[00:00] <Out`Of`Control> lol
[00:00] <IsmAvatar> I'm having some trouble running the update manager for a routine update. dpkg is giving Input/output error. http://pastebin.com/vSLPSYJm
[00:00] <Xeno__> anyone?
[00:00] <blakkheim> Xeno__: i just said..
[00:00] <Xeno__> Oh
[00:00] <Xeno__> sorry
[00:00] <Xeno__> o_o
[00:01] <Xeno__> Hmmm.... okay thanks
[00:01] <Xeno__> I use Wubi after i insert a cd?
[00:01] <blakkheim> no
[00:01] <blakkheim> don't use wubi at all
[00:01] <Xeno__> okay well, it came as a RAR sooo
[00:02] <blakkheim> download an ubuntu iso from ubuntu.com, check the md5 to verify it, burn it to a cd, boot from it, follow the instructions
[00:02] <blakkheim> that's all you need to do
[00:03] <Xeno__> Ubuntu-10.04.1-desktop-i386.iso correct?
[00:03] <blakkheim> if you want the x86 version, yes
[00:03] <misreckoning> I'm having issues with sound on 10.10 beta, how to troubleshoot this? the sound is not continuous (makes stops, noises and repeats)
[00:03] <blakkheim> !10.10 > misreckoning
[00:03] <misreckoning> thanks
[00:04] <IsmAvatar> guys, do please help with my erroring Update Manager. http://pastebin.com/vSLPSYJm
[00:04] <Xeno__> Well, then.... what do i DO to this .rar file?
[00:04] <blakkheim> Xeno__: get rid of it
[00:04] <Xeno__> o_o
[00:04] <Xeno__> totally delete it?
[00:04] <blakkheim> you don't need wubi to install ubuntu
[00:04] <blakkheim> it just causes problems
[00:05] <Xeno__> can you give me a download link to the one i can burn on a CD please?
[00:05] <phil_in_london> wubi, sounds like that guy on charlie brown's security blanket :)
[00:05] <blakkheim> do you want x86 or x86_64?
[00:05] <blakkheim> Xeno__: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download
[00:06] <Xeno__> but,.... this is the one i downloaded
[00:06] <Xeno__> This is the one that had the Wubi.exe thing in it
[00:07] <blakkheim> so you already have a cd?
[00:07] <r3delmasry> question
[00:08] <Xeno__> yes i have a CD-R
[00:08] <r3delmasry> is there is diffrent between UBUNTU and LINUX MINT ?
[00:08] <blakkheim> Xeno__: just reboot your computer with the cd in then
[00:08] <blakkheim> r3delmasry: a little
[00:08] <r3delmasry> can u tell me more please ?
[00:09] <blakkheim> r3delmasry: mint is not supported here, but it's basically just ubuntu with a different theme and some preinstalled codecs
[00:09] <r3delmasry> thanks blakkheim
[00:10] <Xeno__> Blak didnt you say Wubi just caused problems?
[00:10] <nmd> i'm using ubuntu 10.10 and whenever i try to watch live streaming, the videos never load and when they rarely do it takes a long long time. anyone know why? (ex: livestream/justin.tv/livestream) everything's up to date and properly configured(afaik)
[00:10] <almoparmeg> hello
[00:10] <blakkheim> Xeno__: yes i did
[00:10] <blakkheim> !10.10 > nmd
[00:10] <Xeno__> So if i were to burn this .rar file on MY CD-R wouldnt it just start WUBI?
[00:10] <nmd> thanks.
[00:11] <blakkheim> Xeno__: get rid of the rar. i am not talking about it. the cd you burnt should have everything on it, you're not supposed to view the files from within windows, you're supposed to BOOT your computer from it
[00:11] <boxbeatsy> hi, is it possible to start up a number of applications/terminals and arrange them in a default order upon startup?
[00:11] <rez> Hey all
[00:11] <Xeno__> What im trying to tell you is that THAT download is the .rar file
[00:12] <Guest92510> anyone know a web cam program that is similar to many cam
[00:12] <blakkheim> Xeno__: the link i gave you is to download an iso, not a rar
[00:12] <IsmAvatar> My Update Manager is erroring. http://pastebin.com/vSLPSYJm Anyone know what's going on?
[00:12] <upgrdman> i have an ati hd 4250 built into my mobo. i also have a pci-e nvidia video card. i use the nvidia card for my monitors but want to use the ati onboard for my projector. the only VGA items i see from lspci is my nvidia card. my onboard video is not disabled in the bios. any ideas?
[00:12] <neo_> hola
[00:13] <Guest92510> Anyone ?????????
[00:13] <Xeno__> the download say::: Which is a: WinRAR Archive and it shows its a Winrar
[00:13] <tannerld> Guest92510: no
[00:13] <Xeno__> says**
[00:13] <Guest92510> :/
[00:13] <blakkheim> Xeno__: maybe your winrar is set as the default program to open iso files
[00:13] <neo_> alguen sabe como configurar mi router en modo repetidor?
[00:13] <blakkheim> Xeno__: but it is not a rar
[00:13] <blakkheim> !es | neo_
[00:13] <Xeno__> How do i change the settings
[00:13] <blakkheim> Xeno__: /join ##windows for windows questions
[00:14] <chien> no hay chicas aqui
[00:14] <blakkheim> chien: #ubuntu-es
[00:14] <boxbeatsy> hi, is it possible to start up a number of applications/terminals and arrange them in a default order upon startup?
[00:14] <Guest92510> all i want to do is just show an image, or video just like manycam i did have one on linux about a year ago but i have forgotten what it was called
[00:14] <chien> jajaja!
[00:15] <spinningcompass> boxbeatsy: That'll be the new x11_ocd module. ;)
[00:15] <boxbeatsy> spinningcompass: lol i'm guessing that's a joke
[00:15] <boxbeatsy> seriously though, it takes me ten minutes everytime i restart to reset up my windows
[00:16] <chien> viva gnu linux.!
[00:16] <spinningcompass> boxbeatsy: Well, it was an attempt at a joke. I don't know if it qualifies as a real joke.  I'll keep trying until I'm funny (or I die, whichever comes first.)
[00:16] <boxbeatsy> spinningcompass: haha, i probably would have found it funner if i wasnt so new to linux
[00:16] <boxbeatsy> x11 is the display service or something?
[00:16] <IsmAvatar> spinningcompass: I got it. The concept of x11 modules still being actively developed tipped me off ;-)
[00:16] <spinningcompass> hehe
[00:17] <boxbeatsy> so, there's no way then? :\
[00:18] <tensorpudding> boxbeatsy: adding it to startup applications usually creates only one
[00:18] <tensorpudding> it's possible to write a script to do it, and then add it to startup applications though, most likely
[00:18] <boxbeatsy> tensorpudding: mm i see.  but i want to basically: 1) start up 3 terminals on the second monitor and arrange the side by side, and then start up a browser in workspace 2 and a browser on the first monitor in workspace 1, and then pidgin and irssi on the first monitor in workspace1
[00:18] <chien> y viva la republique..!
[00:19] <boxbeatsy> is this sort of stuff possible?
[00:19] <blakkheim> !es > chien
[00:19] <bazhang> chien, stop that
[00:19] <rww> bazhang: whoa, deja vu
[00:20] <tensorpudding> boxbeatsy: a script wouldn't be able to specify which monitor to start them on
[00:20] <bazhang> rww, indeedy
[00:20] <Licuadora> How do I add programs to the side panel in Unity?
[00:20] <chien> salut a vous BLAKKHEIM.
[00:20] <tensorpudding> boxbeatsy: or how to arrange them
[00:20] <Jef91> I am trying to build something with checkinstall but it is throwing this error message - "dpkg-deb: parse error, in file '/var/tmp/tmp.tZtdRb9biy/package/DEBIAN/control' near line 3 package 'eina': field name `System' must be followed by colon" make install works fine, but I would like a .deb to be built. Any ideas?
[00:20] <almoparmeg> hello
[00:20] <bazhang> chien, english here, you know that.
[00:20] <boxbeatsy> tensorpudding: mmk thanks for your help!
[00:20] <almoparmeg> i need some help please
[00:20] <StevenSS> Can kpackageKit be a security vulnerability? It got on my system and I did not install it.
[00:21] <Ryen>  !ask | almoparmeg
[00:21] <bazhang> StevenSS, no
[00:21] <chien> no fluenty...
[00:21] <tensorpudding> boxbeatsy: at least, not with the standard window manager
[00:21] <StevenSS> How did it get on my system then?
[00:21] <tensorpudding> boxbeatsy: other window managers probably can do that
[00:21] <bazhang> chien, then join #ubuntu-es
[00:21] <Tm_T> StevenSS: it's default package manager of Kubuntu
[00:21] <almoparmeg> i'm new to linux world
[00:21] <bazhang> StevenSS, you using Kubuntu?
[00:21] <almoparmeg> and i live in egypt
[00:21] <gilaniali> In mac os x, most programs are stored under Applications, where are programs/scripts usually installed when you run apt-get
[00:21] <almoparmeg> but can't find any support near me
[00:21] <StevenSS> It can't be used by someone without root access to install stuff?  I am using Ubuntu.  I've never used KDE.  It just appeared today.  How did it get there?
[00:21] <tensorpudding> gilaniali: there are lots of places
[00:22] <almoparmeg> like training center or any thing like that
[00:22] <tensorpudding> gilaniali: usually /usr/bin though
[00:22] <almoparmeg> what i can do ?
[00:22] <bazhang> almoparmeg, ask here, there is also #ubuntu-eg
[00:22] <boxbeatsy> tensorpudding: mmk thank you!
[00:22] <almoparmeg> yes i see
[00:22] <almoparmeg> and i'm interested too

[00:22] <Licuadora> Is there an Unity tutorial?
[00:22] <Licuadora> I hate Unity interface, I really want REMIX back, but I guess I'll have to deal with it
[00:22] <Licuadora> so
[00:22] <Licuadora> anyone knows about Unity  interface?
[00:22] <FloodBot4> Licuadora: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:23] <Licuadora> How do I add programs in the side panel in Ubuntu 10.10 Unity?
[00:23] <IsmAvatar> I'm trying to run Update Manager but it's throwing an error. http://pastebin.com/vSLPSYJm Anyone know what's going on?
[00:23] <bazhang> almoparmeg, this is a support channel; did you have a support question? you might wish to read the ubuntu manual
[00:23] <tensorpudding> gilaniali: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard is a very vague overview of where things go
[00:23] <Licuadora> I AM NOT FLOODING!!
[00:23] <Mouldy_Punk> hey guys. I just set up spotify to run using WINE, but the system tray icon's messed up. It's got a solid background image instead of transparent. Does anybody know of a fix or a way to define custom tray icons for WINE programs?
[00:23] <bazhang> !manual | almoparmeg
[00:23] <StevenSS> I bet I've been hacke
[00:23] <almoparmeg> internet help me for more time like installing ubuntu and download it and install programs and still have more things to know
[00:23] <almoparmeg> not yet
[00:23] <bazhang> Licuadora, #ubuntu+1
[00:23] <JyZyXEL> does anyone know if gparted can make NTFS partitions with a working bootsector? (for winxp)
[00:23] <almoparmeg> just have book for learning Ubuntu
[00:23] <almoparmeg> and i read it
[00:23] <gilaniali> tensorpudding: are just the executables stored in /usr/bin or an entire app
[00:24] <tensorpudding> gilaniali: One of the things about OSX that makes it simpler to understand is that programs are usually bundled in an archive, and self-contained. In Linux this is not the case
[00:24] <almoparmeg> i have good idea
[00:24] <bazhang> almoparmeg, okay, well chat in #ubuntu-offtopic , as this is tech support only
[00:24] <almoparmeg> can we talk about it ?
[00:24] <Barridus_> is there any way to lock a child account's desktop so that she can't accidentally mess it up?
[00:24] <bazhang> almoparmeg, yes, in #ubuntu-offtopic , unless you have specific support requests
[00:24] <gilaniali> so i know the hg executable is stored in /usr/bin but where are the files of hg stored?
[00:24] <tensorpudding> gilaniali: In some sense, the binary executable *is* the entire app, in the Windows sense. However, in Linux, it is very common for binaries to be dynamically linked to a large number of shared libraries, instead of statically linked
[00:24] <StevenSS> Anyone know how KPackageKit got installed on my Gnome system?
[00:25] <almoparmeg> i'm thinking about making small company in Egypt for ubuntu
[00:25] <Ryen> !anyone | StevenSS
[00:25] <almoparmeg> to support it
[00:25] <gilaniali> tensorpudding: in Mac OS X, i am able to look at the individual files that make up hg, how do I find those files in ubuntu
[00:25] <bazhang> almoparmeg, this is not the channel to discuss that in
[00:25] <almoparmeg> and opening new lines here
[00:25] <Barridus_> StevenSS, try removing it in synaptic and see if it wants to take anything with it
[00:25] <almoparmeg> so
[00:25] <Ryen> !sa | almoparmeg
[00:25] <StevenSS> I removed it and it took nothing with it
[00:25] <almoparmeg> can you help me for this channel ?
[00:25] <blakkheim> gilaniali: dpkg -S pkgname
[00:25] <bazhang> almoparmeg, #ubuntu-offtopic for that
[00:26] <tensorpudding> gilaniali: The configuration of a binary might be in /etc, it might use "helper binaries" in /usr/libexec, and depending on what it does, the binary might end up in /usr/sbin or /usr/bin
[00:27] <Barridus_> StevenSS, heh odd.  i figure something that runs off KDE/the QT toolset but not sure why it would have happened that way
[00:27] <tensorpudding> gilaniali: For packages that you installed using Ubuntu's tools (Software Center/Synaptic/aptitude), you can use those tools to query the package, including what the contents of it are.
[00:28] <tensorpudding> gilaniali: For mercurial, something like dpkg -S mercurial | grep 'mercurial:'

[00:34] <Ryen> almoparmeg: I have never used that program, someone else might be able to help you.
[00:35] <almoparmeg> it's database engine
[00:35] <tensorpudding> almoparmeg: There's a decent chance Oracle has documentation
[00:35] <almoparmeg> yes
[00:35] <almoparmeg> but still have some problems can't resolved
[00:36] <tensorpudding> almoparmeg: Since it's not supported by Ubuntu or the Ubuntu community you're mostly on your own though
[00:36] <Braber01> how do i get irssi to go back to windwed mode?

[00:39] <Ryen> !anyone | sam555
[00:39] <sam555> I'm trying to remote from windows xp into ubuntu 9.04
[00:40] <Braber01> tensorpudding: i read that perl has it's roots in Unix so It might be worth learning however most windows people stay away form it
[00:40] <linux_inferno> HEY!  Having a problem with my software raid. Created it and filled it with data. mdadm said the raid was fine. Then I rebooted and now I can't mount it (/dev/md0)  -   When I cat /proc/mdstat   i get ( http://pastebin.com/xLAguv4x  )     WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO FIX THIS?
[00:40] <gilaniali> blakkheim: tensorpudding : so if I wanted to print out a list of installed programs (like program manager in windows), i should generally look at /usr/bin
[00:40] <phil_in_london> !ae | almoparmeg
[00:40] <sam555> i guess I shouldn't have hit the enter key so you could see my whole question
[00:40] <phil_in_london> :(
[00:41] <tensorpudding> gilaniali: if you want to know what is installed on the machine, you probably ought to dump the package list
[00:41] <IsmAvatar> gilaniali: I'm sure the Package Manager or Synaptic would be sufficient
[00:41] <gilaniali> tensorpudding: how do I do that
[00:41] <sam555> as it stands, i can only remote into the gui of the ubuntu workstation IF the user is logged in, not when there is the login screen
[00:41] <gilaniali> IsmAvatar: I am using a VPS with the command line only
[00:41] <tensorpudding> gilaniali: a lot of software that one might install isn't programs
[00:41] <sam555> i can ssh without the login screen, but I like to be able to use a gui
[00:42] <icarus-c> gilaniali, dpkg -l
[00:42] <IsmAvatar> gilaniali: in that case, `dpkg -l` would do in a heartbeat
[00:45] <kelopez> I have a question

[00:45] <RudyValencia> Why are my ttys displaying text shifted two character places right (like, I type off the right side of the screen and not only does the cursor disappear for two characters but the text I type doesn't appear)?
[00:46] <lapa> where is chinese bbs
[00:46] <blakkheim> !cn | lapa
[00:46] <kelopez> if I get the 10.10 RC, it can upgrade to the final?
[00:46] <icarus-c> RudyValencia, sounds like wrong screen resolution or misconfigured monitor
[00:46] <bazhang> kelopez, yes
[00:47] <kelopez> ok
[00:47] <RudyValencia> my monitor is a widescreen, set to display non-native modes at their normal aspect-ratio
[00:47] <melkor> Whats with the restart required everytime I upgrade my graphics drivers.  Shouldn't just restarting x be enough?
[00:47] <RudyValencia> melkor: part of the display driver is in the kernel
[00:47] <blakkheim> melkor: yes probably
[00:48] <icarus-c> melkor, usually you could just restart X
[00:48] <linux_inferno> I can't mount my software raid! I need it for school, can anyone assist? here is the pastebin of /proc/mdstat   http://pastebin.com/xLAguv4x
[00:49] <omnomnOMINOUS> (Sorry, I got disconnected...) I've set up a webserver on one of the boxes on my local network. Right now, we're just accessing it by ip address. How can we access it by hostname?
[00:49] <phil_in_london> http://hostname
[00:49] <boxbeatsy> omnomnOMINOUS: edit /etc/hosts with the server's ip and hostname
[00:49] <Jef91> anyone know what the command is to launch the gnome volume applet?
[00:50] <oblu> linux_inferno: i dont see any problem in your pastebin, devices are active and should be working fine.
[00:50] <MFen> what's the recommended way to install tor? it's not a standard package any more, and the recommended "sevenmachines" repo has been down for some time
[00:50] <omnomnOMINOUS> boxbeatsy: /etc/hosts on the server? or on each of the clients?
[00:50] <glithcd> how can i install 2 seperate versions of linux on the same machine with wubi?
[00:50] <boxbeatsy> MFen: i installed it yesterday with the instructions on torporject.org
[00:50] <boxbeatsy> MFen: download from their repo
[00:50] <linux_inferno> oblu when I try to mount I get   mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/md0,
[00:50] <linux_inferno>        missing codepage or helper program, or other error
[00:50] <linux_inferno>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[00:50] <linux_inferno>        dmesg | tail  or so
[00:51] <FloodBot4> linux_inferno: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:51] <linux_inferno> sorry for spam
[00:51] <Ryen> glithcd: That is impossible.
[00:51] <omnomnOMINOUS> boxbeatsy: /etc/hosts on the server already has a line: 127.0.1.1    balthazar-desktop
[00:51] <Ryen> glithcd: Wubi only allows a single install, you are going to have to dual-boot.
[00:51] <boxbeatsy> omnomnOMINOUS: it'd have to be each of the clients that you'd edit /etc/hosts for
[00:51] <glithcd> i have linux 10.04 installed and i wanted to install 64 bit to give it a try
[00:51] <melkor> linux_inferno: paste bin

[00:51] <phil_in_london> Jef91   gnome-volume-control
[00:51] <icarus-c> glithcd, you mean ubuntu 10.04
[00:51] <linux_inferno> melkor i know i hit paste in the wrong window
[00:52] <bazhang> !runlevels | almoparmeg
[00:52] <glithcd> theres no way at all?
[00:52] <MFen> boxbeatsy: ok, that didn't work for me the last time i tried it, but maybe their repo is back up. (both sevenmachines and that one were broken when i tried)
[00:52] <Jef91> phil_in_london it is gnome-volume-control-applet actually, thanks though
[00:52] <Jef91> just found it online
[00:52] <melkor> glithcd: there is a way, why do you ahve to use wubi?
[00:52] <glithcd> icarus-c, yes
[00:52] <phil_in_london> Jef91, hmm, thats what the icon says its running from my task bar.
[00:52] <almoparmeg> sorry don't understand you and i have Ubuntu 10.04 and need to change runlevel to 4
[00:53] <MFen> ok yeah
[00:53] <glithcd> melkor, because i didnt want to manually partition my hd
[00:53] <MFen> boxbeatsy: did you not get this? (  tor: Depends: libssl0.9.8 (>= 0.9.8m-1) but 0.9.8k-7ubuntu8.3 is to be installed )
[00:53] <krzysz00> anyone here know ow to fix the nbidia black screen proglem?
[00:53] <omnomnOMINOUS> boxbeatsy: hmm, the clients are all mixed; mostly windows, a few linux boxes, a few macs
[00:53] <bazhang> almoparmeg, you dont need to do that. see the bot statement above
[00:53] <kungfu12> Hi, I cannot see the network manager in the gnome panel. But when I change to the lubuntu enviroment, it is there. How can I make it visible in gnome again please?
[00:53] <almoparmeg> i know from 2 to 5 are similer
[00:53] <MFen> and if i install that exact version, i get ( E: Version '0.9.8m-1' for 'libssl0.9.8' was not found )
[00:53] <boxbeatsy> omnomnOMINOUS: ah, dont you have to setup DNS then? not sure sry
[00:53] <melkor> glithcd: As in you don't want another partition or you don't want to do it manually.  Gparted is really easy.
[00:53] <phil_in_london> hmm, even mixed boxes unc should be broadcast across the network
[00:54] <oblu> linux_inferno: have you executed some mdadm related commands after reboot ?
[00:54] <bazhang> almoparmeg, so there is no changing it
[00:54] <krzysz00> anyone here know ow to fix the nbidia black screen problem in 10.10?
[00:54] <boxbeatsy> MFen: i didn't get that.  one sec
[00:54] <almoparmeg> but i should change it to 4 because need to install Oracle database and told me need to change run level to 4 or 5
[00:54] <Guest95513> Is there any Linux package for decoding NAVTEX transmissions?
[00:54] <HK_> Hello, would anyone know how too fix
[00:54] <glithcd> melkor, i dont want to partition
[00:54] <omnomnOMINOUS> boxbeatsy: that's what i'm trying to figure out =)
[00:54] <tensorpudding> Ubuntu is supposed to use Upstart, but almost all daemons installed from packages are controlled using the old System V scripts. Is this for compatibility, or is there an intent to migrate them to Upstart?
[00:54] <melkor> krzysz00: have you considered ubuntu+1
[00:54] <bazhang> krzysz00, #ubuntu+1 for that
[00:54] <linux_inferno> oblu  I have not.   here is the full pastebin http://pastebin.com/ks7Q1ACF
[00:54] <HK_> Oops.
[00:54] <glithcd> melkor, thats why i went with wubi the first time
[00:54] <HK_> Would anyone know how to fix http://pastebin.com/mzgStjxv
[00:55] <almoparmeg> so, i need to change it to be able install this application
[00:55] <glithcd> i know there is a way to put more than 1 distribution of linux of a machine
[00:55] <IsmAvatar> Help please. The update manager started throwing this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/508347/
[00:55] <boxbeatsy> MFen: you on ubuntu?
[00:55] <MFen> boxbeatsy: yes, lucid
[00:55] <bazhang> almoparmeg, no you dont. I just told you
[00:55] <sam555> how do I remote into ubuntu from winxp from the log in screen?
[00:55] <boxbeatsy> MFen: https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en#ubuntu
[00:55] <gpoiriermorency> Woha that's a way better than searching for help throughout internet :)
[00:55] <boxbeatsy> MFen: and that didtn work?
[00:55] <HK_> Hey, iBeef.
[00:56] <linux_inferno> http://pastebin.com/ks7Q1ACF      Anyone have any idea's?
[00:56] <glithcd> i know there is a way to put more than 1 distribution of linux of a machine, how do i do that?
[00:56] <almoparmeg> Oracle Application really told me in installation requirments need to change run level to 4 or 5
[00:56] <mbeierl> I see that linux-image.* is in apt's NeverAutoRemove.  Is there any easy way to purge old kernels?
[00:56] <phil_in_london> sam555, you're probably going to need a vncserver thats running at bootup, find one and install it and put the command to start it in your rc.local.
[00:56] <iBeef> hi
[00:56] <melkor> glithcd: It is very easy if you partition it.  I think the alternate install cd will let you select the root directory.
[00:56] <MFen> boxbeatsy: yep, that's exactly what i'm reading right now, and it didn't work, because of that package version
[00:56] <MFen> the necessary libssl version isn't available in any repo i have
[00:56] <bazhang> almoparmeg, its already there.
[00:56] <sam555> phil_in_london: is this in addition to Unbuntu rdp?
[00:56] <almoparmeg> so
[00:56] <pmp6nl> Anyone know how to change the hard drive that is mounted on startup.  My computer keeps trying to mount a drive that has a different name than the one I want to load
[00:57] <almoparmeg> help me to change runlevel please
[00:57] <glithcd> melkor, thats the only way?? i cant have 2 wubi installations??
[00:57] <HK_> I'm having a problem installing openssh http://pastebin.com/mzgStjxv
[00:57] <tensorpudding> almoparmeg: Did it say why?
[00:57] <melkor> glithcd: I don't use wubi.
[00:57] <HK_> On ubuntu.
[00:57] <MFen> boxbeatsy: do you have 32-bits or 64-bits?
[00:57] <tensorpudding> almoparmeg: If it's asking you something like that, it sounds like there is decent odds that it was not designed with Ubuntu in mind
[00:57] <melkor> glithcd: I was just saying you could probably do it pretty easily with the alternate install cd.
[00:57] <boxbeatsy> MFen: meh, really not sure. sorry.  32 bit
[00:57] <glithcd> well do u know of another channel where i can get more specialized help?
[00:57] <almoparmeg> yes because i try to install Oracle 11gR2 database and need to change run level before installation
[00:57] <bazhang> almoparmeg, this is not red hat
[00:57] <MFen> boxbeatsy: i'm 64, that may be my problem
[00:57] <MFen> i'll try building from source
[00:58] <phil_in_london> sam555, yeah..it runs the same protocol (vnc) but it might allow you to control when it runs. I ran into the same problem with the login screen, found that the vnc is only started up after login, which is where you are now. So I installed a vncserver and put its start command into rc.local to ensure it was running before logon.
[00:58] <phil_in_london> sam555, that was for a client location, not here, so I don't have exact steps for you, but thats the general idea.
[00:58] <sam555> thanks so much phil_in_london !
[00:58] <tensorpudding> almoparmeg: Are you sure that the instructions you're following were written for Ubuntu?
[00:58] <MFen> boxbeatsy: just for kicks what do you have for dpkg -l libssl0.9.8 ?
[00:58] <oblu> linux_inferno: how long was the array alive before this happened ? and wasn there some sort of power outage ?
[00:58] <almoparmeg> no can be install but should change some values and install some packages only
[00:58] <dlublink> I can run mplayer -vo cvidix and it plays movies on my console, but they display badly cause it is on my tv via svideo. But when I run mplayer -vo xvidix in X ( kubuntu-desktop ) , it says "Couldn't find working VIDIX driver." What am I doing ?
[00:58] <almoparmeg> yes
[00:58] <shingen> hi.... anyone know how long a fsck should take on a 1TB drive?
[00:58] <melkor> pmp6nl: Its not clear what you are asking.  Are you refering to which driver you computer boots from?
[00:58] <bazhang> almoparmeg, so please stop asking to change runlevels
[00:58] <sam555> phil_in_london: it's just been such a pain trying to figure it out!
[00:58] <oblu> linux_inferno: havent' you upgraded anything ?
[00:59] <almoparmeg> ok,thank you
[00:59] <phil_in_london> sam555, when you have it running, you would be able to use a linux client's rdp to connect
[00:59] <linux_inferno> nope oblu, just rebooted.
[00:59] <sam555> phil_in_london: gotcha
[00:59] <boxbeatsy> MFen: name: libssl0.9.8 version:0.9.8k-7ubuntu
[01:00] <MFen> boxbeatsy: so, 64-bit tor must need libssl higher than what comes with ubuntu, but 32 bit tor only needs stock package
[01:00] <pmp6nl> melkor:  Hello, when my computer boots it says "(hard drive) not ready yet or not present".. this is because the hard drive use to be called 2nd HD and now its called 2ndHD... how do I make it so it mounts 2ndHD by default... thanks!
[01:00] <shingen> anyone have an fsck'n answer to my fsck question? lol... fsck on ext3, 1TB SATA 7200RPM for specs... just wondering if anyone has a ballpark
[01:00] <oblu> linux_inferno: do you have any /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf ?
[01:00] <sam555> phil_in_london: do you have a preference of servers? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC/Servers
[01:00] <phil_in_london> sam555, if in your discoveries you're are given a choice of different vnc's, my recommend could be ultravnc, I've used it for years now, its never let me down.
[01:00] <boxbeatsy> MFen: yea sounds right
[01:01] <sam555> phil_in_london: cool
[01:01] <melkor> pmp6nl: so it boots okay?
[01:01] <melkor> pmp6nl: is the hard drive you your fstab?
[01:01] <boxbeatsy> phil_in_london: is ultravnc faster than tightvnc for any reason?
[01:01] <Targeter> shingen: whats your question about fsck?
[01:01] <sam555> phil_in_london: can I use tightvnc as the viewer on the xp machine and ultra as the server on ubuntu?
[01:01] <phil_in_london> ha! which they don't even list on your page :)
[01:01] <MFen> well, building from source should fix it
[01:01] <robertow> estou com problemas no gnome-terminal
[01:02] <boxbeatsy> MFen: hopefully, good luck!
[01:02] <MFen> ty :)
[01:02] <pmp6nl> melkor:  I have two hard drives.  Ubuntu boots ok minus the error.. the hard drive that has issues is a second one.  Ill look at fstab.. give me a sec
[01:02] <HiddenKnowledge> Could someone help me with this problem I got after installing ubuntu? http://pastebin.com/mzgStjxv
[01:02] <phil_in_london> boxybeatsy, I don't really know about faster or not, I just know ultra has worked well for me, and I also have seen many people with issues using tightvnc, I've never used it myself.
[01:02] <HiddenKnowledge> I'm trying to get ssh working.
[01:02] <boxbeatsy> gotcha
[01:02] <shingen> Targeter: how long fsck will take to run on a drive that doesn't seem to have any problems, I ran fsck to be safe... standard 7200RPM SATA 1TB drive, ext3... not sure on how many files...
[01:03] <linux_inferno> oblu http://paste.pocoo.org/show/272539/
[01:03] <Targeter> how full is it
[01:03] <Targeter> ?
[01:03] <shingen> Targeter: 80% or so
[01:04] <Targeter> 1TB drives and up typically take a while. i have 2 and they usually take some time
[01:04] <Targeter> yea at that full theres probably a lot of files on it
[01:04] <phil_in_london> sam555, take note on that page you gave me, Vino is installed by default, you'll want to remove it in order to use anything else.
[01:04] <shingen> Targeter: so how long is awhile? :)  2 hours, 4 hours?  30 minutes?
[01:04] <sam555> HiddenKnowledge: what's the issue?
[01:04] <PeterD> Hey, does anybody know how to make a wireless module load on boot?
[01:04] <sam555> phil_in_london: wow, thanks for that!
[01:04] <DaZ> shingen: few minutes
[01:04] <HiddenKnowledge> sam555: http://pastebin.com/mzgStjxv
[01:04] <phil_in_london> PeterD, do you know how to make it run from a command line after boot has occurred?
[01:05] <icarus-c> shingen, in minutes
[01:05] <PeterD> Yes
[01:05] <pmp6nl> melkor: fstab is incorrect, would I just manually edit it?  What about the UUID?  Would it be the same since its the same HD just a different name
[01:05] <mohadib> will totem ever work?
[01:05] <phil_in_london> PeterD, put same commands into your /etc/rc.local
[01:05] <mohadib> will it ever actually play anything
[01:05] <Targeter> i know for me it takes some time but i have 50gb images that it seems to parse slowly through
[01:05] <mohadib> or will ubuntu keep shipping it just to piss people off?
[01:05] <shingen> cuz I did it in gparted, so everything is hidden... now that I see the actual command, I'll probably toss on a -v to see the crap scroll off my screen, lol
[01:05] <PeterD> The same commands for making it run through the command line? phil_in_london ?
[01:05] <Targeter> lol @ totem. vlc is where its at
[01:05] <icarus-c> mohadib, what a good question.  what are you trying to play, and do you even have the codec
[01:05] <Acidphase> maybe someone can shed some light on this, using  2.6.35-22-generic #33-Ubuntu , OpenGL version string: 1.4 , can't seem to get direct rendering going... (yes I have the dri module set in the xorg.conf)
[01:06] <mohadib> icarus-c: it has never played anything in all the years it has been shipped
[01:06] <icarus-c> Targeter, vlc is just mplayer core with a Qt interface
[01:06] <phil_in_london> PeterD, yes, rc.local will process any command (same as if you'd typed in on the command line). The big difference here is that it will do those commands during boot :)
[01:06] <mohadib> icarus-c: dvd, avi, mpeg..flv, it wont play anything
[01:06] <sam555> HiddenKnowledge: did you change the ssh config file after installing ssh server?
[01:06] <Acidphase> glxinfo | grep direct
[01:06] <Acidphase> direct rendering: No (LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT set)
[01:06] <Targeter> shhhhh
[01:06] <phil_in_london> PeterD, you'll need sudo to edit the rc.local.
[01:06] <DaZ> icarus-c: not really
[01:06] <PeterD> Right
[01:06] <mohadib> icarus-c: mplayer and xine will play everything, so i assume the codecs are in place
[01:06] <sam555> HiddenKnowledge: actually are you trying to set up an ssh server, or trying to ssh into something?
[01:06] <melkor> pmp6nl: you can list the drives by uuid in your /dev/disk-by/... then you can fix your fstab either using the name or the uuid.  UUID's can change when you format it.
[01:06] <shingen> if I was to cancel an fsck, would it cause any harm to my drive if it was doing something?  gparted is hiding all output, so I can't see what's going on... so I'm inclined to stop it and start from cli instead...
[01:06] <outer_space> whats the best wireless service that works with ubuntu?
[01:06] <Targeter> im in my own dream world with vlc ;)
[01:06] <icarus-c> mohadib, mplayer & xine are of another family than totem.  totem uses gstreamer,  so you need those gstreamer plugins
[01:07] <phil_in_london> PeterD, alternatively, if you'd like to keep things nice and neat, you could write your own script to bring your wireless up and just call it from rc.local.
[01:07] <icarus-c> and ffmpeg
[01:07] <mohadib> icarus-c: so whats the point of shipping it
[01:07] <HiddenKnowledge> sam555: I didn't change anything. I tried restarting the openssh-server and that produces a similair error.
[01:07] <mohadib> if it never works out of the box
[01:07] <PeterD> Script writing, one thing I've never done.
[01:07] <sam555> HiddenKnowledge: what version of ubuntu?
[01:07] <ovy>  /join #linux-mint
[01:07] <melkor> pmp6nl: you can edit it, make a backup its pretty straight forward
[01:07] <ovy> hm...
[01:07] <mohadib> icarus-c: i dont get why gnome/ubuntu doesnt include a working player or the codics
[01:07] <PeterD> There aren't many commands though. What would I have to do?
[01:07] <sam555> HiddenKnowledge: the reason I ask, is all I did was install the ssh server, and it worked
[01:07] <icarus-c> mohadib, totem is fine as long as you have the codec.
[01:07] <PeterD> The less crude the better, I think.
[01:07] <sam555> HiddenKnowledge: i restarted the machine and got in
[01:07] <pmp6nl> melkor: ok thanks.  I had switched it from ntfs to ext4 so ill find the UUID... thanks!
[01:07] <HiddenKnowledge> sam555: I know it works fine for me too, noramlly.
[01:08] <HiddenKnowledge> normally*
[01:08] <sam555> gotcha
[01:08] <shingen> pmp6nl: blkid /dev/blah would be easier to find the UUID
[01:08] <sam555> i think beyond this point, I can't help, but definetly ask around here about that error
[01:08] <phil_in_london> PeterD, its very simple  use gedit to make em, enter each of your commands on a line by itself. Save the file. Then locate the file in its folder and   chmod a+x myfile     that will allow it to be executed.
[01:08] <mohadib> icarus-c: well, :D my car works fine when it has an engine
[01:08] <sam555> i think beyond this point, I can't help, but definetly ask around here about that error, HiddenKnowledge
[01:08] <mohadib> oddly enough it shipped with one
[01:08] <PeterD> Save as .sh?
[01:08] <HiddenKnowledge> sam555: Thanks anyway.
[01:09] <phil_in_london> PeterD, some people like to do that yes, so they can keep track of them.
[01:09] <sam555> HiddenKnowledge: sorry
[01:09] <HiddenKnowledge> sam555: No problem. :)
[01:09] <phil_in_london> PeterD, what I do is create the script, chmod it and then run it on the command line...if everything works fine then I edit rc.local to call that script :)
[01:09] <HiddenKnowledge> So anyone else that would happen to know what's causing this?
[01:09] <bazhang> mohadib, support question?
[01:09] <mohadib> ?
[01:10] <Acidphase> maybe someone can shed some light on this, using  2.6.35-22-generic #33-Ubuntu , OpenGL version string: 1.4 , can't seem to get direct rendering going... (yes I have the dri module set in the xorg.conf)
[01:10] <mohadib> bazhang: yes
[01:10] <almoparmeg> what's the problem if you tell me how to change Runlevels ?
[01:10] <icarus-c> mohadib, it does ship with some codecs by default, but free ones only
[01:10] <glicks> hey, will the next version of ubuntu come with libreoffice?
[01:10] <bazhang> !runlevels | almoparmeg please read carefully
[01:10] <Pentium3> I recently took on a kernel update on my laptop (gateway MA3) and now on boot it says "Target filesystem doesnt have /sbin/init." and it dumps me to BusyBox, can I please get some help?
[01:11] <injekt> Is there some kind of trick to setting up postgres? Everytime I install and start my logs give me "incomplete startup packet" and a "psql: could not connect to server: No such file or directory"
[01:11] <phil_in_london> injekt, you probably should try #postgres
[01:11] <almoparmeg> really in know but my application told my my current runlevel is 2 and need to change it to 4 or 5
[01:11] <PeterD> One more question phil_in_london, I'm on Xubuntu and I don't see an rc.local
[01:11] <almoparmeg> what i can do now ?
[01:11] <Myrth> hi, I've cron.1234 files appearing in my home folder.. is there a setting to disable this?
[01:11] <tpae> ubuntuu rox
[01:11] <phil_in_london> PeterD, not in /etc ?
[01:11] <bazhang> almoparmeg, about what
[01:11] <PeterD> No
[01:11] <icarus-c> Pentium3, did you change hard disk configuration / kernel parameters lately?
[01:12] <phil_in_london> hmm, so what is Xubuntu then? whats its derivation?
[01:12] <almoparmeg> about change my current level from 2 to 4 or 5 to be able install my appliaction
[01:12] <PeterD> It uses XFCE for the window manager
[01:12] <icarus-c> phil_in_london, Xfce/Ubuntu
[01:12] <PeterD> Lighterweight
[01:12] <phil_in_london> ah, makes sense
[01:12] <bazhang> almoparmeg, you should have read the statement above carefully.
[01:13] <Pentium3> icarus-c: no.
[01:13] <phil_in_london> PeterD, got a search feature on this Xbuntu, a file search feature?
[01:13] <mohadib> phil_in_london: locate or find
[01:13] <PeterD> It's crude
[01:13] <almoparmeg> i have read it and really know no different between runlevel 2 or 3 or 5
[01:13] <PeterD> Limited to the directory thunar is in
[01:13] <almoparmeg> i know really
[01:13] <olulela> hell, where can i see the difference between generic and server kernels?
[01:13] <icarus-c> almoparmeg, but you still ask that
[01:13] <almoparmeg> but my appliaction need to change it
[01:13] <olulela> hello*
[01:13] <bazhang> almoparmeg, so stop asking for it.
[01:14] <almoparmeg> i can't install it without change current 2 to 4
[01:14] <icarus-c> almoparmeg, what app is it
[01:14] <phil_in_london> PeterD, dunno, maybe you have an rc.local located somewhere else, maybe you have a local file in the rc.d folder, I'm really unsure.
[01:14] <mohadib> almoparmeg: init 4
[01:14] <almoparmeg> oracle11gr2 database
[01:14] <IsmAvatar> Help :-( The update manager started throwing this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/508347/
[01:14] <almoparmeg> i do it
[01:14] <PeterD> I'll do some searching
[01:14] <bazhang> almoparmeg, sure you can. that's for red hat. oracle is geared towards red hat
[01:14] <almoparmeg> and make restart but still 2
[01:14] <PeterD> Thanks for the help phil_in_london
[01:14] <mohadib> almoparmeg: you can set the deault runlevel
[01:14] <phil_in_london> PeteD
[01:14] <almoparmeg> ok thank you
[01:14] <icarus-c> almoparmeg, then probably their install facility is broken
[01:14] <almoparmeg> how ?
[01:15] <phil_in_london> PeterD, does your Xubuntu have Startup Applications in your System Admin?
[01:15] <mohadib> in /etc/initrc
[01:15] <PeterD> Yes
[01:15] <mohadib> iirc
[01:15] <icarus-c> almoparmeg, at least for ubuntu
[01:15] <PeterD> Ahhh
[01:15] <phil_in_london> PeterD, then you could just create the script anywhere and add it to that :)
[01:15] <PeterD> I think I remember
[01:15] <PeterD> Yes
[01:15] <almoparmeg> but i like ubuntu
[01:15] <HiddenKnowledge> How is it possible I can't update my system with openssh-server intalled? :/
[01:15] <phil_in_london> PeterD, don't forget the chmod a+x myscript.sh part.
[01:15] <almoparmeg> and wish to use it for ever
[01:15] <PeterD> I wrote that bit down
[01:16] <almoparmeg> no redhat or other
[01:16] <tensorpudding> almoparmeg: according to the internet, oracle 11g doesn't support ubuntu, so if you want to make it easy use a platform that oracle supports, or use a database that supports Ubuntu
[01:16] <almoparmeg> so, what's the solution now
[01:16] <PeterD> There's nothing special with writing the script is there?
[01:16] <almoparmeg> yes yes
[01:16] <olulela> hello, where i can see the difference between the generic and server kernels?
[01:16] <phil_in_london> PeterD, nope, if it works on a command line you can put it in a script.
[01:16] <almoparmeg> you are right
[01:16] <PeterD> just command <enter> next comment etc.
[01:16] <DualProxy> almoparmeg: try telinit q 4
[01:16] <PeterD> K
[01:16] <sam555> how does one disable vino?
[01:16] <phil_in_london> PeterD, just don't use a windows editor for it.
[01:17] <Pentium3> icarus-c: hello?
[01:17] <phil_in_london> PeterD, it will work, but it will barf up carriage returns as errors :)
[01:17] <PeterD> Lol
[01:18] <phil_in_london> sam555, got synaptic on your system?
[01:18] <almoparmeg> i have try it
[01:18] <icarus-c> Pentium3, yes?
[01:18] <HiddenKnowledge> PeterD: If you would put it all on one line it wold work right? :P
[01:18] <sam555> phil_in_london: yes
[01:18] <shingen> if I changed fstab to check volumes on boot would it check every time or every 32nd time or whatever?   cuz I just ran fsck from cli and noticed that one of my partitions was mounted 48 times and never fscked
[01:18] <almoparmeg> and write runlevel in terminal told me this result  N 2
[01:18] <PeterD> Har
[01:19] <sam555> phil_in_london: however, I'm ssh'ing into the system as we speak, so is there a terminal command, or should I just stop the service
[01:19] <phil_in_london> sam555, fire it up, uninstall it, if you want it back, hmm...lets...see...oh yeah, synaptic, fire it up, install it.
[01:19] <almoparmeg> i think it's still use 2
[01:19] <MFen> boxbeatsy: well, tor built and installed. now i just need to do the same thing to vidalia...
[01:19] <almoparmeg> not 4
[01:19] <phil_in_london> ah
[01:19] <sam555> phil_in_london: HA
[01:19] <bazhang> almoparmeg, it does.
[01:19] <Pentium3> icarus-c: I havent changed anything.
[01:19] <PeterD> Ah phil_in_london do I need to i?nclude sudo ? Or chmod a+x takes care of that
[01:19] <phil_in_london> sam555, you can do the apt stuff.
[01:19] <phil_in_london> PeterD, you'll only have to do sudo if you are creating it in a folder that you don't have edit rights to.
[01:19] <sam555> phil_in_london: yet so is the an apt-get uninstall?
[01:19] <almoparmeg> N 2 meaning runlevel 2 or 4 ?
[01:19] <HiddenKnowledge> PeterD: If you get a access denied you will need sudo :P
[01:19] <almoparmeg> i mean the current
[01:19] <tony83> hi
[01:20] <PeterD> K
[01:20] <shingen> targeter: if I changed fstab to check volumes on boot would it check every time or every 32nd time or whatever?   cuz I just ran fsck from cli and noticed that one of my partitions was mounted 48 times and never fscked
[01:20] <DualProxy> almoparmeg: did you use `sudo`? but as he said if teh package does not support ubuntu, your out of luck/
[01:20] <icarus-c> shingen, it would check every boot and do a force check after maximum mount count
[01:20] <Targeter> yup what he said
[01:20] <shingen> icarus-c: sounds like what I need :)
[01:20] <icarus-c> shingen, force check would take some time, and other is  quick
[01:21] <sam555> phil_in_london: got it http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6001309
[01:21] <phil_in_london> sam555 apt-get remove
[01:21] <sam555> HA!
[01:22] <sam555> phil_in_london: would it be possible to just stop the vino service, install another vncserver to test before removing vino?
[01:22] <olulela> where can i see the difference between generic/server/virtual kernels?
[01:23] <theorem> olskolirc: on a server with low latency requirements
[01:23] <PeterD> phil_in_london, how do I test the script?
[01:23] <phil_in_london> sam555, I think it ties in with inet, I'm not sure of how to just rip it out of there and leave it. I have really studied the intracacies of 2.6 yet. But if you aren't using it at moment, its just as easy to apt-get install vino after your test.
[01:23] <Acidphase> maybe someone can shed some light on this, using  2.6.35-22-generic #33-Ubuntu , OpenGL version string: 1.4 , can't seem to get direct rendering going... (yes I have the dri module set in the xorg.conf)
[01:23] <olskolirc> what theorem ?
[01:23] <bazhang> Acidphase, maverick?
[01:24] <phil_in_london> PeterD, reboot your computer, and then run your script and see if wireless comes back up (or whatever it was supposed to do)
[01:24] <HiddenKnowledge> PeterD: Would you happen to know how to fix http://pastebin.com/8gMhQTMR ?
[01:24] <HiddenKnowledge> Oops.
[01:24] <phil_in_london> PeterD, to run your script, just go to its folder and type   ./myscript.sh
[01:24] <HiddenKnowledge> Tab completion..
[01:24] <CJO> hi im trying to install java 6 jre
[01:24] <sam555> phil_in_london: that's true, thanks!  you are so helpful!

[01:26] <CJO> huh
[01:26] <bazhang> Acidphase, this is not the channel for it. be patient please
[01:26] <CJO> archive.canonical.com is the repo
[01:26] <phil_in_london> boxbeatsy, the best lesson you'll learn tonight is when PeterD comes back in here saying his box is on fire :)
[01:26] <bazhang> CJO, correct the partner repo
[01:26] <HiddenKnowledge> Lol.
[01:26] <mbeierl> no matter what howto I follow I still can't get anything other than 320x240 for boot and all my ttys in lucid.  ideas, please?
[01:27] <boxbeatsy> well, your suggestions seem to be awfully accurate then haha
[01:27] <Pentium3> I recently took on a kernel update on my laptop (gateway MA3) and now on boot it says "Target filesystem doesnt have /sbin/init." and it dumps me to BusyBox, can I please get some help?
[01:27] <Acidphase> you mean I cant act like a 4 year old and stomp my feet and huff and puff till I get my way?

