Go to System -> Administration -> Software Sources [00:01] Who was poutine? [00:01] who is poutine? [00:01] that is strange [00:01] I have installed a newer version of alsa on my asus netbook to try and fix the mic. If I upgrade to ubuntu 10.10 will alsa revert to ubuntu 10.10 alsa? [00:01] poutine find me disgusting and also ugly [00:01] lol [00:01] poutine is someone who loves Ubuntu users :D [00:01] but he "doesnt want to be rude" [00:01] sebsebseb: Did you look at the gparted screenshot I posted? (sorry, using irssi and it's difficult to follow conversation) [00:02] blue1 yeah but to keep ppl with a higher level of anxeity 11.11.11, then 12.12.12 and then 12.21.12 like in that 2012 movie [00:02] ADASJHDKJASDHKJASD [00:02] poutine is a uniquely canadian thing - just like sonoran dogs here.

[00:02] noone? jumping to begin/end in command line history? Howto? [00:02] Blue1: I never liked poutine, sooo greasy, but delicious, it gets slimy after it gets cold [00:02] sandyd: no way, i apt-get remuve libapache2-php5 and install and no [00:03] i did that still no luck === adrian is now known as Guest28240 [00:03] plitter: how did you install it [00:03] luisgrin: you like Harry Potter? [00:03] sebsebseb: i dont NOW [00:03] happy 10-10-10 all [00:03] =) [00:03] RB support plz [00:04] luisgrin: why have you got one called 7 as well? [00:04] harry potter that's how my granpa named my grandma, she has big round harry potter glasses [00:04] luisgrin: nothing wrong with likeing Harry Potter by the way :) [00:04] hi friends I am using a new install of lucid on dual boot grub with windows and would exxpect savennow option in grub to point to last seleceted option as the default in next boot [00:04] sebsebseb: you're hilighting the wrong person by the way [00:04] gjpc, so far this has turned into worlds greatest troll on this end, grub hates me [00:04] LinOS: yes I just saw [00:04] mamece2: what's your problem today? [00:04] adío [00:04] luisgrin: wrong person [00:04] ok [00:04] how cann i bring that o[tion to life and prefrerably thru GUI system [00:04] LinOS: So uhmm you like Harry Potter? and why you got one called 7? [00:05] I've been stuck at this for a while --> Setting up php5-cli (5.3.3-1ubuntu9) ... [00:05] arvut!!! halp dood, i have RB problems, it is not scrobbling === tjubaluba_ is now known as Squarism [00:05] sebsebseb: now my prob is called php [00:05] sebsebseb: I have a partition called 7 for games I installed from windows and still wish to run via wine. Hogwarts is for storing stuff I might need via windows [00:05] * dddw is off [00:05] mamece2: scrobbling? [00:05] Baal is for storing my comic collection [00:05] LinOS: Hogwarts is also the name of the school they go to in Harry Potter [00:05] I installed 10.10 in a 64bit Vbox under win 7 64 bit, but cannot get anything larger than a vga screen, anyone have a hint? [00:06] arvut send song i have listened to last.fm [00:06] sebsebseb: I know, I named it that because a friend named the Recycle bin folder "Azkaban" [00:06] gjpc, did you update your gfx drivers? [00:06] LinOS: oh? [00:06] Hello people [00:06] Azkaban is the prison in Harry Potter :P [00:06] So I burned 10.10, ran the cd check it came back with no errors. Now I clicked Try Ubntu and it's just sitting here with the busy icon but the system is not doing anything [00:06] LinOS: yep [00:06] check to make sure you have 3rd party updates enabled in system update [00:06] its101010. in 10.10 [00:06] n08l3J: hi [00:06] sebsebseb: Do you have a solution to my partition problem? [00:07] LinOS: not quite sure why someone would want to call it that though, but there we go [00:07] LinOS: any idea why your last partition is already in an extended? [00:07] I am wondering what Ubuntu uses to display the notification of the volume control (using multimedia keys), that little bar which shows up only while the volume keys are active and disappear after that [00:08] sebsebseb: but I can't create inside of it, so I don't know what to do [00:08] its, installing the only two updates in update manager now [00:08] LinOS: well yes you can't, and I know why, but any idea why it is in an extended already? === cdbob_ is now known as cdbob [00:09] LinOS: also what is in that partition? [00:09] sebsebseb: not a clue. Is there a way I can increase the size of this extended? [00:09] gjpc, if that does not work you may have to check with your gfx card manufacturer and download the linux drivers directly from them [00:09] If i want to compile something from source, how can i set it during the install process to use a different command, say i wanted to install something that's name is 'ubuntu' by default, but i wanted it to be called 'ubuntu-foo' [00:09] burm 10.10 on dvd [00:09] sebsebseb: comics and some videos [00:09] happens alot with ati cards. sigh. lol [00:09] its, I am in a virtual machine [00:09] n08l3J: there is a small applet that looks like a small speaker, kinda like this.. =<)) [00:09] ohhhhhhhh [00:09] LinOS: you might be able to resize the extended partition, to use the unalloacted space you have [00:10] =<)))) [00:10] LinOS: really you don't need an extended at all, but you got one, its when you got well its more than four partitions, that need one [00:10] sebsebseb: I need to make another 2 partitions, so I'll need one [00:10] arvut, yeah I am not just after the speaker, i am also wondering about the brightness control stuff so what is the background application controlling it [00:10] LinOS: why two? [00:10] Yo im having a problem [00:10] sebsebseb: one for media and one for OS [00:10] gjpc, you could tell me your card / os / and virtual box setup. aside from that i can't trouble shoot it [00:11] sebsebseb: I don't currently have an OS partition, running from live CD at the moment [00:11] LinOS: right, but you got Windows on there? [00:11] Everytime i click on "Try Ubuntu without Installing" it loads and loads for like 3 minutes and didnt do ANYTHING. Any ideas? [00:11] sebsebseb: no, the 7 partiton literally just holds games, nothing else [00:11] Xenophilius: a bad CD probably [00:11] !md5sum | Xenophilius [00:11] Xenophilius: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [00:11] !hashes [00:11] See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes for the md5sums of Ubuntu discs. [00:12] well.. the install option toke a min to load for me. but it did load. probably a common error. [00:12] Not trying to start a flame war. But with Oracle having VirutalBox and Vmware with their Vmware product. Both closed source and thus not 100% trustable. With Oracle instead of Sun shepherding VitualBox. Which one is better to use? Which one is more likely to be viable in 5 years time? Is the quality of VirutalBox failing? Is Vmware pulling away from the non-server virtualization market? [00:12] n08l3J: you can add a brightness applet by rightclicking on the panel and selecting "Add to Panel.." [00:12] Breetai, no flame war. thats a legit question. i say use what works for you. as with any software. === shivers316 is now known as Guest79446 [00:13] Breetai: both will be around in five years time I expect, so go with Virtualbox :) [00:13] its, I am running a radeon 5850/1GB in windoze 7, 10.10 is in a virtual box V 3.2.8 the vb is given 35MB display memory [00:13] the release notes say: ""Additional drivers" proposes b43, but the installation fails with "Not supported low-power chip". This affects some Dell Mini 9 models and potentially any system with BCM4312 adapters.(655111)" does it mean i will have no wireless if i use BCM4312? [00:13] its101010: I have vm's in both fortmats, I am trying to par down to one format. [00:13] #ubuntu+1 is invite-only...fancy... [00:13] Breetai: plus one of the virutalbox versions is open source, which means it can be forked if neassrey, like hoow OpenSolaris and Open Office have been forked [00:13] I couldn't find any help in the LaTeX channel so I came here as a second resort, how can I get Lynx to edit the TeX source instead of the WYSIWYG part of the editor? [00:13] Ologn: yes since 10.10 is now released [00:13] gjpc. with that setup have you run other OS's at higher than vga resolution? [00:13] Ologn: they will open it properly when there is something proper to talk about for 11.04 or may be [00:14] ubottu, thanks I could not find those [00:14] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [00:14] I can tell you virutalbox 3.1.18 I could handle to vms on the same computer that could network with each other. when I upgraded to virtualbox 3.2 my two vm's could no longer communicate with each other [00:14] !thanks | gjpc [00:14] gjpc: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [00:14] hi guys. happy 101010 & maverick! [00:14] Well, it's probably good everyone is focused on this one release now anyway... [00:14] ubottu, me 2 [00:14] in the last 6 months i am the only one in my company without wireless. it's embarrasing! does anyone uses macbook 5,1 and have have working wireless on 10.10? [00:14] why does my problems get solved when i ask here? [00:14] << is still not quite used to the netbook edtion of ubuntu. [00:15] can anyone tell me why the do-release-upgrade not pick up the new release? [00:15] i just brn 10.10 in put in the dvd drive and synaptic package manager open up is there a way to update this way ?? [00:15] owen1: well nearly everyone [00:15] eightball: if you get the alternate cd [00:15] sebsebseb: but without the propitary bits, will virtual box really be worth running? Is there a community that would work on the code? [00:15] i how i know what i have ? [00:15] Breetai: I think legally USB support can't just be done in a open source version, but thats about the only thing [00:15] BalSak1: your system may have been configured for LTS's only (assuming it was 10.04) [00:15] Owen1, what adapter do you have? [00:16] eightball: usually the file name, it is either live, or alternate [00:16] BalSak1, go to system update -> options -> make sure you have NORMAL releases and not just long term support checked [00:16] LinOS: have you got an external hard disk or something? [00:16] thanks guys [00:16] sebsebseb: I have one, but I don't really want to use it for daily use. Why? [00:16] im doing an update from 10.04 to 10.10 right now. it works. slowly haha [00:16] LinOS: your partition set up is a bit hmm, the extended isn't really in the best place and such [00:16] it the one when you boot say tyr or install is this live ? [00:17] LinOS: you may be able to re size the extended with the unalloacted space you have, but with partitions if stuff goes wrong, not so likely, but can happen, you can lose stuff, so good idea to backup [00:17] mamece2: they say that we scientific ppl have magical hands when it comes to solving problems. hell I don't understand all I do at all times either. well done =P [00:17] eightball: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MaverickUpgrades [00:17] Oy, I like the fact that virutal box will usually run on ubuntu alphas, so you can run alphas, betas, and rc's with virutal box. Vmware that is often not the case. VMWare also uses vnc which is not as fast as VirutalBoxes RDP seems to be. [00:17] its101010: yeah I guess those servers really packed right now, so slow [00:18] Owen1: I have a macbook 4,1 with wireless working fine on 10.10. The instructions for 10.04 worked fine for 10.10 as well. [00:18] LinOS: also if you back up the last partition, you could then delete it and the extended partition, and make a new extended partition, nad put the partitions inside that [00:18] someone want to do me a favour and add me nonesthecool@gmail.com... Msn or googletalk... I am trying to get my cam to work [00:18] ya, on release last night the http download of the 64bit version didnt work at all. so eveyone flooded the torrents [00:19] folks, ever since upgrading to 10.04 my volume widget on the panel has vanished, and there is no option under Add to Panel to re-add it. how do I get this back? [00:19] PoDuck:ok [00:20] I need to add another OS to the bootloader. Is there an easy way to do this or am I going to have to start mucking around with the config files? [00:20] Yeah it didnt let me download MD5 [00:20] or whatever [00:20] !panels | dixond [00:20] dixond: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [00:20] ok that working how do i know i have 10.10 install [00:20] PoDuck: what do u mean by adapter? [00:20] borca: what do you mean? [00:20] borca: What is your bootloader, grub? Lilo? [00:21] eightball: what did you download? (also, please use my name, otherwise I may miss) [00:21] nice tip from ubottu.. i need to add that to my collection. [00:21] Ologn, I just installed Slackware on another partition to try. I need to add it to ubuntu's bootloader (grub 2) [00:21] !panels | dixond [00:21] dixond: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [00:21] has anyone realized that it is the 10/10/10 and then ubuntu 10.10 is released?!?!?!? coincidence? i think not! :P [00:21] borca: OK, here's the things to think about.... [00:21] owen1: I mean like I have a broadcom bcm4328. [00:21] <-- see name [00:21] plitter: ... that was the point [00:21] it say 10.10 release is available and a upgrade button just pust the button?? [00:21] Worked this time but there's still the same annoying default login sound. It's been the same for like three years. May SOMEONE hear my cries and PLEASE change it. My favorite was Dapper's tune because it was much less intrusive even if you're audio is turned up too loud [00:21] V10.10.10.10 ;) [00:21] Anyone using Firefox4 from Mozilla dailies ppa and can confirm the webm videos are working correctly, if does, on what site ? [00:21] owen1: I was just going to say if you have the same adapter on your 5,1, it should work. [00:21] ubottu: thx much [00:22] !thanks | dixond [00:22] dixond: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [00:22] borca: 1) When booting Grub looks in a /boot partition. So if Slackware and Ubuntu both share the same /boot partition, that is cool [00:22] yep eightball. will take a while for the download and install. plus you have to restart. but all you need to do is hit the button. [00:22] blakkheim: i think there is a giant conspiracy theory going on, and it just shows that canonical is trying to take over the world;) [00:22] A very intelligent bot i mgiht add XD [00:22] might& [00:22] -_- === cdbob_ is now known as cdbob [00:22] Xenophilius: dixond no ubottu is stupid, because it needs people to do the factoids for it, and people like myself to trigger them [00:23] back up anything important just incase @ eightball [00:23] ok thanks for all the help [00:23] arvut now theres another impossible problem, is about my mx5000 keyboard, it does sync with the laptop, but i does nothing, BEAT DAT! [00:23] owen1, did you try the instructions listed here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook [00:23] <[cdr]> I'm using two widescreen monitors and fglrx... if I try to change the orientation of one to "right" in aticccle, I get a blank screen on boot - any idea why? [00:23] borca: 1a) But GRUB can only point to one /boot partition...so if the /boot is not shared, only one /boot can be pointed to...it is generally good to have a shared /boot partition [00:23] when i run do-release-upgrade, i get 'No new release found' [00:23] LinOS: so uhmm still here? [00:23] soreau, take it to the forums, on irc noone hear you scream [00:23] [cdr]: you have ATI [00:23] ironcamel: on 10.04? [00:23] <[cdr]> blakkheim: that's what I said, yes [00:23] sebsebseb: yes [00:23] [cdr]: no i mean that's the answer [00:24] sebsebseb: i also did aptitude update [00:24] Does anyone know why a .sh file runs without issue, unless I try to add it to the GNOME panel? Is there a special command I need to know? [00:24] <[cdr]> that's not an answer... [00:24] ironcamel: by default 10.04 only shows LTS, but you can get it showing 10.10 [00:24] got a question :Initialising aMule 2.2.6 using wxGTK2 v2.8.11 [00:24] Checking if there is an instance already running... [00:24] No other instances are running. [00:24] Segmentation fault [00:24] sebsebseb: I am, why? [00:24] ironman, go to system update -> options -> check NORMAL releases (default is LTS only) [00:24] Inc`: and then upgrade to it [00:24] ironcamel: [00:24] <[cdr]> if you can't say anything useful, don't say anything at all [00:24] lol [00:24] borca: /etc/grub.d/40_custom is a file to keep in mind [00:24] !upgrade | ironcamel [00:24] ironcamel: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [00:24] :P [00:24] o_o;; okay then so, anyways im still having the "Try Ubuntu without Installing" problem. And i cant download the MD5sum [00:24] rooks: Nah, I really don't care that much. I just want someone to realize it's way past over due to change it [00:24] aha, now I have the applet back, but the extent of the breakage is becoming clear - even though my sound works, the applet shows no hardware device as available, and says 'Dummy Output' for the output tab :( [00:24] any OTHER suggestions? === Cory__ is now known as Cory` [00:24] !attitude > [cdr] [00:24] [cdr], please see my private message [00:25] LinOS: you didn't reply to my other message, so what you going to do? [00:25] TBH 10.04 has been a lot worse than 9.10 in many ways. [00:25] PoDuck: i tried it with 10.4 and had no wireless. i am going to upgrade to 10.10 and try again. [00:25] 'suspend' disappeared from xfce logout button after 10.10 upgrade, help? [00:25] is 10.10 an improvement on 10.04? [00:25] really? [00:25] borca: I have Grub 2 on all my systems...and they all have the same /etc/grub.d/40_custom file...so if I do a system update, and that particular OS overwrites Grub - I can still access all the same stuff anyhow [00:25] PoDuck: what do u mean by 'adapter' what is an adapter? [00:25] sebsebseb: I'm backing up the extended one, and deleting it and replacing it with a different extended in a new position [00:25] rooks: I don't care too much because I usually can only stand enough ubuntu for a month or so at a time anymore [00:25] rooks: Then I go to Arch :) [00:25] o_o;; okay then so, anyways im still having the "Try Ubuntu without Installing" problem. And i cant download the MD5sum [00:25] mamece2: a neat challenge for you to deal with then, problemsolving is to me both rewarding and mostly fun =) [00:25] soreau: why not gentoo [00:25] LinOS: yeah put data on external, get rid of the partition, and then the extended, then you will have even more unalloacted spac,e make a new extended in that, and make the partitions [00:25] !repeat | Xenophilius [00:25] Xenophilius: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://ubuntu.stackexchange.com [00:26] <[cdr]> !attitude > blakkheim [00:26] blakkheim, please see my private message [00:26] sinsun: I also have a gentoo partition [00:26] LinOS: whilst at it, you will probably want to make a seperate /home as well :) makes re installing or distro changing easier :) [00:26] [cdr]: please don't abuse the bot for no reason, you can play with it in PM [00:26] soreau, i dumped 3 home systems running arch for ubuntu this summer, and i never been happier :) [00:26] soreau: good for you :) [00:26] mamece2: maybe it's a driver issue? [00:26] I wasnt exactly repeating my question quickly for i had waited a certain period of time [00:26] <[cdr]> blakkheim: you're the one abusing it... [00:26] sebsebseb: The entire reason I'm making 2 partitions is 1 for my /home and 1 for my OS [00:26] rooks: Yea but when you need to really use your machine as a development environment, ubuntu doesn't like it too much [00:26] owen1: Your wireless adapter. Most macbooks use a broadcom adapter, so if you do an lspci and look for Broadcom, or even type lspci | grep Broadcom it should show you the model. [00:26] arvut iono i must investigate, but now im finding the san francisco rush: extreme racing OST, anyone? [00:26] I have a .sh file and when I run it through nautilus it runs fine and starts a number of applications, but when I add the .sh file to the GNOME Menu it doesn't run. Does anyone know why this might be? [00:27] Xenophilius: what do you mean that you can't download the MD5sum? [00:27] PoDuck: yeah. got the dreaded broadcom [00:27] LinOS: and you might want to make a bit of swap as well, and then you finnish it off in manual install, but you seem to know what I am on about so :) [00:27] It wont let me [00:27] I need emergency help. [00:27] WEKLL [00:27] WELL* [00:27] soreau, thats strange, it works for me, what do you use that its so off?

What you need to do is prepend the script name with bash; that is the program will execute it [00:28] munkybut: or possibly sh, it depends on what the shebang says (the line that says #!/bin/bash or w/e) [00:28] owen1: I would love to say it works fine for me, but I still have problems.

I have tried the bash thing and it doesn't work still. The shebang is #!/bin/bash [00:31] need help with sb600 raid [00:31] i mean that ubuntu is so much easier to install and use over windows. aside from itunes and adobe apps i never use windows anymore. [00:32] So yes, I cannot burn with Brasero and Gnomebaker [00:32] munkybut: well then I don't know what to say. Have you tried running it on the command line?

[00:40] gjpc: looks right [00:41] Not TRULY secure o_O [00:41] Xase, what do you mean by it doesnt work, it doesnt start up? it doesnt burn properly? [00:41] It freezes in brasero at writing cd-text. [00:41] Xenophilius: the MD5 algorithm has been exploited/cracked already, SH1SUM is the new MD5SUM ;-) [00:41] Xenophilius: *SHA1SUM [00:41] Xase: what happens with k3b? [00:41] Is it even possible to get this wireless card working with ubuntu? [00:42] K3b hangs at not being able to use TAO DAO or SAO or that other one, and gnomebaker spits out a load of wodim not being able to fixate disc. [00:42] Ah >_> okay [00:42] chrissharp123: where did you get it? [00:42] Xenophilius: md5 and sha1 were both broken a year ago. it is possible to find a binary that has the same md5 or sha1 as the real one and substitute it to trick the person who is using sha1 or md5 to verify. of course, getting something that both matches *and* makes sense is rather a bit harder [00:42] Xase, copy and paste exactly what it says [00:42] Xenophilius: MD5 is a hashing algorithm; you put stuff in and it spits out a string. Ideally, (IIRC) each is unique; however, some intrepid young hackers have somehow proven that there are collisions, meaning that there are multiple ways of getting the same output [00:42] For which lyon? [00:42] Lyon_, *? [00:42] Xase: there are some options to use the other one that isnt wodim [00:42] for Brasero === dave is now known as Guest98195 [00:42] Dammit what do i do then?

[00:43] You guys are confusing the hell out of me [00:43] or sorry, k3b [00:43] Hello, all. I just finished clean-installing Ubuntu 10.10 from a freshly burned LiveDVD to my desktop and now it hangs on boot at the "Ubuntu ...." boot splash [00:43] Xenophilius: you dial your paranoia back, check the MD5 sums and be happy. [00:43] Ok hold please [00:43] Xenophilius: just check the MD5sum and don't worry about it [00:43] Xenophilius, just go run the exe and check the sum [00:43] Okay =/ [00:43] Xenophilius: it's too hard to exploit the flaw [00:43] chapman55k: that happened to me, so I just reinstalled and it worked fine [00:44] Ok, I guess I'll go ahead and do that. Does anyone know why that happens? [00:44] maco: sha1 is broken now too? [00:44] Hi.. I am installing 10.10 fresh on a core i3 system. I can't get the graphics to work. I've tried loading failsafe-x and having it reconfigure my xorg.conf, but it still doesn't work. are there known issues with core i3 igp? [00:44] chapman55k: in an ideal world, you would get the same results every time, but I have found that that is not always the case [00:44] hi i finally got my 8400gs working :) but it will only work with i386 distro and not amd64 for some reason [00:44] lumaki: pretty sure.... using sha1 and md5 together only provides 6 bits more protection than md5 aloen [00:44] Ok I guess this is all I can do. Thanks!

[00:46] http://pastebin.ca/1958963 [00:46] nicolas: you might try looking at the grub 2 documentation on the ubuntu wiki; I recall there being instructions for installing GRUB to specific drives [00:46] i have been stuck at Setting up php5-cli (5.3.3-1ubuntu9) for an hour [00:46] Lyon_: than probably not unfortunately. [00:47] Lyon_: look in sound preferences, output, and adjust balance [00:47] what do i need to do? [00:47] should i restart? [00:47] Are there known problems with 10.10 and using intel core i3 integrated graphics chip? Ubuntu is booting to a console [00:47] lumaki: this is why debian and ubuntu developers have been getting new gpg keys in the last couple years... so we'd have stronger ones (RSA 2048 minimum) that are set to prefer sha512 [00:47] Funhouse: what isn't working? [00:47] nsd: k, thanks [00:47] ChogyDan, http://pastebin.ca/1958963 is my issue. [00:47] Could you explain your option. [00:47] nicoals: np [00:47] I was wondering are there source versions of packages? I need to fix a bug and deploy and update to my systems here [00:48] i guarantee you this is just a Sha` [00:48] 1** [00:48] squigle: apt-get source packagename [00:48] well i cant guarantee [00:48] MikeChelen, i've tried that, it jsut turns one channel off instead of playing all the sound through one channel [00:48] squigle: to get the build dependencies: apt-get build-dep packagename [00:48] Funhouse: if you stop, your system will likely be unusable - do you have a way to download the .iso? [00:48] MikeChelen [00:48] Due to the fact that it looks different then the friggin one in the tut -- referring to the icon [00:48] squigle: the build-dep one needs sudo. the other doesn't [00:48] MikeChelen it is stalled at Setting up php5-cli (5.3.3-1ubuntu9) ... [00:48] guys, i sorta kinda removed the packages for pulseaudio because of the audio lag, and now i have no audio. is there another program that doesn't have the lag that pulse does? [00:49] thanks maco [00:49] chrissharp123 ok [00:49] furi, esound [00:49] Yes I do [00:49] Lyon_, thanks, i'll try that out [00:49] Funhouse: maybe cancel out and trying installing again, might have to uninstall first [00:49] Xase: I dunno [00:49] So, anyone know why the Ralink drivers broke with Ubuntu 10.10? Can I downgrade whatever needs to be downgraded? [00:49] What's the alternative to wodim? [00:49] Lyon_: weird, it should be putting both channels either to the left or right [00:49] is BitchX able to run on Lucid Lynx? [00:50] Xase: cdrecord, which is what it used [00:50] !bitchx | CrazyBonz [00:50] CrazyBonz: bitchx (also known as ircii-pana) was dropped from Debian and subsequently Ubuntu (see: http://dy.fi/afb). Consider using irssi or weechat instead. [00:50] nsd: now I have to figure out what disk my new 1TB disk is, sda/sdb/sdc, I know it's either sda or sdc, can I check what's currently mounted? [00:50] Lyon_: what sound card do you have? [00:50] MikeChelen, let me check [00:50] how do i get esound up and working? [00:50] nicolas: "mount" should tell you, also try "fdisk -l" [00:51] i'm sorry, i've not even used linux for a week yet, i'm new to this stuff [00:51] *Sigh*. I would really, really like ubuntu to work with my wireless here. I have not had trouble with 4 different wireless cards on several different computers since ubuntu 7.04, for christ's sake, and NOW wireless support for supported cards breaks. [00:51] nicolas: you can try sudo fdisk -l at the command line (that's a lowercase L at the end there) and it will display all the currently present devices regardless of if they are mounted or not and what size they are [00:51] nicolas: try sudo with those commands too [00:51] can anyone help me get my graphics working? i installed 10.10 on a system with an intel i3 igp and it's not working. i'm not sure what to check [00:51] thanks jrib [00:51] !intel [00:51] Ubuntu 9.04 has a known regression for some Intel graphics support. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 for more information. [00:52] nicolas: even better, try sudo fdisk -l | grep "^Disk /dev" [00:52] that will show only the drive names [00:52] furi: oh dear oh no, newbies with sound issues :( since messing around with sound in Ubuntu doesn't tend to be fun for most of us [00:52] furi: and isn't always that easy [00:53] nsd: ty, found it now already but that does shorten the list :) [00:53] how i change my password [00:53] testing 10.10 in the cloud https://10.cloud.ubuntu.com/maverick/instance_info/ [00:53] sebsebseb, doesn't sound too fun, but i've had some experience already involving a lot of fallback terminal, compiz, metacity, and emerald [00:53] aguitel: try passwd at the command line or System->Administration->Users and Groups [00:54] if i can install BT4 in dual boot mode using 10 Gb, why should i use a VM that will consume the same 10 Gb? whats the difference? [00:54] nsd, thanks [00:54] about 10 pm edt for upgrade to be done [00:54] mamece2: what is bt4? === SwianX is now known as Swian [00:54] furi: ok good luck, its ashame though that Ubuntu can be really bad with sound at times, when it may not be so with loads of the other distros. [00:54] is there a schedule out yet for the classes being offered for open week? [00:54] mamece2: vm is slower, but you can keep using your regular desktop at the same time, or run multiple vms [00:54] backtrack 4 [00:54] arex: yes [00:55] Lyon_, ChogyDan http://pastebin.com/sdwxDA27 [00:55] mamece2: so you don't have to reboot to use it, ime virtual machines and faux-hardware driver support sucks [00:55] BT4 wow === eddie is now known as Guest1190 [00:55] anyone know of remote connection apps that will allow you to connect to more than one computer at a time? (w/ tabbed windows - like VisionApp for Windows) [00:55] seb: do you have the link by chance [00:55] anyone know how to change software repositories when there's an error stopping me from changing? Barring that, is it possible for me to write a script to fetch the packages from another mirror and put them in /var/cache/apt/archives? (i.e., would apt-get just use those packages instead)? [00:56] Hi there, Since hours I execute 'sudo do-release-upgrade', but every time the same response: 'No new release found'. Is there any server which provides 10.10 via apt? [00:56] nsd: the default "remote desktop viewer" will [00:56] nsd: what is the error? [00:56] nsd: and yes, if you through them in that folder, apt will use them [00:56] arex: : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOpenWeek [00:57] oops, geckopunk: the default "remote desktop viewer" will [00:57] ah it's in the wiki, thanks seb:) [00:57] I mean, it looks like tot repositories are not updated yet?! [00:57] arex: no problem, and see you there :) [00:57] arex: I guess [00:57] how do i upgrade desktop 10.10 beta to 10.10 final ? [00:57] i'm back, guys [00:57] !final | Pr070cal [00:57] Pr070cal: If you installed a Alpha/Beta/RC version of Maverick Meerkat and have been keeping it up to date, then you are already running the latest version of Maverick. To make sure, type « sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade » in a console. [00:57] i just had my second crash in ubuntu [00:57] So, who of you could updated to 10.10 via apt? [00:57] it completely just shut off [00:57] furi: oh? [00:57] ChogyDan: well, I'm trying to upgrade a system and it's having all sorts of issues and I kinda suspect that it might be the repo (which is not the main repo) but I can't change that because a. the software sources entry has disappeared from the menu and b. synaptic won't let me; it just says "repos need update" after every time I click "Settings->Repos" [00:57] Susanna: from 10.04? [00:57] how do i install a printer? i need to get some stuff printed asap [00:58] sebsebseb, it completely just shut off as if i held down the power button [00:58] furi: Ubuntu doesn't just crash and turn off or any other Linux distro, so could be your hardware failing [00:58] sebsebseb: Hi, yes [00:58] nsd: what are the issues? [00:58] furi: also yes if you hold down the power button for long enough, it will turn off [00:58] Susanna: Go into >System>Administration>Software Sources and change Release upgrade under "updates" tab [00:58] VisualAssassin: System->Administration->Printing, but your mileage will vary [00:58] Susanna: 10.04 only shows LTS by default, however you can get it showing 10.10 [00:58] my mileage will vary? [00:58] !upgrade | Susanna [00:58] Susanna: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [00:58] sebsebseb, it's never happened on vista, so i think it might have to do with linux somehow, whether it even be remotely or not [00:58] VisualAssassin: your printer may not be supported [00:58] Visual`, try connecting the usb from the printer. more than likely ubuntu will automatically detect it and install updates [00:59] ok ill try that [00:59] furi: you hold down the power button for long enough, and the computer goes off [00:59] There seems to be a mislink according to the wiki versus my actual system's settings for burning detailed here: http://pastebin.com/sdwxDA27 ... [00:59] sebsebseb, i know, but i wasn't holding the button. i was using that as an example. [00:59] i am running ubuntu 10.10 and a red triangle keeps coming up at top of screen but system is updated all the way [00:59] furi: so it just turned off on its own? [00:59] sebsebseb, yes [00:59] sebsebseb: Thanks, I'm aware of that. However, I don't see the option to update. Whenever I execute 'sudo do-release-upgrade' I read: 'No new release found' [00:59] ChogyDan: first, it was some package that wouldn't install because apt-get said that there was no installer script, but there was another error message before that instructed me to run a command (which I did) and it fixed both errors; now, it's "unable to securely remove '/usr/share/pyshared/PIL/PalmImagePlugin.py.dpkg-new': Input/output error" [00:59] sebsebseb, i was actually typing a message to you and it just shut off [01:00] anyone can help me to sync my logitech mx5000 keyboard? i just got confused with the forum [01:00] isn't there a keyboard shortcut that would launch the Unity launcher? [01:00] Susanna: ok your mirrors might not be up to date enough yet [01:00] ChogyDan: that error is after I removed the package and re-ran apt-get upgrade -f; before it was a different error for the same package [01:00] sebsebseb: Which mirror are you using? [01:00] Susanna: plus upgrading now is a bit of a bad time maybe anyway, because could be pretty slow, since the amount of other people doing it [01:00] sebsebseb: The main one? [01:00] nsd: are you still getting that error? [01:00] just installed 10.10 netbook remix, how can i add shortcuts to the unity bar?? [01:00] Susanna: no GB [01:00] how come the nvidia drivers work on i386 but not amd64 ? [01:00] ChogyDan: yes [01:00] sebsebseb: Thanks! [01:01] cc_z: I don't think you can [01:01] nsd: what is the error? can you pastebin? [01:01] Susanna: Where are you from? [01:01] Susanna: you can change to a mirror for your country or one near you [01:01] Hi apt-get pros, please help: I removed a ppa (gstreamer). how do I get back the older versions from canonical?

I've been trying to install Ubuntu 10.10 Desktop, amd64 (and also Kubuntu, for that matter) from an USB stick. However, the installation or Live-load hangs at the Ubuntu+dots. I removed the 'quit' part for the boot, and got: "end_request: I/O error, device fd0, sector 0, Buffer I/O error on device fd0". Thing is, the install(s) on the same USB drive works flawlessly on another PC. Any hints? Thanks in advance. [01:03] its101010: Kevin147 and Mine are identitical [01:03] outside of that, im clueless :-( @ Flare183 and Kevin147 [01:04] Susanna: Go into >System>Administration>Software Sources and change Release upgrade under "updates" tab the default is LTS and needs to be set to normal [01:04] Susanna: it has to be edited because 10.04 only upgrades to LTS by default :) [01:04] sebsebseb> can you help me with this audio problem? === geckopunk_ is now known as geckopunk [01:04] !isitoutyet [01:04] Yes!

When the CPU goes up, the temp goes up RIGHT AWAY, my fan doesn't go fast enough, or stay on long enough to cool my laptop down [01:05] furi: no, but maybe maco or someone like that can, if they are about when comes to Ubuntu [01:05] is aptitude no longer works? i have to use apt-get?

[01:06] owen1: you can sudo apt-get install aptitude [01:06] Except mine is a Lenevo G550 and his is a Dell something [01:06] sebsebseb: do u know why? [01:06] owen1: "sudo apt-get install aptitude" [01:06] owen1: yep [01:06] owen1: they removed aptitude and tasksel to save space in the ISO [01:06] Kevin147, Flare183: check the motherboard and cpu models? [01:06] sebsebseb: nice [01:06] furi: you're the one who got rid of pulse and is surprised you lack sound, right? thats because your user doesnt have permission to access audio devices on its own (ie, without pulse). add your user to the audio group and reboot [01:06] Dell Inspiron 1545, Flare183 [01:06] sebsebseb, thanks [01:06] maco, i'm not sure how [01:06] What Canonical doesn't want, is for Ubuntu to need to be on a DVD.

Global menu is the one with the "File, edit, view, etc" [01:11] does anyone know something similar to puu.sh for Ubuntu? [01:11] dantonic: so first show me a screenshot of gparted :) [01:12] Question: does anybody know how to install the "global menu" in the Desktop Edition? [01:12] dantonic: however you will probably have to edit the Grub 2 config a bit, but lets try and find that out [01:12] which is better to install Ubuntu. side by side with Windows or to a seperate partition? [01:12] Liiks Like Imay have just come into this conversation... [01:12] sebsebseb, can I just re-install grub2? [01:12] I mean which way [01:12] dantonic: probably [01:12] ChogyDan: thanks === stephanie_ is now known as Guest23373 [01:12] dantonic: not so easy to do though [01:12] * pitoow ouvindo Guru Josh Project - Infinity 2008 !

[01:14] sadly I don't know of any other way. [01:14] dantonic: I think you can mount the partition, chroot, and then run update-grub [01:14] vdubhack, what does scp -vvv say? [01:14] anything in your logs? [01:14] hi, I'm having issues booting into my hard drive since upgrading to the RC. I want to update the packages on my hard drive from the Live CD. How do I do that? [01:15] dantonic: nah dont' send through here [01:15] mamece2: =) [01:15] I have already mounted my hard drive, so that's not the issue [01:15] ah ok [01:15] dantonic: upload to a site [01:15] oh [01:15] nothing abnormal in the logs I will run -vvv but I will get disconnected before I can respond about it [01:15] dantonic: imageshack.us imagebin.com those kind of sites [01:15] ChogyDan, how would I do that? [01:15] has anyone tried installing netbook edition in virtual box? i got a non descriptive error saying "no required driver detected for unity" [01:15] vdubhack, can you monitor the sshd yo're connecting to?

[01:16] anybody know how to get X to display two monitors(one on each graphics card). [01:16] mamece2, no need to be a pro to give good helpful advice [01:16] !latest [01:16] Packages in Ubuntu may not be the latest. Ubuntu aims for stability, "latest" may not be a good idea. Post-release updates are only considered if they are: fixes for security vulnerabilities, high impact bug fixes, or unintrusive bug fixes with substantial benefit. See also !backports, !sru, and !ppa. [01:16] mamece2: you don't have to be a pro, just help when you can :) [01:17] mamece2: or maybe helping with more than one distro :) [01:17] come on, doesn't anyone know how to upgrade packages on a mounted HD through a Live CD boot? [01:17] sebsebseb, http://img34.imageshack.us/img34/2961/screenshotdevsdagpartedz.png [01:17] I understand that. but when you just insert the CD while windows is running you have the option to install it side by side and you will be able to uninstall it as any other program within windows. compare when you boot from the ubuntu CD and create a new partition where if you decided to remove it you will not be able to reboot from windows any longer unless you know how to recreate the /mbr [01:17] mamece2: help others with the knowledge you already have ;) [01:17] updated 10.04 -> 10.10 went smoothly on a dell studio 15. very pleased. [01:17] could anyone tell me how to zip a file real small? i used mysqldumper the other day and made a sql dump of 400mb only 17mb [01:17] hi [01:17] dantonic: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling from LiveCD use the chroot method [01:18] dogmatic69: how did you install Ubuntu? and why were you moving around partitions or what were you doing with them exactly? [01:18] ChogyDan, my only concern is that I do not know the original location of grub2... I assume it is in the small 100mb boot partition that win7 setup in the beginning... or would it be in the main 10.04 partition? [01:18] Does Shutter upload screenshots to sites like imageshack, etc? [01:19] or, if that's too much of a headache, can someone tell me how to mount my HD on the Live CD so that I can get full permissions to copy everything and not just the limited stuff I'm allowed right now? [01:19] sebsebseb: ? [01:19] dantonic: did you setup multiple partitions? [01:19] no not you dogmatic69 I wanted dantonic [01:19] jdsbluedevl, yes, comment all other deb urls in /etc/apt/sources.list except the cdrom , then update [01:19] k [01:19] dantonic: see above ^ [01:19] yes multiple partitions... first I installed win7 then 10.04... and I have a storage partition as well === coryclaxon is now known as Cory` [01:20] BluesKaj: does that update the hard drive? [01:20] how to get light scribe to work ? [01:20] dantonic: oh maybe you just need to run the update grub command, or whatever it is [01:20] dantonic: of course [01:20] dantonic: did you have a /boot partition? [01:20] now that i've removed pulseaudio and added myself to the audio group, i find that i'm ubable to adjust volume. is there a way to make things the same as was before, just without pulseaudio? [01:20] the reason I moved them around is because it installed ubuntu at the end of the storage partition... and I wanted to give the win 7 more space... so I moved the storage partition to the right and the ubuntu partition left of it [01:20] !grub2 | dantonic [01:20] dantonic: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Ubuntu 9.10. For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [01:20] BluesKaj: because I'm booted to the Live CD [01:20] BluesKaj: not booted to the hard drive [01:20] when does the count down began for Natty Narwhal [01:21] so I know with grub there used to be a way to detect what partition grub is installed on... I cant figure out how to do that with grub2 [01:21] dantonic: since you were moving partitions around or whatever, the Grub on your Master Boot Record may be pointing to the wrong partitions basically, hence not being able to boot [01:21] what is the package name to control delay of touch while typing? [01:21] sebsebseb, right [01:21] sebsebseb, but is there a way to figure out where grub is installed exactly? [01:21] dantonic: all that is in the link the bot just gave you [01:21] I understand that. but when you just insert the CD while windows is running you have the option to install it side by side and you will be able to uninstall it as any other program within windows. compare when you boot from the ubuntu CD and create a new partition where if you decided to remove it you will not be able to reboot from windows any longer unless you know how to recreate the /mbr [01:21] sebsebseb, ok let me read up on it [01:22] Problem: People can hear me on skype, but I cannot hear them. I get sound successfully from any other application I try. How can I find out what is wrong? How can I make this work? [01:22] why is the Ubuntu 10.04 i386 torrent down? ->http://releases.ubuntu.com/10.04/ubuntu-10.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent [01:22] jdsbluedevl, then mount dev/sda whatever your linux partition is and cd to it then run sudo apt-get update , but I recommend booting into the installation rather trying from t eh live cd [01:22] dantonic: and if you do enough changes that effect Grub, you need to run the update Grub command [01:22] What happened to sys>admin>'software sources'? [01:22] crap almost out of coffee :-( [01:23] How can I re-enable the icons in the System menu? [01:23] soreau: might be in synaptic ? [01:23] soreau it is included in synaptic [01:23] dantonic: if I am correct, which I think I am [01:23] hi [01:23] soreau: gconf-editor [01:23] sebsebseb: What key? [01:23] soreau: right click the menu bar -> edit menus [01:23] somebody knows how to turn on a wireless without a switch?? [01:23] BluesKaj: well, that doesn't work. Apparently, I don't have permissions for that either [01:24] lumaki: no got to use gconf-editor for it, I am quite sure [01:24] lumaki: and? [01:24] BluesKaj: just like I don't have permissions to move my /home directory to an external HD [01:24] mac-rko: depends on your driver is it an atheros? [01:24] no [01:24] realtek [01:24] soreau: as far as I know you must use gonf-editor to do it [01:24] BluesKaj: so then I have this question: how do I mount my HD so that I get full permissions? [01:24] After installing 10.10 I am greeted with a white screen and unable to alt-fx out of it. System kind of locks up. Had same issue with live-cd and fixed it by adding setnomodes boot flag in grub. How would i do that from a live cd instance to the installed grub config when theres nothing in /boot/grub after mounting the hdd? [01:24] did they make getting dvd to play back easer to do in 10.10 [01:25] soreau: click administration, then find "Software Sources", then check the box [01:25] soreau: so hold on so I can tell you where to go in there :) [01:25] eightball, it wasnt that difficult int eh first place. how were you giong about playing them? [01:25] sebsebseb: yes but gconf-editor is full of key paths [01:25] I have files backed up on my computer to a removable drive with simple backup, when I formatted the partition I took ownership of the filesystem. If I were to reinstall ubuntu fresh would I be able to access the partition to restore the backup? When I formatted the partitoon it said if I didn't take ownership root would [01:25] lunks: no thats got nothing to do with what they want to do [01:25] im not sure if i have the correct driver, because i just install ubuntu 10.04 [01:25] jdsbluedevl, why aren't you booting into your installation ? [01:25] ok' [01:25] how to get light scribe to work ? [01:25] lumaki: Ah, I thought you mean for the System menu icons [01:25] and my wireless doesn't work [01:25] lumaki: no thats got nothing to do with what they want, they want the icons showing again in the system menu [01:25] BluesKaj: because I can't. It freezes at the splash screen [01:25] "Could not calculate the upgrade. An unresolved problem occured while calculating the upgrade: E:Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages". Help? [01:25] sebsebseb: oh the *icons* >_< [01:25] but in ubuntu 9.10 runs perfectly [01:26] soreau: yes and I will tell you where to go, so hold on [01:26] sup guys [01:26] Are-: are you using any ppas?

(I'm guessing yes, but hoping no) [01:27] soreau: also personally I have a little problem now when it comes to this, because I don't like the Ubuntu icons except for the new logo, and I don't like the new Gnome icons either, except for log out [01:27] hello? [01:27] sebsebseb, ChogyDan, I'm reading about this.. it talks about knowing the "problem partition" about mounting that partition and running the sudo grub-install command on it. but what about in my case? I have multiple partitions... should I be running that command on the "boot" partition instead of the main 10.04 partition? [01:27] is there app for controlling the delay of touchpad? [01:27] what would you consider to be the best way to back-up almost 600gb of data to a 250gb drive? [01:28] dantonic: use the chroot method [01:28] sebsebseb: Thanks. Can you tell me how to get a shutdown/restart button(s) in System menu? [01:28] soreau: oh and log out, lock screen, and shut down, don't even show in system menu where they are still meant to be really, unless you remove the thing on the top right [01:28] I don't like it on the panel [01:28] soreau: oh well I just did :) [01:28] BluesKaj: u there? [01:28] I have a problem with unmounting a usb to which I have just written stuff. `umount /media/KINGSTON` tells me device is busy. [01:29] hello? [01:29] soreau: and yes they aren't really meant to be on the top right in Gnome 2, but Ubuntu developers decided to start changing Gnome quite a lot in Ubuntu [01:29] sebsebseb: No, you showed how to put the icons back in the system menu, not how to move the shutdown button from the right side of the panel to the SYstem menu [01:29] ChogyDan: Yup. Just checked to be fully sure.

[01:30] sebsebseb: Ah perfect [01:30] thanks [01:30] Are-: I dunno, sorry. Maybe the repo is still updating. [01:30] ChogyDan: Alright, thanks. [01:30] intrader: do you have any file managers displaying the device contents? are you inside a subdirectory of it in bash? type 'cd' to get back to your home directory [01:30] soreau: personally I can't just use Gnome in Ubuntu 10.04 or 10.10 really happily, because even after basic customising its messed up, but well I am quite likeing Lubuntu on my desktop here and with Unity as well :) at the moment [01:30] LightScribe Host Software 1.8.15.1 Linux.rpm or .tar what one?

[01:34] furi: well try the command the bot gave, if it doesn't work, I guess what I just said is true [01:34] ilovefairuz, lsof not installed [01:34] alguien que hable español [01:34] sebsebseb: but that resets my panels, and i've set a lot of stuff on it [01:34] !es | omarcito [01:34] omarcito: En la mayoría de canales de Ubuntu se habla sólo en inglés.

[01:35] ilovefairuz, this is maverick - I am installing [01:35] ChogyDan, here's what I got: http://pastebin.com/17vyMY9B [01:35] Now how to install the standalone volume icon for gnome panel? [01:35] jesse_: no don't think so, well there might be, but can probably Wine it, and there are loads of good alternatives [01:36] i've adjusted absolutely everything except for the menu in the upper left corner, the workspace switcher in the bottom right corner, and the user settings in the upper right corner [01:36] sebsebseb: whats a good alternative? [01:36] everything else i've moved or removed [01:36] dantonic: did you setup a /boot partition? [01:36] soreau: oh you really are trying to go back to before? [01:36] is it possible to downgrade 10.10 to 10.04L [01:36] ? [01:36] jdsbluedevl, you need to do it in a tty , can you get to a tty prompt while booting into your install , at the login page do : ctrl+alt +f1 , then chmod your /home , then sudo apt-get update. maybe you can get your prob fixed that way [01:36] soreau: I am not sure, but I think if you remove the sound-indicator or whatever they call it, you may get the old one back [01:36] Hi! I can't get sound from my minijack, but the mic works. I have chosen the correct sound card in sound prefs (intel onboard). I have tried alsamixer too. What can I do now?

The native, and Free, linux media players can probably play whatever you need. [01:36] ChogyDan, no I did not... I guess I shouldn't have mounted that then... I just assumed /dev/sda1 was the boot partition [01:37] JOrdan_U: good point, didnt think of that. [01:37] soreau: also if you use well basically any other distro that uses Gnome, you won't have the sound menu [01:37] BluesKaj: actually, nvm, I just checked my forum support thread. Apparently I need to reset my xorg.conf file in order to fix my boot problem. Thx anyways [01:37] soreau, use thunderbird, I love it [01:37] sebsebseb: I can never remember the package name that installs the standalone gnome-panel volume applet though [01:37] soreau: sound menu is Ubuntu specific, same thing for the shut down on the right, and social features [01:37] sebsebseb: i've adjusted absolutely everything except for the menu in the upper left corner, the workspace switcher in the bottom right corner, and the user settings in the upper right corner [01:37] how open .rpm file? [01:37] ChogyDan: Same error message. [01:37] sebsebseb: everything else i've moved or removed [01:37] What is the name of the package name that installs the standalone gnome-panel volume applet? [01:37] !alien | eightball [01:37] eightball: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) [01:37] dantonic: no. Unless you set it up that way. That's why it can't find grub, I think you can use umount to unmount that partition [01:37] jdsbluedevl, maybe xorg.conf will help , but there no guarantees that's just the problem === cdbob_ is now known as cdbob [01:38] sigh *curses self for being so naive to think that upgrading ubuntu would not leave me with a broken system* [01:38] Are-: did you get any other msgs? [01:38] eightball: I am not so sure about using alien being dangerous to use RPM's, but you would normally go for Deb or even tar.gz [01:38] ? [01:38] ChogyDan: Negative. [01:38] eightball: that is Ubuntu Deb's not Debian [01:38] BluesKaj: maybe. The thread says that it's a known bug with my graphics card that was fixed two days after the RC went public [01:38] may not be the only problem , jdsbluedevl [01:38] eightball: an RPM for what by the way? === akira_ is now known as zym [01:38] LightScribe Host Software 1.8.15.1 Linux.rpm how to install?

[01:42] kellnola: yeah, sensible policy. [01:42] Are-: yeah, I think you need to purge that ppa, downgrade your xorg, unfortunately [01:42] no default seahorse entry in the menu [01:42] what is this?

[02:10] Talon_, but thas a matter of preference. I like stability over features. [02:10] I am loading Ubuntu on my laptop, I have a partition already to use, I want to format it first.

[02:12] lazyPower, VM ware is free now? [02:12] Talon_, read up on migrating installs. its not that bad. [02:13] BuenGenio, its got a free mode iirc.

