| jimisrvrox | hey guys im using the disk utility to try to format my usb drive...for whatever reason I am unable to format it as a filesystem so when I unplug it and plug it back in it doesnt show up in Nautilus...also is there a way to mount it from the terminal so that I dont have to unplug it instead just re-mount it? | 00:00 |
| sebsebseb | Jane_uk: yep bingo thats what I was going to suggest | 00:00 |

| glebihan | Are-_: sorry probably "xserver-xorg-video-psb" rather than "psb-kernel-source" | 00:00 |
| sebsebseb | Jane_uk: however one little thing, Windows 7 won't just boot up, untill you put Grub back on again and it works how its meant to | 00:00 |
| sebsebseb | Jane_uk: unless you use some sort of Windows install media to fix the MBR so only Windows boots | 00:00 |
| Jane_uk | doah | 00:00 |
| sebsebseb | Jane_uk: don't wory I have another idea, as well if the 10.10 clean install doesn't quite work out :D | 00:01 |

| trism | xiven: you can upgrade that way with the alternative iso, although you don't need to touch your sources.list, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MaverickUpgrades#Upgrading Using the Alternate CD/DVD | 00:03 |
| sebsebseb | Jane_uk: also you can't delete an Ubuntu install, when it is running, hence needing a bootable media | 00:03 |
| robin0800 | kb8wmc: just add lapic to /etc/default/grub | 00:03 |
| glebihan | Are-_: what error message did you get ? | 00:03 |

| Robinux | heya guys whats the difference between desktop and server edition, won't i have apache2 and php5 on the desktop edition? | 00:05 |
| robin0800 | kb8wmc: you have then to run sudo update-grub and then reboot | 00:05 |
| trism | Robinux: basically just the default installed set of packages, you can indeed install everything from the repos on either version | 00:05 |
| sebsebseb | !server | robin0800 | 00:05 |
| ubottu | robin0800: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server specific !kernel and no !GUI.

| sebsebseb | robin0800: right so | 00:06 |
| glebihan | Are-_: ok those are unrelated errors, what does "sudo apt-get -f install" do ? | 00:06 |
| caemir | !kernel | 00:06 |
| sebsebseb | sorry robin0800 wrong one, robin0800 see above | 00:06 |
| ubottu | 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 | 00:06 |

| almoparmeg | how to install make-3.80.tar.bz2 package please ? | 00:06 |
| sebsebseb | robin0800: also that factoid alone doesn't really answer your question properly, so i'll explain it | 00:07 |
| Are-_ | glebihan: "dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem" | 00:07 |

| almoparmeg | how to install make-3.80.tar.bz2 package please ? | 00:08 |
| sebsebseb | robin0800: server version is basically Ubuntu, but without a GUI, and then you can easilly set up servers on it. 10.04 since its long term support gets five years of support, where as the desktop version only three. 10.10 is 18 months for both versions. | 00:08 |
| kb8wmc | robin0800: this is an IBM Thinkpad T22 if that is of use | 00:08 |
| sebsebseb | Robinux: uhmm I thought I sorted it out, the mesasging wrong persons, but your name isn't so easy to auto complete properly, so see above :) | 00:08 |
| Robinux | i did | 00:09 |
| Robinux | sebsebseb thanks | 00:09 |

| e66_ | I have a strange problem. If I plug my wireless lan dongle and start Ubuntu, it doesn't start. hangs after grub menu. If I start my pc without the dongle it starts fine. Its happening for 10.04. But it never happened on 9.04-9.10. what to do? | 00:27 |
| Are-_ | glebihan: Ran without any problems. | 00:27 |
| tomreyn | has anything changed in maverick which could explain why thunderbird is steadily on top of iotop now? | 00:28 |
| tomreyn | it keeps writing little chunks to disk all the time | 00:28 |
| jay_ | hmmm | 00:28 |
| alzie | jay_: try changing the server to a different one ie main servers | 00:28 |
| glebihan | Are-_: ok then try "sudo apt-get -f install xserver-xorg-video-psb" | 00:28 |
| Skaperen | e66_: there's a problem with the dongle's partition table | 00:28 |
| tomreyn | that's quite annoying when you're on a laptop trying to save energy | 00:28 |
| Skaperen | e66_: did you make it with unetbootin? | 00:29 |
| jay_ | its on main server already | 00:29 |
| e66_ | Skaperen: Its a USB wlan card. | 00:29 |
| prayii | Gwibber is not updating all my account feeds since updating to 10.10. Is this a known bug? | 00:29 |
| jay_ | change that? | 00:29 |
| xiven | How do you upload and/or download through an SSH Shell connection? | 00:29 |
| Skaperen | e66_: that's what you are booting from? | 00:29 |
| alzie | jay_: the servers may still be swamped righ now | 00:29 |
| AndIrc | glebihan, Did, same error.... "No diversion 'any diversion of /usr/incluse/drm/XXXX.h', none removed. | 00:30 |
| Felix___ | I get a i/o error around 85% of the installer (10.10/64bit) but cd and hdds checked, what could be the problem? | 00:30 |
| Are-_ | glebihan: Done. | 00:30 |
| e66_ | Skaperen: No. It boots from hdd. It has nothing to do with Netboot or USB boot. Its just a network device. USB Wlan card | 00:30 |
| jay_ | ok, I get this warning from RIT server.. | 00:30 |
| jay_ | http://pastebin.com/qzLzEXjw | 00:31 |
| glebihan | Are-_: ok now you may have to reboot in order for the new modules to be loaded | 00:31 |
| Skaperen | e66_: oh, OK ... then N/M ... I missed or misunderstood something you said | 00:31 |
| dipu | hi .. i am not able to see any buttons on the top of the menu for any application .. any idea ? | 00:31 |
| Ethelim | is the Ubuntu iso going to work when burned to a DVD-R? My "superdrive" doesn't like cdrs :( | 00:31 |
| jay_ | * when just reloading sources | 00:31 |
| Skaperen | Ethelim: yes, a CD ISO works fine on DVDR media | 00:32 |
| Ethelim | great, thanks | 00:32 |
| Skaperen | Ethelim: in fact, it often works better | 00:32 |
| jay_ | maybe I should try back in a week or 2 ;) | 00:32 |
| Blue1 | bazhang: I fixed the firefox instability: http://pkill-9.com/wordpress/?p=382 | 00:32 |
| Skaperen | Ethelim: the dyes used for CDr are low contrast phthlo class ... for DVDr is it high contrast azo class | 00:33 |
| e66_ | Skaperen: I always use this USB wlan card to get connected to my network. So it alwasy connected. When I boot my pc it gets the Internet easily through my router. That way I used 9.04, 9.10. Now I updated to 10.04. Now I see Ubuntu stuck after grub. If I remove the device it boots normally. | 00:33 |
| alzie | jay_: that or try in the forums, I usually wait for at least a week before upgrades tho | 00:33 |
| Skaperen | Ethelim: the tradeoff is DVDs are more easily damaged by sunlight and wicked lasers | 00:33 |
| jlantz | How do i move my home folder from old 500gb hd with 10.04 to a new 1tb hd with 10.10 on it? none of my ubuntu books talk about it. | 00:33 |
| jay_ | ok alzie no rush | 00:33 |
| nsahoo | hi guys, just setup a new remote ubuntu machine, but it is refusing ssh connection. here is the error message http://pastebin.com/8n3BZMvV any idea why? | 00:33 |
| jay_ | thx for the chat | 00:33 |
| seekwill | nsahoo: SSH isn't running | 00:34 |
| Skaperen | Ethelim: if the CDr works, it will likely work longer than the DVDr ... like 15 years vs 5 years ... as if that matters | 00:34 |
| gasull | Hi. I'm trying to install fabric 0.9.2 in a virtualenv while I have fabric 0.9.0 in my system. So I do virtualenv envdir; source envdir/bin/activate; pip install fabric; This last command shows this output and does nothing: http://dpaste.com/256558/ What am I doing wrong? | 00:34 |
| nsahoo | seekwill: are you sure? isn't it default to start on new installs? | 00:34 |
| dogmatic69 | where do i add something like windows global path variables. | 00:35 |
| seekwill | nsahoo: Depends on how you installed it. Usually connection refused means "firewall open, but no one is listening" | 00:35 |
| Skaperen | e66_: sounds like a driver problem ... are you in the install phase, or booting an installed system? | 00:35 |
| glebihan | AndIrc: I'm running out of ideas... try "sudo dpkg --reconfigure psb-kernel-headers" maybe | 00:35 |
| seekwill | nsahoo: It could be it's still booting... | 00:35 |
| nsahoo | seekwill: you are probably right, i setup nfs and it's working. but, ssh isn't. | 00:35 |
| Ethelim | well I only need it to last for this installation, been trying a USB stick but that wouldn't be recognized as a boot device on the macbook (and while recognized wouldn't boot up the Ubuntu installer on the PC) | 00:36 |
| dogmatic69 | PATH environment variables or something like that | 00:36 |
| gasull | nsahoo: The ssh server isn't on by default, at least not in the desktop edition | 00:36 |
| sakekasi | how do i enable multitouch in 10.10? | 00:36 |
| e66_ | Skaperen: I have a usable system. I am in a booting phase of a installed system. It stucks after grub. | 00:36 |
| Skaperen | Ethelim: USB memory sticks populated via unetbootin tend to have issues with problems that pre-existed on there | 00:36 |
| zu22 | i heard 10.10 ships with some issue with grub2 and multi booting, true/false? | 00:37 |
| Are-_ | glebihan: Attempting failsafex | 00:37 |
| glebihan | dogmatic69: add a line looking like "export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/add" in ~/.bashrc | 00:37 |
| === ariel is now known as Guest78104 | ||
| dogmatic69 | thanks | 00:37 |
| aeon-ltd | zu22: search forums and bug reports | 00:37 |
| Skaperen | Ethelim: wipe the USB memory stick, repartition and reformat a FAT filesystem, then do unetbootin to make it a Ubuntu installer | 00:37 |
| zu22 | ae86-drifter: ok | 00:37 |
| Are-_ | glebihan: Still blackscreen :S | 00:37 |
| glebihan | Are-_: try "sudo X -configure" again | 00:38 |
| dogmatic69 | glebihan: just at the bottom? | 00:38 |
| Skaperen | Ethelim: or, burn the ISO to a DVD ... which I've done for years | 00:38 |
| glebihan | dogmatic69: yes | 00:38 |

| zu22 | swordz: ah :) | 00:38 |
| sakekasi | how do i enable multitouch in 10.10? | 00:38 |
| Ethelim | Already tried that a few times, installing the image on the stick from both macosx and win7, neither did the trick | 00:38 |
| swordz | I HAVE had trouble with wireless | 00:38 |
| swordz | Still am having trouble... | 00:38 |
| usboot | anyone know why the system -> administration -> startup disk creator doesn't allow non-ubuntu *isos? | 00:38 |
| zu22 | swordz: that seems common in many linux distros | 00:38 |
| swordz | It worked fine previously | 00:38 |
| ilovefairuz | usboot: use unetbootin | 00:39 |
| zu22 | oh pity | 00:39 |
| swordz | And is currently working fine, else I wouldn't be here | 00:39 |
| rypervenche | I updated to Maverick, now when I run Compiz, I get a window that constantly opens and closes on my bottom panel saying it's configuring or something. | 00:39 |
| kazoo | How do i look up the specs on my os | 00:39 |
| usboot | ilovefairuz: i know thats an alternative, i still would like an answer to my original question | 00:39 |
| swordz | It's the latest kernel image, no idea why it's not working | 00:39 |
| zu22 | swordz: wish you luck | 00:39 |
| alzie | usboot: it is an ubuntu utility for ubuntu, try unet bootin for other os | 00:39 |
| rypervenche | How can I get rid of that window? | 00:39 |
| Ethelim | I ordered two different brand USB sticks to try this on - curious if Ubuntu could reside entirely on that stick. I recon it'll be slow, but carrying around my own OS on a stick might be useful at times | 00:39 |
| ilovefairuz | swordz: pastebin: lshw -C network; rfkill list | 00:39 |
| topper | @usboot for the same reason Apple doesn't let you install their OS on anything except Apple's | 00:39 |
| Are-_ | glebihan: Segmention fault, unable to open /dev/fb0 again | 00:39 |
| Smilodonis | usboot: it says: To try or install Ubuntu from a removable disk, it needs to be set up as a startup disk. | 00:39 |
| usboot | alzie: what does the ubuntu utility flag, the md5 or the filename to block all non-ubuntu isos? | 00:39 |
| swordz | ilovefairuz Now? Or when it doesn't work? | 00:40 |
| Skaperen | Ethelim: you might try my hybrid installer images ... but it isn't ready yet for 10.10 ... working on it tonight | 00:40 |
| Vibedigital | hi getting the error when trying run compiz on maverick meerkat Fatal: No manageable screens found on display :0.0 | 00:40 |
| ilovefairuz | swordz: does it stop working randomly? | 00:40 |
| Vibedigital | someone can help? | 00:40 |
| swordz | No, it didn't work consistently | 00:40 |
| swordz | Then I rebooted into the old kernel, no problems | 00:40 |
| rypervenche | Vibedigital, I too am having Compiz issues on Maverick. :( | 00:40 |
| alzie | usboot: I don't know, it appears to be a fork for ubuntu use | 00:40 |
| Skaperen | Ethelim: it is NOT unetbootin based ... it uses dd to write the image to the USB memory stick ... it erases everything from the stick in the process | 00:40 |
| swordz | I'm currently in the old kernel, so everything's fine | 00:40 |
| Are-_ | glebihan: dpkg --configure -a gives an error while processing psb-kernel-source. | 00:40 |
| kazoo | How do i look up the specs on my os | 00:40 |
| ilovefairuz | swordz: no wired connection? | 00:40 |
| zu22 | rypervenche: compiz is resource hog, i don't run it :D | 00:41 |
| swordz | Not easily | 00:41 |
| swordz | And not at 00:40am :p | 00:41 |
| ilovefairuz | swordz: you'll need one to pastebin | 00:41 |
| usboot | kazoo: sudo lshw | 00:41 |
| rypervenche | zu22, Be that as it may, it is very useful for me. | 00:41 |
| swordz | Copy to file, then paste | 00:41 |
| Dini | how can i add mediubuntu in 10.10 ? | 00:41 |
| zu22 | rypervenche: ok wish you best | 00:41 |
| jlantz | How do i move my home folder from old 500gb hd with 10.04 to a new 1tb hd with 10.10 on it? none of my ubuntu books talk about it. | 00:41 |
| swordz | I'll do it tomorrow, and come back, thanks | 00:41 |
| hDy | hey guys, i'm trying to make a usb bootable drive of ubuntu 10.10 using Universal USB Installer and it starts to extract stuff using 7zip and gets an error saying "Data error in 'casper\filesystem.squashfs". File is broken" is my iso corrupted? | 00:41 |
| Skaperen | Ethelim: it's a special image I build, and thus another file to download ... but it can work BOTH as a USB flash drive image (use dd, etc) and also as an ISO (use cdrecord, etc) | 00:42 |
| Ethelim | I'm gonna try burning to DVD as a start to get it installed on this macbook for starters. Yea I think that's what the guide says about creating the USB stick iso on the mac, or something along those lines | 00:42 |

| AndIrc | glebihan, could it be because I ran the upgrade for servers? | 01:10 |
| ridin | maybe you need to try the latest version, i think? i don't think you're using the latest | 01:11 |
| glebihan | AndIrc: yes it sure could... | 01:11 |
| gyre | ridin: all flash support in Linux is awful | 01:11 |
| mamece2 | rindin, but the screensaver must not be applied while im into fullscreen mode | 01:11 |
| gyre | CPU is going nuts from flash | 01:11 |
| kismet | dual monitor issue with compiz.... compiz won't start...any sugestions | 01:11 |

| ubuntu-maverick | Can you help me? I don't know how to make PulseAudio play sound from Line-In | 01:17 |
| ubuntu-maverick | I mean, I can't make my guitar sound in Ubuntu 10.10 | 01:17 |

| ubuntu-maverick | How can this be? | 01:17 |
| jmichaelx | since upgrading to maverick, i notice that mplayer no longer shows up in my menu. i have mplayer, mplayer-nogui and mplayer-skins installed... should mplayer not therefore be in the menu? | 01:18 |

| tiox | Moonlight's awesome./ | 01:20 |
| jmichaelx | Quantum_Ion: '/usr/bin/mplayer' | 01:20 |
| aeon-ltd | jmichaelx: i think gmplayer was removed | 01:20 |
| kalle_ | the manpages also refer to those dirs and files | 01:20 |
| Jarrhed | My account (Jantire) got banned from #ubuntu-offtopic for saying "naggers"... | 01:20 |
| Quantum_Ion | jmichaelx, make a launcher on your desktop called Mplayer and enter /usr/bin/mplayer | 01:21 |
| Jarrhed | I don't really think that's an offensive word | 01:21 |
| Fishscene | Jarrhed: Rightly so. | 01:21 |
| LjL | Jarrhed: don't even start here | 01:21 |
| Jarrhed | Fishscene: Do you think "naggers" is offensive | 01:21 |
| Quantum_Ion | jmichaelx, if you type mplayer in the terninal it will run the program | 01:21 |
| Fishscene | Jarrhed: Please be more sensitive to ANY and ALL potentially racist remarks. | 01:21 |
| Jarrhed | I will copy and paste the definition of naggers | 01:21 |

| kismet | Hi, if I use dual monitor on my laptop (intel graphic) compize settings are not working. Only if I switch off the laptop monitor and work on the connected one, then I can start compiz, but if both (side by side) it won't work | 01:25 |
| tucemiux | how do you installl partimage on lucid??? | 01:25 |
| sakekasi | aerosolapple what specifically is your resolution problem? | 01:25 |
| vandao | s | 01:25 |
| ubuntu-maverick | Does anybody know anything about PulseAudio? | 01:25 |
| jmichaelx | aeon-ltd: gmplayer is not in lucid's repos, either.... yet in lucid, i have an mplayer gui | 01:25 |
| Quantum_Ion | jmichaelx, gmplayer is just a symbolic link to mplayer | 01:25 |
| RRU_Sciguy | aerosolapple, System>Preferences>monitors | 01:25 |
| aeon-ltd | jmichaelx: it may be called gecko-mplayer | 01:26 |
| jmichaelx | Quantum_Ion: ok, then i am back to my original question.... | 01:26 |
| aerosolapple | @sakekasi: i cannot actually get to the gnome button located bottom left of desktop | 01:26 |
| GuyForget | Hi, lspci -k says that my graphics card (intel i915) should be using i915 driver, but when I load Xorg it uses vesa | 01:26 |
| jmichaelx | aeon-ltd: gecko-mplayer, as far as i know, is just an mplayer plugin for browsers | 01:26 |
| matts45acp | im new to ubuntu and trying to get a dvd to play, can somone help me out | 01:26 |
| aerosolapple | im using irc via moto droid bear with me please | 01:26 |
| aeon-ltd | jmichaelx: thats what the g stands for though | 01:26 |
| Quantum_Ion | jmichaelx, so now you know gmplayer is just a symbolic link to mplayer | 01:26 |
| jmichaelx | aeon-ltd: i disagree.... | 01:27 |
| aeon-ltd | jmichaelx: googling now... | 01:27 |
| iflema | kismet does compiz start if both monitors have small resolutions say both on 1024x768.... | 01:27 |
| matts45acp | im new to ubuntu and trying to get a dvd to play, can somone help me out | 01:27 |
| jags | It was a really bad idea to upgrade to 10.10 on both my systems, compiz doesn't work on my desktop and my notebook doesn't even boot | 01:27 |
| jags | just sitting at * Checking battery state . . . | 01:27 |
| aeon-ltd | jmichaelx: i am incorrect, 'GraphicMinimalistic Player' | 01:28 |
| RRU_Sciguy | and now for a toughie, couldnt find any info on this one: I am booting ubuntu from a vhd created by wubi, and I wanna know if it is possible to install another linux distro on the vhd | 01:28 |
| Quantum_Ion | jags, Why did you run a jump to 10.10 it makes sens to use the most stable Ubuntu Linux distro which is 10.04 | 01:28 |
| jags | Is there anyway to downgrade back to 10.4.1? | 01:28 |
| RRU_Sciguy | jags: I have had no problems | 01:28 |

| jmichaelx | aeon-ltd: the package i want is 'mplayer-gui'.... it has apparently been removed | 01:28 |
| Quantum_Ion | I will wait a while before I upgrade to 10.10 | 01:28 |
| jags | Quantum_Ion, I just noticed the upgrade in the update windows and was like, oh cool new version | 01:28 |
| Quantum_Ion | wait until the bugs are worked out | 01:28 |
| * sakekasi how do i enable multitouch in 10.10 | 01:29 | |
| jmichaelx | Quantum_Ion: wise man | 01:29 |
| jags | so the only way I can go back to 10.4.1 is to reinstall? | 01:29 |
| sakekasi | jags yes | 01:29 |
| kismet | iflema, no I set the res to 1024 on both screens and still it won't start | 01:29 |
| matts45acp | im new to ubuntu and trying to get a dvd to play, can somone help me out | 01:29 |
| medgno | I used to run debian unstable (sid), so upgrading to 10.10 doesn't scare me at this point | 01:29 |
| sakekasi | jags yes unless someone knows something i dont which is probable | 01:29 |

| kismet | iflema, yes if I set the monitor positions on top of each other it works, but side by side... it doesn't | 01:35 |

| RRU_Sciguy | jmichaelx, the movieplayer, and yeah, vlc player is the all-round best player ive found | 01:36 |
| sakekasi | aerosolapple it depends on your client im using the webclient so I wouldn't know. sorry :( | 01:36 |
| jmichaelx | Quantum_Ion: i have switched to vlc for the time being... although vlc is unable to play audio on a fair percentage of .flv's | 01:36 |

| Quantum_Ion | jmichaelx, building vlc from source might be a little challenging for you if your not familiar with how to obtain development libraries | 01:38 |
| jmichaelx | Quantum_Ion: does building vlc from source require dev libs that are not in the repos? | 01:38 |

| pie_time | does anyone know what happened to resolv-conf? i cant find it in synaptic? was it replaced by another package? | 01:43 |
| pie_time | please someone tell me | 01:43 |
| tiox | pc500, did you check software sources? | 01:43 |
| medgno | mrbrown: very strange. I've never had problems with it. Maybe someone else has an idea | 01:43 |
| rautamiekka | demitrius: Didn't ? That's odd. Then I'm out of ideas. | 01:43 |
| demitrius | rautamiekka; D'oh! I'm an idiot. Yep, it just worked now! | 01:43 |

| demitrius | rautamiekka, thank you! | 01:44 |
| mrbrown | megno: Yes, they had some mess in their startup files. And | 01:44 |
| mrbrown | I was wondering if they fixed that. | 01:44 |
| rww | pc500: Don't use dist-upgrade to upgrade to a new version of Ubuntu, follow the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MaverickUpgrades | 01:44 |
| pc500 | tiox - Not really -- can this be done via CLI? | 01:44 |
| pc500 | ok, thanks | 01:44 |
| tiox | pc500, go to System > Administration > Software Sources and see if normal releases is chosen on the update tab. | 01:44 |
| demitrius | rautamiekka: it's always easy when you know the trick. Thanks a ton! :) | 01:44 |
| pc500 | I assume I need to do 9.1 -> 10.04 then -> 10.10? | 01:44 |
| rautamiekka | pc500: The 'dist-upgrade' is used to force upgrade on each and every upgradable package there is. Read rww's link. | 01:44 |
| perro | interesante pero hay chicas...? | 01:44 |
| pc500 | ok will do | 01:44 |
| * peanuter looks around | 01:44 | |

| rautamiekka | pc500: Unless you're on a Ubuntu Server, check up System Monitor. | 01:45 |

| mesees | rypervenche, the thing ubuntu cant do | 02:31 |
| mesees | what do you use for VM? | 02:31 |
| Dr_Willis | rypervenche: a theme can set its own order. The theme files have some script that sets the order. | 02:31 |

| rypervenche | Dr_Willis, But it is like that even for Ubuntu's default themes. It didn't used to be that way, but for some reason it changed. | 02:31 |
| Teh_Chaos | anybody know? | 02:32 |
| rypervenche | mesees, I use VirtualBox. You can find the ppa on www.virtualbox.org . And yeah, until iTunes creates a Linux version, you will have to find another way of syncing. | 02:32 |
| ChogyDan | Teh_Chaos: I believe it has to do with disk partitioning. It is going to create a partition of the size you choose, and auto set it up | 02:32 |
| dakota | anyone | 02:32 |
| pksadiq | Teh_Chaos: the size is reserved for Ubuntu Packages and files To be saved in Ubuntu, It could not be Accessed from Windows | 02:32 |
| rypervenche | Dr_Willis, I don't want to have to change it back every time I want to try a new theme out. | 02:33 |
| Teh_Chaos | but does it matter which size I pick? | 02:33 |
| Lint01 | how to extract TAG/GZIP archive in Ubuntu? | 02:33 |
| ChogyDan | Teh_Chaos: it is a somewhat permanent decision | 02:33 |
| Dr_Willis | rypervenche: make a script for your user to set them how you want. If you change themes - each theme can have its own script it rns that sets them the way the theme maker decides.. thats just how it works. (its an awkeard cludge) | 02:34 |
| pksadiq | Teh_Chaos: May be, If you need more packages to install You might need more, You can't resize the Partitions once made in a simple way | 02:34 |

| ChogyDan | Teh_Chaos: what are the options? | 02:34 |
| rypervenche | Dr_Willis, Why would my normal themes be affected by this? | 02:35 |

| azkor | I have uninstalled evolution and replaced it with thunderbird. In the envelope menu, when I click Mail, nothing happens. Why? | 02:37 |
| azkor | I have insttalled gnome support for thunderbird. | 02:38 |
| ChogyDan | Teh_Chaos: well, the install will take no more than 10GB. Might as well start with the 17GB, since you have plenty. It really depends if you are going to download a bunch of stuff | 02:38 |
| pksadiq | Sickler Blueman , I feel is enough | 02:38 |

| azkor | Lint01, can you tell me how do I do that exactly? | 02:39 |
| Teh_Chaos | well I don't think i'll be using *too* much | 02:39 |
| noisewaterphd | meee: quit screwing around and get back to work | 02:39 |

| iflema | azkor i cant remember now you might have to switch it on in evolution plugins interface (edit menu) and when firefox asks for th app to use point it to /usr/bin/evolution-import-rss | 02:48 |
| markboston | dakota can you download it via firefox? | 02:48 |
| Teh_Chaos | sorry, but anyway, it says "permission denied" and gives me a file to check out. When I type in the path though, it says it doesn't exist. Anyone know anything about this? I'm using Windows 7. | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | Lint01: theres several gui front ends - they just call the back end commands. | 02:49 |
| pedrosanta | I'm on Ubuntu 10.04 and when I run "update-manager -d" the upgrade option upgrades to the RC of Maverick Meerkat 10.10. I want the final release. How can I do that? Use another update mirror? | 02:49 |