[01:28] <phil_in_london> HiddenKnowledge, I don' t know anything about Maverick yet.
[01:28] <CJO> is debian the defualt repo
[01:28] <bazhang> CJO, no
[01:28] <HiddenKnowledge> phil_in_london: Maverick? What do you mean?
[01:29] <phil_in_london> HiddenKnowledge, quoting only one of your posted lines : Get:1 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ maverick-security/main libssl-dev i386 0.9.8o-1ubuntu4.1 [2,012kB]
[01:29] <CJO> what's the $(lsb_release -sc) partner" »
[01:29] <PeterD> Lol phil_in_london
[01:29] <lotrpy> Hello, I rm -r /var/cache when disk is full(now I know it's wrong). when apt-get dist-upgrade, I can't update or remove "rhythmbox", is there anyway to fix this? 8.04 LTS
[01:29] <PeterD> The only big mistake I've ever made was deleting my xorg
[01:30] <PeterD> I needed a change of pants after that
[01:30] <phil_in_london> PeterD, I did that, and it was only about 2 months ago. I'm okay now, I gave up the vodka.
[01:30] <PeterD> Lol
[01:30] <HiddenKnowledge> phil_in_london: Uh.. 0_0 I'm running ubuntu.
[01:30] <Acidphase> ok back
[01:30] <phil_in_london> HiddenKnowledge, yes you are, but from your post it looks like you perhaps upgraded to version 10.10
[01:31] <phil_in_london> I think thats the #ubuntu+1  channel
[01:31] <PeterD> Whenever I run the script through the command line I get a "No such file or directory" Still works like a charm though. Should I be concerned?
[01:31] <HiddenKnowledge> O.
[01:31] <PeterD> Ahh
[01:31] <HiddenKnowledge> I just want a simple ubuntu install.
[01:31] <phil_in_london> PeterD, got any extra lines in there? blank line, maybe an extra enter?
[01:31] <PeterD> Yes
[01:31] <PeterD> I didn't realize I didn't have to cd
[01:31] <shingen> 10.10 is still beta?
[01:31] <phil_in_london> PeterD, thats kinda the same thing I was saying about carriage returns.
[01:32] <sandyd> HiddenKnowledge: beta is always not simple
[01:32] <HiddenKnowledge> I didn't want beta, lol.
[01:32] <sandyd> shingen: until 10th obtober
[01:32] <PeterD> There we go
[01:32] <PeterD> Thanks phil_in_london :D
[01:32] <HiddenKnowledge> How do I downgrade?
[01:32] <Giant81> well technically 10.10 is RC
[01:32] <sandyd> HiddenKnowledge: you cant
[01:32] <PeterD> So much simpler than all the other BS broadcom wanted me to do
[01:32] <phil_in_london> HiddenKnowledge, I don=
[01:32] <sandyd> HiddenKnowledge: it comes out on the 10th anyways as stable
[01:33] <phil_in_london> I don't know how you downgrade.
[01:33] <HiddenKnowledge> :/
[01:33] <HiddenKnowledge> I see.
[01:33] <phil_in_london> I know that 10.04 comes with ssl installed, so if 10.10 don't have ssl stock yet, then its not ready.
[01:33] <mbeierl> seriously, does anyone know how to get regular tty consoles back?  my res is like 20x12 characters and unusable
[01:33] <olskolirc> how can you guys stand gnome/ubuntu when kubuntu rocks and is more powerful and customizable
[01:33] <HiddenKnowledge> Thanks, phil_in_london.
[01:33] <CJO> I added the repo via sudo add-apt-repository “deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner and it said I need an argument
[01:33] <Pentium3> I recently took on a kernel update on my laptop (gateway MA3) and now on boot it says "Target filesystem doesnt have /sbin/init." and it dumps me to BusyBox, can I please get some help?
[01:33] <shingen> 10.10 doesn't have openssl libs? wow... lol
[01:33] <bazhang> olskolirc, offtopic here
[01:33] <phil_in_london> HiddenKnowledge, is this a new install?
[01:34] <IsmAvatar> Help please, I have an Update manager error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/508347/ :-(
[01:34] <HiddenKnowledge> phil_in_london: Yes, used unetbootin.
[01:34] <HiddenKnowledge> phil_in_london: Which failed kindoff.
[01:34] <phil_in_london> HiddenKnowledge, why not just start over, install 10.04 but don't do the apt-get upgrade.
[01:34] <KKKLined> Hi friends.
[01:34] <phil_in_london> you'll have ssl all ready to use if you do that.
[01:34] <sandyd> CJO: it doesn't work. add it on a new line after running"sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list"
[01:34] <HiddenKnowledge> I'll just wait a couple of days.
[01:34] <phil_in_london> I don't know what unetbootin is.
[01:35] <KKKLined> My rectum is soooo rotten...
[01:35] <HiddenKnowledge> phil_in_london: It's a tool you can use to install linux without a dvd/cd.
[01:35] <phil_in_london> KKKLined, you should stop using windows
[01:35] <HiddenKnowledge> phil_in_london: Even from windows.
[01:35] <Snakkah> Hello. My MSN account isn't working on Pidgin, and I also can't sign into my Hotmail (same address) from www.msn.com. Is this a problem on their end, or mine? Pidgin gives me the message "Unable to authenticate: Authentication Failure"
[01:35] <sandyd> Snakkeh: time to change your password
[01:35] <phil_in_london> HiddenKnowledge, and it apparently works great too ;)
[01:35] <Ken8521> Snakkah, well if it's happening in two different places, it's likely not pidgin... i'd say its your password
[01:36] <sandyd> Snakkeh: or to recover it
[01:36] <HiddenKnowledge> phil_in_london: If you aren't a noob, lol. It's not my pc.
[01:36] <Snakkah> sandyd, account hacked?
[01:36] <Meg> hi I tried finding a solution to my question last night and got a few ideas but came to a dead-end, trying to try ubuntu on my satellite M35X
[01:36] <phil_in_london> HiddenKnowledge, do the cd, it works.
[01:36] <sandyd> Snakkeh: could bew
[01:36] <phil_in_london> I gotta go set some sh!t on fire
[01:36] <sandyd> Snakkeh: it has recovery questions still. use them
[01:36] <shadi> hi
[01:36] <HiddenKnowledge> phil_in_london: the unetbootin works too :P I used it on my laptop.
[01:37] <IdleOne> !language > phil_in_london
[01:37] <HiddenKnowledge> phil_in_london: But gtg, c ya.
[01:37] <shingen> HiddenKnowledge: I haven't used a CD in years... unetbootin rocks :)
[01:37] <Meg> anyone know how to get it to work on a toshiba?
[01:37] <HiddenKnowledge> shingen: Yup. :)
[01:37] <shadi> how could I have yahoo messanger in ubuntu ????
[01:37] <icarus-c> Snakkah, i heard that millions of msn accounts were screwed by a security update from Microsoft
[01:38] <sandyd> shadi: doesnt pidgin support yahoo?
[01:38] <rambo2_981> what's the magic sequence to save my gnome desktop so it persists between boots?
[01:38] <Snakkah> icarus-c, when? O_o
[01:38] <icarus-c> Snakkah, a few weeks ago?
[01:38] <Snakkah> icarus-c, this just happened today
[01:38] <PeterD> Time to test it out for reals
[01:38] <shadi> ya it does but it the first time to use it
[01:38] <icarus-c> Snakkah, well maybe it come late for you, or just temporarily out of service
[01:39] <sandyd> shadi: you cant run it in linux
[01:39] <Meg> anyone, suggestions for getting my toshiba to start ubuntu so I can try it from the CD I made
[01:39] <sandyd> shadi: you can probably run it in WINE, lemme check
[01:39] <sandyd> shadi: but its still way better to use pidgin
[01:39] <icarus-c> shadi, yahoo doesn't release a linux version of their client. but there are many free and open source clients for linux,  such as pidgin, empathy, kopete
[01:40] <rambo2_981> shadi, use pidgen
[01:40] <IsmAvatar> Help! Updates are failing. http://paste.ubuntu.com/508347/
[01:40] <AdrienBrody> I wanna change my primary partition to another, how can I do that?
[01:40] <Meg> is it possible to partition a hard drive without a reformat
[01:41] <shingen> yahoo messenger can definitely be run in wine, no special dlls needed... it's not bloatware like office :)
[01:41] <CJO> I scrolled down all the way in the text file in the edior and the list shows starting with deb-src http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu lucid partner
[01:41] <AdrienBrody> Meg: parted
[01:41] <sandyd> shingen: only v8
[01:41] <shadi> i'm using pidgen but it runs slowly
[01:41] <sandyd> shingen: v9 is garbage
[01:41] <HiddenKnowledge> PeterD: Did it work? :)
[01:41] <PeterD> Yessss
[01:41] <HiddenKnowledge> phil_in_london: See, his pc is not on fire.
[01:41] <HiddenKnowledge> :P
[01:41] <rambo2_981> shadi, NOTHING runs faster with wine
[01:41] <sandyd> shingen: you enabled visual effects?
[01:42] <PeterD> No, but my house is, HiddenKnowledge
[01:42] <PeterD> :O
[01:42] <HiddenKnowledge> 0_0
[01:42] <PeterD> Hahahaha
[01:42] <HiddenKnowledge> rambo2_981: Yes it does.
[01:42] <CJO> "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ is all I need to ad
[01:42] <shingen> sandyd: heck no...  :)
[01:42] <CJO> *add
[01:42] <rambo2_981> wine is a dog
[01:42] <PeterD> Many thanks phil_in_london  :)
[01:42] <AdrienBrody> My system is booting /dev/sda3, but I wanna copy all files from /dev/sda3 to /dev/sda4 and boot from /dev/sda4
[01:42] <HiddenKnowledge> rambo2_981: It's not a dog.
[01:42] <rambo2_981> network apps don't work right (not all)
[01:42] <AdrienBrody> is it possible?
[01:42] <rambo2_981> yeah it is
[01:42] <rambo2_981> i refuse to use it
[01:43] <sandyd> shingen: gyachie?
[01:43] <HiddenKnowledge> rambo2_981: Well, idk if you refuse but it's still not a dog.
[01:43] <sandyd> shingen: try that
[01:43] <Snakkah> Even Hotmail in Evolution is showing the account isn't active.
[01:43] <shingen> wine has overhead, but it's definitely not a dog....
[01:43] <Snakkah> Does this mean it's most likely a problem on Microsoft's end?
[01:43] <Snakkah> I hope so.
[01:43] <rambo2_981> you wanna tell me how wine can sim an app and make it run faster than windows? no way
[01:43] <HiddenKnowledge> rambo2_981: Wine is not a emulator.
[01:43] <rambo2_981> dude it sims the windows i/f
[01:44] <rambo2_981> say what you want about microsoft, but they do know what they're doing
[01:44] <HiddenKnowledge> rambo2_981: It can run programs faster than windows because it doesn't have some bus windows has.
[01:44] <sandyd> shingen: instructions are here -> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-gyachi-in-ubuntu-9-10-karmic.html
[01:44] <HiddenKnowledge> bugs*
[01:44] <rambo2_981> btw i use ubuntu on every machine i have; but, i have to say (wine is a dog ... i won't change my mind on that) open office doesn't hold a candle to ms office
[01:44] <shingen> sandyd: sorry, I went off on a tangent...  not loking for yahoo clients :)
[01:45] <HiddenKnowledge> rambo2_981: What's your support question again?
[01:45] <rambo2_981> if you want to run a microsoft app, run it under windows
[01:45] <phil_in_london> Hmm, thats dissappointing.
[01:45] <bazhang> !ot | rambo2_981
[01:45] <Smilodonis> ! dual boot
[01:45] <rambo2_981> oh good
[01:45] <rambo2_981> someone will answer me
[01:45] <Scottie> How do I aim my terminal request at a specific folder?
[01:45] <rambo2_981> what's the sequence to save my gnome desktop so it persists between boots
[01:45] <AdrienBrody> How can I copy my system to a new partition and boot from there?
[01:45] <mehwork> are there any html validators for linux? eg, something i can run from the commandline or a gui, and not a mozilla plugin? i want to validate local html files and firefox plugins require an external ip
[01:47] <gilaniali> what does this mean:  ./ (dot followed by slash)
[01:47] <phil_in_london> rambo2_981, you mean keep the same applications open, and roughly in the same spot they were?
[01:47] <gilaniali> does it run command after?
[01:47] <shingen> mehwork: html tidy is what you're looking for... there's a bunch of different versions on tidy.sourceforge.net, depending what language you want
[01:47] <rambo2_981> phil_in_london, yep
[01:47] <CJO> i added deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner but it still wants some java font , sun-java6-bin, and ia32-sun-java6-bin
[01:48] <collosi> AdrienBrody: you could try to image your OS and then put it on your other partition
[01:48] <CJO> that's gay as hell that pisses me off
[01:48] <CJO> :)
[01:48] <sandyd> gilaniali: it runs the file rellative to your current location
[01:48] <phil_in_london> rambo2_981, Menu, System, Preferences, Startup Applications, Options tab.
[01:48] <rambo2_981> phil_in_london, ty
[01:48] <sandyd> gilaniali: for example, if there was a file called "abc" in the folder your in, "./abc" would run it
[01:48] <phil_in_london> rambo2_981, its not perfect, but its as close as you'll get. Some applications don't play by the rules.
[01:48] <shingen> lol, I've been in this channel for 1 hour and my fsck is still running... *sigh*
[01:49] <shingen> only on pass 1 still....
[01:49] <gilaniali> sandyd: so instead of doing python abc.py, i can do ./abc.py
[01:49] <rambo2_981> phil_in_london, as long as it's close that's fine; thanks
[01:49] <sandyd> gilaniali: its only for programs in C/++
[01:49] <sandyd> gilaniali: python is not included
[01:49] <Scottie> Any assistance with Wine available?
[01:49] <phil_in_london> rambo2_981, it will remember which workspace you placed them on as well.
[01:50] <Snakkah> Alright. I'm pretty sure it's a problem on Microsoft's end. I click the "Sign in" button on msn.com and it directs me to a page that says their network is unavailable.
[01:50] <gilaniali> sandyd: seems to work for bash files
[01:50] <Snakkah> So would it be a safe bet to assume my account wasn't hacked?
[01:50] <rambo2_981> gilaniali, put this in the py file as the first line:
[01:50] <rambo2_981> #!/usr/bin/python
[01:50] <sandyd> gilaniali: thats because a bash file has commands for a group of programs
[01:51] <rambo2_981> phil_in_london, i haven't really used multiple workspaces, but that's good to know
[01:51] <mehwork> shingen: doesnt html tidy still require me to give it my external host name?
[01:51] <phil_in_london> rambo2_981, handy for those applications that are useless unless they are full screen.
[01:51] <Lowwe> What is the string to login to a different computer in terminal?
[01:51] <rusivi> !wine | Scottie
[01:51] <mamece2> how much ram do i need to run a VM in ubuntu?
[01:52] <smallfoot-> Lowwe, ssh?
[01:52] <Lowwe> smallfoot-: Correct
[01:52] <rusivi> mamece2: the minimum system requirements for the version of Ubuntu your using.
[01:52] <CJO> so I just install the depend. for java
[01:52] <smallfoot-> Lowwe, join #openssh, or type 'man ssh' or 'ssh --help'
[01:52] <CJO> like sun-java6-bin, and ia32-sun-java6-bin
[01:52] <Lowwe> Ok
[01:52] <coz_> hey guys,, I have googled this with very results.. same system for that last 6 versions of ubuntu ... lucid or maverick..mouse cursor now jumps randomly across the screen either up to the upper left corner or to the lower right corner...unpredictable... but consistene...If i install karmic no issues whatsoever...and the same conditoin on al three systems
[01:53] <phil_in_london> Lowwe    ssh  user@192.168.x.x   depends on username and ip.
[01:53] <Lowwe> Thanks phil
[01:53] <shingen> mehwork: probably not... you can run mod_tidy in an test apache instance and curl your entire site to see what it generates, or you could take a look at the other wrappers
[01:53] <rusivi> coz_ what mfg/model of system are you using?
[01:54] <coz_> rusivi,  intel  asus board  but only lucid and maverick exhibit this behavior
[01:54] <shingen> mehwork: best to look at the code and check :)
[01:54] <rusivi> coz_ custom built not pre-built from mfg?
[01:54] <coz_> rusivi,  wondering if it has anything to do with touchscren implimentation
[01:54] <coz_> rusivi,  cutom build
[01:54] <AshyIsMe> hey
[01:54] <mehwork> shingen: how has no one made it so you can just check if the html file you're editing in your editor is valid or not?
[01:54] <AshyIsMe> is there a package for vim7.3 somewhere?
[01:54] <mamece2> how can i report a bug in Rhythmbox? i cannot delete several files in the queue
[01:54] <AshyIsMe> i'd like to install it without having to compile from source
[01:55] <coz_> mamece2,   I would report it on ubuntu bugs
[01:55] <coz_> mamece2,  at launchpad
[01:55] <coz_> mamece2,   https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/
[01:55] <melkor> coz_: you might try getting the newest version of x and seeing if that helps.
[01:55] <shingen> mehwork: I haven't really looked around at IDEs for HTML (cuz I really don't care if I'm tidy or not) but I seem to recall that gedit and others have HTML tidy built in...
[01:56] <rusivi> mamece2 / coz_ I would not
[01:56] <phil_in_london> AshyIsMe, Menu, System, Adminstration, Synaptic...type in vim in the searchbox, select vim, apply.
[01:56] <melkor> coz_: it could also be a kernel issue have you tried using different kernels?
[01:56] <AshyIsMe> phil_in_london, it's version 7.2
[01:56] <AshyIsMe> i want 7.3
[01:56] <coz_> melkor,  well I have read a few bug reports  about this  but this is the default kernel
[01:56] <rambo2_981> shingen, emacs knows html
[01:56] <AshyIsMe> i want "set relativenumber" feature which is only available in 7.3
[01:56] <phil_in_london> if you want the latest of things, then its time for you do learn to build.
[01:56] <AshyIsMe> i know how to build haha
[01:56] <AshyIsMe> im just lazy
[01:57] <AshyIsMe> aight fine
[01:57] <coz_> rusivi,  i would not what? report rhuthmbox bigs at launchpad?/
[01:57] <phil_in_london> well, you should have known that already ;)
[01:57] <coz_> bugs
[01:57] <phil_> Anyone know how to turn off A.D.D. Mode
[01:57] <coz_> rusivi,  rather bugs
[01:57] <IsmAvatar> Help, please. Updates are failing. http://paste.ubuntu.com/508347/
[01:57] <armyriad> How do I start the default image viewer from the command line?
[01:57] <phil_in_london> AshyIsMe, have you tried apt-get install to see if its updated yet?
[01:57] <rusivi> mamece2 / coz_ It is a little premature based on reading one sentence if it's a bug or not.
[01:58] <bastidrazor> armyriad:  eog
[01:58] <coz_> rusivi,  understood...however I read that he wanted to know the "place" to report bugs   but I agree about the possibility it may not be a bug
[01:58] <shingen> phil_: a.d.d. mode.... are you talking  about the compiz feature which darkens windows you're not using?
[01:59] <rusivi> coz_ / mamece2: it may be a support question, then one would want to perform a "question" against the package versus a bug.
[02:00] <CJO> ..
[02:00] <phil_> shingen: yes, i am
[02:00] <phil_> shingen: my friend is having a problem with turning it off, and it gets REALLY annoying
[02:01] <CJO> I get Couldn't find package sun-java6-bin when I try to install the dependency
[02:01] <CJO> Oh I have to add it to the manager
[02:02] <shingen> phil_: I don't remember the interface to disable that... sorry... just thought I'd help frame your question
[02:02] <sandyd_> phil:compizconfig-settings-manager
[02:02] <armyriad> bastidrazor: Thanks.
[02:03] <sandyd_> phil_:compizconfig-settings-manager
[02:03] <bastidrazor> armyriad: you're welcome
[02:03] <icarus-c> phil_, <super>-p
[02:03] <icarus-c> phil_, to toogle on/off
[02:03] <icarus-c> phil_, or you could disable the plugin in ccsm
[02:04] <phil_> okay, thank you all ;)
[02:04] <phil_> I'll see if it works
[02:07] <Zelozelos> is there a way to change the background of the pull-down menus (app places system)
[02:08] <coz_> Zelozelos,  generally that is taken care of by the gtk2 theme
[02:09] <CJO> why is installing a package so complicated geesh ( when you don't know everything that;s going on ) besides making awesome distro
[02:09] <coz_> Zelozelos,  so if you go to system/preferences/appearacne  hit the Customize button and  go to the Controls tab
[02:09] <coz_> Zelozelos,  you can change or install themes there
[02:10] <coz_> Zelozelos,  the best place is gnome-look.org... click on the GTK2.0 in the left column and take a look at themes that have coloured menus and window backgrounds
[02:10] <CJO> Dependency issues for xcode or C++ are about the same levle :P
[02:10] <CJO> *level
[02:10] <phil_> Zelozelos: like changing a  brown/transparent background to a picture?
[02:10] <Zelozelos> phil_, yup
[02:11] <Zelozelos> phil_, such as a .png w some transparency
[02:11] <ravil> hi!
[02:12] <phil_> Zelozelos: I see; that SHOULD be possible considering everything in a gui has some picture file associated with it
[02:13] <shingen> sanity check question... fsck is compared against last fsck to compare that everything is sane right?  so a forced fsck would the same as running fsck for the very first time?
[02:13] <phil_> Zelozelos: like when you drag a picture to the menu bar, and change THAT background
[02:13] <coz_> Zelozelos,  the only way I can think of possibly doing this with an image on the menu backgrounds themselves would be to edit one of the themes  gtkrc files
[02:13] <StevenSS> Does anyone know if Ubuntu has a program that can be run from commandline that behaves like empathy?  Meaning...connect to AIM, Yahoo, gtalk, etc?
[02:14] <Mossyfunk> whats the option to get aptitude to install a package off my system again?
[02:14] <phil_> WE::
[02:14] <coz_> StevenSS,  there used to be one name  ytalk
[02:14] <coz_> StevenSS,  let me check
[02:14] <Beppetux> italiani??
[02:14] <Zelozelos> oh wait, theres a prog in the repos if i remember right, it lets you change colors of tex n stuff maybe it will
[02:14] <phil_> StevenSS: there is a terminal based GUI , but not THE cli
[02:15] <phil_> StevenSS: Finch by the Pidgin/Gaim team, if you are interested
[02:15] <StevenSS> I like irssi and was hoping for something similar
[02:15] <coz_> StevenSS,   http://linuxappfinder.com/package/tmsnc and   http://linuxappfinder.com/package/centericq   maybe
[02:15] <shingen> StevenSS: I belive irssi has plugins for that
[02:15] <StevenSS> Finch?  oooh!  I'll try that
[02:15] <StevenSS> Where can I find the plugins?
[02:15] <phil_> Steven: I have never used it myself, but i hear it is similar to what you are looking for
[02:15] <StevenSS> I'll try both methods and see which I like better.  Thanks.
[02:16] <Beppetux> ciao ci sono italiani??
[02:16] <gilaniali> in regard to bash scripts, why is it that commands like 'aptitude upgrade' dont need to have an echo statement put in front of them to execute
[02:16] <shingen> StevenSS: looks like a good irssi script is called bitlbee
[02:16] <coz_> StevenSS,   this one looks cool   http://linuxappfinder.com/package/centericq
[02:16] <Holy_John> I'm trying to add a static IP to my primary network which is running DHCP. Iäm using the GUI System -> Preferences -> Network Connections. I add it to the same  MAC address as the DHCP, but nothing show up with /sbin/ifconfig. Any ideas?
[02:16] <coz_> StevenSS,    http://www.centerim.org/index.php/Main_Page
[02:17] <shingen> StevenSS: http://www.bitlbee.org/main.php/screenshots.html I think I'll try it out too ;)
[02:18] <Harpers> Hi
[02:18] <SeanInSeattle> Hey all.  Does anyone know of a good tutorial about how to setup an ldap server on a web server that's running ubuntu?
[02:18] <Harpers> How much space does a standard Ubuntu install take? I know the community documentation says 5gb, but how much really?
[02:18] <SeanInSeattle> Hey all.  Does anyone know of a good tutorial about how to setup an ldap server on a (correction) virtual private server that's running ubuntu?
[02:18] <shingen> SeanInSeattle: I'm sure howtoforge.net has one
[02:18] <phil_> Harpers: Hey
[02:19] <phil_> Harpers: my smallest install took around 4 gigs on a flash drive
[02:19] <Harpers> phil_: damn...ok thanks.
[02:19] <shingen> SeanInSeattle: virtual private server eh? hmmm... maybe not, but it's a good place to start :)
[02:19] <phil_> Harpers: an alternative install takes less, though
[02:19] <phil_> Harpers: it depends on what you have installed
[02:20] <Harpers> well, the default desktop and firefox, with nothing more
[02:20] <Harpers> you know what, I'll just try it in a VM
[02:20] <Harpers> thanks for the help
[02:21] <Holy_John> why isn't eth0 listed in /etc/network/interfaces? What is responsible for starting my network?
[02:21] <phil_> Holy_John: What is your network manager?
[02:22] <dzup2> hello who can tellme what permits are in quien me puede decir que les dice:  ls -al /usr/share/gdm/guest-session/
[02:22] <lduros> hello, i'm trying to get a list of the fonts available on Ubuntu and KUbuntu after fresh install, does anybody know where I can find this?
[02:23] <Holy_John> phil_: How do I tell? GUI? *n00b*
[02:24] <Harpers> how big is the whole ubuntu-desktop package, if I were to install it from a Server ISO?
[02:24] <Harpers> it's not on the disc, right?
[02:24] <IsmAvatar> Help, please. Updates are failing. http://paste.ubuntu.com/508347/
[02:24] <dzup2> who can PM me ls -al /usr/share/gdm/guest-session/   i think i messup the permits and ourner ships
[02:25] <karan> hi
[02:25] <phil_> Holy_John: well, what are you doing atm?
[02:25] <karan> i need help desperatly
[02:25] <karan> its with my scanner
[02:25] <phil_> Holy_John: like... how are you handling the situation? Is the internet available to you from the computer you are asking about?
[02:25] <karan> how do i set up my scanner with ubuntu cuz it is not supported with sane
[02:25] <IsmAvatar> dzup: they should all be root:root and rwxr-xr-x
[02:26] <karan> here is the info about it
[02:26] <karan> http://www.sane-project.org/unsupported/microtek-scanmaker-5950.html
[02:26] <karan> please help would be appreciated
[02:26] <shingen> Holy_John: so what interfaces are listed in /etc/network/interfaces?   and have you tried running ifconfig to see what your network interfaces are named?
[02:27] <ChogyDan> IsmAvatar: maybe run apt-get clean, and re d/l the package
[02:27] <Holy_John> phil_: I first ran the GUI from System -> Preferences -> Network connections. There I see "Auto eth0" and I added one named "localnet"
[02:27] <karan> can someone help me with my problem?
[02:27] <Holy_John> shingen: it only seems to list my loopback. That's why I'm confused. Where is my eth0? ifconfig lists eth0 and lo
[02:28] <czesmir> somebody turn on this card wna3100?
[02:28] <IsmAvatar> ChogyDan: I've done an apt-get clean, buti didn't help. As for red/l the package, I don't know which to redownload. It's just the Update Manager.
[02:28] <shingen> Holy_John: it's auto, meaning pulling everything via dhcp and letting your network manager do everything else
[02:28] <olskolirc> karan !ask
[02:28] <ChogyDan> IsmAvatar: can you pastebin the output and commmands when you try clean and then reinstall?
[02:29] <olskolirc> im tirdda this robot making a fool outta me lol
[02:29] <olskolirc> !ask karan
[02:29] <IsmAvatar> ChogyDan: clean outputs nothing. Again, I don't know what to 'reinstall'. I'm just running the Update Manager, which is basically like called apt-get upgrade
[02:29] <Holy_John> shingen: but what is making it auto? I would just like to have an eth0:1 (?) for a static IP. I want DHCP and static IP on the same network card.
[02:30] <phil_> Karan: I am having trouble with my scanner as well... what have you done that HASN'T worked so far?
[02:30] <ChogyDan> IsmAvatar: can you pastebin the output of apt-get upgrade?
[02:30] <webBuilder> let see if I get any luck in here
[02:30] <webBuilder> Hi people
[02:31] <mnaines> Do Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10 support GUID partition tables?
[02:31] <shingen> Holy_John: if you have a default install of ubuntu, you should be able to right click on your network icon and make changes to your network interfaces, like assigning static IPs, netmask, gateway...
[02:31] <webBuilder> I am trying to find some tool that let me know when  file is created or updated in a directory, if there is some manipulation on subdirectory I must know it. I read about incron but does not work for subdirectory
[02:31] <webBuilder> any help?
[02:32] <karan> <phil_ i have tried finding it with xscan
[02:32] <karan> i was able to get the driver software workin under wine
[02:32] <Dr_Willis> webBuilder:  ive seen mention of some tools like that in the Package manager. but never used them. 'fam' 'famd'  i recall also. but those mey have been replaced by somthing newer these days.
[02:32] <ChogyDan> IsmAvatar: oh, it looks like you just need to rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-2.6.32-25-generic-pae.list
[02:32] <phil_> Karan: I wasn't able to get my drivers working under wine (i have an Epson Stylus NX400)
[02:32] <karan> but it says i need to go under device manger and refresh hardware devices....which i cnt since this is linux
[02:33] <webBuilder> Dr_Willis, how can I can search something like that on Google
[02:33] <phil_> Karan: Oh, I see
[02:33] <webBuilder> Dr_Willis, thank you for the help
[02:33] <karan> n i found no help on the ubuntu forums :d
[02:33] <Dr_Willis> webBuilder:  the package manager tools have search features
[02:33] <phil_> Karan: well, is it a Scanner, or an all in one like Printer/Scanner/etc?
[02:33] <docid> ok, so ive got the polkitd memory growing to infinity issue, how does one go about identifying the file/directory its stuck on?
[02:33] <IsmAvatar> ChogyDan: trying that
[02:34] <Dr_Willis> webBuilder:  or you could just google for 'ubuntu file monitor'
[02:34] <epic93> Yo
[02:34] <webBuilder> Dr_Willis, thank you so much
[02:34] <karan> <phil it is just a scanner
[02:34] <karan> http://www.sane-project.org/unsupported/microtek-scanmaker-5950.html
[02:34] <karan> there is all my info
[02:35] <Holy_John> shingen: rightclicking seems to bring up the same dialog as I found under "System". On the Wired tab I have added a new connection named "localnet". The name isn't magic, is it?
[02:35] <webBuilder> Dr_Willis, indeed you were right I just got something called fam, I'll read more and do my decision. THANK YOU
[02:35] <phil_> Karan: well if it is unsupported by the Scanner project, I don't really know what to tell you. I'm sorry :/
[02:35] <vibestriton> I have updated ubuntu 10.10 and now I can't boot.  Grub says something like 'file not found'.  has anybody run into this and is there a fix?
[02:35] <phil_> Karan: You may be out of luck... do you know of anyone else with this scanner?
[02:35] <shingen> karan: if you managed to get it working under wine and all you need to do is refresh hardware devices, simulate a reboot in wine...  can't recall if you can in wine, I've been using crossoffice since they offered version 7 for free two years ago
[02:35] <Holy_John> how do I restart my network? I did a /etc/init.d/networking restart, but that didn't help...
[02:35] <karan> cuz if i dualboot with windows phil....well i only got 60gb hdd
[02:35] <karan> n i dont want to waste space
[02:35] <Dr_Willis> vibestriton:  you could use a live cd, and reinstall grub. Theres been some issues with grub in 10.10 in the last few weeks on and off.
[02:36] <borca> Where does Ubuntu keep its menu.lst for grub? It doesn't exist anywhere.
[02:36] <phil_> Karan: I only have 20gb hdd ;) i'm in the same boat...
[02:36] <Dr_Willis> borca: Grub2 dosent use a menu.lst
[02:36] <bazhang> borca, grub2?
[02:36] <Dr_Willis> !grub2 | borca
[02:36] <IsmAvatar> ChogyDan: you're a life-saver. That seems to have done the trick. Thanks so much.
[02:36] <rusivi> karan: You may want to consider virtualizing with VirtualBox
  so how would i do a reboot in wine to refresh :S
[02:36] <phil_> Karan: my printing works but scanning doesn't. If you find something, tell me :)
[02:36] <ChogyDan> IsmAvatar: yw
[02:37] <rusivi> karan: As well as using the newest WINE 1.3.4
[02:37] <ricmar> exit
[02:37] <ricmar> q
[02:37] <shingen> karan: sorry, can't remember if you can... been using crossoffice plugin too long :(
[02:38] <shingen> karan: you definitely could in crossoffice plugin though...
[02:38] <vibestriton> Dr_Willis: Thanks.  I installed Ubuntu using wubi.  Can I still use that method to reinstall grub?  (Not sure how that works.)
[02:38] <borca> Dr_Willis, thanks.. this seems to be way more complicated though :/
[02:38] <Dr_Willis> vibestriton:  i dont use wubi at all.. i dont recoomend using wubi.. so cant help with it.
[02:38] <Dr_Willis> borca:  grub2 has numerous improvements over grub1. thats just how things are.
[02:39] <vibestriton> Dr_Willis:  Okay.  Thanks for the info.
[02:39] <phil_> Vibestrition: could i reccomend just getting Burg (a new graphical grub)
[02:39] <Dr_Willis> phil_:  does that work with WUbi?
[02:39] <Endafy> Ubuntu seems to not get along at all with nforce, it keeps giving me nforce2 errors, is there a fix for this?
[02:39] <docid> ok, so ive got the polkitd memory growing to infinity issue, how does one go about identifying the file/directory its stuck on? or is there another solution?
[02:40] <phil_> Dr_Willis: Well isn't Wubi just a graphical installer for Ubuntu on windows?
[02:40] <karan> is there a way i cant dualboot windows in like a 4gb partition?
[02:40] <glitchd> i have the wireless driver installed but wireless wont activate on ubuntu 10.04 64 bit
[02:40] <phil_> Karan: usually installing windows is tedious
[02:41] <Dr_Willis> phil_:  wubi insdtalls to a file on windows. and modifies the windows boot menus. so i would say no its not 'just' an intstaller.
[02:41] <Endafy> glitchd, then use the 32 bit version
[02:41] <phil_> Karan: From linux, you have to go through a long process; windows XP takes a minimum of 4gb on all my computers
[02:41] <mingdao___> karan: windows will more than likely need more than 4G itself
[02:41] <ChrisBuchholz> I have a server running 10.04, but i guess i need to install some missing language packages. Everytime i install something, i get this: http://gist.github.com/616226, how would i go about installing the missing packages?
[02:42] <glitchd> i wanted to switch to 64 bit cuz my laptop has 8 gigs of ram and only 64 bit has support for more than 4 gigs
[02:42] <karan> 6gb?
[02:42] <phil_> Dr_Willis: Okay, I'm quite sorry; i was mistaken, having not clearly understood what you mean
[02:42] <mingdao___> glitchd: HIGHMEM64
[02:42] <karan> see i only got 60gb hdd
[02:42] <phil_> Karan: Yes, for Windows XP it should be perfect
[02:42] <Dr_Willis> glitchd:  you need to reinstall and install the 64bit OS. you dont upgrade  from a 32bit install to a 64bit one.
[02:42] <glitchd> mingdao___, what is HIGHMEM64?
[02:42] <phil_> Karan: However, you would have to partition then reinstall grub after installing XP
[02:43] <rusivi> Dr_Willis That would be cool if one could do taht.
[02:43] <Dr_Willis> glitchd:  the PAE kernels can let you access more ram.
[02:43] <rusivi> taht = that
[02:43] <mingdao___> glitchd: CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G=y and check out PAE
[02:43] <glitchd> dr willis, that would work on 32 bit?
[02:43] <mingdao___> glitchd: run "make menuconfig" and read CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G
[02:43] <glitchd> mingdao___, where can i do that at?
[02:44] <shingen> PAE is a dog, only programs written to access PAE memory spaces can use it... and causes glitches on graphics cards
[02:44] <Dr_Willis> glitchd:  thats the point of PAE..  I dont use it. and the benchmarks i see. say use 64bit if you can.
[02:44] <phil_> Karan: If all you want is a base install and the scanner software, 6gb is plenty for windows
[02:44] <gabeh> Hello, I have a Windows 7 x64 install on a RAID 0 volume from an onboard RAID controller.  I think it falls into the fakeraid category.  I want to dual boot ubuntu 10.04 on this same volume.  I ran through the install and it didn't detect the volume.  I have seen tons of threads on this topic without a common solution.  Would someone point me in the right direction to get an "official"...
[02:44] <gabeh> ...solution for this please?
[02:44] <Eryn_1983_FL> hey peeps  how do i disable my netbook onboard wifi and enable my new usb one
[02:45] <shingen> gabeh: alternate install CD has fakeraid drivers... it's a text based install
[02:45] <Eryn_1983_FL> the onboard  keeps  connecting and i cant  do the  function key disable thing
[02:45] <rusivi> !windows | gabeh
[02:45] <karan> so is there like something like wubi but for windows instead?
[02:45] <gabeh> shingen: where do I get the alternate install CD?
[02:45] <sunny1> My hosts file isn't properly directing my apache powered Rails sites in my local 10.04 ubuntu
[02:45] <shingen> karan: run a virtual machine, share USB to it...  virtualbox works great for that
[02:46]  * RedSingularity is away: Away at the moment, be back soon.
 what u mean usb
[02:46] <sunny1> Does anyone have experience with hosts file and apache2?
[02:46] <phil_> Karan: unfortunately, there is no windows installer for linux... windows is closed :)
[02:46] <shingen> karan: your scanner isn't USB?
[02:46] <karan> oo yeah it is
[02:46] <karan> okay ill try tht this sat
[02:46] <shingen> gabeh: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[02:46] <karan> win 7 would been better though :D
[02:47] <karan> wat is the minum for windows 7 plus just software for my scanner?
[02:47] <shingen> gabeh: sorry, no link there :)
[02:47] <phil_> Karan: Windows 7 takes at least 6-8 gb of hdd space ;) i beta tested it lol
[02:47] <ChogyDan> karan: is your scanner usb?
[02:47] <karan> yes
[02:47] <gabeh> shingen: anything else I should be aware of?  I've seen people in the same threads talk about issues with grub and I'm way noob.
[02:47] <shingen> karan: windows 7 is a hog...
 yes
[02:47] <ChogyDan> karan: I think you can run windows inside virtualbox, and use the windows usb drivers to run stuff
[02:48] <coz_> gabeh,  you could also go to the #grub channle and speak them
[02:48] <ChogyDan> karan: you have to use the closed source version of virtualbox
 ive dualbooted win 7 and ubuntu b4
[02:48] <rusivi> gabeh: Your better off virtualizing Ubuntu within Windows or vice versa, then trying to get cute with RAID setups.
[02:48] <karan> its just tht space issue
[02:48] <karan> imma buy a larger hdd when the time is right
[02:48] <Jon--> I want to do an alias in terminal that will resize the current window.  [ie alias big='someterminalcmdtoresizecurrentwindow']. Can this be done?
[02:49] <phil_> Karan: That is definitely a good idea; finding a cheap hdd is easy to do ;)
[02:49] <ChogyDan> ChrisBuchholz: I think you just have to install one of the language-packs
[02:49] <coz_> karan,  what size is your hard driver now?
[02:49] <shingen> gabeh: I've used the alternate cd before and had no issues with grub circa ubuntu 8.04... I can't imagine it being worse? but who knows...
[02:49] <phil_> coz: 60gb
 60gb
[02:49] <ChrisBuchholz> ChogyDan: yeah, i figured - i just didnt know how to do it. I found a script in /usr/share/locales i could use
[02:49] <coz_> karan,  way more than enough... I have ubuntu installed onto a 36 gig scsi drive with no issues
[02:49] <shingen> karan: start burning or deleting some stuff off... 60GB is too small to live on :)
[02:49] <karan> alright  ill try it on the weekend
[02:50] <coz_> karan,  although I also store extra things like videos on external media
[02:50] <karan> for now
[02:50] <coz_> karan,  that is plenty of room
[02:50] <phil_> shingen: i live off of 20gb xD I'm saving up for a better comp though...
[02:50] <Eryn_1983_FL> ...
[02:50] <vibestriton> #quit
[02:50] <karan> imma get sleep
[02:51] <karan> thnk u guys
[02:51] <karan> night :D
[02:51] <phil_> Night ;D
[02:51] <shingen> phil_: my file server has a 3G used on a 8GB root partition....  sure ubuntu installs are small, but it's rough to have small hdds :)
[02:52] <phil_> shingen: oh wow! I couldn't imagine having less space than this... i have a 16gb flash drive and a 20 gb hard drive haha
[02:54] <shingen> phil_: well, I mentioned it's my file server... I didn't say what the other drive sizes were :) lol....  /home is 30GB, 450MB used... but I have lots of other hdds hanging off it... about 5TB worth :)
[02:55] <phil_> Shingen: Woah, man, I want to BE you! The computer i'm looking at has 8gb RAM, 640gb hdd, 256mb ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics,
[02:55] <phil_> Shingen: ... and vista xD Which is why it's dirt cheap
[02:55] <phil_> Shingen: But while no one else wants it... i see a use for it ;)
[02:55] <phil_> Anyone know how i can put a swap file on my flash drive without overwriting it?
[02:56] <Dr_Willis> phil_:  linux can use a s2wap FILE. or a swap partition, or both.. or several of each..
[02:56] <olskolirc> im having a hard time using the usb disk creator on all the iso's im using it boots to a prompt that reads:boot: can i get a link please?
[02:56] <shingen> phil_: sounds like a project :) gogogo
[02:56] <tenach> How can I fix my updates? I try to run dpkg --configure -a but I get: dpkg: parse error, in file '/var/lib/dpkg/updates/0144' near line 0:  newline in field name `#padding'
[02:57] <randomseed> I was just at the British Computer Museum web site and they had pictures of very large hard drives the size of refrigerators at 220 Megabites
[02:57] <bazhang> !ot | randomseed
[02:57] <phil_> shingen: of course it is ;D Everyone is so scared of vista, but i have linux on my side... haha
[02:57] <phil_> Shingen: thank you, i'll look into it ;D
[02:58] <shingen> phil_: might want to read up on ATI driver support on linux though....  last I checked and it's not that hot unless you're using closed source drivers...
[02:58] <randomseed> bazhang, oh, ok thanks
[03:00] <phil_> shingen: i've heard that, but i'm willing to take the risk. It's an inexpensive system, and I can always dual boot windows (cringes, i haven't had windows in months on my machine...) for games
[03:02] <tenach> Does anyone know how to "reset" packages so that you can run dpkg  --configure -a without getting parse errors?
[03:02] <Crash1hd> does svn update auto remove files that where deleted via ftp?
[03:02] <Sanctusorium> Greetings and a (hopefully) quick question.  I am running Windows 7 and I am looking to install Ubuntu in someway.  Idealy, I would be able to virtualize it inside W7.  However, I want the option of booting into Ubuntu stand alone as well.  Is this possible?
[03:03] <docid> hrmm, wubi work with 7?
[03:04] <phil_> Sanctusorium: There is the option of "Wubi" a windows Ubuntu Installer
[03:04] <Sanctusorium> Wubi?  Is that the thing that installs Ubuntu into W7?  It installs fine, I've done it before...  But is there anyway to then virtualize Ubuntu when w7 is up?
[03:04] <cage_raphel> Sanctusorium:  i would suggest u virtualize it than booting it. i have had hard times booting w7 and ubuntu at the same time.
[03:04] <phil_> Sanctusorium: I don't believe so
[03:04] <ejv> i boot win7 and ubuntu, it's not that hard...
[03:05] <ejv> in fact, it's down right easy.
[03:05] <theabyssdragon> you can create a bootable ubuntu partition, then access it through VirtualBox using a .vdmk image
[03:05] <olulela> :O nice
[03:05] <Sanctusorium> THATS what I want! :D
[03:05] <phil_> theabyssdragon: how would I do that?
[03:06] <trans123> hello evryone
[03:06] <phil_> theabyssdragon: i'm sorry, but i've also been looking for that answer for a long time :)
[03:06] <ejv> phil_: kind of much to ask of one person, start googling.
[03:06] <phil_> kk
[03:06] <sunny1> Need a little help with my hosts file...anyone?
[03:06] <ejv> sunny1: ask the real question
[03:06] <theabyssdragon> googling "virtualbox native partition" gives some good results
[03:07] <sunny1> My hosts file isn't properly directing my apache powered Rails sites in my local 10.04 ubuntu
[03:07] <phil_> Theabyssdragon: thank you :D
[03:07] <Sanctusorium> theabyssdragon: Awesome, thank you!
[03:07] <trans123> i'm running 10.10rc on vbox, its asking for username n password, all of my efforts are failed, what should i give there
[03:07] <ejv> sunny1: pastebin your hosts file, perhaps that will lend some clues, any error messages are welcome too.
[03:08] <bazhang> trans123, #ubuntu+1 for that
[03:08] <Sanctusorium> I was kinda looking to do the same thing with OSX, but then I learned Apple is all RAWR and doesn't allow virtualization ;(
[03:08] <Sanctusorium> ..  I like Linux more anyway
[03:09]  * Sanctusorium stick toung out at Apple.
[03:09] <phil_> Sanctusorium: I learned that the hard way a few years back ;) in all honesty, you could run the "Macbuntu" install package from sourceforge
[03:09] <phil_> Sanctusorium: however, My friends and i got tired of the mac interface after a couple of days xD
[03:09] <docid> trans123, reboot, when it hits grub, edit the kernel line, add single to the end, that will drop ya to a root prompt with no passwd , then ya can set passwds and users
[03:10] <elkclone> msg nickserv identify thoreau
[03:10] <docid> ohh, bummer dood
[03:10] <trans123> u mean the word "single"
[03:10] <docid> dont ya hate it when that happens
[03:10] <Sanctusorium> phil_: I want to learn it because I go to The University of Missouri.  I'd say a good 80% of the computers here are Mac and I just want to get used to the interface.
[03:10] <docid> yes, after quiet
[03:10] <cage_raphel> Hello all.. i have a couple of ISO files on my Ubuntu 10.4 machine.. however i am not sure how to open and play those files.
[03:11] <Sanctusorium> However, thank you for the tip.  :3
[03:11] <trans123> i'm running iso
[03:11] <collosi> cage_raphel:  are the ISO's media like a movie or CD?
[03:11] <phil_> Sanctusorium: in that case, http://sourceforge.net/projects/macbuntu/ is a good place to go. You can't really tell the difference ;) it has a nice install/uninstall guide too :D
[03:11] <sunny1> ejv: http://gist.github.com/616255 When I point my server towards "trickee.local" nothing happens. I found others doing it, so I assume its correct
[03:11] <cage_raphel> collosi: yes. they are like movies ( traning sessions to be specific )
[03:12] <docid> ahh, if its video
[03:12] <docid> just load it with vlc
[03:12] <elkclone> oops
[03:12] <collosi> cage_raphel:  you could use vlc to open them
[03:12] <docid> itll play without mounting
[03:13] <cage_raphel> collosi: vlc as in the vlc player?
[03:13] <trudel69> Hi , I am trying to make sdb1 (ntfs) my Personal Folder, but , each time i reboot, it goes back to /home , any ideas ?
[03:13] <phil_> cage_raphel: or burn the images to a CD, or extract them (depending on what's inside, it could be pretty straightforward)
[03:14] <Sanctusorium> phil_: I'll definitely have to try that.  Much better than trying to make a hackintosh system or spending the silly amount of cash for an Apple.
[03:14] <i_is_broke> can you run virtualbox on 64bit server without installing a gui?
[03:14] <ejv> i_is_broke: yes
[03:14] <cage_raphel> phil_:  what i am trying to do is directly play them with out burning the iso files to the cd.. you know.. something like a virtual cd drive  in win
[03:14] <i_is_broke> ejv, do you know where  there is a guide for that?
[03:15] <collosi> cage_raphel: yes install vlc and open them with vlc
[03:15] <phil_> Sanctusorium: Have fun with it ;) You might be sick of it in a few days!
[03:15] <cage_raphel> collosi: ok will do .. thanks for your help bro :)
[03:15] <ejv> i_is_broke: wild guess here but if you google the words: "virtualbox no gui" and click "I'm feeling lucky" you're guaranteed to win. ;)
[03:16] <rixzz> hi
[03:16] <Sanctusorium> phil_:  I am already sick of it.  But MU is in bed with Steve Jobs and figuring out how to use a Mac everytime I am on campus is kinda annoying.
[03:16] <phil_> Anyone else enjoy having a community to fall back on with Ubuntu, as opposed to that *other* os?
[03:16] <ejv> !offtopic | phil_
[03:16] <phil_> Sanctusorium: Oh, I see ;D
[03:17] <phil_> Sanctusorium: Well then, have fun! I must be off :)
[03:17] <Sanctusorium> I do want to thank everyone in this channel.  Everytime I come here I get answers.  You're all amazing.  Ubuntu forever!
[03:17] <outer_space> what are alternatives for clear internet that work on ubuntu?
[03:17] <mamece2> how can i erase a virtual HD?
[03:18] <trudel69> mamece2, right click, delete
[03:18] <Xonix> What does is mean when i do a aptitude list and some packages are in {a} for example openjdk which comes with tomcat6
[03:18] <h00k> !botsnack
[03:18] <ejv> mamece2: load a livecd into the virtual OS, then you can repartition or wipe the virtual disk at your leisure.
[03:19] <RudyValencia> cage_raphel: there's a virtual image mounting program I use called "virtual clonedrive".
[03:19] <spdw> Has anyone successfully added a facebook account in Gwibber?  I haven't been this frustrated by an app in a long time.
[03:19] <mamece2> ejv ty
[03:19] <shingen> cage_raphel: acetoneiso for linux
[03:20] <trudel69> spdw, x2 , i can't achieve it either
[03:20] <ejv> spdw: no idea what gwibber is, however there's a facebook-plugin I believe for pidgin. http://pidgin.im/
[03:20] <spdw> trudel69: I've tried every solution in the launchpad bug report for getting it to work and its a no go
[03:21] <spdw> ejv: I don't have pidgin installed - I'm using a fairly stock Ubuntu 10.04.
[03:21] <shingen> cage_raphel: that'll allow you to mount any iso, cue/bin, ccd, etc as a virtual cd using fuse
[03:21] <ejv> spdw: go and get it, it's amazing (used to be called gAIM in it's younger days) ;)
[03:22] <ejv> supports every spec under the sun, xmpp/jabber, aol, msn, yahoo, gchat, fb, icq, irc, etc.
[03:22] <trudel69> pidgin can be use to chat with your facebook contacts, gwibber should theoricaly let us post on the boards
[03:22] <ejv> ah... if it's microblogging, pidgin doesn't do that
[03:22] <ejv> not to my knowledge, sorry ;)
[03:22] <cage_raphel> shingen:  that was very helpful.. thank you so much :)
[03:23] <spdw> ejv: right, empathy allows for fb chat too and it comes in the default install :)
[03:23]  * ejv cringes

[03:36] <Mossyfunk> I have a bootable flash drive ith lubuntu 10.04 on it but I can't boot from usb. Is there any way to use my Ubuntu 10.04 cd to boot from the flash drive?
[03:37] <tanstaafl> evening guys - my ubuntu 10.10 install went and borked itself - it can't boot anymore and is dropping me into grub rescue immediately after the BIOS screen. It seems like something's gone screwy with the partions: fdisk shows sda1, sda2, and sda5 - where 1 is a windows install, 2 is extended, and 3 is swap. I don't know where the actual install of linux went. I don't really care about restoring the os to working state - though that w
[03:37] <bazhang> tanstaafl, #ubuntu+1 for that please
[03:38] <tanstaafl> bazhang: er, i'm an idiot. its still on 10.04. sorry, my bad. dunno why i was thinking about 10.10
[03:39] <lUzErO> hi,, what is the adress for the support in spanish?
[03:39] <tanstaafl> so, yeah, all the above, except 10.04 instead
[03:39] <chrissharp123> !es | lUzErO
[03:39] <bogomo> does anybody know a channel for backtrack 4
[03:40] <bazhang> lUzErO, #ubuntu-es
[03:40] <bazhang> bogomo, yes #backtrack-linux
[03:40] <lUzErO> gracias
[03:40] <bogomo> or can i ask my questions here too ?
[03:40] <bogomo> ohh ok , thank you collosi
[03:40] <bazhang> bogomo, not supported here, so no
[03:41] <lucasicf> finally the process was killed
[03:43] <collosi> tanstaafl:  if sda2 is an extended should you have an sda5 or something like that?
[03:43] <tanstaafl> collosi: yeah, i have a sda5 - its a swap though
[03:44] <EducatedWhtTrash> My wireless works fine under Gnome, but after installing KDE and switching to it, no wireless. How can I fix?
[03:44] <collosi> tanstaffl:  so where is your linux partition?
[03:45] <tanstaafl> collosi: good question. it doesn't seem to be there at all
[03:45] <collosi> tanstaffl:  did you boot into a livecd and check with fdisk?
[03:45] <tanstaafl> yeah, im running the live cd now
[03:46] <collosi> tanstaafl:  what do you seen when you type: sudo fdisk -l
[03:46] <tanstaafl> i'll send it over, one sec

[03:53] <bazhang> bogomo, thats bt4. nothing to do with ubuntu
[03:53] <Silverfish> ok i'm new to linux so forgive me if i sound ignorant for not knowing about certain things.  My current problem is learning to use WINE properly.  I have some windows based games (i.e. Diablo II Lord of Destruction) and I can't figure out how to run them in WINE.  I understand that I need to allow files to be executable as a program but since the discs are read only I don't understand how to do this when it comes to games that re

[03:53] <donvitoo> how to install identd on ubuntu
[03:53] <bogomo> come on man , im new  you dont have to be so pushy like that
[03:53] <Silverfish> sorry if that was long and annoying
[03:54] <nogo> identd is not ubuntu
[03:54] <bogomo> has nothing to do with ubuntu , but its based on ubuntu
[03:54] <collosi> tanstaffl: if sure is, but I can assure you there is no linux partition in there
[03:54] <tomla4444> HELP
[03:54] <EducatedWhtTrash> bogomo, Backtrack is based on Slackware.
[03:54] <tanstaafl> that's what my conclusion was also. except i know there was
[03:54] <tanstaafl> how could the entire partion just go away?
[03:54] <gilaniali> spdw: just one second
[03:55] <tomla4444> HELP RAID 1
[03:55] <icarus-c> Silverfish, in fact, you don't need to give file executable right to run them with wine
[03:55] <szpuni> tomla4444, ?
[03:55] <collosi> tanstaafl:  if it was deleted, im guessing
[03:55] <Silverfish> ok so what do i need to do then?  because i have the disc drive configured with WINE but when i try to play it still tells me there's no disc
[03:56] <szpuni> tomla4444, what you are looking for
[03:56] <tanstaafl> collosi: heh, yeah that would do it. but how? could the starting cylindar have failed or something on that partion and just taken the whole thing with it?
[03:56] <icarus-c> Silverfish, if you need a disc, maybe you need to create a drive in wine and link to where the disc is mounted
[03:56] <nogo> Silverfish: wine is not ubuntu
[03:56] <Nemorense> Does anyone know how to change the widescreen resolution?
[03:56] <icarus-c> Silverfish, that could be done in winecfg
[03:56] <tanstaafl> the partion was never manually deleted

[03:56] <tomla4444> WILL UBUNTU INSTALL WITH WUBI ON RAID 1 ON WINDOWS
[03:57] <tanstaafl> something either failed and it whiped itself, or ubuntu screwdup somewhere and reformated it
[03:57] <spdw> tomla4444: I think your capslock is stuck
[03:57] <tomla4444> no
[03:57] <szpuni> tomla4444, this is not windows channel ;) but you can install ubuntu on raid 1 no problem
[03:57] <Ant-> Lets demostrate we are more than 1% www.dudalibre.com/gnulinuxcounter
[03:57] <bazhang> Ant-, not here
[03:57] <collosi> tanstaafl:  I really don't have any idea, seems really odd.
[03:58] <tomla4444> thanks
[03:58] <EducatedWhtTrash> My wireless works fine under Gnome, but after installing KDE and switching to it, no wireless. How can I fix this? (Sorry to repost, didn't want my question to get lost in the mix.)
[03:58] <szpuni> tomla4444, it depends what kind of raid you are looking for software or hardware
[03:59] <tanstaafl> collosi: just pulled up disk utilty on the live cd, and it does say there are a few bad sectors from the SMART data
[03:59] <icarus-c> Silverfish, between, read the Howto section of http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=315
[03:59] <Silverfish> is this strictly supposed to be for help with ubuntu itself and not with ubuntu software?  if so i'm sorry for coming to the wrong place and if so would you know where i could find real live help with WINE?  i have ubuntu questions too but they're not what's bugging me at the moment
[03:59] <bazhang> Silverfish, check the appdb and join #winehq
[03:59] <tanstaafl> Silverfish: #wineh-hq i believe
[03:59] <tomla4444> can i use the wubi install of ubuntu to a virtual drive in windows on raid 1
[03:59] <tanstaafl> or withouth the dash heh
[03:59] <bazhang> !appdb | Silverfish
[04:00] <tomla4444> fakeraid
[04:00] <gilaniali> spdw: http://dpaste.com/254818/
[04:00] <Silverfish> ok thanks i guess i'll do that then but i assure you i will be back when those ubuntu questions start nagging at me as i'm sure they will lol
[04:01] <bazhang> Silverfish, of course welcome to idle here and you may wish to read the ubuntu manual , wine questions are best answered there though
[04:01] <szpuni> tomla4444, i don't know that software but you can use vmware or any any virtualisation tool but you will relay on windows for handeling drives
[04:01] <icarus-c> Silverfish, i suppose you could ask wine in here too, if someone know would probably pick up. but probably #wine is more relevant
[04:01] <bazhang> !manual | Silverfish
[04:02] <spdw> gilaniali: can you use backticks rather than echo'ing out a quoted string?
[04:02] <spdw> gilaniali: this character `
[04:02] <tomla4444> DO YOU KNOW - WUBI
[04:02] <gilaniali> spdw: i know i can use them
[04:02] <gilaniali> spdw: but why doesnt aptitude upgrade require them
[04:03] <Silverfish> ok cool i have most of the basic stuff figured out (keyword "most") i'm not completely useless with software but i'm no genius with it either...so there's a wine room on here too?  i'm new to this program too...just now found it on the ubuntu documentation and thought i'd give it a shot
[04:03] <spdw> gilaniali: not a shell scripting guru so I can only guess.  Possibly because of the use of the env variable?
[04:04] <bazhang> Silverfish, yep, /join #winehq after checking the appdb
[04:04] <gilaniali> spdw: env?
[04:04] <spdw> gilaniali: $DB_PASSWORD
[04:04] <icarus-c> Silverfish, i have told you to read the Howto section on http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=315
[04:05] <Silverfish> k thanks for the help...even if it wasn't exactly what i was looking for at least i should be able to find what i'm looking for now
[04:05] <icarus-c> Silverfish, that is the instructions/tips to get diablo II lord of destruction to work
[04:05] <tomla4444> SZPUNI
[04:05] <spdw> gilaniali: and/or the use of the '/' without escaping perhaps
[04:06] <szpuni> tomla4444, as far as i read this is software to run ubuntu with windows but i never see it
[04:06] <gilaniali> spdw: maybe, thanks. I'll try find more about it
[04:06] <tomla4444> YES IT IS
[04:06] <szpuni> tomla4444, why don't you repartition your drive leave some space and install ubuntu as separate system?
[04:07] <tomla4444> I DONT KNOW IF IT WILL WORK WITH IN RAID
[04:07] <IdleOne> tomla4444: drop the caps
[04:07] <bazhang> tomla4444, no caps please
[04:08] <tomla4444> ok
[04:08] <szpuni> tomla4444, yes it will only thing is you can see 2 drives apart of one
[04:08] <tomla4444> ok
[04:08] <szpuni> tomla4444, then you need to set up software raid1
[04:09] <tomla4444> i have seen that on demo thumb drive
[04:09] <szpuni> tomla4444, in this case google will help you there is a lot of info
[04:09] <EducatedWhtTrash> My wireless works fine under Gnome, but after installing KDE and switching to it, no wireless. How can I fix this?
[04:10] <tomla4444> the info is very involved
[04:10] <szpuni> tomla4444, welcome in linux world ;)
[04:10] <moetunes> EducatedWhtTrash:  from what I've seen in kubuntu alot of ppl move to using wicd for the network
[04:10] <tomla4444> lol
[04:11] <icarus-c> EducatedWhtTrash, run nm-applet  if you haven't
[04:11] <geckopunk> Hello everyone... I'm trying to find a PUBKEY 74A941BA219BC810 from gpg's  --keyserver keys.gnupg.net but it's not found there... Does anyone know where I can find that key?
[04:11] <bazhang> geckopunk, hang on
[04:11] <EducatedWhtTrash> ok. I'll try that next time I'm in KDE
[04:11] <geckopunk> thanks
[04:11] <tomla4444> yep
[04:11] <EducatedWhtTrash> Thank you.
[04:11] <szpuni> tomla4444, it's not so hard it's acctally very simple
[04:11] <bazhang> geckopunk, which repos
[04:12] <geckopunk> tor... let me getthem for you
[04:12] <tomla4444> i am thinking of going to hardware raid
[04:12] <rudy__> i got a question
[04:12] <geckopunk> GPG error: http://deb.torproject.org lucid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 74A941BA219EC810Failed to fetch http://gpl.code.de/oswiki/GplcodedeApt/dists//ubuntu/Release.gpg  Something wicked happened resolving 'gpl.code.de:http' (-5 - No address associated with hostname)