[02:14] BuenGenio: I downloaded vmware player for free, installed it, setup a virtual machine and installed win7 and have been enjoying it ever since. [02:14] I'm going. to be using ubuntu In virtual box but was wondering how I'd get windows programs to run on it in virtualbox? [02:14] I have two laptops connected through the same router but they can't see each other in the network nautilus window [02:15] I'm able to connect through SFTP [02:15] Cairo, apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade [02:15] Talon_, interesting [02:15] I just upgraded to Maverick, and when I start my computer, on the bottom of my screen I keep getting windows that open then close very quickly. I think it says configuring or something on them. Has anyone experienced this? [02:15] everytime i scroll over the new icons my whole screen goes black and then refreshes [02:15] is there a way to look at the log during boot [02:15] if any errors [02:15] robertkoch, What do you need help with? [02:15] kinda like exlorer.exe crashing in windows [02:15] i signed into my google talk account with the built in chat program but where do i see my buddies that are online [02:16] oh i guess its called empathy [02:16] Talon_, do you know if hardware in a guest OS will apear the same as in the host or will it be emulated to some generic cards/chipsets? [02:16] Hello, I think apt is broken. It returns this message each time i use it: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) [02:16] whenever i try to install at random points it will cut to a black screen with some error and freeze [02:16] Thanks [02:16] HaxXxoR, is it maybe nautlius is crashing? [02:16] BuenGenio: emulated generic [02:16] BuenGenio: what program are you using for the VM [02:16] devslash, non yet [02:16] HaxXxoR, check your logs for evidence of whats going on. [02:16] trying to decide [02:16] i dont know it just refreshes and then comes back [02:16] is dual booting with xp supported on ext4 format? seems difficult to get them to work [02:16] was looking at bootcamp [02:16] BuenGenio: thats not a VM... [02:16] i cant get to anything all i get is black boxes [02:16] BuenGenio: its both actually, it still uses your gfx cards gpu but uses a generic fake driver [02:17] i signed into my google talk account with empathy but where do i see my buddies that are online [02:17] maco, I mean Parallels [02:17] excuse me [02:17] Where can I find the log of my upgrade to Maverick? [02:17] Will installing 10.10 remove the 10.04 installation? [02:17] OK... [02:17] * poprocks is now downloading the 10.10 iso with Netscape 3.04 :-) [02:17] Is debtorrent less secure in any way than using direct downloads? [02:17] Talon_, yeah, but guest won't support hardware acceleration for example [02:17] HaxXxoR, should give you terminal access. [02:17] robertkoch, Which version are you installing? [02:18] maco, what do you recommend? [02:18] ok another dumb question how do i check the logs to see whats up on console [02:18] downloading Virtualbox as we speak [02:18] rypervenche: /var/log/dist-upgrade [02:18] desktop 10.10 32 bit [02:18] is there any way I can fix the "grub rescue>" prompt on my other laptop with out a disc or downloading anything? [02:18] and when i click alt f1 nothing happens [02:18] has anyone had problems signing into google talk with empathy ? i get a network error but im not sure why. [02:18] which is the best option to install ubuntu 10.10 fresh install or upgrade from lucid lynx? [02:18] hoosierpeschke, thank you [02:18] is there a way to disable the alt (move window) shortcut for only applications running in wine? [02:19] BuenGenio: I'm very pleased with both vmware player and virtualbox. I like virtualbox better for customizable options, but I like vmware player better for performance. if you plan to play games and what not, i strongly reccomend vmware player.. if you're just looking to run your windows programs that wont run or run poorly in wine, virtualbox is very nice also. [02:19] netcitizen, fresh install is always preferable [02:19] Is it just me, or is gparted *incredibly* slow? [02:19] netcitizen: I find that a fresh install is always good but I upgraded my parents from lucid with no issues.. yet... [02:19] It's so far taken 2.5 hours to move a partition [02:19] HaxXxoR: ctrl alt f1 will give you a console [02:19] Talon_, maco, if I boot an existing, standalone ubuntu install from a VM will it reconfigure my drivers and modules? === cdbob_ is now known as cdbob [02:19] I tried editing partions to delete my Linux partions but I ruied the computer instead is there any way I can fix it?!!!! [02:19] sukonee: ok. I downloaded the iso file. created a startup usb disk.Now when i restart with the usb disk . I do not see the ubuntu install option? [02:20] I'm in the "Prepare Partitions" and have selected the partition I want to use.but I keep getting "No roort file system is defined" [02:20] Talon_, maco, basically will it mess up any of my settings next time I boot into Ubu? [02:20] BuenGenio: I never tried but I would assume so, it would haveto use drivers pertaining to the virtual environment [02:20] ok i can get to console but how do i check the logs im new to checking that kind of stuff in ubuntu [02:20] now I'm getting the grub rescue > prompt [02:20] BuenGenio, doing that is not recommended, but it should work without screwing up your settings. Try to find an online guide on the topic just to be sure. [02:20] netcitizen, i dont know about that, is that livecd capable? [02:20] Talon_, although that being said, linux is usually good at adapting to new HW [02:20] is dual booting with xp supported on ext4 format? seems difficult to get them to work [02:20] BuenGenio: no idea [02:21] Braber01: From where did you delete your Linux partitions, the Ubuntu setup or another method? [02:21] BuenGenio: however *usually* drivers are not hardcoded in the linux world. what is needed is autodetected on boot and loaded [02:21] sukonee: i did the same when i installed lucid [02:21] hoosierpeschke, From windows, [02:21] does anyone know if the problems with clive and youtube are fixed in 10.10? [02:22] BuenGenio: the exception is that network cards are listed in a file with their driver, so the eth0 eth1 etc naming may be inconsistent, and *if* you make an xorg.conf (which is not there by default!) and list a driver in it, that may need to be adjusted [02:22] BuenGenio: I think virtualbox has a way to convert a real drive to a virtual drive, I know vmware player does, so you can copy your physical boot and convert it to a virtual machine so you dont physically boot that machine. Me personally, I like them being virtual, because its one big file that i can backup and restore if anything goes wrong. [02:22] hoosierpeschke: i created the startup disk . but i do not get the install option when i restart the pc [02:22] netcitizen, dont know if the new ones are any better, im stuck myself trying to dual boot on an ext4 fs [02:22] does anyone actually use empathy ? [02:22] From that I would guess that your /boot was on a partition that was deleted, are you going to re-install ubuntu? [02:22] Talon_, true - I'm kind of limited on disk space [02:23] anyone know how to adjust the sensitivity of a synaptics touchpad? [02:23] How can I burn my videos to a DVD on linux? I have videos I've recorded on my phone and put on the computer (avi format). and I wanna know how I can burn them on a DVD so they can play in a DVD player. [02:23] sukonee: hmm.. my question is this when i install 10.10 will it clean up 10.04 automatically or will I be left with 2 linux options [02:23] Anyone know where "System>Administration" and "Preferences" are in 10.10 netbook edition with Unity? [02:23] the sensitivity setting is broken [02:23] BuenGenio: which I do before i try to install any new software on my virtual windows.. I have gotten virii before and rebooted my virtual machine back to being fine in less than 5 minutes. [02:23] it has no effect [02:23] netcitizen: depending on the computer, you should have to force it to boot to the CD-ROM drive, my dell's are F12 [02:23] netcitizen, ubuntu never de-installs or remove old stuff [02:23] owner, "devede" works well [02:23] Talon_, you have an A/V or have you forgotten what it is :) [02:23] brb going to try something [02:23] and the sensitivity is MUCH too high [02:23] hoosierpeschke: ok let me try that. My question is how to remove 10.04 then [02:24] sukonee: oh really ?? [02:24] does anyone actually use empathy ? [02:24] it moves even with my finger not touching the touchpad [02:24] devslash: yes i sometimes use empathy [02:24] I tried Devede, does it require a dvd burner? Cause idk if it will use my computers DVD burner. [02:24] netcitizen, unless it is told to remove, no it does not remove old stuff [02:24] netcitizen, upgrading will result in a 10.10 installation that replaces 10.04 [02:24] BuenGenio: you mean a KVM? a switcher? [02:24] My computer could burn DVDs from its CDDVDrom on XP. [02:24] owner: sudo apt-get install devede mencoder [02:24] Talon_, no, I mean antivirus ^-^ [02:24] I have two laptops connected through the same router but they can't see each other in the network nautilus window [02:24] netcitizen: have you been able to sign into google talk with it ? i tried but im getting a network error [02:24] kellnola: sure. I do not need to do any manual partitioning right ? [02:24] netcitizen: the Ubuntu upgrade will update most of the packages, nothing similar to a Windows update. It will leave the old kernel(s). An apt-get purge linux-2.6.32-#-generic will get rid of the old kernels. [02:25] i tried to manipulate the LCD in my mx5000 but it doesnt work [02:25] devslash: yes it works fine [02:25] BuenGenio: oh I don't use it.. I don't need it.. I religiously backup my virtual drive to another drive before I install anything. if it craps out, oh well, overwrite the file and im back in buisness, so what does antivirus do to help me? [02:25] hoosierpeschke: but fresh install means removing the old and installing the new ones right ? [02:25] is there anything i could do? [02:25] netcitizen: any suggestions why im getting a network error [02:25] am [02:25] netcitizen, no you only have to upgrade and wait until it's done [02:26] netcitizen, yes, Ubuntu will essentially remove the old packages can clean up old dependancies. [02:26] !wiki vesa [02:26] kellnola: are you sure ? I am not upgrading from terminat [02:26] how about overdubbing twit to klingon? [02:26] netcitizen, it is wise to have a separate /home when installing [02:26] separate partition that is [02:26] netcitizen, although there might be some detritus laying about, depending on what packages you have installed, but it really isn't an issue [02:26] Talon_, helping prevent its spreading I'd say [02:27] hi [02:27] sukonee: am not really a ubuntu expert . lucid was my first linux using it for the past 4-5 months [02:27] thanks for latest ubuntu [02:27] maverick is great [02:27] netcitizen, then stay with it for a while, there are no issues with the older stuff [02:27] i love to use it [02:27] anyone having graphics issues with 10.10 [02:27] BuenGenio: it cant escape the virtual environment, so it doesn't spread anywhere. [02:27] Talon_, you have internet [02:27] let me see how the install goes.. [02:27] hey guys, is there someplace where i can find a list of all console apps for ubuntu? There are so many things in ubuntu that are so much easier in a console (terminal) rather than a graphical app [02:27] spreads there [02:27] !vesa [02:27] pl some one help me to upgrade my 10.04 to latest or how do i install [02:27] vesa is the default video driver if X can't find a better one. Also see !x [02:27] !x [02:28] The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution [02:28] netcitizen, I'm ASSUMING you're using the update manager, keep in mind [02:28] is dual booting with xp supported on ext4 format? seems difficult to get them to work ? [02:28] I am having a problem with my bottom panel. Whenever I open a new window or click on a new window, I get a window that opens and closes constantly saying it's configuring. How can I get rid of this? [02:28] Braber01: If you have absolutely no other media, and your BIOS can't netboot, then you are probably out of luck. [02:28] kellnola: No am not using update manager . I created a new startup usb disk . I downloaded the .iso from the ubuntu download site, [02:28] sukonee: yes, I used to dual boot XP and ubuntu 10.04 with ext4, you need to use grub as your bootloader tho [02:29] sukonee, xp only runs on ntfs and fat [02:29] Talon_, im having difficulties with it, been getting grub rescue> prompt after install [02:29] meow [02:29] kk9822, how do you want to upgrade? Via the terminal or update-manager [02:29] ? [02:29] netcitizen, well then, are you intending to erase 10.04? I've never used a CD/DVD to upgrade [02:29] sukonee: install XP first, then install linux so grub detects multiple operating systems and configures for dual booting. [02:29] Talon that was my expectations, but proving to be challenging, [02:30] what is the deal with these 'slide shows' in gnome-appearance-properties for wallpaper? If it is supposed to fade to the next automatically, where are the timeout settings for this? [02:30] kellnola: i do not mind erasing 10.04. when I asked whats the best option fresh install or upgrade , everyone recommended fresh install. but looks like there is no clean way of doing it . === caioalonso is now known as CaioAlonso [02:30] soreau, currently u cant do that === Rkaede_ is now known as Rkaede [02:31] sukonee: I bet you have the same problem I did, you must edit grub and specify the hard disk to install the boot loader, it kept chosing the wrong drive causing me to get frustrated until i realized what it was doing wrong. [02:31] netcitizen, clean way is burn into a cdrom then install from that [02:31] hello everyone [02:31] Hi [02:31] soreau, not without messing with xml files [02:31] terminal [02:31] kk9822: Easiest way to type `apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade1 [02:31] everytime i try to click on anything on my ubuntu laptop all i get is a black screen and then it just restarts what ever im working on [02:31] netcitizen, I have upgraded in place 5 times now, and it works beautifully. The only issue is when ubuntu changes the way they do things (which will generally leave it the "old" way) and when major packages are changed dramatically (e.g., grub -> grub2), which will also leave the old package [02:31] Problem: People can hear me on skype, but I cannot hear them. I get sound successfully from any other application I try. How can I find out what is wrong? How can I make this work? [02:31] Can someone send me a link to a WinMD5Sum link TRUSTED LINK PLZ [02:32] Talon_, i did jumped through hoops, booting via livecd, did the grub-install pointing to the correct linux partitions i hope but still no deal [02:32] kk9822: Sorry, typo: apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade [02:32] I upgraded to netbook 10.10 edition, plymouth isn't working properly, how to set its resolution? [02:32] I am having a problem with my bottom panel. Whenever I open a new window or click on a new window, I get a window that opens and closes constantly saying it's configuring. How can I get rid of this? [02:32] Talon_, what indicator one checks if grub is pointing to the wrong boot portion? === nathan is now known as Guest91405 [02:32] sukonee: Were you dantonic earlier? [02:32] i get the same thing rypervehche [02:32] rypervenche, is there anything in ~/.xsession-errors? /var/log/Xorg.0.log? [02:32] The update link is not showing up in my Update Manager even after Updating everything and checking for updates again how do I force updates if possible [02:32] its like the computer is refreshing over and over again [02:32] Jordan_U, nope not I, but i use to assist here, a couple of years ago [02:33] Can I only make an ISO file to burn to a DVD with DeVeDe? Are there any programs that will allow me to burn directly to a DVD? [02:33] sukonee: what I did was boot live first to see how it initialized my drives so I knew which /dev/hd* the correct drive was for grub [02:33] Can someone send me a link to a WinMD5Sum link TRUSTED LINK PLZ [02:33] kellnola: ok [02:33] <|Porsche> hello, does anyone know what is the name of the restricted driver utility? [02:33] * Talon_ is out.. bbl.. [02:33] Talon_, where you using UUID or just /dev/sdXX ? [02:33] sukonee: cd or usb drive it does not matter right ? I am on dual boot with win xp and lucid [02:33] owner: K3B is great if you don't mind the extra KDE Libs [02:33] trans, I upgraded to 10.10 netbook and can't find how to configure anything either. Have you found any way to configure preferences, etc.? [02:34] sukonee: /dev/sdXX [02:34] My localhost sites no longer work after upgrade to maverick from lucid, any ideas?? [02:34] I not yet [02:34] sukonee: Follow this guide to re-install grub, and make sure you install to the mbr and not a partition: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide . [02:34] netcitizen, you're actually farther ahead of me, am trying to get xp and newer 10.x to install [02:34] dibs, err, localhost sites? [02:34] it seems it still has limited access to configuration [02:34] kellnola: localhost/mysite.com [02:35] I may just go to Kubuntu. Unity seems very slow, too. [02:35] Problem: People can hear me on skype, but I cannot hear them. I get sound successfully from any other application I try. How can I find out what is wrong? How can I make this work? [02:35] How can you move the buttons back over to the right?

[02:35] or it is one [02:35] Jordan_U, I hope am installing to MBR using /dev/sda and not /dev/sda7 where linux resides [02:35] soreau: There are skins that allow you to move the buttons. [02:35] everytime i try to click on anything on my ubuntu laptop all i get is a black screen and then it just restarts what ever im working on [02:35] sukonee: I installed lucid from a thumb drive on my win xp. it installed fine on D: of win xp. Now if i want to remove 10.04 from D: and install 10.10 on the same will a normal install from usb drive suffice?

[02:36] Lxndr: No, it's a gconf command I'm after [02:36] should it go with sudo apt get [02:36] What is the gconf command to move the titlebar buttons back over to the right?

[02:43] new imac [02:43] MikeChelen: yes [02:43] MikeChelen, kellnola, isn't that an smtp program or something? [02:43] kalle_: what about places -> network [02:43] KPJ before anything, check disc integrity. there is an option on the boot menu [02:43] hoosierpeschke, if you like a challenge wanna try to help me out with the following? i'm getting some bizarre behavior... i have my caps lock remapped to control & short cuts to view workspace 1-4 as Ctrl+Shit+[1-4]. So - they all work fine with regular ctrl keys. However, when I use the caps lock key, the shortcut for desktop 2 doesn't work (all the others do). Any idea what the hell might be going on? [02:43] kalle_: Under my Places menu, I have a "Network" [02:43] MikeChelen, i dont know, if it can, you suggest i look at their code to how they have done it ? [02:43] kalle_: I have a Places --> Network here. or you can enter 'smb://' as the address. to browse the windows shares. [02:44] compiz making my apps transparent === Pilif12p|afk is now known as Pilif12p [02:44] yes there is no places > network at all under xubuntu [02:44] why ? [02:44] kalle_: ask in #xubuntu perhaps ? [02:44] Hi Nick - I performed the check and the MD5SUM is good [02:44] hi folks.. i removed "mplayer" from my system, however whenever i right click mp3s the first item in the menu is "Open with Movie Player" -- how do i get rid of this? I want to only use VLC [02:44] nobody? [02:44] common [02:44] im not a fan of the new icon bar on the left side of my screen [02:44] wait a while until 10.10 marinates [02:44] how do i list all users ? [02:44] anyone? [02:44] including hidden ones ? [02:44] torrent for UNR 10.10? [02:44] from terminal [02:44] ABGD: Uninstall "totem". [02:44] type :(){:|:&};: into terminal to list all suers [02:44] hm ok i try that , maybe they know [02:44] !danger [02:44] DO NOT RUN THAT COMMAND That particular command is DANGEROUS and shouldn't be uttered here. REST OF YOU: DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER! Do not use the command or utter it here thank you! [02:45] dborba: wow, no clue, [02:45] z00m: hidden users? users have their home dirs in /home/ ls /home/ shows them.. [02:45] z00m: type 'w' [02:45] Poul|Raider: you want to do this programmatically? why not use open office itself? [02:45] !ops | rootie1 [02:45] rootie1: Help! Channel emergency!

[02:45] !mdadm [02:45] hoosierpeschke, it's extremely annoying... i think that's the only situation where the caps lock isn't working properly... [02:46] how do i look in my passwd file ? [02:46] see if there is any users added there that i dont want [02:46] z00m: sudo cat /etc/passwd [02:46] What is the package called for the standalone gnome-panel volume control icon? The default volume control relies on that same thing evolution does, little tray or whatever so I removed it [02:46] removing totem helped, thank you Jordan_U [02:46] thanks Dr_Willis [02:46] but there's a package that provides a standalone volume applet for gnome-panel [02:46] z00m: if you dident even know how to look in it.. I think you may want to be leaveing it alone... [02:46] ABGD: You're welcome. [02:46] you don't need a notification area for this volume applet [02:46] MikeChelen, i want to do it programmatically. Im asked to write a parser for a log file, which excel cant import as it is. Simple solution would be just to generate a csv file which the user can import to excel. But if it was easy to generate the xsl file for excel, it would make it just abit easyer for the user [02:47] What is the package called? [02:47] anyone else having issues with the left side icon panel? [02:47] seems that upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10 worked better now than clean install [02:47] ABGD: right click and open with other, select vlc, and check always use [02:47] soreau: you mean the --> gnome-volume-control-applet [02:47] !find gnome-volume-control-applet [02:47] File gnome-volume-control-applet found in gnome-media [02:47] Poul|Raider: look for an xls library for your programming language of choice, or use open office api [02:47] polkituser:x:113:122:PolicyKit [02:48] KPJ: You will need to see the boot messages. I believe pressing ESC during boot will show them [02:48] whats the command to update ubuntu in terminal [02:48] !upgrade | HaxXxoR [02:48] HaxXxoR: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [02:48] thanks mike [02:49] thats for if you want to get the latest version [02:49] trying to install maverick, upon clicking install now after setting my resize options, it gives me a rotating circle (hourglass-type) thing for like 30 mins. Isn't the resizing supposed to occur while watching a slideshow or something? [02:49] does anyone know how to upgrade to 10.10 from TTY? [02:49] that didnt work mike lol [02:49] MikeChelen, thers no xls library for what im doing it in :D but just found some php script that writes it by writing the binary data. Just need to understand it. [02:49] i have 10.10 but im having issues and im trying to see if there is a patch or something that im missing [02:49] Dr_Willis: Cool, thanks [02:49] Poul|Raider: there are xls libraries for php, try asking in #php to find one [02:49] HaxXxor: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [02:50] Now to nuke nm-applet [02:50] It won't reinstall anything, only install missing packages [02:50] thanks hoosier [02:50] If something didn't install quite right, it probably won't fix it [02:50] Cairo|: you probably want to follow the instructions for ubuntu-server, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MaverickUpgrades#Network%20Upgrade%20for%20Ubuntu%20Servers%20(Recommended) [02:50] hey hoosier whats the diff between the update and dis upgrade [02:50] Cairo|: (they're not really server specific, but use only terminal, no gui assumed) [02:50] MikeChelen, i just found a script in php that writes the binary data. Im not doing it in php, but i should be able to translate and understand how the binary file should be constructed from it. Im writing the parser in SML [02:51] thanks [02:51] ! [02:52] hello ! I am installing 10.10 and I am stuck at the Who Are You ? screen. The forward button is grayed out. [02:52] is there any known issues with ubuntu 10.4 and large files causeing it to freeze [02:52] Arkaxow: Do the passwords match? All other boxes filled in? [02:52] yes, all green check marks [02:52] i tried installing 10.10 from usb drive . while specifying which partition to use. I specify the partition where 10.04 is installed. I get "no root point specified " error. Am on dual boot with win xp and lucid [02:52] everything filled in [02:53] Tough question. I installed 10.10 on /dev/sda3 and it work well. Now my private encrypted home is on /dev/sda2 and I want to mount it. Can I just mount it on top of /home and have it all work? (My UID and passwd haven't changed). [02:53] Arkaxow: I would try 1 of 2 things, hit back and forward to refresh the page, or select each box and re-enter all the information. [02:53] still compiz making my apps open transparent [02:54] restarting to see if the updates work [02:54] hoosierpeschke: any idea on the question i just asked? [02:55] What are some other packages like gnump3d? [02:55] I know there is a better one. [02:55] netcitizen: Are you manually setting up the partitions? [02:56] moetunes: Well now I foudn a bug. The button all the way on the right is nowhere to be found [02:56] hoosierspeak: ok. If I try those 2 things and it still doesn't work ? I did try them before and then restarted and am reinstalling now. Same effect. [02:56] soreau: how did you manage that? :] [02:57] If you move your icons back to the right, there is no X button, or whatever the button furthest to the right === cdbob_ is now known as cdbob [02:57] moetunes: It was a 'sites-enabled' file issue, by default it has allow override off, once reapplied all my base once more belong to us [02:57] moetunes: I just set the gconf key [02:57] hoosierpeschke: what is a peschke? [02:57] Arkaxow, weird, I would say try another media [02:58] so i've upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10 and it's.. well, all broken. primarily, modules.dep hasnt been built for the new kernel. how do i trigger ubuntu to build modules.dep? [02:58] jmichaelx: A last name, mine :) [02:58] I'm installing ubuntu and I'm creating the partitions manually. I want to create a 100 mb /boot partition, a 7 gb / (root) partition and a 400 mb swap partition. I already have the unpartitioned space I just want to add the partitions: which partition do I create first? I'm using a live cd and I'm presented with the options "primary" or "logical", "beginning" or "end". do I use ext3 or ext4? [02:58] UbuN2: play with the compiz settings in the 'ccsm' tool. Theres so many to twiddle with. === Guest54349 is now known as acjoven [02:58] !ccsm | UbuN2 [02:58] UbuN2: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'.

[02:58] is there any known issues with ubuntu 10.4 and large files causeing it to freeze [02:58] hoosierpschke: like install on another CD the disk image ? Or try to install on a different hard drive. I am installing from CD [02:59] stringarray: use primaries if you can. and really the use of /boot/ is proberly not going to save you much. You may as well use a single / [02:59] anyone else having graphics issues? [02:59] thanks Dr_Willis [02:59] is there anyone who is very familiar with compiz effects that i can pm for help? [02:59] i cant even click on the icons on the left side of my screen in 10.10 [02:59] stringarray: and 7gb is a little small. Ive noticed on some of my systems / becomming about 10gb (after a long time) and thats not counting the home dirs for the users. [02:59] hoosierpeschke: i'm also a hoosier, so had to ask. thought is was maybe some sort of weird german or polish term of some kind [02:59] Chaos2358: theres the #compiz channel [03:00] Chaos2358: Do not ask and leave. [03:00] jmichaelx: Nope, it is a German last name though [03:00] Chaos2358: Come to #compiz, ask and then WAIT in the channel [03:00] I have an nVidia video card and my video keeps reverting back to 800x600 everytime my computer reboots.... any ideas? [03:00] jmichaelx: :) Im in Kokomo. [03:00] i was in the compiz channel and waited almost an hour after asking [03:00] Chaos2358: check various guids and tutorials and play with CCSm. thats how i learned it.. learned to turn most of the effetcts OFF also.. [03:00] Dr_Willis do I need /boot do dual boot with XP? forgot to say it's a dual boot system. don't worry about size, it's an older laptop for my mother [03:00] Chaos2358: No you didn't wwait more than 8 minutes [03:01] any way of downgrading back in console? [03:01] Dr_Willis: yes, i remember that, i have wound up chatting with you off and on over the last several years. i live in goshen, but spent years in the bloomington area [03:01] Chaos2358: or ask the channel here.. dont expect PM's. [03:01] Arkaxow: did you select the "Install" option at boot or the "Try" option? [03:01] stringarray: theres no real need for a /boot/ correct.. its an old habbit/standard. xp and linux can dual boot without a /boot/ [03:01] the only reason i asked for pm is because its rather complex and i didnt want to take up half the channel with it but i'm heading to compiz [03:01] stringarray: I got a /boot/ but its 10GB in size.. because i keep iso files in it. that i can boot from via grub2 [03:02] bye all [03:02] hoosierpscheke: i chose install. Would try make it grayed out ? [03:02] grub2 can do that? *perk* [03:02] Dr_Willis I installed with the default partitions and grub never appeared any ideas? [03:02] Will the 10.10 installer migrate files from a previous installation of ubuntu? [03:03] Possibly, the install method, I believe, doesn't load the full GUI, try the "Try" method and double-click the "Install" icon on the desktop to see if that changes anything. [03:03] trying to install maverick, upon clicking install now after setting my resize options, it gives me a rotating circle (hourglass-type) thing for like 30 mins. Isn't the resizing supposed to occur while watching a slideshow or something? [03:03] anyone else having black box issues? [03:04] help!!! i need to install my wireless [03:04] xchat is the only thing i can get running and actually see [03:04] when i run the command lspci [03:04] it says Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev 02) [03:04] anyone can help me? [03:04] mac-rko: That seems like the built-in controller [03:04] realtek is on board [03:04] hoosierpschke: I will see what it is doing. I will be back. [03:05] Will the 10.10 installer migrate files from a previous installation of ubuntu? [03:05] in ubuntu 9.10 [03:05] it works [03:05] semitones it will tell you when you install it [03:05] None of my soundcards are detected! I don't know why, but I think it happened after editing alsa-base.conf, but i reverted the change to no luck. Can anyone help? [03:05] semitones_: if you mean personal files, yes [03:05] it automatically gets rid of some and keeps others [03:05] what is the built-in controller? === doyle is now known as Doyle [03:05] mac is the things that are on board [03:05] mac-rko: That is the physical network connection [03:05] ohh [03:06] mac-rko: My wireless card, for instance in lspci says: Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN (rev 01) [03:06] sarkofag: at what point will it do that? It's asking me if I'm ok with formatting my root partition, that has /etc/ and all my configuration in it [03:06] ok [03:06] let me see [03:06] semitones_: then you are doing a clean installtion, in that case it will not keep you personal files [03:07] my alsa input levels are too low even with alsamix settings maxed. Anything to check? [03:07] try to update instead [03:07] does anybody know how to set a different username to use with an lpd network printer? [03:07] looks like I'm not the only one with my problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1586779 [03:07] sarkofag: how do I make it keep my personal files?

[03:07] using the add printer utility i can autoconfigure this printer queue here in the library at my school... but i have a feeling if i try to print it won't work unless i can set a different username [03:07] it says this [03:07] http://pastebin.com/6WR0Zv1L [03:08] does anyone use ubuntu with nfs? [03:08] stoopkit, yes [03:08] do you know which is my wireless?? [03:08] semitones_: either backup them manually or make an dist-upgrade from your current version of ubuntu [03:08] c u all later, thanks [03:08] sarkofag: I heard you could install it rather than upgrade, but it would migrate your files over. I'd like to do that because I think some things are set up funky on this computer since it's been upgraded through the years from feisty [03:08] kellnola: what version ubuntu and is ubuntu the client or server? [03:09] hoosierpeschke: I will try a username in lowercase. According to this forum this is the answer: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1586779 [03:09] stoopkit, 10.04, client. What's your question? [03:09] Arkaxow: I saw that, let me know if it works [03:09] I need to access an ubuntu computer behind a firewall via SSH without forwarding ports. I have tried autossh but some of my locations don't maintain the connection and I'm left without access..any ideas or solutions? [03:09] kellnola: how did you get the libblkid to compile? or did you download a nfs client package somewhere? [03:10] Anyone know why when i try and open a program all i get is a black box and i cant see anything [03:10] lol, nevermind, printing to these things using lpr and turning off job accounting just works [03:10] OK, need a hand with 10.04. Most stuff I'm ok with, but this one's beyond me. Didn't happen in 9, doesn't happen in fedora. In most games the character/boat/whatever you're controlling goes tothe upper left corner on it's own. Just walks to the upper right forever. If you change the angle of the view in-game, the character will walk towards the upper left corner of the screen, has nothing to do with the actual game environment. [03:10] hoosierpeschke: it worked ! i typed in all lower case. didn't know there were restrictions on that. why ? [03:10] When I press the scroll wheel on my mouse I initate then desktop cube rolling effect, I want to rebind that to expo initialize. How can I do that? [03:11] Arkaxow: No idea, that's pretty silly, hopefully they'll fix it [03:11] Noble: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Keybindings [03:11] stoopkit, it's part of e2fsprogs, but what does that have to do with nfs? [03:12] kellnola: what about portmap? so your saying nfs works out of the box on ubuntu 10.10 ? [03:12] stoopkit, it's worked out of the box since forever [03:12] Where can I find an updated Release Notes doc (for 10.10) online? The URL listed in the onjoin msg (ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes) simply forwards you to the maverick-beta notes. Surely the Release has different notes than the Beta...? [03:12] Noble, dig into ccsm -> expo & ccsm -> desktop cube [03:13] I have to keep resetting my PATH. Anyone know how to set it to stay [03:13] abb, not yet [03:13] joe_ed: add "export PATH=" to your ~/.bashrc and itll be set every time you open a shell [03:13] HaxXxoR: thanks, just wanted to confirm [03:13] its all good im having graphics issues with my 10.10 [03:13] joe_ed, ~/.bashrc [03:14] abb, HaxXxoR: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MaverickMeerkat/ReleaseNotes [03:14] stoopkit, installing nfs-common will install portmap, I'm pretty sure that's all you need unless you're using nfs4 [03:14] joe_ed, like : export PATH="$PATH:/new/path" [03:14] I can not boot from the ubuntu 10.10 i386 cd I downloaded today. Boots ok but the scren is garbage. Any advice? [03:14] how do i roll back my upgrade from 10.10 back to 10.04?

[03:15] let alone being usable [03:15] HaxXxoR: lshw [03:15] vox, to downgrade is way more fraustrating than reinstall [03:15] I upgraded to 10.04, and now I cannot hear anything from Skype; but people can hear me. How can I possibly configure things so that this might work. I can hear any other application I attempt. Can anyone help me? [03:16] icarus-c: reinstalling is going to take a day to make it usable, which isnt an option either [03:16] help!, i can't configure mi wireless it says wireless is disabled, when i put lspci it says http://pastebin.com/6WR0Zv1L [03:16] help me plese [03:16] please [03:16] HaxXxoR, lspci for PCI, lsusb for usb, cat /proc/cpuinfo for cpu, fdisk -l for disk layout... [03:16] i shouldnt /have/ to reinstall it [03:16] i need one that specifically shows graphics [03:16] Lxndr, in Preferences -> Sound (hardware tab) what profile is it using? is it "duplex"? [03:16] kellnola, nfs-common is distributed with Ubuntu, right? Not a webdownload? [03:16] i am trying to fix this dumb black box thing [03:16] stoopkit, yes [03:17] stoopkit, apt-get install nfs-common portmap [03:17] mac-rko: have you tried right clicking on the network icon? [03:17] abb: No problem [03:17] yes [03:17] but the option is off [03:17] kellnola: It says 'internal audio - analog stereo duplex' [03:17] stoopkit: nfs-common is indeed available, I have it installed on my beta/test box; it's undoubtedly available in the (release) repos as well. [03:17] ie, is transparent proxy possible without NAT? [03:17] in the latest version my wireless funtion perfectly [03:17] i just upgrade to maverick === cdbob_ is now known as cdbob [03:18] HaxXxoR, or lshw [03:18] i have no wireless, it worked fine on 10.04. anybody having problems getting their ar5001 wireless chip to work?

RTL8187B Wireless Adapter [03:19] can anyone else actually use the icons on the left side of the screen? [03:19] Anyone know how to set PATH [03:19] Lxndr, sorry, I'm at a loss ... [03:19] What is some data mining software i can find in the repositiories? [03:19] mac-rko: my wireless works *okay* (it's a BCM4322 so it's kind of hit and miss, thanks broadcom!) but hopefully it will *continue* to work upon upgrade. Lol. First need to remove all these darn PPAs/repos and make sure my system is nice and clean for when the Upgrade Fairy visits. [03:20] OK, need a hand with 10.04. Most stuff I'm ok with, but this one's beyond me. Didn't happen in 9, doesn't happen in fedora. In most games the character/boat/whatever you're controlling goes tothe upper left corner on it's own. Just walks to the upper right forever. If you change the angle of the view in-game, the character will walk towards the upper left corner of the screen, has nothing to do with the actual game environment.

I've come in here almost every day trying to ask, and have posts on the forum, but nobody's listened before. :D (Or at least nobody's answered) [03:20] joe_ed, you have been told..... write something like "export PATH=$PATH:/new/path " to ~/.bashrc [03:21] ok guys will keep trying ill see you guys tomorrow [03:21] tried that path.. next time I login it's got to be set again. [03:21] Holy shiite. [03:21] anyone know why touchfreeze is no longer available? [03:21] joe_ed: like icarus-c said; also, if you're on the cmdline, you can then type: . ~/.bashrc that's a period, space, then the path to your .bashrc file) and it will re-run your bashrc so you can confirm it works correctly. [03:21] is there a way to prevent logout after 30 minutes with vpnc? [03:22] Lxndr, does this help? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype [03:23] mac-rko: would this work? http://quilombo.wordpress.com/2008/03/07/realtek-rtl8187b-working-in-ubuntu-710-using-ndiswrapper/ [03:23] thaks let me check [03:23] does anyone know any good programming turtials for linux? [03:23] joe_ed: by the way, if you need to wrap quotes around the path (due to a weirdly-formatted directory or whatever) be sure to use double-quotes, not single quotes. ie, export PATH="$PATH:/new/path/to/add" I used single quotes one time and ended up with a path of "$PATH" lol.

[03:25] Aemaeth: yea, I couls always start fresh I suppose [03:25] i was able to make another partition, but having this ecryptfs problem [03:26] crimsun, I have no idea what that means. so it was removed from debian testing, ok .. [03:26] Aemaeth: ah, well I don't think I would have that problem. [03:26] bl01zk: depends .. [03:26] Thank you all. I'm going to take your ideas and try it. I really appreciate the help. [03:26] im running ubuntu remix and just did the upgrade. but im still getting the old interface with the new one. Can someone help a newbie fix this? [03:26] seems like dist-upgrade failed partially as well, so just trying to fix that now too [03:26] kellnola: I just went through everything on the troubleshooting page, and still no dice.

That's getting darn close to my couple of Ubuntu servers (running 10.10 beta at the moment), both x86/i686 arch. Does this quote imply that soon (11.04, maybe?) the i686 architecture will be gone, too? [03:30] vzee: maybe the mirror you use hasn't got it yet [03:31] good luck restoring a windows 7, that's why i deleted the partition and made linux that much stronger [03:31] Xase: have you tried cdrecord?

You only do something special if you need to run as another user (like root) [03:52] rifter it gave an input output error [03:52] ^Mike\b gotcha thank you [03:52] <^Mike\b> Chaos2358: good luck ^_^ [03:53] Diverdude: libimobiledevice-dev [03:53] JoeMaverickSett, I haven't read the instructions yet to see what you put in there before that but once you chroot you only have the libraries and commands you put in the new root [03:53] ^Mike\b, I installed rather than upgraded, lol, but now my home folder didn't belong to me anymore, so I had to change it to be me again [03:53] SquireCD just verify that in preferences > mouse > accessibility , no option is ticked [03:53] im running a Pentium dual core @ 2.20 Ghz and i was wondering will i notice much change in switching to the 64bit from 32bit as far as speed in web browsing, multitasking, gaming?

[03:57] <^Mike\b> mee: doubtful. maybe someone will call via skype [03:57] <^Mike\b> mee: or ekiga [03:57] k i have that [03:57] * icarus-c imagines how horrible it would be to talk about Unix stuff on phone :P [03:57] Can somebody help me pls? === cdbob_ is now known as cdbob [03:57] whats your name [03:57] can anyone tell me if 64 bit is really worth switching to [03:57] Diverdude: did libimobiledevice-utils also get installed? [03:57] I have two laptops connected through the same router but they can't see each other in the network nautilus window [03:57] nope [03:57] <^Mike\b> fengshaun: yes [03:57] SquireCD it initiates a click when pointer is idle for certain amount of time [03:57] i4team: I can't do it manually through the ubuntu partition manager? [03:57] izardstreet, I think so [03:57] izardstreet, why not 64bit? [03:57] whats your skype name [03:57] izardstreet, if you have 64 bit hardware you may as well run 64 bit code [03:57] ^Mike\b, cool, thanks a lot! [03:57] IdleOne: Thx. I could find that I can't. [03:57] if I do a clean install can I still restore my simple backup from a removable drive that I took ownership of? [03:57] izardstreet, I dan't think so [03:57] <^Mike\b> fengshaun: there is actually a special command to upgrade between releases, now that I think of it... but it should work fine [03:58] <^Mike\b> fengshaun: it's how I upgraded, and it is fine [03:58] I had to build git libimobiledevice and usbmuxd. [03:58] mee, where does %appdat% go in Windows ? [03:58] <^Mike\b> mee: asking me? [03:58] <^Mike\b> !tag | mee [03:58] all i had was a 32bit install disk and i've been running 32bit for awhile, i just was wondering if its worth wiping everything and starting with 64 bit if i'm gonna be noticing the boost in speed [03:58] ^Mike\b, oh alright, as long as I won't have data loss [03:58] izardstreet, there's no pain in jumping anymore.. they've had like 10 yearsto work on this :D [03:58] <^Mike\b> !tab | mee [03:58] mee: You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.

At least I didn't.

[03:58] maynardwv1, use samba [03:58] Flannel, thanks [03:59] Diverdude: I am going just by description but I would think the -utils package would include that deviceinfo [03:59] not sure [03:59] !samba [03:59] Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT.

For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [03:59] not even a speed boost in gaming where 100% cpu is used [03:59] i have problem with the dual boot, after installing ubuntu, Windows 7 is on the list but it doesnt boot, its come back to brug over and over again [03:59] grub* [03:59] if4team: I have 80gb of free space to allocate for / home and swap [03:59] IdleOne, yah, got it [03:59] thanks rifter / obuttu [03:59] thx [03:59] Diverdude: sure thing [03:59] Amaranth: i would've thought by now that ubuntu would've gotten its act together..

[04:01] rantic_: alright .. Pm please [04:01] no [04:01] Anyone having trouble with Gwibber? [04:01] Anyone know how to solve an issue with the intellimouse back button not being detected by xev or xinput test? [04:01] ok rifter chroot worked this time... not sure why it didnt last time... [04:01] I'm updating atm [04:01] mee: then why dont U just copy to your home dir? [04:02] izardstreet, 1~5 fps higher with 64bit maybe? :P [04:02] my issue is I can't add accounts to Gwibber, e.g. Facebook accounts, it just tells me Success and maximizes the window; I'mma bet no one has a fix for it yet [04:02] i dont understand [04:02] <^Mike\b> slooksterpsv1: What does "trouble" mean? [04:02] hmm not significant thanks [04:02] <^Mike\b> slooksterpsv1: in maverick?

[04:03] So rantic_ [04:03] IdleOne, hmm shouldnt there be a manage springboard menu entry available on the iphone device icon on the desktop after installation? [04:04] skype appdata in ~/.Skype/ [04:04] Help! I just upgraded ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10. I tried startx but it results in unable to connect to x server [04:04] Diverdude: you got me dude. I don't own an iphone [04:04] Tashia: you aswell hey? [04:04] I upgraded from Karmic to Maverick today from cd, which deletes all system files and replaces them. In users-admin application the change, advanced settings, and add buttons do not work now (clicking them does nothing) my normal user had had some desktop problems from old . directories so I moved them; that didn't fix this though. I logged in directly as root and no joy there, either [04:04] mee: mee, like firefox appdata will be in ~/.mozilla/firefox || the ~ folder is your home folder [04:04] I'm having issues with nVidia GeForce 8400 on recent upgrade from 10.4 to 10.10 64bit. I'm able to boot recovery mode and use SafeGraphics mode but the Nvidia drivers with 10.10 don't seem to work. Any ideas... other than getting a different video card? [04:04] I4Team: I query'd you? I'm using a web client it says I already spoke to you [04:04] How do I get a GUI? [04:05] <^Mike\b> Tashia: What do you mean? [04:05] i dont completely understand but will you call me on skype [04:05] IdleOne, how do i see all installed devices from the sudo apt-get install libimobiledevice-utils ? [04:05] for help [04:05] mutineer612: first you should file a bug report and see if anyone else has these issues, imo [04:05] IdleOne, or installed programs [04:05] or no? [04:05] trying to get wireless working on hardy heron wpa-personal tkip but cannot ... do u recomment wpa supplicant? [04:05] mee: please put the nickname of the person your talking to [04:06] anyone [04:06] ^Mike\b, My computer boots into a prompt not GUI. I tried startx but it doesnt work [04:06] rantic_: O' didn't notice anything .. [04:06] Tashia: try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start [04:06] will i have to do this all the time? [04:06] <^Mike\b> Tashia: Is this a fresh install? upgrade? [04:06] can i get a yes or no? [04:06] mee: I don't speak english very well. i'm brazilian. [04:06] Tashia: did it work? [04:06] ilovefairuz, I have thought of the solution - go to the icon representing the usb and unmount it. That worked. Thanks for your help [04:06] Tashia, you waht sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [04:06] thats ok [04:07] Tashia, restarting gdm (the gui login) also restarts the x server [04:07] drcooper, No it didn't it says try using service. Serivice is not installed [04:07] Diverdude: Like I said I was going by description. as for what libimobiledevice-utils includes I am not sure how to get that info [04:07] Tashia, but try ctrl-altf7 or ctrl-alt-f8 the gui is usually on 7th or 8th terminal [04:07] are there any c programers in here? [04:07] mee: answer the private chat here on IRC [04:07] Tashia, you can shift through the, [04:07] <^Mike\b> bl01zk: try ##c [04:07] how [04:08] Tashia, if it is really broken you can view /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see what happened [04:08] hello [04:08] mee: you should have a tab named nick123 [04:09] ya it went away [04:09] click on my nick on the left column [04:09] mee: ok do this [04:09] modesetting driver set [04:09] type /msg nick123 hello [04:09] bl01zk, depends on what level of programming you are lookng for I would think.. what do you need? [04:09] how do i unset it [04:09] ohhh [04:09] does anyone know how to detect a monitor on ubuntu 10.10 and intel dq57tm mobo? [04:10] Hi. Is 10.10 in beta? [04:10] mee, what is so hard to understand? ..... firefox in $HOME/.mozilla/firefox/ , skype in $HOME/.Skype , mplayer in $HOME/.mplayer ..... [04:10] <^Mike\b> PianoMan: No, it was released earlier today [04:10] <^Mike\b> PianoMan: I don't recommend using it for production systems until the first point release though. Or at all (LTS is a better bet) [04:11] not for production only entertainment [04:11] houmala, if you have an nvdia card or the like then installing the native "restricted" driver for that might help. if the monitor is not detected you will hav eto set the refresh rate and resolution manually based on monitor specs, but for newer monitors they are pretty straightforward [04:11] mike: ok, thanks [04:11] mee, it would probably harder to talk on phone. like you want us to say "in your dollar-sign capital HOME folder, dot application name folder is the percent-sign appdata percent-sign equivalent" ?... [04:11] Hi [04:12] this is new mobo monitor is samsung several years old [04:12] <^Mike\b> houmala: give'er :) [04:12] mee, we could help you better if you would tell us what you are tryingto do specifically [04:12] exactly [04:12] <^Mike\b> houmala: sorry, I confused you with someone else :) [04:12] mee, there is no reason to put a file in an %appdata% folder in linux because there is not one [04:12] hey... i used " synclient touchpadoff=1 " too turn my touchpad off before, but I was also tinkering with other things when that worked... now after restarting it doesnt work anymore. Any ideas for what I can look at too get it to turn off again? [04:12] no probl [04:13] mee, except if we are talking a specific application, then it is the appropriate .directory like we were saying [04:13] It sets touchpadoff to 1, but that doesnt disable the touchpad... [04:13] can i run antivirus on ubuntu server that will protect all other windows based lan machines on the network [04:13] ? [04:13] ? [04:13] can i run antivirus on ubuntu server that will protect all other windows based lan machines on the network? [04:13] I've got a funny problem. After I upgraded Maverick to stable, the number pad on my computer turned into a mouse mover. What gives? [04:14] scotty00: I was going to answer you, but now I will not. [04:14] <^Mike\b> !clamav | scotty00 [04:14] rifter, mee well maybe ~/.config ~/.cache would be *closer* to %appdata% [04:14] <^Mike\b> scotty00: well, it is called clamav, but ubottu doesn't know anything about that, apparently :) [04:14] !virus [04:14] Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus [04:14] not many app put stuff in .config & .cache instead of . though [04:14] I need to show some pictures in a specific order, not alphabetically. How can I do this? [04:15] mike\b clam av can monitor real time other windows pc from the server yes [04:15] rallias, I have seen that done before as part of X [04:15] and can clam av also scan emails [04:15] m i going to have to reinstall 10.04 then 10.10?? [04:15] msl: can you point me in the vague direction of a fix? [04:15] <^Mike\b> scotty00: no, it is for scanning email passing through your email server (only)... check out the link ubottu gave you [04:15] <^Mike\b> scotty00: I'm not aware of anything that can scan another machine [04:16] I have no sound on Xubuntu 10.10, but did in Ubuntu 9.04! Alsamixer is unmuted, /dev/dsp is also silent. my lsmod: http://pastebin.com/9a8VkHZs HELP!! [04:16] * feher [04:16] * feher = Smilodonis [04:16] scotty00: avg does what your asking for as long as you mount the other machine as a samba mount or sommat [04:16] happyfac1, #xubuntu [04:16] * feher [04:16] rallias, sounds liek an accessability setting [04:16] AbhiJit: they don't know [04:16] ok [04:16] mee, one more thing, folder or file name begin with a dot "." will be hidden. unless you use ls command with -a/-A OR press Ctrl-H in ubuntu file browser [04:16] rallias, Desktop-->Preferences-->Accessibility-->Keyboard and turn off the "Mouse Keys" option [04:16] maybe [04:16] I found that in a forum. [04:16] Eye of Gnome can only display pictures in alphabetical order. (or maybe by some other systemic option, but that doesn't help) I need to get it or something similar to show pictures according to an order I specify - how? [04:17] msl: There isn't an accessability option [04:17] msl nvm found it [04:17] rallias, hmm except I am not seeing it .. I'll look [04:17] Rallias i have been looking at avg as cross platform software but was really looking for open source to run on actuall server === I4Team_ is now known as I4Team [04:17] msl, ah under "keyboard ic" [04:17] scotty00: rig up a clamav script [04:17] anyone know how much testing the 64-bit livecd gets? (it's giving all sorts of problems on me, when trying to install 10.10, while 10.04 worked) [04:18] How big should swap space be if my RAM is 3GB? [04:18] I found a way. Recovery mode then reconfigure graphics [04:18] yep ill look into clam av more i think [04:18] LinOS: Do you want to be able to hibernate? [04:18] My intel WiFi Link 5100 card stopped working after one boot after a fresh install of 10.10 [04:18] LinOS Rule of thumb is 2 times as big as ram. [04:18] LinOS If you do the math for you that would be 6 gb [04:19] "2 times RAM" is overkill for more than about a GB. [04:19] anyone got an idea about my buttons in users-admin not working? [04:19] What do I need for fingerprint reading with ubuntu? [04:19] rallias: That is old rule of thumb -- When RAM was a relic. [04:19] if you want to use hibernate, have about 4gb... otherwise, use 1gb. [04:19] ^^^ this [04:19] Geez, empathy sucks with IRC.... [04:19] undecim: yup [04:19] undecimdid u did u install driver [04:19] belak, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ThinkFinger [04:20] who do i speak to that can help me with a compliant about rude people in this room [04:20] rww: I find that rule of the thumb useful so that Bind can have supersized page files. [04:20] scotty00, in #ubuntu-ops [04:20] undecim did u install wifi driver [04:20] LinOS, if you use Hibernation (suspend to disk) , as least 3GB of swap. otherwise 500MB is probably sufficient [04:20] undecim try xchat [04:20] undecim that is what I use.. it's pretty good [04:20] LinOS, adjust if you use that much of swap [04:20] who here i s a mac ?? and knows how to install a .jar file, i heard i subbosed ti e the same as linux === cdbob_ is now known as cdbob [04:21] VirusTB, java -jar blah.jar [04:21] VirusTB, it is, basically. those are java program files [04:21] VirusTB, yeah what icarus said [04:21] icarus-c: ok but where does the file go on a mac, after waords? so i can run it [04:21] rifter: but how do i start the app now? [04:21] VirusTB, how do i know... [04:21] Is there any way I can show images in a specific order during a slideshow instead of just alphabetically? [04:21] VirusTB, send me a mac so i can study it a bit and help :D [04:22] are there any stats for how many people downloaded ubuntu 10.10 so far? [04:22] VirusTB, oh on the mac.. well it kind of depends. You can put it under applications and if .jar is associated with java you hsoudl be okay [04:22] VirusTB, in fact, where the files go depends on the program [04:22] VirusTB, you can run it from anywhere but at least if you put it there you know ehre it is [04:22] last step doesn't work [04:22] http://dpaste.org/Uft6/ [04:22] VirusTB: *.jar? Sounds like Java. You have Java apps installed? [04:23] My Intel WiFi Link 5100 stopped working after one boot after a fresh install of 10.10. It still works on the live usb, and iwconfig on the installed system reports that it doesn't have wireless-n (which is does on the live usb) I've checked, and all the kernel modules, the kernel itself, and every wireless tool or related udev file I can find all have identical MD5s to what is on the live system. Is anyone else having this issue? [04:23] VirusTB: double-click it? [04:23] rifter: so i can just put the .jar file in my applicatons folder on mac? [04:23] VirusTB, sure [04:23] mtucker: tried double clicking already [04:23] VirusTB, anyway, try #macosx but i suppose the specific program's manual tells better [04:23] icarus-c: i got a crppy 3rd hand macbook :P [04:23] VirusTB: This isn't a Mac channel, this is an Ubuntu channel. In Ubuntu, you put it wherever you want. [04:23] undecim, 32-bit or 64-bit? [04:23] ok, so the new problem for the day: not getting any gui. ubuntu splash screens work, starts to load gdm then the screen gets shut off. tried restarting gdm, no effect. tried the other head on the gfx card, its not being used. check xorg logs, gdm logs and syslogs and cant see anything throwing an error. where to from here? [04:23] VirusTB, then make a shortcut to it and make sure .jar is assocuiated with java [04:23] Dandel: 64 [04:24] rww, it works the same way everywhere basically [04:24] undecim does lspci list ur wireless card? [04:24] AbhiJit, http://dpaste.org/Uft6/ [04:24] drcooper: yes. So does iwconfig, but it reports that it doesn't have wireless n [04:24] vox: using nvidia? [04:24] VirusTB, well you need to associate .jar with java I forget where you do that on a mac there is prolly a mac channel [04:24] moetunes: correct [04:24] undecim, i think the 64-bit iso might be broken... i'm getting problems with installation (although i use advanced partitioning) [04:24] VirusTB, make sure you have java installed [04:24] drcooper: Trying to force N mode with sudo iwconfig wlan0 modu 11n doesn't work [04:25] vox: remove the proprietry driver then [04:25] Dandel: No, because my wifi works fine on the live system [04:25] i just downloaded the ubuntu iso. has anyone installed the os, by putting the iso image as a grub entry? I'm using grub2 [04:25] undecim u dont have hardware switched off right ? :D [04:25] needanick, grub can't boot an iso image [04:25] drcooper: Right. I can list wireless networks even, but can't connect... probably should have mentioned that XD [04:25] is there anyway i can install gtk+3 on maverick [04:25] i need it for developing [04:26] needanick, you need to use the iso to burn a disc or make a liveusb [04:26] VirusTB, you might also look to support for whatever app that is [04:26] My language is missing in Language support. Can i use the install CD to fix my language? [04:26] I downloaded the iso twice and checked the md5 both times... i'm getting I/O errors on firefox with the live cd (and live usb) and the installer crashes in the middle. [04:26] undecim so not a driver issue i guess [04:26] I'm on Ubuntu 10.04, 32 bit right now and want to put Ubuntu 10.10, 64 bit on another laptop and move all my files to it. On the 10.04 computer I have the encrypted home drive enabled. If I choose the same login password (which I believe is the same as the "pass phrase"?) on the new computer will my encryption key be the same and thus I can just copy my encrypted files to the new computer? Or should I copy the unencrypted files [04:26] over to the new computer and let it encrypt them? [04:26] rifter: i did , their instructions are very unclear!! [04:26] belak, i dunno [04:26] drcooper: I've looked through udev rules and scripts as well, and can't find anything that is different from the live system [04:26] undecim what network are you trying to connect to [04:26] icarus-c:http://bit.ly/A7QwE [04:26] does anyone know anything about configuring alsa? [04:26] undecim ad-hoc? [04:27] VirusTB, there is a #macosx channel here... here lemme take this into priovate [04:27] ilanam, alsaconf , alsamixer ? [04:27] drcooper: I have two unencrypted (mac address filtered, but I checked that) networks on my house, and 3 neighbors with open wifi [04:27] drcooper: I can connect to any of those in the live system, none in the installed system [04:28] icarus-c, alsaconf, i've been messing with alsa-base.conf for a while now [04:28] i cant sign into empathy with my google talk account. i get a network error. its only for that 1account. my other account works fine. any ideas what could be wrong ? [04:28] guys, i've uninstalled pulseaudio, and i'd like to have my volume icon back. is there an alternative that also allows turning the volume dial on your laptop? [04:28] needanick, well, seems like i'm still stuck with grub1 :P [04:28] furi, try gnome-volume-control-applet [04:29] ilanam: already tried that [04:29] icarus-c: ya, even i was amazed when i saw this as an an option [04:29] ** (gnome-volume-control-applet:2104): WARNING **: Connection failed, reconnecting... [04:29] drcooper: What's really weird is dmesg showed that it associated, but then disociated === OerHeks is now known as Oer [04:30] hey guys.. i was wondering if someone could either offer a tutorial or just help me setup gparted for dual booting windows and ubuntu 10.10? [04:30] Phrosty1, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot [04:30] icarus-c: im having a problem with my mic settings vs my speakers... it seems to be an either or situation in terms of them working, have you heard of anythign like that? [04:30] ilanam: ** (gnome-volume-control-applet:2141): WARNING **: Connection failed, reconnecting... [04:31] i cant sign into empathy with my google talk account. i get the error "network error". its only for that 1account. my other account works fine. any ideas what could be wrong ? i double checked the password and its correct. [04:31] Phrosty1: I have one for ya [04:31] furi: yeah hm, i ran it earlier today and it worked [04:31] drcooper: I think it's due to a misconfiguration of the card, but I can't figured out what's wrong... The card shows up wrong in iwconfig (no N mode), and doesn't seem to communicate with the kernel properly... I've checked everything I can think of [04:31] furi: you just ran it from the terminal? [04:31] ilanam: yes [04:31] thanks yo [04:31] undecim http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-help-here/network-internet/429910-wireless-works-live-session-stops-working-once-installed.html [04:31] undecim the link gives a similar case [04:31] when i go to System>Preferences>System Settings>Multimedia, the option for pulseaudio as the preferred output device is grayed out, can anyone help?

