[00:00] <rockets> poena, yeah, there should be something somewhere called additonal drivers.
[00:01] <rockets> Dulak, thanks man. On netbook its called Additional Drivers.
[00:01] <rockets> poena, yaeh, dulak is right, It's called additonal drivesr on netbook.
[00:01] <poena> zh ok
[00:01] <poena> yup got it open
[00:01] <rockets> poena, does it list anything?
[00:01] <poena> Searching...
[00:02] <rockets> poena, 4gb SSD right? That's crazyness!
[00:02] <Dulak> That must be new to maverick, on my lucid netbook it's called hardware drivers
[00:02] <poena> ya heh an older asus netbook but it does the trick
[00:02] <poena> ok it says 'No proprietary drivers are in use on this system'
[00:02] <squirrel2> How can I find the location of a program that i use in terminal (ie. if I type, 'adb', a program is run, but where is it stored?)
[00:03] <rockets> poena, yeah it looks like you have an atheros wifi.
[00:03] <trism> squirrel2: which programname
[00:03] <webben> squirrel2: which adb
[00:03] <poena> uh oh
[00:03] <rockets> What happens if you hit the keyboard shortcut to start wifi? Maybe you turned it off :-P
[00:03] <webben> squirrel2: Note the referent might be a symlink not a binary
[00:03] <poena> er not sure i have one, sec
[00:03] <rockets> poena, usually fn-something
[00:03] <poena> is having atheros wifi = bad?
[00:03] <rockets> poena, no, it's part of the stock kernel. usually works great.
[00:03] <KM0201> poena, no..my experience, they work out of the box
[00:03] <rockets> Intel is best for Linux though.
[00:04] <poena> yay :)
[00:04] <squirrel2> trism: It's Android Debug Bridge. But I'm asking generally really, how can I find where the binary is?
[00:04] <KM0201> poena, which atheros does the machine have
[00:04] <LucidGuy> Windows7 update seems to have messed up my grub2.  Suggestions how to reinstall/repair my previous grub2 and both OS options?
[00:04] <shauno> squirrel2: 'which' is the name of the command.  so literally, type 'which adb'
[00:04] <ekristen> good evening, I am trying to do a dist-upgrade with apt-get but I am getting an error with samba-common, saying samba depends on samba-common (2:3.4.0-3ubuntu5.6) but 2:3.4.0-3ubuntu5.7 is to be installed, any ideas on how to get around this?
[00:04] <rockets> KM0201, 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)
[00:04] <KM0201> !grub2  | LucidGuy there's instructions on this page to restore grub 2 w/ a live cd
[00:05] <KM0201> rockets, that one works out of the box(i have it on 2 laptops)... it's worked out of the box since... 9.04
[00:05] <poena> i hit the Fn-Wifi but it doesnt seem to do anything
[00:05] <poena> let me check the BIOS
[00:05] <rockets> KM0201, thus, I asked him to check if he accidentally turned his wifi off.
[00:05] <shnoozi> can i run live 910 toram?
[00:05] <KM0201> rockets, what version of ubuntu is he using?...
[00:05] <rockets> shnoozi, I could be wrong, but I don't remember any ubuntu live cd supporting toram
[00:06] <rockets> poena, you're running 10.10 right?
[00:06] <poena> ja
[00:06] <poena> just got it up & running
[00:06] <KM0201> poena, are you running 10.10?  that device hasnt' been identified as 242x for a while(242x was actually an incorrect identification..)
[00:06] <poena> KM: yes I am running 10.10
[00:07] <Dulak> shnoozi: you have to burn a custom livecd to boot to ram, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM
[00:07] <Asko> rockets: one question, lets say that im using 10.10 and there comes a 20.20 version...do i need to format or update manager will take care of it?
[00:07] <KM0201> hmm, unusual
[00:07] <rockets> poena, I didn't paste the lspci from him, I pasted it from a website with a paste of the lspci from his machine.
[00:07] <smallfoot-> alt+printscreen works for you guys?
[00:07] <poena> wait the icon is doing its flashy thing
[00:07] <rockets> erm KM0201
[00:07] <rockets> see above
[00:07] <rockets> Asko, you can do a distribution upgrade if you want.
[00:07] <poena> it may be one of those ID10T user errors :p
[00:07] <poena> i am still looking
[00:07] <KM0201> rockets, oh ok.. yeah, cuz now it's correctly identified.. im not on my laptop, but i believe its AR5007EG
[00:07] <volcom7205> ne one willing to try and help me with my power management issue?
[00:08] <rockets> !ask | volocom
[00:08] <shnoozi> Dulak, tried it, didn't work..
[00:08] <rockets> poena, the error was between the chair and keyboard? :-P
[00:08] <shades> I did apt-get install gddrescue and ddrescue and both are on my system
[00:09] <poena> hahhaa ya
[00:09] <rockets> Man. I kill way too much time on IRC.
[00:09] <rockets> poena, so it's working now?
[00:09] <shades> but
[00:09] <poena> Yes
[00:09] <poena> thank you :)
[00:09] <poena> sry for the dumb user error
[00:09] <shades> ddrescue --help doesn't list -d or --direct as an option
[00:09] <shades> what's wrong?
[00:09] <poena> one last question
[00:09] <poena> is it possible to not use this side panel in 10.10 and only have the top icon bar?
[00:09] <rockets> poena, heh it's alright. My dad constantly hits the "Wifi Off" switch on his laptop, and always calls me on the phone to fix it, and its always the same problem :-P
[00:10] <rockets> poena, you mean on netbook edition?
[00:10] <poena> ja
[00:10] <rockets> poena, no, but in the next version (11.04), you're going to be able to set the sidebar to autohide.
[00:10]  * KM0201 hates NBR.. installs normal gnome on his netbook.
[00:10] <RudyValencia> Is it safe to remove Compiz if I'm using a laptop with a slow nVidia card (GeForce4 Go 440)?
[00:10] <poena> why the heck would they make a 'wifi off' button
[00:10] <rockets> poena, try to get used t oit.
[00:10] <rockets> poena, save battery when you don't need wifi.
[00:10] <KM0201> poena, all laptops have them to my knowledge
[00:10] <poena> really?
[00:10] <rockets> KM0201, mine doesn
[00:10] <poena> heh wow
[00:10] <poena> idk i would never use my laptop if it wasn't connected
[00:10] <rockets> KM0201, mine doesnt have a physical one, and the software one doesnt work in ubuntu
[00:10] <poena> well unless im playing music or streaming
[00:11] <KM0201> poena, really.. my laptop and my netbooks all do.
[00:11] <Dulak> poena: when you logout, you can choose a plain gnome session instead of unity, then rework the panels how you like, that's what I ended up doing on my netbook.
[00:11] <poena> dulak i am too dumb for that methinks
[00:11] <poena> i was outsmarted by a 'wifi off' botton
[00:11] <poena> *button
[00:11] <sinisterstuf> ok I'm back again, is it possible to do an upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10 using chroot environment, all the packages have allready been downloaded
[00:11] <rockets> The problem with my dad's wifi off button is that its touch sensitive. So easy to hit by accident.
[00:11] <poena> can't disable in the BIOS?
[00:11] <RudyValencia> Is it safe to remove Compiz if I'm using a laptop with a slow nVidia card (GeForce4 Go 440)?
[00:11] <rockets> poena, possibly?
[00:11] <Dulak> poena: logout, click your name in the list, at the bottom there will be a session dropdown, just choose gnome there instead of unity
[00:11] <rockets> RudyValencia, you don't need to remove it. You can just disable it.
[00:12] <csmith1994> hey guys. anyone know a distro I can use on an amd-k6 with 58mb of ram? LOL this machine is ancient
[00:12] <lupine_85> dsl
[00:12] <poena> ty Dulak i will try that :)
[00:12] <rockets> csmith1994, you can use DSL.
[00:12] <RudyValencia> ah
[00:12] <csmith1994> thanks to both of you but even with 58mb of ram?
[00:12] <csmith1994> cool
[00:12] <rockets> RudyValencia, go to the "Appearance" settings.
[00:12] <RudyValencia> oh
[00:12] <rockets> then set visual effects to none.
[00:13] <Orfeous> hi everyone!
[00:13] <Asko> yo
[00:13] <shades> apt-get install ddrescue says it's up to date but ddrescue --version says 1.2 and i'm looking at this ddrescue manpage online that says it's 1.8
[00:14] <shades> what's wrong?
[00:14] <volcom7205> alright I have a toshiba satellite model l655-s5072 and i have ubuntu 10.04 installed. The problem is that it doesnt recognize my battery. It always says im on ac power and doesnt offer battery power options in the power management menu. ne ideas??
[00:14] <rockets> shades, thats because it's up to date relative to the package in the ubuntu repository.
[00:14] <Xpistos> __cool__: that worked thanks
[00:14] <rockets> shades, ubuntu repositories don't magically update to the latest version of software. it has to be compiled by a dev, and then added to the repository.
[00:14] <Xpistos> cd ..
[00:14] <Orfeous> downloaded shoutcast server from shoutcast homepage and damn cant get the server to start like it did for some years ago when i was running debian.. wats happen is that when i try to start the server "./sc_serv" i got command not found
[00:15] <shades> how do I get the latest version of ddrescue
[00:15] <Orfeous> the file is readable and executeable..
[00:15] <shades> on my system?
[00:15] <rockets> shades, you could compile it.
[00:15] <poena> Dulak, is it possible to move the netbook sidebar to the bottom instead of the side?
[00:15] <shades> oh
[00:15] <shades> ok
[00:15] <Orfeous> 'is something wrong with glibc? or libc.. etc?
[00:15] <rockets> shades, is the old version not working for you?
[00:15] <nadav> can I upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10 or I need to reinstall completly
[00:16] <poena> nadav you can upgrade but you need 1.5g free space i believe
[00:16] <iisthphir> i just installed the nvidia driver 260.19 and i write an xconfig file and check it, its ok. so i reset server and it just returns to default wht on earth do i do then if it wont let me apply the config anyways?
[00:16] <coz_> nadav,  you can   but I always suggest clean installs
[00:16] <Orfeous> ./sc_serv: Command not found.
[00:16] <patryk> siema
[00:16] <poena> should be able to via update manager
[00:16] <patryk> jest kto┼ø??
[00:16] <rockets> iisthphir, I recommend using the driver instalation tool to autoconfigure it for you.
[00:16] <Dulak> poena: not sure I never used that netbook interface, I booted into it the first time, and realized it didn't really make things better, so I use gnome, with 1 panel, and docbarx in that panel, instead of the normal netbook interface
[00:16] <bazhang> !pl | patryk
[00:16] <patryk> hey
[00:16] <JDPerry> Hi there, does anyone know if the iPhone4 works with ubuntu? I've tried all the support options i can find online for iOS4 but nobody seems to say anything about the new hardware
[00:17] <patryk> im Poladn
[00:17] <rockets> Dulak, I love the netbook interface. Gives me more vertical screen space.
[00:17] <shades> rockets: old version doesn't have --direct or -d
[00:17] <shades> which is more reliable
[00:18] <shauno> JDPerry: my understanding (completely untested) is that it should work as far as any other ipod does.  anything phone-specific (or hardware-specific, like updating firmware, etc), you're outta luck
[00:18] <nm5tf> anyone having problems after upgrading from 10.04LTS to 10.10???
[00:19] <shauno> JDPerry: I think the 'out of luck' bit extends as far as applications too (since you can't add anything that isn't signed)
[00:19] <Dulak> rockets: you can get more using 1 panel in gnome actually, it's the maximus window management program that strips your windows and force maximizes them that gives you that extra space, not the unity interface.  Unity is more space than gnome with a single panel.
[00:19] <JDPerry> see that is what i thought, but its not even mounting
[00:19] <rockets> Dulak, hmm. regardless. I like the interface a lot.
[00:20] <rockets> irregardless*
[00:20] <rockets> :-P
[00:20] <nertil> sudo chown -R nertil:nertil ~nertil/.winetrickscache
 chown: cannot access `/home/nertil/.winetrickscache': No such file or directory
[00:21] <rockets> Dulak, are you sure its maximum? According to my synaptic, I don't even have maximus installed?
[00:21] <aeon-ltd> rockets: if you want maximum space, learn about tiling WMs
[00:21] <rockets> aeon-ltd, Yeah, I used awesome for a long time.
[00:21] <poena> does 10.10 have transparency?
[00:22] <rymo> I want to install Maverick as a guest OS on XenServer - where do I go for an up-to-date walkthrough?
[00:22] <rockets> aeon-ltd, I used Awesome + Arch Linux for a long time.
[00:22] <rockets> I like having a more normal window manager, that still gives me maximum window space.
[00:22] <Dulak> rockets: I'm on 10.04 and it's called maximus, I have not installed maverick yet, still waiting for them to settle down on major issues
[00:22] <aeon-ltd> rockets: lol, i'm on dwm and arch right now, slightly ot but what made you switch to ubuntu?
[00:22] <rockets> aeon-ltd, got tired of having to hand configure every little thing.
[00:23] <rockets> aeon-ltd, I have actual work to do.
[00:23] <aeon-ltd> rockets: have you tried openbox and pytyle?
[00:23] <Doonz> does a 16x video card work in a 1x slot
[00:24] <nikola> One basic question: i am playing in terminal with name renaming, and i have one file that starts with ( and  Tab cant complete it. info doesnt have any info on that problem, and three pages on google i read so far are on no help too. is there some special trick with files with ()
[00:24] <rymo> http://www.ubuntu.com/server/features/virtualisation make it sound like it should be super easy: "The best guest OS" - but there must be a trick because neither the Server or Desktop ISO wants to boot
[00:24] <rockets> aeon-ltd, no desire to.
[00:24] <rockets> aeon-ltd, also, arch is great with its AUR, but having to use the AUR on a slow netbook sucks. Takes forever to compile things.
[00:25] <Xpistos> l8s~
[00:25] <aeon-ltd> rockets: yeah i suppose, its kinda like ppas but easier for the devs to distribute rather than having it easier for the users
[00:25] <rockets> aeon-ltd, yeah well, having the huge repo of precompiled apps just makes netbook life easier.
[00:26] <rockets> aeon-ltd, and with my compulsive tinkering, I never get any work done on arch.
[00:26] <rockets> Speaking of work, it's time for me to go.
[00:26] <rockets> Later y'all.
[00:26] <aeon-ltd> rockets: k
[00:27] <rymo> nikola: try \(
[00:27] <cordoval_> fooledbyprimes: are you there?
[00:28] <aeon-ltd> nikola: even with quotes " placed before it?
[00:28] <poena> Dulak, actually I found if you edit the login settings there's an option there for 'ubuntu desktop' which loads w/o the sidebar and appears just like the real desktop ed.
[00:28] <poena> this =s :]
[00:28] <nikola> rymo, tnx that worked
[00:28] <poena> i am going to miss mediamonkey though on my laptop
[00:28] <johnb> I get this error message when running E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[00:28] <johnb> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[00:28] <nikola> aeon, i dont know i will try that
[00:28] <Dulak> poena: that's probably about the same as doing it my way
[00:29] <poena> yup
[00:29] <poena> :)
[00:29] <johnb> Synaptic Pakage
[00:29] <poena> Dulak ^5 plz
[00:29] <rymo> nikola: if you ever have a problem in terminal that isn't answered here, you can try #bash too. good luck!
[00:29] <dominicdinada> ok another question about cleaning up disk space
[00:30] <ActionParsnip> exit
[00:31] <dominicdinada> Say you download sources and then when you build and install the make files it leaves the source directory locked how do you remove them. I mean if it is installed i dont need 100mb of sources, builds etc
[00:31] <zacktu> i just created a partition to be encrypted w/ truecrypt and formatted it as ext4 - gparted says it's ext4 - truecrypt formatted it again (no opportunity for me to select format) - now a right click on the desktop icon says the partition's format is msdos (fat i assume) - is there a way i can set up truecrypt again and have a linux file format?
[00:31] <nikola> rymo, tnx again, added to fav. also, aeon-ltd that worked great too. strange that such simple things are not pointed out in manuals
[00:32] <JDPerry> could someone explain how to mount my iphone for filebrowsing? i dont care about music synching i can use nautilus, i just need to understand how to go about getting this thing recognized by my system

[00:38] <Xpistos> any suggestions?
[00:40] <xarneo> morning all.
[00:41] <nertil> with what software i can make iso images?
[00:41] <CardinalFang> Xpistos, "it won't look inside the folders because of the charcters"?  What?
[00:41] <CardinalFang> nertil, "mkisofs".  You probably have a more specific question, though.
[00:41] <nertil> iso master
[00:41] <nertil> i found one
[00:41] <nertil> :)
[00:42] <Xpistos> CardinalFang: I litteraly have thousands of files to rename so a windows partition can read them. they have ":" and "/" in the file names that windows can't read. So I need to go through one dir and all is subs and rename the files.
[00:42] <yonahw> Hi, I am trying to get my Logitech QuickCam working with 10.04.1. It is listed under lsusb as ID 046d:08ae. Apparently from what I can find on the web it should just work however this is not the case. I have tried using it with Skype, guvcview and cheese none of which recognize it's existence. Well actually cheese just hangs. It is listed as /dev/video0 and /dev/audio1. Can anyone please help me?
[00:42] <Pentium3> Hello, I am looking for an old ubuntu theme called "Crux" I believe it was from ubuntu 8.04.
[00:42] <Xpistos> CardinalFang: I have a command that will rename the files in the current dir and all subs
[00:43] <odofad> Hi ppl, got a sticky one... both my 32bit ubuntu lucid machines can't access the internet behind smoothwall, all other machines including 64bit lucid and windows has no problem. DHCP assigns  IP addresses, any suggestion? Thanks
[00:43] <Xpistos> CardinalFang: But it will not do it in a dir that has "(" in its name. They all do because they are dates ie "(2009)"
[00:43] <Xpistos> so the loop doesn't work "find . -xdev -type d -exec sh -c 'cd {} ; pwd ; rename s/\:/--/ *:* ' \;"
[00:43] <KM0201> Pentium3, try checking gnome-look.org
[00:43] <KM0201> i remember that theme... only other solution, would be to download ubntu 8.04, and pull it off of there
[00:43] <Pentium3> KM0201: ok
[00:45] <CardinalFang> Xpistos, so, from any of those directories, does   rename s/\:/--/ *:*   do what you want?
[00:45] <Xpistos> CardinalFang: Yes
[00:45] <Aer> I'm just curious I use "Emesene" but it doesnt support games, Does anyone know if their is a linux version of MSN which supports games that will let me play games with my friends who use MSN on windows ?
[00:45] <JodaZ_> how do i strip a ubuntu (jaunty) desktop install of all the desktop stuff so i basically have a server ?
[00:45] <daswort> huhu
[00:46] <trism> Pentium3: it appears to be in the gnome-themes package
[00:46] <Xpistos> CardinalFang: When i try to use the loop it says unexpected "(" or something to that affect
[00:46] <daswort> i need a casual game from repos, something like supertux
[00:46] <CardinalFang> Xpistos, so, it appears as though your "sh -c  SomethingWithAParen" is the problem?
[00:46] <Xpistos> CardinalFang: YES
[00:46] <administrator_> zaoshanghao
[00:46] <Xpistos> CardinalFang: Sorry
[00:46] <Xpistos> CardinalFang: Yes
[00:46] <CardinalFang> Xpistos, then, don't use "sh" there.
[00:47] <Aer> or how about skype for linux on ubuntu ? is their some sort of plugin for that which allows it to play the skype games ? im using the 2.1 beta and it doesnt let me play the skype games with my friends :(