[04:12] <bazhang> !gpgerr | geckopunk see if this helps
[04:12] <szpuni> tomla4444, if you have hardware wich linux kernel support then no problem it will recognaize staight away
[04:13] <rudy__> i'm trying to mount an iso file and its telling me that the iso isn't in etc/stab or etc/mtab.. how do I mount the Iso?  the iso is for Fallout one, I'm trying to see if i can get it to run in ubuntu
[04:13] <bazhang> geckopunk, you'll need to switch in the appropriate keys of course
[04:13] <bazhang> rudy__, need wine for that
[04:13] <rudy__> so do I run the iso in win?
[04:13] <rudy__> wine?
[04:13] <rudy__> cuz I have wine
[04:13] <bazhang> rudy__, wine runs it really well
[04:13] <rudy__> i dont wanna have to burn the iso
[04:13] <geckopunk> thank you baz... you're the best... brb
[04:14] <rudy__> cool, it'll work for Fallout 2 as well?
[04:14] <tomla4444> adaptic make a good hardware raid for pciex   idont have pciex
[04:14] <bazhang> rudy__, should do, works here at least; depends on your system of course
[04:14] <rudy__> :D
[04:14] <bazhang> rudy__, check the appdb of course
[04:15] <rudy__> well how do I run the ISO in wine?  </whine>
[04:15] <szpuni> tomla4444, use livecd ;)
[04:15] <tomla4444> how easy is software raid
[04:15] <tomla4444> ok
[04:15] <szpuni> tomla4444, just type in google linux software raid and read
[04:16] <icarus-c> rudy__, mount it first, then run it with wine
[04:16] <szpuni> tomla4444, very easy
[04:16] <bazhang> rudy__, not sure how to mount iso in windows, probably some windows tool to use in wine, then install from there
[04:16] <rudy__> u gotta use Daemon Tools
[04:16] <tomla4444> ok
[04:16] <bazhang> !fakeraid > tomla4444
[04:16] <shingen> rudy__: you need acetoneiso to mount isos in linux
[04:16] <rudy__> acetoneiso.. ok
[04:16] <icarus-c> rudy__, how did you try to mount the iso
[04:16] <tomla4444> how
[04:16] <rudy__> i tried in the command line with mount
[04:17] <icarus-c> rudy__, what command you used
[04:17] <rudy__> i wish I could paste my results but I dont have a 3 button mouse
[04:17] <szpuni> shingen, what? mount -t loop :P
[04:17] <rudy__> just a touch pad
[04:17] <rudy__> mount
[04:17] <rudy__> i used mount
[04:17] <tomla4444> how privite
[04:17] <rudy__> it said on a forum and in the man page that it should work
[04:17] <icarus-c> rudy__, click left and right mouse button together
[04:17] <shingen> szpuni: acetoneiso mounts isos using fuseiso and installs a gnome extension if I recall
[04:17] <icarus-c> that will emulate the middle mouse button
[04:17] <shingen> szpuni: so you can right click on an iso and mount it as a virtual cd drive
[04:17] <icarus-c> shingen, eh... in fact gnome gvfs support mounting iso
[04:18] <rudy__> fuseiso is a command line
[04:18] <szpuni> shingen, but if you using any linux distro why would you use that software?
[04:18] <shingen> icarus-c: yeah, through fuse-iso too... but there are so many other interfaces
[04:18] <shingen> err, other formats even
[04:18] <szpuni> shingen, unless this is windows then sorry ;)
[04:18] <rudy__> thx all
[04:18] <RedSingularity> How can I change the color of my name when a user types something to me?
[04:18] <shingen> szpuni: he's trying to mount a windows (warez) cd so he can try to install his game in wine :P
[04:18] <tomla4444> yes  fakeraid
[04:18] <tomla4444> in bios
[04:19] <bazhang> RedSingularity, like this?
[04:19] <szpuni> shingen, ah ok cool
[04:19] <RedSingularity> bazhang:  Yeah i want to change the red color to something else
[04:19] <collosi> rudy_:  type sudo mount -t iso9660 theiso.iso /location/of/where/you/want/to/mount/ -o loop
[04:19] <bazhang> RedSingularity, which irc client
[04:19] <RedSingularity> xchat
[04:19] <icarus-c> rudy__, just mount the CD with linux,  and use winecfg -> Drives to map a drive for the mount point.
[04:19] <fiber> Hi, I just installed Ubuntu 10.04 on my acer timelinex1830t and the microphone doesn't work... has anyone experienced this?
[04:19] <icarus-c> s/CD/ISO/
[04:19] <bazhang> RedSingularity, let me check the xchat prefs
[04:20] <RedSingularity> bazhang: ok
[04:20] <geckopunk> Something wicked happened resolving 'gpl.code.de:http' (-5 - No address associated with hostname) - Is that a bad repos?
[04:21] <digitalfiz> how can i backup a hfs+ partition on 1 drive and restore it to another. I know I can do it with dd but the drives are different sizes is this a problem?
[04:21] <bazhang> RedSingularity, settings preferences colors new messages click on the red box and change to the color you wish
[04:21] <collosi> fiber:  have you checked in Sound --> Input
[04:21] <RedSingularity> bazhang try me now
[04:21] <bazhang> geckopunk, try commenting it out of /etc/apt/sources.list with a # in front saving and trying again
[04:22] <bazhang> RedSingularity, okay
[04:22] <RedSingularity> bazhang nothing :(
[04:22] <donvitoo> how to install identd on ubuntu
[04:22] <donvitoo> !identd
[04:22] <sendblink23> can anybody help me join gnome shell irc ?
[04:22] <donvitoo> !ident\
[04:22] <donvitoo> !ident
[04:22] <bazhang> RedSingularity, try me again
[04:22] <RedSingularity> bazhang ........
[04:23] <bazhang> RedSingularity, nope, let me check
[04:23] <leo> l
[04:23] <RedSingularity> bazhang i have been looking but cant find it for the life of me
[04:24] <moetunes> xchat-settings-prefs-new colours
[04:24] <bazhang> RedSingularity, yep, no idea. #xchat might know my apologies
[04:24] <moetunes> xchat-settings-prefs-newmessage oops
[04:24] <collosi> donvitoo:  sudo apt-cache search identd
[04:24] <RedSingularity> bazhang thanks....i will try that :)
[04:24] <moetunes> xchat-settings-prefs-colours-newmessage oops oops
[04:25] <RedSingularity> moetunes we tried that with no luck :(
[04:25] <fiber> collosi, yes I have... no dice.  infact, there is even a kernel module for the mic loaded
[04:25] <fiber> collosi, michael_mic
[04:26] <moetunes> oh
[04:26] <geckopunk> in my sources.list it shows as: deb http://gpl.code.de/oswiki/GplcodedeApt /ubuntu lucid
[04:26] <nach0z> hey quick question: where do I mess with certificates in Ubuntu?
[04:27] <bazhang> geckopunk, could be timing out, try with it commented out # in front then save and hit again
[04:27] <tomla4444> thaks
[04:27] <nach0z> Ba Zhang: Chinese for eight something.... yes?
[04:28] <leoowu> l
[04:30] <tomla4444> ffff
[04:30] <christopher_> hi all
[04:31] <nach0z> hi.
[04:31] <collosi> fiber:  I think michael_mic is for wireless cards, I could be mistaken though
[04:31] <nach0z> !cert
[04:31] <nach0z> .....
[04:31] <geckopunk> lookin' good, thanks again bazhang
[04:31] <nach0z> Anyone have any idea where to mess with certificates in Ubuntu? :(
[04:31] <tomla4444> vvv
[04:32] <christopher_> testing
[04:32] <izinucs> is gnome-shell still in the repos? I can't seem to find it?
[04:32] <izinucs> or is it a ppa app.
[04:34] <bivo1> wtf... After updates last week I can't load into my wubi install of UNR. After the windows bootloader I get this error for a split second where grub should be loading: To (HD0,0) : NTFS5 NOWUBIDIR
[04:34] <bivo1> To (HD0,1) : NTFS5
[04:34] <tomla4444> vvv
[04:34] <glebihan> RedSingularity: the interface is bad but in order to change this setting, you have to change one of the "text colors" (I don't  know which one, so you may have to try some out)
[04:36] <geckopunk> jaja, oh bivo, you get the pleasure of playing with Grub, eh?
[04:37] <geckopunk> I spent 2 weeks getting my WD Ext My Passport HD to work with dual booting OpenSuSE and Win7 on my laptop
[04:37] <jasoncinci> :geckopunk: what turned out to be your difficulties?
[04:38] <geckopunk> inexperience... haha
[04:38] <RedSingularity> glebihan there are local and mirc options.  WHich one?
[04:38] <collosi> haha
[04:38] <jasoncinci> :geckopunk: that will do it. Lol.
[04:38] <geckopunk> i used EasyBCD to help resolve
[04:38] <geckopunk> good times
[04:38] <istevenmon> hi guys how can i send a signal to a program?
[04:38] <collosi> geckopunk:  good job on not giving up, now back to helping
[04:38] <kenleycapps> so, im trying to get vsftpd going on ubuntu 10.04
[04:38] <glebihan> RedSingularity: I think the mIRC ones, but I'm really not sure, it's really badly documented...
[04:38] <jasoncinci> :geckopunk: although I'll search it, in the interest of getting some convo going here, what does that do for you.
[04:38] <kenleycapps> and uh, i dont think /etc/vsftpd.conf is being used at all...
[04:39] <kenleycapps> anyone else run into this?
[04:39] <RedSingularity> glebihan yes it is!
[04:39] <geckopunk> what does what do for me? sorry
[04:39] <RedSingularity> glebihan try me
[04:39] <tim> hey ya'll, can some one tell me what ibus is? what it does and how it can be useful?
[04:39] <jasoncinci> :geckopunk: EasyBCD...
[04:39] <glebihan> RedSingularity: here it is
[04:40] <RedSingularity> glebihan it was local!  Thanks a lot!!!!! :)
[04:40] <geckopunk> it helped with my issue dealing with the partitions and drives and what OS's were on them, etc...
[04:40] <jasoncinci> :tim: join irc.freenode.org #ibus
[04:40] <IdleOne> !ibus | tim
[04:40] <glebihan> RedSingularity: yes found out at the same time, you're welcome :)
[04:41] <collosi> tim:  you can also check out #ibus
[04:41] <geckopunk> because it found the formatted partitions with the linux distros I put on the Ext HD
[04:41] <tim> IdleOne,  I see, so it isn't very useful to me, but for my bulgarian friend, very helpful
[04:41] <jasoncinci> :geckopunk: ahh ic. Nice.
[04:42] <geckopunk> have you ever used it b4?
[04:42] <jasoncinci> :geckopunk: i have not.
[04:42] <kenleycapps> i guess not
[04:42] <jasoncinci> :geckopunk: i only use linux on my system atm
[04:43] <geckopunk> also, i think it helped to get grub to even load when the Ext HD was plugged in... I think my Win7 was being a bully and not playing nice with Grub
[04:43] <jasoncinci> :geckopunk: the one windows pc i have (love starcraft II and wow) is still windows xp 64-bit. Lol
[04:44] <geckopunk> good choice... very stable OS
[04:44] <geckopunk> no bloated frills either
[04:44] <jasoncinci> :geckopunk: aye
[04:44] <jasoncinci> anyone have a go at installing 10.10 yet?
[04:44] <geckopunk> do you know of any good Computer Certification channels?
[04:45] <jasoncinci> :geckopunk: i do not; let see if google does anything for us.
[04:45] <christopher_> i have the rc
[04:45] <geckopunk> I thought about it... I like my setup the way it is... took me too long to get used to it...
[04:45] <jasoncinci> :geckopunk: any cert particular?
[04:45] <geckopunk> CCNP
[04:45] <geckopunk> you don't have to do that jason...
[04:46] <geckopunk> I don't mean to have you look when I can check also
[04:46] <geckopunk> just wondering if you knew off-hand
[04:46] <christopher_> its what i am on now  i think its 10.10rc2
[04:46] <jasoncinci> :geckopunk: lol I am bored; if you find anythign let me know would like to check it out.
[04:46] <geckopunk> thanks... that's too kind of you man
[04:47] <jasoncinci> :christopher: did you upgrade from 10.04 or fresh install?
[04:47] <christopher_> fresh install, dual boot vista 64.  works very well except for keyboard issue that started at 10.4
[04:47] <geckopunk> If I don't learn the hard way... I shouldn't be here
[04:47] <bivo1> After updates last week I can't load into my wubi install of UNR. After the windows bootloader I get this error for a split second where grub should be loading: To (HD0,0) : NTFS5 NOWUBIDIR
[04:47] <bivo1> To (HD0,1) : NTFS5
[04:47] <jasoncinci> :christopher: what kb issues?
[04:48] <cyrus1> hi, quickshot: is there any virtualizationsoftware, which is able to mount a logical volume as its primary?
[04:48] <fabricio> ola
[04:48] <christopher_> after bootloader my keyboard does not work.  have to unplug it and plug it back in
[04:49] <jasoncinci> :christopher: hmm haven't seen that myself. Anything fancy with the KB or just standard 101 key?
[04:49] <dirtb0x> usb kb?
[04:49] <Belinrahs> I installed the NVIDIA driver and I'm trying to set my display to 1600x1200 and it is not in the list, how I can i get it?
[04:50] <jasoncinci> :Belinrahs: i had issues with that as well; basically came down to mod'ing i believe the xorg.conf files manually instead of using the NVIDIA Display Manager
[04:50] <dirtb0x> add a custom line to your xorg.conf
[04:50] <Ken8521> jasoncinci, what issue was that?
[04:50] <Belinrahs> I'm a new Windows convert (new to linux in general) how would I go about doing that
[04:50] <christopher_> its a microsoft natural keyboard, with a generic ps2->usb that i got somewhere else
[04:51] <jasoncinci> :Ken8521: with the desired resolution not in the list for nvidia card.
[04:51] <Ken8521> jasoncinci, under nvidia-settings?
[04:51] <jasoncinci> :belinrahs: hold on let me see if I can find the bookmark.
[04:51] <Belinrahs> thanks
[04:51] <Ken8521> Belinrahs, is the resolution you want not listed under sys/admin/nvidia-settings?
[04:51] <christopher_> do you remember the line?
[04:51] <Belinrahs> :Ken8521: correct
[04:52] <collosi> Belinrahs:  did you reboot after installing?
[04:52] <Ken8521> wow, thats surprising.
[04:52] <Belinrahs> :collosi: yes
[04:52] <Smilodonis> Belinrahs: Try to use the System testing SYSTEM --- Administration --- System testing. Sometimes it can help, but run only the graphical side of it
[04:52] <Ken8521> mine has at least 15 different resolutions
[04:52] <collosi> Belinrahs:  have you looked in Nvidia server settings?
[04:53] <lucasicf> does anyone uses hydrogen drum machine??
[04:53] <geckopunk> Hey Jason, have you tried the GNS3 app for programming Cisco routers?
[04:54] <Belinrahs> :Smilodonis: Seemed to have no effect
[04:54] <jasoncinci> :geckopunk: no I haven't; i'm a cli guy myself. Even on my ASA
[04:54] <Belinrahs> :collosi: That's where I looked, highest was like 13xx by 760
[04:55] <Belinrahs> 768**
[04:55] <dirtb0x> yer xorg.conf is in the /etc/X11 dir ... just modify the "screen" section ... google it if yer unsure what to change
[04:55] <jasoncinci> :Belinrahs: my apologies but I can't dig up the link any longer, but I know the answer was in the googlverse.
[04:55] <Belinrahs> :jasoncinci: Thanks for all the help, quite impressed with the OS so far
[04:56] <christopher_> thanks anyway, ill have a look around.  i found something before tried it and it seamed to work then problem recured
[04:56] <jasoncinci> :Belinrahs: what nvidia card / monitor are you using?
[04:56] <Belinrahs> :jasoncinci: card is GeForce 9500GT, monitor is an older 22" CRT, connected to card via DVI to VGA adapter
[04:57] <Ken8521> lucasicf, no, i had never used it, but that is one cool program
[04:57] <Ken8521> lol
[04:57] <jasoncinci> :Belinrahs: probably an issue probing the older monitor; search google for xorg.conf set screen resolution and hard code it.
[04:58] <lucasicf> yeah.. i'm trying to play it with the keyboard
[04:58] <lucasicf> but i can't change the buttons
[04:58] <lucasicf> lol
[04:58] <Ken8521> lucasicf, no idea on that... works fine w/ a mouse.
[04:58] <StevenSS> Can someone please help me to use GParted to create a new partition?
[04:59] <moetunes> Belinrahs:  use   xrandr -q   to find out what resolutions X sees is a good place to start
[04:59] <Belinrahs> :moetunes: i'll try that and get back to you asap
[04:59] <shingen1> StevenSS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TK5YezY-Xc&feature=related <-- gparted video on how to create a new partition
[05:00] <Ken8521> StevenSS, whats the problem?
[05:00] <StevenSS> I want to create another partition so that I can chroot into it or whatever and install an additional Linux distro
[05:00] <Belinrahs> :moetunes: first line of the output from that command:
[05:00] <Belinrahs> Screen 0: minimum 320 x 240, current 1024 x 768, maximum 1600 x 1200
[05:01] <Ken8521> StevenSS, you shouldn't need to chroot anything.. the new second linux distro *should* detect the other one, and add it to grub for you.
[05:01] <moetunes> Belinrahs:  it might be wrong rates for the monitor - you'll need to check the X log for errors about it
[05:02] <rudy__> i couldn't get it to mount the fallout 1 iso so now i'm just playing solitaire :P
[05:02] <Belinrahs> :moetunes: the output from that commands seems to imply the system is aware my monitor can do 1600x1200. that's the res I'm trying to attain
[05:02] <moetunes> Belinrahs:  you can try   xrandr -s 1600x1200   to see if it works
[05:02] <VegasMike4> Hi all, I have Q_chat installed on 2 of my ubuntu machines. Just trying to figure out how to find and add one another to my chat rooms...???
[05:03] <Belinrahs> :moetunes: Failed to change the screen configuration!
[05:03] <moetunes> Belinrahs:  it might not do that res 'cause the refresh rates etc for the monitor are wrong
[05:03] <Crash1hd> can anyone see how I can tell if this script is actually working http://www.pastie.org/1206908
[05:03] <moetunes> Belinrahs:  it might be wrong rates for the monitor - you'll need to check the X log for errors about it
[05:03] <Ken8521> VegasMike4, thats an application issue, really need to take it up w/ the writers of the app.
[05:03] <bivo1> After updates last week I can't load into my wubi install of UNR. After the windows bootloader I get this error for a split second where grub should be loading: To (HD0,0) : NTFS5 NOWUBIDIR
[05:03] <bivo1> To (HD0,1) : NTFS5
[05:03] <Belinrahs> :moetunes: I know the refresh should be 75 Hz, does that help
[05:03] <Belinrahs> :moetunes: ok
[05:03] <collosi> rudy_:  did you try: sudo mount -t iso9660 theiso.iso /location/of/where/you/want/to/mount/ -o loop
[05:03] <VegasMike4> I'm surprised it's not obvious
[05:04] <Ken8521> VegasMike4, wel, if it were obvious, i'm guessing you would not be here
[05:04] <VegasMike4> indeed
[05:05] <VegasMike4> I feel dumb and desperate
[05:05] <Ken8521> yeah.. that doesn't really make it an ubuntu issue though.
[05:06] <VegasMike4> I di get it via the ubuntu repository
[05:06] <Ken8521> VegasMike4, http://www.qualcomm.com/products_services/mobile_content_services/voice/qchat.html
[05:06] <Ken8521> VegasMike4, doesn't really matter, this isn't exactly application support..
[05:06] <VegasMike4> Okay... sorry
[05:07] <Ken8521> no need to apologize.. there's a support link on that site, hopefully they can help you
[05:07] <Crash1hd> or is there a better channel for sh support?
[05:08] <nogo> i don't use ash
[05:08] <hdtdi> hi, i installed ubuntu 10.4, i configured it the way i want, now is there a way to save this configuration sothat after i dont know lets say 6 mounts if i mess up something i can restore to exactly this configuration now?
[05:08] <sendblink23> does anybody know anything of gnome-shell ?
[05:09] <Belinrahs> what is console command to restart x?
[05:09] <shingen> startx
[05:10] <moetunes> Belinrahs:  sudo service gdm restart    iirc
[05:11] <root> is anyone good with very basic java programing?
[05:11] <geckopunk> of course, he left
[05:11] <nogo> java is dead

[05:12] <SporkWitch> moetunes: do i hear an "pwnd" incoming? lol
[05:12] <Guest80378> moetunes y is it bad
[05:12] <SporkWitch> Guest80378: it's bad to do anything as root, but an improperly configured iRC client is SCREAMING for you to have your box taken over
[05:12] <moetunes> heh
[05:12] <SporkWitch> even i could probably do it right now, and i'm a nub lol
[05:13] <Guest80378> i have nothing on my linux distro im running backtrack 4 final
[05:13] <Guest80378> no pic no vids nothing
[05:13] <SporkWitch> anything else on your network?
[05:13] <Guest80378> ps3 haha and y 3d tv
[05:13] <SporkWitch> always easier to get into the other boxes if you've got an in on the local network
[05:13] <Guest80378> my*
[05:14] <moetunes> Guest80378:  you could ask in #programming - but I suspect they won't let you in
[05:14] <SporkWitch> fair enough, all joking aside, though, it's REALLY bad to run as root.  don't do it.  if only to get yourself into the habit
[05:14] <shingen> he'll still make a good shell host to send out spam emails :P

[05:14] <Ed__> Hi I just installed Ubuntu Server with VNC on my laptop, I can VNC into the laptop, however when I pull the HD out of the laptop and place it in a device with no monitor I can't VNC into it.  Does anybody have any suggestions or maybe a VNC channel I should go to?
[05:14] <Guest80378> ok i wont i never use irc anyways
[05:14] <Guest80378> just because im stuck
[05:15] <nogo> stuck in the past?
[05:15] <shingen> Guest80378: if you ever wonder why your modem light is blinking when you're not viewing any web pages or downloading anything, it's cuz you're part of a botnet :)
[05:15] <collosi> haha
[05:16] <moetunes> Ed__:  anything in the X log give a clue?
[05:16] <nogo> people turn off their desktop ubuntu in short time
[05:16] <nogo> so, this is not an issue
[05:16] <Guest80378> lol ok then
[05:16] <Ed__> moetunes where would i find that in? var/log?
[05:17] <moetunes> Ed__:  grep /var/log/Xorg.0.log for EE

[05:18] <sendblink23> can anybody help me with installing gnome-shell
[05:18] <nogo> if you have no x, it's debian, not ubuntu
[05:18] <Ed__> i honestly just put the ubuntu server on tonight and put on vnc access
[05:18] <Low023> Anyone around that can maybe help me with removing grub?
[05:19] <olskolirc> before i cream this system and go back to debian, can someone tell me how to get /media/cdrom my drive is now /dev/sr0 on Maverick
[05:19] <moetunes> Low023:  you want the windows booter back?
[05:19] <olskolirc> quickly, im about to reboot and install debian :-)
[05:19] <Low023> I want to fixmbr but I only have the asus win 7 reinstalation disk so I dont have the regular tools to do it
[05:19] <Low023> yeah
[05:19] <Low023> moetunes yes
[05:19] <sendblink23> the win 7 disk will help you out
[05:20] <moetunes> Low023:  someone in ##windows will ahve a clue on that

[05:21]  * Ed__ is an idiot
[05:21] <moetunes> Ed__:  if you have an xorg.conf rename it

[05:22] <sendblink23> "http://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell" on the part is says  jhbuild build ... after downloading 200mb file.. it suddenly gets stuck
[05:22] <Ed__> moetunes and then swap the drive again?

[05:23] <moetunes> Ed__:  or logout/login
[05:23] <sendblink23> gnome-shell   :P
[05:23] <Ed__> my intention is to take the laptop hard drive out put it in a box with no monitor
[05:23] <Ed__> and vnc to it
[05:23] <Ed__> so if i just change that xorg.conf
[05:23] <Ed__> toa nother name
[05:23] <Ed__> it will re write itself
[05:23] <Ed__> and let me vnc?
[05:23] <FloodBot4> Ed__: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:23] <collosi> sendblinks23:  sorry I have no idea why
[05:23] <moetunes> Ed__:  you don't have ssh for the lappy?
[05:24] <Ed__> ill get openssh:)
[05:24] <moetunes> Ed__:  just don't have a xorg.conf in there and X will sort itself out
[05:24] <sendblink23> no problem thanks, I'm trying to get on their IRC but somehow I can't connect to it :/
[05:24] <Low023> there is Crickets in windows lol
[05:24] <Ed__> where would xorg.conf be in ?

[05:25] <Sivarts> I am putting 2 PCI video cards in a desktop - I want to connect 4 displays and have each show a different thing will this work easily with Ubuntu?
[05:26] <RudyValencia> Sivarts: I think it may

[05:26] <Sivarts> I want to run a seperate session of qiv to show different images on each screen (These are kiosks)
[05:27] <Sivarts> that seem feasible?
[05:27] <moetunes> sendblink23:  does it say why it gets stuck? - gives an error?
[05:27] <sendblink23> I posted it here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1476241&page=79   read the last post
[05:28] <RedSingularity> Anyone know of a repository that will keep my ALSA drivers updated????
[05:28] <nogo> there is no oss or alsa in ubuntu
[05:29] <Ed__> moetunes: I do not have an xorg.conf file
[05:29] <nogo> there is no esd too
[05:29] <moetunes> Ed__:  can you paste the X log?
[05:29] <moetunes> !paste | Ed__
[05:30] <rudy__> colosi:  no, I haven't, but when I tried mounting it in one of the apps in ubuntu's software catalog, it mounted it in /media.. but the contents of the ISO were empty.  I'm thinking that I will h ave to install daemontools with WINE and then run the ISO in daemontools for the auto-run to work
[05:30] <collosi> rudy_:  you definitely dont have to do that
[05:30] <Ed__> http://paste.ubuntu.com/508503/
[05:31] <moetunes> k
[05:31] <rudy__> ok.. so should I try the command you suggested then?
[05:31] <collosi> rudy_:  create a new folder in /media called ISO or DVD
[05:31] <rudy__> and then use the command to mount it there...
[05:31] <moetunes> Ed__:  the whole thing pls
[05:31] <sendblink23> can anybody test it out.. installing it to see if it errors on the same place
[05:31] <rudy__> btw what I'm tryng to do is install and run the original Fallout :)
[05:31] <collosi> rudy_:  then use the command I gave you to mount it, should work like a charm
[05:31] <kermit> wow evolution *by default* deletes your whole inbox on your pop server
[05:32] <collosi> rudy_:  ive used that for wine installs
[05:32] <rudy__> ok then cool, i'll try that and get back to you
[05:33] <calvin> hello
[05:33] <Crash1hd> Would it be bad to run sh script that checks for changes in the svn on a server continuesly? <-- on a server that i pay to have access to ?
[05:33] <dborba> Having a hard time getting shortcuts to move a windows to a specific workspace to work. Anyone know what the issue might be?
[05:33] <Ed__> http://paste.ubuntu.com/508505/
[05:33] <moetunes> Ed__:  from that little bit it seems the intel module needs a monitor connected
[05:33] <rudy__> one more thing I'd like to add.. the command line is sexy...
[05:33] <Crash1hd> or better yet is there a way of knowing how much memory a script is using?
[05:34] <tim> does any one know how to change the "ubuntu loading" screen. The screen in between bios (or grub if you have it) and the login screen, and the screen in between desktop and shut off?
[05:34] <collosi> tim: you talking about the splash screen?
[05:34] <moetunes> Ed__:  /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d is a dir where the X settings are now - anything intel in there?
[05:34] <AbhiJit> tim, try ubuntu tweak
[05:35] <tim> collosi, no, the loading screen
[05:35] <hdtdi> hi, i installed ubuntu 10.4, i configured it the way i want, now is there a way to save this configuration sothat after i dont know lets say 6 mounts if i mess up something i can restore to exactly this configuration now?
[05:35] <AbhiJit> tim, the one with name ubuntu and four dots under it?
[05:35] <tim> AbhiJit, ubuntu software center
[05:35] <Ed__> moetunes: that conf.d file is empty
[05:35] <tim> AbhiJit, exactly
[05:35] <dborba> hdtdi, depends what kind of configurations you've made. usually backing up your home folder is enough
[05:35] <AbhiJit> tim, there is one ap called ubuntu tweak try it see if it does this
[05:35] <nogo> tim: if you can do that, you are smarter than mint guys
[05:35] <sendblink23> hdtdi  Clone the hard drive or the partition
[05:35] <kwtm> Help! Need to stop NetworkManager, but it keeps respawning.  I think that's what's cutting off my network connection every few minutes, after I successfully manually do "sudo dhclient".  How do I stop NetworkManager?  (Kubuntu 10.04)
[05:36] <collosi> tim:  I think that would be done in grub, try a google search
[05:36] <tim> nogo, i am already smarter than mint guys
[05:36] <moetunes> Ed__:  there should be a couple of files in that dir afaik
[05:36] <nogo> hahaha
[05:36] <hdtdi> dborba, installed some apache php mysql some programs and i have some files
[05:36] <Ed__> start  x11perfcomp  xedit  xorg.conf.d  xsm
[05:36] <nogo> mint guys just remove the picture
[05:36] <kwtm> hdtdi: I think what you want is to save the ~/.gconf directory (copy it to ~/gconf-backup or something).  Someone else will have to verify the name of this directory --I don't use GNOME so I am not sure.
[05:36] <toonacid> I've seen people use ns1.domain.com for their FQDN. I switched my FQDN to www.domain.com and it works just as well. Is anyone able to explain if it really SHOULD be ns1.domain.com? Should I change my hosts back to that?
[05:37] <rudy__> hmm... it looks like it's already mounted in /media from the command line.. i didn't even have to use your suggestion colosi...
[05:37] <MrMagoo> Hi folks, been fighting this for a day now - any ideas really appreciated. Can't boot into gnome, lots of broken packages. From recovery console, all errors seem to point to "gconftool-2: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_regex_unref
[05:37] <tim> AbhiJit, where do i find ubuntu tweak?
[05:37] <dborba> hdtdi, i see - that's a bit trickier if you want to keep the whole lamp configuration. might have to clone the whole drive or save the specific files by hand
[05:37] <MrMagoo> "...but I can't reinstall libglib because it requires the broken package to install. Any ideas?
[05:38] <sendblink23> exactly what i suggested before lol
[05:38] <tim> never mind
[05:38] <AbhiJit> tim, http://tinyurl.com/2w3asjo
[05:38] <kwtm> MrMagoo: first thoughts that come to mind: you have a library problem --did you erase some library files or have some drive corrupted?  Oh, can't install libglib?
[05:39] <hdtdi> dborba, so there is no such thing as "save and compress the whole system" and when you mess up, restore "from the saved system as it was"
[05:39] <Ed__> moetunes I see: start  x11perfcomp  xedit  xorg.conf.d  xsm
[05:39] <kwtm> MrMagoo: what do you mean, needs broken package to install?  You are unable to purge then reinstall?
[05:39] <tim> AbhiJit, i ain't clickin on no tinyurl
[05:39] <MrMagoo> kwtm: Yeah, the first error I fought was "run fsck manually" which found a bunch of misallocated blocks.
[05:39] <AbhiJit> ahhhh
[05:39] <AbhiJit> tim, then google yourself
[05:39] <moetunes> Ed__:  from a quick google the issue seems to be with using gdm for auto login - what I do is NOT use gdm and ssh to login and have vncserver start in autostarted apps
[05:39] <nogo> he is not wisley gibson
[05:39] <Ed__> k moe
[05:40] <Ed__> that would be correct
[05:40] <kwtm> MrMagoo: can you boot into CLI?
[05:40] <tim> AbhiJit, I found it already, i appreciate your advice, we'll see what happens
[05:40] <MrMagoo> kwtm: Any apt-get process (including sudo dkpg --reinstall -a) brings up that error, so uninstalling/reinstalling is failing at the moment.
[05:40] <MrMagoo> kwtm: In recovery console, yes
[05:40] <MrMagoo> kwtm: Correction: apt-get brings up a "dpkg failure" error....dpkg tasks bring up the aforementioned. ;-)
[05:41] <sendblink23> hdtdi  you are thinking like if its how an OEM computer does.. having a recovery option
[05:41] <kwtm> Hmm, if dpkg is broken, it's going to be tricky. 2 thoughts: reinstall, or boot from live CD and fix the disk.  What do you think --is the data on disk (incl. your libglib) completely screwed?
[05:41] <dborba> hdtdi, not built it - there might be something in the repo that does it though. check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem - might have something that works for u
[05:41] <glebihan> MrMagoo: did you try "sudo apt-get -f install" ?
[05:41] <hdtdi> thanks
[05:41] <kwtm> glebihan: Doubt if apt-get -f install will work if dpkg is not working....
[05:41] <AbhiJit> tim, http://tuxtweaks.com/2010/04/how-to-select-the-splash-screen-in-ubuntu-lucid/
[05:42] <glebihan> kwtm: well it does sometimes, and cannot hurt anyway
[05:42] <crashdata> anyone here familiar with gphoto2
[05:42] <kwtm> MrMagoo: does purging via dpkg (forgot exact command) work?
[05:43] <MrMagoo> kwtm: I've tried running it through LiveCD...can dpkg files be fixed from there? (The 'fix disc' option fails to do anything, but maybe packages can be installed onto the correct partition from inside a LiveCD instance?)
[05:43] <glebihan> kwtm, MrMagoo : dpkg --purge
[05:43] <kwtm> Meanwhile, anyone here know how to stop Network Manager?
[05:43] <dborba> hdtdi, now that i think about it - i think there is an app called sbackup that might do the trick for you. Here's something on how to get started with it: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/backup-and-restore-your-ubuntu-system-using-sbackup.html - if you wanna save the whole system you have to backup /
[05:43] <MrMagoo> glebihan: Yes, sadly no joy.
[05:43] <MrMagoo> glbihan: Hmm...haven't tried a purge...2 mins
[05:43] <glebihan> kwtm: sudo service network-manager stop
[05:43] <crashdata> i have 3 folders in my d300 camera. i'm looking to download a specific file from one of the folder
[05:43] <kwtm> glebihan: THanks!  WIll try.
[05:43] <hdtdi> dborba, thanks very much
[05:44] <crashdata> but gphoto2 -f 'folder' -p 1950
[05:44] <dborba> hdtdi, np
[05:44] <crashdata> gives me an error about missing quotation
[05:44] <ranjan> Hi all, Is there a Text to speech synthesizer available for Linux better than festival?
[05:45] <AbhiJit> ranjan, type orca in terminal
[05:45] <kwtm> glebihan: Looks like it's working.  Will need 5 minutes to tell, but thx much!
[05:45] <ranjan> AbhiJit: Orca is the screen reader no?
[05:45] <AbhiJit> yes
[05:45] <glebihan> kwtm: you're welcome
[05:45] <crashdata> hello
[05:46] <sendblink23> it talks to the monsters on the screen *Orca
[05:46] <kwtm> MrMagoo: isn't libglib one of those essential libraries?  You might be looking at a reinstallation here.  How many partitions on your hard drive, just out of curiosity?  GOt the data in a separate drive?
[05:46] <AbhiJit> ranjan, yes
[05:46] <ranjan> AbhiJit: i want to save the thing as ogg or wav
[05:46] <glebihan> crashdata: could you pastebin the exact command and error message ?
[05:46] <AbhiJit> ranjan, hmm dunno
[05:46] <kwtm> ranjan: I've just used e-speak, which is fairly basic.  How's festival?
[05:47] <ranjan> kwtm: festival is nice but the natural feel is not coming in the voice :(
[05:47] <ranjan> kwtm: do you know whether festival can be extended with more natural voices?
[05:47] <MrMagoo> kwtm: Yeah, I think it might be. The data is recoverable, but it's my main machine so if at all possible, I'd love to save it. Still, it's looking increasingly like data recovery might be the most I can hope for
[05:47] <kwtm> ranjan: Not familiar with festival;sorry.
[05:47] <kwtm> MrMagoo: THis is what I do:
[05:48] <ranjan> kwtm: ok :)
[05:48] <kwtm> MrMagoo: (some of this you would have needed to do beforehand, so this is for future reference, and let's see how we can apply this to you)
[05:48] <MrMagoo> kwtm: *nods*
[05:49] <tiox> Hey there peoples
[05:49] <kwtm> MrMagoo: I have 1 big data partition, 2 small partitions for actual OS.  I install (k)Ubuntu on 1 small partition, then set up to mount the big data partition (most people mount it under /home; I make my own modifications).
[05:49] <sendblink23> should it be possible to recover it using a livecd?
[05:49] <TRJ021782> Hello all
[05:49] <zdc> arch好用吗
[05:49] <ggyyliiy> hey
[05:49] <kwtm> MrMagoo: If anything fails or starts to fail, then I install Ubuntu on 2nd small partition (e.g. if I am upgrading to next version, I never actualy upgrade the currently used system).  ANd I also mount big data partition on /home or whatever.
[05:50] <kwtm> MrMagoo: That way: you always have the big data partition, but it's easy to switch to another root partition for dual booting, or if something gets screwed up.  Now, to apply it to your case:
[05:50] <MrMagoo> kwtm: Ahh, nice. Yeah...probably should have done that
[05:50] <TRJ021782> Well i have been banned from the Yellow Dog forum for a week
[05:50] <sendblink23> too bad
[05:51] <crashdata> glebihan, here is the patebin http://pastebin.com/EdP0Skc6
[05:51] <kwtm> MrMagoo: You may need to somehow create a small data partition to do a fresh install of Ubuntu.  You can try gparted (I don't recommend QtParted), or commercial programs like PartitionMagic or PartitionExpert from Acronis (which is what I use; $45 from Internet 6 yrs ago)
[05:51] <crashdata> here is the pastebin for gphoto2 http://pastebin.com/EdP0Skc6
[05:51] <ggyyliiy> Question: I just loaded Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit on my laptop but the screen has all these horizontal lines across it and the picture is not centered. What do I do?
[05:51] <zdc> 这儿能看到中文吗
[05:52] <kwtm> MrMagoo: WHat's your situation?  One big partition?  Full?  Familiar with gparted/PartitionMagic?
[05:52] <ggyyliiy> me?
[05:52] <tim> AbhiJit, do you have ubuntu tweak?
[05:52] <AbhiJit> !cn | zdc
[05:52] <AbhiJit> tim, yes and it dont have setting for splash screen i checked it after i told you!!! :P
[05:52] <AbhiJit> tim, i gave you another url above? have you seen it?
[05:52] <TRJ021782> Anything interesting in here?
[05:53] <glebihan> crashdata: what version of gphoto2 are you using ?
[05:53] <tiox> I found a neat tweak for people who dislike the min/max/close buttons on the right. But I think it still needs a little extra assistance to make it right.
[05:53] <AbhiJit> TRJ021782, may be in #ubuntu-offtopic?
[05:53] <tiox> Left, rather.
[05:53] <kwtm> Okay, I need deeper help. Something keeps cutting off my ethernet connection, and it's not Network Manager.  It's not even wifi; it's ethernet!  I can forcibly do "sudo dhclient" and I can connect to home router, but after a few minutes it automatically disconnects.  What on earth!
[05:53] <zdc> ubottu 谢谢
[05:53] <crashdata> glebihan, 2.4.9
[05:53] <MrMagoo> kwtm: 1x data partition, 1 x new(dead) partition, 1x Windows partition. At the moment I'm just going into liveCD, taking all the necessary stuff from the dead Lin partition & putting it onto the Win Partition, then uploading to remote server.
[05:53] <tim> AbhiJit, it has login settings but they are greyed out...
[05:53] <kwtm> zdc: I can read your Chinese but we're on an English channel.  CUrrently have no chinese input.  Sorry.
[05:53] <tim> yeah i saw that
[05:53] <TRJ021782> AbhiJit - I'm sorry what?
[05:53] <MrMagoo> kwtm: & yeah, I'm reasonably comfortable in gParted
[05:53] <nogo> ignorance is the best blessing
[05:54] <zdc> kwtm:同样感谢
[05:54] <AbhiJit> tim,  loging setting are not for splash screen. you have to click on a unlock button on bottom right side to unlock it
[05:54] <glebihan> crashdata: looks like a known bug, which should be fixed in version 2.5.0 (no idea when it'll be released)
[05:54] <MrMagoo> kwtm: Very little space left on drive, but I'm more than happy to overwrite the Windows partition...it's never used anyhow
[05:54] <glebihan> crashdata: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=84757
[05:54] <kwtm> MrMagoo: How big is dead partition?  Partition itself is not really dead, just that the software on it won't boot, right?  Consider splitting that partition and installing new Ubuntu so you at least have running gnome.  But agree move stuff out of dead partition first.
[05:54] <tiox> If nature tells you min/max/close is on the right, press Alt+F2 and type in gconf-editor. Then under the apps branch, go to metacity, general, there's something called button_layout. Change it to :minimize,maximize,close
[05:55] <tiox> But then I have this unsightly gap on the left of the window title. How can I fix that?
[05:55] <crashdata> glebihan, so there is no fix for this rightnow?
[05:55] <MrMagoo> kwtm: Yeah, that's the plan. Cheers.
[05:55] <kwtm> MrMagoo: sounds like you should put stuff from dead partition into data partition (big partition, right?) not Win partition.  You may want to install Ubuntu onto Win partition.  If you configure things right, you can hit the ground running.
[05:55] <tiox> It looks like there's suppose to be a program button there.
[05:55] <Meg> hello tiox it's Meg from last night
[05:56] <tim> AbhiJit, i understand that. but i want to tweak the whole startup sequence, and i like the gui of ubuntu tweak, so i'm going to play with it for a while
[05:56] <tiox> Hi Meg!
[05:56] <tiox> Got it working?
[05:56] <kwtm> MrMagoo: Okay.  Best of luck.  Sounds like you already know how to mount your "dead" partition so it's also visible from newly installed Ubuntuwin partition
[05:56] <Meg> nope
[05:56] <TRJ021782> My copy of Qemu freezes during compiling, always on the translate.o file - anyone have any advice?
[05:56] <tiox> Awww...
[05:56] <Meg> I went into BIOS and couldn't find a way to change the controller
[05:56] <glebihan> crashdata: apparently not, there a bug report on launchpad (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libgphoto2/+bug/144585) which has been opened for 3 years and still isn't closed...
[05:56] <tiox> Well, last night i tried, but the BIOS in my mother's machine is an Insyde H2O.
[05:56] <Meg> did some searches too and can't find any info
[05:56] <tiox> Tried the USB installer?
[05:57] <MrMagoo> kwtm: Insufficient space on data partition, otherwise would. Anyhow, thanks. To be honest I've been putting off getting a new laptop anyhow...I think this is it's way of saying time for a new one. Cheers.
[05:57] <Meg> yes my BIOS doesn't have the ability to boot from a USB
[05:57] <collosi> TRJ021782: try virtual box
[05:57] <crashdata> glebihan, ic good stuff..
[05:57] <Meg> Satellite M35X
[05:58] <Meg> it only has 4 options, hard drive, removable devices, cd/dvd, and network
[05:58] <tiox> Is there an option to press F2 or F12 on boot?
[05:58] <Meg> yea
[05:58] <tiox> Or some other button to enter BIOS setup?
[05:58] <tiox> So you can access the boot manager.
[05:58] <collosi> Meg:  wouldn't removable devices be USB?
[05:58] <tiox> If you can access the bios or boot manager, then you need to intervene to make it work.
[05:59] <tiox> Otherwise it will always go to IDE0 or whatever the main drive is called.
[05:59] <Meg> yea that's how I got it to boot from the cd
[05:59] <Meg> moved cd to the top
[05:59] <Belinrahs> trying to set a custom resolution on my nvidia video card, could someone give me a hand?
[05:59] <Meg> collosi: That's what I thought
[05:59] <tiox> And you tried again, modifying the BIOS while the USB drive is plugged in?
[05:59] <TRJ021782> collosi well not exactly what i was looking for but i guess i will try
[05:59] <tiox> See, that's the trick -- Devices must be attached to have the BIOS see them after POST.
[05:59] <collosi> Meg:  what exactly are you trying to do, sorry tiox for butting in
[05:59] <Datz> Hi, what are these "other_vhost.log that I am seeing in /var/log/  How can I stop apache from creating these?
[06:00] <tiox> collosi, she is trying to get the Ubuntu installer to work.
[06:00] <Meg> I don't recall if I did
[06:00] <collosi> TRJ021782:  what exactly are you trying to do with QEMU?
[06:00] <tiox> On her Toshiba laptop she is failing hard.
[06:00] <Meg> will try it now
[06:00] <Belinrahs> trying to set a custom resolution on my nvidia video card, could someone give me a hand?
[06:00] <Meg> got this up on my desktop pc
[06:00] <tiox> Cool.
[06:01] <Meg> USB still doesn't appear in the list of boot devices
[06:01] <tiox> Okay... is the ;abel of the drive there?
[06:01] <tiox> label*
[06:01] <kwtm> Ok, no one answering my question about network cutting off --understandable.  How about this: how can I regress those automatic apt-get upgrades back (say) 1 week ago when I (ahem) HAD WORKING NETWORKING on my laptop?  (sorry, kinda frustrated right now)
[06:01] <tiox> I mean, if there is nothing, I believe you.
[06:01] <collosi> Meg:  do you have an option during POST to boot from a device usually something like F12?
[06:02] <tiox> Coll, yes.
[06:02] <Belinrahs> trying to set a custom resolution on my nvidia video card, could someone give me a hand? please?
[06:02] <tiox> She did say that.
[06:02] <Meg> yes I am in the bios right now
[06:02] <tiox> And if it';s not in BIOS, it certainly won't be in boot manager.
[06:02] <glebihan> kwtm: no way to do that automatically... all you can do is downgrade the packages you know have upgraded
[06:02] <tiox> Meg, answer me this.
[06:03] <tiox> Did you try burning the CD using Infra Recorder?
[06:03] <collosi> Belinrahs:  have you tried out xrandr?
[06:03] <tiox> Because that si what I use.
[06:03] <Meg> yea that's how I made it
[06:03] <tiox> Default settings, lowered drive speed makes burning the image on disk foolproof.
[06:03] <zdc> 朋友们，有谁知道在gnome下怎样记住窗口的大小和位置啊，不会没有办法吧，fluxbox都有这个功能的
[06:03] <Belinrahs> :collosi: I used that many times, I added the mode, checked to see if the resolution was there, no dice..restart X, and the mode is magically gone from xrandr
[06:03] <Meg> I did the md5sum hash check before that and verified the CD after it was made
[06:03] <tiox> Also, look in your BIOS some more for a controller type option.
[06:03] <maco> !cn | zdc
[06:04] <AbhiJit> hmmm someone look at zdc
[06:04] <tiox> I mentioned this last night -- I have to use IDE over ACHI to run CDs.
[06:04] <kwtm> glebihan: Darn. Thx. Is there anything I can do to find out what happens to the network every few minutes?  I can pin down to the exact second the moment my network goes out (with ping), but need to know what program is doing that.
[06:04] <kwtm> glebihan: ifconfig and route don't seem to help.
[06:04] <zdc> ubottu: 那边没有人知道
[06:04] <Meg> yea I can't find a controller option
[06:04] <tiox> I don't know your BIOS. I don't have your computer, so I don;t know your computer.'
[06:04] <kwtm> zdc: Do you need help translating your question to ENglish?
[06:04] <tiox> Also, that's poopy.
[06:04] <kwtm> zdc wants to know how to make GNome remember window size/position.  I don't use GNOME so I can't help.  Anyone?
[06:05] <glebihan> kwtm: I don't know, maybe "dmesg" ?
[06:05] <tiox> Meg, you might have to give up on installing through CD pre-boot and go into Windows and use Wubi.
[06:05] <zdc> kwtm: 谢谢，朋友们能看清就行
[06:05] <kwtm> glebihan: Tried that, too, but good thought.  BUt is there another log other than dmesg?  LIke, is there "dmesg --network" or something?
[06:05] <maco> zdc: ubottu不是一个人
[06:05] <Meg> ok what is Wubi, sounds like a security blankie lol
[06:05] <tiox> THough, as I said, try again with a new disk and a lower drive speed.
[06:05] <tiox> Wubi is the Windows installer for Ubuntu.
[06:05] <kwtm> zdc: If unable to type English, why not use Google translate?
[06:05] <tiox> Comes with the CD.
[06:05] <collosi> Belinrahs:  have you tired editing your xorg.conf file
[06:05] <tiox> I mean, after you burined the image.
[06:05] <Rohanc> my flash player in Ubuntu 10.04 64bit is not working.. how do I correct it?
[06:05] <tiox> b uraburned*
[06:05] <kwtm> Wait, maco speaks Chinese?  Or is that translate.google.com/maco?
[06:05] <tiox> ...
[06:05] <Meg> oh ok
[06:06] <tiox> Burned**
[06:06] <FloodBot4> tiox: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:06] <Meg> is that through putting the disk in while in windows
[06:06] <zdc> kwtm: 谢谢，我知道
[06:06] <maco> kwtm: google translate. japanese is the only asian language i can do
[06:06] <kwtm> Holy cow, sign language, CHinese, what's next?  Klingonaase?
[06:06] <maco> kwtm: spanish, japanese, russian, sign language for me
[06:06] <Belinrahs> :collosi: Tried that and nvidia-settings will not show the resolution as an option, and if I restart gdm my change to xorg.conf magically goes away
[06:06] <collosi> Meg:  you technically dont even have to put a CD in if you can somehow mount the ISO in windows
[06:06] <maco> kwtm: in that order of learning, but not at all in that order of proficiency
[06:06] <tiox> Really?
[06:06] <psycho_oreos> !cn | zdc
[06:07] <tiox> That's an interesting tidbid.
[06:07] <tiox> tidbit*
[06:07] <tiox> If she does this, wouldn't that make Windows inaccessible?
[06:07] <glebihan> kwtm: not sure, look in /var/log if you can find something useful...
[06:07] <kwtm> glebihan: Okay... maybe "tail -f /var/log/something"....
[06:07] <zdc> Friends, who know how to remember the next gnome window size and position of, ah, no way it will not, fluxbox has this feature
[06:07] <Meg> uh, okay here is another thing I have tried
[06:07] <collosi> Belinrahs:  hmmm, how about trying: sudo Xorg -configure
[06:08] <glebihan> kwtm: yes maybe, but I can't see anything looking like a network log here
[06:08] <collosi> Belinrahs:  sounds like your xorg.conf file is being rewritten to a default one
[06:08] <Belinrahs> collosi: just tried, got "Fatal server error, Server is already active for display 0"
[06:08] <Meg> I put the CD in while I was at my windows desktop and it came up with the option to install ubuntu over windows or beside windows
[06:08] <tiox> Meg, we want to remind you, just because we know you're most likely frustrated: Most times an installation is quick and easy. It's your machine being the problem if you took every precaution to burn a CD correctly, tweak your BIOS etc.
[06:09] <moetunes> Belinrahs:  you need to make a new modeline in the monitor section for the reolution you want
[06:09] <collosi> Belinrahs:  you need to kill gdm to run that
[06:09] <SporkWitch> where would i go to change what i'm using for audio?  Pretty sure it's using ALSA right now, someone suggested trying something else (O-something, i think?) to see if resolves the intermittent issues i've been seeing
[06:09] <glebihan> Belinrahs: pass the command the "-display :1" option
[06:09] <Belinrahs> moetunes: I did several times, when I went to restart gdm the changes to xorg.conf went away
[06:09] <Meg> I this bios seems quite simplistic, PhoenixBIOS
[06:09] <glebihan> Belinrahs: or "-display 1" I don't know
[06:10] <Meg> there isn't much to change
[06:10] <Belinrahs> glebihan: "unrecognized option: -display"
[06:10] <zdc> Friends, who know how to remember the next gnome window size and position of, ah, no way it will not, fluxbox has this feature
[06:10] <Belinrahs> !cn | zdc
[06:10] <collosi> Belinrahs:  are you changing xorg.conf as root?  just making sure
[06:10] <Belinrahs> collosi: yes
[06:10] <collosi> Belinrahs:  nm my question doesnt make sense
[06:11] <glebihan> Belinrahs: oh right that's an option to "X" not "Xorg", note that you can run "sudo X -configure" also
[06:11] <Meg> I tried using the CD to install Ubuntu alongside windows from within it and then rebooting
[06:12] <Belinrahs> glebihan: I tried sudo X -configure and with the -display option, no difference
[06:12] <collosi> Meg:  what went wrong?
[06:12] <glebihan> Belinrahs: well then you should try stopping gdm and running the command from a VT
[06:12] <Meg> it gives me the option to either boot ubuntu or windows and when I selected ubuntu it hangs after the screen with Ubuntu and the flashing dot progress thing
[06:12] <collosi> Belinrahs:  can you verify with another screen that xorg can be changed?
[06:13] <el_seano> #ubuntu, which is the best text-based browser?
[06:13] <el_seano> extra credit:  which, if any, has vim-like key mappings on default?
[06:13] <HaxXxoR> i keep getting Could not get lock open when i try to install samba any ideas
[06:13] <Jeruvy> !poll | el_seano
[06:13] <HaxXxoR> wow nevermind
[06:13] <el_seano> Jeruvy: my bad :D
[06:13] <collosi> Meg:  have you tried installing it again
[06:14] <PCChris> I want to use awk to extract all portions of a file that are between http:// and double quotes...any advice on how to do this?
[06:15] <Meg> when I select the option to boot ubuntu now it says "finalizing the installation" like it did the first time
[06:16] <moetunes> PCChris:  cut   is easier for that imo
[06:16] <kwtm> Wow, are there now anti-flamewar bot-blurbs now? :) :)
[06:16] <HaxXxoR> kind of a dumb question but im new with ubuntu and cannot figure out how to access other pcs on my network
[06:16] <kwtm> ubottu, vi is way better than emacs, RIGHT????
[06:16] <izinucs> PCChris: you might ask in #bash .. at least I think there's a channel like that.
[06:16] <glebihan> PCChris: I'd use sed rather than awk
[06:16] <tiox> \Crap.
[06:16] <Meg> lol
[06:17] <maco> kwtm: you just made a factoid suggestioin :P
[06:17] <tiox> Guys, what does it mean when I receive a child_rip?
[06:17] <tiox> Because under both ACHI and compatibilirty I get it.
[06:17] <collosi> Meg:  I would reinstall
[06:18] <Meg> from inside Windows?
[06:18] <collosi> Meg:  that is up to you
[06:18] <Meg> cause now I can't get it to do the boot from the CD
[06:18] <Meg> ok
[06:18] <tiox> I will ask again, what does child-rip mean when running from CD?
[06:18] <zruty> SIOCADDRT: No such process. Why is that...?
[06:18] <tiox> I see the first splash on my mother's laptop, but after that it's like the CD tells me the load process died.
[06:18] <tiox> It's a Toshiba, BTW.
[06:19] <rawbeef64> hello everyone
[06:19] <Meg> i hate to think my cd drive is bad, but that could mess up the install right
[06:19] <glebihan> tiox: did you check md5 for your cd ?
[06:20] <rawbeef64> I'm using  NetXtreme BCM5754 Ethernet card with Ubunt Server 10.04 LTS and I have reasons to believe that the driver is faulty, causing network disconnects
[06:20] <collosi> tiox:  if you think that is the case then using wubi to install would be a better option
[06:20] <rawbeef64> (64-bit)
[06:20] <rawbeef64> the official driver from Broadcom is in rpm format only, is there another workarround?
[06:20] <Tashia> How can I use the remote connection software remotely? I have a wireless router that would have to forward a port. So what port does the builtin remote software use?

[06:21] <tiox> SO huh.
[06:21] <tiox> I can load from USB for some reason.

[06:28] <zedeee> glebihan: do u mean to download the livecd.iso from site n then burn the iso to cd or use some software to extract the iso to cd?
[06:29] <student> 這個是什麼程式
[06:29] <collosi> Meg:  I dont see why you need to do that
[06:29] <zdc> student: 哪个啊
[06:29] <Meg> ok
[06:29] <student> 現在的聊天室啊
[06:29] <Coded1> moetunes, i actually just found the util "scantv" and right now its going through some channels looks like progress :)
[06:29] <Meg> just grasping at straws
[06:29] <collosi> looks like this channel just became #ubuntu-cn
[06:29] <moetunes> Coded1:  I use me-tv which uses the xine libs and it tells the signal strength recieved for each channel
[06:29] <zdc> student:ubuntu啊
[06:29] <student> hey！everybody
[06:29] <moetunes> Coded1:  great!
[06:30] <kwtm> student: no, this is NOT a chat channel.  Please go to a different 聊天室 if you just want to 聊天.  Not only do people not understand you here, some people don't even have tghe Chinese font installed.
[06:30] <HaxXxoR> hey collosi
[06:30] <student> sorry
[06:30] <kwtm> I'd try to help if you had a question about Ubuntu, but please obey the rules.
[06:30] <Coded1> moetunes, are you using me-tv to watch OTA broadcasts or regular cable tv?
[06:30] <HaxXxoR> i got the package to download but nothing shows up on firefox any ideas
[06:30] <glebihan> zedeee: you'll have to use a software to burn the iso to the cd, do not put directly the iso file on the disc
[06:30] <collosi> HaxXxoR:  yes
[06:31] <glebihan> zedeee: however I think that Windows should handle this
[06:31] <collosi> HaxXxoR:  sorry I don't use anything that requires silverlight
[06:31] <zedeee> wat software? is there a complete tutorial somewher
[06:31] <moetunes> Coded1:  terrestrial tv
[06:31] <HaxXxoR> not a netflix fan huh xD
[06:31] <Coded1> moetunes, cool thats with an antenna?
[06:31] <moetunes> Coded1:  yep
[06:32] <collosi> HaxXxoR:  you might want to install the moonlight-plugin-core package too, might help
[06:32] <glebihan> zedeee: here's one solution : http://www.petri.co.il/how_to_write_iso_files_to_cd.htm
[06:32] <student> I am a Taiwan people I very few communicate with the American The hope can penetrate this chatroom Let me know everybody
[06:33] <HaxXxoR> i installed the moonlight-plugin-mozilla and that also install the core
[06:33] <HaxXxoR> just dont know after that if there is an executable or something that im missing to make firefox realise that i have it on the pc
[06:33] <student> Asks everybody very much to advise
[06:33] <collosi> HaxXxoR:  did you restart firefox?
[06:33] <HaxXxoR> yeah a few times its not showing up in the plugins either
[06:34] <HaxXxoR> all i get is netflix telling me that my os isnt supported
[06:34] <moetunes> it's a windows app afaik
[06:34] <AbhiJit> student, #ubuntu-offtopic for general chit chatting
[06:35] <draugr_hrafn> hello
[06:35] <collosi> HaxXxoR:  take a look here http://blog.bodhizazen.net/linux/how-to-moonlight/
[06:36] <HaxXxoR> i just found a moonligh 3 on the dev page and installed it through the website it self and it shows up in the plug in list and on the addon list but still no go on netflix lol
[06:37] <glebihan> HaxXxoR: it looks like netflix does not work on ubuntu : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1510543
[06:37] <omicron_> Hey guys, wonder if anyone can help? I'm trying to connect to my wifi via the terminal, but whenever I go to do so, all I get is "No DHCPOFFERS received -- No working leases in persistent databases - sleeping."
[06:37] <HaxXxoR> ive seen it work that is whats pissing me off
[06:37] <draugr_hrafn> hey I'm having some trouble with my wife's computer...
[06:37] <draugr_hrafn> dell inspiron mini 10
[06:37] <draugr_hrafn> ubuntu 9.04 moblin
[06:38] <omicron_> Wifi card is a BCM4312 (rev 1) if that helps; drivers should be up to date as I fetched them via HWdrivers.
[06:38] <glebihan> HaxXxoR: was it using wine or a virtual machine maybe ?
[06:38] <kwtm> omicron_: did you set up iwconfig with right essid/pword etc.?
[06:38] <HaxXxoR> no he just stared up firefox and went to the site and away it went
[06:39] <collosi> HaxXxoR:  yeah I don't think it works as glebihan stated
[06:39] <HaxXxoR> i can get it to work on virtual box but its choppy as hell
[06:39] <omicron_> Yes I did kwtm, via WEP.
[06:39] <omicron_> ( following this guide FYI http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188)
[06:39] <zedeee> has any one heard about ubuntu crashing after a while wen installed thru wubi?
[06:39] <HaxXxoR> damn thats annoying i hate when something doesnt go right lol
[06:40] <kwtm> omicron_: And you know router is not blocking (eg mac address filter, etc.)? Does it work under other circumstances, eg. gui, dual-boot win, etc.?
[06:40] <moetunes> HaxXxoR:  seems you need   boxee for it
[06:40] <HaxXxoR> ill try a few things and see if it works
[06:40] <HaxXxoR> anyone recommend any applications for a new person to ubuntu?
[06:41] <omicron_> kwtm: Nope, it's not blocking it. It works fine in X, I'm just trying to get it to work from shell-only (ie. before X is started)
[06:41] <kwtm> zedeee: what, we're ignoring allthe times it crashes after a while when installed any other way? :)
[06:41] <Sanctusorium> Is it possible to virtually run the Wubi install from inside Windows 7?
[06:41] <KeRneL> {YunxBOT}v17
[06:42] <kwtm> omicron_: regrettably, i can probably hewlp u since i have experience with this, but my toddler is not letting me type
[06:42] <kwtm> omicron_: regrettably, i can probably hewlp u since i have experience with this, but my toddler is not letting me type (im doing this onehanded)
[06:42] <ActionParsnip> Sanctusorium: well the wubi "disk" is just a file like a vm. I'd ask in #vbox ,they may know a thing or 3
[06:42] <kwtm> omicron_: ok, how about: let it connect with x, checj iwconfig settings, then do sudo dhclient in x terminal?
[06:43] <Sanctusorium> ActionParsnip: Okie, thank you!
[06:43] <omicron_> kwtm: I'll start x now and give that a go
[06:44] <kwtm> omicron_: i am currently having nedtwork probs, too, so hopefully u & i are not having same problem.  I can't get mine to connect in x
[06:44] <ActionParsnip> Sanctusorium: you aren't crazy though. A few online have asked the same thing (quick bingsearch)
[06:44] <kwtm> what's bingsearch? looking for cosby?
 zedeee: what, we're ignoring allthe times it crashes after a while when installed any other way? :)...........i dint get u
[06:45] <ActionParsnip> Sanctusorium: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1232698
[06:45] <Sanctusorium> ActionParsnip: Yeah, I've seen some threads but I never get a straight answer :(
[06:45] <simplexio> omicron_: and remember to disable networkmanager on X startup and add double check that net is in enabled on boot
[06:45] <ActionParsnip> kwtm: www.bing.com ?
[06:45] <kwtm> zedeee: my attempt at a joke.  I'm saying, are you sure that the fact that it's installed by wubi is relevant?
[06:46] <ActionParsnip> kwtm: I call it a bingsearch
[06:46] <kwtm> oh you can search for bings via www.bing.com?
[06:46] <Sanctusorium> ActionParsnip: Oooh, purdy.  I'll read that
[06:46] <zedeee> i read about ubuntu crashing and not performing good enuff, and someone mentioned tht wen you install it thru and within windows thn it is likely to cause errors after a while
[06:46] <ActionParsnip> kwtm: sure why not :)
[06:47] <kwtm> ActionParsnip: went to web site.  looks like google.  probably just gforwards searches to googled.
[06:47] <snuxoll> lhavelund: halp
[06:47] <snuxoll> lhavelund: I can't login to mumble :(
[06:47] <kwtm> s/oogled/oogle/
[06:47] <kwtm> s/gfor/for/
[06:47] <ActionParsnip> zedeee: what you are descibing is wubi. The install will succumb to the shortcomings of fragmentation
[06:48] <omicron_> simplexio: not to sound stupid or anything, but how can I do that?
[06:48] <ActionParsnip> kwtm: bing is microsoft's websearch tool, and no it doesn't send anything to google
[06:48] <kwtm> microsoft has a websearch tool now?
[06:48] <Krishnandu> zedeee: Ya wubi installation has many problems. But that can't describe Ubuntu coz it's not build to run within windows
[06:49] <ActionParsnip> kwtm: its been around a while now
[06:49] <Sanctusorium> kwtm: Yep.  Google has gotten ideas for it too.
[06:49] <Sanctusorium> *form
[06:49] <kwtm> they still haven't learned after failing at search and zune and tablet comp and pocketpc an d ... ??
[06:49] <zedeee> ActionParsnip: so the only solution is to use live cd and then install it thru tht?
[06:49] <Sanctusorium> kwtm: BIng is actually doing very well if I understand correctly
[06:49] <ActionParsnip> zedeee: its good as a uick try before you buy sort of deal but as a long term solution its not very good
[06:49] <simplexio> omicron_: attlest on older ubuntu version , update-rc.d application remove , and update-rc.d app defaults i think
[06:50] <Krishnandu> zedeee: Well if you want to be in the safe side then proper installation is must
[06:50] <ActionParsnip> zedeee: sure, if you use win7 you can use its own tool to resize the windows partition and make room for ubuntu
 and that proper installation comprises wat?
[06:50] <draugr_hrafn> thanks for your help guys
[06:50] <kwtm> simplexio: aha! i now identify you as the person most liklely to help me with my networking problem
[06:50] <Krishnandu> zedeee: Installation from Live CD
 my harddrive is already partitioned into 4...and i have win xp
[06:50] <ActionParsnip> zedeee: make sure your backups are sufficiently recent BEFORE starting all this in case of catastrophe
[06:51] <ActionParsnip> zedeee: the ubuntu installer can resize ntfs. Win7 just does a better job
 create backups within xp? and how to do tht?
[06:51] <Krishnandu> zedeee: Just create some free space.....10GB will do. Recommended is 20GB
[06:51] <kwtm> simplexio: what is the most likely software on lucid that will kep cutting off my ethernet connection a few minutes after successfully connect manually via sudo dhclient?
[06:51] <ActionParsnip> zedeee: backup you user data?
[06:52] <Krishnandu> zedeee: ActionParsnip means take backup of all your imp datas
[06:52] <omicron_> I think it's a problem with the STA drivers.
[06:52] <zedeee> ok...i thought he meant creating a restore point or somthing
[06:52] <omicron_> I can get a list of local networks with iwlist, but even in X now I can't connect to a network (unsecured or otherwise)
[06:52] <ActionParsnip> kwtm: when it drops, run: dmesg | tail ,see what's going on
[06:53] <tiox> We really need a plan of action for dysfunctional machines.,
[06:53] <ActionParsnip> omicron_: is your wireless device wlan0?
[06:53] <simplexio> kwtm: my best quess is networkmanager witch tries to reconfigure interface
[06:53] <omicron_> ActionParsnip: nope, eth1
[06:53] <q99125> Need some help creating and using a tar command to make an exact copy of / and /home partitions. I've googled and read the man page which leaves me uncertain. Anyone here understand tar fully?
[06:53] <freetown2> q99125: what about dump?
[06:53] <ActionParsnip> omicron_: install wicd ,it can be told which device to use. Afaik network-manager expects wlan0
[06:54] <simplexio> kwtm: also dmesg and cat /var/log/messages syslog etc may give some useful info
[06:54] <ypx032> 哪个国家的
[06:54] <ActionParsnip> omicron_: so you can tell it to use eth1
[06:54] <freetown2> q99125: what do you want backed up?
[06:54] <moetunes> !cn | ypx032
[06:54] <freetown2> q99125: attributes and other stuff
[06:54] <omicron_> ActionParsnip: Hm, well, I can see the local networks and everything, and it tries to connect, it just doesn't succeed. This is the same in X and with iwlist. I'll give wicd a try though
[06:55] <ActionParsnip> q99125: if you want an image then you can use partimage ,it will compress the data too if you tell it. Install itin livecd and run it. You also use the same tool to restore
[06:55] <ActionParsnip> omicron_: wicd is sweet. Alsodisable ipv6 if you don't use it. I've seen this help too
[06:56] <q99125> freetown2: I have a drive with WinXp and Linux and want to backup / and /home, repartition the drive to 3 partitions and restore / and /home exactly as they are now. I want to be sure owner and permissions are retained exactly as they are now.
[06:56] <ypx032> meiyouzhongwen
[06:57] <omicron_> ActionParsnip: Cool, I'll do that and get back to you. Fingers crossed
[06:57] <Knight231> Hello , when i use right click on flash element on Mozilla its crash ? any idea ?
[06:57] <ypx032> how can i copy the drie to wnixp
[06:57] <q99125> ActionParsnip: I've looked into a number of methods and tar appeared to be the least complicated.
[06:58] <ActionParsnip> Knight231: log a bug. Also make sure you don't have any swfdec or gnash packages installed
[06:58] <collosi> q99125:  what ActionParsnip said is alot easier, use partimage
[06:58] <ActionParsnip> q99125: that's cool
[06:58] <freetown2> q99125: how about just shrinking your partitions then?
[06:58] <simplexio> q99125: man tar , and you probably dont need backup / if you havent installed alot stuff from outside package manager
[06:59] <q99125> I'd like to stay with ta
[07:02] <freetown2> q99125: tar might be fine for /home but for /....
[07:04] <bars0> Hi all! Simple question: how to check how old is the system (when it was installed)?
[07:06] <root_ninja> bars0, sudo head -c 15 /var/log/installer/syslog;echo
[07:06] <root_ninja> http://lxtips.posterous.com/find-your-ubuntu-installation-date-on-the-cli
[07:06] <moetunes> or ls -l /
[07:07] <Gene_> hello
[07:07] <ActionParsnip> Hi Gene_
[07:07] <Gene_> how do I get apt-get to run a package configuration script after re-installing a previously uninstalled package?
[07:07] <Gene_> like the one that comes with roundcube for example
[07:08] <Gene_> because the actual package doesn't actually come with the database schema
[07:08] <bars0> root_ninja: thank you
[07:08] <ActionParsnip> Gene_: sudo dpkg-reconfigure package (my guess)
[07:08] <Gene_> ah! thank you
[07:08] <Gene_> no, that didn't do anything
[07:08] <ActionParsnip> Bah
[07:10] <omicron_> bugger.
[07:10] <omicron_> this still isn't working
[07:10] <peppis> Morn
[07:10] <moetunes> ing
[07:10] <omicron_> has broken
[07:10] <glebihan> Gene_: well that is the command, if it didn't do anything, it's probably that there wasn't anything to do
[07:11] <Gene_> glebihan, i did apt-get install roundcube, after which I got a blue screen saying I needed to setup a database
[07:11] <omicron_> ag
[07:11] <omicron_> acton
[07:11] <Gene_> two screens later it said I don't have MySQL installed
[07:11] <Gene_> I aborted the script
[07:11] <omicron_> ActionParsnip: How can I disable the default network manager in favor of wicd?
[07:12] <Gene_> installed mysql-server, and re-installed roundcube
[07:12] <Gene_> but no database configuration wizard!
[07:12] <q99125> I would like to stay with tar, and the drive has many partitions I would like to reduce to just 3.
[07:12] <glebihan> Gene_: try purging roundcube and reinstalling it
[07:13] <freetown2> q99125: be my guest. don't forget to pass --one-file-system when tarring up /
[07:13] <q99125> Is there a tar IRC channel?
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> Gene_: there are postinst scripts on your partition for each package. I think they are in /var/lib/dpkg/info you could rerun the postinst file for your package from there (never done that before persoanlly)
[07:14] <ActionParsnip> q99125: could try in #bash
[07:14] <Krishnandu> Why is Unix reffered as *nix ??
[07:14] <q99125> ActionParsnip: Okay, and thanks.
[07:14] <glebihan> ActionParsnip, Gene_ : that won't work, postinst scripts are run on every installation anyway
[07:15] <ActionParsnip> Krishnandu: as that also includes other unix based OSes whose name ends in 'nix'
[07:15] <Gene_> yeah, purging didn't work
[07:15] <Gene_> ah fark - easier to just go and fetch the schema from roundcube.org
[07:15] <Krishnandu> ActionParsnip: Like..?? Can you name some eg. OS..??
[07:16] <Gene_> besides 0.4.2 is out, and 10.04 only provides 0.3
[07:16] <ActionParsnip> Krishnandu: they will all be linux based so are technically the same OSbui believe it also includes bsd
[07:16] <Krishnandu> ActionParsnip: Hmm
[07:17] <ActionParsnip> Krishnandu: that's all I know. Its just an accepted method of encompassing unix, bsd and linux (not sure about beos though)
[07:18] <Krishnandu> ActionParsnip: Okies..!! Thnx 4 that...else I'll google it out
[07:18] <glebihan> Gene_: try "sudo dpkg-preconfigure roundcube"
[07:19] <omicron_> I'm running Xubuntu; how can I disable the default network manager?
[07:19] <Gene_> nothing
[07:20] <Gene_> already downloaded the tarball
[07:20] <Krishnandu> omicron_: #xubuntu
[07:20] <Seito> hi everyone! I have a problem with bluetooth service. it doesn't start on boot. when I do dpkg-reconfigure bluez the service starts until next reboot. where to dig?
[07:21] <glebihan> Gene_: uninstall the package, and run "sudo apt-get autoremove", it will propose you to deconfigure, then on reinstallation, you should be able to reconfigure
[07:21] <Seito> the system: Lucid x86-64
[07:21] <Gene_> it's weird how the original package was built though - half directories and files installed in /var/lib/roundcube the other half in /usr/share/roundcube, and the missing files in the respective folders symlinked between each other
[07:21] <ActionParsnip> omicron_: sudo service network-manager stop
[07:21] <omicron_> ActionParsnip: \o/ thanks
[07:21] <ActionParsnip> !boot | Seito
[07:22] <freetown2> Gene_: packaging guidelines
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> !startup | Seito

[07:22] <shivraj123> gracias
[07:22] <Gene_> freetown2, I initially thought somebody was just being funny ^_^
[07:22] <ActionParsnip> shivraj123: cerien
[07:23] <Seito> ubottu, doesn't help either
[07:23] <Gene_> and no disrespect to your, you know, packager
[07:23] <Seito> ActionParsnip, doesn't help either
[07:23] <ActionParsnip> Seito: well, it does. You cancheck your startup scripts and items loading at login using those factoids
[07:23] <Seito> I've found, that the service starts through udev rules
[07:23] <Seito> but!
[07:24] <Seito> first of all, the rule is present in /etc/udev/rules.d/97-bluetooth.rule where in fact only one line
[07:24] <ActionParsnip> Seito: if you look in system -> prefs -> startup items ,is bluetooth listed there? If you install bum can you re-enable it there?
[07:25] <seidos> Seito, cool nick!
[07:25] <Seito> ActionParsnip, there only blueman here
[07:25] <Seito> seidos, thnx :)
[07:25] <ActionParsnip> Seito: if you add the command in rc.local it can also be made to run there
[07:26] <Seito> ActionParsnip, also tried with no luck. I added the command to rc.local like sudo service bluetooth start without any success after all
[07:26] <shivraj123> am not able to add backtrack tools to my ubuntu, help
[07:26] <Krishnandu> #ubuntu+1
[07:26] <ActionParsnip> Seito: no need for sudo. Stuff in rc.local runs as root
[07:27] <Seito> ActionParsnip, I even tried to reinstall those packages related to bluetooth (bluez, bluetooth, blueman) hoping that dpkg will recreate all needed configs
[07:27] <ActionParsnip> Seito: it also needs addingabove the exit 0 ,line
[07:27] <Seito> ActionParsnip, yes, it's already there
[07:27] <Seito> o.k., I
[07:28] <Seito> *I'll try without sudo
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> Seito: ?
[07:28] <ActionParsnip> Seito: i'd log a bug too
[07:28] <Seito> ActionParsnip, can you tell me please how to log it?
[07:29] <ActionParsnip> Seito: ubuntu-bug bluetooth ,or whatever package you feel is affected
[07:30] <Seito> ActionParsnip, also, can you tell me where to look for the log (if any) which bluetooth service writes?
[07:30] <ActionParsnip> Seito: /var/log would be my first place to look
[07:32] <Seito> oh, :) thnx. ok, I'll try with rc.local, but it's still strange for me why it doesn't wish to start when the systems boots.
[07:33] <Seito> bb
[07:33] <Seito> thanks a lot!