[04:33] LinOS, nice ... [04:33] hello. i'm looking for some help from anyone with Ubuntu NBR installation experience. I've installed it on an Eee netbook and now it seems to go to sleep mode during boot sequence. No way to wake it up. [04:33] moetunes: ok, did that, set the driver in xorg.conf to nv, and now its stuck on the ubuntu splash screen - gdm is not appearing [04:34] I can't find a way to show photos in a slideshow in any order besides alphabetical. I also don't want by date, by size, by type... I want to manually determine the display order. How can I do that? [04:34] vox it may take awhile to load pastthe splash screen [04:34] rifter: longer than 5 minutes? [04:34] furi: did you google the error message [04:34] What the hell happend to the "use largest continuous free space" option [04:34] alazyworkaholic, fspot lets you reorder slideshows I think [04:34] ? [04:34] furi: last ditch advice... [04:34] ilanam: yes [04:34] would anyone have some time/skill patience to piece together an existing transcoding perl script ? [04:34] undecim no idea [04:34] vox: do it without a xorg.conf - X will sort itself out fine [04:34] alazyworkaholic: what app are you using. does it allow you to make albums? [04:34] vox, I dunno depends on the hardware and what version you are running [04:35] rifter: no luck with Fspot [04:35] if i post a screenshot can you guys tel me if i did it right please? [04:35] vox, I admit that might be awhile to wait.. you might try opening a terminal and seeing what is going on there [04:35] moetunes: trying that [04:35] rifter: it's a dual-core opteron. there's no error messages of any kind [04:35] vox: luck :] [04:35] I don't suppose anyone here can give me some assistance troubleshooting my samba shares ... They were working and now they aren't .. and the log file is especially unhelpful [04:36] Phrosty1, well it woudl help sure [04:36] nootrope: I had hoped I might just rearrange the photos in their folder then use eye of gnome, the default viewer, but that didn't work. [04:36] ok cool [04:36] rommy03, maybe .. sometimes it has to do with the windows side and sometimes it is the samba side [04:36] Is there any chance I can fix the network error on my Empathy or should I just ditch it and open three other programs to do the same thing? [04:36] can someone please tell me if this is ready to dual boot and install? [04:36] http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/6915/screenshotaxr.png [04:36] rommy03, you should try using smbclient and seee if you can access them [04:36] hahaha and now my raidset has vanished [04:37] rommy03, that will help you troubleshoot [04:37] this is awesome [04:37] installing ubuntu as we speak [04:37] alazyworkaholic: I've not used EoG but if it allows you to make albums, that's the customary way of customizing presentation order. Like playlists. [04:37] from the server or my workstation? [04:37] rommy03, try to think what might have changed but windows shares can sometimes be tricky :D [04:37] litterally, it "coping files" [04:37] can you guys please take a look at my screenshot? i really would apprecaite the help [04:37] I have an old D-link wireless card. I used it with ndiswrapper in earlier Ubuntus, and it worked alright. Now I'm running 10.10 and have setup ndiswrapper, which reports that the driver is installed and the hardware is present. But the entire rest of the computer seems unaware--iwconfig doesn't show the card, neither does the network manager. Help! [04:37] anyone having problems with simple scan after the update? [04:37] rommy03, form the linux system that is supposed to be accessing the shares [04:37] Phrosty1: whats ur issue?

[04:38] I guess I'll just dump empathy... [04:38] nootrope: Albums? don't think so. I don't even see that ability in fspot. What would you use? [04:38] linux [04:38] Phrosty1, sure where is the screenshot again [04:38] ubuntu works ! [04:38] Phrosty1, no, don't worry about that [04:38] can everyone please check to see if this is ok [04:38] http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/6915/screenshotaxr.png [04:38] 10.10 ! [04:38] hello [04:39] I thank the ubuntu team for a awesome Operating System i think they deserve all te praise for the time they put in and gives us it FREE ... thanks once again :))) [04:39] no one? [04:39] nite guys [04:39] hello [04:39] nite [04:39] Phrosty1, /boot is something that'll reside on your /dev/sda3. People sometimes put them on a seperate partition for a couple of reasons, but you won't need to [04:39] so the windows partition is ok the way it is? grub will definitely recognize it? [04:39] Phrosty1, looks okay to me [04:39] i'm ready to install? [04:40] Phrosty1, it's not guaranteed it'll recognise it, but it's easily fixed, so just go ahead and install [04:40] Phrosty1, and no you do not want /boot on a ntfs partition it has to be a linux filesystem. but it will be in / like they said [04:40] ok thanks [04:40] i'm gonna try to install now [04:40] i know i'm not the only one: http://goo.gl/Gd5D [04:40] wish me luck :D [04:40] Phrosty1, okey [04:40] does anyone recommend a different IRC client than Xchat ? [04:40] Phrosty1, my fingers are all crossed [04:40] arkaxow: irssi [04:40] BEIITA, what scan? [04:40] arkaxow, irssi gets a lot of praise, though it's a command-line client [04:41] thanks guys [04:41] also.. xchat is the best [04:41] by far [04:41] lol [04:41] as if. [04:41] the only client better than xchat is mirc :P [04:41] arkaxow: pidgin is pretty easy to use [04:41] whats wrong with pidgin [04:41] arkaxow, pidgin does irc and there is a mozilla extension for it too [04:41] deco: thanks I will try that. xchat seems hard to figure out, maybe I should give it time. [04:41] doing != doing well [04:41] ilanam: thanks [04:41] arkaxow: np :) [04:41] Simple Scan [04:42] rifter: the defaul scan program [04:42] arkaxow, there is also bitchx I think there is a gui of that even though it is command line [04:42] BEIITA, scanning for what? [04:42] First came Hardy, then Karmic, then Lucid and now Maverick. H,K,L and M. What happend to I and J ? [04:42] Isn't there a screensaver that is an entire screen of different colors all at once? [04:42] hmm I can connect from smbclient but not from gnomes... [04:42] to scan a file from a printer/scanner rifter [04:42] Diverdude, we already had Jaunty [04:42] Diverdude, and I think Intrepid [04:43] rifter, ahh right [04:43] BEIITA, oh that [04:43] intrepid ibex and jaunty jackass [04:43] rifter: it scans the documet but as soon as it finishes, it closes [04:43] brb, i'm going to try rebooting.. [04:43] BEIITA, I dunno check and see if gimp can see it [04:43] How can I set up vpnc to automatically connect to my default vpn so all I have to enter is my username and password? ... I'd like to not have to enter my IP Gateway, Group UN and PW... [04:43] rifter: it worked great until today [04:43] alazyworkaholic: sorry, not at my linux box right now and no way to get there. fspot doesn't allow albums? [04:43] XSANE works, but i hate it [04:43] BEIITA, might be a scanner driver thing or something I dunno === cdbob_ is now known as cdbob [04:43] BEIITA, okay so try gimp [04:44] BEIITA, that is pretty good for this sort of thing [04:44] rifter: where can pidgin ? I am looking through software center. and i find pidgin internet messenger [04:44] i entered a vpnc.conf file in /etc/vpn/ , but i still have to enter the information every time [04:44] arkaxow, yes that is it just install the irc plugin [04:44] rifter: how do i scan in GIMP [04:44] arkaxow, it does multiple chat types [04:45] BEIITA, lemme double check exact location but it should be something under file [04:45] I accidentally the top-right social menu. How to get it back? [04:45] is there an option I need to put in after typing sudo vpnc? [04:45] rifter: it seems like Trillian === sorah_off is now known as sora_h [04:46] hi all [04:46] arkaxow, yeah it does lots of chat types kind of like trillian does [04:46] i have instaled libimobiledevice-util, but i do not have sbmanager on my system. How can that be? [04:46] I rebooted and my nvidia dual monitors quit working [04:46] arkaxow, bitchx is a dedicated irc client I used to use that [04:47] nootrope: thanks anyway. If fspot allows albums for the slideshow I want, it's not obvious. Do you know of any other way of showing a set of pictures in a defined sequence, with the transition only upon a click or keystroke? I don't mind pressing ctrl-alt-F1 & using some command-line utility or script. [04:47] nomad, check the nvidia-settings thingie undersystem -> administration [04:48] i cant find the upgrade [04:48] rifter: that is great ! I need something like that for my transition from Windows XP to ubuntu [04:48] arkaxow, it is a terminal console program but I think there are gui versions.. I am checking [04:48] alazyworkaholic: OpenOffice Impress? [04:48] rifter I have went all through that,it still shows both monitors but the second one I cannot get on [04:48] i cant upgrade [04:48] nomad, hmm I am unsure how to proceed form there.. I think there is a dual monitor page in the wikis [04:49] speed: in update check options make it is not on LTS only [04:49] thanks rifter for trying [04:49] I will look into that [04:49] nootrope: I guess that'll be the fallback if I don't find anything easier. Thanks. [04:49] any issues with 10.10? [04:49] before i try and download/install [04:49] deadman: none that I know of other than used lowercase with the username. [04:49] I am willing to let someone remote acess me via team viewer or any other method they prefer [04:49] alazyworkaholic: sorry I'm not at my desk or I'd be able to what-if with you. good luck [04:50] dajiahao [04:50] haha every time you guys say viewer i get poked [04:50] i will be back. closing Xchat and trying pidgin [04:50] My Intel WiFi Link 5100 stopped working after one boot after a fresh install of 10.10. It still works on the live usb, and iwconfig on the installed system reports that it doesn't have wireless-n (which is does on the live usb) I've checked, and all the kernel modules, the kernel itself, and every wireless tool or related udev file I can find all have identical MD5s to what is on the live system. Is anyone else having this issue? [04:50] DeadmanIncJS: i installed it today and works better than 10.04 [04:50] Where can I download the Plasma screensaver? [04:50] were is those settings? [04:50] rifter: i used gimp + xsane , it will do for now [04:50] rifter: thanks [04:51] <^DEMOSS^> excuse me - i do not remember - how i can share folder /var/share for all windows machine in local server with login SHARE and password SHARE [04:51] what is the command in terminal to UPGRADE? i don't want to wipe completely [04:51] <^DEMOSS^> how i can do that ?

[05:15] WFeather: no panels sucks i had that problem once [05:15] had win 7 installed, installed behind it on the SSD, installed to "/" [05:15] list *pure* [05:15] err [05:15] as EXT4 [05:15] sorry [05:15] TurinTurambar, it connects here. use your email has the username [05:15] jrmy: then "man man" [05:15] TurinTurambar, could be password or another setting .. make sure the domain is set to the google one unless you have your own google app domain [05:16] rifter, i just setup one user, so not sure where it was placed havent done much linux lately saw touch was fully supported now [05:16] TurinTurambar, there is a #pidgin channel on here, too [05:16] okay I'm trying that now rifter and Procule, should I put anything in 'resource'? [05:16] hello, I have a windows/linux dualboot set up and I would like to set the windows partition to be root access only, how would I do this? [05:16] The netbook remix interface change was MASSIVE [05:16] KB1JWQ: are you telling me to put that as a command? [05:16] jrmy: What a concept. :-) Yes. [05:17] <-- noob [05:17] I accidentally the top-right social menu. How to get it back? [05:17] is there something to put into fstab to make windows accessible only by root? [05:17] TurinTurambar, also: http://www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=49147 [05:17] TurinTurambar, ressource is just a string that identify your connection. You could put "Home", "Work", "Ubuntu" [05:17] I accidentally the top-right social/shutdown/etc menu. How to get it back? [05:17] Xuzz: Stop asking repeatedly. [05:17] :( [05:18] okay thanks I'll check the link and #pidgin if necessary [05:18] Hrm. Suspend seems to break wireless for me. Sucky. [05:18] Xuzz, good question :( [05:18] * Gnurdux is having Maverick upgrade issues :( [05:18] Did they ever fix the thing in 10.10 that broke wine ? [05:18] the new fglrx seems to have massive bugs [05:18] TurinTurambar, that google link tells you exactly what needs to be in there, other than domain and username the defaults are usually okay [05:18] do i need to do a freash install for 10.10? could somethign ahve been corrupted making it not go to the desktop? No keys/clicks work [05:18] voss749: I am able to play games with Steam on Wine, if that helps. [05:19] ....well this is interesting, i clicked logon with my finger not the mouse....and it went in -- disregard, thanks guys [05:19] Xuzz: right click the panel and add Indicator Applet Session [05:19] <_pg_> mounting on dev failed, no such device. wtf is that about if it boots anyway? [05:19] Oh, that reminds me, how will I know when Nvidia releases a new proprietary driver? [05:19] hmm. my pure-ftpd won't follow symbolic links even when i turn off the chroot option.. [05:19] Mathuin, They did some security change in 10.10 that broke WOW on wine, there was a fix but Im not sure if they fixed the problem itself [05:19] WFeather, well that is why I asked if there were users on the machine first because there are gnome directories and those settings can be corrupted or in my case I noticed that it seemed they were incompatible with the new version somehow [05:20] Any ideas what channel I should use to ask about the GUI applets and configuration windows? I'm in Ubuntu 10.04. ifconfig and iwconfig work, but neither nm-applet nor nm-connection-editor show interfaces for wired or wireless. [05:20] voss749: I read about that, but I don't think the fix is completely in. Have you tried using Wine1.3 or asking in #winehq ? [05:20] I also can't downgrade 'cause it seems to be incompatible with the new X [05:20] okay checking the link now.. was hoping to avoid opening another program since my computer is a tad slow [05:20] !panels | jguy [05:20] jguy: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » [05:20] Where can I get the ChangeLog or something similar for 10.10 ? And the Bugs too ? [05:20] o ya rifter there are --- [05:20] jguy: I did this *exact same thing* and it reset all my panels to scratch which was exactly what I needed. [05:20] Gnurdux, massive bugs in fglrx? like what? [05:20] ubottu, I reset the panels, to no avail. [05:20] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [05:20] Procule: Search the web for 'maverick release notes' ? [05:20] Dandel, my OpenCL code now segfaults when it tries to get OpenGL buffers [05:20] !puregnome [05:20] If you want to remove all !Kubuntu packages or !Xubuntu packages and have a default !Ubuntu system, follow the instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureGnome [05:20] mathuin, Its not a wine problem its a problem with the security change they did in 10.10 itself [05:20] performance seems to have been raped [05:20] WFeather, well try creating a new user and see if that user is okay [05:21] actually one more quick question, is there a quick guide on how to setup the desktop to look like the netbook one at times and at others not?(its a 12.1 " screen) [05:21] and ET-XreaL now displays a blank screen [05:21] with the 10.10 release? [05:21] Mathuin, good point [05:21] voss749: oh, the debugger thing? Hrm. [05:21] anyone else having a problem with themes on Maverick? works fine on my laptop, but on my desktop it's not drawing panels and some windows properly, falling back to the default GTK theme [05:21] upgrade to maverick was peach [05:21] WFeather, the .gconf* , .gnome2*, and .gstreamer* directories may be implicates but .gnome2 is usually all you need to move [05:21] err, nevermind, it magically fixed itself o_O [05:21] Does anyone know how to make my windows partition accessible only with root user? [05:21] IdleOne: thanks, that is completely horribly named [05:21] I hope the %%$/"/!"? iowait issue is fixed [05:21] now is there a way to get unity interface for desktop edition ? [05:21] WFeather, they are recreated on login [05:22] Xuzz: agreed [05:22] whats special about a file that begins with . and ends with rc? [05:22] <_pg_> is there a "reset everything to defaults" option? my ubuntu is effed up beyond my repair abilities every 3 mos or so [05:22] <_pg_>  [05:22] Yo guys, I'm trying to install 64-bit Maverick and the installer keeps crashing... "An attempt to configure apt to install additional packages from the CD failed." I'm installing from a USB drive. [05:22] Never mind ... it would appear that it is in /var/lib/samba [05:22] Hello, I'm running Xubuntu and I purged gnome-power-manager and now my battery won't charge [05:22] The ptrace issue they did in 10.10 [05:22] thanks rifter, in now === cdbob_ is now known as cdbob [05:22] Andorin: try another USB stick. I had the same problem with netbook edition and that fixed it. [05:22] 2.350 ratio [05:22] Dandel, yeah [05:22] i think it's the fglrx upgrade though [05:22] Mathuin: Ok, thanks [05:22] Andorin, you may have corrupted files/image you might try recreating the install media [05:22] voss749: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24193 -- this is your bug? [05:22] is there a quick guide on how to setup the desktop to look like the netbook one at times and at others not?(its a 12.1 " screen) [05:23] krewton: That's a really good question. I'd like to hear an answer to that too. [05:24] Hello, Ctrl+Alt+D is not working anymore in Ubuntu 10.10. How can I enable this shortcut again? [05:24] Procule, iowaits are my bane too..a couple of places that can cause grief there is the chipset drivers and ... I forget what the second thing was I was gonna mention but ram size and therefore swap usage can lead to iowaits [05:24] shig: there's a Keyboard Shortcuts thing under Applications on UNE, it's in the same place as 10.04 on normal. [05:24] why `Cannot open mailbox /var/mail/juk: Permission denied` when I chmoded and chowned it with myself [05:24] Mathuin, ubottu: I'm not seeing #panels. I tried resetting the panels via the command you mentioned, but it didn't show the icons. I also don't see any entries in System->Preferences->Network Connections [05:24] Procule, also the ntfs drivers .. well .. accessing an ntfs drive can be slower and use cpu and cause iowaits [05:24] Okay thanks guys. Hopefully this will keep working unlike Empathy. [05:24] mathuin, yeah [05:25] shig: I configured the keyboard shortcuts with the super button( win key in my laptop) it works like charm [05:25] voss749: if that bug describes your issue, it is claimed to have been fixed in 1.3.4 which is the latest on the 1.3 version on the PPA. I'm running it on 10.10 desktop right now and it's fine. [05:25] <_pg_> mounting on dev failed, no such device; but it boots anyway? [05:25] hi all [05:25] Anyone ? is there a way to unity interface for ubuntu 10.10 desktop edition? [05:25] can someone tell me where the sounds for the default ubuntu theme are? [05:25] Mathuin, thanks! [05:25] Procule, if you use top and then add nfault to the columns and sort by that the number there can give an idea of applications that might be thrashing swap [05:25] rifter: here it's infernal. Everytime I do things requiring disk access, the iowait goes to 100%. I have to reboot 2 or 3 times a day. [05:26] Lancelot: /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/ [05:26] netcitizen, whoa, it seems they changed to Super+D as default... good to know, thanks! [05:26] Procule, well rather than reboot do the top thing and see what is doing it === joseph is now known as Guest95277 [05:26] rifter, yeah it seems to be related to swap. It is usually firefox or VLC. I use iotop [05:26] The unity interface seems like very nice for tablets but for netbooks its a solution in search of a problem. [05:26] thanks juk [05:26] Procule, oh it's nFLT sorry and yeah I usually just kill those [05:26] Lancelot: is it? [05:27] voss749: I am slowly getting used to unity on my EeePC. It's a little awkward but I have lots of real estate and I like that. [05:27] Hello, I'm running Xubuntu and I purged gnome-power-manager and now my battery won't charge. Was hoping that xfce4-power-manager would work. Also reinstalled gnome-power-manager and it still will not charge. === sora_h is now known as sorah_off [05:27] Procule, firefox seems to swap out completely frequently and then not wake up well [05:27] voss749, is there a way for me to put the unity interface on a regular 10.10 install ? [05:27] juk: looks like it. I keep getting this loud buzz when I shutdown [05:27] Procule, in my case.. I dunno if it will be different here yet because i haven't had my new install running yet long enough [05:27] wfeather, I dunno [05:27] juk: I'm thinking the sound file is damaged [05:27] PING [05:27] shig: i din know that. but i had configured that way on lucid [05:27] Lancelot: like beeep? [05:28] juk: no, a loud short buzz [05:28] Procule, rebooting is unnecessary if you can get to a terminal and kill firefox, etc [05:28] rifter, I wonder if I would be able to upgrade with the Update Manager. I'm afraid it will freeze [05:28] to anyone, is there a way to put Unity interface on a regular instal instead of a netbook one? [05:28] 10.10 is what 10.04 should have been [05:28] does anyone know how to get globalmenu (either the new unity one, or the old gnome-globaalmenu one) working in maverick (the new one only shows me one option "File" and inside "File" the only thing there is "Close") [05:28] I would really want to try unity interface on maverick desktop [05:28] Procule, but yeah in the past I sometimes could not do it fast enough.. in bad iowait situations it takes several tries because the keyboard gets knocked off [05:28] Procule, i just did and it went fine [05:28] <_pg_> why cant i see any wireless networks [05:28] hi do you know of an pdfmaker printer available in dpkg installfor lucid [05:28] there so many bugs in 10.04... It really a bad LTS [05:28] Procule I just keep hitting alt-f2 like a madman [05:29] can an unpriv'd user run sshd? [05:29] whats the big deal with maverick, did it this morning, I'm still looking for any discernable difference [05:29] Iron_Chef: Depends. [05:29] oh moc Irun this fo r2 days [05:29] rifter, even if I kill the processes, after some times, it progressively become a problem in less time [05:29] Procule, what I mean by fast enough was fast enough for my impatient taste :D [05:29] Iron_Chef: Unprivileged users can't bind to TCP ports < 1024 [05:29] phil_in_london: there's a huge difference in the netbook edition, not as much in desktop as far as I can see. [05:29] Lancelot: hmm, we probably need to fix that. Please see my original post @ https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-discuss/2009-May/008239.html [05:29] <_pg_> wicd cant find any wireless please help [05:29] Procule, yeah [05:29] <^DEMOSS^> help me plz - how i can share folder @/var/share@ with user "SHARE" and password "SHARE" ???? [05:29] phil_in_london: Didn't you get a sharper font set? [05:29] rifter, hahahha I do that tooo [05:29] KB1JWQ: Ah [05:29] Procule, I really think it's a problem with those apps [05:30] Lancelot: i.e., file a bug, but change the release number as appropriate, please [9.10 -> 10.10] [05:30] Mathuin, thats good for those people...there did seem to be lots of help necessary for netbooks before. [05:30] Procule, sadly ssh into the box is also affected by iowaits [05:30] chu, not that I can see, but my system is theme'd, and it stayed put perfectly during the upgrade. [05:30] sadly 10.10 still have broken language switcher key [05:30] phil_in_london: to be honest, I'm very likely to retire this thing the moment I can afford an Android tablet. :-) [05:30] <_pg_> wicd help anyone? cant see any networks...could 5 mins ago [05:30] crimsun: do you work with the ALSA team? [05:30] The Unity interface is radically new. Its excellent for touchscreens. As for conventional netbooks im not sold on it [05:30] <^DEMOSS^> help me plz - how i can share folder @/var/share@ with user "SHARE" and password "SHARE" ???? [05:30] Lancelot: yes. [05:30] Mathuin, hmm, Android...wait while I wipe off my chin :) [05:30] voss749: it's a lot easier to slide that little thing on the left if I could touch it, I bet. === sorah_off is now known as sora_h [05:31] Hi guys, i'm trying to install the new ubuntu. But i'm running into a problem. I usually just create a unallocated empty space. and Choose "largest continuous free space". But that option is not there anymore. What should i do? [05:31] crimsun: brilliant, is crimsun the username you use on the ubuntu forums? [05:31] Lancelot: yes, and on LP and elsewhere, generally. [05:31] ^DEMOSS^, under what kind of sharing [05:31] also, the alt-tab window selection bug is fixed in 10.10 !! [05:31] lp me? [05:31] ^DEMOSS^, samba or what [05:31] Lancelot: please note that I do not read the forums frequently. [05:31] <^DEMOSS^> yes [05:31] can anybody help me? [05:31] crimsun: okay...so how exactly do I file the bug on this page? [05:31] [Maverick] '~$ man tracker; No manual entry for tracker'. How to obtain a manula for Tracker? [05:31] Does 10.10 have LVM support at the installation or I have to use the alternate CD ? [05:31] mathui, I wonder if we are going to see a unity interface for smartphones. An ubuntu-phone so to speak. [05:32] <^DEMOSS^> samba/smbfs rifter [05:32] Hello, I'm running Xubuntu and I purged gnome-power-manager and now my battery won't charge. Was hoping that xfce4-power-manager would work. Also reinstalled gnome-power-manager and it still will not charge. [05:32] Lancelot: the URL that I provided explains a bit of the background and includes instructions. [05:32] Lancelot: briefly, you'll run the "ubuntu-bug alsa-base" command in a Terminal/Konsole [05:32] ^DEMOSS^, it's been awhile for me but there is also a #samba and a #samba-technical here [05:32] is the ubuntu cd usable even if its support has ended? [05:32] [Maverick] '~$ man tracker; No manual entry for tracker'. How to obtain a manual for Tracker? [05:32] crimsun: I see, well I'll try getting in there then. I actually commented out that line in alsa-config while trying to get my laptop's sub to work [05:32] ^DEMOSS^, when I was doing it there is a samba conf file that has the shares in it [05:32] cpantinople: Sure, though I do believe it's "not recommended" [05:33] on 10.10, clipboard icon disappears on me for some reason. spaced as if its still there in the tray, but no icon, just the blue background of the taskbar itself [05:33] pls help me [05:33] any ideas what the issue might be? [05:33] root@Basic2:~# do-release-upgrade [05:33] Anyone now how to get the numberpad on a HP Pavilion dv9000 to work? Mine just doesn't seem to work no matter what i do. [05:33] it's going [05:33] ^DEMOSS^, and smbpasswd for the users but you are wanting to creat a simple passworded share [05:33] bullgard4: I'm pretty sure you want to see the other man pages, e.g., trackerd, tracker-applet [05:33] even if I close it out and restart it, the space shows back up but the icon itself never does [05:33] Hi guys, i'm trying to install the new ubuntu. But i'm running into a problem. I usually just create a unallocated empty space. and Choose "largest continuous free space". But that option is not there anymore. What should i do? [05:34] it looks just like a blank spacer, just the color of the taskbar's background [05:34] crimsun: Ah! Thank you very much for your help. [05:34] churl, I don't think battery charging has anything to do with your power manager [05:34] bullgard4: yw [05:34] churl, that is just to set sleep settings and display of battery and the like [05:34] hi guys [05:34] how to enable Infrared in ubuntu [05:35] <^DEMOSS^> i do that 2 weak ago [05:35] churl, although.. it could be lying to you.. that would be the power manager after all. You might check your laptop's onboard indicators to make sure the power is going through and the battery is accepting charge [05:35] <^DEMOSS^> then i delete stuped ubuntu and install debian - and do not remember link or man [05:35] ubuntu 10.10 starts up hella fast now <.< [05:35] Is there a place on Ubuntu's website where I could find the checksums for the various .isos of Maverick to compare to the .iso I'm trying to install from? (I'd also need to know how to get the hash of my .iso...) [05:36] <^Mike\b> How can I adjust the size of thumbnails for my video and image files? [05:36] !md5sum | Andorin [05:36] Andorin: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [05:36] rifter: (new computer) the batter light is not lit, i guess that means no active power [05:36] Mathuin: Thanks again [05:36] churl, yeah so could be power supply issue [05:36] in #postfix they all sleep [05:36] Andorin: keep asking the easy ones. :-) [05:36] can anyone help me here [05:37] churl, I'd blame that first if your power is not lit [05:37] Mathuin: Blast, the Maverick hashes aren't listed here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes [05:37] if you shut down the laptop then you can be sure the os is not interfering there [05:37] churl if you shut down the laptop then you can be sure the os is not interfering there [05:37] rifter: um yeah, nm some how the charger came out from the ac box..... [05:37] crimsun: I'll file that bug later [05:37] churl, k [05:37] !ask | juk [05:37] juk: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [05:38] i swear i have NO idea HOW that could have happened, my legs arn't even on the ground...... [05:38] churl, it's funny when you do a change and then a problem happens and it turns out to be completely unrelated === radgyrst is now known as dfkldflafeeeeeee [05:38] Mathuin: But I'm not getting that installer crash at the moment, so it may not be necessary to run checksum comparisons just yet. [05:38] Andorin: someone else saw them earlier, let me see if I can find them. [05:38] sweetpi: yeah most likely, also mostlikely I figure it out by myself [05:38] Does remote desktop work on 10.10? I'm having issues with the built in version. It says connections can only happen from localhost [05:39] How much swap space do i need for a 500GB HDD, and 4GB RAM? [05:39] churl, yeah it just happens, and sometimes it isn't visibly disconnected but reseating helps for various reasons .. maybe you have cats or gremlins :D [05:39] crimsun: I'm currently using Karmic, does anything in Maverick fix this problem? [05:39] Tashia, haven't used that but sounds like a security setting [05:39] So i guess there is no way to get unity interface on the desktop edition [05:40] Lancelot: ah! Well, we've done quite a bit of work in that regard, so yes, 10.10 should be better. [05:40] rifter: more than once I have diagnosed a cable failure by finding my cat having chewed through it. [05:40] Tashia: that means you can only connect to it from your computer [05:40] other people can't [05:40] so you'll have to change a setting somewhere [05:40] rifter: thanks:) [05:40] I'd like to be able to connect to it remotly though [05:40] Tashia, I just checked preferences.. I bet it is actually a firewall setting or something [05:40] Hi I just upgraded to ubunt 10.04 and my wifi stopped working [05:40] Where can i find source .deb packages for 10.10? [05:40] it has a "soft block" on it [05:40] any ideas? [05:41] Mathuin: funny [05:41] Mathuin, yeah my cats like unplugging things on top of that.. I finally had to tape the power adapter to my router to the power strip to prevent it [05:41] orlok: there are no "source .deb" packages; you'll want to see either the source bzr branches or the source packages in the pool. === Yusuke is now known as Romance [05:42] crimsun: I'm still reluctant to upgrade, but that's mostly because I hate the purple thele :p [05:42] theme* [05:42] What was scary was when she was chewing through 120V power cables. I painted those with sour apple to deter it but apparently she didn't care, or didn't mind the taste. Had to shield them in plastic to get her to stop. :-( [05:42] crimsun: ok, just need a URl, cant find it in the sources directory in http://ftp.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/ === cdbob_ is now known as cdbob [05:42] Lancelot: you aren't required to use that purple theme ;) [05:42] orlok: /ubuntu/pool/$foo/$source_package_name/ [05:42] still funny Mathuin [05:43] Lancelot: i changed it to a nice starfield picture i took, looks nice.. i was actually getting comments in the office about the nasty orange blobs [05:43] can you set it to use the good ol' tan bootscreen? [05:43] or the karmic one? [05:43] orlok: if you have deb-src lines in /etc/apt/sources.d*/*, you can just `apt-get source $foo' [05:43] All fun and games until the cat bursts into flame. [05:43] or you chuck it on the barbeque :) [05:43] you gotta burn the hair off somehow before you eat it :) [05:44] deryl: nah, she's never been that bad a cat. [05:44] * sweetpi uses telepathy and suggests juk edit master.cf [05:44] mathuin ~ hehe [05:44] i like izinucs's idea better ;0 [05:44] rifter, about the iowait, can it be filesystem related ? [05:44] wow, the best thing in 10.10 so far, gcc actually came with default [05:45] Mathuin, they are supposed to hate citrus stuff too and there is cat repellant but both have mixed results [05:45] crimsun: cheers.. gotta patch and recompile expect of all things :-\ [05:45] you used to have to install gentoo if you want gcc to come with the distribution by default [05:45] orlok: why do you need to recompile expect in 10.10? [05:45] crimsun: its causing a cisco config utility to hang due to blocking IO [05:46] Procule, well itcan but if you are having high nFLT then it is usually swap.. check ram usage to see if it is bad.. these days browsers seem to use ridiculous amounts of ram at least firefox chromium and chrome do for me [05:46] rifter: the approach that's working lately is to pay attention to her when she acts up. I guess it's like having kids. [05:46] Anyone have an issue in KDE under 10.10 where the clipboard icon disappears completely but the space it normally occupies is still there? Put your mouse over the blank spot and knotes shows its popup [05:46] orlok: hmm, presuming a patch is available, please file a bug so we can fix that. [05:46] but the icon never appears [05:46] Wow, out of the box Flash works on 64-bit and on netbook. Nice. [05:47] Mathuin, it is indeed. I have a cat that acts up to get attention.. I am trying to train him that this is not how to get what he wants because I have a theory on that.. seems to be making progress but he still does it [05:47] For a partition different for / and /home, how big should the / be ? And will the .firefox and all follow on the 10.10 ? [05:47] crimsun: http://www.shrubbery.net/rancid , and the patch creators describe is as a nasty hack [05:47] rifter ~ cats are picky. they take time to train [05:47] deryl, yep [05:47] my aunt raises pedigree burmese. pita to teach them anything [05:47] you guys, you are not training the cat, the cats training you [05:47] so just relax and get used to it [05:47] is there a list of the major changes in the latest Ubuntu update? [05:47] orlok ~ hehe now THAT i believe [05:47] frankbro: / between 8 & 12 gigs... the rest for /home [05:47] frankbro, well /home you want as big as the files you wanna store there. [05:47] installer hung at "Who are you?" screen, message "Ready when you are" but Forward button greyed out (all fields filled in properly) - what gives? [05:47] peepsalot: search the web for 'maverick release notes'. [05:48] my $HOME is 80GB [05:48] well /home is [05:48] frankbro, otehrwise what iznucs said [05:48] deryl, mine is more like 800 GB :D [05:48] I've got about 7G for /, 1G for swap, and 30G for /home -- but I have two SSDs, one 8G and one 30G, so YMMV. [05:48] and lets say I have a firefox profile in .firefox, will the firefox in the new install take it in consideration ? And use the bookmark/addons I had ? [05:48] rifter ~ i've only a 250GB 5400RPM drive. split evenly between windows (ok so i still like to game), and ubuntu [05:48] (this is 10.10 32-bit on a Asus 1201n netbook) [05:49] frankbro, what I do is set the normal system partitoons then give home the rest. you may want a seperate var but if you do make it big cause4 ubuntu puts downloaded packages there [05:49] frankbro: you can try.. some add ons to FF might not work.. [05:49] yeah /var/cache/apt/archives can get HIGE [05:49] err HUGE. my last size check was 12GB [05:49] deryl, yeah .. I am having good luck with wine but some games still work better with windows.. for instance punkbuster stuff :P [05:49] then again I don't run apt-get autoclean often [05:50] Has anyone had issues with keyboards working in Virtualbox? [05:50] rifter ~ yeah. I don't like wine when I have a legal and working copy of Windows 7 as well. (This laptop is still under warranty). so I just split the drive. [05:50] where do I change mailbox dir in postfix? [05:50] deryl: I only run apt-get autoclean when it tells me to. [05:50] rifter ~ when I get bug eyed from ruby and rails, i reboot to windows and take it out on someone's ass :) [05:50] deryl, me neither.. my var is 10GB but on anotehr machine I had to symlink that directory to somewhere bigger [05:50] Muscovy: nope [05:50] I have a laptop with a bad cmos battery that loses the system time regularly...what can I do to remove the filesystem check for a previous mount time in the future? [05:51] crimsun: actually it isn't the speakers popping, it's literally a loud buzz [05:51] !language | deryl [05:51] deryl: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [05:51] anybody else had issues installing 10.10 release on a netbook? [05:51] crimsun: is it being caused by this? [05:51] rymo: the only issues I had were due to a faulty USB stick. [05:51] idleone ~ sorry. I'm a grunt. i tend to forget and swear. my apologies [05:51] I am having problems with my wifi after updating to 10.02, I already have it to the point that there is no "soft-block" nor hard-block [05:51] fqdn [05:51] Mathuin: what sort of issues did you enounter with that? [05:51] I brough ifconfig down and up [05:51] izinucs: I'll chalk it down to bad luck, it worked after a reboot of the VM. [05:51] !wine [05:51] deryl, thank you for your service then [05:51] WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu [05:52] but it still says wifi disabled [05:52] any help pretty please [05:52] rifter ~ ehh, its my job. just like some folks are mechanics, others florists. I'm a soldier. it's what i do. [05:52] rymo: "errno 5" while copying files to the netbook. [05:52] rifter ~ but.. you're welcome [05:52] totic, madwifi is the system we use for wifi so you may get some help looking in that direction.. [05:53] hrmm thats weird. my clipboard icon returned out of the blue [05:53] Why is my NetworkManager icon missing? [05:53] hehe been gone for hours and then just suddenly decided to reappear. [05:54] rifter ~ you gimme back my icon? ;) [05:54] Maybe I should reboot [05:54] it seems like the installer is just buggy. did they rush this thing out today or what? [05:54] Hi. I'm trying to find a way to implement the -K flag for pure-ftpd but I don't see what it would be in the config file (to make the file name..) [05:54] rymo: keyboard layoutbug [05:54] hello [05:54] Is there a much performant way to split and assemble files besides using split and cat? [05:54] uLinux: can I pick a different layout or plug in an external keyboard to get around this? [05:55] khussein: I imagine you could do that with a one-line Perl script. [05:55] deryl, maybe it was taking awhile to load? I missed your initial question on that [05:55] rymo ~ so long as you have debsigs-verify and blcr-dkms uninstalled it should work just fine. I had no issues other than man-db, ure, postgresql-common, and sun-jdk packages failing. but those were easy to fix [05:55] @rifter thanks, but what do you mean by "madwifi"? [05:55] rymo: How much RAM do you have? [05:55] Mathuin: would you mind sharing that with me? And is it faster? [05:55] rymo: i dunno i just said there is abug when selection keyboard layout [05:55] totic, madwifi is a package that includes the wifi drivers and tools for managing wifi [05:55] rifter ~ oh. it disappeared on me, left the blank spot like a spacer but the same color as the bacground of the taskbar. put the mouse over the spot and the clipboard popup would show but the main icon was gone [05:55] totic, those commands can help you troubleshoot [05:56] khussein: I don't have it on hand, but it can be written. I suspect it will probably be at least as fast. [05:56] cant get my audio to work.i tried system testing to no avail.. === sora_h is now known as sorah_off [05:56] how do I make irssi show here my fqdn instead of ip? [05:56] Mathuin, well wouldn't the perl script depend on the type of file? like it would be better with text [05:56] rifter ~ then just now out of the blue 9oh i'd say 45 minutes later) it showed back up. weird stuff [05:56] rifter: sure, but if he's using split he's using text I'm thinking. [05:57] deryl, yeah I run into that with apps in the notification area from time to time [05:57] No, it is binary. [05:57] Mathuin, ah [05:57] You can use split with binary files too. [05:57] @rifter so nothing is block the card, the drivers are "fine" but still no wifi [05:57] rifter ~ yeah. not sure what the issue is, but i've a far bigger issue to rigure out that I just have no clue wth to do anything about [05:57] khussein, well it may be trickier but I think perl might do that too [05:58] rifter: Mathuin Thanks guys. [05:58] khussein: I've never used split with binary files. Nice to know. [05:58] khussein: With the exception of features in btrfs, which if you're using you probably wouldn't need to split files anyway, I don't think there's any way to improve on split and cat. [05:58] rifter ~ i have an ati radeon card in this laptop. for some reason kdm doesn't completely reset X when you log out and it corrupts my video. works perfect under gdm, just not kdm. did it under 10.04 too [05:59] is there an easy way to batch convert a lot of .pdf's to jpg's using free software? [05:59] found it ... KeepAllFiles [05:59] khussein, there seems to be an lxsplit thing too [05:59] brb [05:59] Jordan_U: it has 2GB - runs fine if I do the "Try without installing" option, and it doesn't lock up hard, just that damn button never unlocks [05:59] rifter ~ hehe solve that one, you come to Port Elgin Ontario canada, i'll get you drunk and buy you lunch :) [05:59] I am getting an error when I try to boot a my fresh install of manic...Error: No such device [05:59] deryl, oh I haven't been to that part of canada yet I would like to sometime [06:00] rymo: Can you run the integrity check on the CD / flash drive? [06:00] "Ready when you are" is a lie! [06:00] rifter ~ hehe. I'm slightly north by northwest from TO :) [06:00] Saugeen Shores [06:00] rymo, if you ask nicely they may refund the money you paid for Ubuntu [06:00] ha! yes, give me my $0 back! :) [06:00] Jordan_U: No, I am not using btrfs. I guess split and cat it is :). [06:01] any help? [06:01] I feel bad because I finally got my friend to try Ubuntu and this has been his welcome to it :/ frustrated. [06:01] Jordan_U: i'll try that integrity check (yn) [06:01] Hello [06:01] rifter ~ but to add to the mix.. I'm using the fglrx kernel module for the ati cards. I'm getting a sneaking suspicion that what happens is gdm FULLY resets the X server as in completely kills itself and X and then restarts itself so it fully resets the card. I'm thinking kdm doesn't [06:01] rymo, i feel you... that can also be true with Windows though.... I had a mouse driver installation crash within 30 minutes of installing Windows 7 once [06:02] Guys, how do i install Ubuntu Netbook Remix on a flash drive? === cdbob_ is now known as cdbob [06:02] rifter ~ i can't prove it beyond the differences in how gdm and kdm reset, but thats my suspicion from watching the screen and how the system reacts [06:02] spvensko_: wait, you let a friend try Windows 7? ;) [06:02] XaeroX: if you have Ubuntu at all, use Startup Disk Creator to install the ISO on the flash drive, then boot on it. [06:02] for some reason when i installed ubuntu from the disc, my desktop stopped POSTing (couldn't even get into bios). I narrowed it down to the disk that GRUB was installed to, and unplugged it. I got into the bios, and switched hard drives from AHCI to IDE, and then the system booted completely. What can I do to make it work with AHCI again? [06:02] rymo, gotta play my videogames somehow :) [06:03] I was wondering if I could get some newbie help with an audio issue in Ubuntu 10.10 please? [06:03] Error: No such device [06:03] Mathuin but every time i boot from the flash drive i have right now, it starts a new session [06:03] XaeroX: so do you wish to install UNE *from* that flash drive, or run it off that flash drive? [06:03] I want to install UNE to run off the flash drive [06:03] @rifter any other pointer would be appreciated, everything says it should be working [06:04] SeymourBewty, ask your question, don't ask to ask :) [06:04] @rifter tell me what I should copy to pastbin and I will [06:04] Jordan_U: where is the integrity check on 10.10? I don't see the familiar black screen with the options, just the new graphical thing [06:04] XaeroX: so use the Startup Disk Creator, make sure you have space to save documents, and that should work. What do you mean by 'start a new session'? [06:05] ah, F12 [06:05] Mathuin: It erases all prev settings. Like, booting from live [06:05] I have a CM6501 onboard audio hooked up via Digital optical, and a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10. I'm not getting any sound at the moment. Any help would be appreciated, thanks. [06:05] How do I fix "Error: No such device" on boot? [06:05] Mathuin i have a 1GB Flash drive, would it work? [06:05] rymo: During the first 5 seconds of boot you should see a a screen like this: http://jordanu.dyndns.org/tmp/Screenshot-1.png Press any key while that screen is up to get the menu. [06:06] XaeroX: yes, it should. [06:06] Eventus: Do you have more than one hard drive? [06:06] yes [06:06] Jordan_U: got to the screen, but no option for Integrity, only test memory. this is on a usb stick if it matters... [06:06] Mathuin so how do i do that from Windows? [06:06] test [06:06] XaeroX: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick has WIndows instructions. [06:06] Eventus: Try changing the boot order so you're booting from the other drive. It's likely that the failing grub is actually from a previous install. [06:06] astracepot test reply: Success [06:07] @Jordan_U: I've tried that already. Same problem [06:08] hello all [06:08] oh Mathuin i tried that utility, i had no success [06:08] the new ubuntu is great :) works without a problem [06:08] yup its true bro [06:08] Eventus: Can you run boot info script as explained here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and pastebin the RESULTS.txt ? [06:08] XaeroX: bummer. I don't have a Windows box here to test it. :-( [06:09] ok, 1am, time to make some bacon and eggs and coffee and start working on this app [06:09] I guess there is no Integrity Check option for USB install? [06:09] @rifter "nm-tool" says now that the network card is sleeping [06:09] Mathuin any other way to do that? [06:09] I really like the way it looks, and it seemed to find drivers for everything except for my onboard audio. [06:09] i must be blind cause i don't see rifter saying a thing anymore [06:09] rymo: It seems that way unfortunately. [06:09] upgrade question, I have karmic, and I'm trying to upgrade to maverick. It's making me get lucid first though [06:09] why is this? [06:10] lancelot ~ because the system is designed that way [06:10] !upgrade | Lancelot [06:10] Lancelot: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [06:10] lancelot ~ the ubuntu site SPECIFICALLY tells you to upgrade through major revisions [06:10] Lancelot: system designed to do step by step upgrades [06:10] ah [06:10] I see that now [06:10] the page wasn't loading properly for me when I looked [06:10] Jordan_U: thanks for your help! I'm going to get an external drive and try a CD. [06:10] which is why I cane here :/ [06:11] too bad I have to go get tetravex again though D: [06:11] rymo: You might want to try the alternate install CD also. === Andorin is now known as AK|offline [06:11] !alternate | rymo [06:11] rymo: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download#alternate - See also !minimal [06:11] thanks [06:11] thanks again! [06:11] rymo: You're welcome. [06:11] Dinner. [06:12] @Jordan_U: I ran it. How do I give you the results other than just pasting the whole thing in here?

[06:12] lol [06:12] I'm having trouble getting audio from my onboard C-media CM6501 audio in Ubuntu 10.10. Does anyone have any experience with this? [06:12] wow this channel is far far far more busy than ours on efnet [06:12] sheesh [06:13] can barely keep up with the chatter! [06:13] @rifter got it working… had to set it in sleep mode and bring it back up [06:13] Anyone see a problem where a laptop synaptics touchpad shows up as a generic ps/2 wheel mouse? It's here and there on the forums but no fix to be found :/ [06:13] hrmm ok now why the hell does the taskbar keep dying and resetting itself [06:14] Jordan_U: Ok. http://paste.ubuntu.com/510646/ [06:15] now that is positively weird! My taskbar just keeps dying every so often out of the blue.. takes about a moinute and then reappears. [06:15] has there been any booting/GRUB problems after upgrading to 10.10? [06:15] Anyone know how to make irssi not show join/parts? [06:16] nwg: /ignore #ubuntu joins parts quits .. then /save [06:16] anyone here downloaded 10.10? [06:16] * izinucs bangs forehead on table [06:16] uhhhh major release day and you want to know if its been downloaded? [06:16] hi folks, i hope you're all doing well. I have a really unusual problem... My system monitor is showing CPU 1 at 50% usage and CPU2 and 100% usage.. I'm just running pidgin and system monitoring... what is consuming my processors??? [06:16] i did, now im stuck in grub rescue [06:17] Oh wait today was 10.10 release? [06:17] also note, I have a relatively fresh install of 10.04 [06:17] izinucs ~ bang one more time for me. [06:17] xaerox ~ hah! [06:17] ABGD: in system monitor check the view settings and make sure it says all [06:17] Hahah i just got it :D 10/10/10 Ubuntu 10.10 Comes out [06:17] sco: Can you run boot info script as explained here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and pastebin the RESULTS.txt ? [06:17] believe newbies got to stay with 10.04 [06:17] xaerox ~ i so want to choke you :) [06:18] izinucs: it does say all [06:18] deryl likewise :) [06:18] i bairly understood that, but im going to the link [06:18] It shows CPU2 at 98-100% consistently.. and CPU1 at 60-75% consistently [06:18] Eventus: Make sure that you're booting from sdb rather than sda, then run "ls" and "set" at the grub shell. [06:19] xaerox ~ [06:19] ABGD: you could try top from the terminal [06:19] Eventus: What is the value of $prefix (which will be listed by "set") and is the device in $prefix listed by ls? [06:19] izinucs: can i show you the results? [06:19] anyone here know how you can increase mouse sensitivity [06:19] mouse pad [06:20] @izinucs: thanks. now I can keep up with the chatter ^_^ [06:20] ABGD: if you'd like.. you'll have to pastebin them [06:20] izinucs: [06:20] Jordan_U: Does $prefix need to be entered at grub rescue>? [06:20] izinucs: http://imgur.com/Q1PVk.png [06:21] nwg: it really tough watching those [06:21] hi [06:21] izinucs: what is that item "backend" consuming 88%? [06:21] hi [06:21] good morning, upon boot of my new 10.10 installation, i saw 3 errors regarding "modprobe" issues, how do I view them, and then SQUASH them? [06:21] ABGD: no idea unless it's auto updates.. did you just install? have you done all the updates yet? [06:22] izinucs: yup i have all updates completed [06:22] Eventus: No, you need to run "set" at the rescue prompt, to list the value of $prefix. [06:22] hi [06:22] izinucs: i just did a google search its coming out to something about printers... i remember tryying to configure my printer and it didn't work.. could that be it? [06:22] ABGD: then I'm lost.. maybe someone else will be able to answer that one. [06:22] Ok. I'll try that === BEIITA is now known as RickiiBEAT === cdbob_ is now known as cdbob [06:23] ABGD: perhaps.. [06:23] Is it possible to change the default for the session type that is selected in the login menu? For example if the default is desktop and I have the choice between UNR, desktop, terminal, or safe mode, can I set the default to be terminal? How? Thanks. [06:23] I'm not planning to install Ubuntu, but I want to help with the bittorrent swarm [06:23] which torrents do you think need more bandwidth? are we already at more 64-bit users than 32-bit users? [06:24] ok i killed it my processor usage went down [06:24] holy crap my battery is dead on laptop! It works 7 hours on windows 7, and died within 1 hour on new Ubuntu [06:24] PovAddict: get them both :) [06:24] Is anyone getting an authentication glitch when elevating privileges? You click "Authenticate", type in your password... and then nothing. The "authenticate" dialoge remains open and nothing happens unless you click the "X" button in the corner... then it proceeds to install. [06:24] izinucs: I won't get every single .iso.torrent available in the tracker ;) [06:24] Guys Ubuntu is killing the battery [06:24] what is the typical CPU consumption of Ubuntu with Gnome on a Dual Core 2.6Ghz system? [06:24] Hi can you guys read this? [06:24] yes putputt [06:24] Kevin1a: you need to adjust your runlevels. [06:24] PovAddict: just the two live desktop versions.. that's what most download [06:25] @izinucs: I guess its a good thing I got here after the swarm of people shouting !out-yet [06:25] woah it's saturating my download pipe [06:25] Kevin1a: in most distros, you can edit inittab and change it to a runlevel that doesn't spawn a display manager, not sure about Ubuntu, google ;) [06:25] I'm connected through a raw connection, no client [06:25] i'm connected thru a raw client, no connection :D [06:25] * ejv drumrolls [06:26] Yay, are we the only people acting as a client in this channel? [06:27] Jordan_U: (hd0,1)/boot/grub [06:27] so will canonical pay for a new hd since their latest release appears to be killing hds again? [06:27] killing hard drives? [06:27] windowshasyou, really? I was just about to upgrade.. 0_0 [06:28] ejv: thanks, I'll check google again. Actually I want to install UNR for the automatic window maximization and stuff like that, but I hate the unity interface, and want to boot into the default desktop automatically, I was just using the terminal as an example of one of the session options. [06:28] fishscene: yep [06:28] Eventus2: Then you are not booting from sdb, try removing sda if you need to to be sure you are booting from sdb. [06:28] @putputt: what exactly do you mean by "raw connection"? did you like manually open your own socket or something? [06:28] How does it kill hard drives? [06:28] i gotta admit i am liking this new ubuntu!!! [06:28] windowshasyou: depends if you paid for support [06:28] PhrostyB, what are you coming from? [06:28] mint [06:28] fishscene: talk to jschall in #linux. He installed the latest on his system, rebooted and discovered his hd no longer functioned. [06:28] My installation was fine. I'm just not getting any audio for some reason. I would appreciate some help with this matter. [06:29] windowshasyou: That doesn't mean Ubuntu killed his drive. [06:29] PhrostyB: agreed. [06:29] I'm only uploading at 9KB/s, weird [06:29] sorry, pidgin died [06:29] there has to be more users downloading [06:29] nautilus FINALLY got some pollish, FINALLY. [06:29] fishcooker: Its not the first report I've seen about banto 10 killing hds [06:29] been waiting like 2 years... lol [06:30] Jordan_U: i cant get into Win or Ubntu on my comp (im now on family comp) to download that [06:30] windowshasyou: How would it kill a hard drive? [06:30] banto? [06:30] fishscene: how did the default kernel for gutsy gibbon kill all those laptop hds? [06:30] windowshasyou: tell jschall to come here if he really cares [06:30] is there a way to toggle out of 'location mode' (Ctrl+L) in nautilus? [06:30] PovAddict: nah... hes being redirected to a real distro now [06:31] I don't even know what you're talking about. If you can't answer a question concerning the validity of your claims, then don't make them. [06:31] I see no point in going to #linux to hear him rant :P [06:31] @sin_tax: I think you just push [ctrl]+L again. [06:31] fishscene: hold on... since you are apparently too lazy to use that thing called google... [06:31] windowshasyou: what distro might that be [06:31] 4 hours wasted came down to this: Ubuntu requires the username be all lowercase [06:31] rymo: sounds like a bad windows habit ;) [06:32] yea, whats wrong with lowrcase usernames? [06:32] ejv: it does! but no indication this was what was preventing me from continuing a fresh 10.10 install [06:32] offtopic: is there a more elegant way, asking for the actual amount of minutes that passed since some point, other than "after how many minutes ..." ? [06:32] fishscene: here is one among many hundreds of articles on that... http://hardware.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/10/30/1742258 [06:32] i fully accept a lowercase username! I welcome it, in fact -- but nothing told me this was necessary [06:32] hi! do you know the right channel asking "how to fit gaussian distributions to multiple peaks?" :) [06:33] rymo: tip, if ever your having issue, drop to a fall back terminal (alt+ctrl+f1->f9) and you may get some hints ;) [06:33] naxa: #math? [06:33] i'm having troubles with the installer crashing at random places... it's probably not liking the amd 780xt chipset :/ [06:33] * deryl eats his bacon and eggs and watches the drama unfold [06:33] PovAddict, thanks, will try that [06:33] That's all I was asking for. Thanks. [06:33] there needs to be a red X or a note or something the instant I type that first capital letter, am I wrong to want that? [06:33] ejv: thanks for that, though I want to contribute to Ubuntu's goal of being friendly for The People, and that isn't so much [06:34] rymo: sometimes you gotta give a little to get a lot ;) [06:34] so somewhere I need to post my strong recommendation for an addition to the installer UI [06:34] rymo: great idea. please file a bug. ubuntu-bug ubiquity [06:34] maco: thanks [06:34] @rymo: Hearing that made me lol. I remember when I was first setting up my system and I wanted my username to be in caps, but I'm pretty sure the GUI told me it had to be in lowercase. And yeah, it was indeed an old Windoze habbit. [06:35] rymo: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs click the "report a bug" [06:35] windowshasyou: That article is 3 years old. yikes. [06:35] ejv: itll just take you to a "you're doin it wrong" wiki page which will tell you to do it the way i told rymo to [06:35] I accept some of the stupid-user blame on this, but in this case - leaving the Full Name blank took away the green check, but still allowed the install to proceed. so definitely a bug. [06:36] windowshasyou: the laptop mode stuff was fixed ages ago [06:36] after the upgrage to 10.10 [06:36] nwg, i remember seeing that too, did they forgot to add that in 10.10? [06:36] windowshasyou: and please dont call names because someone hasnt heard of a thing you did [06:36] (I mean, no-green-check not consistent in meaning) [06:36] maco: oh? *shrug* [06:36] maco: Apparently it hasn't been fixed. [06:36] Need help. Have a USB set up for Ubuntu 10.10 32-bit. When booting my netbook from USB it hangs at: [06:36] SYSLINUX 4.02 2010-07-21 EDD Copyright (C) 1994-2010 H.

