21] <st__> Eighteens, there's no 'ubuntu irc chat'
[18:21] <turgon> Eighteens, xchat :P
[18:22] <peeps[work]> turgon, i tried using that, but it won't change anyting either

[18:27] <Guest16620> xangua, I already have DEB packages build on the openSuse-build service which I use for my RPMs for other distros as well
[18:27] <xangua> turgon: third partner repositories
[18:27] <Guest16620> turgon, you upload your source to it, and ppa compiles your code and hosts it

[18:29] <floating> Hello. My laptops(sotec) fans(acpi)= are not starting up, and my laptop shuts itself in some 5minutes due to overheating. Im using windows xp, and its speedfan prog cant turn it on. i wonder if I could try force the fans somehow on with linux livecd, if i boot that
[18:29] <jappiecr> glebhan: it says "An instance of nm-applet is already running.
[18:29] <jappiecr> "
[18:30] <mobasher> jappiecr: goto the shell and type ps -ef | grep nm-applet
[18:30] <glebihan> jappiecr: try "killall nm-applet" then "nm-applet"
[18:30] <Richiie> i have a question, does anyone know how to install Dm crypt for ubuntu 10.04 ?
[18:31] <Johanness> jappiecr: add notifacation area's to the panel maybe
[18:31] <floating> is there some basic linux commands to control fans, or some apps included inubuntu livecd , i could try.. to start the fans that are not getting started
[18:31] <glebihan> Johanness: he's just reset his panels, so it should be there
[18:31] <turgon> how can i completely remove a programfrom my pc? In synaptic i can selecte completely remove .. but then when i reinstall it... the config files are still there
[18:31] <Johanness> Oke
[18:32] <suprengr> jappiecr: worth a try... have only used it in 9.04/9.10 - note... not yet tried in 10.04 so backup first... http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-network-manager-applet-missing-from-notification-area-in-ubuntu-10-04.html
[18:32] <greppy> turgon: you need to purge the package.
[18:32] <Richiie> Dm crypt for ubuntu 10.04 any way to get it?
[18:32] <glebihan> turgon: the config files are installed again when you reinstall the program
[18:33] <turgon> greppy, how do i do that?
[18:33] <glebihan> greppy, turgon: complete removal in synaptic is purge
[18:33] <greppy> turgon: dpkg --purge $file is one way, from a terminal
[18:33] <turgon> glebihan, i do that... but my configs are still there?
[18:33]  * greppy is kind of terminal focused.
[18:33] <turgon> greppy, this is the equivalent to the complete removal from synaptic?
[18:33] <greppy> 99% of the *nix boxes I work on I only have a terminal
[18:33] <greppy> turgon: yes
[18:34] <Tm_T> turgon: apt won't touch user settings
[18:34] <glebihan> turgon: they're still there after uninstallation and before reinstallation ?
[18:34] <xangua> turgon: that doesn't delete the configuration files that are on your home
[18:34] <Dewayne> Ubuntu Netbook Remix on a Desktop. How can I tweak the desktop settings... example: 'Recent Files' displays way too many icons. I only want it to display 1 row of icons.
[18:34] <xangua> glebihan: the sam to you
[18:34] <xangua> same*
[18:34] <Scunizi> turgon: configs in your /home directory are not purged.. they must be manually deleted
[18:34] <turgon> xangua, that's the piont... i wana remove the configs in /home
[18:34] <etheretic> What is the best way to analyse dns problems?
[18:34] <Dr_Willis> so.. delete them. :) no need to use apt for that.
[18:34] <xangua> turgon: then search them and delete them
[18:35] <Scunizi> turgon: you can do that with the file manager (nautilus) hit CTRL+H to reveal the hidden files
[18:35] <glebihan> turgon: didn't understang it was configuration in home folder, you'll have to delete those files manually
[18:36] <turgon> Scunizi, lol.. i wont need that.. i'm using mc anyway so i c everything :P
[18:37] <Scunizi> turgon: ah.. good..
[18:37] <st__> how to tell which Xorg driver is used?
[18:37] <turgon> anyone using midnight commander?
[18:38] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  all the time.
[18:38] <sunshinepants> st__: you can do a --reinstall on the xserver-xorg-video-xxxxx which should switch X11 over
[18:38] <sunshinepants> st__: or edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf by hand
[18:38] <st__> no, i need just to know which is current one
[18:38] <turgon> Dr_Willis, gr8... i have a prob with it... it does not always highlight my files :S
[18:39] <Dr_Willis> turgon: ive never had an issue.
[18:39] <powdahound> Running into a strange issue trying to daemonize a python process on ubuntu 10.04 - can anyone take a look? http://gist.github.com/603154
[18:39] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  try it in a different terminal perhaps. xterm, or terminator, or check the TERM variable perhaps.
[18:39] <sunshinepants> st__:  your /var/log/Xorg.0.log has all that
[18:40] <Dr_Willis> grep Module /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[18:40] <Dr_Willis> or grep for 'Driver' perhaps
[18:40] <Richiie> Dmcrypt for Ubuntu 10.04 anyone knows how to install it?
[18:40] <Dr_Willis> !dmcrypt
[18:40] <Richiie> looking for Dmcrypt, dont want to use Truecrypt, can anyone help me?
[18:40] <turgon> Dr_Willis, how to i check them?
[18:41] <Dr_Willis> turgon: echo $TERM
[18:41] <turgon> Dr_Willis, i got "xterm" only

[18:43] <markvandenborre> I have problems with sound-juicer on a 10.04 lucid (upgraded from 8.04)

[18:43] <ActionParsnip> !details | markvandenborre
[18:43] <turgon> Dr_Willis, some files are highlighted.. others are not.. The unhighlighted appear with a star in from of them .. the highloghted do not
[18:43] <leeb9972> thanks folks
[18:43] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  so your term varible is set..  try mc in 'xterm' or 'rxvt' or 'terminator' see if the problem affexts them also.
[18:43] <markvandenborre> odd thing is that sound-juicer is the only app that has this problem
[18:44] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  sounds like its a mc feature if its adding a * in front for some reason.
[18:44] <leshak> how to install python2.4-gtk2?
[18:44] <turgon> i noticed that it added them only in front of old files.. not the recent files i add
[18:44] <ActionParsnip> markvandenborre: could try reinstalling the app, or maybe renaming the config folder for the app then rerunning it to get vanilla settings
[18:45] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  mine just change color from white to yellow. Never seen a *. sounds like some mc setting.
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> !info python2.4
[18:45] <leshak> Please! need from help, how to install python2.4-gtk2 ?
[18:45] <turgon> Dr_Willis, it adds it to old files not the ones i add now...
[18:45] <turgon> Dr_Willis, do u think i should try reinstall?
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> leshak: apt-cache search python | grep gtk2
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> May show it
[18:46] <turgon> Dr_Willis, in xterm.. the problem is still here
[18:46] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  reinstalling is 'windows' thinking.
[18:46] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  sounds like its some mc setting you may have enabled.
[18:46] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  you could reset your mc settings.. i think theres some .mc dir..
[18:46] <turgon> Dr_Willis, yes it is!! i'm sory for that.. only 2 month ubuntu user :P.. So let's say.. is there a way of resetting the settings?
[18:46] <turgon> Dr_Willis, yes /home/.mc
[18:47] <Dr_Willis> so delete the dir and see...
[18:47] <Dr_Willis> you may want to quit mc befor deleting that dir. :)
[18:47] <turgon> Dr_Willis, working on it
[18:47] <mobasher> leshak: there is no package python 2.4 or 2.5 in lucid..u have to download the source and compile
[18:47] <ActionParsnip> leshak: lucid comes with python 2.6.5 so you should be ok
[18:47] <turgon> Dr_Willis, nope.. no change whatsoever!
[18:48] <khider> Hello all, I have two soundcards and am trying to get Alsamixer to select it--but it keeps reverting to the card I do not want it to use. How do I select the one soundcard?
[18:48] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  no idea then.  Perhaps a check of the mc docs/homepage/forum/faq. i select files via 'insert' key and they turn yellow here.
[18:48] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  how are you seecting them?
[18:48] <khider> I type F6, select soundcard, an nvidia one--but it goes to the maudiophile
[18:48] <turgon> Dr_Willis, insert the same way u do it.. they then change color
[18:49] <st__> why ubuntu repo has no virtualbox modules?
[18:49] <Dr_Willis> !virtualbox
[18:50] <Dr_Willis> st__:  what modules are you refering to?
[18:50] <Braber01> hi I've switched form the GUI login to the login SHELL and I need help, I want to be able to use irssi with out having to leave my login shell, however my internet won't work unless i run 'startx' and enter my login password in a prompt any ideas on what could help me?
[18:50] <ActionParsnip> st__: you need to install dkms and they will be made
[18:50] <jappiecr> restarting to see if all this worked:-)
[18:50] <st__> linux guest modules
[18:50] <mobasher> st__: check in synaptic it should be there
[18:50] <kerim> hi i have 3g modem.I wonder where is conf of 3g modem and its scripts
[18:50] <khider> So I have two soundcards, when I type 'alsamixer' and f6 I can select one or the other, but it always defaults to the one I do not want it to use
[18:50] <zamba> how do i get rid of the stupid question for unlocking keyring at bootup?
[18:50] <Dr_Willis> Braber01:  you mean you are using 'wireless' internet?
[18:50] <khider> The result is no sound
[18:50] <mobasher> st__: i installed them last night check in synaptic
[18:50] <turgon> Dr_Willis, do you know where can i check my settings?
[18:50] <Dr_Willis> zamba:  set the keyring password to be empty.
[18:50] <Braber01> Dr_)Willis: yes  I am using wireless
[18:50] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  mc settings are in the .mc dir/file and check the mc menus/config feature
[18:51] <domedagen> Anyone in here wants a trail key for the native Linux game Heroes of Newerth?
[18:51] <Dr_Willis> Braber01:  you need to set wireless up some how to work at boot without network manager it seems.
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> Braber01: you can use /etc/network/interfaces to define the networking. Network manager seems to need an x server to operate wheras that file doesn't it is also DE independant :)
[18:51] <trism> Braber01: if you configured your network with network manager, you need to make sure to check the box to make it available to all users, or it won't let you connect until you log into your desktop
[18:51] <Dewayne> Can anyone help me customize Ubuntu Netbook Remix on a Desktop... example: 'Recent Files' displays way too many icons. I only want it to display 1 row of icons.
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> st__: oh you mean guest additions?
[18:51] <st__> ActionParsnip, yes
[18:51] <Dewayne> parley
[18:52] <Dr_Willis> zamba:  theres a 'passwords and encryptionkeys' tool, you use right click on the 'login' entry and change password. set it to be blank. it will ask to 'use unsafe storage' and after that it wont ask again
[18:52] <benhem> hey (again) -- went and got a belkin wireless usb adapter, got it set up per these instructions ( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=863591&highlight=belkin+n+wireless+adaptor )  -- now it lists the available networks correctly but tries to join forever
[18:52] <Braber01> trism: thank you I'm off to copy your text and e-mail it to my self
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> st__: you install them from within the vbox. There's a menu item at the top when you have the vbox system running
[18:52] <turgon> Dr_Willis, wait... does mc consider files on mounted drives differently then those on any place else than /media?
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> st__: it will download an iso from the vbox servers. You can then manually mount it and run the install script in the guest OS
[18:53] <st__> ActionParsnip, you don;t install them, you compile them so you need kernel headers and compiler and developer crap, why there are not precompiled ones in repository?
[18:53] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  theres settings mc uses to display different files differently i imagine - could be doing somthing to show permissions/ownership. ive never seen it flag a * at the front of a file and ive been using mc for years. S :)
[18:54] <ActionParsnip> st__: the guest additions are binarys afaik, the additions iso installs them for you to get sound / lan etc
[18:54] <turgon> Dr_Willis, ok.. how can i change permissions from mc?
[18:54] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  via its menus.
[18:54] <NigeyUK> hi
[18:54] <ActionParsnip> st__: i'd ask in #vbox
[18:54] <Braber01> does any body find it odd I'm on a !ubuntu channel on a !windows machine?
[18:54] <Dr_Willis> it has pulldown menus. :)
[18:54] <Dr_Willis> Braber01:  not really.
[18:54] <turgon> Dr_Willis, euh.. which one ? :S
[18:54] <NigeyUK> so am i, but it's not odd :)
[18:55] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  no idea.. explore the menus
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> st__: I've never had to compile anything for vbox using any of the guest OSes I've used
[18:55] <Daniel> how can i make a hello world in c++ and compile it?
[18:55] <Braber01> okay. just wondering it doesn't feel right using MS windows any more
[18:55] <turgon> Dr_Willis, is chmod the command to change them?
[18:55] <glebihan> Daniel: see ##linux-coders
[18:55] <Braber01> !chmod
[18:55] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  chmod changes the 'modes' on files.. chown changes the ownership.
[18:55] <Dr_Willis> !mode | turgon
[18:55] <magicialord> Braber01: yes
[18:55] <Dr_Willis> oops wrong factoid
[18:55] <Dr_Willis> !permissions
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> Daniel: install build-essential and you will have a development suite. You can then compile in command line your code
[18:55] <benhem> Daniel: or #c++
[18:56] <trism> Daniel: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/C++_Programming/Examples/Hello_world
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> Daniel: you can use any text editor to write code
[18:56] <khider> How do I select a soundcard in alsamixer?
[18:56] <Daniel> OK, Thanks!
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> Daniel: or you can use an IDE to give a gui development tool
[18:56] <arnotixe_> alsamixer -c <number>
[18:56] <Braber01> well I have a lot of studieing to do tonight about the factoids