| ChogyDan | dakota: did you install repo? | 02:49 |
| dakota | markboston yes I am doin it in the command line, I am using firefox. | 02:49 |
| Dr_Willis | To allow the archive-manager to use the various tyopes of differnt archives - one must install the proper back end commands. | 02:49 |
| rww | pedrosanta: follow the instructions in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MaverickUpgrades | 02:49 |
| Teh_Chaos | pksadiq: It runs as admin by default. | 02:49 |
| beforeyoufall | could somebody help me figure out why ubuntu won't install? | 02:50 |
| pedrosanta | rww: thanks | 02:50 |
| dakota | ChogyDan yes I did it still don't work. | 02:50 |
| meee | <markboston> i got the game installed but when i start it the monitor says frequency out of range | 02:50 |
| beforeyoufall | I made partition and everything... why won't it install over windows 7? | 02:50 |
| ChogyDan | dakota: you still need to ask the android folks. This chat is for Ubuntu | 02:50 |
| markboston | dakota you are at developer.android.com and seleted the linux version? | 02:50 |
| Dr_Willis | meee: for some games in wine. Ive had to set them to run in a window. not full screen. | 02:50 |
| pksadiq | Teh_Chaos: even though you are an Admin, it might not execute as Admin, right click and run as Admin | 02:50 |
| mordinruth | just type "file-roller" | 02:51 |
| Teh_Chaos | pksadiq: Just tried that, just in case, didn't work | 02:51 |
| dakota | markboston what do you mean, I want the source of the android-x86 port | 02:51 |
| markboston | meee are you running the game through wine? | 02:51 |
| meee | <markboston> ya | 02:51 |
| markboston | dakota oh i thought you were talking about the sdk | 02:51 |
| pksadiq | meee: Did you try F11 or ALT+ Enter ? | 02:51 |
| Teh_Chaos | also the error log it tells me the path for is in the temp folder, which is why I think I can't access it | 02:51 |
| meee | <markboston> whats that | 02:51 |
| Lint01 | fileroller is 26 MB large, is there something smaller? | 02:52 |
| pedrosanta | rww: did what wiki said, still appears RC to update | 02:52 |
| dakota | markboston no I need the source to compile | 02:52 |
| Teh_Chaos | because the temp folder must clear itself after the application runs, even though I tried opening it while the application was still running | 02:52 |
| ubuntu | does anyone know what this error means when trying to start the live installer 'import site' failed; use -v for traceback | 02:52 |

| rww | pedrosanta: If you read those instructions, you'll note a lack of -d in the update-manager command it gives. | 02:52 |

| rww | Sickler: yes | 02:52 |

| markboston | dakota if you see him online ask him he will help you out | 02:53 |
| Teh_Chaos | pksadiq: I don't know either, but that's what windows firewall said it was blocking. | 02:53 |
| Dr_Willis | Lint01: then theres some package you can install to get it... I got it here.. but no idea what package did it.. You could of extracted stuff vy the command line 100 times by the time this chatting has been going on. :) | 02:53 |
| zacstone | why do i get "no root file system is defined" error? | 02:53 |

| jmichaelx | is anyone else having issues with smplayer in maverick? for me, i am not able to advance forward very far in any video, without smplayer just stopping. | 02:53 |
| rww | pedrosanta: As I said, follow the instructions. There's not supposed to be a -d in it. -d means "Install the current development release". | 02:53 |
| markboston | pkadiq pyrun* | 02:54 |
| Lint01 | zacstone, because you haven't selected / mount point | 02:54 |

| dakota | noisewaterphd I need the source of the android-x86 port | 02:54 |
| Teh_Chaos | alright, I found the log file (had to manually browse to it), it's quite long and convoluted, I don't know what to get out of it | 02:54 |
| step21 | meee: sudo <command> | 02:54 |
| Teh_Chaos | i don't think it'll be helpful | 02:54 |
| mordinruth | sudo | 02:54 |
| Sickler | oh nvm | 02:54 |
| dangerous666 | anybody knows why doesn't the new 10.10 kernel create /dev/mixer ? | 02:54 |
| Dr_Willis | rypervenche: the pictures of the themnes are always wrong it seems with the buttons. One of the many issues with the whole move the buttons to the left disaster. :) | 02:54 |
| dakota | noisewaterphd but I can't get repo to work even after installing it. | 02:54 |
| zacstone | Lint01 you have to mount it? | 02:55 |
| Teh_Chaos | there's a lot of talk about torrents though, do I need bittorent to install ubuntu using wubi? | 02:55 |
| pedrosanta | rww: without "-d" still appeared the RC too. soz. changed from Portugal mirror to main one and on that the final release appears. it haven't made sync yet I guess. | 02:55 |
| meee | <step21> how do i do that | 02:55 |
| rww | Teh_Chaos: no, wubi uses regular HTTP to download | 02:55 |
| markboston | Teh_Chaos no you don't need bittorrent to install wubi | 02:55 |
| mordinruth | go to term and type sudo bommand | 02:55 |
| rww | pedrosanta: ah, okay. So it's working now? | 02:55 |
| pedrosanta | rww: thx anyways :) | 02:55 |
| rypervenche | New question, my alt+ print screen isn't working. Normal screenshotting works fine, but not the current window one. | 02:55 |
| pksadiq | Teh_Chaos: in Windows I beleive uTorrent is best, but it's not good to install this in ubuntu through wine, use any native app | 02:56 |
| step21 | meee: open a terminal (under accessories) then type. | 02:56 |
| pedrosanta | rww: yes but i gonna see if i can manage to get a nearer mirror with the final release. | 02:56 |
| Lint01 | Teh_Chaos, wubi has torrent client built in | 02:56 |

| Rigorm0rtis | ChogyDan, Intel | 02:56 |
| pksadiq | Sorry, hahaha mistaken | 02:56 |
| Teh_Chaos | alright then, I don't know what's up with it. When I went to the temp folder there were a lot of files that were py<bunch of numbers>.exe, so I think that's why letting the program through firewall wouldn't work, because it makes a new exe in the temp folder to run every time.

| Jef91 | Hey all this page - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Security/Privileges#Access%20internal%20storage%20devices - says I should be looking at the /var/lib/polkit-1/localauthority/10-vendor.d/com.ubuntu.desktop.pkla file for letting anyone mount internal drives, however this file does not exist on my 10.04 system - any why or what it should look like? | 04:23 |
| tiox | Here's the source repo: "http://fly.thruhere.net/~lion/6dof/main/" | 04:24 |
| NateW | zacstone, if you are using manual partitioning, choose the partition you are formatting, and under mountpoint type in / | 04:24 |
| dylan_ | Help I started ubuntu 10.10 and the display won't work. It says it can't find X server. | 04:24 |

| tiox | Also Rug, all the unlocakbles are accessible. | 04:25 |

| Rug | nice | 04:25 |
| zacstone | but the installer still couldn't see my other hard drive.. | 04:25 |
| tiox | And thanks to some pleading when I was playing it hardcore on 'Dos, I had the developer enable some of the cheats. | 04:25 |

| zacstone | hiticahi | 04:27 |
| NateW | hmm.. that im not sure, but you have to set your "root" partition mount point to / | 04:27 |
| mkquist | zacstone: do you mean you have a / partition and a swap and a separate /home ? | 04:27 |
| dylan_ | dylan_ Cannot open X server @ error/display.c/DisplayImageCommand/424 | 04:27 |
| mkquist | zacstone: three partitions right? | 04:27 |
| zacstone | I don't know.. do i have to name it to "/" or what? | 04:27 |
| zacstone | well i have windows 7 on it too | 04:27 |
| zacstone | i was trying to get dual boot | 04:28 |
| mkquist | zacstone: yes, one has to be named / one needs to be swap | 04:28 |
| dylan_ | Cannot open X server @ error/display.c/DisplayImageCommand/424 | 04:28 |
| zacstone | so root is not the name? | 04:28 |
| zacstone | just "/" | 04:28 |
| NateW | yup | 04:28 |
| mkquist | zacstone: not the name '/' is root | 04:28 |
| zacstone | okay okay so i am gonna rename it to '/' | 04:28 |
| mkquist | zacstone: yes | 04:28 |

| glithcd | how can i install login screen packages in 10.04 that i download from gnome-look.org if they come in tar.gz files | 04:28 |
| mkquist | zacstone: what are you using to partition? gparted? | 04:29 |
| Lint01 | zacstone, there is a list of /, /home, /usr etc | 04:29 |
| dylan_ | dylan_ Cannot open X server @ error/display.c/DisplayImageCommand/424 | 04:29 |
| NateW | glithcd: my guess is they are not compatible with the newer gdm | 04:29 |
| glebihan | glithcd: login screen packages in gnome-art are for gdm 1, and 10.04 uses gdm 2, so you won't be able to use them | 04:29 |
| NateW | glithcd: whats the url? | 04:29 |
| glithcd | but they say that they are for gnome 2.x | 04:29 |
| Lint01 | lol for linux to be secure you need have a hell lot of partitions set to nosuid noexec | 04:29 |
| NateW | which used gdm 1 still | 04:29 |
| gimpy4671 | In Ubuntu 10.10 and 10.04 I cannot select either IDE drive to install to with Desktop but I can with Server. Desktop does not even show them in the installer and only shows sdc and above (should be hdX but my mobo makes even IDE sdX). | 04:29 |

| glebihan | glithcd: yep gnome 2, not gdm 2 | 04:30 |
| lsoderman | Help with 10.10 install - USB and CD both boot fine, but don't see HDs. When I try to install, it says insufficient space, because it can't write to CD or USB (not enough space). If I boot to HD, previous Debian install boots fine. Any ideas? | 04:30 |

| dylan_ | dylan_ Cannot open X server @ error/display.c/DisplayImageCommand/424 | 04:30 |

| glithcd | is there any way i can change the look nd feel of the login screen? besides the background? | 04:31 |
| glebihan | glithcd: as I said, no | 04:31 |
| glithcd | but i cant changed the over all look of it? | 04:31 |

| oracle | iow, must i reboot to have a secure system? | 04:49 |
| Woodyjlw | NateW, oh ok...thanks | 04:49 |
| Cainmadness | Hey, just updated 10.04, and now it won't boot. Says it gives up waiting for root device. Help? | 04:50 |
| graft | err, i mean, anyone else having problems with their compiz wallpaper plugin after installing maverick? | 04:50 |
| Datz | well, the netbook interface didn't install.. I forget what it is called now. Should I just try to reinstall it? | 04:50 |
| Lint01 | graft, you can solve compiz problems by removing it | 04:50 |
| NateW | graft: never have gotten it to work period | 04:50 |
| blakkheim | jonathon_: there is no way | 04:50 |
| mobius | so, where is this update-motd.d stuff called from when you log in? | 04:50 |
| graft | Lint01: why would i do that? | 04:50 |
| rww | oracle: If you're using the regular graphical system, it'll tell you if you need to restart. | 04:50 |
| Lint01 | graft, ubuntu is much more enjiyable without it | 04:50 |

| gilaniali | blakkheim: Lint01: so how do I give my user account access to create files in '/' or '/opt' | 04:51 |
| gollum211 | Datz: What do you see now on your netbook? | 04:51 |
| NateW | Lint01: except you cant SUPER + E to see all of your workspaces | 04:51 |
| mobius | ah.. there is actually a man page for update-motd. nm. :) | 04:51 |
| Lint01 | NateW, i don't use workspaces | 04:51 |
| blakkheim | gilaniali: you can sudo chown youruser /the/directory | 04:51 |
| jonathon_ | Any luck with other browsers? Epiphany? Opera? | 04:51 |
| Datz | gollum211: ok, guess unity didn't install. just looks like plain 10.10 gnome now | 04:51 |
| Lint01 | gilaniali, chown -R username /opt/path | 04:51 |
| admin0 | somethig like MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlConnection missing | 04:52 |
| blakkheim | jonathon_: no, blame adobe for making bad proprietary software that sucks on linux | 04:52 |
| gollum211 | Datz: type: dpkg --list unity* | 04:52 |
| seismicmike | I have some problems with the Me Menu. I'm just now trying to use it for the first time. I have Ubuntu 10.04 that I just upgraded via APT to 10.10. I have set up AIM and Google Talk IM accounts as well as Twitter accounts. However, I do not have a broadcast field. It's just not there. Plus I don't know how to get to my buddy lists for my IM accounts. Also, when I tried to set up facebook, it authorized facebook, but th | 04:52 |
| seismicmike | ere was no "Apply" button so it wouldn't finalize creating the account. Anyone else have similar issues? | 04:52 |
| NateW | jonathon_: are you running 32 or 64bit? | 04:52 |
| Datz | gollum211: ok, well I guess it is installed, but is not loaded or something | 04:52 |
| gilaniali | Lint01: does the -R mean recursively add to all subfolders? | 04:52 |
| graft | gilaniali: don't give your user the ability to create files in /, that's a terrible security practice | 04:52 |
| Datz | gollum211: I'll check | 04:52 |
| blakkheim | gilaniali: yes | 04:52 |
| Lint01 | gilaniali, yes | 04:52 |
| jonathon_ | 64-bit 10.04 | 04:52 |
| graft | gilaniali: don't do it! | 04:52 |
| NateW | are you using the 10.1 64bit version? | 04:52 |
| glebihan | admin0: when do you get this message ? cause this doesn't mention mono... | 04:52 |
| gollum211 | Datz: you want to see Unity, right? | 04:52 |
| graft | jeez, you guys, learn some basic hygeine | 04:52 |
| Cainmadness | I just updated and it now loads saying gave up waiting on root device. Anyone know what to do? | 04:53 |
| Lint01 | graft, eh? | 04:53 |
| blakkheim | graft: learn some basic..reading? he's doing it to a subdirectory of /opt | 04:53 |
| gilaniali | and what does ch at the start stand for? | 04:53 |
| infid | anyone know how to get the 'html validator' firefox plugin workin in 32-bit ubuntu? works in 64bit by default but 32bit is telling me "FATAL ERROR : The dynamic C library contained in the extension file could not be found." | 04:53 |
| graft | blakkheim: read what he said, he also said / | 04:53 |
| NateW | jonathon_: are you running the 64bit version from adobelabs and not from the repos? | 04:53 |
| Datz | gollum211: yes | 04:53 |
| AxionStile | If I'm not back soon.. dont call your local authorities. I'll be fine | 04:53 |
| seismicmike | also... i just removed it to the panel to see if removing it and re-adding it would do any good, but now I can't find it in the list of things to add to the panel :( | 04:53 |
| frooh | anyone know why gdm might be broken but startx works fine? | 04:53 |
| AxionStile | Lint, Nate - thanks for the assistance! | 04:54 |
| NateW | no probs | 04:54 |
| Lint01 | why there's no Public folder in Ubuntu? | 04:54 |
| pibarnas | frooh: gdm? | 04:54 |
| glebihan | frooh: by broken, what do you mean ? what happens ? what error messages ? | 04:54 |
| pibarnas | frooh: maybe a bad .desktop? | 04:54 |
| frooh | sorry, should be more specific | 04:54 |
| frooh | the screen stays completely black | 04:54 |
| NateW | Lint01: ive got a ~/Public folder | 04:54 |
| frooh | the logs don't seem to give any error messages that I can tell | 04:54 |
| tiox | Hey ruggy, manage to get PX working? | 04:55 |
| frooh | I looked in /var/log/gdm/:0.log and /var/log/X11/xorg.0.log | 04:55 |
| Maka | Greetings :) I have a question about compiz and ATI video drivers... I previously had 10.04 with compiz fusion working great on this laptop which has an ATI video. I upgraded to 10.10, but now I cant get compiz fusion to work. I do have the restricted ATI driver installed. When I go to System->Preferences->Appearance->Visual Effects tab to change to "Extra" graphics... it returns an error "Desktop Effects could not be enabled". Please hel | 04:55 |
| Maka | p? How do I get my compiz fusion working again? | 04:55 |
| gollum211 | Datz: Try typing: sudo apt-get install unity | 04:55 |
| Rug | blakkheim: I am used to Fluxbox, how easy is it to configure awesome ? | 04:55 |
| Lint01 | NateW, in $HOME? then it's not public | 04:55 |
| Datz | gollum211: when I run "unity" I get some failures | 04:55 |
| frooh | pibarnas: I don't think I have a .desktop, lemme check | 04:55 |
| glebihan | frooh: ok, when you start X, what command do you use ? | 04:55 |
| gollum211 | About 2D -v- 3D? | 04:55 |
| Datz | gollum211: says installed, and at newest | 04:55 |
| frooh | glebihan: startx | 04:55 |
| Datz | gollum211: this is in a VM, and not a netbook btw. I don't know if it matters | 04:56 |
| glebihan | frooh: just startx ? | 04:56 |
| frooh | glebihan: or really sudo startx since I can't do that as my regular user | 04:56 |
| mobius | so, why would one pam_motd call the update-motd.d scripts and not the other? pam.conf is identical... | 04:56 |
| frooh | just "sudo startx" | 04:56 |
| pibarnas | frooh: check /usr/share/xsessions/ :) | 04:56 |
| blakkheim | Rug: i thought you were talking about tiling WMs only. i like openbox for floating a WM. awesome is configured with one lua file | 04:56 |
| jonathon_ | NateW: had to check, flashplugin-nonfree is the package I have installed | 04:56 |
| glebihan | frooh: and what does that start inside the X session ? | 04:56 |
| frooh | pibarnas: what am I looking for? | 04:56 |
| frooh | glebihan: gnome | 04:56 |
| gollum211 | Datz: I think it does, because your VM's graphics driver may have issues with 3D. See this bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-translations/+bug/614088 | 04:56 |
| Datz | gollum211: ok thanks. I'll have a look | 04:57 |
| Rug | blakkheim: I want to move to a tiling WM, but I am comming from Flux. | 04:57 |
| glebihan | frooh: btw you should be able to run startx with your normal user... | 04:57 |
| mobius | /lib/security/pam_motd.so is identical on both machines | 04:57 |
| frooh | glebihan: it said permission denied when I did that | 04:57 |
| frooh | I'd try again, but I'd lose connection and that's kindav a hassle | 04:57 |
| Lint01 | gollum211, it was fixed | 04:57 |
| frooh | well | 04:57 |
| frooh | I'm logged in over screen, lemme pull this up on my desktop | 04:58 |
| Datz | gollum211: yes, that looks to be the problem as far as I can tell. thanks. | 04:58 |
| Lint01 | gollum211, it says if no 3d is available | 04:58 |
| glebihan | frooh: no you can open a different display | 04:58 |
| frooh | oh, good call | 04:58 |
| frooh | startx :1 ? | 04:58 |
| glebihan | frooh: use "-- :1" at the end of the command | 04:58 |
| frooh | k | 04:58 |
| Datz | I don't think 3D is available by default | 04:58 |
| NateW | jonathon_: if you want, adobe has a beta 64bit plugin available. for me its WAY faster and more responsive. for that you have to remove the package, then download : http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/flashplayer_square_p2_64bit_linux_092710.tar.gz | 04:58 |
| NateW | after that, extract and copy to /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ | 04:58 |
| NateW | jonathon_: make sure to remove the flash package from the repos if you do so | 04:59 |
| frooh | glebihan: ok this is weird, it gives an error about locking ~/.Xauthority | 04:59 |
| frooh | but I don't have that, should I touch it? | 04:59 |
| glebihan | frooh: yes try that | 04:59 |
| Datz | gollum211: anyway, unity is just some add on to gnome? | 04:59 |
| frooh | wait no, I'm just dumb, it's there | 05:00 |
| jonathon_ | NateW: Thanks. I'll give it a shot, the insight helps, I didn't want to make it worse! | 05:00 |
| * frooh chowns it | 05:00 | |
| RP64 | hi guys | 05:00 |
| RP64 | i was wondering | 05:00 |
| lsoderman | Help with 10.10 install - USB and CD both boot fine, but don't see HDs. When I try to install, it says insufficient space, because it can't write to CD or USB (not enough space). If I boot to HD, previous Debian install boots fine. Any ideas? | 05:00 |
| glebihan | frooh: .Xauthority should have permissions 600 and be owned by your user | 05:00 |
| RP64 | if I used apt-get to install kubuntu on my ubuntu 10.04, does that mean its the same as if I had installed Kubuntu from the disk? Or if I had used the synaptic to get Kubuntu? | 05:00 |
| RP64 | it's the same right? | 05:00 |
| frooh | glebihan: I think somehow root got it when I started this session | 05:01 |
| frooh | brb | 05:01 |
| RRU_Sciguy | hey, gnome3 has been pushed back to 2011, so why is there gnome3-session in the synaptic? | 05:01 |
| glebihan | frooh: ok | 05:01 |
| mobius | is there a way to restart pam? | 05:01 |
| mobius | it doesn't seem to be calling pam_motd.so | 05:01 |
| NateW | RRU_Sciguy: probably a testing build | 05:01 |
| RP64 | if I used apt-get to install kubuntu on my ubuntu 10.04, does that mean its the same as if I had installed Kubuntu from the disk? Or if I had used the synaptic to get Kubuntu? It's the same right? | 05:02 |
| RRU_Sciguy | NateW, good point | 05:02 |
| tonyyarusso | RP64: yes | 05:02 |
| RRU_Sciguy | I did what? | 05:02 |
| NateW | RRU_Sciguy: just like there is gnome-shell in the repos as well | 05:02 |
| RP64 | tonyyarusso: are u sure? | 05:02 |

| === vafggrafrag is now known as dmartinez | ||
| RP64 | NateW: so its the same? | 05:02 |
| glebihan | RP64: not exactly the same applications selection as if you had installed Kubuntu to start with | 05:02 |
| jonathon_ | RP64: It's the same as far as I know, I think Synaptic runs apt/dpkg in the background, it's just a frontend | 05:02 |
| Datz | humm, ubottu doesn't even know anything about unity :p | 05:02 |
| RP64 | glebihan: why not? how do I fix that | 05:03 |
| NateW | RP64: what? | 05:03 |
| glebihan | RP64: but apt-get and synaptic do the same | 05:03 |
| RP64 | glebihan: well I typed sudo aptitude install | 05:03 |
| RP64 | glebihan: is that the same as apt-get | 05:03 |
| glebihan | RP64: there's no "fix" as this is not a bug... if you have all the applications you need, you're good | 05:03 |
| NateW | Maka: try removing the proprietary drivers, and reinstall them | 05:03 |
| Ashish500 | Does ubuntu have a good DVD burning sotware packag? | 05:03 |
| RP64 | glebihan: im saying is sudo aptitude install the same as apt-get | 05:04 |
| RP64 | ? | 05:04 |
| glebihan | RP64: yes aptitude and apt-get are the sma | 05:04 |
| Maka | NateW: ok i'll try that..thank you | 05:04 |
| glebihan | same | 05:04 |
| RP64 | glebihan: why have 2 names for it ?? | 05:04 |
| RRU_Sciguy | Datz, ubotto needs an upgrsde | 05:04 |
| ajsie | is ubuntu still based on debian? | 05:04 |
| RP64 | ajsie: yes | 05:04 |
| glebihan | ajsie: yes | 05:04 |
| NateW | Maka: also, there's a chance that the new proprietary drivers may no longer support your card | 05:04 |
| ajsie | okay | 05:04 |
| JoeMaverickSett | Ashish500: Brasero would do just fine. | 05:04 |
| frooh | glebihan: no luck | 05:04 |
| ajsie | so it just add new packages? something else it modifies from debian? | 05:04 |
| Maka | NateW: that would make me very sad | 05:04 |
| frooh | glebihan: I chowned it, logged out, and it still says my user isn't allowed to startX | 05:05 |
| Maka | NateW: anyway.... i'll try removing and reinstalling | 05:05 |
| RP64 | glebihan: why does it have 2 names if its the same command | 05:05 |
| === WindPower_ is now known as WindPower | ||
| tonyyarusso | ajsie: there are bunches of modifications. I'm sure nobody in this channel could list them all. | 05:05 |
| blakkheim | aptitude and apt-get are not exactly the same | 05:05 |
| Ashish500 | thanks i need to insatll it | 05:05 |
| ajsie | okay | 05:05 |
| Maka | NateW: thank you for responding :) | 05:05 |
| glebihan | RP64: it's not the same command... but it will work almost the same way | 05:05 |
| blakkheim | aptitude handles dependencies better and keeps things cleaner | 05:05 |
| ajsie | blakkheim: debian doesn't have aptitude? | 05:05 |
| blakkheim | ajsie: it does | 05:05 |
| ajsie | okay | 05:05 |
| glebihan | frooh: still the same error with .Xauthority ? | 05:05 |
| Lint01 | ajsie, no, just steals from debian and replaces wallpapers | 05:06 |
| JoeMaverickSett | Ashish500: it's installed default on ubuntu. no? | 05:06 |
| RCola | aptitude search is the best. | 05:06 |
| mobius | ah hah! /etc/pam.d/sshd seems to be clobbered on one of my machines. | 05:06 |
| ajsie | Lint01: :) | 05:06 |
| NateW | RP64: think of it as two programs that do the same things | 05:06 |
| RP64 | glebihan: so is the one I used gonna work less better than if I typed apt-get to get Kubuntu? | 05:06 |
| jonathon_ | Maka: If the new drivers don't support your card you may be able to just change the control file. I have to use the Ubuntu restricted drivers with the AMD control file to avoid kernel panics or an ugly watermark. | 05:06 |
| glebihan | RP64: no just the same | 05:06 |
| RP64 | NateW: so in the end I am still getting the real full Kubuntu by having input this command right | 05:06 |
| Ashish500 | oh ! i found it.. | 05:06 |
| NateW | yeah | 05:06 |
| Maka | jonathon_: ok thank you | 05:06 |
| RP64 | sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop | 05:07 |
| RP64 | was the command | 05:07 |
| NateW | yeah.. same thing | 05:07 |
| frooh | glebihan: well, it also says user not authorized to run the X server | 05:07 |
| frooh | glebihan: is there a group I should be in to do that? | 05:07 |
| deryl | ok now that really and truly sucked. the alternate installer does NOT support wifi, and will not allow me to initialize any other card than the built in wired card in this laptop | 05:07 |
| deryl | boooo | 05:07 |
| glebihan | frooh: I wouldn't think so, lemme check | 05:07 |
| RP64 | wait | 05:07 |
| RP64 | GUYS WAIT! | 05:07 |
| RP64 | its asking me in the terminal: | 05:07 |
| RP64 | configuring KDM, default display manager : gdm , kdm | 05:08 |
| RP64 | which one should I pick ?? | 05:08 |
| Ashish500 | How much time it takes to download ubuntu iso using torrents | 05:08 |
| rww | RP64: do you want Kubuntu or Ubuntu's login manager? | 05:08 |
| NateW | i would use gdm because im a gnome guy, but its up to you really | 05:08 |
| rww | Ashish500: depends on your connection | 05:08 |
| oraci | a little help please ... I have a problem when configuring autologin in ubuntu alternate 10.04.1 ... install in console mode ... and after reviewing a manual install mingetty ... and the next step is to edit the tty1 file that would have to be in / etc / event.d / ... but there is obviously not the folder the file event.dy tty1 | 05:08 |
| jonathon_ | NateW: Should I purge the flash package or just remove? | 05:08 |
| RP64 | rww: uh which one is better? | 05:08 |
| deryl | ashish500 ~ its taking me about 2 hours over a 560kB/s link | 05:08 |
| rww | RP64: whichever one you prefer. They both do the same thing. | 05:08 |
| NateW | jonathon_: i just remove it | 05:08 |
| RP64 | NateW: if I pick kdm can I switch the login screen back to gdm if I dont like it ? | 05:08 |
| NateW | probably | 05:08 |
| RP64 | rww: if i dont like the kdm can i move it back to gdm | 05:08 |
| rww | RP64: yes | 05:08 |
| RP64 | NateW: awgh probably?! lol | 05:09 |
| deryl | ashish500 ~ thats for the desktop dvd iso | 05:09 |
| RP64 | rww: how | 05:09 |
| NateW | google? | 05:09 |
| NateW | =P | 05:09 |
| RP64 | -_ - lol | 05:09 |
| rww | RP64: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm, I think | 05:09 |
| deryl | ashish500 ~ the alternate installer 690MB cd image took me about oh 20 minutes | 05:09 |
| rww | !google | NateW | 05:09 |
| ubottu | NateW: 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. | 05:09 |
| bytesaber | where is the Alternate for 10.04 ? | 05:09 |
| NateW | rww: making a joke | 05:09 |
| deryl | bytesaber ~ off the alternate download page | 05:09 |
| glebihan | frooh: no that's weird, I just created a new user without any permissions, and was able to startx with that user... | 05:10 |
| Ashish500 | yes | 05:10 |
| RP64 | rww: lol | 05:10 |
| RP64 | NateW: lol | 05:10 |