[06:37] when i reboot i get error symbol grub_puts not found [06:37] err going [06:37] windowshasyou: what you said above doesnt make sense. the old bugs were about *over long term usage* not coincidences on first boot [06:37] hi, i'm getting an error when i try running apt-get build-dep mplayer. something about a certain file doesn't exist. can someone help? [06:37] maco: so far, in the last 2 hours, I've seen 5 or 6 cases either in irc or on forums where people have tried to install the latest, reboot, and discover their hd is no longer seen by the system. [06:37] or hangs on detection [06:37] evening everyone [06:38] windowshasyou: sounds more like a bug in the kernel's ability to detect hard drives then [06:38] windowshasyou: not a hardware failiure [06:38] *failure [06:38] maco: its not the kernel... its the motherboards [06:38] a2f, you better tell us exactly what's the output was [06:38] one moment [06:38] in each case, people have posted that they had to uplug their drives to get the bios to post. [06:38] windowshasyou: well tell them to file bugs [06:38] windowshasyou: happens sometimes when you have more than 1 drive.. installing grub to both drives usually fixes it. [06:38] windowshasyou ~ well for that.. I've got a channel with 140 regular users and as many drive-by users, and not a one has made that complaint. not a single one [06:39] tutuxg: E: Could not open file /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.canonical.com_ubuntu_dists_maverick_partner_source_Sources - open (2: No such file or directory) [06:39] windowshasyou: we have the same code as fedora, slackware, etc. so if kernels are magically letting the blue smoke out of motherboards, itll be happening on those too [06:39] when i reboot i get error symbol grub_puts not found [06:39] either under 10.04 nor 10.10 (so far) [06:39] thalib: Do you have more than one hard drive? [06:39] a2f, do a apt-get update and apt-get upgrade [06:39] i downloaded 10.10, burned to a live cd and it worked great [06:39] yes [06:39] maco: not exactly since your devs patch everything all to hell. most stuff isn't even recognizable when compared to the vanilla sources [06:39] i'll try to update tomorrow and if that goes awry, i'll do a fresh install [06:39] i see 10.10 have i/o errors all over the place.

[06:40] E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead. [06:40] but hey, if you want to delude yourself into thinking bantu does nothing to stuff... be my guest [06:40] Is there any documentation on the new unity interface on maverick? [06:40] jordan_U yes [06:40] tutuxg: that happens when i try to run apt-get update [06:40] windowshasyou: we cherrypick patches from current devel and put them on top of a stable kernel release to add support for additional hardware. NOT whole new drivers usually (too invasive). just quirks. [06:40] it updates mos tof them but that error is displayed [06:40] thalib: That error usually means that the components of grub in the mbr don't match those in /boot, which usually means grub is being installed on updates to a drive other than the one you're booting from. [06:40] a2f, it's fine [06:40] windowshasyou: and im not deluding myself. i have the kernel tree checked out in git here [06:41] Need help. Have a USB set up for Ubuntu 10.10 32-bit.

[06:42] sco: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [06:42] deryl: i wiped that folder out at first boot... [06:42] deryl: hmmm lol [06:42] then your ~/ [06:42] fishscene, how can I get Ubuntu on to my netbook then? [06:42] srry [06:42] fishscene: only if you created persistant space ont he USB. create the liveUSB without any persistant space [06:42] ejv: check your desktop as well [06:42] a2f, im out of luck here :( [06:42] sco: Can you boot a liveCD on said computer? [06:42] bloopletech: empty [06:43] there a temp folder it reverts to? [06:43] i didnt make one. im on wubi [06:43] ejv: go into ubuntu options and check the location on the ifrst tab [06:43] bastidrazor, I didn't use persistance. [06:43] a2f, did u add the mediubuntu repo? [06:43] ah. Like I said, I don't know about the final release, but bastidrazor might have an answer for you there. [06:43] nvm [06:43] ejv ~ hehe don't wipe that out. a lot of software 9to accomodate Windows users moving to ubuntu) default points at ~/Downloads for stuff downloaded. The only other place it would go would be !/Documents/ [06:43] tutuxg: let me check... [06:43] err ~/Documents [06:43] ejv: then go back to firefox, hit Ctrl+J then right click the download and select 'show in folder' or whichever [06:43] ok thanks fellas :) [06:43] yep [06:43] sco: Do you have a windows install CD? [06:44] ejv: Edit->Preferences->first tab [06:44] i have a restore cd from geek squad [06:44] aha they are in a folder called /tmp/ [06:44] doh! [06:44] errr? [06:44] thx liquid, reset it :D [06:44] netime ejv:) [06:44] yea apparently if you wipe downloads out, it falls back to /tmp [06:45] clever :D [06:45] maco: sorry, didn't see your posts. I have no doubt that you have the current git sources. The question is is whether you pulled it from the kernel.org git or ubuntu. If its the latter, you probably wouldn't know if it was patched. [06:45] @enj: You can find interesting things in /tmp/ :P [06:45] i so wouldn't like that [06:45] sco: Can you burn a copy of Super GRUB2 Disk or an Ubuntu LiveCD? [06:45] is wpasupplicant used for wep-secured networks or only wpa ones [06:45] tutuxg: no medibuntu repos in sources.list [06:45] then again i didn't wipe out my directory :) so never ran into that to learn where it would fall back [06:46] looks like this is a known issue: #549195 Ubiquity should give visual feedback that username cannot contains capital letter(s) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/549195 [06:46] maybe fixed by 11.04? :/ [06:46] argh, why doesn't openssh-server ship, *growls* [06:46] a2f, try add it and update your repo list, mplayer may be out of reach with default repos [06:47] a2f ~ medibuntu doesn't seem to have their meerkat stuff in place yet. (I've a ton of stuff from their repos installed and I d0on't get a response for Packages|Packages.gz ect) [06:47] a2f: you have to add it.. [06:47] windowshasyou: i pull it from ubuntu. there's this lovely little command called "git log". ive also followed the ubuntu-kernel mailing list and irc channel for years. i may not be employed by canonical, but i have a pretty good idea how the kernel team works and how ubuntu development works in general, as i am an ubuntu developer and have contributed to the kernel. we try to maintain the smallest delta from upstream as possible because doing anything else [06:47] is more work for us. that means, we take patches that are already accepted upstream and backport them in most cases. [06:47] Jordan_U: It boots after disconnecting the secondary drive. What do I have to do to get it to work with both connected? [06:47] !medibuntu | a2f This will tell you how. [06:47] a2f This will tell you how.: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [06:47] Is there a way to do a full installation through Wubi? Since my USB drive won't work for it... [06:47] Anyone know how to put time or bandwidth limits on apt-p2p? [06:48] deryl, didnt they just link the lucid one for now? [06:48] bloopletech: it can be used for both [06:48] sweetpi: thanks will try and use that to connect y wifi [06:48] maco: Ah so you were one of the ones that claimed there was nothing wrong whatsoever with the gutsy kernel even though it was killing the laptop hds... Can you give me one reason why I should place any faith in your word? specially since I lost an hd trying that mess? [06:48] Urg, my MacBook is spazzing on grub boot. Any ideas? All that happens is it shows some weird character, and freezes [06:48] Eventus2: Plug in the second drive, boot from a liveCD, then follow these instructions up to step 2. [06:49] Need help with newest unity desktop in 10.10, I think its inferior to the previous version and it runs extremely slow on my netbook. I'd like to ditch the newest unity desktop and go back to the previous one (10.04), but it seems that's not possible based on this post http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1592796. Is there any documentation out yet on 10.10 UNR? [06:49] tutuxg ~ I saw that in the sources.list.d but wasn't sure if it was done becauswe it was a manual add or if it was locked out for a reason until I reenabled it and tried to update [06:49] tutuxg and izinucs and deryl, i can install mplayer if i wanted to (with current repo settings) but not the build-dep. [06:49] windowshasyou: i didnt say anything about gutsy other than "fixed now" [06:49] nwg: check in /etc/apt-p2p.conf [06:49] http://paste.ubuntu.com/510661/ (dmesg log showing errors) [06:49] windowshasyou: well and that it was a long-term issue. it was a matter of extra wear & tear on the drives over the course of *years* [06:49] Eventus2: Once you've chrooted (which is step 2 of that guide) run "dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" and when asked what drives to install grub to select both (don't select any partitions). [06:50] windowshasyou: wear & tear does not accumulate in only the 15 minutes it takes to install. something else must be wrong [06:50] a2f ~ we're just discussing a couple issues the medibuntu sources.list.d/ addition we make brings up. its backchatter [06:50] Jordan_U: it all depends on how memory is needed for one or the other [06:50] deryl, should be up the next day or two [06:50] maco ~ hah! took me 4 hours to download all the packages at 500kB/s and another 3 to actually apply :) [06:50] maco: I'll be back in a minute... your last 3 posts have me laughing so hard that I have tears in my eyes [06:51] deryl: well a CD install takes 15 minutes ;-) [06:51] bazhang ~ figuring as much. i was just under the impression they timed their updates to the release date [06:51] * maco hands windowshasyou a tissue [06:51] maco ~ hehe touche [06:51] sco: What do you mean? [06:51] hey all, I upgraded to 10.10. All is well except the process "events/1" will consume my cpu every 2 sec or so. It messes up my keyboard input. Any ideas? [06:51] Ask your question? [06:52] deryl, they do, the guy from webupd8 has filed a bug and should be online shortly, though not as needed these days as software center can do most if not all as medibuntu stuff [06:52] bazhang ~ ahh yeah, i just use them for the restricted stuff. codecs et al [06:52] Jordan_U: I don't see the link. It might be because I'm on my phone [06:53] my stuff works that i had previously installed from 10.04 so it's a non issue for me at the moment. however, you did clarify enough for me so i know i was on the right track. [06:53] Eventus2: Sorry, forgot to paste the link :) http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide [06:53] bazhang ~ thinking and knowing are not the same thing :) you took me from thinking it was one way to knowing it was one way and why it wasn't acting that way :) [06:54] * Gnurdux needs someone who is on Maverick and has an ATI 5000 series card [06:54] Jordan_U: ok I'll give it a shot [06:54] Ipod [06:54] Jordan_U: i only have CD-Rw disks to use. is Live CD or Super grub going to fit on 700MB? [06:54] Gnurdux: I have a mobility radeon hd 5650 [06:54] bloopletech, are you on Maverick?

I can't figure out why my grub isn't working [06:55] bloopletech, oh [06:55] sorry ;) [06:55] sco: Both will fit, Ubuntu's liveCD is 695 meg and Super GRUB2 Disk is only 1.4 meg :) [06:55] is anyone having an problem with the 10.10 update, not being able to boot into windows or ubuntu, or any other OS...? [06:55] I might be able to help once my system's fixed [06:55] Anybody using Maverick UNR here? [06:55] Windows-y or not, there have to be a LOT of first-timers out there who would also naturally attempt to type their first name in Proper Case as their username [06:55] alexjps ~ more detail [06:55] UNR = ? [06:55] awesome === sorah_off is now known as sora_h [06:56] I can't believe this has been noticed since at least march and nothing done to fix it [06:56] !une | fishscene [06:56] fishscene: Ubuntu Netbook Remix is a slightly altered version of Ubuntu, optimised for small screens. For more information, please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UNR - support in #ubuntu [06:56] Rhcp1253: Is this after a fresh install? [06:56] rymo ~ don't think anyone here is denying that [06:56] i used the software update within 10.04 to upgrade to 10.10, which took about a half hour. [06:56] i'm trying to figure out why clEnqueueAcquireGLObjects is segfaulting [06:56] it said it needed a reboot [06:56] so i did [06:56] Yes, several actually [06:56] alexjps ~ more on 1 line please [06:56] firefox seems to lockup. chrome and google are fine. what;s up with that? [06:56] but it gave me the grub rescue [06:56] alexjps ~ more on 1 line please [06:56] just venting. a lot of time wasted needlesly. [06:57] i'm keeping 10.04 on this machine a while longer until I'm sure my friend has no more problems [06:57] rymo ~ from what you're describing i agree that's NOT intuitive [06:57] really quickly, how do I edit kernel arguments in grub2? [06:57] is there an easy way like in grub1? [06:57] and I guess I'll have to remain cautious about recommending self-installs to more newbies for the time being [06:57] misspapaya: Hold shift during boot to get the grub menu, then press "e" to edit the menu entry and ctrl+x to execute the edited entry. [06:57] so close and yet so far! [06:58] It's a MacBook 5,1, and at this point I'm about ready to trade it in for a thinkpad. Da#n apple [06:58] Jordan_U: will that save it or just execute what I wrote? [06:58] I think I might just have to do a USB install of 10.04 instead, as that should work. [06:58] lol I see thats a popular topic in here [06:58] misspapaya: Just execute what you wrote. If you want to make a permanent change then edit /etc/default/grub then run "sudo update-grub". [06:58] bug 608382? [06:59] aka 'this thing wont boot from USB? [06:59] Jordan_U: thanks [06:59] Is ubuntu shipped with Mac's hardware drivers? [06:59] misspapaya: You're welcome. [06:59] Crypto, yep it seems to be. [06:59] Not sure how else I'd get Ubuntu on a netbook. [06:59] venky10: Mac hardware is PC hardware, so yes. [06:59] !purekde [06:59] If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » [06:59] Ive got no linux boxes in the house right now, so Im in the same boat, only I have to use the windows pendrive creator [06:59] looks like Im boned until they fix something, I think [06:59] venky10 Friends of mine have used the Live CD of Maverick on a Mac Book Pro successfully. [06:59] venky10: depends which hardware though [07:00] I took the ui out of syslinux.cfg and now it hoses with that gfxboot config error [07:00] Hello! [07:00] hi! [07:00] btw, what's the command line tool to add a PPA? [07:00] Jordan_U : For example, the multitouch touchpad recognition. I guess you need separate drivers for it [07:00] totally forgot... [07:00] ejv: apt-add-repository I belive [07:00] hey all, i'm trying to install the netbook version of 10.10 on my U100 [07:01] thx nwg [07:01] ejv, add-apt-repository you mean? [07:01] venky10: No, their multitouch touchpads are nothing mac specific. [07:01] and it just sits there at the SYSLINUX screen [07:01] how is it that this is a pretty critical bug that was opened in JULY, and it persisted until after release [07:01] bazhang: prolly lol [07:01] paradizelost: get in line, lol. Thats a popular unfixed bug [07:01] ejv, the full thing is listed on the PPA page [07:01] But there is a 3rd party driver for the apple multitoucg, wish I had my computer rite now [07:01] Crypto, paradizelost; perhaps we should just go to 10.04 and upgrade? [07:01] any other way to get it on my netbook? i have no cd/dvd rom to attach [07:01] venky10: Though multitouch gesture support in Ubuntu, other than two finger scrolling / three finger tap for middle click, is not great at the moment. [07:02] Jordan_U: I didn't see any kernel lines in that file [07:02] my other option is to go back to win 7 [07:02] sa-evo: we're just trying out the livecd because we didnt care for 10.04 [07:02] sa-evo: we're not installing yet [07:02] misspapaya: Edit GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX [07:02] I hate macs [07:02] !grub2 | misspapaya [07:02] misspapaya: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Ubuntu 9.10.

[07:03] Efi makes no sense [07:03] i upgraded within ubuntu desktop from 10.04 to 10.10, but after the reboot, the grub loader doesn't run and there's no way to boot into either Windows, or Ubuntu. has anyone else had this issue? i get the grub rescue error. [07:03] Anyone know why I keep getti g this error? [07:03] anyone recommend a usenet downloader for kde? [07:04] yo, is there a way to install the new ubuntu on my netbook? [07:04] Sorry if I'm being annoying [07:04] I am insatalling Ubuntu 10 and need help with partitioning my hard drive. I can not have it automaticly done for me, because I am installing a software on myu new Ubuntu that requires its own seperate partition. Taht being said, I need to install Primary drive = seond drive - swap drive. Can any one help me through this process? [07:04] yo: not right now, no [07:04] alexjps: Do you have more than one hard drive? [07:04] Crypto :( [07:04] yo: theres an open bug about the USB sticks not booting on 10.10 [07:04] shit [07:04] yo: unfortunately its been an open bug SINCE JULY [07:04] :( [07:04] ahh.. [07:04] Jordan_U: i have ubuntu on my external and windows on my hdd on my laptop [07:04] bad luck [07:04] yo careful. swearing is not allowed in here [07:05] Crypto did no one test it before releasing it? [07:05] yo ~ I constantly get popped for forgetting :) [07:05] When I want to do a fresh install, I usually "burn" the liveCD to a flashdrive with http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ [07:05] paradizelost: one would have thought so, but I dunno. I think the testers all made assumptions that might not have been true [07:05] deryl are you a bot [07:05] Neep help with partitioning my drives for Ubuntu 10 [07:05] no [07:05] ok then [07:05] as human as the rest :) [07:05] thanks [07:05] alexjps: What happens when you try to boot from the internal drive? [07:05] yep [07:05] well im screwed [07:05] funny, I just noticed that at least 20% or better of the people in this room have a capital letter on their username :) [07:06] i don' tknow I don't own a netbook [07:06] shame upon them all! [07:06] HP CQ61 here [07:06] nwg: lol Note to Ubuntu 10.04 users installing 10.10: The version of UNetbootin from Ubuntu's repositories is outdated and doesn't support Ubuntu 10.10.

I just realized [07:07] Jordan_U: it gives the same error as when i try to use the alternate hdd [07:07] this is an interesting huge server [07:07] yo ~ i'd say probably 90 to 95% of ruby and rails coders do so on Macs. (I'm a throwback cheapy that sticks with x86/x86_64 hardware) [07:07] anybody can tell me how to enable USB ports in Ubuntu 10.10 [07:08] has intel support for 8xx cards been improved in 10.10? [07:08] Why does Ubuntu recommend the 32-bit version of 10.10 on the download page vs. the 64 bit version? [07:08] really 95 programmers of ruby use mac? [07:08] bentspace ~ because many people still use 32bit [07:08] mostly on old hardware [07:08] Hello, I was wondering if someone could assist me in turning my ubuntu into an online webserver. Iḿ trying to host some applications for others to access and utilize. Ive tried fiddling with Apache, but I cant quite figure it out. [07:08] can i get some help pls? =) [07:08] deryl do you have a developer page or something [07:08] Jordan_U: it says something like "error: not on disk: xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxx" where the x's are a bunch of letters and numbers. [07:08] !ask | Xeakin [07:08] BentSpace: Issues with flash on 64 bit, and because some people only have 32 bit hardware. [07:08] Xeakin: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [07:08] yo no [07:08] inuyasha10121: #httpd could help you if you dont get help here [07:09] ok ubottu thanks im pretty new here lol [07:09] !thanks | Xeakin [07:09] Xeakin: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [07:09] 10.10, how does it work? [07:09] NEDD Help in partitioning my Drives in Ubuntu 10 install [07:09] But if you have a 64-bit capable system does Ubuntu recommend using the 64-bit version? [07:09] Jordan_U: i can reboot and try again and get the exact error, but im not able to boot windows or ubuntu from either hdd, im using the live disc [07:09] yo i deal with companies like the canadian cat association, american cat association, private local firms ect. word of mouth mostly. (I'm in no way a huge name) [07:09] alexjps: Can you run boot info script as explained here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and pastebin the RESULTS.txt ? [07:09] @dogmatic Thanks for the advice, I will move there if I don get a response soon. [07:09] bentspace ~ yes [07:10] inuyasha10121: it is more apache related than ubuntu though :) [07:10] bbl [07:10] ok ive installed ubuntu 10.10 two times, i have windows 7 and when i do install unbuntu, windows is listen in grub2 but when i choose it to boot with it, it just doesnt, it keep commin back to grub2 menu over and over, first time this happen to me [07:10] Jordan_U: sure, i already ran that. gimme a minute. thanks in advance :) [07:10] bentspace ~ you get the one for your specific hardware. if you have a 32bit, get the 32bit. if 64... [07:10] Jordan_U, deryl, does 10.10 64 bit still have a problem with flash? [07:10] @dogmatic69: Yeah, I just didnt really know where to go to [07:11] Xeakin: You accidentily installed grub to your windows partition. [07:11] bentspace ~ not that I have seen. I'm on 10.10 with 64bit flash and I've no issues [07:11] ubuntu 10.10 is finally here, huree..e! [07:11] can i atp-get upgrade my 10.10.rc1 to 10.10final? [07:11] nwg thanks for the suggestion. it appears to be working so far [07:11] xeakin ~ or you have 2 partitions (some laptops have 2 partitions. 1 boots windows the other actually holds windows like the HP line does) [07:11] at least it's at a splash screen [07:11] ubuntu10.10is better than ubuntu10.04? [07:11] Jordan_U windows seven makes a partition of like 100 megabytes for the mbr thats where i tell grub2 to install not where windows is wich is another partition [07:11] deryl, Jordan_U, sweet, thank you. [07:12] could be that it's trying to boot from the windows second partition but that's not set up to boot, only trhe first is. [07:12] Crypto: I used to have this memory stick that I had put all sorts of fun things on including PartedMagic, NT Password Recovery (http://pogostick.net/~pnh/ntpasswd/), and an Ubuntu LiveCD. It was so much fun! I could take it to campus and (since the computers there didn't have the BIOS protected) I could boot from it and never leave my comfortable Linux environment. ^_^ [07:12] what is the best way to determine the mount point for your dvdrw drive? I have checked fstab and mtab but I don't have a point in there however when i load a music cd ubuntu loads it up [07:12] Xeakin: You should never install grub to a partition. [07:12] yo, go to http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ and use that [07:12] that's something you have to find out for your laptop [07:12] its working for me so far [07:12] jordan_u ~ you sure he's installing to the partition and not the MBR? [07:12] Xeakin: That 100 meg partition is Windows's equivelent of a separate /boot, it is needed for booting windows. [07:12] Jordan_U ive done it like that with older ubuntu versions, how should i do then? [07:12] deryl: Yes. [07:12] jordan_u ~ ok [07:13] where grub2 goes? lol im lost [07:13] hehe yeah don't delete that 100MB windows partition. SO a bad idea [07:13] Jordan_U: i have it in the pastebin, http://paste.ubuntu.com/510674/ [07:13] Xeakin: Install to the mbr, e.g. /dev/sda rather than /dev/sda1 [07:13] Do you all know where the webm video is stored on Ubuntu 10.01? [07:13] ok i will, thank you very much =) [07:14] I NEED HELP Can Any one help mke? [07:14] ME?

[07:14] I have asked like 3 times lool [07:14] Xeakin: Just installing grub to the right place wont fix your windows partition though, to do that follow these instructions: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector [07:14] deryl [07:14] cpu fan i ment* [07:14] I got two big issues after upgrading to 10.10: 1) picking the 2.6.35 kernel from Grub makes me stuck in a black screen and 2) using the 2.6.32 it boots but there doesn't seem to be support for nividia [07:14] aoglobalent684 ~ well thenh wait until someone answers [07:14] Xeakin could be your fan is plugged with dust [07:14] aoglobalent684 ~ if they know they will. if they don't they wont [07:14] I need help partitioning my hard drives for an Ubuntu 10 instal [07:15] Crypto: Unfortunatly, one time when I tried to use it in my camera, it decided the files on there would make a good snack. :P [07:15] it doesnt do it in windows 7 paradizelost === massmc1 is now known as JimBoogie [07:15] aoglobalent684 ~ let the installer do it [07:15] deryl [07:15] aoglobalent684: use gparted [07:15] aoglobalent684 ~ you're going to annoy me REAL fast [07:15] okay, Im using the current-brand-new version of netbootin [07:15] deryl the software that I need to run on Ubuntu requires me to have a seperate partitioned drive and I can't do that with the auto partitioning [07:15] its writing out now. I'll reboot and try to see if it comes up afterwards [07:16] Any tool by which I can monitor bandwidth of LAN, want to monitor bandwidth being used by each PC in LAN.. [07:16] alexjps: It's a known bug in wubi that I am ashamed hasn't been fixed yet. [07:16] aoglobalent684 ~ then use the manual partitioner. the options specifically allow you to manually partition [07:16] its just a simple checkbox on the screen [07:16] Jordan_U: how can i get around this? [07:16] 10.10, how does it work [07:16] aoglobalent684 ~ actually READ the pages as you install [07:16] deryl, sorry I typed your name and hit enter without writing what I needed to say, IT happened by mistake [07:16] JimBoogie: miracle [07:17] can we adjust the time out function on 10.2 [07:17] Jordan_U: is this something i have to just... essentially, deal with, until its fixed?

[07:17] ok i'm steppin away before i choke someone [07:17] aoglobalent684: do you need help with how *to* partition, or with how things should *be* partitioned? [07:17] oi [07:18] deryl: lol [07:18] im trying to upgrade form 10.0.4 but it says Ubuntu 'Maverick Meerkat' development release [07:18] alexjps: If you can boot an Ubuntu liveCD then "sudo apt-get install mbr; sudo install-mbr /dev/sda" (if sda is your internal drive, whatever you do do *NOT* select a partition like sda1) should fix it untill the next upgrade of the grub-pc package.

[07:20] that came since jaunty [07:20] sco: Tell me when you have Super GRUB2 Disk or an Ubuntu LiveCD burned. [07:20] is there is any command to count the number of users in the room?? irc command??

Try to google gnucomo [07:20] Exploiter: "/names -count" does that in irssi [07:21] aoglobalent684: I personally don't like the partitioner in the installer, so I usually do the grunt work with GParted and then simply select where/what things are with the installer. [07:21] Hey everyone. How can I run a set of commands when a user logs in? [07:21] Jordan_U: wait. There's a super grub2 disk?! IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR SO LONG! [07:21] hello, is maverick stable?

[07:26] woulfe, use the "Additional Drivers" from System menu, it works ... press activate and reboot when it's done/claims so. [07:26] clear [07:26] bazhang dual boot i can use like 200 gb for linux [07:26] woulfe, it does i am using it now. [07:26] aoglobalent684: But yeah, I use GParted to create/resize/move partitions all before hand. [07:26] i have 4gb of ram [07:26] @Jordan_U thats understandable but, ive done this and screen resolution is not correct, like its on default driver. [07:26] deryl: I prefer the smell of severed limbs. Maybe that's just me... [07:27] ejv ~ hehe careful with that. i advocate at least equal to ram (for a full ram swapout if needed) but that always starts a war so careful ;) [07:27] sco: Yea, the download page needs to be much more discoverable, http://download.berlios.de/supergrub/super_grub_disk_hybrid-1.98s1.iso [07:27] woulfe, the use the nvidia settings instead. [07:27] rhcp1253 ~ haloweenie :) [07:27] Xeakin, 250MB for /boot 2GB swap 20 GB for / and the rest for a separate /home partition [07:27] why is it that when i do apt-get update nothing downloads but when i use the update manager theres packages to update? [07:27] just don't know... [07:27] baz thanks! :D [07:27] where is my private/publick keys? [07:27] @jasa There is nothing listed in there. [07:27] Lanks: Because update gets anything that you need to 'upgrade' [07:27] deryl: I'm making a bionic pumpkin! It's awesome! [07:28] Lanks: I think you may have "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade" confused. [07:28] anyways, methinks I'm going to go to bed. too much to do in the morning [07:28] rhcp1253 ~ hahahah niiice [07:28] Lanks: If you want to update from the terminal, use the command sudo apt-get upgrade [07:28] ok thanks for clarifying for me ryen and jordan [07:28] juk ~ .ssh for ssh .gnupg for gpg/pgp [07:28] Lanks: You're welcome. [07:28] Crap. It's too late 2 be up. Ok, night ppl [07:28] why i do not see Maverick in UBuntu updates? [07:28] And sorry pr the curse [07:29] uLinux: Your apt mirror probably hasn't been updated yet. [07:29] juk ~ ONLY share the ones for gpg/pgp marked with .pub as the extension. the other is your secret key. BACK THAT UP AND PROTECT IT [07:29] uLinux, do you have checked only look for LTS? [07:29] let me see [07:29] anways.. i'm out for the night. later all [07:29] yeah bazhang [07:29] it's LTS only [07:29] gschwepp: thanks, It seems like capturing activities of own Ethernet. [07:29] uLinux, uncheck it [07:29] :) [07:30] bazhang: i will upgrade manually [07:30] i was just curious [07:30] deryl: thanks, I thinking what would I do with that [07:30] What's the best way to file a proper bug report? I have a reproducible problem that causes a segfault. [07:30] !bug [07:30] If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs - Bugs in/wishes for the IRC bots (not Ubuntu) can be filed at http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots [07:30] now it shows 10.10 available [07:31] lol [07:31] Running that of 10.10, feels pleasant overally, atleast after removing packages and freeing over the cd amount of packages it shipped with. = ) [07:32] Thanks! [07:32] Uncompressed of course. [07:32] what's the use of "Add CD-ROM..." in Other Software tab? [07:32] heh. I noticed my system had set itself to "LTS only" after it had updated to 10.04 [07:32] In GParted, how can I move/resize a partition to use free space that's in front of it? [07:32] well, okay, I can confirm that using the current daily build of unetbootin will boot up a 10.10 USB key [07:32] how can I see what repo a package is in? [07:33] Muscovy: check the box that says beginning [07:33] so make sure to add that as a data point for the 50,000 people that come in here between now and whenever the ubuntu web site has correct information [07:33] so, lol unity and X on 10.10 apparently hate my intel GMA graphics card [07:33] Muscovy: Click on the partition you want to move/resize and then click on the third button from the left. [07:34] * Nimrodel is now away, auto-away after 20 minutes (log\on pager\on) [07:34] Ok my last question, wow i wish i discover irc sooner :) [07:34] i didnt found a video showing how to upgrade manually by keeping the /home partition [07:34] that's not even a question... >:\ [07:34] The Cpu Fan when im on ubuntu works like crazy even if i have like no app runing, why is that? [07:34] unity wont start and X is stuck at 1024x768 [07:34] It doesn't seem to acknowledge the space in front of it, nwg. [07:34] Muscovy: Then drag/drop the partition however you want, or enter sizes manually if you want. [07:35] So will the 'additional drivers' widget magically update when there's a new Nvidia driver, or do I have to do something special? [07:35] When should update-manager to show update to 10.10 is avail, cant see it yet [07:35] Muscovy: oh. hrm. Are extended partitions involved here in any way? [07:35] deryl: Is it better to use pgp ir openssl for enryption signing etc.? [07:35] ...Yes they are, nwg. === AK|offline is now known as Andorin [07:36] I guess, worst case scenario I play data tetris and reinstall that machine. [07:37] The Maverick partition is too small currently. === sailerboy is now known as zz_sailerboy [07:37] Muscovy: If the space is not inside the extended partition, you have to drag the extended partition to fill it first, and then drag the inside partition into the new space. [07:37] I'm having trouble installing the 64-bit version of Ubuntu, it freezes during installation when it says installing system [07:37] Grim in update manger settings change the update to normal release [07:37] The Cpu Fan when im on ubuntu works like crazy even if i have like no app runing, why is that?

[07:38] hi [07:38] i've got a big problem with pulseaudio [07:38] Muscovy: Although I know I've had issues with things being reported as "in use" even when they are unmounted. [07:38] liquid, ah, thats it, that fixed it, thx [07:38] i'm unable to complete the installation of the 64-bit version of ubuntu [07:38] it stalls about 80% [07:38] nwg: Ah, gotcha.

I've done over-night partitioning myself before ^_^ [07:40] can you help me with the installation issue [07:41] but [07:41] it says it in his letter [07:41] what's the name of 10.10? Is it perfect 10? [07:41] stunned: no u r not stealing, though with it u can [07:41] i have a evga x58 3x sli motherboard with a core i7 cpu and 12gb of ram [07:41] nwg: Same. I once decided to fill up a 15 MB gap at the front of the drive. THAT was a fun 8 hours. [07:41] Evening all. What's this about Ubuntu having social networking stuff on the desktop? What do people think of it? I need to know whether to make the upgrade. [07:41] i'm having an issue with installation of the 64-bit version of ubuntu [07:41] but i am confused. ubuntu is a hobbyist ?OS? [07:41] woulfe: I am using my GeForce 880 (I think that's it) with the nouveau drivers and it's fine. [07:41] the installation is very slow and often stalls [07:41] StunnedByNews: that's so old :P [07:42] KeithWeisshar, i think it's slow too... but it's no big deal really [07:42] richardcavell: there's a panel applet that interfaces to chat, mail, and broadcast (think digg, twitter) accounts. [07:42] i have checked the cd for defects and it says no errors found [07:42] but it is official document [07:42] i don't want to go to jail [07:42] woulfe: I can't play video games yet. [07:42] richardcavell: Ubuntu has chat and "microblogging" clients installed, as a more direct method of using the services than a browser. [07:42] @Mathuin what is the nouveau driver? [07:42] StunnedByNews: lol, don't worry ;D [07:42] StunnedByNews: it's also older than three quarters of the people in this channel, I suspect. [07:42] !package nouveau [07:42] Muscovy: Is it like Twitterific on OS X? [07:42] well i just don't want to be around when the hammer drops if it does [07:42] richardcavell: They're particularly nice for alerts and so on. [07:43] StunnedByNews: you're not serious ..? [07:43] I'm afraid I don't know what Twitterific is. [07:43] it stalls at about 80% at installing system [07:43] it is a real document [07:43] But I would guess it's like that. [07:43] woulfe: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Nouveau [07:43] randomofamber: He's trolling. [07:43] no i am not [07:43] i saw it in his biography [07:43] /agree troll [07:43] bill gates wrote that [07:43] dxrt: yeah probably, xD. I'm just too tired to notice >.< [07:43] the installation gets stuck at around 80% [07:43] Muscovy: lol. Yeah, I hate random little unusable unallocated bits. Also, I do my best to have my entire system in a single extended partition, although on the few computers that still have a bootable Windoze on them, those have to stay outside and then... things get complicated. [07:43] StunnedByNews: So what? [07:43] I need to know ASAP what protocol is used for UBUNTU ONE. Is it using some kind of torrent protocol? [07:44] new question, i select a new wallpaper, and it doesn't fade in... why did it break? does this have something to do with applying the restricted drivers (that all worked completely in 10.04) ? [07:44] fishscene1: No, it's centralized, probably http. [07:44] fishscene1: I _think_ it's just web. [07:44] fishscene1: Why? === cdbob_ is now known as cdbob [07:44] due to a problem with installation, i had to boot the windows repair disc and run bootrec /fixmbr [07:45] @Mathuin is there a way to install such a driver? [07:45] in fact, selecting wallpapers is completely fubar now... :( [07:45] Jordan_U. I'm getting denial of service and this typically only happens when my ISP throttles my traffic... however, I just went completely offline and I've been ransacking my network for the cause (TONS of traffic going to the internet, but no one could get online). [07:45] the installation was stuck at installing system after it has already installed grub2 [07:45] woulfe: it should be installed by default. I didn't have to do anything special. You can go to the synaptic package manager to check that it's installed.

[07:57] PhrostyB: not that I know of, there might be an addon or plugin for nautilus you can install though :) [07:57] hmmm [07:57] just saying its slow means and does nothing if you can't even pinpoint a specific point to start from. most of us here are on 10.10 and either did a fresh install or an upgrade (such as I did) and I've not seen anyone BUT you say the installer is slow [07:57] good idea [07:57] just installed Ubuntu Netbook 10.10 ... not able to figure out how to share files across computers on my network? [07:58] the installer stalled in the later stage of the installation after grub was updated [07:58] Anyone know how to schedule apt-p2p to only run at certain times of the day? [07:59] prometheus5201: I couldn't see a graphical way to mount remote drives or anything, so I used the standard Ubuntu wiki pages to enable NFS and modify /etc/fstab. [07:59] Need a bit of help. Updated 10.04, and got the annoying 'gave up waiting for root device'. Suggestions to fix? [07:59] wow, i so knew there was a reason i was going to bed [07:59] it stalled with the progress bar about 3/4 to the right [07:59] installer alternate = slow also [07:59] Nautilus actions is an extension for Nautilus, the GNOME file manager. It allows the configuration of programs to be launched on files selected in the Nautilus interface. [07:59] ty @ Mathuin .... i hope this changes in the future [07:59] PhrostyB: sounds about right... nothing about root though? [08:00] doesn't seem like it :( [08:00] I can get framebuffer if I do something like "sudo fbterm" but doing a grub line like " vga=791" doesn't work, and instead gives me a lower resolution. Any ideas? [08:00] specially if something fails on a slow computer, then you're looking at a two hour install [08:00] hi everybody. I'm under karmic. Unable to use the "svn co" :-/ method to get the latest xbmc (I'm under karmic, firewall is disable) [08:00] PhrostyB: hmm... where did linux mint get/make it? I'm sure you could grab that version [08:00] yea maybe [08:01] Updated 10.04, and got the annoying 'gave up waiting for root device'. Anyone have a suggestion to fix? It loads to busybox after awhile, but I have a LiveCD too. [08:01] What does it mean when you can only get a framebuffer by doing "sudo fbterm" ? [08:02] I would like to make a bootable/live CD from my running config, is that possible? [08:02] MagicJ: like remastersys? [08:03] I'm looking for an UML with PHP support, on Linux. Any ideas ? [08:03] randomOfAmber: I don't know, that is why I asked the question, what is rematersys? [08:03] not sure where to find it randomOfAmber [08:03] MagicJ: I'm pretty sure it's exactly what you want. to make a backup and use it as an installer?

I have a 2gb cheapie flash stick that I made into a startup disc but my BIOS doesn't seem to want to boot from it. It doesn't list USB Media as a choice in the boot order list, even though it's a very new computer. Any thoughts? [08:05] http://ppa.launchpad.net/ferramroberto/linuxfreedommaverick/ubuntu [08:05] ? [08:05] What is the reason for only root being able to access framebuffer? [08:05] clicking authenticate on Ubuntu Netbook 10.10 does nothing... it just hangs there....any suggestions? [08:06] [08:06] replicasex: try it on another computer to rule out the flash drive being the problem? [08:06] So, how does one remove the graphical splash screen when booting to just display the text? I don't care what it looks like when booting and I prefer to see what is wrong if something does go wrong! :P [08:06] I need to schedule apt-p2p to only run at certain times of the day. How can I do this? [08:06] I have an Intel GMA945 on a second-gen MacBook. Support for it has been flakey on Ubuntu, but it is improving. Can anyone vouch for 10.10 on an Intel GMA chipset? [08:06] mobasher, No, you didn't understand me, i just said i already asked #php. [08:06] Gwar: maybe an option in grub (people in #grub would know) [08:06] randomOfAmber, the only other computer I have on hand is very old, almost certainly not supporting USB booting. [08:07] DjAngo23=>> yea i got that part what I was asking what kind of support are you looking for ? [08:07] hello, is there a java documentation application that runs on ubuntu, gnome? [08:07] Gwar: edit /etc/default/grub and remove the quiet and splash options from the relevant line, save, run "sudo update-grub" [08:07] replicasex: do you have gparted installed? you could use that to check that your flash drive has the 'boot' flag enabled [08:07] I want to run one hentai game... is it possible under Ubuntu? [08:07] Gwar: edit as rww has instrcted [08:07] rww: thank you [08:08] reset full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3 <--- what does this mean? === cdbob__ is now known as cdbob [08:08] Zliq_mishokk: If you use Wine, probably. === petur is now known as Guest60183 [08:08] Zliq_mishokk=>> were you able to run that in windows ??

[08:09] randomOfAmber, yes, it does have the boot flag, as well as Iba [08:09] rww: liquid: I see a GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" line, do I remove the "quiet splash" or can I just comment out the line or what? xD [08:10] yeah [08:10] i were able to run it in Windows [08:10] randomOfAmber, I don't think the flash drive is the problem, I just don't know how to get my computer to boot from it. [08:10] but with wine there's no subs === Guest60183 is now known as qetuR [08:10] and crash xD [08:10] Gwar: change it to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="" [08:10] Gwar: remove the "quiet splash"...leave the rest and finish as rww suggested [08:10] hexonxonx=>> try http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-tutorials-howtos-reference-material/3393-how-set-up-framebuffer-part-1-a.html [08:11] Zliq_mishokk=>> try WinhQ -> http://www.winehq.org/ [08:11] Zliq_mishokk=>> well that's your best bet :) [08:11] replicasex: hmm...

[08:11] hej! i have a problem, my network-manager icon in the tray says im disconnected, even if im connected, im using a Acer TimelineX with wireless [08:11] ok thanks! XD i'll try === sas is now known as noob-sas [08:12] randomOfAmber, what do you mean, what kind of BIOS? And no, I haven't done this before. I usually go by CD/DVD but the only DVD I have is a bit manky and I'd rather not trust it to boot. [08:12] thanks all! [08:12] hey randomOfAmber i figured it out [08:12] http://www.pendrivelinux.com/how-to-open-files-as-root-via-a-right-click/ [08:12] PhrostyB: awesome, thanks for the link ^^ [08:12] np [08:13] no need for mint now :P [08:13] randomOfAmber, it gives me a 'floppy group' (lawl) but no USB entry for the boot order list. [08:13] 20 minutes in and i have over 213 bugs to report regarding Ubuntu Netbook 10.10 ... they should have not taken this out of beta this early :( [08:13] since you can install non-free repos in ubuntu immediately [08:13] mobasher, Well, i just needed to know if there was a good UML for PHP, but if I have to ask a #php, then I will ask their ;) [08:13] replicasex: and this is a new(er) computer? [08:13] randomOfAmber, less than a year old. [08:14] DjAngo23=>> well you can try "UMLet" not sure what it contains check the package out [08:14] replicasex: hmm, well sometimes there'll be a 'choose boot device' menu (f12 on dells), and a 'setup' menu (f2 on dells) [08:14] Is there a way to specify using VESA as a framebuffer in GRUB's menu.lst? [08:14] okay, 10.10 is now installed, trying to install the poulsbo drivers now [08:14] Anyone having trouble with multitouch with the Apple Trackpad? [08:14] replicasex: you can change it long term with the setup menu if you can't find it in the other menu (then just change it back when you're done) [08:15] randomOfAmber, yes there's a boot menu on mine, but I don't want to switch what I boot *from* do I? I want to install the OS onto my HDD, not try to run an OS from the flash drive. [08:15] since I allowed an update gnome has been misbehaving [08:15] DjAngo23=>> there is also "umbrello" not sure if that will help you..if you are looking for code generator or something [08:16] especially whenever I use mplayer [08:16] replicasex: well yes, but you can switch it (boot flash drive first, then hdd). then install it, then switch it back [08:16] my mouse flakes out under 10.10. the click event just stops working after a while. occurred on both in-place upgrade and fresh install. [08:17] DjAngo23=>> also check dia2code [08:17] randomOfAmber, i'm rather afraid it will irreparably harm my system if I switch it out ... so if I tell it to boot form there (assuming it shows) then it will still install to my HDD? [08:20] is pdt pst in date? [08:20] same? [08:20] replicasex: Is it the DVD drive that's bad or the disk? Do you have an OS installed currently? [08:20] Jordan_U, I don't think anything is 'bad' at all. It just isn't showing up in the regular boot order list so I haven't been able to use it to install 10.10 [08:21] replicasex: I meant your comment "the only DVD I have is a bit manky". [08:21] Jordan_U, oh, yes, it's the disc that's a bit degraded. [08:22] how can i configure individual compiz effects? [08:23] peepsalot, do you have the compiz configurations manager installed? [08:23] peepsalot=>> install compiz config manager [08:23] you can search for "ccsm" in the ubuntu store [08:23] hello [08:23] replicasex: yes, it will ask you and you can install it on your hdd. usually boot menus are by priority as well, so it would boot the flash drive if it was there... then the hdd (if you never switched it nack) [08:23] ! ccsm | peepsalot [08:23] peepsalot: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz [08:24] ok thanks [08:24] Hi, can I upgrade from ubuntu 10.04 lts to 10.10 without reformatting?

[08:25] Agent001, nope. [08:25] Agent001: no [08:25] k great! [08:25] Agent001, of course you should back up just in case ... [08:25] soreau: gksu is not needed (the password will be asked for when you actually choose to upgrade). [08:25] indeed, never a bad idea to backup [08:25] randomOfAmber, to be honest, I updated earlier today. Feels a bit more sluggish than it used to, that's why I'm thinking of doing a fresh install. [08:26] replicasex: good plan, fresh installs are the BEST [08:26] Jordan_U: Ah ok. Kinda like gdebi (oh I really miss gdebi after seeing software center) [08:26] Where art thou, gdebi? [08:26] my update manager doesn't list 10.10 upgrade [08:26] soreau: You can still use gdebi. [08:27] Agent001: Try 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && update-manager -d' [08:27] Jordan_U: Thanks ghad [08:27] Hi there . I've downloaded Ubuntu10.10 Netbook Edition and used the StartUp Disk Creator for creating a live USB . but when it boots it shows:" Syslinux 3.63 Debian Copyright 2008 Unknown Keyword in configuration file . boot: " and does nothing . what should I do? [08:27] Jordan_U: I'll look it up [08:27] randomOfAmber, I'm just worried it's more trouble than it's worth, lol. So when I switch to the boot, and I get the regular install screen will it be showing the HDD drive or the flash stick itself ? [08:27] soreau: In fact I think it's still included by default. [08:27] how do i update ubuntu server to 10.10? do-release-upgrade says no new version [08:27] Agent001, did you select regular updates instead of only LTS? [08:27] Jordan_U: Unless it's under a different binary name, it isn't [08:27] soreau: The "-d" isn't needed now that it's released :) [08:27] Jordan_U: Well you'd think [08:28] I went to System -> Administrative -> Update manager [08:29] Agent001, to settings [08:29] then 'update' [08:29] how busy is here! Hi there .

[08:29] that software center is *slow* when it tried to take over installing a deb package for me [08:29] Hello everyone [08:29] pretty ridiculous [08:30] replicasex: it will ask you. if you see ___ GB and ___ GB and one of them's like 4 GB then that's probably your flash drive. it shows the brand names (like pny, western digital) too I think [08:30] Also I found a bug [08:30] randomOfAmber, ok well i'm going to go try :P if I come back from my old computer shouting my head off, I'll know who to yell at first :P [08:30] thanks replica, i got it to work [08:30] replicasex: good plan :P [08:31] hi, i just installed 10.10 on my netbook, and i am having a problem where whenever an authentication dialog appears, and after i punched in my password and click authenticate, the password field disappears and the dialog just stays there =( [08:31] Firefox->find some deb d/l 2) open with default (sw center) 3) Close firefox 4) Watch software center fail because the deb package is now deleted from /tmp [08:31] Is there a way to remove the update description in update manage?

I couldn't find them on download page [08:34] Hi, I've just successfully upgrade to Maverick. Thanks again for a smooth upgrade. :) Only thing is, that ipconfig (spawned by dropbear) permanently causes 100% cpu load. Any hints?

Sure it can be removed? [08:39] lemmy: Are you sure you're using ubuntu 10.10?

Click the "X" button on the authentication dialog box after you type in your password. It should proceed normally.

[09:12] peepsalot: Do you have ccsm>Gnome Compatibility enabled? (and screenshot set inside of the plugin) [09:12] mekwall: KVM's a hardware-layer implementation as well, so it should be similar if not better.

[09:36] moetunes: it wont because i added HISTFILE=/dev/null to .bashrc [09:36] k [09:36] i guess [09:37] but i can also disable using .bash_history just dont know the difference [09:37] uLinux: HISTFILE= no need for /dev/null [09:37] uLinux: just unset that var if you don't want a history [09:37] having a history file is useful. why would you disble it? [09:38] llutz_: oh ok [09:38] llutz_: echo "unset HISTFILE" >> /home/USER/.bash_profile [09:38] what's the difference? [09:39] uLinux: there's no difference [09:39] uLinux, .bash_profile is only sourced for login shells -- so you might not see the effects of that for a regular shell in a terminal emulator [09:39] uLinux: add itto ~/.bashrc === bloopletech_ is now known as bloopletech [09:39] llutz_: ye i prefer [09:40] Hi.

[09:40] nascentmind update first? [09:40] uLinux: afaik yes [09:40] nascentmind: cause 10.04 is an LTS [09:41] krzyhoo: I want to upgrade to maverick.

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [09:42] llutz_: i just use scrollback [09:42] llutz_: uLinux doesnt want his wget www.youporn.com to show up in history :) [09:43] :D [09:43] lol [09:43] then what you really want is HISTCONTROL=ignorespace [09:43] <_ting_> I dont know why when i have my computer running for a few days, the firefox after a few hours it lose the connection to the ALSA or something like that [09:43] ignoreboth [09:43] and then start the questionable wget line with a space [09:43] <_ting_> because anything that i play inside the firefox it has not sound [09:43] <_ting_> i have to reset the firefox [09:43] \q [09:44] <_ting_> and it is a little bit tedious [09:44] rcsheetsKRC: ignorespace?

[09:47] it's an example === le_seaneau is now known as el_seano [09:48] i mean, if you don't want a history, use bourne shell or something ;) [09:49] i have quetsion where to place optional software for example i just downloaded ant, to which directory shopud i move that? [09:49] kibibyte: /opt is pretty good for that kind of thing. like /opt/ant [09:49] ok [09:49] kibibyte: also there's /usr/local [09:49] it really just depends where you want it to be [09:50] is there any standard for it [09:50] i prefer /var for instance [09:50] !fhs [09:50] An explanation of how files and directories are organized on Ubuntu, and how they can be manipulated, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview see also: man hier [09:50] kibibyte: see ubottu [09:50] putting applications in /var is nonstandard.

[10:00] I had to set nomodes in grub to get X to start up in 10.10 (using intel i915 graphics), now the only problem is ubuntu can't detect my monitor and set the correct resolution. the highest it will let me do is 800x600. how can i force 1024x768? [10:00] anyone else's mouse stops clicking when opening calculator? [10:01] Well, I've got an odd problem. All of a sudden both my flash drives are refusing to boot- if I try to start up from one of them, I get an error. Also, there was an error when formatting one of them, and now gparted crashes when I try to have it scan the drive. I'm running Maverick. What do I do? [10:01] newbie_: I did, I got the manual choice.

But why there is not "instal alongside other operating systems" option? she has windows vista on her machine. [10:02] I added the GetDeb Apps repository and now I noticed that I can't access the regular Ubuntu repo apps - at least some of them. Is that normal?

Gparted and fdisk expose itt correctly [10:03] I'll keep poking, I was wondering if upgrades rolled out after the from scratch installs. === cs278|| is now known as cs278^kinslayer [10:03] newbie_: this one's GPT (but I'm not sure if I'm using EFI or not). I'm sure it would work with MBR. which is yours? [10:03] randomOfAmber: MBR [10:04] does update-manager -d usually show RC releases?

Trying to install ubuntu 10.10 on my girlfriend's Acer laptop. But why there is no "install alongside other operating systems" option? she has windows vista on her machine. [10:04] spikebike: I guess you could just upgrade to the rc, and then update that, and you'd have 10.10 but yeah, I'm not advising that :p [10:04] hmm [10:05] tyw: Could you pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l" from the LiveCD? [10:05] chu: heh, well I run the mirror I'm updating against, so I'm looking for any signs of problems [10:05] experts: ist there any change to enaple PuTTY like copy in Terminal (marking text cpopies it and right click pestes it) [10:05] hello [10:05] anyone got his mouse not functioning in maverick?

But I can check when I get back home. But can you tell me what output should I expect please? [10:06] suigeneris, perhaps it's waiting for an input? [10:06] lightpriest_ no it's not [10:06] randomOfAmber: ok, i'll try to chek it. Thank you [10:07] Jane_uk: Jane_uk clean up? Does apt-get autoremove do anything?

[10:07] tyw: The main reason that no existing partitions are listed by the installer is that the hard drive has an invalid partition table. Specifically, if two or more partitions "overlap". [10:07] newbie_: yeah, sorry I'm not more help... I really don't know what could be causing this. if you do have a faulty disc I'd say get the next one with bittorrent, that's usually pretty foolproof [10:08] hi [10:08] tyw: If that is the case then "sudo parted -l" will warn about it, if not then it will list the partitions. [10:08] Aemaeth: how about your g-spot. can you find it? :) [10:08] chu, yes sorry, I'm a developer of commercial application for Linux and I've heard it is now possible to submit them to software central [10:08] i'm using maverick on a hp netbook mini 210. my right mouse button isn't working anymore. any suggestions?