[07:45] <rfreiberger> hello, anyone have a tutorial setting up Conky?
[07:46] <nikolam> Bah, how do I change resolution without GUI panels? I am on Xfce and stupid Urbanterror game using MESA rendering, stayed on some low in-game full screen resolution , after I hit alt-tab
[07:47] <nikolam> Isn't there some ctrl+Alt+something X server resolution change shortcut
[07:47] <Eryn_1983_FL> lol
[07:47] <nikolam> Yes and now I can not get program menu unless I kill X , etc
[07:48] <nikolam> Ahh I get it, Xfce now gives full applications menu on right click. that's it. ;)
[07:49] <omicron_> Which repo is bitchx in these days?
[07:49] <tarzeau> just use irssi?
[07:50] <uLinux> xchat for gui irssi for cli :)
[07:51] <tarzeau> i prefer cli, since you can run it in gnu screen
[07:52] <tarzeau> will ubuntu do a release on 11.11.11 too?
[07:53] <uLinux> maybe :p
[07:53] <nikolam> tarzeau, I understand there is also some kind of screen-ish X server that stays independent with X apps and connects to real X server if wanted.
[07:53] <tarzeau> nikolam: is there? show me where?
[07:54] <nikolam> just a sec I think I have seen some wikipedia artilce on it once, did not have time to test yet
[07:57] <fuqinwei> 大家好
[07:58] <Loshki> nikolam: tarzeau: I'm not sure what a 'screen-ish X server' looks like, but I know that vncserver can run an X server in the background that's a good place to park long-running X11 applications, if that's what you mean...
[07:58] <tarzeau> Loshki: no, i'm perfectly happy with gnu screen. and i don't like xchat
[07:59] <napster> Where is the configuration file for screenshot program in ubuntu-dektop?
[07:59] <tarzeau> napster: i use scrot for screenshots
[07:59] <ljsoftnet> hello people
[08:00] <Loshki> tarzeau: I like erc in emacs myself...
[08:00] <napster> tarzeau: Nice. I try to use the budled program itself
[08:00] <nikolam> Loshki, yes, something like that
[08:01] <moetunes> I like ffmpeg for screenshots
[08:01] <nikolam> I dream of somethink like that as default behavior, of starting all apps on headless X server that would connect to real one, when needed, therefore screen-like X
[08:02] <napster> Do anyone know where is the configuration file for screenshot program in ubuntu-dektop?
[08:02] <tarzeau> napster: it's a gnome application right?
[08:02] <moetunes> napster:  maybe in gconf
[08:02] <tarzeau> napster: it must be either in .local/gnome or so, or .gnome or .gconf or so
[08:02] <napster> tarzeau: yes
[08:02] <Eryn_1983_FL> hi
[08:02] <napster> moetunes: let me see
[08:02] <Eryn_1983_FL> hi
[08:02] <Eryn_1983_FL> hi
[08:02] <FloodBot4> Eryn_1983_FL: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:02] <napster> tarzeau: Ok, let me try
[08:04] <Eryn_1983_FL> sorry
[08:04] <Eryn_1983_FL> my wifi  messed up
[08:04] <Loshki> nikolam: I know people who do that: they just run vncviewer wherever they are back to the server...
[08:06] <moetunes> nikolam:  plan9 does that
[08:07] <babtux> hi
[08:07] <thter> hi
[08:08] <andriy> hello everyone
[08:08] <babtux> i installed apt-get install grub2-splashimages but now how can i active pic on my grub menu?
[08:08] <andriy> anyone know why i can see the hard drive wwhen its connected via external hdd enclosure, but not when it is connected internally/
[08:08] <thter> could anyone tell me please: when you install with FDE (Full Disk Encryption), does it install the kernel to /boot?
[08:09] <AbhiJit> !grub2 | babtux its expalined here
[08:09] <moetunes> andriy:  does it show in   fdisk -l   ?
[08:09] <andriy> moetunes, yes
[08:10] <moetunes> andriy:  you prob have to mount it then
[08:10] <andriy> but it doesn't show in the file system ;(
[08:10] <andriy> how do i do that (can't format it)
[08:10] <moetunes> andriy:  if there is no fstab entry for it it won't be in the filesystem unless you mount it
[08:11] <moetunes> andriy:  make a dir in /media or /mnt for it first
[08:11] <andriy> moetunes, im new to linux, how do i mount it/
[08:12] <thter> could anyone tell me please: when you install Ubuntu with FDE (Full Disk Encryption), does it install the kernel to /boot?
[08:12] <andriy> moetunes, oh, i tried that, but it told me that i didn't specify the file system
[08:13] <moetunes> andriy:  what is the file system on it?
[08:13] <andriy> ntfs
[08:13] <moetunes> andriy:  that should mount fine without being told what fs it is
[08:14] <moetunes> andriy:  have you made a dir to mount it to?
[08:14] <andriy> moetunes, yes, i did
[08:15] <logan_wolf> hi all
[08:15] <andriy> here are the steps i did 'mkdir /media/store' then chmod 777 /media/store' then mount /dev/hdb media/store' and thats when i get the error
[08:15] <moetunes> andriy: what does fdisk call the partitions on the drive ? - sdb1 or similar?
[08:16] <moetunes> andriy:  you need sudo for mount
[08:16] <andriy> moetunes, hmm, don't remember if i typed sudo.. brb
[08:16] <moetunes> andriy:  and you mount partitions not drives so hdb1
[08:16] <andriy> moetunes, oh... thanks
[08:16] <moetunes> :]
[08:20] <Andyman> If I want to bring an interface up at boot, but not give it an IP address, what is the best way to specify that in /etc/network/interfaces?
[08:21] <Jordan_U> babtux: I'd actually use a png file that you like rather than the low quality images in the grub2-splashimages package.
[08:22] <moetunes> Andyman:  afaik a network interface needs an ip address - that's it purpose in life
[08:23] <Andyman> moetunes: It depends how you want to use it. I want to bridge it and only assign it an address in the vm that it's assigned to. So not in the host system.
[08:23] <babtux> Jordan_U: can you send me your pic set for grub?
[08:23] <ubuntu_> hi, a little question?
[08:23] <Andyman> moetunes: besides that use, there are plenty of other uses for a nic without an IP address.
[08:24] <moetunes> Andyman:  I don't know anything about bridging - seen some howtos on the net tho
[08:24] <Krishnandu> ubuntu_: Yes??
[08:24] <ubuntu_> how to install a grub in a 100mb partion for windows?
[08:24] <Andyman> moetunes: The bridging works fine, I just want to bring it up at boot time without an IP address.
[08:25] <moetunes> Andyman:  no point in asking me then - see the above response I gave
[08:25] <Krishnandu> ubuntu_: I didn't got your query. But it seems that you are asking about this : https://help.ubuntu.com/.../RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[08:26] <Krishnandu> ubuntu_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[08:26] <ubuntu_> ty
[08:26] <Krishnandu> ubuntu_: Wells..!! :)
[08:26] <Jordan_U> babtux: Literally any png (or jpeg) will do. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Featured_pictures is a good place to start, or any set of Desktop backgrounds. Just be sure that the text of the menu will be visable over the background.
[08:27] <ubuntu_> is necessaty an ubuntu installed?
[08:27] <Krishnandu> ubuntu_: Yes...what do you want...??
[08:27] <ubuntu_> I mean, grub and windows only
[08:28] <Krishnandu> ubuntu_: Use window's default bootloader for only Windows, why would you install GRUB for that..??
[08:28] <ubuntu_> because, maybe I want to install maverick
[08:29] <ubuntu_> actually I have karmic
[08:29] <Krishnandu> ubuntu_: Then just install Maverick, it'll install GRUB for you
[08:29] <sabgenton> my firewall box stops NATing   on reboot and I can't get it going again
[08:29] <ubuntu_> but is rc?
[08:29] <ubuntu_> still
[08:29] <sabgenton> I am using wifi for the wan (wlan0)  eth0 for lan
[08:30] <sabgenton> mabye wifi is bugey for NAT
[08:30] <Krishnandu> ubuntu_: What is your query...?? What do you want..?? You are saying different things......Use windows default bootloader for windows, and if you want to install maverick don't bother, grub will be automatically installed
[08:31] <ubuntu_> ok thks
[08:31] <Krishnandu> ubuntu_: If you have Karmic now, GRUB is already there...what else do you want..??
[08:31] <sabgenton> using ath5k driver
[08:31] <ubuntu_> ;)

[08:54] <sameh> What is the best fax prog in ubuntu?
[08:55] <ikonia> sameh: hylafax has been around for a while and always stable
[08:56] <JackStoner> does anyone use irssi???
[08:56] <iflema> anygivenname icant remember.... but some home routers are dyndns capable... that way once the router is up so is the dyndns address
[08:57] <sameh> Ikonia: thanks. Are you using it?
[08:57] <Eryn_1983_FL> ok i am confused my rosewill usb  device is  werid
[08:57] <Eryn_1983_FL> it  sees all these  ap and i cant connect to them whats  going on is the  drive  screwed up?
[08:57] <ikonia> sameh: not at the moment, I have in the past though
[08:59] <anygivenname> iflema: I got the ddcleint for linux & someone here helped me to install it on the machine & run a command which have started it.....now I just need a command that would show its status
[08:59] <ikonia> anygivenname: have you read the man page or documentation on it ?
[09:00] <anygivenname> i read but can't find anything on the terminal commands
[09:00] <iflema> anygivenname it show up in syslog i think it is.. one of the logs :) /var/log/syslog
[09:00] <ikonia> anygivenname: ok, so do you know the command you want even exists ?
[09:01] <iflema> anygivenname if/when it started is all.....
[09:01] <anygivenname> it does cause the i ran it last time when someone told me about it
[09:02] <anygivenname> but i forogt it cause i was only following the steps he advised
[09:02] <sda1986> script problem: I made a script, it calls 3more little script, but when I call it with a shortcut key it's pretty slow, it show me the "WAIT" cursor for some second, if I launch it from the terminal it's faster. I put the code in 3 script because i wanted a flexible program, and because so i call the other script with "gksudo"
[09:02] <sda1986> how can I fix it?
[09:02] <anygivenname> it was sudo......
[09:03] <iflema> anygivenname sudo ddclient -daemon=0 -debug -vebrose -noquiet
[09:03] <ikonia> sda1986: the shortcut has to launch a shell, then run the scripts, from the command line, you already have the shell running
[09:04] <iflema> anygivenname no, this one sudo /etc/init.d/ddclient status
[09:04] <sda1986> i have to launch like that? "bash name.sh"
[09:04] <sda1986> ??
[09:05] <ikonia> sda1986: no, I'm just explaining why you found it a little slower from the short cut
[09:06] <sda1986> oh,  there is a way to do it faster? the truth is i don't care about the 3second because it's a background work, i only don't want see the wait cursor!
[09:06] <ikonia> sda1986: then you need to get a grip, the wait cursor is while the shell is being launched
[09:06] <anygivenname> iflema: thanks....it is the right command
[09:07] <mfaroukg> ikonia: hi
[09:07] <ikonia> mfaroukg: yes ?
[09:07] <anygivenname> it showed running although it missed few hours back
[09:07] <sda1986> ikonia, what do you mean? sorry
[09:07] <mfaroukg> ikonia: I just installed hylafax and I don't know where can I open it
[09:07] <ikonia> mfaroukg: have you read any documentation on it
[09:08] <ikonia> sda1986: the wait cursor is never going to go away
[09:08] <histo> mfaroukg: its a console app
[09:08] <mfaroukg> ikonia: I read it faster, can you tell me where to open it? or does it have interface?
[09:08] <ikonia> mfaroukg: no, read the documentation, you should not be trying to set something like hylafax up without reading the documetnation
[09:08] <histo> mfaroukg: its a server that just runs a daemon and answers incoming faxes and outputs to file or whereever you want
[09:08] <sda1986> ok, so second question, can i include other script inside a script? like a library inside a C program?
[09:09] <ikonia> sda1986: sure
[09:09] <ikonia> sda1986: the guys in #bash are the best place to help with scripting
[09:09] <wkimberly`> sdfsdf
[09:09] <sda1986> thanks!
[09:09] <anygivenname> is there a way to backup all the settings I have done on Ubuntu & restore them on a new PC I am getting ?
[09:09] <izua> hey, how do i make the keyboard layout changes permanent? i added the romanian layout, and after reboot it switches to usa. i removed the usa keyboard, after reboot the romanian one is gone and the usa one is back. i only need the romanian layout.
[09:09] <sda1986> ikonia, have a nice morning, afternoon, evening, night (depends where are you from!) really thanks!
[09:10] <ikonia> !close > anygivenname
[09:10] <mfaroukg> ikonia: is there fax program with friendly interface?
[09:10] <ikonia> mfaroukg: hylafax is very friendly, if you take 30 minutes to read the doucumentation
[09:10] <anygivenname> what's close ?
[09:11] <rww> !clone | anygivenname
[09:11] <ikonia> anygivenname: sorry, typo
[09:11] <ikonia> !clone > anygivenname
[09:11] <ikonia> anygivenname: check the pm from ubottu
[09:11] <rww> not that it deals with settings, but still
[09:13] <anygivenname> what would be'to the other machine' ?
[09:13] <ikonia> anygivenname: the target machine you want to clone to
[09:13] <anygivenname> ah...got it
[09:13] <anygivenname> sorry
[09:14] <anygivenname> u mean this command is gonna create a file called my packages
[09:14] <anygivenname> then i move it & run a command on it
[09:14] <anygivenname> this will take the settings of all apps i installed or not ?
[09:15] <ikonia> anygivenname: no, you need to manually back them up, they are in /home and /etc
[09:15] <ikonia> anygivenname: you may want to consider copying the file systems over then just re-applying grub2
[09:15] <anygivenname> how do I backup ?
[09:16] <ikonia> anygivenname: copying what you need elsewhere = backup
[09:16] <Jordan_U> anygivenname: Can you just stick your current HD in the new computer?
[09:17] <ikonia> ah, a better idea
[09:17] <anygivenname> probably copy .conf files
[09:18] <anygivenname> this HD is small...i am getting a bigger one
[09:18] <tidao> hi
[09:19] <Jordan_U> anygivenname: You can copy an image of the old drive to the newer one, then resize the partition to use all available space.
[09:19] <AbhiJit> ikonia, i insatll hylafax. but where it goes? cant find it
[09:19] <tidao> no
[09:19] <ikonia> AbhiJit:
[09:19] <ikonia> AbhiJit: how did you install it ?
[09:19] <anygivenname> how to copy an image ?
[09:19] <ikonia> tidao: no ?
[09:19] <glebihan> anygivenname: what exactly do you want to backup ? only user configuration, all system configuration, or also installed packages ?
[09:19] <AbhiJit> ikonia, sudo apt-get insatll hylafax-client
[09:19] <tidao> heihei
[09:20] <Jordan_U> anygivenname: How comfortable are you with the terminal?
[09:20] <ikonia> AbhiJit: so it should be somewhere in /usr/bin I believe
[09:20] <anygivenname> settings of installed packages
[09:20] <AbhiJit> ikonia, ok
[09:20] <AbhiJit> hylafax: /etc/hylafax /usr/lib/hylafax /usr/lib64/hylafax /usr/share/hylafax ikonia
[09:20] <tidao> yi qun bai cai
[09:21] <Guest56075> hi all
[09:21] <ikonia> tidao: please stop that
[09:21] <ikonia> AbhiJit: why are you showing me that ?
[09:21] <ikonia> tidao: this channel is english language only
[09:21] <AbhiJit> ikonia, because it is not runnig. when i type hylafax in termianl it says command not found
[09:21] <anygivenname> Jordan_U: I am zero in terminal
[09:21] <Guest56075> anyone using  Ubuntu as a server
[09:21] <ikonia> anygivenname: did you look in /usr/bin ?
[09:21] <tensorpudding> Guest56075: no one
[09:21] <ikonia> Guest56075: yes, why
[09:21] <AbhiJit> Guest56075, all in #ubuntu-server
[09:22] <Guest56075> I like it as desktop
[09:22] <ikonia> Guest56075: ok ?
[09:22] <tidao> console
[09:23] <ikonia> tidao: what do you actually want ?
[09:23] <glebihan> AbhiJit: run "hylafax-client"
[09:24] <anygivenname> if I copy all the HD to a new one...would it work ?
[09:24] <ikonia> anygivenname: yes, but you'll need to re-install grub
[09:24] <histo> !ch > tidao
[09:24] <glebihan> AbhiJit: no wait, see "man hylafax-client" for available commands
[09:24] <histo> tidao: ctrl+alt+F1 through F6
[09:24] <AbhiJit> glebihan, thanks!
[09:24] <anygivenname> how do I re-install grub ?
[09:25] <ikonia> !grub2> anygivenname
[09:25] <glebihan> AbhiJit: you're welcome
[09:25] <anygivenname> ah...now I remeber grub....ok
[09:31] <FreaZor> hi.. im using ubuntu in persistant mode on my usb stick. i can connect to my wlan and use it but after a few times restarting ubuntu the wlan still connects but doesnt work anymore (no connection) .. could anyone help me with this problem ?
[09:33] <glebihan> FreaZor: could you pastebin the output of 'iwconfig" ?
[09:36] <FreaZor> glebihan: should I paste it in here?
[09:36] <glebihan> FreaZor: no use pastebin
[09:36] <glebihan> !paste | FreaZor
[09:37] <FreaZor> http://paste.ubuntu.com/508617/
[09:38] <glebihan> FreaZor: weird, looks like it's connected
[09:39] <glebihan> FreaZor: the signal power is low though
[09:39] <FreaZor> glebihan: at the moment it is connected because i reinstalled ubuntu on my stick
[09:40] <glebihan> FreaZor: oh ok
[09:40] <FreaZor> glebihan: but when it didnt work it looked the same.
[09:41] <FreaZor> I am afraid that this problem happens again
[09:41] <glebihan> FreaZor: really ? I can't see why it wouldn't work then...
[09:42] <teamcoltra> When I reinstall, if I make a special partition for /usr will that allow me to keep the programs I install if I ever have to do a reinstall?
[09:42] <teamcoltra> (do a future reinstall*)
[09:42] <glebihan> teamcoltra: that's not the good way to do this, you'll be missing configuration files
[09:42] <glebihan> !clone | teamcoltra
[09:43] <FreaZor> glebihan: maybe it happened because i didnt shut it down right ?
[09:43] <noisewaterphdmac> anyone on here from Canada?
[09:43] <FreaZor> i justed pressed the off button for 8secs
[09:43] <teamcoltra> glebihan, perfect I was actually writing that out as a second question.. if I could list what I have installed
[09:43] <MegaHerz> Hi all. What is the name of Ubuntu search tool which behaves like OS X Finder?
[09:43] <glebihan> FreaZor: I don't think this should matter
[09:43] <teamcoltra> FreaZor, does the person need to be IN Canada or just a fellow Canadian?
[09:43] <AbhiJit> noisewaterphdmac, #ubuntu-ca
[09:44] <teamcoltra> lol err wrong person anyway
[09:44] <noisewaterphdmac> im not even canadian, just needing to test some geo located stuff, ill hit -ca, thanks
[09:44] <FreaZor> heh
[09:45] <FreaZor> glebihan: what should I do if this problem happens again ? I cannot help myself without a internet connection
[09:45] <noisewaterphdmac> FreaZor: you got a smart phone you can tether with?
[09:46] <FreaZor> no :(
[09:46] <glebihan> FreaZor: well I'm not sure, maybe try to shut down and restart the wlan connection, ie "sudo ifconfig wlan0 down && sudo ifconfig wlan0 up"
[09:47] <FreaZor> ok i will try.
[09:48] <FreaZor> could i install a driver maybe?
[09:49] <glebihan> FreaZor: well maybe, but it doesn't look like a driver issue
[09:49] <teamcoltra> glebihan, http://paste2.org/p/1025425 some of these seem a bit redundant... can I remove some? (list limited to the redundant stuff)
[09:49] <moetunes> if it is working it is not the driver
[09:49] <zruty> what happened to package madwifi-tools ?
[09:50] <MegaHerz> Is there a tool for live search for files? Like OS X Finder
[09:50] <FreaZor> ok
[09:50] <glebihan> teamcoltra: yes you can remove old kernels, though I'd recommend keeping 2 installed
[09:50] <tarzeau> MegaHerz: live search?
[09:50] <tarzeau> MegaHerz: there's find...
[09:50] <MegaHerz> tarzeau: yeah, when you type, it searches for files
[09:51] <teamcoltra> glebihan, I know this is going to sound stupid... but the newest 2 will just be the two highest numbers correct?
[09:51] <MegaHerz> tarzeau: without need for pressing Enter, and which locates on Panel (applet)
[09:51] <glebihan> teamcoltra: you're right
[09:51] <tarzeau> MegaHerz: dunno, i use find when i'm not on mac os x
[09:51] <MegaHerz> tarzeau: you mean cli find? :)
[09:51] <tarzeau> MegaHerz: i actually don't like mac os x finder, i loved openstep much better
[09:51] <tarzeau> MegaHerz: yes, what else?
[09:51] <MegaHerz> tarzeau: :)
[09:51] <teamcoltra> glebihan, I know its a stupid question... but if I don't ask, I will find out that they use some crazy naming scheme AFTER I reinstall
[09:51] <tarzeau> MegaHerz: this is ubuntu, not mac os x
[09:52] <MegaHerz> tarzeau: I know, but a yeah ago I installed a tool like this, just forgot its name (
[09:52] <tarzeau> a bicycle is not a bike is not a car is not a plane
[09:52] <tarzeau> MegaHerz: and now it's gone :)
[09:52] <teamcoltra> glebihan, and final question will this cause conflict if I use this list to upgrade to the newest version (because now that I look its only 2 days away, I might as well not reinstall and just upgrade with the final version)
[09:52] <glebihan> teamcoltra: there are no stupid questions, better asking rather than breaking your system because you were ashamed of asking :)
[09:52] <Osmosis> morning i know that sound stupid but with this option zip -r ride.war /folder y cannot compress this folder
[09:53] <Osmosis> the point is i have several fileas and folders and i want compress all this files/folders in a zip file
[09:53] <tarzeau> MegaHerz: if you had a hammer, everything looks like a nail?
[09:53] <Osmosis> but not inside a folder all the files folders in the root of the zip file
[09:53] <ikonia> ok, can we give the examples a rest
[09:53] <Osmosis> somebody can help me
[09:53] <nitneiht> hello everyone
[09:53] <glebihan> teamcoltra: I don't really understand your question there...
[09:53] <moetunes> Osmosis:  there are better options then zip - why use that?
[09:54] <Osmosis> because  i want zip in a war file
[09:54] <ikonia> Osmosis: what is a war file ?
[09:54] <ikonia> Osmosis: is it already compressed ?
[09:54] <Osmosis> web aplication file
[09:54] <moetunes> I was gonna ask that Osmosis
[09:54] <ikonia> Osmosis: as in a java war
[09:54] <teamcoltra> glebihan, if I upgrade, will installing this list of packages cause any issues with the new packages that come with the new version? like for instance, lets say the new version uses OSS, and my packages are setup for Pulse, woudl that break the sound system (I know that it doesn't but 'for instance')
[09:55] <nitneiht> when i import socket python interpreter through : Traceback (most recent call last):
[09:55] <nitneiht>   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
[09:55] <nitneiht>   File "socket.py", line 2, in <module>
[09:55] <nitneiht>     s= socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'AF_INET'
[09:55] <FloodBot4> nitneiht: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:55] <Osmosis> the point is, i have this java war file, then i descompress all the folder/files in a folder, then i modify sdome files and then, i want compress again with the same estructure that i had before
[09:55] <zruty> join #madwifi
[09:55] <Osmosis> i mean all the files folders in the root of the war file
[09:55] <ikonia> Osmosis: war files are already compressed
[09:55] <glebihan> teamcoltra: no the upgrade will keep your dependencies, just watch what packages are being uninstalled during the process
[09:56] <Osmosis> before to be modify yes
[09:56] <ikonia> Osmosis: war files are not built with zip
[09:56] <Osmosis> but as i told you i need modify some files
[09:56] <tensorpudding> nitneiht: Using which version of python?
[09:56] <Osmosis> so unzip/zip necesary
[09:56] <ikonia> Osmosis: yes, and a war file is not built with zip
[09:56] <teamcoltra> glebihan, perfect... that seems easy enough :) Thanks for your help
[09:56] <glebihan> teamcoltra: you're welcome
[09:56] <Osmosis> you can build anyway
[09:57] <ikonia> Osmosis: how did you uncompress it ?
[09:57] <Osmosis> i did but with this structure zip -r ride.war /tmp/lcds/lcds_final  he create me the war file but with internaly the path /tmp/lcds/lcds_final/And then the folders files that i want in the root of the file
[09:58] <Osmosis> i dont know if i be clear what i want
[09:58] <Osmosis> unzip ride.war -d /tmp/lcds/lcds_final
[09:58] <nitneiht> tensorpudding : 2.6.5
[09:58] <ikonia> Osmosis: cd into "folder" and do zip -r /tmp/ride.war .
[09:58] <Osmosis> then i unzip the ride contain in that folder
[09:58] <tensorpudding> nitneiht: is that the one in lucid?
[09:58] <nitneiht> yes
[09:59] <Osmosis> zip -r /tmp/ride.war
[09:59] <Osmosis> ikonia, ubuntu@ip-10-226-231-21:/tmp/lcds/lcds_final/tmp/lcds/lcds_final$ zip -r /tmp/ride.war
[09:59] <Osmosis> zip error: Nothing to do! (/tmp/ride.war)
[09:59] <ikonia> Osmosis: no, that's not what I said
[09:59] <Osmosis> "cd into "folder" and do zip -r /tmp/ride.war ." mmmm then i dont underatand XD
[10:00] <Osmosis> ikonia, what do you mean?
[10:00] <nitneiht> tensorpudding  yes
[10:00] <ikonia> Osmosis: zip needs either an absolute path, or a current working directory
[10:00] <tensorpudding> nitneiht: hmm, that is strange
[10:01] <Osmosis> this is the path where i have the files/folders that i want compress in the war file
[10:01] <Osmosis> /tmp/lcds/lcds_final/tmp/lcds/lcds_final$
[10:01] <nitneiht> strange?
[10:01] <nitneiht> tensorpudding: strange?
[10:01] <tensorpudding> nitneiht: well, it looks to be a bug with socket.py
[10:02] <Osmosis> and i want that the war file not be created with the same path inside him as is happening
[10:02] <ikonia> Osmosis: it doesn't matter, you need to specifcy an absolute path or a current working directory for the files
[10:02] <nitneiht> tensorpudding  how to fix it
[10:02] <nitneiht> ?
[10:02] <tensorpudding> nitneiht: which i'm pretty sure is a built-in library with python, and if you're running the version in lucid it shouldn't have such an obvious bug

[10:06] <glebihan> !maverick | goodnight
[10:06] <bazhang> goodnight, yes.  #ubuntu+1 for more
[10:09] <mengbiping> hey, can anyone help me, how can i determine in a bash script whether an existing binary was compiled in release or debug mode?
[10:09] <collabra> anyone know if a default install of ubuntu will run on separate machines,... for example,... if i load ubuntu on a usb harddrive,... will it be able to run on any other 32bit machine.... just wondering if hardware is univerally supported.... thanx
[10:10] <tarzeau> mengbiping: try to strip it or use file?
[10:10] <ikonia> collabra: the linux kernel is dynamic and will only load what it needs for each machine
[10:10] <ikonia> collabra: the only issue you may have is around video cards, nvidia/ati on the different machines
[10:11] <tarzeau> ikonia: it's not THAT dynamic
[10:11] <ikonia> it will run fine
[10:11] <collabra> ikonia: so, yes then,... my usb harddrive will work on other machines
[10:11] <collabra> ok,... thanx ikonia
[10:11] <ikonia> at a base level yes, for specific functions you may have to tweak
[10:11] <collabra> for exaple....?
[10:11] <ikonia> the video cards for example
[10:11] <collabra> example..
[10:11] <teamcoltra> yeah .. lets say "under good circumstances" it will just work on your various machines
[10:11] <collabra> is that about it
[10:12] <ikonia> no there are others
[10:12] <mengbiping> tarzeau: is there some cases in which there's debug info in a optimized mode compiled binary?
[10:12] <collabra> i'm just wondering if for the most part that i will be able to use it on other machines.... generally.
[10:13] <collabra> right on,... thank you.
[10:13] <Kaco> hello there
[10:15] <mengbiping> tarzeau: i want to know if the binary has been compiled with -O options on
[10:15] <FreaZor> could anyone tell me why my fan is very loud in ubuntu ? in win7 it is not that loud. Im using ubuntu persistant mode with my usb stick.
[10:16] <teamcoltra> Would 10.10 really normally land on 10/10/10? or was that just really weird coincidence? (I know that they are 6 month cycles, but I don't remember the day of the last 6th month)
[10:17] <Osmosis> ikonia, the problem to use the absolute path as you said, is if i compress with zip -r ride.war /absolute_path he zip me the file with this path inside the compress file
[10:17] <ikonia> Osmosis: so use the current working directory, as I've said
[10:17] <Osmosis> and i want the folders, files in the root of the root compress file
[10:17] <TiK> oi
[10:18] <Osmosis> i'm executing this query in the working directory
[10:18] <ikonia> Osmosis: what is the exact line you are using
[10:18] <Osmosis> sudo zip -r ride.war /tmp/lcds/lcds_final/tmp/lcds/lcds_final/
[10:18] <ikonia> actually, never mind, I've lost interest,
[10:18] <collabra> what's a standard 'mail' server,... relatively secure?
[10:18] <ikonia> Osmosis: that's not the current working directy, that's an absoulte path again
[10:18] <Osmosis> lcds_final es where i'm and where have all the files/folders
[10:19] <ikonia> collabra: there isn't a standard
[10:19] <TiK> type pwd
[10:19] <ikonia> collabra: sendmail, postfix, exim, all fine
[10:19] <Osmosis> what is the current working directory then?
[10:19] <ikonia> Osmosis: there current working directory of where the files are
[10:19] <ikonia> Osmosis: not where the war is
[10:19] <Osmosis> forget the war
[10:19] <Osmosis> the war does not exist yet
[10:19] <ikonia> Osmosis: I know
[10:19] <Osmosis> this folder is where i have my files directories
[10:20] <SilentSadist> Hello :D I'm sure this is a super common problem, but my wifi is disabled and I need to turn it back on. I am connected through ethernet atm. Also, even after having read over 3hrs worth of forum advice, I was still unsuccessful. Can someone help me troubleshoot this problem please?
[10:20] <ikonia> then why are you specifcying /tmp/lcds/lcds_final/tmp/lcds/lcds_final/
[10:20] <Osmosis> because if not i recieve this message
[10:20] <Osmosis> ubuntu@ip-10-226-231-21:/tmp/lcds/lcds_final/tmp/lcds/lcds_final$ sudo zip -r ride.war
[10:20] <Osmosis> zip error: Nothing to do! (ride.war)
[10:21] <ikonia> Osmosis: because that is not a valid command
[10:21] <ikonia> !wifi | SilentSadist
[10:21] <Osmosis> why not?, zip recursively for the files, folders
[10:21] <Osmosis> what is the correct command please
[10:22] <SilentSadist> okay obottu, I will give that a try
[10:22] <ikonia> Omen_20: sudo zip -r ride.war then what? you're not telling the command to put anything into ride.war
[10:22] <Osmosis> i read the man and this is the only that compress file/folders -r
[10:22] <SilentSadist> ubottu (sry, 2am and my brain aint so bright...)
[10:22] <StaRetji1> Folks, how would one assign * on a keyboard to type . (dot)? I've tried putting inside .Xmodmap keycode 33 = . . . but nothing happens
[10:23] <Osmosis> that's why i specific the folder   zip -r ride.war /tmp/lcds/lcds_final/tmp/lcds/lcds_final/
[10:23] <htorque> hello everyone! for some reason thunderbird uses english for the interface even with its locale package installed. is this a known issue? i tried to disable the english entries in tb's language add-on overview, but no luck.
[10:23] <Osmosis> but then he create me the war file with this same path inside the file
[10:23] <ikonia> Osmosis: you're not listening, but in the path where your files are and use the current working directory
[10:23] <Osmosis> and i want the working directory in the root of the file
[10:23] <Sanctusorium> I just installed Ubuntu and I want to set up a way to make my Windows 7 partition bootable with a virtual machine and also avaiable to boot into from start up.  Any ideas? :)
[10:23] <ikonia> Osmosis: eg: if your files are in /tmp, cd /tmp, then sudo zip -r /home/youruser/ride.war .
[10:24] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: well, it's bootable from startup via grub, so no problems there
[10:24] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: for inside a virtual machine, use kvm, or vmware and specify the disk image as your windows partition, and it will boot
[10:24] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: it's that simple
[10:24] <StaRetji1> Folks, how would one assign * on a keyboard to type . (dot)? I've tried putting inside .Xmodmap keycode 33 = . . . but nothing happens
[10:25] <StaRetji1>  It's on my remote control (acting like a keyboard) and I don't have "." I only have "*" so I need to remap this to "."
[10:25] <StaRetji1> Any help would be highly appreciated, thx
[10:25] <Osmosis> i repeat you ikonia that you are not listen to my error as well man, if i do as you tell me i recieve this error
[10:25] <Osmosis> \ubuntu@ip-10-226-231-21:/tmp/lcds/lcds_final/tmp/lcds/lcds_final$ sudo zip -r /home/ubuntu/ride.war
[10:25] <Osmosis> zip error: Nothing to do! (/home/ubuntu/ride.war)
[10:25] <ikonia> Osmosis: you're missing the dot
[10:25] <ikonia> Osmosis: I've typed it 3 times for you
[10:26] <Sanctusorium> ikonia, VMware only give me the option of picking ISOs for disk images... =/
[10:26] <ikonia> Osmosis: eg: if your files are in /tmp, cd /tmp, then sudo zip -r /home/youruser/ride.war .
[10:26] <Osmosis> ohhh
[10:26] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: that's install media
[10:26] <Osmosis> ok
[10:26] <Osmosis> sorry you right lost the dot
[10:26] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: use kvm then, it works fine here, I use it all the time
[10:26] <ikonia> !kvm > Sanctusorium
[10:26] <Sanctusorium> KVM it is then! :)
[10:27] <Osmosis> nope
[10:27] <ikonia> Osmosis: what now
[10:27] <uLinux> this channel never sleeps :p
[10:27] <Osmosis> ikonia, still copy into my file the same path of my working directory
[10:27] <Osmosis> and i dont want the working directory inside

[10:27] <Osmosis> only the files, folders

[10:28] <MarcRichter> Hi there! I've two questions, which I couldn't find by using google. 1) If I want to update a package in Ubuntu and want to prevent that this daemon is started afterwards, how can I do this?
[10:28] <ikonia> Osmosis: you don't read what's being typed, so I'm going to stop helping you
[10:29] <Osmosis> sorry ikonia, but i think that you ask for this
[10:29] <ikonia> Osmosis: I didn't - I asked for the output of"pwd" very specific, you're on your own now
[10:29] <simplexio> MarcRichter: do you mean _start_ everytime systems boots ? if so update-rc.d app remove
[10:29] <leife> Osmosis: pwd only prints out one line
[10:30] <simplexio> MarcRichter: it might get started after apt-get install
[10:30] <Osmosis> sorry i thought that you want the output of the compress file
[10:30] <Osmosis> lcds/tmp/lcds/lcds_final
[10:30] <Osmosis> here
[10:30] <Osmosis> sorry
[10:30] <FloodBot4> Osmosis: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:30] <Osmosis> this is where i have my files/folders
[10:30] <Osmosis> and there is where i execute the script that you told me
[10:31] <MarcRichter> 2) We need to build a package (the php5 ones) by source, since we need a function which is not available within the ubuntu default packages. We're doing this by: "apt-get -y source php5 ; apt-get -y build-dep php5", "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot" and installing this result with dpkg. But apt wants to still update these packages afterwards. Can someone tell me why?
[10:31] <Osmosis> but then the war file has inside this path until the files, folders " lcds/tmp/lcds/lcds_final" and this is what i want avoid
[10:32] <Sanctusorium> ikonia, on the KVM install page, it says its assuming I am using a server with no X.  How will the fact that I am NOT using a server and DO have X installed change this install guide?
[10:32] <Sanctusorium> I am using this one: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/KVM/Installation
[10:32] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: nothing
[10:32] <Sanctusorium> Cool, thank you again :)
[10:32] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: it's easier with X as you can use the libvirt gui
[10:33] <bradleyayers> if i do "Rescue a system" from a ubuntu 8.04 CD will it work properly on my 10.04, or will it wreck it ?
[10:33] <MarcRichter> simplexio: No. I have a cluster, where NFS shall not be started per default but by Heartbeat. And when I'm doing the apt-get dist-upgrade, there's an update for NFS available, which restarts the daemon. This I want to prevent, but the package thinkls it failed to install when I skip this Step by "Strg-C".
[10:33] <ikonia> bradleyayers: dependes what you do, if you just want a shell, it will be fine
[10:34] <bradleyayers> i want it to install drivers for my hardware, i change mobo + cpu + ram
[10:34] <bradleyayers> and now things dont seem to work properly
[10:34] <ikonia> bradleyayers: then it will not work
[10:34] <bradleyayers> thanks
[10:34] <bradleyayers> should i do it with a 10.04 cd?
[10:35] <ikonia> bradleyayers: that would make more sense
[10:35] <bradleyayers> internet is slow here, so downloading a cd was my last resort
[10:36] <MarcRichter> simplexio: Any Idea ? O.O
[10:36] <bradleyayers> 5 hours remaining :(
[10:36] <Benoms1> Hi, i was wondering if someone could help me with this: I just plugged in an external hard drive, but it won't let me mount it. Its giving me the error: according to mtab, /dev/sdb1 is already mounted on / . I have tried reformatting it but it won't let me. When I type mount in terminal, the first line is "/dev/sdb1 on / type ext4 (rw,errors=remount-ro)" but theres no reference to /dev/sdb1 in my fstab.
[10:36] <Benoms1> mount failed.
[10:37] <Benoms1> bah actually i meant internal
[10:37] <ikonia> Benoms1: sdb1 is mounted as your root file syste
[10:37] <ikonia> system
[10:38] <ikonia> Benoms1: you can't mount it again while it's already mounted
[10:38] <simplexio> MarcRichter: hmm not yet
[10:38] <Benoms1> ikonia: but im just to mount a newly plugged in blank hard drive.. is there any way to make it mount as a different dev?
[10:39] <ikonia> Benoms1: why do you think the new external hard disk is sdb ?
[10:39] <bradleyayers> ikonia: i guess my main problem is that my network interfaces no longer work, my intel pro/1000 card is making my kernel spit out "e1000: eth1: e1000_clean_tx_irq: Detected Tx Unit Hang" messages :S
[10:40] <Benoms1> ikonia: because when i go to disk manager, select it and click 'Mount' it gives me the error "Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with: mount: according to mtab, /dev sdb1 is already mounted on / mount failed"
[10:40] <ikonia> Benoms1: yes, sdb1 is already mounted, which suggests that is not your external drive
[10:40] <Benoms1> ikonia: so its trying to mount at /dev/sbd1.. can i someone make it try to mount to a different point?
[10:40] <ikonia> Benoms1: it's already mounted
[10:41] <ikonia> Benoms1: why do you think your external disk is sdb1
[10:41] <StaRetji1> Folks, need help with dnsmasq, is someone familiar with it and willing to help? Pls :)
[10:41] <MarcRichter> simplexio: Thank you anyway :)
[10:41] <ikonia> StaRetji1: just ask the question
[10:41] <StaRetji1> I'm receiving IP but I have only local network beetween machine hosting dnsmasq
[10:41] <StaRetji1> and my laptop
[10:42] <ikonia> StaRetji1: ok, what are you expecting ?
[10:42] <StaRetji1> I can access machine, but it seems there is no routing at all. I thought dnsmasq would do that by default
[10:42] <Benoms1> ikonia: I go to disk utility, select the 'ATA SAMSUNG' drive (which is the only samsung i have and have just plugged it in), that and the partitian has the name 'Bens storage', so i know that i have selected the drive that I just plugged in, and select 'Mount' i get that error. If it was already mounted, it wouldn't say 'Mount' it would say 'Unmount'
[10:42] <kaco2> hello
[10:43] <ikonia> Benoms1: in nautilus go into /media do you see the disk "Bens storage" there
[10:43] <Benoms1> ikonia: no
[10:43] <StaRetji1> In other words, i receive IP, gatweay and dns address, but I have only local net, it seems that there is no routing/masquarading
[10:44] <ikonia> Benoms1: do you see anything in media ?
[10:44] <ikonia> Benoms1: in /media sorry
[10:44] <simplexio> MarcRichter: maybe some dpkg-? program has options
[10:44] <Benoms1> ikonia: yes, i see the other stuff that I have mounted (laptop, music)
[10:44] <TenPhil> Question; after upgrading to 10.10 the Netbook Interface Session does not revert to Unity, any way of fixing this without reinstalling?
[10:45] <ikonia> Benoms1: ok, can you use the pastebin, and show me the output of these two commands in it 1.) mount 2.) sudo fdisk -l
[10:45] <Benoms1> ikonia: can i pm you?
[10:45] <ikonia> Benoms1: why do you need to ?
[10:45] <Benoms1> ikonia: the paste would be huge wouldn't it?
[10:46] <ikonia> Benoms1: that's why I said use a pastebin
[10:46] <htorque> i've changed my system language, now how do i update all the LC_* variables listed by 'locale'?

[10:48] <Benoms1> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/508656/
[10:49] <ikonia> Benoms1: ok, so looking at that you have 3 disks in your system,
[10:49] <ikonia> Benoms1: does that sound right
[10:49] <Benoms1> ikonia: yes
[10:49] <ikonia> Benoms1: I can tell you now for a fact, that sdb is your internal disk that you have your linux system and your windows partition on
[10:49] <ikonia> Benoms1: it's the 320 GB disk
[10:49] <Benoms1> ikonia: yep that sounds right
[10:49] <ikonia> Benoms1: is the external disk 1.5TB
[10:49] <Sanctusorium> ikonia, I got KVM installed with the GUI, but its still not giving me an option to open a already installed OS file system.  I got using local media and through a network.
[10:50] <Benoms1> ikonia: the 1.5 is working fine, its the 1TB that isn't
[10:50] <Osmosis> ikonia, i check again that you told me before and works, thank you very much
[10:50] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: that's install media options, you don't want to do an install
[10:50] <Benoms1> ikonia: its trying to mount to sdb
[10:50] <ikonia> Benoms1: ok, so it's the tool, not the problem, as a test, do "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt"
[10:50] <Osmosis> and sorry, i'm new here in Ubuntu world, and in IRC as well need to lear the rules
[10:51] <ikonia> Osmosis: it's not rules, it's listening and reading what's being said
[10:51] <simplexio> MarcRichter: yep. it seems that invoke-rc.d and policy-rc.d are key words for what you want to do
[10:51] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: create a disk image, and instead of using a disk image, select your partition on the real physical disk
[10:51] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: you won't need to install then, just power on the VM
[10:51] <Benoms1> ikonia: that didn't ggive an error or anything, but the drive didn't pop up on my desktop
[10:51] <Osmosis> yeah but i mean that with all lines i lost some parts of the conversation, will try to take care next time ;-)
[10:52] <ikonia> Benoms1: ok, it won't, use nautlius to look in /mnt is that the right disk ?
[10:52] <Guest85185> how do i view the channel topic
[10:52] <ikonia> Guest85185: type "/topic"
[10:52] <Guest85185> thank you
[10:52] <Benoms1> ikonia: there is nothing in mnt
[10:52] <ikonia> Benoms1: nothing at all ?
[10:52] <ikonia> Benoms1: is that disk blank ?
[10:52] <mawst> No.
[10:53] <mawst> If you have gnome use the disk utility to see even unmounted drives.
[10:53] <Sanctusorium> ikonia, is this making a copy of the WIndows install?
[10:53] <Benoms1> ikonia: correct, nothing in mnt. Yes the disk is plank
[10:53] <Benoms1> blank*
[10:53] <mawst> And their paths.
[10:53] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: no
[10:53] <simplexio> MarcRichter: and you will find more info about those with google
[10:53] <ikonia> Benoms1: ahh, that's fine, ok, so thats the right disk and it does mount fine
[10:53] <Sanctusorium> Okie :)  Let me do a bit of searching of how to create it then.
[10:54] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: you already have windows installed on a partition, tell the kvm machine to use that partition instead of a virual disk, and then power on the vm, it will boot from the physical partition
[10:54] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: you don't need to create
[10:54] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: you've got the install you want to use on the partition
[10:56] <MarcRichter> simplexio: THANKS! Seems like that's a good hook to investigate further :)
[10:56] <simplexio> MarcRichter: package is policyrcd-script-zg2 , i too was intrested how its done. may come handy in future
[10:57] <Benoms1> ikonia: I see what you mean, now, in Disk Utilty, it says that it is mounted.. but how do i add stuff to it and have it display on the desktop. I really appreciate your help with this btw
[10:57] <simplexio> MarcRichter: and far as i understand that policy-rc.d only affects services when they are started from invoke-rc.d
[10:57] <Benoms1> ikonia: it has an NTFS volume on it..
[10:57] <ikonia> Benoms1: I think (not certain) if you reboot, it will sort it's self out
[10:57] <ikonia> Benoms1: it looks like plugging in the disk has confused the disk assignments
[10:57] <Benoms1> ikonia: ok thanks very much. will try it
[10:57] <Sanctusorium> ikonia, Sorry if I am being completely oblivious, I am not seeing how to tell KVM to use the NTFS partition.  I am using the GUI for KVM made by Canocial
[10:58] <sirwallis> hello all
[10:58] <Sanctusorium> Virtual Machine Manager.
[10:58] <ikonia> Sanctusorium: it asks you to make a file for the file system for the vm, point it at the partition
[10:59] <damiankw> a quick question (hopefully), if i sudo -s from a username, how can i get that original username once in root?
[10:59] <nothingspecial> damiankw: su username
[10:59] <damiankw> oh, i mean how can i echo out that original username
[11:01] <nothingspecial> damiankw: You want to know the last user in that shell since root?
[11:03] <erUSUL> damiankw: not possible afaics
[11:03] <abhi_> hello, i was creating the usb startup disk with ubuntu 10.04, with the startup disk creater utility, the window of application is hung at 99% since 20 minutes, and it says that still it is installing. What should I do now? any Ideas? Thanks in advance
[11:03] <damiankw> i guess that would be the way to put it. i was thinking it wasn't possible, but wanted to make sure
[11:03] <erUSUL> damiankw: btw you should use « sudo -i »
[11:04] <nothingspecial> damiankw: Good question, I don`t know
[11:04] <MarcRichter> simplexio: I have to over- and overlook this several times - since those words aren't telling me anything yet ;D
[11:04] <MarcRichter> simplexio: But I'm on my way ... :)
[11:04] <erUSUL> damiankw: turns out i was wrong ...
[11:05] <erUSUL> damiankw: echo $SUDO_USER
[11:05] <damiankw> in the respect i need it, i have a couple of users on the server that log in as themselves, then sudo to root in order to do admin features - i want to log the original username on the commands
[11:05] <damiankw> you're so sexy to me right now, erUSUL, thanks!
[11:06] <erUSUL> damiankw: you're wellcome
[11:07] <zermann> Hi, is there a way to auto login with the guest account?