[00:47] <Aer> JodaZ_ cant you use it as a server even with the desktop stuff ?
[00:47] <LoJuRu> exurgency: You're in the right location. Would you mind providing more info? What kind of wireless device, etc?
[00:48] <JodaZ_> LoJuRu, remote headless server
[00:48] <CardinalFang> Xpistos, what does  "rename s/\:/--/  /path/to/a/file/with:colon"  do?  Something wrong?
[00:48] <JodaZ_> kellnola, remote headless server
[00:48] <JodaZ_> Aer, no, bloat
[00:48] <LoJuRu> JodaZ_: so you just want it to be sexy clean?
[00:48] <exurgency> Lojuru - Of course. : ) It's a RaLink RT2800, in an MSi Gx630 laptop.
[00:48] <Aer> you could always try a lighter desktop if you want to free up resources, by installing the LXDE desktop for  ubuntu
[00:48] <kellnola> JodaZ_, well just remove what you do not want then, no prob.
[00:48] <exurgency> LoJuRu - Detected and all, but I cannot for the life of me make it active.
[00:49] <Aer> much lighter than gnome and kde and i think maybe XFCE
[00:49] <Pentium3> KM0201: The link at Gnome-Look just directs me to a 404.
[00:49] <LoJuRu> Aer, lxde is lighter than xfce by a considerable amount IIRC
[00:49] <edwardthefma> hello all
[00:49] <LoJuRu> exurgency: one moment while I look into this...
[00:49] <Aer> ahhh ok
[00:49] <Xpistos> CardinalFang: just get rid of "sh -c" in the command then -- find . -xdev -type d -exec sh -c 'cd {} ; pwd ; rename s/\:/--/ *:* ' \;
[00:49] <CardinalFang> Xpistos, I suspect you should    find -type f -exec rename s/\:/--/ {} \;   or something like that.
[00:49] <Aer> then lxde would be a better one to try
[00:49] <KM0201> Pentium3, hmm
[00:50] <Aer> i didnt know that though, thanks :)
[00:50] <JodaZ_> kellnola, sure, whats the metapackage name on jaunty ?
[00:50]  * edwardthefma is looking for a wireless card that works with ubuntu
[00:50] <Pentium3> KM0201: you know of any other sites?
[00:50] <exurgency> LoJuRu - The most referenced fix is to disable PnP OS in my bios, but I've gone through my menus a good 10 times with nothing mentioning PnP.
[00:51] <kellnola> JodaZ_, I believe removing ubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop will remove all the desktop stuff
[00:51] <KM0201> Pentium3, only other thing i can think to try(and you'll probably be searching a while) is to hit packages.ubuntu.com and search for it...
[00:51] <Pentium3> KM0201: ok, thanks
[00:51] <kellnola> JodaZ_, but it'd be better to not have all that junk installed in the first place
[00:51] <JodaZ_> kellnola, aparently not, gdm was still on it and i already removed both of those
[00:51] <CardinalFang> Xpistos, better, only run that for files with colon in the name:   find -type f -name \*:\* -exec rename s/\:/--/ {} \;   or something like that.
[00:52] <odofad> edwardthefma, use Ndiswrapper
[00:52] <LoJuRu> exurgency: have you asked in #linux? (you need to be registered with freenode) This may be beyond my ability to help...
[00:52] <JodaZ_> kellnola, also, its got 3gb disk usage
[00:52] <exurgency> LoJuRu - I have not, I came straight to #ubuntu
[00:52] <Aer> just out of curiosity im assuming xfce is lighter than gnome and kde ?
[00:53] <kellnola> JodaZ_, well, what can I tell you, remove a basic X11 dependency (a library would do it) and it will take everything out with it
[00:53] <CardinalFang> Xpistos, I'm going AFK in 30 seconds.
[00:53] <Aer> on resources
[00:53] <Xpistos> CardinalFang: thanks for the help
[00:53] <JodaZ_> kellnola, got a name for me ?
[00:53] <seidos> anyone know how to create a torrent?
[00:53] <LoJuRu> exurgency: try there as well. I have my attention split on four different projects ATM and will continue to see if I can find you a fix, but it might take more time than if you were to ask the excellent people @ #linux
[00:53] <Aer> what program you using to create a torrent ?
[00:53] <LoJuRu> seidos: http://www.google.com/#hl=en&expIds=25657,26637,27103,27144&sugexp=ldymls&xhr=t&q=how+create+torrent&cp=13&pf=p&sclient=psy&aq=f&aqi=g4g-o1&aql=&oq=how+create+to&gs_rfai=&pbx=1&fp=fe7e51d4c9f90cac
[00:54] <exurgency> I will give it a shot, LoJuRu.
[00:54] <seidos> LoJuRu, thanks, i'll take a look
[00:54] <LoJuRu> seidos: please use google for such general questions. Google-fu - the hacker's best skill.
[00:54] <exurgency> LoJuRu - Google failed me, still.
[00:54] <LoJuRu> exurgency: you're a different case. =P
[00:54] <seidos> LoJuRu, yeah, i know.  got lazy.
[00:55] <odofad> Hi ppl, got a sticky one... both my 32bit ubuntu lucid machines can't access the internet behind smoothwall, all other machines including 64bit lucid and windows has no problem. DHCP assigns  IP addresses, any suggestion? Thanks
[00:55] <dwayne_> can anyone tell me how to log in to root
[00:56] <exurgency> Argh, bollocks, I need a decent Windows IRC client now.
[00:56] <fengshaun> Hi, I have a sony vaio vgn-fj270, and unfortunately, when I decrease the screen brightness, the screen flashes randomly once in a while (in a moment, the brightness goes up to 100% and back to its previous state, in a flash-like manner).  How can I fix this?
[00:56] <fengshaun> I have 10.04
[00:56] <bill> Hey everyone, I'm looking to try 10.10 on a Toshiba netbook.  I can get it to install, but it won't boot once it does, drops me into busybox.  After searching the forums, I found I many need to compile a different Kernel to get it to work.  As a linux beginner... is that  out of my league? I don't know where i would even start.
[00:56] <digitalstimulus> Would anyone happen to know why a scanner would stop working after a distro upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10.  I am using a Brother MFC-7840W all in one laser.  I have the official brother .deb that I reinstalled and everything.  Brother utilities show it is setup, but sane does not see it
[00:56] <exurgency> dwayne_ - If you don't know how, perhaps you shouldn't be root. That being said, sudo su should do.
[00:57] <dwayne_> will normaly i can but every time i try its wont let me
[00:57] <nikola> exurgency, when you are done with sudo su, what is the command to end root session
[00:57] <LoJuRu> nikola: exit
[00:57] <pigdude> ubuntu is great! but it should come w/ clearlooks by default
[00:58] <exurgency> nikola - As LoJuRu said.
[00:58] <nikola> :)
[00:58] <LoJuRu> pigdude: it used to come with a pretty brown theme
[00:58] <Garandir> Does anyone use a Razer Lycosa and/or Diamondback 3g with Ubuntu? Mine freeze.
[00:58] <pigdude> LoJuRu, my favorite look was dapper
[00:58] <pigdude> LoJuRu, is that what you're thinking of?
[00:58]  * exurgency doesn't care how Ubuntu looks. It's a console most of the time.
[00:59] <pigdude> my servers are all debian stable
[00:59] <dwayne_> exurgency ty that help me have a good one guys
[00:59] <exurgency> dwayne_: Cheers.
[00:59] <LoJuRu> pigdude: the one they defaulted to in Hardy, etc. Up until 10.04
[00:59] <pigdude> LoJuRu, hardy had a nice look
[00:59] <pigdude> LoJuRu, but I like'd dapper's simplicity
[00:59] <pigdude> *liked
[01:00] <nikola> LoJuRu, and exurgency i can note that your commands worked as supposed and thank you for fast reply
[01:00] <exurgency> brb
[01:00] <LoJuRu> pigdude: 9.10 was the best looking Ubuntu imo. exurgency you did try rmmod <driver> // modprobe <driver>? (stupid question)
[01:00] <Garandir> Does anyone use a Razer Lycosa and/or Diamondback 3g with Ubuntu? Mine freeze.
[01:00] <nikola> Garandir, i have razor diamondback plasma
[01:01] <Garandir> It doesn't freeze?
[01:01] <LoJuRu> Always a pleasure nikola
[01:01] <Exurgency> LoJuRu, I did.
[01:01] <nikola> nope, but i had problems with speed
[01:01]  * pigdude back to code
[01:01] <Garandir> pm me please nikola
[01:01] <LoJuRu> brb all
[01:02] <poena> hey folks
[01:02] <Aer> hi
[01:02] <akatosh> Hello everyone.  I'm having trouble configuring ubuntu 10.1 to use only a t.v. monitor connected via TV out instead of that and a VGA monitor.  I've added xrandr commands to my .profile but it only works with the VGA monitor plugged in.  If it's unplugged I get a blank screen.
[01:02] <poena> are there 10.10 issues with broadcom wifi? i'm installing on my other laptop now and someone had asked me that before when i was installed on my netbook
[01:03] <Exurgency> poena, I've been having wifi issues as well.
[01:03] <poena> on broadcom?
[01:03] <poena> or in general
[01:03] <d3v0> my plugin seems to be buggy when trying to play youtube clips
[01:03] <Exurgency> RaLink, in this instance.
[01:03] <d3v0> fore firefox
[01:03] <mondragon> Is there a place where I can still get 9.10 isos?
[01:03] <Exurgency> mondragon, assuming most torrent sites still carry it.
[01:04] <d3v0> any ideas?
[01:04] <d3v0> i constantly have to refresh the page
[01:04] <mondragon> Exurgency: how about not with bittorrent?
[01:04] <Exurgency> d3v0, are you running 32 or 64 bits?
[01:04] <d3v0> 32
[01:04] <Sean93> how do i check a new hard drive to make sure its not faulty?
[01:04] <d3v0> Sean93 under system look for disk utility
[01:04] <Exurgency> mondragon, give me a sec. Whereabout are you? I'll try to get you a local server
[01:05] <mondragon> northern california
[01:05] <Exurgency> d3v0, I hate flash. : P But try removing the plugin and putting it back.
[01:05] <d3v0> hmm
[01:05] <Aer> mondragon,  i think you can get it here http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.10/
[01:05] <ekristen> good evening, I am currently running 9.10, 10.04+ does not see my hard drive when trying to install from hard drive
[01:05] <mondragon> aer: hah, awesome, thanks
[01:06] <Aer> np :)
[01:06] <ekristen> would there be a problem with upgrading from within 9.10?
[01:06] <Exurgency> mondragon, any arch preference?
[01:06] <Exurgency> Oh there you go then.
[01:06] <mondragon> Exurgency: assuming this works, I should be good.. :-)
[01:06] <mondragon> (hopefully x86_64....a question I forgot to ask the user)
[01:07] <Aer> ?
[01:07] <Sean93> ubuntu isnt detecting my new hd
[01:07] <pigdude> something is really wrong with my setup though
[01:07] <pigdude> it is constantly stopping
[01:07] <pigdude> completely
[01:07] <Aer> it has both there to download 32 bit and 64 bit
[01:07] <pigdude> like `ls` will take 5s
[01:07] <mondragon> aer: yeah, I just forgot to ask the person who reported this problem if they were using 32 or 64-bit
[01:07] <pigdude> I think it's a display refresh issue
[01:07] <Aer> ahh ok
[01:07] <pigdude> because if I do alt-tab the display refreshes
[01:07] <mondragon> aer: my brain tends to forget that 32-bit still exists.. :-)
[01:07] <Aer> lol xD
[01:08] <sporkboy> okay, so... xorg nvidia drivers.... if I used 260, I get complaints about a version mismatch, if I use 256, Xorg crashes.
[01:08] <eut> hello
[01:08] <Aer> shh I still use 32 bit :P
[01:08] <eut> in lucid how am i supposed to make the system update its name server information?
[01:08] <eut> resolvconf is not installed by default
[01:08] <sporkboy> (in maverick, btw)
[01:08] <eut> is there some new way to update the name servers?
[01:09] <Sean93>  ubuntu isnt detecting my new hd
[01:09] <Aer> Sean93, you have 2 hd's in your comp now ?
[01:09] <Sean93> i have 2 internal and 2 external
[01:09] <Sean93> the new one is a 1TB spinpoint F3 internal
[01:10] <Aer> if the one it doesnt pick up is internal make sure both hard drives arent set to master
[01:10] <Aer> i think if both drives are set as the master drive it will conflict like that
[01:10] <digitalstimulus> Any sane gurus here?  Sane as in xsane / simple-scan
[01:10] <eut> Sean93, `fdisk -l' to view all of the disks your system knows abuot
[01:10] <Sean93> how do i set them? one is ide and one is sata
[01:10] <Aer> but im not to sure since im still new to ubuntu myself
[01:11] <Aer> hmm i think sata doesnt need setting just ide its usually a small jumper clip type of thing in the back of the drive
[01:11] <tacomaster> i was wondering is there a way to get rid of rescue mode?
[01:11] <Aer> with an image above showing where it has to be to set it to master and slave etc
[01:11] <nikola> Sean93, also System -Administration - Disk utility, check does disk show there
[01:11] <Exurgency> tacomaster, just getting rid of the entry in grub?
[01:12] <tacomaster> Exurgency: ok ty
[01:12] <Sean93> its not in disk utility
[01:12] <digitalstimulus> Sean93 it shouldn't matter if one is ide and the other is sata.  The IDE should be set to Master or Single, or Cable Select (default)
[01:12] <eyesofibad> Hey everyone.  10.04 netbook works fine on my netbook, except for a few minor glitches.  I tried to upgrading to 10.1 and now it won't boot.  After some forum searching, it looks like I need to compile a kernel...  Is that something I would need to be in 10.1 to do?  http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9960595&postcount=172
[01:12] <Aer> but if the ide drive is the one with ubuntu installed i think you should leave it if its booting up
[01:12] <Sean93> the ide has ubuntu on it
[01:12] <Sean93> the sata is the new drive
[01:13] <nikola> eyesofibad, tried fixing grub?
[01:13] <digitalstimulus> Sean93 does the bios see the sata drive?
[01:13] <Exurgency> eyesofibad, did you run 10.10 live before installing it?
[01:13] <eyesofibad> not yet
[01:13] <nikola> give it a shot
[01:13] <eyesofibad> yes, and it ran fine
[01:13] <Sean93> digitalstimulus: i'm not sure
[01:14] <Exurgency> eyesofibad, when you say it won't boot, it just hangs, or...?
[01:14] <eut> Sean93, run the command: `fdisk -l'. it will list all connected disks. its it doesnt show up then its probably not connected correctly
[01:14] <allquixotic> A friend with a Windows laptop wants to install Ubuntu to a USB HDD, putting GRUB on the USB HDD and not touching any bits whatsoever on the internal HDD. She would then boot the external HDD by using the BIOS's manual boot selection menu. I have confirmed USB HDDs can be booted with this BIOS. What is the most painless set of instructions I can provide for installing Ubuntu 10.10 to the USB HDD in this case?
[01:15] <Sean93> nothing happens when i run fdisk -l
[01:15] <eyesofibad> It puts me in busybox
[01:15] <digitalstimulus> Sean93, try rebooting and press your bios entry key, Usually Del, F2, F1, or something similar
[01:15] <eut> Sean93, whoops, you need to run with root: `sudo fdisk -l'
[01:15] <Aer> try 'sudo fdisk 0l'
[01:15] <pigdude> yea this system is hosed
[01:15] <Aer> lol im too slow :(
[01:15] <Exurgency> allquixotic, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent seems like a good place to start.
[01:15] <pigdude> it's so unresponsive i can't useit
[01:16] <digitalstimulus> Your BIOS will show what drives it sees.  If your BIOS doesn't see it, nothing else will
[01:16] <Sean93> ok it worked but i have no idea what it means
[01:16] <ubuntu> i tinkered with nvidia drivers and now my system hangs and wont start?
[01:16] <eut> Sean93, there is a clause for each storage device: http://codepad.org/27OGcBYS
[01:17] <Sean93> im going to reboot
[01:17] <Sean93> brb
[01:17] <eut> Sean93, in that paste there are two disks, each clause starts with "Disk /dev/...."
[01:17] <n207go> i tinkered with nvidia drivers and now my system hangs and wont start?
[01:17] <nikola> n207go, try rescue mode, helped me
[01:17] <eut> meh.
[01:17] <Sean93> there are three disks show but im dupposed to have 4
[01:17] <n207go> how do i start rescue mode?
[01:18] <Sean93> supposed*
[01:18] <Exurgency> n207go, iirc, boot with your ubuntu media.
[01:18] <nikola> on grub menu, it is right under ubuntu u usually start
[01:18] <Exurgency> Also what nikola said.
[01:19] <n207go> It goes from system start to Ubuntu no Grub
[01:19] <Exurgency> Then take my option, n207go
[01:19] <n207go> ok i am booted from live cd now. now what??
[01:20] <nikola> :)
[01:20] <sporkboy> this nvidia stuff is a huge headache
[01:20] <n207go> ik
[01:20] <__cool__> oh by the way. how do i find out if i have a sata or non-sata harddrive in my notebook?
[01:20] <Dulak> sporkboy: be grateful you aren't on ati then
[01:21] <n207go> so what do i do??
[01:21] <n207go> i am so confused :(
[01:21] <nikola> __cool__, there is system -administration, disk utility
[01:21] <KM0201> __cool__, how old is the notebook?
[01:21] <__cool__> KM0201: about 1.5y, but it's kinda special
[01:21] <Exurgency> n207go, http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-boot-ubuntu-linux-rescue-mode/
[01:22] <KM0201> __cool__, well, like was ssaid above, disk utility will tell you.. but 1.5yrs, it's probably sata
[01:22] <nikola> n207go, i cant help you with that, and you could proobably goole your way to fix that
[01:22] <digitalstimulus> sporkboy, ubuntu has made it quite easy with the hardware drivers
[01:22] <sporkboy> digitalstimulus, have they? then how do I get this thing working?
[01:22] <nikola> Exavion, that is only in alternative cd, afaik
[01:23] <sporkboy> Xorg crashes if I enable it
[01:23] <ChrisBuchholz> Hey guys. I'm having trouble with gparted on maverick. It crashes instantly everytime i launch it. I see on google that others experience it too, but i cant find a solution. How do i fix it+
[01:23] <RudyValencia> !resetpanel
[01:23] <ziddy> hi
[01:23] <LoJuRu> !hi | ziddy
[01:23] <galerien> Hi guys, I'm not sure it's the right channel, but I'm using ubuntu so, just tel me ^^ : I need to find all the lines with SMTP in a log file using awk, can anyone help me ? (just like a link or the regular expression... ?)
[01:23] <digitalstimulus> sporkboy, System - Hardware Drivers
[01:23] <kellnola> ChrisBuchholz, strace it
[01:23] <n207go> i am so confused kk i try that
[01:23] <galerien> !hi | galerien
[01:24] <yonahw> hey I don't know if anyone saw what I posted earlier but I am having considerable trouble trying to get my webcam working with 10.04.1 64bit.
[01:24] <__cool__> KM0201: hm, well, what should i look for in disk utility? i have another notebook *with sata*, only there is ubunt 9.04 on it without disk-utility, so i cannot compare... i do not find 'sata' anywhere
[01:24] <dublisk> Hi, has anyone got ZSNES to work on ubuntu ? (I'm on 10.10)
[01:24] <sporkboy> digitalstimulus, it's enabled but not in use. when I do nvidia-xconfig to enable it, xorg crashes on startup.
[01:24] <Nikyo> Oooo Znes.. I remember that Emy
[01:24] <Nikyo> Emu
[01:24] <dublisk> There doesn't seem to be an ubuntu package for it
[01:24] <KM0201> __cool__, well, usually it will have a "Sata Adapter" there.. ad show what is plugged in there.. it will usually show an IDE adapter, and what is plugged in there
[01:24] <nikola> n207go, http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/alternative-download#alternate
[01:25] <nikola> yay
[01:25] <ChrisBuchholz> kellnola: it seems this bug is what i am experiencing, and since its not fixed, I guess i'm doomed? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+bug/617885
[01:25] <__cool__> KM0201: 'location: port 1 of PATA' <- that Parallel, not SATA i think...
[01:25] <KM0201> __cool__, i would agree.
[01:26] <sporkboy> digitalstimulus, I've tried current and 173, and manually installing 256 and 260. I'm loading another alternate ppa to see if that works. any other ideas?
[01:26] <__cool__> KM0201: oki... so now kn know which kinda sdd to look for, thanks
[01:26] <KM0201> np
[01:26] <digitalstimulus> sporkboy, have you checked for xorg errors?
[01:26] <RudyValencia> Why do my GNOME panels not appear at startup?
[01:26] <ChrisBuchholz> Is there any other partition manager other than gparted available to ubuntu that is any good?
[01:26] <kellnola> ChrisBuchholz, cfdisk works for me
[01:27] <sporkboy> digitalstimulus, no errors in the xorg log now, but I can see it crashing in the kernel log.
[01:27] <Nikyo> Is anyone running Ubuntu 10.10 on a Pentium 3 here?
[01:27] <nikola> ChrisBuchholz, tried live Gparted?
[01:28] <KM0201> ChrisBuchholz, whats wrong w/ gparted?.. it works great
[01:28] <ziddy> somebody  here Know How use nc???????????????
[01:28] <ChrisBuchholz> kellnola: ill try it
[01:29] <ChrisBuchholz> nikola: i am not able to use a usb disk nor cd/dvd at the moment
[01:29] <KM0201> ChrisBuchholz, the Gparted Live CD, is the same thing as Ubuntu's live CD.. so if you're having problems w/ one, downloading another isn't going to fix it
[01:29] <ChrisBuchholz> KM0201: it doesnt work for me on maverick
[01:29] <galerien> Hi guys, I'm not sure it's the right channel, but I'm using ubuntu so, just tel me ^^ : I need to find all the lines with SMTP in a log file using awk, can anyone help me ?
[01:29] <ziddy> Por DIos alguien aqui sabe hablar espa├▒ol???????????
[01:29] <nikola> !es
[01:29] <KM0201> ChrisBuchholz, if you can't use a CD or USB, how do you expect to use it?
[01:29] <ChrisBuchholz> KM0201: it crashes instantly
[01:29] <ChrisBuchholz> KM0201: through ubuntu
[01:29] <KM0201> ChrisBuchholz, you can't partition a drive in use
[01:30] <KM0201> (assuming you're using the drive w/ your ubuntu install)
[01:30] <KM0201> ChrisBuchholz, if you're going to partition the drive, you'll need to do it from a live cd/usb
[01:30] <KM0201> unless the drive isn't in use.
[01:30] <digitalstimulus> sporkboy, unfortunately I am on a handheld device and my thumbs don't type so fast
[01:30] <ChrisBuchholz> KM0201: oh, what i meant, i am not able to boot from usb on my macbook pro, and i dont have any empty cds/dvds available
[01:31] <nikola> ChrisBuchholz, fdisk and lots of reading
[01:31] <ziddy> gracias ubottu
[01:31] <digitalstimulus> sporkboy, is this a fresh install
[01:31] <ChrisBuchholz> nikola: damnit
[01:31] <KM0201> ChrisBuchholz, the problem still stands, the drive canno tbe mounted while you attempt to resize it.
[01:31] <nikola> and as KM0201 said, live it or you cant edit partition in use
[01:31] <KM0201> fdisk isn't gonna fix the problem either
[01:32] <ChrisBuchholz> KM0201: i am able to use usb disk just as is :P
[01:32] <KM0201> ChrisBuchholz, open a terminal and type gksudo gparted  and ssee what output you get when it crashes
[01:32] <ChrisBuchholz> KM0201: this is the bug that suits me: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+bug/617885
[01:33] <sporkboy> digitalstimulus, no. installed at 9.04. gonna try this new driver.
[01:33] <nikola> ChrisBuchholz, depends on what you want to do, Disk utility could help you
[01:34] <KM0201> ChrisBuchholz, i still don't understand what you think you're going to do to a disk, when the disk is mounted
[01:34] <nikola> system a- dministration - disk utility
[01:35] <ChrisBuchholz> KM0201: i'm gonna partionate an external usb disk.
[01:35] <ChrisBuchholz> KM0201: its no problem since its not in use
[01:35] <KM0201> ChrisBuchholz, gotcha.
[01:35] <digitalstimulus> sporkboy, sometimes it's faster to backup your /home and start fresh.  Ubuntu wipe for me took about 30 mins.  You don't learn as much that way though :)
[01:35] <ChrisBuchholz> nikola: i gave it a spin, but it didnt seem capable
[01:36] <nikola> what you want to do, ChrisBuchholz
[01:36] <nikola> sorry, didnt see last line
[01:36] <ChrisBuchholz> nikola: np
[01:36] <KM0201> ChrisBuchholz, there's another partition editor in the repos
[01:36] <KM0201> it's for KDE i think.. you'll probably need a ton of dependencies if you don't have KDE
[01:37] <SoulShadow> ewww kde
[01:37] <OddJoe> anyone know how to remove webcam studio?
[01:37] <ChrisBuchholz> KM0201: damn...
[01:38] <ChrisBuchholz> How come gparted is broken in maverick and NO BODY has fixed it yet...
[01:38] <ChrisBuchholz> it has been broken since the betas, so wtf...
[01:38] <nikola> ChrisBuchholz, i just started my external usb disk, i see it, i can format it and create partitions with disk utility
[01:39] <ChrisBuchholz> nikola: really? How would you go about editing the existing partitions?
[01:39] <nikola> click on image
[01:40] <nikola> you have tools up and down of disc picture in disk utility, ChrisBuchholz
[01:40] <yonahw> can anyone please help me get my Logitech QuickCam working? I have been working on this for a while now and getting nowhere.
[01:40] <ChrisBuchholz> nikola: i see now. Lots of stuff was outside view-area because the window was not maximized:D