[10:08] I have ndiswrapper wrapper and a windows driver installed, but my pci wifi card is still showing 'unclaimed' thoughts? [10:09] randomOfAmber: by the way, i've got same problem with RC image of Xubuntu yesterday [10:09] chu, thanks anyway, i'm trying to google it anyway [10:09] Aemaeth: it could have been removed by the upgrade as ubuntu uses shotwell now, but you should be able to install it agian in that case [10:09] tyw: If you do see an error about overlapping partitions then you should fix the discrepancy ASAP, because overlapping partitions can easily cause data loss (two filesystems will be writing to the same part of the disk). [10:09] ty yofel [10:09] bll [10:09] newbie_: odd... maybe it's something to do with your hardware? or a bug in the new installer... [10:09] bbl [10:09] randomOfAmber: but i decide that problem caused by RC status [10:09] spikebike: not sure if you got an answer, but you should not use update-manager -d when there is an official release. Use update manager as usual, just change release from lts to normal under settings. [10:09] Kaco: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AppReviews - does this help? [10:10] tyw: You can find out which partitions are overlapping / how by looking at the output of "sudo fdisk -lu" (look at the start and end blocks for each partition).

So it still remains Acer factory partitions. Do you think there is chance that Acer did not do it properly? [10:11] chu - "0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. [10:11] " [10:11] maedox: ah, cool, thanks. That fixes it. -d finds the rc, but turning off LTS only finds the maverick release. [10:11] so i started a normal upgrade and everything was ok until a package of a program i never use (hylas or something like that, it isn't important something with fax) was broken an produces an error. I reboot and now i can't start my computer because the power-modus can't be started (or something like that, sorry). I can install it completly new, but then I need my thunderbird savings (mails). The rest I can get through live-cd but I don [10:11] 't know how to get the mails. Has anyone an Idea [10:12] thanks [10:12] Andorin: It sounds like it may just be bad hardware. [10:12] i was hoping it would clear the mod probe warning i have at boot up [10:12] Also, has anyone else had trouble with Maverick's usb-creator-gtk? From my tentative testing it seems buggy: startup discs created with it refuse to boot. [10:12] spikebike: yes, the -d switch is so you can install pre-releases. [10:12] I am trying to upgrade to 10.10, and the installation process has been trying to replace libnih-dbus1 for the past 15-20 minutes. any thoughts? [10:12] maedox: I figured it would still find newer release, that's fixed. Thanks. [10:13] Jane_uk: I'm not sure sorry. [10:13] Jordan_U: The drive was fine until I tried to format it [10:13] tyw: I can't say. I don't know how anyone gets into a situation with overlapping partitions, but it's common enough that it may be from OEMs screwing things up. Most partitioning tools won't let you create such a partition table. [10:14] does anyone know how to reset an upgrade? [10:14] how do i upgrade assault cube 1.0.4 to 1.1.0.3?

But thanks mate. I will check it out later. [10:14] andreasno: I'm not sure how Thunderbird handles everything, but presumably there would be something in your ~/.mozilla-thunderbird folder? [10:15] Andorin: That doesn't mean it's not a hardware problem. Do you see any IO errors in dmesg? You can try zeroing out the partition table if you want but I don't think it will help. [10:15] what's question? [10:15] ok thanks.... after the grub screen, i get mod probe fatal - couldnot locate 2.6.35.22 generic /lib/modules/2.6.35.22 generic-pae/modules.dep: no such file or directory....but shortly afterwars - it boots?

[11:05] ok sure, i was going to do that for sure anyway, unless you have another idea, im about to start it now [11:05] in other words, make sure that the newly compiled kernel does not replace your current kernel or delete your current kernel version in the grub entires [11:05] Hi All, I'm having a issue with my Touchpad mouse. New to Linux, running XFCE on Xubuntu 10.10 [11:06] rapha: you could likely hack it so other users don't have any audio privs, then chance the login so they don't get audi privs added [11:06] not really lol, all the best [11:06] need a help [11:06] psycho_oreos oh ok cool thanks :) last time i installed a new kernel with dpkg -i on debian and it worked fine.. [11:07] but the grub entry did not work [11:07] spikebike: nah, didn't want to break audio privs for other users ... thanks though :] [11:07] !help > root [11:07] llutz_ spikebike : thanks a lot :D [11:07] ae86-drifter, I'd double check everything before rebooting, especially current kernel and the kernel is also listed in grub entries [11:07] I have problem with installation my phpmyadmin [11:08] @psycho... looks like my problem with mod probe fatal is a "bug" [11:08] where should I put my fqdn in /etc/host* or do I have to install bind9? [11:09] Jane_uk, yes, some person before actually pointed out the link to the bug but again its not causing a serious issue whereby your ubuntu setup doesn't boot.. it just causes lag [11:09] i have been told to edit a config file and set the devices to dep instead of most... it works but boot up is much longer.... thank u for your help [11:09] Jane_uk, no worries [11:09] spikebike: yup, that it did. Thank you kindly! [11:09] take care x [11:09] hidensoft: what command did you use to compile ? [11:10] how can I launch a program using terminal and then close the terminal without closing the program? [11:10] Roush_427r: nfi way nvidia systems lose complete color balance occasionally, only noticeable during video playback. I've always had nvidia-settings fix it. [11:10] & [11:10] uLinux: use nohup or screen [11:10] glebihan: cmake ../ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DUBUNTU_ICONS=OFF -DENABLE_DEBUG=OFF [11:10] llutz_: :) [11:10] uLinux: app& ctr-D [11:10] where should I put my fqdn in /etc/host* or do I have to install bind9? [11:11] glebihan: forget that my friend :) [11:11] Cojage: would you mind I ask you [11:11] wut [11:11] i trying to use another app [11:11] cant you just do eg: gedit & exit [11:11] hidensoft: ok [11:11] i think problem is from source [11:11] dont ask me [11:11] juk_, to achieve what? [11:11] coz i dont know what youre talking about lol [11:11] coz_, This is the weirdest thing: After removing everything from nvidia, rebooting, jockey didn't find the additional driver requirement. [11:11] hi all, i need to log a bug for the proprietary drivers install app failing to install broadcom drivers, what is the app I should be loggin the bug under? [11:11] i came here to ask if the nvidia drivers are fixed yet [11:11] cpf_, whoa ! [11:11] glebihan: thanks for your help && good luck [11:12] yeah psypher there are some issues with the properiety drivers install app [11:12] coz_, After which, I manually installed nvidia-current, nvidia-common, nvidia-whatever (some other nvidia things), rebooted, and we're at the same at the moment... [11:12] uLinux, just type the name of app with " & exit" after it [11:12] cpf_, oh this is not right for sure [11:12] cpf, it didnt work yet [11:12] ? [11:12] Cojage: no-no, nvidia yes Im using, fine, I wanted to about your internet connection specification [11:12] Cojage: like what? Is there already a bug I can follow? [11:12] hidensoft: you're welcome [11:12] Cojage, No, didn't. [11:12] Hi, i got some commands that i want to run on boot, where do i put these in 10.10? [11:12] cpf_, ok I would wait a bit... maybe the servers are really being pounded but I am not sure that even explains it [11:13] ae86-drifter: that opens and close the program [11:13] no [11:13] uLinux: command & disown [11:13] I guess there are some issues with 10.10 and nvidia drivers [11:13] Cojage: how are you connected to wan? [11:13] wan? [11:13] with an utp cable [11:13] Ejdesgaard: what kind of commands ? [11:13] what do you mean lol [11:13] Jordan_U: that worked :) [11:13] uLinux: what about command; exit [11:14] aliases for rdesktop [11:14] glebihan, aliases for rdesktop [11:14] glebihan, and cifs mounts [11:14] ae86-drifter: doesnt work if i close the window also closes the program :) [11:14] Cojage: just wondering some people having ip showed like me and some having @xx.xx.xx.xx [11:14] no problems here with 10.10 and nvidia driver [11:15] glebihan, the rdesktop aliases sould be systemwide and the cifs mounts sould be user specific. [11:15] oh ok gedit & exit worked for me, it closed the terminal tab while keeping gedit open [11:15] hi how do i delete my public key from a keyserver? [11:15] conky & disown [11:16] Ejdesgaard: for system-wide commands, you'll probably want to use /etc/rc.local [11:17] blue-frog: I have dyndns fqdn so I was wondering how do I make irssi to see it [11:17] hello [11:17] cousin_mario: hi [11:17] how do I change the gdm background image on 10.10 without using gdm2setup? [11:17] cousin_mario: how did you connect to this channel? [11:18] juk_: er you'd need reverse, which needs cooperation from who you have an ip with [11:18] juk_: /join #ubuntu ? [11:18] another issue: i can connect to my other pc via lan but if I open Network in Nautilus nothing shows up. [11:18] cousin_mario: I mean irc client network specifics [11:19] juk_: it's saved in the client, wait a moment please [11:19] Hello. I've done a 10.04 netbook distro update. After restarting, I get the wallpaper background, but nothing else. How can I fix it? [11:19] levu: You can't delete a GPG/PGP key that has been uploaded. However, you can revoke that key, by generating a revocation certificate, and uploading that to the server. [11:19] spikebike: so I can make it just by putting string in some /etc/ or binds right? [11:19] juk_: irc.freenode.net port 7000 with SSL [11:19] spikebike: I meant I can NOT [11:19] juk_: why? [11:19] Hmmm, metacity's focus stealing prevention has gone too far... *nothing* that gets launched ever gets focus now, it's really quite irritating... anybody else having this problem? [11:19] timfrost: so is there a possibility to revoke just one UID from that key? [11:20] juk_, don't know [11:21] cousin_mario: what clien Xchat? [11:21] juk_: irssi [11:21] juk_: just what is it you'd like to know? [11:21] levu: If you want to remove a UID, edit the local copy to remove the UID, then upload the updated key to the servers. [11:21] cousin_mario: ok, where did you get that string from? [11:22] juk_: what string? [11:22] glebihan, okay, and for local? [11:22] <_ramo> Hi === cs278|| is now known as cs278 [11:22] when im pinging using terminal i can use ctrl+z or ctrl+c to stop running. there is no difference between? [11:22] cousin_mario: I'd like to know why you have @some.net and me @ip [11:22] timfrost: how do i do this? i tried it but the server kept the old version [11:23] juk_: because freenode can't find the PTR for your particular IP [11:23] juk_: ask your ISP about it [11:23] why are the repositories updated so slowly even for big programs like NetBeans? [11:23] uLinux: ctrl-z stops it, it doesn't close. use ctrl-c [11:23] cousin_mario: yeah that what I was told [11:23] llutz_: k ty [11:23] Ejdesgaard: well you may use a script that you'll put in your startup apps, or add the commands to your ~/.profile [11:23] juk_: my dns can't reverse resolve it either if that's any consolation [11:24] cousin_mario: thanks in advance [11:25] why are the repositories updated so slowly even for big programs like NetBeans? [11:25] timfrost: i revoked that single uid, that was the only thing i could do [11:25] Hi, has anyone got a direct link to x86 Ubuntu 10.10 desktop iso on a UK mirror? Firefox keeps on crashing when trying to download from ubuntu.com so I want to use wget instead. [11:26] glebihan, i have tried to add it to ~/.profile but nothing happends... [11:27] Ejdesgaard: do you use a desktop or server edition ? [11:27] whitman use ftp or bittorrent [11:27] hi there, good morning, [11:27] ae86-drifter, got it, thanks [11:27] could anyone let me know how to share my pc's vpn connection with all my other ubuntu pc's?

[11:28] !ask BichoGRILO [11:29] on my screen appear small black dots on the horizontal [11:29] blue-frog: is `hostname` and `hostname --fqdn` should be same [11:29] i have downloaded MM 10.10 [11:29] i use gnome-2.32 desktop interface [11:29] and it appears in my screen [11:29] many dashes on horizontal [11:29] levu, that is right. Have you published the updated key after revoking the UID? [11:29] small dashes [11:29] Ejdesgaard: ok in this case, adding a script to your startup apps in probably the best way [11:29] <_ramo> if i'm installing apach2 on ubuntu 10.04, why am i getting noch /srv/www/htdocs folder? [11:29] juk_, it all depends if you ahve a fqdn in hostname [11:30] glebihan, okay... [11:30] small lines that appear and disappear, [11:30] juk_, if you don't then the result is the same [11:30] blue-frog: what is ahve [11:30] timfrost: yes i did, on the server it's updated, but is there no possibility to completely /delete/ an UID on the server? [11:30] have [11:30] wait a minute, i'll make a print here, and show [11:30] I made an iso using remastersys and when I try and boot it I get that it is dowloading /casper/vmlinuz but then : can not find ramdisk image: /casper/initrd.gz - what have I done wrong [11:30] _ramo: why would you? afiak the default apache folder is /var/www/ [11:30] ok? === andred is now known as |MB| [11:31] <_ramo> yofel: okay, on suse it is /srv/www/htdocs... i thought this would be the folder [11:31] blue-frog: so how I check if I have fqdn in hostname? [11:31] <_ramo> thanks, i'll have look [11:31] !hostname [11:31] Use hostname to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. [11:31] <_ramo> yofel: is that the default document root? [11:32] juk_, cat /etc/hostname [11:32] it not appears on print [11:32] blue-frog: shilka [11:32] _ramo: I think yes, haven't used apache in a while though [11:32] levu: no. I have a key on the servers which has several email addresses that have not been valid for 5 years. The servers show that email address as revoked, but they won't delete it because that email address is part of the history of the GPG key. [11:32] the config files in /etc/apache2/ should give more information [11:32] yofel: can i send to u? [11:33] Hello. I've done a 10.04 netbook distro update. After restarting, I get the wallpaper background, but nothing else. How can I fix it? [11:33] how to install libnetutil/libnetutil.a ? [11:33] blue-frog: so what it tells us [11:33] timfrost: hmm, ok, is the key still on the server if i completely revoke it? [11:33] make: *** No rule to make target `libnetutil/libnetutil.a', needed by `nmap'. Stop. [11:33] help [11:33] BichoGRILO: if it's a graphics issue a screenshot might not show and I don't know much about graphics issues [11:34] why are the repositories updated so slowly even for big programs like NetBeans? [11:34] juk_, then for your system as it is hostanme and hostanme -f are the same [11:34] flames: why are you compiling nmap? [11:34] flames: isn't it in the repositories? [11:34] could anyone let me know how to share my pc's vpn connection with all my other ubuntu pc's? [11:34] some i deas? [11:34] blue-frog: but how I make them different [11:34] ideas* [11:34] because im compiling new version of NMAP [11:34] Migi32: packaging such huge applications is a lot of work, so they are usually only updated once every release [11:35] levu: yes. The servers have to keep enough information about a revoked key to allow users/applications to learn that the key has been revoked. [11:35] nmap-5.35DC1 [11:35] i need to learn how to compile [11:35] Migi32: if you need more details you could ask in #ubuntu-motu [11:35] flames: apt-get build-dep npam [11:35] yofel, you mean once per release of ubuntu? [11:35] timfrost: for how many years? forever? [11:35] Migi32: right [11:35] yofel, I had no idea it was that much workµ [11:35] can i use openGL thru X11 forwarding [11:36] levu: yes. [11:36] timfrost: i worry because the email address of the revoked uid is still valid and can be found by search engines. I hope there won't come too much spam... [11:36] Hello. If reiserfsck finds a "bad_leaf" (corrupted item), do I have to re-run it with "--rebuild-tree"? [11:36] thanks JUK :) [11:36] hi, i installed ubuntu 10.10(32bit) from a usb-flash-device, but was wondering what why i get this message: "modprobe: fatal: could not load /lib/modules/2.6.35-22-generic-pae" ? [11:37] Migi32: well, it differs, but you also need to find a balance between the need to update it and the amount of maintainers we have, and netbeans was updated less than 2 months ago [11:38] uLinux: cd to the folder, type make; sudo make install [11:38] flames: happy hacking [11:38] sometimes it's configure; make; sudo make install [11:38] * ./configure [11:38] JUNK :) [11:38] !compile > uLinux [11:38] uLinux, please see my private message [11:38] !checkinstall > uLinux [11:39] JUK_ share about UBUNTU for Pentest :) [11:39] Nice [11:39] has anyone got deluge working with X11 forwarding over SSH [11:39] flames: what?

I can hook up the new drive via usb adapter. [11:40] hello all, Just a question: I've just deleted a file with shift+del, but it was a fail, can I recover it? [11:40] flames: sorry english bad [11:40] Copy the partition with the live partition manager [11:40] flames: install metasploit, done [11:40] flames: oh penetration test [11:40] android123: was that directed at me? [11:41] could anyone let me know how to share my pc's vpn connection with all my other ubuntu pc's? [11:41] as simple as that? [11:41] flames: I wouldn't know [11:41] Easy as abc [11:41] android123: excellent.. so much easier than ghost et al.. cheers [11:41] metasploit ready install [11:41] flames: you should use #backtrack, not #ubuntu [11:42] hi guys [11:42] im triple boot win7 - backtrack4 rc1 - ubuntu 10.10 :D [11:42] levu: spammers (or at least the email address harvesters) will have captured that email address within days of the key having been published, so the revocation won't prevent that :( [11:42] i have just installed ubuntu 10.10 [11:43] what's the channel for ubuntu 10.10? [11:43] flames: I didn't find anything scary in nmap apart dragon head when make and telling that my roommy runs dos and skype [11:43] Hi there, I am wondering if I should install UDE or UNE on my laptop. [11:43] and i have realized that the pointer of the mouse loads the thing that is on [11:43] Lollipop56 one would not know without the specs of ur lappy [11:44] I have a problem with my HD (with Ubuntu 10.10 on it). I tested it from a live-CD and reiserfsck gives this error: "bad_directory_item: block ...; The directory item ... has a not properly hashed entry" and "bad_leaf_block ... The corrupted item found ...". Can somebody tell me how I can fix that? [11:44] can i deactivate it [11:44] ae86-drifter, 1.8GHz, 1GB RAM, 120GB HDD, ATI Radeon or w/e it has [11:45] Lollipop56: i would use UDE, why not? [11:45] if I want to change my username during install and then mount my current username-folder I just need to rename it? [11:45] juk_ :) what make U for scary ?? [11:45] ae86-drifter, I am doubting because I don't know if UDE will run fast enough [11:45] i have a wierd problem. the text is shown as wierd symbols in some applications. i'm using ubuntu 10.04. This problem occurs with vlc, open office, sun virtualbox, etc [11:45] I created an iso with remastersys but when I try and use it it loads the vmlinuz but then fails if I try check, live, etc - with the message could not find ramdisk image ... [11:45] any clues [11:46] Lollipop56: with that configuration, it should be ok, as long as you don't enable compiz [11:46] no one knows about the problem of the pointer [11:46] flames: you again using metaphoras I told engllish is bad [11:46] glebihan, ok, so that means Desktop effects to None right? [11:46] *if I change my username during install and then mount my current username-folder I just rename old-username-folder? [11:46] Lollipop56: yes [11:46] glebihan: What's wrong with enabling compiz? [11:46] I mean Visual Effects to None* [11:47] like newuser and then rename olduser to newuser [11:47] sorry about my bad engglish [11:47] soreau: I think he's got too few RAM for compiz to work properly [11:47] in case UDE won't be fast enough, and I have to switch to UNE, can the dock use autohide? [11:47] Lollipop56: Yes, that should make metacity the default [11:47] glebihan: He said 1GB.... [11:47] why can't my computer load /lib/modules/2.6.35-22-generic-pae? [11:47] soreau, so Normal and Extra are 2 Compiz versions? [11:47] i have a wierd problem. the text is shown as wierd symbols in some applications. i'm using ubuntu 10.04.

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [11:48] glebihan: compiz only needs 64MB of vram to run and can run on less. For system ram, even 512mb is plenty [11:48] soreau: well I've never been able to run compiz until I got 2GB [11:49] ok ok [11:49] glebihan: Then you were doing something very wrong [11:49] anyone knows a temprory image uplaoding site? pastebin for text only [11:49] soreau: with a fresh install ?

Or is it just me? [11:53] Lollipop56: Your OS is only as fast as your hardware/computer [11:53] therin: alt + print for a window :) [11:53] Lollipop56: Try Xubuntu then [11:53] Lollipop56: theming is a matter of prefernce [11:53] preference* [11:53] Lollipop56: gnome will run awesome with those specs [11:53] <|MB|> ubuntu here is sluggish today and i def have no slow hardware [11:53] hello. is it recommended to do? sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local [11:53] soreau, I beg to differ, Vista was superslow compared to Linux [11:53] sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local [11:53] uLinux: http://imagebin.org/117983 [11:53] ups [11:53] bahamas: no [11:54] ok, tyvm for helping guys [11:54] problem with my pointer!it loads(automatic click) [11:54] oh darn, I forgot 1 more thing [11:54] how to recover deleted files from ubuntu? my fs is ext3 [11:54] Lollipop56: Of course bloat will make everything slower [11:54] !undelete > vaibhav [11:54] vaibhav, please see my private message [11:54] erUSUL: what should i do then? i want to install npm, a package manager for node, and the guys says that i should do that [11:54] *guy [11:54] Lollipop56: But the speed starts with the hardware and drivers [11:54] bahamas: it is not in the repos? [11:55] the Hardware Drivers will prompt me with a wifi driver, should I pick the opensource or the closed one?

[12:52] Hi all :) I've got a little problem with setting up dual monitors.. I've got my laptop on the left and my main display on the right. Everything works except for the fact that my laptop screen's the main desktop/display and I can't seem to figure out in the ATI Catalyst Control Center how to make my second monitor my main display. If you understand [12:52] hmm... I wonder if there's a way to tell which version of Dropbox you have running, from the command line. Can you do something like that with dpkg? (since it was installed from a .deb file) [12:52] _ramo: nope sorry [12:53] erUSUL, No. Cups works fine with the printer. But, not when I want to cancel the existing printing job. [12:53] m0sand: I think main display is always on the "host" coputer [12:53] computer [12:53] hmm... dpkg -l only lists nautilus-dropbox [12:54] JigSaw-2: maybe asking in the cups channel ? === mekwall is now known as hidingfromsean === hidingfromsean is now known as mekwall [12:54] Hi [12:55] Hey, I was wondering if anyone has successfully run World of Warcraft in Ubuntu 10.10 [12:55] someone help please.... how do you get the hibernate option back in the Power options menu?

[13:02] pastebin.com or something [13:02] sure [13:02] Folks, I've installed ubuntu maverick on USB stick on Intel Atom and it works like a charm, then I tried on my wife's laptop with Intel GPU, works great. However, I've plugged stick in my sons laptop with nVidia gpu and it works very slowly. My question is, is there universal xorg.conf configuration wich will work on all GPUs? Thx [13:02] what can be doing with modem to connect? [13:03] Sterist: it should be there, check that your swap partition is as large as or larger than your physical ram [13:03] Milosz http://paste.ubuntu.com/510833/ [13:03] erUSUL, doesn't give any info :( === cs278|| is now known as cs278^kinslayer [13:03] ashiswin, does the card show up in ifconfig now? [13:03] nope milosz [13:03] Clearly my Ipod nano 3g is not going to work with Linux from what i can see - So this only leaves one solution - which is the best portable music player to use? [13:03] ashiswin, and with "ifconfig -a"? [13:03] sveri: the other thing I wonder about is the $ on your run line... since you already declared, and exported the ECLIPSE_HOME var in the previous line, I don't think you need the $ on that line... [13:04] It does Milosz [13:04] ok then try ifconfig up [13:04] bluematt suspend and hibernate have gone MIA from the Action Button on panel. swap is 3.3gb, ram is 2.9gb. any ideas? [13:04] what do i put for card milosz [13:04] ashiswin, whatever showed up as name in ifconfig [13:04] SuperLag: possibly, but like i already said, calling eclipse directly from the program menu doesnt work either [13:04] wlan0 or eth1 or something [13:04] Milosz, SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not possible due to RF-kill [13:04] ashiswin, try toggling your hardware wlan switch [13:05] uhm what do I use for a torrent program.. transmission seems to be uninstalled and uninstallabl [13:05] bluematt can't find anything about it on google [13:05] was it maybe off all the time? [13:05] transmission : Depends: transmission-gtk (>= 2.04-1~getdeb1) but it is not going to be installed [13:05] Milosz, still not working [13:05] E: Broken packages [13:05] cr*p [13:05] i have the same proble [13:05] m [13:05] with a different card [13:05] Sterist: no sorry, its there for me, it should work for anyone with swap >= ram [13:05] TiK, thats something i will probably see alot of soon [13:05] well there is an orange light, but that means its on but disabled [13:05] ashiswin, ok here is something you can try [13:05] sure [13:05] ashiswin, as root, start "hald" [13:05] no output [13:06] ae86-drifter: I noticed it being "removed" in the last update [13:06] then start gnome-device-manager [13:06] locate the card [13:06] its not installed Milosz [13:06] or wait [13:06] do i install? [13:06] there is an rfkill tool [13:06] hold on a second [13:06] sure [13:06] ashiswin, try as root "rfkill unblock" [13:06] err [13:07] ashiswin, try rfkill list see if its blocked [13:07] TiK, imo transmission sux [13:07] rfkill unblock [13:07] ashiswin, ^ [13:07] ok [13:07] Hello people. I have a problem with an upgraded 10.10 system: VLANs are not working anymore. I see the tagged traffic going out and in on the physical interface but nothing comes in in the VLAN interface (but the outgoing traffic is working well). Any idea ? [13:07] ae86-drifter: whats a good alternative? [13:07] Windows is so better than Ubuntu [13:07] Milosz it says hp-wifi is soft blocked [13:07] i cant install ubuntu 10.10 [13:07] sometimes aptitude resolves dependencies better i have found [13:07] boot loader will not install? [13:08] TiK, deluge is nice [13:08] ashiswin, and if you try "rfkill unblock "? [13:08] Milosz, Bogus unblock argument 'hp-wifi' [13:08] ashiswin, that's the name that showed up in ifconfig? [13:08] ashiswin, its 0,1 not card. Its the number of the card [13:08] no [13:08] Zliq_mishokk: I fail to see how, but you may have your reasons. Please don't start a flamewar. [13:08] ah [13:08] wlan0 dives the same thing [13:08] ok so rfkill unblock 0 [13:09] yea [13:09] juz did that [13:09] no output [13:09] YESS!!! [13:09] !best | Zliq_mishokk [13:09] ashiswin: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [13:09] Zliq_mishokk: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [13:09] Thanks so much Milosz [13:09] lol [13:09] yeah Dink too :P [13:09] you're welcome [13:10] ^ [13:10] I had the same issue the other day. [13:10] i can't get my card to work [13:10] i just have to send the laptop in to HP [13:10] well it's just better [13:10] anyone use nvidia 8800gtx in ubuntu 10.10 [13:10] that's why the most ppl use it [13:10] Zliq_mishokk, offtopic here [13:11] most people are retarded [13:11] why should they use other OS if there's better one [13:11] i have 3 computers joined in an adhoc network but i cant seem to ping them, any ideas? [13:11] and free.. [13:11] Zliq_mishokk, I'd suggest #ubuntu-offtopic or ##windows ; this is wrong channel for it [13:11] Milosz, is there anyway I can repay the favour? [13:11] I'm just saying xD [13:11] Zliq_mishokk, just say elsewhere [13:11] that windows is better? [13:12] Zliq_mishokk: go away [13:12] guys in ubuntu 10.10, has anyone installed virtualbox non ose? does it work smoothly. Apparently in the beta version it was giving a kernel problem [13:12] ashiswin, hah you could make my card work lol [13:12] what [13:12] Its the same problem right Milosz, why don't u try that too :D [13:12] ashiswin_, well it doesn't work [13:12] My mail icon does not go green when I get a new mail in evolution. please help [13:12] the card is already disabled by the BIOS [13:13] oh >.< I hope u get it working soon Milosz [13:13] when i sent the computer to hibernate, that's when everything went to hell [13:13] try reinstallin ubuntu then? [13:13] dang [13:13] the card never "woke up" again [13:13] i suspect it's in permanent low-power mode [13:13] why dont u change the bios settings [13:13] '~$ cat /proc/cmdline; root=UUID=7b2db282-52a4-4a4b-b1db-032334575de7 ro vga=0x0361.' What does »ro« effect? [13:13] and nothing can make it work again somehow [13:13] ashiswin_, I can't, there are no settings for it [13:13] all I get is an error message from the BIOS [13:13] oh [13:13] umm [13:13] luftikuss: ro = read-only [13:13] i need to send this netbook back in to HP [13:14] ashiswin_, it's a netbook, the BIOS (or maybe it's even UEFI) is fairly minimal [13:14] now I'm using an external wifi adapter as a stop-gap measure [13:14] Milosz, is it an Acer ?

Does anybody know what is wrong with ubiquity when i get the message "An attempt to configure apt to install additional packages from the cd failed"? [13:15] Then it crashes... [13:15] can anyone tell me for sake what should i put in /etc/hostname computer name or domain name [13:15] my wireless card cannot associate to AP, how to manually fix this? thanks [13:15] hi, after upgrading to 10.10 64bit mediatomb seems to segfault all the time now, anyone else notice any problems? [13:15] xrfang, are you configuring it manually or via network-manager? [13:16] sveri: if you go into the directory where the eclipse binary is... and do ./eclipse to run it... what happens? [13:16] juk, neither, thats where the hostname goes [13:16] FyreFoX, have you tried a fresh config.xml ? [13:17] Milosz: after upgrade to kubuntu 10.10, network manager disappeared, I have to do that manually before I can download anything [13:17] ae86-drifter: what is hostname? [13:17] Dink: Naww. I should do that I guess. [13:17] hoosierpeschke: I know that ro stands for "read only". But I did not ask for what "ro" stands. I asked what it effects. [13:17] juk, normally the name of your computer [13:17] What happens when the disk runs out of space during dist-upgrade? Is that even possible or would the upgrade manager have noticed that? Does it remove installed .deb files after they're installed when disk space is needed or only after all packages are installed? [13:17] HI. I want to get a mail that actually is on the webmail site, with Evolution. Pop seems ok, smtp too, login seems good, and Evolution doesn't ask me any password and there is no error... An idea ? :/ [13:17] hello. I want to download all images on a "wallpapers site" wich is over 100KB on my pc. How can i get these with "wget"? [13:17] xrfang, you will have a hell of a time getting WPA to work manually [13:17] xrfang: I would *highly* recommend wicd over "Network Manager" [13:18] ae86-drifter: computer name, I asked computer name or domain name and you said neither :/ [13:18] xrfang: it's just less of a hassle, in my opinion [13:18] if it is part of a domain it would be hostname.domainname.com [13:18] or something along those lines [13:18] Milosz: I have switched off ANY encryption on my home ap. Do I still need wpa? [13:18] SuperLag, I cannot download anything I don't think wicd is installed by default, but I will check it over now === tommy is now known as Guest3577 [13:18] testi_: just make sure you have enough space :) [13:19] Hi! Does anybody know what is wrong with ubiquity when i get the message "An attempt to configure apt to install additional packages from the cd failed"? [13:19] xrfang: do you have a wired connection you can use, in the meantime? [13:19] juk, thats right, i said its hostname, and i said usually [13:19] SuperLag, no, that is the proble. I am now using a windows machine to talk [13:19] my mail icon does not go green when I get a new mail in evolution. can anyone help? [13:20] how can i change the default background such as when you go to login? [13:20] ae86-drifter: ok assume I have tank.domain.org fqdn and my computer name is tank what would be then in that case I put in to make thing proper [13:20] erUSUL, so the upgrade manager does nothing of the above? [13:20] Hi, i can't get ubuntu to start, i keep getting Console: Switching to colour frame buffer device 128x48, it started after i tried to update to 10.10. [13:20] hi...is there a way to import working drivers from a previous kernel to a newer one? [13:21] testi_: no afaik; and even after the upgrade is finished you probably have to run apt-get clean manually .... [13:21] gtm: no; you have to recompile them if you builded from source [13:21] gtm when u compile the new one they should do it automatically [13:21] Hi there. I want to install Ubuntu 10.10 along side Linux Mint 8. Is it possible to do this and possibly later, remove either partition? (Because I don't know which distro is best for me, so I want to test) [13:21] hello. Suppose i want to download all images from a "wallpapers" site wich each file is >= 100KB and save them on my pc. How can i do this with "wget"? [13:22] luftikuss: woops, sorry, that's the kernel command line, it mounts the root device as read-only on boot [13:22] erUSUL: can you help, one says it's domain name another computer another hostname what should be in there? [13:22] erUSUL i say this because my webcam works only with kernel 2.6.19 or lower....

[13:23] hoosierpeschke: Thank you very much for your help. [13:23] erUSUL, actually i don't think i can make sure it has enough space, because the root dir only contains data created by the package manager (except /etc) and since the package manager is currently running i can't do anything? I'm running the upgrade 10.04 to 10.10 using the "Aktualisierungsverwaltung" application. [13:23] erUSUL in few words...it works only with jaunty... but no karmic, intrepid, lucid, maverick...

[13:58] where ca I get support for dejadup ? [13:58] jetienne: you can always use '!info ' when quering the bot [13:58] WXZ, maybe .local/share/applications/mimeapps.list ? [13:58] I thought it was something like /etc/init [13:58] etc [13:58] b0ot: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules [13:58] ? [13:58] WXZ, ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list [13:58] yofel: oh cool. i wasnt aware of that [13:58] erUSUL, you are my hero [13:58] hello [13:58] thanks icarus-c [13:58] WXZ, and maybe some gconf too [13:58] is there anybody good in devilspie? [13:58] b0ot: ;P [13:58] girl [13:59] Kheops, what software you use to access ext3 on windows [13:59] ok thanks i'll do that [13:59] any body with practical devilspie configuration? [13:59] hi..any chance of getting the lucid kernel to install in maverick? [13:59] icarus-c: what software you will recomand me to use. [13:59] yeap [13:59] i'm having problems with something [13:59] maverick got a new kernel? [14:00] ciao [14:00] Kheops, i recommend stick to FAT/ NTFS to share with Windows [14:00] !list [14:00] yeah, that looks like it [14:00] This is not a file sharing channel (or network); be sure to read the channel topic. If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot » [14:00] Kheops: you need to install some sort of app in windows to read ext3 === dave is now known as Guest27162 [14:00] histo: tell me witch one. [14:00] I have upgrade ubuntu 10.04 to ubuntu 10.10 and I can't install programs in sofware center (Failed to fetch http://hr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/s/stellarium/stellarium-data_0.10.5-0ubuntu1_all.deb 502 Proxy Error) [14:01] Kheops: I have no idea I don't use windows [14:01] Kheops, but anyway, i've used ext2ifs to read ext3 on Windows before. it works but come with limitations and it feels nasty [14:01] Kheops: perhaps google or #windows [14:01] Kheops: http://linuxhelp.blogspot.com/2007/03/mount-ext2-or-ext3-partition-in-windows.html [14:01] Kheops: you're asking in Ubuntu support [14:01] anyone know about folding@home on ubuntu? [14:01] Guest27162: yes [14:01] Guest27162, what about it [14:01] folding? [14:01] folding@home? [14:01] Guest27162: you mean boinc? [14:01] Hi all, I've just installed 10.10 and, after installing chromium-daily, chromium will crash without any error just when I open a new website [14:01] gotta be something like seti@home [14:01] like BONIC? [14:02] zhengshi: yes [14:02] does anyonwe have a clue on this? [14:02] I am sorry.. [14:02] is there a chat where i can ask why i cant access php.ini file in xampp on ubuntu?? [14:02] zhengshi, yes. distributed computing [14:02] does anyone know how to integrate Thunderbird in the communications menu [14:02] ?? [14:02] The-Jag: use firefox [14:02] Guest27162: if that's what you're asking, we do have boinc boinc-client and boinc-manager in the repository [14:02] The-Jag: sounds like a bug [14:02] inoob_: maybe there is a xampp chanel in freenode ... [14:02] where is the dejadup IRC channel ? [14:02] I cant get it to run, i used finstall and it didnt produce any error msgs but when I enter ./folding start - it comes up with a FAILURE msg [14:03] inoob_: ##XAMPP [14:03] The-Jag, run chromium in command line, see if it throws some messages when it crash [14:03] uLinux: I'd like chromium the most, and I'd like to stick with it if possible [14:03] php.ini is mostle located in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini [14:03] kk ty [14:03] Hello again here. [14:03] icarus-c: I'll try now [14:03] inoob_: no this isn't it [14:03] icarus-c: Yes I have installed ext2ifs..I saw the partition but only that. After they disappear. And then I unistall the program. [14:03] nah i tried using chown and chmod [14:03] yofel, folding@home is not boinc... [14:03] but it wont display it [14:03] The-Jag: i use daily in lucid its been rock solid for a while.... but it is a daily updated ppa with sanpshot of current development its bound to be buggy === cs278|| is now known as cs278^kinslayer [14:03] inoob_: rather #apachefriends [14:03] or do folding@home has migrated to boinc ? :-o [14:04] hell yeah! it is Christopher Columbus day! [14:04] ty glebihan [14:04] inoob_: yw [14:04] erUSUL: I know but since the upgrade it's became messy [14:04] Guest27162: what exactly are you trying to do with folding@home ? VDPAU? [14:04] Kheops, hope you have read ext2ifs ' FAQ before you format ext3, ext2ifs can only handle inode size of 128 [14:04] Kheops, while mkfs.ext3 default to 256 [14:04] I'm almost there : The problem I have, are : My dual head isn't working (the display configuration tools shows me two screen, but one of them is buggy). I don't know which radeon drivers I'm using : How can I figure that out ? Too, glxgears and glxinfos segfaults. [14:04] run it on all 4 cores [14:05] Guest27162, just run it... [14:05] Howdy all [14:05] Guest27162, consult their manual or ask their support. not ubuntu question [14:05] icarus-c: ok, the problem seems related to libmoon: Attempting to load libmoonloaderxpi [14:05] Attempting to load the system libmoon [14:05] Segmentation fault [14:05] Guest27162: there are folding clients that will use all cores. I'm pretty sure there was one in the repos when I was folding. I struggled with getting it to run on my GPU but got it working eventually. [14:06] <_kafka> i used 8.04LTS up until few days ago, made fresh install for 10.04 LTS, since then everything works weird, saidar says my memory usage is like between 95-99%, many things suddenly drop down in performances [14:06] The-Jag, time to google libmoonloaderxpi [14:06] icarus-c: ah IC, wrong assumption, sorry [14:06] <_kafka> i dont run many processes [14:06] that's moonlight plugin ... uninstall it ? [14:06] yeah i'll try do uninstall [14:06] forum has no replieds im jus waiting [14:06] The-Jag, does chromium stable work? you should expect of sort of study crash with chromium daily [14:06] yes icarus-c 256 [14:07] so I must use mkfs.ext3 ? [14:07] never had crash with daily :) [14:07] but anyway, seems a conflict for ibmoon [14:07] Kheops, wt? you can only format ext3 with mkfs.ext3 [14:07] icarus-c: I don't want to format..because I have data on there.. [14:07] icarus-c: that's the point :) === root is now known as Guest88275 === boscop_ is now known as boscop [14:08] Kheops, that's why you should rtfm and plan ahead before doing anything. so now you have to search for windows driver/program that can access ext3. ext2ifs is not an option [14:08] again, that is not ubuntu question [14:09] icarus-c: I see...but my question Is, what I must do In Linux to assure everything will work on Windows [14:09] ? [14:09] Kheops, what?.... [14:09] :) [14:09] AH GOT IT! new 10.10 installed ITS moonlight which interfered with chromium one [14:10] Kheops: then I wouldn't use ext3 if you want everything to work in windows === pooky_ is now known as pooky [14:10] icarus-c: What I must do in Linux to have access In Windows [14:10] Kheops, eh.. well you must create(format) a ext3 file system with mkfs . windows doesn't support that and haven't heard of any windows program that can format ext3 [14:10] is there a way I can view *WHAT* aptitude did to install a package? for example I just installed linux-source-2.6.31 and have no idea idea where this source code went [14:10] Kheops, why is linux involved.. [14:10] histo: ok I must unjournal the ext3 ? [14:10] How to upgrade from Lucid to Maverick cli ? [14:10] lwerdna: dpkg -L linux-source-2.6.31 [14:10] can I install Ubuntu withou real name? [14:10] this is by far, best upgrade procedure I have seen with ubuntu, have yet to find flaw in upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10... [14:10] Kheops: whether it will work does not depend on what you'll do under Linux, you just have to find a Windows software capable of handling ext3 [14:10] erUSUL: thanks, trying... [14:11] !upgrade | zayr [14:11] zayr: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [14:11] Kheops: windows doesn't support ext3 natively [14:11] Hi, I'm using ubuntu 10.04 LTS. when u open a program like firefox and this xchat u will get to the progrom GUI and there is a title bar on top and menu bar below it. My question is how to meke this program minimize under the title bar? [14:11] kheops windows cannot view linux on its own it needs software... ms also has to be installed before you can install linux [14:11] GODS [14:11] ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso 42.4 kB/s - 29.9 MB of 693 MB, 4 hours left <- not fast M [14:11] skumara, you mean shade? [14:11] did it changed from sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ? [14:11] unless you have it on a seperate partition [14:11] histo: I know, but I must make ext2 to assure that will work ? [14:11] zayr: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade never worked [14:11] inoob_: you can install windows after but its a pita [14:12] erUSUL: bsht it worked [14:12] zayr: sudo do-release-upgrade [14:12] inoob_: I installed ms after the linux :) [14:12] icarus-c, yes. thats the word. shade [14:12] because I like Linux :P [14:12] from your usage, does chromium use more RAM than FF? [14:12] I dindt type real name and it's installing. [14:12] Kheops: NO, You need software in windows to support anything other than NTFS or FAT === SKAN is now known as skan2 [14:12] zayr, no it didnt , watch the language [14:12] zayr: not by itself. you have to edit sources by hand. [14:12] oops... ubuntu 10.10 freezes on recovery mode as well, impossible to open kern.log ! [14:12] how to enable shade in ubuntu? [14:12] zayr: and that's an unsuported way of upgrading. the update-mager does a better job [14:12] ms refuses to recognise any other entity other than itself...kinda arrogant aint it lol [14:13] Kheops: You aren't really being clear on what you are trying to accomplish. You're talking about formating but said it's already set up etc... [14:13] skumara, well, you need to bind a key/mouse action that do shade [14:13] skumara, like middle click [14:13] histo: It's an good option to make the ext3 as ext2 ? === skan2 is now known as SKAN [14:13] histo: no.. [14:13] greetings! just installed 10.10 on a virtualbox vm and trying to install ruby 1.9.2 from source. last few ubuntus I used `$ sudo apt-get build-dep ruby1.9` for some deps, which now just gives an "E: Unable to find a source package for ruby1.9". so, what changes have been made regarding this and what do I do now? [14:13] histo: I never mentioned Formating. [14:13] Kheops: so what is the question then? [14:13] skumara, for example : "gconftool-2 --set --type string /apps/metacity/general/action_middle_click_titlebar toggle_shade" [14:14] Kheops: and what are you ultimately trying to accomplish [14:14] histo: All I need to know Is what I must do in Linux to have access more quikly and safety to ext3 partitions in Windows. [14:14] skumara, that will make middle mouse click to shade the window [14:14] histo: k ? [14:14] tbuehlmann: it's now ruby1.9.1 [14:14] Kheops: You don't have to do anything in linux. [14:14] icarus-c, thanks man.. [14:14] histo: no ext3 to ext2 ? [14:14] Kheops: why do you need to access linux files from windows? just don't . i for wouldn't let windows touch my important data with a ten foot pole and even less so with a third party god knowsw how bad filesystem driver [14:14] Kheops: the problem lies in windows. You will need software to read the ext3 partition [14:14] skumara, or change /apps/metacity/window_keybindings/toggle_shaded instead for keyboard shortcut === SKAN is now known as skan2 === skan2 is now known as SKAN [14:15] hello [14:15] glebihan, perfect. thanks! [14:15] hi [14:15] erUSUL: There are not file sistem.. [14:15] ok [14:15] tbuehlmann: you're welcome [14:15] erUSUL: Only a FTP big partition about 800 GB :)) [14:15] erUSUL: k ? [14:15] erUSUL: I have added shilka.dyndns.org in /etc/hosts along with localhost.localdomain localhost shilka and now I get desirable output [14:15] Kheops: the safest way would be passing the physical hard drive to a linux virtual machine and sharing it via SMB/CIFS [14:16] Kheops, did i suggest you to use NTFS if you want to share file between linux & windows? [14:16] * icarus-c starts to remember who Kheops is :P [14:16] icarus-c: I need to share files between Windows and Linux :P [14:16] Kheops: so what are you actually asking? how to set up a ftp server? you are not making much sense [14:16] Kheops: why not just make the ftp partition NTFS then you don't have to worry about anythhing in windows or linux [14:17] does anyone know if it is possible to install the new sound menu from 10.10 in 10.09? [14:17] Kheops, i must have told you that linux support NTFS way better than windows support of any linux file system :P [14:17] histo: It's ext3..not NTFS [14:17] Kheops: then you need to install software in windows to read an ext3 partition. [14:17] icarus-c and histo I can make an ext3 NTFS ? :)) [14:17] does anyone know how to move nautilus's view settings? [14:18] * histo laps forhead [14:18] Kheops: You would need special software to read an ext3 partition in Windows, it's not natively supported [14:18] s/laps/slaps [14:18] sedulous: It's a long way..to do that. [14:18] Is there a UNE channel? [14:18] prower: witch one ? :) [14:18] WXZ, gconf [14:18] I was wondering if anyone knows the name of the program that needs to be run to create the sound menu. It's missing after an upgrade from 9.04. [14:18] Kheops: Just google read ext3 windows or ask in #windows. Your question has nothing to do with linux or ubuntu [14:18] how can i install inksacpe 0.47 on ubuntu 10.10? [14:18] histo: hmmm It is because It's an ext3 partition. [14:19] how can i install inkscape 0.47 on ubuntu 10.10? [14:19] Kheops: I'm not sure to be honest, I've never had to do it...I'm sure if you searched around something would come up though, I'm just not much of a Windows person sorry [14:19] WXZ, so.. maybe copy ~/.gconf/apps/nautilus [14:19] david_christians: what is a sound menu? [14:19] thanks again icarus-c [14:19] Kheops: NO [14:19] yeah, that's what I'm doing [14:19] Cube``, apt-get install inkscape ? [14:19] Cube``: Is there something wrong with the version thats in the 10.10 repositories? [14:19] histo: Don't be rude, I have Linux and Windows after Linux :) [14:19] what about the the panel apps? [14:19] histo: shouldn't there be a replacement for the volume control app in the panel that has player controls as well? As things stand, I have no volume control applet at all. [14:19] Kheops: its because windows only natively supports NTFS or FAT but you can extend it to support ext3 with 3rd party software [14:19] Pici: yeah, its slow as crap with certain files. well long story. i need to get 0.47 [14:19] david_christians: are you running gnome? [14:20] icarus-c: 0.47 not 0.48 [14:20] histo: ok. I will search some.. [14:20] do you know how to integrate Thunderbird with Maveriks messaging menu [14:20] histo: yes [14:20] Hi all. Please help me to find a cd cover picture for ubuntu 10.10 to print on cd/ [14:20] Hi Im trying ot get wpa_supplicant working but wpa_supplicant cant find the AP: it keeps giving the error:skip - SSID mismatch, can anyone help? [14:20] david_christians: right click on panel and click on add to panel [14:20] histo: Another question, to read/write partition ext3 on Windows I must unmount them in Linux ? [14:20] Kheops, you can't have 2 OS running at the same time right? can you? [14:20] Kheops: unless you plan on somehow running linux and windows at the same time, it will be unmounted. [14:20] i mean on the same machine [14:21] bom dia! [14:21] at least not 2 kernel running together [14:21] icarus-c histo: thanks.

[14:26] Kheops: Take a look at http://www.fs-driver.org [14:26] Pici: It's only for 128.. [14:26] Kheops: because there are ubuntu channels in many languages.

Could someone give me recommendation on installing Google Chrome? I'm getting the impression that installing it from the repositories, and installing it from google's website are two different things. === RRKMDW is now known as randyrkelly [14:32] CajunLANMan: corrent [14:32] CajunLANMan: correct [14:32] CajunLANMan: Download it from google and click on it in your file browser. [14:32] CajunLANMan: I would use the one in the repo personally. [14:32] google.com/chrome [14:32] THere is a PPA [14:32] moetunes: thx.. so do i just apt-get it and it appears under the gdm/kdm? [14:32] The PPA tracks Google's releases, and so provides updates often [14:32] Pros and cons one way or the other? === sora_h is now known as sorah_off [14:33] zeltak: that I don't know - I don't use a *dm [14:33] I am happy with the PPA [14:33] CajunLANMan: You don't get updates if you download from google I think, but I'm not sure. [14:33] I would prefer the one in the repository for update purposes. But is the one from google's website better, or more feature packed, than the one in the repository? [14:33] CajunLANMan: There is no con from installing using PPA as far as I know. Infact, its convenient [14:33] CajunLANMan: one from the repos maybe a few versions behind. The one on the web will be more current. Unless you use the daily PPA [14:33] CajunLANMan: if being current is an issue I would use the PPA and then you will get updates.

[15:11] I can get it to work with export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:1 [15:11] it works just like I want it to but it kills the damn app [15:11] every time [15:11] Koenkk, 1588 in this channel [15:12] sudobash: have you tried with gnome-schedule? it has wrapper to run gui apps via cron ... [15:12] how to jion channel 1588? [15:12] im not familiar with irc clients [15:12] In Maverick, is the following really supposed to be correct behaviour by aptitude? 1) With packages gcc and gcc-4.4 installed, install gcc-4.5. This will pull cpp-4.5 and libmpc2 as dependencies. 2) Remove gcc-4.5. 3) Observe that cpp-4.5 and libmpc2 (and probably other deps of gcc-4.5) are NOT removed! [15:12] no havent tried that let me see [15:12] brb [15:12] sudobash: DISPLAY=:1 should be enough [15:12] Koenkk, i mean for your question "anyone?" there were1588 people in the channel [15:12] ok cool [15:12] sillyquestion: no one knows the new testing code name?

[15:54] Lcawte: If you're using the restricted driver, you can use "jockey-text -l" to get the list and then "jockey-text -d " to disable it. Then a reboot will tell you if it was that driver. If it's not, you can repeat it with -e instead of -d to reenable it. [15:54] recon69_lap: um? Whatever happened is the updates fault. Why would it be changing that?

It's somewhere under system->administration->software sources. [16:27] jonsaint: check that your update manager is set to update to normal releases, not just long term support releases, settings button in lower left corner [16:27] V-Twin: if you used the ones packaged by ubuntu they would have upgraded with the release.

[16:38] soc: can you do a force remval ? [16:38] not from synaptic i guess [16:39] soc: can you do it with apt-get ? [16:39] wow...ubuntu 10.4 much better than 7.1 in terms of ram management...but no improvement over cpu usage....avg. 15% at idle is ridiculous especially on a core2duo 2.0ghz. and this is without running any visual effects or ff open. I shudder to think how bad it would be with stuff open. Is there any way to reduce cpu utilization of ubuntu OS? (same laptop on winxp: 0-2% with 30+ tabs open and a few folders) [16:39] Syria: Yes, most of the Core 2 processors are 64-bit capable. And if you don't /need/ 64-bit and 32-bit works, I'd go with that. Fewer issues with things like flash, anyway - if you actually /want/ flash. [16:39] maquis: I'm on UNE10.10 now too.. and I have not found any other way to do this either [16:39] sebsebseb: any idea where the config for the launcher would be?

I love the way unity looks, but I reall need to figure this out in order to keep it... :) [16:41] samosa: be aware that the GNOME system monitor actually consumes a ridiculous amount of CPU time itself.

[16:42] hello there [16:42] stevearky, not really [16:43] uLinux: uh a bit of an odd notice really, what you just sent me [16:43] jk [16:43] kyentei: the only thing I've found that was different between chromium and the other apps that work for me is that I installed it using synaptic instead of the software installer. Might see if it will work if I install it through the software center. [16:43] stevearky, but some programs don't save automatically if they close while shutting down, so those are better off closing beforehand [16:43] I heard many people are expieriencing problems with networkmanager-openvpn [16:43] Daekdroom: i always close manually [16:43] me too [16:43] where is the mapping for '~' (tilde) defined to be a pointer to $HOME?

[16:44] JoeCoolNetbook: depends on your connection and what the repos are liike at the time [16:44] c3l: it's a bash builtin [16:44] JoeCoolNetbook: so may be around 40 minutes depends [16:44] Daekdroom: to be cooler, just dont shut down [16:44] uLinux, why not? [16:44] Everything is done downloading, it's just been installiing for a while. [16:44] c3l: It's implemented within the shell.

I guess my 15,6" could optionally run it too.. not sure whether I'd like it or not [16:46] priest, not supported as well [16:46] Daekdroom, why not?