| frooh | I can figure that out later | 05:10 |
| frooh | glebihan: any way you could help me with GDM? | 05:10 |
| RP64 | guys is Kubuntu good... is the upside of it that its similar to Windows and flashier? | 05:10 |
| deryl | http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download | 05:10 |
| deryl | oh sorry I'm doing kubuntu | 05:10 |
| bytesaber | rww, cool thanks | 05:10 |
| AxionStile | Nate that file grew legs sir.. it ran away | 05:11 |
| scampbell | are we hearing any talk/solutions for world of warcraft crashing on startup on 10.10? | 05:11 |
| NateW | RP64: i havent used kubuntu much, but its really a matter of you opinion if its better or not. | 05:11 |
| RP64 | NateW: so why do u not like kubuntu | 05:11 |
| oraci | any help? | 05:11 |
| nprasath002 | hi what is the best software to run windows in a virtual environment in ubuntu? | 05:11 |
| deryl | bytesaber ~ taking me a minute I'm still grabbing the desktop dvd image and its saturating my link | 05:11 |
| deryl | bytesaber ~ http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download | 05:12 |
| lucent | nprasath002: 'kvm' is the default with Ubuntu | 05:12 |
| NateW | RP64: i personally dont like the look and layout of kubuntu, also i find that it doesnt perform as well and the apps arent as nice. but kde people will say the same thing about gnome | 05:12 |
| glebihan | frooh: well as you don't get any error message, it's always hard to guess, but you can try reinstalling ubuntu-desktop | 05:12 |
| RP64 | NateW: uh oh that sounds bad lol | 05:12 |
| bytesaber | deryl, ahh torrent. way better. thank you | 05:12 |
| frooh | hm | 05:12 |
| NateW | RP64: its about a trillion times better than windows though | 05:12 |
| deryl | yep | 05:12 |
| RRU_Sciguy | rprp46: again its all personal preference | 05:12 |
| RP64 | NateW: will installing this KDE while I also have GNOME installed make my computer slow? | 05:13 |
| Ashish500 | sunvirtualbox | 05:13 |
| deryl | bytesaber ~ thats what I'm doing. 70 seeds right now. getting 566kB/s | 05:13 |
| NateW | RP64: No | 05:13 |
| frooh | wtf | 05:13 |
| RP64 | RRU_Sciguy: whats ur prefference and why? | 05:13 |
| frooh | glebihan: somehow my main user is no longer in sudoers | 05:13 |
| deryl | well 70 active out of 240 | 05:13 |
| frooh | so now I can't become root | 05:13 |
| glebihan | RP64: no it'll just use some disk space | 05:13 |
| AxionStile | Okay | 05:13 |
| AxionStile | brb | 05:13 |
| glebihan | frooh: wow... that's odd... | 05:14 |
| frooh | hmmm | 05:14 |
| frooh | I wonder if I should install from scratch... | 05:14 |
| AxionStile | I just opened the boot.ini in ubuntu.... :D ! | 05:14 |
| frooh | I have a home partition | 05:14 |
| RRU_Sciguy | rp64: So far Gnome, a little cleaner, nice interface. and if you install the other desktop packages through synaptic, then you can choose which one to use at login | 05:15 |
| AxionStile | see, I'm having driver problems in windows xp.. it doesnt understand that I have a modem.. so I cant connect and ask dumb questions unless im on ubuntu | 05:15 |
| glebihan | frooh: that may be the best solution, cause you seem to have several weird problems there | 05:15 |
| lucent | frooh: was sudoers the only thing that was messed up? That'd be my concern | 05:15 |
| nanite | Hi, I'm new to IRC chatting. How can I query a server to list all of the available IRC channels for me? | 05:15 |
| frooh | lucent: lots of things are wrong | 05:15 |
| AxionStile | nanite try ./list minus the period | 05:15 |
| frooh | lucent: gdm seems to be broken for some reason | 05:15 |
| lucent | nanite: if you query the channels, it gives you all the channels and then kicks you offline for requesting too much info, be warned | 05:15 |
| nanite | Thank you | 05:15 |
| AxionStile | I believe that's it | 05:15 |
| Guest51141 | hi i got something wierd. the install cd could use my wireless card but the full install cant seem to | 05:15 |
| AxionStile | You're very welcome | 05:16 |
| frooh | sudoers seems to have just happened | 05:16 |
| === Guest51141 is now known as Yowshi | ||
| RRU_Sciguy | nanite, if you are using xchat, Network>channels | 05:16 |
| deryl | natew ~ hehe yeah I'm definitely firmly in the KDE camp, and I say the exact same thing about gnome. the 2 camps have been sniping at each other for years | 05:16 |
| === Yowshi is now known as Guest84760 | ||
| lucent | frooh: well you can fix simple specific issues if you know what you did... trying to magically put the scrambled egg back in its shell is not so easy | 05:16 |

| deryl | natew ~ hehe 6 of 1, 1/2 dozen of the other | 05:16 |
| nanite | No, I'm using Terminal and irssi | 05:16 |
| frooh | lucent: I just upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10 :-( | 05:16 |
| nanite | No GUI client. | 05:17 |
| frooh | afaik I didn't do anything else | 05:17 |
| NateW | deryl: haha, which is fine with me though | 05:17 |
| zaya | frooh: is it a clean iso? | 05:17 |
| lucent | frooh: i.e. boot root shell "single" mode on kernel command line would get you to root shell and then edit /etc/sudoers or your group info to add 'admin' group to the user, but other things may still be broken | 05:17 |
| frooh | zaya: er, I used update-managaer | 05:17 |
| deryl | natew ~ same with me. as long as we all use waht we like, i really don't care if they fight or not | 05:17 |
| RRU_Sciguy | nanite, ok so you cant click the buttons XD | 05:17 |
| nanite | Lol. | 05:17 |
| Guest84760 | is anyone avuilable to help me wioth my wireless card issue? | 05:17 |
| lucent | frooh: fresh reinstall would be the most assuring that you have a working OS | 05:17 |
| frooh | right | 05:17 |
| nanite | I'm not using a GUI client | 05:17 |
| frooh | grr | 05:17 |
| oraci | a little help please ... I have a problem when configuring autologin in ubuntu alternate 10.04.1 ... install in console mode ... and after reviewing a manual install mingetty ... and the next step is to edit the tty1 file that would have to be in /etc/event.d/ ... but not found folder /etc/event.d/ and obviously noy found file tty1 | 05:17 |
| NateW | deryl: exactly, its all just what you like and as long as everyones needs are met, thats all that matters | 05:17 |
| nanite | Purely Ubuntu terminal | 05:17 |
| JoeMaverickSett | nanite: it wouldn't be a good idea to query how many channles are on freenode. it is rather wise to find channels from the web. | 05:17 |
| zaya | frooh: that usually does it | 05:18 |
| frooh | this is just a hassle because this computer doesn't have a CD driver | 05:18 |
| AxionStile | Okay you guys I'm very new and very ignorant. I'm running Ubuntu 10 and Windows XP. Xp doesn't have the drivers (for basically anything including modem) so I must be on Ubuntu. Windows is the 1st to auto boot upon starting the pc. I'd like to switch it to where Ubuntu auto boots instead. Nate clearly informed me to edit the boot.ini file. I have that opened right now in ubuntu but don't understand what to edit exactly. I s | 05:18 |
| AxionStile | ee the timeout in seconds, etc. Just need a little direction if possible. | 05:18 |
| frooh | drive* | 05:18 |
| nanite | JoeMaverickSett: OK. So, simply check out the freenode.org website for the channel list? | 05:18 |

| zaya | frooh: USB install? | 05:18 |
| frooh | zaya: right | 05:18 |
| deryl | yeah I have to format my upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10 as well. getting SERIOUS i/o issues and even just installing a 40KB package snapped my load avg to 7.10+ for over 5 minutes | 05:18 |
| JoeMaverickSett | nanite: you could like do that + find irc channels on freenode on google. | 05:18 |
| Guest84760 | hi i got something wierd. the install cd could use my wireless card but the full install cant seem to can anyone help me get myu wireless card running? | 05:19 |

| Breetai | Hey, just got on Maveric and installed vmware player. Every time I start VMware player it wants to recompile the kernel drivers? Anyone else having this problem? Anyone know of a sloution? | 05:19 |
| NateW | AxionStile: one sec, i'll boot up my vm of xp here | 05:19 |
| deryl | I'm thinking it was the upgrade, because ii have had exactly zero issues like that with 10.04. so going to format and reinstall | 05:19 |
| AxionStile | NateW : Thank you very much | 05:19 |
| nanite | JoeMaverickSett: Alright. Also, exactly how safe is IRC chatting? | 05:19 |
| deryl | besides the fact I have an rsync ANd an rdiff-backup of my 10.04 install if i MUST go back to it | 05:19 |
| nanite | JoeMaverickSett: At least when it comes to security. | 05:19 |
| sunny1 | For some reason upgrading to 10.10 changing my double click track pad settings...There's no option under "Mouse", help please? | 05:19 |
| RRU_Sciguy | nanite, I believe very | 05:20 |
| JoeMaverickSett | nanite: i wouldn't know. but it's freenode + it's the ubuntu channels, so i do trust them. | 05:20 |
| gnushitweasel | Nanite, you can use irc with ssl | 05:20 |
| nanite | Oh, really? | 05:20 |
| nanite | Yes, that would be good. | 05:20 |
| Guest84760 | hi i got something wierd. the install cd could use my wireless card but the full install cant seem to can anyone help me get myu wireless card running? | 05:20 |
| NateW | AxionStile: second line should be timeout=# .. right? | 05:20 |
| lsoderman | Help with 10.10 install - USB and CD both boot fine, but don't see HDs. When I try to install, it says insufficient space, because it can't write to CD or USB (not enough space). If I boot to HD, previous Debian install boots fine. Any ideas? | 05:20 |
| gnushitweasel | Yeah, well, actually, i'm not sure if all channels support it | 05:20 |
| nanite | I am on an institution network, and I'd rather shield my communications from the server | 05:20 |
| lucent | nanite: IRC is untrusted | 05:20 |
| deryl | nanite as lonjg as you stick to the official channels, there are enough realtime chatteers to debunk MOST false info so sticking with them is the right choice | 05:21 |
| AxionStile | correct sir, right under bootloader | 05:21 |
| AxionStile | second line | 05:21 |
| gnushitweasel | I'm not really familiar with either protocol tbh | 05:21 |
| nanite | deryl: I see. | 05:21 |
| NateW | AxionStile: change that to the number of seconds you want the selection to appear | 05:21 |
| nanite | How would I connect with SSL? | 05:21 |
| frooh | oh shoot | 05:21 |
| AxionStile | NateW: done | 05:21 |
| nanite | simply type SSL when I call up the server? | 05:21 |
| frooh | lucent: I'm dumb, I was trying to sudo on the machine that irssi is running on | 05:21 |
| NateW | AxionStile: and 4th line should be [operating systems] | 05:22 |
| zaya | guest84760: did you try System > Admin > Hardware Drivers? | 05:22 |
| JoeMaverickSett | nanite: http://www.irssi.org might want to read up some tips&tricks. | 05:22 |
| gnushitweasel | It depends on your client, but from what it sounds like, it's not going to help you | 05:22 |
| nanite | lucent: LOL | 05:22 |
| AxionStile | Yes sir NateW | 05:22 |
| deryl | guest84760 ~ hehe. the alternative text installer does NOT see my wifi. but the full desktop version does (of both ubuntu and kubuntu). my issue is usually that the ati card in this laptop locks kubuntu cold, but not ubuntu | 05:22 |
| rww | nanite: tell your client to use SSL and connect on port 7000 | 05:22 |
| nanite | JoeMaverickSett: Thank you. | 05:22 |
| geist | hrm. this particular box did not like the 10.10 update | 05:22 |
| deryl | i just don't want gnome on here if i can help it :) | 05:22 |

| frooh | glebihan: I don't *want* to, I just don't see a simpler option at this point | 05:25 |
| * frooh blames ATI | 05:25 | |

| TheoryDesigns | coz_ it is so great im using it for a vps to host free shells and host websites :) | 05:25 |

| AxionStile | How did windows not fail you? | 05:27 |
| TheoryDesigns | coz_: ok just thought you had some thing to do with it what ubuntu versions you use? | 05:27 |
| gnushitweasel | As far as laptops go, you don't have too much choice, i've found battery life to suffer a lot under linux | 05:28 |

| AxionStile | i say both! | 05:28 |
| Ken8521 | zacstone: what exactly do you think ubuntu "doesn't do for you"? | 05:28 |
| geist | hrm, is there a verbose boot script logging option? | 05:28 |
| deryl | uhh ubuntu DOES do all the work you want it to. installs, splits NTFS drives for install space, autopartitions or allows you to manually do it, installs a base set, sets up your system according to what you tell it you need for additionals ettings for devices IF you so desire or need to | 05:28 |
| NateW | AxionStile: because the ubuntu record is showing up as C:\wubildr.mbr instead of the format that the xp record is in, i'd be really cautious of setting default to it. here it is to try: http://www.pasteall.org/16182/text <--- but be careful, if it doesnt work, you may then have to use a livecd to change it back, but i dont think there should be any serious issues | 05:28 |
| coz_ | TheoryDesigns, I have used most of them... I always go back to main ubuntu ... are you having any issues on that system? | 05:28 |
| lucent | geist: there's a loglevel setting, not sure that's what you'd want | 05:29 |

I have a problem when configuring autologin in ubuntu alternate 10.04.1 ... install in console mode ... and after reviewing a manual install mingetty ... and the next step is to edit the tty1 file that would have to be in /etc/event.d/ ... but not found folder /etc/event.d/ and obviously noy found file tty1 | 05:30 |
| deryl | and why use the windows loader instead of grub when grub has zero issues booting windows as well (unless you isntall windows AFTER you installed ubuntu and then well, everything out there alrady tells you to install windows first due to how it installs itself | 05:30 |
| geist | xeon 5520, dual core | 05:30 |

| NateW | AxionStile: it should be fine, but id have a livecd to be on the safe side | 05:30 |
| geist | well, dual cpu | 05:30 |
| Ken8521 | zacstone: that's a design feature... and it's hardly a negative | 05:30 |

| lucent | geist: try booting 'nosmp' kernel option to disable the SMP related stuff, just as a test | 05:30 |

| AxionStile | What exactly is the live cd? Is that just the iso on cd that loads as a bootable cd to install ubuntu? Am even remotely correct on this stupid question? | 05:31 |

| graft | RRU_Sciguy: the whole only-1-pixel-border-with-which-to-resize thing | 05:31 |

| histo | AxionStile: yes. | 05:31 |
| NateW | AxionStile: exactly | 05:31 |
| AxionStile | 95% is good odds, though I have horrible luck with virtually everything | 05:31 |
| Ken8521 | why would you want to be root all the time anyway? | 05:31 |
| AxionStile | Alright! | 05:31 |
| geist | once whatever times out times out it seems to be totally fine. evyerthing is working | 05:31 |
| almoxarife | AxionStile: is your issue with a wubi install? | 05:31 |
| AxionStile | I'll take the iso off my pendrive.. and burn it to a cdrw :) | 05:31 |
| lucent | graft: work around it is easy, there's a Metacity setting to enable modifier+R_button to resize the window | 05:31 |
| RRU_Sciguy | Ken8521, It is a negative when you are used to being able to access ALL files and folders as the admin with WINDOWS | 05:31 |
| JoeMaverickSett | AxionStile: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD | 05:31 |
| geist | it's also pre-network. can't ping it while it's waiting | 05:31 |
| histo | AxionStile: you can boot from a pendrive also | 05:31 |
| deryl | ken8521 ~ because he doesn't understand how unix works and is trying to make it like windows to make it easier for himself (right or wrong) | 05:32 |
| NateW | AxionStile: what you could do, is put the ubuntu iso image onto your pendrive and as long as your bios is bootable to usb you can boot that way | 05:32 |
| graft | lucent: i shouldn't have to work around it, it's one of the most basic features of a window system | 05:32 |
| glebihan | zacstone: to get to a root login shell, type "sudo -i" | 05:32 |
| Ken8521 | RRU_Sciguy: it's not really difficult(though not advised) to run nautilus w/ root priv. | 05:32 |

| gnushitweasel | Has anyone here done a netboot before | 05:32 |
| gnushitweasel | ? | 05:32 |
| graft | lucent: i don't think so, i'm just stating my view | 05:32 |
| AxionStile | I just want ubuntu to load before windows auto loads :) | 05:33 |
| histo | AxionStile: but there is more involved than just putting an iso on cd. | 05:33 |
| RRU_Sciguy | Ken8521, I never do anything unless I know what it is Im doing | 05:33 |
| Ken8521 | gnushitweasel: not w/ ubuntu, but i assume theirs is like Debian, which i've done many times | 05:33 |
| histo | AxionStile: that page will describe it | 05:33 |
| zaya | RRU_Sciguy technically windows 7 runs more like "admin" rather "root" because the system itself locks you out of a lot | 05:33 |
| AxionStile | Histo: I know, sorta :( I didnt have much problems in windows all tha toften but you are correct I'm sure | 05:33 |
| AxionStile | I'll check it :) | 05:33 |

| zacstone | a sec | 05:33 |
| Ken8521 | RRU_Sciguy: well, thats good.. my point is, calling up a file browser w/ root priv, if thats what you want, is not that difficult... my real point, the issue is him, not sudo. | 05:33 |

| Cityscape | histo: it doesn't list any drivers for me. | 05:34 |
| gnushitweasel | That's what i really don't like about windows. I don't mind so much that it costs money, but i hate feeling like i have limited control over my own computer | 05:34 |
| histo | Cityscape: hrm.. | 05:34 |
| Ken8521 | gnushitweasel: well let it get a virus, then yuo can have no control | 05:35 |
| histo | Cityscape: let me check something | 05:35 |
| Ken8521 | lol | 05:35 |
| deryl | you know you CAN disable all the lockdown stuff in windows vista and 7 right? | 05:35 |

| lsoderman | I want to completely reinstall ubuntu from CD or USB, but I think the exosting Debian boot loader is interfering with the install. I can't see the hd once I get to "Install". Any ideas on how to overwrite the existing Debian? | 05:36 |
| mattcodes | would anyone recommend the alternative flash plugins instead? | 05:36 |
| gnushitweasel | Lint, i imagine you could with a LOT of configuration, but it'd probably be easier to install gentoo | 05:37 |
| x1337x | I guess that's more of a general linux question | 05:37 |
| mattcodes | monolight is open source so I feel a bit more comfortable with that | 05:37 |
| x1337x | Maybe #linux | 05:37 |
| lucent | mattcodes: I use Ubuntu with reckless abandon and connect to unprotected public wifi networks, maybe you need to ask a security expert and not an Ubuntu help channel | 05:37 |
| KB1JWQ | ##linux rather. | 05:37 |
| mattcodes | I dont think i need java (at least not for applet support) | 05:37 |
| histo | mattcodes: the one from adobe. Google flash squared | 05:37 |
| Ken8521 | lsoderman: thats very unlikely the debian install is doing that(or at least it never has for me)... | 05:37 |
| zipp0 | histo: i setup connection for Mac user to connect to the server via smb:// | 05:37 |
| Ken8521 | lsoderman: if you boot the live CD, can you view the drive in Gparted? | 05:37 |
| RRU_Sciguy | mattcodes, i have heard that the adobe flash player is less resource intensive than the open source ones | 05:37 |
| zipp0 | histo: but he cannot modify some directory | 05:37 |
| AxionStile | MMkay :) | 05:37 |
| lsoderman | Nope - but if I let it boot to the original Debian it's fine. | 05:37 |
| glebihan | x1337x: I guess putting a "&" at the end of the command should solve your problem | 05:38 |
| histo | zipp0: then you need to give him write access to the share in the smb.conf | 05:38 |
| zipp0 | histo: so how can i config permission for that user on the server? | 05:38 |
| zacstone | ... | 05:38 |
| deryl | rru_sciguy ~ depends. the 32bit on a 64bit machine is muchmore intensive than the 64bit beta of flash square for 64bit machines | 05:38 |

| zipp0 | histo: thanks :) | 05:38 |
| lsoderman | Ken8521 - Could it be because the original partition is the entire drive? | 05:39 |
| rww | gnushitweasel: Can you change your nick, please? This channel's designated as family-friendly. | 05:39 |
| graft | mattcodes: it's unlikely to be a serious security risk | 05:39 |
| mattcodes | graft, I meant im comfortable with moonlight installed as its is open source and miguel is a fing genius | 05:39 |
| Cityscape | histo: will that work for me? The version number for my card's driver at the Nvidia site is 71.86.14. My version number isn't listed on that page you linked to me. | 05:39 |
| gnushitweasel | Sure | 05:39 |
| Ken8521 | lsoderman: maybe burn and boot a parted magic CD?.. delete the debian partitions, then boot the ubuntu CD... problem is, if there's actually a problem w/ Ubuntu detecting your drive, your hosed at that point | 05:39 |
| luftikuss | man update-dlocatedb: "update-dlocatedb generates a plain text package contents listing dlocate from the files /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.list ." I do not understand this sentence: What does update-dlocatedb generate? | 05:39 |
| RRU_Sciguy | deryl, that's obvious. But I just have 32 bit pcs, so i dont really look into the 64 bit stuff | 05:39 |

| ubottu | denisubuntu: 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. | 05:45 |
| Ken8521 | denisubuntu: best is really subjective | 05:45 |
| histo | denisubuntu: ubuntu has a netbook version | 05:45 |
| lsoderman | Ken8521 - yup - tried from both CD and USB. Both boot, but gparted doesn't see it, and there is no HDx entries in /dev | 05:46 |
| Ken8521 | cough, that sucks, cough. | 05:46 |
| RRU_Sciguy | allen_, there is a limit as to how many partitions you can have on a drive | 05:46 |
| Ken8521 | lsoderman: that is just weird | 05:46 |

| Ken8521 | lsoderman: have you had ubuntu on that machine before... or is this machine extremely new or extremely old? | 05:46 |

| denisubuntu | i need speed not efects | 05:47 |
| glebihan | allen_: ok then you probably have reached the limit, solutions would be several hard drives or the use of extended partitions | 05:47 |
| deryl | 6? 3 primary and 1 extended with logicals correct? | 05:47 |
| Ken8521 | lsoderman: hmm... seems really unlikely since debian is recognizing it... but i wonder if ubuntu just doesn't recognize whatever hard drive controller it's using? | 05:48 |
| histo | Cityscape: yes I would follow those directions. | 05:48 |
| poena | hi folks, looks like there have been some install issues with asus netbook architecture, anyone know if there's a workaround yet? I'm looking forward to trying out maverick... | 05:48 |

| lsoderman | Ken8521 - nope. Same cable. They were originally set for M/S, but thought that might be a problem, so switched them both to C/S - no change. | 05:50 |

| Susanna | Neither has any of the windows a border and title bar | 05:58 |
| Susanna | I reconfigured metacity, but no success | 05:58 |
| gantrixx | Susanna, I have the same problem I think | 05:58 |
| Susanna | gantrixx: You solved it? | 05:58 |
| histo | Cityscape: basically install build-essentials and download the appropriate driver from nvidia.com then run the script that you download. It will walk you through the install. | 05:58 |
| Cityscape | histo: i search for "linux-restricted-modules" in synaptic and it found nothing. | 05:58 |
| gantrixx | No, I'm just now trying to figure out what the problem is | 05:58 |
| gantrixx | Susanna, do you get nothing but a purple screen and a mouse pointer? | 05:58 |
| gantrixx | Is everyone having this problem? | 05:59 |
| RRU_Sciguy | Susanna. id suggest burning a CD and trying a fresh installation after backup of important data | 05:59 |
| Cityscape | histo: so you mean to use the manual driver from nvidia? | 05:59 |

| JoeMaverickSett | RP64: it's just an application that stores the passwords. | 06:02 |
| RP64 | how do I re-enable it? | 06:02 |
| Susanna | gantrixx: you see a console? | 06:02 |
| GabrielYYZ | anyone has a problem doing a ping with network tools? (though ping works fine via terminal) | 06:02 |
| RP64 | also, when it was asking me, it was asking me for a password to OPEN my k-walet, and I didnt even set it up before | 06:02 |

| gantrixx | what is mutter? | 06:04 |
| RP64 | JoeMaverickSett: thx!!! | 06:04 |
| gantrixx | it says it's not currently installed | 06:04 |
| RP64 | JoeMaverickSett: now how do I set its password? | 06:05 |
| glebihan | gantrixx: that's weird cause mutter is unity's window manager... | 06:05 |
| frooh | ok, after reinstalling everything is perfect | 06:05 |
| gantrixx | well that could be the problem | 06:05 |
| RP64 | JoeMaverickSett: it asks me for my wallet password, and I enter my login but it doesn't work | 06:05 |
| frooh | not sure what the problem was | 06:05 |
| JoeMaverickSett | RP64: just type what you want it to set it. it's the mai password that will store all other passwords, so i'd go with your admin password. | 06:05 |

| denisubuntu | mohan yes i don't like exaile ,banshee and rythmbox | 06:25 |

| PhrostyB | did you notice that? | 06:26 |
| PhrostyB | :] | 06:26 |
| Mohan_chml | denisubuntu: Strange. you don't like the appearance or the whole application? | 06:26 |
| glebihan | PhrostyB: you're right, they're different, but I don't think you can just remove the mail applet from indicator | 06:26 |
| * Mohan_chml is a big fan of Rythmbox compared to itunes | 06:26 | |
| denisubuntu | yes i see | 06:27 |

| geist | yeah, ran memtest for an hour earlier today | 06:34 |
| geist | trying the older kernel | 06:34 |
| zacstone | Mohan_chml: i have 768 gib as ext 3 | 06:34 |
| histo | geist: hold shift to get the grub menu | 06:34 |