[01:42] <nertil> how to install fonts on ubuntu maverick
[01:43] <ChrisBuchholz> nikola: wtf... Its definetly not as good as gparted - it asked it to format the drive, it errored and can now not read - thus not perform on - the drive :D
[01:43] <KM0201> antIP, that looks like Openbox.
[01:43] <Luig1> Hi. I'd like it very much if Yelp would *not* come up every time I press F1. Is there a way that I can suppress this behaviour?
[01:43] <nikola> are you sure you are on usb disk? also, unmount
[01:44] <OddJoe> kmb201: through a deb file on there website.
[01:44] <arvut__> stop pressing F1
[01:44] <gbillings> nertil, elaborate.
[01:44] <Luig1> I'd like to be able to use F1 for other things.
[01:44] <nikola> ChrisBuchholz, make sure you unmount the disk first, and also, dont format wrong one
[01:44] <g0tcha> F1
[01:44] <ChrisBuchholz> nikola: yeah. Ubuntu cant mount it, so thats not the issue :D
[01:44] <arvut__> !F1
[01:44] <arvut__> hmm
[01:44] <yonahw> no love for my webcam folks?
[01:44] <antIP> KM0201: Ok. I've seen shots of open box that were a little more graphical than that, but I'm sure with a little tweaking it could be open box. It looks great. I much prefer it to other DEs.
[01:45] <n207go> ok in recovery mode, or whatever this is called, how do i either repair nVidia drivers, or initialize the default graphics drivers??
[01:45] <nikola> you lost me now there, ChrisBuchholz ...
[01:45] <arvut__> well maybe you can work out a rebind or a new keyboard setup?
[01:45] <KM0201> antIP, yeah, *think* it's openbox
[01:45] <KM0201> it could be Flux also
[01:45] <akatosh> hello everybody.  I'm trying to get ubuntu 10.1 to recognize just my TV connected via s-video  without needing a VGA monitor.
[01:45] <irul> I want to ask how activation of the visual effects in xubuntu anyone know baseball ??????????
[01:46] <Luig1> arwut__: F1 isn't even listed in my keyboard shortcuts, I think Yelp is intercepting it from other applications somehow.
[01:46] <irul> I want to ask how activation of the visual effects in xubuntu anyone know baseball ??????????
[01:46] <Luig1> Is this some sort of official Gnome policy?
[01:46] <n207go> ok in recovery mode, or whatever this is called, how do i either repair nVidia drivers, or initialize the default graphics drivers??
[01:46] <sporkboy> ok: here's my xorg log showing the problem with nvidia enabled.
[01:47] <antIP> KM0201: Is there a way to get rid of the icons next to the text in gnome menus and panels? Or turn icon indicators into text instead?
[01:48] <WFeather> Is there a way to disable just the finger touch screen in Ubuntu 10.10, while leaving the digitizer active on a Tablet PC?
[01:48] <poena> has anyone had broadcom wifi issues with 10.10?
[01:48] <sporkboy> n207go, I'm working with the same thing. I've found that with no /etc/X11/xorg.conf, it boots into vesa mode just fine (after I installed xserver-xorg-video-vesa)
[01:49] <poena> sudo iwconfig sees my wireless card, but its not picking up via gui
[01:49] <xphlak> hello
[01:49] <arvut__> luig1: unless you can find a way to bind it to something else then I suggest looking into the programming of your keyboard driver and se if you can modify it. I wouldn't bother tho as help can be useful if you get stuck
[01:49] <William> hi
[01:49] <dominicdinada> what are some .fla editors for linux ?
[01:49] <dijonyummy> i'm trying to partition my hd for dual boot. i'm thinking its okay to give a bit more to my windows 7 partition, because i can easily mount and access file on it when linux is booted, but not the other way around. is that what you guys think and do?
[01:49] <KM0201> antIP, i'm gonna guess, prboably somewhere in gconf-editor
[01:49] <yonahw> webcam is listed as /dev/video0 gstreamer-properties says under both v4l and v4l2 "Could not open device '
[01:50] <KM0201> but i wouldn't have the slightest idea where to look
[01:50] <n207go> is there any command that can just wipe out nvidia and reinitialize the default?
[01:50] <yonahw> /dev/video0' for reading and writing
[01:50] <sled> hello
[01:50] <sled> somehow I removed the "me" button from the gnome panel, the one with the user icon which is normally on the right side after the calendar
[01:50] <sled> how can I get it back?
[01:50] <dominicdinada> dijonyummy: my suggestion would be use the space hog of the auto backup drive all computer mfgers put on now as your linux drive :) usually they are 10 gig or so
[01:51] <Luig1> arvut__ :It's annoying me because some games I use ask for F1... and Yelp doesn't seem to have any preferences to stop triggering on that key :( Thanks for the help, though.
[01:51] <astropirate> Hello all. My software index seems to be broke, and i can't fix it. When i do "sudo ap-get install -f"   i get the following:  http://pastie.org/1226753 .    p.s i also have kde installed on my ubuntu box
[01:51] <WFeather> Is there a way to disable just the finger touch screen in Ubuntu 10.10, while leaving the digitizer active on a Tablet PC?
[01:51] <dominicdinada> er auto restore drive
[01:51] <sporkboy> n207go, you can try removing xserver-xorg-video-nv and xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
[01:51] <n207go> how?
[01:52] <sporkboy> n207go, but just removing the xorg.conf was what did it for me.
[01:52] <n207go> ok
[01:52] <demonspork> I am trying to compile something that needs libboost-all package installed, but all I see in the repository is libboost-all-dev and that doesn't seem to cut it when I go to compile. What am I missing here?
[01:52] <n207go> kk
[01:53] <sporkboy> n207go, try: sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf    if that doesn't work, try sudo aptitude remove xserver-xorg-video-nv xserver-xorg-video-nouveau; sudo aptitude install xserver-xorg-video-vesa
[01:53] <eeeris> i have a question regarding on how can i install gyachi...anyone? im using lucid.

[01:53] <dijonyummy> 10gb not quite enough
[01:54] <ChrisBuchholz> nikola: ah great. Neither parted og fdisk can now see my usb drive. Its like its dead or something
[01:54] <yonahw> can anybody hear me? I have not received any response to my numerous requests for assistance. I understand if noone knows how to help me but I am starting to think nobody actually is seeing my messages.
[01:54] <PaulNM> Last night I started an upgrade to 10.10 from 10.04 before going to bed. This morning I looked at the screen and it looks like the window manager got shut down, I see the windows, but no title bars. As a result, I can't switch to a prompt window to continue the upgrade.
[01:54] <chu_> yonahw: ys
[01:54] <yonahw> chu_: thanks for the confirmation

[01:56] <MonthOLDpickle> what command for extras is it apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras

[01:56] <n207go> ty ty ty
[01:56] <WFeather> dijonymummy, i have an 80 gig SSD, 60 to Windows, the last 20 to Ubuntu
[01:57] <poena> has anyone come across broadcom wifi issues with 10.10? New install saying "firmware missing" under Wireless Networks
[01:57] <nikola> ChrisBuchholz, then try it on another computer, if it fails there...
[01:57] <poena> wired/ethernet doesnt work either...
[01:58] <greezmunkey> dijonyummy: you can always try downloading VMware player, and run ubuntu in it. I'm running that combo now, and so far it runs well.
[01:58] <astropirate> how can i remove a brocken software?
[01:58] <MonthOLDpickle> poena broadcom always has issues if you goto the ubuntu group on google there might be some answers
[01:58] <izinucs> dijonyummy: vmware can be heavy.. try virtualbox.org.. lighter.. easier
[01:58] <WFeather> Is there a way to disable just the finger touch screen in Ubuntu 10.10, while leaving the digitizer active on a Tablet PC?
[01:59] <MonthOLDpickle> poena what laptop are you using?
[01:59] <dijonyummy> so you guys truly keep your data files, videos, software installs, music, etc, on a separate hd?
[01:59] <poena> its an older gateway mx8711, c2d 1.6ghz
[01:59] <poena> i know, shame on me for buying a gateway
[01:59] <poena> its all i could afford at the time :/
[01:59] <WFeather> depends on the install djungelkraem
[01:59] <greezmunkey> izinucs: that may be true, but in bridged mode it seems to act like a seperate partition. I plan to upgrade it to workstation soon as well.
[01:59] <MonthOLDpickle> I got a dell mini 9 for 120 lol
[02:00] <WFeather> on my desktop yes.....tablet no, only one drive
[02:00] <izinucs> dijonyummy: not always.. but better to keep your /home in a separate partition.. the largest..
[02:00] <WFeather> anyone? - Is there a way to disable just the finger touch screen in Ubuntu 10.10, while leaving the digitizer active on a Tablet PC?
[02:00] <dm1try> hey guys, can somebody help with installing a script?
[02:01] <izinucs> greezmunkey: in vbox?  but if you are upgrading to workstation (as a paid alternative) then it would make sense to start with player.. never had issues with vbox in bridged mode.
[02:01] <eeeris> digitalstimulus: eeeris, why gyachi?  Empathy works pretty well-i need video/call to YM.
[02:01] <antIP> KM0201: actually, it looks like that was CWM: a lightweight and efficient window manager for X11. Similar to evilwm
[02:02] <astropirate> my software index is broken, and i can't fix it. When i do "sudo ap-get install -f"   i get the following:  http://pastie.org/1226753 .    p.s i also have kde installed on my ubuntu box
[02:02] <dijonyummy> cool thanks all
[02:02] <izinucs> astropirate: it's sudo apt-get -f install
[02:02] <astropirate> izinucs: same effect
[02:02] <greezmunkey> izinucs: no, I am running VMware player on win7. Ubuntu runs as a vm. i will be upgrading to workstation next payday.
[02:03] <astropirate> it gave me the same output
[02:03] <WFeather> Is there a way to run the Unity skin/overlay overtop of a regular install of Ubuntu 10.10?
[02:03] <dm1try> hey guys, can somebody help me with installing a script?
[02:04] <dijonyummy> the problem with /home is its linux only, so i'll make a medium size /home, and a larger data partition both windows and linux can access, how does that sound
[02:04] <yonahw> astropirate: your error seems to suggest some problem with kde. what happens if you issue "cd /us/share/kubuntu-default-settings"?
[02:04] <PaulNM> Last night I started an upgrade to 10.10 from 10.04 before going to bed. This morning I looked at the screen and it looks like the window manager got shut down, I see the windows, but no title bars. As a result, I can't switch to a prompt window to continue the upgrade.
[02:04] <greezmunkey> izinucs: heavy is fine, this laptop has an i7, 8GB ram, 500 GB 7200 rpm HDD, so it runs well.
[02:04] <izinucs> greezmunkey: yea. I got that.. like I said .. I've never had issues with vbox in bridged mode myself..
[02:04] <astropirate> yonahw, it doesn't exist
[02:05] <yonahw> astropirate: that is why you can't install software. are you running kubuntu or just installed kde in regular ubuntu?
[02:05] <dejaview> ininucs: are you wired or wireless
[02:05] <izinucs> astropirate: try this all in one line .. sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[02:05] <izinucs> dejaview: depends on the machine.. right now wireless
[02:06] <yonahw> PaulNM: can you try going to ctrl-alt-F1 and then ctrl-alt-F7 maybe it will revive itself that has worked for me before