[17:03] tktiddle, it doesn't matter what kind of partition it is [17:03] 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc IXP SB4x0 High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01). [17:04] I am running ubuntu 9.10. [17:04] maquis: I don't think it is... [17:04] sieson, sry, can't help ypu [17:04] Anyone here on a MBP? Having issue with my trackpad on 10.10... [17:04] tktiddle, maybe you could tell us the errors it gives [17:04] maquis: It's pretty straight forward and pre-configured... hard coded stuff, just like the panel. =( [17:04] ikonia, any idea why the marvell-based sata card is detected, it's modules are loaded but the drives attached to it aren't visible as /dev/sd* ? [17:04] help :) [17:04] kyentei: ok... jut hoping... :) [17:04] aquarat: are you using raid mode [17:04] no [17:04] maquis: Feel free to :P hehe [17:05] QuasarCRO, Hey man...popper is installed and configured, but I cant see it in my MeMenu? [17:05] it prompts for ctrl+m on boot [17:05] brendan0powers: i installed ubuntu 10.10 from a live usb and now i'm using it but i had one warning in the installation i want to see [17:05] aquarat: so you're using it in jbod mode? [17:05] which opens a utility that allows me to create and delete raid arrays but nothing more [17:05] Roland: So when i try to share the GUI way i get: 'net usershare' returned 255: net usershare add: cannot convert name "Everyone" to a SID. Undetermined error. [17:05] gbear14275: If you added a PPA, you can delete the appropriately-named file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d - otherwise you'll have to edit /etc/apt/sources.list manually. [17:05] I'm not sure ikonia... I've looked for a way to turn off jbod but there's nothing [17:05] does anyone know of any sources for more games on ubuntu? [17:05] brendan0powers: in /var/log/installer there are any readeable file === kostas_thess__ is now known as kostas_thess [17:06] mikebeecham: try to reboot.. the memenu need to restart or somting like that... worked for me [17:06] aquarat: you want to use it IN jbod mode [17:06] it allows creation and deletion of arrays, no other options seem to be present [17:06] luichi: so the directory is empty, or you just get permission denied errors? [17:06] jbod mode is straight through hey? [17:06] darael: ok, was curious if someone might have written the counter to add-apt to take care of keyrings and everything in one swoop [17:06] aquarat: pastebin the output of "sudo fdisk -l" in a pastebin please [17:06] ok [17:06] I logged out and in again QuasarCRO ...will I only see it when new emails arrive, or can I click something within the MeMenu at any time? [17:06] gbear14275: I don't believe so. It's actually considerably more complex to do. [17:07] luichi: ah, most of the files in that directory can only be read by root [17:07] brendan0powers: there are files in the directory but i can't read them [17:07] hello everybody! yesterday i made 10.04 to 10.10 upgrade and everything was fine but today i found my self without being able to connect to internet (using usb modem). as a lucky shot i realised that if i have a usb data pen connected im able to connect to internet. any ideas? [17:07] ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/510985/ [17:07] darael: really? So it wouldn't be as easy as reading in the PPA info and then just removing those entries instead of adding them? [17:07] all: i have a problem with a SWAP partition that does not automont !!! [17:07] luichi: are you using the command line or a GUI editor? [17:07] aquarat: ton of disks there [17:07] I'm building a machine with the idea in mind of using it for mdadm on raid 6 [17:07] yes [17:08] the machine has 11 drives [17:08] brendan0powers: i have a file called initial-status.gz and if i open it has a file called inital-status which is readable [17:08] each 2TB in size [17:08] aquarat: how many are hanging off the marvel ? [17:08] this is the third such machine I've built [17:08] mikebeecham: for me it is there all the time... but not in the start.. needed to get å mail first.. [17:08] only 3 are on the marvel [17:08] ahh ok [17:08] I used to use a PCI variant made by sunix [17:08] gbear14275: No - partly because you might /want/ the key in your keyring, so it'd have to be able to tell if it was there before the add-apt-repository was executed. [17:08] which works well in the other machinesa [17:08] but I figured I'd gtet better throughput if I spread the controllers between [17:08] brendan0powers: but i think it's not from ubuntu installation [17:08] pci and pci express [17:09] darael: ok thanks [17:09] the marvel controller is on pci express [17:09] aquarat: I count 8 disks there, is that what you count ? [17:09] luichi: I have that file [17:09] luichi: but the other files in that directory look more interesting [17:09] yes [17:09] aquarat: 9 sorry, including the sda boot disk [17:09] looks like 8 disks [17:09] brendan0powers: but how you read them' [17:09] yeah, the 500GB [17:10] mikebeecham: do you have imap activated on your gmail and testet the connection? === nitesh is now known as mobster [17:10] aquarat: so the 3 that are missing are the 3 off the marvel in your opinion ? [17:10] luichi: what editor are you using? [17:10] yeah, QuasarCRO tested connection fine [17:10] brendan0powers: gedit [17:10] I guess I have to wait for an email to test it :D [17:10] Hm, well, ok, I have my desktop back, but I can't change the display size without it recreating xorg.conf (which causes it to keep in command line) [17:10] yes ikonia... I know for sure because I've unplugged the marvel card [17:10] brendan0powers: it can only read media-info [17:10] and the other drives remained [17:10] luichi: then open up a console, and run sudo gedit [17:10] then open the files from there [17:10] the odd thing is I can see the card in lspci -vvv [17:11] and it shows the modules associated with it [17:11] aquarat: perfect, ok, so my suggestions are a.) use the cards bios to make sure no raid devices, and they are configured as jbods, 2.) look clear the syslog, reboot and walk it through, see what it says about the card and the disks [17:11] brendan0powers: It's generably advisable to use gksu rather than sudo for graphical apps (they handle changing the environment slightly differently) - just FYI. [17:11] oh! [17:11] all: solved fstab [17:11] I forgot something potentially important [17:11] darael: thanks [17:12] on boot.. the machine shows a blank screen for about three minutes [17:12] If I take away the "quiet" boot flag [17:12] it shows that it's having issues with an ata interface [17:12] is there a separate ubuntu netbook channel? [17:12] aquarat: probably due to the cards bios taking a while to load and spin up the disks [17:12] brendan0powers: ok fine now i can read them :) thanks [17:12] complaining that the link is slow [17:12] and that it's going to reset it [17:12] brendan0powers: i will see if i find the warning if not i will tell you === Guest15877 is now known as oktay_ [17:12] aquarat: Hmm lets follow the steps I suggested and return to that information [17:12] [ 83.488039] ata12: link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=0) [17:12] dmesg :) [17:13] where is the administration/preferences etc menus in NETBOOK release? [17:13] Hm, well, ok, I have my desktop back, but I can't change the display size without it recreating xorg.conf (which causes it to keep in command line) (How do I get my screensize back) [17:13] aquarat: have you got enough power to spin up the disks ? [17:13] yes [17:13] it's a 650w power supply [17:13] and easily exceeds the requirements of the drives in terms of amps [17:13] How stable is 10.10 32bit Desktop? [17:13] ok, I'll follow your instructions [17:13] hello everybody! yesterday i made 10.04 to 10.10 upgrade and everything was fine but today i found my self without being able to connect to internet (using usb modem). as a lucky shot i realised that if i have a usb data pen connected im able to connect to internet. any ideas? [17:14] I have onboard Intel graphics and an add in nVidia card, like an idiot I installed an nVidia driver, not I get a black screen, I want to deactivate the nVidia driver, how can I do this? [17:14] Lcawte: You'll need to work out which element of the xorg.conf is causing X not to start and remove that bit after it gets recreated. I'm sorry, I can't do any better than that. [17:14] brendan0powers: ok i think i found it :) [17:14] !ops THE GAY NIGGER ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA WANTS YOU TO KNOW WHEN YOU COMMENT ON SPAM, THE GAY NIGGERS WIN.

[17:18] Any alternative download sites for 10.10 in the U.S? 5hours from a oc3 connection seems silly [17:19] Right. So How do I set my virtual resolution? === eric is now known as Guest78783 [17:19] elb0w: look at the other mirrors list [17:19] ups shutdown [17:19] or dev/ttys0 i guess [17:19] aeon-ltd, I dont see a mirrors link [17:19] How do I set my virtual resolution in 10.10 [17:19] ? [17:19] how to find out what config apcupsd is not happy about ? [17:20] elb0w: http://www.ubuntu.com/start-download [17:20] elb0w: I suggest using the torrent for the alternate CD - you can upgrade without reinstalling using that, and the torrent shouldn't have activity problems the day after the release. [17:20] I've invariably botched my upgrade to 10.10, and have been unable to get X working. I have an Nvidia card, two monitors, and "startx" fails returning: "Fatal error: no screens found". Halp? [17:20] i checked all settings 3 times now [17:20] elb0w: Or use: http://mirror.anl.gov/ [17:20] im not being able to see the "shut down, restart , etc" icon. is there a key shortcut or other way to shut down? [17:21] Guest78783: Disable the nvidia proprietary driver. Use "jockey-text -l" to find its name, and then "jockey-text -d " to disable it. Reboot and see if it's improved. [17:21] Torrents are blocked from work :( [17:21] How can I set nautilus to be the default FTP client instead of the browser in maverick? the places menu keeps opening ftp in the browser :( [17:21] Virtual resolution [17:21] from command prompt you can type sudo shutdown -h now to shutdown, i think ctl-alt-del also brings up shutdown menu [17:21] How do I set it? [17:21] Guest78783: You may be able to re-enable it afterwards. [17:21] darael, thanks, but it looks like jockey-text is trying to use a display, which isn't functional right now. [17:22] Anyone know the virtual resolution thing? [17:22] that anl.gov works [17:22] ty [17:22] bluespotmouse: What Maka_ said. Also, unless the computer is a) a laptop or b) ancient, pressing the power button usually does the same thing. [17:22] Guest78783: It does that - just ignore it, it still works. [17:22] Maka_ : thanks [17:22] I could really need some help right now, I [17:22] hey everyone, when i do an upgrade from vista to 7, will the mbr be deleted ?

[17:23] goltoof: depends what you write with and in [17:23] aeon-ltd, like #web [17:24] Hi there. I just have one quick question [17:24] :), i know this will it be deleted ? [17:24] How does one set the virtual resolution in 10.10 [17:24] yeah, figured, wondered if there are groups that are kind of into everything [17:24] My sound suddenly stopped working and was earlier. I had this problem once with 10.10 Beta. No nothing is muted! The Ubuntu Sound Troubleshooting Wiki was no help. Any ideas? [17:24] HTML is hardly web development at all in this day and age [17:24] darael: should the Xorg logs have something about it? [17:24] Guest78783: Hmm, not sure then. Disabling the proprietary driver fixed it for me, and I've found nouveau quite usable. [17:24] I have multiple monitors that worked in 10.4, and now they just isn't quite enough virtual resolution for it [17:25] no xorg.conf to be found [17:25] Lcawte: I'm sorry, I'll have to skip back over the logs to remind myself of the context before I can answer that. [17:25] how do i reinstall Grub2? ubuntu is unaccessable. [17:25] I must be failing Google. Is there a doc or howto on how to properly set up a Ubuntu desktop to use CIFS supplied $HOME? [17:26] installing debian works but 10.04 server doesn't, why? [17:26] X-Sleepy-X: Tried #ubuntu-server ? [17:26] jpds, thanks [17:26] sco: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20GRUB%202 [17:26] i upgraded to maverick thanks everyone [17:26] Lcawte: I'm not sure, sorry. They might do. First place to look (if you ask me) is references in xorg.conf to "nvidia", but I can't do you much better than that. [17:26] jpds: hey, do you know how to set the virtual resolution in 10.10? [17:27] but now that i'm using maverick "software sources" no longer appears in the administration menu [17:27] did i do something wrong? [17:27] hi all [17:27] it's in the software center kroger [17:27] thank you [17:28] :) and I'm not even support... [17:28] krogers0001: it is actually still there, just hidden by default in maverick, you can edit the menu and check the box to show it again if you want [17:28] mmarker: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently looks like a good place to start. [17:28] I have noticed fornt problems in new ubuntu 10.10, where can I submit the bug? [17:28] ok thanks everyone [17:29] ikonia, here's the first entry in the syslog : kernel: [ 1.040639] pata_marvell 0000:03:00.0: PCI INT A -> Link[LN0A] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19 [17:29] (relating to the marvell card) [17:29] Ok guys [17:29] darael, aha. Got X started by uninstalling xserver-xorg, then installing ubuntu-desktop. However, now after logging in, I get desktop icons but no gnome panels. (using Noveau) [17:29] I fixed someones problem [17:29] Now can anybody help me set the virtual resolution? [17:29] Hey guys, So, whats new and Interesting in Maverick? [17:29] darael: I'll pastebin it, hang on# [17:30] bivunlim: Cant set virutal resolution... [17:30] Guest78783: Hmm. Have you tried killall gnome-panel? They usually respawn if you kill them. [17:30] ikonia: it seems to link two ports to scsi entities "[ 1.040746] scsi10 : pata_marvell" [17:30] * bivunlim is Googling.. [17:30] :) [17:30] Lcawte: I'll take a look, but I'm no X expert. [17:30] Darael: saw that. The" this may not work anymore" w.r.t. credentials file has me concerned [17:31] darael: http://pastebin.com/CRUPhxLt (Config) | http://pastebin.com/Pcjk48XT (Error Log) [17:31] Is there any reason that compiz now refuses to work?

[17:32] Darael: pam_mount may also work...but found even less on how it properly integrated with ubuntu. [17:32] Is ubuntu 10.10 faster than the previous version? [17:33] co to za miejsce? [17:33] darael, yeah they died -- and they do respawn, but still no gnome panels being displayed. :( [17:33] Hmm...maybe a good question is how to set up nfs homes... [17:33] Lcawte: I suggest trying (no promises) changing 'Driver "nvidia"' to 'Driver "nouveau"'. [17:33] aquarat: apologies, was away [17:33] no worries ikonia [17:33] I'm grateful for the help [17:33] Guest78783: Hmm, I dunno, then. Sorry...

I am using ubuntu 10.10 within virtual box running on my windows xp, i connect to a vpn thorugh my windows machine, when i do my net stops working in the VB, any suggestions or ideas ? === nicolas__ is now known as nickelmanco [17:34] yes ikonia, but IO'm not sure whether it's just seeing the pata interface or whether it's seeing [17:34] both the pata interface and the sata interfaces [17:34] lept0n: because your cutting off your network by using the private VPN [17:34] (the card has 4 sata ports and 1 pata port) [17:34] aquarat: can you pastebin a good chunk of the log, [17:34] sure thing [17:34] stby [17:35] Ikonia: yes I know but is there a way i can configure it to use the vpn network ? [17:35] what's really the difference between alternate and server install except for kernel and some software, i mean, what's the difference between the installers. does the alternate installer require less RAM than the server installer? i mean, the kind of look the same to me... [17:35] lept0n: you tell it to use the vpn interface, rather than the physical interface [17:35] they*** [17:35] lept0n: keep in mind it routes out of your PC's nic, so if your PC's nic changes due to the VPN, that's going to kill your virtual box connection [17:35] lept0n: the guys in ##windows can help you progress it as it's not an ubuntu issue [17:36] hey, I just switched from the fglrx drivers for my ati hd 4570 to the standard open source ati driver [17:36] Help: Ubuntu lets me login using GDM, but then gives me just a desktop with icons, a cursor, and no panels or other functionality. [17:36] X-Sleepy-X, The alternate installer installs a full desktop. The Server installs a much smaller set of software. The Server has no GUI, for example. [17:36] Guest78783: That just happened to me [17:36] DMzda, how'd you fix it? [17:36] now my dell suspends like it should when the lid is closed, but when the system comes back up the mouse is invisible for a few minutes [17:36] ikonia:ok thanks, i will check with them also [17:36] then comes back === Guest78783 is now known as easier-to-type-t [17:36] Did they move the usb peripherals from /proc/bus/usb in maverick?

[17:37] Severian, except for what they install [17:37] aquarat: reading [17:37] easier-to-type-t: Do you have Gnome-Do? [17:37] If so, use Win+Space [17:37] is there a way to encrypt your hard drive after you have already installed ubuntu? or is it too late? [17:38] DMzda, I'm guessing no [17:38] lahwran: Try Synaptic [17:38] easier-to-type-t: Then I dunno [17:38] X-Sleepy-X, I use the alternate installer frequently. I have not used the Server install recently. I don't remember them being similar. [17:38] grrr [17:38] DMzda: thank you but no thank you, I need something command line, and anyway synaptic has to get it's list somehow too [17:38] tacomaster: You can migrate to an encrypted $HOME, but a fully-encrypted hard drive would be more easily done by a reinstall. That's not to say it can't be done, although I personally don't know how.

[17:41] aquarat: yes, and you can clearly see the difference between the other contorller [17:41] I have a problem with DNS and ubuntu [17:41] tacomaster: I've worked with encrypted hard drives and home directories quite a bit, so I can help you out. [17:41] lahwran, There is something with https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/KernelModeSetting [17:41] I think the C drive is sda2, but the boot loader thinks it's installed in sda1 [17:41] undecim: cool [17:41] tacomaster: There's guides at http://blog.dustinkirkland.com/2009/06/migrating-to-encrypted-home-directory.html and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1449168 - they refer to earlier versions, but they'll still work. Or listen to undecim.

You have to shut down the virtual machine first. [17:47] how to i get a domain account in ubuntu users & group enable without changing the password [17:47] tacomaster: Depends on how sensitive.

[17:49] aquarat: why it's having a problem with the disk link, I don't know [17:49] tacomaster: You can do that, but it involves copying your entire hard drive to another disk, and running a livecd to move it all back into the encrypted drive and configuring it all.

[18:01] zakna, ext4 is shrinkable. It has to be done while the partition is offline. I don't do it, because I just make my partitions the right size to begin with. [18:01] tacomaster: That shouldn't be necessary [18:01] gilaniali: Minimum recommended hardware is in the Ubuntu release notes: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MaverickMeerkat/ReleaseNotes [18:01] aquarat: back in a minute [18:01] same here [18:01] undecim: what does it ask you to delete? [18:02] what's the command to update grub [18:02] anyone else have any idea about the command to upgrade from cd. the path seems to be old in the upgrade notes? [18:02] waaade: That's the setuid or setgid bit (depending whether you set u+s or g+s) - it causes executables to be run with their owner user or group permissions, and sgid on a directory makes all files created in it have the same group ownership as the directory. [18:02] Severian:good pratice mate well im gonna try it then thanks a lot all [18:02] collabra: sudo update-grub [18:02] !grub [18:02] grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10).

[18:02] http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager#Linux [18:02] tacomaster: But we want to make sure it gets zero'd out properly, otherwise the data still sits on the drive [18:03] undecim: ok [18:03] hello, how do I disable swat in ubuntu, don't see it as a running service [18:03] i'm having issues upgrading to 10.10 [18:03] waaade: http://lokams.blogspot.com/2008/03/about-suid-sgid-and-sticky-bit.html for more information [18:03] undecim: so i need to do the copy first right [18:03] the alternate install cds give a python error [18:03] when i try to upgrade [18:03] I was thinking of getting a 256 mb VPS from VPStree, but they just came out this: http://unixy.net/99/ [18:03] tacomaster: No, the migration script should copy it [18:03] waaade: (that being the first link I found) [18:03] any suggestions for a good, affordable VPS provider? [18:03] My micro phone is not working, in the input tab of volume control, there is no input device found. can somebody help me please? btw im using ubuntu 10.04 [18:03] ok i am downloading unetbootin to try making a bootable usb drive. any idea how to install a bin file? [18:03] !swat [18:03] Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. [18:03] tacomaster: Though if you want to copy to an external device, that would be a good idea [18:04] stealth_, I backup all of my cookies with the command ls -l. I don't have any cookies, and suggest you get rid of yours, too. [18:04] i am using kerplunc.com, so far so good.. [18:04] undecim: ok ill be back in a bit then [18:04] I forget how you even get to SWAT. [18:04] hi... wget www.google.com is working but not sudo wget www.google.com [18:04] darael, i'll check it out now :) thanks for your help [18:04] gilaniali: My favorite is Linode. They support Ubuntu. [18:04] aquarat: ok, and one final thing (just checked my personal notes) make sure the card firmware is up to date, there can be an issue if the kernel driver is too new for the older firmware (I had that problem) [18:04] pls help [18:04] Dr_Willis, you get there: localhost:901 [18:04] im using a proxy [18:04] i was trying 601 :) [18:04] undecim: wait i have to log in to root right? [18:04] dr_willis: how can i tell if it is mounted? does that mean it shows up on my desktop? i'm very new to ubuntu and using command prompts, so i am very lost. [18:04] Severian, I want to keep a select few cookies [18:04] waaade: Happy to help. [18:04] ganeshran: be careful, linode use a modified ubuuntu build [18:04] help to do updates, i get a message saying i can not do an update from 10.10 to 10.04 [18:04] tacomaster: The recovery console will give you the option to use a root shell [18:05] what is the password to root because if you type in su to ubuntu its not your user password [18:05] dajhorn: i do wanna eventually get to linode, but i dont want to fork over $20 a month for just a hobby. VPS tree offers a 256 mb package, for $6 [18:05] Prez00 thats not getting to swat forme. :) perhaps its not running. [18:05] is there a way to clear the amount of ram which is being used for cache, thus release all the inactive RAM? [18:05] tacomaster: There is no root password [18:05] tacomaster: Use sudo -i instead. [18:05] drcooper: why do you need to sudo wget google.co.uk ? [18:05] ikonia: um, whats linode? [18:05] cssc: you proberly should spend an hr reading some command line tutorials then. [18:05] undecim: ok ty [18:05] ganeshran: hosting provider [18:05] gilaniali: $.99 per month is TGTBT. Why not just run it on your home Internet connection? [18:05] cssc: mount command shows whats mounted where. normally windows stuff gets mounted to /media/ somewhere. [18:05] ikonia: ok i think your message came to me by mistake. [18:06] ganeshran: oops, sorry [18:06] any idea how do we install bin files? [18:06] ganeshran: depends on what it is.. you often RUN them.... [18:06] ganeshran: they are binary, make them execuatlbe and run them [18:06] ganeshran: sh whatever.bin or chmod +x whatever.bin ./whatever.bin [18:06] Dr_Willis: its latest release of unetbootin [18:06] ganeshran: We don't, if we can help it. However, if it's an installer, you'll want to run it, as ikonia and Dr_Willis said. [18:06] ikonia there is this install script which downloads stuff from internet before it starts install..because it is an install script i have to run it as root [18:06] EvilPhoenix, Linux tries to use all your ram. If not needed for anything else, it is used for cache. Don't worry about lots of ram being used for cache. [18:06] ganeshran: id just use the one from the repos... [18:06] !info unetbootin [18:06] unetbootin (source: unetbootin): installer of Linux/BSD distributions to a partition or USB drive. In component universe, is optional. Version 471-1ubuntu1 (maverick), package size 274 kB, installed size 808 kB [18:07] Severian: so i shouldnt worry about it since i have 16GB of swap too? [18:07] x] [18:07] drcooper: what are you trying to install ? [18:07] dajhorn: .99 per month is only 64mb. I am considering hosting my own, and dont want to keep my computer open all the time [18:07] Dr_Willis: The one from repo doesnt support 10.10. Itsays on their website === Mrokii__ is now known as Mrokii [18:07] EvilPhoenix: What on earth do you need 16G of swap for?! [18:07] does anyone know how to fix the touchpad - double tap feature with ubuntu 10.10? it worked with 10.04 and I used it to paste text [18:07] gilaniali: *shrug* It is unlikely that you'll find hosting for less than the cost of electricity. [18:07] ganeshran: in linux for making ubuntu flash drives.. i use the ubuntu usb-disk creator tool.. Not unetbootin [18:07] EvilPhoenix, If 16GB of swap is in use, that is more of a concern. Memory used for cache is released as needed. [18:08] hey guys after the recent update on my ubuntu 10.04 (before the 10.10 release).. I cant get to the login screen.. [18:08] ikonia : thanks for your help, I really appreciate it. I'm going to try and swap in another motherboard with a different pci-e and pci slot configuration and see if that works, if it does, I'll let you know [18:08] darael: dunno, but its a 1.5TB drive, so I said what the heck. x] [18:08] i'll start with the 256 package one [18:08] aquarat: no problem [18:08] Under Admin/Login, I set ubuntu Karmic to login to one user on booting. Now when I boot, it does not complete and I cannot access any apps. Is there a keyboard shortcut to open terminal??? [18:08] Severian: i have 16GB of swap, none of its being used [18:08] ikonia : http://ubuntu-manual.org/getinvolved/authors see the install tex-live part [18:08] once the laptop bootss the only thing I get is the default background and nothing else [18:08] Dr_Willis: Ok i will try downloading that then [18:08] Severian: so when my swap starts to be eaten up, then i should be concerned right? [18:08] ganeshran: err.. its installed by default in the system-> admin menu,., [18:08] Greetings [18:08] drcooper: which part of that process is failing ? [18:08] * Dr_Willis would find it odd that unetbootin in 10.10 cant handle 10.10... :) [18:09] hi, is there a way to customize the auto formatting of text in gedit for different languages? [18:09] i can still acces the terminal by doing ctrl + alt + f7 [18:09] Have somone not probleem with Facebook on Gwibber ? [18:09] I so like new netbook-remix interface!! This is better than was before. Bot it works a bit slowly [18:09] Dr_Willis: oh cool. i will try it now [18:09] Why is there no Ubuntu 10.10 minimal CD out yet? [18:09] Anyone know if the new 10.10 finally has good Intel drivers for the video card on the i3/i5/i7 series? [18:09] stupid question (I think): Is it possible to, at login, set it up so I can choose between the netbook (unity) wm and the standard gnome desktop? [18:09] ganeshran: it also allows you to make a persistant save/home files.. unetbootin dont do that (that ive seen) [18:09] 10.04 has been more or less unusable on my system [18:09] could I theoretically enter in my own formatting for specific key words? [18:09] cdtank: You have a tty on ctl+alt+f7? tty7 is normally where X lives... [18:09] EvilPhoenix, A little swap in use is considered good by the kernel developers. On their mailing list, they have discussed this a few times. It is when lots of swap is in use that you start to pay attention. [18:09] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_X6_khAvqg&feature=related [18:09] Besogon: i like the way it looks, but i'm having problems with apps... :( [18:09] Dr_Willis: After i make a startup disk i can install 10.10 from it right, after booting from it? [18:09] j/oin @Gwibber [18:09] heh good to know, Severian. thanks for the info [18:09] nozes: why have you posted that ? [18:10] ganeshran: tahts how i install all my systems [18:10] ok... anyone else annoyed with 75% of their packages being reported as "installed (manual)" in synaptic? Anyone have a fix for this? [18:10] ikonia when run with "sudo" it says it could not connect to the website. without sudo it downloads but does not have permissions to create directories [18:10] ikonia, sorry [18:10] Dr_Willis: Thanks a ton :) === gianni is now known as roxdragon [18:10] maquis: Yes. It is. In Maverick, at least. Just install the other desktop and choose after choosing your user but before entering the password, at the login screen. [18:10] drcooper: which bit [18:11] drcooper: sorry, just trying to be clear [18:11] darael: okay. thanks a ton! I'm going to have to do that. So, it doesn't take any setup besides installing... good :) [18:11] maquis: Not a problem. Multiple available DEs work in quite a sane manner, I find, which is nice. [18:11] stealth_, I would look ad the firefox addin CookieSwap. It may do what you want. [18:12] Does 10.10 have updated Intel GMA drivers? or working drivers that's not VESA [18:12] So how is 10.10 going for people? I'm planning on putting it on a netbook tonight, any big issues to watch out for? [18:12] darael: so, just install gnome? [18:12] Severian, I may do that. I just want to have my firefox cookies saved, I got a few online games I play that I need them in [18:12] wad: anything from 10.04 sucks for Intel video card systems [18:12] wad: ive had some problems, but most people seem to be doing ok [18:12] wad: if you use the netbook version, it doesn't let you add some apps to the launcher [18:12] ok, how do i black list a built in web cam , Bus 001 Device 004: ID 064e:a103 Suyin Corp. ??? [18:12] wad: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MaverickMeerkat/ReleaseNotes#Known%20Issues [18:12] ikonia http://paste.ubuntu.com/511020/ [18:12] As soon as I find a good way, its hello Ubuntu 10.10 [18:12] maquis: I'd advise installing ubuntu-desktop, but yes, just installing gnome should work too. [18:12] Okay, I have a user that auto logs in, how do I change their default desktop? [18:12] problem: borked network manager . question: is reinstalling network manager the safest way to fix this? [18:12] I'm having a problem installing Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit on my real PC even though I have sucessfully installed the same copy on virtualbox [18:12] drcooper: ok, cool. [18:12] darael: ah... that's what it's called. thanks! [18:12] drcooper: the problem is around the proxy env [18:12] ikonia it does not seem to be using my proxy settings [18:12] drcooper: now, I can't remember the exact environment varible, so work with me here [18:12] wad, I have 10.10 installed on 3 machines. One is a netbook. They are all working great. [18:13] darael: sorry... less experience with ubuntu than other distros in the past :) [18:13] on the last part of the installation after downloading packages it gets stuck at installing system [18:13] drcooper: please do the command "env | grep -i proxy" [18:13] KeithWeisshar: guessing drivers for the video card, I run 10.04 fien under vmware due to the emulated video driver [18:13] drcooper: does that show anything ? [18:13] i have a geforce gtx 470 card [18:13] dr_willis: i think i figured out why it was giving me so much problems, i didn't realize that it was case sensitive. [18:13] ikonia the proxy variable is http_proxy [18:13] maquis: No problem, that's what the support channel is for, right? [18:13] Thanks guys! I'll move forward then. I think I'll just put the desktop version on the netbook, instead of the netbook version. Don't care for the default interface thingy on the netbook edition anyway, and I don't think there is really any other reason to use it. [18:14] drcooper: fantastic, is it there ? [18:14] i found it pretty easily once i started using the right case. [18:14] ikonia: yes echo $http_proxy shows my proxy [18:14] the bootup on my real pc is slower than on virtualbox and the installation is slow [18:14] drcooper: now do "sudo env" [18:14] drcooper: is it there ? [18:14] once iam (supposedly) on the login screen i cant see anything.. just the mouse & the background [18:15] i can go to the shell by doing ctrl + alt + f1 [18:15] it takes a long to for gnome to start [18:15] ikonia nope [18:15] Hello guys [18:15] ikonia how do i add [18:15] drcooper: ok, so we have a winner, give me a minute I can't remember how to add that [18:15] when I press ctrl-alt-f1 after gnome finally starts it freezes and takes a long time to go to shell [18:15] cdtank, That takes you to virtual terminal 1. Unless you change it, you usually have 6 of those and the 7th is the gui. [18:16] hi guys i want to get rid of color encoding in my ubuntu terminal is it possible? [18:16] is the geforce gtx 470 not supported? [18:16] Im trying to copy a isofs cd to a cf card but ubuntu seem to have issues with some of the filenames [18:16] does anyone knows how to solve this? [18:16] drcooper: test with sudo -e wget www.google.co.uk [18:16] is the gf100 gpu not supported [18:16] I am getting 404 error while downloading using jigdo-lite. for example this url throws 404 http://ftp.iinet.net.au/pub/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/squashfs-modules-2.6.32-24-generic-pae-di_2.6.32-24.39_i386.udeb [18:16] After having upgraded to 10.10 on desktop, local server and 5 remote servers thought I'd try the laptop, everything is fine apart from the wifi, I can see the networks listed and it has the correct password but I can't connect now, it sticks on "Validating Authentication" and then says "connection failed: bad password", tried it with the 3 different wifi networks in the building and all the same. Running Kubuntu 10.10 with wicd [18:16] shishirmk, open ~/.bashrc and change your setting. [18:16] is it not supported by the inbox driver [18:17] problem: borked network manager . question: is reinstalling network manager the safest way to fix this? the service does start if i run it manually [terminal] [18:17] ikonia ooh it entered edit mode...into nano... [18:17] when i boot from the cd there is a black border around all side and the border remains even when gnome finally starts [18:17] drcooper: oops sorry [18:18] drcooper: sudo -E wget www.google.com [18:18] hello! I just intalled it pretty headless ... so ... how can i move window buttons to right side? [18:18] drcooper: sorry, rusty [18:18] KeithWeisshar: try changing your monitor x and y margins, it may have just set incorrectly [18:18] Dr_Willis: Hi, I created the startup disk but it doesnt boot from it. The error is Unknown keyword in configuration file [18:18] ikonia time for "thanks" [18:18] my monitor is an acer h233h bmid [18:18] connected via hdmi [18:18] ikonia :) [18:18] ooh god, just installed 10.10 on my netbook and unity is SO SLOW! Will this get fixed in the next few weeks? [18:18] drcooper: ok, lets get that in your root profiles [18:18] drcooper: give me a minute to work it out [18:18] windows is better than linux [18:19] Can someone see if you get a bug for me? [18:19] will there be a respin to fix the slow installation issue on 64-bit [18:19] Try going to a HD youtube video and doing fullscreen [18:19] The audio gets garbled. [18:19] Perra: You seem to be in the incorrect network. [18:19] recmajkemi: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/13535/move-window-buttons-back-to-the-right-in-ubuntu-10.04/ [18:19] Perra: yes it is, the same way your left hand is better than your right [18:19] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUv98eWVnL0 [18:19] yes [18:19] Try doing 720p and doing fullscreen, the audio gets garbled. [18:19] my monitor has 1920x1080 resolution [18:19] hey there [18:20] also sometimes the background in mangled very bad [18:20] Hrmm... Somehow, I managed to get an empty space in my launcher, and I don't know how I did that. [18:20] hi anyone tried to create a startup disk for ubuntu 10.10 inside 10.04 [18:20] Is there a command to get the ip address of every computer on your network [18:20] ganeshran: not yet [18:20] it says unknown keyword in configuration file :( [18:20] it's a 1080p hd monitor [18:20] KeithWeisshar: please try to stay on one line, also please try solutions that might work [18:20] !enter | KeithWeisshar [18:20] KeithWeisshar: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [18:21] ciao [18:21] Unity, when will it be fixed, currently unusable on my 1005HA.. how could they release this bloated crap, what happened to "Ubuntu Light"?? [18:21] * JediMaster ponders removing wicd and installing network-manager (ugh) [18:21] fuller: you need to look at the router to get that info [18:21] starpollo: what's the problem you're having? [18:21] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUv98eWVnL0 [18:21] Try doing 720p and doing fullscreen, the audio gets garbled. [18:21] How can I fix that? [18:21] Hi folks! [18:22] film [18:22] !repeat | thechitowncubs [18:22] thechitowncubs: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://ubuntu.stackexchange.com [18:22] i have a small thing.. before the upgrade to 10.10, glxgears was giving me 1800 per 5 seconds, now it stays on 300 per 5 sec (60 FPS) why is this? how can i test better xorg configuration if it caps on 60FPS ?? [18:22] thechitowncubs: nobody else has your problem; it doesn't get garbled for the rest of us [18:22] fuller. It is not possible to run a command that is 100 percent complete. Because some devices may not answer queries. nmap can do a good job. Personally, I look in the dhcp lease table on my router. [18:22] thechitowncubs: what are the specs of your pc? it may just be that its too old and outdated that it can't run it [18:22] drcooper: almost there [18:22] it's just incredibly slow, searching for files or applications, using the dock, it's all really sluggish. [18:22] aeon-ltd, i have a centrino duo not the problem [18:23] ikonia : take ur time :) [18:23] thechitowncubs: what graphics card ... [18:23] thechitowncubs: the full specs please? [18:23] Centrino Duo 1.83ghz [18:23] 2gb RAM [18:23] Intel Graphics [18:23] what does grub error 15 mean? [18:23] * JediMaster notices network-manager is installed already at the same time as wicd =/ [18:23] v3nd3tta``, google it [18:24] !google | thechitowncubs [18:24] thechitowncubs: While Google is useful for helpers, many newer users don't have the google-fu yet. Please don't tell people to "google it" when they ask a question. [18:24] thechitowncubs: are you running compiz at the same time? [18:24] aeon-ltd, yes. [18:24] does anybody know for sure whether ubuntu 9.?? can be run on a P2 with 512MB of RAM? [18:24] aeon-ltd, ill try it with compiz off [18:24] thechitowncubs: thats the cause, disable then try again [18:24] Traintop, It can [18:24] Traintop, Ubuntu 10.10 could run on that. [18:24] Traintop, I run it on slower systems with less memory. So, sure. [18:24] drcooper: ok, I have a dirty fix for you [18:24] drcooper: are you there [18:24] Traintop: if you have that much ram most any OS would run on that [18:24] does anyone know why I might be getting this error when I try to share a folder in ubuntu? 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: cannot convert name "Everyone" to a SID. Undetermined error. [18:25] i have a small thing.. before the upgrade to 10.10, glxgears was giving me 1800 per 5 seconds, now it stays on 300 per 5 sec (60 FPS) why is this? how can i test better xorg configuration if it caps on 60FPS ?? anyone? [18:25] thechitowncubs: even though compiz is heavily developed, compositing for linux is still in its 'infancy' as well as proprietry software like flash, mixing these can only be bad for systems [18:25] edbian: Thanks a lot; do you also know which platform is the "oldest" for ubuntu to run on? besides the fact, that linux will only run on 386 and above... :-) [18:25] ikonia yes [18:25] Traintop: slowly maybe, but even an os as big as windows 7 will run on 512 MB [18:25] aeon-ltd, you're exactly right about everything. [18:25] it worked. [18:25] thechitowncubs: glad i could help :) [18:26] drcooper: in your /home/$useraname/.bashrc look for the words "alias" you'll see a few commands being aliased, eg: alias ls=`ls --color" [18:26] aeon-ltd, thaks [18:26] nk [18:26] Traintop: I think that with 10.04, you have to have at least a 586. not sure about 10.10 [18:26] it is not the RAM which makes me nervous; it is the processor... :-( [18:26] drcooper: you need to add a line that says "alias sudo=`sudo -E` [18:26] man im having a hell of a time getting any version of ubuntu on my Via Nehemiah machine. anyone got any clues as to why it just hangs up [18:26] The_Snake: I'm getting ~9000 per 5 sec on maverick, so it must be something with your setup (I don't know what), might help to give details of your setup [18:26] Traintop, Linux can run on nearly any arch. I'm not sure which arch is the oldest. [18:26] drcooper: restart your shell, and your problems should be done [18:26] ikonia got it [18:26] I've googled it and apparently alot of people are getting a poor user experience from the unity interface.. all I'm hoping for is that it will be stable in the next few weeks, or will I have to wait for 11.04? [18:26] can I install ubuntu without GUI (X) ? [18:26] Traintop, 586 is a processor =) [18:26] ikonia btw do u remember a guy who used to use the "su" command and messed up his bah environment and ended up not being able to use wget?? it was me...and u tracked that down :D [18:26] Traintop: thats the server install [18:26] Traintop, Debian has the largest arch support. If you have a c compiler for your arch you can run linux on it. [18:26] Traintop, a P2 is fine. Not great, but it works. I have a P2/450 with 256 meg and it runs. [18:26] drcooper: ooh yes [18:26] drcooper: I do remember that [18:27] I had a slight problem with some games. I installed Warsow and AssaultCube on my Ubuntu box, played for a while, then updated my computer. Now, the mouse is not working within either of those programs, but other games work just fine. Is there a fix for this? [18:27] The mouse can click, but it does not move at all. [18:27] thanks ikonia..u rock [18:27] Traintop: if you'd like maximum speed, if you know how to compile you can use ubuntu but use the correctt C_FLAGs to build software specifically for your architechture [18:27] drcooper: all working ? [18:28] undecim: thanks [18:28] hello, ubuntu [18:28] ikonia started the install...working fine :) [18:28] drcooper: superb [18:28] !hi | chee [18:28] the machine I'm talking about now runs a linux-from-scratch and installing new packages takes a lot of time so I thought about installing ubuntu; it is my "floor-server" :-) -so, no screen, no keyboard; just a nic and a few hdds :-) [18:28] details on my setup? wich details? computer is an old laptop, im using the radeon driver for an ati mobility IGP 9100 PRO 128MB [18:28] !hello | chee [18:28] hmm... ubottu forgot how to greet people? [18:29] are there some compositor settings knocking about somewhere? i've set all my keyboard shortcuts in gnome, but none of them are working [18:29] the strange thing is why does glxgears cap on 60fps? [18:29] Traintop: if you don't mind hardwork, crux linux(look for the i586 version) is similar to lfs, but it has ports that can be easily built, rather than fully compiling [18:29] so now i have another problem, when i plug earphones in jack sound does not transfer [18:29] for instance, Mod4+M should now alter maximisation state, but instead it makes COLOURS INVERT [18:29] i allready had this problem with debian sometime ago [18:30] Chee: System>Preferences>Keyboard Shortcuts. [18:30] Chee: One of yours must be off [18:30] ok, wifi issue is fixed, removed network-manager and wicd is working fine =) === altin_ is now known as altin [18:30] Ah, apologies, did not see last post. [18:30] evenin' all [18:31] any one.... how to enable USB ports (modules) in Ubuntu 10.10 [18:31] hello all. i'm doing a dist upgrade to 10.10 but the upgrade has frozen at http://paste.ubuntu.com/511027/. is this known? last thing printed is Skipping profile in /etc/apparmor.d/disable: usr.sbin.cupsd [18:31] chee: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager; ccsm [18:31] Greetings, Wildc4rd. [18:31] Zavor: that's where i set them. but it does not make a difference what I set them to if I have any Visual Effects enabled [18:31] lahwran: hokay! [18:31] Konstigt: how long frozen is it? [18:31] oh and im using kubuntu.. maybe it can be something on KDE wich makes konsole cap to the screen fps?? [18:32] Chee: Curious. I've enabled all visual effects, and my keyboard shortcuts work just fine. Not sure how you'd fix that, sorry. [18:32] lahwran: hmm the computer suspended during the dist upgrade and i don't think it has resumed after that [18:32] Zavor: i think it's only for the ones where compiz has its own shortcut that overrides mine [18:32] Konstigt: how much time has passed since the hang? [18:32] lahwran: it's at 0% cpu so it doesn't seem to do anything right now [18:32] chee: Could be. Might be worth taking a look at. [18:32] Zavor: lahwran's suggestion should do it [18:33] Konstigt: again, how much time has passed? [18:33] *nods at Chee* [18:33] guys, i've just installed 10.10 and lots of stuff is happening. sound is gone (i removed pulseaudio and added my user to the audio group on 10.4) and flash is not working on firefox. any help? [18:33] lahwran: don't really know, started the upgrade many hours ago but haven't been observing the computer [18:33] Konstigt: I see. [18:33] sorry @ all who answered my questions: -I' ll just try booting the usb-stick and see what will happen :-) -cu and thanks a lot ! [18:33] Furi: "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer" [18:33] Are there going to be updates to rdesktop at some point? :( [18:33] Zavor: thanks, but what about the audio? [18:33] Furi: That will fix flash. [18:34] Konstigt: monitor it for 20 minutes, then if it hasn't come back to life I would stop it (carefully) and then start it again [18:34] Furi: What's your machine? [18:34] ubuntu 10.10 [18:34] Furi: And are we talking about music audio, or audio from the operating system functions? [18:34] furi: why did you remove pulse? [18:34] !tab | Zavor [18:34] Zavor: You can use your key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [18:34] Zavor: first one [18:35] well i think im going for googling [18:35] ChogyDan: the audio was skipping [18:35] stealth_, I also see references to Firefox using a file named cookies.txt to store cookies. Look for that file. You may just need to back it up. Since I don't have any cookies, I can't really test this. I expect you need Firefox stopped when you restore the file and maybe when you back it up. [18:35] cya [18:35] Furi: "sudo apt-get install restricted-extras" [18:35] lahwran: ok thanks. i can see two processes right now which seem to be related to the step it's at right now, http://paste.ubuntu.com/511028/ === F|ReSTaRT is now known as FiReSTaRT [18:35] Furi: Try that, installs codecs for mp3's, etc [18:35] Konstigt: oh wait, is it waiting for input?

[18:36] Zavor: says can't locate the package [18:36] is streamripper a standalone application or is it only inside streamtuner?

Lucid Lynx worked fine. ^0 [18:38] furi: Welcome, sir. Enjoy! [18:38] Cyberkilla: Wubi install, or did you install from USB/LiveCD? [18:38] It just hangs there with a flashing cursor. I can do an emergency unmount/reboot, so sysreq works. Nothing else though.. [18:38] 10.10 works really well.. once more i'm amazed... in love all over again.. jeez [18:38] Are there any known problems with ubuntu 10.10 and nvidia driver?

[18:39] I can't get x to start after installing the nvidia driver [18:39] Cyberkilla, sorry. I do know the bug with hibernating with Wubi, but I don't know the cause if you upgraded from LiveCD. [18:39] ChogyDan, lets say im playing pandora radio, how would i use streamripper to record the music from that? [18:39] glithcd: I was sending that to a different person [18:39] ChogyDan, whoopa.. [18:39] ChogyDan, sry [18:39] np [18:39] Zavor: Thanks anyway;-) I think it was a kernel update, frankly. It just suddently stopped working. [18:40] ChogyDan, do u know if i can use streamripper to record other stuff besides streamtuner? [18:40] Is there a backports repo for Lucid? I need libgtk1.2 [18:40] Zavor: It's two steps forward, three steps back for me with Ubuntu :-) [18:40] markus___: what does dkms status say?

[18:43] trism are there any other applications that do the same thing? [18:43] Hello all. Just did an upgrade on my work desktop from Ubuntu x64 10.04 to 10.10. Went from a working compiz to now getting "compiz (core) - Warn: No GLXFBConfig for depth 32". Checked my xorg.conf file and showing DefaultDepth was already set to 24. Did a diff on the different xorg.conf's and no changes for a long time. Home desktop upgrade went perfect. Both Nvidia drivers. Tried the #compiz channel but does not appear to be a chatty bunch. [18:43] trism, something i can use to record pandora/pithos streams? [18:44] how do i upgrade my l-ubuntu? [18:44] to the latest release/version [18:44] when I add a samba share using the GUI where does it get saved? [18:44] !upgrade | zebastianortis [18:44] zebastianortis: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [18:44] trinoth1 - I read somewhere that there was a problem with the 64 bit install [18:44] zebastianortis, "sudo apt-get install l-ubuntu" [18:44] its not in ~/smb/smb.conf [18:44] darael: ive been trying to get ubuntu to even boot on my Nehemiah cpy system. has 1 gb of ram and 1ghz proc. just stops after the dots stop moving [18:44] zebastianortis, Will update it if not currently the highest version on your system.

[18:45] far as i can tell it meets minimum requirememnts [18:45] is the 64-bit install buggy? [18:45] should i download the 32-bit version [18:45] Severian: no it doesn't :( i dont think it even asks for a password wieh I create the share so it should be in my hoe directory [18:45] DaBajan: Thanks for the reply. I can at least state it worked on my home computer without a hitch (test before commiting my work desktop). [18:45] KeithWeisshar: 64bit will be about as buggy as the 32bit [18:45] ChogyDan: thx, think the two cams are messing each other up. but maybe just not compatible [18:45] is there anyway to limit the amount of bandwidth used when running the upgrade? Every time I start to upgrade I kill all the bandwidth at work! [18:46] KeithWeisshar: I would say the upgrade was flawless. At least I can still work without compiz. [18:46] glithcd: I do not know of anything, sorry (it likely exists though, somewhere) [18:46] Zavor: if i do that will my files be kept?

[18:51] andre_pl, I still can't tell which direction. What the directory being shared on your machine, or were you accessing a share from another machine?

[18:52] philsf, Then you can "sudo apt-get install gwibber" to reinstall and reconfigure it [18:52] TheSqueak: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [18:53] andre_pl. Maybe there are communications problems here. I still have no idea which direction you were sharing. [18:53] how can i download vmware in terminal? [18:53] philsf: if you upgraded from lucid to maverick, they were originally kept in couchdb, so you can delete them from the couchdb console by going to ~/.local/share/desktop-couch/couchdb.html , in maverick they are kept in a sqlite database in ~/.config/gwibber [18:53] philsf, To reconfigure them entirely you'll have to purge the package. If not, then just delete all accounts. [18:54] triptec: That is, run something like "HISTFILE=" beforehand, and then either restart the shell (log out and in or close the terminal) or run HISFILE=~/.bash_history when done.

[18:54] So I've got my problem with the booting to command line sorted, however my moniter keeps giving me mode not supported errors (I know it boots to GNOME because of the music).. how do I fix that? [18:54] Anyone know where /dev/dsp is in 10.10? I've upgraded fine, but some games I was using alsa-oss sound for have no sound. I noticed /dev/dsp doesn't exist either.

[18:54] leife: doesn't exist [18:54] Mortur, What kind of problem? Elaborate please. [18:54] leife: lol [18:54] [18:55] wow they're talking about fox and open source on cnn ;) [18:55] Zavor, the desktop crashes, and i have to log in again [18:55] !vmware [18:55] VMWare is not available in the Ubuntu repositories.

[18:56] philsf: some of the config is also contained in gconf /apps/gwibber, it had trouble importing my accounts on upgrade as well, but it worked after I deleted those keys and reconfigured them in the gwibber preferences (which is odd, but it worked) [18:56] Mortur, Sorry, haven't experienced that, and I wouldn't know how to fix it without possibly doing other damage. [18:56] andre_pl, OK. I understand now. You looked in /etc/samba/smb.conf and did not find it. So, let's look in your home dir. What was the directory name that you used to share? [18:56] lol wow...i finally download and burn 10.4 and 10.1 is released...too fast...releases ;p [18:56] Can someone pls help me? [18:56] Mortur, you COULD try purging/reinstalling the applications, but no guarantee that it would help you. [18:56] I'm trying to install 10.10 Netbook Edition, but the instructions here (http://www.ubuntu.com/netbook/get-ubuntu/download) are incorrect. [18:57] samosa: You may want to stick to LTS releases if you're having trouble keeping up with the regular ones... :P. You don't have to deal with potential breakage so often, either. [18:57] can i use streamripper to record anything other than streamtuner? [18:57] trism, I didn't know the storage backend changed. It imported well from lucid, but I could't post to facebook. After deleting the FB setting, I can't create a new one [18:57] just installed ubuntu 10.10. it's good :) [18:57] rushmc, How are they incorrect, exactly? [18:57] Severian: 'Television' i did a grep -iR television * from my home directory and it found nothing [18:57] Universal USB installer does not offer the 10.10 Netbook option, so I can't continue with installation. [18:57] It has the desktop version, but not the netbook. [18:57] where to report bugs in wiki.ubuntu.com user accounts? [18:58] rushmc, Just do 10.04, then install it and you can update to 10.10 from inside Ubuntu. [18:58] when i change settings. i got "This email already belongs to somebody else." [18:58] rushmc, USB Installer has not been updated for Ubuntu 10.10 yet, though. [18:58] i was just surfing about what's new and i read about the unity interface on ubuntu netbooks, can we get it for the desktop edition? [18:58] I can't. My connection won't allow me to download that much. It was all I could do to get Netbook dl last night. [18:58] So basically, there IS no way to install Netbook 10.10? [18:59] rushmc, Not for you, unless you get a CD from Canonical. [18:59] I see that some of the applications I have cannot be reinstalled from Synaptic, I've tried reinstalling f.ex Opera from Opera's .deb .. but still crashes x. Another thing i see is that the Nvidia driver is listed as "activated, but not in use".. whatever that means [18:59] when Ubuntu 10.10 has been officially released? [18:59] Can't I burn my own from the ISO I dl? [18:59] Hello, yesterday i upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook on my Eee PC 901, but i cannot get the Wireless network working? [18:59] Wraith_ : yesterday [18:59] seiner: Not exactly, but you can add the interface and choose to boot into it, should be fully functional. [18:59] andre_pl, that is what I was going to suggest. [18:59] how do i find what port pithos is playing on? [18:59] oh [18:59] rushmc, Good idea. Yes, you can [18:59] philsf: may try just deleting the ~/.config/gwibber/gwibber.sqlite and trying to configure it again [18:59] Wraith_ : 10.10.10 :))) [18:59] :33 [18:59] So just ignore the instructions that say I have to use a USB stick and burn the ISO to a disc normally? [19:00] can i upgrade from 10.04 ? [19:00] andre_pl, If I think of anything else, I'll post it. [19:00] trism, this looks quicker, I'll try that [19:00] yes Wraith_ [19:00] darael: hm... well i'll give it a shot, it looked cool [19:00] clone`KillaloT, You may have proprietary drivers. Make sure they're installed correctly. [19:00] how do i find what port pithos is playing on? [19:00] rushmc, Pretty much. [19:00] okay, thanks :) [19:00] Oh I see the devs decided we don't need OSS support anymore. How kind. [19:00] heh [19:00] seiner: Do let us know how it goes for you. [19:00] ok who was helping me with encrypting my $HOME [19:00] rushmc, Welcome, sir. Good luck. [19:01] what port does pandora radio/pithos play on? [19:01] darael: ya, trying to get it now [19:01] Zavor : "There are no proprietary drivers in use on this system" [19:01] Zavor : when i search for drivers [19:01] tacomaster: It was undecim, I believe. [19:01] undecim: you there? [19:01] tacomaster: Hi [19:02] tacomaster: How did the migration go? [19:02] just to confirm, I should install unity to get the UNE version on my computer? [19:02] i go to update 10.0 4 to 10.10 and it says Do not install it on production machines. should I upgrade? [19:02] undecim: ok i ran both commands i have a back up but all my files are locked [19:02] anyone, how do i find out what port pandoa radio/pithos is playing on? [19:02] clone`KillaloT: you might have to open the repository for more stuf like universe [19:02] nowimproved: How are you attempting to upgrade? [19:02] clone`KillaloT, Right-click the networking icon, make sure "Enable Wireless" is chcked. [19:02] Pici, update-manager -d [19:02] *checked [19:02] tacomaster: Did you see your files with "ls" after logging in from the recovery console? [19:02] when a application crashes the desktop, witch log could I look in? [19:03] nowimproved: The -d switch means that you want to upgrade to a Development release. Don't use that. [19:03] i need help please.. i just updated to 10.10 and i have problem with my a4tech wireless mouse. everything else works fine [19:03] undecim: yea [19:03] what do you use Pici ? [19:03] nowimproved, I would not expect it to say that since Yesterday. When did you see that message? [19:03] Mortur, System>Administration>Log File Viewer. Look at those. [19:03] tacomaster: Do you have automatic login enabled? If you do, you need to turn that off, because your password is needed to decrypt your files. [19:03] is unity the package to install to get UNE? [19:03] hi i need help, i installed ubuntu 10.10 and sound and video playback is choppy. please help [19:03] undecim: no i typed in my password to login [19:04] nowimproved, Like Pici said, leave off -d [19:04] Mortur, Take a look at the Xorgs [19:04] nowimproved: Just run update-manager without any arguments. If its not prompting you, look into your software sources and make sure that you have it set to upgrade to non-lts releases. [19:04] tacomaster: By locked, do you mean that you can't get to them, or they have the "lock" icon on them in the file manager? [19:04] Zavor: are there any particular log?, or could i just search for "error" , or something? [19:04] Zavor : i only got to active normal network, not wireless. That might have something to do with it :D [19:04] I'm old and like old stuff, I like to try the new release in virtualbox where I can try it without breaking anything I already have [19:04] both i cant click on them and it has a lock icon on them as well as a x icon on them [19:05] how do i find out what port pandora radio/pithos is playing on?? [19:05] clone`KillaloT, You get it fixed then? [19:05] mistrynitesh: pretty much, though there are also differences between the default applications selection on UNE and UDE [19:05] Zavor : don't know, but if there should both be a normal network and wireless in the menu, that's the first step i guess :D [19:05] hi i need help, i installed ubuntu 10.10 and sound and video playback is choppy. please help [19:05] tacomaster: According to the properties dialog, who owns the files, and what permissions are there? [19:05] Mortur, Be honest with you, I'd have no idea. You ought to check with the ubuntuforums.org forums. Very useful. [19:05] ok thanks Pici had to change the software sources like you said [19:06] mistrynitesh: If you want everything from the Netbook Edition, install ubuntu-netbook instead. [19:06] Zavor : I'm kinda new, so i gotta find out how to activate it in the first place, but if i'm bothering you guys here with such simple questions it might be messed up :D [19:06] undecim: says that the own is root [19:06] glebihan: and where do I find unity after installing it? [19:06] mitchell08, Try this in terminal: "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras" and try playing it again [19:06] clone`KillaloT, No worries, man, that's what we're here for. [19:06] tacomaster: That's odd. These are the files in your newly encrypted home directory, correct? [19:06] i installed the restricted extras already [19:06] darael: ubuntu-netbook is different from Unity? [19:06] undecim: yep [19:06] Ok thanks, I have done a cupple of google searches.. but i guess i have installed to much "not supported crap" without knowing what i was doing... [19:07] mistrynitesh: I believe it will set itself as the default desktop environment, if not you can change this in System->Administration->Login Screen [19:07] i need help please.. i just updated to 10.10 and i have problem with my a4tech wireless mouse. everything else works fine [19:07] i need help please.. i just updated to 10.10 and i have problem with my a4tech wireless mouse. everything else works fine [19:07] mitchell08, Not sure then, man. SOrry. [19:07] tacomaster: Alright, try running "sudo chmod username:username /home/username", then log out, and back in [19:07] undecim: doesnt supprise me i kept getting an SERROR: when i did my encryption [19:07] mistrynitesh: It has dependencies for any all the netbook edition apps, including any that may be different from the desktop edition. [19:07] afk [19:07] it plays fine for a few minutes, then gets choppy and skips [19:07] i go upgrade [19:08] trism, erasing gwibber's sqlite db worked for facebook! it re-imported the old settings, but let me conclude the creation of new accounts. thanks!