[18:57] <ActionParsnip> Braber01: if you websearch for: ubottu factoids ,you will see a searchable page with all of her replys
[18:57] <jappiecr> Back to the network manager: 1st, thanks for helping me getting the network connection icon back to the panel! But there is something weird..
[18:58] <Pici> !brain | Braber01
[18:58] <khider> arnotixe_, magicialord , nope--does not work. It has to select harder
[18:58] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  its a mc option you enabled...  'File Highlight' has 2 check boxs
[18:58] <turgon> Dr_Willis, yes.. it's in layout.. booth are checked..
[18:58] <Braber01> ActionParsnip: Thanks I think I can rember do to that when I get home right now I'm just waiting for my soon to be gf to ride the bus home
[18:58] <st__> how to change screen resolution via terminal?
[18:58] <ActionParsnip> Pici: that works too ;)
[18:58] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  thats why its showing the * then...
[18:58] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  executables = *
[18:58] <ActionParsnip> st__: look into xrandr
[18:58] <gabrielcz> Hi all...
[18:59] <turgon> Dr_Willis, ? i but.. OWWWW.. so an mp3 file is considered as executable?
[18:59] <ActionParsnip> st__: there is an xorg.conf for virtualbox to get 124x768
[18:59] <arnotixe_> khider, harder?
[18:59] <glebihan> jappiecr: and what is weird ??
[18:59] <Braber01> I have my shell set to always show me either the @ for links the / for dirs and the * for exes
[18:59] <ActionParsnip> turgon: if its on an ntfs partition then yes
[18:59] <enzotib> st__, xrandr
[18:59] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  if the exeutable bit is set.. it dosent matter what the file is.. its 'executable'
[18:59] <osmosis> how can i figure out what package a file came from?
[19:00] <khider> arnotixe_, It is not selecting the correct card
[19:00] <st__> ehm xrandr what? it looks as the mess
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> osmosis: dpkg -S file
[19:00] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  and when mounting ntfs/vfat often EVERYTHING is set 'executable'
[19:00] <troy-> 3
[19:00] <khider> arnotixe_, When I double check, I see the wrong card selected, EACH TIME
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> st__: run: man xrandr ,you will see
[19:00] <turgon> ActionParsnip, dammm windows... yes it's ntfs... cuz i was the patition that was made when i got the laptop
[19:00] <gabrielcz> question about IPTABLES: /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT <---With this line, I ALLOW all the connections to tcp 80..  right? but, I want to open more ports on same line...  perhaps from 80 to 90 ...   How can I do that on SAME line?  any clue??
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> turgon: yep, that's why.
[19:00] <turgon> Dr_Willis, igth so can i change the bits?
[19:00] <ActionParsnip> Ntfs sucks
[19:00] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  for ntfs/vfat theres work arounds.. but its not worth the hassle i imagine.
[19:01] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  its all about the mount options used when mounting them.
[19:01] <khider> Do I have to reboot after the card is slected?
[19:01] <ActionParsnip> Dr_Willis: puzzle over eh ;)
[19:01] <turgon> Aciid, haha :D windows sucks :D ... open source isnt that strong compatibility and program wise.. but the community is awsome!!!!
[19:01] <meco> How can I find the location of a folder?
[19:01] <Dr_Willis> ActionParsnip:   I figured it was mc doing what it was supposed to do. :)
[19:01] <ActionParsnip> khider: reboots are for windows and kernel upgrades only :)
[19:01] <Dr_Willis> turgon:  tell it to not flag the files like that.. no more issue. ;)
[19:02] <khider> ActionParsnip, Experience proved otherwise
[19:02] <turgon> ActionParsnip,  puzzle??
[19:02] <glebihan> meco: what do you mean exactly ? you know its name but not where it is ?
[19:02] <Dr_Willis> bed time for me now.. bye all
[19:02] <turgon> Dr_Willis, haha... ok listen i did an automount in...dam forgot the name of file :P
[19:02] <ActionParsnip> turgon: the why is my mp3 executable puzzle
[19:02] <meco> glebihan: correct
[19:02] <arnotixe_> khider, ok what's the difference between "alsamixer -c 0" and "alsamixer -c 1" ?
[19:02] <glebihan> meco: use the find command
[19:02] <meco> ok
[19:02] <khider> I had the soundcard working after several reboots, but now lost it again
[19:03] <Braber01> um I was reading a book on all distros of linux and I can never rember the syntax for redirection to STDERR it's 1&2> right?
[19:03] <turgon> ActionParsnip, oki :P... so how can i change this?
[19:03] <glebihan> meco: find / -type d -name dirname 2>/dev/null
[19:03] <ActionParsnip> turgon: you can't really. Its ntfs being rubbish
[19:03] <st__> turgon, noexec
[19:03] <Braber01> I know another way to do it is >& but that's if your using tcsh and i'm not.
[19:03] <turgon> ActionParsnip, can't fstab do it?
[19:04] <turgon> st__, in fstab rigth?
[19:04] <st__> turgon, yes
[19:04] <VCoolio> Braber01: >/dev/null 2>&1
[19:04] <ActionParsnip> turgon: st__ seems to know a thing or 3 here :)
[19:04] <turgon> ActionParsnip, indeed :D ... give me 2 sec st__ working on it not
[19:04] <turgon> now*
[19:04] <khider> How do I SAVE the soundcard settings I want?
[19:05] <meco> glebihan: How long does it take?
[19:05] <Braber01> VCoolio wouldn't that put my text in /dev/null? I just want to redirect to stderr not to dump it into stderr.
[19:05] <Braber01> */dev/null
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> khider: could add it in a script to run at logon
[19:05] <turgon> st__, the default setting consider exec?
[19:05] <glebihan> meco: can be quite long, needs to scan all your filesystem, you can get it to do it faster if you have some idea of where the fodler is located
[19:05] <VCoolio> Braber01: sorry, thought you meant to dump all output to void
[19:06] <st__> yes I believe
[19:06] <meco> glebihan:: Well, it's a program
[19:06] <glebihan> meco: if you know it's in /home, replace / by /home in the command
[19:06] <Braber01> VCoolio it's okay we all make mistakes
[19:06] <arnotixe_> khider, oops. PCI soundcard? does it show in "lspci"?  (or if usb soundcard, in "lsusb")?
[19:06] <khider> arnotixe_, how do I get it to save?
[19:07] <meco> glebihan: It's a program I'm running, so maybe it's an easier way to find its location?
[19:07] <turgon> st__, ok.. done the change... i will reboot and try... brb :D
[19:07] <glebihan> meco: you search in /usr rather than /
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> meco: ps _ef | grep name ,may help
[19:07] <llutz> Braber01: foo >&2
[19:07] <khider> arnotixe_, It shows in Alsamixer and lspci--it is just not selecting it for some reason
[19:07] <Braber01> llutz: thanks
[19:07] <ActionParsnip> meco: the process name should show the path as well as the name
[19:08] <farhad2010> [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[19:08] <farhad2010> [][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[19:08] <ActionParsnip> khider: if you never want to use the other sound device then why not just remove it physically
[19:08] <FloodBot2> farhad2010: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:08] <khider> ActionParsnip, I need one for recording, the other for playback
[19:08] <meco> fredensborg@beboer-pc:~$ ps _ef | grep ophcrack
[19:08] <meco> ERROR: Garbage option.
[19:09] <glebihan> meco: there's also the "whereis" command that can be useful
[19:09] <glebihan> meco: ps -ef, not ps _ef
[19:09] <meco> That just gave me the name of the file without path
[19:10] <glebihan> meco: try "whereis ophcrack"
[19:10] <farhad2010> kk
[19:10] <ActionParsnip> Meco: its a minus, not an underscore
[19:10] <dagny_taggart> meco: ps aux | grep ophcrack
[19:10] <ActionParsnip> meco: ps -ef | grep cra
[19:11] <meco> I found it using the whereis command, but I found it in two locations...
[19:11]  * ActionParsnip uses the linux standard ps options ;)
[19:12] <ActionParsnip> meco: try: which ophcrack
[19:12] <farhad2010> kick me please
[19:12] <glebihan> meco: well if there are only, you should be able to check which one is the right one
[19:12] <farhad2010> kick me please
[19:13] <turgon_> st__, man it didnt work out
[19:13] <khider> how do i select a soundcard?
[19:13] <turgon_> st__, this is my fstab line:  /dev/sda3 /media/Data auto noexec 0 0
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> farhad2010: type: /exit and I will kick you
[19:13] <farhad2010> heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
[19:13] <ActionParsnip> turgon_: you want a comma between auto and noexec
[19:13] <farhad2010> ActioParsnip:You r so funny
[19:13] <benhem> #ubuntu has /n
[19:14] <magicialord> khider: F6
[19:14] <benhem> 1330 people
[19:14] <llutz> turgon_: you don't want a comma there
[19:14] <benhem> and NONE of them want to help with my wifi?
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> farhad2010: do you have an ubuntu support question?
[19:14] <st__> auto is fs type, noexec is an option
[19:14] <benhem> it is stastically unlikely!
[19:14] <turgon_> llutz, so what do i need? :S
[19:14] <ActionParsnip> benhem: I haven't seen your question, can you repost
[19:14] <turgon_> benhem, what;s ur prob? :D i might help :P
[19:14] <benhem> :D
[19:14] <llutz> turgon_: i havent read your story, what would you do, what filesystem is sda3?
[19:15] <benhem> my wifi card crapped out; i got a usb wifi widget
[19:15] <khider> magical, does not work
[19:15] <benhem> installed drivers for it via a magic tool that grabs windows .inf files
[19:15] <khider> magicialord, does not work
[19:15] <benhem> it's recognized and searches for networks and finds them, but it tries to join forever and eventually times out
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> benhem: is there no native driver?
[19:15] <turgon_> llutz, sda3 is ntfs.. i want to make it noexec so that files are not considered as executable
[19:15] <benhem> ActionParsnip: it seems not, not from the manufacturer anyway
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> benhem: manufacturers rarely make chips
[19:16] <benhem> ActionParsnip, I have lshw/iwconfig/ifconfig output if that helps
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> benhem: if you run: sudo lshw -C network ,you will see the chip
[19:16] <benhem> right
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> benhem: websearch for the product line to find guides
[19:16] <ActionParsnip> benhem: what is the product line of the wireless device?
[19:16] <llutz> turgon try "fmask=0111"
[19:17] <benhem> http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=509530
[19:17] <etheretic> Is there a way to find out whether recurrent dns problems are local or external?
[19:17] <benhem> ActionParsnip: that's the device
[19:17] <turgon_> benhem, sometimes.. below the laptop u can see the 'name' of the driver of ur wifi
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> benhem: belkin don't make chips so showing its a belkin is moot
[19:17] <benhem> oh
[19:17] <ActionParsnip> benhem: what's the chip it uses
[19:17] <turgon_> llutz, where do i put it in the line?
[19:18] <benhem> ActionParsnip: I'll try to find out.   turgon_ : it's a usb widget, not an installed card
[19:18] <TechKat> so, i've got this problem. upgraded to 10.04.1 via apt a while ago, went to use piklab today and it kinda explodes with a complaint about drkonqi not being found any time you try to read or write to the pic
[19:18] <turgon_> benhem, ow ok
[19:18] <llutz> turgon_: like: /dev/sda3       /media/Data  ntfs    rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,allow_other,umask=0000,fmask=0111 0 0
[19:18] <TechKat> i've tried reinstalling pretty much everything google informs me may be related
[19:18] <ActionParsnip> benhem: belkin buy atheros and broadcom chips and put them in their adapters, you need to know the chip. What's printed on the pretty shell doesn't change what's on the inside
[19:18] <khider> ActionParsnip, How do I get the computer to select the soundcard I want at boot?
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> benhem: its the same to linux, it doesn't matter in any way how it connects, the kernel handles all that
[19:19] <ActionParsnip> khider: I'm no use in sound issues dude. Never had an issue in my life
[19:20] <turgon_> llutz, i'll try it.. then reboot
[19:20] <llutz> turgon_: why?
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> benhem: so if you run: sudo lshw -C network ,what is the product line of the wifi??
[19:20] <turgon_> llutz, the partition is already mounted
[19:20] <benhem> oh, it's there?
[19:20] <coz_> khider,  I would ask this in both #pulseaudio and #alsa channels
[19:20] <llutz> turgon_: sudo umount /media/data && sudo mount /media/Data       after fstab-changes
[19:20] <ActionParsnip> benhem: yes, it will always identify, doesn't mean it works. What does it say?
[19:21] <turgon_> llutz, oww :P lovely :P ok.. let me check it .. 2 sce
[19:21] <ActionParsnip> benhem: I thought you said you'd ran lshw?
[19:21] <benhem>        configuration: broadcast=yes driver=ndiswrapper+net8192su driverversion=1.55+Belkin International, Inc., link=no multicast=yes wireless=IEEE 802.11g
[19:21] <benhem> description: "wireless interface"
[19:21] <ActionParsnip> benhem: no, the product line only
[19:21] <benhem> checking full lshw
[19:22] <ActionParsnip> benhem: so you didn't even read it?
[19:22] <benhem> I read the lshw, but I don't see the information you're asking for
[19:22] <ActionParsnip> benhem: find the wireless device and read the product line...
[19:22] <ActionParsnip> My guess is a realtek
[19:23] <turgon_> llutz, no chang!
[19:23] <coz_> benhem,   or do lshw  ...select all of it and paste it on pastebin.com
[19:23] <benhem> looking for text like "product," "broadcom," "atheros," "realtek" -- nothing
[19:23] <turgon_> llutz, i wrote this: /dev/sda3 /media/Data ntfs rw,fmask=011,noexec 0 0
[19:23] <khider> coz_, nobody is on that channel
[19:23] <coz_> khider,  on either one?
[19:23] <coz_> khider,  you may have to pose the question and stick around for someone to answer
[19:24] <ActionParsnip> benhem: use http://pastie.org and upload the file so we can study iit please
[19:24] <JackStoner> turgon_: dont you need to use ntfs-3g?
[19:24] <turgon_> JackStoner, what is that?
[19:24] <JackStoner> in your fstab line....
[19:24] <llutz> turgon try "fmask=0111"
[19:24] <benhem> ActionParsnip: http://paste2.org/p/1009656
[19:24] <JackStoner> you used ntfs
[19:24] <khider> coz_, for how mand days?
[19:24] <coz_> khider,  well how many days have you waited so far? :)
[19:25] <benhem> ActionParsnip: that's the output from: sudo lshw -C network
[19:25] <ActionParsnip> benhem: ok then run: lsusb ,you will see an 8 character hex id. You can search that for guides
[19:26] <khider> coz_, 2
[19:26] <coz_> khider,  I am not up on all troubleshooting for sound issues... you can open a terminal    type    alsamixer  and see if anything is muted but other than that , I would wait around in those other 2 channels I mentioned unless someone comes in here with better info
[19:26] <ActionParsnip> benhem: you may also want to disable the bad wifi device so it doesn't complicate stuff
[19:26] <benhem> it is beyond disabled already -- doesn't show up in scans, drivers disappeared
[19:26] <jappiecr> I a, running edubuntu 10.04 with ltps server setup and 2 nics.   eth0= for Internet and eth1 = for TC network (with ip range: 10.0.30.) . In my "Network Connections" it now shows the following wired connections: Ethernet automatic, ifupdown (eth1), ifupdown (eth0) and  Auto eth0 ....kind of weird right?
[19:26] <benhem> ActionParsnip: 050d:845a
[19:26] <TechKat> anyone with any suggestions?
[19:27] <turgon_> llutz, no change
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> benhem: ok, websearch for: ubuntu 050d:845a
[19:27] <turgon_> JackStoner, i replaced it with auto
[19:27] <Eighteens> question: i'm trying to enable a component called 'universe', so i type enable universe, then it tells me to "sudo apt-get install udo", but then it tells me "Couldn't find package udo"
[19:27] <JackStoner> turgon_: how does it look like?
[19:27] <turgon_> JackStoner, /dev/sda3 /media/Data auto rw,suid,noexec,auto,nouser,async,"fmask=0111" 0 0
[19:27] <benhem> ActionParsnip: this might be it http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9759001#post9759001
[19:27] <JackStoner> does it mount??
[19:27] <turgon_> JackStoner, yep
[19:27] <coz_> TechKat,  mm  not sure about that one... are all dependencies installed?
[19:27] <turgon_> JackStoner, i just mounted it then unomounted it
[19:28] <llutz> turgon_: last idea:          umask=0000,fmask=0111    without quotes!
[19:28] <JackStoner> turgon_: does it auto mount?
[19:28] <TechKat> coz_ it worked perfectly before the upgrade
[19:28] <coz_> TechKat,  did you open this via  terminal and see what erroros are listed?
[19:28] <benhem> ActionParsnip: thanks, I'll try those instructions.  hope it doesn't matter than I'm on 32 bit
[19:28] <TechKat> coz_ i've reinstalled it, all the dependencies are installed supposedly
[19:28] <TechKat> coz_ yes
[19:28] <turgon_> JackStoner, yes
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> Eighteens: sounds like you want to add the universe repo.add it in system -> software sources
[19:28] <JackStoner> nice
[19:28] <coz_> TechKat,  then I have no clue...but apparenlty some of the dependencies cannot be found
[19:29] <ActionParsnip> benhem: 32bit makes life marginally easier
[19:29] <coz_> TechKat,   sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to see if anything new is around
[19:29] <g_> hi, i have apache running, and want 2 virtual hosts, i want one for  a specific folder, and the rest to be a catchall. for the catchall  i have <virtualhost *:80>, and for the other one i have a  nameserver. the problem i have is localhost is unreliably pointing  to the right / wrong directory. what can i do abotu this?
[19:29] <TechKat> did
[19:29] <turgon_> llutz, arghh :P
[19:29] <Eighteens> is that because i am using it from live cd?
[19:29] <turgon_> llutz, nothing :(
[19:30] <turgon_> llutz,  DAMMM MAN I LOVE U :P
[19:31] <turgon_> llutz,  i forgot the 1 in the end :P... can U please tell me that do they mean?
[19:31] <JackStoner> !fstab
[19:31] <JackStoner> !fstab | turgon_
[19:31] <llutz> turgon_: man fstab     tells you
[19:31] <turgon_> JackStoner, no no i mean the umask and fmask..
[19:31] <llutz> turgon_: http://www.mjmwired.net/kernel/Documentation/filesystems/ntfs.txt
[19:32] <turgon_> llutz, i know abwt fstab.. i made it auto on my own :P but i did not know about umask and fmask :P
[19:32] <osmosis> any ways to recover a file that triggers CRC HD errors?
[19:32] <turgon_> llutz,  checking it now
[19:32] <llutz> turgon_: lines 127ff (umask, dmask, fmask)
[19:32] <turgon_> llutz,  yup
[19:33] <magicialord> why is hte system remounted read only upon shutdown?
[19:33] <magicialord> what is the purpose of this malarki
[19:33] <sedy> hi, does anybody knows why I cannot enable screen saver in kde? I apply settings but it does not save.
[19:34] <turgon_> llutz,  umask and fmask affect permission.. not exectuable bits... no?
[19:34] <llutz> turgon_: executable bit is part of the permissions (r,w,x)
[19:34] <JackStoner> sedy: have u tried to test one and see if it works?
[19:34] <mrsolo>  hmm /boot disappears when i upgrade from 2.6.15-51 to 2.6.24.-24  what could be the issue?
[19:34] <aeon-ltd> magicialord: maybe to prevent data to be written corruptly upon shutdown?
[19:34] <magicialord> sedy: are you using maverisk?