[02:06] <dijonyummy> what is i make my /home partition ntfs? then windows can also see it? is that a good idea?
[02:06] <nikola> dijonyummy, no
[02:06] <dm1try> is there a certain way to ask for help here
[02:06] <astropirate> yonahw, i'm running regular old ubunut but i wanted to try KDE also so i installed that as well.   and it doesn't matter if i install something or remove it always gets in the way and i can't do anything
[02:07] <WFeather> Does anyone know if it is possible to put the Unity Overlay/Interface on a regular Ubuntu 10.10 install? Also Can you disable just the touch feature and use the digitizer on a Tablet PC?
[02:07] <izinucs> dijonyummy: no.. you shouldn't do that.. if you need windows access make /home ext3 and then install the ext3 driver in windows
[02:07] <nikola> izinucs, or he could just have some middle fat32/ntfs partition
[02:07] <gdawgrancid> Got a couple of problems I've been having for a while.  I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 and the internet seems to cut out every now and then for a few minutes.  This has happened at 3 different locations, including my school campus, and has happened when connected to a wireless network or with an ethernet cable
[02:07] <yonahw> astropirate: I would try what izinucs mentioned
[02:07] <astropirate> yonahw, and i tried what  you wrote in one line and it just gave me the same error
[02:07] <astropirate> woops sorry izinucs said that not you :p
[02:08] <izinucs> nikola: yes.. preferably ntfs over fat32.. at least then he'll have journaling
[02:08] <dijonyummy> is there a good free ext3 driver for windows 7
[02:08] <Blue1> izinucs: i have found it never a good idea to let windows play with any linux fs.
[02:08] <astropirate> i tried it and it gave me the same error. the brocken package got in the way
[02:08] <izinucs> dijonyummy: not sure about 7 but xp sure.. google
[02:08] <PaulNM> yonahw: I've been doing that. For some reason xterm will open, but I can't type in it.  So i had to go to another console and write a simple script to start matacity, which fails.
[02:08] <gdawgrancid> Also, I've sometimes had a problem where I'm typing something and the text highlights itself and everything I try typing after that will pretty much just erase itself.  It stops if I click a few times on some other part of the screen, but its getting pretty annoying at this point
[02:08] <Blue1> izinucs: and you can create samba shares, it's what I do.
[02:08] <yonahw> astropirate: I am certainly no expert but I think your problem stems from Ubuntu assuming you are running kubuntu since you are running kde. Have you tried apt under gnome?
[02:09] <izinucs> Blue1: yep
[02:09] <yonahw> PaulNM: sorry, I am really quite the noob myself. Not sure how to help you.
[02:09] <WFeather> Does anyone know if it is possible to put the Unity Overlay/Interface on a regular Ubuntu 10.10 install? Also Can you disable just the touch feature and use the digitizer on a Tablet PC?
[02:09] <n207go> what is best driver for nvidia graphics card (old), that will just work, and run fps ok?
[02:09] <WFeather> 173
[02:09] <astropirate> yonahw, i am running under gnome atm i think i like it better.
[02:10] <izinucs> yonahw: astropirate apt under kde shouldn't make any difference.. but if you're trying to remove a kde-gtk program and a program that uses that is open then you'd have issues.
[02:10] <yonahw> astropirate: have you tried removing kde and seeing where that goes?
[02:10] <WFeather> Does anyone know if it is possible to put the Unity Overlay/Interface on a regular Ubuntu 10.10 install? Also Can you disable just the touch feature and use the digitizer on a Tablet PC?
[02:11] <izinucs> astropirate: what are you attempting.. remove kde? if so then boot into gnome and then follow the link I'll have ubottu give you
[02:11] <izinucs> !puregnome
[02:11] <izinucs> astropirate: see the link above
[02:11] <fishcooker> is there java_programming_chatroom?
[02:11] <WFeather> come on really? i've asked the same dam question 12 times not even a hold on....several have joined after and received a response.....
[02:11] <WFeather> Does anyone know if it is possible to put the Unity Overlay/Interface on a regular Ubuntu 10.10 install? Also Can you disable just the touch feature and use the digitizer on a Tablet PC?
[02:11] <astropirate> izinucs, no i'm not trying to remove kde, I read somewhere that i could have both working fine side by side. I'm just trying to remove this one broken package
[02:12] <izinucs> WFeather: well maybe nobody knows the answer!
[02:12] <WFeather> maybe
[02:12] <yonahw> izinucs: do you know anything about getting a webcam to work. I can't seem to get mine to work although it is listed under /dev/video0
[02:12] <WFeather> maybe a i dont know could help ;)
[02:12] <izinucs> astropirate: which package again?
[02:12] <KyleMcMozart> you have to have drivers for the webcam to work
[02:12] <izinucs> yonahw: sorry no
[02:13] <yonahw> KyleMcMozart: how can I find the appropriate drivers?
[02:13] <astropirate> izinucs,  kcm-gtk-kde4    it's a package i installed from the repo to make GTK applications look better under KDE
[02:13] <KyleMcMozart> Does anyone know about how I would find a Java chat (Learning Java that is)
[02:14] <izinucs> astropirate: well... besides that package do you have kde and gnome installed right now?
[02:14] <KyleMcMozart> yonahw: im not sure it depends I guess on the type of camera, check the manufactures website hopefully they supprt linux if not the you might have to reverse engineer a driver from the windows driver
[02:15] <yonahw> KyleMcMozart: it's logitech and they don't support linux
[02:15] <izinucs> !webcam | yonahw
[02:15] <yonahw> izinucs: been there. says it should work but this is not the case
[02:15] <michaelxq> hello, i have a problem with my (built-in) camera. Cananyone help me?
[02:16] <rww> KyleMcMozart: ##java exists, but you'd have to register with nickserv to get in
[02:16] <deena> Hi
[02:16] <gdawgrancid> Anyone know why I might be randomly losing my connection, while still being connected to the internet?  Usually a couple of times during the day, every page I try to open won't load and I have to just wait for a few minutes before I have access to the internet.
[02:16] <izinucs> astropirate: can you switch between the two on boot? or do things hang because of this package?
[02:16] <deena> I want to remove nautilus elementary.. it is not working fine in my desktop...
[02:17] <astropirate> izinucs,   yes i have both installed. I am currently on Gnome,  but i can switch if i log out and i can log back into KDE
[02:17] <deena> any idea how to remove those ?
[02:17] <izinucs> astropirate: is the broken package causing issues?
[02:17] <astropirate> izinucs, yes. it's not KDE or Gnome, it's that package
[02:18] <ellimist8> #searchengines
[02:18] <michaelxq> deena, try synaptic package manager
[02:18] <greezmunkey> gdawgrancid: Is your network adapter powering down, like going to sleep? Do you just leave the machine on and connected all of the time?
[02:19] <izinucs> astropirate: I read which package it was.. but is it causing issues? does it prevent something from working? or is it just one of those irritating niggly things you're trying to get rid of?
[02:19] <gdawgrancid> If its on, its connected.  I thought the problem might just be a wireless connection issue, but I've been using a wired connection the past few days and its the same thing
[02:20] <michaelxq> hello, i have a problem with my (built-in) camera. Can anyone help me?
[02:20] <mawst> EAT IT

[02:31] <izinucs> n207go: you need the 96 series drive.. it's in system>admin>synaptic package manager.. search for nvidia.. look for the 96.x.x driver and if it's not installed then install it.. after that go to system > Admin > Hardware drivers and see if it's listed.. if so then tag it to activate.. reboot after.
[02:31] <izinucs> astropirate: sorry I'm stuck at this point.
[02:32] <n207go> ok ty ty

[02:36] <bluethundr> izinucs, that did it... odd that that comes out of the box in centos
[02:37] <astropirate> izinucs, this might be intresting when i did sudo dpkg --configure kcm-kde-gtk4  it says  "cannot configure (current status `half-installed')"
[02:37] <izinucs> bluethundr: :)
[02:37] <michaelxq> pksadiq, no

[02:44] <greezmunkey> virtu: add the user to the sudoers list
[02:44] <ilovefairuz> michaelxq: did you  previously install the module using these instructions?
[02:44] <virtu> greezmunkey, where is this list?
[02:44] <izinucs> virtu: what do they need to mount that isn't already?
[02:44] <michaelxq> ilovefairuz, i was about to tell you that...
[02:45] <michaelxq> ilovefairuz, i did installed the module and my camera used to work.
[02:45] <ilovefairuz> michaelxq: how did you install it?
[02:45] <virtu> izinucs, not at all, it s a script that will mount some ntfs partitions... so when the scripts runs it show that the user have access denied to mount command
[02:45] <michaelxq> ilovefairuz, as the instructions said
[02:45] <greezmunkey> virtu: should be /etc/sudoers
[02:45] <virtu> all permissions are ok (read and write)
[02:46] <virtu> greezmunkey, ok just added the username to taht file
[02:46] <pksadiq> michaelxq: try sudo modprobe uvcvideo
[02:46] <ilovefairuz> michaelxq: and it stopped working all of a sudden or after some upgrade?
[02:46] <pksadiq> michaelxq: and then open cheese or skype and try
[02:46] <michaelxq> ilovefairuz, after some upgrade.
[02:47] <izinucs> ilovefairuz: if it was a kernel upgrade that would make sense.. effectively making it "not installed".. install again

[02:53] <Sean93> are you sure?
[02:53] <TRC> hey, do any of you guys know if its kosher to remove empathy and evolution in 10.10
[02:53] <nikola> no, let me ask my magic ball...
[02:54] <TRC> i know in earlier versions that screwed up some stuff
[02:54] <Chaos2358> is there a way to send and recieve pics in empathy?
[02:54] <Sean93> -.-
[02:54] <TRC> empathy straight up sucks
[02:54] <TRC> i tried my best to use it, got sick of it, went back to pidgin
[02:54] <ilovefairuz> TRC: what stuff? it shouldn't screw anything
[02:54] <nikola> TRC, removed it two days ago, system working fine, here
[02:54] <SudoKing> it's not very empathic of my needs
[02:54] <TRC> i remember that it was related to the ubuntu-desktop metapackage
[02:54] <TRC> and would mess up indicator applet stuff
[02:54] <TRC> some other things
[02:55] <TRC> i want to remove evolution and empathy and rhythmbox
[02:55] <TRC> replace with thunderbird, pidgin and audacity
[02:55] <izinucs> TRC: try it.. see what happens and if it messes with stuff reinstall
[02:55] <izinucs> TRC: reinstall evo and emp. that is.
[02:55] <TRC> yeah thats what i figured >__>
[02:55] <TRC> lol
[02:55] <michaelxq_> ilovefairuz, works fine...thanks!
[02:55] <Noble> How can I change which icons are displayed on the desktop?
[02:55] <TRC> was just figuring someone in this IRC had already figured htat out, for some reason there wasnt much info on google about it
[02:55] <frumious> TRC, remove what you like.  Some packages are virtual just to pull in others. ubuntu-desktop is one.
[02:55] <Alan> Hmmm, gnome-shell is interesting...
[02:55] <ilovefairuz> michaelxq_: you're welcome
[02:56] <nikola> TRC, i have removed emphaty and rythmbox, installed some basic calendar and audicity
[02:57] <nikola> and it is working fine
[02:57] <TRC> thanks for hte info
[02:57] <TRC> ill just hope it doesnt mess up when its time to go to 11.04
[02:57] <TRC> :D
[02:57] <nikola> dont panic :p

[02:57] <michaelxq> ilovefairuz, one more question...does ubuntu 10.04 upgrade to 10.10 automatically or should i do it manually?
[02:58] <izinucs> New2Ubuntu: how 'bout with sudo? su really doesn't work
[02:58] <nickmoeck> New2Ubuntu: I don't think you can su or sudo at all during an scp session

[02:58] <ilovefairuz> michaelxq: manually but read this first http://www.linux-mag.com/id/7883
[02:59] <nikola> michaelxq, manually. go to update manager, update packages, then switch from LTS to normal, and check for updates again
[02:59] <izinucs> New2Ubuntu: you may need to reconfigure ssh to allow root access with sudo.. it is not that way out of the box.
[02:59] <kr1t> Hey All. Would you mind directing me to the right place to get some help with separate x screens with an nvidia card? I have a tv that has my desktop background, but did not require me to log into it separately nor can I launch or send programs to it.
[02:59] <Richiie> i got 2 servers in my appartment.. one of them has got an DNS that points to the ip outside so i can reach 1 of my servers
[02:59] <michaelxq> ilovefairuz, thanks again for the help
[02:59] <michaelxq> nikola, thanks for the info
[03:00] <Richiie> the other one i today installed bind9 on and configured it, whats next step so i can reach my 2.nd server from outisde my LAN ?
[03:00] <izinucs> kr1t: use nvidia-settings.. and twinview.  there are different settings for twinview
[03:00] <n207go> izinucs: I installed 96 but the game im trying to get working is really slow is there any way to fix this
[03:00] <kr1t> I have used nvidia-settings... and twinview does not do what I need it to. It still has invisible spots on the TV
[03:01] <izinucs> n207go: is the game running with "wine"?
[03:01] <greezmunkey> Richiie: What did you do on your firewall to get to the first server?
[03:01] <n207go> no
[03:01] <izinucs> n207go: what game?
[03:01] <n207go> Sauerbraten
[03:01] <New2Ubuntu> right, meant to say that.  Have tried  sudo /usr/lib/openssh/sftp-server in the sftp protocol options, sftp server window
[03:01] <ilovefairuz> Richiie: are they behind a NAT router? you need to configure it to open ports for both servers
[03:02] <n207go> FOSS First Person Shooter :D
[03:02] <izinucs> n207go: which one............
[03:02] <n207go> Sauerbraten
[03:02] <acer_> ?
[03:02] <ilovefairuz> Richiie: DNS servers (like bind or dnsmasq) won't help make them reachable from outside, if you don't have a static ip, use a dyamic ip service like dyndns
[03:03] <New2Ubuntu> get error Cannot initialize SFTP protocol. Is the host running a SFTP server?
[03:03] <Richiie> greezmunkey: nothing.. i got an no-ip.org domain on my first server
[03:03] <izinucs> n207go: lower the resolution and effects if possible.. it's an old video card so give it a chance
[03:03] <n207go> yea i did, but still really slow: it ran much better under Lucid
[03:03] <Richiie> ilovefairuz: okay but if i use dyndns on my second server.. will that crasch whit my first server that has got an no-ip.org domain pointing to my external IP ?
[03:03] <greezmunkey> Richiie: then do the same for the second server, like server1.domain.com, and server2.domain.com, see.
[03:03] <izinucs> n207go: and you have it activated? not just installed?
[03:04] <Richiie> greezmunkey: alright alright will try that
[03:04] <Richiie> greezmunkey: hope it works just afraid that it will crasch because both domains are pointing to my External ip
[03:04] <n207go> "this driver is activated but not currently in use."
[03:04] <ilovefairuz> Richiie: aren't they on the same networking sharing the same external IP address? no it won't "crash" the second, you just need to configure router to open ports for each one
[03:05] <n207go> izinucs: "this driver is activated but not currently in use."
[03:05] <Richiie> ilovefairuz: alright i will use dyndns then
[03:05] <izinucs> n207go: you looking in System>Admin>Hardware drivers?
[03:05] <Richiie> for the second one, and no-ip.org for the first one :P

[03:05] <izinucs> n207go: is there a little round dot to the left of the driver? click on the dot
[03:06] <ilovefairuz> Richiie: you don't need multiple domains or subdomains, you need to configure ports on the router
[03:06] <n207go> there is a dot
[03:06] <n207go> clicking is doing nothing
[03:06] <Richiie> ilovefairuz: ok but for example
[03:06] <Richiie> if we say i call my server 2 for zion.no-ip.org
[03:07] <n207go> clicking is doing nothing
[03:07] <Richiie> how on earth will my no-ip.org that points on my external IP know "aha we redirect the signal to server nr 2
[03:07] <izinucs> n207go: try this in a terminal.. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade .. all in one line.
[03:07] <ilovefairuz> Richiie: let's say you have an apache server running on each one, so configure the router's port  80 to pass traffic to server1  on port 80, and the router's port 8080 to pass traffic on port 80 on server2
[03:07] <Richiie> ilovefairuz: aaah okay
[03:07] <Richiie> u mean that way
[03:07] <Richiie> alright now i understand
[03:07] <n207go> izinucs: with the two dots?
[03:07] <izinucs> no
[03:08] <n207go> kk
[03:08] <izinucs> n207go: no dots.. those are just for conversational punctuation.
[03:08] <Richiie> ilovefairuz: but if i port forward different ports to both machines, i still need to fix an Domain name for my second server right
[03:08] <Richiie> ?
[03:08] <ilovefairuz> Richiie: you'll access them like that: http://example.noip.org (for server one) and http://example.noip.org:8080 (for server2)
[03:08] <n207go> oh ok
[03:08] <n207go> done
[03:08] <Richiie> ilovefairuz: aah rubbish that i need to write port nr for server 2 :(
[03:08] <ilovefairuz> Richiie: nope, one domain name is enough for both
[03:09] <Richiie> ilovefairuz: shouldnt it be easier to have like http://example.no-ip.org    http://example2.no-ip.org ?
[03:10] <n207go> izinucs: done