[11:09] <Gateway`> hello everybody
[11:09] <abhi_> hello, i was creating the usb startup disk with ubuntu 10.04, with the startup disk creater utility, the window of application is hung at 99% since 20 minutes, and it says that still it is installing. What should I do now? any Ideas?
[11:09] <erUSUL> !away > Liammm
[11:09] <Gateway`> Can somebody help me find the right package in order to configure an APC UPS in the network
[11:10] <Gateway`> because I don't know to attribute the Network Management Card an IP address
[11:10] <Gateway`> I don't know how ...
[11:10] <Gateway`> so please, if somebody can help me, I'll be so greatful
[11:11] <erUSUL> Gateway`: so what are you asking? how to set up ip address to an interface in Network manager?
[11:12] <Gateway`> erUSUL, thanks for answering me, but it's an APC Smartups Network management card
[11:12] <llutz> Gateway`: sudo arp -s <ip-you-want-apctohave> <mac-of-apc-nic>
[11:12] <WXZ> I just removed something from a panel
[11:12] <WXZ> how can I "unremove" it
[11:12] <WXZ> I don't know what it was
[11:13] <erUSUL> WXZ: right click on the panel choose add to panel. look in the list
[11:13] <zatan> Hi , Is it possible to get more information about wireless router ? If you are connected in that AP ?
[11:13] <WXZ> I don't know what I removed erUSUL
[11:13] <Gateway`> llutz, thanks but how can I know the mac address of this card ? it could be written on it ?
[11:13] <erUSUL> WXZ: can you describe it at least?
[11:13] <Gateway`> llutz, because I've lost all the manuals :s
[11:13] <WXZ> oh, it's the volume control.. I think
[11:13] <erUSUL> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/apcupsd
[11:14] <llutz> Gateway`: have a look at the case
[11:14] <erUSUL> WXZ: you need the indicator applet
[11:14] <Gateway`> llutz, I'm going to do it right now
[11:15] <WXZ> anyway to move the notification area?
[11:15] <erUSUL> WXZ: right click choose move?
[11:15] <WXZ> nope
[11:15] <AbhiJit> unlock first
[11:16] <WXZ> I removed it and then just added it back on
[11:16] <WXZ> meh, it worked
[11:17] <Gateway`> llutz, sorry but I didn't find anything on it, just 10/100 baseT
[11:18] <Gateway`> is there a way to get the mac address using the model and the serial number ?
[11:19] <Gateway`> erUSUL, the url that you gave me could help me resolve the problem ?
[11:19] <Gangrel> anyone can help me make microsoft lifecam vx-1000 microphone work on 10.04?
[11:19] <erUSUL> Gateway`: really dunno; the ups is not connected to any machine? it has its own network card?
[11:19] <Gateway`> erUSUL, because I've already installed it using the com1 port, and it gives the possibility to shutdown the machine
[11:20] <Gateway`> but not configuring the NMC on the network :s
[11:21] <Gateway`> erUSUL, it's connected the network by this Network Management Card and it can get connected via COM1 port as I said, but this method gives the possibilty to shutdown the machine when the rest of charge reach a certain value, so the APC shuts down the machine in a safe way
[11:21] <erUSUL> Gateway`: http://www.apcupsd.com/ ? the manual looks pretty complete. also maybe in the mailing list you get better help
[11:22] <Gateway`> but only the machine connected to it via COM1
[11:22] <Gateway`> ok I'll see that, thank you
[11:23] <Crash1hd> Hey All does anyone know of a good auto update svn script? that checks the subversion folder for added and removed files?
[11:23] <erUSUL> Gateway`: this http://www.apcupsd.com/manual/manual.html#support-for-snmp-upses
[11:24] <erUSUL> Gateway`: following on the great advice from llutz The MAC address is located on the quality assurance
[11:24] <erUSUL> slip that is shipped with the NMC, and is also located on the white
[11:24] <erUSUL> sticker on the NMC itself.
[11:24] <erUSUL> quote from the site
[11:24] <chen624> ?
[11:24] <Gateway`> erUSUL, I'll check again but I'm sure I didn't find anything on it
[11:25] <Gateway`> but I'm checking again :)
[11:25] <Gateway`> brb

[11:45] <dotnetted> Hey all - I currently have a Linksys WRT600N (pci) wireless card working fine on 10.01 and need to replace it with a WUSB600N (usb) - My  network is currently manually config'd and the PCI adapter works fine as wlan0 - The USB adapter shows up as wlan1_rename and I can't connect to anything with it. - wlan1_rename doesn't read its settings from /etc/network/interfaces according to iwconfig - any tips? thnx
[11:45] <xuekan> shadi,you may set the software to the unvisiable mode.
[11:45] <MarcRichter> OK, I still need help with my second question: Can anybody tell me why APT doesn't recognize compiled packets as updated? For example with PHP: We update that with "apt-get -y source php5 ; apt-get -y build-dep php5 ; dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot" and installing the resulted packages with dpkg.
[11:45] <MarcRichter> After that, apt-get dist-upgrade wants to still update PHP and replaces our self build ones with the repos.
[11:45] <MarcRichter> Why is this happening?
[11:46] <moetunes> !checkinstall
[11:46] <moetunes> MarcRichter:  ^^

[11:58] <moetunes> !cn | xiaochun
[11:58] <blade> Jordan_U : lol.. no i have another OS on a different drive in the same system. i am currently logged in from it.
[11:58] <Krishnandu> crimsonmane: There are plenty....just pick one
[11:58] <Jordan_U> blade: Then don't reboot yet.
[11:59] <crimsonmane> lol was looking for a recommendation of one you personally prefer
[11:59] <Krishnandu> blade: you need to reinstall grub. what OS are you using now..??
[11:59] <Jordan_U> blade: Can you run boot info script as explained here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and pastebin the RESULTS.txt?
[11:59] <blade> Krishnandu: i have ubuntu 8.04 in the other drive.. can i reinstall grub from this OS??
[11:59] <moetunes> crimsonmane:  "linux code" is pretty broad - is there something you want to do in particular?
[12:00] <Krishnandu> blade: yes...follow Jordan_U
[12:00] <Krishnandu> crimsonmane: well...I forgot the author...but Learning Unix is good and esy

[12:02] <notjohn> is anyone familiar with how to re-enable the multitouch support? I had it in 10.04.
[12:02] <blade> Jordan_U : sure.. i will be on the chat as long as the problem persists.. Thanq.
[12:02] <moetunes> crimsonmane:  something about   linux system administration   might be the ticket then
[12:03] <moetunes> crimsonmane:  oreilly has some books on that - free on the net if you know where to look

[12:32] <tensorpudding> EvilCoder: check out /etc/motd, that is what is pasted when you login
[12:32] <tensorpudding> EvilCoder: you could put output of /etc/motd at the end
[12:32] <howard__> anyone know how to do reverse arp lookup?
[12:33] <tensorpudding> EvilCoder: err, the output of uname at the end
[12:33] <a5h15h> tensorpudding, the variable is not listed in the list(auto-completion list)?
[12:33] <Stellarium-> :) exit, quit, exit :)
[12:33] <tensorpudding> a5h15h: it might not be set by default
[12:33] <EvilCoder> tensorpudding : this will shows to every user, and it wont execute the command, as its a banner not the bash script, and i want for certain users, not all users,
[12:34] <greppy> EvilCoder: man update-motd

[12:34] <Andr> but you can also use fdisk or cfisk.
[12:34] <Andr> gparted is not command line
[12:35] <Stellarium-> gparted is an excellent live cd

[12:36] <uwsb> hello, I have a quick question, where can I get kernel source for 2.6.35 and how do i compile it on Ubuntu?
[12:36] <Jordan_U> uwsb: Why do you want to compile your own kernel?
[12:36] <tensorpudding> a5h15h: I forgot the name of the variable you wanted to configure, but that was the whole thing
[12:36] <SealedWithAKiss> I have no sound in Ubuntu 10.04 can anybody help me troubleshoot?
[12:37] <fsjfhsfjhgsf> e
[12:37] <uwsb> Jordan_U: because I want to try out.  besides I am slowly getting into kernel hacking so want to learn how to compile it on ubuntu in the first place.
[12:37] <tensorpudding> a5h15h: put it *scratch* and execute it for immediate effects, or put it in your .emacs to have it run every time you start emacs
[12:37] <Jordan_U> !kernel | uwsb

[12:43] <thter> i cant unmount a drive in GParted
[12:43] <fsjfhsfjhgsf> okay
[12:43] <c_nick> thter: why ? is it mounted in the first place
[12:43] <tensorpudding> thter: gparted is a partitioner, it doesn't deal with mounting and unmounting
[12:43] <thter> nor in terminal
[12:43] <tensorpudding> thter: check to make sure there are no open files on the medium you want to unmount
[12:44] <thter> c_nick, ^
[12:44] <c_nick> thter: do fdisk -l and see if the drive is mounted
[12:44] <EvilCoder> greppy : can i PM you for a little help ?
[12:44] <thter> c_nick, that didnt do any thing
[12:45] <uwsb> hello, i got dc, I was just wondering if I take the vanila kernel from kernel.org, will it compile without any changes to U buntu?
[12:45] <c_nick> huh
[12:45] <tensorpudding> uwsb: Almost surely it will compile
[12:45] <c_nick> thter: sudo fdisk -l
[12:45] <tensorpudding> uwsb: assuming that you have the build requirements
[12:45] <uwsb> tensorpudding: does Ubuntu maintain their own kernel source?
[12:46] <tensorpudding> they have sources, yes
[12:46] <tensorpudding> in the linux-header-* packages i believe
[12:46] <thter> c_nick, yes it is mounted
[12:46] <uwsb> tensorpudding: can i get the source for 2.6.35?
[12:46] <c_nick> thter: umount.. ?
[12:46] <diggan> what is the right channel for me if I want to get help with domains?
[12:46] <thter> how do i dismount the son of a gun
[12:46] <tensorpudding> uwsb: there is a PPA for kernels
[12:46] <c_nick> Can i access my mails instead of going into Evolution.. like directly pick it up from the Disk?
[12:46] <thter> c_nick, what does umount have to do with anything?
[12:46] <tensorpudding> uwsb: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[12:47] <uwsb> tensorpudding: well, I was reading a document on the same but they tell to pull from git.
[12:47] <Stellarium-> HiddenKnowledge: http://www.scribd.com/doc/15490764/Linux-in-a-Nutshell-by-OReilly-Media
[12:47] <tensorpudding> uwsb: git will pull you the development sources, will all the fancy revision information, and will likely be quite weighty
[12:48] <HiddenKnowledge> Stellarium-: Yes, but why do you tell me about that book? I didn't ask a question regarding linux in a nutshell/
[12:49] <tensorpudding> uwsb: unless you want to do kernel development, the git sources are probably not what you want
[12:49] <HiddenKnowledge> Stellarium-: Unless you can read my mind regarding my next question, haha.
[12:49] <tensorpudding> uwsb: though wait, you said that was what you wanted to do...
[12:50] <uwsb> tensorpudding: if i can directly get the 2.6.35 source which is stable enough to work with, I will just like to try compiling and installing it on my machine to begin with.
 How do I get a list of ubottu commands?
[12:51] <uwsb> tensorpudding: i just want the kernel source which I can make menu config, make and sudo make instal
[12:51] <OttifantSir> I need someone to help me make "line" in my mother's email-adress (linebass60@xxxx.xxx) be part of the adress, not the code in this javascript: http://pastebin.com/696fzPBV
[12:51] <HiddenKnowledge> Stellarium-: I meant ubottu, the channel bot.
[12:51] <fabz> anyone know anything about PXE here? I have a question relating to PXE and Ubuntu LTSP
[12:52] <c3l> Stellarium-: http://ubottu.com/factoids.cgi
[12:52] <Stellarium-> HiddenKnowledge: Oh i thought it was some weird typo for ubuntu
[12:52] <tensorpudding> uwsb: are you on lucid, by the way?
[12:52] <HiddenKnowledge> Stellarium-: Haha :)
[12:53] <uwsb> tensorpudding: so what is better, takeing the vanila kernel from kernel.org or going to the ppa link you gave and download the ubuntu tarboll
[12:53] <tensorpudding> uwsb: 2.6.35 is on maverick by default
[12:53] <uwsb> tensorpudding: yes on lucid
[12:53] <CazacuB> http://paste.ubuntu.com/508713/ :-s
[12:53] <kjelle> Why can't i map <C-Space> to something in VIM in my console on Ubuntu?
[12:53] <fabz> I have an existing DHCP server which acts as PXE server (on debian) I want to keep the current PXE in place but would liek to add the option to boot to the LTSP server from the PXE menu, any tips?
[12:53] <tensorpudding> uwsb: regardless there is a linux-headers-<version>-generic package, which contains the sources for the version which is used by ubuntu
[12:54] <HiddenKnowledge> OttifantSir: I think that is offtopic here, you will have to ask your question in another channel.
[12:54] <jrib> kjelle: you can, #vim can probably help you bind it
[12:54] <uwsb> tensorpudding: basically i want to use the backported kernel from the upcoming mavaric
[12:54] <tensorpudding> uwsb: stored in /usr/src/linux-headers-<version name>-generic
[12:54] <OneMillionDollar> how to check i got php installed in my ubuntu or not
[12:55] <uwsb> tensorpudding: but that is only for the current version which is .32
[12:55] <thter> im trying to make a partition but Gparted is saying the device "is apparently in use by the system". what does this mean?
[12:55] <uwsb> tensorpudding: i am aware that .35 is stable now
[12:55] <Stellarium-> If anyone is interested here is the full version of Linux in a Nutshell 6th edition http://www.2shared.com/document/rIayrqwe/Linux_in_a_Nutshell_6th_Editio.html
[12:55] <tensorpudding> OneMillionDollar: dpkg -L php5 I think
[12:55] <c3l> thter: you need to unmount the drive if you want to change its partitions
[12:56] <OneMillionDollar> do i need to install a webserver if i want to learn php pgramming ?
[12:56] <HiddenKnowledge> Stellarium-: I think you just broke a rule regarding warez, not sure.
[12:56] <thter> the drive is unmounted c3l
[12:56] <fabz> I have an existing DHCP server which acts as PXE server (on debian) I want to keep the current PXE in place but would liek to add the option to boot to the LTSP server from the PXE menu, any tips? <---- anyone?
[12:56] <Stellarium-> It's not an application or game so I don't know
[12:56] <tensorpudding> uwsb: pretty sure that PPA has 35 available
[12:56] <c3l> OneMillionDollar: not really, but php is basically only used for server scripting for websites/webapps
[12:57] <c3l> OneMillionDollar: so having a webserver to test it on would be recommended I guess
[12:57] <uwsb> tensorpudding: so can I just go there and download the tarball?
[12:57] <Stellarium-> OneMillionDollar: install Apache
[12:57] <tensorpudding> uwsb: that's not how a PPA works, really
[12:57] <tensorpudding> uwsb: you add it to your Software Sources, then you can pick the packages in Synaptic or the Software Center
[12:57] <OneMillionDollar> what do i need to install in my computer if i want to learn php ? is it possible not to install webserver ?
[12:57] <uwsb> tensorpudding: i am behind a proxy and aptitude is not working due to a port blockage
[12:58] <thter> im trying to make a partition but Gparted is saying the device "is apparently in use by the system". what does this mean?
[12:58] <uwsb> tensorpudding: so i need to get a tarboll
[12:58] <chalcedny> is there some *.mov 2 *avi convert program on ubuntu, please?
[12:58] <HiddenKnowledge> OttifantSir: You could learn it on a free webhost.
[12:58] <OneMillionDollar> i dont like to install webserver cos there's too many parameters and configuration
[12:58] <tensorpudding> uwsb: how is aptitude blocked, but IRC is not?
[12:58] <bazhang> chalcedny, ffmpeg ?
[12:58] <OneMillionDollar> i'm afrraid one mistake might invite hacker
[12:59] <OttifantSir> HiddenKnowledge: Which do you recommend?
[12:59] <tensorpudding> OneMillionDollar: You can have the webserver bind to localhost only
[12:59] <uwsb> tensorpudding: really don't know but sudo aptitude or apt-get is not  going through the network
[12:59] <tensorpudding> OneMillionDollar: Or put it behind a NAT, or run a firewall
[12:59] <tensorpudding> uwsb: what's the error?
[12:59] <HiddenKnowledge> OttifantSir: I think that would count as advertising, haha. Since I help running it.
[12:59] <chalcedny> bazhang, thanks :)
[13:00] <HiddenKnowledge> OttifantSir: Just google "free webhost"
[13:00] <tensorpudding> OneMillionDollar: I don't believe it's difficult to configure Apache to that effect, it probably only involves changing a single line
[13:00] <c3l> !lamp | OneMillionDollard
[13:01] <c3l> chalcedny: take a look at the software 'ffmpeg' really good for converting media files etc
[13:02] <tensorpudding> OneMillionDollar: I doubt your machine even has a public-routable IP, anyway
[13:02] <Stellarium-> Lamp is cool I run it on a PS3
[13:02] <MarcRichter> moetunes, ubottu : I Guess "checkinstall" isn't what I need, since I don't install the packages out of the source by "make install". I'm first downloading the sources by issuing "apt-get -y source php5". Then I install it's build-dependencies by issuing "apt-get -y build-dep php5". After that, I generate a .deb by issuing "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot" and install this by using dpkg. So, I'm allready using apt and it's database, but somehow apt do
[13:02] <MarcRichter> esn't recognise this when it comes to updates.
[13:03] <jrib> MarcRichter: what do you mean when you say "apt doesn't recognise this"?
[13:03] <thter> im trying to make a partition but Gparted is saying the device "is apparently in use by the system". what does this mean?
[13:04] <jrib> thter: unmount it
[13:04] <room> thter: mount -l
[13:04] <thter> jrib, done
[13:04] <moetunes> MarcRichter:  there's something in apt which will let you exclude packages from updating but I can't remember it since I've never used it - I'm sure bazhang or someone will know
[13:05] <thter> jrib, it was unmounted
[13:05] <bazhang> moetunes, pinning
[13:05] <jrib> thter: give more details then
[13:05] <bazhang> !pinning
[13:05] <moetunes> bazhang:  thnx - soory to interrupt - could you explain it to MarcRichter pls?
[13:05] <thter> I was following a guide to do some kind of encryption on the drive, jrib
[13:05] <moetunes> sorry even
[13:06] <bazhang> moetunes, there's a link :)
[13:06] <moetunes> !pinning
[13:06] <moetunes> MarcRichter:  ^^
[13:06] <MarcRichter> jrib: When I install this packet and issue an "apt-get dist-upgrade" afterwards, apt wants to install the PHP Packages out of the repo and overwrites my custom build ones.
[13:07] <MarcRichter> jrib: It doesn't recognise that they ARE allready installed and up-to-date, but custom-build.
[13:07] <jrib> MarcRichter: apt installs the latest version available in the repositories, if that's not what you want, you need to tell it so
[13:07] <thter> jrib, http://mazeoflies.com/2008/06/09/ubuntu-hard-drive-encryption-with-external-key
[13:07] <jrib> MarcRichter: pastebin "apt-cache policy PACKAGE"
[13:07] <jrib> thter: you're sure the drive is not in use?
[13:07] <Stellarium-> thter: how is your partitioning?
[13:08] <thter> jrib, how could it possibly be in use?
[13:08] <jrib> thter: swap... or mounted...
[13:08] <HiddenKnowledge> Lol.
[13:08] <moetunes> !lol
[13:08] <HiddenKnowledge> moetunes: Sorry about that.
[13:09] <moetunes> HiddenKnowledge:  it's ok - just a pet peeve here :]
[13:09] <Stellarium-> that was confusing
[13:09] <thter> jrib, it's not swap or mounted
[13:09] <jrib> thter: what's the output of « mount »?
[13:10] <thter> jrib, it's not showing up in there
[13:10] <MarcRichter> jrib: But didn't I install the latest version by building it from the sources I get by issuing "apt-get -y source php5"?
[13:10] <jrib> thter: pastebin the actual output
[13:10] <thter> jrib, i can't
[13:10] <MarcRichter> jrib: And I don't know what you mean by "pastebin "apt-cache policy PACKAGE""
[13:10] <jrib> MarcRichter: I don't know what you did, pastebin the output of the command
[13:10] <jrib> MarcRichter: run the command in a terminal
[13:11] <jrib> thter: because?
[13:11] <thter> jrib, its on another pc
[13:11] <MarcRichter> jrib: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, OK, you want me to send my output to pastebin. Allright :)
[13:11] <jrib> thter: so go to that pc?
[13:11] <thter> i cant post it ok
[13:11] <jrib> thter: ok...
[13:12] <diggan> !lol
[13:12] <HiddenKnowledge> diggan: Eehm, ok..
[13:12] <diggan> HiddenKnowledge, yep :)

[13:14] <ilu-tg> hello all, where is the default install directory if installing virtualbox from a debuan/ubuntu package (.deb)? I somehow lost the menu entry and want to add the icon again, which is most presumably in the install directory
[13:14] <thter> jrib, i've already told you the drive is not listed in the output
[13:14] <NeoCicak> hi all....... i'm trying to setup ruby on rails on my ubuntu, and following the steps to install rvm........  can anyone tell me what does   "bash < <( curl .......... )" does?
[13:14] <jrib> ilu-tg: dpkg -L PACKAGE  should give you a hint
[13:14] <jrib> thter: that's fine, I can't help
[13:15] <thter> why do you insist on seeing the output, nosey?
[13:15] <thter> i cant post it
[13:15] <thter> its on another pc
[13:15] <HiddenKnowledge> thter: Because he can't ehlp you without it.
[13:15] <jrib> thter: because it's my free time and pastebin of output is always the best way for me to understand what your situation is
[13:15] <HiddenKnowledge> help*
[13:16] <thter> im trying to make a partition but Gparted is saying the device "is apparently in use by the system". does anyone know this means?
[13:16] <ilu-tg> jrib;how can I use wildcards, such as Virtual*, since I don't know anymore which package exactly I installed
[13:16] <Stellarium-> paste bin is much cleaner then just plunking up the words in channel
[13:16] <bazhang> thter, its mounted
[13:16] <ActionParsnip> thter: if you run: mount   are trhere partitions mounted on the drive?
[13:17] <thter> bazhang, it is not mounted
[13:17] <jrib> ilu-tg: I don't think you can there, but you can with dpkg -l and then use that output to determine the name of the package
[13:17] <thter> ActionParsnip, no
[13:17] <c3l> thter: this isnt a solution, rather a way to bypass the proble. boot up with a livecd and fix your partitions, that will most certainly work
[13:18] <ActionParsnip> thter: if you boot to live cd then you can definately do it there :)
[13:18] <thter> im on a live cd now
[13:18] <Stellarium-> thter: fdisk -l
[13:19] <room> thter: mount -l  ?
[13:19] <thter> yeah that returns nothing
[13:19] <thter> mount -l i already did and the drive in question is not listed there
[13:20] <Stellarium-> are you disks sd0 hd0 md0
[13:20] <room> thter: fdisk need root prv
[13:20] <Stellarium-> try sudo mdadm --stop /dev/xd0
[13:20] <ilu-tg> jrib; thanks
[13:20] <thter> room, if it's listed in fdisk does that mean it's mounted?
[13:21] <room> thter: I don't think so
[13:22] <[KS]> anyone care to suggest good realtime statistics for ubuntu server? (by statistics I mean server monitoring, cpu, ram, hdd, network, database, ...)
[13:22] <Stellarium-> thter: cat /etc/mtab
[13:22] <c3l> thter: no
[13:22] <HiddenKnowledge> Uh.
[13:22] <Stellarium-> pid usually tells you processes
[13:22] <room> thter: what's the filesystem for the drive in question
[13:22] <greppy> [KS]: info !cacti
[13:23] <HiddenKnowledge> What do those things do if I may ask? The floodbots?
[13:23] <Stellarium-> flood... bots hm
[13:23] <bazhang> HiddenKnowledge, prevent excess flood
[13:23] <jrib> HiddenKnowledge: they flood, don't you see?
[13:23] <HiddenKnowledge> jrib: That's what I thought..
[13:23] <[KS]> greppy: Isn't cacti kinda "too big"
[13:23] <jrib> HiddenKnowledge: they do more good than bad in the long run though :)
[13:23] <greppy> you didn't say you wanted it small :)
[13:24] <greppy> [KS]: htop, iptraf, itop
[13:24] <[KS]> Ideally, there would be web version of htop
[13:24] <HiddenKnowledge> jrib: Ok..
[13:24] <[KS]> :)
[13:24] <bazhang> [KS], iotop ?
[13:24] <Pici> [KS]: munin perhaps?
[13:24] <[KS]> munin?
[13:24] <greppy> [KS]: phpsysinfo
[13:25] <Pici> [KS]: Sample munin: http://munin.ping.uio.no/ping.uio.no/colosseum.ping.uio.no.html
[13:25] <Pici> [KS]: Its a set of perl scripts that populate rrd graphs.   I use a custom set for tracking IRC stuff.
[13:26] <[KS]> Pici thanks
[13:26] <room> thter: mount -l will list all mounted filesystems, I wonder if there's problems with your filesystem
[13:26] <[KS]> but I think I'll go with greppy's suggestion since I am already verse in php
[13:26] <thter> room can i pm you
[13:26] <room> thter: ok
[13:27] <Stellarium-> room: get a room!
[13:27] <moetunes> room is a room
[13:27] <Stellarium-> that's what she said
[13:27] <room> Stellarium-: haha
[13:27] <HiddenKnowledge> Cool ontopic chatter.
[13:27] <bazhang> !ot
[13:28] <Stellarium-> you're just angry you were chastized earlier
[13:30] <MarcRichter> bazhang , moetunes : Thanks for the pinning - tip. This solved another problem I had , but seems to not be the solution I need for PHP here :)
[13:30] <ActionParsnip> Stellarium-: how chastized?
[13:30] <zamba> when trying to upgrade from jaunty to karmic i get lots of 404s.. for instance on libio-compress-perl/libio-compress-perl_2.020-0ubuntu1_all.deb
[13:30] <Stellarium-> ActionParsnip: in the .conf of /etc
[13:30] <zamba> i'm issuing do-release-upgrade
[13:30] <Stellarium-> I mean chmoded
[13:31] <shadi> i've a problem i cant watch youtube videos
[13:31] <ActionParsnip> Stellarium-: ;)
[13:31] <Ken8521> zamba, 9.04 is EOL 10/10.. maybe it was taken off on the first?
[13:31] <iflema> zamba did you sudo apt-get update first?
[13:31] <tensorpudding> shadi: i assume you have either installed flash player, or are using a web browser which supports <video> and WebM?
[13:31] <zamba> iflema: yes
[13:31] <bazhang> Ken8521, 10/23
[13:32] <Ken8521> ah ok.
[13:32] <iflema> zamba errors after that?
[13:32] <c3l> !codecs | shadi
[13:32] <Martens1984> How do I connect my Ubuntu machine to a Windows AD? I keep getting the same error
[13:32] <zamba> iflema: most def. same bunch of errors
[13:32] <shadi> tensorpudding: from can i get plz send me a link to download it
[13:33] <Stellarium-> Martens1984: What is Windows AD?
[13:33] <nozes> Bom Dia!
[13:33] <iflema> zamba change the download sources I suggest...
[13:33] <iceroot> Stellarium-: active directory
[13:33] <ActionParsnip> Stellarium-: active directory
[13:33] <Martens1984> Active Directory
[13:33] <zamba> http://pastebin.com/aUbVGB0b
[13:33] <c3l> shadi: I sent you a link via ubottu, read that. the package you need is ubuntu-restricted-extras, but I sugges you read a bit about it
[13:33] <zamba> iflema: tried both se.archive and fi.archive
[13:33] <a5h15h> how to change the variable doc-view-continuous to a non-nil value in emacs?
[13:33] <suji> hi
[13:34] <zamba> i'll try us.archive and see if that works
[13:34] <Oli``> Anyone here know the binary for the sound preferences dialogue?
[13:34] <tensorpudding> a5h15h: run (setq doc-view-continuous t) in *scratch*, like i said before
[13:35] <Oli``> got it: gnome-volume-control
[13:35] <ActionParsnip> Oli``: is you run: alacarte  you can see what command the item in the menu runs
[13:35] <zamba> oh, that worked
[13:35] <zamba> using us.archive now
[13:35] <Oli``> ActionParsnip: yeah that's what I did
[13:35] <iflema> zamba not sure why mutiple sources have fauiled... may try them again another day
[13:35] <HiddenKnowledge> ActionParsnip: Oh, thanks. :)
[13:36] <WXZ> I installed ubuntu on hdd1, then windows on hdd2, then reinstalled grub2 on hdd1
[13:36] <a5h15h> tensorpudding, how is it to be run?
[13:36] <WXZ> and it's not detecting windows
[13:39] <MarcRichter> jrib: Here's my pastebin you asked for: http://pastebin.com/4L1uJaak
[13:39] <MarcRichter> jrib: As you might notice, the output before my self-installed version and the repo-version isn't differing.
[13:41] <tensorpudding> a5h15h: open up the *scratch* buffer, put that code in, put the cursor right after the closing paren, then do C-j
[13:42] <a5h15h> tensorpudding, k
[13:42] <iflema> zamba its not the best idea to go mixing sources... only if you must... some servers are slightly out of sysnc and this can boggle the package mananger
[13:43] <tensorpudding> a5h15h: it can also be added to the ~/.emacs file
[13:43] <jony> hi how do i install a conon ip1200 printer on ubuntu if the cannon site had no driver for linux?
[13:43] <badp> jony, have you tried just plugging it in?
[13:44] <badp> most printers work like that (and if yours doesn't, I'm afraid I don't know enough to help you)
[13:44] <jony> wel no its i dont have the computer with me
[13:44] <badp> network printer?
[13:45] <jrib> MarcRichter: it's the same version, and the repositories have preference.  Did you actually make changes to the package?
[13:45] <jony> ok ill get more info first and return jony out..
[13:45] <jrib> !away > Liammm
[13:47] <MarcRichter> jrib: Yes. I "sed'ed" debian/rules like this:
[13:47] <MarcRichter> cat debian/rules | sed 's/--with-gd=shared,\/usr --enable-gd-native-ttf \\/--with-gd=shared --enable-gd-native-ttf \\/g' > debian/rules_2 ; mv debian/rules_2 debian/rules
[13:47] <yaseen> hi guys
[13:48] <yaseen> who knows how to setup wireless wpa in ubuntu?
[13:48] <yaseen> i have wpa suppliciant installed
[13:48] <jrib> MarcRichter: then you should increment the version (dch -i) and append something like "~marcrichter1" to the version number as well.  Or just use pinning.  The latter is nicer because apt will try to upgrade it if there's actually a NEW version in the repositories, so you'll know to rebuild
[13:48] <MarcRichter> jrib: This is to use external gdlib, since we need several features from this, as described here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/php5/+bug/39719
[13:48] <badp> yaseen: uh, what flavour of ubuntu?
[13:48] <sreeju> a black background comes to my cairo dock. how to remove it?
[13:48] <yaseen> i use lucid lynx
[13:48] <sreeju> please help me
[13:48] <ActionParsnip> yaseen: its part of network manager to use wpa (assuming your wifi chip supports it)
[13:48] <badp> yeah, but desktop or server?
[13:49] <yaseen> desktop
[13:49] <jrib> MarcRichter: and check out the "-i" switch to sed :P
[13:49] <yaseen> 32 bit
[13:49] <badp> then don't mess with wpa_supplicant
[13:49] <badp> use the network manager icon in your top bar
[13:49] <yaseen> the problem is wpa networks show in network manager
[13:49] <yaseen> but when i click them nothnig happend
[13:50] <badp> yaseen: check the system log for that
[13:50] <badp> Sys → Admin → Log File Viewer
[13:50] <MarcRichter> jrib: But - when I install my package like I have and use pinning NOW, then apt tells about a kept back update today allready, since it keeps back the repo one. How could I not miss an update with this?
[13:51] <vinok> hi guys just a quick question, do u know any software counter part for nokia pc suite for ubuntu?
[13:51] <badp> the messages should be sent to daemon.log
[13:51] <yaseen> uhum
[13:51] <MarcRichter> jrib: Thanks for the "sed -i" - tip :)
[13:51] <yaseen> one another question
[13:51] <badp> vinok: just plug the mobile in :)
[13:51] <yaseen> i can connect to wep
[13:51] <yaseen> ?does this mean that my driver should work for wpa too
[13:51] <badp> or pair it via bluetooth
[13:51] <yaseen> ?
[13:52] <dotnetted> Hey all - Has anyone in here successfully installed a linksys wusb600n wireless card on 10.04? - It shows up in ifconfig/iwconfig but can't find anything on scans and "rt2x00usb_vendor_request" spams the daemon log -- Thanks for any help, this is taking hours ;/
[13:52] <yaseen> and it's not a driver issue?
[13:52] <jrib> MarcRichter: hmm, I don't remember apt acting like that, but I tend to use the other method and avoid pinning for this situation anyway
[13:53] <Stellarium-> dotnetted: did you iwlist device
[13:54] <dotnetted> Stellarium: yep - but not with all the options
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> dotnetted: can you give the output of: sudo lshw -C network   use: http://pastie.org  to give the output
[13:55] <dotnetted> ActionParsnip: yep - coming right up
[13:55] <vinok> badp, basically what i want to do is do a sync or upgrade the mobile. using PC suite alternative for linux. any software you can recommend?
[13:55] <sreeju> please answer me
[13:55] <sreeju> nobody there?
[13:56] <HiddenKnowledge> sreeju: No nobody is here, ask your question and wait..
[13:56] <tdn> I need a program that will allow me to easily keep track of my money spendings. I am looking for something like a simple general ledger in which I can enter the receipts (description, amount, price, store) and then end month I can see what I spend the most on and in which stores.
[13:56] <tdn> This could probably be made in a spreadsheet, but I am not sure.
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> sreeju: hello
[13:56] <Stellarium-> sreeju: did you startx
[13:57] <tdn> I have looked at GnuCash but it is way too complicate for this.
[13:57] <ActionParsnip> tdn: gnucash
[13:57] <dotnetted> ActionParsnip: http://pastie.org/1207600 - I have the wlan1 section commented out right now in /etc/interfaces though
[13:57] <c3l> tdn: gnucash is really worth the time you put in to understand it
[13:57] <tdn> ActionParsnip, it must be much easier to use. I think gnucash is overkill for this.
[13:58] <dotnetted> but wlan1 is the USB adapter I'm trying to work with
[13:58] <AbhiJit> tdn, home bank
[13:58] <tdn> c3l, it is not so much that it is not easy to understand. I have a background with doing accounting, but gnucash does not seem easy to enter receipts in.
[13:58] <ChristianAdamski> Hi, Question: I have a laptop running 10.04 - what device would I need to skip the built-in speakers and instead play my music on HiFi via (W-)LAN?
[13:59] <dotnetted> ActionParsnip: /etc/network/interfaces --> http://pastie.org/1207604
[13:59] <ActionParsnip> dotnetted: having 2 interfaces on the same subnet causes issues in linux
[13:59] <dotnetted> ActionParsnip: ah
[13:59] <AbhiJit> tdn, try this http://homebank.free.fr/
[13:59] <c3l> tdn: I dont see how it could be easier, try asking in #gnucash on how to do it most effectively
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> dotnetted: also, as you are using static IP you will need to manually populate /etc/resolv.conf
[14:00] <dotnetted> ActionParsnip: I don't really need the other PCI adapter - I just need it working to google how to get the USB working heh
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> dotnetted: just: sudo ifdown interfacename    and it will die :)
[14:00] <a5h15h> tensorpudding, it seems the variable "doc-view-continuous" was introduced in 23.2...i'm running 23.1.1

[14:07] <sebastien_> == I have a wireless keyboard and when I press 1 time the shift key I get 2 uppercase letters (when I write quickly). How to resolve this issue? ==
[14:08] <Guest20349> Hello, does somebody know how to get things started with hdmi calel?
[14:08] <manateeUser> sebastien: Adjust your keyboard delay. :)
[14:08] <manateeUser> sebastien: Search "keyboard setup" in menu.
[14:08] <sebastien_> manatee, the issue come just with the shift key
[14:09] <manateeUser> sebasiten: Maybe your shift key is broken?
[14:09] <Guest20349> I have trouble to use my display per hdmi cable

[14:09] <bmichaelsen> Hi all, is there any recommended way to get ntp clock updates on ubuntu? ntpdate always answers "no servers can be used, existing"
[14:09] <Endafy> hey my computer has NVIDIA MCP51 chipset, and the audio is skippy
[14:09] <nha> I have just recently upgraded to 10.04 (from 9.10), and now the volume control thingy in the panel is no longer there. I can still access volume control via System -> Preferences, but I see no way to get the panel button back, in particular none of the gadgets in the Add to Panel... dialog have anything to do with volume control. Any idea what I can do?
[14:09] <Endafy> how do I fix it
[14:10] <Endafy> its so very annoying
[14:10] <a5h15h> tensorpudding, thanks for the help...have a nice day
[14:11] <ActionParsnip> Endafy: what is the output of: dpkg -l | grep alsa | head -n 1; lsb_release -c
[14:12] <Endafy> ii  alsa-base                             1.0.22.1+dfsg-0ubuntu3                          ALSA driver configuration files Codename:	lucid
[14:12] <Nadav> hey
[14:12] <Nadav> I wanna start with linux, so I downloaded linux
[14:12] <Nadav> is the 32/64 ver. diffrence is about the memory utilization?
[14:12] <nha> Never mind, I found a forum thread given the right combination of keywords
[14:12] <Nadav> or there is more to it?
[14:13] <hutch> Is there an easy way to upgrade from ubuntu 10.4 to 10.10rc?
[14:13] <Ken8521> Nadav, only partly... it also depends on processor(obviously, 32 vs 64bit)... also, some hardware drivers may not be available(or as stable) as 32bit.
[14:13] <Endafy> sudo apt-get upgrade -r
[14:13] <Nadav> Ken8521 so for a new user
[14:13] <Nadav> ud recommend 32bit?
[14:13] <Ken8521> Nadav, if you'er going for max stability, i'd recommend 32bit.. but i run 32bit on everything
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> Endafy: try: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ricotz/unstable; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade
[14:13] <Nadav> alright
[14:13] <hutch> Endafy THANKS
[14:13] <ActionParsnip> Endafy: will give you alsa 1.0.23
[14:14] <Endafy> aha so it will fix it
[14:14] <a5h15h> how to upgrade a particular package say...from emacs 23.1.1 to 23.2?
[14:15] <hutch> Is apt-get better than aptitude?
[14:15] <tensorpudding> a5h15h: 23.1.1 is the latest version available in ubuntu's packages
[14:15] <manateeUser> hutch: Aptitude is better. :)
[14:15] <tensorpudding> a5h15h: you'd have to track someone's ppa probably
[14:15] <hutch> manateeUser, thought so
[14:15] <trelayne> Hey all, I need to know the simplest way to set up a camera to record a portion of the  night sky and using pattern recognition, be able to identify keyframes where major changes take place so that I don't have to zip through it...
[14:15] <ActionParsnip> Endafy: it'll certainly help
[14:15] <Ken8521> apt-get is easier to type
[14:15] <tensorpudding> a5h15h: or maybe emacs-snapshot
[14:15] <BazGee> Hi guys I uploaded the mp4 from cotulla to youtube as I noticed a few of you were having problems viewing it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_HWhG-nrzk
[14:15] <ActionParsnip> manateeUser: its not outright better, both have advantages
[14:16] <hutch> Isn't ubuntu getting rid of apt-get?
[14:16] <llutz> ActionParsnip: what are the advantages of apt-get?
[14:16] <tensorpudding> a5h15h: err, scratch that, emacs-snapshot is really out of date
[14:16] <tensorpudding> hutch: Getting rid of apt-get? I've not heard of that.
[14:17] <Endafy> ActionParsnip, thanks man I hope it fixes it, it is certainly the most annoying bug I have ever ran into, my audio worked fine until one of these updates and I was unsure how to fix it
[14:17] <hutch> in favour of aptitude
[14:17] <manateeUser> ActionParsnip: I use Aptitude always. :)
[14:17] <bazhang> hutch, the reverse
[14:17] <ActionParsnip> llutz: if aptitude was outright better then apt-get would not be included in the distro
[14:17] <tensorpudding> Pretty sure that apt-get can do things that aptitude can't
[14:17] <dotnetted-laptop> After rebooting, my USB wifi adapter has dissapeared heh - wlan1 no longer shows w/ "ifconfig -a"...
[14:17] <hutch> bazhang, surely not
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> manateeUser: doesn't make it better, I only use apt-get as do the official guides online
[14:19] <tensorpudding> i think both names are not that great
[14:19] <tensorpudding> apt-get/cache etc. is hard to remember, and aptitude feels too long
[14:19] <karansac> Hi everyone
[14:20] <llutz> ActionParsnip: the reason not to use aptitude by default is just the cd-space it uses. so thats no answer to my question
[14:20] <tdn> c3l, well, #gnucash has 3 users.
[14:20] <badp> I love aptitude, but I won't complain so long as it is an apt-get call away I guess
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> llutz: i am unsure but I'm sure canonical have a reason why and thats a logical explanation
[14:21] <Endafy> I love synaptic and add/remove
[14:21] <c3l> tdn: no, 25 users
[14:21] <Endafy> terminal is dead lolz jk
[14:21] <tensorpudding> the software center is the first usable gui package manager i can recall using
[14:21] <c3l> tdn: you havent joined it
[14:21] <hutch> Be back in 1 min
[14:21] <llutz> ActionParsnip: my question just refers to _your_ " both have advantages"
[14:22] <snikkerz> :llutz: would you say that aptitude has advantages?
[14:22] <ActionParsnip> llutz: they do, its logical. There is no single best software for any one task, they just excel in different way
[14:23] <llutz> snikkerz: it hat, at least the better depends-handling
[14:23] <badp> I don't know, aptitude has a tougher time in sorting broken packages out
[14:23] <badp> however, aptitude gives much more information when handling that
[14:23] <llutz> snikkerz: and of course, the ncourses frontend for those who like
[14:23] <ActionParsnip> llutz: if aptitude could do EVERYTHING better than apt-get then apt-get would be removed as it would be obsolete, but its not , its right there in a default install of Maverick
[14:23] <snikkerz> :llutz: I have never had an issue with apt-get getting the dependencies I needed... Might just be luck though I guess.
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> llutz: so there MUST be some advantage of apt-get over aptitude
[14:24] <badp> ActionParsnip: actually the guys at Debian support aptitude above apt-get :)
[14:24] <ActionParsnip> badp: ubuntu isnt debian
[14:24] <llutz> snikkerz: don't get me wrong, i don't say apt-get is bad. i'm using debian since 15 yrs but i don't see anything apt-get could do better than aptitude
[14:24] <badp> Just saying things aren't as clear cut as you put them
[14:25] <tensorpudding> the debian folk were the ones that wrote the apt tools though
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> badp: it's simple deduction
[14:25] <manateeUser> ActionParsnip: But Ubuntu need Debian.
[14:25] <mohan1111> HI
[14:25] <c3l> llutz: apt-get is generally considered easier to use, not that spammy and just does what you want, without you having to interfer with it. but I agree aptitude might be better for those who want more controll
[14:25] <ActionParsnip> manateeUser: sure but it still doesnt make it debian, its ubuntu
[14:25] <badp> Yeah, the mantainers of both prefer aptitude, hence aptitude is better :P
[14:25] <ylmfos> hi
[14:25] <badp> that's logic
[14:25] <Endafy> ActionParsnip, wow it fixed it ty so much
[14:25] <ylmfos> pls anyone help me
[14:26] <Endafy> oh nvm I have to reboot
[14:26] <ylmfos> i need for ylmf os
[14:26] <bazhang> ylmfos, using ylmfos ?
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> badp: if the maintainers preferred opera would you ditch your browser and use opera (assuming you don't already)
[14:26] <ActionParsnip> Endafy: np bro :)
[14:26] <bazhang> ylmfos, thats not supported here
[14:26] <ylmfos> hello
[14:26] <badp> the maintainers prefer firefox and I ditch it for chromium
[14:26] <ylmfos> anybudy els
[14:26] <ylmfos> help me
[14:26] <mohan1111> I have my friend's netbook without cd drive, bootable usb, nothing. How do I install ubuntu into it?
[14:26] <bazhang> ylmfos, its not supported here
[14:26] <badp> as I said, so long as it's one apt-get call away I'm not very bothered
[14:26] <manateeUser> ylmfos: Well, it's Ubuntu channel, if you real have problem, just ask. Don't ask for ask.
[14:27] <funkyweasel> My dream of a non-buggy spreadsheet on ubuntu continues to be thwarted.  Unlike OOo Calc, Gnumeric doesn't abjectly crash at random every 20-30 minutes, but it does stop accepting keyboard input - so I need to save and reopen the app.  Any ideas what could be happening?
[14:27] <snikkerz> :mohan1111: so you can't boot off usb?
[14:27] <bazhang> mohan1111, all netbooks boot usb
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> badp: but would yuo automaticlly, on hearing the news, change browser?
[14:27] <Pici> manateeUser: We don't support the 'ylmfos' distro here
[14:27] <snikkerz> :mohan1111: or you just don't have a bootable usb with you.
[14:27] <ylmfos> i need ubuntu os
[14:27] <bazhang> manateeUser, ylmfos is not supported
[14:27] <badp> Upon hearing the news I tried it and I switched.
[14:27] <snikkerz> if my friends jump off a bridge, I generaly do too.
[14:27] <ylmfos> why
[14:27] <ActionParsnip> funkyweasel: could you zoho or googedocs too :)
[14:27] <badp> Not sure what your point is there?
[14:27] <Daniel_swe> Hi! I need some help here, please excuse my english flaws. I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my toshiba L650H, i have tried with both 10.04 and 10.10, but the same problem occurs. I get to the purple screen where you can choose things such as, ''try and install''. But when i click on Install all i get is a bunch of white text on a black background. A friend is thinking it's kernelpanic. Is there something that i can do?
[14:27] <ylmfos> ok
[14:27] <manateeUser> bazhang: I know, just told ylmfos don't just "ask for ask. "
[14:28] <badp> anyway, bbl, checking if kubuntu also has this bug
[14:28] <ylmfos> u support me for ubuntu
[14:28] <ActionParsnip> badp: just because "the developers use it" doesn't make it "best" or "better"
[14:28] <ylmfos> tell me
[14:28] <bazhang> ylmfos, then install u buntu
[14:28] <ylmfos> what can i do
[14:28] <badp> I didn't say the _developers_, I said the _distribution_, ActionParsnip
[14:28] <Endafy> wow ylmfos looks just like XP, can someone say copyright infringement
[14:28] <funkyweasel> ActionParsnip: GoogleDocs - would rather not, if Gnumeric buggy behaviour gets too much will look at Zoho
[14:28] <bazhang> badp, lets get back on topic please
[14:28] <llutz> most things can be reduced to users "herd instinct"
[14:28] <ylmfos> pls give me link
[14:28] <badp> bazhang: sure.
[14:28] <BluesKaj> Hiyas
[14:29] <bazhang> ylmfos, www.ubuntu.com
[14:29] <manateeUser> Endafy: Then just copy icon and screenshot.
[14:29] <manateeUser> ylmfos: Why not use Google search it?
[14:29] <manateeUser> ylmfos: If you want install Ubuntu.
[14:29] <badp> I need help with attaching this bug to the right packagas/projects
[14:29] <badp> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/656855
[14:29] <bazhang> manateeUser, we dont tell users to google it
[14:29] <ylmfos> yes
[14:29] <badp> *packages
[14:29] <ActionParsnip> badp: also look who is 2nd highest contributor on launchpad: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+topcontributors and I have never used apt-get nor advised it#

[14:29] <ActionParsnip> gotcha Pici
[14:30] <manateeUser> bazhang: Those simple problem can fix self.
[14:30] <bazhang> manateeUser, please dont do it in future
[14:30] <badp> grats for that ActionParsnip, I'm still not sure how that is relevant
[14:30] <manateeUser> bazhang: It's not reason.
[14:30] <Daniel_swe> Hi! I need some help here, please excuse my english flaws. I'm trying to install Ubuntu on my toshiba L650H, i have tried with both 10.04 and 10.10, but the same problem occurs.

[14:31] <mohan1111> bazhang: It can't. I don't see such an option in bios setup after i press f9. It only says "hdd and network ethernet" under boot order
[14:31] <badp> Daniel_swe: reading the message error would help
[14:31] <bazhang> Daniel_swe, md5 the iso?
[14:31] <funkyweasel> ActionParsnip: And a full time job?  Nice one.
[14:31] <bazhang> mohan1111, what netbook
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> funkyweasel: at work now :)
[14:31] <Daniel_swe> Md5?
[14:31] <bazhang> !md5 | Daniel_swe
[14:31] <mohan1111> bazhang: Hp 2133
[14:31] <Pici> Daniel_swe: Try using the alternate CD to install perhaps?
[14:31] <ActionParsnip> funkyweasel: putty + irssi = uber!
[14:32] <Pici> badp: #ubuntu-bugs may be able to help, as well as #ubuntu+1 (since you're running maverick)
[14:32] <funkyweasel> ActionParsnip: That's way too much dedication for me.  :) And, oh no, ZoHo's also online.  Saddening!  Ah well, at least Gnumeric is not losing work like OOo was.
[14:32] <sunil_> hi, can anyone help me out about tomcat
[14:32] <badp> Pici: it was a problem in 10.04 as well :) I'll try #ubuntu-bugs though
[14:32] <dobak> elo
[14:32] <badp> thanks
[14:33] <ActionParsnip> funkyweasel: monitoring is quiet so I fill my time, also have IRC client on my android phone so I occupy time on the way home too :)
[14:33] <cablop> i wonder how bad is the performance of an encrypted swap vs unencrypted swap
[14:33] <gyyg> I can't get flash to work. Any suggestions?
[14:33] <manateeUser> sunil_ Please ask you *real* question first time, then other people can help you quicker. :)
[14:33] <Daniel_swe> The text ends with ''Kernel_thread_helper+0x6/0x10'' if that helps
[14:33] <cablop> gyyg, try another flash package
[14:34] <gyyg> cablop, I have installed all of the suggested ones
[14:34] <cablop> try a different browser
[14:34] <llutz> cablop: swap is slow as hell, so the difference will be marginal if you don't use ancient hardware
[14:34] <gyyg> I have tried firefox and chrome
[14:34] <cablop> i don't know if still thereś the stanbdalone player
[14:35] <cablop> llutz not ancient hardware, but a netbook
[14:35] <llutz> cablop: and it constantly uses swap? add RAM then
[14:35] <cablop> gyyg, and what is the problem you face? flash player does not run?
[14:35] <juk> I had network-manager unchecked in startup apps, why it appeared to be running?
[14:35] <funkyweasel> The *real* trick to technical questions on IRC is to make it specific enough that folks don't say, "Don't ask about asking", non-trivial enough not to be told "Google for it", whilst not making it so specific it gets ignored unless someone happens to have had the *exact same problem as you*.
[14:35] <hutch> sudo apt-get upgrade -r returned 'r not known'. Will sudo aptitude full upgrade get me from 10.4 to 10.10rc?
[14:35] <funkyweasel> Actually *very hard*
[14:35] <Pici> hutch: Please see the topic in #ubuntu+1 for upgrade instructions.
[14:35] <cablop> llutz: i think the problem is the kcryptd bottleneck, but i moved to an unencrypted swap then i hit the bottleneck more often than before
[14:36] <cablop> sigh
[14:36] <Pici> hutch: Unless you're not trying to upgrade to maverick, in that case, please clarify what you're trying to do.
[14:36] <gyyg> cablop, at first it was telling me that a plugin wasn't installed. It gave me three different options. now it no longer prompts that, but the flash video box in the browser is just black
[14:36] <bazhang> mohan1111, the mininote will certainly boot from usb. sounds like you got a non-bootable usb stick
[14:36] <hutch> Pici I want to upgrade to Maverick but I thought it was rc atm
[14:37] <mohan1111> bazhang: It does not show up on boot device order ....
[14:37] <Pici> hutch: Thats correct.  Support for Maverick is in #ubuntu+1, the instructions on how to upgrade are linked in the release notes in the topic.
[14:38] <hutch> Pici I have just installed 10.4 + fully updated. I don't want to have to burn and fresh install maverick
[14:39] <hutch> Will check out #ubuntu+1
[14:41] <mohan1111> bazhang: is there a way to connect to my computer and then install ubuntu from this computer to that?
[14:41] <i9t7io[> #ubuntu-ru
[14:41] <fred_> test
[14:42] <snickerz> your test was successful
[14:42] <WXZ> grub2 won't see windows xp on another harddrive
[14:43] <snickerz> :wxz: is it another hard rive or logical partiton?
[14:43] <WXZ> both
[14:44] <snickerz> both on same controller
[14:44] <bazhang> mohan1111, you need to hit F9 to bring up the usb boot option
[14:44] <juk> windows 8p
[14:44] <WXZ> both as in on another hard drive, in another logical partition
[14:44] <WXZ> I guess the second one is obvious from the first but :|
[14:45] <cablop> gyyg check for flash un software manager, then uninstall it
[14:45] <Benoms> could someone please give me a hand.. i've just installed windows 7 on a second partition after ubuntu and now i can't seem to load grub back on :(
[14:45] <cablop> or go to synaptic manager and select completely uninstall the flash packages
[14:45] <cablop> then reinstall them
[14:45] <manateeUser> Benoms: Best install Windows first, then install Ubuntu.
[14:45] <cablop> benoms i think theres a smart or supergrub live cd out there, try that
[14:45] <Benoms> find /boot/grub/stage1 says Error15: File not found
[14:46] <Benoms> ok cablop.. ill look that up. thanks
[14:46] <cablop> Benoms, that's cause ubuntu 10.04 no longer use grub1 it uses grub 2
[14:46] <egsome> Benoms, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[14:46] <Benoms> cablop and egsome: thank you!

[14:50] <iulikkk> ok
[14:50] <egsome> iulikkk, Then change the `connector` in the `input` tab.
[14:50] <cablop> acer_:  ni hao

[14:52] <iulikkk> is that right?
[14:52] <egsome> acer_, 请尝试加入 #ubuntu-cn
[14:52] <acer_> yes
[14:52] <cablop> acer_: duibuqi
[14:52] <bazhang> manateeUser, please chat elsewhere
[14:53] <acer_> everywhere
[14:53] <gyyg> how can I check if my ubuntu is 64 bit?
[14:53] <AbhiJit> !manual | Xeno_XC
[14:53] <AbhiJit> gyyg, uname -a
[14:54] <egsome> Xeno_XC, Just download the font file, then open it by double-click, then click the `install font` button.
[14:54] <iulikkk> ok egsome changed connector
[14:54] <egsome> iulikkk, Now working ?
[14:54] <cablop> acer_: 去 ubuntu-cn 他们说中文啊
[14:54] <Xeno_XC> egsome, does this apply only to TT fonts or opentype or both?
[14:54] <acer_> 终于见到个说中文的啦
[14:54] <greenday> it's meaningless if nobody can read your messages
[14:54] <iulikkk> no doesnt work
[14:54] <acer_> 知道啦
[14:55] <egsome> Xeno_XC, Not sure, but I installed hundreds of fonts over time, and all with the same method.
[14:55] <egsome> iulikkk, What is the connector you chose ?
[14:55] <Xeno_XC> egsome, okay thanks, will try it
[14:55] <iulikkk> microphone 2
[14:55] <Babbla> i must have typed something incorrectly in my crontab commands... how do i view the error infromation from the command attempting to execute?
[14:56]  * greenday shuts down the mandarin processor in the brain forever
[14:56] <egsome> iulikkk, OK, Make sure the `mute` check box is un-checked above there ..

[14:56] <sresu> Why should one use LTS over Standard release?

[14:56] <Ken8521> sresu, if you're maintaining a bunch of systems on a network, would be one reason
[14:56] <egsome> iulikkk, And the slider should be above 50% for example .
[14:56] <iceroot> sresu: because you want a stable version without big changes over years
[14:56] <intphack7> linux account user | name G:\root
[14:56] <iulikkk> it's unchecked
[14:56] <intphack7> shell access

[14:57] <iulikkk> slider 100%
[14:57] <greenday> sresu: lts is awesome like debian stable
[14:57] <manateeUser> acer_: /join #ubuntu-cn
[14:57] <egsome> iulikkk, Try to speak in the mic, Any signal shown below the slider ?
[14:57] <Ken8521> greenday, i dunno about lts being 'awesome'.. 8.04 sucked.
[14:58] <sresu> Ken8521: Thats really agreeable in cases of LTS Server - What about LTS Desktop?
[14:58] <kw01f> hallo
[14:58] <Ken8521> sresu, same basic concept, 3yrs of support.. makes it a lot easier if you're maintaining a lot of systems on a network.
[14:59] <sresu> iceroot: Standard releases woudn't include much changes?
[14:59] <iulikkk> 2 lines
[14:59] <iulikkk> fixed

[14:59] <egsome> iulikkk, What was the problem ?
[14:59] <kw01f> ich möchte eine Festplatte (mit mehreren Partitionen) sicher löschen, weil ich die verkaufen möchte. Reicht es als Device einfach /dev/sda anzugeben, oder muss ich das für jede Partition gesondert machen (also /dev/sda5, /dev/sda6) usw.?
[14:59] <Ken8521> sresu, sometimes changes between releases are dramatic.. for instance, 8.10-9.04 was abit, as was 9.10-10.04...
[14:59] <iceroot> sresu: but an lts version is supported for a longer range, so on a non-lts version you have to do a major update after 18months
[14:59] <sresu> iceroot: Umm.. actually, I didn't get your point
[14:59] <LjL> !de | kw01f

[15:15] <Benoms> i just recovered my ubuntu install by following this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows but grub2 is not asking me what OS to boot to, it just goes stright into ubuntu.. is there a key i need to press to prompt grub to load?
[15:16] <manateeUser> Benoms: I remember is Left shift. ...
[15:16] <manateeUser> Benoms: IIRC
[15:16] <Benoms> manateeUser: ok ill try that. thanks
[15:17] <Coded1> Benoms, when at the grub menu press "c" then "root(hd0,<1,2,3>)" then "chainloader +1" then "boot"
[15:17] <LSannin_> q looks good there is an error with desktop-file-utils
[15:17] <Benoms> Coded1: the problem is that the grub menu doesn't show. left shift didn't work
[15:17] <Coded1> Benoms, if you type root(hd0, then tab it will show you the partitions availible
[15:17] <Coded1> Benoms, try esc
[15:18] <chu> Don't suppose anyone here uses emacs and screen in conjunction?
[15:18] <Coded1> Benoms, but u have to get it early ... right after your bios screen
[15:19] <Benoms> Coded1: pressed esc constantly.. nothing ;(
[15:20] <Pici> Benoms: The key for grub2 is shift.  Hold it down while you boot.
[15:21] <LSannin_> update-desktop-database symbol lookup error: undefined symbol: g_malloc_n
[15:22] <Benoms> Pici: thanks. when i do shift early I can the word 'Grub' come up then it just loads ubuntu automatically. I think its coz i lost my windows 7 info from the grub.cfg file ;(
[15:23] <Babbla> why would quotes stop a command that otherwise works fine not work in the crontab?
[15:24] <giovanni> ciao a tutti
[15:24] <erUSUL> Babbla: show the command

[15:24] <c3l> what kind of encryption does the alternate install use?
[15:25] <Babbla> erUSUL, if i take out --log-file-format it works fine... if i do that command at the prompt it works fine
[15:26] <erUSUL> Babbla: for cron % is special and you have to scape it http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashFAQ/043
[15:26] <Babbla> erUSUL,  oh damn i knew that and i didn't see it
[15:27] <erUSUL> Babbla: probably cleaner is to make a script with the line in it and call that from cron
[15:27] <Babbla> erUSUL, i was too focused on the ""s
[15:27] <KillGuta> Guys, I'm trying to run an win application through wine which has the resolution different from the desktop, but the two bars appear.

[15:28] <Benoms> If i know that I have windows 7 installed on hd0,1 , how can i enter it into grub.cfg so that grub recognises it?
[15:28] <Benoms> if theres nothing it grub at the moment?
[15:28] <looksharp> which key is called supre ?!?!!

[15:37] <timcowlishaw> Hi all, have googled for this with no success (despite the fact i'm sure i've seen a HOWTO on it before), so am hoping your collective intellect can help me: I want to back up my system using tar, but I have an ecryptFS  encrypted home directory, which is (obviously) currently mounted. How can i backup my entire system (including the encrypted home dir) while excluding the mounted home dir?

[15:39] <G1BS0N> hello fagutman
[15:39] <fgutmann_> I have  a question about domain names: Are domains ending in .local handled somehow different than others?
[15:39] <abdelkader> hello
[15:39] <timcowlishaw> chu: thanks! I've read the first post there, but will dig through the thread to see if there's any mention of ecryptFS
[15:39] <erUSUL> fgutmann_: they are handled by zeroconf/avahi
[15:39] <G1BS0N> .local yes
[15:39] <reniferka> wow
[15:39] <fgutmann_> erUSUL, oh, .. i thought there would be something like that ;)
[15:39] <G1BS0N> ROFL
[15:40] <fgutmann_> because when i try to ping  xxx.local it doesn't even try to resolve the ip by dns
[15:40] <chu> timcowlishaw: On second thought, considering the mounted home directory, you'll probably need to use a LiveCD, or find out how to unmount from your user directory (I'm not sure how to do this, will do some googling).
[15:41] <klync> hey mercenary i've gone through screenrc line by line with another machine (i'm ssh-ing into both) and they're identical. but my delete key works in one but not the other. any thoughts?
[15:41] <fgutmann_> erUSUL, can you give me some more information about what zeroconf/avahi is trying to do and how i can prevent this usage?
[15:41] <urna> timcowlishaw: use the --exclude option to tar for your homedir?
[15:42] <erUSUL> fgutmann_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_configuration_networking
[15:42] <chu> timcowlishaw: This gives some idea of how to unmount a /home directory: http://forums11.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?admit=109447626+1286548885831+28353475&threadId=594120
[15:42] <fgutmann_> ok, i'll read about it or maybe just switch the domainname ;-)
[15:43] <timcowlishaw> urna: that was my plan, but isn't the encrypted version of it somehow *within* the home dir? (mount tells me that /home/tim/.Private is mounted at /home/tim, so presumably i need to include /home/time/.Private while excluding everything else within /home/tim?

[15:46] <Doonz> ralish_: ok
[15:46] <ralish_> Doonz: It's probably technically possible, but I'm not aware of any way to do it, and if there was a way that was documented, it would be completely unsupported
[15:47] <ralish_> ie., when you get issues later on, no-one will help you, as it may be an issue from an unsupported upgrade, and not Ubuntu itself

[15:48] <c3l> what kind of encryption does the alternate installer use for the encryption option?
[15:50] <timcowlishaw> aha! /home/tim/.Private is a symlink - i can just backuup excluding my home dir and it will pick up the excluded version, if anyone else with the same problem stumbles upon this

[16:03] <odb|fidel> right now grub2 waits until i select the entry
[16:04] <bazhang> trans123, unetbootin.sourceforge.net
[16:04] <Leman_IBM> recently I tried to install Ubuntu next to a Windows 7 OEM install, and all hell broke loose.
[16:04] <Rohanc> erUSUL : odb|fidel : yupp, i have checkk that line actually it is an empty line, file ends there
[16:04] <Leman_IBM> The Grub conflicted with Windows 7 and I had to start again from scratch.
[16:04] <trans123> thanks guys
[16:04] <trans123> got it
[16:04] <odb|fidel> Rohanc: tried removing this empty line or adding and empty one?
[16:04] <KhanFused> LEman -- which did you install first?
[16:05] <Leman_IBM> If I install ARCH Linux next to a standard Ubuntu install (which I wiped the HD and started again to do) will I have any issues with the Grub?
[16:05] <erUSUL> odb|fidel: afaics if you wait 3 seconds ubuntu will autoboot to the first entry
[16:05] <odb|fidel> erUSUL: it doesnt
[16:05] <odb|fidel> erUSUL: i would expect that 3 sec behaviour aswell
[16:05] <erUSUL> Leman_IBM: depends on what the arch install do;
[16:05] <Leman_IBM> Windows 7 came with the computer
[16:06] <KhanFused> haven't explored w/ Win7 yet ... but in previous windows'es, if you load windows first, then linux, you're ok ... ah (you just posted follow up) ... um ... don't know if Win7 has changed their bootloader and made win7 not play nice without it
[16:06] <Leman_IBM> erUSUL: Thanks.  Do you have any experience with Dual Booting different Linux distros?
[16:06] <Rohanc> odb|fidel: yes.. I already did that.. u want me to check again?
[16:06] <erUSUL> odb|fidel: i have basically the same default file with 5 seconds and it works as expected
[16:06] <erUSUL> Leman_IBM: no
[16:07] <odb|fidel> erUSUL: mind worked until i did upgrade to 10.10 - so continue asking in #ubuntu+1 ?
[16:07] <odb|fidel> *mine*
[16:07] <odb|fidel> Rohanc: tried both ideas?
[16:07] <Leman_IBM> KhanFused: I suspect it was something to do with the proprietary Swap Partition that Lenovo had in there with the Windows 7 install

[16:07] <KhanFused> 10-27-2009, 08:15 PM -- he found a solution
[16:08] <KhanFused> I guess Win7 wants to be in the master boot record
[16:08] <Rohanc> odb|fidel: what's project-mailinglist? yupp I've tried the both
[16:08] <KhanFused> haven't read the whole thread -- but there's tools avail. on the windows side to fix things
[16:09] <odb|fidel> Rohanc: if the error is displayed on filezillas startup - i would check if that error was discussed there already or not
[16:09] <KhanFused> ... and (after reading later in the thread) someone else disagreed .. they were able to get win7 and grub to play nice
[16:09] <KhanFused> ... *shrug*
[16:10] <Auv5> GRUB thinks that my Windows XP install on my laptop is "Windows 7 (loader)", just a little boot.cfg edit fixed that :D

[16:13] <Danellebreo> it wont boot into recovery either
[16:14] <odb|fidel> Rohanc: not a solution - buzt maybe a direction to go

[16:25] <ehcah> It works from terminal.
[16:26] <KhanFused> Blade -- that would, I think, be a sed statement ... in terminal
[16:26] <Dr_Willis> ehcah:  your use of /./ is a little weird.
[16:26] <KhanFused> haven't worked with those in an age

[16:27] <cx42net> hi!
[16:27] <Rohanc> odb|fidel: this is the file that causes error - http://paste.ubuntu.com/508856/ and then this is the log file of the error - http://paste.ubuntu.com/508858/  can u check it?
[16:27] <BlaDe^> Pici:  would that work for symbols?
[16:27] <Dr_Willis> ehcah:  chmod +x whatever.sh  ./whatever.sh or /full/path/to/whatever.sh   works.
[16:27] <BlaDe^> I want to replace {baseurl}/forums with {baseurl}/
[16:27] <ehcah> Tried that. But, I will try again.
[16:27] <BlaDe^> i guess I can just escape the slashes tho
[16:28] <Dr_Willis> ehcah:  you are doing somthing wrong then.. thats a rather basic feature of bash
[16:28] <Pici> BlaDe^: Yes, but you may need to escape them.  Try with just: sed s/this/that/ filename      Without the -i, it'll just echo the changes and not make them.
[16:28] <odb|fidel> Rohanc: what was the file again /etc/mailcap right?