[19:34] <turgon_> llutz, ow.. x is for this? :P lol. i though it was for directory !
[19:34] <mrsolo> i tried force mount /boot but system says device is busy
[19:35] <magicialord> aeon-ltd: wut
[19:35] <Dittersdorf> Hi all. While using firestarter I noticed an open port. How do I know what program / software is using it?
[19:35] <llutz> turgon_: x = executable on files, accessible on directories
[19:35] <helper> how i can do like anything user enter inside field append @example.com  => i know this don't work but i try it $account = trim($_POST['email']@example.com);
[19:35] <sedy> JackStoner, yes i apply the settings but when i open the setting dialog again it is reset.
[19:35] <sedy> magicialord, no i'm not.
[19:36] <Dandan> Hi
[19:36] <mrsolo> hmm nm looks like everything is hidden now hmm
[19:36] <Daniel> I made my Hello World. But now, how can i make to execute this without typing the command in Terminal?
[19:37] <Dittersdorf> Hi all. While using firestarter I noticed an open port. How do I know what program / software is using it?
[19:37] <paradigm_> XUbuntu 10.4 installed on computer, having issues with hard drive.  I have booted to the Live CD and run fsck.ext3 -pfc but it has been running for over a day now
[19:37] <turgon_> llutz, igth! so umask=0000 gives rwx to everything... and fmask is for files.. but why =0111 not other values?
[19:37] <Dandan> I'm trying to use wireshark in monitor mode right, and it automatically goes back to managed, what can i do to stop this?
[19:37] <paradigm_> with tons of errors... is there any end for this in site or should i have chosen some different options?
[19:37] <JackStoner> sedy: when u select the screensaver can u click test to see if it works
[19:37] <llutz> turgon_: fmask=0111 unsets "executable" on files for owner,group,others
[19:38] <sedy> JackStoner, yes it works. i've also added widgets.
[19:38] <llutz> turgon_: so files remain 666 (rw-rw-rw)
[19:38] <llutz> turgon_: so files remain 666 (rw-rw-rw-)
[19:39] <llutz> turgon_: with only  "umask=0000" files would be 777 (rwxrwxrwx) like dirs
[19:39] <turgon_> llutz, this ( owner group and others ) was not mentioned on the page.. I checked man mount.... it did not specify this.. so how can i check it?
[19:39] <Dandan>  I'm trying to use wireshark in monitor mode right, and it automatically goes back to managed, what can i do to stop this? someone told me to disable the network manager but it will cut my wireless internet so how ?
[19:39] <turgon_> llutz,  y 666 and 777 not 888 and 999? :S
[19:39] <Daniel> helloooo?
[19:40] <llutz> turgon_: x=1, w=2, r=4 so rwx=777
[19:40] <TechKat> coz_ huzzah new error "/usr/bin/iceauth:  creating new authority file /home/kitten/.ICEauthority
[19:40] <TechKat> Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed" in addition to the "drkonqi" error
[19:40] <turgon_> llutz,  ahhhhhh :d nice! is there a tutorial on this? thus i wont bother u anymore :P
[19:41] <Phylock> is there a reason why i randomly end op in #ubuntu-unregged insted of #ubuntu when i join on connect??
[19:41] <llutz> turgon_: "man chmod" has some basics about that
[19:41] <turgon_> llutz, ok
[19:41] <Daniel> Can someone answer me?
[19:41] <llutz> rwx=7*
[19:42] <guigouz> hello. i need to run a command automatically after the login prompt, but also after metacity has been loaded (otherwise it messes with my fullscreen display), using gnome-session won't help. any ideas ?
[19:43] <paradigm_> i just got a message on the live CD that the hard drive is failing.  is there anything that can be done with fsck to correct this?  Is fsck going to work to fix this or am I wasting timme?
[19:44] <benhem> W00T.
[19:45] <turgon_> llutz, what does "others users in the file's group" mean?
[19:45] <guigouz> turgon_: users that are not the owner or into the file's group
[19:46] <turgon_> guigouz, ok
[19:46] <rusivi> Was doing a little dusting on bug 24874 and while I am not a Perl guru, it would be nice to keep the way things are but with the option to alias hostname to something 127.0.0.1
[19:47] <llutz> turgon_: maybe this helps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions
[19:47] <turgon_> llutz, rwx=7... but x = 1.. so when u say fmask=0111 u are still making it executable. no?
[19:47] <llutz> turgon_: you mix permissions and a mask. the mask unsets the bits
[19:48] <llutz> turgon_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umask
[19:49] <llutz> turgon_: principle is the same for umask/dmask/fmask
[19:49] <turgon_> llutz, alrigth.. reading all of them.. thx..
[19:49] <Ryan_Lane> What's the proper way to have a package modify iptables rules on install/remove?
[19:49] <Ryan_Lane> when making a package, that is
[19:50] <jimjimovich> what is the best way to restrict use of an application to a group of users (and assuming my users are smart and know how to Alt+F2)
[19:50] <Dandan> I'm trying to use wireshark in monitor mode right, and it automatically goes back to managed, what can i do to stop this? someone told me to disable the network manager but it will cut my wireless internet so how ?
[19:50] <erUSUL> jimjimovich: set executing bit only to the group they belong to
[19:51] <jimjimovich> erUSUL: will this get reset when apt updates that application?
[19:51] <erUSUL> jimjimovich: probably; but i dunno for sure
[19:52] <paradigm_> i just got a message on the live CD that the hard drive is failing.  is there anything that can be done with fsck to correct this?  Is fsck going to work to fix this or am I wasting time?  fsck has been running for 1.5 days w/ tons of ata3 errors dumped to consle
[19:52] <Ryan_Lane> ignore me. I can add the rules when the service starts
[19:52] <tsudot> Hey i have a question, what is the deciding factor that mprotect() uses to find out that the memory address it is setting a protection value is in its own address space?
[19:53] <erUSUL> tsudot: ##c ?
[19:53] <Dandan> I'm trying to use wireshark in monitor mode right, and it automatically goes back to managed, what can i do to stop this? someone told me to disable the network manager but it will cut my wireless internet so how ?
[19:53] <Dandan> anyone
[19:53] <Dandan> ??
[19:56] <xbonesx> GM #ubuntu
[19:57] <Johanness> Dandan: Stop network-manager
[19:57] <Dandan> but if i do that and run wireshark my wlan0 interface wont be there
[19:57] <erUSUL> Dandan: http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Documentation/iw/vif/#Monitor
[19:58] <_N3o_> ElWuilMeR, HI
[19:58] <_N3o_> whas ups
[19:58] <_N3o_> my friend
[19:58] <Dandan> let me read through this, thnxs
[19:59] <_N3o_> ElWuilMeR, ubuntu rulez
[19:59] <_N3o_> :D
[19:59] <antIP> Hi all, any suggestions for a very secure PDF reader/viewer? One that doesn't run scripts or connect to the Internet. That sort of thing.
[19:59] <_N3o_> antIP, xpdf
[19:59] <turgon_> llutz, can i change execution bits recursivly? i tried this: chmod 777 ./* it only did it for files in the folder.. noe the ones in subdirs
[20:00] <antIP> _N3o_ Thanks.
[20:00] <_N3o_> antIP, sudo apt-get install xpdf
[20:00] <deeperror> I've got ubuntu installed and configured.   I'd now like to take this installation and roll it into either a livecd, bootable cd, or a pxe image.  Any links or howto's?
[20:00] <jrib> turgon_: you would never want to do that
[20:00] <dwxreaper> is it me or is ubuntuforms and only repo search always down?
[20:00] <antIP> _N3o_ Haha, just did it.
[20:00] <turgon_> jrib, y? what if i know what's in the folder?
[20:01] <jrib> turgon_: based on what you tried.  Why exactly do you want to do this?
[20:02] <turgon_> jrib, i have a folder containing configuration for mc, mocp etc... each one contains an executable file... in the main folder is a file called 'script' that calls the files in the subdirectories... they are not executable yet.. and i dont wana do it manually!
[20:02] <llutz> turgon_: man chmod (-R)
[20:02] <jrib> turgon_: 777 is not the proper way to do that
[20:03] <JackStoner> chmod -R 700 /path/to/folder
[20:04] <diogo_79> hi
[20:04] <jrib> turgon_: if you still aren't sure what you need to do, give more details (use a pastebin if you need to)
[20:04] <diogo_79> it is possible from ubuntu mskr sn udb boot disk to install windows xp??
[20:04]  * JackStoner sleeping
[20:04] <turgon_> jrib, chmod -r 777 ./ does not work
[20:04] <turgon_> llutz,  thx again :)
[20:05] <jrib> turgon_: I just said you didn't want to do that...
[20:05] <diogo_79> it is possible from ubuntu make an usb boot disk to install a windows xp?
[20:05] <turgon_> jrib, fine :D what to do then? :)
[20:05] <jrib> turgon_: start by undoing what you did
[20:05] <turgon_> jrib done
[20:05] <diemos> So, i've setup ubuntu server 10.4, it's running its own DHCP+Bind9 server (as well as SSH for remote access), it has multiple interfaces however they don't have access to anything outside the network. Also, eth0 keeps reassigning its static given IP address to a DHCP leased IP address :(
[20:05] <jrib> turgon_: if you still aren't sure what you need to do, give more details (use a pastebin if you need to)
[20:06] <turgon_> jrib... wow!... this is messy... the subdirs are unaccessible :P so i reackon i have to use smthing else :P
[20:07] <turgon_> jrib thx :)
[20:07] <Guest39814> hello
[20:07] <Guest39814> guys do u kw how to run Cairo dock on fluxbox . coz its not in my menu :(
[20:07] <jrib> turgon_: hmm?
[20:07] <sigtermer> hi guys, does anyone know if appending binary blobs at the end of an executable is acceptable? (the type of binaries compiled for linux)
[20:07] <kiss1> guys do u kw how to run Cairo dock on fluxbox . coz its not in my menu :(
[20:07] <madjoe> how can I make my Open Office prettier?
[20:07] <turgon_> jrib i did chmod -r ./* ... the subdirectories became unaccessible :P
[20:08] <turgon_> jrib dont worry it fine :)
[20:08] <SkinWall> hi!
[20:08] <jrib> turgon_: that's not a valid command
[20:08] <jrib> turgon_: ok
[20:08] <turgon_> jrib though it worked :S
[20:08] <jrib> turgon_: oh wait it is valid.  Okay makes sense
[20:08] <llutz> jrib: its valid (unsets r)
[20:08] <doxdrum> Hi there! Is there any way of reducing the size of the windows borders?
[20:08] <turgon_> jrib, owww wait.... it made the files wx... how can i make them rwx ?
[20:08] <madjoe> is a Renaissance project a for of entire Open Office, or is it just something that could be applied to OO to improve it's GUI and usability?
[20:08] <jrib> !permissions > turgon_
[20:09] <llutz> turgon_: chmod +r
[20:09] <SkinWall> can someone tell me how to use "find" to find multiple files and move them all to a different directory in one go?
[20:09] <kiss1> guys do u kw how to run Cairo dock on fluxbox . coz its not in my menu :(
[20:09] <jrib> SkinWall: -exec
[20:09] <diemos> is there a way to stop DHCP from running on the host machine?
[20:09] <turgon_> llutz, wait... if i want it recursive it has to be chome -R or chmod -r ?
[20:09] <kiss1> guys do u kw how to run Cairo dock on fluxbox . coz its not in my menu :(
[20:09] <jrib> turgon_: -R is recursive.  You're going to break things...
[20:10] <kiss1> is anyone here can help me ?
[20:10] <turgon_> llutz, sry man... i did nt read all of it :$
[20:10] <llutz> turgon_: i suggest you spend some time for reading before messing all up :)
[20:10] <SkinWall> i tried "find . -name "*.jpg" -o -name "*.c" -exec mv '{}' /home/rage/ \; "
[20:10] <turgon_> llutz,  indeed :D
[20:10] <SkinWall> but that didn't work
[20:10] <SkinWall> :(
[20:10] <jrib> SkinWall: "didn't work" is vague
[20:11] <coolsan> kiss1: i installed cairo not in fluxbox
[20:12] <SkinWall> well it gives me random messages. sometimes it tells me "binary operator -o used without anything preceding. and sometimes, it only moves the last find.
[20:12] <kiss1> coolsan .. yea I used cairo when I ws usig gnome
[20:12] <kiss1> but now its not in the menu when I moved to fluxbox
[20:12] <MM2> I need a plan. I upgraded my server from 8.04 to 10.04 and it won't boot. It hangs during boot to kernel panic, it can't mount filesystem. I have a LVM-system with SATA-drives. How to find out what is wrong and how to fix it?!
[20:12] <jrib> !who | SkinWall
[20:12] <coolsan> kiss1: now what
[20:13] <kiss1> coolscan : I dont kw .. thats why I came here
[20:13] <SkinWall> oh crap
[20:13] <Alexia_Death> MM2: Boot from some other media and see whats going on.
[20:13] <TechKat> ok i think i have this mostly figured out
[20:13] <kiss1> maby a terminal command to run cairo ?
[20:13] <turgon_> llutz, jrib worked like a charme... Next time i will have to read carefully. Thank you guys :)
[20:13] <Pici> SkinWall: You may need to surround -name "*.jpg" with parens and you may need to ecape the parens.
[20:13] <coolsan> kiss1: ok i will try wait
[20:13] <TechKat> what would cause the parallel port to not be claimed?
[20:13] <sam555> hello all!
[20:13] <madjoe> how can I make my Open Office look a litle bit prettier? is there something like theme extensions to apply on my OO?
[20:14] <MM2> Alexia_Death, I did and it boots from live cd. But how to fix things? What if wrong?
[20:14] <coolsan> kiss1: it may be apt-get install cairo-dock
[20:14] <Alexia_Death> MM2: can you access your drives?
[20:14] <SkinWall> !Pici hokay, I'll try that out
[20:14] <SkinWall> urgh. that didn't work.
[20:14] <kiss1> dude I hage ot insatlled
[20:14] <Dandan> erUSUL: ok I done what the link you gave me said, now the new interface i created mon0 it supposed to be apearing as an interface in wireshark?
[20:15] <erUSUL> Dandan: it should yes; never tried myself though.
[20:15] <Kyle__> Question about kernel-ppa kernels... can you use a maverick kernel on lucid?
[20:16] <jrib> SkinWall: you're still being vague.  What exactly didn't work?
[20:16] <MM2> Alexia_Death, yes, with live CD
[20:16] <Dandan> hmm because its not appearing i wonder if i did it wrong i copied the examples and pasted them in a console, then i go iwconfig and the mon0 does appear to be in monitor mode but it does not appear as an interface in wireshark
[20:17] <coolsan> my wabcam is not workin in gnme
[20:17] <sam555> how does one use a printer with ubuntu 9.04 that is only for windows machines?
[20:17] <Alexia_Death> MM2: Trying to accessMM2: And not at boot? AFAIK, to boot from raids and such some stuff needs to be in intitrd.  upgrade does not remove your old kernel I think. First thingyou cand do is try to boot that.
[20:17] <NeverGone> Hello, i have a external usb keyboard with trackpoint/touchpad, i would change trackpoint speed
[20:17] <NeverGone> something idea?
[20:18] <MM2> Alexia_Death: I tried booting old kernel, same kernel panic
[20:18] <Alexia_Death> MM2: What exactly does the panic say?
[20:18] <coolsan> my wabcam is not workin in gnme :-(
[20:18] <Alexia_Death> If old kernel has the same problem, its probably a configuration issue somewhere.
[20:19] <erUSUL> Dandan: can you pass the interface name to wiresharkl in command line? « gksudo wireshark -i mon0 »
[20:19] <Incubator> hello
[20:20] <coolsan> plz help my wabcam is not workin in gnme :-(
[20:20] <MM2> Alexia_Death: Linux Kernel panic VFS unable to mount root fs
[20:20] <Incubator> i installed ubuntu 10.04 on my laptop and i can't use wifi
[20:20] <Incubator> (i'm now using my dekstop cimputer with windows)
[20:20] <Dandan> ok let me try
[20:20] <hmmm> hi
[20:21] <Kyle__> Anyone?  Anyone?
[20:21] <lucas_> have the sources of 2.6.35.5 and compiled successfully the kernel. Is it possible to apply the patch for the new 2.6.35.6 and compile only the changes?
[20:21] <hmmm> Is anyone having idea, whether we can install MPLAB in ubuntu?
[20:21] <Kyle__> sam555: Has anyone answered you yet?
[20:21] <sam555> Kyle__: no, but I think I found an answer.
[20:21] <coolsan> Incubator:  you should install wireless driver
[20:21] <Incubator> when i use the command "rfkill list"
[20:21] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: do an lspci on your laptop and tell us what brand of wifi adapter your aptop has.
[20:21] <sam555> Kyle__: i'm just going to use a printer that can handle the linux os
[20:22] <Incubator> it says that the wireless lan is hardblocked
[20:22] <Dandan> erUSUL: no it only loads wireshark but i still cant se mon0 interface
[20:22] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: do you have a wireless radio switch on your laptop?
[20:22] <bobboau> is it possible to use ubuntu one on a server, so I can share a synced folder via samba and let my windows machines have access to it?
[20:22] <snoflake> what does it mean to mark a blueprint as superseded in launchpad?
[20:22] <Kyle__> sam555: Most of the "windows" printers actually work fine in linux.  If it's USB, just plug it in, see if ubuntu sees it.
[20:22] <Incubator>  Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
[20:22] <Incubator>  Ethernet controller: Realtek Semicunductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)
[20:23] <sam555> Kyle__: didn't know that!
[20:23] <Incubator> i do have a wifi switch on my laptop but it's turned on
[20:23] <lucas_> have the sources of 2.6.35.5 and compiled successfully the kernel. Is it possible to apply the patch for the new 2.6.35.6 and compile only the changes?
[20:23] <sam555> Kyle__: I was mostly concerned with the "special" applications that come with this printer.  It's an all in one.  So people use it to scan documents.
[20:23] <turgon_> hmmm, u can try wine... but i dunno if it makes it work... Anywayy, i had a vm running on virtual box on it win xp.. i ran mplab on it
[20:23] <Kyle__> sam555: Yea.  What type of printer is it?  I used to manage a big big print-server in my old role.  I'm pretty familiar with them.
[20:23] <Kyle__> sam555: Ah.  Well, those may or may not work.  The scanning function will probably work as a generic sane scanner though.
[20:24] <SkinWall> jrib: got it to work! thanks anyway :)
[20:24] <Incubator> my laptop is hp g7070ej
[20:24] <Kyle__> sam555: It's usb or network?
[20:24] <sam555> Kyle__: usb
[20:24] <adac> I installed ubuntu on my usb stick. Now I'm on my laptop where i have wireless but it doesn't seem to have those modules for wlan installed. What package do i need to install?
[20:24] <SkinWall> aargh, why doesn't it work when i put in the nickname?
[20:24] <dwarder> i have set in my appearance settings visual effects to none, now when i switch desctops i see white flash screen before changing, can i set this "flash screen" to black? or don't have this at all?
[20:24] <coolsan> Incubator: go to system->admin->restricted hardware
[20:24] <dwarder> desktops*
[20:24] <jrib> SkinWall: ok, the original thing you pasted does work it just likely doesn't do what you want :)
[20:24] <hdgc> SkinWall:  find / -name "*.jpg" -exec mv {} /folder1/folder2/
[20:25] <Incubator> i dont have restricted hardware option
[20:25] <Kyle__> sam555: Fortune favors the brave ;)  Plug it in, see what happenes.
[20:25] <MM2> does the 10.04.1 standard kernel has LVM support?
[20:25] <Kyle__> It certainly won't hurt.
[20:25] <Incubator> and i dont have "admin", i have "administration" if thats matters
[20:25] <NeverGone> bye
[20:25] <sam555> Kyle__: indeed!
[20:25] <Kyle__> MM2: Yes, but ubuntu doesn't instal lthe LVM packages unless you installed onto an LVM partition.
[20:26] <coolsan> no
[20:26] <MM2> what then could be the problem when system does not boot after upgrading from 8.04 to 10.04.1?
[20:27] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: ITseems your card has several options for a driver
[20:27] <coolsan> Incubator: go to system->preference->main menu
[20:27] <Dandan> erUSUL: still nothing any ideas?
[20:28] <Dandan> or another way to leave monitor mode on without it going automatically to managed?
[20:28] <Incubator> coolsan - did it.