[03:47] <dhaivat> Hello. I just made the change from VGA to HDMI on my new  monitor, but I'm getting this really thick black border around  what I'm seeing (i.e ubuntu's desktop), what's going on and  how can I fix it?
[03:47] <smallfoot-> ubunchu says 10.04 then 9.10 its wrong!!!!
[03:47] <nikola> Guest536, say what model, what version, what settings, and maybe someone here can help, complaining wont help
[03:47] <smallfoot-> who made this comic??
[03:47] <Guest536> just did
[03:47] <rockets> I just noticed that my Ubuntu Netbook Edition install has an "ubuntu desktop edition" session. So netbook edition also installs the standard gnome desktop? Why
[03:47] <vozmem> This command /msg nickserv register faksjdlaksj abc@mail.com
[03:47] <Guest536> :)
[03:48] <reduz> Is there a way to report bugs anonymously? I'm fed up of forgetting my launchpad username/pass each time i file a bug so most time i don't even bother
[03:48] <Guest536> nikola,  im no computer g33k, im just a geek. :)
[03:48] <rww> vozmem: /join #freenode, ask there
[03:48] <chu_> vozmem: I've noted that when sending commands to nickserv I have to use uppercase, it might not be a fix, but try using REGISTER instead of register
[03:48] <rww> reduz: no
[03:48] <Dulak> rockets: because unity runs on top of the normal gnome environment, why not have the normal interface as an option?
[03:48] <nikola> im less then that, im totally new to ubuntu, learning as i go
[03:48] <Guest536> i try my best to explain
[03:48] <pksadiq> vozmem: try /msg nickserv help register
[03:49] <rockets> Dulak, I suppose.
[03:49] <dhaivat> anyone for my question?
[03:49] <ilovefairuz> reduz: nope, just use an email you actually use and you can reset your password
[03:49] <CtC> I'm encountering random freeze conditions (requiring forced power off); I've been scanning the logs but have yet to find a "smoking gun".  Any suggestions on pin-pointing the issue?
[03:49] <venilsurya> What should I do if anyone is disrespectful on one of the #ubuntu channels
[03:49] <ilovefairuz> venilsurya: #ubuntu-ops
[03:50] <reduz> ilovefairuz, but can't i somehow even configure it in my ubuntu installation so when i do ubuntu-bug i'm not asked for it?
[03:50] <jaason> ilovefairuz: did you get the url?
[03:50] <pksadiq> venilsurya: forgive him/her
[03:50] <ejv> venilsurya: type /ignore <nick>
[03:50] <nikola> pksadiq,  :)
[03:50] <pksadiq> nikola: YES, that is good, :)
[03:50] <nikola> turn the other cheek
[03:51] <nikola> m$ would love that
[03:51] <ilovefairuz> jaason:  ah yes, a package is missing, wait
[03:51] <venilsurya> pksadiq: Someone said that my brain is fried and I can't learn a programming language
[03:51] <jaason> ilovefairuz: alright, just checking, haha
[03:52] <venilsurya> You really want that to go unreported and let them do that to other people?
[03:52] <nikola> venilsurya, wasnt me, but you should take in option that, no matter how rude, that statement is maybe true
[03:52] <pksadiq> venilsurya: can't learn? nice joke, already our computer is filled with very nice programs, with trinaries( not even binaries)

[03:53] <Sean93> how do i make a bootable freeDOS usb?
[03:54] <venilsurya> nikola: Even if that statement was true, it's disrespectful
[03:54] <venilsurya> nikola: And so was yours
[03:54] <nikola> use ignore then..
[03:54] <Guest536> nikola,  whan i load up comiz setting manager, an click on advanced settings tab. A dialog comes up with a progress bar that freezes and on top it says, "loading Advanced Search". On the bottom of that dialog it says, "Moving Window" ....
[03:54] <Guest536> weird
[03:54] <dominicdinada> nikola: Bad syntax
[03:54] <CtC> Initially, I thought the random reboot (now random freeze condition) was related to bad memory, but tested with MemTest for several cycles (no errors)
[03:55] <venilsurya> Guest536: Compiz works fine on my maverick installation
[03:55] <nikola> i cant help you, Guest536 , it worked at first for me
[03:55] <geez> Hello ubuntu users, I have a MSI netbook with 9.10 Karmic running. I want to install 10.10 on a Toshiba satellite but on the ubuntu site all I see is desktop, netbook and server. Does ubuntu install on a regular laptop?
[03:55] <nikola> /ignore <username>
[03:55] <Sean93> how do i make a bootable freeDOS usb?
[03:56] <nikola> better, dominicdinada?
[03:56] <chu_> geez: I have desktop installed on my laptop
[03:56] <nikola> Sean93, tried that exact question with google?
[03:56] <chu_> geez: I don't think there are any issues.
[03:56] <Guest536> sigh
[03:56] <dominicdinada> nikola: no your syntax is bad
[03:56] <njero> is xorg.conf still used?
[03:56] <Sean93> yea all the guides are for like 2006
[03:56] <geez> Thnx, so just use the desktop as usual? No special config?
[03:56] <chu_> geez: Yeah that's all I did.
[03:56] <Guest536> then Synaptic will not let me install unsupported compiz plugins
[03:57] <geez> Thnx much again. :-D geez
[03:57] <Guest536> wich breaks compiz
[03:57] <DanaG> http://osdir.com/ml/rhythmbox-devel/2010-04/msg00034.html
[03:57] <CtC> I've been monitoring temp. and it stays stable.  I found a log entry related to NMI and VirtualBox, but was able to overcome that by upgrading perf_event_paranoid.  At that point, random reboot stopped.  Random freeze seems different and has only been an issue since installing 10.10
[03:57] <nikola> Sean93, what os are you using, i will google it for you
[03:57] <DanaG> I wish Linux would adopt FatELF support.
[03:57] <dominicdinada> Guest536: then why would you want to install bad plugins
[03:57] <Sean93> ubunut
[03:57] <DanaG> http://icculus.org/fatelf/
[03:57] <chu_> Guest536: surely they're unsupported for a reason? I don't understand how not supporting unsupported plugins is Canonical's fault.
[03:58] <Guest536> dominicdinada, synaptic is telling me to do so
[03:58] <DanaG> It's more likely a build dependency issue.
[03:58] <Guest536> to make my compiz work
[03:58] <DanaG> ABI change.
[03:58] <Guest536> o *brother*
[03:58] <dominicdinada> Guest536: and obviously unsupport plugins are not on topic in here and might check the plugin support or compiz and a dictonary
[03:58] <nikola> Sean93, just for you http://tuxtweaks.com/2009/05/create-a-bootable-usb-drive-ubuntu-freedos/
[03:59] <Guest536> but synaptic can be dominicdinada
[03:59] <Guest536> so..
[03:59] <gNewPower> Help!  the menus "applications" "places" and "system" have disappeared from my panel.  How do I get them back?  (Ubuntu 10.04

[04:00] <jaason> ilovefreeuz: okay i ran it, and it didnt have any errors, "ldconfig deferred processing now taking place", so should i run make?
[04:00] <chu_> gNewPower: scroll down the list until you find an entry titled "menu bar" with a comment about it being a custom bar, and add that
[04:00] <ChogyDan> Guest536: can you give specifics of your issue?  ie, package names, graphics card, commands used
[04:00] <dominicdinada> gNewPower: rightclick add new panel ?
[04:00] <gNewPower> thanks guys!!!
[04:01] <gNewPower> chu_, dominicdinada - that did the trick!
[04:01] <chu_> No worries

[04:02] <nikola> Sean, administrative, Disk utility
[04:02] <CtC> I've upgraded from 10.04 to 10.10, just wondering if a clean install would be a good next step (as I'd just have to move some virtual machines off the drive and wipe it).  I'd appreciate it if someone knows of a better next step before I spend the few hours.
[04:02] <ilovefairuz> nikola: these are two different applications: gparted and palimpsest
[04:03] <nikola> ilovefairuz, for what he needs, formating drive to fat16 and setting boot flag, disk utility will do

[04:10] <bros> ilovefairuz: Thank you. Do you know if there are images already made like this?
[04:10] <Sean93> nikola: where can i find odin1440.img? the link in the tutorial doesn't work
[04:10] <dominicdinada> ilovefairuz: right but the handlers are not added but i am thinking adding them to apache2.conf is the correct thing. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1131260

[04:12] <pipegeek> Is support for the geforce3 broken in maverick?  I just updated using the graphical update manager and, when the system rebooted, it dropped me to a CLI.
[04:12] <Sean93> nikola: i tried, i couldn't find it
[04:12] <pipegeek> It looks like the nvidia 96 drivers aren't compatible with xorg 1.9.  The "additional drivers" control panel happily installs it, and happily breaks X.
[04:12] <nikola> sorry, cant help you, Sean93
[04:12] <zhouhongguang> µ£ēµ▓Īµ£ēÕøĮõ║║’╝¤
[04:12] <ilovefairuz> jaason: whenever you find a missing library error (like those) try finding a package for them, so in this case: sudo apt-get install libsndfile1libsndfile1-dev
[04:12] <pipegeek> what gives?
[04:12] <ilovefairuz> !cn | zhouhongguang
[04:12] <Sean93> nikola: should i just use the one on the freedos site?

[04:13] <nikola> Sean93, probably
[04:13] <zhouhongguang> my god
[04:13] <Sean93> fdbasecd.iso or fdfullcd.iso?
[04:14] <pipegeek> ChogyDan: Well, if that's the case, there should be a giant warning in the upgrade process: "You don't have a video card compatible with maverick; this upgrade will render your system unusable if you're not technically inclined".
[04:14] <amin_> hi i want to know what is the exact name and root of all usb hard drives connected what command could I use?
[04:15] <ChogyDan> pipegeek: ya, I know.  :(
[04:15] <nikola> amin_, sudo fdisk -l
[04:15] <pipegeek> damn it.  I guess I downgrade and wait for 11.04
[04:16] <pipegeek> oooh... is there a ppa that provides an older xorg for maverick?
[04:16] <nankura> Hello, i have a question about ubuntu, i need an expert so pm me if you can help
[04:16] <nikola> i am trying to find media player that will show milliseconds in time, i need that for subtitle syncing. mplayer, vlc and some other dont have that in gui settings, i checked all, anyone did that with vlc maybe? but any media player would do
[04:17] <ChogyDan> pipegeek: well, I think nvidia is working on updating the driver
[04:17] <blakkheim> !pm | nankura
[04:17] <chu_> nankura: just ask in this channel, if someone can help they will
[04:17] <pipegeek> ChogyDan: That's good news!  I'd have assumed the 96 series was just dead in the water.  good for them
[04:17] <pipegeek> ok, back to nv for now
[04:17] <pipegeek> brb, fixing xorg.conf
[04:17] <vozmem> when i try "/msg register my_password my_email" -> "Unknown command; see /help for the available commands". HELP
[04:18] <nankura> ok basically, i just tried Linux Mint 9, and im dissapointed. ATi driver support is crappy. and its abit to simple, i heard its a remake of Ubuntu but ubuntu has more ATi card support for newer drivers and wine/games like mass effect 2/medal of honor etc
[04:18] <blakkheim> vozmem: you need to /msg nickserv
[04:18] <pipegeek> still.... should nvidia-96 be in maverick if it doesn't work?  There's no warning in the install process.
[04:18] <vozmem> sure
[04:18] <ilovefairuz> dominicdinada: it looks like mod_python is obsolete but yeah the handlers are missing by default it seems
[04:18] <blakkheim> nankura: ati has very bad linux support
[04:18] <rogerioM> hi ! could anyone tell me if i can install ubuntu 64 bits into dual core E2200 ASUS P5GCMX 1333 PC ?
[04:18] <quietone> on both lucid and maverick the usb speakers to show in the sound preferences when they want to not when I need them. Log in/out, reboot, disconnect/connect fails. What can I do?
[04:18] <nikola> vozmem, http://freenode.net/faq.shtml
[04:19] <blakkheim> rogerioM: yes
[04:19] <Fezzler> is there a command line tool to see if ubuntu is/can identify the firewire device connected to my PC?
[04:19] <blakkheim> rogerioM: http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=33925
[04:19] <dominicdinada> ilovefairuz: but i was asking if that handler in the ubuntu forum for apache2.conf would be fine. seeing as i want it sitewide
[04:19] <rogerioM> thanks !!!
[04:19] <nankura> ok i get the support is bad for linux. but has anyone managed to get a good smooth driver working. within the 10.x series
[04:19] <ede_> just installed 10.10 and then Stellarium, but it does nothing when i click on Stellarium icon...anybody have this problem?
[04:20] <chu_> nankura: is your question about mint, not actually ubuntu?
[04:20] <el> ho,a buenas noches
[04:20] <blakkheim> !es > el
[04:20] <nikola> nankura, i did just default install, enabled drivers and effects, and everything is working fine
[04:20] <dominicdinada> !es | el
[04:20] <nankura> my question is about ubuntu. theres no support for installing ati drivers by mint. so im wondering if ubuntu has more support/ways to do it
[04:20] <quietone> the speakers work just fine in gNewSense and windows but we also want ubuntu. is there any way I can force the sound preferences to 'see' the speakers?
[04:20] <gilaniali> is it possible to run a bash file stored on my local machine on my VPS server through ssh?
[04:21] <blakkheim> gilaniali: scp it over then run it?
[04:21] <nikola> 10.10 has Aditional Drivers, and you can enable them there, nankura
[04:21] <ilovefairuz> dominicdinada: http://goo.gl/Kqsx
[04:21] <Blue1> quietone: left click on the speaker icon, then preferences, and make sure the proper device is checked.
[04:21] <elfonia> what is the best archive format in ubuntu?
[04:22] <DanaG> Ubuntu got Catalyst 10.10... spiffy!
[04:22] <elfonia> i have no idea about .arj
[04:22] <blakkheim> elfonia: best as in.. how
[04:22] <nikola> elfonia, free one
[04:22] <Blue1> elfonia: i use gzip
[04:22] <pksadiq> !7z
[04:22] <ridin> how do i use swap
[04:22] <ilovefairuz> elfonia: gzip, bzip2, 7z or lzma
[04:22] <blakkheim> !swap > ridin
[04:22] <elfonia> folder contains images and texts
[04:22] <blakkheim> elfonia: i like 7z the most
[04:22] <dominicdinada> ilovefairuz:  ok thankyou, i already had that link up but it was one of 5 all giving different directions, again thankyou
[04:23] <nikola> !swap > nikola
[04:23] <elfonia> i like too, but i have no idea about arj
[04:23] <elfonia> it compress more than others, why ?
[04:23] <blakkheim> elfonia: have you compared it to 7za a -mx=9
[04:23] <nikola> so i can msg ubott u for info?
[04:23] <elfonia> yes i did
[04:23] <elfonia> .lzma was the best one
[04:23] <chu_> nikola: yep, you just did right? :)
[04:24] <elfonia> .arj is second
[04:24] <quietone> Blue1, that is the problem. it only shows up there about 1% of the time. lsusb always shows it
[04:24] <nikola> but chu_ it complained to use msg next time
[04:24] <blakkheim> elfonia: different ones compress different things better than others, it's best just to try each one
[04:24] <chu_> Ahh, I didn't know that
[04:24] <Blue1> quietone: what kind of card do you have?
[04:24] <gilaniali> blakkheim:  but is there a way to pipe each instruction in the file to the linode thru ssh? something like ssh < bashfile
[04:24] <quietone> Blue1, don't have a clue
[04:24] <ilovefairuz> nikola: /msg ubottu help
[04:24] <elfonia> can i use .lzma or .arj file other linux distors?
[04:24] <blakkheim> gilaniali: ssh user@server command
[04:25] <pksadiq> can I configure each port for sound for diffrent application, such like I can here song through the back port while my friend chat through the friend port, the sounds must not mix up
[04:25] <blakkheim> elfonia: if one distribution can use it, others can too
[04:25] <qwertyjustin> how might i remove kubuntu but keep ubuntu, via the terminal?
[04:25] <elfonia> thank you very much blakkheim

[04:27] <tacomaster> blakkheim: Blue1: yes by harden i mean more security

[04:31] <tacomaster> blakkheim: i use clamav because i have to upload files to windows users that i do not create so i cant be sure of the file content so i scan before i send
[04:32] <ilovefairuz> fengshaun: what's the full error message?
[04:32] <blakkheim> tacomaster: the only other thing i could think of that might add on to your setup is running firefox in a chroot
[04:32] <fengshaun> ilovefairuz, let me post it
[04:33] <tacomaster> blakkheim: and tiger is a unix penatreation testing software that test for known security exploits
[04:33] <benthebug> How could i receive help with Rythmbox?
[04:33] <blakkheim> tacomaster: similar to nessus i imagine?
[04:33] <tacomaster> blakkheim: havent heard of nessus but let me look it up and ill tell you 1 sec
[04:34] <Memnochxx> I just set my workspace switcher to have 4 workspaces in 8 rows and now it's gone from my taskbar and I don't know how to reset it.

[04:34] <quietone> Blue1, yea, they do work, once in a blue moon and I can't figure out a combination of events to get them to consistently work on ubuntu.
[04:34] <tacomaster> blakkheim: yes it is very much like nessus from what i see on the outside
[04:34] <jlxsolutions> any fix for npviewer.bin crashing every other second? yet 64 bit ubuntu desktop it seems to have gotten worse by 10.10
[04:34] <blakkheim> tacomaster: that's good then

[04:35] <fengshaun> ilovefairuz, I have, no luck
[04:35] <fengshaun> ilovefairuz, let me try it again, though
[04:35] <benthebug> Rythmbox gives me this message saying it can't load my music databade.. everythime. I went from a Upgrade of 10.10 to 10.04 (cause its easier on my machine). how do i reset this?
[04:35] <tacomaster> blakkheim: i have my $HOME encrypted long passwords took me almost a week to commit my new password to memory lol
[04:35] <crawler> anyway, i found the answer to my problem..in case anyone else want's to know..you can log out via terminal with the command "killall gnome-session"
[04:35] <blakkheim> tacomaster: same here
[04:36] <todd_> how does one get to the html channel?
[04:36] <Blue1> need a break
[04:36] <tacomaster> blakkheim: is it advised to remove recovery mode from grub?
[04:36] <blakkheim> tacomaster: i don't think it will make a difference. anyone who has physical access to your machine pretty much owns anything that's unencrypted

[04:37] <enav> you guys know some good opensource workflow????
[04:37] <tiox> Help me, please, before I bork my desktop.
[04:37] <tacomaster> blakkheim: ok but do you have any advice for adding more security to my computer?
[04:37] <blakkheim> tacomaster: just the firefox in a chroot idea, you might want to read a little about SELinux
[04:37] <tiox> Right now I am trying to install 10.04 on a hard drive with XP Pro. I don't want to overwrite this.
[04:37] <todd__>   /join #HTML
[04:38] <ilovefairuz> fengshaun: that's ugly but try restarting dbus: sudo service dbus restart
[04:38] <tiox> Is there a way to create a new partition?
[04:38] <fengshaun> tiox, just click on "install side by side" in the installer
[04:38] <tiox> No, I am at the Ubuntu installer, not Wubi.
[04:38] <ilovefairuz> todd__: without a space before /
[04:38] <blakkheim> tacomaster: and of course keep up to date with patches using something like cron-apt
[04:38] <benthebug> Tiox: it should say in the Ubuntu Installer
[04:38] <fengshaun> tiox, yes, that's how you do it, "install side by side"
[04:39] <ilovefairuz> tiox: choose "manually" (last option?) and then do whatever you want
[04:39] <icedtea> is there any way to get ubuntu to work with paths like root=/dev/sda2 rather than uuids? virtualbox doesn't seem to like ubuntu working with a uuid
[04:39] <tacomaster> blakkheim: i try to update 2-3 times a day
[04:39] <tiox> 10.04 LTS installer, no "Side by side" option.
[04:39] <blakkheim> tacomaster: lol, once is enough i think
[04:39] <tiox> I am on step 4.
[04:39] <ilovefairuz> icedtea: the host or the guest OS?
[04:39] <fengshaun> ilovefairuz, same result :(
[04:40] <icedtea> guest OS
[04:40] <ilovefairuz> icedtea: it shouldn't pose a problem, what's your error you get?
[04:41] <icedtea> it just locks up when I try booting it
[04:41] <tacomaster> blakkheim: so SELinux = (security-enhanced linux) but it says that it has come with the kernel is it just something that i have to rebuild the kernel to add?
[04:41] <icedtea> note, I'm mounting a sata partition
[04:41] <ilovefairuz> !selinux | tacomaster
[04:41] <blakkheim> tacomaster: yeah, i'm not an expert on it though (i don't use linux on my server)
[04:42] <quietone> Blue1, that had no effect. I don't get why that would help usb speakers?
[04:42] <ilovefairuz> tacomaster: use fedora if you want selinux but it's painful to setup (unless you just use default policies)

[04:43] <fengshaun> Guest536, only in U.S.