| greezmunkey | Ha! Ubuntu in a win7 VirtPC! | 06:35 |
| geist | as additional data | 06:35 |
| PhrostyB | it was only 3 lines :\ | 06:35 |
| PhrostyB | ok thanks glebihan | 06:35 |
| histo | geist: huh... power supply issue maybe? | 06:35 |
| geist | runs 10.04 fine | 06:35 |
| rabidweezle | I did a aptitude search pppd and pulled up 2 packages, ipppd and something else, but ipppd seems to be for isdn, I just need it for a "dialup" style line | 06:35 |
| histo | geist: thats just odd then. Hard to say without looking at some logs | 06:35 |
| geist | ah heh. 10.10 just booted like a champ with the old kernel | 06:36 |
| JoeMaverickSett | poena: hhmm, seems like i don't know why that happens. :( | 06:36 |
| geist | rebooting, going to try a few times | 06:36 |
| rabidweezle | (mobile broadband via wvdial) | 06:36 |
| glebihan | PhrostyB: btw the menu item is probably just hidden, right-click on menu, select "Edit menus" and go to System->Administation, you should find synaptic there and be able to enable the menu item | 06:36 |
| poena | aw i was kind of hoping you or someone would :( | 06:36 |
| Mohan_chml | zacstone: the error is that / is not defined and I had not installed maverick yet. so I am looking for screenshots | 06:36 |
| PhrostyB | ahhh!!! | 06:36 |
| PhrostyB | i didn't know | 06:36 |
| Mohan_chml | zacstone: give me a minute | 06:36 |
| poena | very odd bc 10.04 installed like a breeze | 06:36 |
| glebihan | rabidweezle: I think it's in ipppd package | 06:36 |
| JoeMaverickSett | poena: just be patient and ask the question, somone more skilled than me would help you out :) | 06:37 |
| zacstone | Mohan_chml: okay | 06:37 |
| PhrostyB | thanks glebihan ... apparently there's a lot of little quirks in ubuntu i'm not used to (i'm a long time linux mint user... few years now) | 06:37 |
| rabidweezle | glebihan: I'll give it a shot, thanks | 06:37 |
| Mohan_chml | zacstone: is the advanced partition tools display the partition setup ? | 06:37 |
| poena | i will stick around and chat :) | 06:37 |
| poena | oh i wanted to ask | 06:37 |
| poena | does 10.10 have window transparency? | 06:37 |
| JoeMaverickSett | poena: that's the spirit. :) | 06:37 |
| geist | histo: yeah, .32 kernel seems to be totally stable here... goign to try noapic on the new kernel | 06:37 |
| geist | it's a relatively 'big' box. server chipset, 16 cpus, multiple ioapics | 06:38 |
| geist | could be pushing something in the kernel | 06:38 |
| zacstone | Mohan_chml: i got nothing, i go straight to that mount and i cannot mount anything but dev/sda | 06:38 |
| histo | geist: yah I'd play with the acpi settings | 06:38 |
| zacstone | Mohan_chml: maybe i'm missing something? | 06:38 |
| denisubuntu | i've tried rythmbox and itunes..my results is that itunes is better ,fast transf | 06:38 |
| glebihan | PhrostyB: yeah it takes some time getting used to a new desktop environment | 06:38 |
| zacstone | Mohan_chml: i'm staring at GParted program and wonder whats I'm missing :/ | 06:39 |
| Mohan_chml | zacstone: are you in the Live CD now? and installing side by side? | 06:39 |
| cowsaysmoo | hey guys. i addded a couple of sata trays to my system but didn't plug any new hd's in. the uuids of the drives are the same but now when i boot up the system, i have my /home mounted in two places ... in /home and /mnt | 06:39 |
| zacstone | yes i'm on it now | 06:39 |
| glebihan | rabidweezle: you're welcome | 06:39 |
| zacstone | Mohan_chml: yes live cd | 06:39 |

| ganeshran | hi is it possible to mount a windows drive inside an ubuntu VM? | 06:39 |
| PhrostyB | glebihan, but it's not even a new desktop! it's gnome :P | 06:39 |
| cowsaysmoo | ganera sure | 06:39 |
| allen_ | cowsaysmoo, whats your question? | 06:39 |
| cowsaysmoo | allen_: i asked it already | 06:40 |
| Mohan_chml | zacstone: Okay the issue is that the / is not set (if you had installed the previous versions, you would have known how to set it) and the advanced partitioning tool will help | 06:40 |
| PhrostyB | except it has two panels instead of one.. but i'm planning on condensing it down to one i think | 06:40 |
| rabidweezle | but I see pppd in there so, I think it's cool | 06:40 |
| rabidweezle | thanks | 06:40 |
| allen_ | sorry i see it now, i couldnt see it for a sec | 06:40 |
| noisewaterphd | ganeshran: ive never had it actually work | 06:40 |
| glebihan | PhrostyB: well yes, but it's still a different panel and menu structure | 06:40 |
| cowsaysmoo | no sweat | 06:40 |
| PhrostyB | yeah | 06:40 |
| * rabidweezle gets out of X to test | 06:40 | |
| PhrostyB | the mint menu is a lot nicer i think.. have you seen the new one gleb? | 06:40 |
| ganeshran | noisewaterphd, hmm do you know any workaround? | 06:40 |
| zacstone | Mohan_chml: last version i installed with windows xp had no problem | 06:40 |
| zacstone | Mohan_chml: it was pretty much simple. | 06:40 |

| mrandrzejak | need help! please :) pressed ctrl + alt + f5 during a full screen game. then rebooted from terminal. upon reboot, my panels dont work | 07:04 |
| almoxarife | I was wondering why nautilus would give a filetype as 'unknow' while the terminal command 'file' is able to give the file type, in this case it's a video file | 07:04 |
| xangua | mrandrzejak: tried alt+f2 > gnome-panel > enter ¿ | 07:04 |
| bytesaber | mdadm assume i made a partition of type "fd" on each device i'm including? | 07:04 |

| mrandrzejak | im getting two error messages | 07:05 |
| glebihan | PhrostyB: I may have a solution, lemme test something, I'll get back to you | 07:05 |
| PhrostyB | ok | 07:05 |
| mrandrzejak | "the panel encountered a problem while loading" | 07:05 |
| PhrostyB | hey glebihan i think i found a solution to the two panel problem | 07:05 |
| geist | bytesaber: well, actually i dont think the kernel cares what the partition type is. it scans at boot for all members of a raid and assembles it for you | 07:06 |
| geist | but it makes sense to put them on a 0xfd partition | 07:06 |
| PhrostyB | until i figure out how to use mint tools in ubuntu... you can add custom gnome menu... which only has the icon and no text | 07:06 |
| bytesaber | ok | 07:06 |
| PhrostyB | it's a condensed version of the menu | 07:06 |
| mrandrzejak | "OAFIID:gnome-applet-ectrayApplet" | 07:06 |
| PhrostyB | then move everything else to the bottom | 07:06 |
| xangua | !panels | 07:06 |
| xangua | mrandrzejak: no idea, try then to restore it | 07:06 |
| ubottu | To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 07:06 |
| geist | also /proc/mdstat is your friend. you can see what the current status is at any time | 07:06 |
| mrandrzejak | also... "OAFIID:gnome-applet-ecmenuApplet" | 07:06 |
| laeg | !webmin | 07:07 |
| ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 07:07 |
| bytesaber | geist, four discs, all same size. if desiring a raid5 is that 3 active 1 spare? 4 active 0 spare? | 07:07 |
| di3gopa | glebihan, i uninstalled the update-manager, and the package is not on my repositories, getting a 404 but if try to change the repository i get the same error as the update-manager haha | 07:07 |

| PhrostyB | chilli0, probably the chrome forums.. but i think the feature is still there... check the faqs | 07:09 |
| bytesaber | geist, i don't think performance is a big must here. it's just a movie file server | 07:09 |
| glebihan | di3gopa: you don't have update-manager in the repos ??? could you pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list file ? | 07:09 |
| geist | i think grub can now boot from a raid5, but haven't tried that yet | 07:09 |
| bytesaber | geist, ah lvm. why the lvm ontop of the raid? | 07:09 |
| geist | cause it's very handy | 07:09 |
| geist | i always lvm on top of whatever array | 07:09 |
| bytesaber | guess i dunno what a lvm's are really all about | 07:09 |
| geist | think of it as a really fancy partitioner | 07:10 |
| geist | where you can resize, delete, create new ones, etc without moving any of the others around | 07:10 |
| bytesaber | extra things to get your finger tips onto for moving stuff around? | 07:10 |
| rww | LVM <3 | 07:10 |
| Sickler | i downloaded the xubuntu-wallpapers and my ubuntu appearance wallpaper tab isnt picking them up | 07:10 |
| geist | bytesaber: sure. also you can move volumes around between disks | 07:10 |
| bytesaber | nifty | 07:10 |

| di3gopa | glebihan, i do have the update-manager, but it is not found on the server i am using: http://paste.ubuntu.com/511442/ | 07:10 |

| toonacid | Quick question. Regarding root login. It's disabled by default. At one point I enabled it, but realizing it's insecure, I disabled it by using "passwd -l root", which seems to work, I SSH'd for root, and entering nothing doesn't work, and entering anything in the world doesn't work. My question is, does passwd -l ACTUALLY disable passworded logins for a user, and is it secure, seeing as I used it for the root user. | 07:27 |

| rhett_ | Hi so I just bought my first ubuntu one music | 07:38 |
| rhett_ | i bought an album | 07:38 |
| rhett_ | and it says transferred to ubuntu 1 | 07:38 |
| rhett_ | i just want to download it | 07:38 |
| thter | i edited my /etc/default/grub file and want to get it back to normal. does anyone know how to do this? | 07:38 |
| glebihan | i_is_broke: desktop edition is the version for most users, which comes with a desktop environment (gnome, kde, xfce...), server edition is a text-only edition dedicated to servers | 07:38 |
| pooltable | vivek still new how do i do that ? | 07:38 |
| lucent | poena: I'm using microSD in a USB reader and it works with msdos disk label and a single primary partition | 07:38 |
| vivek_40 | sd card poena: i am doubtful if it will work... but yes if lucent: says so, you should try | 07:38 |
| poena | perhaps you can clarify partion? I mean its formatted in fat32 then the ISO is built onto it | 07:38 |
| rhett_ | how do I download from my ubuntu one storage? | 07:39 |
| poena | *partition | 07:39 |
| Sandking | tensorpudding: so is there a way to backup my system so it would be implemented into fresh install of new os version? | 07:39 |
| lucent | poena: I mean /dev/sda1 not /dev/sda | 07:39 |
| i_is_broke | glebihan: thanks | 07:39 |
| asmartgoat | oh, poo apparently nm-applet isnt in the repos and its not on my system any ideas? | 07:39 |
| i_is_broke | i cant handle typing that much..lol | 07:39 |
| glebihan | bluefrog: weird, I have exactly the same files in both folders... | 07:39 |
| lucent | if there is only /dev/sda, then you must write over the device with a msdos disklabel and partition | 07:39 |
| glebihan | i_is_broke: you're welcome | 07:39 |
| denisubuntu | glebihan server is single for experts | 07:39 |
| KB1JWQ | Eh, not really. It's for people who want CLI only. | 07:40 |

| i_is_broke | denisubuntu: or not for the lazy.lmfao | 07:40 |
| lucent | Sandking: google search around for 'duplicity' is a great program to make backups with Ubuntu | 07:40 |
| thter | i edited my /etc/default/grub file and want to get it back to normal. does anyone know how to do this? | 07:40 |
| lucent | there's a tutorial how to make a backup and restore | 07:40 |
| poena | lucent im not sure I understand. Under win7 i format and use a USB boot builder (FUSB and pendrivelinux) to build it | 07:40 |
| poena | it should just be the single partition | 07:40 |
| Andorin | My wireless card, which has worked fine since 9.04, appears to be having trouble in 10.10... sometimes it doesn't see my home network It's an Atheros AR5001 card. What could have changed from Lucid to Maverick to actually break support for a wireless card? | 07:41 |
| lucent | poena: oh, well... I'm confused also. | 07:41 |
| poena | meh | 07:41 |
| poena | :( | 07:41 |
| lucent | "no partition" means you're using it as a single block device containing a filesystem | 07:41 |
| Gregory | hi. i have a major problem using Ubuntu on my laptop with legacy ATI Radeon x1200 graphics chipset. Within 10 minutes of using the desktop (even without desktop effects set to None) the screen becomes completely garbled and requires a restart. Does anyone here have a solution? | 07:41 |
| Gregory | without = with* | 07:41 |
| vivek_40 | poena: lucent: wont it be much easier not to use a sd card but a USB | 07:41 |
| bluefrog | glebihan, not weird. a copy of the files have been made for consistency | 07:41 |
| Sandking | lucent: thx | 07:41 |
| rhett_ | does anyone know how to get music i bought from unbuntu one? | 07:42 |
| denisubuntu | drivers ati solution | 07:42 |
| glebihan | bluefrog: the weird thing is that both keep getting updated | 07:42 |
| rhett_ | it won't download in rythmbox | 07:42 |
| poena | hmm ok let me try this | 07:42 |
| Gregory | denis? are you talking to me? | 07:42 |
| poena | i've been building using the SD card slot in my laptop | 07:42 |
| poena | i have a USB adapter for SD card | 07:42 |
| lucent | rhett_: I think it shows up in your "cloud" storage, so it would be accessed from Nautilus file manager (-the- file manager) | 07:42 |
| poena | will using that make a difference, or could it? | 07:42 |
| denisubuntu | yes gregory | 07:42 |
| qkumbers | For some reason I cannot find the libmodplug02c package in maverick. It is neither in 32bit or 64bit. I spoke with someone using the same platform but ch instead of us sources and he was able to see the package | 07:42 |
| vivek_40 | pooltable: how is your docky now | 07:42 |
| qkumbers | also http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/packages/show/250726 says it should be there | 07:42 |
| qkumbers | all i see is libmodplug1 not libmodplug0c2 | 07:43 |
| lucent | qkumbers: which Ubuntu? | 07:43 |
| bluefrog | glebihan, because you come from an old version. if you do a fresh install they will be only in one place .loca/share | 07:43 |
| Gregory | can u please elaborate on what is the ati driver solution? I am using a legacy card - Radeon x1200 | 07:43 |
| vivek_40 | anyway bye guys | 07:43 |

| pooltable | vivek i am new not sure what to type ? | 07:43 |
| rubydiamond | how to I see if there is USB hardware support enabled or not? | 07:43 |
| glebihan | bluefrog: you must be right, haven't done a fresh install since intrepid | 07:43 |
| deryl | woohoo! 10.10 desktop amd64 dvd worked perfectly | 07:43 |
| qkumbers | the only difference i can see is that he was using the desktop and i'm using minimal install | 07:44 |
| lucent | rhett_: I think it's integrated as part of Ubuntu 10.10; don't you have Ubuntu 10.10? | 07:44 |
| qkumbers | but our sources were identical besides ch versus us | 07:44 |
| bluefrog | glebihan, I figured that out | 07:44 |
| rhett_ | no :( | 07:44 |
| lucent | rubydiamond: usually in 'dmesg' command output there is a note about USB | 07:44 |

| Gregory | does anyone have as solution to the Radeon x1200 screen corruption issue without desktop effects on and using stock ubuntu 10.10? | 07:45 |
| lucent | yeah, that's why improvements are added and 10.10 is released, to make Ubuntu One more accessible | 07:45 |
| rhett_ | well | 07:45 |
| asmartgoat | ok, no i've figured it out | 07:45 |

| spork_boy | possibly on waiting for x server | 08:14 |
| Gregory | leling: i even tried KDE. same problem | 08:14 |
| stiltzkin | thter, as I was saying, one compelling reason might be if you have an encrypted filesystem (/, /home, swap, etc) and want to keep your disk completely encrypted (as /boot has to be unencrypted). So you might put your /boot on a removable ironkey to be extra safe | 08:14 |

| Jordan_U | momentum: Because the netbook interface is optimized for small screens and is somewhat awkward on a full resolution desktop. | 08:18 |

| stiltzkin | zacstone, and do you have the appropriate hardware drivers installed for that card? | 08:19 |
| zacstone | stiltzkin: i mean ASUS 120hz monitor, not ACER one | 08:19 |
| Jordan_U | momentum: Then what' | 08:19 |

| stiltzkin | zacstone, go to system -> administration -> hardware drivers and make sure that the NVIDIA driver is listed | 08:20 |
| denisubuntu | zacstone you want to burn the retinal... | 08:20 |
| Jordan_U | momentum: The only difference between Ubuntu versions is the set of default apps, there is no special sauce in netbook remix to make it boot faster. | 08:20 |
| Jordan_U | !minimal | momentum | 08:20 |
| ubottu | momentum: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD).

| zacstone | stiltzkin: just addition drivers | 08:20 |
| Gregory | Jordan_U; does the minimal cd include a partition editor like gparted? | 08:21 |
| stiltzkin | zacstone, yeah that's the one. different versions have different names for it | 08:21 |
| bastidrazor | momentum: suspend fried a monitor? that is impossible.. | 08:21 |
| Jordan_U | Gregory: As part of the installer, yes. | 08:21 |
| zacstone | stiltzkin: it said driver is actived and currently in use | 08:21 |

| pisi | cdrom-s and usb disks don't auto mount (and /dev looks strange) after upgrading to 10.10 with apt-get dist-upgrade (ad a do-release-upgrade failed once and failed to find a new release after it had changed sources.list to maverick) | 08:22 |
| bastidrazor | momentum: sounds more like a user error not suspend issue. | 08:22 |
| pisi | ideas? udev related? apt-get --reinstall udev did not help at least. | 08:22 |
| stiltzkin | zacstone, IIRC the issue is that Ubuntu's Display app doesn't know how to control the refresh rate on the binary blob NVIDIA driver, so you just have to change the setting in the NVIDIA config | 08:22 |
| momentum | bastidrazor: well, that never happened in osx; only in ubuntu | 08:23 |
| stiltzkin | zacstone, for example, a related bug is this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20/+bug/92599 | 08:23 |

| kennethsime | momentum: it is a common problem when people use bootcamp and follow that tutorial on how to dual-boot ubuntu on macbooks | 08:33 |
| stiltzkin | zacstone, ok. well in that case how did you get to this particular point? You installed, then I assume enabled the latest NVIDIA driver, and then what | 08:33 |
| zacstone | then went straight to setting to turn it up to 120hz and 1080p | 08:33 |
| stiltzkin | zacstone, what did you get when you tried nvidia-settings | 08:34 |

I would rather have the mobility of having it installed on a flash drive, is there any way to make that menu at the beginning that's asking me if I want to try or install go away? It takes so long after I click try every time | 08:35 |
| stiltzkin | zacstone, oh ok well at least that works. try changing your refresh rate there instead | 08:35 |
| kennethsime | momentum: nope, that looks pretty darn good. have you done the "refit partition tool"? It syncs the MBR & GUID partitions. without this, refit may still be slow. | 08:35 |
| zacstone | stiltzkin: well i changed refresh rates and it still stuck at 60 | 08:35 |
| stiltzkin | zacstone, but it lets you change them in the NVIDIA app to whatever you want? | 08:36 |

| kennethsime | SaRy: burg? googling... | 08:36 |
| SaRy | You'll find it on omg ubuntu | 08:37 |
| zacstone | stiltzkin: it even realized my monitor too | 08:37 |
| skumara | i'm using ubuntu. when i open kget , it does not appear in the panel and only run in memory. how to make it appear in the panel or make it gui appear in desktop? | 08:37 |
| stiltzkin | zacstone, alright. then at this point I'd reinstall and try selecting the older driver instead. Might be a bug with the latest version. Somehow your xorg.conf got screwed up which probably isn't helping things. Before you reinstall you can try to reconfigure it with "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and following the steps | 08:37 |
| denissubuntu | hi i am back | 08:38 |

| sunny1 | Quick question, what's the command to show sound in task bar? | 08:40 |
| pksadiq | zacstone: let me try to fix your problem? | 08:40 |
| stiltzkin | sunny1, you mean to show the sound applet, or to control sound on the commandline | 08:40 |
| SaRy | kennethsime: Grub animated , or burg animated theme .. Something like that as I remember. | 08:40 |
| sunny1 | stiltzkin: Sound applet | 08:40 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: i'm rolling drivers back, or you have better suggest? | 08:40 |

| denissubuntu | apple are artists | 08:42 |
| pksadiq | zacstone: Do what you are doing and come back if errors | 08:42 |
| Giles | I accidentally uninstalled the default theme in maverick what is the package called so I can re-install it? | 08:42 |
| stiltzkin | sunny1, keep in mind it is called "Indicator Applet" in the selection box now, and not "Volume Control," which might be confusing | 08:42 |
| sunny1 | stiltzkin: Yea oddly not, had trouble in 10.04, upgraded today still have trouble | 08:42 |
| rctgamer3 | Any way to reset ubuntu without a ubuntu cd but with access to the partition (ext2fsd, nothing appears though)? | 08:42 |

| ubuntunewb | hi to add an entry in mycomputer for a mounted drive | 08:43 |
| stiltzkin | sunny1, np. they should have been clearer about what that does | 08:43 |
| Jordan_U | rctgamer3: You're going to need to explain the exact situation you're in. | 08:43 |
| Giles | TomRIOT: E: Unable to locate package ambience | 08:43 |

| TomRIOT | Giles: just a sec | 08:44 |
| rww | Giles: light-themes | 08:44 |
| stiltzkin | alright I've been here an hour or so...anyone wanna take a shot at my problem with nautilus? I'll give any and all details necessary | 08:44 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: i don't see older drivers anymore | 08:44 |
| rctgamer3 | I tried to upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10, but halfway through it stopped (hung) and i had to power off, tried to boot ubuntu again, then i got Console: Switching to colour frame buffer device 128x48 in recovery mode, normal mode stays black. | 08:45 |
| rww | Giles: though if you removed that, you also removed ubuntu-artwork and ubuntu-desktop, and I'd recommend installing one of those instead. | 08:45 |
| Giles | rww ta | 08:45 |
| dumont | where can I associate a hostname with IP address like the hosts in windows? | 08:45 |
| skumara | what is the command to use to reinstall a package or fix installation error of a package? | 08:45 |
| pksadiq | zacstone: and so You need Nvidia drivers isn't it? | 08:45 |
| sunny1 | dumont: I think /etc/hosts | 08:45 |
| rww | dumont: /etc/hosts, same format as the hosts file in Windows (they copied it from UNIX ;) | 08:45 |
| rctgamer3 | dumont, the hosts file in C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts | 08:45 |
| dumont | thx | 08:45 |
| dumont | got it | 08:46 |
| Giles | also anyone know what is wrong with this: | 08:46 |

| Giles | error in Version string '3.0.12-54655_Ubuntu_karmic': invalid character in revision number | 08:46 |
| pksadiq | zacstone: Can't you install nvidia-current? | 08:46 |
| Jordan_U | stiltzkin: Filing a bug report may be the fastest way to figure out what's going wrong. | 08:46 |
| notsonew | stiltzkin: what problem with nautilus | 08:46 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: that will change my resolution to 120hz refresh | 08:46 |
| DaveWM | I'm not able to sync my tomboy notes atm, even when i login to ubuntu one web and look at notes tab says something has gone wrong, this is a new maverick install, anybody know what might be going on ? | 08:46 |
| rww | Giles: you have Virtualbox installed, I take it? | 08:46 |
| pksadiq | zacstone: Do you know to use terminal well? | 08:46 |
| stiltzkin | Jordan_U, considering, but figured asking here first was a good idea. notsonew: it segfaults when opening the "Sharing Options" pane | 08:46 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: i'm not too familiar in this area | 08:47 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: i can follow you, i used to msdos too :/ | 08:47 |
| stiltzkin | notsonew, the traceback is (if helpful): nautilus[1309]: segfault at 3c00000 ip 04381e39 sp bf86a668 error 4 in libc-2.12.1.so[4311000+157000] | 08:47 |
| Giles | rww: yes, although I had these errors while upgrading to maverick, and it disabled the virtualbox source | 08:47 |
| pksadiq | zacstone: k, don't care , install nvidia-current and delete the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 08:47 |
| mikebeecham | hi there...can anyone tell me a good gmail notifier that will sit in the MeMenu? | 08:47 |
| rww | Giles: "3.0.12-54655_Ubuntu_karmic" isn't a correctly-formatted version string for a Debian package. Whoever maintains that source made a mistake, basically. | 08:48 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: which to do first install or delte? | 08:48 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: delete | 08:48 |
| pksadiq | first install | 08:48 |
| stiltzkin | notsonew, and I'm running 10.10, 2.6.35-22, all latest packages installed | 08:48 |

| Giles | rww: how can I get rid of that reference in available and status? | 08:49 |
| Giles | rww: can I just delete the offending section | 08:50 |

| rctgamer3 | so, any solution? | 08:50 |

| zacstone | pksadiq: i only see 2 folders in my hard drive | 08:51 |
| rww | mikebeecham: using Ubuntu 10.10? | 08:51 |
| mikebeecham | rww, yup | 08:51 |
| rww | Giles: change the underscores to something else in the file it mentions. Not the best solution, but it works. | 08:51 |
| pksadiq | zacstone: wait | 08:51 |
| rww | mikebeecham: install the gm-notify package, it's in Ubuntu's repositories now. | 08:51 |

| AshyIsMe | ok random thing | 09:04 |
| AshyIsMe | i cant find a download accelerator for linux | 09:04 |
| AshyIsMe | any ideas? | 09:04 |
| tonyyarusso | There's no such thing as a download accelerator. | 09:04 |
| uLinux | yep | 09:04 |
| pksadiq | AshyIsMe: gwget | 09:04 |
| pksadiq | uLinux: GOT RIGHT? | 09:05 |
| rww | mikebeecham: Open Software Sources; click the "Other Software" tab, uncheck the gm-notify-maintainers PPA line, click the "Ubuntu Software" tab, make sure "Community-maintained Open Source software (universe)" is checked. Click "Close", update the package cache if it asks you to. Open Synaptic Package Manager, search for "gm-notify", right-click, click Mark for Installation, click Mark, click Apply, click Apply. | 09:05 |
| uLinux | tonyyarusso: I mean some programs like multiget use 10 connections so it can "speed up" the download speed | 09:05 |
| rubydiamond | lucent: can you invite me in private chat .. don't know how to do that with weechat | 09:05 |
| Jordan_U | AshyIsMe: The only way a download can be "accellerated" is by hitting an already overloaded server with more load, and taking more than your fair share of that server's bandwidth from other users. | 09:05 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: okay i'm back.. | 09:05 |
| AshyIsMe | Jordan_U, yeah, exactly like what windows users do | 09:06 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: it loads up fine, not funny like last time.. should i go ahead change refresh rates now? | 09:06 |
| pksadiq | zacstone: k, now in terminal type sudo nvidia-settings | 09:06 |