[20:28] <maedox> Any audiophiles in here? I have a few FLAC files with 24 bits per sample. How do I transcode them to 16 bits per sample? flac does nothing when I try the --bps=16 parameter. >_<
[20:28] <Incubator> alexia - what does it meen?
[20:28] <coolsan> Incubator: now go to system and add restricted hardware to administration
[20:28] <SkinWall> jrib, well, i had to "find and move" thrice to get everything. when i try to use "find" to search for multiple files and then try to move everything in one go, it only moves the last search.
[20:29] <jrib> SkinWall: use parentheses around your A -or B, like so: \( A -or B \)
[20:29] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: It means you may need to install a restricted driver as I see other kind people a trying to instruct you to do.
[20:30] <Incubator> how do i add it?
[20:30] <Incubator> i don't see it unchecked
[20:30] <Eighteens> i was trying to open a doc with open office.org in ubuntu 10.04, i just got a message "Could not set application as the default: Failed to write file '/home/ubuntu/.local/share/applications/  No space left on device" but the hd has 100+ gigs left, what do i need to do to fix this
[20:31] <biopyte> i'm running a 4x4 virtual desktop. i dont like a window partially moved across the left/right border showing up (wrapping) on the other side of the desktop. what compiz setting stops this behaviour? hopefully i expressed myself clearly.
[20:31] <tgywa> Hi
[20:31] <tgywa> how do I type greek fonts on Ubuntu?
[20:32] <coolsan> Incubator:in main menu see in left side
[20:32] <coolsan> Incubator:at last  u will find administration
[20:32] <coolsan> Incubator:click on it
[20:33] <Incubator> i deleted "administration by mistake, how do i recover it?
[20:34] <coolsan> Incubator:u should go to main menu and click on system in left side
[20:35] <Incubator> yes, i went to the main menu and i accidently deleted "administration" folder from system
[20:35] <stephen_> I'm new to ubuntu; I just installed v10.04.1 on an HP a6248x PC.  I need the DVD drivers.
[20:35] <latagore> My battery doesn't seem to display its current battery capacity
[20:36] <Incubator> now i only have preferences folder and controcenter folder unchecked
[20:36] <latagore> Incubator: Why would you do something like that
[20:36] <wazzup> is it possible to encrypt ubuntu partition but not the windows one ?
[20:36] <Seveas> stephen_, you don't need drivers for a dvd player...
[20:36] <MasterOfDisaster> hi, do-release-upgrade dies, it complains about unresolvable packet conflicts, but doesn't print which ones. Any ideas how to find out?
[20:36] <coolsan> Incubator:chek on control center
[20:37] <Incubator> i miss clicked, i tried to click properties and i clicked on delete by mistake and it didn't even gave warning message
[20:37] <latagore> Ah D:
[20:38] <Incubator> where is the control center? im really sorry about all this questions, i'm really new to ubuntu
[20:39] <stephen_> Seveas, but I can't play DVD's.  Why not?
[20:39] <Incubator> to make it easier for you, there are 2 problems:
[20:39] <Seveas> !dvd | stephen_
[20:39] <Incubator> 1. my wifi isn't working
[20:39] <Seveas> stephen_, probably because they are encrypted. The links above will help you
[20:39] <Incubator> 2. i deleted administration folder by mistake and i want to recover it to the system menu
[20:40] <latagore> BAT1 tells me my battery is not present, what do I do
[20:40] <coolsan> Incubator:ok. in main menu there is preference and control center
[20:40] <Seveas> latagore, insert battery
[20:40] <coolsan> in system
[20:40] <latagore> Seveas: I wouldn't be here if my battery wasn't inserted =_=
[20:40] <Seveas> latagore, most laptops only have 1 battery, BAT0
[20:40] <Incubator> oh ok
[20:41] <latagore> Seveas: No BAT0 directory
[20:41] <mgmuscari> is there a way to unbind the keyboard shortcuts for the indicator-applet in 10.04?
[20:41] <Incubator> ok i entered the control center
[20:41] <mgmuscari> mod+s is an important shortcut key that i use in compiz, and the indicator-applet is overriding it :/. only gripe with upgrading from 9.10 so far
[20:42] <l_> hi
[20:43] <Isonyx> Hello Everyone..
[20:43] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: Find a terminal and run jockey-gtk
[20:43] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: thats the restricted drivers manager
[20:43] <Isonyx> Could anyone assist me. I want to become a Black Hat in general...
[20:43] <Seveas> mgmuscari, looks like you need to patch the code for that
[20:44] <mgmuscari> Seveas: yeah, i found a patch... i find it pretty ridiculous that this would make it into an LTS release @_@
[20:44] <coolsan> Incubator:yeah jockey-gtk is best solution.
[20:44] <Seveas> mgmuscari, I can't say I'm impressed either :)
[20:45] <Dandan> Hello!
[20:45] <Alexia_Death> Isonyx: That takes a big brain and an asshole attitude to the world.
[20:45] <Incubator> there is an error message
[20:45] <MasterOfDisaster> do-release-upgrade dies with this: http://pastebin.com/QwzPCZbf
[20:45] <Dandan> I'm having a problem with wireshark and monitor mode some help please..
[20:45] <Isonyx> I'm currently attempting to train for Gray Hat since the extreme bad guy was never my preference.
[20:45] <Isonyx> I'm ready to learn any programming languages.
[20:45] <mgmuscari> Seveas: i use super+s for compiz grouping window selection - this is very annoying lol
[20:45] <dwarder> what CLI dictionary can i use?
[20:45] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: elaborate...
[20:45] <Pici> !ot | Isonyx
[20:45] <Seveas> Isonyx, this is an ubuntu support channel, please go elsewhere.
[20:45] <Incubator> "downloading package indexes failed, please check your network status. most drivers will not be able"
[20:46] <Pici> Alexia_Death: And please mind your language here, this is a family friendly channel.
[20:46] <Alexia_Death> Isonyx: If you want to be a hacker you need to learn all of them:P
[20:46] <Isonyx> I know some already.
[20:46] <mgmuscari> Seveas: thanks, just gonna use gnome-do for managing my session from now on :p
[20:46] <Seveas> mgmuscari, :)
[20:46] <mgmuscari> later
[20:46] <ink> What writes /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
[20:46] <Isonyx> Could anyone tell me about the standard Daemons running in the background?
[20:46] <Alexia_Death> Pici: Sorry.
[20:47] <coolsan> Incubator:you should have internet conn. to find restricted driver
[20:47] <Alexia_Death> Isonyx: ps aux
[20:47] <ink> the file claims it is written by 75-persistent-net-generator.rules, but no such file exists on my system (that i can find)
[20:47] <Seveas> ink, /lib/udev/rules.d/75-persistent-net-generator.rules
[20:47] <ink> Seveas:  thank you so much
[20:48] <Seveas> ink, the 'locate' command would have found it for you :)
[20:48] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: Live is easyer, if you connect your laptop via ethernet while configuring.
[20:48] <hmmm> hi
[20:48] <Seveas> hello
[20:48] <Isonyx> Those are the running Daemons right?
[20:48] <Isonyx> Not the standard Daemons..
[20:48] <hmmm> I installed Matlab and now i cannot see its icon on Apllication
[20:48] <hmmm> Application Menu
[20:48] <Alexia_Death> Isonyx: Eac daemon has a process, that lists current processes.
[20:49] <Incubator> i tried to connect the laptop directly to the modem without the wireless lan
[20:49] <Seveas> hmmm, then you'll need to add it yourself :)
[20:49] <Incubator> but it didn't work
[20:49]  * radioman-lt http://www.blogtalkradio.com/peter-joseph/2010/09/29/92910--peter-joseph-8-lectures-1-the-zeitgeist-movement--internal-structure-processes
[20:49] <hmmm> Seveas, How?
[20:49] <Seveas> !ops | radioman-lt spam
[20:49] <Dandan> well i im trying to leave monitor mode on without it going automatically to managed i need wireshark to be able to read all of my lan traffic
[20:49] <Alexia_Death> Isonyx: Learn basic system architecture. And C/asm and some scripting languages.
[20:50] <maco> radioman-lt: mis-paste?
[20:50] <Isonyx> May I have a list of standard processes? I want to know when I have foreign ones running.
[20:50] <Alexia_Death> Incubator: Didnt work how?
[20:50] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: I'll recommend capturing on the console with tcpdump, then view it later with wireshark
[20:51] <Alexia_Death> Incubator:  Do you need to do somethin in your wndws computer befor e you get internet, o is it plug and play?
[20:51] <Dandan> will i need to have monitor mode on?
[20:51] <yitz_> What package is netcfg part of?
[20:51] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: yes
[20:51] <Alexia_Death> yitz_: netcfg?
[20:52] <mmaksimov> Hi all. Is there an easy way to edit the labels shown in the grub menu? I mean, if there are several different *buntu flavors installed including betas it is really annoying yo remember which combination of kernel + /dev/sdaN means which system :(
[20:52] <Dandan> well thats my problem everytime i set it up network manager changes it back to managed
[20:52] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: which interface are you trying to capture from? lan? wifi?
[20:52] <Dandan> yes
[20:52] <Seveas> mmaksimov, look in /etc/grub
[20:52] <yitz_> Alexia_Death: The thing used by the debian installer that configures network stuff for installation.
[20:52] <_ikke_> Aptitude is giving error because of some weird dependency wich shouldn't exist. Somehow it thinks mysql-workbench-gpl is a depency for the fglrx packages. The status of that package is partially installed. When I try to remove it, it says something bad happened during install and then quites. Is there a way I can fix this?
[20:53] <yitz_> I'd like to redo the config so I can play with the debconf without having to do it through PXE boot
[20:53] <mmaksimov> Seveas: ...and? every update_grub invocation seems to regenerate the list of systems
[20:53] <Seveas> yitz_, it's part of debian-installer I guess
[20:53] <Dandan> MasterOfDisaster: wes i'm in wlan0
[20:54] <Seveas> mmaksimov, from files in that directory..
[20:54] <hmmm> The new skype is available for Linux?
[20:54] <hmmm> skype 5
[20:54] <Seveas> !info skype
[20:54] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: so you want to use wifi in managed mode while capturing in monitor mode?
[20:55] <Seveas> hmmm, the canonical partner repo has 2.1.0.81
[20:55] <Incubator> it just didn't recognized that im connected to the internet
[20:55] <Incubator> when im using windows i dont need to do anything
[20:55]  * yitz_ finds debconf docs
[20:55] <Seveas> yitz_, netcfg != debconf
[20:55] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: If I'm not mistaken, the card must support that.
[20:55] <Incubator> i just plug the cable and i'm connected
[20:55] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: and I
[20:55] <Dandan> no i just want to capture in monitor mode
[20:56] <sam555> what does an "unpriviledged" user mean in ubuntu?
[20:56] <yitz_> Seveas: I know. But doesn't debconf let me rerun the confugration?
[20:56] <Seveas> sam555, not root.
[20:56] <Seveas> yitz_, no.
[20:56] <hdgc> _ikke_:apt-get -f install
[20:56] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: stop networkmanager, user airmon-start, and then tcpdump
[20:56] <latagore> My battery isn't detected by Ubuntu
[20:56] <sam555> Seveas: if I want someone just to have web browser access, do I give them unpriviledged or desktop user?
[20:56] <mmaksimov> Seveas, there's only /etc/grub.d, is it the right place to look?
[20:57] <MasterOfDisaster> Dandan: when you're finished, run airmon-stop and start networkmanager again
[20:57] <Seveas> mmaksimov, yes, sorry
[20:57] <Gwar> Hi everyone. Is there any way to query (from the terminal or otherwise) what the mouse pointer position is?
[20:57] <yitz_> Pity :S
[20:57] <Seveas> sam555, neither. Both can do much more than just webbrowser. If you want a kiosk-ish system, do a kiosk-ish setup, possibly with a specialized distro
[20:57] <_ikke_> hdgc: It could not find the archive, but I'll try to manual install the .deb file and find out if it fixes the problem
[20:58] <sam555> Seveas: gotcha, thanks for the info!
[20:58] <hmmm> Me and my friends have a problem, the battery life of our Laptop reduced after we installed Linux , why?
[20:59] <ComputerJy> hmmm: what version of ubuntu are you using and what Window manager?
[20:59] <hmmm> ubuntu 9.04
[20:59] <ink> Gwar:  check out xnee
[20:59] <hmmm> ComputerJy, Ubuntu 9.04
[21:00] <ComputerJy> hmmm: why not upgrade! Ubuntu got much faster and better recently and it just keeps getting better
[21:00] <Gwar> ink: thanks, I will
[21:00] <delinquentme> does ubuntu have a native torrent program?
[21:00] <hdgc> _ikke_: dpkg --configure -a
[21:00] <routebee> i have a more general question... Google is a sudointelligence right, document recognition, similar to voice or image recognition and they have spent a ton of money on kernel development.
[21:00] <ComputerJy> delinquentme: Transmission
[21:01] <hmmm> ComputerJy, Actually now i am in 10.10 only , but battery life reduced while we were in 9.04
[21:01] <Pici> routebee: Looks like its shaping up to be a question for #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:01] <routebee> why is ubuntu called ubuntu (a man in zulu)and android android, is my ubuntu install an AI?
[21:01] <delinquentme> ComputerJy, thanks!
[21:02] <ComputerJy> hmmm batteries have a life time you know, it doesn't have to be ubuntu's fault
[21:02] <ComputerJy> delinquentme: You're welcome
[21:02] <hmmm> ComputerJy, ok
[21:02] <nogo> and i won't take any stupid laptop mode script
[21:03] <nogo> i have my own way
[21:03] <stephen_> I followed the steps at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  When I try to use Movie Player to play "Religulous" I get: "Totem was not able to play this disc.  No reason."
[21:03] <mmaksimov> Seveas, there're just numbered setup/probing scripts in there, I cannot think of an easy way of using them for inserting "human-friendly" OS name for something installed in another partition instead of the default kernel/partition combo
[21:03] <ComputerJy> hmmm you can check your laptop manufacturer for battery profiling utilities
[21:03] <gpmidi_wrk> I keep getting these errors on one of my Ubuntu 10.04 servers: http://pastebin.com/A375RH6m It happens whenever I try to run `sync` or dpkg tries to sync the disks.
[21:03] <bartmon> stephen_: Try installing VLC media player
[21:03] <linuxpoet> Is there any decent scan software for Ubuntu. The stock stuff doesn't seem to support multi-page
[21:04] <ComputerJy> stephen_ what is the file format for that file?
[21:04] <stephen_> I installed VLC media player earlier.  Do I need to remove it and reinstall it?
[21:04] <ComputerJy> stephen_ what is the file format for that file?
[21:04] <Seveas> gpmidi_wrk, time to buy a new disk
[21:04] <mmaksimov> linuxpoet: did you try xsane?
[21:04] <BluesKaj> stephen_, don't use totem...it's not a good media player
[21:04] <linuxpoet> mmaksimov: yeah that's the default
[21:04] <linuxpoet> and I can scan
[21:04] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: It's on a 12 disk RAID6 array
[21:04] <linuxpoet> just not multi-page
[21:04] <stephen_> ComputerJy I don't know; it's a commercially bought DVD.
[21:04] <ComputerJy> BlueKaj shame on you. I actually like it more thna VLC
[21:04] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: Linux software raid
[21:04] <Seveas> gpmidi_wrk, then it's a game of find the faulty disk :)
[21:05] <ComputerJy> stephen_ are you sure the DVD is not corrupted?
[21:05] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: <insert long string of profanity here>
[21:05] <Seveas> :)
[21:05] <hmmm> Hi, I installed Matlab and now i dont know where its icon lies for running it
[21:05] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: Wouldn't I be getting SCSI errors if it was a failing disk holding things up?
[21:05] <nimrod10> !matlab
[21:05] <gpmidi_wrk> timeouts and such
[21:05] <funky_karun> how to configure accurev in ubuntu?
[21:05] <ComputerJy> hmmm I'd guess in Development menu section
[21:06] <Seveas> gpmidi_wrk, I'd expect that
[21:06] <stephen_> ComputerJy, yes.  It plays in Windows on another computer.
[21:06] <ComputerJy> hmmm I'd guess in Programing menu section
[21:06] <nimrod10> ! matlab
[21:06] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: I'm not getting any of those
[21:06] <nimrod10> !apt-get
[21:06] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: hmm, my manual `sync` finished. It took 15 min, but it finished
[21:07] <spvensko_> hi, is there an easy way to check the linenumber of a grep result?
[21:07] <ComputerJy> stephen_ hmm, this is confusing. Because in any normal scenario tottem can play any DVD out of the box
[21:07] <mmaksimov> linuxpoet AFAIR there's some odd config option like setting "multipage" target than selecting file format, or maybe in reverse order.... I did scan multipage pdf-s with just LiveCD, so try digging deeper into the options....
[21:07] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: perhaps I'm just overloading the system. The load avg is up to 5.5.
[21:07] <trism> spvensko_: add -n
[21:07] <spvensko_> ty trism
[21:07] <ComputerJy> stephen_ sometimes a codec file is needed for audio encoding
[21:07] <Seveas> gpmidi_wrk, I've had it once a few months ago that the kernel was confused and actually BUGed once after giving me sync timeouts
[21:07] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: or overloading the array with random IO to be more percise
[21:07] <Seveas> reboot fixed that
[21:08] <Seveas> was on maverick though
[21:08] <ComputerJy> stephen_ Anyway, if you're using any version but 10.10 try mediabuntu for codecs
[21:08] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: I was getting this behavor yesterday. I rebooted then and the behavor has resumed after a few hours.
[21:08] <ComputerJy> stephen_ Anyway, if you're using any version but 10.10 try *medibuntu for codecs
[21:09] <suigeneris> !find libmp3lame
[21:09] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: I may just be overloading the array with random IO. 3x instances of rtorrent are running with a good 50+ very large torrents on each.
[21:10] <suigeneris> Audio LAVC, couldn't find encoder for codec libmp3lame. <--- what do I need to get? gstreamer-something?
[21:10] <Seveas> gpmidi_wrk, hmmyes, that could cause some delay
[21:10] <Seveas> 15 minuntes is excessive though
[21:10] <Seveas> which fs?
[21:10] <faceface> hello
[21:10] <faceface> how do I install a deb?
[21:10] <Seveas> faceface, a deb of what?
[21:10] <suigeneris> faceface man dpkg
[21:10] <_ikke_> dpkg -i filename
[21:10] <ComputerJy> faceface just double click it :)
[21:10] <faceface> /tmp/RealPlayer11GOLD.deb
[21:11] <Seveas> eww, realplayer
[21:11] <faceface> suigeneris ty
[21:11] <Seveas> you don't need that on Ubuntu
[21:11] <nogo> you don't need it
[21:11] <faceface> Seveas: mplayer is failing
[21:11] <ComputerJy> Seveas loooooooooooool
[21:11] <nogo> in ubuntu, vlc and mplayer can play rmvb
[21:11] <suigeneris> Audio LAVC, couldn't find encoder for codec libmp3lame. <--- what do I need to get? gstreamer-something?
[21:11] <faceface> nogo: it fails :(
[21:11] <nogo> eh? mine is ok
[21:11] <faceface> http://pastebin.com/48XKBXnk
[21:11] <stephen_> Seveas.  I am able to play the DVD now that I restarted my computer and ran VLC media player.  Thanks for the help.
[21:12] <faceface> nogo can you try that url?
[21:12] <nogo> no
[21:12] <faceface> oh
[21:12] <nogo> hehe
[21:13] <nogo> i just want to tell you ubuntu can do that
[21:13] <gpmidi_wrk> Seveas: Let me try reducing the load. I'll ping the chan again if that doesn't fix it. Thanks!
[21:13] <faceface> nogo: but it fails :(