[04:43] <Guest536> qwow
[04:43] <Guest536> wow
[04:44] <ilovefairuz> tacomaster: selinux is huge, apparmor offers a simpler approach to sandboxing
[04:44] <ilovefairuz> simpler to configure, that is
[04:45] <smallfoot-> then there is TOMOYO
[04:45] <tacomaster> ilovefairuz: do you know any web sites that help you make apparmor more secure that defaults?
[04:45] <Guest536> are there open source codeces
[04:46] <blakkheim> Guest536: mplayer or vlc should be able to play back any of the codecs you have
[04:46] <arvut> !codec
[04:46] <tacomaster> blakkheim: i think he is trying to get the medibuntu codecs and codecs like w32codec are not playable by vlc
[04:46] <ilovefairuz> tacomaster: apparmors works by constraining the behavior of individual applications according to pre-scripted profiles, some users modify default profiles or add new ones, just google for the profile of a specific application, ubuntu forums has some

[04:50] <Kerrick> kwest_ it's not in the repos because it's not FOSS (and not part of the select group of closed-source programs available through the repos), so you can't use e.g. Synaptic to install it.

[05:22] <epaphus> Hey guys.. iam trying to run a program that depends on this: libpython2.5.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory , my system has installed: user@ubuntu:~$ python2.6 > Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Sep 15 2010, 15:52:39)  is there anyway I can somewhow associate this 2.5 shared library with the other so my program can run ?
[05:22] <ActionParsnip> ImAlive: dude, the release iis not called "meerkat"
[05:22] <ActionParsnip> ImAlive: it's called "maverick"
[05:22] <wisevoyager> Hi everybody! have a nice day! :D
[05:23] <bluelf> xangua, it says your system is up-to-date
[05:23] <ActionParsnip> ImAlive: just like the previous release is not called "Lynx", its called "lucid"
[05:23] <wisevoyager> I just upgrade to ubuntu 10.10 maverick meerkat
[05:23] <ActionParsnip> ImAlive: the massive luse is the lines above
[05:23] <ImAlive> o *bother on me*
[05:23] <RoDiMuS-X> Lucid Lynx, Maverick Meerkat which are code names
[05:23] <bluelf> wisevoyager, how?
[05:23] <wisevoyager> so, I have done installation..,
[05:23] <wisevoyager> :d
[05:24] <ActionParsnip> ImAlive: I suggest you go and tell wherever you copied the code from ad tell them its wrong
[05:24] <ImAlive> so what do i do to fix
[05:24] <wisevoyager> but, how come I get the kubuntu desktop envr=ironment?
[05:24] <ActionParsnip> ImAlive: you also need to change the mirror.peerl.net from lucid to maverick too
[05:24] <wisevoyager> lucid lynx, for sure
[05:24] <ThomasB2k> Thank you for the help, ActionParsnip
[05:24] <ActionParsnip> wisevoyager: install kde-core
[05:25] <joe-the-somethin> sometimes when i run amarok it changes my system theme to what appears to be super old school gnome. i am running a fresh install of 10.10
[05:25] <ActionParsnip> ThomasB2k: np man, grateful for the thanks too :D
[05:25] <ImAlive> can i mannually edit all that with gedt
[05:25] <ActionParsnip> ImAlive: sure, its only a text file
[05:25] <ActionParsnip> ImAlive: you will need: gksudo gedit    to get write access
[05:26] <ImAlive> wish there was a prefab, hehe
[05:26] <ActionParsnip> ImAlive: prefab?
[05:26] <ilovefairuz> ImAlive: sudo sed -i 'N;$!P;$!D;$d' /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:26] <ImAlive> one allready made
[05:26] <Joe`> 'ello
[05:26] <ActionParsnip> ImAlive: the OS comes with one, thats where the above stuff gets defined
[05:27] <ActionParsnip> ImAlive: read line 58 and up
[05:27] <wisevoyager> @Action Parsnip, tqvm!!
[05:27] <bluelf> hey guys , my upgrade manager says that my system is up to date but cat /etc/issue tells me i am still using ubuntu 10.04 how to upgrade to ubuntu 10.10
[05:27] <ActionParsnip> wisevoyager: np bro
[05:27] <ActionParsnip> !upgrade | bluelf
[05:28] <ubuntu> bluelf this is the source for help u https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MaverickUpgrades
[05:28] <ActionParsnip> bluelf: being "up to date" means your RELEASE is up to date, it doesn't mean you are on the latest release
[05:28] <Joe`> can someone please explain to me why things will start to run but then disappear before a window comes up?
[05:28] <Joe`> trying to change keyboard input method
[05:28] <helloWorld_890> hello
[05:28] <Joe`> when i click on the menu item under preferences, a taskbar item will show up briefly
[05:28] <ActionParsnip> bluelf: karmic was released in 2009 and is still supported and will say "up to date" but isn't maverick
[05:28] <Joe`> but then the whole thing disappears
[05:28] <Joe`> i never even get a window
[05:28] <helloWorld_890> how can i listen streaming media from windows media player?
[05:28] <helloWorld_890> :\
[05:29] <ActionParsnip> Joe`: is this at login?
[05:29] <helloWorld_890> the site has only this choice
[05:29] <Joe`> ActionParsnip: this is every time i click on it
[05:29] <ActionParsnip> helloWorld_890: vlc may be able to connect to the stream
[05:29] <bogie5464> wow... one at a time
[05:29] <ActionParsnip> Joe`: launch it from terminal, the output may help
[05:29] <helloWorld_890> so i have to take the url manually?
[05:29] <Joe`> i can't figure out how to launch it from the terminal
[05:29] <ActionParsnip> helloWorld_890: yes, of course
[05:29] <helloWorld_890> :\
[05:30] <Joe`> tried typing all sorts of stuff into it
[05:30] <ActionParsnip> Joe`: type it's name in terminal and press enter, you can run alacarte if you are unsure of the command
[05:30] <bogie5464> juxta
[05:30] <bogie5464> JUXTA
[05:30] <bogie5464> is your last name bogaurd?
[05:31] <ActionParsnip> Joe`: alacarte will tell you the command to use if you select the item
[05:31] <Joe`> ah yeah i've got that up now
[05:31] <Joe`> will see if it works
[05:31] <Joe`> thanks
[05:31] <Chaos2358> hi anyone in here familiar with "xscreensaver" from synaptic manager? i installed but none of the actuall screen savers are installed
[05:31] <Joe`> the command didn't work either
[05:32] <nkdoodwal> how can i change grub background
[05:32] <bogie5464> you have to install the first like 5 packages chaos
[05:32] <bluelf> ActionParsnip,  had already changed release upgrade to normal release but still when I click on check it says that my system is up-to-date..
[05:32] <ActionParsnip> bluelf: it's more involved than using apt-get
[05:32] <Chaos2358> bogie5464,  those packages are for kde though
[05:32] <ActionParsnip> bluelf: check the upgrade notes ubottu gave, it has commands to run
[05:33] <bluelf> ActionParsnip, ok
[05:33] <Joe`> ActionParsnip: if i showed you the terminal output, would that help explain my problem? sorry to be a burden, i see you're busy
[05:34] <ActionParsnip> Joe`: sure, use: http://pastie.org  to give the output
[05:34] <mactimes> Hi.  I've recently installed Maverick and I'm having a funny issue here.  Sometimes (in fact many times), when I type a command, the terminal will only produce some output after hitting any key.  Is anyone aware of this problem and, if so, is there any already known solution for it?
[05:34] <ActionParsnip> mactimes: in all terminals?
[05:34] <bluelf> ActionParsnip, it tells me to do same things that I have tried, I tried again nothing happened
[05:35] <Joe`> http://pastie.org/1226974
[05:35] <AbhiJit> !grub2 | nkdoodwal
[05:35] <mactimes> ActionParsnip, Well, I've just tried gnome-terminal.
[05:35] <wisevoyager> I'd like to use the kubuntu destop env. on my netbook edition
[05:35] <ActionParsnip> bluelf: sudo apt-get install update-manager-core; sudo do-release-upgrade
[05:35] <csmith1994> hey guys. does anyone know a good windows 7 theme for meerkat?
[05:36] <helloWorld_890> there is no other way? anyplugin or something for firefox?
[05:36] <mactimes> ActionParsnip, It looks like as if the terminal had hanged up, but when I hit any key, even if it is only the Ctrl key, the terminal shows the "missing" output.
[05:36] <nkdoodwal> ubottu: i want to change the back ground
[05:37] <AbhiJit> wisevoyager, https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Netbook
[05:37] <csmith1994> ubottu: what's 1+1?
[05:37] <ActionParsnip> csmith1994: kde or gnome?
[05:37] <bogie5464> ubottu
[05:37] <ning> ubuntu
[05:37] <bogie5464> ubottu fails
[05:37] <AbhiJit> nkdoodwal, generally in ubuntu desktop if we want kde then we do sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop dunno if it applied for netbook too

[05:38] <helloWorld_890> someone/
[05:38] <helloWorld_890> ?
[05:39] <ActionParsnip> helloWorld_890: there are thousands of streams flying around the place, you can't expect an app to just guess for you
[05:41] <Deihmos> can i read kindle books on ubuntu
[05:42] <helloWorld_890> well i m new in linux // so /.. i am trying trough firefox to locate the vlc
[05:42] <ActionParsnip> Deihmos: unfortunately Amazons .azw file format is proprietary and DRM protected. So it is unreadable by anything Amazon doesn't approve of.
[05:42] <helloWorld_890> i don't know the structure of a linux system
[05:42] <helloWorld_890> where are the programms located
[05:42] <helloWorld_890> ?
[05:42] <ActionParsnip> helloWorld_890: you dont have to
[05:42] <AbhiJit> !manual | helloWorld_890
[05:42] <ActionParsnip> helloWorld_890: $PATH, just call it in terminal
[05:43] <ActionParsnip> helloWorld_890: have you use apt-get yet?
[05:43] <helloWorld_890> yes couple of times. I am not tryign to install vlc
[05:43] <ActionParsnip> Deihmos: seems you can run a virtualized system and run the windows kindle reader
[05:43] <helloWorld_890> i am trying to locate vlc in hard drive through firefox when a media player application is needed
[05:43] <ActionParsnip> helloWorld_890: but you didn't know where it was right....?
[05:44] <helloWorld_890> yes i dont know till now
[05:44] <ActionParsnip> helloWorld_890: there is a vlc firefox plugin, it will put the right files where they need to go so (crappy) firefox can use vlc
[05:44] <helloWorld_890> o
[05:44] <helloWorld_890> yes
[05:45] <tsimpson> normally apps are installed to /usr/bin, you can open a terminal and type "which vlc" to check
[05:45] <dli> helloWorld_890, if you haven't done so, install it in software center/synaptic, if you want to know the file structures, the executable should be in /usr/bin/, open a file manager
[05:45] <helloWorld_890> i have downlowded and installed allready but it does not show in all media types. When i chge it it says to locate a program that i want
[05:46] <Quan-Time> since going from 10.04 to 10.10 x64 (about 3 days ago) my wifi is insanely flakey.  Constant dropouts, not even detecting my network, etc.. A reboot usually fixed this.  Ive NEVER had an issue before.  Its on a laptop.. Anyone know of this yet or ways to work around it ?
[05:46] <gregoru> Hello everyone

[05:47] <bluelf> ActionParsnip, thanks :)
[05:47] <Khedron> Quan-Time: what card is it?
[05:48] <ActionParsnip> bluelf: all i did was copy the command from the upgrade notes ubottu gave
[05:48] <helloWorld_890> recourse temporary unavailable
[05:49] <Jimmio> Hey all. I have an issue with audio in 10.10. The sampling rate is set too low. I'm so used to 48k 24bit from Windows that music now sounds muffled.
[05:49] <bluelf> ActionParsnip, it was in the section "Network Upgrade for Ubuntu Servers (Recommended)" I tried what was written for Ubuntu Desktops.
[05:50] <Jimmio> Where can I change the settings, if anywhere?
[05:50] <c0nv1ct> Unity seems to show the "Keep In Launcher" option in the context menu for only *some* applications.  Is the only workaround for this to add it via gconf?
[05:50] <helloWorld_890> i just can not here files that need mms protocol
[05:50] <helloWorld_890> irefox plugin is installed
[05:50] <pi3ch> how can I add RTL language (Persian) support to Terminal?

[05:51] <kamalesh> Hello, anyone here who can help me with Amarok ? It simply does not play anything.. ( my PC: Vaio EA16FG, Ubuntu 10.10  64bit)
[05:52] <Quan-Time_> ugh.
[05:52] <kamalesh> Hello, anyone here who can help me with Amarok ? It simply does not play anything.. ( my PC: Vaio EA16FG, Ubuntu 10.10  64bit)
[05:52] <ActionParsnip> bluelf: the server upgrade just involves tryping stuff as it doesn't have the gui stuff the desktop has
[05:52] <joe-the-somethin> kamalesh: have you installed the plugins for your music?