| AshyIsMe | Jordan_U, offer me a torrent link and i'll gladly share my bandwidth with other users | 09:07 |
| EagleYS | I have a question about upgrading from Ubuntu 9.10 to 10.10 | 09:07 |
| AshyIsMe | offer me only a http download and i'll max my connection using an accelerator | 09:07 |
| AbhiJit | EagleYS, ask | 09:07 |
| pksadiq | zacstone: now select X server Display Configuration, and change resolution | 09:08 |
| === root is now known as Guest29911 | ||
| zacstone | okay | 09:08 |
| paulag | Jordan_U: possibly it is just a site that is deliberately reducing upstream or even worse: his ISP reducing downstream per ip connection. | 09:08 |
| EagleYS | If I upgrade using the update manager, will it only install to that partition? | 09:08 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: doing that | 09:08 |
| Jordan_U | AshyIsMe: That doesn't answer my question :) | 09:08 |
| EagleYS | Or take up the whole hard drive? | 09:08 |
| EagleYS | I have the Ubuntu system files on one partition, my docs on another, Windows and the recovery drive on another 2 | 09:08 |
| rww | EagleYS: If you upgrade with update manager, it'll only touch your existing Ubuntu partition(s). | 09:08 |
| EagleYS | Alright | 09:08 |
| EagleYS | Thanks :D | 09:08 |
| rww | EagleYS: so the first partition you just mentioned. | 09:08 |
| AbhiJit | EagleYS, will install to where your current '/' i.e. root partition is | 09:08 |
| EagleYS | ok | 09:08 |
| pksadiq | zacstone: click apply, if it works, then save, else wait a while,it will be restored | 09:08 |
| AshyIsMe | Jordan_U, my point is that i dont agree with your analogy | 09:09 |
| AshyIsMe | i download the same amount of data, just quicker | 09:09 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: still 60hz at 120hz refresh rate setting | 09:09 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: siiigh | 09:09 |
| AshyIsMe | using 10 peoples amount of connections but for 1/10th of the time | 09:09 |
| Jordan_U | AshyIsMe: I am not making an analogy, I am asking a question which is directly applicable to your situation. | 09:09 |
| AshyIsMe | plus most windows users would already be using accelerators anyway | 09:09 |
| rctgamer3 | Any way to reset ubuntu without a ubuntu cd (no empty cd's) but with access to the partition (ext2fsd, nothing appears though)? I tried to upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10, but halfway through it stopped (hung) and i had to power off, tried to boot ubuntu again, then i got Console: Switching to colour frame buffer device 128x48 in recovery mode, normal mode stays black. | 09:09 |
| pksadiq | zacstone: actually the 120 Mhz is vertical only, select auto that's better | 09:10 |
| AshyIsMe | so there's no benefit from me refraining from them | 09:10 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: still 60hz on auto too! | 09:10 |
| pksadiq | zacstone: so what's the problem with 120 mHz? | 09:11 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: more msooth mouse movement and better smooth 3d gamign | 09:11 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: smooth | 09:11 |
| AshyIsMe | also there are premium services such as rapidshare which support download accelerators being used with their servers | 09:11 |
| AshyIsMe | so what's a good linux accelator for those services? | 09:12 |
| AshyIsMe | nm though, i just got flashgot in firefox :) | 09:12 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: 60hz is too old for me.. i have LCD monitor that can do 120hz and 1920x1080p | 09:12 |
| pksadiq | zacstone: SELECT OPENGL settings | 09:12 |

| Dushi | is there a PDF to calc convertor/extractor for linux ? please reply me | 09:12 |
| zacstone | pksadiq: yeah... | 09:12 |
| Jordan_U | AshyIsMe: Rapidshare knows enough about how to manage a server to be able to throttle on a per ip basis, "support" of download accelerators is just marketing hype. | 09:12 |

| Brandon123456 | histo, it got lost somehow, I had my nephew over yesterday | 12:13 |
| Cybertinus | histo: ok, let me see. Have to reboot first, the desktop was not very workable anymore ;). | 12:13 |
| mackebt | maybe is not yet displaced the new version for ubuntu 10.10 | 12:14 |
| histo | Brandon123456: well then I would backup your files in /home/<username> just incase you are unable to mount it. | 12:14 |
| ubuntu | erUSUL: so it's kind of faking my previous system | 12:14 |
| Cybertinus | histo: the visual effects are already turned off | 12:14 |
| histo | Cybertinus: or you can hit ctrl+alt+F1 to get to console and sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 12:14 |
| glebihan | ovrflw0x: xfce uses some gnome components, if you really want to get rid of all of them, run "sudo apt-get remove gnome-*", and "sudo apt-get autoremove" again | 12:14 |

| mackebt | i'm running ubuntu 10.10 | 12:14 |
| erUSUL | ubuntu: now run « passwd youruser » | 12:14 |

| Cybertinus | histo: true :). Should have thought of that | 12:15 |
| Brandon123456 | I wrote down the code 'cause a window prompted me to, but I dunno what it's for | 12:15 |
| histo | Brandon123456: well then I would backup your files since you no longer have the code. | 12:15 |
| odb|fidel | hi - is there a way to redefine how close a mouse-cursor must be placed next to a window-border to grab it (resizing still feels pretty hard to do in 10.10 ...as it was in 10.04). Is that Gnome Theme related or a general Gnome Setting? | 12:15 |
| Brandon123456 | ok histo | 12:15 |
| histo | Brandon123456: that way if something back happens you will still have your data. | 12:15 |
| ovrflw0x | glebihan: i have two power managers xfce and gnome how can i uninstall gnome one? | 12:15 |
| histo | odb|fidel: maybe poke around in gconf-editor | 12:15 |
| Brandon123456 | histo, oh so the code was in case I couldn't access my home folder anymore? | 12:15 |
| histo | Brandon123456: yes. | 12:16 |
| ubuntu | erUSUL: successfully!!! you so smart erUSUL !!! | 12:16 |
| glebihan | ovrflw0x: the gnome one is called gnome-power-manager, you can remove this package | 12:16 |
| RippleEffect | How can I upgrade to version 10.10? sudo apt-get dist-upgrade doesn't do it and the package manager also doesn't say anything that Ubuntu 10.10 is available. In the past it always recognized the new versions. | 12:16 |
| erUSUL | ubuntu: now; do not forget it again | 12:16 |
| erUSUL | XD | 12:16 |
| ovrflw0x | glebihan: both power managers are running i don't want that to happen with other programs too what to do? | 12:16 |
| Cybertinus | histo: any other ideas to get the window manager back up and running? | 12:16 |
| odb|fidel | histo: any idea where or any keyword you remember? | 12:16 |
| histo | RippleEffect: Ssytem > administration > Software sources. On the updates tab you need to change the bottom radio dial. | 12:17 |
| Brandon123456 | histo, so hypothetically speaking, I'd create a new account or log in as root or whatever, then try to access the lost home folder of the messed up account, then enter that code to access it? | 12:17 |
| glebihan | ovrflw0x: as I said, if you want to remove all gnome components, "sudo apt-get remove gnome-*" | 12:17 |
| histo | odb|fidel: I have no idea but it's in there somewhere i'm sure | 12:17 |
| odb|fidel | histo: hehe ok | 12:17 |

| ovrflw0x | glebihan: should i also add in && install xubuntu-desktop? | 12:17 |
| RippleEffect | histo, it is no "only notify about available updates" | 12:18 |
| Cybertinus | histo: ok | 12:18 |
| erUSUL | ubuntu: you are wellcome | 12:18 |
| Brandon123456 | ok histo, so a backup will fix my lost code xD, tyvm for helping :) | 12:18 |
| histo | RippleEffect: the one about notifying about long term releases | 12:18 |
| zodono | can anyone tell mewhy my mic which was working in 10.04 is not working in 10.10, google was no help | 12:18 |
| basso | how do i reset the grub config? | 12:19 |
| ovrflw0x | glebihan: ? | 12:19 |
| RippleEffect | histo, ok I changed it to all releases. Now what? | 12:19 |
| glebihan | ovrflw0x: you already installed it, right ? if so, no | 12:19 |
| histo | Cybertinus: if visual effects is set to none then compiz should be off. | 12:19 |
| histo | RippleEffect: now open update manager | 12:19 |
| ovrflw0x | glebihan: you told me xfce uses some gnome packages | 12:19 |
| ct529 | hi guys I have some problems with the installation of wordpress on ubuntu 10.04 | 12:19 |
| RippleEffect | histo, ah!! Thx | 12:19 |
| ct529 | I do not seem to be able to re-direct /local/blogs to /usr/share/wordpress | 12:20 |
| glebihan | ovrflw0x: well it *can* use some gnome components : they appear in recommended packages, but not in dependencies | 12:20 |
| ct529 | I installed using the repository, and followed the instructions but only made a mess out of it | 12:20 |
| Cybertinus | histo: true. And that is exactly what I want. But now I have a little to less effects. Effects like "being able to move a window" or "giving a window focus" are much appriciated here ;). And in order to do that, I must configure Gnome to run Metacity as its window manager. How to do that? | 12:20 |
| histo | ct529: huh? You want the pages hosted out of /usr/share/wordpress? | 12:20 |
| histo | Cybertinus: if effects are set to none then metacity is being used. | 12:21 |
| ct529 | histo: yes .... that is where the package from the repository installs it | 12:21 |
| zodono | this microphone problem is hurting my heart | 12:21 |
| histo | ct529: okay wordpress is a blogging content manager isn't it? | 12:21 |
| ct529 | histo: and where the README.debian file recommends to keep them | 12:21 |
| histo | !sound > zodono | 12:21 |
| ubottu | zodono, please see my private message | 12:21 |
| Cybertinus | histo: yes, normaly it is. But not in my case. I don't have any window manager atm. | 12:21 |
| ct529 | histo: yes it is | 12:21 |
| histo | ct529: the pages themself are not hosted in /usr/.... they are probably in /var/www/ | 12:22 |
| ct529 | histo: nope they defnitively are in mysql + /usr/share/wordpress | 12:22 |
| histo | Cybertinus: have you tried logging in as a different user? | 12:22 |
| histo | Cybertinus: maybe an issue with something setting in yoru account. Or more specifically your gconf settings | 12:23 |
| ct529 | histo: and that is what I wanted to do .... point /localhost/blogs to /usr/share/wordpress/ | 12:23 |
| ovrflw0x | glebihan: when i do remove gnome-* it tells me new packages of KDE will be installed! why? | 12:23 |
| histo | ct529: what directions are you following | 12:23 |
| Cybertinus | histo: no, I haven't tried that. I only have one user on that computer. I'm gonna create a second now and see what he gets. | 12:23 |
| zodono | histo: yes, i know to set the input and whatever and make sure it isnt muted// it was working on was working fine on 9.04, and still working after i upgraded to 10.04, and now at 10.10 it is broken | 12:23 |

| jhesketh_ | Hey. So since the netbook edition can now boot into the standard ubuntu (gnome) desktop are there any differences (besides having unity included) between the netbook and desktop editions? | 12:24 |
| histo | jhesketh_: nope | 12:24 |
| jhesketh_ | histo: thanks... so why bother having a netbook edition and not just give users the option of interface when they boot up? | 12:25 |
| glebihan | ovrflw0x: probably because some installed packages depend on either a package from gnome or one from kde; as you're forcing to uninstall gnome packages, it will install the depency from kde | 12:25 |
| ovrflw0x | glebihan: which one would be better? | 12:25 |
| ovrflw0x | dependency from kde or gnome? | 12:25 |
| glebihan | ovrflw0x: either one should work just as fine | 12:26 |
| pibb | im trying to install ubuntu on one of my partitions, but its saying i dont have a / mount point. is there a way to change that without reformating it? | 12:26 |
| histo | jhesketh_: so people with 7" screens have something usable. I believe unity is the only difference. | 12:26 |
| ovrflw0x | glebihan: is there command which leaves the dependecy alone and only remove 'extra' gnome stuff? | 12:26 |
| histo | pibb: set that parttion as / | 12:26 |
| jhesketh_ | histo: fair enough. Cheers :-) | 12:26 |

| Dr_Willis | Ankitg: depends on how the theme is archived.. why are you not using the GUI to do it? | 12:29 |
| histo | Cybertinus: make sure ubuntu-desktop is installed and sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 12:29 |
| histo | Cybertinus: thats just odd perhaps someone else may have more suggestions | 12:29 |
| Dr_Willis | Ankitg: cd .themes unp /path/to/theme.whatever | 12:29 |
| Ankitg | because its not working for every theme | 12:29 |
| glebihan | ovrflw0x: I can't find such an option | 12:30 |
| Ankitg | also i want to command over terminal so using it as much as i can | 12:30 |
| histo | Ankitg: then extract in ~/.themes | 12:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Ankitg: it could be you are missunderstanding themes vs 'theme parts' check the customize button. to see if what you are 'not working for' are showing up in there. | 12:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Ankitg: a 'widgit' theme is not a full theme set. its just a theme for the buttons and so forth. | 12:30 |
| Ankitg | okssssss | 12:30 |
| Dr_Willis | Ankitg: a metaciey theme is just a theme for the window outside decorations, and so forth | 12:30 |
| Ankitg | thats good to know thanks for telling me | 12:31 |
| Dr_Willis | icon themes = :) just for the icon sets... | 12:31 |
| Cybertinus | histo: ubuntu-desktop is installed. apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade didn't have any packages for me. | 12:31 |
| Ankitg | how to get the full theme | 12:31 |
| Dr_Willis | the term 'theme' is way to broad. | 12:31 |
| Ankitg | exactly | 12:31 |
| Dr_Willis | Ankitg: depends on the exact theme.. not all theme files are full theme sets... | 12:31 |
| Ankitg | yes | 12:31 |
| Dr_Willis | mixx and match the parts as youy like.. save the 'settings' you got a theme. | 12:31 |
| Ankitg | but when i extract them and apply | 12:31 |
| Ankitg | they produce error | 12:31 |

This means my ubuntu partition is only about 8GB since my windows partition has to hold a load of games. I am going to run out of space eventually on this ubuntu partitionn so is there anyway I can make apps install on my main hdd once it fills up? | 12:33 |

| Sadlymistaken | Dr_Willis i am connected with MY wifi. So firewall sometimes need Eth01.... another times eth0.... (sorry my english is very poor in vocabulary) | 12:39 |
| ganja | But how to remvoe the already downloaded files specially from pool | 12:39 |
| ganja | ?? | 12:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm.. my eth# never changes for my wireless.. My wired is eth0, wireless is eth1 | 12:39 |
| Dr_Willis | Sadlymistaken: if you mean you need to set it up for both a wired and wireless network.. well you need to configure your firewall to do it that way. I dont bother with a firewall in ubuntu. | 12:40 |
| judgen | I have disabled the splash in the first part of the bootup sequence. but a splash shows up a few seconds before Xorg is launched, how do i disable this too? | 12:40 |
| Cybertinus | ChogyDan: the extra packages didn't make any difference. Still no window manager | 12:40 |
| Dr_Willis | judgen: theres the 'text' option to the kernel.. but that will make gdm not load also.. | 12:40 |

| Dr_Willis | Ankitg: depends on what you mean access... ssh, scp. samba, nfs, telnet.. | 12:41 |
| Cybertinus | ChogyDan: well, exactly as I say it. I don't have any window manager running atm. So: no title bars on screens, not being able to switch the focus, and so on. | 12:41 |
| ganja | okz. | 12:41 |
| histo | ganja: how big is a repo? | 12:41 |
| ganja | its about 187 GB :( | 12:41 |

| ganja | i have only 200 GB so have to remove old repos to make space for 10.10 | 12:42 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm. I just use apt-cacher-ng to help my network get packages faster. I dont mirror a whole repo.. thats sort of hard to justify. | 12:42 |
| Sadlymistaken | Dr_willis, ok.... Only one question more, if i turn out, and turn in again my Wifi router... it's change "eth01" to another "eth01_rename" or that is something IN my pc... not in the router? | 12:42 |
| ganja | thanx il try that | 12:42 |
| Cybertinus | histo: running dpkg-reconfigure -a now | 12:42 |

| === cs278|| is now known as cs278 | ||

| Cybertinus | ChogyDan: yeah, then I get to see the window manager. But I would really like to see it without entering that command ;) | 12:43 |
| Sadlymistaken | Dr_Willis... ok... thanks for reading me..... I need a firewall. | 12:44 |
| Sadlymistaken | Bye Bye everybody!! | 12:44 |

| Cybertinus | histo: OK, thnx anyway :) | 12:47 |
| bazhang | Aura, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic | 12:47 |
| Dr_Willis | judgen: err.. aptitude and apt-get install stuff from the repos.. not files.. you sure you dont want 'sudo dpkg -i foo*' ? | 12:48 |
| Dr_Willis | judgen: it would be a weird repo that changes the normal package filenames. | 12:48 |
| judgen | Dr_Willis, I want them to download and install them all. | 12:48 |
| Cybertinus | does anyone know how I can configure Gnome to use Metacity as the window manager? Currently it is set to nothing | 12:48 |
| Aura | I have virtual machines. | 12:49 |
| bazhang | Aura, stop that | 12:49 |
| Dr_Willis | Cybertinus: you could install/run fusion-icon - its a tool to handle setting that and recovering from compiz/metacity crashes. | 12:49 |
| Dr_Willis | Cybertinus: but alt-f2 'metacity --replace' should do it for once also.. then you can disable compiz. | 12:49 |

| TiK | opns up a run box | 12:51 |
| Dbl_Tap | alt-f2 is specific to the gnome-panel(s) | 12:51 |
| Dr_Willis | I was thnking it was metacity... but ive never tried it with no panels :) | 12:52 |
| Dr_Willis | some other window managers support it also i recall. | 12:52 |
| Cybertinus | Dr_Willis: I'm running Ubuntu 10.10, with the netbook remix interface. I'm logging in normally at gdm. And then I get the normal netbook interface, but when I start I program I don't have a titlebar or I can't change the focus. | 12:52 |
| Dr_Willis | ahh the netbook... | 12:52 |
| Dr_Willis | thats using somthing other then metacity i recall. | 12:53 |
| Aura | What is the matter here ? | 12:53 |
| Dr_Willis | I dident think the netbook interface used the titlebars.. everything was maxzmized. | 12:53 |
| svip | During a distribution upgrade, I am running low on disk space on my /usr partition, but I have lots of free space on my /home partition, is not possible to tell it to use that for a while? | 12:53 |
| Dbl_Tap | Dr_Willis: yeah I only know because I use Cairo-Dock; which happens to be ctrl-f2. Lol | 12:53 |

| Ankitg | i configure compiz and my netbook start behaving abnormaly..y? top and bottom tray was removed y? | 12:54 |
| philinux | svip: you need to use gparted and resize to give more space to /usr | 12:54 |
| Dbl_Tap | Cybertinus: can you create a new launcher on the desktop; assuming you are in graphics mode? If so just have the launch gnome-panel | 12:54 |
| AbhiJit | !panels | Ankitg | 12:54 |
| ubottu | Ankitg: To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 12:54 |
| Dr_Willis | Ankitg: I think the netbook interface is not designed to work with compiz. But ive not really messed with the netbook interface in 10.10 yet. | 12:55 |
| Cybertinus | Dr_Willis: yeah, the window manager should take care of automatically maximizing. But that is the problem :). I don't have a window manager ;). | 12:55 |
| Dr_Willis | The netbook interface is getting very different these days. | 12:55 |
| svip | philinux: Not really possible during a distribution upgrade. | 12:55 |

| Dr_Willis | qwd: reinstlling is 'windows thinking' as a test she could try 'firefox --safe-mode' from a terminal - see if that makes firefox behave. if it does.. then tis some firefox users setting. not a system setting issue | 13:00 |

When I double click on a torrent file it launches Amarok and there is a 'Open with Amarok' menu item in the right-click popup menu. How to change the file associations?

| christf | pure_hate, "Error: Failed to retrieve share list from server" | 14:43 |
| beli | dorenda: this is always a bit hard...best results are with gphoto2 | 14:43 |
| sresu | /join #openofice | 14:43 |
| nit | Inferus: did everything ... restarted x , updated , installed kubuntu , to check if it was just gnome thing ... nothing helps | 14:43 |
| h00k | ranjan: use System -> Administration -> Additional Drivers | 14:43 |
| pure_hate | christf: try the places > connect to server GUI with the IP | 14:43 |
| ranjan | h00k: are you sure that it wont crach the machine? | 14:43 |
| dorenda | beli: i tried that, it sees that the camera is there, but it can't read what's on the memory card | 14:44 |
| dedo91 | xdcc!send dear john | 14:44 |
| h00k | ranjan: I'm saying that's the best method for installing it | 14:44 |
| Misterio | ranjan: I won't do | 14:44 |
| sresu | Any channel on openoffice? | 14:44 |
| pure_hate | christf: use the IP on the server line | 14:44 |
| christf | pure_hate, windows share, right? | 14:44 |
| christf | pure_hate, kk | 14:44 |
| pure_hate | christf: yes | 14:44 |
| ranjan | h00k: there are many posts describing about the incompatibility of nvidia drivers with Maverick | 14:44 |
| beli | dorenda: you need to check if gphoto2 supports your cam and you need to tell it the right driver to use....and do the job as superuser | 14:44 |

| ranjan | Misterio: has anyone installed the nvidia driver in maverick successfully? | 14:44 |
| Misterio | ranjan: Yes, me | 14:45 |
| pure_hate | h00k: the nvidia drivers from the ppa work fine with 10.10 | 14:45 |
| ChogyDan | ranjan: ive been using nvidia on maverick fine for awhile now | 14:45 |
| h00k | ranjan: works here | 14:45 |
| Misterio | ranjan: After installing, you'll need to reboot | 14:45 |
| nit | Inferus: and yes .. in compiz settings all the option chekmarks are unchecked | 14:45 |
| ranjan | Misterio ChogyDan h00k which method you all used? | 14:45 |

| Noctis_Lux | UbuntuOne services for notes et bookmarks are down ? :/ | 14:46 |
| christf | pure_hate, in ubuntu, right? | 14:46 |
| beli | dorenda: so....get info about the chip your camera is using and take another model thats using that chip | 14:46 |
| ranjan | Misterio: what about the plymouth? | 14:46 |
| pure_hate | christf: you may have to manually mount the share with samba | 14:46 |
| Misterio | ranjan: What's that? | 14:46 |
| ranjan | Misterio: the graphicall boot screen :) | 14:47 |
| christf | pure_hate, How would I go about that? Also, that command didn't return any 192.168 addresses | 14:47 |
| Noctis_Lux | Need to export my Tomboy notes before change my hard drive... | 14:47 |
| Misterio | ranjan: Oh, I don't use that | 14:47 |
| ranjan | Misterio: is it ok or you are able to boot only using the text mode? | 14:47 |
| christf | pure_hate, Windows gave me a 192.168 address, though. | 14:47 |
| cedriczg | Hi, quick question... Would the download continue from where I left it, if I cancel an ubuntu upgrade within the package download? | 14:47 |
| Misterio | ranjan: I use text mode | 14:47 |
| ChogyDan | Noctis_Lux: is that a question? | 14:47 |
| dorenda | beli: aha, i'll try if i can find anything about the chip. how do i "take another model" though? | 14:47 |
| ranjan | Misterio: oh thats the problem. :) i am very much found of Plymouth splash screen | 14:48 |
| cedriczg | I mean a version upgrade | 14:48 |
| BluesKaj | christf, ip a | grep inet | 14:48 |
| h00k | ranjan: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1073362/Screenshot.png | 14:48 |
| christf | BluesKaj, I did that. Didn't return any 192.168 addresses though | 14:48 |
| h00k | ranjan: there was a post on OMG Ubuntu today that fixes that, I think | 14:48 |
| h00k | ranjan: never mind, I thought wrong | 14:48 |
| nit | my compiz has crashed after an update .. with no window borders no keyboard shortcuts working ... nothing ... any takers ? | 14:49 |
| ranjan | hook :) | 14:49 |
| Noctis_Lux | ChogyDan, the question was before : UbuntuOne for notes is down ? And if it is... Yes that's a question. | 14:49 |
| kenaj | how do I upgrade to maverick? | 14:49 |
| h00k | !upgrade | kenaj | 14:49 |
| ubottu | kenaj: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade | 14:49 |
| BluesKaj | christf, try ifconfig | 14:49 |
| cedriczg | kenaj, you have to select normal versions from the software origin manager | 14:49 |
| christf | BluesKaj, yes, Windows did return the 192.168 IP when I did that earlier. | 14:49 |
| ChogyDan | Noctis_Lux: I use dropbox... but the notes can just back up to any folder | 14:49 |
| ranjan | h00k: hey is that your screenshot? | 14:49 |
| h00k | ranjan: yes | 14:50 |
| zodono | kenaj: hope ur mic keeps working | 14:50 |
| gaberlunzie | help someone! while upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10, i got the dreaded system freeze that has been plaguing 64-bit ubuntu and now booting halts with a "general error mounting filesystems" msg! i'm running off a live cd on it right now ... what to do? | 14:50 |
| liquid_ | h00k, that wasnt his question | 14:50 |
| h00k | zodono: did you report a bug if you're not having any luck? | 14:50 |
| magnetron | nit: install "fusion icon". it can be used to reload or switch window manager while running | 14:50 |
| cedriczg | kenaj, and then you update your repositorie and will find a button from where to update | 14:50 |
| ranjan | h00k: its great, by the way i think that is an irc client that is running in the command prompt isnt it? | 14:50 |
| h00k | ranjan: it's called irssi | 14:50 |
| ChogyDan | gaberlunzie: was the upgrade interupted? | 14:50 |
| BluesKaj | christf, no that command also lists your box it will be listed as the "inet address" | 14:50 |
| zodono | h00k: yeah, reported the bug... whats changed though, why would it work in 10.04 and not now | 14:51 |
| ranjan | h00k: is it difficult to use? | 14:51 |
| gaberlunzie | @chogydan yes, by a freeze up | 14:51 |
| liquid_ | kenaj, u using ubuntu 10.04 then that is LTS...change ur update setings in Update Manager | 14:51 |
| nit | magnetron: have that already .. even its going crazy ... giving repeated options for the same action ... | 14:51 |
| ChogyDan | !grub2 | gaberlunzie follow the chroot method | 14:51 |
| ubottu | gaberlunzie follow the chroot method: 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 | 14:51 |
| cedriczg | I am upgrading my ubuntu version now. I am in download process. Will the download continue from here if I cancel it in the middle? | 14:51 |
| Kentrel | Hey | 14:51 |
| h00k | ranjan: no, and there's a ton of documentation on it http://www.irssi.org/ | 14:51 |
| christf | BluesKaj, I don't see any inet address in Windows, if that's what you're talking about? | 14:51 |
| zodono | kenaj: u can also update-manager -d | 14:51 |
| nit | cedriczg: yes | 14:51 |
| liquid_ | cederlov, maybe best not to cancel at this point | 14:51 |
| magnetron | nit: try choosing "reload" in the fusion-icon menu. you should get your window borders back within a second | 14:51 |
| cedriczg | great! thanks nit | 14:51 |
| KKeksas | hi i done upgrade to my 10.04 ubuntu and when i want to change my lcd screen % my laptop just freezes :( what i should do ? | 14:51 |
| Kentrel | I made a truecrypt container, mounted it and copied a 500MB file over. It didn't seem to take any longer than just copying a file normally - how can I be sure that it was actually encrypted? | 14:52 |
| christf | pure_hate, are you there? | 14:52 |
| ranjan | h00k: ok thank you for that infromation :) i will try that. | 14:52 |
| BluesKaj | christf, windows ?? | 14:52 |
| christf | BluesKaj, yup | 14:52 |
| Misterio | ranjan: You can install using "sudo apt-get install irssi", and execute it using "irssi". (You'll be able to use it using screen) | 14:52 |
| gaberlunzie | @chogydan @ubottu ok, i'll give the chroot method in the link a try | 14:52 |
| qopi | run the upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10 on my samsung NC10 the night before last but it didn't work :( any tips? | 14:52 |
| ranjan | Misterio: oh thats nice :) | 14:52 |
| nit | magnetron: ok i am talking about fusion icon indicator menu | 14:52 |
| Misterio | !screen > ranjan | 14:52 |
| ubottu | ranjan, please see my private message | 14:52 |
| liquid_ | qopi, details? | 14:52 |
| BluesKaj | these commands should be run in the linux terminal not on windows , christf | 14:52 |
| christf | BluesKaj, I thought ipconfig was for windows? | 14:53 |
| mun__ | hi | 14:53 |
| ChogyDan | gaberlunzie: just run sudo apt-get upgrade and then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade instead of the grub commands. ie, only do steps 1-7 | 14:53 |
| nit | magnetron: and no reload options is there | 14:53 |
| mun__ | can gnome be used on lubuntu? | 14:53 |
| magnetron | nit: i am talking about the APT package "fusion-icon" | 14:53 |
| dorenda | beli: i'll try if i can find anything about the chip. how do i "take another model" though? | 14:53 |
| BluesKaj | you were asking how to find the IP of your linucbox, christf | 14:53 |
| BluesKaj | linuxbox | 14:54 |
| rusty149 | ubuntunewbie: OK, you need to upgrade e2fsprogs to v1.41+ | 14:54 |
| gaberlunzie | @chogydan @ubutto i hope this works cuz this problem is scary | 14:54 |
| KKeksas | qopi, sudo update manager -d | 14:54 |
| christf | BluesKaj, Hang on, let me re-explain. | 14:54 |
| qopi | liquid_: it almost boots up, asks for my keyring password, and warns of low disk space (1GB left) but no menus or anything appear, just the brownish background and and X for a cursor | 14:54 |
| ChogyDan | KKeksas: it is just update-manager -c | 14:54 |
| memo_ | is anyone using a GEFORCE 7050 by any chance? | 14:54 |
| qopi | KKeksas: I'll see if I can try in a safe mode or something... | 14:55 |
| christf | BluesKaj, I've got Ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop and Win7 on my desktop. I want to access my Win7 system from my Ubuntu laptop, but every time I try to connect it keeps asking for a password/username, but it never accepts anything I put in. It even asks for a username/password even if the directory is open to ANYBODY on the network. | 14:55 |
| ae86-drifter | Could someone please tell me what this means? My system wont boot: according to mtab, none is already mounted on /lib/init/rw ; mountall: mount /lib/init/rw terminated with exit status 1. | 14:55 |
| cell0 | Can anyone suggest a good tool for traffic monitoring by protocol? | 14:56 |
| gaberlunzie | @chogydan running sudo apt-get upgrade | dist-upgrade from live cd doesnt work ... i get 0 results | 14:56 |
| foxjazz | a camera :P | 14:56 |
| ChogyDan | gaberlunzie: can you pastebin ALL of it? | 14:56 |
| foxjazz | how does sudo protect you from anything, anyone can type it | 14:57 |
| alessandro_ | ciao | 14:57 |
| ae86-drifter | cell0 you can use Squid proxy with squidilizer | 14:57 |
| iceroot | gaberlunzie: sudo apt-get update | 14:57 |
| magnetron | cell0: it all depends on what kind of monitoring you want to do but wireshark is very popular | 14:57 |
| iceroot | gaberlunzie: first you need to read the Packages files from the repos with update | 14:57 |
| BluesKaj | christf, W7 is a prob for me as well , sorry didn't mean to interfere , didn't realize you were dealing with W7 , it's networking sucks and I haven't been able to solve that problem either , samba and smb don't seem to work well with it. | 14:57 |
| alessandro_ | films | 14:57 |
| foxjazz | magnetron: wireshark doesn't work with my wireless card | 14:57 |
| christf | BluesKaj, ah k. Well that sucks >.<, I remember I had it working at one stage many months ago, but I can't remember how I did it, haha. | 14:58 |
| christf | BluesKaj, thank you anyway | 14:58 |
| mun__ | how do i check how many sticks of ram i have on my laptop? is there a command to check? | 14:58 |