[21:22] <hmmm> After installing updates in boot menu more and more options are coming for the same operating system
[21:23] <Seveas> faceface, then you'll need to upgrade :)
[21:23] <hmmm> how can i remove that
[21:23] <Seveas> hmmm, remove older kernels
[21:23] <faceface> Seveas: yeah...
[21:23] <faceface> will it fix it? ;-)
[21:23] <faceface> Thank you for your interest in Ubuntu 8.04 - the Hardy Heron - released in April 2008
[21:23] <Nobody_> Seveas: what is it ?
[21:23] <faceface> Don't have free diskspace for upgrade... sigh

[21:25] <jrib> ackatack: does "dotdeb" mean anything to you?

[21:25] <jrib> ackatack: right... so what do you conclude?

[21:26] <ackatack> jrib: i conclude that ubuntu wants to install a debian install package but i don't know why
[21:26] <ackatack> jrib: i've looked over my sources.list and i'm at a loss
[21:26] <jrib> ackatack: you don't have dotdeb in your sources.list?
[21:26] <Seveas> ackatack, you're using dodgy repos. Don't do that. Your system is already meesed up probably.

[21:28] <Seveas> autokill if it says more than X nicknames?
[21:28] <dagon666> Seveas: yeah but I remember that there was a small console tool which act similar to cat on doc files
[21:28] <dagon666> just can recall the name of it
[21:28] <jrib> Seveas: probably based on saying the same thing in multiple channels
[21:28] <Seveas> dagon666, yeah there is. Can't remember its name :)
[21:28] <dagon666> Seveas: :D

[21:30] <murlidhar> i messd up my sound and the sound menu indicator doesn't work on my gnome panel .............all i did was to remove the pulse audio system equilizer.
[21:31] <ackatack> jrib: how's this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/502837/
[21:31] <PsychoMario> Anyone got any recommendations for some good 3D CAD/modelling software for ubuntu?
[21:31] <murlidhar> how should i bring my sound app indicator menu working again ?
[21:31] <jrib> ackatack: so you either had dotdeb enabled at some point or installed a deb
[21:31] <Segaja> Seveas: any other ideas?
[21:31] <dagon666> VCoolio: yeah, thats the one, thanks again :)
[21:31] <Seveas> Segaja, system -> preferences -> network proxies
[21:31] <jrib> ackatack: if you had a debian repository enabled and ran an update, you should probably just reinstall as it will be much quicker
[21:31] <Seveas> did you set one there?
[21:32] <ackatack> jrib: okay, i'll admit it, i installed a dotdeb file to get GD working with PHP5 in drupal
[21:32] <Segaja> Seveas: no. i already wrote that a few minuts ago. no proxy set
[21:32] <Master> murlidhar: alsamixer, turn up the volume. Also try pavucontrol. As, perhaps a last resort you can reinstall that package :)
[21:32] <VCoolio> dagon666: no problem; it's nice with zenity textview for a nautilus right click action on a .doc
[21:32] <jrib> ackatack: if you just installed a .deb file, then downgrade it back to the version in ubuntu's repositories (gd works fine anyway doesn't it?)
[21:32] <Segaja> Seveas: ah that was an other location. no, no proxy there either
[21:33] <jsidhu> does ubuntu come with any sort of a simple benchmark utility that gives me an idea of the performance of a machine? Ive got a few systems and id like to get a "relative" idea of performance.. (cpu/mem/io..etc?
[21:33] <murlidhar> Master: the sound is working though
[21:33] <Segaja> Seveas: is it possible to see some more log output from update-notifier to see where it failes?
[21:33] <ackatack> jrib: this was a few months ago, i was having issues with GD working with the latest release of drupal at the time
[21:33] <Segaja> fails
[21:33] <VCoolio> jsidhu: conky
[21:33] <Seveas> Segaja, try /var/log/messages or other things in /var/log
[21:33] <murlidhar> Master: E: Couldn't find package alsamixer
[21:33] <jrib> ackatack: that's fine, doesn't really matter when
[21:34] <Master> murlidhar: Rightclick the menu and re-add the sound indicator ?
[21:34] <ackatack> jrib: how do I downgrade back?
[21:34] <VCoolio> jsidhu: not sure if it's what you're asking, but you can monitor cpu/mem/io with it
[21:34] <jrib> ackatack: sudo apt-get install PACKAGE=VERSION
[21:34] <Master> murlidhar: You should have that alsamixer already
[21:34] <jsidhu> no, thats not what im asking
[21:34] <Seveas> murlidhar, it's part of alsa-utils
[21:34] <Segaja> strange... i didn't change anything but it works
[21:35] <Seveas> jsidhu, top
[21:35] <jsidhu> ..come on man, top? really..
[21:35] <murlidhar> Master: i added the indicator app again but still doesn't seem to work
[21:35] <jsidhu> im looking for a benchmark utility
[21:36] <Seveas> jsidhu, benchmarks and simple don't go in the same sentence. You better just compare system specs (cpu, memory etc...)
[21:36] <Master> murlidhar: Alsa, the kernel and some drivers is what makes the sound work then pulseaudio is tacked on for a few people that want to control the sound output a bit better.
[21:36] <Segaja> Seveas: don't know why, but it works now suddenly. thanks for all the help
[21:36] <jsidhu> Seveas: that doesnt make sense
[21:36] <Master> murlidhar: Rightclick it and select sound settings ?
[21:36] <murlidhar> Master: doesn't work
[21:36] <murlidhar> Master: right clickin on it doesnt work
[21:37] <murlidhar> Master: left clicking actually.
[21:37] <Master> murlidhar: Give more output please... no popup menu that lets you select anything else ?
[21:37] <murlidhar> Master: no popup menu comes
[21:37] <Master> murlidhar: Rightclick
[21:38] <Noldorin> hello. is it possible to make icons on the ubuntu 10.04 desktop snap vertically?
[21:38] <murlidhar> right clickin shows options to move the applet or remove the applet
[21:38] <Noldorin> by default they only snap horizontall to the grid
[21:38] <Master> murlidhar: Or have you rewired the mouse-buttons ? :)
[21:38] <murlidhar> Master: nopes.
[21:38] <Master> murlidhar: KDE ?
[21:38] <murlidhar> nopes gnome
[21:38] <Master> murlidhar: I also use gnome and i have that..
[21:39] <murlidhar> Master: have what ?
[21:39] <jsidhu> ahh, lmbench should do it
[21:39] <Master> murlidhar: Rightclick.. "Silence" and "Sound settings"
[21:40] <murlidhar> Master: on mine right clicking it gives options to remove the applet from or move the applet.
[21:40] <hmmm> dagon
[21:40] <murlidhar> Master: oh and also lock to panel.
[21:40] <snake_> i'm having trouble burning audio cds with ubuntu.
[21:40] <hwg> Eh, sorry to be a bother, but I've looked everywhere. I'm having a problem viewing the TTY when via CTRL+ALT+F1, I just see a bunch of garbled colors.
[21:40] <hwg> Any idea what is causing that?
[21:40] <Master> murlidhar: Then you dont have the panel-applet i have
[21:40] <hmmm> dagon66,why u said thnx to me?
[21:41] <Master> murlidhar: You can always use pavucontrol
[21:41] <murlidhar> Master: maybe... i am using the indicator-applet
[21:41] <snake_> I'm having trouble burning audio cds with ubuntu 10
[21:41] <DudeHammer> Is there a quick way to change the visual settings for the root user to match those of the non-root user?
[21:42] <hwg> I'm having a problem viewing the TTY when via CTRL+ALT+F1, I just see a bunch of garbled colors.
[21:42] <murlidhar> Master: yes i can but i wonder why it suddenly stopped working? i can't get it back ?
[21:42] <murlidhar> Master: i can't mute now from the panel :(
[21:42] <Noldorin> hello. is it possible to make icons on the ubuntu 10.04 desktop snap vertically?
[21:42] <snake_> it appears to not even mount the disk..
[21:43] <hwg> I'm having a problem viewing the TTY when going via CTRL+ALT+F1, I just see a bunch of garbled colors.
[21:43] <hwg> Any ideas?
[21:43] <Master> My applet (The default one) launches -> gnome-volume-control
[21:43] <snake_> !spam hwg
[21:43] <Master> murlidhar..^^^
[21:43] <snake_> ugh
[21:43] <hwg> 'Scuse me?
[21:43] <hdgc> snake_: what problems exactly...
[21:44] <snake_> your repeating the same thing over and over agian.
[21:44] <snake_> oh
[21:44] <hwg> And this is what?
[21:44] <LjL> !repeat | hwg i assume this is what he meant
[21:44] <hwg> A support channel?
[21:44] <stryker-v> people, how to automate entering password procedure for wi-fi when ubuntu booted ?
[21:44] <snake_> hdgc, i am trying to burn an audio cd. it doesn't want to recognize the disk.
[21:44] <subsume> /etc/network/interfaces/
[21:44] <LjL> stryker-v: use the same password for your wallet as for the login
[21:45] <hwg> Is there a way to change the TTY resolution perhaps?
[21:45] <murlidhar> Master: yes mine too ....indicator-applet uses the gnome-volume-control
[21:45] <murlidhar> Master:
[21:45] <murlidhar> Master:
[21:45] <VCoolio> hwg: yes, at the end of the kernel line that grub boots, add vga=code where code reflects your resolution and color depth
[21:45] <murlidhar> oopz
[21:45] <FloodBot4> murlidhar: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:46] <Master> murlidhar: So i guess you can control the sound as wanted now ?
[21:46] <murlidhar> Master: ** (gnome-volume-control:11760:( WARNING **: Connection failed, reconnecting...
[21:46] <hwg> Ok... VCoolio, would that only affect me at startup or would that carry over?
[21:46] <hdgc> hwg: maybe  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[21:46] <VCoolio> hwg: only on startup and in tty
[21:46] <usuario> hola
[21:46] <hwg> ok
[21:47] <Master> murlidhar: Aha, well... maybe its compiled against (requires) the thing you removed ?
[21:47] <wjlroe> Hi, I can't get X working on my Vaio - 1366x768 display and Intel HD graphics. I've tried setting i915.modeset=0 and that doesn't work
[21:47] <murlidhar> Master: jeez. now what ?
[21:47] <VCoolio> hwg: codes for example here http://gionn.net/grub-vga-resolution-table.html
[21:47] <hwg> I know the vga tables :P
[21:47] <hwg> Thanks though.
[21:47] <Master> murlidhar: What did you remove ? ... Add it again
[21:47] <snake_> hdgc, when i put my disc in it doesn't ask me anything. so i tried to do it myself. i opened brasero cd burner. but it can't recognize my disc
[21:47] <ackatack> jrib: that worked, i've downgraded several other packages that came up in the dependency list
[21:48] <hwg> my GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX is saying it was at vga=799, is that even a VGA resolution??
[21:49] <ymasory_> does anyone have recent experience with TimeVault? is it mature enough to use?
[21:49] <ackatack> jrib: i'm still have some issues with apache trying to serve php files as downloads instead of processed pages
[21:49] <stryker-v> Ljl : i did that but i already have the same password and password promt still appears
[21:49] <jrib> !php > ackatack
[21:49] <murlidhar> Master: yucks... gotta find the deb again :|
[21:49] <jrib> !lamp > ackatack

[21:49] <jiffe> if I wanted to setup a chrooted web server, how hard do you think it would be to maintain the chroot environment with updates and all?
[21:49] <jrib> ackatack: sorry.  Read the lamp link ubottu sent you and follow its troubleshooting steps for that issue
[21:49] <jrib> !away > rpg|away
[21:50] <hwg> Last question, is uncommenting GRUB_GFXMODE a good idea?
[21:50] <Finity> Hey guys, is there a bug report on ubuntu 10.10 freezing when trying to resume from sleep?
[21:50] <snake_> hdgc, don't you have a solution, or are you researching.
[21:50] <Master> murlidhar: Dont remove parts of stuff and hope that the rest of the stuff will work maybe, but its a good way to learn/the hard way :) Reboot after reinstalling that package
[21:51] <Finity> I'm on a laptop, and if I close the laptop (which puts the computer to sleep), and open it back up (sometimes, though not always) it'll freeze at the terminal before resuming. HD activity indicator goes wild for a bit, then stops
[21:51] <murlidhar> Master: YES :)
[21:51] <Master> :)
[21:51] <ackatack> jrib: thanks, i think it's all sorted for now
[21:51] <hdgc> snake_:sorry, I was absent
[21:51] <Seveas> hwg, according to docs, VGA= is not supported in grub2 and you need to use something else. What you need to use I don't know, but google probably does :)
[21:51] <hwg> Heh.
[21:51] <snake_> hdgc, that's quite alright.
[21:52] <Master> Finity: On windoh it just doesnt evar come back at times :)
[21:53] <Finity> Master: hehe, I wouldn't know, I've been using Ubuntu on this thing ever since I've started :)
[21:53] <murlidhar> hwg: sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
[21:53] <murlidhar> hwg: ?
[21:53] <murlidhar> see if it works
[21:53] <Finity> I'm guessing it's because I upgraded to 10.10
[21:53] <hwg> I'll try that murl
[21:53] <hwg> thanks
[21:53] <Finity> Might have to do a fresh install at some point and see if it persists
[21:53] <Finity> just wait for 10-10
[21:54] <Master> Finity: Good stuff, because some of the things ive seen in computings would scare the hell out of most of those "other users" :)

[21:56] <fredfire> Hi, I would like to know if it's possible to get some notifications from my raid system wich is on ubuntu? my email or something?
[21:57] <snake_> italian :)
[21:57] <hdgc> snake_: try with k3b
[21:57] <Master> snake_: Guten morgen, guten abend. God Morgon, God kväll. Good Morning, Good evening (Same)
[21:57] <erUSUL> fredfire: what type of raid? mdadm can be confiured for that iirc
[21:58] <hdgc> snake_:wht is the error message?
[21:58] <Master> snake_. So that was Spanish, Deutsch, Swedish and English.
[21:58] <snake_> hdgc, i have no error yet.. well besides the disc not working. but there was no message for that.
[21:59] <fredfire> erUSUL: i have no idea whats is my raid, raid 5 it is.
[21:59] <erUSUL> fredfire: linux software raid? bios fakeraid? real hardware raid ?
[22:00] <fredfire> i assume I ised mdadm to create it.
[22:00] <Master> snake_: "Buenasera" means good night in Italian ;)
[22:00] <fredfire> erUSUL : yes software raid with mdadm that's what I used.
[22:00] <hdgc> snake_:try with k3b or use a terminal
[22:02] <erUSUL> fredfire: /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf has a setting to specify a mail to send status too ( is configured to mail root by default)
[22:02] <gasull> Hi.  I'm trying to burn a ~500MB .avi into a DVD using Devede.  When I do it uses more than half of its 4.7GB.  Is that normal?
[22:02] <erUSUL> fredfire: i suppose you need to set up a mta or nullmailer for that to work
[22:03] <erUSUL> gasull: well it has to transcode it to something compatible with dvd players so it si bound to grow
[22:03] <fredfire> erUSUL: Thanks! that will do the job I assume, then there must be a verbose level to make sure I don't get spammed.
[22:03] <Zearth> gasull  unless you just want to put the avi on the disc to be read as-is.
[22:03] <gasull> erUSUL:  I see.  Thanks.  There is no way to avoid it, right?
[22:04] <Zearth> you can transcode at a really crummy bitrate
[22:04] <Evil_Eric> hi guys
[22:04] <Evil_Eric> anyone awake
[22:04] <theamoeba> hello
[22:04] <erUSUL> gasull: see Zearth response
[22:04] <Zearth> but it will look/sound bad
[22:04] <fredfire> gasull: you could brun only the avi file directly most dvd players can read it like your computer do.
[22:04] <Zearth> some, I guess most...
[22:04] <Zearth> new ones that is
[22:04] <DjAngo23> I want to make a fresh install of apache. How can i remove everything including .conf files, and reinstall everything
[22:04] <gasull> Zearth:  I want it to be read by a DVD player.
[22:05] <murlidhar> Master: all i did was to deleted the .pulse folder and voila it works.
[22:05] <murlidhar> Master: :)
[22:05] <fredfire> apt-get remove -purge
[22:05] <Zearth> check the persons dvd player if you can...
[22:05] <DjAngo23> so i can watch my php sources at localhost
[22:05] <gasull> fredfire: Will a DVD player read it?
[22:05] <Zearth> cant assume all dvd players will read avi natively
[22:05] <Evil_Eric> im having troubles burning a dvd using linux i could use the help
[22:06] <fredfire> gasull: usually newer dvd players are able to read avi files directly, they decode them. Unless it's really old.
[22:06] <fredfire> gasull: and it'll brun faster ;)
[22:06] <Zearth> again, thats making an assumption gasull... hopefully it will be ok
[22:06] <fredfire> burn*
[22:06] <Meraki> Any system administrators here?
[22:06] <killawat> im having trouble finding some programs i installed
[22:06] <gasull> fredfire:  I see.  Thank you.  It's for a friend.  I'll find out what DVD player she has.
[22:06] <Zearth> PS3 will read avi won't it?
[22:07] <Evil_Eric> ive been through 8 dvds so far trying to burn a dvd
[22:07] <sandyd> Evil_Eric: Have you checked md5?
[22:07] <VCoolio> killawat: dpkg-query -L package   or    whereis program
[22:07] <kartanesi> hi.
[22:08] <killawat> ok
[22:08] <kartanesi> whats the question format?
[22:08] <Evil_Eric> md5?