[16:28] <cx42net> what's going on ?
[16:29] <Pici> cx42net : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Maverick/10.10 support/discussion.
[16:29] <BlaDe^> Pici: sed: -e expression #1, char 20: unknown option to `s'
[16:29] <josh_> hello i seem to be having a problem with my boot menu, since i have a windows 7 partition and an ubuntu partion it automatically boots the ubuntu without giving me an option to boot the windows
[16:29] <cx42net> ok Pici, sorry for the mess here
[16:29] <BlaDe^> sed s/\{baseurl\}\/forums/\{baseurl\}\/ /
[16:30] <erUSUL> BlaDe^: use , or # instead of / to separate sed commands. that way you do not have to scape /
[16:30] <erUSUL> BlaDe^: cleaner
[16:30] <gilaniali> whats a good way to clone a server?
[16:30] <BlaDe^> okay, and what about { or } do they need escaping?
[16:30] <Dr_Willis> !clone
[16:31] <erUSUL> BlaDe^: dunno; wont hurt afaics
[16:31] <sudoer> what is the package to install locate/updatedb on my system?
[16:31] <waterfly> hola necesito ayuda con ubuntu 10.10 y una tarjeta grafica nvidia 10.10
[16:32] <j0f0> Looking for help with my broken MBR and a grub install that wont install correct, any experts here that can help me out?
[16:32] <Dr_Willis> !find updatedb
[16:32] <erUSUL> !info mlocate
[16:32] <josh_> Does anyone know why my boot menu doesnt show up???
[16:32] <sudoer> i dont thx!
[16:32] <sudoer> mlocate
[16:32] <mercenary> mlocate better than locate?
[16:33] <Dr_Willis> josh_:  no MENU at all. or no windows entry in the menu? the shift key can make the menu show up.  reruning 'sudo update-grub' Might make it see the windows install and  add it to the menus
[16:33] <gilaniali> !automate
[16:33] <Dr_Willis> mercenary:  the way i read it the locate system by default is using mlocate.
[16:34] <josh_> thank you, i will try that it just never gives me an option anymore of which partition I would like to boot from
[16:34] <BlaDe^> okay yeah it works with #
[16:34] <Dr_Willis> josh_:  shift key to force th4 menu to show up. if update-grub dosent find windows.. well chedck with 'sudo fdisk -l' that the windows isntall is there. :)
[16:35] <Rohanc> odb|fidel: sorry for the late reply, file of  /etc/mailcap is http://paste.ubuntu.com/508856/
[16:35] <josh_> shift during boot right?
[16:35] <Danellebreo> okay so pretty much this is what i did i hit synaptic package manager and hit mark all upgrades and pushed apply
[16:35] <Danellebreo> after that i couldnt boot anymore
[16:35] <Rohanc> odb|fidel: error log is - http://paste.ubuntu.com/508858/
[16:36] <BlaDe^> when I use the find command it spams sed: no input files, though
[16:36] <erUSUL> BlaDe^: what file command a re you using ?
[16:36] <erUSUL> BlaDe^: what *find* command are you using ?
[16:37] <BlaDe^> find / -exec sed s#{baseurl}/forums/#{baseurl}/# -i \;
[16:37] <Pici> BlaDe^: oh, forgot something: find /some/path -exec sed s/word/replacement/ -i {} \;
[16:37] <odb|fidel> Rohanc: that is not the regular content of mailcap at all - at least as far as i know
[16:38] <Rohanc> odb|fidel: ok help with this if u know anything to do
[16:38] <maedox> BlaDe^: searching from / ?
[16:38] <BlaDe^> changed that now
[16:38] <KhanFused> When the update manager says "A new version of Ubuntu is available -- want to upgrade" ... will that update do anything other than change entries in /etc/apt/sources.list to point to the new distro's repositories?     I want to update from karmic to lucid (yeah, I know, I'm slow) ... the auto-updater usually won't touch any other repositories--leaving me with a mess to clean up later (deprecated packages, things un-installed, 
[16:38] <BlaDe^> find /var/www/www.<my-url>.com/forums/skins/ -exec sed s#{baseurl}/forums/#{baseurl}/# -i {} \;
[16:38] <odb|fidel> Rohanc: mailcap should handle mime-types afaik - not some random html/script/vlc thing
[16:38] <maedox> ah ok :)
[16:38] <BlaDe^> it says stuff like: forums/skins/default/images: not a regular file
[16:38] <BlaDe^> is it only trying directories, or are all the .php files done now?
[16:39] <maedox> BlaDe^: you can add -type f to find
[16:39] <maedox> BlaDe^: it will try to sed everything it finds
[16:39] <maedox> -type f means files
[16:39] <BlaDe^> ok
[16:39] <Rohanc> odb|fidel: so my installation went wrong somewhere?
[16:39] <erUSUL> BlaDe^: and the sed command will only replace the first match on each line
[16:39] <Rohanc> odb|fidel: how do I fix this?
[16:40] <odb|fidel> Rohanc: fix your mailcap file
[16:40] <BlaDe^> hmm erUSUL what if I use /g on the regex? that's the correct modifier right?
[16:40] <BlaDe^> or i can just run it a couple of times i guess
[16:40] <josh_> using the shift key during the boot did not open the menu :(
[16:40] <erUSUL> Rohanc: and sed -i will break symbolic links iirc
[16:40] <josh_> it just continued booting ubuntu instead of giving me a choice
[16:40] <erUSUL> BlaDe^: in your case will be #g ;P you changed the delimiter char; remember?
[16:40] <odb|fidel> Rohanc: google how to re-generate that file or similar. i do not have the solution for you. working on my grub issue right now - but you should have the way to go now
[16:41] <BlaDe^> yeah, you know what I mean thuogh :D
[16:41] <kool-aide> seems 10.04 wont let me download the .iso file :( 4th try failed again....i got stuck at 255mb and it's not moving :(
[16:41] <Rohanc> odb|fidel: hmm.. ok fine buddy :)
[16:41] <Rohanc> erUSUL: can u explain it a bit more?
[16:41] <erUSUL> Rohanc: soory the line was meant for another person
[16:41] <j0f0> If ill tell you that im a very pretty blond girl from sweden, will that that improve the chance for getting some help? :)
[16:41] <Dr_Willis> kool-aide:  Try the torrents? Servers may be  getting some work done on them in preperation for the 10th.
[16:41] <erUSUL> BlaDe^: and sed -i will break symbolic links iirc
[16:42] <Rohanc> erUSUL: fine.. ok
[16:42] <josh_> good tactic j0f0 haha
[16:42] <erUSUL> j0f0: of course but we need pics in advance :D
[16:43] <j0f0> wesure ill see what i can do...
[16:43] <istevenmon> hi guys how can i use the vrrpd -auth flag i cant seem to get it right
[16:44] <erUSUL> !details | j0f0
[16:44] <BlaDe^> erUSUL:  too late now :( lol
[16:44] <josh_> does anyone know how I can get my boot menu to appear so i can choose to start up my windows partition or my ubuntu partition
[16:45] <BlaDe^> i'll fix any errosr that popup
[16:45] <BlaDe^> thanks a lot for your help !!
[16:45] <Dr_Willis> josh_:  you did rerun 'sudo update-grub' ?
[16:45] <josh_> yes
[16:45] <j0f0> http://browse.deviantart.com/customization/wallpaper/?q=ubuntu&order=9&offset=72#/d19g9xx
[16:45] <erUSUL> BlaDe^: no problem
[16:45] <josh_> and i tried the shift
[16:46] <josh_> it still skipped the boot menu alltogether and loaded ubuntu
[16:46] <Dr_Willis> josh_:  the grub2 docs/guides mentuion what to change in /etc/default/grub to force it to show a menu every time..  you might want to LOOK in /boot/grub/grub.cfg   to see if there IS a entry for windows in there
[16:46] <Dr_Willis> !grub2
[16:46] <Dr_Willis> i REALLY find it annoying how the defauklt grub setup likes to hide the menu.
[16:47] <Dr_Willis> could be you are just not hitting the shift key at the right time.. i always set it to NEVER hide.
[16:47]  * erUSUL agrees with Dr_Willis 
[16:47] <josh_> i hit the shift key so many times
sure, latest Ubundu desk 10.10 installed it and grub refuse to install correctly. I have to hd's one with OS X 10.5.8 and the other with Ubuntu... How am i to install Grub in a correct way so i can dual boot?
[16:48] <erUSUL> j0f0: osX ? is a an apple computer? efi instead of bios?
[16:49] <josh_> okay i have grub.cfg open what exactly am i looking for
[16:49] <Dr_Willis> GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0  --> comment it out. # at the front, or delete the 0 so its juyst GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=     - From what i am reading
[16:49] <Dr_Willis> josh_:  seeif theres a mentuon of windows in the file anywhere.
[16:49] <Dr_Willis> josh_:  it could be its not seeing the windows install. and thats why its hiding the menu.
[16:49] <j0f0> erUSUL, no its a regular pc, it's callad a hackintosh :)
[16:50] <erUSUL> commenting out all that has HIDDEN is enough
[16:50] <erUSUL> !grub2 | j0f0
[16:50] <Dr_Willis> josh_:  some line like --->  menuentry "Windows Vista (loader) (on /dev/sda1)" {
[16:50] <josh_> the word hidden isnt even found in the document
[16:50] <josh_> no mention of windows either
[16:50] <Dr_Willis> josh_:  hidden is a setting in the /etc/default/grub file.. NOT grub.cfg
[16:51] <Dr_Willis> if Windows isent even shown in the grub.cfg then it sounds liek its not seeing your windows install at all
[16:51] <erUSUL> j0f0: follow the instructions there that explain how to recover grub from a livecd. the grub install has to be done to the hd that boots according to bios.
[16:51] <josh_> i mean windows 7 is there i can access the files on it i just cannot boot windows
[16:52] <Dr_Willis> josh_:  heres my grub.cfg as an example --> http://pastebin.com/guyjkRpv
[16:52] <erUSUL> j0f0: also further help with 10.10 in #ubuntu+1 ; thanks
[16:52] <Dr_Willis> josh_:  You could always add a entry for windows in the /etc/grub.d/40_custom  file.  but you shouldent have to do that.
[16:52] <kool-aide> in windows os.....we can find all the programs we installed at c:/program files/ what about here in ubuntu? there's bin/ there's usr/ var/ which one? sorry but im just confused and pls help me by giving link about those folders and their purpose...thanx
[16:53] <Dr_Willis> josh_:  the ubuntu forums also may mention windiows not getting seen, and possible work arounds/fixs
[16:53] <erUSUL> j0f0: and well; i am sure i am not the first one to notice but you look exactly like Jessica Alba (btw nice shoulder tatoo ) XXDD
[16:53] <Dr_Willis> kool-aide:  not everything is in c:/program files/ either. :) thats just a 'default' commonly used..
[16:53] <androidbruce|lap> does anyone recommend any other screen utilities besides byobu?
[16:54] <erUSUL> !fhs | kool-aide
[16:54] <nothingspecial> androidbruce|lap: What do you mean?
[16:54] <j0f0> erUSUL: oki thanx! btw, im using a disc called BOOT123 i think its some kind of small linux dist made to recover broken systems or whatever, and i can start OS X from that disc. So i guess its not going to be impossible to fix it?
[16:54] <Dr_Willis> androidbruce|lap:  other then screen, and the tweaked screen.  those are the 2 screens. :) theres one or 2 that  sort of do a similer thing.. but no where near as good as screen.
[16:54] <kool-aide> thanx for the link erUSUL and thanx Dr_Willis ;)
[16:54] <erUSUL> j0f0: probably; but a ubuntu livecd would be a better tool to fix it
[16:54] <Dr_Willis> androidbruce|lap:  one is tmux I think
[16:54] <erUSUL> kool-aide: « man hier »
[16:54] <androidbruce|lap> Dr_Willis, if i try to run 'screen' it tells me to try 'byobu' is that what i should be doing?
[16:54] <Dr_Willis> !info tmux
[16:55] <j0f0> hehe, yeah we kind of look alike dont we?
[16:55] <nothingspecial> androidbruce|lap: editing your .screenrc can be useful
[16:55] <Dr_Willis> androidbruce|lap:  use what you want. I use screen. I dont like the features of byobu
[16:55] <Dr_Willis> androidbruce|lap:  byobu is screen with a fancy setup/configs
[16:55] <nothingspecial> Dr_Willis: I like byobu
[16:55] <kexman_> what do i have to do with an nvidia card to make 1280x1024 available on my system ?
[16:56] <josh_> okay i am going to try the shift thing one more time
[16:56] <androidbruce|lap> Dr_Willis, gotcha thanks a lot
[16:56] <j0f0> erUSUL: can i use the netinstaller i've used to install Ubuntu with?
[16:56] <androidbruce|lap> Dr_Willis, i just recently learned about the uses of 'screen'
[16:56] <SixThreeOh> plug it into the isa/pci/pcie/agp slot
[16:56] <SixThreeOh> then, install the driver if it doesn't seem to find it
[16:56] <SixThreeOh> you can probably apt-cache nvidia for that
[16:56] <Valmyr> very basic question, guys. I just installed ubuntu for the first time. I started Firefox, and got to a page which needed Flash player, so it sent me to the flash download page. On the flash download page, I have a choice of which version to install, should I choose "APT for ubuntu 9.04+"?
[16:57] <erUSUL> j0f0: no
[16:57] <kexman_> androidbruce|lap: fantastic aint'it ?:D
[16:57] <SixThreeOh> search*
[16:57] <Valmyr> and also, if I choose that and click "download" I get a message saying "this link needs to be opened with an application. Choose the application to open it with."
[16:57] <androidbruce|lap> kexman_, LOVE IT!
[16:57] <Dr_Willis> Valmyr:   use the package manager to install flash. dont just 'download it' like the browser suggest
[16:57] <Dr_Willis> !flash
[16:57] <Valmyr> ok, thanks guys
[16:57] <erUSUL> Valmyr: just install the package ubuntu-restricted-extras from aplications>Ubuintu software center
[16:57] <linduxed> so i've got a box that hasn't got the deluser script/command, so what are the steps for completely removing a user?
[16:57] <Valmyr> will do
[16:57] <kexman_> androidbruce|lap: i know the feeling :D
[16:58] <detrix> Hi, I am trying to set up LAMP.  I think I messed up the password that PHP uses to access MySQL.  How do I re-run the configuration?  is it dpkg --configure PHP??? or something like that???
[16:58] <j0f0> erUSUL: my dvd burner is broken is there any tool i could use straight from my usb thumb drive?
[16:59] <androidbruce|lap> detrix, you should probably read up on the xampp site http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html
[16:59] <erUSUL> j0f0: you can use unetbootin to make a bootable usb stick with the livecd iso
[16:59] <erUSUL> j0f0: unetbootin works in osX iirc
[16:59] <Braber01> hi all! is it worth it to learn perl?
[16:59] <detrix> androidbruce, thankx
[16:59] <Braber01> just wondering.
[17:00] <androidbruce|lap> erUSUL, do you know how to create multiple boots from one usb stick?
[17:00] <j0f0> erUSUL: thanks thats great!
[17:00] <manu__> people when is linuxmint going to release...as we know ubuntu 10.10 is getting released in another 2 days
[17:00] <Dr_Willis> androidbruce|lap:  i use grub2 and its feature to boot iso files to do that. :)
[17:00] <erUSUL> androidbruce|lap: nope; but i am sure there are some good tutorials in the web ;P
[17:00] <Dr_Willis> manu__:  we have nothing to do with mint.. ask in the mint channel/forumx
[17:00] <androidbruce|lap> Dr_Willis, ohh hmm i need to rtfm of Grub2 then
[17:00] <erUSUL> Braber01: it depends. what for?
[17:01] <Dr_Willis> androidbruce|lap:  that PenDriveLinux web site has some scripts/tools to help automate it.. but i dont think its using grub2.. i may be wrong..
[17:01] <erUSUL> probably using syslinux
[17:01] <Dr_Willis> androidbruce|lap:  check my http://delicous.com/dr_willis/grub2 links
[17:01] <SixThreeOh> What's up with dev in ubuntu?
[17:01] <androidbruce|lap> Dr_Willis, thanks
[17:01] <Braber01> erUSL system admin, I'm thinking about taking that class next smester and want to know which lang would be best suited
[17:01] <Dr_Willis> SixThreeOh:  clarify the exact probblem to the channel.
[17:02] <Dr_Willis> Braber01:  perl is not to hard to learn.. and can be real handy.
[17:02] <Dr_Willis> Braber01:  the more languages you learn the easier it is to learn new ones. :)
[17:02] <SixThreeOh> tabtab is fubared
[17:02] <erUSUL> Braber01: wont hurt;
[17:02] <androidbruce|lap> Dr_Willis, man i really need to use Delicious
[17:02] <kelevra> i am running ubuntu 10.04 and I am wondering since I would only like windows to run final fantasy XIV is there a way to make a virtual windows inside of ubuntu so i can run the game??
[17:02] <androidbruce|lap> this is a nice way of aggregating how-to's
[17:02] <Braber01> thank you erUSUL'
[17:03] <SixThreeOh> has it beens made folders only?
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> androidbruce|lap:  yea. I search there first most of the time now instead of google  to get better 'tutorial' type links.
[17:03] <Licuadora> xrender
[17:03] <SixThreeOh> naughty naughty, bash != windows search box
[17:03] <Dr_Willis> androidbruce|lap:  yep.  I hit 'tag' instead of bookmak these days.
[17:04] <androidbruce|lap> Dr_Willis, right now i live in chrome and bookmark everything and chrome is synced with my google account so al of mybookmarks are saved
[17:04] <Dr_Willis> SixThreeOh:  im pretty sure that NO ONE in this channel has a clue what you are going on about.  Is there an actual ubuntu support question?
[17:04] <Dr_Willis> androidbruce|lap:  i likle how i can go to delicious from other pcs/browsers or give out my list to friends. :)
[17:04] <androidbruce|lap> Dr_Willis, definitely
[17:05] <androidbruce|lap> Dr_Willis, im stuck installing Chrome then logging in
[17:05] <SixThreeOh> I hit tab tab, and it doesn'tshow everything
[17:05] <kelevra> is there a way to install a game for windows on ubuntu via cd
[17:05] <AbhiJit> !wine | kelevra
[17:06] <androidbruce|lap> kelevra, you could try using Wine, but i've never gamed with wine
[17:06] <androidbruce|lap> i prefer to never use closed source proprietary software if at all possible, so wine is not much use to me :)
[17:06] <c3l> whats the best way to fully encrypt my system, root, home, swap, all of it? the alternate installer is really confusing on this option. and there is no docummentation that I can find, is there some better method to encrypt the full system?
[17:06] <kelevra> i can just make a clean install from wine as if it were windows?
[17:07] <androidbruce|lap> kelevra, a clean install of the game?
[17:07] <kelevra> yes
[17:07] <Dr_Willis> tab twice in a terminal window here  prints out --> Display all 3980 possibilities? (y or n)
[17:07] <Dr_Willis> kelevra:  delete the .wine directory :) that will totally remove anything installed via wine.
[17:07] <androidbruce|lap> kelevra, ^
[17:07] <kelevra> for example it will install as if it were on windows
[17:07] <c3l> kelevra: wine is not a virtual windos system in your linux, it is a compatibility layer for windows applications
[17:08] <c3l> kelevra: oh, you ment your game
[17:08] <kelevra> sorry im really new at ubuntu
[17:08] <androidbruce|lap> c3l, yeah he is trying to play a game designed for windows
[17:08] <kobok> SixThreeOh: does this fix tabtab? env -i TERM=$TERM bash --noprofile --norc
[17:08] <kelevra> but its so much faster and it has so much more to offer than windows
[17:08] <androidbruce|lap> kelevra, you may run into issues with direct x
[17:08] <kelevra> thats what i was thinking
[17:08] <c3l> kelevra: yeah, wine creates an environement in ~/.wine/drive_c/ that looks exactly like windows for a program installed there
[17:09] <j0f0> erUSUL: another question; do you know why my computer kind of freezes when i come to the login menu? My mouse wont work for over a minute its like its beeing detatched and then everything works smooth...
[17:09] <thismamacooks200> is there a chat room for help with gyachi improved?
[17:09] <listerdl> Do you guys actually use WINE?
[17:09] <androidbruce|lap> listerdl, ha no
[17:09] <listerdl> ha thought so!
[17:09] <kelevra> oh one more thing I have no sound at all
[17:09] <theabyssdragon> I use wine for Microsoft Office
[17:09] <androidbruce|lap> listerdl, i've installed mozilla for windows to get a few things working
[17:09] <listerdl> sound is always an issue with ubuntu/linux
[17:09] <erUSUL> j0f0: no; sorry ...
[17:09] <thismamacooks200> wine=enabling dependence on the beast
[17:10] <androidbruce|lap> theabyssdragon, yeah i did that for my wife but now we are all open office
[17:10] <listerdl> look at the forums lots of help ubuntuforums.com
[17:10] <androidbruce|lap> did you guys see that open office has been forked? and will not be LibreOffice
[17:10] <androidbruce|lap> now**
[17:10] <erUSUL> wine=enabling a route of scape from the beast
[17:10] <kelevra> i have tried that but they all say the same thing that doesnt work
[17:10] <theabyssdragon> I like open office, but I need 100.0% compatibility for school work
[17:10] <androidbruce|lap> theabyssdragon, most of the time i have no issues, it's pretty rare. I also love google docs
[17:10] <Whitorr> androidbruce|lap, yeah... that started when Oracle bought Sun
[17:10] <researcher123> hi
[17:11] <androidbruce|lap> Whitorr, yeah and now Novell and Google are taking it on! im excited
[17:11] <Whitorr> androidbruce|lap, but this belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:11] <c3l> theabyssdragon: openoffice has 100% compatibility(?)
[17:11] <androidbruce|lap> Whitorr, sorry :/
[17:11] <SixThreeOh> In apt-get, is it possible to install only the dependencies for a package, but not the package its self
[17:11] <androidbruce|lap> join #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:11] <kelevra> wait does everyone else have sound on their ubuntu??
[17:11] <listerdl> you can open word docs with ease right? Using OpenOffice?
[17:12] <androidbruce|lap> listerdl, yes
[17:12] <ubuntu> hey, guys
[17:12] <erUSUL> SixThreeOh: you can use build-dep ( that will install the dev packages too for compiling )
[17:12] <theabyssdragon> c3l: the biggest issues I've run into is formatting, which is a pretty big deal when organizing a thesis; other than that, no issues
[17:12] <androidbruce|lap> whoa, someone's nick is ubuntu
[17:12] <Furi> sorry, firefox addon
[17:12] <Furi> sets my nick to ubuntu
[17:12]  * androidbruce|lap bows down to ubuntu
[17:12] <SixThreeOh> thanks maybe that will fixed things
[17:12] <androidbruce|lap> Furi, ohh lol
[17:12] <Furi> heh
[17:13] <Furi> anyways, i sorta need some help about window manager
[17:13] <erUSUL> theabyssdragon: formatting is an horror in any wordprocessor with big documents. latex rulez ;P
[17:13] <listerdl> does anyone here ever have/had issues with skype?
[17:13] <Rescue9> Can someone point me in the right direction for a google search. I'm trying to configure a package conf file, but don't want it overwritten with every update. Isn't there a way to have a separate conf file that doesn't get overwritten?
[17:13] <Valmyr> Dr_Willis, ubottu and erUSUL - I installed the ubuntu-restricted-extras package and now my Firefox shows the addon "Ubuntu Firefox Modifications 0.9rc2", however, Flash video on the BBC page will still not play.
[17:13] <[KS]> what does load average of 0.xx means?
[17:13] <[KS]> 0.xx percent?
[17:13] <erUSUL> Rescue9: conf files are not overwritted with updates... and in dist-upgrades you are susually asked what to do
[17:14] <dajhorn> Rescue9: Use the `dpkg-divert` program.  Dpkg doesn't think that the file being overwritten is a configuration file.
[17:14] <sacarlson> listerdl: last problem I had in skype was when I ran in 64bit mode.  now in 32bit it works fine
[17:14] <erUSUL> [KS]: load average is the number of task in runable state
[17:14] <Rescue9> erUSUL dajhorn: Thanks guys. Appreciate that
[17:14] <[KS]> less than zero?
[17:14] <c3l> theabyssdragon: oh, you havent encountered latex yet? worlds best tyepsetting system :) used all over the world by science academics, I recently started using it to format my schoolstuff, its the best
[17:15] <erUSUL> [KS]: is an average, most computers have high idle times
[17:15] <Valmyr> Anyone? I'm having problems playing Flash in Firefox on my Ubuntu install.
[17:15] <kelevra> is something wrong with my computer if whenever i start up ubuntu it says unable to enumerate usb port 2 like 40 times before loading ubuntu
[17:15] <theabyssdragon> c3l: I'm only familiar with its use within products like MATLAB; I'll have to look into the original, thanks
[17:16] <[KS]> erUSUL right, thank you
[17:16] <listerdl> Hey I have just installed FreetuxTV works really well - anyone else tried it?
[17:16] <listerdl> im in tokyo and am watching italian news channel perfectly well :)
[17:16] <erUSUL> [KS]: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_%28computing%29
[17:17] <kelevra> because the unable to enumerate message is somewhat irritating on every start up
[17:17] <Whitor> Hi all, I frequently have a problem where I lose certain input capabilities in X... i'll retain mouse control and the ability to click on program icons to start them, but I cannot input anything into those programs with my keyboard... (ie. I can open X-Chat, but I can't type my question) But if I switch to a terminal, I can login and issue a sudo reboot .... (the only way I know how to fix the issue) any ideas ?
[17:17] <Whitor> If I click on the power icon int the upper right in gnome, no drop down menu appears, so I can't log out that way
[17:18] <Whitor> No drop down menu's appear
[17:18] <[KS]> erUSUL, so for multicore processor (i7 i.e.) load of 1.4 for example means 8.4 processes?
[17:19] <[KS]> so .4 are waiting?
[17:19] <[KS]> or do I need to multiply (i.e. quad-core has max load of 4) ?
[17:19] <Furi> can i get some help with window manager?
[17:20] <researcher123> I want 1 pc in my lab of 25 computers to control login sessions of all the users.The lab is in LAN.What should I do
[17:20] <Cpt_Zyph> hi guys im trying to tweek out my unity user interface on the netbook release
[17:21] <Cpt_Zyph> but i cant quite get it to look like the orginal picture i saw on the ubuntu.com link for the netbook features.. which is what i would prefer for this tiny screen..
[17:21] <_mrn_ver_> hi all
[17:21] <Furi> i'd like to know how to turn off a program via terminal
[17:21] <_mrn_ver_> i am using ubuntu 10.04
[17:22] <go|dfish> Furi: you can kill it..
[17:22] <Cpt_Zyph> Furi kill command google that and it will give you many walk throughs on how to kill apps
[17:22] <_mrn_ver_> i dint find any system call related to keyrings in my distro like "add_key" and "request_key"
[17:22] <_mrn_ver_> are not these system calls shipped in this distro??
[17:23] <_mrn_ver_> or are there any other forms of these system calls?
[17:23] <Cpt_Zyph> wait a second are these pics on the ubuntu netbook features of the new release version for 10.10 not 10.4?? maybe thats why 9i cant set it up the same..
[17:23] <olx69> how can I shutdown ubuntu in kde? there is no option for this, only system/sleep
[17:24] <Cpt_Zyph> u can use terminal btu there should be a button of some kind to shut down in kde just like the gnome versions .. atleast there always has been before
[17:25] <Cpt_Zyph> so can anyone help me with making my unity interface look like the pictures on http://ubuntu.com/netbook/features ??
[17:25] <sacarlson> researcher123 control login?  like enable access to there accounts?  at the time we did something like that by having all the computers synced with the same /etc/password and /etc/shardow files
[17:25] <olx69> in gnome there is a red button 'off', but no in kde menu
[17:25] <Cpt_Zyph> i cant get the side buttons to look like that at all
[17:26] <researcher123> sacarlson: I thought of LDAp
[17:26] <Cpt_Zyph> olx69 well there are some articalls i found on google right away.. about your issue..
[17:26] <Dr_Willis> olx69:   log out, then use the menus at the kdm/gdm login screen.. if using KDE from GDM or gnome from KDE. some times not all the power off options are shown
[17:27] <sacarlson> researcher123: I don't know much about ldap.  that might work.  I guess you can use something like freeradius
[17:27] <Cpt_Zyph> olx69 u can as alwayws use the terminal which is nice and fast anyways... till u learn how to add that to hte gui do you not know how to do it via command?
[17:27] <researcher123> sacarlson: whats freeradius
[17:27] <kelevera> has anyone been able to figure out how to get sound to work on 10.04
[17:27] <sacarlson> researcher123: but I never used it.  freeradius is a athentication accounting system
[17:28] <olx69> halt, shutdown -P etc is known
[17:28] <Cpt_Zyph> kelevera sound works 100% for me just fine out of the box.. wanna be more spacific?
[17:28] <researcher123> sacarlson: where can I get that
[17:28] <olx69> but even if I use a gui ...
[17:28] <Cpt_Zyph> i believe its shutdown -h now
[17:28] <kelevera> Whenever i install ubuntu on my computer the speakers dont work
[17:28] <sacarlson> researcher123: you can get the one on ubuntu sudo atp-get install freeradius
[17:28] <kelevera> the headphones work and everything
[17:28] <Cpt_Zyph> olx69 have you googled this problem yet friend?? there are a million links with people talking about this issue
[17:28] <Cpt_Zyph> olx69 im sure in there they have solutions
[17:28] <researcher123> sacarlson: thanks.im trying
[17:28] <sacarlson> researcher123: there is also jradius
[17:29] <researcher123> ok
[17:29] <olx69> I'm still googling but found now solution yet
[17:29] <researcher123> im trying
[17:29] <Cpt_Zyph> kelevera if your head phones work then its not your OS.. its your hardware.. either you have 2 sound cards and head phones go into one but the hardware should be controlled by smae thing so ..
[17:29] <Cpt_Zyph> olx69 rgr that one sec
[17:29] <sacarlson> researcher123: but seems like rsync with ssh the /etc/password and /etc/shadow would be way easyier
[17:29] <Spider_F1ed> can you help me with bash command to download the page and show me something form it? it should be something like wget page.com | grep blabla?
[17:29] <Cpt_Zyph> kelevera how can head phones work but speakers not if the hardware is not working<?? do you have multi sound cards??
[17:30] <researcher123> sacarlson: But I dont know whole method to do this
[17:30] <kelevera> i dont think i have multiple sound cards
[17:30] <juk> Spider_F1ed: use curl
[17:30] <Spider_F1ed> ok
[17:30] <olx69> switch off audio for system messages as a solution for shutdown via kde menu??
[17:30] <Cpt_Zyph> kelevera do you have a laptop desktop??? were are you pulging in head phones / speakers and what ports.. are they both r jacks or is one usb etc
[17:30] <researcher123> sacarlson: can u get me commands sequence to be executed
[17:30] <coonlokht> hi
[17:30] <Cpt_Zyph> olx69 no
[17:30] <sacarlson> researcher123: with rsync it just makes sure that your master computer will have the same contents as your 24 other systems
[17:31] <kelevera> laptop, and the port that shows a little headphone icon, jacks
[17:31] <coonlokht> i just deleted /var/run/samba/*
[17:31] <coonlokht> how can i reinstall samba ?
[17:31] <Cpt_Zyph> olx69 there is a section talking abuot settings in kde that allows you to disable shutdown options .. when using the leave button some say they have re added the shutdown option to that be swaping the settings from settings menu
[17:31] <researcher123> sacarlson: how do i go about it
[17:31] <Dr_Willis> coonlokht:  why do you want to?
[17:31] <coonlokht> to retreve /var/run/samba file
[17:31] <del_diablo> Hello, I need some help to compile the gimp normalmap plugin. It just fails at attempts to compile http://www.fpaste.org/Z49Y/
[17:31] <Dr_Willis> coonlokht:  sudo apt-get remove samba install samba
[17:31] <Dr_Willis> or was there a 'reinstall' option...
[17:31] <researcher123> Im a teahcer who has to let access to 25 students
[17:31] <coonlokht> Dr_Willis: a full reinstallation
[17:32] <coonlokht> Dr_Willis: don't work
[17:32] <coonlokht> Dr_Willis: reinstall
[17:32] <Dr_Willis> coonlokht:  perhaps purge and then reinstall it.
[17:32] <researcher123> sacarlson:  Im a teacher who has to let access to 25 students and only authorised students can use the laboratory
[17:32] <coonlokht> Dr_Willis: i don't have /var/run/samba/ content
[17:32] <kelevera> and even when it is in the jack the sound is low
[17:32] <coonlokht> Dr_Willis: don't worh
[17:32] <Dr_Willis>  /var/run/ is made  when the samba swerfice starts up i thought
[17:32] <coonlokht> Dr_Willis: don't work
[17:32] <ganeshran> hi do you know command to restart wireless router?
[17:32] <researcher123> sacarlson: hence the question
[17:32] <sacarlson> researcher123: rsync is almost the same syntax as rcp  so sudo rsync /etc/password system2:/etc/password  I think
[17:32] <coonlokht> Dr_Willis: dpkg --purge also doen't worh
[17:33] <coonlokht> work
[17:33] <Cpt_Zyph> kelevera sounds like you have a hardware problem
[17:33] <researcher123> ok
[17:33] <kelevera> the sound works perfectly in windows
[17:33] <Cpt_Zyph> kelevera i missed somej of what ya said sry im at work one sec
[17:33] <youbun2> what come after x86 architecture?
[17:33] <Dr_Willis> Theres no /var/run/anything   in the samba package.
[17:34] <sacarlson> researcher123: yes I understand your a teacher or admin.  but do any students have admin rights?
[17:34] <Braber01> Dr_Willis /var/run/* starts under your root dir.
[17:34] <researcher123> sacarlson: Admin right not to students but to lab assistants and me  only
[17:34] <Dr_Willis> Braber01:  and i think /var/run/samba is made by samba when it starts up.  just not sure how to prove that.
[17:34] <coonlokht> mm
[17:35] <coonlokht> don't work without it
[17:35] <saihtam> some problems with the repositories now?
[17:35] <h0ho> hey guys im using ubuntu 64-bit server on my vps. I've installed mysql but mysqld.sock is missing.  I've tried running "/etc/init.d/mysql start" but it just fails, any ideas?
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> coonlokht:  is tehre a /var/run/samba directory at all?
[17:35] <sacarlson> researcher123: so say you use your office or master computer as the point to change rights.  so when it's changed there you can run a cron or script at the time of change to change all the systems at the same time
[17:35] <coonlokht> Dr_Willis: yep
[17:35] <researcher123> sacarlson: true
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> $ ls -ld /var/run/samba
[17:36] <Dr_Willis> drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 280 2010-10-08 12:14 /var/run/samba
[17:36] <Dr_Willis> coonlokht:  with those permissions?
[17:36] <coonlokht> Dr_Willis: yep
[17:36] <saihtam> anyone else have problems with apt-get update?
[17:36] <Dr_Willis> coonlokht:  so its empty? does 'sudo service samba restart' give any error messages?
[17:37] <coonlokht> Dr_Willis: yep
[17:37] <coonlokht> Dr_Willis: but
[17:37] <sacarlson> researcher123: so I guess I would just right a bash script that I guess you or only admin could run would modify all systems /etc/password and /etc/shadow would be the way to go
[17:37] <coonlokht> no connexion is possible to samba
[17:37] <coonlokht> the log says
[17:37] <coonlokht> tdb problems
[17:37] <coonlokht> on log.smbd
[17:37] <researcher123> sacarlson: but im too new to do it correctly
[17:38] <Dr_Willis> coonlokht:  i have several .tdb files in that dir.. not sure what they are. I Seem to recall them being some password databases or somthing. Id have to reread that using samba book to remeber.
[17:38] <coonlokht> /var/log/smbd:tdb(/var/run/samba/gencache.tdb): tdb_reopen: file dev/inode has changed!
[17:38] <sacarlson> researcher123: give me a name of one of your lab computers
[17:38] <saihtam> samba is not the name of the deamon its smbd
[17:38] <coonlokht> saihtam, yep
[17:38] <youbun2> what comes after x86 architecture?
[17:38] <sacarlson> researcher123: are your systems named or are they just numbers?
[17:38] <Dr_Willis> I wonder if a sudo dkg-reconfigure samba (or was it smbd?) would remake those.
[17:38] <coonlokht> Dr_Willis: it's more complicate
[17:38] <coonlokht> thanks anyway
[17:39] <researcher123> sacarlson: desktop1, desktop2 etc are the names of computers
[17:39] <Dr_Willis> coonlokht:  yea. I skimmed that part of the books on samba. :)
[17:39] <chee> has the ubuntu netinstall image changed to fdisk from parted for 10.10 ?
[17:39] <coonlokht> Dr_Willis: reconfigure don't work
[17:39] <sacarlson> researcher123: and they are static address or the dns will keep feeding these names?
[17:39] <coonlokht> i'll chck
[17:39] <researcher123> sacarlson: they are static
[17:39] <henning> Hello :) I've just installed the fglrx drivers for my ATI card and works perfect except for one thing. I run dual monitors, my laptop display and one 26" display. As it is now the laptop display is the desktop display but how can I make my 26" monitor the desktop display?
[17:40] <Linuturk> what cd image do I need to do an OEM install?
[17:40] <chee> i mean, did the 10.04 netinstall image use gnu parted?
[17:41] <gus3> I'm looking at High Availability set on some ubuntu servers. I'm leaning towards HAProxy.  Anyone have any recommendations? Thanks all.
[17:41] <olx69> ok, plasmoids doesn't help to shutodwn via kde menu :(
[17:41] <SealedWithAKiss> I have no sound in Ubuntu 10.04 can anybody help me troubleshoot?
[17:41] <sacarlson> researcher123: ok  me not being smart in bash would just right a 50 line script with rsync to each the files from start change to the rest
[17:41] <AbhiJit> gus3, #ubuntu-server
[17:41] <gus3> thanks
[17:41] <Ken8521> SealedWithAKiss, it's not muted is it?
[17:41] <SealedWithAKiss> Ken8521, no.
[17:42] <researcher123> sacarlson: thats just great n we never met each other yet this act
[17:42] <Ken8521> is the volume all the way up?
[17:42] <sacarlson> researcher123: let me write you a two line of it to you and I'll send you a copy you can continue
[17:42] <choi> how can i block certain ports using firehol? it's too complicated
[17:42] <researcher123> ok
[17:42] <Linuturk> nvm
[17:43] <jaapz> hey guys, im using maverick for a while now, but suddenly my wireless network has dissappeared
[17:43] <jaapz> in the network applet it says: "wireless is disables"
[17:43] <researcher123> :-D
[17:44] <ganeshran> sorry for repeating. maybe someone else knows. Do you know how to restart the wireless router from ubuntu
[17:44] <SealedWithAKiss> I have no sound in Ubuntu 10.04 can anybody help me troubleshoot? I have followed the traditional troubleshooting guide and nothing appears to help - lspci -v displays my card so I believe it's a driver problem.
[17:44] <lureyz> Why is 64 bit version of ubunt, not recommended for daily usage?
[17:44] <AbhiJit> ahhh
[17:44] <AbhiJit> :(
[17:44] <AbhiJit> !64 | lureyz its supported that web page is not correct
[17:44] <jrib> lureyz: no one knows, ignore the message.  64bit is fine for daily usage
[17:45] <james_> Hello.
[17:45] <Furi> guys, does anyone know where a graphics driver is that's compatible with ubuntu and mobile intel 4 series express chipset family?
[17:45] <lureyz> I have bought my new desktop yesterday and I'am afraid of install it... :S
[17:45] <chee> i'll take that as a '?'
[17:45] <james_> Can anyone help me regarding my Internet?
[17:45] <kool-aide> ubuntu desktop i386 only 685mb?
[17:46] <Dr_Willis> ubuntu fits on a CD. thats one of its 'goals'
[17:46] <xektrum> hi there
[17:47] <bcessa> hi there, can someone please point to some documentation about how to manage startup process on Ubuntu 10.04? thnx
[17:47] <Dr_Willis> lureyz:  read up on the  topic at --> http://ubuntu-user.com/Online/Blogs/Marcel-Gagne-Orbiting-Planet-buntu/Stop-Apologizing-For-Linux
[17:47] <Dr_Willis> !upstart | bcessa
[17:47] <james_> uuurrrrm  Some howe the internet icon has disapeared from the bar at the top. now I dont now how to connect with wfi.
[17:47] <Dr_Willis> bcessa:  some services still use the SysV method..
[17:47] <ragaxx> ciao a tutti
[17:47] <Furi> just going to repeat so someone gets this question: does anyone know of a graphics driver that works with ubuntu and mobile intel 4 series express chipset family?
[17:48] <xektrum> does anyone knows how can I save a bmp image into a 4bpp bmp image on gimp ?
[17:48] <sacarlson> researcher123: http://paste.ubuntu.com/508922/
[17:48] <bcessa> Dr_Willis: the services installed in /etc/init.d right? and those in /etc/init are for the new version?
[17:48] <researcher123> sacarlson: I am taking a break for dinner.Its late night here.shall soon join
[17:49] <james_> why is everything so difficault in Linux?
[17:49] <sacarlson> researcher123: ok well that's syncs two system with an account of sacarlson that you would need to change to a name that has sudo priv and you would have to run that with sudo
[17:51] <KB1JWQ> james_: Compared to what?  It may be unfamiliarity with the system rather than anything intrinsic to Linux itself.
[17:52] <Dr_Willis> bcessa:  init.d is SysV stuff.. but even those (if you look at the scripts) are actually upstart scripts  for the most part.  ls -l /etc/init.d/
[17:52] <james_> Trying to do the simplest thing is so difficault. Lost my Connection indicater of the top bar and now I cant find my wifi option???????
[17:52] <Dr_Willis> !resetpanel | james_
[17:53] <Dr_Willis> or run the nm-applet (i think)
[17:53] <bcessa> I see, pointing to /lib/init thnx, so do you know about a tool to assist in management? could chkconfig work?
[17:53] <james_> hang on ill try
[17:53] <Dr_Willis> bcessa:  ive seen no tools to manage /etc/init/ scripts. You can just rename the extension to enable/disable them.
[17:54] <Dr_Willis> bcessa:  the older sysv tools still work for those managed in .etc/init.d/
[17:54] <bcessa> ok, thnx
[17:54] <ericenns> hey has anyone made a popup acceptable use policy in ubuntu that halts login?
[17:55] <azlelor> I have a problem with a trust USB headset 640U sound is ok, but i havent anything in input, cant change the % of microphone , in mangler (ventrilo) ppl ear me but very low
[17:55] <Furi> repeating once again, as i need these answers in order to install linux: does anyone know of a graphics driver that was made for mobile intel 4 series express chipset family? i've been having errors involving gnome-wm and such that can only be resolved by switching the graphics properties to "none", but i want to put it on "extra". when i open window manager, however, in a terminal it shows...
[17:55] <Furi> ...up errors containing the word "pix" which i can't fully recall, but i'm sure is pretty common.
[17:55] <email1459> helo ubuntu
[17:56] <email1459> hello ubuntu
[17:56] <email1459> is anybody here?
[17:56] <erUSUL> no
[17:56] <email1459> ok
[17:56] <erUSUL> !ask | email1459
[17:57] <erUSUL> !info xserver-xorg-video-intel | Furi
[17:58] <Furi> i'm afraid that might be inaccurate information, but i'm not sure for sure
[17:58] <mamja> lo
[17:58] <Furi> i'm booting via disc
[17:58] <Furi> on ubuntu 10.04.1
[17:58] <Furi> so i'm not sure about permissions
[17:58] <erUSUL> Furi: there is only one intel driver and it comes preinstalled with the system ( is free )
[17:58] <Furi> so i'm pretty much screwed?
[17:59] <Soraya> hi huys
[17:59] <erUSUL> Furi: if you have problems you can try the x-update ppa that has a newer driver release but that's it
[17:59] <Dr_Willis> sadly intel has sort of outsourced some of their chipset devlopment/drivers and cant fully release a GPL driver for some chipsets..
[17:59] <Soraya> is there anyway to work with zune in linux
[17:59] <Dr_Willis> Furi:  10.10 might fix some of the issues also.. Might not...
[17:59] <Furi> so i'm outdated
[17:59] <Furi> and also
[17:59] <Furi> i'm only temporarily booting via disc
[17:59] <Furi> i'm thinking about actually installing
[18:00] <Furi> but i need to make sure i know what i'm doing before i choose
[18:00] <Dr_Willis> Furi:  10.10 is due out  in 2 days..
[18:00] <Furi> i mean, the desktop installations
[18:00] <Furi> i can't really choose between xubuntu and ubuntu
[18:00] <Dr_Willis> Furi:  a full install might have some updates..  you could check the forums.
[18:00] <Furi> oh, so if i install there's the possibility there's a fix?
[18:00] <ericenns> Furi: you can always change your environment after an install there are guides online
[18:00] <Dr_Willis> Furi:  you can isntall xubuntu-desktop on a ubuntu install. and xelect what one to use at LOGIN.
[18:01] <Furi> oh wow
[18:01] <Furi> that's great
[18:01] <Dr_Willis> Furi:  you could install kubuntu, and lubuntum and proberly others as well.. IF you wanted to.. also
[18:01] <james_> Didnt work Dr Willis
[18:01] <Dr_Willis> but that can get a little.. odd...
[18:01] <Furi> oh, to be honest
[18:01] <Dr_Willis> james_:  assume people on IRC have very very very short attention spans.. I have no idea what 'dident work'  or what you are refering to..
[18:01] <Furi> i'm not interested in kubuntu
[18:02] <Soraya> is any app to manage Zune mp3 players

[18:08] <email1459> I'm trying to use a web page with news and different topics and the movie are always broken, the same thing i used on windows os and is work properly. I tried on firefox and chrome too
[18:09] <purpzey> I was trying to run scalpel to recover some deleted files...I ran it once and it completely froze after the first pass. I hadn't realized it but it was actually using disk space...I ran it again, before I realized it had used disk space, and the second time it failed for insufficient space. However, now, I don't have any files to delete to clear the space...I would like to start over and try to restore the files again, is this possible?
[18:09] <Dr_Willis> james_:  open up a terminal. type command hit enter....

[18:16] <stealth_> Hey people, this is semi-related, how do I change the icon of a external HDD, as everything I have tried has failed so far
[18:16] <stealth_> is it something I gotta do different in ubuntu?
[18:16] <Dr_Willis> james_:  dbus is how processes/programs talk to each other.. thats about all i know about d-bus. ive not read up on it.
[18:16] <theabyssdragon> thter: it's possible to encrypt the root partition, as long as there is an unencrypted /boot partition available
[18:16] <james_> Now ive lost the top bar completely??
[18:17] <supplicant> thter: try it and report back
[18:17] <Dr_Willis> james_:  you mean the top panel totally vanished?  but you still have the bottom panel?
[18:17] <james_> yes
[18:18] <theabyssdragon> thter: skimming the article, it does appear to encrypt the root

[18:18] <gustavold> is there a command line to make ubuntu suspend?
[18:18] <Dr_Willis> james_:  perhaps its time to try a reboot, and see if things work better from a clean boot.  It almost sounds like  the dbus service crashed and other things are failing because of it..
[18:18] <phil_in_london> james, see if the following helps with the dbus     /etc/init.d/dbus restart
[18:18] <james_> including <<
[18:18] <phil_in_london> james, sometimes dbus is started too early, before some config files are read.
[18:18] <Dr_Willis> james_:  not including the <<
[18:19] <erUSUL> gustavold: echo mem | sudo tee /sys/power/state
[18:19] <Dr_Willis> james_:  i got that command  jotted down in a file so i can reset my panels easialy :)
[18:19] <gustavold> erUSUL: thanks ;)
[18:20] <theabyssdragon> gustavold: I think pm-suspend will do what you want
[18:21] <james_> That worked this time. Thank you Dr. Willis

[18:37] <crimsonmane> what does it mean to "boot the kernel" ?
[18:38] <Auv5> crimsonmane, The kernel is the underlying Linux OS of Ubuntu, sort of the "core"
[18:38] <crimsonmane> i'm having a wireless problem and it says to reboot the kernel with a particular option. why does the help system built into ubuntu assume i know how to do that?
[18:38] <crimsonmane> because i dont
[18:38] <crimsonmane> and i'm stuck
[18:39] <coz_> crimsonmane,  just reboot the system
[18:39] <coz_> crimsonmane,  what option did it say to reboot with?
[18:39] <crimsonmane> coz_ that wont solve my problem because i can't change into the option it says
[18:39] <amanthakur> erUSUL, thanks i think thats a gr8 tute
[18:39] <prod-beginner> Does anyone know what i am doin wrong in my6 IMQ guide?
[18:39] <crimsonmane> pci=noapci
[18:40] <coz_> crimsonmane, ah  ok   what is it you are doing that requires the noacpi?
[18:40] <crimsonmane> that's not the issue. the issue is how do i reboot with this ?
[18:40] <erUSUL> amanthakur: no problem
[18:41] <collabra> crimsonmane: reboot and hold down the <shift> key,.... or the <esc> key i forget.
[18:41] <coz_> crimsonmane,  ok  then reboot the system...hit the shift  or shift+e keys to get to the grub menu   you will see options for changing the boot commands
[18:41] <crimsonmane> what can i do to not have to hold this key down every time i boot?
[18:41] <collabra> crimsonmane: you could edit your grub.conf file
[18:42] <collabra> crimsonmane: but i would try this first just to see if it works.
[18:42] <crimsonmane> final question before i depart and try what you've said... why does the help file not tell me how to do this??
[18:42] <coz_> ^^
[18:42] <coz_> crimsonmane,   good question..  I dont have an answer  ...which help file?
[18:43] <collabra> crimsonmane: linux is a work in progress... its not perfect in all areas... but its well worth getting to know
[18:43] <coz_> crimsonmane,  for more information on edition in grub2  i would visit the #grub channel as well
[18:43] <collabra> !grub
[18:44] <collabra> !grub2
[18:44] <coz_> crimsonmane,  also the editable file for grub2  is   /etc/default/grub

[18:45] <IH8> Hello, kubuntu-users! I need a program for OCR. Recommend something, please
[18:46] <LjL> IH8: actually you'd have more luck finding *kubuntu* users in #kubuntu
[18:46] <collabra> coz_: does gimp do OCR?
[18:46] <emanuel> hola
[18:46] <collabra> !es
[18:46] <LjL> IH8: anyway, i think Kooka has built-in support for a couple of OCR engine
[18:46] <LjL> IH8: or had in KDE 3.5, anyway
[18:46] <coz_> collabra,  mm  I am not sure let me check
[18:46] <IH8> Ok, thanks a lot
[18:47] <coz_> prod-beginner,   did you do the   "in case You forget to generate initrd file, it always might be generated by hand:
[18:47] <coz_> "
[18:47] <collabra> LjL: #kubuntu is pretty dead
[18:47] <LjL> IH8: these are engines: tesseract-ocr, ocrad, clara, gocr, ocropus - but they don't have graphical interfaces, they have to be used from the console
[18:47] <LjL> collabra: :(
[18:47] <prod-beginner> coz, thats the bit im stuck on now
[18:48] <coz_> collabra,  I dont think so but of course you could check in #gimp
[18:48] <IH8> Cool! Usefull info :-)
[18:48] <prod-beginner> mkinitramfs-kpkg -o initrd.img-2.6.32.11+drm33.2imq 2.6.32.11+drm33.2imq      gives me error     Cannot find /lib/modules/2.6.32.11+drm33.2imq
[18:48] <collabra> coz_: i was asking for IH8
[18:48] <coz_> prod-beginner,  ah ok...did you find the  inux-image-2.6.32.11+drm33.2imq_2.6.32.11+drm33.2imq-10.00.Custom_i386.deb  in the parent directory?
[18:48] <prod-beginner> yes
[18:48] <coz_> collabra,  oh sorry
[18:48] <undecim> Is there a channel for DNSmasq?
[18:48] <coz_> IH8,  check with the people in #gimp :)
[18:49] <coz_> IH8,   I dont think does OCR however
[18:49] <coz_> IH8,  you could use gocr
[18:50] <collabra> prod-beginner: are you trying to compile something?
[18:50] <prod-beginner> coz, does it matter which dir' i compiled the kernel in?
[18:50] <prod-beginner> yes i just recompiled my kernel to enable IMQ.
[18:51] <prod-beginner> atleast thats what i think i did :)
[18:51] <collabra> ahh,... have you looked at auto-apt...?
[18:51] <prod-beginner> never heard of it sorry :S
[18:51] <collabra> prod-beginner: auto-apt will bring any necessary modules and/or library's needed for compile
[18:51] <prod-beginner> asmy name suggests im quite crap at linux :)
[18:51] <collabra> prod-beginner: automatically
[18:52] <killer> ola

[18:53] <i_is_broke> !ot | killer
[18:53] <killer> bitchs
[18:54] <collabra> prod-beginner: it would be worth your while to check out auto-apt if a compile doesn't due to dependancies
[18:54] <coz_> prod-beginner,   I would...just in case...be sure that    build-essential is installed as well....  I would also skin through the how to ..see if other dependecies are going to be needed and install them propr to retracing your actions
[18:54] <prod-beginner> coz, damn, compiling that kernel toke me hours :S
[18:54] <coz_> prod-beginner,  yikes
[18:55] <coz_> prod-beginner,   well  you could also visit  the ##linux channel... someone there may have some current experience with this in particular
[18:55] <prod-beginner> This bandwidth shaping larky better be worth it :)

[18:56] <prod-beginner> the linux channel on this server?
[18:56] <AbhiJit> prod-beginner, ##linux

[19:02] <dajhorn> parapan: Look at the ufraw packages.
[19:02] <parapan> SPM_ > hmm why is that ?
[19:02] <rubika> you speak sphanis?