[05:54] <Jimmio> elias_: You can either go get something that does it, or you'll have to buy the thing in the Software center.
[05:54] <sileni> im running ubuntu 10.04 and i see that ubuntu 10.10 is available. How do i upgrade through terminal into kubuntu 10.10
[05:54] <Khedron> elias_: type first few letters of their nick and press tab
[05:54] <ActionParsnip> elias_: type their nick, use tab to complete
[05:54] <sileni> is there a command or do i have to download cd and do it again ?
[05:54] <Quan-Time_> Khedron: inbuilt thing on my Asus K7 series laptop
[05:54] <gregoru> How come the alternate CD works when installing/partitioning encrypted LVM drives on some laptops but it refuses to work and hangs at 73 "base system install" on my fattop?
[05:54] <bluelf> ActionParsnip,  I dint knew. Typing stuff is much easier..next time i will try server commands first .. thanks
[05:54] <ActionParsnip> elias_: for me you can type act then press tab ;)
[05:54] <Quan-Time_> never had a problem before. which is worrying
[05:54] <Joe`> ActionParsnip: does this output say anything useful about the problem? http://pastie.org/1226974 thanks
[05:54] <kamalesh> sileni:  System>Administration>Update Manager> "Upgrade"
[05:54] <ActionParsnip> bluelf: np man, terminal == power :D
[05:54] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: ok, can you open a terminal and type lspci and put it on pastebin for me?
[05:55] <sileni> i did that but it doesn't have upgrade to 10.10
[05:55] <kamalesh> sileni:  download and install ALL THE UPDATES available
[05:55] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[05:55] <kamalesh> sileni:  Then the "Upgrade" button will appear
[05:55] <joe-the-somethin> kamalesh: have you checked settings-configure amarok-playback?
[05:55] <ActionParsnip> Joe`: search for: ImportError: No module named gtk    you will find lots to read
[05:55] <kamalesh> joe-the-somethin:  yes i did that too
[05:55] <kamalesh> joe-the-somethin:  i tried reinstalling a few times too
[05:56] <joe-the-somethin> what does it say?
[05:56] <sileni> kamalesh: thank you
[05:56] <Joe`> ActionParsnip: will do. thanks for the help this evening :)
[05:56] <sileni> kamalesh: will there be option to choose kubuntu install ?
[05:56] <kamalesh> joe-the-somethin: that's the worst part... No  logs/error reports
[05:56] <Quan-Time_> Khedron: 2 secs.. if i dont time out in the mean time
[05:56] <kamalesh> sileni:  No
[05:56] <ActionParsnip> Joe`: np man
[05:56] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: lol ok, i'll still be here
[05:57] <sileni> kamalesh: i installed everything, yet there is no upgrade button
[05:57] <Quan-Time_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/514813/
[05:57] <kamalesh> Ok
[05:57] <kamalesh> sileni:  Wait
[05:57] <Quan-Time_> Khedron: plugged my cable in.. cos its dying again..
[05:58] <kamalesh> sileni:  System>Admin>Software Sources .... Take "Updates" tab and then, at the bottom , "Release Upgrade"  choose "Normal Releases"
[05:58] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: ok gimme a sec
[05:58] <Quan-Time_> np.. its atheros or somethin
[05:58] <gregoru> Why do my installation get stuck at 73% of the base system install ?
[05:59] <Quan-Time_> gregoru: of a burnt DVD / cd ?
[05:59] <gregoru> burnt Alternate CD
[05:59] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: do a sudo dmesg | grep ath9k
[05:59] <sileni> kamalesh:  awesome
[05:59] <sileni> kamalesh: it works thanks
[05:59] <gregoru> Worked installing on 2 laptops but not my regular computer.
[05:59] <Quan-Time_> last time that happened to me, i changed media type,worked fine.. never found the solution..
[05:59] <kamalesh> sileni:  You're welcome :)
[05:59] <sileni> kamalesh: are you from india?
[05:59] <Khedron> because if it's the ath9k module, i've had lots of problems with it myself
[05:59] <gregoru> its the alternate CD and I used the exact same config installing on the other 2 laptops.
[05:59] <kamalesh> sileni:  Yes
[06:00] <Taev> Hey Im trying to get rid of unnecessary processes, and there are a few Im not sure what they do, is Account Information Resolver (winbind) important?
[06:00] <Quan-Time_> Khedron: http://paste.ubuntu.com/514815/
[06:00] <ActionParsnip> Taev: if you use wine you need winbind
[06:01] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: yip ath9k :/
[06:01] <gregoru> encrypted LVM and almost exactly the same configuration of the drives, but the regular computer for some odd reason hangs at 73% of the base system install.
[06:01] <pi3ch> tried http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1451241 and now I got persian support in terminal. Cheers.
[06:01] <Jimmio> Taev: May I ask why you want to get rid of unnecessary processes..? Most just sit there doing nothing anyway xP
[06:01] <Taev> what about CPU Frequency Manager (Powernowd)
[06:01] <ActionParsnip> Jimmio: uses less resources :)
[06:01] <gregoru> Been trying this for 7 times now I think.
[06:01] <Quan-Time_> Khedron: so what does that mean ?
[06:01] <ActionParsnip> Jimmio: more secure
[06:01] <RudyValencia> hm, is Getdeb down?
[06:01] <Taev> Exactly ActionParsnip
[06:01] <RudyValencia> I can't go to it
[06:01] <Taev> so what about CPU Frequency Manager (powernowd)
[06:02] <Jimmio> Oh boy.. this audio issue is getting on my nerves. Where are the pulse config files located?
[06:02] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: well, frankly the cards are crap and the drivers are hit and miss at the moment, I gave up waiting and changed them, but that was a year ago, let me check now if it's been resolved
[06:02] <ActionParsnip> Jimmio: ~/.pulse*
[06:02] <Taev> what about Power Management (apmd) ?
[06:02] <Taev> is that important?
[06:03] <Quan-Time_> Khedron: ah.. its all comming back to me.. 10.04 was quite stable tho.. weird
[06:03] <Jimmio> H.. hmm.. Utility to change settings..? ahaha..
[06:04] <ActionParsnip> Taev: http://guvnr.com/pc/ubuntu-disable-services/  has a list 20% of the way down
[06:04] <Jimmio> No simple config files anymore.
[06:04] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: the drivers are in kernel now but, some are a lot better than others
[06:04] <Quan-Time_> ah ok
[06:04] <ActionParsnip> Taev: you can remove brltty if you don't use braille :)
[06:04] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: I got better results by compiling the cvs code but thats a pain
[06:04] <Quan-Time_> Khedron: cvs *shudder*
[06:04] <gregoru> I tryed to google the issue I am having but no useful results other than people giving up is the result.
[06:04] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: do you get problems like dropping out if you try and download a large file? that was mostly where it broke for me
[06:05] <Khedron> yeah lol
[06:05] <Taev> ok 2nd question, I dual boot, and I deleted this file on my Windows HD, and now when ever i try to boot to it, Grub gives me an error
[06:05] <Taev> Error 15 file something is missing
[06:05] <Quan-Time_> Khedron: its really random. sometimes its PERFECT.. saying that, i do have a torrent running, and tis contsantly dropping.. could be the issue
[06:05] <Taev> if I reinstalled grub, do you think that would fix that problem?
[06:05] <Quan-Time_> multiple port connecitons kill it
[06:05] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: that would be doing it
[06:05] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: do a dmesg | grep phy
[06:05] <Quan-Time_> ugh lame.
[06:06] <Khedron> I had 1000s of errors of those, something about associating
[06:06] <gregoru> Quan-Time_, do you have some useful advice for my encrypted LVM install ?
[06:06] <Jimmio> I'll brb.
[06:06] <Quan-Time_> Khedron: http://paste.ubuntu.com/514817/
[06:07] <Quan-Time_> gregoru: nope sorry.. when i reburnt on different brand DVD, it worked fine..
[06:07] <Quan-Time_> tried a few times to sort it out, never could
[06:07] <Quan-Time_> but it did freeze for some reason..
[06:07] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: hmm maybe its not turned on, you can load the module with verbose logging to show errors, its been a while since I did it, but the ath drivers really are horrible
[06:07] <gregoru> So even if the CD I burnt it to worked fine for a couple of laptops I should reburn it to get it working for my regular computer ?
[06:08] <gregoru> Or try that is.
[06:08] <Quan-Time_> Khedron: i have a cable in atm. i COULD try to do it with no cable on wifi, but ill probably time out
[06:08] <tiox> I now know why I never had a side by side option to begin with.
[06:08] <Quan-Time_> gregoru: its how i did it.. some dvdroms hate certain brand media.. its crap, but its life
[06:08] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: the bugs are upstream at http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k
[06:08] <tiox> The hard drive on the other PC I was using was 19.9 gigabytes.
[06:09] <tiox> That's right, the hard drive was that small.
[06:09] <gregoru> I see how that could be the problem.
[06:09] <Khedron> there really is very little you can do, other than go round and round to find a driver that works best
[06:09] <tiox> I am now installing on a different machine and I got a side by side option.
[06:09] <gregoru> Anybody had any problems when doing a full drive encryption ?
[06:09] <Khedron> gregoru: no, working fine on two laptops here
[06:09] <Quan-Time_> Khedron: cheers for the help.. ill head off and start diggin around the net and see what i can come up with.. thanx again !!
[06:10] <Khedron> Quan-Time_: if its a full blown laptop, often the card is underneath a flap, easy to get to
[06:10] <sprockets2000> guys I just installed ubuntu on a notebook of mine, I have no network so is there a place I can just download the b43 STA OR the other driver and copy it over preferably in .deb format
[06:10] <Khedron> often easier to just buy a totally supported mini pci
[06:10] <gregoru> Same here, working fine on 2 of my laptops but refuses to even install on my regular fatcomp.
[06:10] <tiox> sprockets2000: First see if a network exists at all.
[06:10] <Khedron> gregoru: you using the alternative cd?
[06:10] <gregoru> yes
[06:11] <tiox> If you are receiving nothing or no wifi, then you're at the mercy of these guys.
[06:11] <Khedron> can it install without encryption, aka not a modulenot being loaded?
[06:11] <gregoru> alternate CD on one laptop and USB install on a EEE netbook both worked, the regular fatlap stuck at 73% of the base install :/
[06:11] <xixor> howdy y'all
[06:11] <Khedron> ahh, at 73% unlikely to be a module then
[06:12] <Khedron> I have had freezing problems once or twice on my server, often just doing it again often works
[06:12] <gregoru> crap cant remember exactly what it said where it stuck.
[06:12] <sprockets2000> well i know I have a network but I need the driver
[06:12] <gregoru> like updating apt sources or something similar.
[06:12] <sprockets2000> and since is propritary I guess this os cant provide it with the instll disk
[06:13] <Khedron> gregoru: have you tried just doing it again? pita but often it's just a glitch
[06:13] <gregoru> updating the list of available sources.
[06:13] <gregoru> Ive tried it 7 times on my fatcomp so far.
[06:13] <Khedron> always sticks at the same point?
[06:13] <gregoru> 6.5 hours trying so far :D
[06:14] <gregoru> yes
[06:14] <gregoru> 73% of base system install
[06:14] <gregoru> saying updating the list of available sources.
[06:14] <Eighteens> gregoru, mine was sticking at 73% of base install also, i re-recorded the iso at a slower speed, and it worked after that
[06:15] <gregoru> Eighteens how come mine worked fine installing at a laptop 3 times in a row :)
[06:15] <gregoru> thats the weird part.
[06:15] <smerdyko> hi chan, I was wondering if someone could help me mount what is ostensibly a failed drive
[06:15] <gregoru> Same exact disc and setup
[06:15] <Khedron> the optical drive might not like it so much
[06:15] <smerdyko> I have it plugged into an enclosure, and it's not making the death sound it was when I pulled it out of my lappy, but I need to get some data off of it
[06:15] <Khedron> it's why I mostly use a usb key, skips all of that
[06:16] <gregoru> I have one single disc of a different brand left to try burning it to :)
[06:16] <gregoru> at slowest possible rate and see what happens
[06:17] <Khedron> gregoru: it shouldn't crash it, but is your network on there being identified properly?
[06:17] <gregoru> Yes Khedron
[06:17] <gregoru> It identifes properly and no problems.'
[06:17] <Khedron> I would suggest possibly trying the network install then
[06:17] <_Neytiri_> i am haveing a issue with my network interface
[06:18] <gregoru> Tried removing the cable for the network still stuck at 73%
[06:18] <gregoru> network install ?
[06:18] <Khedron> yeah, there is an alternative install and a network install
[06:18] <_Neytiri_> its a gbic interface but its running at 100m the switch is gbic the cable is a good cat6 cable
[06:18] <Khedron> the network install lets you do all the encryption etc, but pulls all packages from the net like the original debian
[06:19] <gregoru> hm,m
[06:19] <William_> hi
[06:19] <Khedron> gregoru: sec see if I can find it, as it's pretty buried
[06:19] <gregoru> Should work well on 100mbit but did not see that install iso
[06:20] <Khedron> no it's hidden
[06:20] <gregoru> The boring this is the install probably works on the non "alternate" CD
[06:20] <gregoru> I had 10.04 installed without any problems on the regular installdisc.
[06:20] <Khedron> gregoru: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/
[06:21] <Khedron> or amd64 if you need
[06:21] <Khedron> change the path
[06:21] <Khedron> lol
[06:22] <gregoru> Just a pointer to other people out there, do not put a stack of CDs into the optical drive, it for some reason refuse to read any of em :)
[06:22] <Khedron> lmao
[06:22] <gregoru> thanks Khedron, ill try the netboot of i386
[06:22] <Khedron> i've done that wondered what the odd rattling sound was ;)
[06:23] <gregoru> It did not rattle in my nec DVD drive :)
[06:23] <gregoru> Just refused to load any of em :)
[06:23] <gregoru> or the bottom one.
[06:23] <gregoru> haha
[06:23] <Khedron> lol
[06:23] <Khedron> gregoru: the netboot is good if you also use xubuntu/ubuntu etc on different machines
[06:23] <Khedron> as you can install any one you want from that disk
[06:24] <gregoru> dban/regular386/alt386
[06:24] <gregoru> none loaded :)
[06:24] <Khedron> dban lol
[06:24] <gregoru> Who doesnt have dban :)
[06:24] <Khedron> I think for anyone who does FDE, they probably do
[06:24] <Khedron> ;)
[06:25] <gregoru> Was kinda slow though 1.35h for 5runs of dodshort
[06:25] <Khedron> I use a knoppix cd and run wipe
[06:25] <SeanInSeattle> Hey all.  I've installed apache 2.3.8 and installed from source.  I wasn't aware that it wouldn't put apache into the same directory that ubuntu would normally install it to when installing from the dpkg in the repos.  It seems to have installed it to /usr/local/apache2.  I'm wondering if it would be appropriate to move that whole directory into /etc/ to match ubuntu style?
[06:25] <Khedron> more...configurable
[06:25] <gregoru> How fast was that ?
[06:26] <Khedron> faster than dban
[06:26] <Khedron> dban often doesn't put the drive into dma and stuff
[06:26] <c0nv1ct> SeanInSeattle, /etc is for configurations, not apache installs
[06:27] <SeanInSeattle> c8nv1ct:  ok.  so its fine to have it live where it was placed originally?
[06:27] <Khedron> gregoru: with modern drives you rarely need more than 3 passes and a zeroing anyhow
[06:27] <c0nv1ct> SeanInSeattle, i dont think it really matters where the binaries/libs are, symlink any configs to /etc/apache2 if you need to
[06:28] <Memnochxx> Should upgrading a wubi installation generally be avoided?
[06:28] <gregoru> 3 passes= 1 run I presume including a zeroing
[06:28] <gregoru> anyhow is that netboot like 13M ?
[06:28] <Khedron> it is
[06:28] <gregoru> goodie
[06:28] <Khedron> I use it on a pxe install
[06:28] <SeanInSeattle> c8nv1ct:  When its installed from source, do I need to manually add the apache directory to my path?
[06:28] <gregoru> Only have a burning optic left :P
[06:29] <Khedron> so I just boot from the network and install them from that
[06:29] <Gryllida> Hello! What is this distribution prominent for? It has read/write ntfs preinstalled, gnome (like many others), linux kernel (like many others), what else?
[06:29] <Khedron> same with knoppix
[06:29] <c0nv1ct> SeanInSeattle, why does it need to be in your path?
[06:29] <gregoru> mini.iso ? is that it ?
[06:29] <Khedron> the mini.iso is to burn yes
[06:29] <SeanInSeattle> c8nv1ct:  I don't know.  I'm just learning some of this sys admin stuff.
[06:29] <gregoru> this will be interesting :)
[06:29] <Khedron> the other files are to network boot
[06:30] <xixor> yo, so, I can browse to an smb share on a windows computer using the KDE file browser dolphin, I can copy files, etc, but I cannot stream the files when I open them with vlc, what gives?
[06:30] <c0nv1ct> SeanInSeattle, you might want to stick to managed packages until you learn some more then and avoid compiling by hand
[06:30] <Khedron> gregoru: if you're on a fast network, its faster to do it that way lol
[06:30] <SeanInSeattle> c8nv1ct:  The only way that I'm going to learn this stuff is by doing it.  Not by shying away from it.
[06:30] <gregoru> 100mbit in/out is that still faster than a ALT.iso ?
[06:31] <Khedron> yes
[06:31] <Khedron> way faster
[06:31] <Khedron> your network will be faster than cdrom access speeds
[06:31] <SeanInSeattle> c8nv1ct:  So, as I understand you, it doesn't matter if the apache2 directory is on the system path, yes?
[06:31] <c0nv1ct> SeanInSeattle, true, but by doing what you did, you shifted the responsibility of maintaining the package on to yourself.  are you capable of keeping up with security patches yourself?
[06:31] <gymophett> I have Ubuntu as the host OS, and Windows XP as guest OS in Virtualbox. I insert my SD card, and the card doesn't pop up in the windows xp virtual machine. how do i make it do so?
[06:31] <gregoru> Cant remember how fast a 52x cd reads would have answered myself if I knew :P
[06:31] <c0nv1ct> SeanInSeattle, learn to swim in the shallow end ;)
[06:31] <SeanInSeattle> c8nv1ct:  Yes, I don't want my server to be upgrading automagically. :)
[06:31] <Khedron> gregoru: not 100meg ;)
[06:32] <Khedron> course, depends on the mirror used
[06:32] <gregoru> My sata writes at 140mb/s I think
[06:32] <c0nv1ct> SeanInSeattle, you choose when to run `apt-get upgrade`
[06:32] <Khedron> should be way faster than the alt cd then
[06:33] <kamalesh> I connected a monitor to my laptop, my PC : Vaio EA16FG, ATI Radeon 5650 1GB , the prob is , somehow the external laptop became my Primary screen (Screen 1), How do i change it back ?
[06:34] <kamalesh> I connected a monitor to my laptop, my PC : Vaio EA16FG, ATI Radeon 5650 1GB , the prob is , somehow the external monitor became my Primary screen (Screen 1), How do i change it back ?
[06:34] <gregoru> Last test was like 12,3mb/s so almost 100mbit
[06:34] <Dr_Willis> kamalesh:  many laptops have a special FN-Somthing key that toggles the internal display and external.  Or are you wantuing to use both at the same time?
[06:34] <kamalesh> Dr_Willis:  but it doesnt work in Ubuntu :)
[06:35] <tiox> Mmmkay, I wanna ask.
[06:35] <kamalesh> Dr_Willis: Oh sorry, the OS is Ubuntu 10.10 64bit
[06:35] <Dr_Willis> kamalesh:  mine do.  but its proberly chipset specific. I dont use ATI. I only have nvidia box's
[06:35] <tiox> Why in the installer are we forced to begin with lower case?
[06:35] <Dr_Willis> tiox:  claify what you are asking...
[06:35] <AbhiJit> i installed the dropbox nautilis addon. but where it goes? cant find it
[06:35] <Memnochxx> tiox your username? because it has to be lower case.
[06:36] <tiox> I just received an error when I wanted to begin my username with a capital letter.
[06:36] <tiox> But why? What's the significance?
[06:36] <AbhiJit> nvm
[06:36] <kamalesh> Dr_Willis: The screens work fine, i can change the screen back to my laptop screen, but in my ATI Catalyst Control center, the primary display is the external monitor
[06:36] <Dr_Willis> because in linux Case is siginificant.  MixxEdCaSe does not get maped  to lowercase equilivents like it does in other OS's
[06:37] <Memnochxx> that can't be the reason Dr_Willis
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> kamalesh:  for my nvidia stuff. theres a check box to make this display the primary.  No idea on ati.
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> Memnochxx:  why not..
[06:37] <Memnochxx> Because that's no reason to disallow lower case if case is significant.
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> could be grandfathered in stuff also.. could also be to dissalow 2 users like Bill and bill getting confused.
[06:38] <mtx_init> in firefox aboutconfig what does this mean distribution.canonical.bookmarksProcessed;true
[06:38] <tiox> mtx_init: Might mean bookmarks from another OS.
[06:38] <Dr_Willis> try adding a user with adduser command with Different Cases  see if it works,
[06:38] <kamalesh> Dr_Willis:  Hm, Ok :)
[06:38] <tiox> Like, with installation, bookmarks from Internet Explorer.
[06:38] <Dr_Willis> may as well ask why theres no 'n' in the unmount command. :)
[06:38] <dpreacher> help please. My computer stops working after n days of uptime. Can't seem to figure out where to check for errors
[06:39] <Dr_Willis> its 'umount'
[06:39] <AbhiJit> so how to get maverick font in my lucid?
[06:39] <thaklos> Hello, I am trying to activate a driver and it errors, here is /var/log/jockey.log, can someone tell me what I should be changing? http://pastebin.com/4tFKUXJU
[06:39] <Dr_Willis> AbhiJit:  theres some repos that have the Ubuntu font and downloads you can use in other OS's - i saw some posting about that a few weeks back on OMGubuntu, or webupd8
[06:39] <AbhiJit> Dr_Willis, ok
[06:39] <tiox> Where can I see this glaring typo?
[06:40] <`3Shades> So my hard drive is filling up and I want to use a USB drive I bought for installing things onto. My problem is every time I use the synaptic package manager or apt-get it puts things directly onto my main drive, can I adjust this or use a command to change this?
[06:40] <Dr_Willis> Everyone was making a big deal about the font in beta.. Now that its actually out. You dont hear much about it.
[06:40] <tiox> Same thing that happens to lots of things.
[06:41] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  not really.  How much space are you using for / anyway? You can move some directories to other partitions and free up some space.
[06:41] <JoeMaverickSett> AbhiJit: i know the repo.
[06:41] <AbhiJit> Dr_Willis, i need it to tpye the indian rupee symbol
[06:41] <tiox> When something comes out, you hear less of it and people are onto the new shiny thing.
[06:41] <Mossyfunk> What's the best version to install for legacy ATI drivers for a radeon X850 Pro? 8.04 or 8.10?
[06:41] <AbhiJit> JoeMaverickSett, where is repo?
[06:41] <JoeMaverickSett> AbhiJit: sorry, i meant ppa, http://www.webupd8.org/2010/10/public-ubuntu-font-family-ppa-for.html
[06:41] <Memnochxx> Move media to different drives, not programs
[06:41] <`3Shades> I don't really do media
[06:41] <Dr_Willis> My / on my old system with Lots of stuff installed.. is only like 10gb...
[06:41] <Memnochxx> You must have a super small drive then.
[06:42] <`3Shades> I only have programs.. lots of programs.. heh
[06:42] <tiox> Mossyfunk: Try this. Burn a copy of each version and see which one works better. :P
[06:42] <`3Shades> 60gig
[06:42] <Mossyfunk> tiox, =P
[06:42] <Dr_Willis> my /home is on its own 2TB hd. :)
[06:42] <Memnochxx> You've filled up 60 gb with no media?
[06:42] <neowest> hola a todos
[06:42] <linux_is_my_hero> good evening, all :-)
[06:42] <tiox> No way.
[06:42] <linux_is_my_hero> how do i sync subfolders on ubuntu one?
[06:42] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  i have to wonder what you have done to fill up a 60gb /
[06:42] <tiox> How the hell's what I'm saying.
[06:43] <JoeMaverickSett> how do i put my / on to one partition and /home on another? is there a way to do that?
[06:43] <Dr_Willis> JoeMaverickSett:  mount the other partition as /home
[06:43] <`3Shades> I love testing out and I've installed just about everything I could off of the synaptic manager.. heh
[06:43] <Dr_Willis> JoeMaverickSett:  i normally do it during the install.. but its not too hard to do afterwards
[06:43] <tiox> 0_0
[06:43] <JoeMaverickSett> Dr_Willis: got any guides?
[06:43] <tiox> OMFG.
[06:43] <AbhiJit> is there any cool site for themes other than bisigi?
[06:43] <AbhiJit> no the gnome art
[06:43] <Dr_Willis> JoeMaverickSett:  theres proberly some out there. but as i said its rather straight forward if you know a few linux basics.
[06:43] <`3Shades> can I move my wine? that would take out a lot
[06:44] <JoeMaverickSett> Dr_Willis: okie, will try it out when i do another fresh install. :)
[06:44] <tiox> I think you need to drink some wine and reassess what you really need!
[06:44] <`3Shades> my native wine folder is huge..
[06:44] <`3Shades> still programs though
[06:44] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  you can get a 2nd hd and have the USERS home dir access it.  format it to ext3/4 or similer. and link it to the /home/user/whatever dir.
[06:44] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  users wine/home dir are not the kind of 'programs' we are refering to.
[06:45] <Dr_Willis> You can move /home/ or specific users in /home/ to other partitions/filesystems
[06:45] <tiox> Quit flood! /_\
[06:45] <Dr_Willis> 2TB hds are under the $100 mark last i looked. :)
[06:46] <tiox> Oh yes. I read about WD's Barracuda selling for $80
[06:46] <`3Shades> That's what I thought but I want to make sure... thanks Dr_Willis, I'm starting to think I need to start downloading some of the java programs I run and moving them too...
[06:46] <tiox> Might be cheaper today.
[06:46] <`3Shades> I've got about 1/2 a gig left...
[06:46] <Dr_Willis> sounds like you need to be removing extra cruft.. :)
[06:46] <tiox> THough, `3Shades, please uninstall what you really don't need.
[06:47] <jebadia> hey guys u just installed a nvidia video card and set it up to have a second desktop t=restarted to get it all ready and now umbuntu boots to a console instead of a desktop know wjhats up
[06:47] <Dr_Willis> This is comming from someone that has 8+GB in his wallpaper directory
[06:47] <`3Shades> tiox, but I need it ... trust me lol
[06:47] <`3Shades> A lot of my stuff is you need this lib and it's dependancies are this.. ect.
[06:47] <tiox> I am running Ubuntu off a 8GB USB drive because I want to, some time in the future get Windows working on it again.
[06:47] <tiox> Then after that, I plan on buying a Ubuntu laptop with wwhatever money I can scrape up.
[06:48] <tiox> Preinstalled, so I know everything works.
[06:48] <chrissavery> JoeMaverickSett: read up on the mount command. You can mount a partition wherever you need. Then you can make it permanent in the /etc.fstab file. man mount, man fstab
[06:48] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  normal stuff from the package manager system. I find it hard to belive you have used that to fill up  most of a 60gb HD.. now take like 4 windows games in the wine dir.. I can see THAT taking up most of a 60gb HD.
[06:48] <`3Shades> I think this is a feature for updates...
[06:48] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  theres alwways the apt-cache directory you can clear out to free up a few GB.
[06:48] <chrissavery> JoeMaveriakSett: oops, that's /etc/fstab (no dot, typo)
[06:48] <nacho> hey great site bisigi
[06:48] <tiox> Windows working on my laptop rather.
[06:49] <tiox> Has Rug been in here?
[06:49] <john38> hey i got a question
[06:49] <jebadia> i really need some noob help too
[06:49] <nacho> im noob in ubuntu
[06:49] <tiox> Waht, Dr_Willis, what is that?
[06:49] <`3Shades> Can I move my virtual boxes over too?
[06:49] <tiox> Wait*
[06:50] <tiox> Also, `3Shades gave us the answer.
[06:50] <tiox> He has other Oss installed.
[06:50] <nacho> is there a way to install my cam ? got a netbook
[06:50] <`3Shades> Dr_Willis, I did that...
[06:50] <tiox> But Dr_Willis, please explain what apt_cache is.
[06:51] <tiox> Because I might want to dump it too, but I want to be sure of it's purpose.
[06:51] <`3Shades> yeah I have virtual boxes from dos 4.0 to windows vista ultimate installed... heh.. *sheepish look*
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> tiox:  /var/cache/apt/archives/ has a cache of most all yoru .deb files the package manager has downloaded.
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> tiox:  ive seen it get a few GB large befor.
[06:51] <tiox> Well them, if I remove these, say i don't want a program anymore, will it then not uninstall?
[06:51] <`3Shades> I even got a copy of windows 2.0 oh yeah lol
[06:52] <`3Shades> it's a shell to run word lol
[06:52] <tiox> Because I assume apt-cache is just an uninstall dir.
[06:52] <Dr_Willis> tiox:  its not an Uninstall dir
[06:52] <Dr_Willis> its a 'cache' of downlaoded packages
[06:52]  * bintut waves
[06:52] <Dr_Willis> Hmm. bash completion for many of the apt commands seems broken on this new install.
[06:52] <tiox> Okay. So even without that, Synaptic will work with full functionality.
[06:53] <ImAlive> wow, ailurus, the newest version has a new setting called computer DR. it fixes Ubunu things. It fixed my wrongly named packages.
[06:53] <AbhiJit> is there any way i can shorten this ctrl shift u20b9 ? which is used to type rupee symbol?
[06:53] <ImAlive> coolness
[06:53] <AbhiJit> e.g. i want it to be ctrl+r+s
[06:53] <ImAlive> it better then Ubuntu tweak
[06:53] <thinkr> hey all... i have a problem with my ubuntu 10.01LTS on my laptop
[06:53] <`3Shades> Alright I moved my os files and changed my remount for dosbox and still working on moving my /home dir..
[06:54] <Dr_Willis> ive had issues with ailuurus in the past.
[06:54] <thinkr> the wireless shows up... but no wireless is being shown
[06:54] <bintut> i just installed ubuntu-desktop 10.10 amd64 on my pc. i was trying to search for the package similar to xen-4 but i can't find one. anybody can tell me how i can install xen-4 on my ubuntu 10.10 system?