| christf | If anybody can help: I've got Ubuntu 10.10 on my laptop and Win7 on my desktop. I want to access my Win7 system from my Ubuntu laptop, but every time I try to connect it keeps asking for a password/username, but it never accepts anything I put in. It even asks for a username/password even if the directory is open to ANYBODY on the network. | 14:58 |
| cell0 | @magnetron looking for simple input/output bytes for each protocol used on my box | 14:58 |
| magnetron | foxjazz: if the wireless card works in linux then it will work in wireshark. catching wifi packets require other skills than the ones used for wired LAN though | 14:59 |

| Wraithulek | ubuntu 10.10 on USB Stick have Live version? | 15:01 |
| christf | Vok, is it only from a specific website? Some websites have a PHP downloader which might confuse the browser/addon into thinking that it's an HTML file | 15:01 |
| ZykoticK9_ | foxjazz, are you using "gksudo wireshark"? | 15:01 |
| Vok | christf I've tried with several sites like rapidshare, megaupload etc | 15:01 |

| christf | Vok what happens if you try downloading one of the test files from your ISP? (here are some if you don't have any: http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/test/ ) | 15:04 |
| christf | Vok, do they save as HTML? | 15:04 |
| ChogyDan | gaberlunzie: did you run the chroot commands first? you have to get a chroot first before the apt-get or dpkg commands will mean anything | 15:04 |
| gaberlunzie | @iceroot i'm running from live cd; i had an upgrade interrupted by a freeze and cant boot | 15:05 |

| foxjazz | magnetron: I am using windows7, not linux with wireshark | 15:06 |
| ZykoticK9_ | foxjazz, well, re:wireshark you need to run it with admin rights to put the NIC in promiscuous mode. | 15:06 |
| Stellarium- | gaberlunzie: bad luck. | 15:06 |
| nit | magnetron: hey tried installing and running fusion icon .. heres the error http://paste.ubuntu.com/511681/ | 15:06 |
| ZykoticK9_ | foxjazz, if you are using Win7 that obviously doesn't apply | 15:06 |
| christf | Vok, My best guess is that it's because those websites are using a PHP method for download and the addons aren't used to it. I'm really not sure though. Perhaps you could contact the developers of downloadthemall. Sorry I couldn't be much help | 15:06 |
| ae86-drifter | Could someone please tell me what this means? My system wont boot: according to mtab, none is already mounted on /lib/init/rw ; mountall: mount /lib/init/rw terminated with exit status 1. | 15:06 |

| MarkSS | Is it normal for rkhunter to run on its own in the background at various times when I am not the one who started it? | 15:07 |
| gaberlunzie | @stellarium tell me about it! it's like a bad abortion, lol ...... i hope ur not saying it's a catastrophic failure! | 15:07 |
| tranqui | mine are on the right, not the left | 15:07 |
| tranqui | but I want them on the left | 15:08 |
| ZykoticK9_ | tranqui, see the link (moving both directions is there) | 15:08 |
| jrib | tranqui: i imagine you would do something similar to what ubottu suggested | 15:08 |
| ChogyDan | Vok: sometimes I would have to tell downthemall no to the first dialog, and the second dialog would be the real d/l | 15:08 |
| ChogyDan | gaberlunzie: you are just there to setup the chroot | 15:08 |
| christf | Vok, nah, I was actually going to get downloadthemall soon because I keep having my downloads interrupted >.<, sorry. | 15:08 |

| mamece2 | i have developed some love to the VM, they have worked for me, no need to dual boot | 15:11 |

| karmic-koala | Hi all, I am trying to setup a ticketing system (user support) on ubuntu server. The system needs to be able to read email from Gmail (either real time or thru a pull using a cron job), will I need to setup a Mail Delivery Agent or a Mail Transfer Agent to do what I want? | 15:12 |
| ChogyDan | iceroot: I pointed him to the grub2 page that has directions for setting up a chroot | 15:12 |
| ikonia | karmic-koala: depends how it wants to parse it | 15:12 |
| ae86-drifter | remi_, i am setting up lirc now, i had to upgrade to kernel 2.6.35 for the driver to work | 15:12 |

| hackFr0sT | hi there :) | 15:14 |
| murlidhar | the update manager has downloaded the newest kernel but i don't see that on my grub2 ...n sudo update-grub2 doesn't seem to find the new kernel image | 15:14 |
| karmic-koala | ikonia, the question perhaps is not which method is best but which one is possible | 15:14 |

| gaberlunzie | @chogydan @iceroot that was the 1st part of the chroot method in the grub2 help | 15:15 |
| foxjazz | karmic-koala: I don't see a problem, write it in c# it's probably easiest. otherwise use php and mysql for your db | 15:15 |
| iceroot | gaberlunzie: please dont use @ | 15:15 |
| Jonathan_L | How can I unmount the Windows partition so that I can resize it!? | 15:15 |
| remi_ | ae86-drifter, but its not showing my device | 15:15 |
| Oer | scarleo, use this tool to determinate the problem, open terminal: ubuntu-bug audio | 15:15 |
| ikonia | karmic-koala: err, both are possible, your telling me the application can do both, so both are possible | 15:15 |
| Jonathan_L | I want to do this in GParted, because AFAIK the installer don't have those kind of advanced features I need | 15:16 |
| gaberlunzie | iceroot: i'll use the colon instead, like i see other using ... sorry | 15:16 |
| beefncheese | so noone can help me with using noapic in grub 2 ive refered to the documentation and am still lost | 15:16 |
| gaberlunzie | iceroot: not familiar with irc | 15:16 |
| murlidhar | if you on ubuntu ..open nautilus and on the left hand panel of the file manager there should be an icon... press it. or right click to find the option of unmounting. | 15:16 |
| murlidhar | Jonathan_L: !! | 15:16 |
| Jonathan_L | murlidhar: Don't work. | 15:17 |

| ssseee_ | Dr_wills: Can i check md5 in installation? | 15:55 |
| ChogyDan | gaberlunzie: (from that error message) | 15:55 |
| Dr_Willis | ssseee_: the installer menu i belive has a 'check disk for errors' item. | 15:55 |
| xbonesx | littlebearz: its a "something" that lets you connect to the root of a palm pre | 15:55 |
| Dr_Willis | ssseee_: or the grub menu, or some menu.. befor you start installing | 15:55 |
| freaky[t] | erUSUL, ok thank you :) | 15:55 |

| Incarus | usuario, define not working, you can not edit the file? | 16:19 |
| ZykoticK9_ | uLinux, just to be clear. "sudo modprobe [module]" would Load the module while "rmmod" or the "...-r" would Remove | 16:19 |
| undecim | preetam: Alright in the terminal, type "sudo service network-manager stop". This will stop the network manager service, so if you get disconnected from the ethernet, you will need to run "sudo service network-manager start" in order to connect again. | 16:19 |

| undecim | preetam: Maybe this whole time it's just the network manager hasn't been running. Run "sudo service network-manager start" and see if wifi works. | 16:22 |
| uLinux | ZykoticK9_: my "problem" is that after loading the module lm-sensors show Core 0 and Core 1 but the temperature is always the same. it's not reading correctly | 16:22 |
| acu | tensorpudding, no - they are just very low resolution | 16:23 |
| uLinux | ZykoticK9_: so i wanted to remove | 16:23 |

| soreau | Hey guys can anyone tell me how to guarantee the confirmation dialog for gnome-display-properties appears on-screen? I am trying to disable the second monitor but the confirmation dialog is nowhere to be found and other windows are barely on the edge of the screen. Then I click Apply and Close, but the screen goes back after 15 seconds because the confirmation dialog is nowhere to click on | 16:23 |
| preetam | undecim after sudo service network-manager start i got this message "network-manager start/running, process 2981" | 16:23 |
| undecim | preetam: Does wifi work? | 16:24 |
| ssseee_ | Dr_Willis: hi again, ı check md5 on live cd, and it's corret. | 16:24 |
| acu | tensorpudding, I think the images are streched - I just download the image and compare it with the one on site - they are streched | 16:24 |
| preetam | undecim no wifi is still not working. | 16:24 |
| * soreau just uses xrandr already | 16:24 | |
| undecim | soreau: Lol, I was about to suggest that | 16:24 |
| acu | tensorpudding, what is the problem ? | 16:24 |
| soreau | I figured gnome-display-properties would be smarter than this | 16:24 |
| ZykoticK9_ | uLinux, i don't really use lmsensors - do you know what the module's name is? does it show up in "lsmod"? | 16:24 |
| undecim | preetam: Okay, lets run the stop command again then. | 16:25 |
| Asad2005 | No rendering method in use (AIGLX, Xgl or Nvidia) how do i enable that in 10.10 | 16:25 |

| marccc^ | does any one know if there is an issue with rt2800 under 10.10 ? | 16:26 |
| soreau | undecim: I have a feeling using xrandr means display settings wont be saved across logins | 16:26 |

| uLinux | ZykoticK9_: maybe it's lm-sensors config file that keeps showing | 16:27 |

| mobius | Most are Ubuntu | 16:28 |
| younder | mobius, netstat | 16:28 |
| ZykoticK9_ | undecim, nm-applet i believe | 16:28 |
| undecim | ZykoticK9_: No, I mean the daemon, not the client | 16:29 |
| younder | undecim, iptables then | 16:29 |
| hoare | guys on ubuntu, when you run "top" and press q, does it still appear on your screen above the prompt line? or it gets disappeared? | 16:29 |
| undecim | younder: No, definitely not iptables | 16:29 |

| === Android001|busy is now known as Android001|afk | ||
| mobius | younder: maybe i should elaborate, something that is more like a wrapper around netstat and uptime/cpuload | 16:30 |
| undecim | younder: iptables is not the service that interfaces with nm-applet | 16:30 |
| erUSUL | mobius: ntop? | 16:30 |
| undecim | preetam: See if this command works: "sudo network-manager --no-daemon" | 16:30 |
| younder | undecim, perhaps you should get the book Linux firewalls by Michael Rash on iptables PSAD and FWSNORT | 16:31 |
| preetam | undecim i got this message "sudo: network-manager: command not found" | 16:31 |
| ZykoticK9_ | undecim, it's nm-applet - the daemon as well | 16:31 |
| undecim | younder: I don't think you understand what I'm looking for | 16:31 |
| undecim | ZykoticK9_: really? That's weird | 16:31 |
| tacomaster | really sorry to bug you all about this but i dont want to type something in with out knowing what it mean it goes in "/etc/fstab" and its suppost to be for security "tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults,ro 0 0" | 16:31 |
| younder | undecim, that is correct | 16:32 |
| younder | undecim, could you elaborate.. | 16:33 |
| jg47hm | how to open .bin files? | 16:33 |
| undecim | preetam: Okay, try "sudo NetworkManager --no-daemon" | 16:33 |
| ZykoticK9_ | jg47hm, bin for binary, or bin for cd-image? | 16:33 |
| undecim | preetam: capitalization is important | 16:33 |
| undecim | younder: I was looking for the name of the binary that interfaces with the nm-applet | 16:34 |
| mobius | SNMP seems to be what I am looking for | 16:34 |
| jg47hm | <ZykoticK9_> bin for binary | 16:34 |
| younder | no it isn't | 16:34 |
| tacomaster | does anyone know what that command does? | 16:34 |
| ZykoticK9_ | jg47hm, for binaries "chmod +x FILENAME" then "./FILENAME" | 16:34 |
| uLinux | terminal bell still not working, does somebody know a fix? | 16:34 |
| undecim | younder: I figured I'd just install it on my system, and found it is "NetworkManager" | 16:34 |
| y-pwn | i have a little problem | 16:34 |
| preetam | undecim yes the sudo NetworkManager --no-daemon the command ran | 16:34 |

| younder | undecim, but you really should learn Perl | 16:36 |
| y-pwn | and i have too many partitions (this would take a long time partitioning them again) | 16:36 |
| undecim | y-pwn: If you want to try it out, you can just use the live cd. There is an option to try it without installing | 16:36 |
| jg47hm | <ZykoticK9_> can you explain me in more details because am amateur???? | 16:36 |

| y-pwn | undecim: ok, then i'm removing wubi | 16:37 |
| tacomaster | does anyone know what "tmpfs /dec/shm tmpfs defaults,ro 0 0" in "/etc/fstab" does? | 16:37 |
| ZykoticK9_ | jg47hm, open a terminal for these commands. Do you know how to "cd" to where the file is located? | 16:37 |
| preetam | undecim please check the output at http://paste.ubuntu.com/511734/. | 16:37 |
| jg47hm | <ZykoticK9_> in downloads | 16:38 |
| ZykoticK9_ | jg47hm, in Downloads probably, case is important! | 16:38 |
| JoeMaverickSett | ZykoticK9_: for .bin files, can't we just right click make this as executeable and double click after that? | 16:38 |
| undecim | preetam: Has this problem persisted even after rebooting? | 16:38 |
| y-pwn | So, the error message is something like this in original: "Корневая файловая система не определена. Исправьте это из меню разметки." | 16:38 |

| ikonia | linenoise: please stop, | 17:10 |
| linenoise | sniperjo: you can do it | 17:10 |
| ikonia | linenoise: calm down and help out, | 17:10 |
| Desca | hikenboot, Scunizi, thanks. Didn't think about that. I'll try it. | 17:10 |
| linenoise | sniperjo: hold a sec | 17:10 |
| Cyberkilla | JoeSomebody: What are you trying to do? Check for bad sectors? | 17:11 |
| Scunizi | Desca: you have to stop the vm.. and make the changes in the vbox settings | 17:11 |
| KillGuta | Guys, what was that partition managing tool? | 17:11 |
| JoeSomebody | Cyberkilla yes | 17:11 |
| tensorpudding | what is this about a 4GB size limit in Linux? | 17:11 |
| KillGuta | The one without an GUI | 17:11 |
| undecim | preetam | 17:11 |
| SeRVeR01 | KillGuta, Gparted maybe | 17:11 |
| Desca | Scunizi, indeed I do. I'll return if I have anything else | 17:11 |
| hikenboot | anyone know if there is a way to export a device to the virtual machine...ie tell ubuntu to always ignore the device? | 17:11 |
| Cyberkilla | I found this link: http://tips4linux.com/scan-for-bad-sectors-in-linux/ | 17:11 |
| linenoise | sniperjo: you can use split | 17:11 |
| ikonia | KillGuta: gparted for gui, parted or fdisk without | 17:11 |
| y-pwn | 1. the wubi didn't work | 17:11 |
| sniperjo | linenoise: ive just done it twice and got the same error, i know i can do it straight to another drive but i really want to put it into a file | 17:11 |
| undecim | preetam: You there? | 17:11 |
| y-pwn | 2. now that | 17:11 |
| Cyberkilla | JoeSomebody: http://tips4linux.com/scan-for-bad-sectors-in-linux/ | 17:11 |
| JoeSomebody | ok thanks | 17:11 |
| tensorpudding | Pretty sure that ext4 allows files a lot bigger than that | 17:11 |
| ikonia | tensorpudding: over 1 TB in ext4 | 17:11 |
| tensorpudding | ext3 too | 17:12 |
| linenoise | sniperjo: ahh..... probably can't do a single file | 17:12 |
| y-pwn | so, guys, can you help me | 17:12 |
| ikonia | y-pwn: what's up ? | 17:12 |
| Cyberkilla | JoeSomebody: I haven't tried it myself, but it seems to be what you're after. There is a graphical utility to check your hard disk too. It may detect bad sectors (it says my HDD has none). | 17:12 |
| y-pwn | is there a different way to install it | 17:12 |
| linenoise | sniperjo: if you can stand having it split, it can be done, but otherwise, you may need a different fs (it's an ext issue I believe) | 17:12 |
| Pici | tensorpudding: What limit are yo asking about. Theres a ~4gb ram limit for 32 bit, but thats across platforms (barring PAE of course) | 17:12 |
| ikonia | y-pwn: install what ? | 17:12 |
| linenoise | ikonia: I will answer questions how I like. Boot me. It's what I expect from this community. | 17:12 |
| y-pwn | ikonia: setup utility on 10.10 doesn't recognize my partitions | 17:12 |
| y-pwn | http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=257hjef&s=7 | 17:12 |
| undecim | y-pwn: open a terminal and type "ls /dev/sd*", and paste the list you see. | 17:12 |
| sniperjo | linenoise: actually ill rephrase that, multiple files is fine, i just dont want to re | 17:12 |
| sniperjo | 17:12 | |
| y-pwn | ok | 17:13 |
| ikonia | linenoise: no-one wants to boot you, please just try to focus on resolving th ubuntu issues | 17:13 |
| soreau | $ gnome-panel \n bash: /usr/bin/gnome-panel: Permission denied <-- ?? | 17:13 |
| Cyberkilla | JoeSomebody: I think it's called Disk Utility, under System/Administration on the menu. | 17:13 |

| y-pwn | ikonia: no | 17:13 |
| undecim | y-pwn: Or just type it out on one like here | 17:13 |
| tiox | Thanks for quotes, undecim. | 17:13 |
| soreau | oh no wonder | 17:13 |
| y-pwn | http://paste.ubuntu.com/511759/ | 17:13 |
| gilaniali | if i download and install a package using apt-get, can I look at the software's code? | 17:13 |
| soreau | it's supposed to be gnome-terminal :) | 17:13 |
| tiox | People typing terminal commands should to that more often. | 17:13 |
| ikonia | linenoise: then you'll be offtopic, so please don't | 17:13 |
| Ulkesh | JoeSomebody: you can also run a "fsck -c drive/partition/to/check" command to check for bad sectors. | 17:13 |
| undecim | tiox: What? | 17:13 |
| Dr_Willis | gilaniali: theres src packages you can get. | 17:14 |
| y-pwn | hmm | 17:14 |
| ikonia | y-pwn: just looking now | 17:14 |
| linenoise | ikonia: how can it be off topic when someone asks me? | 17:14 |
| suraj | L551, Use battery setting for making it default | 17:14 |
| shauno | gilaniali: if you have deb-src lines in your sources.list, just apt-get source packagename should work | 17:14 |
| y-pwn | ikonia: ok, thx | 17:14 |
| tiox | Just saying, people typing terminal commands here should differentiate them/. | 17:14 |
| ikonia | linenoise: because this channel is for ubuntu support only, not general linux questions | 17:14 |
| tiox | Like what you did the with the quotes, I knwo I must type everything within the quotes. :P | 17:14 |
| tiox | know* | 17:14 |
| linenoise | ikonia: it's support to describe how a distro differs from the one you are using, especially if that distro doesn't have the same problems you're seeing. | 17:14 |
| ikonia | y-pwn: it can see 2 disks in there - what's the problem ? | 17:14 |
| undecim | tiox: Oh, lol | 17:14 |
| gilaniali | Dr_Willis: where do I get them? | 17:14 |
| y-pwn | ikonia: yeah but | 17:15 |
| y-pwn | it will erase on of them | 17:15 |
| linenoise | ikonia: Are you seriously going to argue that I can't compare distros? | 17:15 |
| y-pwn | if i press install | 17:15 |
| ikonia | linenoise: not at all, | 17:15 |
| linenoise | you know... fuck it... this place has taken the piss so hard I can't even care... | 17:15 |
| tensorpudding | this channel isn't for bickering, could you have the metadiscussion move elsewhere? | 17:15 |
| flaggy | hello. I'm helping out a friend. He's unable to use his nic or wireless card. We think we found a solution, but he'll need to install a few packages. Is there a ubuntu DVD or other cds that include additional packages? In special build-essential and its dependencies? | 17:15 |
| Cyberkilla | linenoise: Hey, grow up. | 17:15 |
| LordDragon | ikonia, it seems that linenoise is just here to be confrontational and stir up issues | 17:15 |
| y-pwn | The disk utility can see them | 17:15 |
| y-pwn | And the terminal | 17:15 |
| Pici | !enter | y-pwn | 17:15 |
| ubottu | y-pwn: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 17:15 |
| undecim | y-pwn: Did you try "ls /dev/sd*"? | 17:15 |
| gilaniali | shauno: if a software is installed not from ubuntus repository but still using apt-get after changing the sources file, can I still use apt-get source? | 17:15 |
| undecim | y-pwn: In the terminal | 17:16 |
| y-pwn | undecim, yes | 17:16 |
| y-pwn | http://paste.ubuntu.com/511759/ | 17:16 |
| ikonia | y-pwn: the disk install can see them | 17:16 |
| ikonia | y-pwn: I don't understand what your saying the problem is, there are two disks there | 17:16 |
| y-pwn | ikonia: really? how can I install it on a particular partition | 17:16 |
| shauno | gilaniali: that'd depend if the repository the package came from provides source packages | 17:16 |
| undecim | y-pwn: Does the disk util say anything about the partition table of sda1? | 17:16 |
| y-pwn | The "Ubuntu1010" ext4 one, on my prefer | 17:16 |
| Cyberkilla | This channel is a nightmare to follow in irssi lately : ) | 17:17 |
| ikonia | y-pwn: you need to create a partition on sda, or you need to ccreate a new partitoin on sdb | 17:17 |
| ikonia | y-pwn: you can't use the existing NTFS partitions | 17:17 |
| sipior | Cyberkilla: always busy right after a release, of course. | 17:17 |
| tiox | Aha. | 17:17 |
| undecim | ikonia: He has an ext4 patition on sda5 | 17:17 |
| y-pwn | undecim: no, it doesn't say anything | 17:17 |
| undecim | ikonia: Look at the disk util in the image he posted | 17:17 |
| * tiox just smiles and watches the discussion | 17:17 | |
| ikonia | undecim: then what's the problem | 17:17 |
| ikonia | am I missing something ? | 17:17 |
| undecim | ikonia: The installer doesn't see it. | 17:17 |
| gilaniali | shauno: so if it doesnt, i would have to decompile the code? and being probably written in C, it would be nearly impossible. | 17:17 |
| Cyberkilla | sipior: I forgot about that! :-P | 17:18 |
| ikonia | undecim: how do you know he has a partition then | 17:18 |
| uLinux | can someone explain the Public folder? is it to share files between diferent users? | 17:18 |
| undecim | ikonia: This disk utility sees it | 17:18 |
| y-pwn | i included a screenshot | 17:18 |
| ikonia | undecim: which one ? | 17:18 |

| undecim | ikonia: The one in the image he posted | 17:18 |
| ikonia | undecim: the one in the image doesn't show anything under sda | 17:18 |
| sniperjo | can you install packages on a liveUSB ? | 17:18 |
| JoeSomebody | Cyberkilla - smartctl failed to open the device hda, this is bad huh | 17:18 |
| shauno | gilaniali: if they don't have source packages, I'd hit their website to see if they provide sources. If they don't (which is very rare, usually only commercial apps), then yes .. you start getting stuck in awkward places :) | 17:18 |
| Dr_Willis | gilaniali: most code to things you are going to be using are going to be available. | 17:19 |
| undecim | ikonia: Look at the DISK UTILITY, not the installer | 17:19 |
| y-pwn | When I click on my partition: it says | 17:19 |
| ikonia | undecim: ahh I see it | 17:19 |
| ikonia | undecim: it's a HPFS partition type | 17:19 |
| y-pwn | Device: /dev/sda5 | 17:19 |
| Desca | Scunizi, hikenboot, thanks for your tip. That solved the issue. | 17:19 |
| uLinux | (simple questions dont get answered) | 17:19 |
| y-pwn | So hmm | 17:19 |
| ikonia | hang on | 17:19 |