[19:03] <SPM_> parapan: try and see: http://www.rawtherapee.com/  - it's free (and the current v3 alpha is open source)
[19:04] <jshriver> Anyone know why you can't load a copy of firefox over ssh if you already have FF running locally? Last I was told it was part of X, but may not be the case.
[19:04] <ActionParsnip> jshriver: it locks the profile
[19:05] <jshriver> ?
[19:05] <dajhorn> jshriver:   firefox --no-remote   in the ssh session.
[19:05] <ActionParsnip> jshriver: if you make a second profile you can use that but you will be need to be asked which profile every time you run it (even the local execution). So just kill the remote one
[19:06] <ActionParsnip> jshriver: or you can log on as a different user and use that profile instead
[19:06] <ActionParsnip> jshriver: this will allow 2 instances to run (you'll probably have no cpu time left but it can happen)
[19:08] <jshriver> no other way it's just odd

[19:14] <ActionParsnip> hi trans123
[19:14] <trans123> I'm booting 10.04 from usb, is there any way I can install it on usb, so that I can test as per my needs changes I make remain when I boot next
[19:14] <trans123> ActionParsnip he
[19:15] <blakkheim> trans123: you can't install on the SAME usb drive as you're booted from, but you can use another
[19:15] <ActionParsnip> trans123: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[19:15] <parapan> SPM_:  IS rawtherapee something similar to lightroom in windows ???
[19:15] <trans123> I have the cd also, so can I install from the cd to my usb?
[19:15] <blakkheim> trans123: yes
[19:16] <SPM_> parapan: I don't ever seen lightroom... but I think yes - it can decode raw files, edit them and convert them to the jpeg
[19:16] <trans123> and if I make any changes like installing any app will it reman as such
[19:16] <trans123> when I boot up next time
[19:17] <Danellebreo> and also i dk if you guys had this problem but i got some weird Output: end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector error

[19:22] <android123> Can ubuntu help me get rid of a DUI?
[19:22] <SliMM> How can I make GRUB2 boot from UDF media?
[19:23] <android123> This is my third DUI and i could lose my licence
[19:23] <email1459> hello ubuntu

[19:24] <_raven_> gpodder: sqlite3.OperationalError: unable to open database file - any help?
[19:26] <sacarlson> _raven_: I normaly use mysql but sounds like maybe you didn't create the database or maybe you didn't give the app the priv to open it.
[19:27] <_raven_> sacarlson, it seems to be broken - i could open it some hours ago
[19:28] <sacarlson> _raven_: is the sqlite3 running?
[19:28] <delinquentme> IM looking for some help using "ack-grep" the search tool .. looking to do a search for a file of .haml ext containing string "blah" and "foo"
[19:28] <_raven_> how to find out?
[19:28] <sacarlson> _raven_: does it run on the same box?  is it on the lan network?
[19:28] <_raven_> ???
[19:29] <_raven_> sacarlson, its my desktop machine
[19:29] <hacked_kernel> on the download page for Ubuntu 10.10 its written in front of the 64bit "Not recommended for daily desktop usage"  can anyone tell me whats wrong with the 64bit version?
[19:29] <sacarlson> _raven_: so the app and sqlite3 must run on the same box.  so ps -A  and see if sqlite is seen in the list
[19:30] <erUSUL> hacked_kernel: nothing; is an eror on the webpage
[19:30] <erUSUL> :)
[19:30] <_raven_> sacarlson, it is not
[19:30] <DaZ> hacked_kernel: sometimes there's no 64bit version of some app
[19:30] <DaZ> which means a bit more effort to get it work.
[19:30] <NUSHOR> but then you just force the architecture and its fine :P
[19:31] <sacarlson> _raven_: well take a look in /etc/init.d  and see if you can find it and restart it
[19:31] <inFour> I am looking for some insight about which architecture to go with. i386 or amd64. My pc spec's are: http://goo.gl/cdxL and I can support the amd64 but will going 64bit be worth the extra work required to get or work around some applications?
[19:31] <abountu> hello, I have a problem with my garmin, when I plug it to my machine, a disk appears in my file explorer (nautilus) but the drive doesn't look mounted correctly, I suspect a corrupt fs. (probably unplugged in a bad way)
[19:31] <abountu> dmesg | tail --> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/TU7Nr4GJ
[19:31] <abountu> anyone have any idea please?
[19:33] <NUSHOR> inFour: your machine supports 64bit
[19:33] <TSK> inFour: How much RAM you have?
[19:33] <_raven_> sacarlson, its not there
[19:33] <inFour> I have ~4 GB of RAM
[19:34] <TSK> Then you probably want to go 64 bit.
[19:34] <ActionParsnip> Or 32bit + pae
[19:34] <WALoeIII> I'm wondering what versioning best practice is if I need different versions of a package for different purposes. I use nginx in 3 different capacities and need different modules in each one. Right now I just have one version: 0.7.67-1ubuntu2ppa4 but I'd like a .webserver .lb .operations type name. Where should I put that, instead of ppa4 call it webserver1 ?
[19:34] <TSK> Aye.  Or like ActionParsnip said.
[19:34] <sacarlson> _raven_: is it installed?  take a look at synaptic and see if it's checked.
[19:34] <NUSHOR> inFour yeah definitely amd64
[19:34] <_raven_> sacarlson, no anything seems to has it deinstalled
[19:35] <_raven_> but it still does not appear in init.d
[19:35] <inFour> Alright, thanks everyone. I plan to shrink my windows 7 down to about a 20gb installation for use in classes that require certain applications and run Ubuntu on the rest of the drive.
[19:35] <inFour> Thanks again, I appreciate the insight.
[19:35] <sacarlson> _raven_: it wouldn't apear in the dir /etc/init.d/ if it's not installed
[19:35] <ActionParsnip> inFour: i'd shoot for 64bit personallybut if (for example) you have a printer and the manufacturers only make 32bit drivers then you will need to use 32bit
[19:36] <sacarlson> _raven_: or maybe sqlite doesn't start at boot?
[19:36] <NUSHOR> again, just force the architecture
[19:36] <_raven_> sacarlson, i just reinstalled it
[19:36] <NUSHOR> it worked for me :P
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> inFour: its stuff like that which makes 32bit the 'recommended'
[19:36] <thter> could anyone tell me, what happened to /boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[19:36] <AbhiJit> bye
[19:36] <inFour> Alright, the only thing I have found in the past while dabbling in linux (fedora and ubuntu) was that things like Flash Player didn't want to isntall easily on 64bit
[19:36] <sacarlson> _raven_: it might use sysv to start at boot?
[19:37] <ActionParsnip> thter: grub2 is a lot more complex but more flexible
[19:37] <ActionParsnip> inFour: there is a flash 64bit ppa or you can use (the system default) nspluginwrapper + 32bit flash
[19:38] <thter> ActionParsnip, I'm following this tutorial and I need to edit that file. What can I do? http://mazeoflies.com/2008/06/09/ubuntu-hard-drive-encryption-with-external-key
[19:38] <inFour> Alright, thanks again. Time to format this disk again.
[19:38] <ActionParsnip> inFour: if you install the flashplugin-nonfree package it will give the wrapper method
[19:38] <_raven_> sacarlson, how to simply start it
[19:38] <stealth_> What firewall would people recommend for ubuntu?
[19:38] <ActionParsnip> thter: I've notused encrypted partitions. Ithink they cause too many headaches to be worthwhile
[19:38] <jpds> stealth_: iptables?
[19:39] <jpds> !ufw | stealth_
[19:39] <ActionParsnip> !firewall | stealth_
[19:39] <jpds> ActionParsnip: Yo.
[19:39] <ActionParsnip> jpds: yo
[19:39] <macabre> im connected to a network with windows shared drives. i have the shared drive ip address and credentials but for some reason i cant find the drive?
[19:40] <stealth_> Ahh hanks jpds
[19:40] <ActionParsnip> stealth_: if you are using a router then its not really needed
[19:40] <ActionParsnip> macabre: if you run: smbtree ,do you see the shares? Can you ping the server?
[19:40] <sacarlson> _raven_: can you run sqlite3 at the command prompt?
[19:41] <thter> ok ActionParsnip, could you tell me then how to take the splash screen out?
[19:41] <thter> from /boot
[19:41] <jamil_1> any help:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1590912
[19:42] <ActionParsnip> thter: run: gksudo gedit /etc/default/grub ,remove quiet and splash in thequotes but LEAVE the quotes. Save the new files, close gedit and run: sudo update-grub
[19:42] <thter> ActionParsnip, i need to remove it from /boot
[19:42] <prod-beginner> What is the equivalent to Q for this irc server?
[19:42] <thter> thanks though
[19:43] <macabre> ActionParsnip: i do see the drives when in smbtree
[19:43] <ActionParsnip> thter: those quotes are alsowhere you add boot options. You must run the update grub to regenerate the config file
[19:43] <macabre> ActionParsnip: and yes i can ping the ip address
[19:43] <thter> ActionParsnip, im in a live cd editing the install
[19:43] <ActionParsnip> thter: the splash? Those boot options make the splash show
[19:44] <dominicdinada> I have been using php and the GD and Imagemagik libraries for so long i forgot the builtin image tools in ubuntu to say make a photograph greyscale polarize etc.... a google search didnt bring up much anyone got a handy link for *nix sys level image tools
[19:44] <dominicdinada> !imagetools
[19:44] <dominicdinada> !image
[19:44] <ActionParsnip> macabre: check firewall settings then. Youmay need to edit /etc/samba/smb.confand make sure the OS is in the same workgroup
[19:44] <zikalify> as ff4 will be out at the end of the year will it be pushed as an update in ubuntu 10.10?
[19:45] <ActionParsnip> thter: then you'll need to chroot to run the update-grub
[19:45] <Assumer> Anybody on here have an issue with the 10.10 RC installer hanging?
[19:45] <fordfasterr> I just installed cakephp in ubuntu using apt, where are the files??
[19:45] <ActionParsnip> zikalify: if not you can add the mozilla ppa. Its available on therenow
[19:45] <Pici> Assumer : Please join #ubuntu+1 for Maverick/10.10 support/discussion.
[19:45] <thter> ActionParsnip, I don't know what that means.
[19:45] <fordfasterr> (newb question, I know)  =)
[19:46] <dominicdinada> macabre: i just got here and well i worked tirelessly and have samba down pretty well if you post you smb.conf omitting any data that is sensitive i might be able to help
[19:46] <leife> Anyone knows how to do this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/508991/ ?
[19:46] <ActionParsnip> Assumer: did you md5 test the iso you downloaded? Did you burn the cd slowly and check it for defects once booted to initially
[19:46] <funkiwan> Can someone help me understand why synaptic has held back libboost-dev? When I upgraded to lucid, this was the only package held back. Why?
[19:46] <dominicdinada> fordfasterr: that is off topic here
[19:46] <ActionParsnip> thter: time to research then ;)
[19:47] <Pici> fordfasterr: dpkg -L packagename
[19:47] <ActionParsnip> funkiwan: its dependancies are not met yet. Its the same for any heldback package
[19:47] <dominicdinada> fordfasterr: you might try the #cakephp support channel and since i am always in #php also 3rd party frameworks are off topic as well there
[19:47] <Pici> dominicdinada: And no, thats no really off-topic here.
[19:47] <ActionParsnip> funkiwan: the package is ready but it can't install til the dev/s make the deps it needs
[19:47] <funkiwan> ActionParsnip: so just leave it as is, yeah?
[19:48] <ActionParsnip> funkiwan: when its ready, it will come
[19:48] <macabre> dominicdinada: thanks, but i found the drive by typing the ip address in chrome
[19:48] <dominicdinada> Pici: asking where a php framework is or for a php framework is on topic in ubuntu support ? that is news to me... Heck even mysql is passed onto #mysql
[19:48] <macabre> dominicdinada: now if i my credentials worked i'd be ok :)
[19:48] <funkiwan> ActionParsnip: Thanks.
[19:48] <thter> could anyone tell me how to remove the splash from grub2 from /boot using a live cd?
[19:49] <Pici> dominicdinada: Asking where a package installs something is definitely on-topic. How to use it may be out of our scope though.
[19:49] <dominicdinada> macabre: In my network I use standard user naming conventions on Macs, Windows, and Linux so i never have had a problem
[19:49] <dominicdinada> I have been using php and the GD and Imagemagik libraries for so long i forgot the builtin image tools in ubuntu to say make a photograph greyscale polarize etc.... a google search didnt bring up much anyone got a handy link for *nix sys level image tools
[19:49] <ActionParsnip> thter: if you boot to root recovery mode youwont need a chroot. Why don't you just do a littlewebsearching. There are plenty of guides on chroot and you'll learn more if you walk a little on your own
[19:50] <Pici> dominicdinada: built-in? Are you looking for a gui program?
[19:51] <dominicdinada> Pici: no it is a commandline tool that i have used before a number of times, but like i said its been soooooooo long i forgot about it but i know it is builtin to ubuntu as i used it on my machines before
[19:51] <thter> ActionParsnip, i cant :(
[19:51] <ActionParsnip> thter: can't what?
[19:51] <Pici> dominicdinada: I only know of imagemagick, but that doesn't come by default.
[19:51] <ActionParsnip> Imagemagick is sweeeet
[19:52] <dominicdinada> yes that is not it. It is a command line tool i remember this hell if i didnt have so much code snippits i even saved the entire tools/ php files that call it directly
[19:53] <sacarlson> dominicdinada: maybe GraphicsMagick or ImageMagick
[19:54] <abountu> anyone can help me figure out how to mount my garmin as a USB drive? http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/TU7Nr4GJ

[19:54] <Pici> dominicdinada: convert

[20:11] <lolpants> sorry :)
[20:12] <ElectricPrism> ikonia: Anyways, whatever, if you want a flamewar, go ahead - but just dont use those gay names
[20:12] <LucidGuy> ikonia, but I want to do this to my local repo .. so all my lan hosts get only that update from the local repo.
[20:12] <ikonia> LucidGuy: yes, so wget that 1 package down to your local repo
[20:13] <LucidGuy> ikonia, Do I not have to do more then that ..  update the roo Packages file or something?
[20:13] <ikonia> LucidGuy: you'll have to rebuild the index file, but that's easy to pick out of the apt-mirror script
[20:13] <Eighteens> question, what is the best ftp app for ubuntu to get and put files from a ftp securely
[20:14] <lolpants> i juice my teminal the nm way
[20:14] <Pici> Eighteens: ftp is insecure period.
[20:14] <rww> not if you tunnel it over SSL or SSH ;P
[20:14] <rww> but yeah, it's crap, use sftp
[20:14] <Pici> rww: Then it would be ftps
[20:15] <jamil_1> Is it possible to track an application i.e., what files it is accessing, what data it is sending to internet ans so forth ?
[20:15] <sacarlson> Eighteens: you must mean a pear?  if ftp was ruuning then you must use ftp as the protocal but if you had an ssh-server running I would use that
[20:15] <Eighteens> ok, i need to upload files to a ftp, just checking to see what was the most secure app
[20:15] <Eighteens> so would i sudo apt-get install sftp
[20:15] <dominicdinada> ssl is a false sense of security as many white papers have been written about md5 collisions and SSL.
[20:16] <LucidGuy> ikonia, for you maybe .. has to be an easier way.
[20:16] <rww> Eighteens: assuming you're using FTP and not some other thing, there is no secure FTP app. SFTP is not really relted to FTP other than that they do the same thing.
[20:16] <keybord> ikonia i open the terminal the normal way app but im dutch why does it get on sreen for 2 sec >:(
[20:16] <ikonia> keybord: I've no idea why it's not staying open
[20:17] <rww> dominicdinada: yeah, I meant TLS, I think >.>
[20:17] <rww> s/relted/related/
[20:17] <Eighteens> the hosting provider has a control panel thing, it's web based and really makes me angry, i used a ftp in windows to access their site before, but recently i dumped windows and am now only using ubuntu
[20:17] <keybord> ikonia i did everything it,s hopeless sometime i did recovery is there no other way
[20:17] <sacarlson> dominicdinada: with ssl and key pairs it's weak encryption?
[20:18] <Pici> Eighteens: There are many FTP clients for UBuntu, but FTP is not secure.
[20:18] <ActionParsnip> Eighteens: ftp is a defacto standard so use an ftp client in your ubuntu
[20:18] <rww> !ftp
[20:18] <rww> FTP is a defacto standard? Not really. I don't remember the last time I used it.
[20:18] <ikonia> keybord: can you launch xterm from the alt+f2 menu
[20:18] <shane2peru> is it possible to have empathy setup for LAN, without yahoo, aim or any other accounts?
[20:18] <dominicdinada> rww:  its ok :) not only is SSL not 100% secure the Vast majority are using http to https  which is an insecure connection the only semi secure connection would either be https -> https, or https -> http
[20:19] <ActionParsnip> rww: defacto usually means rammifiedby the osi and documented so everyone uses the same.
[20:19] <dominicdinada> sacarlson: Google any reputable security site and SSL - Md5 collisions and you will see that it is totally not as secure as it was made to be
[20:19] <Pici> !ot
[20:19] <sacarlson> Eighteens: you could also use https
[20:20] <rww> ActionParsnip: umm. De facto means something that's true in practise but not mandated by any standard.
[20:20] <keybord> ikona i just one sec ago it,s say this sudo apt-get install grub-pc in common and no alt+f doint work
[20:20] <ActionParsnip> rww: ftp is part of the tcp stack which I'm sure you use daily
[20:20] <ikonia> keybord: why are you installing grub ?
[20:20] <Pici> Gentlemen, can we plase stay on topic here? Ubuntu support.
[20:21] <semitones> hi Pici I have a support question
[20:21] <jamil_1> Is it possible to track an application i.e., what files it is accessing, what data it is sending to internet and so forth ?
[20:21] <Pici> hi semitones  :)
[20:21] <hwilde> jamil_1, lsof
[20:21] <keybord> ikonia google and it,s say this install sudo apt-get install grub-pc
[20:21] <keybord> ikonia to get terminal fix
[20:21] <semitones> When you log in to ubuntu, can you set the wireless to automatically connect? Instead of clicking on the network you want to join and unlocking the keyring each time?
[20:22] <ActionParsnip> jamil_1: sure, ps -ef | grep appname ,may show you what file is used. lsof may also show it if you grep it too
[20:22] <ikonia> keybord: your terminal has nothing to do wtih grub
[20:22] <shane2peru> Does anyone know how to get empathy to work with only LAN chat, (people near you)  it automatically shows that if setup with yahoo, can it be done without yahoo?
[20:22] <ikonia> shane2peru: you just need a local server to host a chat protocol,
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> shane2peru: surely the client would need to log onto a server on the web?
[20:23] <keybord> ikonia mmm dumb ,,,, but i only need to get terminal fix then i doint boder u guys and girls not any more got more idea
[20:23] <keybord> ss
[20:23] <c3l> whats the best way to fully encrypt my system, root, home, swap, all of it? the alternate installer is really confusing on this option. and there is no docummentation that I can find, is there some better method to encrypt the full system?
[20:23] <ikonia> keybord: yes, but grub is nothing to do with your terminal
[20:23] <ikonia> !crypt
[20:23] <ActionParsnip> shane2peru: you could host a jabber or irc server.
[20:24] <semitones> hello :) did anyone see my question above up there, and know a workaround?
[20:24] <keybord> ikonia okay alt f2 works :) but the real terminal not . :( but i can get to to most install right :P
[20:24] <ikonia> semitones: sure, just use the gnome-network-manager tool and put the wireless key in associated with the access point
[20:24] <ActionParsnip> semitones: there is something to do with pam and the key, or you can set a blank key password
[20:25] <blahblah> So...
[20:25] <ikonia> keybord: I'm really sorry, but what you are asking doesn't make much sense to me
[20:25] <CrazyFisch> HALO

[20:25] <ActionParsnip> !10.10 | blahblah
[20:25] <rww> blahblah: assuming there aren't any problems, yes
[20:25] <StaCole> Hello! Good afternoon! anyone know of a link to install need for speed in Ubuntu 10.4? please!
[20:26] <keybord> im to many things in the head adhd sorry whell i can juce alt + f2 so it,s fine for now
[20:26] <ActionParsnip> !appdb | StaCole
[20:26] <semitones> ActionParsnip, thanks I think that's the problem, because when pam comes up I select "unlock the default keyring when I log on," but it never actually does this the next time. So how  do I set a blank password, just press enter when it asks to set one up?
[20:26] <blahblah> hah
[20:26] <shane2peru> Right, but I don't want to setup a server, I just want to connect with local's on my lan without messing with other accounts
[20:26] <keybord> ikonia im to many things in the head adhd sorry whell i can juce alt + f2 so it,s fine for now
[20:26] <blahblah> They should release it at 10:10:10 UTC. :P
[20:26] <ikonia> shane2peru: in that case, no
[20:26] <ActionParsnip> StaCole: need for speed is a range, you will need to be more specific on the app db. I had underground working in cedega ages ago
[20:27] <StaCole> ActionParsnip, let me check, thank you.
[20:27] <CrazyFisch> Muh
[20:27] <keybord> ikonia thanx for the help for today :)
[20:27] <a13> Hey #ubuntu. I'm running Lucid here and I can't for the life of me figure out how to add a new user. System > Administration > Users and Groups won't let me do anything except clicking 'Manage Groups', 'Help' and changing my own password! (no unlock button/prompt) Should I just do 'gksudo users-admin'?
[20:27] <jamil_1> hwilde: lsof gives too much info than I can handle. My problem is that goldendict, when connecting to internet(wikipedia), is sendiing wrong credentials to my proxy. so I wanted to find form where it is reading my credentials
[20:28] <shane2peru> ikonia: but I don't really understand, we have three on the LAN, I'm on my yahoo with empathy, and so is my wife also on Empathy
[20:28] <shane2peru> and it shows us both as on the LAN (IE not through Yahoo) if we wanted a third, just for LAN, seems like that would be possible.
[20:28] <ikonia> shane2peru: no
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> semitones: http://maketecheasier.com/auto-unlock-keyring-manager-in-ubuntu-intrepid/2009/03/14
[20:28] <Eighteens> so it's better if i ssh into my ftp? instead of using ftp program to ftp to my ftp?
[20:28] <ikonia> shane2peru: you would need a local server to connect to, empathy is just an IM client
[20:28] <blahblah> So what channel is the release party going to be in?
[20:28] <hwilde> jamil_1, lsof | grep <something>
[20:28] <c3l> how do I launch nautilus filemanager via cli? just 'nautilus' doesnt start anything..
[20:28] <ActionParsnip> Eighteens: its a different protocol
[20:29] <shane2peru> ikonia: then why does it show LAN people connected?
[20:29] <theabyssdragon> a13: there should be an 'add' button on the bottom left hand side of the users and groups window; you could always do it by command line, the 'adduser' command will walk you through the process
[20:29] <Eighteens> ActionParsnip, but it will work?
[20:29] <ikonia> shane2peru: no idea
[20:29] <StaCole> ActionParsnip, so, is not posible install need for speed with wine?
[20:29] <ActionParsnip> Eighteens: if the server supports both then great, otherwise you will need to use ftp
[20:29] <shane2peru> ikonia: lol, ok, thanks
[20:29] <semitones> a13, I'll take a shot at this one... when you open users and groups, is there an "add" key visible on the screen? (I have one, but I"m in maverick)
[20:29] <digitalfiz> can anyone help me copy a partition from 1 disk to another. It's a hfs+ partition(non journaled) I'm trying to copy the partition from an ide drive to a sata drive but i cant figure it out :/
[20:29] <rww> ikonia: empathy does local-link xmpp (aka "bonjour", "rendezvous", etc.)
[20:29] <Eighteens> ActionParsnip, thank you :) i will try...
[20:29] <digitalfiz> i am using dd now but its not working
[20:29] <ikonia> rww: ahh cool
[20:29] <a13> theabyssdragon: that's the thing, that button doesn't do anything :S
[20:30] <theabyssdragon> a13: it should request an admin password when you press the button; perhaps you accidentally removed yourself from the admin group?
[20:30] <ActionParsnip> StaCole: if the appdb says not then i'd go with no. You could shell out for cedega or crossover if its compatible with them (they have an appdb too). You may also find a loki installer for it, or maybe EA made a native linux installer
[20:30] <rww> Apparently, it calls it "Salut". and it's link-local, not local-link.
[20:30] <semitones> ActionParsnip, thanks :)
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> semitones: if you make the key password blank, it won't bother you ever
[20:31] <ActionParsnip> semitones: and you won't require extra packages and. steps etc
[20:31] <semitones> ActionParsnip, I just did that :D. I wish the button that says "unlock keyring when I login" actually did what it says it will do though :P
[20:32] <semitones> is that where the extra packages come in?
[20:32] <a13> theabyssdragon: nope, I haven't even done anything yet, and sudo still works.. quite strange
[20:32] <Aer_> can someone help me with my graphics card in Ubuntu please ? im not convinced its working properly :(
[20:32] <StaCole> ActionParsnip, thank you! I will not be because my internet is very slow. I'll have to wait to renew my client for faster
[20:32] <ActionParsnip> semitones: yeah when you login it does some jiggery pokery and unlocks the keyring too
[20:32] <Aer_> im new to linux btw, ive been searching allover the internet cant find an answer to my problem :(
[20:32] <semitones> theabyssdragon, is there a way to run "users and groups" from terminal to see why "add" isn't working for a13?
[20:33] <Aer_> Anyone ?
[20:33] <ActionParsnip> StaCole: could ask in #winehq they may know some tricks
[20:33] <theabyssdragon> semitones: like a gksudo command? I'm not sure
[20:33] <semitones> Aer_ : what kind of graphics card and what is the potential issue? that'll help people here answer your question
[20:33] <a13> theabyssdragon: semitons: well there is gksudo users-admin
[20:34] <semitones> theabyssdragon, like the command that actually runs "users and groups" gui
[20:34] <Aer_> well i have an nvidia GeForce 9800 GT
[20:34] <Aer_> and the problem is
[20:34] <a13> semitones: well there is gksudo users-admin
[20:34] <Eighteens> ActionParsnip, it worked! thanks a bunch
[20:34] <semitones> a13, try just running "users-admin" and see if you get any terminal messages when you press "add"
[20:34] <semitones> maybe that will work
[20:34] <ActionParsnip> Eighteens: np man, glad you got the gold :)
[20:34] <theabyssdragon> semitones: good idea
[20:34] <zeltak> guys..kinda stuck here..getting this error on upgrade to mavrick :http://img241.imageshack.us/img241/3154/selection035.png
[20:34] <StaCole> ActionParsnip, ok, let me check, or if you know of any racing game that will install easier in ubuntu
[20:35] <zeltak> could really appriciate some help
[20:35] <blakkheim> !10.10 > zeltak
[20:35] <Crash1hd> trying to do the following and its not working find . -exec rm -rf|grep "r01"
[20:35] <a13> semitones: Good thinking. Doesn't output anything though..
[20:35] <Aer_> I have a game that works with my card in windows XP but in Ubuntu i run this game in Wine and all my graphics settings are set to minimum and i cant not higher the graphics settings it says for the higher settings "Unsupported for graphics related reasons"
[20:35] <ActionParsnip> StaCole: there's some games on getdeb. You will need to add their repo first but they do exist
[20:35] <semitones> :(
[20:36] <ActionParsnip> !games | StaCole
[20:36] <Aer_> and in windows I can run the game on them settings its the same card... so i dont think my driver for it is installed properly or the right one or my card isnt configured properly for wine..  i have no idea what else i can do :/ i was told to make some changes in regedit in wine.. didnt help :(
[20:36] <blakkheim> zeltak: i didn't get your PM. what is it?
[20:36] <a13> semitones: theabyssdragon: gksudo users-admin does allow me to press all the buttons. Should I just use that or is unrecommended? (as I see 'root' in the list, etc.)
[20:36] <Aer_> any one got any idea on what my prob is ?
[20:36] <StaCole> yes
[20:36] <Aer_> ?
[20:36] <StaCole> ubottu, thank you!
[20:36] <blakkheim> Aer_: repeating yourself so quickly isn't a good idea, you can try #winehq for wine-specific problems
[20:37] <semitones> a13, if the gui doesn't work, it's probably safer just to add a user with the terminal. Someone here probably knows the commands
[20:37] <Aer_> ive tried
[20:37] <Aer_> i cant find a solution to my problem
[20:37] <zeltak> blakkheim: i tried to open a query windw
[20:37] <Crash1hd> how do I remove all files that have the extension .r01 using terminal in a subtree structure?
[20:37] <theabyssdragon> a13: it would probably be fine, but as semitones says, you should probably just use the 'adduser' command
[20:37] <semitones> a13, you might also report a bug to launchpad... other people might have that problem too
[20:37] <mistere3571> I've installed Maverick RC but find that apt-get will not install any software.  Do I need to wait until tomorrow for the repositories to work?
[20:37] <a13> semitones:  okay, I'll do that
[20:38] <a13> theabyssdragon: semitones: Okay I'll go looking for some commands. Thanks!
[20:38] <Aer_> so is there anyone who could help me ? :s cus id really like it if i could stick with linux and not have to keep switching back to windows :(
[20:38] <semitones> a13, good luck :)
[20:38] <ThomasWaldmann> is it just me or is the new update manager missing the package names in the list?
[20:38] <zeltak> blakkheim: see this error: http://img241.imageshack.us/img241/3154/selection035.png
[20:38] <zeltak> any odea why im getting this?
[20:38] <semitones> Aer_, honestly if you're gaming it's better to dualboot windows :) that's what a lot of us do
[20:39] <Aer_> hmm but thats annoying lol
[20:39] <semitones> some people might disagree with me though
[20:39] <blakkheim> zeltak: this channel doesn't support 10.10
[20:39] <zeltak> aahh isee is there a channel that does?
[20:39] <Aer_> and my main point is im not sure if my card is installed or configured properly for linux and im not sure how to make sure it is as im new to linux, was wondering if someone who knows this stuff could help me
[20:39] <Pici> zeltak: #ubuntu+1
[20:40] <semitones> Aer_, well you can see if your card is using the right drivers, but that might not help with wine. Want to do that?
[20:40] <Aer_> please :)
[20:40] <zeltak> thx Pici and blakkheim
[20:40] <Aer_> then i can rule out that my driver is the problem
[20:41] <semitones> Aer_, ok, try going to System>Administration> and look for something like "hardware drivers" (I'm not sure of the name)
[20:41] <Aer_> ok got it
[20:41] <semitones> alright, do you see your graphics card on there?
[20:41] <Aer_> yes
[20:42] <delinquentme> if i want to use the standard ubuntu GUI  search tool .. whats the search string if i want ot find a file that has both "foo" ANd "Bar" inside it?
[20:42] <delinquentme> the "foo" and "Bar" strings
[20:44] <semitones> Aer_, what does it say about the drivers you're using?
[20:44] <alaing> I'm just moving my website over from windows to ubuntu server. I need help with a url in a stylesheet this is the stylesheet location /var/www/albums/themes/home_theme/styles/dark.css and the img url I want is in /var/www/home/img/website_bg.jpg
[20:44] <Eighteens> ActionParsnip, how do you make a colon in vim, i'm trying to edit a file, and the colon try's to :q when i really want it to write :q
[20:45] <Aer_> semitones,  it says "This Driver is activated and currently in use" at the bottom and at the top it says (version current) [recommended] but my problem is it said this before and my driver was waaay out of date so someone told me to use a PPA Update or soemthing and add it to my sources list
[20:45] <Aer_> so i added that and updated my card driver, but the driver i have installed from "Synaptic packet manager" from this PPA is still outdated compared to the one on the nvidia website, so i dunno im getting lost in linux with graphics drivers lol xD
[20:45] <rohit_> trying to install banshee getting error checking for TAGLIB_SHARP... configure: error: Package requirements (taglib-sharp >= 2.0.3.7) were not met:
[20:46] <rohit_> Requested 'taglib-sharp >= 2.0.3.7' but version of TagLib Sharp is 2.0.3.2
[20:46] <semitones> Aer_, ok well I don't know anything like that, but there's one thing you can do to see if your drivers are giving you hardware acceleration
[20:46] <Aer_> whats that ?
[20:46] <ffwant> Is gconf-cleaner stable ? (it is on the software center default) has anyone used it ?
[20:46] <semitones> Aer_, in terminal, run the command "glxinfo|grep direct"
[20:47] <Aer_> ok
[20:47] <semitones> you might need to install a package or two to do that
[20:47] <Aer_> direct rendering: Yes   GL_EXT_Cg_shader, GL_EXT_depth_bounds_test, GL_EXT_direct_state_access,
[20:47] <Aer_> so i guess i have hardware acceleration ?
[20:47] <semitones> Aer_, ok great, that means hardware acceleration is working
[20:47] <Aer_> :)
[20:47] <semitones> and that's about as much as I know about graphics cards lol
[20:48] <saihtam> omg someone added me as bot?
[20:48] <Aer_> im guessing "GL_EXT_Cg_shader" means my card has shaders or whatever enabled ?
[20:48] <guntbert> Eighteens: first get vim into insert mode by typing i
[20:48] <bousselham> salut
[20:48] <semitones> sounds good to me :)
[20:48] <alzie> semitones: what about running glxgears?
[20:48] <Aer_> becuase that was another prob in my game in wine lol some of the settings say my card doesnt support shaders something something... when here it says it does lol
[20:48] <zerothis2> my login does not show any users, i can't login
[20:48] <rww> saihtam: Users that attempt to /join #ubuntu while not identified with nickserv are redirected to #ubuntu-unregged. You identified after joining instead of before, hence you were redirected.
[20:49] <saihtam> rww: I always identify, but I had some problem with my usb keyboard earlier
[20:49] <semitones> alzie, from what i've heard glxgears isn't all _that_ useful in diagnosing graphics cards things, but I like watching the gears :D
[20:50] <alzie> semitones: atleast it gives an idea about frame rate?
[20:50] <Aer_> but anyway semitones thanks for your time and help :) just curious though if you know if there is a channel like this for wine ? or where i can look for graphic problems in wine ?
[20:50] <wildc4rd> does anyone know of a good avi editor available from synaptic?
[20:50] <Aer_> ive looked a few places online but found nothing useful, not sure if i been using the right help or not lol
[20:50] <hwilde> !wine
[20:50] <Aer_> thanks :)
[20:51] <semitones> Aer_, the two things I would try are going to wine's app database and reading all the info there about the game. Then you can try asking for help at #winehq
[20:51] <semitones> what ubottu said :P
[20:51] <ffwant> Is gconf-cleaner stable ? (it is on the software center default) has anyone used it ?
[20:51] <tjc__> hey guys
[20:51] <Aer_> ok, thanks semitones  :)
[20:51] <zerothis2> am i in #ubuntu? nickserv doesn't respond to me and dozens of bots are asking me hundreds of antispam questions all with conflictiong answers
[20:51] <semitones> you're welcome :D
[20:51] <Bisu[Shield]> any suggestion on desktop gadgets like with windows 7?
[20:51] <semitones> good luck
[20:52] <Aer_> thanks, i need it lol had this problem a few weeks now lol XD
[20:52] <rww> zerothis2: yes
[20:52] <tjc__> does anyone knows how to convert cr2 files to jpg
[20:52] <tjc__> ?
[20:52] <saihtam> conclusions I made today 10.04.1 installation sucks if you have bluetooth keyboard and mouse, 10.10 works but some problem with repository after installation
[20:52] <rohit_> checking for TAGLIB_SHARP... configure: error: Package requirements (taglib-sharp >= 2.0.3.7) were not met:
[20:52] <rohit_> Requested 'taglib-sharp >= 2.0.3.7' but version of TagLib Sharp is 2.0.3.2
[20:52] <sms_> My HDD has a 100mb bootable NTFS partition and the rest ~320gb it is a normal NTFS partition. Can I combine the two partitions without losing data from the big partition?
[20:53] <mobius> I have two 10.04 machines... after install, one of them gives me a nice dynamic status update as the /etc/motd with info like packages needing update... the other does not. how did i manage to clobber that?
[20:53] <theabyssdragon> sms_: the 100mb partition is probably the boot partition used by windows 7
[20:54] <tjc__> heloooo
[20:54] <guntbert> zerothis2: yes, you are in #ubuntu.  Do you have an ubuntu support question?
[20:55] <Aer_> hmm the wine chat room seems to be dead lol
[20:55] <sms_> theabyssdragon, yeah it has a win7 loader on it, but I don't need it.
[20:56] <Aer_> not one person talking in there :(
[20:56] <saihtam> anyone running multipathd on SAN disk on an old 8.10 installation? Intrested how it work?
[20:57] <theabyssdragon> sms_: I take it windows is no longer installed? if that's the case, you could delete the 100mb partition and then expand the 320gb partition without losing anything on the 320gb partition, however everything on the 100mb parition will be lost
[20:57] <ffwant> Is gconf-cleaner stable ? (it is on the software center default) has anyone used it ?
[20:57] <theabyssdragon> sms_: just make sure NOT to do that the other way around (eg. delete the 320gb and expand the 100mb)
[20:57] <zerothis2> guntbert, yes, my login shows no users, just the computer name and icon and botom panel without display manager or language options
[20:58] <semitones> I have this really cool button on my laptop -- it disables the touchpad-click, which in theory would keep you from accidentally clicking with your hands as you type. However, it doesn't seem to actually work.... even though I get a nice graphic pop up indicating that I've turned the click off...
[20:58] <dajhorn> mobius: Reconfigure or reinstall the  update-notifier-common and update-manager-core packages.   Also check the /etc/init/mounted-varrun.conf file.
[20:59] <guntbert> zerothis2: what did you do before that happened?
[20:59] <Kentrel> Hey my Ubuntu system won't boot unless I press S to skip this line in the fstab
[20:59] <Kentrel> none /proc/bus/usb usbfs devgid=122,devmode=664 0 0
[21:00] <Kentrel> Whats wrong with that?
[21:00] <sms_> theabyssdragon, yep Win7 isn't installed anymore. Thanks
[21:00] <xchinjo> กดเกดเ
[21:00] <kexman_> i have a strange nvidia problem, my monitor is stuck at 640x480 resolution and i cant do anything about it, read forums, and couldnt resolve the problem , could anyone lend me a hand with this ?
[21:00] <ChrisBuchholz> Hi, where do i place the .vim theme file for vim to install the theme?
[21:01] <zerothis2> guntbert, I pointed and clicked a user from the list (now absent) and enterend a password when the password box appeared. or I selected the user with arrows and <enter>, same result
[21:02] <guntbert> zerothis2: you misunderstood my question - what did you change in your system between "then" and "now"?
[21:03] <semitones> Ok -- if I want to see what happens when I press the "disable trackpad" key on my computer, what logs would I need to look in?
[21:03] <tw-oic> Is there any way to map ctrl-shift-c to send 0x03 in gnome terminal, so I can map ctrl-c to copy?
[21:03] <semitones> I'm trying to find out what it's doing -- why it's not behaving as I expect
[21:05] <guntbert> tw-oic: is <ctrl><shift>c too much trouble?
[21:06] <zerothis2> guntbert, I updated my noscript plugin for firefox, which i assume to be unrelated to the loging screen
[21:06] <alzie> kexman_ : have a look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=990978 This is how I solved the same issue
[21:07] <DocMAX> can someone help me with cross compiling samba? i make a ./configure --host=arm-linux (also also tried --host=i686 --target=arm-linux) but i still get an i686 executable
[21:08] <guntbert> zerothis2: seems reasonable, can you get to a text login screen (<ctrl><alt>F2) ?
[21:09] <tw-oic> guntbert: When it's different from every other hotkey for copy/paste, yes.
[21:10] <zerothis2> guntbert, yes, i'm using ctrl+alt+f3 to chat at this very moment, have a browser running in f2 and a prompt in f1
[21:11] <zerothis2> guntbert, the faulty login screen is on f7
[21:12] <guntbert> zerothis2: (of course :-)) -- well (I am not good with gdm troubles) - try to restart gdm  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart or sudo service gdm restart
[21:14] <Kuba> heyy
[21:14] <ganeshran> can ubuntu handle two simultaneous internet connections, one on wlan0 and one through wvdial?
[21:15] <zerothis2> guntbert, both commands have the same effect as ctrl+alt+bs, restarts right back to the userless login, thanks for trying
[21:15] <Kuba> If I install ubuntu 10.10 rc now, and update it on the release day, would it be the same as installing it on the release day?
[21:15] <Ken8521> Kuba, as long as you keep it up to date..
[21:15] <Kuba> mhm
[21:16] <Kuba> Yet it isn't the same as installing 10.04 now, and upgrading it on the relase day, am I right?
[21:17] <tw-oic> Apparently, I can middle click for paste for the X clipboard (which I fill by selecting text).  I did not realize GTK and X had separate clipboards.  Unfortunately, the GTK one is the one virtualbox links to the host clipboard.
[21:17] <Ken8521> Kuba, well, 10.04, if you upgrade it on 10.10 release day, it will still be 10.04.. unless you dist-upgrade it... i'll caution you against that, becasue when 10.10 is released, there's gonna be a horde of folks upgrading, and an upgrade from 10.04 will go very slow... so if you want 10.10.. personally, i'd probably install it now.
[21:17] <Ken8521> i've been running it since the first beta, and i've had zero problems
[21:18] <visage_> 10.10 is pretty good so far
[21:18] <visage_> only thing i had problems with is the ath9k driver
[21:18] <Ken8521> visage_, i've had zero probs
[21:18] <guntbert> zerothis2: well - as a last measure you could try to apt-get purge gdm and then reinstall it ....
[21:18] <visage_> i havent been able to get it into master mode
[21:18] <visage_> :/
[21:18] <Ken8521> visage_, whats wrong w/ it? (i use ath5k)
[21:18] <Ken8521> ah
[21:19] <visage_> funny though
[21:19] <visage_> i run backtrack 4
[21:19] <visage_> it works like a charm
[21:19] <rww> which is why you download the alternate CD off bittorrent and use that for upgrades. bittorrent will be nice and fast, and you'll just need to fetch the non-default packages you've installed.
[21:19] <Ken8521> does it support penetration?
[21:19] <visage_> i believe i need to patch the driver, or someshit
[21:19] <visage_> Yes.
[21:19] <Ken8521> hm
[21:19] <Kuba> Ken8521: Packages shouldn't change a lot in those incoming days? So practically, installing rc + aptitude full_upgrade gives me almost the same as 10.10? :)
[21:19] <visage_> Other than that, I love 10.10
[21:20] <rww> Kuba: correct
[21:20] <almoxarife> is there any kind of advantage in upgrading??? I mean overall speed or integration , ease of use?
[21:20] <Ken8521> Kuba, yeah.. i wouldn';t expect any dramatic changes in the next two days...
[21:20] <rww> although I'd do safe-upgrade, personally. full-upgrade generally causes more problems than it solves
[21:20] <visage_> anyone do any python programming?
[21:20] <Kuba> rww, Ken8521: thank You very much :)
[21:21] <Ken8521> Kuba, odds are, if it doesn't work today, it's not gonna work on the 10th..
[21:21] <Ken8521> lol
[21:21] <c3l> visage_: for that #python might be a better place to ask in
[21:21] <visage_> i know, i was just curious
[21:21] <Kuba> Ken8521: Is it possible that it won't work today? :D
[21:21] <Ken8521> Kuba, well anything is possible
[21:21] <Kuba> hrhrh
[21:21] <Ken8521> Kuba, are you planning to upgrade, or clean install?
[21:22] <Kuba> Ken8521: I just got new netbook so I'd like to install something on it and I wouldn';t like to repeat myself ;0
[21:22] <visage_> Kuba: you digging the Unity UI?
[21:22] <Ken8521> Kuba, well, i can only tell you my experience... there's been complaints about Unity(the netbook GUI)...
[21:23] <Ken8521> i personally have always hated it, so i install a normal Gnome
[21:23] <visage_> thats what i was curious about
[21:23] <Kuba> urm, I don't think I'm going to use netbook remix
[21:23] <Ken8521> Kuba, if you use the normal, gnome Ubuntu... you should have no issues I would think
[21:23] <Kuba> Just casual i386 version ;p
[21:23] <guntbert> !ot | visage_
[21:23] <Ken8521> there was someone in ubuntu+1 fussing for about 6hrs w/ unity the other day
[21:24] <Kuba> btw can unity be installed on normal ubuntu?
[21:24] <Kuba> (ppa?)
[21:24] <visage_> Im sure
[21:24] <Ken8521> Kuba, i don't see why not.... i had it on my 17in laptop... and it still sucked.
[21:24] <ikonia> Kuba: is there a package for the version your using
[21:24] <visage_> Ken: You tried Gnome Shell, yet?
[21:24] <rww> Ubuntu Netbook and Ubuntu Desktop use the same repositories, so there's presumably a package you can install.
[21:24] <visage_> I'm not fawn of it
[21:25] <dlebauer> can anyone tell me how to connect to a server that is not listed in the default list?
[21:25] <Ken8521> visage_, i've not messed w/ it, but... i've heard it's not great
[21:25] <Kuba> ikonia: I don't get You, sorry
[21:25] <ikonia> Kuba: is there a package for it in the repos your using for the ubuntu version your using
[21:25] <visage_> It's not really that stable honestly.
[21:25] <ikonia> visage_: try to keep it to support discussion, please.
[21:26] <Kuba> ikonia: Quick aptitude search doesn't get me anywhere with it
[21:26] <ikonia> Kuba: ok, so there isn't an official package in the stable repos, that should be a good guide for if you should look at installing it
[21:26] <Ken8521> Kuba, i just looked in synaptic, there's a package called unity... "unity interface for ubuntu netbook edition"
[21:27] <Kuba> ikonia: Okay.
[21:27] <anr78> is there a way I can choose UID/GID for a user when installing from the standard Desktop CD?
[21:27] <Kuba> Ken8521: E: Unable to locate package unity
[21:27] <Kuba> Ken8521: Are You on 10.04?
[21:27] <rww> unity isn't on 10.04.
[21:28] <Ken8521> Kuba, negative, 10.10.. thats what i was saying, it's available on 10.10
[21:28] <c3l> What encryptiom method is the alternate install using to encrypt the entire system? There is no documentation to be found on this. Is there possibly some othe recommended way to encrypt your full system (root, home, swap - all of it, the entire system)?
[21:28] <Kuba> Ken8521: I see now
[21:28] <ikonia> c3l: truecrypt
[21:28] <rww> ikonia: the alternate install doesn't use truecrypt ;P
[21:28] <Wicked> iirc its luks
[21:29] <ikonia> rww: doesn't it ?
[21:29] <Kuba> Well, I'm going to install 10.10rc, aptitude full-upgrade, and in 3 days (after release) I should be running 100% 10.10 :)
[21:29] <ikonia> I thought luks was used for partition not file system encyption ?
[21:29] <c3l> ikonia: no, all I know is that it doesnt use truecrypt, dont give out info that youre not sure of :)
[21:29] <rww> ikonia: Nope. Ubuntu in general doesn't have it, thanks to licensing insanity.
[21:29] <c3l> Wicked: what encryption method? aes, twofish etc?
[21:29] <rww> assuming it's the same as Debian, and it probably is, it's LVM2+LUKS
[21:30] <Wicked> im 90% sure it uses luks
[21:30] <Wicked> oh
[21:30] <Wicked> aes i think
[21:30] <Wicked> by default
[21:30] <FloodBot3> Wicked: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:30] <Ken8521> Kuba, actually when you install 10.10.. it will give you the option to install all current updates while you're installing.
[21:30] <amlidbr>  meu video abre  de   ponta cabeça aalgum programa para desvira=lo
[21:30] <c3l> also, why is there no way to use truecrypt to encrypt the system, as it works with windows?
[21:30] <rww> !br | amlidbr
[21:30] <ikonia> c3l: check out rww's comment
[21:30] <Kuba> Ken8521: Omm, didn't know that... is that a new feature of 10.10? :)
[21:31] <rww> c3l: dunno, you'd have to ask the truecrypt people. As I mentioned, Ubuntu doesn't have it in our repositories for licensing reasons.
[21:31] <c3l> Wicked: how do you access any settings for the encryption, or at least see what it does?
[21:31] <Ken8521> Kuba, first time i've ever seen it.. you can also check a box to install all multimedia codecs.
[21:31] <Ken8521> during install
[21:31] <c3l> rww: ah thanks
[21:31] <Wicked> c3l, im not really sure man. ive never used it before...but i did look into at one point a long time ago
[21:31] <Kuba> Ken8521: on alternate also? (I'm thinking of lvm...)
[21:31] <antivirtel> |10.08.|13:18.29|<Stellarium-> antivirtel: Alt+0244 <--- sorry, but not works :\
[21:32] <Ken8521> Kuba, only thing i found it didn't install, was libdvdcss, so i add lucid's medibuntu repository, install libdvdcss, then remove it so it doesn't pull in upgrades and bork things
[21:32] <Ken8521> Kuba, now that i don't know.. i didn't use the alt. cd this time around, and i used ext4
[21:32] <Kuba> btw is ext4 still the preffered fs?
[21:32] <antivirtel> how can I write this letter: ô "U+00F4 LATIN SMALL LETTER O WITH CIRCUMFLEX"; In windows: Alt+ANSII code, here in lucid?
[21:32] <Ken8521> Kuba, i think so... it works fine...
[21:32] <c3l> there should really be more documentation on the encryption with the alternate cd, as it is now, its really hard to understand what to do, and how its done
[21:33] <rww> c3l: again assuming that Debian and Ubuntu do the same thing here, "256-bit aes-cbc-essiv:sha256"
[21:33] <amlidbr> obg
[21:33] <rww> Kuba: yes
[21:33] <c3l> rww: thanks a lot!
[21:34] <amlidbr> join#ubuntu-br-doc
[21:34] <istvan> I have my media server running ubuntu with ebox on it. how can I make it an ftp server such that I can create ftp credentials for specific folders on the system etc easily so that I can send the creds to a friend for example and then they only can access that folder?
[21:35] <Coded1> kinda forgot ... how do I see currently set environment variables?
[21:35] <rww> Coded1: env
[21:36] <Coded1> rww; ty
[21:37] <uLinux> !hi
[21:37] <c3l> also, the alternate install is asking if I want to encrypt my home directory, even though I encrypted the entire system. encrypting my home direcory is quite redundant in that case I assuem. but if it doesnt give any preformanece decreas, and as its no hassle at all, just enter password as normal. there is now drawback?
[21:37] <Ken8521> brb
[21:37] <c3l> uLinux: the !hi command has been removed, ops thought it got too spammy
[21:37] <uLinux> lol
[21:37] <uLinux> c3l: do you have /home encrypted or u want to?
[21:39] <c3l> uLinux: Im installing anew, encrypting my entire system via the alternate install, after setting up the partitions and encrypting them, the installer also asks me if I want to encrypt my home folder. should I do that too? or would it be redundant to encrypt that too?
[21:39] <collabra> c3l: i had problems encrypting both my harddrive as well as my home directory.... the two seemed to fight over control.
[21:39] <rww> c3l: I'd leave it alone. You're not going to get an additional benefit from it, and it'll just waste CPU cycles.
[21:40] <c3l> collabra: oh..! then that optino should be removed from the installer, if the user has encrypted the entire system first...
[21:40] <TunaSnax> Hey guys! I am unable to find the xorg.conf file in /etc/X11 on Kubuntu. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I need to add my monitors resolution to the config file
[21:40] <collabra> c3l: i aggree,...
[21:40] <c3l> rww: okay, thanks a lot for your input. stuff on this matter has been really hard to find
[21:41] <c3l> someone should compose an up to date ubuntu wiki entry
[21:42] <guntbert> antivirtel: like ô ?  <ctrl><shift> uf4 <release>
[21:42] <antivirtel> guntbert ô
[21:42] <antivirtel> thanks :D
[21:42] <antivirtel> problem soolved
[21:42] <guntbert> antivirtel: you're welcome :-)
[21:42] <antivirtel> *solved
[21:42] <c3l> guntbert: or you could use the dead ^ key followed by an e
[21:43] <guntbert> c3l: no dead keys here :-), and I guess he wanted it general :-)
[21:43] <antivirtel> c3l for šžǒǒ yeah, but for ^o <--- makes this
[21:43] <antivirtel> :D
[21:43] <c3l> ooh :)
[21:44] <th1> what's a good library to use for playing sound in a C command line program? libao is no good because it cant do flush
[21:44] <ikonia> th1: try ##c++
[21:44] <antivirtel> c3l it works in windows... but here isnt implemented yet:\
[21:45] <c3l> antivirtel: the dead keys work on all characters for me
[21:45] <raven> load balancing possible with ubuntu?
[21:46] <TunaSnax> whats the 'viewport' option in xorg.conf do? Is that for the resolution?
[21:46] <c3l> antivirtel: well not like ^k, but all the reasonable ones
[21:46] <antivirtel> c3l, thats funny, because here not :\
[21:46] <antivirtel> c3l when I writes ^ it recently shows it :D
[21:46] <c3l> antivirtel: might have to do with your keyboard layout
[21:46] <c3l> antivirtel: you mean it shows up directly?
[21:47] <raven> cpu-load-balancing option with ubuntu?
[21:47] <antivirtel> c3l I have hungarian keyboard input, but I want to write sometimes these slovak chars ;)
[21:47] <a13> theabyssdragon: semitones: The magic command that saved the day: sudo apt-get install --reinstall policykit-1. I actually get an authentication prompt when pressing add now. Because of the scarcity of this bug (and only small similarities on launchpad) I will not be filing a bug, and consider it a one-off. I'm currently hoping that this has also fixed another bug on my system that would sometimes not let me shut down my system, but instea
 antivirtel: you mean it shows up directly? <-- yeah
[21:48] <c3l> is so, look in the keyboards layout, there should be one with dead keys. or alter the file in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols but thats not really something youd recommend to the average user
[21:48] <theabyssdragon> a13: glad you figured it out
[21:49] <c3l> antivirtel: then you have dead keys disabled. there most certainly is a layout like "hungarian-with-dead-keys"
[21:50] <solidus-river> hey, i'm having trouble ading a root user to mysql via mysqladmin
[21:50] <Necrosan> there's only one root user
[21:50] <solidus-river> well i'm having trouble getting into it
[21:50] <Necrosan> do you mean granting priveleges to a user to have full access to the database?
[21:50] <waagbo> You have to be root
[21:50] <waagbo> Default password should be blank
[21:50] <Necrosan> privileges
[21:50] <waagbo> Limited to log in locally only
[21:51] <raven> cpu-load-balancing option with ubuntu?
[21:51] <guntbert> !enter | waagbo
[21:51] <c3l> antivirtel: you do the ^ with Altgr 2 right?
 antivirtel: then you have dead keys disabled. there most certainly is a layout like "hungarian-with-dead-keys" << yeah, but I have 6+ variables of death keys :O
[21:52] <waagbo> guntbert: And you just used two lines to tell me that :/
[21:52] <Lateralus> Does anyone know how to use displayport connected monitors in Lucid?
[21:52] <raven> cpu-load-balancing option with ubuntu?
[21:52] <antivirtel> c3l: altgr+2: ˇ; altgr+3: ^
[21:52] <TunaSnax> Hey gents, where in xorg.conf do I add my monitors resolution? 10.04 doesn't have mine by default :(
[21:52] <Lateralus> The monitor does not show up when I use "detect displays" in nvidia's configuration tool
[21:53] <c3l> antivirtel: I mean altgr 3. does any of the 6 dead keys work? what are the characters you want to be dead?
[21:54] <Jack0923> Hello, I don't get a picture when I connect my system to my display any idea?
[21:54] <c3l> antivirtel: instead of AltGr + 3. use Shift+AltGr+3 followed by for instance 'e'
[21:54] <antivirtel> c3l all of the first 3 displays me ^ inmediatlz
[21:54] <waagbo> How are you supposed to open the MSN chat windows in Empathy (10.10). Facebook chat opens by double clicking, but no response on MSN accounts?
[21:55] <collosi> Jack0923: what kind of monitor and connections are you using
[21:55] <antivirtel> ahh c3l, sh+agr+3 makes, nice: ô
[21:55] <antivirtel> thanks :)
[21:55] <Jack0923> HD Samsung display, HDMI calbe
[21:56] <collosi> Jack0923:  you going from HDMI to DVI?
[21:56] <Jack0923> nope, from HDMI to HDMI
[21:57] <c3l> antivirtel: your welcome :) if you have more problems with dead keys, try using shift too. or ask me again. also if you want, I can help you tweak your layout to have the dead keys easier available if you need that. What we cannot tolerate is windows being more suitable for your needs :)
[21:57] <fx> does anyone know why libvirt-bin upstart job does not honour /etc/defaults/libvirt-bin file?
[21:57] <collosi> Jack0923:  so how did you install ubunut?  using another monitor?
[21:57] <antivirtel> but an other question c3l, how have you known this information? :D
[21:57] <Jack0923> correct collois
[21:57] <antivirtel> (and thanks your help c3l and suggestion)
[21:58] <raven> parallel-computing-cluster possible with ubuntu?
[21:58] <uLinux> Jack0923: are you connecting HDMI (pc) to HDMI (monitor)?
[21:58] <collosi> Jack0923:  and the Monitor with no screen, do you know it works correctly on other systems?
[21:58] <uLinux> Jack0923: have you tried to change to AV mode
[21:58] <c3l> antivirtel: Im quite geeky in layouts (im using the speed and ergonomy optimized layout 'colemak') ;) I opened the hungarian layout and looked at it
[21:58] <Jack0923> I am using the display, it works perfekt, on windows 7
[21:59] <antivirtel> "What we cannot tolerate is windows being more suitable for your needs" <-- I learnt it in windows, everyone starts what their groverment supports, ex. Hungary uses M$ stuff... I have been used it for 10 years, but I'm now want to change to OpenSource softwares
[22:00] <twiggy> hey
[22:00] <twiggy> i need help
[22:00] <Auv5> twiggy: With?
[22:00] <collosi> Jack0923:  when you boot into Ubuntu using that display, where does the screen turn black?  for example after grub or after the splash screen
[22:01] <twiggy> the gnome panel on the bottom is freaking out opening hundreds of "opening file manager" windows
[22:01] <Jack0923> no screen at all
[22:01] <twiggy> and my desktop is blank
[22:01] <twiggy> no icons or my bg
[22:01] <twiggy> google is not helping.
[22:01] <c3l> antivirtel: there is nothing stoping you from changing, and if something is behaving like you dont want to, there is normally a reason: what you're used to isnt a standard, here we love standards. and if you still want the old behaviour back, you can always modify ubuntu to meet your needs! (provided no proprietary software is neede, cus' we hate that stuff :) )
[22:01] <crimsonmane> fresh install of ubuntu latest and not even hard wiring gets internet
[22:01] <collosi> Jack0923:  right, but when does no screen at all occur?
[22:01] <Auv5> Try resetting your gnome settings.
[22:02] <twiggy> how do i do that auv5
[22:02] <Auv5> twiggy: http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/
[22:02] <uLinux> Jack0923: today I just tried HDMI to HDMI on Ubuntu I need to change signal do HDMI and then to fix resolution changing to AV signal (dunno why) but it worked fine
[22:02] <uLinux> needed to
[22:02] <Auv5> Try that, see if it makes any difference.
[22:02] <twiggy> thanks
[22:03] <crimsonmane> fresh install of ubuntu latest and not even hard wiring gets internet. what could the problem be?
[22:03] <Jack0923> "occur" from boot no screen
[22:03] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, laptop, desktop, model?
[22:03] <crimsonmane> desktop custom
[22:03] <kamote> anyone using ddosdeflate here
[22:04] <scott_ino> have you had ubuntu installed before without issue?
[22:04] <uLinux> Jack0923: btw if you have a DVI cable connected you should unplug it
[22:04] <collosi> Jack0923:  Have you tried what uLinux is saying, I know you use win 7 on it, but just check it out
[22:04] <raven> parallel-computing-cluster possible with ubuntu?
[22:04] <twiggy> didn't work auv5
[22:04] <Zorael> I have a series of .tiff files that I want to convert to a single paged pdf. How can I do this? (Preferably via terminal)
[22:04] <twiggy> i did the rm -rf .gnome .gnome2 .gconf .gconfd .metacity
[22:04] <crimsonmane> i've never used linux before but really want to. this issue is going to turn me away.
[22:04] <twiggy> then i followed it with a killall gnome-panel
[22:04] <fethio> anyone using ati 10.9 driver with maverick?
[22:04] <raven> COMPUTING-CLUSTER possible with ubuntu?
[22:04] <twiggy> no luck
[22:04] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, It's VERY rare for that, do you know what your network controller is?
[22:05] <crimsonmane> mobo is Intel DG33TL
[22:05] <uLinux> crimsonmane: have you tried to configure the network manually
[22:05] <crimsonmane> the onboard isnt working, but apparently i have to hardwire in order to get my WUSB600N Linksys to work
[22:05] <uLinux> oh ok
[22:05] <Jack0923> my display is only connect with one HDMI cable and it works fine with the other system
[22:05] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, open a terminal from Applications/Accessories/Terminal
[22:05] <twiggy> can somone help me?
[22:05] <crimsonmane> k then what
[22:06] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, then type: lspci
[22:06] <almoxarife> I am seeing chromium crashing at start up just after an update, anyone else?
[22:06] <scott_ino> hit enter
[22:06] <Auv5> twiggy: Did you log out and back in again?
[22:06] <betz> Greetings! I want to add a path to my $PATH, but i get a error, file or folder doesnt exist. I'm sure it does. I do: $PATH=$PATH:/some/path
[22:06] <collosi> Jack0923:  are you dual booting?  so the screen turns off after you select Ubuntu?
[22:06] <twiggy> no, I will try that
[22:06] <betz> Anyone knows what could be wrong?
[22:06] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, then find the part that says "Network Controller" and that's what model etc.. it is
[22:06] <scott_ino> from there yuo ca use that info to search around etc...
[22:07] <crimsonmane> its an intel
[22:07] <Jack0923> I dont have dual boot
[22:07] <antivirtel> c3l linux is suitable for me, because I _want_ to be a (web)programmer, and pro system admin for companies :D
[22:07] <crimsonmane> and no, i cant, because nothing works that online says
[22:07] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, ok make/model gotta be more info than that
[22:07] <twiggy> logging in and out didn't hlep.
[22:07] <crimsonmane> scott the comp is in the other room
[22:07] <crimsonmane> its not easy moving around like that
[22:08] <crimsonmane> for every little thing.
[22:08] <twiggy> all it did was show the default desktop background instead of blank'
[22:08] <crimsonmane> it simply doesnt work. i've been working on it for 10 hours
[22:08] <collosi> Jack0923:  do you know that computer can handle the resolution of the display?
[22:08] <c3l> antivirtel: sweet, youve come to the right place to learn and get help :)
[22:08] <zulax> how do i convert wav to mp3 on ubuntu?
[22:08] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, well like i said, it's rare to have hardwired network controllers not simply work, but in order to help I'd need to know what we're dealing with
[22:08] <Jack0923> yes I do
[22:09] <c3l> !ffmpeg | zulax
[22:09] <familia> cmo instalauna aplicacion que extrai con el gestor de archivadores
[22:09] <crimsonmane> the motherboard is an Intel DG33TL, so from there we can look up the intel nic drivers
[22:09] <c3l> zulax: okay the bot doesnt know it, but ffmpeg is the tool you want for converting media fiels to other formats
[22:09] <uLinux> What's the Document font? I change the size but see no difference.
[22:09] <collosi> Jack0923:  what happens when you boot from the liveCD on that display?  does it work?
[22:10] <Ken8521> zulax, you can also try audacity... pretty sure that would work
[22:10] <collosi> crimsonmane:  open a terminal and type:  lspci    like scott_ino said, then look for a netowork or ethernet controller
[22:10] <uLinux> Jack0923: did you install Ubuntu with another monitor? If yes what resolution were you using?
[22:10] <crimsonmane> coll i did that
[22:10] <crimsonmane> its there
[22:11] <Jack0923> I get only a picture when I use my very old 15 innch display
[22:11] <Jack0923> 800*600
[22:11] <zulax> Ken8521, soundkonverter looked promising, but the process doesnt start up
[22:11] <crimsonmane> in fact here's my original issue. the wireless card works but wont connect to anything. in fact it doesnt see MY router but it sees all my neighbors
[22:11] <collosi> crimsonmane:  now google it and find out what driver you need,  then do a lsmod to see if is is loading
[22:11] <antivirtel> c3l I have only sometimes this big luck :D I have a Konica Minolta bizhub printer, and there is no postscript driver :\ so I cant rebuild a small system with linux, I must have some M$ stuff :D so I'm waiting for the driver, and after that I'll reinstall every machine(but when we can make a small project, I'll use linux multi-seat, what is the best config for small offices)
[22:11] <crimsonmane> !lsmod
[22:12] <uLinux> Jack0923: you could try to disable Graphic card drivers on Ubuntu..?
[22:12] <uLinux> and then boot using  HDMI
[22:12] <crimsonmane> yeah collosi... i've kinda been at this for 10 hours
[22:12] <raven_> COMPUTING-CLUSTER possible with ubuntu?
[22:12] <c3l> !caps | raven_
[22:13] <Wakko10Warner> http://173.86.138.112/ <-- I just made a web page for school. It is not much but it is nice since I made it. Check it out it is running under ubuntu's apache :-D
[22:13] <fasta> Is there any app which I can use to share a webcam between two Linux machines without jumping through hoops?
[22:13] <Jack0923> after getting no screen, I installed the nviade driver but it was no fix
[22:13] <collosi> crimsonmane:  so what network controller do you have?
[22:13] <crimsonmane> "the right one"
[22:13] <coz_> :)
[22:14] <collosi> crimsonmane:  that doesn't make sense
[22:14] <collosi> Jack0923: have you tried booting up in single user mode?
[22:14] <crimsonmane> i've been in here several times a day for 3 days trying to get this to work. i'm a bit pissed to be given the same geese to chase
[22:15] <crimsonmane> and i'm sorry in advance
[22:15] <collosi> crimsonmane:  so what network controller do you have?  then we can google it and see if things are the way they are suppose to be
[22:15] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, does this sound familiar for your network controller, at the leastI would need this.
[22:15] <scott_ino> Intel 82566DC
[22:16] <c3l> antivirtel: oh, really, ubuntu doesnt recognize your printer? thats rare :) stuff like that can be good to have in mind when shopping for new stuff, like printers, if they work in linux. also I have no Idea what's needed for a bussiness setup. I guess you know more than me on that ;) but just ask away here in the channel, im sure someone knows. (make sure you formulate the question well, and all on one line, so its easier ...
[22:16] <c3l> ... to give help) :)
[22:16] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, is this ubuntu 10.04 or 10.10 ???
[22:16] <twiggy> I think the problem is nautilis
[22:16] <amlidbr> join #ubuntu-br
[22:16] <Ken8521> c3l, totally agree.. i research the wazoo out of hardware like that before i buy it....
[22:17] <amlidbr> join#canal
[22:17] <alzie> amlidbr: "/"  "/join #ubuntu-br"
[22:17] <prod-beginner> Anyone have experience in Traffic shaping?
[22:18] <crimsonmane> 10.04 alternate install disc because 10.10 wont work with regular install livecd doesnt even work. frustrating but its install now.
[22:18] <amlidbr> join #ubuntu-br-doc
[22:19] <Ken8521> crimsonmane, so why didn't you try the 10.10 alt. install?
[22:19] <crimsonmane> didnt exist
[22:19] <kexman_> alzie: i foillowed that guid , problem nvidia 640x480
[22:19] <Scunizi> antivirtel: ps drivers are typically sold separate with larger business level printers.. if you really want to continue using that printer then ask a rep the cost on the "module" they have to install.
[22:19] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, See Here: This is a known issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/619841
[22:19] <antivirtel> c3l I wrote today morning to 3 places ( http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/hardware-peripherals/170483-konica-minolta-bizhub-211-driver.html#post809237 ; http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=56152#p325906 ; http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1590592 )
[22:20] <kexman_> but i cant install the driver from the site which i downlaoded , cause = nouveau ! i have libdrm-nouvea1 and the two are incompatible
[22:20] <awesome_guest> hi, how do I view my current user privileges?
[22:20] <triton> buenas noches
[22:20] <alzie> amlidbr: você precisa usar o "/" antes de "# ubuntu-br"
[22:20] <alzie> kexman_ still no luck?
[22:20] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, so it's been fixed in a newer upstream kernel
[22:20] <antivirtel> Scunizi , you mean this: "ask a rep" to contact with the manufacturer?
[22:20] <crimsonmane> ok see that's where i get lost. what am i supposed to do with that link? there's nothing on it that i can act on
[22:21] <Scunizi> kexman_: there is a ppa with the latest nvidia driver available through their repo for a direct install on ubuntu.. check it out.
[22:21] <Scunizi> antivirtel: yes.. a rep that markets that printer in your area.
[22:21] <Scunizi> antivirtel: if it's one of the larger business class lasar/color lasar printers
[22:22] <kexman_> Scunizi: ppa ? what ? where?
[22:22] <collosi> crimsonmane:  you're using 10.04 right?
[22:22] <kexman_> Scunizi: i downloaded the NV*.run file from the site and i need 64bit also ...
[22:22] <crimsonmane> yeah. i understand new upstream kernel means it was fixed in 10.10. i typed that about as fast as you did
[22:22] <crimsonmane> what is lucid and what is maverick?
[22:22] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, so you need to get that kernel version and install it
[22:23] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, lucid=10.04 maverick=10.10
[22:23] <uLinux> they are Ubuntu versions Lucid is 10.04 Maverick is 10.10
[22:23] <antivirtel> Scunizi konica minolta is a large company :D but I dont know why have they done only PCL & GDI driver only.. postscript is an other step, and *nix supports it at all :D
[22:23] <polleri> hi i have a problem with my mousepad on my laptop, the mouse works fine on the log in sreen but after i am logged in the mouse stops working completely and I have no clue what 's going on
[22:23] <antivirtel> *-onlx
[22:23] <antivirtel> y
[22:23] <Scunizi> kexman_: I can't find the link right now.. but PPA are hosted on launchpad and are typically for ubuntu programs.. that's how I solved my install issue with the nvidia driver.. it simply wouldn't install the "old fashioned" way
[22:23] <uLinux> polleri: are you using USB?
[22:23] <crimsonmane> alt download doesnt exist for 10.10
[22:24] <crimsonmane> only livecd
[22:24] <polleri> no the mouse is in the laptop
[22:24] <kexman_> Scunizi: i followed so many guides
[22:24] <crimsonmane> i cant get 10.10 kernel because... no internet!
[22:24] <polleri> uLinux, the mouse is on the laptop
[22:24] <kexman_> apt-get removed so many thing
[22:24] <gilaniali> I have ubuntu installed on my PS3 (never updated it) and connected it to my TV. is there a some software that will let me stream my itunes movies from my Mac OS X to ubuntu?
[22:24] <Scunizi> antivirtel: it's a marketing decision.. the ps module (an actual card that goes into the machine) is a few hundred dollars
[22:24] <frias> hey guys, im new with ubuntu.. i have a problem, when i login, ubuntu does not start, i only get the wallpaper and my mouse, still moveable.. do u know what i can do to fix it?
[22:24] <kexman_> i dunno what else to do know :) i messed my system :) with nvidia :)
[22:24] <kexman_> well not much kde and compiz are running fine
[22:24] <polleri> uLinux, i don't know how to call it in english sorry!
[22:24] <kexman_> but in 640x480 :)
[22:24] <kexman_> glx working wonderfull :D
[22:25] <Scunizi> kexman_: no guide here.. you list the PPA repo in your package manager and refresh.. then look for the driver in the package manager (synaptic)
[22:25] <c3l> antivirtel: unfortunately it seems the printer is unsupported, what that means practically is that no one has had the time or resources to create linux drivers for that HW, it might require use of some proprietary software, in that case you'll never see a driver by the community. and it is unfortunately still not common that HW manufactor make free open drivers. You might have to give up on that printer if you want to use ...
[22:25] <c3l> ... a free system, I know thats not fun to hear, but in the long run stepping away from proprietary software will make it all better :)
[22:25] <awesome_guest> anyone?  I don't have admin privileges on this box and would like to see what I can actually do
[22:25] <alzie> kexman_: or use synaptic and search for nouveau and select for removal
[22:25] <crimsonmane> god why's it gotta be so buggy? i know its free and that's probably why... :( makes me cry
[22:25] <avo> crimsonmane, Why does what have to be so buggy?
[22:25] <kexman_> alzie: i followed a guide that removed some thingys of nouvea sometimes yesterday
[22:25] <crimsonmane> frickin linux.
[22:26] <antivirtel> Scunizi, you mean, this needs not only driver(software part), but some other thing, like a modul(what is a hardware...)?
[22:26] <crimsonmane> avo
[22:26] <crimsonmane> i can't do SHIT
[22:26] <FloodBot3> crimsonmane: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:26] <kexman_> and now all i have id libdrm-nouveau1 but if i remove that then it removes all my X and KDE and everything :)
[22:26] <avo> crimsonmane, Care to explain? Linux is probably the least buggy of any kernel, by the way.
[22:26] <crimsonmane> you must have just arrived. i'll detail it again perhaps you think of something new
[22:26] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, like I said issues with hard-wired LAN are extremely rare
[22:27] <avo> crimsonmane, I have :)
[22:27] <maedox> avo: I don't think he knows what a kernel is
[22:27] <kexman_> very old hw or i cant even think when my pc ethernet didnt worked on linux
[22:27] <Scunizi> antivirtel: that has been my experience in the past.. it's a small piggy back card that's inserted into the copier that gives it ps capability.. typically for access with Mac's.. but will typically work with linux since cups also is part of the backend of the Mac for printing.
[22:27] <avo> maedox, O_o
[22:27] <maedox> :P
[22:27] <c3l> crimsonmane: its easy to say the system suck when you dont understand it
[22:27] <crimsonmane> first off i cant install with LiveCD, have to use alt download. second my wireless card sees everyone else router but cannot see mine nor connect to it even w/o security. third my hardwire lan wont work.
[22:27] <crimsonmane> c31 i understand it
[22:27] <crimsonmane> i used linux for 6 years
[22:28] <crimsonmane> i mean unix
[22:28] <avo> crimsonmane, !enter | crimsonmane
[22:28] <avo> bah
[22:28] <avo> !flood | crimsonmane
[22:28] <crimsonmane> i have been working on this install for 3 days now
[22:28] <kexman_> cant i tell the kernel not to load nouveau driver
[22:28] <scott_ino> avo ;) got the right one the second time around
[22:28] <kexman_> nvidia provides some thingy that it puts in /etc/modprobe.d that should blacklist nouveau
[22:28] <collosi> crimsonmane:  you've been using Unix for 6 years and can't get this working?
[22:28] <Ken8521> crimsonmane, well, i'd start by taking a xannex and relaxing... first,.. is your ESSID hidden?... have you tried broadcasting it until you get your wireless issue resolved?
[22:28] <maedox> crimsonmane: what kind of hardware are you on?
[22:29] <antivirtel> c3l yeah, this things makes me sad... I wanted to ask for other(what is supported) from the company what provides us the publishing things, but I missed it, the "papers" are signed already... :(
[22:29] <avo> crimsonmane, Erm, why exactly can't you use the normal livecd?
[22:29] <crimsonmane> no not BEEN USING i USED it. i havent touched it for 10 years
[22:29] <Ken8521> crimsonmane, well a lot has changed in 10yrs, so that's more or less irrelevant
[22:29] <Ken8521> you dont think you're an apple expert cuz you had a commodore 64 do you?
[22:29] <crimsonmane> ken - i understand it, that's the point
[22:29] <crimsonmane> whether or not i can figure out whats wrong is another story.
[22:29] <avo> Ken8521, Apple == Commodore..?
[22:30] <Ken8521> avo, it was a joke....
[22:30] <alzie> kexman_: I'm not familiar with KDE so I'm not sure if blacllist will fix the problem
[22:30] <Ken8521> apple=commodore.. completely different
[22:30] <kexman_> alzie: no it doesnt iu need to tell at boot to the kernel that i dont want nouveau
[22:30] <kexman_> alzie: any idea how ?
[22:30] <kexman_> kernel param something ?
[22:30] <avo> Ken8521, I realized, but I thought you were making the comparison that UNIX has changed a lot since 10 years ago, not that he was comparing apples (no pun intended) to oranges.. Nevermind though :)
[22:31] <Scunizi> antivirtel: you really want to check your model against an "options" list someplace.. just to validate or invalidate what I've said based on your model
[22:31] <Zorael> Anyone a wiz at imagemagick and convert? I'm converting some files and they end up really small, like 10% of the normal width.
[22:31] <antivirtel> Scunizi you thinks, that may work here? I have some €s for that, because a licensed M$ stuff costs a lots of € :D can you show this "card" ?(or what is the name of the card?)
[22:31] <Ken8521> avo, yeah, bad analogy on my part.
[22:31] <Ken8521> how bout if you're an expert at windows 3.x,  doesn't make you an expert at win 7
[22:31] <collosi> crimsonmane:  ok let's try this again, so your Ethernet Controller is a 82566DC Gigabit correct?
[22:31] <avo> Ken8521, Haha. There we go :)
[22:31] <Scunizi> antivirtel: you got a model number?
[22:32] <crimsonmane> dc-2 revision 2
[22:32] <c3l> antivirtel: awh, thats unfortunate :/ I wish I could help you in some way, but in this case we seem to be stuck. you could try pushing the company to release linux compatible drivers, a driver from the community does not happen over night unless its some really popular piece of HW
[22:32] <antivirtel> Scunizi yeah, I wrote to forums too, but I write here too, so the manufacturer is Konica Minolta, and the model is: bizhub 211
[22:32] <scott_ino> collosi, The issue is regression, and is already fixed in 2.6.35-rc6, he needs a new kernel
[22:32] <crimsonmane> no scott
[22:32] <crimsonmane> doesnt apply. i didnt UPGRADE
[22:33] <crimsonmane> and 10.10 isnt available
[22:33] <antivirtel> c3l, yeah, do you know some sucessable procedures to "push" company to manage that thing?
[22:33] <avo> crimsonmane, What do you mean it isn't availible?
[22:33] <crimsonmane> alternate only for me. remember?
[22:34] <Ken8521> crimsonmane, there's a 10.10 alt. cd
[22:34] <crimsonmane> where?
[22:34] <Ken8521> on the download page?
[22:34] <crimsonmane> nope http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download
[22:34] <avo> crimsonmane, I remember, but you never explained _why_. Also, there has been an alt of 10.10 since forever.
[22:34] <IdleOne> !10.10
[22:34] <Edward_Elric> please helpme to vote
[22:34] <Edward_Elric> http://148.245.35.4/CursoPhp/index.php
[22:34] <Edward_Elric> :D
[22:35] <Edward_Elric> is about ubuntu
[22:35] <Ken8521> crimsonmane, http://mirror.pnl.gov/releases/maverick/
[22:35] <collosi> scott_ino:  correct me if I'm wrong, but he he is using kernel 2.6.32 on lucid not 2.6.35 on maverick
[22:35] <crimsonmane> is that an ALTERNATE because the regular LiveCD -willnot- work on my ssytem. i already have it
[22:35] <avo> Edward_Elric, This channel is for ubuntu tech support, so that's a bit off topic. But I voted :)
[22:36] <scott_ino> collosi, as I understand now.. yes
[22:36] <Ken8521> crimsonmane, did you click the link?.. there's links to the 1.10 alt. cd there
[22:36] <Ken8521> *10.10
[22:36] <JustTerminal> hi...anyone knows how could I change symbolic links icons in my desktop using terminal? and placing them in desktop?
[22:36] <Scunizi> antivirtel: still looking at the specs
[22:36] <crimsonmane> i'd rather know how you found it. yes i see that link in the middle. how did you find that page? moreover, why is it not on the main page?
[22:36] <c3l> antivirtel: no idea. I guess just being reasonable with them will work best. stating that they really should consider supporting the fastest growing OS, allowing their customers greater flexibility or something like that :) but still, it will most probably take time until something happens, and if it does, it will probably only be for teir latest HW
[22:37] <collosi> !ln
[22:37] <alzie> kexman_: During boot hold down the shift key to get to the grub menu. Press the 'e' key to edit the boot command, and go down to the "kernel" line. Add "nouveau.modeset=0" to the end of the line containing "quiet splash", then press Ctrl+x to boot. Nouveau will be disabled for this boot.
[22:37] <avo> crimsonmane, It _is_ on the main page, I just checked.
[22:37] <Ken8521> crimsonmane, on ubuntu.com, after you click download... you'll se a link that says "alternative download locations" and a list of servers.. choose a server, choose the distro, and it will have all the available downloads for that distro
[22:37] <crimsonmane> main page [22:37] <crimsonmane> i dont know where you're going for your link then
[22:38] <Ken8521> crimsonmane, scroll to the bottom
[22:38] <avo> crimsonmane, That is not the correct link. We're talking about the homepage.
[22:38] <Ken8521> you'll see a list of servers
[22:38] <Ken8521> avo, no, thats the correct link
[22:38] <JustTerminal> hi...anyone knows how could I change symbolic links icons in my desktop using terminal? and placing them in desktop?
[22:38] <avo> Ken8521, Then we got to the same place two different ways :)
[22:38] <Ken8521> crimsonmane, do you see that long list of servers?
[22:38] <Ken8521> avo, appears that way.. :)
[22:39] <avo> !patience | JustTerminal
[22:39] <collosi> JustTerminal:  google the ln command
[22:39] <JustTerminal> i did it
[22:39] <JustTerminal> nothing about icons
[22:39] <JustTerminal> i guess thereis some config file i could edit regardin desktop config
[22:39] <antivirtel> c3l, np, I want to find a way with a virtual M$ stuff, what can print our documents, ex: a script always "listens" to a shared dir, and if it contains a new item, it sends its content to the printer, but it is a big hax :D
[22:39] <JustTerminal> but can't find which one
[22:39] <wessel> how can I create a zip file from a folder?
[22:40] <wessel> wessel@wegumar7 ~/workspace $ zip n n.zip
[22:40] <wessel> 	zip warning: name not matched: n.zip
[22:40] <avo> JustTerminal, Have you tried right clicking and going properties?
[22:40] <JustTerminal> yeah i know i could do it with mouse
[22:40] <avo> wessel, Well, you can do it from the GUI.
[22:40] <EvilCoder> Hello.
[22:40] <crimsonmane> that long list of servers is for 10.04 !!! that's where i got mine
[22:40] <JustTerminal> but i want to add that in a script
[22:40] <awesome_guest> avo: where would one ask questions about unix system administration?
[22:40] <Ken8521> crimsonmane, are you paying attention at all.. i'm goin to go slow for you.
[22:40] <EvilCoder> i want the file .profile to be read able but user cannot delete it or write it, what file permission i should place ? any help ,
[22:40] <Ken8521> click one of the north america servers(since I assume you're in the US)
[22:40] <crimsonmane> ken you're the slow one
[22:40] <crimsonmane> go to ubuntu.com
[22:40] <crimsonmane> click download
[22:40] <avo> awesome_guest, I'm not entirely sure, but perhaps #unix?
[22:40] <crimsonmane> click alternate download
[22:41] <Ken8521> crimsonmane, well considering i found the link in 10 seconds, and you can't find it.. i'd disagree
[22:41] <crimsonmane> ITS ONLY 10.04
[22:41] <FloodBot3> crimsonmane: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:41] <Ken8521> crimsonmane, no wonder you're lost, you can't read
[22:41] <crimsonmane> ken that indicates a badly formatted website
[22:41] <collosi> hahaha
[22:41] <avo> crimsonmane, ...
[22:41] <Ken8521> crimsonmane, no, indicates you can't follow instructions
[22:41] <crimsonmane> ok smartass, walk me through it
[22:42] <awesome_guest> kk
[22:42] <Ken8521> crimsonmane, what link are you on?.. get-ubunt/alternative-download?
[22:42] <c3l> antivirtel: yeah, something like that could work. maybe sharing the printer over network. ubuntu supports windows shared storage volumes, it should support network shared printers too. that way you can, as you say, just have to run one windows box managin the printer. or virtually inside linux, but I dont know how that'll with work connecting to a printer from a virtual system
[22:42] <uLinux> !guidelines
[22:42] <Scunizi> antivirtel: strange.. it looks like this printer is totally windows oriented.. although I did see that it might be pcl6 compatible through the network card.. no mention anywhere about postscript, even on google or ebay where you can often find the modules.
[22:42] <crimsonmane> that's a linux download command ken. i'm in a web browser
[22:42] <avo> crimsonmane, The attitude is probably not going to expedite the resolution of your problem..
[22:42] <Ken8521> omg... crimsonmane i give up.