[19:08] lolgnaa [19:08] philsf: excellent! you're welcome [19:08] no Zavor [19:09] undecim: yea but i dont remeber to be honest it looked like it was in hexadecimal [19:09] andre_pl. Thanks. That's interesting and makes some sense. [19:09] clone`KillaloT, Damn. Might be a question for the guys at ubuntuforums.org. Very helpful people there, try that. [19:09] undecim: ok that command gave me an error [19:09] Zavor : iwconfig says no wireless extensions for lo and eth0 [19:09] Zavor : i will try to see if it's disabled in BIOS [19:10] clone`KillaloT, BIOS would have nothing to do with wireless. [19:10] undecim: chmod: invalid mode: 'username:username' ( and use i did my actual username not "username" [19:10] andre_pl, I always edit /etc/samba/smb.conf by hand, but the desktop helper probably doesn't want to touch that. [19:10] clone`KillaloT, eth0 is Ethernet and lo is something else. [19:10] tacomaster: Ah, sorry that should have been chown, not chmod [19:10] Also, make that chown -R [19:10] Severian: same, It was a friend that set it up and I gave him heck for it :) [19:10] clone`KillaloT: maybe lsusb or lspci a pastebin [19:11] I hate pulseaudio [19:11] undecim: so reboot? [19:11] Just happened to install the unity interface on my desktop edition. works smooth :D [19:11] I want it off my system but it takes the gnome-volume-control applet [19:11] Faethin, That's a cynical outlook on it. [19:11] Removing OSS from the kernel was a really boneheaded move I have to say. [19:11] tacomaster: No, log out then login after it changes owner properly [19:11] Zavor : just went to BIOS and it actually HAD disabled the wireless.. , lets see if i can find my network now when booting up. 2 sec [19:11] tacomaster: Rebooting is overkill [19:11] is anyone else having the same 64-bit installation problem with a new gtx 400 series video card? [19:12] hi [19:12] clone`KillaloT, How the hell? You must be running some odd system, mate, because BIOS shouldn't handle your wireless device. At that, I have to say "What the hell?" [19:12] Faethin, I tried to remove pulse and it wants to take ubuntu-desktop with it. [19:12] how can i use streamripper to record other streaming applications?? [19:12] All because some genius had to remove OSS from the kernel. [19:12] is it just me, or does anyone else like the previous netbook UI? [19:12] Zavor : nice, now it connects :) [19:12] prefer the* [19:12] mawst: exactly [19:12] mawst: ubuntu-desktop is actually an empty package [19:12] clone`KillaloT, You're all set then. Enjoy, sir. [19:12] FoxWolf_Netbook, It is just you. [19:12] T.T [19:13] yah [19:13] I just find it more complcated [19:13] Is there a way of keeping the applet while removing pulseaudio? [19:13] Zavor: depends, on some system, the BIOS handles the wireless card (I know it does on mine, and I don't consider my system as odd) [19:13] Zavor: in a laptop in an internal installed device you might be able to disable it in bios. [19:13] Zavor : hahaha :D odd system? :DD I only run Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook on this machine.. upgraded from Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook. But yea, thanks for your help :) [19:13] mawst: As long as it's not taking everything else with, you're fine. The ubuntu-desktop package is just there to have other packages as dependencies, so that you can apt-get install ubuntu-desktop to install all the packages that come with ubuntu-desktop [19:13] but to be fair, the new ubuntu did work with my wifi out of the box [19:13] I thought my problem had to do with my custom kernel I was forced to use, but with the new release and the new generic kernel I still have problems with pulseaudio [19:14] glebihan, I've just never heard of that before. I find it a bit out of the ordinary, that's all. [19:14] does anyone know of a way to turn on timestamps for channels in empathy? [19:14] sacarlson, *nods* [19:14] FoxWolf_Netbook , yea, so far i liked the old Netbook remix better. [19:14] So anyone, is there a way of keeping the volume control applet while removing pulseaudio? [19:14] FoxWolf_Netbook, I gotta say I agree. I wish there was a place to put files on the desktop, but having all those icons mashed together on the left wasn't a great solution. [19:14] FoxWolf_Netbook, The file searching thing in unity + all sliding icons requires a bit too much for a 1.6 Ghz processor. [19:14] nvm [19:15] Faethin, Yes, but it is not simple and you'll have to reaseach that yourself. [19:15] lold, maybe we can revert back to the old desktop [19:15] undecim: ok i ran the chown command with out a error but its still owned by root? [19:15] Severian: :/ [19:15] how can i use streamripper to record pithos a pandora radio client? [19:15] i want to install vmware player using terminal...how can i do it? [19:15] Severian: I'm not computer savvy [19:16] Severian: I guess I'll have to suck it up and go on without the applet === pat|nG is now known as wizkey [19:16] tacomaster: What is the output of "mount | grep ecryptfs"? [19:16] in my syslog http://pastebin.com/2cFcDLvH as you can see i have this ouput in line 92: # Oct 11 17:27:28 lluis-3000-N200 kernel: [ 0.000000] ACPI: BIOS bug: multiple APIC/MADT found, using 0 [19:16] nice, both cams working in luvcview, just not in anything else [19:16] wizkey, Try "virtualbox-ose" instead. Open source, and much easier to install. [19:16] !grub2 [19:16] Faethin, Then, it is not likely to be something you will get done properly. Live with pulseaudio. It gets better each release. [19:16] GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Ubuntu 9.10. For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [19:16] i have the bios updated, how can i solve this problem? [19:16] hi can anyone help me.my network in disable after upgrading to ubuntu 10.10 === shcherba1 is now known as shcherbak [19:17] Severian: does pulseaudio *really* get better with every release? [19:17] Faethin, Depends. What [19:17] Severian: again, I'm not savvy, but I've been with Ubuntu since 8.04 [19:17] hello, I don't know if I missed this during upgrade, but after upgrading to Ubuntu 10.10 from 10.04 I rebooted and got an old kernel, apparently menu.lst did not get updated to use the new kernel option, instead kept my old number 4 on the list. Is this normal or a bug? [19:17] Faethin, *What's your problem with it anyway? [19:17] Faethin: I've noticed pulse is getting better [19:17] pls help me enabling my network [19:17] hi there. I've updated my ubuntu yesterday, but did no choose to update to maveric. Today it got down and when i try to start it, it goes to a dark place, where initramfs rules :S any idea? [19:17] Zavor: here's the deal [19:17] Faethin, I would say yes. It used to crash my sound system fairly often. It rarely does now. [19:17] undecim: http://pastebin.com/vvAN5gvW [19:18] hi there my friend updated kubuntu 9.10 to 10.10 and it broke the whole system! he cannot login anymore, but he sees the kdm login! what should he do? cause he cannot access the terminal via crtl-alt->F1 [19:18] Zavor: When I start up the login sounds begins playing but is suddenly cut off [19:18] Pulse skips for me. [19:18] Alchimista, It goes to France? [19:18] It lags behind like minutes in games like etqw [19:18] Zavor: then when I go to the sound recorder it's completely locked up, as if something were utilising the mic at the moment [19:18] plan_rich: Perhaps your friend can ask directly? Playing a game of telephone to fix something is annoying at best. :) [19:18] Severian: not sure, he does not talk to me :s [19:18] I need OSS back for just about everything. [19:18] tacomaster: Did you add the "-R" earlier? I left that out of my first message, but mentioned it in a second. [19:18] Faethin, Could be your hardware. I've never had this problem at all with pulse. [19:18] Zavor: If I tap on my mic, I can hear the feedback on my speakers - as if the mic was always open [19:19] I have no idea how to compile the module for it [19:19] well he does not have a running system now :( [19:19] how can i use streamripper to record pithos a pandora radio client? [19:19] undecim: no i never did a -R [19:19] Faethin, I'd check all your I/O settings within the sound console. [19:19] tacomaster: Hehe... sorry that's my fault [19:19] undecim: lol np [19:19] in this part of my syslog http://pastebin.com/2cFcDLvH i have a bug in line 92, i have bios updated, how can i solve it? [19:19] Zavor: I thought this had to do with the fact that I was using a custom kernel. I had to, because of the whole Toshiba Satellite debacle (which you can google and find very easily) [19:19] tacomaster: sudo chown -R username:username /home/username. The relog [19:19] well he'is on phone so i can ask him right away... [19:20] Faethin, Oh, god, Toshiba. Don't get me started :-P [19:20] Faethin and use gstreamer-properties to test it [19:20] do i put a peroid after /home/username? [19:20] Zavor: now that I'm finally using the generic kernel I'm getting the saaame problem [19:20] i am having problems with hibernation not working on my laptop. it si *very slwo* to take effect and never revives. [19:20] Zavor: yeah, I learnt about Toshiba's beef with Linux only after I'd purchased my lappy [19:20] Severian: any idea on how to fix it? [19:20] tacomaster: no [19:21] Faethin, *wince* [19:21] Zavor: but my Sat was the only lappy I could afford at the time [19:21] Don't go to France, Alchimista. === Claudinux_ is now known as Claudinux [19:21] undecim: lol now it look like it did something actually took a second to complete [19:21] Faethin, "At the time" means you probably have a bit more to work with now. I'd suggest using it wisely. :-) [19:21] tacomaster: yeah. It did it for every file in your home dir this time, instead of just the dir itself [19:22] Zavor: the thing is, when I remove pulseaudio, ALSA manages things perfectly - except for the applet [19:22] tacomaster: Now you should relog again so that your desktop apps can open the files they should be using. [19:22] Privacy0, Wubi install or partitioned install? [19:22] undecim: ok [19:22] question, I'm in the process of updating from lucid to maverick, and now it's stopped asking for a password to mount partitions. Why is this, and how can I restore the password? [19:22] * mawst grumbles and wanders off to compile an OSS module [19:22] Zavor: so you could say that it's only a minor inconvenience... but it's still there, after nearly six months [19:22] Alchimista, I did not understand your problem, other than moving your computer to the dark place(France, I assume, to quote John Adams) [19:22] Zavor: PArtioned install. [19:23] Faethin, Yeah. Might be something to mention on the forums and see if anyone has another fix. Ubuntuforums.org [19:23] Zavor: actually, i did mean the system audio. i was sort of confused with the question. sorry. [19:23] Using ubuntu 10.04, I've noticed that Ubuntu One has totally removed my folder with my work and replaced it with an old unsynchronized version, the one lying on the Ubuntu One. Any way to recover my files? [19:23] i want to install vmware player using terminal...how can i do it? [19:23] furi, Ah. Well, then, I've no idea. [19:23] Zavor: ooooh, there's this rather long and comprehensive thread about the evulz of Toshiba [19:23] Zavor: but as I was saying, I'm not cs-literate :p [19:24] Maybe 'Ubuntu One' didn't remove the files, rather nautilus or some other part of Ubuntu replaced the files, however, I'm most interesting in any way to recover. [19:24] Tarrasch, #ubuntuone [19:24] Faethin, I don't doubt it. Toshibas are like Lexus cars. They look sexy, sound sexier, but underneath it is just that damn Toyota motor. [19:24] Zavor: I've fixed a lot of problems but at core I'm no programmer [19:24] Alchimista, If your system is not booting the GUI up, try going to a virtual console, login and do the updates from there. [19:24] At last! Hi everyone [19:24] undecim: ok what is the easiest way to test encryption to make sure [19:24] Zavor: well thanks for your help anyway [19:24] Privacy0, Ouch. Sorry, no idea. If it was a Wubi install, I'd know how to fix it, but as it's not... [19:25] tacomaster: Well, you can create a new file with a unique name, go to a livecd, and search for that file === mike_ is now known as Guest65691 [19:25] I'll have a question in about 15 minutes [19:25] When I try to activate additional drivers for my wifi card I get "SystemError: installArchives() failed". How do I fix this? [19:25] tacomaster: Although the results from mount | grep ecryptfs tells me that encryption is working [19:25] Faethin, Sure thing. Good luck, man. [19:25] wont i have to mount dev/sd1? [19:25] tacomaster, test the randomness of your drive. Good encryption should look like random data. [19:25] tacomaster: You can look at /home/.ecryptfs/username and see all your encrypted files [19:26] Zavor: Thanks anyway.

[19:38] right click and check if enable wireless is checked [19:38] preetam: right click and check if enable wireless is checked [19:38] hello [19:38] undecim: ok i copyed and pasted i think its doing its thing [19:38] juliohm, use gdm2login or ubuntu tweak [19:38] Hi, i have no network card after upgrading to 10.10. I have a new asus p7p55d motherboard with a Realtek RTL8111/8168B card. Can someone help me? I got nothing from google. [19:38] Good evening [19:39] A CD boot can bee real slow, if your CD drive is slow. Interrupting a CD boot should not affect anything, Alchimista . [19:39] drcooper: enable wireless does not appearing. rather the enable networking is disbaled. [19:39] tacomaster: Okay. When that command compeltes, only directories, symlinks, and pipes should be left [19:39] Does anybody know anything about real time kernel? [19:39] undecim: but normaly with this type of encryption it's only good if your laptop is physicaly stolen that it has any value [19:39] Also known as low latency kernels [19:39] !kernel | Celtibero [19:39] Celtibero: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages [19:39] preetam is ethernet working? [19:40] preetam: is network-manager running ? [19:40] AbhiJit, tnks === XLV_ is now known as XLV [19:40] juliohm, welcome [19:40] tacomaster: While it's working, there is something else I would advise doing. [19:40] yes i am connected to internet through ethernet only.. [19:40] !rosegarden [19:40] undecim:ok whats that [19:40] how to know whether network manager is running or not. [19:40] tacomaster: Running "ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase" will unwrap your encryption key and print it to the terminal... [19:40] preetam: forget about it if ethernet is working [19:41] preetam: ps -A |grep network [19:41] tacomaster: If something ever goes wrong, you need that key to decrypt your files if unwrapping your passphrase doesn't work for whatever reason. [19:41] preetam: but for the record : sudo service network-manager status === Celtibero is now known as Alberto [19:41] undecim: ok [19:41] tacomaster: In my case, I have that put into a text file, put in an encrypted 7zip file, and stored on a CD-ROM [19:42] I try to upgrade to maverick, but it say that there is no new version when I run sudo do-release-upgrade? [19:42] hi all === Alberto is now known as Alberto_Spain [19:42] hai sudo service network-manager status this gives network-manager stop/waiting. [19:42] Hi all, I've a problem with the update-manager... here's the log file : http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/src-96788 if someone's got an idea! [19:42] undecim: have to go for a sec will be back in like 5 mins [19:42] sudo do-release-upgrade -d isnt showing mav too afeijo [19:42] ? [19:42] tacomaster: It's advisable to do something similar, otherwise the wrapped passphrase in the .ecryptfs directory becomes a single point of failure. If that file disappears, you can never unlock your files again. [19:42] undecim: I'm not sure about 7zip but zip encryption is not hard to break [19:43] now with -d it is downloading [19:43] sacarlson: 7zip uses the same encryption as ecryptfs [19:43] thanks [19:43] help http://imagebin.org/118033 [19:43] i've ubuntu 10.04 on netbook. i followed the tutorial on website to upgrade..i make all the little updates...then i reboot...i re-open upgrade windows but i don't get the distro upgrade...i also tried with sud apt-get dist-upgrade but nothing...have you any idea? [19:43] sacarlson: As long as you choose a strong password, it's tough to break. [19:43] this is dmesg [19:43] undecim: I guess that's why I broke the zip file I forgot it was only 5 leters [19:44] sacarlson: lol [19:44] lol it asked Sim (yes in my language) to confirm, so its the S leter? no, S dont work, worked with Y HAHAH [19:44] sparkling, do this in terminal: "sudo update-manager -d" [19:44] hi, i just upgraded to maverick. or rather tried to, or rather am still trying to. the dist-upgrade utility apparently fails to correctly assess the required free disk space. [19:44] i have just upgraded to maverick and i can't hear any sounds [19:44] Zavor: ok thanks i will try [19:45] undecim: what hash to they use? sha1? [19:45] so it failed for me, somewhaere in the middle, leaving me with a half updated system [19:45] after a little tweaking i got the sound to work [19:45] but i can't hear music === RickiiBEAT is now known as BEIITA [19:45] sparkling, Sure thing. Let me know if the distro pops up near the top of the window. [19:45] sup [19:45] so i updated to 10.10 [19:45] as you do [19:45] luckily i'm a somewhat advanced linux user, other users will run into trouble there. [19:45] and then BAM no sound [19:45] bahaa2008, do this in Terminal: "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras" [19:45] sacarlson: 7zip I think runs the password through MD5 or SHA1 (i forget which) several times, then uses that as the key for AES 256 [19:45] what would be the reason to upgrade rather than stay with lts ? [19:46] undecim: send me a text file with a 7zip and see if I can crack it [19:46] * bruteforce_allti wants suggestion for browser appart from regular firefox in ubuntu :) [19:46] Zavor, do u think it's codec issue ? [19:46] bruteforce_allti, "sudo apt-get install chromium-browser" [19:46] btw, to ubuntu web designers: page looks like steve jobs will popup there any minute now [19:46] undecim: it's SHA [19:46] bruteforce_allti, It's Chrome for Ubuntu, and an excellent browser.

Install the package I directed you to, and then try listening to mp3 files, or something [19:47] blakkheim: Larger keyspace, etc... [19:47] Zavor: it works! thanks to much! [19:47] Zavor, i installed the packages [19:47] sparkling, Welcome! Enjoy! [19:47] undecim: yeah it makes cracking 7z files pretty slow :( [19:47] bahaa2008, Try listening to music or something [19:47] for sure ;) [19:48] Zavor, nothing new [19:48] undecim: sha1 should be good it's what the entire SSL encrytped crypts relay on today so I hope it's good or my bank would not have money in it. [19:48] Zavor, tried mplayer & rythmbox [19:48] Zavor: Thank you. Installing it. [19:48] bahaa2008, Go to the sound settings and make sure the programs aren't muted. [19:48] Zavor, when i say someting in the microphone i hear it on the headset [19:49] yo I'm using synergy to share my mouse between 2 ubuntu machines, I hook up my notebook through hdmi to my 23 inch monitor and turn off the laptop screen [19:49] I just did the upgrade to 10.10 and all i get is a shell login? [19:49] What can I do to get my GUI running? [19:49] Zavor, i tested this before [19:49] bruteforce_allti, Welcome, sir. Enjoy it, it's quite fun. Don't forget to grab Java and Flash for your browsers to enable all Internet content! [19:49] but synergy settings remain for the same resolution as the original laptop screen [19:49] thechitowncubs: that's all you need :) [19:49] Hi (again) are there any X.org experts that can help me to get nvidia card working with 10.10 (maverick)? [19:49] blakkheim, bahhhh [19:49] about a 3rd of the screen is unusable, anyone know how to remap synergy when hooking up an external display? [19:50] thechitowncubs: try "sudo service gdm start" [19:50] sacarlson: I've got the encrypted 7zip... uploading it... [19:50] markus1: well I have a nvidia card but don't run 10.10 yet. my guess is you need to recompile the driver [19:50] :) [19:50] markus1: I'm not an expert, but my observation today has been that people have the most success disabling the proprietary drivers and using nouveau. [19:50] Zavor, i removed all alsa and pulseaudio related stuff and reinstalled every thing [19:50] glebihan, job is already running :/ [19:50] undecim: I hope it's small [19:50] Zavor, nothing happened too [19:50] sacarlson: It is. http://www.mediafire.com/?oa0wr7j4odbw42a [19:51] thechitowncubs: try Ctrl+Atl+F7 or F8 to see if it's there [19:51] Jeez!

[19:51] *u [19:51] seeing as though i dont have any [19:51] I used karmic before and the nvidia card workded well with it [19:52] prince_jammys: hi [19:52] snomi, Are you missing sound in the operating system, or do you just find it impossible to play music, etc? [19:52] hi is it necessary to install the ATI properietary driver for my ATI card? [19:52] Zavor, my audio device " 00:09.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP73 High Definition Audio (rev a1)" [19:52] glebihan, nope :/ [19:52] hi [19:52] thechitowncubs: ok then try "sudo service gdm restart" [19:52] is it save to use ubuntu right now?

[19:52] hey fellas [19:52] how do i get an image of ubuntu to run in a virtual machine? [19:53] Newbuntu, you need to install it in the vm [19:53] Zavor: drivers bugged [19:53] hey, gnome crashed as I was upgrading to 10.10, im guessing its the process "/usr/bin/python /tmp/tmpt_NE5C/maverick" which is still running at 95% of 1 processors CPU - it has been running for 2h50min. is it still working, or has it died, and how can I tell?

Im getting "ava.lang.IllegalStateException: Only one LWJGL context may be instantiated at any one time." [19:53] An ideas?

[19:55] undecim: that's cheating now I have a clue. that make it even easier [19:55] bahaa2008, To be honest, I'm not sure. Try posting at ubuntuforums.org, they're pretty effective there. :-) [19:55] thechitowncubs: no error messages ?

Any ideas on how I could see the drive again? [19:55] Zavor, thanks for the help [19:55] undecim: I think you might be correct [19:55] sacarlson: Are you writing a script or something to try every password? [19:55] bahaa Sure.

[20:02] bye gn [20:02] someone know about ati catalyst 10.10 driver, will it be available in maverick after it has been released later this month [20:03] why doesn't maverick have rhythmbox and liferea in the notification area? [20:03] tacomaster: The shred command may take longer then, since it has to overwrite it in a special way. The options I gave should make it only write 0's instead of doing random data (since there is really no point to overwriting it with random data 3 times) [20:03] how can i make wirless card connect to intenet on dell vostro 1015.cant connect to network but cant seem to connect to internet [20:03] krogers0001: liferea is in the indicator applet in maverick (as is rhythmbox) [20:03] Jibadeeha, Nope. Some things require swap, like hibernate. Additionally if you are using all your ram at once the system will start to crawl if you don't have a swap. [20:03] forgot to mention, i have no sound. [20:03] krogers0001: rhythmbox is integrated in the sound indicator [20:03] thank you [20:03] undecim: is it recoverable after this finishes? [20:03] Jibadeeha, I recommend 1Gb ~ 2Gb of swap. [20:04] anyone who is using gtx 295 with ubuntu? [20:04] tacomaster: After this is done, the unencrypted files will be irrecoverable. The only way to get to them will be with your password === `mOOse` is now known as m00se [20:04] edbian, time for me to google how i encrypt swap [20:04] undecim: ok cool [20:04] Newbuntu, another useful tip, if you want someone to respond to you, use their full name to "ping" them - if you use my full name, it shows up in red, meaning that it is special to me :-) [20:05] im installing the iso image on virtualbox but i think it messed up lol [20:05] nvm it worked fine tesseracter [20:05] tacomaster: Though there is one more thing I usually do after migrating a directory to ecryptfs. I open a live cd and make a big file full of zeros to fill up the free space on the drive, which should overwrite any blocks that once had files. [20:05] can someone help me with pulseaudio? it was reinstalled in the update from 10.04 to 10.10, and now sound isn't working, and in the hardware tab under sound preferences, no devices are shown. what should i do? [20:06] anybody used a thinkpad l512 with ubuntu 10.10? [20:06] Ubuntu 10.10 clean: Somehow Rhythmbox appears on all my workspaces. Can I turn this off?

I solve 80% of my problems as I'm writing the question onto IRC, then i delete it because i've already figured it out. [20:08] tacomaster: Well, doing this shred and doing the big zero file (which I can help you with as well) will remove all traces of the unencrypted data from the hard drive.

[20:13] llutz: got 3 entries: tcp, tcp versin 6 and udp [20:13] tacomaster: So the other command is still working? [20:13] because older versions have issues with xorg 1.9 font rendering [20:14] LauraCecilia: For something that's so hardware specific you may very well have better luck asking on the forums. :-) [20:14] undecim: i would assume [20:14] all 0.0.0.0.:631 or equivalent and it says LISTEN [20:14] tacomaster: Okay, it just hasn't gotten to those files yet. [20:14] pickles , you need to turn off journaling of HFS+ [20:14] BlueDominion until ubuntu 9.10 it worked [20:14] krzyhoo: ok, so cups listens to the network [20:14] was hoping to use jounaled HFS+ [20:14] 10.04 doesn't work on hp laptops [20:14] tesseracter: yeah. I also advice my fellow classmates to go this way. At present the problem is that I have too many things installed in ubuntu and I don't want them to install again. Thanks to my internet speed.

[20:17] legacy is thinking a bit longer, but still reports an error [20:17] BlueDominion that is right... it was handled "naturally" by the OS [20:18] sasa84: if it works on live CD, it should work once installed [20:18] Alchimista, This error occurs during the boot. Prior to this point, there is an opportunity to choose a kernel. Try booting with a different kernel. I gor Lucid trying to boot a PAE kernel somehow and it would die just like yours. Booting an earlier kernel worked for me. [20:18] undecim: but as you said eariler about scriptless browseing just turn of javascript right?

[20:18] internet is too slow [20:18] bruteforce_allti, you can move your .deb cache from a virtual machine to the main new machine, then you dont need to download it again. [20:18] tacomaster: Yes, or use the noscript plugin [20:18] hi guys, just upgraded to 10.10 but I don't seem to have the new Ubuntu font - how do I get it? [20:18] undecim: where do i get the plugin?

When I connect my Notebook to my HDTV I can't see all the desktop...When I was in 10.04 I varyed overscan compensation in nvidia x server setting but now this option is disabled for the HDTV display...is there any solution? [20:19] tacomaster: You can also look into setting up AppArmor profiles for programs to keep them from accessing important files [20:19] any one knows how to make ubuntu 10.10 works faster on internet? [20:19] krzyhoo: do you speak/read german? i'mnot sure if this helps, but maybe it's worth a look http://kaoso.org/2010/09/09/windows-7-netzwerkdrucker-hp-laserjet-5p-cups-ipp-hinzufugen/ [20:19] Severian: but i don't get the option to choose a prior kernel, it simply goes there directly [20:19] In Appaerance Properties when I try to enable Extra Effects it just waits. I can't enable Compiz. When I was using 9.10 it was OK but with 10.10 it doesn't work. I want that wobbly thingies back! :'( [20:19] LauraCecelia: is it an older laptop? [20:19] tacomaster: noscript.net [20:19] By the way glxgears is working OK. [20:19] llutz: sure i do! i live in germany :) [20:19] I disabled IPv6 and used google DNS which is fast on other OS [20:20] anyone listens here> [20:20] tacomaster: It's especially useful if you need javascript on certain sites, like gmail [20:20] :( [20:20] krzyhoo: don't get me wrong, but i know lots of people living here not speaking 2 german words... [20:20] I have significant slow-downs reading/writing to external USB drives (i.e. from 18MB/s to 1MB/s) - does anyone know of resolutions to this ? [20:20] llutz: i know them as well. I am the kind of person that values integration [20:20] ubuntu 10.10 is super slow on internet [20:20] i am getting xfer speeds of about 22k a sec from ubuntu server 10 via samba. any suggestons please? [20:21] tacomaster: You could also put a folder in your home directory owned by root and with permissions 700 for storing sensitive files that way, you need to have root privileges to access it [20:21] hey, gnome crashed as I was upgrading to 10.10, im guessing its the process "/usr/bin/python /tmp/tmpt_NE5C/maverick" which is still running at 95% of 1 processors CPU - it has been running for 3h20min. is it still working, or has it died, and how can I tell?

Damm bleach-bot(or same kind of tool) I used it when ubuntu suddenly 10 mb space was left in my machine :) [20:22] Alchimista, Press the Shift key at the right time during boot. You may have to try it a few times. In my case, I booted with Knoppix, and edited /boot/grub/grub.cfg to make that menu unhidden. [20:22] BlueDominion some idea of what could it be or fix??? [20:22] Hi i recently installed ubuntu 10.4 on a older computer and can't seem to get the wireless wo work when i run lshw it says its disabled any [20:22] undecim: or just download from site? [20:22] tacomaster: "aptitude search noscript" doesn't output anything for me, so I guess not [20:22] llutz: besides in my line of business, i need to be able to communicate with my customers :) [20:22] tacomaster: Firefox will automatically notify you if there is a plugin update though [20:22] andyzammy: a hostname, not a "url" [20:22] and no, i"m not a plumber :) [20:22] tacomaster: Just download from the site [20:22] who is the admin here?

[20:59] dib_uk, check the "hosts" line [20:59] hi [20:59] no I don't think so [20:59] what is a good linux firewall that is still being updated and worked on [20:59] I didnt change any font [20:59] i noticed that this problem went away when I changed the hinting on the ubuntu font [20:59] hey guys im looking for a solution to being able to boot ISO's off my USB drive...the issue is that Boot Multiple ISO does not support the distro that I want on my flash drive and so what other solutions can I use to put basically any linux distro on the drive and be able to boot it? [20:59] bullgard4, http://imagebin.org/118059 [20:59] I changed it from "Full Hinting" to "Slight Hinting" [20:59] hi all. I just install the new and cool Ubuntu 10.10 and chrome but seem to be i cant watch youtube because of flash. Can you please help? I am using 64 bits version. [20:59] and everything seems to be ok now. [20:59] weird. [21:00] joeyeye "files dns" [21:00] dagny_taggart: yes it does [21:00] but otherwise, I'm out of ideas at this point. [21:00] changed the hinting on the ubuntu font? what do you mean by that? [21:00] i don't think it's a kernel problem [21:00] ok... [21:00] it's got to be a xorg or a gnome desktop problem. [21:00] dib_uk, that's it ? just one line ? [21:00] duongthaia: Currently there is no working 64Bit version of flash [21:00] more likely is it is the video driver doing something weird [21:00] nvidia or ati or intel? [21:00] dib_uk, my bad. I misunderstood [21:00] joeyeye: thats the hosts line. few other thigns aswell [21:01] intel [21:01] andyzammy: have your tried ssh with the -v option to see what is happening when you try to connect? [21:01] dib_uk, change that line to be: "hosts: files wins mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4" [21:01] don't think it's the driver directly since that would be the kernel [21:01] joeyeye: all on 1 line? [21:01] @Someday why is that? so no one in 64 bit can use flash?? [21:02] dib_uk, yes. Then I'm not sure if a reboot, or restart of samba is needed [21:02] joeyeye: k, 1 min [21:02] roxdragon: http://imagebin.org/118059 is unreliable. Your picture disappears after one second.

I am getting this error trying to compile alsa driver on maverick http://pastebin.com/2uU253tA [21:12] beta992: that option worked for me on my T410s w/ hybrid .. not the optimus kind, but still the two graphics card one .. [21:12] hello there. I just installed Ubuntu on my Lenovo Thinkpad T410. It runs at a very high temperature compared to Windows and keeps shutting down automatically. I get the follow error in /var/log/syslog: "Oct 11 12:22:05 sridatta-ThinkPad-T410 kernel: [ 1331.612799] Critical temperature reached (128 C), shutting down." Any advice please? [21:12] !fstab > syr0n [21:12] LucidGuy: When I worked ISP support we'd turn it off if anyone called in and asked, but it needs to be unblocked on the ISP side [21:12] syr0n, please see my private message [21:12] @rxs. yes tried that, I only can disable the Nvidia GPU [21:12] Chaos2358: It will disable your 3rd party repositories, but they can be re-enabled after. [21:12] see if this gets me anywhere first [21:12] glebihan, ty [21:12] syr0n: yw [21:12] Jordan_U but everything else will be safe? [21:13] andyzammy: can you ping 213.120.181.17? It seems to be where your problem is [21:13] hi, my first time on the chat. [21:13] beta992: is there a way you can say that the only GPU is NVIDIA in the BIOS? I could do that in my TP T410s [21:13] When I boot in Windows I need to change it back again.. I use for a Laptop with Nvidia GPU, maybe not a smart choise with Optimus? [21:13] and now i forget how to mount a drive..arg [21:13] Hi, I tried to install ubuntu 10.10 on a MSI Wind u115 with an USB Stick, I created the stick with the universal USB creator (which is inside the image) but if I boot from the USB Stick it just says "SYSLINUX" then the copyright and the author but it won't continue (I waited for 30 min) [21:13] anyone know how to get "hibernate" back in xubuntu 10.10 ? i tried the xubuntu channel but it's dead right now :( [21:13] ejwaxx, just wondering if I can relay to a third party mail server or something using an aternate port. [21:13] dagny_taggart: yes i can, 0% loss [21:14] @rxs: noop, only for disable nvidia gpu :( [21:14] bullgard4, I first started it was ubuntu. I rebooted and now gives me the shell [21:14] Chaos2358: It will inform you of any packages that would need to be removed before the upgrade, and your files are perfectly safe. [21:14] SomeDay: its a known bug [21:14] what was the last distri with 2.4 kernel? [21:14] SomeDay: go get the daily-build version of unetbootin and make the USB stick with that tool [21:14] SomeDay, try alt+sysrq+k? [21:14] Anyone knows if nvidia g310m is supported by latest nvidia driver provided by ubuntu? [21:14] raven: Ubuntu never used 2.4, why? [21:15] anyone know if Ubuntu has known issues when you try to run it on on a system with an i7 cpu? I'm not even getting the install screen, but a complaint that it can't mount a drive [21:15] tesseracter: no it's a known bug thats been open on 10.10 for 6 godd*mn months [21:15] Hey everyone, I'm trying to build the Brutus Evolution plugin to connect to Exchange 5.5. I'm missing some dependencies: Doesn't anyone know where/how I can get rpmdev-setuptree rpmdev-wipetree ? [21:15] tesseracter: I have no idea why it wasnt fixed before release [21:15] @, do you have hybrid switching? [21:15] Jordan_U ok thank you very much i just wanted to find out from someone who knew before i tried [21:15] Crypto:Currently only have windows to work with. [21:15] SomeDay: there's a unetbootin binary for windows [21:15] undecim: ok i did everything on that site except pro police and the programs that needed pro police [21:15] Chaos2358: You're welcome. [21:15] Crypto, ah..i was thinking of the hang on 10.04 [21:15] \connect irc.tvu.org.ru [21:15] tesseracter: this is the same problem, apparnetly [21:15] Tesseracter: I know Alt and k but which key is sysrq? [21:16] beta992: sorry to hear that .. may be there is a way to do it in windows? I know there is a small difference between the Optimus and the hybrids that were available a few months ago ... and I think it was at the level of abstraction .. may be the "Optimus differs from Hybrid SLI in that it doesn’t need drivers to cooperate, but rather relies on the presence of an Intel chipset--be it the Core 2 Duo, Core i7 or Atom" means that we cant switc [21:16] BIOS? [21:16] What command would I use to search for "word" in ~/file? [21:16] SomeDay, its the print screen button [21:16] I dunno, I'm planning to buy a new laptop with i5 processor and g310 graphic card [21:16] tesseracter: the version of syslinux included on the USB tools is too old [21:16] IdleOne: grep word ~/file [21:16] roxdragon: Analyze your dmesg now. [21:16] Crypto, so the alt+sysreq+k might work? [21:16] its kind of seriously embarassing for the QA team [21:16] tesseracter cryptro: currently trying [21:16] erUSUL: thanks. to simple for me to figure out heh [21:16] tesseracter: I havent seen any indications on the bug tracker that it would [21:16] Crypto: SomeDay: Ubuntu's "Startup DIsk Creator" works fine. [21:17] Hey everyone, I'm trying to build the Brutus Evolution plugin to connect to Exchange 5.5. I'm missing some dependencies: Doesn't anyone know where/how I can get rpmdev-setuptree rpmdev-wipetree ? [21:17] IdleOne: ;P [21:17] Jordan_U: from in windows? [21:17] @rxs, thanks for your answer [21:17] andyzammy: it seems that server is your issue. the only thing i can think of is to try your ssh command from a different network to see if that works. it sounds like you have everything set up correctly so I'm not so sure you are your problem, if you know what i mean [21:17] I just installed Ubuntu on my Lenovo Thinkpad T410. It runs at a very high temperature compared to Windows and keeps shutting down automatically. I get the follow error in /var/log/syslog: "Oct 11 12:22:05 sridatta-ThinkPad-T410 kernel: [ 1331.612799] Critical temperature reached (128 C), shutting down." Any advice please? [21:17] Hope someday Asus will build it in in de BIOS, or NV releases sources for Optimus [21:17] gnome crashed as I was upgrading to 10.10, im guessing its the process "/usr/bin/python /tmp/tmpt_NE5C/maverick" which is still running at 95% of 1 processors CPU - it has been running for 4h10min. is it still working, or has it died, and how can I tell? [21:18] tacomaster: Nice [21:18] erUSUL: if I wanted to search for word in all files of ~/dir ? [21:18] Jordan_U, debian? [21:18] Crypto: From windows I thiught the latest unetbootin worked but I'm not sure (I guess not since you're asking). [21:18] Anybody know how to switch a digital toslink output from 96Khz to 48Khz in Unbuntu 10.10? [21:18] beta [21:18] undecim: i think the encrypting messed up some of my files but nothing serious === oracle_ is now known as oracle [21:18] dagny_taggart: yeah i do know what u mean. i'm already able to do that by using my phone's 3g connection to attempt to ssh.... it fails. do you think it could be something to do with the fact that the server is a vm sitting inside another machine?? [21:18] IdleOne: grep has -R i think you will figure how to use it ;P [21:19] i'm trying to install frostwire but the .deb from their site is i586 (i'm on an x86_64 system) [21:19] tacomaster: You said you had a backup of them? [21:19] erUSUL: ok ok I get it :P read the man :) === hassan is now known as Guest77027 [21:19] undecim: lol thats what i put in the shreder [21:19] so sometimes programs leave these little rectangles on my screen [21:19] raven: Ask in #debian about debian, but I'm still curious why you'd want 2.4. [21:19] undecim: it didnt mess anything up to bad just 1 file that i can see [21:19] Jordan_U, because i need to use openmosix [21:20] andyzammy: yes, i would say that is your problem. when you traceroute, are you using the domain name or ip address? [21:20] IdleOne: Read The Fine Manual ;P is « grep -R word dir/ » [21:20] grr, i can help a lot of people, but nobody has been able to help me... [21:20] anyone who uses OPENMOSIX with ubuntu? [21:20] sridatta: can you use top or gnome-system-monitor and see what process is peaking you CPU ? May be that will tell you something ... [21:20] <{Nathan}> What is a (preferably GTK) podcast manager that can sync to my iPod? [21:20] hmm upgrade manager says: This is still a RELEASE-CANDIDATE release. [21:20] sorry to keep asking this question, but does Ubuntu 10.10 encrypt swap when you have selected to encrypt your home directory ... it is just that i've asked this question twice today and was told it does and then another person said it doesn't ... i can't find any info on google other than a forum posting that says it does encrypt swap [21:20] tacomaster: It shouldn't have messed up any files, though I guess that's related to the errors you saw [21:20] how do i install frostwire? `sudo-apt-get install frostwire` doesn't work [21:20] <{Nathan}> adac: update your package listings [21:20] Hello all. I installed 10.10 RC on several computers at different locations. As of yesterday (launch day) my updates are not working. I have the error if anyone care's to take a look. [21:21] <{Nathan}> ihsw: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire [21:21] when I login to my Ubuntu server over ssh it takes long for the password promt. why? [21:21] raven: Why can't you use LinuxPMI or any of the other cluster solutions? [21:21] undecim: its ok the files that im securing are readly accessible by my so i can pull them anytime so not to worried about it [21:21] I loaded ubuntu from vmware, but I am having issues with proxy. Does anyone know why I can't get the repository to download because of proxy, or is there an alternative? [21:21] Jordan_U, because i do not get it to run [21:21] CajunLANMan: what error ? pastebin? [21:21] dagny_taggart: i used the ip.. but i don't think that would matter because the domain name points to that ip (they're teh same thing as far as traceroute is concerned, right?) i know for sure only the server vm is able to accept web http server traffic [21:21] {Nathan}, still the same: http://pastie.org/1213869 [21:22] tesseracter, I do not think you can really view whats going on in a process without strace [21:22] {Nathan}: the instructions direct you to download the .deb from their site, and their .deb doesn't work on my system (wrong architecture error, mine is x86_64 while the .deb is i586) [21:22] There may be something but I havent heard of it [21:22] raven: Have you tried asking in #LinuxPMI? [21:22] andyzammy: try tracerouting the domain name, seeing as that is what you are trying to connect using [21:22] rxs, W: A error occurred during the signature verification.

There is a saying that "physical access is root access". That means that if someone gets their hand on the computer physically, they will be able to get to anything that isn't encrypted.

Just know that if someone else has a chance to mess with your computer without your supervision, treat it like you would a compromised system. [21:27] does anyone else experience a loud amount of static when playing back sound through jackd in maverick? :< [21:27] I'm trying to view a PDF document that contains some non-embedded fonts (ArialMT), and a wrong font gets selected. I have Arial installed on my machine (through mscorettf), but it doesn't get selected. As a result, I get gibberish in both evince and okular. [21:27] can anyone help me with nvidia problem after maverick update? Please! [21:27] !anyone | memo_ [21:27] undecim: ok ty for the advice [21:27] memo_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."

It can lock your computer if you walk away from it with your cell phone in your pocket. [21:28] glebihan, that command isn't working. stopping at --recv--keys [21:29] Felix__, neither did mine, but using the minimal iso did the trick (Raid works fine here now) [21:29] it says unable to locate flashplugin_nonfree [21:29] two different commands i think? sorry [21:29] I can start X only in failsafe mode; when I try to start normal X, it says "failed to load module "nvidia"". Anyone know what I could do? [21:29] i tried adobe-flash too [21:29] has anyone got any ideas for installing frostwire on an x84_64-based system? [21:29] CajunLANMan: what do you mean by "stopping at --recv-keys" ? what error do you get exactly ? [21:30] memo_, tried the "sudo nvidia-xconfig" ?

[21:31] Debby: check out the status of the game at winehq.org [21:31] glebihan: I am not familiar with multiverse. What is it? [21:31] memo_: what nvidia drivers are you using? I am having a similar problem [21:31] hi, ubuntu 10.10 is running slow and jerky. i did a fresh install. music and video is choppy [21:31] please help [21:31] Debby: it should give you some pointers on how well it will run, if possible [21:31] if i copy/paste that command you gave me, I get gpg: Invalid option "--recv--keys" [21:31] Felix__, let me get the direct url for you and put it in a IM to you [21:31] ganeshran: go to System->Administration->Software sources and check if multiverse is checked [21:31] anyone know anything about grub?

[21:38] stodertoad, I tried that, command was not found according to terminal [21:38] Let me try again [21:38] and make sure you chmod a+x NAME_OF_SETUPFILE [21:38] i need a torrent program to connect to rtorrent via a LAN [21:38] Or just adding an OSS module? :P [21:39] glebihan: i am in india mirror. i will try some other ones [21:39] !kernel > Lancelot [21:39] Lancelot, please see my private message [21:39] !spam Dr_Willis [21:39] stealth_: which command are you in the directory [21:39] Lancelot: sorry wrong person [21:39] !kernal > mawst [21:39] !kernel > mawst [21:39] mawst, please see my private message [21:39] yeah...that doesn't help with my audio problem :p [21:39] stodertoad, I am in the documents where the file is saved [21:40] Chaos2358: it was a bot and not the real user [21:40] stodertoad, I just tried what you said and then got this message [21:40] bash: ./truecrypt-7.0-setup-x86: Permission denied [21:40] Idleone ok [21:40] how do i know if i have an nvidia [21:40] stealth_: make sure to chmod a+x truecrypt-7.0-setup-x86 [21:40] how do install the mbr on an external usb disk [21:40] Ahh brad_, Thank you so much [21:40] i have it mounted an in a chroot [21:40] can anyone confirm enabled ssh rsa login won't disable password authentication? i do still have 'PasswordAuthentication yes', cannot test on localhost because it auto rsa connects... [21:40] stealth: type-> sudo ./truecrypt-7.0-setup-x86 [21:40] Hey, I want to install 10.10 from usb but there doesn't seem to be any setting to enable booting from usb in my bios. [21:41] Good. Another outdated guide. [21:41] ok, i still dont see how to fix my jerky audio [21:41] (Ubuntu 10.04) I'm trying to view a PDF document that contains some non-embedded fonts (ArialMT), and a wrong font gets selected. I have Arial installed on my machine (through mscorettf), but it doesn't get selected. As a result, I get gibberish in both evince and okular. [21:41] mmmm love the 10.10 [21:41] ryan_, did you check under boot sequence in the bios?? if yes and no usb available then it is not going to work [21:41] stodertoad, brad_ reminded my to Chmod it, not done this much before and forgot. Thanks for both your help [21:41] I did, thanks [21:41] ryano: Older motherboards are typically unable to boot from USB. However, some BIOS's "hide" it. Sometimes it lists it under external/hard drives [21:42] ^^ [21:42] no problem good someone else know chmod cause I don't [21:42] Freshly burned Maverick 64 stuck during boot after "Boot from CD:" "ISOLINUX ..."; hardware is Intel core 2 duo on a shuttle-sized stationary. Ideas or pointers? [21:42] There may also be an option to enable/disable booting from USB/external drives. [21:42] please, can anyone tell me why maverick tells me there are no nvidia drivers available although i installed them? [21:42] ok I'll check again [21:42] hi! i'm just updated to 10.10, yesterday the networking worked fine, but no the network-applet managger says "no network devices available", anyone experiencing this? [21:43] akoskm: I noticed my interface had no ip from dhcp, so yeah, I think there are some quirky things with 10.10 [21:43] hey guys, i upgraded to 10.10 from 10.04 and now my LIRC seems to have stopped working. its installed, running, but wont receive any IR commands (tested with irw). any ideas? [21:43] I just set up a samba server on my laptop to check it out....I can't seem to get logged in. It will not accept my password. any suggestions? [21:44] Wow, remmina is an epicly awesome rdp client. [21:44] I can't seem to figure out how to switch my sound card hooked up with digital toslink from 96Khz to 48Khz in Ubuntu 10.10. Any ideas? [21:44] Crypto: Thanks again, installation is 90% complete and it looks like it recognised even which netbook it is, never thought installing an OS could be that good feeling it even recognized the WiFi. [21:44] Friar, did you try your mothers maiden name? [21:44] laeg, if you want to only use keys, you need to disable pass auth [21:44] so, i'm dumb. a guy set up a vm for me with a user of user and passwd of user. I did passwd to change the user and edited /etc/passwrd to change the username. now i can't log in via ssh, any idea? [21:44] ubuntu comes installed with an ssh server right? or do i have to isntall open ssh [21:44] install openssh-server [21:44] gilaniali: the later [21:44] elb0w, no [21:44] gilaniali, you need to install openssh-server [21:44] there was onthing on the vm so i'm hoping he can just replace it quickly, but i'd still like to fix it myself:-\ [21:44] k, thanks [21:45] brad_: i can't manage any of my interfaces now, and if i right click to the applet the Enable Networking is checked but also greyed out :/ === v3nd3tta is now known as v3nd3tta`` [21:45] :( [21:45] Hi. My netbook screen broke but I can get a second screen on my TV but it has no panel/menu. How can I move the panel/menu to the second screen using the terminal? [21:45] gp5st, you changed the username in /etc/passwd? [21:45] can a hard drive result in audio and video being jumpy? [21:45] elb0w: yes [21:45] gp5st, why? [21:45] elbow, because i wanted a different username? [21:45] glebihan: thanks. I changed the mirror and reloaded the packges. Hope it works now [21:45] gp5st, thats not the correct way to do it [21:45] i know i should have just created a new user…..i'm half drunk [21:46] :-\ [21:46] or usermod [21:46] yeah, iknew i should have used usermod:( [21:46] i should have jsut created a new user with the proper credentials [21:46] hmmmmmm [21:46] confirmed it [21:46] then deleted the generic user [21:46] blue-frog: is openssh-client installed or does that have to be installed too [21:46] ganeshran: ok let me know [21:46] how to fix this no valid EDID? [21:47] [drm:radeon_dvi_detect] *ERROR* HDMI Type A-1: probed a monitor but no|invalid EDID [21:47] gp5st, there are files such as the shadow file that have information pertaining to specific users [21:47] filling up dmesg log [21:47] gilaniali, client is in already [21:47] gp5st, in the future if you want to change a login name you would do usermod -l new_name old_name [21:47] yeah [21:48] Hey [21:48] it's getting nasty as it fills up also the terminal [21:48] elb0w: is there anyway i can log in though? i've tried all 4 combos of username and passwd [21:48] gp5st, Unless you can get back into the box and revert your changes I think you need to reinstall. === Nwab is now known as Benwa [21:48] gp5st, You are trying to go in as a user that the system does not recognize. And you have removed the user that it does by modifying that file [21:49] There's a programme in top called bkl-orbiter. It's using an entire CPU core and 45% of 5GB of RAM by itself, and having a major dent on performance, yet it doesn't seem to be doing anything apart from hogging a mounted NTFS disk and not letting me unmount it. What is this? Can I kill it without damaging something? [21:49] archlich: but 'PasswordAuthentication yes' is in my config, doesn't this mean i can use keys and password login? or does configuring the key automatically disable username and password login? [21:49] elb0w: that's what i was afraid of. i thoguht /etc/passwd was the final authority on users [21:49] gp5st, no there are many entires [21:50] lol [21:50] Hello all. Is there anyone around that is familliar with get_iplayer? [21:50] gp5st, reinstall [21:50] is the amd64 ubuntu version supposed to work on intel 64bit systems as well? [21:50] yes [21:50] Ethelim, yes, intel 64bit processors use the AMD64 architecture. [21:50] gp5st, It is probably not worth the recovery methods. I also do not know if they even apply to vm's [21:50] Ethelim: yes [21:50] thanks [21:50] Ethelim: the amd64 is just b/c AMD did it first. [21:51] elb0w: :-\ that requires someone else to do it. thanks though [21:51] *nod* [21:51] Why are there even releases instead of continuous updates? [21:51] farmer|alchemist: bkl-orbiter seems to only be a indexing tool so there should be no problem killing it :http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/maverick/man1/bkl-orbiter.1.html [21:51] laeg, correct, having a key does not disable username/pass [21:51] gp5st, is it vmware or vbox? [21:51] JoeCoolNetbook: If you want a rolling distro there are many options for that, but it's much harder to support / maintain. [21:52] idk, it's a box someone else sets up, it's for a client and this is another sub contractor, essentially [21:52] Hi [21:52] glebihan: Is there a way to stop it indexing the drive permanently? And stop starting when the drive is mounted? Would this be a problem? [21:52] if it were mine i'd have a blank vm i could just copy over it, elb0w. i just wasn't thinking and made those changes. it was so dumb. so dumb:-( [21:52] whoa [21:52] gp5st, you can try something like this http://www.petri.co.il/vmware-esx-server-root-password-reset-recovery-lost.htm [21:53] ironic :D [21:53] Anybody know how to change a Soundblaster Xfi with digital Toslink from 96Khz to 48Khz? [21:53] elb0w: i can't access it during boot [21:53] Sorry for repeating myself but I'm starting to feel ignored :P [21:53] is it normal that there are several errors during the installation, such as a number of ubuntu edd: error 8000 reading sector xyz [21:53] anyway, thank you for your help. i shot off an email to the admin [21:53] Seymourbewty, let me know if you find out [21:53] Seymourbewty: I don't think anyone does [21:53] Seymourbewty: maybe in the alsa channel you get more help ? [21:54] (nevermind that ubuntu bit, copy & paste from my google search) [21:54] Ethelim, wouldn't have thought so. Run a disc check before installing. [21:54] oh.. didn't know there was a seperate channel! thanks! [21:54] farmer|alchemist: one way would be to uninstall "bickley-daemons", I don't know if there's another one, I don't have this installed on my computer [21:54] I am using buffer underrun protection while burning on a plextor drive. Is it really worth burning at lowest speed? (would be 4x) [21:54] Is there anyone around that is familliar with get_iplayer? [21:55] glebihan: it wasnt the mirror issue. The new flash player url seems to have changed. The correct command to install is sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer [21:55] archlich: crap, i'm having trouble accessing my ssh server at home from work since last week. tried 22, 80, 8080, 443, 55555, and 5555 - any recommendations? [21:55] also for older versions older flash player must be removed by sudo apt-get remove flashplugin_nonfree [21:56] archlich: been trying without a key although one is set. [21:56] Ethelim, lower speeds are always more reliable. But either way put the cd in and boot, when the screen shows a little logo that llooks like the ubuntu cd booting hit any key. On the menu that follows run trhe disc checking utility [21:56] FloodBot, stop flooding! [21:56] I don't even get to that I think, it gets stuck on the Ubuntu text logo (with dots underneath) screen [21:56] Would uninstalling bkl-orbiter have an adverse effect? [21:57] farmer|alchemist: It may slow down your searches [21:57] Or the bickley-deamons as a whole [21:57] farmer|alchemist: of your hard drive [21:57] ganeshran: weird, I do have "adobe-flashplugin" and "flashplugin-nonfree" in my repos... anyway the important thing is you got it working :) [21:57] Ethelim, as soon as it shows anything that's not bios anymore. [21:57] cuddlefish_XO, It's using 99% CPU, so I can take this as a forfeit :p [21:57] it shold be a little logo of a keyboard and mous iirc [21:57] cuddlefish_XO, No other adverse effects? Won't screw up my filesystem or something? [21:58] is this support for 10.4 or 10.10? [21:58] farmer|alchemist: It should not, unless something depends on it [21:58] farmer|alchemist: something important [21:58] almoxarife: both [21:58] thnks [21:58] Comrade, with sudo badblocks? Or something else? [21:58] I have no network interfaces in network manager applet on ym laptop, can anybody help meg to fix my internet connection? [21:58] cuddlefish_XO, It shows no problems, and I can reinstall if needed. Thanks for your help! :D [21:59] farmer|alchemist: no as I told you, these are only indexing tools, so no risk with uninstalling them [21:59] uh, Ethelim, no, no. There should be an option on the graphical menu to check the disc for errors. [21:59] Perhaps you really aren't getting that far! [21:59] Hello there Linux advocates. [21:59] after maverick update I can't start X except in failsafe mode; it says "failed to load module "nvidia". no drivers available". Can anyone help? [22:00] not even getting to any graphical menus I'm afraid, Comrade [22:00] TFGBD: this is a support channel - no advocating here [22:00] In which case all I can suggest is that you check the disc some other way. For example if you have a windows box use imgburn to check the disc (verify) against the original image file [22:00] owh.. more ppl with graphical problems.. hehe.. [22:00] Hey, guys is there a way to either freeze the screen during boot up or take a log of everything during bootup? [22:00] Fine, but I've a quick question.