| callumacrae | It recommends me downloading the 32bit version, but if I support 64 bit should I get the 64 bit version? | 17:20 |
| Dr_Willis | callumacrae: if you have a 64bit machine.. then try the 64bit vbersion | 17:20 |
| uLinux | Dr_Willis: tks but that is for 10.04 :p | 17:21 |
| aeon-ltd | callumacrae: only if you want to, its your choice really | 17:21 |

| flaggy | hello. I'm helping out a friend. He's unable to use his nic or wireless card. We think we found a solution, but he'll need to install a few packages. Is there a ubuntu DVD or other cds that include additional packages? In special build-essential and its dependencies? | 17:21 |

| y-pwn | undecim, ikonia, ok, thank you for your support, i will try the text mode setup | 17:21 |
| Dr_Willis | ben_q: you are the 2nd person ive heard of having an issue.. I dont see the issue here.. whats your video card? | 17:22 |

| cdavis | I installed 10.10 today. I am trying to chmod +x a file on a usb stick and it fails to do anything? | 17:22 |

| Dr_Willis | cdavis: what filesystem is this on? ntfs/vfat? if so that may be the reason. | 17:26 |
| Cyberkilla | JoeSomebody: You probably need to have root privileges to do it. Also, as you're dealing with entire drives here, I think you need sda rather than sda1. | 17:26 |
| Toftevall | How do I get 10.4 to find my network card again? It worked before but know I cant even find the hardware. | 17:26 |

| AbhiJit | LorgonJortle, when you complete the procedure of installing grub2 then at the end in the same processs you have to do sudo update-grub | 17:38 |
| Scunizi | Toftevall: sudo lshw > /home/<username>/Desktop/HardwareList.txt | 17:38 |
| Kyle__ | jpds: It's amazing how crazy the system behaves if you try and do things while it's updating to a new release :) | 17:38 |

| LorgonJortle | I just want to get GRUB working. | 17:45 |
| shizack | yes. want to try before committing. | 17:45 |
| Dr_Willis | shizack: you may not want to be using WUBI and a external hd.. You can do a full 'normal' install to a external USB hd. but at the last dialog. theres a button you need to use to tell it to isntall teh bootloader to the external HD. NOT the internal drives. | 17:45 |
| tuxifier | probably a bad copy? | 17:45 |

| sebsebseb | netcitizen: Wubi seems to get some sort of issues for all the releases so far | 17:48 |
| mod | is that it? | 17:48 |
| shizack | it actually ran a couple of times after wubi install, but crashed. after hard reset never worked again. | 17:48 |
| netcitizen | sebsebseb: wubi was fine for my lucid | 17:48 |
| deeeed | seems to be relative to ia-32 libs | 17:48 |
| alexandru | hello | 17:48 |
| Dr_Willis | mod: Huh? netbook uses the netbook GUI. normal ubuntu uses GNOME | 17:48 |
| Dr_Willis | 'wubi is an issue' :) | 17:49 |
| sebsebseb | shizack: a Live bootable CD is a great way to test any Linux distro, and there are many to choose from, not even this site has them all http://www.distrowatch.com you would mainly be wanting to boot from a CD before deciding to install or not, to make sure things are ok hardwarewise | 17:49 |
| mod | Dr_Willis, um.. GNOME is a window manger.. | 17:49 |
| mod | so, I'm guessing the answer is yes | 17:49 |
| Dr_Willis | mod: gnome is a 'desktop enviroment' that uses metacity or compiz as its window manager. | 17:49 |
| mod | is the netbook GUI build ontop of GNOME? | 17:49 |
| pianoboy3333 | hey, I'm having an issue with getting the nvidia driver to work -- my X got reconfigured. Last time I had this problem ubuntu was using the driver from an earlier kernel. nvidia-xconfig does not work nor does nvidia-settings. | 17:49 |
| elb0w | Has anyone else had issues after recent updates with 10.04 that the login screen is not appearing in GNOME? | 17:50 |
| Dr_Willis | mod: ubuntu netbook is using gnome with a different window manager, and default desktop icon/tools. | 17:50 |
| mod | hmm | 17:50 |
| sebsebseb | mod: also there are lot of Ubuntu only changes in the Gnome, mainly with 10.04 and 10.10, but started happening with 9.04 and 9.10 | 17:50 |
| ganeshran | hi if i have two internet connections, one on wlan0 and one connected a 3g modem connected through wvidal, which is the default one used for internet traffic? | 17:50 |
| mod | well then if I don't need any compwiz bells and whistles, I might as well use netbook on my regular laptop | 17:50 |
| Dr_Willis | 10.10 changed a lot of stuff in the netbook inteface. you can still get the old netbook interface if you want it. | 17:50 |
| sebsebseb | mod: changes that aren't part of upstream Gnome I mean | 17:50 |
| mod | Dr_Willis is that what you told ReiChan a sec ago? | 17:50 |
| Dr_Willis | mod: i perfer normal gnome. The netbook stuff is annoying. :) | 17:51 |
| mod | i could just load the desktop-ubuntu package? | 17:51 |
| tuxifier | elb0w: my splash screen is in text mode. how bout yours? | 17:51 |
| Dr_Willis | mod: you can have both installed and select what one to use at the GDM menu. | 17:51 |
| sebsebseb | mod: also the netbook version of 10.10 will be better really since the new user interface | 17:51 |
| mod | well I don't really use the netbook stuff on the netbook | 17:51 |
| mod | :) | 17:51 |
| elb0w | tuxifier, I cannot even get a login screen. This is the second system this happened to. Im scared to reboot my machine now | 17:51 |

| ubottu | mod: lubuntu is a project to create a derivative of Ubuntu using the LXDE desktop environment. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu | 17:51 |
| Dr_Willis | mod: that would be 'lubuntu' but thats not officially supported yet i think. | 17:52 |
| tuxifier | before login screen what do you get? | 17:52 |
| mod | i only use my laptop for development and web browsing | 17:52 |
| ubuntu | Hello | 17:52 |

| Dr_Willis | mod: then why are you worried about the ram and gpu... :) | 17:52 |
| mod | Dr_Willis, ok well then netbook should do fine for me then? | 17:52 |
| sebsebseb | mod: what kind of development ? | 17:52 |
| mod | sebsebseb, many kinds :) | 17:52 |

| LorgonJortle | 9.10 upgrade to 1.04 | 17:54 |
| mod | Dr_Willis, I guess the real question is, is it true that with netbook over desktop I will be using less resources out of the box but still have all access to user-based functionality .... for example I could install Eclipse directly from eclipse.org without having to go through crazy steps of getting netbook ubuntu ready for it? | 17:54 |
| mechprog | but after few minutes it becomes static nothing works | 17:54 |
| LorgonJortle | 10.04 LTS | 17:54 |
| Dr_Willis | LorgonJortle: so you may be using grub1 or grub2.. | 17:54 |
| ubuntu | Upgrade is too much for download stuff, kind of 1GB instead of the usually 656MB on cd | 17:54 |
| LorgonJortle | I was using grub1, I reckon'. | 17:54 |
| sebsebseb | Dr_Willis: if it was a clean install of 9.10 to begin with, then Grub 2 | 17:54 |
| Dr_Willis | mod: you can isntall things on netbook same as you do the desktop/ | 17:54 |

| pianoboy3333 | hey, I'm having an issue with getting the nvidia driver to work -- my X got reconfigured. Last time I had this problem ubuntu was using the driver from an earlier kernel. nvidia-xconfig does not work nor does nvidia-settings. how do I make sure my computer is loading the right nvidia driver? | 18:03 |
| Memnoch | elb0w maybe system updates should be done on a test system instead of a production environment then huh? | 18:03 |
| Mac_User | undecim: it's firmware is Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (5.10.91.27) | 18:03 |

| elb0w | Memnoch, these are personal machines used for development. The prods have updates off | 18:04 |

| Primedaeth | shcherbak? | 18:08 |
| shcherbak | Primedaeth, so use text mode (no x), you can pretty much fix all from console, press e in grub and add text option. if it fails try live cd | 18:08 |
| cntb | here is the contents of grub.cfg http://pastebin.com/0RKMy7pM | 18:08 |
| Nukeador | Is there any plans to localize ubunut.com site? If so, where should I get more information about it? | 18:08 |

| Primedaeth | I added the text option and now it's asking for login and password. I know my pass -.-, but have no idea what it wants for the login.. | 18:11 |
| y-pwn | i will delete all other partitions, maybe with less of them, i will get the result | 18:11 |

| Primedaeth | shcherbak: Excuse my complete ignorance. | 18:15 |
| praxis | Does anyone here know anything about Steam for Linux? | 18:15 |

| routebee | my keypad is moving my mouse for some reason... what do i do to get the numbers back? | 18:18 |
| shcherbak | Primedaeth, one is sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg, but before try xinit -- :1 vt7, search for broken instalations and kernel and system logs should show whats wrong | 18:18 |

| FrozenFire | Is there an equivalent of the "ClickLock" functionality that exists for Windows? That is, a setting which causes single clicks of the mouse buttons to toggle that mouse button, rather than having each click be a full click->release action. | 18:51 |
| shcherbak | Primedaeth, well there is some thing going on with Ati drivers and plymouth (graphic loader) to fix it try google: tux idillic life | 18:51 |

| Primedaeth | I know I should have gotten an nVidia Card. =-p | 18:52 |
| Primedaeth | The only time I broke Linux on my laptop was when it fell and HDD popped out. | 18:52 |
| shcherbak | Primedaeth, same problem plus overheating | 18:52 |
| Primedaeth | That is one thing too, I have no sensors. | 18:52 |
| Primedaeth | absolutely none. | 18:53 |
| Primedaeth | I tried installing every damn sensor package I could find. | 18:53 |
| y-pwn | wow, my PC really flies with 10.10 | 18:53 |
| blocky | I've enabled twinview + xinerama on 10.04 with nvidia on my laptop and my mouse is stuck on the primary screen | 18:53 |
| Dr_Willis | FrozenFire: theres some 'access' features that are similer to that for disabled people.. but ive never used them | 18:53 |
| y-pwn | i don't have any problems with drivers | 18:53 |
| y-pwn | graphics, network, sound... | 18:53 |
| blocky | If it matters, my secondary display is above the first, not to the side | 18:53 |
| y-pwn | all is fine | 18:54 |
| Dr_Willis | blocky: you enable twinview. it supercedes xinerama, and dont use the 'seperate X screen' setting | 18:54 |
| y-pwn | and i use integrated graphics! | 18:54 |
| Scunizi | blocky: why are you using xinerama? | 18:54 |
| shcherbak | Primedaeth, check your laptop type on bug forums, Id rather keep version back on working machine, and use spare on for experiments | 18:55 |
| Dr_Willis | blocky: also to get it working 100%$ properly - you will need to save the settings to the xorg.conf and restart the X server. if you just 'apply' the settings - it can confuse some programs that are allready ruynning | 18:55 |
| laeg | my top panel has frozen with the application menu stuck open, can i reload x/gnome from terminal? or even log out and back in? | 18:55 |
| Primedaeth | My desktop is the one having issues at the moment, laptop is fine. | 18:55 |
| blocky | When I enable twinview without xinerama I get the taskbar and menu on both screens, and I have been saving to my xorg.conf and restarting gdm | 18:55 |
| Primedaeth | HDD popped out while it was reading a whiel ago and so many errors. I was sadface. | 18:55 |
| Scunizi | blocky: to add to what Dr_Willis says.. you'll need to start nvidia-settings with sudo from cli to save the xorg.conf | 18:55 |
| Dr_Willis | laeg: try hitting the escape key a few times.. if all else fails.. try alt-ctrl-f1. login and do 'sudo service gdm restart' | 18:55 |
| blocky | actually gksudo prompts me | 18:56 |
| Dr_Willis | Scunizi: actually i THINK its been fixed now where it asks for root password when you start it up. :) | 18:56 |
| shcherbak | Primedaeth, my second laptop got melted nvidia ;) | 18:56 |
| blocky | what is the correct way to stretch my desktop across multiple displays then? disable xinerama and set twinview? | 18:56 |
| Scunizi | blocky: true.. gksudo is correct.. as for the task bar.. there are different settings for twinview.. clone is not what you want | 18:56 |
| Dr_Willis | blocky: remeber that a USER can also run nvidia settings and change some things so youy can alter the res and a few settings on a per user basix | 18:56 |
| santote | Hola! | 18:57 |
| Scunizi | Dr_Willis: per user & per boot | 18:57 |
| Dr_Willis | blocky: twinview is nviodias replacement to xinerams. You dont want to use xinerama at all. actually from what i see in the tool. You cant enable both. :) | 18:57 |
| gantry | I began the upgrade to Ubuntu 10.10 using the Update Manager. During this time, I went walked away from the computer and the monitor's power saver mode has come on. Now it doesn't seem to recognize the mouse or keyboard so I can't wake the computer. | 18:57 |
| gantry | Is there a way I can ssh in and see if the upgrade is complete? | 18:57 |

| shcherbak | gantry, or you can just ssh and wait when it is idle and check version | 19:00 |
| blocky | well look at that, it's working now, except my menu/taskbar are on the wrong screen. anyone know how to correct that without restarting x? | 19:00 |
| Dr_Willis | blocky: its a setting in the nvidia-settings tool to check what is the primary monitor | 19:01 |
| Dr_Willis | blocky: or alt-click, on them and drag them over. | 19:01 |
| Dr_Willis | blocky: i put a panel on each monuitor. :) | 19:01 |
| gantry | shcherbak, how do I check the version? | 19:01 |
| laeg | Dr_Willis: escape a few times didn't work, and sudo gdm restart brought up a black screen with some text, the last of which was 'checking battery state...' which it seemed to stick on so i just pressed the power button! :) ty anyway | 19:02 |
| gantry | shcherbak, and is the version only updated once it is ready to be rebooted? | 19:02 |

| Jordan_U | Brandon123456: "b43-fwcutter", and no it will not install the b43 driver from 10.04 (it doesn't even actually install a driver at all, but that's not important). YOu'll also need to remove / disable the proprietary driver in System > Administration > Hardware Drivers | 20:22 |

| allex_ | ActionParsnip... I've seen that somewhere before..Launchpad?lol | 20:23 |
| Brandon123456 | Jordan_U, so I will first do "sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter", then disable the one I'm using now, then enable the freshly installed one? | 20:23 |

| Jordan_U | Brandon123456: Yes, in fact there should already be two options in Hardware Drivers, selecting b43 will install the b43-fwcutter package if you don't already have it installed. | 20:24 |

| dwood | aphid: thx. didn't know if there weren't some system housekeeping processes that depend on a mailer being around. feel like I've seen that before. | 21:15 |
| ikonia | bdbdbd: it can't run a test (compile test) as it fails to build the test, however I'd expect that's because your missing the glibc headers and development libraries | 21:16 |
| iner-68 | <ArtArfon> /bin/sh: sudo: not found | 21:16 |
| blocky | anybody ever used jack with the line6usb driver for realtime guitar processing? what does it mean when jack locks up after a bunch of xrun errors | 21:16 |

| ikonia | bdbdbd: libc is on the system, but the development libc libraries and headers are seperate packagews | 21:16 |
| ikonia | packages | 21:17 |
| ArtArfon | iner-68: And at what stage are you doing this... priv instead. | 21:17 |

| iner-68 | <ArtArfon> just turned on the computer ... getting the prompt with the prefix (initramfs) | 21:17 |

| coz_ | babu__, right click a photo go to properties and the OPen with tab and choose picassa | 21:18 |
| ikonia | bdbdbd: why ? | 21:18 |
| dwood | looks like it's something called gdomap hmm.... | 21:18 |
| bdbdbd | its a VPS | 21:18 |
| ikonia | bdbdbd: use apt-cache | 21:19 |
| ArtArfon | iner-68: Private chat that is. | 21:19 |

| bigbadjesus | or how can I install that version on 10.10? | 21:19 |
| dwood | bigbadjesus: what are you trying to do - deal with an unsupported adapter? | 21:19 |

| harovali | hi , is there a GUI tool I can use to administer iptables rules ? | 21:23 |
| coz_ | aphid, mmm that is not good. you installed this with live cd? | 21:23 |
| bdbdbd | ikonia? | 21:23 |
| Pici | harovali: gufw | 21:24 |
| aphid | coz_: no, distribution upgrade | 21:24 |
| dwood | bigbadjesus: I see. it works but you want to do injection. | 21:24 |
| dwood | I was googling around | 21:24 |
| Scunizi | babu__: I don't have an answer except to look at the launcher (where ever that is) and see if there is a picasa specific switch that will change the opening of picasa from edit mode to view mode.. If you haven't already discovered it, you might also try another application called digikam which is as fully capable as picasa, runs natively and also offers more options. It will also export to google photo, flickr, facebook and many others. | 21:24 |
| coz_ | aphid, mm ...out of curiosity ...which video card do you have? | 21:24 |
| dwood | i have a similar adapter but diff. | 21:24 |
| aphid | coz_: it's a netbook, so something crappy :D | 21:24 |
| bigbadjesus | it worked on 10.04, I just want to find the relevant package or determine if there isn't one yet for 10.10 | 21:24 |
| dwood | see some ppl not installing packages at all, but building drivers from source from aircrack-ng | 21:24 |
| Scunizi | babu__: digikam is in the repo's and is easily installable with .. sudo apt-get install digikam | 21:25 |
| bigbadjesus | yeah, I tried that but didn't have luck. I suppose I can attempt it again. the package install was painless | 21:25 |
| coz_ | aphid, can you alt+F2 on the desktop that has no menu? | 21:25 |
| dwood | shame | 21:25 |
| rlankfo | how can i search the repos for a filename? i saw some obsolete documentation for 'apt-file search filename' | 21:25 |
| pianoboy3333 | hey, I'm having an issue with getting the nvidia driver to work -- my X got reconfigured. Last time I had this problem ubuntu was using the driver from an earlier kernel. nvidia-xconfig does not work nor does nvidia-settings. how do I make sure my computer is loading the right nvidia driver? | 21:25 |
| rlankfo | but doesn't seem to work anymore | 21:25 |
| Diverdude | why is adobe acrobat reader so extremely slow and laggy in ubuntu? | 21:25 |
| dwood | yeah, it's not something I've done myself | 21:26 |
| Scunizi | rlankfo: apt-cache search <name> .. the less specific the more results. | 21:26 |
| dwood | def. need a maverick-specific package | 21:26 |
| dwood | if one exists | 21:26 |
| dwood | if you searched the repositories already | 21:26 |
| dwood | most likely not | 21:26 |
| coz_ | Diverdude, well my explanation is that adobe reader is WAY to bloated on any system to be worth using | 21:26 |
| rlankfo | Scunizi: i believe that only searches package name though and not files contained in packages, correct? | 21:26 |
| aphid | coz_: no but I can bring up the restart/shutdown/suspend/hibernate thing | 21:26 |
| bdbdbd | please help: http://codepad.org/Axx7Ydmo | 21:26 |
| dwood | best bet, email the maintainer of linux-backports-modules-wireless-lucid-generic | 21:26 |
| Scunizi | rlankfo: nope | 21:26 |
| Scunizi | rlankfo: what are you looking for? | 21:26 |
| rlankfo | Scunizi: ok thanks, i'm looking for cpucycles.h, any idea? | 21:26 |
| coz_ | Diverdude, there are other readers Foxit or okular but olkular willl aslo install kde libs onto the system...if you dont mind that okular is remarkable small footprint and fast | 21:27 |
| Diverdude | coz_, well...Document Viewer is good, but unfortunately a bit ueless since it cannot use network printers it seems | 21:27 |
| coz_ | Diverdude, but foxit is also | 21:27 |
| gigamonk | i'm on my laptop (alienware m5700i-r2) with ubuntu 10.04. i can get sound when i plug in my headphones, but no sound through the built-in speakers.. any ideas? i went through the help documentation on snd-hda-intel, but nothing worked so far | 21:27 |
| rlankfo | Scunizi: what package would contain the kernel source code? | 21:27 |
| Scunizi | rlankfo: sorry no.. what does it do? | 21:27 |
| harovali | Pici: thanks ! | 21:27 |
| coz_ | aphid, ok I am stumped then... I also never run netbook so my little experience is not going to help with this | 21:27 |
| rlankfo | Scunizi: just a C header file | 21:28 |
| coz_ | aphid, stick around and ask again...someone here must have some troubleshooting techniques for this | 21:28 |
| Scunizi | rlankfo: are you cli only? | 21:28 |
| rlankfo | Scunizi: yes | 21:28 |
| ai6pg | gigamonk -> check out System> Administration > Sound | 21:28 |
| aphid | coz_: thanks for the help. need to take off to a meeting so I will ask again when I get back. peace | 21:28 |
| Scunizi | rlankfo: ah.. ok.. you can also use aptitude from cli which will offer search/browse functions within a tree structure.. | 21:29 |
| ai6pg | gigamonk > system-preferences - sound | 21:29 |
| coz_ | aphid, sounds like a plan :) | 21:29 |
| virtu | how can I get a better driver for my soundcard? | 21:29 |
| andre_pl | is it possible to install a few packages from a ppa, but use the regular versions of some other packages that the ppa provides? | 21:29 |
| rlankfo | Scunizi: alright thanks | 21:29 |
| Scunizi | rlankfo: good luck.. | 21:29 |
| trism | rlankfo: you can search the repo for a filename with apt-file, as for cpucycles.h, the only package I found was libpolybori-dev, which without knowing what you're doing, is probably not what you're looking for | 21:29 |
| Grey_Loki | Hi, is there a way to change the growl-like notifications' settings in Ubuntu 10.4? Either built-in, or via a configuration app/file somewhere? | 21:29 |
| ai6pg | gigamonk - then go to Output | 21:29 |
| Royall | can anyone help with this problem http://imgur.com/EQ0JE.png my HDD mounts but the folder is empty | 21:29 |
| rlankfo | trism: you used apt-file to find that? do i need to install apt-file perhaps? | 21:30 |
| coz_ | Grey_Loki, you mean the actual sounds? | 21:30 |
| gigamonk | ai6pg - only one option for sound output "Dummy Output" | 21:30 |
| rlankfo | trism: installing.. | 21:30 |
| === Zeike is now known as brandonj | ||
| trism | rlankfo: yes, install apt-file, then run: sudo apt-file update; and it will download the package information, and let you search with: apt-file search path | 21:30 |
| trism | rlankfo: or list files in uninstalled packages with: apt-file list packagename | 21:30 |
| rlankfo | very nice, thats awesome, thank you trism | 21:30 |
| Grey_Loki | coz_: no, i mean the growl-style notification popups, such as the one that appears when you unplug your laptop's power supply and it notifies you that the battery is discharging. | 21:31 |
| coz_ | Grey_Loki, oh ok ...that one I cant help with sorry | 21:31 |

| wasutton3 | my laptop randomly reboots from time to time. which log files should i be looking at to investigate the problem? | 21:32 |

| sebsebseb | ikonia: yes thats what I thought, that it kicks them off the network, but I didn't know for how long | 21:57 |
| jags | Routers, you should beable to just try and view it in firefox, then it will ask you to install the required plugins and then you pick which one you want | 21:57 |

| Scunizi | Sickler: weird.. did you try sudo /etc/init.d/xdm stop ?? | 21:58 |
| edbian | sanduz2, If the softer is newer it has more bugs and security holes | 21:58 |
| jags | Routers, I had alot of trouble with the 64 bit drivers, but for some reason firefox just knew what to install | 21:58 |
| sanduz2 | hm ok | 21:59 |
| edbian | sanduz2, Servers are supposed to be rock solid stable with as few security vulnerabilities as possible. For this reason people use Debian stable and centOS both of which have "old" packages. | 21:59 |

| rypervenche | guntbert, So it would be a good idea to compile it in a folder some place safe and keep it? | 22:07 |
| bastidrazor | Somelauw: you need to learn some bash scripting before you can accomplish that or some clever aliasing | 22:07 |
| harovali1 | s/mina/mine/ | 22:07 |
| edbian | rypervenche, If you have the binary files you don't need the actual source code any more. Make sure you don't delete some files you didn't compile yet though! | 22:07 |
| rypervenche | edbian, I'm installing bitfighter and it said on the website that I have to compile it for Linux. | 22:07 |

| Somelauw | bastidrazor, I figured out I could use gnome-open :P | 22:08 |

| harovali1 | edbian: what do I have to do or where do I hace to put my script before it ? | 22:08 |
| Firartix | mmmmmh | 22:08 |
| edbian | harovali1, Read man update-rc.d It explains it all. (It actually places the files where they need to be automatically). | 22:09 |

| harovali1 | edbian: thanks | 22:12 |
| sebsebseb | IpSe_DiXiT: ok sounds like Plymouth has messed up after upgrade, the boot up that 10.04 uses, instead of xsplash which 9.10 uses | 22:13 |

| guntbert | AxionStile: did you md5 check the iso? then try with another stick if possible | 22:13 |
| sebsebseb | IpSe_DiXiT: Plymouth in 10.04 also had quite a few issues, because of how they put it into the release, worked better in other distros :) anyway for 10.10 I belive Plymouth is more fixed | 22:14 |

| AxionStile | guntbert: Okay. I'd like to just make a cd burn however, i get an error there too | 22:14 |
| Brandon123456 | Jordan_U, how do I extract it? | 22:15 |
| Jordan_U | Brandon123456: Try running "sudo dpkg-reconfigure b43-fwcutter" | 22:15 |
| Firartix | hmmm hey edbian silly question here..... can you upgrade from regular to LTS ? | 22:15 |
| sebsebseb | IpSe_DiXiT: 10.10 is also a bit more polished compared to 10.04, so I would suggest skipping 10.04, by doing a clean install with 10.10 | 22:15 |
| AxionStile | I'll check the tutorial that tells me how to do a md5 (and the other) check :) | 22:15 |
| Brandon123456 | Jordan_U, why reconfigure? | 22:15 |
| guntbert | AxionStile: and the md5sums match? | 22:15 |

| AxionStile | To be announced.. :) | 22:15 |
| Firartix | forget it XD | 22:15 |
| Jordan_U | Brandon123456: You'll need to be connected to the internet when you run that, and it should prompt you asking if you want it to download and extract the firmware, select yes. | 22:15 |

| edbian | harovali1, Are you sure it isn't there? I'm not sure. I'm used to the old /etc/init.d system. Perhaps it's different now with upstart. | 22:18 |
| ikonia | HesAlwaysNearUs: your windows machine is getting it's ip address by dhcp, you need to do the same with ubuntu, set it to dhcp | 22:18 |

| IpSe_DiXiT | sebsebseb: no it didnt man, i could only log in as root, it wouldnt log as a regular user, then i found out i could by doin "metacity --replace" and understood it was my ati card... but what now? | 22:19 |
| Jordan_U | Brandon123456: I guess the package has changed a bit recently. Try uninstalling b43-fwcutter then going to Hardware Drivers again, if that doesn't work you'll have to download the driver and extract the firmware from it yourself. | 22:19 |

| pianoboy3333 | hey, I'm having an issue with getting the nvidia driver to work -- my X got reconfigured.

