| jappie | My usb headset freezes up my entire system (Lucid ubuntu + edubuntu 10.04 on aspireone), when I plug it in, I have to do a hard restart everytime. Also when I try to start up with my usb headset already in place, it freezes at the logo and I have to do a hard restart also. Any solutions? | 00:27 |
|---|---|---|
| ibuclaw | jappie, what type of headset? | 00:30 |
| ibuclaw | jappie, you can get system logs from /var/log/messages | 00:33 |
| jappie | ibuclaw, Logitech A-00008 | 00:33 |
| ibuclaw | and you can also try boot into recovery mode with the device plugged in. | 00:33 |
| ibuclaw | (system messages are all printed to the screen when you select that boot option, so if anything goes wrong, you'll be able to see/record it) | 00:34 |
| jappie | ibuclaw, I am at /var/log/messages, what do I look for? | 00:35 |
| ibuclaw | also, there should never really be a need to hard restart your system. | 00:35 |
| ibuclaw | if at a console prompt, Ctrl+Alt+Del should work. | 00:36 |
| jappie | My screen goes grey and everything freezes. I waited at least 10-15 min and nothing... | 00:36 |
| ibuclaw | if the freeze is a little more nested in, then you have RESIUB | 00:36 |
| jappie | checkin up on RESIUB.... | 00:37 |
| ibuclaw | while holding down Alt+PrintScreen, press the keys: R E I S U B | 00:37 |
| jappie | yeap...see it. Nice! | 00:38 |
| ibuclaw | R->raw input. E->soft kill all apps. I->hard kill all apps. S->sync all disk devices. U->unmount all disk devices. B->reboot. | 00:38 |
| ibuclaw | jappie, just remember 'Raising Elephants Is So Utterly Boring' | 00:39 |
| jappie | lol | 00:39 |
| ibuclaw | jappie, anyway, could you pastebin the log file? | 00:40 |
| ibuclaw | I wouldn't know what to look for unless I see it. | 00:40 |
| jappie | Yes, but where/ how do I pastebin? | 00:41 |
| ibuclaw | http://pastebin.com/ | 00:41 |
| ibuclaw | is there a bot in the channel? | 00:41 |
| ibuclaw | !paste | 00:41 |

| jappie | ibuclaw, thanks for ur patience! | 00:43 |
| ibuclaw | jappie, do you have alsa backports modules install by any chance? | 00:51 |
| ibuclaw | In System->Admin->Synaptic | 00:53 |
| ibuclaw | search for: linux-backports-modules-alsa | 00:53 |
| jappie | will take a look... | 00:54 |
| jappie | yes there are couple of version installed | 00:56 |
| ibuclaw | you should see something like this: http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/8764/screenshot2az.png | 00:56 |
| jappie | yes | 00:57 |
| ibuclaw | jappie, try uninstalling them and reboot. | 00:57 |
| ibuclaw | then see if the headset is still giving you trouble afterwards | 00:58 |
| jappie | all of them? | 00:58 |
| ibuclaw | jappie, how many are there? | 00:58 |
| ibuclaw | (there should only be 2 installed by my count) | 00:59 |
| jappie | I have versions: version 2.6.32.23, version 2.6.32.24 and version 2.6.32.25 installed | 01:00 |
| ibuclaw | heh. someone needs a spring cleaning... | 01:00 |
| jappie | and also linux-backports-modules-alsa-lucid-generic | 01:01 |
| ibuclaw | jappie, so long as they start with "linux-backports-modules-alsa" - yes, remove them. :-) | 01:01 |
| ibuclaw | they are optional addon modules, and not required for operation of your system. | 01:01 |
| stlsaint | woot... ibuclaw in help channel! :D | 01:02 |
| jappie | ok will do, restart, test and come back here to to let u know...thanxxx in advanced! | 01:02 |