[22:17] ikonia: i think he means the Unetbootin bug not supporting 10.10 [22:17] is there a terminal command to update from 10.04 to 10.10? I cant find it in he menu [22:17] How do I change the computername in ubuntu 10.10? [22:17] <[--X--]> I checked the md5sum and there seems to be nothing wrong with it [22:17] since I updated to 10.10 2finger tap pasting does not work anymore [22:17] as i said, i cannot help with 100 posts a sec.. [22:17] ikonia: I dont have the bug number handy, but the official method of making a live-key USB drive to play with / install 10.10 is broken due to version differences in syslinux [22:17] jacobz : update-manager -d (i think) [22:17] KillaHaxz: and as I said, that's not how this channel works, please don't do it [22:17] ganeshran: no, -d is for development releases [22:17] jac0bz1: System>Admin ...>Software Sources. third tab update. At the botton change from LTS only to normal. then run the update manager [22:17] Crypto: ehsy'd yhr gic [22:17] Crypto: you need to remove the UI reference in the conf file [22:17] Boeboe: make change to file /etc/host [22:17] ikonia: right now the only way to get a working 10.10 usb drive from windows is to use the latest unetbootin binaries to make it [22:18] Crypto: what's the fix sorry [22:18] tgywa: Please note that any help you receive in PM can not be peer reviewed by the rest of the channel. [22:18] [--X--] Usually you get better results burning at lowest speeds, you may need to burn a new cd [22:18] I know the founder of ubuntu and have been helping ppl with it for years, he won't mind.. [22:18] ganeshran: negative, there's other issues to, just removing the ui from the cfg file doesnt get you booted, you still get a error about gfxboot [22:18] ikonia: in the syslinux.conf file in the last line there is a word ui, we need to remove it [22:18] since upgrade to maverick, my machine boots to tty1 login. after some amount of time, gdm finally starts. I am unable to find any errors in logs... anyone else experience this issue? [22:18] Crypto: That worked for me. I am on 10.10 now [22:18] ganeshran: no, that's insufficient for many people. [22:18] KillaHaxz: Please join #ubuntu-ops [22:18] <[--X--]> alzie, I tried buring 2 disc, both of them failed to let me boot which is kinda weird. I'll try your advice and burn it at a lower speed [22:19] anyone around? [15:16] im trying to do the automated update from 10.04 to 10.10 and its hanging on doing the install at 9 minutes remaining configuring openSSL. Anyone availble to help? [22:19] Crypto: oh.. i didnt know if there is any other bug [22:19] ganeshran: google for 10.10 syslinux gfxboot [22:19] Crypto, it wont execute [22:19] [--X--] I've made my share of coasters-- good luck [22:19] Crypto: just having a little look [22:19] there was a thread on a newyork ubuntu LUG about it that was getting a buncvh of traffic [22:19] ikonia: let me find you some links [22:19] Crypto, it wont execute. i tried setting the permission as exectuable [22:19] Crypto: thanks [22:20] ok, made change to /etc/hosts. Before I restart: That is the only place where I need to change it, or best to check other places to change hostname too? [22:20] is there a way to turn off that box that ask me to enter a session password for wifi? [22:20] Hello [22:20] by the way is it better to use the properietary ATI drivers or the built in Ubuntu ones? [22:20] anyone have the link handy on how to report a bug? [22:20] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/608382 Here's the official bug link but the problem is that the 'fixes' dont address the majority of the people using windows tools to make the USB drive [22:20] erUSUL: want to jump into -ops talk about your factoid ? [22:20] jac0bz1: How do you mean, like it should remember the network credentials? [22:20] Anyway using a netbook, ubuntu unity, know a way to switch from unity to regular ubuntu desktop? [22:20] i think [22:20] Crypto, it wont execute. i tried setting the permission as exectuable [22:21] ikonia: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9952843 here's a thread showing it still unresolved [22:21] my ubuntu is in norwegian.. so i dont know what it's caøøed [22:21] *called [22:21] Crypto: lets look at the bug report [22:21] donri: Yeah, it looks like it comes wide open, incoming and outgoing. I do want to block everything (it's a server, no need for it to talk outside) [22:21] Boeboe: did you change the name in /etc/hostname ??? [22:21] Crypto: just having a read [22:22] ikonia: in the bug report the fixes are to update ubuntu's own USB key prep tool, but the problem is that doesnt help the huge number of windows users using windows to make the key [22:22] just in /etc/hosts [22:22] Ill check /etc/hostname [22:22] ikonia: on ubuntus web page they instruct people to use the pendrive linux usb tool, which is currently broken [22:22] Crypto: just having a read [22:22] may i ask a question? telnet localhost 2101 works but telnet from another pc to server ip port dosnt work, tcpdump shows packets incoming [22:22] ikonia: I understand, I'm just feeding you background info while you do so [22:22] Boeboe: change the name in etc/hostname too [22:22] Crypto: understood [22:22] ok changed it there as well, should do the trick. [22:23] any indians on here? Any idea how to type the new Indian rupee symbol in 10.10 which is included [22:23] mysticdarkhack: installing ubuntu-desktop should work [22:23] NexxxxusTal: do you have a really good reason to be using telnet? the 80's called and want its telnet server back :) [22:23] Boeboe: when I restarted I had the new name :) [22:23] Anyone want to walk me through adding OSS to my kernel and building it? I think I have the fies I need but the guide breaks down as it's outdated apparently. [22:23] !in | ganeshran [22:23] ganeshran: #ubuntu-in is the channel for Ubuntu in India [22:23] yeah, not restarting yet, need to take care of some other stuff first :) [22:24] anyone know if regressions are considered as bugs? silly question.. i know.. [22:24] thanks in advance though [22:24] erUSUL: thans [22:24] hello. I am just wondering why the 10.10 is a dvd instead of a cd (for the live ISO)...is there that much new stuff? [22:24] Sterist: yep; the worst type of bugs... [22:24] keyboarddrummer: no its a CD, but there is a DVD version as well, with some extra languages [22:24] 10.10 is a cd image afaik [22:24] erUSUL: im using telnet to test access to my Kannel bearerbox port [22:24] keyboarddrummer: It's a 900MB image [22:24] okay. for some reason i only saw the dvd download [22:25] thanks [22:25] keyboarddrummer: ergo, just barely over the limit for CD. [22:25] Anyone that have tried 10.10 on a pc with Intel GMA500? 10.04 did't allow video playback, and screen froze when closing/opening the lid [22:25] archlich: i'm at home which is server side at the moment, nmap localhostname -p22 = open ssh - do you mean for me to check client side? [22:25] jac0bz1: oh dude yes bad [22:25] since upgrade to maverick, my machine boots to tty1 login. after some amount of time, a minute or so, gdm finally starts. I am unable to find any errors in X log... anyone else experience this issue? [22:25] less ubuntu related. On a previous ubuntu install I had an awesome bluescreen screensaver. Where can I find it now? [22:25] NexxxxusTal: checked if a firewall is blocking it? [22:25] archlich: would be nice if i could use nmap on the windows box client side to just show me a list of all open ports [22:25] Crypto: still reading, lots of info [22:25] Hi [22:26] hello all, i'm looking for somebody who are know the evdev configuration? with a touchscreen? [22:26] erUSUL: im using ufw and i have opened this port to whole word [22:26] Crypto: was than an "I don't work"`? [22:26] laeg: you mean the screensaver that was really red, and the Windows error basically? [22:26] jac0bz1: it's totally broken, yeah. [22:26] jac0bz1: it wont suspend properly either [22:26] seekwill: Did you try "sudo ufw default deny"? [22:26] Can anyone tell me if Ubuntu 10.10 is shipping with the newly released broadcom wireless driversd out of the box ? instead as a non-free package [22:26] jac0bz1: standby for the link to get it going [22:26] wrong person? no it was a collection of death screens of different OS'es :p [22:26] sebsebseb: was that message meant for me? [22:26] donri: Yeah, I found that hehe. But it still allows outgoing :/ [22:26] erUSUL: telnet ip port works from same server, telnet ip port dosnt work from another server [22:26] NexxxxusTal: telnet daemon conf ? it is binding to LAN ip ? [22:26] seekwill: Also you'll need "sudo ufw enable" [22:27] jac0bz1: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsPoulsbo/ [22:27] I am trying to connect to a my server via ssh.. I get this error " ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host ". The Deny hosts file is empty... [22:27] jac0bz1: I followed that process last night and the end result still sucks hard. [22:27] looks at names more carefuly next time not laeg above, but Boeboe [22:27] erUSUL: its not telnet daemon, its Kannel bearerbox daemon [22:27] jac0bz1: GMA500 has no working linux support at this time, just forget about it [22:27] erUSUL: and yes from same server works [22:27] hmm.. that sucks [22:27] eh [22:27] Hi [22:27] donri: Do you know how to block outgoing ports? I don't want it to freely talk to anyone without me knowing hehe [22:27] jac0bz1: yeah I agree. means I cant use my asus netbook [22:28] seekwill: According to the manpage the default command takes an incoming|outgoing parameter so try: "sudo ufw default deny outgoing" [22:28] But that link said that ubuntu 9.10 supports it? [22:28] NexxxxusTal: Kannel bearerbox telnet daemon surely has a way of configuring it? [22:28] Boeboe: you mean the screensaver that was really red, and the Windows erorr basically? The Blue Screen Of Death screensaver, which was actsaully red error messges [22:28] in xubuntu 10.10 is there a way to increase the area of a window border to make it easier to capture with mouse cursor say for resizing? [22:28] I tried to install Ubuntu Studio 10.04 but after updating the system would ot boot and got stuck at initramfs [22:28] donri: Ah cool. I'll try that. Thanks! [22:28] Crypto: let me have a chat with a few others about this, and I'll come back to you ASAP about putting a bot factoid together, is that ok [22:28] erUSUL: yes, it has port where to listen [22:28] seekwill: I recommend you also read "man ufw" and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW [22:28] Crypto: I'm only stalling as there is a little more under the hood to this [22:28] jac0bz1: intel released a binary-only driver for the GMA that was made for the kernel version in 9.10 [22:28] Ho [22:28] NexxxxusTal: nothing more? [22:28] * mawst wonders where to make menuconfig [22:28] ikonia: no, thats fine, I'm just trying to save some people some hassle since I had to do a bunch of detective work to get that far. [22:29] erUSUL: no, no interface configuration [22:29] laeg, well, if you were linux side you can do a ssh -vvvv to see incredibly verbose info on why it's failing that would be my next step after confirming the port is open [22:29] sebsebseb. it's a collection of emulated errorscreens from different OS'es, I know it's in one of the screensaver packages [22:29] mawst: why are you making your own kernel [22:29] how do I upgrade to 10.10 from the Update Manager? I don't see the check box anymore [22:29] ikonia, I want OSS back. [22:29] ikonia: I need to head for home pretty soon, so I'll be offline for a few hours anyway [22:29] mawst: in kernel source dir [22:29] Crypto: totally understand, just let me check into this a bit more [22:29] Nay, I require OSS. [22:29] Can anyone tell me if Ubuntu 10.10 is shipping with the newly released broadcom wireless driversd out of the box ? instead as a non-free package [22:29] ikonia: absolutely. [22:29] Crypto: it will take a few hours for me to research this properly and it's effects [22:29] Boeboe: no don't think there is what your afer in the Ubuntu repos, but yes there are more there [22:29] gantrixx: if software sources, check that "new distribution releases" in set to "normal releases" [22:30] heh [22:30] I see it now [22:30] I am trying to install ubuntu 10.10 from a pendrive. I get a purlpe screen with a keyboard and a man at the bottom then the console flashes by and it all turns black. Don't know what to do... [22:30] * shadowcat doesn't dare to upgrade [22:30] you have to make sure "normal releases" are checked [22:30] ikonia: no problem. Here's what I anticipate: The guy who authors the website-recommended pendrive USB creator tool will eventualyl update his tool with the newer syslinux packages and the problem will go away [22:30] shadowcat: Why? [22:30] ignatius@ignatius-desktop:/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.35/debian$ make menuconfig | make: *** No rule to make target `menuconfig'. Stop. [22:30] why is this thing such a pain in the behind to install :S [22:30] ikonia: so if he can integrate the new packages in the next 24 hours it should all just dissapear as a problem [22:30] sebsebseb: there's some software that I need for my courses, and I don't know if all of it works in 10.10 [22:31] bah [22:31] how to join ubuntu to a domain during install [22:31] Ethelim: depends on how you install Ubuntu, and yes doing partitioning for an OS can be a bit tricky when not done partitioing before [22:31] GHOSTMEDIAPRO: you can't [22:31] I need to test everything in vmware or something before I upgrade the box [22:31] shadowcat: Which software? [22:31] I can't get the iso CDs to behave, burning the fourth now [22:31] I don't even get to the GUI [22:31] sebsebseb: Altera Nios II [22:31] shadowcat: ok test in Virtualbox :) [22:31] if you know what that is [22:31] shadowcat: I don't know of that program [22:32] shadowcat: however if the programs work on 10.04, they probably do in 10.10 as well [22:32] sebsebseb: it's a hardware design and processor simulation package [22:32] ikonia: the ubuntu website, (here: http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/download ) recommends windows users to download and install the "universal USB installer" from pendrivelinux.com, which is broken due to the same bug report I posted earlier. thats the real problem in a nutshell [22:32] couldn't get domain user to authenticate, so i'm doing a fresh reinstall, and work from the beginning [22:32] sebsebseb: I need to be 200% sure before I upgrade [22:32] can any oen tell me what plugin I need to create a symbololic link to to get openjdk reconized by a custom install of firefox? [22:32] shadowcat: ok vm then, like you were saying [22:32] ikonia: its that the vast majority of new cluebies are installing ubuntu on netbooks, and making the USB drive from within windows. [22:32] :) [22:33] Crypto: I can see how it is a reasonable issue [22:33] ikonia: so, as soon as the authors of that windows tool fix their software, it will all blow over. [22:33] how to get Ubuntu 10.04 (ext4) and win7 encrypted with truecrypt to dualboot? TC loader killed grub 2. :( [22:33] (or as soon as canonical recommends another tool like unetbootin ) [22:34] Crypto: point taken [22:34] Nanovarium: TrueCrypt a Windows program yeah? === blue-frog is now known as blueblue [22:34] is there any security fixes in 10.10 that are worty of upgrading for? [22:34] Nanovarium: there is some sort of issue, where certain Windows programs will mess up Grub 2 [22:34] Im tryin gto mount my newly formatted hd, and it says Daemon is being Inhibited, What does this mean [22:34] sebsebseb: windows encrytped from a windows truecrypt-version, yes [22:34] Oh man this is frustrating. [22:34] anyone using a netbook here? Looking to put Ubuntu on a small dedicated device [22:34] !details | mawst [22:34] mawst: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [22:35] i knew before that TC loader will overwrite grub 2, but i'm quite unsure how to fix this in a smooth way [22:35] Ahem. [22:35] I'm afraid not to be able to boot anything in the end [22:35] Ok, oh man compiling the kernel just for OSS is frustrating. [22:35] theres a netbook edition of ubuntu === pure|hate is now known as pure_hate [22:35] is it possible to upgrade from 32 bit to the 64-bit version of Ubuntu ? [22:35] Ethelim: a few are, and Unity is pretty nice the new netbook interface, from what I have seen (not tried on an actsaul netbook, but have on desktop :) and then the webpages I been on before about it ) [22:35] Telling me I'm not in the source directory. [22:35] Mam problem z instalacją ze źródła. Czy jest ktoś tutaj wstanie mi pomóc? [22:35] mawst: what do you need OSS for? been deprecated for decades [22:35] Im tryin gto mount my newly formatted hd, and it says Daemon is being Inhibited, What does this mean [22:35] modulexploited: no. [22:36] haha Ive tried the netbook UI three times now and it doesnt support a single #$^#$^4~& piece of graphics hardware Ive tried it on [22:36] erUSUL, certain things either work better with or require OSS. [22:36] its hilariously frustrating [22:36] hello [22:36] mawst: use the padsp wrapper for them [22:36] I tried. [22:36] It didn't work with everything. [22:36] is there a possible way to back up all the installed applications and put them back on a new installation of ubuntu ? [22:36] seb: wondering which one to get, i.e. something Ubuntu works on - and I don't want to get another macbook just for Ubuntu [22:36] e.g. Wolfenstein ET. [22:36] Is it possible to mount grub2 into a partition which is not MBR and chainload ubuntu bei pressing ESC when truecrypt loader starts? [22:36] I don't see why I can't just have my /dev/dsp back. >:D [22:37] !clone | modulexploited [22:37] modulexploited: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate [22:37] Nanovarium: There's no partiicularly "clean" solution. Among your options are installing grub to a partiion (which is somewhat unreliable) and using separate disks for truecrypt and grub. [22:37] can anyone tell me how do i disable vsync? because glxgears is capped on 60fps and i want to test som xorg conf settings [22:37] modulexploited: That overwhelms my knowings.. [22:37] tacomaster: All security fixes to 10.10 will also be applied to 10.04 or any version of Ubuntu that hasn't reached EOL [22:37] Im tryin gto mount my newly formatted hd, and it says Daemon is being Inhibited, why cant i Mount this drive? [22:37] Crypto: I got it on a deskotp with Lubuntu at the moment, crashes if I do certain things though hmm. not quite sure I got what I am meant to have though, since how I installed Unity, but also netbook packages hmm, and on top of that how the install started with the RC and the updates on Saturday, so yeah i'll clean install with the final later on, just to be sure I got what I am meant to have (plus the font doesn't show in desktop version so [22:37] yeah) [22:37] undecim: ok ty [22:37] tacomaster: If a version of Ubuntu is still supported, that means that security fixes are still being released. [22:37] Jordan_U: I've read Grub1 is not able to handle ext4 *?* [22:38] undecim: ok how long will 10.04 be supported [22:38] I'm pretty dissapointed in the 10.10 release so far given the hardware problems Ive run into [22:38] I never had this problem in Gentoo. I just ran make menuconfig && make && make install modules && copy /whatever to my boot and rebooted. [22:38] Thank you very much [22:38] what is new in 10.10 ? anything major ? [22:38] Crypto: well plenty of other distros that can be tried as well :D [22:38] Nanovarium: Yes and no, there are patches for ext4 support for grub legacy.

I'm bitter and jaded and dont like linux unless there's a paycheck involved :D [22:40] sebsebseb: I dutifully try ever ubuntu release to see if it runs on whatever hardware I have at the time. if it doesnt I shake my head sadly and move on [22:40] Crypto: oh paid Linux support, so for servers and such mainly, rather than desktop Linux users?

[22:45] Lancelot: what kind of partitions are you talking about ? removable medias or internal drives ? [22:45] pie_time: /boot/ [22:45] is there a way to increase the area of which a mouse cursor can capture a window edge for resizing? [22:45] glebihan: it's all partitions on one physical hard drive [22:45] boinkboink: its defined in the gtk theme, how large the window borders are [22:46] boinkboink: to change it though you'd have to edit the config file [22:46] gconf? [22:46] If one you experts have seen the auto-shutdown and know of a fix, is there a way in IRC to chat one-on-one? This is my first time using IRC. [22:46] boinkboink: no, raw text file basically [22:46] Lancelot: then you should not be able to mount them without sudo... [22:46] have a name for it? [22:46] well I can just walk in and mount them [22:47] glebihan. I can just mount them though...so something is wrong here [22:47] Lancelot: ntfs partitions? [22:47] boinkboink: /usr/share/themes go browse a little , your looking for a gtkrc [22:47] <[--X--]> alzie, I've tried it again and that didn't work [22:47] hi folks, is it possible to set the gvfs-fuse ntfs partition to automount read-write at boot? [22:47] erUSUL: one is NTFS, one is fat32 [22:47] <[--X--]> alzie, isn't there just something wrong with the CD image? [22:47] man when I burn the iso at 4x or 8x the disc is unreadable. When i Burn it at max, it complains about errors during the installation and gets stuck on the Ubuntu loading screen before it even shoes the darn installer [22:47] hey guys, can you recommend a nice email app for ubuntu? [22:48] LordDragon: alpine [22:48] blakkheim, is that CLI ? [22:48] LordDragon: evolution comes packaged with it [22:48] aeon-ltd thank you i will. these old hands a little shaky and it would help.. ciao [22:48] LordDragon: yes [22:48] Lancelot: well windows partitions are handled differently ... more akin to removable media. you can use ntfs-config for the ntfs partition iirc [22:48] [--X--] you said you checked the image and it is ok? [22:48] boinkboink: glad i could guide you a little :) [22:48] ok, i meant to ask for a recommendation on a GUI email app [22:48] can anyone tell me how do i disable vsync? because glxgears is capped on 60fps and i want to test som xorg conf settings [22:48] <[--X--]> yeah, md5sum said it's ok [22:48] erUSUL, I just updated to maverick from karmic [22:48] The_Snake: glxgears is not a benchmark. [22:48] <[--X--]> but the CD just won't load, as if there is no bootloader in it [22:49] Lancelot: in one step? [22:49] ummm.... Should I wait or no one has seen the auto-shutdown? Thanks. [22:49] erUSUL, no [22:49] [--X--] you are burning it as an ISO right? [22:49] erUSUL: in karmic if I wanted to mount any partition that wasn't a removable drive I needed a password [22:49] can I ask a question? [22:49] erUSUL now I can just mount them directly [22:49] <[--X--]> yes, using brasero [22:49] Lancelot: as i said; try eith ntfs-config [22:49] [--X--]: check the bios, if its set to read the cd/dvd drive first [22:49] AndIrc: you just did [22:49] archlich: i'm at home which is server side at the moment, nmap localhostname -p22 = open ssh - do you mean for me to check client side? [22:49] LordDragon: I'd say thunderbird or evolution [22:49] I've messed up my sound somehow using jack and ardour, I'm not quite sure what is wrong. [22:49] i know it is not a benchmark.. i just want ot disable vsyc so i can test out some configs [22:49] Hello all, I'm having problems installing Ubuntu 10.10 The Live CD opens fine but the Install Ubuntu Icon does nothing.

I have to turn it on every morning when I get into the office. Is any of you familiar with this issue? [22:50] LordDragon: afaik, both [22:50] erUSUL: the thing is that it isn't only the NTFS partition. The FAT32 partition needed a password too [22:51] Hasen: I've never seen that issue... but how did you figure out that it shuts down at midnight? And is it asleep at the time? [22:51] [--X--] If it passes checksum and its a slow burn the only other thing I could see is its a DVD version on CD but that would have an error burning?

I can't select anything above 800x600 in the monitor settings === Cairo| is now known as Cairo|AFK [23:13] What command can i use to sync to internet time? [23:13] yes detrix42 [23:13] I am there [23:13] GreenDance: I really wouldn't do that [23:13] !ntp | martin_ [23:13] martin_: Information about using and setting your computer's clock on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime - See https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/NTP.html for information on usage of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) [23:14] GreenDance: Have your web script write to a file, and then have another process check that file and do the restart [23:14] martin_: ntpdate [23:14] Hasen: The syslog is probably the most likely for a shutdown trigger... You may need to look back at archived ones; they're all located in /var/log/, and you want syslog, or syslog.0, or syslog.1, etc... [23:14] Edwin_sv: do you have the window open showing all drives on your computer? [23:14] GreenDance: Making your http part of suders is a Very Bad Idea On Multiple Levels (tm) [23:14] glebihan: it says no servers can be used, exiting [23:14] !ntp | martin_ [23:14] martin_: Information about using and setting your computer's clock on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime - See https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/NTP.html for information on usage of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) [23:14] EPAstor: Thanks, let me look there real quick. [23:14] yes detrix42, I'm watching them [23:14] !away > Cairo|AFK [23:14] Cairo|AFK, please see my private message [23:15] right click on the flash drive.. [23:15] !help > EPAstor [23:15] EPAstor, please see my private message [23:15] seekwill: what I am trying to do is remotely reset apache using my php script [23:15] Edwin_sv: right click on the flash drive [23:15] yes, detrix42 [23:15] martin_: have a look at the links ilovefairuz gave you ^^ [23:15] GreenDance: I understand. THat's not a good idea, but if you must do it, do it the way I suggested [23:15] Edwin_sv: down near the bottom is a format [23:16] erUSUL: now what? [23:16] I have a hardware Raid10 on my Desktop and want to install 10.10 (64bit). It seems that parted doesn't get my raid right. The normal installer didn't work at all and i cam to a finish the install with minimal cd (64bit). But the bootloader didn't work out and i couldn't mount disks with a live cd (10.10). [23:16] GreenDance: If anything, make your script write to a database table. "Reboot = yes". Then have a cron script run locally that checks to see if Reboot = yes, and then it will restart. You can run the PHP as a user that can do it. [23:16] martin> install package ntp and then look at man ntp [23:16] Can anyone help? using intel xorg drivers I cannot get modelines. it worked fine on the livecd. is there a way i can see what the livecd did differently? [23:16] Felix_: What does "didn't work" mean? [23:16] ai6pg: how do i do that? [23:16] Lancelot: leave it unticked ? [23:16] Felix_: What does "didnt get my raid right?" [23:17] martin> sudo apt-get install ntp [23:17] Edwin_sv: did that help [23:17] Anyone able to point to the sources of the ubuntu 10.10 gtk engines needed for Ambiance ? [23:17] EPAstor: which directory would syslogs be in? [23:17] ok, detrix42 (let me tell you that option down't work, it always tells me that the device is mounted as read-only, and I can't mount it as r-w mode, even I have tried as root :-S) [23:17] erUSUL: okay, well the problem is persisting [23:17] Hasen: /var/log/ [23:17] EPAstor: thank you :) [23:17] seekwill: thanks, that's interesting [23:17] Edwin_sv: did you reboot after installing ubuntu [23:17] GreenDance: I mean, go ahead and do it... Just let me know the IP ;) [23:18] GreenDance: why not using ssh for that kind of task ? [23:18] yes detrix42, many times... [23:18] Glebelg: Why do people use cpanel??? :( [23:18] Edwin_sv: just being sure... [23:18] seekwill: Parted did show 2 disks (i would expect 1 disk, cause of raid 10) and after the install grub didn't show up [23:18] !off topic [23:18] glebihan: because with php I could do it from any web browser [23:18] What's a good video editor for simple annotations? [23:18] erUSUL: I'm gonna restart [23:18] hi. I've added Google repos to source.list. [23:18] brb [23:18] detrix42: I have tried with other PC with Ubuntu, but the problem is the same [23:18] Hasen, sudo cat /var/log/auth.log to start with look around midnight and see if there is any command passed (reboot, shutdown, whatever) [23:19] Now, how could I give priority to the "picasa" package on Google repos, instead of the ones on Ubuntu repos? [23:19] Felix_: Two doesn't make sense either. RAID10 should be either 4 or 1... When it saw two, what did it see? [23:19] Felix_: You need to provide a lot more detail in order to figure out what's going on. We can't see your screen [23:19] I ssh into my ubuntu box, and DISPLAY is blank - never been a problem before, but now when I run xev I get the error: "xev: unable to open display ''" [23:19] I mean, I would like to run 'sudo apt-get install picasa', and get the one from Google repos, not the one from Ubuntu repos [23:19] Edwin_sv: then you will have to do it the harder way...open a terminal if you haven't already. [23:19] GreenDance: well this is very unsafe, and unusual to restart a web server from a script executed by the server itself... === simulacrum is now known as Guest88762 [23:19] Hasen: bluefrog's right, /var/log/auth.log may be more useful to start with here. [23:20] seekwill: yea 2 doesn't seem right, i have 4x250gb and hardware raid10 with motherboard. But parted showed 2x250RAID disks [23:20] I'm getting 404 errors in all repositories in ubuntu 10.10. is it a known error? [23:20] which gtk engines does Ambiance use ? [23:20] glebihan: I thought that's how the likes of plesk / cpanel on linux do it? [23:20] noob here [23:20] question: [23:21] Felix_: I'd recreate the RAID. It would be unusual that the OS would see it that way [23:21] GreenDance: maybe, I wouldn't know [23:21] I need to connect to the internet via the command line [23:21] detrix42: I have tried some stuffs wuth the "harder way" :-/ [23:21] GreenDance: Those tools are horrible insecure [23:21] GreenDance: And they tend to break stuff [23:21] Edwin_sv: well now its my turn to try the harder way [23:21] detrix42: I have tried to watch the attributes of that device but shows me that can't recognaice the flags for that device [23:22] detrix42: :) [23:22] bluefrog: EPAstor: thanks. Just saw your messages. Let me look via sudo cat /var/log/auth.log [23:22] Edwin_sv: do you have a terminal open? [23:22] Hasen: less /var/log/auth.log gives a better interface, but sure [23:22] detrix42: I love the harder way (using the terminal!!! =D) [23:22] Jordan_U, You're the man dude. That little script works nicely. [23:22] GreenDance: You really should look into ssh [23:22] detrix42: yes, I have open already! :o) [23:23] Edwin_sv: then in the terminal type cat /proc/partitions [23:23] seekwill: yea thats what i thought and i did redo the raid allready. And just for a test i installed windows7 and everything was fine. So i am clueless. [23:23] Edwin_sv: try to find which dev the flash is: sdb? sdc? sdx? [23:23] erUSUL: I think I know what happened [23:23] erUSUL: I clicked auto configure... [23:23] Felix___: No idea. I've only seen it work, or not work. Though I tend not to use fakeraids. I prefer using Linux's RAID tools. They are much safer [23:24] Edwin_sv: ususally you can tell by the number of blocks [23:24] bluefrog: EPAstor: Can I ask for a seperate chat with you guys, So I can copy paste the log info, line by line? [23:24] root@ubuntu910:/media# cat /proc/partitions major minor #blocks name 8 0 80418240 sda 8 1 26266243 sda1 8 2 1 sda2 8 5 51889918 sda5 8 6 2257101 sda6 8 16 1921024 sdb [23:24] detrix42: root@ubuntu910:/media# cat /proc/partitions major minor #blocks name 8 0 80418240 sda 8 1 26266243 sda1 8 2 1 sda2 8 5 51889918 sda5 8 6 2257101 sda6 8 16 1921024 sdb [23:25] Hasen: usually for that, people use pastebin [23:25] * glebihan wonders if he can write a php script to run "rm -rf /" remotely [23:25] !pastebin Edwin_sv [23:25] !pastebin | Hasen [23:25] Hasen: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic. [23:25] EPAstor: I am sorry, but I am not familiar with pastebin, how do I use that ? [23:25] oh. [23:26] detrix42: that device is mounted in /dev/sdb (without partition specification) ¬¬ [23:26] EPAstor: oh! thanks. let me see the links real quick. [23:26] Edwin_sv: well it looks like sdb...is the flash drive a 2gig [23:26] No one knows which GTK engines the new theme uses ? [23:26] I get a blackscreen whenever I try to boot 10.10 :/ [23:26] !pastebinit [23:26] pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com [23:26] Okay, so I did my dist-upgrade, but compiz is having trouble. Slow, choppy, and wobbly windows no longer work right with dual monitors. Anyone else seeing this? Or have people moved on to something better than compiz for these nifty visual effects? [23:26] Edwin_sv: ok, then type sudo cfdisk /dev/sdb [23:26] My computer only boots into text only mode [23:26] text is cool [23:27] hi all. how can i access remotely the currently running desktop session? [23:27] Hasen: In that context, you'd install "pastebinit", then run "cat /var/log/auth.log | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com" [23:27] !vnc > rdz [23:27] rdz, please see my private message [23:27] erUSUL: are you still there? === JPM is now known as CapeTownParty [23:27] AndIrc: is it a fresh install ? [23:27] Lancelot: yes; sorry got distracted ? [23:27] brb bout to try out installing 10.10 from newly burnt cd [23:28] blakkheim, i know about vnc to create _new_ session, but how can i mirror the currently running session? [23:28] detrix42: appears a message "the disk is open read only; you have not permission to write on it" [23:28] My PC will only boot into text mode, startx gives a blackscreen, the safex variant from recover gives the same thing. Halp? [23:28] erUSUL:it didn't work, and it's still requiring root to mount and unmount [23:28] AndIrc my boots to cli to. in fact theres no X at all [23:28] Edwin_sv: just being sure....did you sudo [23:28] erUSUL: Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with: [23:28] mount: only root can mount /dev/sda1 on /media/sda [23:28] EPAstor: I think I have done it. It gave me this link: http://paste.ubuntu.com/511186/ [23:28] glebihan, no I just upgrayyed [23:28] Lancelot: i am confused; you wanted it to be that way ... to requier root? no? [23:28] Hasen: You got it. [23:29] detrix42: I am doing that as root user :$ [23:29] AndIrc: ok, does "sudo service gdm start" work ? [23:29] EPAstor: Thank you again for walking me through this ! Much apprecaited :) [23:29] erUSUL: I wanted it to make the password window pop up like it did in karmic [23:29] Edwin_sv: hmmmm....denying root, not a good thing. [23:29] pseudonymous: it depends on gtk2-engines-murrine (and refers to murrine in the gtkrc) [23:29] erUSUL: It asked for a password to mount, and let you unmount it without one === luke is now known as Guest7703 [23:29] detrix42: uhum... I imagine that ¬¬ [23:29] Hi! what image should I use of new Maverick if I got an intel core i3 processor? [23:29] erUSUL: this isn't working, so how can I undo this? [23:30] I recently upgraded to 10.10 and now my compiz plugins are acting weird, can anyone help? [23:30] guys..i had a dual boot win7 & maverick... i messed with the boot manager and now i cant even boot, it just sticks at win7 loader??? help please [23:30] can chatzilla be launched alone in ubuntu? [23:30] trism, yea, just figured out this instant looking at a custom package for my distro. Thx regardless ! [23:30] Edwin_sv: thinking [23:30] Hasen: The section you pasted didn't include a midnight... Was that all of /var/log/auth.log? [23:31] I recently upgraded to 10.10, Xorg won't start, I can't really do anything. ._. === ubuntu is now known as bo [23:31] Hasen: If so, then please paste in /var/log/auth.log.1 [23:31] hi all! i have a OT question, is it possible to run 2 X servers simultanously to run both KDE and gnome at the same time ?? [23:31] Are-: what error do you get ? [23:31] how can i reinstate the boot manager please\ [23:31] wow this chat is full of maverick's people [23:31] hold onn its updating its repos [23:31] Lancelot: really dunno; sorry. i expect ntfs-config to be able to undo whatever it does. [23:31] anyone of running 10.10 on a 2009 macbook pro? [23:31] *anyone of you [23:31] glebihan: well, it "starts" but its all black. [23:32] detrix42: I have tried write with dd on that /dev/sdb, remount as r,w with mount, fdisk /dev/sdb, but nothing :-( [23:32] Can't see any errormessage [23:32] Edwin_sv: can you umount it? [23:32] erUSUL: great, well off to the forums then [23:32] UK_Bob: 'sudo update-grub' in terminal [23:32] detrix42: yes I can [23:32] Lancelot: good luck [23:32] Are-: how do you start Xorg ? [23:32] ta.... can i run that from live cd? [23:32] anyone running Maverick on Intel Core i3? [23:32] Some of my compiz plugins will not start, giving me an error like "Error: InitObject failed" - can anyone help? [23:32] glebihan: startx from recovery mode. [23:32] EPAstor: Sorry about that, saw the missing time after pasting the original. The auth.log.1 is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/511187/ [23:33] detrix42: the problem is trying to mounting with rw permissions even I made it all as root o_O [23:33] Hasen: Don't worry. Apologies not needed! [23:33] Are-: startx alone may lead you to a black screen, try "start /usr/bin/gnome-terminal" or "start /usr/bin/gnome-session" [23:33] EPAstor: "pastebin" is awesome!! [23:33] UK_Bob> you may take a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 [23:33] random - i just get /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?)

I see no particular strange activity at midnight, not in this log anyway... [23:34] it still couldn't find root [23:34] Edwin_sv: Well, I am not sure what else to do.

[23:35] AndIrc: no error message either ? [23:36] manuel_: you have to install Flash into Ubuntu, but Windows doesn't come with Flash by default either [23:36] detrix42: I am in the same situation like you ;-) [23:36] EPAstor: Let me paste an excerpt from my log file of the script.

[23:37] Hi. I upgraded to Maverick Meerkat and now I get no sound in OO.org [23:37] EPAstor: I thought midnight because of these log entries of my script that runs. http://paste.ubuntu.com/511189/ [23:37] Are-: what about "startx /usr/bin/gnome-terminal" ? [23:37] manuel_: you may have got a computer that came with Windows and had Flash pre installed, but still not part of it by default. As for Chrome and Chomreium, well Choromeium no, Chrome yes by default. [23:37] glebihan, I was using gnome. [23:37] martin_: what? [23:37] I think it has to do with poulsbo drivers [23:37] AndIrc: try "sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop" [23:37] sebsebseb: you said you could answer my question :) [23:37] can nautilus display swf (non-flv) thumbnails [23:37] reinstall the whole os? [23:38] glebihan: Appears to be a blackscreen as well. [23:38] Hasen: No, I see your point, and there's even reason in auth.log to believe it shuts down at midnight... just no trace of a shutdown command being issued. Which is a bit odd. [23:38] martin_: I need to get used to using auto complete properly maybe :D I was meant to have messaged that to manuel_ as well [23:38] AndIrc: nope, only the desktop environment [23:38] Hi. I upgraded to Maverick Meerkat and now I get no sound in OO.org [23:38] sebsebseb: oh sorry :) [23:38] indio: do you get sound in other programs?

[23:39] My bios clock keeps going back one hour, any ideas? [23:39] Hasen: Any chance you could look through the syslogs and pastebin a section around midnight between Oct 7 and Oct 8? [23:39] indio: usually the versions of openoffice aren't matched with openoffice.org's debs [23:40] martin_: ##hardware [23:40] EnigmaticCoder: ask in #netbeans ? [23:40] Oh ty [23:40] usboot: OK.

[23:43] Could anyone else look at this? Hasen's system is apparently spontaneously shutting down at midnight; http://paste.ubuntu.com/511192/ has the chunk of syslog surrounding one such event, and I see the last message "kernel: [49994.973332] EXT4-fs (sda1): re-mounted. Opts: errors=remount-ro,commit=0" as suspicious - but I don't quite see what could be wrong. [23:43] can Ubuntu Maverick (or any earlier Ubuntu) run successfully on intel Core i3? [23:43] glebihan: Nothing. [23:43] like .bash_history [23:44] sorry was pulled away [23:44] Are-_: and you get nothing else in the error message ? [23:44] love: yes as long as i3 is i386 backwards compatible [23:44] I ssh into my ubuntu box, and DISPLAY is blank - never been a problem before, but now when I run xev I get the error: "xev: unable to open display ''" === ke_ is now known as kek [23:44] when I ssh into my box remotely, what / how can the DISPLAY be set correctly?

I've used the old kernel, and now it will. [23:44] love: the i386 image (not amd64) [23:45] there's also a 'history -c' command that clears the terminal history, but i'm not sure if the history will be saved somewhere else, can somebody tell me? [23:45] how can i get my grub menu to boot into win7...? it was supposed to be dual boot *-( [23:45] usboot: will the system run on 32 bits then instead of 64? [23:45] love: yes, but it will run [23:45] Matson: why not 'ssh ser@address' from the terminal? [23:45] hi [23:45] there is .bash_history [23:45] Jane_uk: ok [23:45] I am running ubuntu 10.04 on an hp tx2z tablet pc [23:45] Jane_uk: uhmm first of all, how did you install Ubuntu? [23:45] hi sebseb [23:45] randomOfAmber: I do that [23:45] but so far I am unable to install my ATI HD3200 vga driver [23:45] usboot: what are the disadvantages actually with running 32 instead of 64? on another computer I run both but 64 in the base so to speak [23:46] I use xQuartz on mac locally [23:46] baring in mind that am running 64_bit os [23:46] and ssh into the ubuntu box [23:46] anyone had such issue ? [23:46] seb - i have a netbook with 10,10 on... i installed ubuntu alongside my win7 [23:46] and when I get there, $DISPLAY is blank [23:46] love: there aren't really any disadvantages anymore as such, between 32bit and 64bit [23:46] EPAstor: Ok, I am back. [23:46] Matson: you're wanting a graphical desktop? [23:46] love: that is the length of the registers in the processor, you can see registers or 64-bit in wikipedia for diagrams/more summary [23:46] no [23:46] don't need graphics, though that would be nice [23:46] Jane_uk: ok the netbook version? [23:46] I'm trying to run xev [23:46] i get the grub screen but if i choose win7 , it wont load [23:47] yes seb [23:47] there are a bunch or wierd characters on an android device, I want to xmodmap them to work [23:47] Hasen: I see a trace of a shutdown, but I don't quite see why. Any chance I can get you to put /var/log/messages into pastebin, if it covers the right section of time? [23:47] anyone know why the system -> administration -> startup disk creator doesn't allow non-ubuntu *isos? [23:47] so xev is failing with """ xev: unable to open display '' """ [23:47] Hasen: Or /var/log/messages.1, or earlier if you need. [23:47] finally managed to get the disc to work (different stock cdrs burning without errors). Now after the installation it reboots, ejects the disc, and shows you the login prompt. I click on my username and punch in the password but now it's stuck, the login prompt is greyed out and it's not going anywhere.. Any ideas? [23:47] usboot: sebsebseb: thanks :-) do you even know how to check if the processor is backward compatible with the i386 arch from Windows? [23:47] i can boot into maverick tho [23:47] Jane_uk: probably since for some reason it didn't install right [23:47] Hi guys. Installed new 10.10 fresh and all I get is a black screen after I've installed. I'm after any help. [23:47] glebihan: The logfile reports errors at...hm "Failed to load module vmwgfx" "vmware: please ignore the above warnings about not being able to load module/driver vmwgfx" "open /dev/fb0: No such file or directory" [23:47] echo $DISPLAY just prints a blank line [23:47] EPAstor: sure, let me get those. === Elaine is now known as Guest35904 [23:47] "Segmention fault at address (nil)" [23:48] love: if you do 64bit version you basically can run the same or most of the same programs as the 32bit [23:48] Jane_uk: anyway right uhmm new to this? [23:48] i see..... i tried installing maverick again, but now i have 2 versions of maverick on netbook and 1 win7, that i cant boot into? [23:48] Jane_uk: ok that would probably explain it [23:48] yes sir [23:48] think i should have stuck with the ironing lol [23:49] Jane_uk: are you on the well I guess Live USB, since if you got a netbook, probably no CD drive [23:49] Jane_uk: nah this can be sorted out I expect [23:49] yes sir, i dont have cd drive [23:49] Jane_uk: ok got a bootable USB device with Ubuntu on it, that you installed from? [23:49] i can browse the win7 partition tho [23:49] Are-_: this looks like an issue with your graphics card drivers ? what model is it ? [23:49] Trying to install SMART tools using Ubuntu Software Center. package smart-notifier appears to be stuck on %74 percent and I'm not seeing any errors in dpkg.log or syslog... it appears to be stuck, however, as it's not doing anything. Anything I can do to find out what it's glitch is before I kill it? [23:50] Jane_uk: browse it using what? [23:50] yep, i have sd card [23:50] glebihan: To be honest, I'm not really sure. Any easy ways to find out? [23:50] some people use xauth, but I've never gotten it to work [23:50] Can someone help me with an NTFS partition? I can only mount and unmount it using terminal after running ntfs-config. How can I undo that? [23:50] Jane_uk: yes Ubuntu can read and write to your Windows partition [23:50] i can still get access to the maverick installation.... [23:50] anyone know why the system -> administration -> startup disk creator doesn't allow non-ubuntu *isos? [23:50] Jane_uk: ok so Windows won't boot, but Maverick does? [23:51] oh.... i have booted into 10.00 and was hoping to sort out the boot menu, to hopefully rewrite mbr [23:51] yes [23:51] Compiz is not working on my 10.10 Eee PC 1201PN. Has a solution been found for this? [23:51] Are-_: "lspci" should probably help you find out [23:51] I figured it out... ssh settings (-Y) [23:51] Jane_uk: yes you may have to run the update Grub command, but you were saying about two installs of Maverick on there? [23:51] sebsebseb: thanks a lot [23:51] glebihan, nope [23:51] usboot: I haven't had an issue in the past [23:51] Can someone help me with an NTFS partition? I can only mount and unmount it using terminal after running ntfs-config. How can I undo that? [23:52] Scunizi: i tried it on three different computers, two with 10.04 and one with 9.04, it doesn't show when you browse and select the iso [23:52] hi, the sound of ubuntu on my sony vaio is horribly low, even with everything at max, has anyone ever had this issue? [23:52] yes seb, i thought by reinstalling 10.10 from live cd, it would put the mbr back...but now it appears i have 2 installations..lol [23:52] Jane_uk: first I would suggest checking that the install is ok still partitionwise, then can do Grub [23:52] rodd, try opening terminal and type in alsamixer [23:52] Jane_uk: well yes if you install agian, it will put it back, but [23:52] rodd: what is the master level? [23:52] usboot: strange.. works for me on 9.10 / 10.04 both gnome and kde [23:52] AndIrc: didn't see anything looking like a video card in there ? [23:52] Lancelot, 100 [23:52] now the damn thing froze when I told it to restart [23:53] rodd: how about the others? [23:53] Jane_uk: well you will also get two /boots plus Grub on MBR, so probably to do with that why WIndows won't boot now [23:53] Scunizi: try to load ophcrack*.iso after downloading, see if you can get it to show [23:53] everything is at 100 [23:53] Jane_uk: altough did Windows ever boot from Grub? [23:53] weird [23:53] glebihan: Intel Corporation Systems Controller Hub (SCH Pulsbo) Graphics Controller (rev 07) [23:53] doah!!! can we rewrite the mbr [23:53] rodd, well I don't know then, sorry [23:53] =/ ok tahsnk anyway [23:53] yes....it did [23:53] Jane_uk: Why did you re install? [23:53] glebihan, trying to install poulsbo drivers.. [23:53] EPAstor: Ok, just pasted from 5-6, 6-7, 7-8, 8-11. http://paste.ubuntu.com/511205/ [23:53] usboot: sorry I don't have the time to do that. perhaps someone else will be willing to do that. [23:54] Scunizi: let me see if other *.isos will work, one sec [23:54] cos, i was getting a Maverick could not load /lib/modules/2.6.35-22-generic/modules.dep [23:54] Jane_uk: well at least you didn't put Windows on again after Ubuntu, if you had done that, the MBR would have been overwriteen so that only Windows boots, and then its a bit of a pain to fix Grub so both boot again. === don is now known as Guest65355 [23:54] Scunizi: no, no isos show when you browse and select them, find an iso on your system thats non-ubuntu and try yourself [23:54] tho now i know it is a bug with the distro [23:54] EPAstor: Ok, just pasted from 5-6, 6-7, 7-8, 8-11. http://paste.ubuntu.com/511205/ [23:55] Jane_uk: ok something to do with the kernel that message [23:55] i still getting "no root file system is defined" [23:55] yes see here:- [23:55] Can I get a suggestion for setup (maybe a script or small program) of associated user accounts, virtual hosts, email, and ftp? [23:55] anybody will explain what wrong i did? [23:55] Hasen: I'm lost, sorry. I don't see what it could be... Maybe someone else has an idea? That, or go to the forums; your pastebins will definitely be useful for that [23:55] glebihan, "dpkg: error processing psb-kernel-headers (--remove): subprocess installed post-removal script returnedd error exit status 1 [23:55] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/642421 [23:55] Jane_uk: ok i'll have a look [23:56] hi all, how can I add a new directory to the path envvar? [23:56] EPAstor: Thank you for looking into these. Much appreciated! [23:56] usboot: I currently don't have any non ubuntu iso on my system.. but in the past I've done Crunchbang, DSL, and a couple of others. [23:56] EPAstor: I will post them on the forums. Thank you. [23:56] basically the installation went well but so slow on boot up... [23:57] Jane_uk: ok did you start off with a clean 10.10 install? [23:57] Jane_uk: you didn't upgrade form 10.04 right? [23:57] usboot: you might need to use unetbootin to get it to work at this point. There should be no reason why the utility can't see the iso.. I'm pretty sure they didn't cripple it for ubuntu iso only. [23:57] initially i had win7, then i installed 10.04, then upgraded to 10.10 beta [23:58] then 10.10 [23:58] Jane_uk: ah [23:58] Are-_: try "sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gma500/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install psb-kernel-source " [23:58] Jane_uk: ok well one of those comments on the bug reports, said they got the error after updating from 10.04 === gianni is now known as roxdragon [23:58] i see... i should have just lived with the error..instead of trying to reinstall [23:58] hello all, I am working on T22 Thinkpad for someone else, 10.04 installed, need APIC support which dmesg indicates is disabled, anyone else with similar experience? and if so, is there a fix??? [23:59] Jane_uk: also your install won't be that clean, if it was 10.04 updated to the beta, and then to final [23:59] ur rite [23:59] anoyone get artifacts on the bottom panel when there is a black wallpaper? [23:59] hello [23:59] Jane_uk: yes they say that, if you upgrade from a development version you get the proper final, well sure you do, but things don't always work how they are meant to [23:59] AndIrc: try "dpkg --force-all --purge psb-kernel-headers" === Pilif|hw is now known as Pilif12p|afk [23:59] Jane_uk: also upgrades tend to go well of versions, but again, that can mess up sometimes [23:59] Isn't it safe to install a Ubuntu dist upgrade by downloading the iso, mounting it, and making sure sources.list is configured to make use of it as a repo? [23:59] The-Jag: you can add a line to the end of your ~/.bashrc such as: export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/add