[22:43] <Ken8521> ubuntu.com?

[22:44] <crimsonmane> NO THERE IS NOT
[22:44] <antivirtel> c3l VirtualBox supports bridged card, not only NAT :D so I can do the connection, but the shared printer is the original, so I can't do that easy... I'm in a big "trouble" :\ I wirite an email to the manufacturer
[22:44] <Ken8521> ..
[22:44] <Ken8521> what server did you choose?

[22:46] <Ken8521> lxnski, hold on, we're trying to teach someone who's been using unix for 10yrs, how to browse the internet
[22:46] <crimsonmane> ken i said that link was right. the one you just did. what I get from clicking alt servers is a file list

[22:48] <dawning_> Howdy, I want to remove ubuntu-desktop from my machine that I'm using as a server. I'm fine with the desktop tree, but I don't want all the gui stuff. How to I fully remove everything the ubuntu-desktop meta package refers to?
[22:48] <lxnski> I have a problem with connecting to my Airport Express on my Ubuntu 9.04. My laptop recognizes the wifi station, however when I try to connect nothing happens and then it prompts me again for password. My airport is set on WPA/WPA2 enscryption, and works on the laptop in Windows mode
[22:48]  * jbrouhard just facepalm's and goes on to do other things.
[22:48] <antivirtel> c3l, I can share the same printer, so the client computers needs the driver what printer need, if windows has "virtual printer makeing & linking" solution, I want to know that :D:D:D
[22:48] <D3RGPS31> how do i install ubuntu to an external harddrive while booted into an already installed ubuntu
[22:48] <avo> dawning_, sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop?
[22:49] <crimsonmane> who's shuttleworth?
[22:49] <Ken8521> !shuttleworth | crimsonmane
[22:49] <dawning_> avo: That'd just kill the meta package
[22:49] <Ken8521> i was being a smart aleck
[22:49] <crimsonmane> oh lol
[22:49] <antivirtel> Scunizi It is in the office since 3 months, so it seems to be a new model :D , but... this is not America, these things are delay ;)
[22:49] <crimsonmane> inside joke then
[22:49] <avo> dawning_, Erm, isn't that what you're trying to do..?
[22:49] <c3l> antivirtel: oh thats required.. well Id go for the directory watching with some script on the windows box ;)
[22:50] <crimsonmane> well i'm DL'ing 10.10 with the link the FIRST time you sent it. unfortunately the naming convention for linux is a piece of leetist garbage
[22:50] <purpzey> Can someone tell me if foremost will immediately show files in the output directory or the whole process has to complete first?
[22:50] <consolecowboy> anyone use Album Cover Art Downloader (albumart-qt)? i tried installing, but i get 'TImportError: cannot import name AlbumArtDialogBase
[22:50] <dawning_> avo: I'm trying to remove the packages referenced by the meta package
[22:50] <avo> dawning_, sudo apt-get clean, sudo apt-get autoremove, etc.
[22:50] <Ken8521> consolecowboy, honestly, the best thing i've found, is google images... fast, takes no time at all.
[22:50] <avo> dawning_, Those will do what you're looking for.
[22:50] <dawning_> avo:... I'm not convinced..
[22:50] <gridbag> whats the name of the ubuntu font viewer?
[22:51] <consolecowboy> @ken8521: but say you have 800 albums...
[22:51] <antivirtel> c3l, yeah, but I dont know scripting windows, I started scipting bash, and I think windows isnt so easy to script :\
[22:51] <crimsonmane> oh can i ask a partition question... ubuntu seems to be slow. does having a large partition do that? i was expecting such a lightweight system to be lightening
[22:51] <D3RGPS31> dawning_: what else do you want >.>
[22:51] <Ken8521> consolecowboy, i still like it better.. but i can see where that would be a daunting task
[22:51] <c3l> crimsonmane: the numbered naming is for released thing, stuff that isn released as stable doesnt have a name, they're refered to by their codenamy, but it is indeed confusing
[22:51] <Ken8521> i don't separate my music by album(matter of fact, i group them all under 1 album name)
[22:51] <Ken8521> just different artists.
[22:51] <D3RGPS31> how do i install ubuntu to an external harddrive while booted into an already installed ubuntu >.>
[22:52] <avo> dawning_, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=452038
[22:52] <dawning_> D3RGPS31: I want soemthing like "apt-get actually_remove_everything_from ubuntu-desktop
[22:52] <avo> dawning_, Google works wonders..
[22:52] <dawning_> "
[22:52] <c3l> antivirtel: I have no idea either, all I know is as you say, its limited, try in ##windows
[22:52] <avo> dawning_, That is what the commands I listed above do..
[22:52] <consolecowboy> hmm i dont think i could do that. i have done it manually before, takes me a couple of days
[22:52] <consolecowboy> and its the best way, if you have the time
[22:52] <Metra> hi, is there a channel for "Old hardware" ? ive tryed #oldhardware and no luck
[22:52] <consolecowboy> but i need something more automated
[22:52] <avo> dawning_, You could read the manpage for apt-get/aptitude :)
[22:52] <crimsonmane> so does a large partition (250gb) cause ubuntu to be slow?
[22:52] <RoSSoScript> HI ALL
[22:52] <c3l> crimsonmane: thats not large :)
[22:52] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, no,
[22:52] <avo> crimsonmane, No.
[22:52] <RoSSoScript> !LIST
[22:52] <antivirtel> c3l, this is a giant hax :D:D:D at first I want to contact with konica minolta :D
[22:53] <uLinux> crimsonmane: no
[22:53] <dawning_> avo: Thanks chief. I've been googling around for awhile. There's a ton of ppl that say basically what you said, and a bunch that are like "But.. uhh, that's not doing it"
[22:53] <crimsonmane> alright. well hopefully this 10.10 stuff does the trick. stuff loads slow in ubuntu for no reason then ?
[22:53] <c3l> antivirtel: hehe, yeah thats probably the smartest way to start solving this ;)
[22:53] <uLinux> crimsonmane: maybe your computer is slow?
[22:53] <crimsonmane> ulinux, no
[22:53] <c3l> crimsonmane: stuff doesn load slow normally, probably your HW that is weak
[22:53] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, there's many factors involved in speed. Many have aregued that ubuntu is becoming bloated, but this really isn't the place for that debate.
[22:53] <c3l> crimsonmane: or are you on a live cd?
[22:54] <majkball> I added "export FOO=/bar/" to my .profile But this seems to only be active when I login remotely through a shell... where should I add that line in order to preserve that setting everytime I log on locally?
[22:54] <crimsonmane> for example, with winxp64bit, firefox loads instantly. with ubuntu it takes 10 seconds the first time after.
[22:54] <avo> dawning_, Well, speaking from personal experience, the commands I listed have worked to remove the whole kubuntu desktop... ubuntu-desktop should be no different. Like I said, if you're unsure of what exactly the commands do, instead of guessing, you could read the manpage.. they are here for a reason..
[22:54] <goltoof> can anyone here tell me how to register my irc handle from ubuntu... from irssi perhaps?
[22:54] <D3RGPS31> how do i install ubuntu to an external harddrive while booted into an already installed OS >.<
[22:54] <crimsonmane> i have 2.866ghz quadcore, 4gigs ram, 1666 fsb
[22:55] <c3l> !register | goltoof
[22:55] <crimsonmane> nvidia 9800 gtx+ preoc
[22:55] <crimsonmane> mys sytem aint slow
[22:55] <antivirtel> c3l yeah, but I contacted hungarian partner of this, but we had an argument at the end of the conversation, because they only know "speak about nothing" :D:D
[22:55] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, that's a firefox thing on linux, you cna do things like preload etc..
[22:55] <jamil_1> any help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1590912
[22:55] <avo> dawning_, Furthermore, in my link, there are no "But.. uhh, that's not doing it" comments..
[22:55] <ThomasB2k> Hello, I am thinking about skipping 10.10 and just adding PPAs for the sound menu and other new features, etc. What do you guys think?
[22:55] <crimsonmane> ah ok
[22:55] <crimsonmane> so anything i want to start faster i need to preload.... k
[22:56] <goltoof> ok... i'm in pidgin.  how do i register using pidgin?  every tutorial says "do this do that" and then "type in your handle, etc"  but where do i type it in to??
[22:56] <crimsonmane> oh snap can i turn off the encryption password @ boot without turning off encryption ?
[22:56] <c3l> crimsonmane: I guess thats what windows does alot, slowing down the system in general
[22:56] <vic20> 10.04 seems to be the way to go
[22:56] <crimsonmane> c31: aye
[22:56] <scott_ino> crimsonmane, well there's a few reasons/methods for making your system more lightweight etc...
[22:56] <Jordan_U> crimsonmane: You can't have secure encrytption without having to enter your password to decrypt it, no.
[22:57] <c3l> crescendo: uuh, then thers no point of having the encryptino. also you need to enter the passphrase to decrypt. remove the encrytpion if you dont want it
[22:57] <goltoof> or what's another irc client better than pidgin?
[22:57] <uLinux> goltoof: xchat
[22:57] <crimsonmane> i would hope to enter user password to decrypt instead of boot pword and login pword
[22:57] <scott_ino> goltoof, xchat
[22:57] <avo> goltoof, I use xchat-gnome
[22:57] <miriam_> hi all!
[22:57] <goltoof> k.. i'll try
[22:57] <uLinux> goltoof: btw pigdin is not an irc client
[22:57] <c3l> goltoof: try xchat, thats a good and easy client for irc on linux
[22:58] <c3l> !irc | goltoof
[22:58] <miriam_> how can I automatically launch a downloaded application in firefox
[22:58] <Jordan_U> uLinux: Yes it is, it's just not a dedicated (or particularly good) one.
[22:58] <crimsonmane> anyhoo, i forgot that dudes name. but thanks for the link to 10.10. if you never see me again its because i quit trying. and tell whoever is in charge of the website and naming conventions that they really need to think about new users a little bit.
[22:58] <dawning_> avo: So, I found an actual solution that works here: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekdekarmic
[22:58] <goltoof> it has an option for adding an irc account, which makes me assume that it is also an irc client... but since i can't get it to work then I guess not :)
[22:58] <miriam_> when I double click "launch application" window appears
[22:58] <Ken8521> it's been a long time since i was that frustrated here..lol
[22:59] <avo> dawning_, How exactly do you think that is different than my/the thread's solution?
[22:59] <majkball> I added "export FOO=/bar/" to my .profile But this seems to only be active when I login remotely through a shell... where should I add that line in order to preserve that setting everytime I log on locally?
[22:59] <lxnski> Can somebody help me out with my airport express WPA?
[22:59] <dawning_> avo: Well, as horrifically ugly as that is, it works
[22:59] <miriam_> that is to say, when I double click on the downloaded element (in the downloads window of firefox)
[22:59] <avo> dawning_, And had you tried my commands?
[22:59] <miriam_> every downloaded file)
[22:59] <dawning_> The stuff from the threads, well, I haven't had any luck with it, and evidently, neither have others
[23:00] <miriam_> "launch application" window is then displayed
[23:00] <miriam_> this used to be a bug in ubuntu 8.04 I think
[23:00] <uLinux> Jordan_U: "Pidgin is a graphical, modular Instant Messaging client" not dedicated exclusively to IRC so i dont consider it an IRC client
[23:00] <avo> dawning_, I would actually be very interested in exactly which threads people weren't successful. A link or two would be greatly appreciated.
[23:00] <miriam_> but I don't know how to solve it
[23:00] <dawning_> avo: "sudo apt-get clean, sudo apt-get autoremove, etc." - yes, I tried that.
[23:00] <dawning_> That kind of approach seemed to used to work, I used to go it that route
[23:01] <dawning_> but I guess something changed
[23:01] <avo> interesting
[23:01] <antivirtel> c3l and Scunizi thanks your support at all, here is midnight, so I want to go sleep :D bye
[23:01] <dawning_> avo: You got it, coming up
[23:01] <goltoof> not solely an irc client, but commonly employed since it connects to everything
[23:01] <goltoof> ok... i'm in xchat-gnome,   where do I type the registration command to register my handle?!
[23:02] <Ken8521> lxnski, do you know what chipset is on the airport?
[23:02] <avo> goltoof, /register nickserv identify HANDLE PASSWORD
[23:02] <dawning_> avo: This for starters: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-248457.html
[23:02] <uLinux> goltoof: first you need to connect to freenode.. and then type register commands
[23:02] <raven> computing-cluster possible with ubuntu?
[23:02] <c3l> antivirtel: good night, and good luck with your printer adventure :)
[23:02] <goltoof> hm.. thought it was
[23:02] <lxnski> Ken8521, what does chipset mean? *sorry*
[23:02] <Ken8521> goltoof, do it on the main window, in case you screw up.. you don't broadcast your password to the channel
[23:03] <Ken8521> lxnski, open a terminal and type "lspci" no quotes(lowercase L) and hit enter... and look for your wireless card there
[23:03] <darkkrai> what is the dvd codec for most software that can be downloaded online?
[23:03] <goltoof> awww.. says it's already in use :(
[23:03] <goltoof> no way
[23:03] <Ken8521> darkkrai, libdvdcss..
[23:03] <miriam_> hi people, does anybody know this?
[23:03] <darkkrai> its a legal free to play torrent, but I cant mount it :/
[23:03] <darkkrai> okay
[23:03] <avo> dawning_, Hmm. Well that's a bummer. I guess this is the problem with tech forums.. things go out-of-date super quickly. Though 4 years shouldn't have changed anything.
[23:03] <Bilange> hi. is there an equivalent to the "xev" event but to detect keypresses (especially alt/meta, ctrl and such) but targeted for shell only (no X)?

[23:04] <miriam_> how can I launch or process a file from firefox, as if I were in nautilus
[23:04] <dawning_> avo: Well, I dunno. I'm a bit confused because I USED to remove all that desktop stuff easily, but from what I've gathered from some gooling, man page surfing and trial and error is that I have to type in all the packages, which doesn't really make sense
[23:04] <scott_ino> avo, wasn't asking lol sorr
[23:05] <scott_ino> not what iw as trying to do
[23:05] <lxnski> ken8521, yes my Broadcom STA Wireless Driver is listed there
[23:05] <dawning_> avo: I still think there's an easy solution
[23:05] <miriam_> firefox does not recognize file types
[23:05] <dawning_> avo: But whatever
[23:05] <Ken8521> lxnski, ok, highlight it, and click activate
[23:05] <goltoof> fopen
[23:05] <Ken8521> lxnski, then it's probablyg onna install some stuff
[23:05] <miriam_> in the downloads windows I mean
[23:05] <c3l> Marine_: just type the local path in the url bar, but I dont think you can modify files via firefox, only view them
[23:05] <lxnski> ken8521, it says activated and currently in use
[23:05] <avo> dawning_, Hmm. I have generally found that removing a meta package and then autoremove/clean does the trick, but perhaps there's something special about ubuntu-desktop
[23:05] <raven> computing-cluster possible with ubuntu?
[23:05] <Ken8521> lxnski, have you restarted since you activated it?
[23:06] <vic20> lxnski: try installing the  bcmwl-kernel-source  package
[23:06] <lxnski> ken8521, yes numerous times, I have been seeking a solution to this problem for quite some time
[23:06] <emorris> hi, is aptitude planned to be left out by default in 10.10?
[23:06] <Ken8521> lxnski, open synaptic.. sys/admin/synaptic package manager
[23:06] <lxnski> vic20, can you please give me the command to install this package?
[23:06] <avo> emorris, It is indeed.
[23:06] <vic20> sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source
[23:06] <lxnski> ken8521, open
[23:07] <Ken8521> lxnski, do a search for bcmwl-kernel-source
[23:07] <vic20> then reboot
[23:07] <Cyrille_> irc.recycled-irc.net
[23:07] <dawning_> avo: Yeah, maybe, first time(s) I nuked it, it was an accident and that really sucked. Maybe that impacted others too and someone's done something weird there
[23:07] <Ken8521> lxnski, did it come up?
[23:07] <dawning_> avo: kinda makes sense that people aren't generally gonna wanna nuke that
[23:07] <lxnski> ken8521, no it did not
[23:08] <Ken8521> lxnski, ok.. close synaptic...
[23:08] <emorris> avo, what's the thinking behind it? I always thought that aptitude was way better than apt-get
[23:08] <Ken8521> lxnski, just to be clear, the machine is online right now, right?
[23:08] <lxnski> ken8521, I am connected through ethernet so I could seek help from you guys
[23:08] <Ken8521> lxnski, ok... listen
[23:08] <Ken8521> close synaptic
[23:08] <lxnski> k
[23:08] <Ken8521> lxnski, go to system/admin/software sources
[23:09] <lxnski> ken8521, k
[23:09] <Ken8521> on the first tab, make sure all the boxes at the top are checked
[23:09] <Ken8521> on the "other software tab"
[23:09] <Ken8521> check all of thsoe boxes
[23:09] <dawning_> avo: Thanks for the help. Toodles.
[23:09] <Ken8521> lxnski, copy?
[23:10] <lxnski> ken8521, they were checked
[23:10] <avo> emorris, That is somewhat in debate. I personally "grew up" in the last year using apt-get, but after a little research and some nasty dependency hell issues, I switched to aptitude
[23:10] <Ken8521> on both tabs?
[23:10] <vic20> lxnski: U may install it from synaptic too. Just search for bcmwl-kernel-source and select it for install
[23:10] <Ken8521> vic20, it's nt there.. thats what we're working through now.. pay attention.. :)
[23:10] <lxnski> yes
[23:10] <vic20> ahh
[23:10] <vic20> ok
[23:10] <Ken8521> lxnski, ok, click close, and you should be prompted to reload... click reload
[23:10] <avo> emorris, Aptitude has more advanced conflict resolution. As for why it was left out, it is because of space constraints. Removing it freed up something like 17 MB.
[23:10] <vic20> it's on the install CD
[23:10] <Ken8521> vic20, don't complicate this.
[23:11] <lxnski> ken8521, copy
[23:11] <Ken8521> lxnski, is it reloading?
[23:11] <avo> emorris, Though I know the first command I'll be running on a maverick box is sudo apt-get install aptitude :D
[23:11] <lxnski> ken8521, yes its finished
[23:11] <Ken8521> lxnski, ok, now go back to synaptic
[23:11] <lxnski> k
[23:12] <Ken8521> lxnski, search for bcmwl-kernel-source
[23:12] <vic20> ok
[23:12] <Ken8521> it should come up now
[23:12] <lxnski> it still does not come up :(
[23:12] <Ken8521> lxnski, ?...
[23:12] <lxnski> ken8521, and all boxes were checked :(
[23:13] <goltoof> any other irc beside freenode i should register?
[23:13] <avo> goltoof, Depends what you're looking for :)
[23:13] <uLinux> ofc
[23:13] <lxnski> ken8521, yes ken, it did not come up :(
[23:13] <goltoof> just to keep anyone else from registering as me
[23:13] <Ken8521> lxnski, did you install ubuntu from CD?
[23:14] <Ken8521> or from USB?
[23:14] <lxnski> ken8521, correct from a iso package I got with Linux for dummies which I burned onto the cd
[23:14] <Ken8521> lxnski, do you know what version of linux it is?
[23:14] <lxnski> ken8521, ubuntu 9.04
[23:14] <Ken8521> ok..
[23:14] <Ken8521> lxnski, can i make a suggestion
[23:15] <lxnski> yes
[23:17] <uLinux> Why my "Login as" at Login settings shows 3 users? It shows 'my username', Proxy and (null)?
[23:17] <tarek_> hello people, i just have freshly installed xubuntu and have a problem with the resolution
[23:17] <tarek_> my nvidia card always gives me a low resolution, so i change it back to the desired resolution (which works) but after a new boot i get the old default resolution
[23:17] <tarek_> any idea y?

[23:19] <osaris> can one have multiple versions of libc6 installed?
[23:19] <ikonia> raven: what ?
[23:19] <ikonia> osaris: not really no (you can, but managing it is almost impossible)
[23:20] <osaris> :( libc6-dev: Depends: libc6 (= 2.11.1-0ubuntu7) but 2.11.1-0ubuntu7.2 is to be installed
[23:20] <ikonia> osaris: check your repos
[23:20] <ejv> tarek_: have you considered putting an option in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf for the desired resolution?
[23:20] <cypherround> hello
[23:20] <ejv> !hi | cypherround
[23:21] <cypherround> how's everyone doing?
[23:21] <raven> ikonia, i need cpu power of several machines
[23:21] <ejv> !welcome | cypherround
[23:21] <ikonia> raven: what are you trying to do ? (for what reason)
[23:21] <cypherround> thank you
[23:21] <uLinux> dammit (ot) how did i disconnect?
[23:21] <ejv> !hello | cypherround
[23:21] <ejv> i give up
[23:21] <ejv> lol
[23:21] <tarek_> ejv: something like " Option         "metamodes" "1280x1024 +0+0""?
[23:21] <raven> ikonia, ffmpeg video conversions
[23:21] <ejv> tarek_: i'd consult almighty google, but yea that looks close
[23:22] <ikonia> raven: ok, you're better off just using one machine for that due to how it works in hunks
[23:22] <pankaj_sharma> does YAST work in UBUNTU?
[23:22] <ikonia> pankaj_sharma: no
[23:22] <tarek_> ejv: that doesn't work
[23:22] <pankaj_sharma> ikonia: ok
[23:22] <maco> pankaj_sharma: no
[23:22] <miriam_> file association problem on firefox downloads
[23:22] <pankaj_sharma> ikonia: how to setup dns then?
[23:22] <miriam_> can anyone help?
[23:23] <ikonia> pankaj_sharma: use the network-admin tool
[23:23] <ikonia> pankaj_sharma: system->administration
[23:23] <cypherround> does anyone have any experience with building a virtualbox server? I got some old computer hardware around and just bought a new 500gb hard drive and curious if I'll be able to use my motherboard and the amount of memory I got to do it sufficiently enough
[23:23] <osaris> ikonia: trying to figure out what setup the admin did, its apt pinning
[23:23] <pankaj_sharma> ikonia: ok
[23:23] <ikonia> cypherround: if you have a cpu that supports virtualisation
[23:24] <ejv> cypherround: plenty of people have, come back later once you have the thing assembled and are actually attempting it.
[23:24] <ikonia> osaris: check the repos, make sure only the stable ones are enabled,
[23:24] <vic20> miriam_, what's happening
[23:24] <miriam_> firefox does not recognize any file type
[23:24] <miriam_> of the files that I downloaded
[23:24] <vic20> the files that you download?
[23:24] <cypherround> is there a website that I could find that info more easily? I just started thinking of this idea so haven't had much time to search I'll start now unless anyone has suggestions
[23:24] <miriam_> in the "downloads" list

[23:26] <vic20> try that
[23:26] <ikonia> pankaj_sharma: what about it ?
[23:26] <vic20> cd ~/.mozilla/firefox
[23:26] <vic20> then ls

[23:28] <nafta> hello, I want to install ubuntu on my laptop, its a 64 bits processor laptop, but when i want to download....I see the message...Not recommended for daily desktop usage....O-o ...wtf is this? thanks a lot.
[23:28] <vic20> rename the file mimeTypes.rdf to mimeTypes.rdf.miriam
[23:28] <miriam_> you maybe mean it's something related to the mimetypes
[23:28] <vic20> mv mimeTypes.rdf mimeTypes.rdf.miriam
[23:28] <miriam_> I supposed you were going to say that :)
[23:28] <LucasNeto> ejv I check alsa mixer
[23:28] <miriam_> ok
[23:28] <miriam_> I'll try that
[23:29] <vic20> then restart firefox
[23:29] <miriam_> ok
[23:29] <miriam_> :D
[23:29] <nafta> I do not understand..
[23:29] <ejv> nafta: first off, this is a family friendly channel, no bad language, second, it's indeed fine for daily usage on a laptop, you should be fine.
[23:29] <nafta> oh, sorry..
[23:29] <nafta> I come from efnet...so I spose you understand..
[23:29] <nafta> hehe..
[23:29] <pankaj_sharma> ikonia:where is dns server configuration file?
[23:29] <ejv> proceed with your installation.
[23:29] <bastidrazor> pankaj_sharma: /etc/resolv.conf
[23:30] <miriam_> ok vic20 then I'll come back soon, since I'm typing from firefox
[23:30] <pankaj_sharma> bastidrazor: ok
[23:30] <vic20> ahh
[23:30] <nafta> ok..hrmm....my laptop is my main computer...I use it for work...most of it php/html programming ejv am I pointing in the right direction?
[23:30] <ikonia> pankaj_sharma: use the network admin tool, it will make it cleaner
[23:30] <vic20> ok.
[23:30] <pankaj_sharma> ok
[23:30] <ejv> LucasNeto: and? what sound card do you have? what does ubuntu think you have?
[23:30] <ejv> LucasNeto: is the volume up? are your speakers on?
[23:30] <nafta> ejv that last thing was for you...
[23:31] <ejv> nafta: you can code on it, sure, if that's what you're asking.
[23:31] <miriam_> here I am again
[23:31] <vic20> any help?
[23:31] <miriam_> but the problem is still there
[23:31] <vic20> hummm
[23:32] <LucasNeto> ejv: 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)
[23:32] <nafta> thing is, I'm going to use ubuntu intesivly...as my main computer...but I don't do any fancy stuff....like..."photoshop" or "autocad" I just program...but that little message scares the hell out of me....because of stability issues I spose....
[23:32] <vic20> I can't thing of anything else
[23:32] <miriam_> what happens in my opinnion
[23:32] <ejv> LucasNeto: looks like a fairly common onboard audio chipset, pastebin lscpi -k
[23:32] <vic20> I've got this problem with Iceweasel
[23:32] <miriam_> is that firefox does not call nautilus
[23:32] <ikonia> nafta: nothing to worry about, I've logged a bug to get that message removed
[23:32] <vic20> try to download Firefox from official site instead of Ubuntu repositories
[23:33] <ikonia> vic20: no
[23:33] <ikonia> that will cause a conflict
[23:33] <miriam_> I mean, I can perfectly launch e.g.googleearth.bin from nautilus,
[23:33] <nafta> oh nice...very good log...because that message is a bit scary :P
[23:33] <gyyg_> how can I stream netflix on ubuntu?
[23:33] <miriam_> but none of that from firefox "downloads" list
[23:33] <vic20> ikonia, yes, it will
[23:34] <miriam_> you understand what I mean, don'tya
[23:34] <duiu> I'm trying to fix a screwed up kernal and I need to run an update-initramfs off a live cd, but it won't let me because its "read only media" despite the fact I mounted my root and proc to their respective locations. Why?
[23:34] <ikonia> vic20: so don't suggest installing a package that will create a conflict
[23:34] <LucasNeto> ejv, and then...
[23:34] <ryokea> gyyg_: You can't yet.
[23:34] <nafta> well...excelent....thanks a lot to both of you...I'll download the 64 bits version..
[23:34] <ejv> LucasNeto: share the link with us here...
[23:34] <vic20> miriam, yes. i've got that problem
[23:34] <miriam_> I remembered this problem some years ago
[23:34] <ejv> duiu: did you chroot?
[23:34] <miriam_> and I solved it
[23:34] <LucasNeto> 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)
[23:34] <LucasNeto> 	Kernel driver in use: HDA Intel
[23:34] <LucasNeto> 	Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel
[23:34] <ejv> no
[23:34] <miriam_> but I don't remember how
[23:35] <ejv> i said pastebin...
[23:35] <duiu> ejv: no, how/what does do
[23:35] <miriam_> I think I had to type some command like apt://...
[23:35] <LucasNeto> sorry
[23:35] <nafta> any of you know if the 32bits kernel will allow me to throw 4gb ram to it?
[23:35] <ejv> well damage is done
[23:35] <nafta> or is it the same stuff as windows?
[23:35] <vic20> U can manually associate most file types with nautilus
[23:35] <jchen12> q
[23:35] <ejv> LucasNeto: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[23:35] <miriam_> yeah right
[23:35] <benbro> do I need to add the universe repository manually on mavrick?
[23:35] <ejv> LucasNeto: read that link thoroughly
[23:35] <uLinux> What is Proxy and (null) users?
[23:35] <vic20> it worked for me
[23:36] <LucasNeto> ejv thanks man sorry any disturb
[23:36] <vic20> don't U like chromium?
[23:36] <miriam_> so how could I just make firefox call nautilus to launch any file
[23:36] <miriam_> I think the key is there
[23:36] <motobuzz> nafta: you need to install pae kernel
[23:36] <nafta> thing is that I no longer have a license of windows...and I basically hate using pirated software....so...I need to migrate to open source...
[23:36] <nafta> excelent.
[23:36] <nafta> thanks.
[23:36] <ejv> LucasNeto: no problem, people don't like others flooding errors and reports in the channel, always pastebin
[23:37] <benbro> there is a package for maverick but apt-get install opencv can't find it: http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/maverick/opencv
[23:37] <benbro> am I missing something?
[23:37] <LucasNeto> i new here... next time i will not do that again
[23:37] <ejv> duiu: chrooting switches the location of your / directory for your shell, you need to chroot your ubuntu installation, so that when you run update-initramfs, that it's updating your ubuntu installation, and not the temporary live-cd (which will inevitably fail)
[23:37] <vic20> miriam. I'm looking here, and I believe it's not that easy with current version of firefox
[23:38] <miriam_> hummm, ok vic20
[23:38] <amaurea> Hi! When I try to reinstall a package I have (ktorrent), I am told that it cannot be authenticated. What causes this?
[23:38] <ejv> duiu: mkdir /mnt/ubuntu; mount /dev/sdX /mnt/ubuntu; chroot /mnt/ubuntu /bin/bash/; update-initramfs;
[23:39] <ryokea> amaurea: gpg key not added usually
[23:39] <duiu> ejv: thanks will do
[23:39] <JustTerminal> If i say: ~/.nautilus/metafiles/file:%2F%2F%2Fhome%2F$USER%2FDesktop.xml anyone knows what im talking about?
[23:40] <vic20> miriam. check in Preferences/Applications. The file types already there U can change to nautilus choosing option "open with" (My system is in portuguese, so the exact words may be different)
[23:40] <amaurea> ryokea: The warning went away when I did a database update in synaptic. That's surprising, isn't it?
[23:41] <ryokea> amaurea: oh? cool, gotta love easy fixes
[23:41] <miriam_> ok vic20
[23:41] <ArtArfon> JustTerminal: A needless filepath and file naming scheme.
[23:42] <ejv> duiu: if your boot is on a seperate partition, you'll need to naturally mount that as well, for the update to work
[23:42] <benbro> why does "apt-get install opencv" can't find the package on maverick?
[23:42] <plainas> So, I want to make a .deb package wich basically deploys a couple of scripts in some location visible to users' environment, a man page, and a couple of gnome shorcuts... I have a lot of questions: like: where wouls the scripts go?
[23:42] <ejv> duiu: example: mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/ubuntu/boot
[23:42] <amaurea> ryokea: by the way, why is the version in the repository so old? The newest one is 4.something, while the one in the repository is 3.4, from half a year ago or so
[23:42] <ejv> duiu: then chroot
[23:42] <ejv> duiu: good luck
[23:42]  * ejv afk
[23:42] <ikonia> benbro: maverick chat in #ubuntu+1
[23:43] <Zorael> How can I make a bash script stop until the user presses a key?
[23:43] <benbro> ikonia: thanks
[23:43] <duiu> ejv: its going already, I just had to mount /var and /proc separately
[23:43] <dstryr> Im trying to install a server operation system on a dell poweredge and it is telling me that it cant detect my disk drives
[23:43] <ryokea> amaurea: the repos are always behind on releases due to the fact they test all software on the current ubuntu version before adding them in
[23:43] <ArtArfon> JustTerminal: If its $usrr $group $etcetcetc the filesystem will tell this. Looks like Novell's odd ways.
[23:43] <dstryr> can anyone help?
[23:43] <dstryr> it wants me to select the driver
[23:43] <ryokea> amaurea: if you want the latest, you will have to find a deb for it or get used to installing from source
[23:43] <JustTerminal> artarfon: the thing is that i want to set icon placement in desktop via terminal...i thought i could do it by editing that file...but seems i ain't got that file there...so...do you how could i place icons on dekstop via terminal?
[23:44] <raven> what is the "apt-get" in rpm-systems (fedora core...)?
[23:44] <maco> raven: yum
[23:44] <amaurea> ryokea: ok
[23:44] <plainas> Zorael, if you run it on a terminal Ctrl+c would do it
[23:44] <NeT_DeMoN> !grub2
[23:44] <hdgc> #ubuntu+1
[23:44] <Zorael> plainas: I want the script to pause, not terminate
[23:44] <dstryr> it doesnt make sense that now the ubuntu cd cant see the drives
[23:44] <ikonia> raven: are you using ubuntu or fedora ?
[23:44] <dstryr> but it did yesterday
[23:44] <vic20> miriam, another suggestion would be purge firefox from synaptic, then erase your .mozilla folder. Then reinstall Firefox again from synaptic. I believe you will loose all your bookmars and cofigurations.
[23:44] <plainas> Zorael, wait for input then
[23:45] <raven> what is the "apt-get" in rpm-systems (fedora core...)?
[23:45] <ryokea> amaurea: once you get used to it, installing from source is pretty simple
[23:45] <goltoof> what the best option for a media server?
[23:45] <ArtArfon> JustTerminal: The position should be as the initial user placed it. You can change the image atleast.
[23:45] <ikonia> raven: are you using ubuntu or fedora
[23:45] <vic20> bookmarks and configurations :)
[23:45] <miriam_> ok c u!
[23:45] <raven> ikonia, fedora on a second system
[23:45] <vic20> ok
[23:45] <miriam_> thx for the help
[23:45] <vic20> bye
[23:45] <ikonia> raven: ok, then try the channel #fedora
[23:45] <ArtArfon> GNOME Rules! (Thank you!)
[23:46] <plainas> Zorael, google:shellscript input
[23:46] <JustTerminal> im writing a script to execute after installing ubuntu...its important for me to include in that script where icons should be places...any idea?
[23:46] <JustTerminal> placed
[23:46] <Zorael> plainas: All right, thanks
[23:46] <gh0st> zsrxdtfcyvgubhinjmkl,;'.
[23:47] <plainas> JustTerminal, could you rephrase please? i did not understand
[23:47] <ArtArfon> JustTerminal: No Justin, just change the desktop icon if you like and replicate it to the other boxes. Maybe the positioning accompanies it.
[23:47] <mmmm> xdcc send #0003
[23:47] <ikonia> mmmm: please don't
[23:48] <plainas> ok, is there any channel specialiazed in common development in ubuntu?
[23:49] <ikonia> plainas: in what way ?
[23:49] <JustTerminal> i am writing a script to be run after ubuntu is installed in a computer. This script would create some .desktop files in desktop and I need to place that files(icons) in a specific position
[23:49] <plainas> ikonia, in a way that the question i made a few minutes ago would get some atention
[23:49] <ikonia> plainas: can you expand on the question as it's not clear
[23:49] <aeon-ltd> JustTerminal: why not just remastersys your own iso?
[23:50] <ikonia> plainas: and you don't need the smart attitude,
[23:50] <Bob_> hello maby u guys can help me i wanna clone my windows so i can slide it on a older harddrive so i can dedicate my new harddrive totall to linux is there any freeware capable of doing that ?..
[23:50] <plainas> ikonia ???? i didn't intend so, just asking very naturally
[23:50] <JustTerminal> aeon-ltd....gimme some more light plz...what u talking bout?
[23:50] <ubuntu> hi can any one help me I am using the live cd because my ubuntu installation won't boot up after the post screen
[23:50] <bazhang> Bob_, try ##windows
[23:50] <phil_in_london> JustTerminal, the destination for your files is  ~/Desktop
[23:51] <ikonia> plainas: can you expand on the question, it's not actually clear what your asking in terms of "general development"
[23:51] <aeon-ltd> JustTerminal: remastersys, allows one to create a carbon copy  install iso of a current system, in your case with the files moved to where they need to be
[23:51] <plainas> i was not refering to that question
[23:51] <aeon-ltd> Bob_: clonezilla
[23:51] <ikonia> plainas: then can you repeat the question as I didn't see it
[23:51] <JustTerminal> aeon-ltd: but that script is to be used in different kind of computers...not just as a backup of mine
[23:51] <dstryr> to see if i configured raid 1 correctly i would just unplug the first drive and see if everything boots correctly right?
[23:51] <plainas> So, I want to make a .deb package wich basically deploys a couple of scripts in some location visible to users' environment, a man page, and a couple of gnome shorcuts... I have a lot of questions: like: where wouls the scripts go?
[23:51] <Bob_> awesome aeon-ltd is it free?..
[23:51] <plainas> ikonia, there you go
[23:52] <aeon-ltd> JustTerminal: oh ok, ask the channel for more help on the scripting then,
[23:52] <ikonia> plainas: ok, so there is a guide on https://help.ubuntu.com on how to do the basic packaging, as yours is script and a manpage that should be quite easy to use as an example
[23:52] <JustTerminal> thanks anyway
[23:52] <aeon-ltd> Bob_: yeah, but your gonna need another medium like a exxternal hdd
[23:52] <Bob_> but the hardrive i wanna install it to in already in my pc
[23:52] <plainas> manpage is easy yes, i shouldn't have included that
[23:52] <JustTerminal> phil: i know...
[23:53] <Bob_> is it still possable?..
[23:53] <plainas> but for example... scripts... where do they go?
[23:53] <ikonia> plainas: the guides pretty good
[23:53] <JustTerminal> but i meant the X an Y position in the desktop
[23:53] <bazhang> Bob_, try clonezilla support or ##windows
[23:53] <aeon-ltd> Bob_: is it larger capacity or the same as the old hdd?
[23:53] <ikonia> plainas: the scripts go where ever you want in the "source" tree, you just use the install configuration to put them where you want on the file system at in stlal
[23:53] <ikonia> plainas: have a look at the guide, as you've got an easy example, it should be straight forward to work through
[23:53] <Bob_> lower but the harddrive i have is big enough for everytign i have installed
[23:54] <plainas> ikonia, can you link it? i'm not finding it through google
[23:54] <ikonia> plainas: https://help.ubuntu.com
[23:54] <aeon-ltd> Bob_: then yeah it should be fine, check the clonezilla website for more details
[23:55] <Bob_> aeon-let you are a saint...
[23:55] <plainas> ikonia, which page in particular are you refering to?
[23:55] <ikonia> search for packaging
[23:55] <Bob_> aeon-ltd  u are a saint**
[23:55] <aeon-ltd> Bob_: thanks i hope it works out
[23:55] <plainas> only document i can find concerning this topic refers to ubuntu 6.10.... not that it's not usefull, but i mean... it's 4 years old
[23:55] <Bob_> ill let you know
[23:55] <JustTerminal> where the hell does gnome store desktop icons position???? argh!
[23:56] <jamil_1> hello, is  it possible that for each packet(i don't if it is correct to say so) that leaves my system, it is checked for correct proxy authentication info and appended to it if not found ?
[23:57] <plainas> ikonia, no?
[23:57] <kermit> jamil_1: transparent proxy?
[23:58] <kermit> jamil_1: but a regular proxy should do that just fine
[23:58] <ikonia> plainas: no?
[23:59] <plainas> ikonia, can you link to the guide you talked about?
[23:59] <ArtArfon> Dude! I saw that ballmer guy in the news as he visited Sweden... again. Looks like he needs to go relax or something as always (Looks like some kind of vampire:)
[23:59] <ikonia> plainas: use the search in https://help.ubuntu.com
[23:59] <bazhang> !ot | ArtArfon
[23:59] <plainas> ikonia, as i said before, i can't find it