[22:08] <Meraki> I started using Linux about a year ago and I am in love with it, I've been learning quite a bit about Linux as of late and I was wondering of a professional sysadmin could point me in the direction of a few good classes to take or books to read, so many out there I'd love to hear the opinion of someone who works with Linux for a living.
[22:08] <meera> good evening, is it possible install linux on an old laptop, 12 giga hd 386 mb ram, 800 celeron which runns with windows xp?

[22:09] <st__> meera, yes but be ready for really shitty, unsupported alternative applications
[22:09] <Zearth> heh
[22:09] <fredfire> Evil_Eric: If you're trying to burn a linux dirtribution, there is a md5 hash to make sure that your downloaded the file completly and it's not corrupted.
[22:09] <Zearth> p3?
[22:09] <Meraki> forums are up for me dwx
[22:09] <sandyd> Meraki: don't know if they would be much use, but take a look at lpi and ubuntu certification

[22:10] <kartanesi> i am using Ubuntu 9.04 and i have windows XP installed in same hd , how can i learn that.. i have still windows files available?

[22:10] <murlidhar> Master: so i thought why not delete the .pulse folder n check if it works.
[22:10] <Colloguy> gnome-terminal --geometry can place a terminal window against screen edges, but is there an easy way to place a terminal window in the center of the screen?

[22:12] <killawat> VCoolio i found one of the programs in /usr/share i exicuted the program and got this :/usr/share/dolphin-emu/Dolphin: relocation error: /usr/share/dolphin-emu/Dolphin: symbol _ZN12wxAuiToolBar12ms_classInfoE, version WXU_2.8 not defined in file libwx_gtk2u_aui-2.8.so.0 with link time reference
[22:13] <forceflow> Evil_Eric: DeVeDe just makes an .iso
[22:13] <forceflow> you've got to burn it using another tool
[22:13] <richardcavell> Hi. I'm looking for software that will play out videos fullscreen on demand.  So I load a number of videos into my machine.  if I press '1', video number 1 instantly plays.  If I press '2', video 2 instantly plays, etc.  Suggestions?
[22:13] <forceflow> richardcavell: vlc + keyboard shortcuts
[22:13] <sandyd> killawat: looks like the libraries are not compiled against each other
[22:13] <sandyd> killawat: you got any ppas enabled?
[22:14] <killawat> yes
[22:14] <st__> is there some application to setup fonts.conf?
[22:14] <sandyd> killawat: which ones
[22:14] <sandyd> killawat: some of them give incompatible, newer libraries. You will have to use ppa-purge to remove them
[22:14] <arcadia> cant boot backtrack with grub... it start running all well and suddenly kernel panic no init found
[22:15] <sandyd> killawat: also, check if you installed all updates
[22:15] <mr_chris> arcadia: This is the ubuntu IRC channel. Not backtrack.
[22:15] <killawat> ok
[22:15] <st__> arcadia, definitely something is preceding it
[22:15] <arcadia> and the problem is that if i use lilo instead of grub lilo cant read ubuntu partitions
[22:15] <jdimatteo> can somebody help me setup empathy with my work IMAP?  when I click "Send/Receive" it shows my IMAP folders flow by on the bottom of the screen, but when I try to expand the triangle for my IMAP mail to see my mail folders, nothing happens as if there are no folders
[22:15] <Seveas> jdimatteo, hit the + key
[22:16] <Seveas> jdimatteo, (as in: select the folder with the triangle nect to it and then hit +)
[22:16] <Seveas> jdimatteo, it's an annoying bug :)
[22:16] <kartanesi> i am using ubuntu 9.04 from a year..i dont remember if i made format my laptop and install it.... i think i didnt format... so i think i have windows in my hd... and and i want to take some files from it..how can i access to my windows files and search about them. thanks.
[22:16] <Evil_Eric> forceflow yes im finding this out
[22:16] <diego_> erfgrgr
[22:16] <diego_> culo
[22:16] <diego_> .i.
[22:16] <mr_chris> arcadia: You could try using grub with ubuntu to boot backtrack
[22:16] <Seveas> diego_, behave or begone please.
[22:17] <killawat> http://ppa.launchpad.net/rufustfirefly/dolphin-emu/ubuntu
[22:17] <sandyd> killawat: thats the problem.
[22:17] <Seveas> kartanesi, pastebin the output of this command: sudo fdisk -l
[22:17] <killawat> http://ppa.launchpad.net/gregory-hainaut/pcsx2.official.ppa/ubuntu
[22:17] <st__> why people use it? it's hacker's distro
[22:17] <jdimatteo> Seveas, lol yeah, that is an annoying problem!  thanks a bunch, that fixed it.
[22:17] <sandyd> killawat: the programs in the ppa aren't compiled against the libraires you have on your computer
[22:17] <killawat> so how do i purge?
[22:17] <arcadia> im using grub but attempting to boot in backtrack it get kernel panic, that doesnt happens with lilo,  but with lilo i cant get into ubuntu
[22:17] <Madwill> how many ram do you think one needs to run ubuntu 10.04 with maybe virtualbox in integrated mode with XP+photoshop cs5
[22:18] <sandyd> killawat: therefore, the dolphin-emu will not work
[22:18] <Master> Evil_Eric: Have the data on one computer and sync it to another computer or external drive instead of burning CD's and DVD's.
[22:18] <ikar> is lightspark a replacement for gnash, or adobe flash-player?
[22:18] <killawat> ok
[22:18] <dwxreaper> hmm this firewall is blocking ubuntuforums
[22:18] <dwxreaper> but everything else is okay
[22:18] <killawat> is there a solution?
[22:18] <Seveas> Madwill, a lot
[22:18] <Riotta> ikar: both
[22:18] <sandyd> killawat: compile it yourself
[22:18] <mr_chris> Madwill: I'd go with 4GB
[22:18] <Madwill> yeah 4gb is not a lot right
[22:18] <Madwill> oh
[22:18] <Madwill> i'll go for it
[22:18] <killawat> aw man
[22:18] <dwarder> why seek thingy in RhythmBox, when i move it utter ugly sound? can i make something with it?
[22:18] <jdimatteo> Seveas, any idea why I have two inboxes under this IMAP account?
[22:18] <Seveas> 4GB will be ok
[22:18] <ikar> Riotta, ok
[22:18] <Jon--> I have a file in ~/bin that is a python file. Easiest way to be able to go "filename" in CLI and have it do "python filename" ?
[22:18] <Seveas> jdimatteo, no.
[22:18] <Riotta> ikar: it's alternative little more mature than gnash but still far behind adobe
[22:18] <mr_chris> Madwill: It'll be slow. Keep that in mind.
[22:19] <Madwill> it is
[22:19] <sandyd> killawat: you can also ask *nicely* for the ppa owner to do an update
[22:19] <st__> Jon--, begin the file with #!/usr/bin/python
[22:19] <Madwill> is there a seamsless kind of way of doing this ?
[22:19] <Seveas> Jon--, make the first line of that file: #!/usr/bin/python
[22:19] <Seveas> and make it executable
[22:19] <mr_chris> Madwill: The Gimp is always fun to learn. No extra RAM needed.
[22:19] <Madwill> if i need dualboot i'll stick with windows
[22:19] <Oer> !register > Oer
[22:19] <Madwill> Gimp was hell to learn when i first tryed 3 years ago
[22:19] <Seveas> Madwill, you could try running photoshop with wine
[22:20] <dwarder> no one uses RhythmBOx?
[22:20] <st__> Madwill, how you gonna run Photoshop if Ubuntu doesn't support color management?
[22:20] <ikar> Riotta, i see. Thanks for the info.
[22:20] <Madwill> i only really need photo editing
[22:20] <Jon--> st__: Seveas: I don't have a /usr/bin/python but python works from cli
[22:20] <mr_chris> Madwill: It's one of those things you have to stick with to learn, just like Photoshop the first time. I was the same way. Now I use it exclusively with no problems.
[22:20] <Master> dwarder: I use Rhythmbox
[22:20] <Jon--> what the hell
[22:20] <dancek> mr_chris, what makes you think running photoshop in virtualbox with 4gb ram would be slow
[22:20] <kartanesi> Seveas, i pasted it to your private.. pastebin didnt work with me.
[22:20] <st__> Jon--, 'which python' gives what?
[22:20] <Jon--> "bash: ./dbcli.py: /usr/bin/python^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory"
[22:20] <Jon--> there's the error
[22:20] <Seveas> kartanesi, pastebin is a website :)
[22:20] <Madwill> mr_chris : and you do mostly photography ediding right
[22:21] <dwarder> Master: where you use seek dial or arrow key to move to next 5 sec or something, Rhythm Box utter strange sound
[22:21] <frobisher> #ubuntu-off topic
[22:21] <dwarder> Master: do you have that issue?
[22:21] <Seveas> kartanesi, anyway, you have no windows partitions, so you must have formatted last year
[22:21] <dwarder> Master: where == When
[22:21] <kartanesi> ahhh ok Seveas  thanks.
[22:21] <Jon--> I do have /usr/bin/python
[22:21] <Jon--> if I do python file it works
[22:21] <st__> why there is ^M at the end?
[22:21] <kartanesi> but pastebin was working with me... in terminal :) now it crashed.
[22:21] <Madwill> and how about a nice NZB grabber is there any one up here now ?
[22:21] <sandyd> mr_chris: running it with 4GB ram will NOT be slow. You can also grab a copy of lightzone for linux if you want
[22:21] <Jon--> if I just execute the file, and it has ##!/usr/bin/python as first line
[22:21] <mr_chris> dancek: Unless Photoshop can utilize the hardware natively it runs slowly. I've tried it. It also relies on GPU acceleration where it can (correct me if I'm wrong) which it can't do in VirtualBox. It's not a matter of RAM but a matter of CPU power.
[22:21] <Jon--> it doesn't work
[22:22] <Seveas> Jon--, please read carefully
[22:22] <Seveas> only one #
[22:22] <erUSUL> st__: file has  DOS line endings
[22:22] <Jon--> I added the second #
[22:22] <Jon--> There is only one
[22:22] <Master> dwarder: I have some issue with that on a semi-slow computer (2Ghz i think) on ubuntu.
[22:22] <Madwill> lightzone i like that !
[22:22] <st__> don't tell me ^M is a valid filename char
[22:22] <Jon--> My mistake, I thought I didn't copy it so I wrote in the extra # myself
[22:22] <Seveas> Jon--, ok, and in what way does it not work?
[22:22] <mr_chris> Madwill: I don't. I'm just a web dev. Honestly, if you want to use Photoshop at full speed but not use Windows, OS X is your best bet.
[22:22] <Master> dwarder: Im not sure if its got something todo with ubuntu but i suspect it.
[22:23] <Jon--> Seveas: python file works. ./file gives: bash: ./dbcli.py: /usr/bin/python^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
[22:23] <Madwill> but os x will not support my hardware
[22:23] <frobisher> How to you switch to #unubtu off-topic in freeenode
[22:23] <ikar> is it safe to install 10.10 beta?
[22:23] <Seveas> Jon--, edit it with a unix editor, not notepad.
[22:23] <Finity> ikar: I'm on it right now
[22:23] <Seveas> you have dos lineendings in that file
[22:23] <Jon--> Seveas: I modifed the line with vim and saved no difference
[22:23] <dancek> mr_chris, so you're saying that even if everything else works well in virtualbox, photoshop will be slow? i also thought virtualbox supported gpu accel but then again i'm used to vmware
[22:23] <Madwill> ikar i would wait 2 weeks for the official release
[22:23] <Brack10> Hiya
[22:23] <ikar> Finity, cool
[22:24] <Madwill> dancek it does support in "some" cases
[22:24] <mr_chris> dancek: When it comes to that, VirtualBox is on the bottom of the performance chain. I've tried it. Trust me. It's slow.
[22:24] <Brack10> I moved an Ubuntu server to different hardware and ethernet isn't working
[22:24] <Seveas> Jon--, with vim, delete the line and add it again
[22:24] <Brack10> I tried modprobe to get e1000 installed, not working
[22:24] <Brack10> what can I try?
[22:24] <Madwill> so should i get vmWare free edition ?
[22:24] <mr_chris> dancek: VirtualBox is find for most things but for what PhotoShop does, while it is usuable it will be slow.
[22:24] <Jon--> Seveas: I did.
[22:24] <Jon--> Seveas: No difference
[22:24] <ikar> Madwill, yes, i'm waiting with hunger for the new ubuntu
[22:24] <dancek> mr_chris, ok, i stand corrected
[22:24] <st__> vmware had gone free?
[22:24] <richardcavell>  /join #videolan
[22:24] <mr_chris> dancek: I'd suggest trying Photoshop under virtualbox or vmware and making your own decision on it.
[22:24] <richardcavell> oops sorry
[22:25] <Seveas> Jon--, then you're not using vim or you have an insane ~/.vimrc
[22:25] <Master> dwarder: with my intel dual core laptop using fedora12 i dont see that issue. Perhaps playing mp3's requires more processing power nowdays, but i doubt it.
[22:25] <dancek> mr_chris, i can't afford photoshop :)
[22:25] <Jon--> Seveas: ...
[22:25] <mr_chris> dancek: Err I meant Madwill
[22:25] <aeon-ltd> dancek: settle for GIMP :)
[22:25] <Madwill> hehe, i'll try it
[22:25] <Madwill> and i'll try gimp again
[22:26] <__Hybris__> Gimp has a horrible layout :(
[22:26] <nomen> I cant connect to my wired network because network-manager applet is saying, under "wired network" "DEVICE NOT MANAGED" what can I do?
[22:26] <Madwill> all i need is photo editing for my GF, and gimp DOES have an horrible layout
[22:26] <Seveas> nomen, remove eth0 from /etc/network/interfaces
[22:26] <Brack10> I've done amazing things with GIMP
[22:26] <Brack10> don't bad mouth it
[22:26] <Madwill> lightzone might just be what she needs tho
[22:26] <__Hybris__> Brack10: link to pics?
[22:26] <Madwill> pic or it didnt happens :)
[22:27] <mr_chris> __Hybris__: Agreed, but depending on your needs there are times when Photoshop is just overkill and the gimp is just right for the job. Once you have the keyboard shortcuts down you an ignore the layout.
[22:27] <Brack10> alright hang on
[22:27] <__Hybris__> I'd love to see whether gimp really can compete with photoshop
[22:27] <killawat> how do i solve this error: error while loading shared libraries: libportaudio.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[22:27] <Madwill> __Hybris__ it truly can
[22:27] <aeon-ltd> Brack10: i have to admit GIMP does have a horrible layout, as does photoshop for mac, personally imo i like the workplace in a a desktop look
[22:27] <Master> dwarder: I wish i had more computers to test the various compilations on. Ill buy a new computer in a while if i can. (Stupid economy thing you know)
[22:27] <st__> Madwill, not with CS series
[22:27] <Madwill> but its a whole new sets of skills that you need
[22:27] <Seveas> killawat, install libportaudio0
[22:27] <Brack10> ok not now because they're on my other computer
[22:27] <mr_chris> Madwill: You can run older versions of Photoshop under wine.
[22:28] <killawat> ok
[22:28] <Madwill> i know only cs2
[22:28] <Brack10> but if you don't have Photoshop, gimp does a great job most of the time
[22:28] <ikar> ps7 is working great under wine
[22:28] <erUSUL> killawat: it depends. what are you trying to run ?
[22:28] <Brack10> My main complaint about GIMP is typography
[22:28] <Brack10> but I think for doing layout for websites, gimp is better than PS
[22:28] <aeon-ltd> Brack10: yeah, depends if your a filter heavy designer, if not just use GIMP
[22:28] <dwarder> Master: i use vbox, you can use it for testing
[22:28] <Brack10> and it doesn't do print
[22:28] <Brack10> since there's no CMYK
[22:29] <Brack10> but who gives a fart about print
[22:29] <st__> is there some application to setup fonts.conf?
[22:29] <__Hybris__> True, all photoshops except the most recent run just fine on wine. But we need a comparable FOSS alternative.
[22:29] <aeon-ltd> Brack10: going offtopic, but there needs to a be a gnu image manipulation program thats minimal - kinda like pixelmator for mac
[22:29] <Madwill> i have a nice quad core and 4 gb i can buy another 4gb if i need i just want to get rid of windows
[22:29] <Master> dwarder: Possibly, but i rather not have any layer between things as it can and will cause problems.
[22:29] <mr_chris> Madwill: Of course you didn't come here for a gimp debate. It will work. It'll just be a bit slower. For your needs it may be fine. I suggest you try it.
[22:29] <Madwill> cs3-cs4 do not run so well last time i've checked
[22:29] <Brack10> aeon-ltd: why on earth would you want to use a program with fewer features
[22:29] <__Hybris__> "<Brack10> but I think for doing layout for websites, gimp is better than PS" How come?
[22:30] <st__> !ot
[22:30] <Madwill> i'll try thanks alot, and i did apreciate the Gimp debate and i will test it and try to get my gf to go for it
[22:30] <Madwill> she is the photograph
[22:30] <Brack10> __Hybris__:  Because it's more precise than PS without having to change a bunch of options
[22:30] <Brack10> oh and paste to new image is nice
[22:30] <Brack10> ok I'm done
[22:31] <mr_chris> __Hybris__: Because the majority of what Photoshop has is not needed for web layouts and the gimp fills that need adequately. Using Photoshop for web layouts is like killing a fly with a cannon.
[22:31] <aeon-ltd> Brack10: i wouldn't, just that theres no filler, if you've ever used 'preview' for mac you can change levels etc, but you can do full 'manipulation' like photoshop. thats why a lighter cheaper alternative needs to fill the hole between them
[22:31] <frobisher> How do you get to #ubuntu off-topic in freenode
[22:31] <aeon-ltd> !ot | frobisher
[22:31] <Brack10> #ubuntu-offtopic
[22:31] <Brack10> Ok so somebody please help me get my eth0 back...what can I try?
[22:31] <mr_chris> Brack10: I can help you with that.
[22:31] <__Hybris__> All right, we better get back on topic ;)
[22:32] <mr_chris> Brack10: Is it currently stuck on eth1 or higher?
[22:32] <Brack10> mr_chris: no I moved to new hardware and it's gone
[22:32] <Brack10> everything else appears to be fine
[22:32] <linkous> how do I limit the amount of storage space a desktop user is allowed to write on?
[22:33] <mr_chris> Do you have the file /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules ?
[22:34] <aeon-ltd> linkous: not sure of a desktop solution, but i suppose you could just make their /home partition a limited size
[22:34] <arcadia> i cant get ACKs!
[22:34] <Brack10> mr_chris: yes I do
[22:34] <st__> i tried fontconfig-config but it only asked about autohinter and raster fonts,,,,
[22:34] <ikar> i used Super Ubuntu 10.04, but was forced to change to real Ubuntu 10.04, and now there is a lot of mess with files in my /home  . is there a application to sort out the problem?
[22:35] <arcadia> i installed madwifi drivers my card support injection i have done it on backtrack but i cant get it done here. some help
[22:35] <mr_chris> Brack10: run "sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules". Delete all of the uncommented lines and reboot.
[22:35] <st__> ikar, you used what?
[22:35] <silasdavis> what is the command to sync the local apt repository with remote?
[22:36] <mr_chris> silasdavis: sudo aptitude update
[22:36] <Master> mr_chris: Running udevtrigger could also be ok.
[22:36] <silasdavis> apt-get
[22:36] <silasdavis> not aptitude
[22:36] <AVerTV> i have a Pentium III  750 MHz  256MB RAM running lucid. Everything worked ok but it was very slow running Gnome so i installed fluxbox and now everything works ok except my AverMedia AVerTV Volar Black HD (A850) which is a TDT USB device. It actually kinda works wiyh gnome but the picture is a bit jerky and i lose audio within 20 seconds of running kaffeine. Can anyone help me?
[22:36] <linkous> aeon: this users home folder isn't a partition. Is there some way to cap the amount of storage taken by this home folder (or any folder for that matter)?
[22:36] <AVerTV> http://pastebin.com/ET5tFUUV
[22:36] <mr_chris> Master: I've never heard of udevtrigger. What is that?
[22:37] <arcadia> i can enter monitor mode and asocciate and evertithing fine until aireplay-ng -3 , i get no ACKs
[22:37] <mr_chris> arcadia: This isn't the backtrack forum.
[22:37] <arcadia> no backtrack
[22:37] <mr_chris> arcadia: Ah. My apologies.
[22:37] <Master> mr_chris: echos trigger events to all devices and they repopulate/reinitialize
[22:37] <arcadia> i can do it in backtrack but in ubuntu no acks
[22:37] <AVerTV> when i use fluxbox instead of gnome dmesg shows no errors but Kaffeine says: "device not connected"
[22:37] <ikar> st__: i had Super os aka Super Ubuntu 10.04 before, but now i installed the Ubuntu 10.04, and it's a lot of files that needs to be deleted or edited
[22:38] <faceface> hdgc: ?
[22:38] <aeon-ltd> linkous: there is a program called 'quota', i have no idea how to set it up or use it though, someone else here might
[22:39] <Brack10> mr_chris: Success!  Thank you!
[22:39] <mr_chris> Master: It doesn't an available nor available in a repo. How do you use it?
[22:39] <mr_chris> Brack10: You're welcome.
[22:39] <Brack10> mr_chris: what's the explanation for that?\
[22:39] <arcadia> i have ath5k driver
[22:39] <linkous> aeon-ltd: thanks for the information. I should be just fine researching it myself
[22:39] <Master> mr_chris: whereis udevtrigger
[22:39] <riaanfv_> good night
[22:39] <mr_chris> Master: returns nothing.
[22:39] <aeon-ltd> linkous: ok glad i could guide you a little
[22:39] <st__> is there some application to setup fonts.conf?
[22:40] <dwarder> Master: i swithed to audacious
[22:40] <mr_chris> Brack10: I'm not really familiar with out udev works or why it does that. I've just encountered that before.
[22:40] <Brack10> cool
[22:40] <Master> mr_chris: sudo whereis udevtrigger ... its usually in /sbin
[22:40] <Brack10> I spent like an hour troubleshooting that problem in here before and this took like 10 seconds
[22:40] <Brack10> makes sense because modprobe said e1000 was installed and working
[22:41] <Brack10> messages was complaining about the driver but didn't list that file
[22:41]  * dwarder uninstalling RhythmBox
[22:41] <mr_chris> Master: Fresh install of lucid. Did whereis as root. No udevtrigger.
[22:41] <mr_chris> not in sbin
[22:41] <arcadia> before installing that driver i had to > modprobe ath_pci, modprobe ipwraw, airmon-ng stop ath0,ifconfig wifi0 down to get monitor mode, but no acks, i installed this ath5k driver, i just start wlan0 and get monitor but still no acks...
[22:42] <Master> mr_chris: do you have udevmonitor atleast ?
[22:43] <mr_chris> Master: I do not.
[22:43] <Dulak> Master: it's all under the tool udevadm now iirc
[22:43] <Dulak> Master: 'udevadm monitor'
[22:44] <Braber01> how do i get into network manager?
[22:44] <Brack10> ok so I have another issue.  I'm using sysklogd for a syslog server.  I've set SYSLOGD="-r -m0" in /etc/init.d/sysklogd but when I check processes it's running as "/sbin/syslogd -u"
[22:44] <zorane> hello
[22:44] <mr_chris> Dulak: Ah. There we go!
[22:44] <zorane> anybody knows how i disable sound from the speakers if i have headphones
[22:44] <mr_chris> Master: so user udevadm trigger how would you solve that network card issue?
[22:44] <mr_chris> *so using
[22:44] <Braber01> !anyone | zorane
[22:44] <Master> dwarder: Rhythmbox has always worked perfectly for me although not with ubuntu on the 2ghz computer when running a few servers :)
[22:45] <dludldin> hi everybody!
[22:45] <faceface> bye everybody
[22:45] <zorane> ok
[22:45] <Brack10> how can I get it to run with my args?
[22:45] <zorane> hello