| IpSe_DiXiT | sebsebseb: no man, i had 8.10 then i upgraded to 9.10 and then to 10.04 | 22:22 |
| mandara | erUSUL: Thnx. | 22:22 |
| sebsebseb | IpSe_DiXiT: ok 9.10 to 10.04, but did you ever install a graphics card driver for your ATI card? your not sure? well maybe you did, and thats why your boot up now doesn't work | 22:22 |
| Brandon123456 | Jordan_U, where can I download the driver now? | 22:22 |
| Felix | Jordan_U: reffering to this link: http://www.howtoforge.com/creating-a-dual-boot-system-on-raid10-ubuntu-windows droppen dmraid.patch in debian/patch/series | 22:22 |
| guntbert | rypervenche: yes, and it will usually contain files that serve the same purpose as the .conf file | 22:22 |

| sebsebseb | IpSe_DiXiT: there are issues with the 10.04 Plymouth boot up, and propritary Nivida and ATI cards | 22:23 |

I'm able to hear sound crystal clear, just I have no mic output. I've also tested and make sure my mic is working correctly with 'sound recorder' and I have personally watch the levels raise I speak into it.... | 22:23 |
| Laszio | ...I've search google for about a week now and even searched the forums with no success. Any tips and suggestions would be, ultra appreciated! | 22:23 |
| Jordan_U | Brandon123456: Actually, I have the firmware already extracted which you can download here: http://jordanu.dyndns.org/b43-firmware-lucid.tar.gz | 22:24 |
| IpSe_DiXiT | sebsebseb: yeah i think itz the ati card, since with 9.10 as i said i could log in only if "alt+f2 metacity --replace" | 22:24 |
| Jordan_U | Brandon123456: Install it with "sudo tar -xf /path/to/b43-firmware-lucid.tar.gz -C /lib/firmware/" | 22:24 |
| sebsebseb | IpSe_DiXiT: as for 9.10, you should have been able to log in normally really | 22:24 |

| sebsebseb | IpSe_DiXiT: your install is messed up, there isn't much that can be done with it, you may not be able to just fix the issue either, so yep clean install | 22:29 |
| giovanni_ | !list | 22:29 |
| pianoboy3333 | ikonia, I'm not sure. It's possible that I compiled it | 22:29 |
| AxionStile | I did an md5 check and they didn't match up :( so I have to redownload I assume since it is faulty. | 22:29 |
| ikonia | pianoboy3333: that's probably the reason then as it's an unsupported confiugration | 22:29 |
| sebsebseb | IpSe_DiXiT: however taking a guess, you got some data in the install, that you want to get hold of? | 22:29 |

| AxionStile | I installed ubuntu 10.04 using wubi via windows XP | 22:32 |
| ikonia | pianoboy3333: no, as the modules you installed will still be in use | 22:32 |

| IpSe_DiXiT | sebsebseb: i told you, i can completely format the hd, i dont care, there's nothing inside, i just cant manage to make the usbpendrive work, it starts but it gets stuck in splashscreen it as well. recovery mode dunno how to make it work, there's no cd reader, thatz it | 22:32 |
| pianoboy3333 | ikonia, what should I try? | 22:32 |
| AxionStile | I guess since Ubuntu is installed through windows xp.. technically it can't survive without windows? | 22:32 |
| AxionStile | and if this is true, well I just want Ubuntu on my HD then. | 22:32 |

| guntbert | thepeon: what program are you trying to install? | 22:40 |
| softcoder | I think so | 22:40 |
| pianoboy3333 | ikonia, any suggestions? | 22:40 |
| softcoder | Ubuntu does it right (in my opinion) | 22:40 |
| subutux | rohanc: Yeah there are still some nasty bugs in NetworkManager in ubuntu 10.10 | 22:40 |
| Makdaam | w83, or you need to run emerald manually | 22:40 |
| w83 | erUSUL, it worked fine on ubuntu 10.04 | 22:40 |
| Kyle__ | Is there a way to launch the drive-benchmark in "Disk Utility" from the command line? Or to save it's output graph & data? | 22:40 |
| sebsebseb | softcoder: and I can think of other distros that will be better at times, but this is going off topic a little now | 22:40 |
| softcoder | true | 22:40 |

| helplez | just did a fresh install of maverick on a eeepc, unable to set desktop effects | 22:40 |
| ubottu | softcoder: 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. | 22:40 |
| NCS_One | hi | 22:40 |
| Kyle__ | sebsebseb: Yes there is: the one that you're comfortable with, and is stable for what you do with it. ;) | 22:40 |
| Makdaam | w83, just try Alt+F2 and type in emerald | 22:40 |
| softcoder | is 64 as stable as 32 in general? | 22:40 |
| sda1986 | Makdaam, yes, video, or image, or whatever, i want understand if someone can hide program under "normal files" for steal your information like in windows. | 22:40 |

| w83 | Makdaam, I do not use emerald | 22:41 |
| thepeon | guntbert: the .deb wasn't working for me, either | 22:41 |
| sebsebseb | Kyle__: right, but there will be others that may work better for someone, they just haven't tried them, so they don't know | 22:41 |
| NCS_One | is it possible to set a personal message on Empathy ? | 22:41 |
| Kyle__ | sebsebseb: It's a personal thing. | 22:41 |

| Makdaam | w83, well I didn't use the 3d effects for some time, what's the command to run a separate WM with beryl/compiz? | 22:41 |

| Makdaam | sda1986, well you can ask a user to mail the info to you :P | 22:42 |
| Kyle__ | softcoder: Nope. | 22:42 |
| sebsebseb | softcoder: 64bit 10.10 should work ok for you | 22:42 |
| ejv | you clearly haven't been devving long if you have to ask that | 22:42 |
| softcoder | ok, off i go.. thx guys | 22:42 |

| _Valantis_ | i need to install the usb video in a acer netbook with ubuntu | 22:43 |
| Jordan_U | Brandon123456: The firmware hasn't changed since lucid. | 22:43 |
| softcoder | but we had out share of issue in 64 bit over the years | 22:43 |
| rohanc | wthpr0: what would it do? | 22:43 |
| wthpr0 | rohanc: open up the terminal and run: sudo dhclient eth0 | 22:43 |
| softcoder | I have 6 children and 10 linux boxes here | 22:43 |
| ejv | sebsebseb: yea *sigh* | 22:43 |
| sda1986 | Makdaam, maybe they send me a fake img and it start a program for steal my info, or video or whatever... | 22:43 |
| Makdaam | sda1986, both yes and no, depends on your policy towards running things :) | 22:43 |

| thepeon | guntbert: did I see what? | 22:44 |
| DNA_ | hi, most of the time my mouse stops clicking after a while in 10.10, what's causing this? | 22:44 |
| Makdaam | sda1986, there are mechanisms that will protect you from malicious code, by limiting what it can do | 22:45 |
| guntbert | thepeon: the howto in that link | 22:45 |
| w83 | ok thx, I'll play with it, just wanted to make sure that is not a 10.10 bug or sth | 22:45 |
| wthpr0 | rohanc: what it will do is getting you a new IP from the DHCP server it shoud work right after you run the command | 22:45 |

| _Valantis_ | i installed the drivers from here : http://www.avermedia.com/avertv/Product/ProductDetail.aspx?Id=188&tab=APDriver | 22:45 |

| Brandon123456 | ok Jordan_U | 22:46 |
| sda1986 | Makdaam, i saw on a italian tv show, an hacker can hear your microphones or start your webcam, after sent you a fake IMG and i wanted to know if that is possible on ubuntu | 22:46 |
| sebsebseb | Laszio: Paltalk has a Linux version now? | 22:46 |
| Makdaam | sda1986, google AppArmor it's easy in configuration and has some power | 22:46 |

| helplez | can anyone help me troubleshooti= compositing on a fresh 10.10 install? I cant understand why this isn't working | 22:46 |

| jrebelo | Can someone tell me what happens when I connect to Ubuntu via SSH that causes it to inform me of available release upgrades? I have upgraded to Maverick and when I connect via SSH it tells me tto upgrade to 10.10 but I am already running it. | 22:47 |
| wthpr0 | rohanc: it should happen when the OP run but if you have to do that you can just add the coomand to /etc/rc.local and it will run it for you and boot up | 22:48 |
| Brandon123456 | Jordan_U, if I go to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/b43-fwcutter and then click The Maverick Meerkat, will that work? | 22:48 |

| prappl93 | Is it possible in Ubuntu 10.10 to set Evolution to still be connected to your e-mail server while in a "minimized to tray" setting? | 22:48 |
| sebsebseb | Laszio: probably just need to do a bit of confugiring, but sound problems aren't so easy to sort out in Ubuntu, unlike well a few of the other distros it seems. Anyway not my area, so good luck with that. | 22:48 |
| iceroot | jrebelo: output of "cat /etc/issue"? | 22:48 |
| Laszio | Peaec sebsebseb, Paltalk-Express is the Mac and LInux version for now. I'm having mic output problems but, sound and text are clear. | 22:48 |
| Laszio | Peace* | 22:48 |

| Brandon123456 | cuz the download from u aint working (n/o) | 22:49 |
| jrebelo | iceroot: you'll find that every indication is that the upgrade is fine, but only on SSH connection, it thinks it is not | 22:49 |
| jrebelo | iceroot: the update manager says I am all up to date | 22:49 |

| prappl93 | Tater27, Intel seems to work flawlessly | 22:51 |
| iDope | ? | 22:51 |
| sebsebseb | Tater27: for Ubuntu Nivida is uesaully the best, and ATI is useauly the worst it seems, and Intel is in between or something | 22:51 |
| talntid | aloon, what card? | 22:51 |
| Laszio | Peace sebsebseb, I usually would address as: Shalom (Hebrew) Shlama (Aramaic) or Salaam (Arabic), but seeing most speak only english I use peace. The reason is cause it keeps my pride in check, personally. | 22:51 |
| talntid | mine works great :) | 22:51 |
| aloon | nvidia 330 M | 22:51 |
| talntid | on a GTX 260 | 22:51 |
| talntid | did it not show up under restricted drivers? | 22:51 |
| iceroot | jrebelo: hm, very strange, so i think the sshd is not reading the information correct, or the message about the update is a cached one | 22:51 |
| aloon | it was hard but I got it under Lucid ... now i've been trying for days | 22:51 |
| thepeon | guntbert: the .deb they have you add gives a 404 | 22:51 |
| Whitor | Tater27, nvidia has had a better history of support than ati ... although both are well supported at this point | 22:52 |
| helplez | prappl93: I can't get compositing to work on intel | 22:52 |
| aloon | Nvidia 330 M in a Sony Vaio F series laptop = not very linux friendly , was lots of work to get things going | 22:52 |
| helplez | except in clutter | 22:52 |

| pianoboy3333 | ikonia, still there? | 22:52 |

| iDope | hi guys, I want to run a python script on login as a user but the script requires superuser privileges and I don't want to have to enter the password on logon. Any ideas? | 22:53 |
| jrebelo | iDope: you can set up sudo to allow that command by that user to run without a password | 22:53 |
| jrebelo | it will go in the sudoers file | 22:53 |
| iceroot | jrebelo: i dont have an ubuntu here so i can only guess that it is a setting in /etc/ssh/sshd_config | 22:54 |

| willberg | Hi everyone. Running ubuntu 10.10 LTS server. Overnight my ssh server has stopped liking my main login, permission denied. I can still log in as another user, and then su to my user. So that means not a password issue. Not a firewall/port issue as ssh still works. Any reasons why, overnight, it stops liking a specific user? Any help greatly appreciated. | 22:57 |
| iceroot | sebsebseb: yes | 22:57 |
| sebsebseb | willberg: you may want #ubuntu-server | 22:57 |
| sebsebseb | iceroot: doing what? | 22:57 |

It manages to send DHCP request to the router and it gets an IP assigned and I can see the connection in the router settings page. However, I cannot ping anyt | 23:24 |
| ArtArfon | obsidieth: I cannot see that ive been, explain this further if you can ? ... I merely suggested you installed a distribution instead of testing a live one... | 23:24 |

| Imants-LV | yep | 23:24 |
| obsidieth | ArtArfon: i cannot installa distribution on a cschool computer | 23:24 |
| seanp2k | Imants-LV: are you using the latest version of the installer ISO? | 23:24 |
| obsidieth | it is outside the acceptable use policy. | 23:24 |
| Wavesonics | ArtArfon, I was getting system usage info b4 | 23:25 |
| obsidieth | but ive got the drivers functioning. | 23:25 |

| zebastianortis | i have a password to access | 23:38 |

| ninjai | How can I move while ignoring directories? IE: if I want to move /a/b/c/d.zip to /, and /a/b/c/a.zip exist, how can I do this? | 23:38 |
| zebastianortis | i want to change that | 23:38 |
| jo_ | seanp2k: well, if I try to scroll than suddenly the scrollbar on the rightside of my windows just blocks.. Then I have to regrab it. It drives me crazy | 23:38 |

| kismet | hi, how do I generate a xorg.conf file... as there is none in /etc/X11 | 23:39 |
| seanp2k | jo_: are you using a mouse wheel or touch pad side scroll area? | 23:39 |
| zebastianortis | like if i type sudo in the terminal it asks me for password, so i want to change that | 23:39 |
| almater | anyone know when the 10.10 wubi is out? | 23:39 |
| Gnea | zebastianortis: okay, sudo doesn't use a root password, it uses your password | 23:39 |
| erUSUL | kismet: try « sudo xorg -configure :1 » | 23:39 |

| Gnea | zebastianortis: you can go to system->administration->users & groups and change it there | 23:40 |
| ArtArfon | seanp2k, Lantizia: sweet right ? :) | 23:40 |
| zebastianortis | how do i do that from the terminal? | 23:40 |
| zebastianortis | sudo passwd password root? | 23:40 |
| Gnea | zebastianortis: you asked for it to be done from the gui. | 23:40 |
| jrib | zebastianortis: no. | 23:40 |
| seanp2k | zebastianortis: no, just 'sudo passwd root' and it'll ask you to type it | 23:41 |
| jrib | zebastianortis: don't do that | 23:41 |
| `3Shades | I was messing around from my terminal as su and I closed it while in vi and now my terminal won't open... help! lol | 23:41 |
| kismet | erUSUL, jrib, sean2k, thanks I'll try those... if create a xorg.conf file and mess it up.. and delete it after would it still work | 23:41 |
| Gnea | seanp2k: NO | 23:41 |
| jrib | seanp2k: please don't recommend that, look at the context | 23:41 |
| almater | alteratively, anybody know if there a way to set the current wubi to grab the 10.10 image instead | 23:41 |
| Gnea | zebastianortis: sudo passwd <-- that's all you need | 23:41 |
| zebastianortis | thanks man | 23:41 |
| jrib | kismet: should, yes | 23:41 |
| kismet | jrib, thank you | 23:41 |
| zebastianortis | i made a folder that only i can open | 23:41 |
| zebastianortis | that only root can open | 23:42 |
| jrib | Gnea: umm, that sets a root password :/ | 23:42 |
| zebastianortis | when i click on it it says access denied | 23:42 |
| ubuntu__ | speaking of passwords... I'm booted off USB live mode... does my user (ubuntu) have a password? (and does it matter?) | 23:42 |
| zebastianortis | i want it to prompt and ask for a password instead | 23:42 |
| seanp2k | zebastianortis: how did you make this file? | 23:42 |
| jrib | zebastianortis: is this finally your real question? Stop pressing enter. | 23:42 |
| ArtArfon | seanp2k, Lantizia: But a Daemon C-program to do this would be more reliable.. record_invalid_ping(); sendmail_if_connection_is_up("ECONN_DOWN", datetime); or so | 23:42 |
| Gnea | jrib: er, it..does... dang.. | 23:42 |
| === ubuntu__ is now known as zkam | ||
| Gnea | zebastianortis: sudo passwd sebastian | 23:43 |
| zebastianortis | seanp2k, i sudo pcmanfm and created it and gave permissions to root only, it's for my journal, now how do i make a prompt come up asking me for my password insteead of just saying access denied when i am on the gui | 23:43 |
| zagabar | I am trying to get wireless networking to work on a ubuntu 10.10 server machine. It has a DWA-140 d-link usb device. I installed rt2870 drivers and they seem to work well. I have it configures as a wlan0 device and I entered the settings for the network in the interfaces file. It manages to send DHCP request to the router and it gets an IP assigned and I can see the connection in the router settings page. However, I cannot ping anyt | 23:43 |
| kismet | I have a nother issue with multihead | 23:43 |
| jrib | Gnea: probably just "passwd" is the best way to go | 23:43 |
| seanp2k | kismet: wuddup? I use dual monitors. | 23:43 |
| kismet | with multihead compiz won't work... | 23:43 |
| zkam | renamed myself, so I'll ask again... I'm booted off USB live mode... does my user (ubuntu) have a password? (and does it matter?) | 23:43 |
| zebastianortis | Error opening directory '/home/sebastian/Desktop/journal/$': Permission denied | 23:43 |
| jrib | zkam: password should be blank (as in there is no password) for the live cd | 23:44 |
| Gnea | jrib: you know, probably. who introduced the whole sudo thing anyway? I could really go and drop a load of bricks on someone's head right now... :) | 23:44 |
| seanp2k | kismet: please give more details than just "won't work"...does the screen just go completely black when you enable the 2nd monitor or something? | 23:44 |
| kismet | seanp2k, compiz won't work with multihead..(multihead = dual monitor) | 23:44 |
| kemnitz | Help! When I tried to upgrade to Maverick, something went wrong and now I can't get X to start! When I boot, I just get tty1. I've done |sudo aptitude update| and |sudo aptitude full-upgrade| and then rebooted several times. What am I missing? | 23:44 |
| zkam | thanks jrib | 23:44 |
| zebastianortis | instead of that i want a prompt that asks me for my password, much like with synaptic | 23:44 |
| Gnea | zebastianortis: are you confused yet? I'm sorry, but 'passwd' by itself is all you need. sorry for the bad info above. | 23:44 |
| RRU_Sciguy | zkam, nothing is saved in a liveCD boot | 23:44 |
| jo_ | seanp2k: any ideas what that scrolling thing could be? | 23:44 |
| seanp2k | jo_: not really, you say it just basically drops focus on the scroll bar? I'd try switching out hardware, i.e. try different mouse | 23:45 |
| jrib | zebastianortis: IN ONE LINE, tell us exactly what you do, what happens, and what you want to happen (you haven't told us the first part that I can see) | 23:45 |
| seanp2k | jo_: check out the program 'xev' | 23:45 |
| Gnea | jrib: trying to fix a broken wubi installation with a massive headache isn't really helping much | 23:45 |
| zebastianortis | Gnea, i already changed the password thanks, now the problem is this, when i am on the gui and click on my root only folder it says access denied, and what i want it to do is prompt and ask for the password | 23:45 |
| kismet | seanp2k, If i plug in the second monitor compiz just enables itself... under pref->monitors if i place them on top of each other compiz starts (appearance) | 23:45 |
| jrib | Gnea: I've put off upgrading to 10.10 until I have a free day for that reason :) | 23:45 |
| zebastianortis | i want the folder that only root can open to show up a prompt that asks for the password instead of saying access denied only root can open this folder | 23:46 |
| jrib | zebastianortis: what exactly do you mean by "root only folder"? | 23:46 |
| miramardesign | any1 know how to conn. to a vpn connection via command line?? | 23:46 |
| kismet | seanp2k, does it make sense what i wrote | 23:46 |
| ddilinger | ?? java | 23:46 |
| Gnea | zebastianortis: you'll just have to explain the whole thing, I don't understand 'root folder' you say one thing and mean another | 23:46 |
| kemnitz | zebastianortis: it sounds like you want to |gksu nautilus| and then browse around. | 23:46 |
| ddilinger | whats the info bot here called? | 23:46 |
| zebastianortis | i made a folder that only root has permission to open, read write, etc, to put my journal in it, when i click on it from the gui though it says permission denied, i want it to pop up a prompt asking for apssword instead | 23:46 |
| erUSUL | !java > ddilinger | 23:46 |
| ubottu | ddilinger, please see my private message | 23:46 |
| seanp2k | kismet: yes, i just don't have much experience with compiz. Try disabling or scaling back graphical effects | 23:46 |
| erUSUL | !bot > ddilinger | 23:46 |
| seanp2k | kismet: preferences -> appearance -> visual effects | 23:47 |
| kismet | seanp2k, yeah if i totally disable the graphical effects all good... but it would be a nice to have with compiz enababled | 23:47 |
| seanp2k | kismet: see if that helps. What video card / graphic drivers are you using? | 23:47 |
| Some_Person | rww: Bug posted: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/659565 | 23:47 |

| seanp2k | kismet: Ahh, i see. Probably better to post the details in the forums then, more likely to get a response because it's a kind of complex problem | 23:47 |
| jo_ | seanp2k: does that mean something special? | 23:48 |
| kismet | seanp2k, oh i see... | 23:48 |
| almater | anyone know if i can install 10.10 from my ipod | 23:48 |
| kismet | seanp2k, thanks | 23:48 |
| zebastianortis | for insttance when i open synaptic it prompts asking me for my password, what i want is exactly that to happen when i click on the folder that i created on which only root has read write privileges, currently it says access denied upon clicking, i want a prompt asking for password instead | 23:48 |
| madfox | almater from your ipod? like to what? | 23:48 |
| Gnea | !ipod | almater | 23:48 |
| ubottu | almater: For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto - For the iPhone and the iPod Touch, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone - See !RockBox for information on liberating your iPod | 23:48 |
| seanp2k | jo_: Right, but does it display events when the scroll bar releases? | 23:48 |
| h00k | almater: you can use it as a mass storage device to put the Ubuntu installer on it, and boot your computer from that device, yes | 23:48 |
| h00k | almater: If you treat it like a normal USB drive and use the Startup Disk Creator | 23:49 |
| kismet | One more question about xorg.conf: if I just put some sections in the file and not all would it just use the sections which i put in? | 23:49 |
| erUSUL | zebastianortis: not possible; nautilus does not know how to handle that; and probably it will never know. nobody asking for it | 23:49 |
| erUSUL | kismet: yes | 23:49 |
| === adante_ is now known as adante | ||

| seanp2k | zebastianortis: I have no idea how to make it do that. You might have to make some kind of custom handler for that. No easy way that I know of. You might want to look into something like this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EasyEncryption | 23:49 |
| almater | yes, just wondering if it had been tried. thanks h00k | 23:49 |

| gtm | sorry...i was disconnected befor...is there someone able to export a driver from jaunty to be imported in lucid or maverick? | 23:50 |
| kismet | erUSUL, thanks | 23:50 |
| erUSUL | will: right click on it choose writte to disk | 23:50 |
| meesebyte | seanp2k: I'll do fdisk -l once the demo opens lol | 23:50 |
| madfox | kemnitz what does startx do for you? | 23:50 |
| meesebyte | k here we go | 23:50 |
| erUSUL | will: make sure you have a blank cd in the burner too ;P | 23:50 |
| zebastianortis | there must be some algorithm that prompts for passwords | 23:50 |
| seanp2k | meesebyte: OK, that will show us how the partitions are set up right now. | 23:50 |
| zebastianortis | i am using pcmanfm, i am on lubuntu | 23:50 |
| erUSUL | zebastianortis: no; synaptic ask for a password because the menu entry does not call synaptic directly. it calls gksudo with synaptic as an argument | 23:51 |
| === helper is now known as Guest18201 | ||
| Gnea | zebastianortis: so that'd be a feature request of pcmanfm then | 23:51 |
| erUSUL | zebastianortis: gksudo ask the password gksudo launchs synaptic | 23:51 |
| enteL | hi, im creating a partition to put ubuntu on, should i use ext4 or ext3? | 23:52 |
| meesebyte | seanp2k: Is it normal for the demo to freeze up after like 60 seconds? | 23:52 |
| meesebyte | :/ | 23:52 |
| meesebyte | I bet it isn't | 23:52 |
| zebastianortis | aha, so is there a way that i can ask gksudo to open pcmanfm to open this folder? | 23:52 |
| madfox | zebastianortis you can make a simple wrapper to have gksudo call your filemanager | 23:52 |
| zebastianortis | madfox how? | 23:52 |
| Gnea | zebastianortis: you could possibly make a shortcut key-combo to do it | 23:52 |
| Gnea | !shortcut | zebastianortis | 23:53 |
| ubottu | zebastianortis: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts | 23:53 |
| erUSUL | running your filemanager as root is asking for trouble imho. one bad keypress == messed system | 23:53 |
| Some_Person | enteL: If you want to be able to read anything on your ubuntu partition from Windows, use ext3. If you don't care, go with ext4 | 23:53 |
| git__ | chrome is more stable than firefox | 23:53 |
| madfox | Edit your menus and see what the command line args gksudu calls for synaptic and recreate it for pcman | 23:53 |
| kemnitz | madfox: Amongst some other stuff, it says "Fatal server error: no screens found" and then after pausing for a bit, "xinit: No such file or directory (errno 2): unable to connect to X server" and "xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error." | 23:53 |
| enteL | Some_Person: thanks | 23:53 |
| Gnea | erUSUL: well, he seems to have his bits in a row | 23:53 |
| enteL | i dont NEED a swap partition do i | 23:53 |
| meesebyte | seanp2k: Is there a way to get to the kernel with just USB in? Non installation? | 23:54 |
| madfox | kemnitz try using apt-get to install a new xserver | 23:54 |
| meesebyte | because demo is screwed up | 23:54 |
| zebastianortis | Gnea, ok, problem is i amon lubuntu | 23:54 |
| Gnea | !swap | enteL | 23:54 |
| ubottu | enteL: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 23:54 |
| Gnea | !lubuntu | 23:54 |
| ubottu | lubuntu is a project to create a derivative of Ubuntu using the LXDE desktop environment. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu | 23:54 |
| zebastianortis | madfox, how do you make a wrapper to do it? | 23:54 |
| gtm | is there a way to export a driver from jaunty to be imported in lucid or maverick? | 23:54 |
| Some_Person | enteL: Technically no, but it is highly recommended, and I'm not sure if ubiquity will let you install without one | 23:54 |
| RealOpty | is 10.10 LTS? | 23:54 |
| Gnea | zebastianortis: yeah, you'll need to figure out how to do that then | 23:54 |
| erUSUL | RealOpty: no | 23:54 |
| madfox | zebastianortis Edit your menus and see what the command line args gksudu calls for synaptic and recreate it for pcman | 23:54 |
| Gnea | zebastianortis: it's only lxde, shouldn't be too terribly difficult to figure out | 23:54 |
| Owen | sudo nano /etc/apache2/apache2.conf cant find "serverTokens" | 23:55 |
| Owen | anyone know if its here? | 23:55 |
| dios_mio | bye | 23:55 |
| Gnea | if it's point-and-click, should be able to read a few menus and figure it out just by reading what they are | 23:55 |
| madfox | zebastianortis basically play with it till it works. | 23:55 |
| RealOpty | when is the next LTS release? | 23:55 |
| seanp2k | meesebyte: not sure what you mean? | 23:55 |