| jappie | Hi ibuclaw, So that kind of worked. No more freezing, but no sound so far. I checked some settings in Pulseaudio but didn't really work with skype tst call | 01:25 |
| ibuclaw | bug #618155 | 01:26 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 618155 in linux (Ubuntu) "kernel 2.6.32-24 usb audio device causes cpu lockup (affects: 1) (heat: 73)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/618155 | 01:26 |
| ibuclaw | jappie, not sure about skype. Might have to ask someone else about that. Though it usually requires a bit of chicanery to get things up regardless of the device you are using. | 01:29 |
| ibuclaw | (or so I've heard) | 01:30 |
| aveilleux | Skype works fine for me | 01:30 |
| aveilleux | I don't use USB devices, though. | 01:30 |
| jappie | beside the usb headset, skype works fine... | 01:31 |
| jappie | brb | 01:31 |
| jappie | back... | 01:56 |
| stlsaint | jappie: welcome back | 01:57 |
| jappie | Ibuclaw, I have it working,. I needed to select the usb in volume control. It then worked with with most apps, except for skype. I needed to quit skype and restart, so now it si working. Thanx for the help! ...And everbody else as well1! | 01:58 |
| HorseloverFrost | Hello, I'm in need of some help. I'm trying to set up a dual boot OSX/Ubuntu on my Mac Pro with the two OSes on separate disks (Bay #1 OSX Bay #2 Ubuntu). I've tried using three different install procedures found on the web but still have not managed to get a bootable Ubuntu installation. After startup and selecting the linux install with rEFIt I get the penguin logo for a few seconds and then a black screen | 02:20 |
| HorseloverFrost | indefinitely. | 02:20 |
| HorseloverFrost | Also, on my first try I accidently installed the boot loader on my OSX disk. OSX still boots, but a phantom linux installation shows up on startup. Is there any way to get rid of it? | 02:22 |

| duanedesign | morning all | 08:37 |
| Puck` | good morning team | 08:56 |
| Puck` | anyone around? (: | 08:56 |
| Puck` | how do we start a script file with crontab if it's in a folder? /folder/./script.sh doesn't work :\ | 08:57 |
| geirha | Like that, or just /folder/script.sh I suspect it's running it, but it fails for other reasons. | 09:02 |
| Puck` | yeah, i got the error now | 09:04 |
| Puck` | thanks for the help geirha (: | 09:04 |
| geirha | It's a bad practice to put extensions on scripts btw | 09:04 |
| aveilleux | It is? | 09:05 |
| geirha | If you in the future find that the script is better written in another language, like python or php or whatever, you'll have to rename the script. If you don't have the extension, you only need to replace the file content. | 09:06 |
| geirha | You run grep as grep, not grep.elf | 09:06 |
| geirha | You'll find that most scripts in Ubuntu doesn't have extensions either | 09:07 |
| geirha | file /usr/bin/* | fgrep 'shell script' | 09:10 |

| mR0 | duanedesign: yes but how to set it up? :P | 12:12 |
| duanedesign | mR0: this should be made more clear in the readme. You can find this information under '3. Preset format'. Just put the presets in $HOME/.moc/eqsets and you are setup. | 12:21 |
| mR0 | i'll try & feedback here | 12:23 |
| mR0 | duanedesign where I can find it? | 12:25 |
| duanedesign | http://paste.ubuntu.com/506419/ | 12:29 |
| duanedesign | mR0: I found that but it was in the 2.5 version source code | 12:30 |
| mR0 | Im looking | 12:30 |
| duanedesign | according that you create a directory $HOME/.moc/eqsets/ and put the preset files in there | 12:33 |

| zank | Hi, i have a windows xp desktop machine nad after getting virus's one too many times despite all precautions i want to try ubuntu, the 10.10 hopefully coming out soon | 18:29 |
| zank | the problem is that right now my xp machine is used as basically a remote media machne machine with no keyboard or monitor, has a vnc client, and has some serious virus on it | 18:30 |
| zank | so basically i want a method to be able to put ubuntu on a bootable dvd or usb drive, and reboot compute and for it to wipe everything on my system, and install the ubuntu system, with a vnc server | 18:33 |
| zank | as in on first boot it should launch the vnc server | 18:33 |
| zank | is this possible? | 18:33 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | zank: you can alter the boot priority and idk about vnc servers | 18:42 |