[22:47] <mr_chris> np
[22:47] <dludldin> how to run guitartux from console?
[22:47] <Master> dwarder: I used to use the OSS version of winamp but fedora destroyed the source code and simply said that "You need non free codecs but we wont let you, blah blah". Crap :)
[22:47] <Brack10> got it, /etc/default/syslogd
[22:48] <hdgc> dludldin: tuxguitar
[22:49] <dludldin> hdgc : command not found
[22:49] <Master> dwarder: http://www.xmms.org/
[22:49] <zorane> i have a problem with my sound card, when i plug in the headphones the speakers still keep to be emitting sounds, how do i disable them?
[22:50] <hdgc> dludldin: apt-get install tuxguitar

[22:51] <dludldin> hdgc : but guitartux is already installed
[22:51] <dwarder> Master: yes, i know, audacious is a fork of it
[22:52] <dwarder> Master: looks same
[22:52] <zorane> Dulak: i already did it but with no result
[22:52] <zorane> any package i can download?
[22:52]  * Braber01 shouts for joy as he is in his login shell in irssi with internet
[22:53] <dwarder> Braber01: this is just ubuntu program that emulates all this
[22:53] <dwarder> Braber01: ;)
[22:53] <Dulak> zorane: no idea, that works for me without anything special, I just tried it, switched it to headset then back to speakers and it worked.
[22:53] <Master> dwarder: The OSS version has always looked nicer. Its got a 3D-look by default as you can see :)
[22:53] <hdgc> tuxguitar, not guitartux
[22:54] <dludldin> hdgc : oooppsssss
[22:54] <Braber01> dwarder: earlier i was having a problem getting online, i had to start my desktop if i wanted to go online now I don't need to do that any more :)
[22:54] <pingu> Which encryption method is File-roller using, when I select 7z?
[22:55] <Dulak> pingu: none, it's compression not encryption
[22:55] <hdgc> dludldin: sometimes happens...
[22:55] <zorane> Dulak: when i do that no sound goes out, when i turn to analog output, it goes out from both
[22:56] <pingu> Dulak when I use 7z with encryption
[22:56] <Dulak> zorane: is it a usb headset or what?
[22:56] <zorane> no
[22:56] <zorane> Dulak: it is a normal headset with iphone
[22:56] <ag007> whats going on
[22:56] <Karuption> hey, ubuntu is not muting the speakers when i plug in my headphones
[22:56] <dludldin> hdgc : aint got a clue from terminal either

[22:57] <zorane> Karuption: i have the same problem
[22:57] <Dulak> zorane: no idea on that, I use a usb headset
[22:57] <Karuption> zorane: with a headphone jack?

[22:59] <ag007> THE FUCK
[23:00] <Karuption> ANYBODY know how to fix the headphone jack not overiding the speakers in ubuntu? it started happening like a week ago D:
[23:00] <yan__> Hello
[23:00] <n0a1ias> hey, my backround and icons are in black and white. any ideas?
[23:01] <n0a1ias> everything else is in color
[23:01] <dwarder> strange, my ability to change virtual desktops with ctrl+shift+arrow is not available for me anymore
[23:01] <dwarder> and top menu hanged again
[23:01] <Dulak> dwarder: ctrl-alt-arrow
[23:01] <Nikyo> I'm looking for a dock (taskbar) like Cairo-Dock or Avant that can run in a Window Manager like Blackbox without Compiz. Suggetions, please. Thank You.
[23:01] <dwarder> Dulak: yes i meant this
[23:01] <dwarder> Dulak: this doesn't work
[23:02] <scgtrp> how is ubuntu's support for ati video cards which other distros have trouble with?
[23:02] <n0a1ias> i think my compiz crashed, how do i reset it?
[23:02] <dwarder> killall gnome-panel doesn't help anymore
[23:03] <Dulak> scgtrp: it's about the same, since it's proprietary drivers that all the distros use, ati doesn't have great linux support
[23:03] <dwarder> now it is working ....
[23:03] <scgtrp> Dulak: so i've noticed. i fought with it on arch and got it semi-working, i'm thinking ubuntu might do a better job of it automatically than me stumbling around not knowing much about it
[23:04] <Dulak> scgtrp: it's hit or miss truly, they do have the automated driver stuff that makes it easier, but whether it works for you or not is pretty much a coin flip
[23:05] <ink> http://www.jus.net/new/
[23:06] <zorane> i have a problem with my sound card, when i plug in the headphones the speakers still keep to be emitting sounds, how do i disable them?
[23:06] <Dulak> scgtrp: after the first boot once you install it should give you a driver prompt in the notification area for the automated driver install, that part is actually really easy
[23:06] <mahioo> hello , is there any way to overlay text or image in video from cmd
[23:07] <scgtrp> alright. my current arch install is hosed enough to be mostly unusable, can't hurt to give it a try
[23:07] <kcj> I can't seem to play ogg files. Can someone please help me?
[23:07] <Nikyo> I'm looking for a dock (taskbar) like Cairo-Dock or Avant that can run in a Window Manager like Blackbox without Compiz. Suggetions, please. Thank You.
[23:08] <kcj> Nikyo: Dockey?
[23:08] <mahioo> mahioo: is there any command
[23:09] <Dulak> Nikyo: dockey, or you can use gnome-do with a dock theme to get the same type of setup
[23:09] <Nikyo> @kcj: I forgot if Docky needs compiz but I'll check. Thanks.. I'm running Ubuntu on a Pentium 3.. pretty good so far
[23:09] <VCoolio> Nikyo: or dockbarx on a panel (find it on gnome-look.org, it also has a ppa I think)
[23:10] <Nikyo> @Dulak: Thanks.. another one I forgot to check.. my mind is shot these days..lol..
[23:10] <Dulak> dockbarx is nice on my netbook, saves me a lot of screen space
[23:10] <kcj> Can anyone help get my ogg files playing?
[23:10] <mouse> Is there a fast way to produce a list of programs installed?
[23:11] <VCoolio> kcj: is there useful output on for example 'mplayer file.ogg' ?
[23:11] <Nikyo> Thanks Guys.. I'll try dockbarx as well..
[23:11] <gms> HI guys
[23:11] <gms> I am hoping osme one can help me here
[23:12] <mahioo> any help
[23:12] <dsl482> is it possible to use fstab to mount as any other user than root..? (or how to automount a partition as a normal user during startup, not as root)
[23:12] <gms> I need to set up my router with a dial up connection to my router, the  router is in bridge mode so i need a pppoe dial up connection from ubuntu, i have tried everything and nothing seem sot work, I get the impression Ubuntu does not support this?
[23:13] <Dulak> mouse: dpkg --get-selections > installed-packages.txt
[23:14] <mahioo> no tool to do this
[23:14] <VCoolio> dsl482: if you want write access, make sure you own the mount point and mount with options user,rw in fstab; if it's ntfs it needs some more lingo, I'm not sure
[23:14] <mouse> Dulak, Thank you.
[23:14] <gms> Doers anyone here know if Ubuntu supports PPPOE dial up connections?
[23:14] <mahioo> gms: yes is support try sudo pppoeconf
[23:14] <Master> mahioo: What are you looking for / didnt see the question.. ?
[23:15] <flixil> Hello, I'm trying to use ibus + m17n to emulate a czech kbd but whenever I activate the ibus with czech for an application that application stops responding.  ibus m17n version 1.2.0.20091217-1
[23:15] <kcj> VCoolio: This is all I get http://paste.ubuntu.com/502904/
[23:15] <dsl482> root is the owner of /mnt, and anything created in there will inherit that, is it possible to override that and have one or more folders under /mnt owned by a normal user?
[23:15] <flixil> How can I debug ibus?
[23:15] <mahioo> Master: tool for overlay image or text in video from cmd
[23:16] <gms> I tried that and it just buggered everythign up.for instance in wondows i can dial up and off whenevr i choose, is there not an easier way to do this in Ubuntu? Also do we knwo if teh latest release is slightly more effective in dealing with this?
[23:16] <Master> mahioo: Not my field of expertice, sorry.
[23:16] <gms> thakns for your reply
[23:16] <zorane> i have a problem with my sound card, when i plug in the headphones the speakers still keep to be emitting sounds, how do i disable them?
[23:16] <mahioo> Master: thank you
[23:16] <Dulak> dsl482: you can override it in your /etc/fstab, the exact way depends on the filesystem type you are mounting
[23:17] <dsl482> I will be mounting both ext4 and NTFS partitions
[23:17] <sweetpi> gms: iirc that feature is part of upnp, there should be a way to do it
[23:18] <yan__> if i want to use QQ, skype or MSN, which software should i install?
[23:18] <VCoolio> kcj: I don't see anything to debug there, sorry
[23:18] <kcj> oh
[23:18] <Brack10> Anyone know of a web app that displays a text file in real time
[23:18] <sweetpi> gms: your talking about through your router right?
[23:18] <Brack10> like for log files
[23:18] <gms> yeah
[23:19] <gms> sweetpi: Yeah
[23:19] <yan__> can anyone answer my question?
[23:19] <gms> I use it as a dial up modem
[23:19] <dwarder> how do i disable antialiasing in Firefox
[23:19] <dwarder> ?
[23:19] <VCoolio> dsl482: yes, you can sudo chown -R dsl482 /mnt/mountpoint   or make sure you have write access there (unmount partition first)
[23:19] <kcj> VCoolio: I'm a little suspicious of ffmpeg
[23:19] <gms> there are a few of us on the house and we each have our own account, they are all on Macs though
[23:19] <dsl482> yan__: do you mean if there is a software that could connect to them all? Skype for skype, and Pidgin for QQ and MSN (and more)
[23:19] <sweetpi> gms: so computer says connect, modem says ok and starts a pppoe connection right?
[23:19] <Dulak> dsl482: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[23:19] <sweetpi> gms: s/modem/router/
[23:19] <gms> sweetpi: thats it
[23:20] <DroneWork> Any of you use ubuntu to record your cable shows and whatnot?  What cablecard tuner have you had good experience with?  Multi-stream prefered
[23:20] <gms> ?
[23:20] <sweetpi> gms: yeah pretty sure thats part of upnp
[23:20] <gms> whats upnp?
[23:20] <DroneWork> universal plug and play
[23:20] <VCoolio> kcj: try vlc, if that doesn't play it usually means the file is broken..
[23:20] <Dulak> dsl482: in the options for fstab you want to use uid=xxx and probably gid=xxx to specify the user and group to own the mount
[23:21] <gms> agh
[23:21] <yan__> dsl482: i want to use QQ. i downloaded a linux version QQ, but it is not stable, it always lost connection, so i wonder are there any better platform enable me to use QQ
[23:21] <DroneWork> I need to get a cablecard tuner for this PC, but I want to make sure I get one support by ubuntu
[23:21] <gms> ok
[23:21] <yan__> QQ is actually a chinese version of MSN
[23:21] <dsl482> Dulak: ah, that sounds like a useful clue, thanks, will try that
[23:22] <Dulak> DroneWork: I have a Hauppauge 350 that works great on ubuntu
[23:22] <DroneWork> multi stream?
[23:22]  * dwarder just hates antialiasing
[23:22] <dsl482> yan__: try Pidgin, are you in China :-)
[23:23] <Dulak> DroneWork: not sure what that means but it has 2 tuners so I can record and watch at the same time
[23:23] <DroneWork> yeah thats what it means
[23:23] <DroneWork> ty
[23:23] <DroneWork> oh what software you using with it?
[23:23] <Dulak> MythTV
[23:23] <DroneWork> are you able to move your movies to other systems to watch if need be?  Any idea what format it records in?
[23:24] <kcj> VCoolio: Nope, VLC won't play any ogg files.
[23:24] <fridgerator> will anything stop working if i remove pulseaudio?
[23:25] <Dulak> DroneWork: It's encoded in mpeg2 or mpeg4 don't remember and you can reencode to whatever format you like with ffmpeg
[23:25] <DroneWork> I am going to be recording everything via my ubuntu machine but sharing the recordings to access them with my HTPC using XMBC
[23:25] <kcj> fridgerator: Only your sound.
[23:25] <DroneWork> Awesome, thanks for the into
[23:25] <fridgerator> kcj all sound?
[23:25] <kcj> fridgerator: Most I think.
[23:25] <richardcavell> I have a file that is on my desktop that I was only able to copy as root.  Now my normal username can't open it because permission is denied.  What's the appropriate terminal command to switch ownership/permissions to my normal user from su?
[23:25] <Akernedo> Bonjour tout le monde
[23:25] <Dulak> richardcavell: sudo chown user:group filename
[23:26] <fridgerator> well... pulseaudio makes the sound in my games through wine stop working
[23:26] <fridgerator> and its getting on my nerves
[23:26] <Kurdistan> I dear people my fan is spinning all the time
[23:26] <richardcavell> Dulak: And I get user and group from uid and gid?
[23:26] <Kurdistan> no rest
[23:26] <Akernedo> Looks like i need to speak english right here, no?
[23:26] <Dulak> richardcavell: no it's the name, like username:username
[23:26] <richardcavell> Akernedo: Oui
[23:26] <Kurdistan> ubuntu bugg?
[23:27] <Akernedo> well, it's going to be difficult to explain clearly my problem, but i cannot download with p2p softs like vuze for example
[23:27] <fridgerator> kurdistan, your ceiling fan?? no, thats not an ubuntu bug
[23:27] <jeand> bonsoir
[23:27] <Kurdistan> fridgerator okey. because the laptop was at the service some days ago
[23:28] <Kurdistan> they changed the system card
[23:28] <richardcavell> Dulak: How do I find out my group name?
[23:28] <Kurdistan> I air cleaned my laptop so it can not be dusty
[23:28] <pipopooo> i'm having problems with wifi iwl3945 with new kernel update
[23:29] <Dulak> richardcavell: by default it's the same as your username, unless you changed something
[23:29] <Akernedo> does someone know anything about P2P configuration on ubuntu?
[23:29] <jeand> bonsoir
[23:29] <pipopooo> wifi is  working on the live usb, is there anyway i can get it working
[23:29] <anygivenname> is there a way to see all android system files located on my SD Card in Ubuntu ?
[23:29] <dwarder> am i need to restart x after editing ~/.fonts.conf ,
[23:29] <pipopooo> 0c:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)
[23:29] <dwarder> ,
[23:29] <dwarder> ?
[23:29] <jeand> hello
[23:30] <fridgerator> Akernedo, are you talking about torrents?
[23:30] <jeand> qui parle francais
[23:30] <acicula> anygivenname: im not familiar with android but it may be the case not all android files are stored on the SD card?
[23:30] <dwarder> !fr | jeand
[23:30] <Akernedo> fridgerator, i'm talking about vuze
[23:30] <FiReSTaRT> !fr | jeand
[23:30] <acicula> pipopooo: do none of the kernels work or does it just not work with the latest kernel?
[23:30] <pipopooo> acicula, it does not work with the latest kernel
[23:30] <Akernedo> so, yes, about torrents
[23:30] <fridgerator> Akernedo isnt vuze a torrent program?
[23:31] <Dulak> richardcavell: if you want to be sure type 'id' and it'll give you all the info
[23:31] <FiReSTaRT> Akernedo: you have transmission preinstalled or just open the terminal, run "sudo apt-get install transmission"
[23:31] <fridgerator> Akernedo I use the built-in torrent program "transmission" with no problems
[23:31] <RedGrittyBrick> richardcavel: do you mean as shown bt the ìd`command?
[23:31] <acicula> pipopooo: any relevant errors?
[23:31] <pipopooo> acicula, kernel 2.6.32-25
[23:31] <FiReSTaRT> Akernedo: but check if it's there.. applications, internet, transmission
[23:31] <Akernedo> and you think that transmission always work without any problem?
[23:31] <pipopooo> acicula, iwconfig shows wlan0, but cannot bring it up
[23:31] <FiReSTaRT> Akernedo: has for me
[23:31] <fridgerator> Akernedo definately
[23:32] <pipopooo> acicula, if i do ifconfig wlan0 up it fails
[23:32] <Akernedo> ok, i try, and then i tell you
[23:32] <acicula> pipopooo: aah
[23:32] <acicula> so driver then
[23:32] <pipopooo> acicula, yes
[23:32] <kurrata> i have a bash script( http://codepad.org/5bHKQQvX) and wanted to know if there is a way to on script execution to launch a terminal and execute script inside it not execute all commands somewhere in background?
[23:32] <acicula> does it give an error?
[23:32] <pipopooo> acicula, anyway to get the drivers off of live cd to get it working?
[23:32] <FiReSTaRT> Akernedo: enjoy.. it may be a memory hog when you add the torrent but it becomes nice within a minute
[23:33] <Dulak> vuze is much worse on resources than transmission, vuze is a PIG
[23:33] <fridgerator> i havent noticed transmission being a memory hog... at all
[23:34] <Akernedo> firestart and fridgerator, i'm trying Transmission, I tell you asap if it works for me, but generally i've got problems with P2P programs, even if it's not a torrent program
[23:34] <pipopooo> acicula, is it possible to grab the drivers from /lib/firmware ?
[23:34] <acicula> pipopooo: well you could try loading a driver from a similar major kernel version, ie the previous version, but its not a given its the iw driver itself
[23:34] <fridgerator> Akernedo, if you have a firewall set up make sure you allowed the right ports, same with your router
[23:34] <MagicJ> I have an .iso file that I use to boot a standalone utility -  If I write it as a CD it is bootable - how do I make it bootable as a flash drive/USB stick?
[23:34] <Dulak> Akernedo: force encryption on in the preferences it might be your ISP blocking/shaping p2p traffic
[23:34] <pipopooo> acicula, not understanding
[23:35] <Akernedo> configuring my ports and my router sounds a bit technical
[23:35] <Dulak> MagicJ: unetbootin can turn it into a bootable flash
[23:35] <Akernedo> or just difficult
[23:35] <FiReSTaRT> Akernedo: that could be throttling from your ISP or even your own router glitching... transmission worked for me under 5 different versions of ubuntu, on 9 providers in 4 countries, so it should work for you without any issues other than the initial memory leak that gets sorted out in 60 seconds
[23:35] <Ellis> is there a room specific for technical issues with things other then ubuntu and computers?
[23:35] <acicula> pipopooo: does ifconfig give an error?
[23:35] <MagicJ> ty Dulak - I will look for that and brb -
[23:36] <pipopooo> acicula, yes
[23:36] <pipopooo> acicula, ifconfig wlan0 up -> SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device
[23:36] <Ellis> is there a room specific for technical issues with things other then ubuntu and computers?
[23:36] <Master> pipopooo: The device is not up or doesnt exist
[23:36] <Dulak> Ellis: depends on the thing
[23:37] <pipopooo> device can't go up
[23:37] <Master> pipopooo: run "ifup DeviceName"
[23:37] <Ellis> Dulak lmao my flat screen is on the frits
[23:37] <acicula> pipopooo: whats the output from modprobe iwl3945 ?
[23:37] <Master> pipopooo: Oh, it can
[23:37] <pipopooo> Master, yes
[23:37] <acicula> err, sudo modprobe iwl3945
[23:37] <pipopooo> Master, modprobe works
[23:37] <pipopooo> Master, but iwlist wlan0 scan does not work
[23:37] <Dulak> Ellis: don't think there is a channel for that
[23:37] <Master> pipopooo: Modprobe wont UP the device you know
[23:37] <MagicJ> dulak - the documentation implies that it will only make a Linux live/bootable - will it work for my stand-alone
[23:38] <Ellis> ok just wondering thankx Dulak
[23:38] <pipopooo> Master, i know that
[23:38] <pipopooo> Master, modprobe works ifconfig wlan0 up does not work
[23:38] <Dulak> MagicJ: it should work for any iso afaik
[23:38] <pipopooo> Master, i modprobe -r iwl3945; modprobe iwl3954; ifconfig wlan0 up
[23:38] <MagicJ> dulak - ty - I have it dowbloading right now - so will brb - ty
[23:38] <pipopooo> Master, i know its a driver problem
[23:39] <syke> hi
[23:39] <pipopooo> Master, where can i find the drivers on the live usb
[23:39] <dwarder> how do i KILL AA in firefox?
[23:39] <acicula> pipopooo: what are the last few lines from dmesg?
[23:39] <acicula> if modprobe fails to load the drievr it should output it there
[23:39] <syke> a RAID Array I created in the DIsk Utility ina previous installation won't "start" in 10.04 due to "not enough components"
[23:39] <Akernedo> well, so, fridge and fire, i've launched a torrent with Transmission
[23:39] <Akernedo> the download has started
[23:39] <pipopooo> acicula, not sure on live usb at the moment
[23:39] <Master> pipopooo: Because you have no such file that tells it what ip etc to use or use dhcp. ifconfig will work anyhow but you should do it correctly by creating the file i know nothing about.
[23:40] <syke> the Disk Utility recognizes that drives as having RAID information on them, but clicing "Go to array" and then clicking "start" gives me the "not enough components message"
[23:40] <acicula> pipopooo: the driver is stored under /lib/modules/<somekernel>/net?
[23:40] <syke> clicking File->New->RAID array doesn't so what I want, either
[23:41] <pipopooo> acicula, not sure where it should go
[23:41] <syke> how can I mount/configure this previously working RAID0 array in this new install?
[23:41] <acicula> but the firmware that matches that driver may be different from the one thats distributed with the kernel you have in use, so you may have to change that also
[23:41] <Akernedo> but i'd prefer if i could use VUZE because it contains a torrent search motor
[23:41] <Master> pipopooo: modprobe --list | grep net
[23:42] <acicula> pipopooo: im a bit rusty on forcing drivers to load, er insmod ./driver.ko may work? not sure if you can get away without dropping the driver in the current kernels /lib/modules/kernel tree
[23:42] <nogo> 3
[23:42] <Master> acicula: modprobe -f (force) maybe
[23:43] <pipopooo> Master, http://pastebin.com/YFjzFXng
[23:43] <acicula> i think modprobe uses the module index not a module filename
[23:45] <pipopooo> Master, is it possible to copy all the *.ko wireless drivers ?
[23:45] <pipopooo> Master, cp  -rv kernel/drivers/net/wireless/* --> to destination
[23:46] <Master> pipopooo: That would be useless. Im guessing you only want to load the correct one ?
[23:46] <pipopooo> Master, yes
[23:46] <MagicJ> dulak - I do see in the documentation that I should be able to do what I need - for some reason apt-get in DEATHLY slow right now so have bot tested yet - will I be able to actually have an executable on my Linux partition that I can boot this from - that would be even better
[23:46] <rdavila> Hi folks, I've a question about the command "gnome-terminal", the command works fine here: gnome-terminal -e "vim" --tab, but with this: gnome-terminal -e "ls" --tab, the new window appear and disappear very quickly
[23:46] <computergeeksjw> I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 beta and I lost the power button and username dropdown (on the top-right corner) During the upgrade process, I got a notification that because something went wrong, something was unloaded from the taskbar. I thought that it was just being weird because it was in the middle of an upgrade, so I clicked Don't Reload. Now it's gone! :( How do I get it back?
[23:46] <Master> pipopooo: Then google what driver goes with your thing and load it
[23:46] <acicula> rdavila:try "ls | more", ls executes and terminates causing your terminal to terminate also
[23:47] <acicula> or "watch ls" if you want it to update
[23:47] <Dulak> MagicJ: not sure what you mean but probably not, unless you are talking boot a virtual machine using say vmware or virtualbox
[23:47] <vientox> i need ubuntu 10.10 rc!! :D
[23:48] <acicula> isnt there #ubuntu+1 still for 10.10 questions? (right click -> add indicator applet)
[23:48] <MagicJ> dulak - the utility I have is SpinRite whic I like to run on a regular basis.  I start it once a month before I go home.  I was hoping that I may be able to actually shutdown to it or something like that - but I am OK with installing the USB dongle too - the CD is becoming less and less of an option
[23:48] <rdavila> acicula: this works fine, but I need the output of the command and the prompt
[23:49] <rdavila> so, I need the same thing as if I've executed the command on the terminal
[23:49] <computergeeksjw> acicula: I didn't think it was a problem specific to 10.10
[23:49] <Dulak> MagicJ: Yeah you can't really do that, the usb flash is about the best you'll get
[23:49] <rdavila> is it possible?

[23:49] <acicula> rdavila: as i said, ls will terminate once run
[23:49] <thechitow> wtf happened
[23:49] <LjL> some spam. ignore it
[23:50] <acicula> you need to either start another program that doesnt terminate, hence the pipe more, or use watch to continously respawn ls
[23:50] <MagicJ> dulak - and that's fine - ty so much - it still is only at 60% downloaded - some weird cohgestion to that repository
[23:50] <rdavila> acicula: is it possible to maintain the terminal with the prompt open after that?
[23:50] <Dulak> MagicJ: ctrl-c and start it again, sometimes you'll get a crappy mirror
[23:50] <acicula> you want a prompt after ls is run?
[23:51] <MagicJ> dulak, I did that twice - it gets no better - at 80 % now - will report back when done/tested - ty
[23:51] <rdavila> acicula: yep, I need the same thing as when you execute the command on the terminal
[23:51] <rdavila> I need to simulate a user executing the command and viewing the output
[23:52] <acicula> im not entirely sure what it is you are trying to achieve
[23:53] <MagicJ> dulak - running unetbootin now - looks PERFECT!  thanks you are the best (or at least one of them)
[23:53] <computergeeksjw> acicula: I'm trying to get the power button and username dropdown back
[23:54] <computergeeksjw> I think that is related to the error I got that said a module had crashed and was unloaded from the taskbar
[23:54] <acicula> computergeeksjw: did you try rightclicking the panel ->add to panel -> indicator applet?
[23:54] <acicula> well its beta so maybe its broken, idunno
[23:55] <rdavila> acicula: I'm trying to bootstrap a project quicly, for example I need to open a new window with 3 tabs(shells), the first one open gvim, the second one starts up the development server, the last one run an specific command...
[23:55] <Master> computergeeksjw: Maverick ?
[23:55] <serard> hi all
[23:55] <serard> I have just installed postgresql, it is asking me for the password but I didn't set it
[23:56] <computergeeksjw> 10.10, whatever that's called. I think it's maverick
[23:57] <intrader> All, context menu of shell scripts does not offer 'Open' in 10.10. It does so in 9.04. In 10.04 shells scripts must be flagged as executable before the 'Open' context menu appears. When I first look at the properties of a shell script, I see a dash in the executable bit.Something for developers to look into?
[23:57] <IdleOne> !10.10
[23:59] <computergeeksjw> acicula: ThanksI it worked
[23:59] <st__> which synaptic version is in lucid?
[23:59] <computergeeksjw> You can tell I'm a newbie :)
[23:59] <computergeeksjw> Thanks