[06:55] <jebadia2> does anybody know why after installing a vodeo card umbuntu wont boot to the gui it goes in to a console mode to log in after splash screen
[06:55] <`3Shades> now should that be a symbolic link?

[06:56]  * Snorlax snores
[06:56] <Dr_Willis> jebadia2:  you did install the proper drivers for that card? or have you not done so yet?
[06:56] <inuyasha> jebadia2: you must use ati~~
[06:56] <thinkr> hey... i had installed ubuntu on my previous laptop and it worked all fine
[06:56] <jebadia2> ya it has the nvidia drivewrs installed
[06:56] <tiox> Dr_Willis: Must I be in root terminal to trash the archive folder?
[06:57] <pi3ch> has anybody use Mutt here?
[06:57] <Dr_Willis> jebadia2:  check that you have a nvidia  settings in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file

[06:57] <Dr_Willis> tiox:  to mess with system dirs/files one needs root access normally. a good program would ask for the password if its not ran as root allready
[06:57] <pi3ch> anybody use Mutt?
[06:57] <jebadia2> i i dont know how to use the command lines yet im noob
[06:57] <tiox> I got flat-out denied.

[06:59] <thinkr> due to the wireless not working, i can't update ubuntu or install anything!
[06:59] <AbhiJit> Snorlax, yes?
[06:59] <Swishahouse> Greetings =)
[06:59] <Snorlax> snorlax
[06:59] <Swishahouse> SNORLAX!
[06:59]  * Snorlax snores
[07:00] <Swish> . . .
[07:00]  * Swishahouse flings some pokeballs around
[07:00] <Memnochxx> It's a laptop, carry it to your router and plug in an ethernet cable.
[07:00] <c0nv1ct> thinkr, find cat5
[07:00]  * Snorlax is captured
[07:00] <Guest70754> I'm having trouble with sound, on a couple programs like lmms and Hydrogen the sound is really freaking distorted, been reading for three or four hours and haven't found any solutions yet, anyone know how to fix this?
[07:00]  * Snorlax 3..2..1
[07:00]  * Swish a house
[07:00] <Swishahouse> =D
[07:00] <jebadia2> is there a command line to launch the monitors options screen
[07:00] <Snorlax> nope
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  yes. You cant do hard links across filesystems...
[07:00] <Swishahouse> Is there an easy way to clean up old kernels or is it best to just go into synaptic and remove them?? I'm low on drive space ><
[07:00] <Snorlax> no such protocol exists between the monitor and the video card
[07:00] <jebadia2> shit
[07:01] <Snorlax> you can't reach the button?
[07:01] <rusivi> thinkr Do you know who the mfg/model of your wifi internal NIC is?
[07:01] <jebadia2> no for the drivers and such
[07:01] <thinkr> irealtek
[07:01] <thinkr> realtek
[07:02] <`3Shades> Dr_Willis, you think this will break my wine installs?
[07:03] <rusivi> thinkr: When you go to System -> Hardware Drivers does a prop driver pop up foryour wireless NIC, if so is it being used atm?
[07:03] <jebadia2> so there is no way to acess the monitor optionbs threw a command line
[07:03] <thinkr> nope. nothing comes there
[07:04] <Snorlax> jebadia2, some things can be accessed with nvidia-settings
[07:04] <Snorlax> but are you talking about a CRT or what
[07:04] <AbhiJit> what is the default 'script' in character map?
[07:04] <jebadia2> dammit i dont have a floppy on this laptop to make a fdisk floppy if this hd wont reainstall im forked
[07:04] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  linking one dirctory to another.. is a filesystem feature. if done right. the programs wont know
[07:04] <thinkr> a friend of mine had checked the terminal using somethinf lspci command, and got to know from there that the make is realtek
[07:05] <pseydtonne> 'lspci' lists the stuff in your PCI and other mobo slots.
[07:05] <rusivi> thinkr: Then your best bet at this point is to install Maverick and see if it works, otherwise your going to have to dive down the rabbit hole of trying to figure it ouw why it's not working.
[07:06] <ImAlive> is there a way to exit all apps that have a exclusive lock?
[07:07] <ImAlive> i dont know which does
[07:07] <thinkr> maverick??
[07:07] <Necrogami|Work> Can you change the position of the Login box on GDM?
[07:07] <Snorlax> ImAlive, what do you mean by exclusive lock
[07:07] <jebadia2> ill just reinstall
[07:07] <ImAlive> im trying to run update manager and it cant get a ock
[07:07] <ImAlive> lock
[07:08] <thinkr> ohk... new version...
[07:08] <Snorlax> what does it get stuck on
[07:08] <Dr_Willis> Necrogami|Work:  not  that ive ever noticed. theres some XML config files for it that might have some setting.
[07:08] <Snorlax> grub?
[07:08] <Dr_Willis> jebadia2:  the nvidia-xconfig tool lets you tweak the xorg.conf via command line.
[07:08] <Necrogami|Work> Dr_Willis: i know it's possible now .. i just found a theme on gnome-look.org that had it moved to the lower right corner..
[07:08] <AbhiJit> i am unable to find the Ōé╣ in character map. please help
[07:08] <Snorlax> ImAlive, ^^
[07:08] <Necrogami|Work> ill tear into this one
[07:08] <ImAlive> thinkr, www.ubuntu.com 10.10 :)
[07:08] <Dr_Willis> Necrogami|Work:  that was a gdm2 theme? or a gdm1 theme?
[07:09] <Necrogami|Work> im looking
[07:09] <Firefishe> ImAlive: Is there another application using apt? Like synaptic?
[07:09] <ImAlive> i cant see anything in system manager
[07:09] <Snorlax> ImAlive, the exact text of the error you're getting from update manager would be more helpful than a vague anecdote and a clueless guess of what to do
[07:09] <Necrogami|Work> Dr_Willis: how can i tell GDM1 vs GDM2?
[07:10] <Dr_Willis> Necrogami|Work:  Ive not really noticed ANY gdm2 themes out.. gdm2 is not very themable it seems..  I havent even looked at themes for gdm in ages. so No idea
[07:10] <Necrogami|Work> :(
[07:10] <ImAlive> nah, some dude gave me a terminal command ounce that dropped all elevations
[07:10] <ImAlive> thats what im looking for
[07:10] <Dr_Willis> If you reallly MUST have themes for gdm. you can use gdm1. but im not going to bend over backwards for themes for a login screen i see for 3 sec....
[07:11] <Snorlax> ImAlive, good luck
[07:11] <ImAlive> lol
[07:11] <Snorlax> ImAlive, I could tell you waht to do if you gave me the damn error
[07:11] <ImAlive> basically it closed all synaptics
[07:11] <Snorlax> killall synaptic
[07:11] <ImAlive> yeA
[07:11] <Snorlax> if you had given me the error I would have known you were talking about locks on dpkg
[07:11] <ImAlive> do i suso that
[07:11] <ImAlive> sudo
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> that may not remove the lock files.
[07:12] <Dr_Willis> !fixapt
[07:13] <ibrahim-kasem> My printer gone crazy now it doesnt stop printing the same paper and I can't restart because I don't have the password!
[07:13] <Snorlax> unplug the printer
[07:14] <pseydtonne> ibrahim-kasem: I second Snorlax. Either unplug the printer cable or turn off the dang printer.
[07:14] <Snorlax> pseydtonne, don't worry, it already ran out of paper by now
[07:14] <Snorlax> lol
[07:14] <ibrahim-kasem> I did not thing about this it worked! thank you guys pseydtonne Snorlax
[07:16] <ibrahim-kasem> now it stopped printing anything!!!
[07:16] <pseydtonne> ...cuz it's off.
[07:16] <ibrahim-kasem> I turned it on dude.
[07:16] <ImAlive> lol
[07:16] <silv3r_m00n> I installed an app using winetricks ,now how do I run it ?
[07:16] <pseydtonne> Linux probably doesn't know that yet.
[07:16] <silv3r_m00n> winetricks ie6 , that installed ie6 , now how to run ie6 ?
[07:17] <ImAlive> why do you want ie6? on Linux?
[07:17] <ImAlive> hehehe
[07:17] <silv3r_m00n> how do I run it
[07:17] <ibrahim-kasem> OMG !!! IE6 on Ubuntu !!
[07:17] <Dr_Willis> silv3r_m00n:  that may just install/setup the wine programs to see firefox instead of IE. not actually install ie.
[07:17] <Dr_Willis> If it was installed it should be in the wine menus
[07:18] <Gnea> !ies4linux
[07:18] <silv3r_m00n> I can't see it in the wine menu :(
[07:18] <ImAlive> traders
[07:18] <ImAlive> hehhee
[07:18] <Gnea> ImAlive: ?
[07:18] <silv3r_m00n> Gnea: thanks , I have used that , but for now I need to use winetricks
[07:18]  * ImAlive hides
[07:18] <emergion> Hey all, Can someone please help me fix my issue with Additional Drivers? The list is blank and I really need the latest Nvidia Drviers as the 10.10 upgrade has completely wrecked any chance of getting Nvidia drivers running ATM
[07:18] <silv3r_m00n> after installation I can't see it in wine menus
[07:18] <Dr_Willis> silv3r_m00n:  which leads me to belive that the winetricks thing just 'fixs' wine apps to think that its installed. Check teh winetricks docs to double check
[07:19] <Snorlax> How do I program pokemon on ubuntu?
[07:19] <kamalesh> My PC : Vaio EA16FG, ATI Radeon 5650 1GB, Ubuntu 10.10 64it. I connected an external monitor, Is it possible for me to use 1 workspace in 1 monitor ?
[07:20] <ImAlive> kamalesh,  thts usually yhr case on all OS's is it not?
[07:20] <Snorlax> How do I install ubuntu on my mom's computer?
[07:20] <ImAlive> the
[07:20] <kamalesh> ImAlive: ?
[07:20] <pseydtonne> Snorlax: ask nicely.
[07:20] <Gnea> Snorlax: the same way you install it on your computer
[07:20] <ImAlive> nm, gawed i should sleep
[07:21] <pseydtonne> ...then get your own machine from the street.
[07:21] <emergion> Anyone? Has anyone had any problems with nvidia drivers after upgrading to 10.10, Google tells me a lot of people have had problems but there is little in the way of answers
[07:21] <Snorlax> Gnea, my mom says it's ok to install but the way I usually install on my computer is by copying the whole disk
[07:21] <Snorlax> Gnea, she said I can't delete whats on there now like she has lots of pics and stuff
[07:21] <Snorlax> she does some hobby called latex or something
[07:21] <Snorlax> i dunno
[07:22] <Dr_Willis> Snorlax:  then use a flash drive..
[07:22] <kamalesh> My PC : Vaio EA16FG, ATI Radeon 5650 1GB, Ubuntu 10.10 64it. I connected an external monitor, Is it possible for me to use 1 workspace in 1 monitor ?
[07:22] <Gnea> Snorlax: for writing papers?
[07:22]  * Dr_Willis installs ie7 via winetricks.. for fun.
[07:22] <Gnea> Snorlax: back all of her stuff up first
[07:22] <Snorlax> Gnea, no you wear it.. you can write papers with it?
[07:22] <pseydtonne> I think Snorlax is snow jobbing us.
[07:22] <waltercool> Snorlax, Latex, the GOOD PRACTICE writting papers?
[07:22] <waltercool> or other kinds of documents?
[07:23] <Dr_Willis> !info LaTeX
[07:23] <Snorlax> no that's LaTeX, i'm talking like, the petroleum product that you wear for erotic pleasure
[07:23] <Snorlax> so  anyway
[07:23] <waltercool> !info texlive
[07:23] <Gnea> Snorlax: okay, that's way offtopic
[07:23] <emergion> upgrade was a mess
[07:23] <ImAlive> *brother*
[07:23] <Dr_Willis> So anyway
[07:23] <Dr_Willis> !ot
[07:23] <ImAlive> this is Ubuntu chat Ty.
[07:23] <kamalesh> My PC : Vaio EA16FG, ATI Radeon 5650 1GB, Ubuntu 10.10 64it. I connected an external monitor, Is it possible for me to use 1 workspace in 1 monitor ?
[07:23] <Snorlax> no no, but she wants me to install latex on her computer so that she can write her PhD thesis
[07:24] <Snorlax> I'm not kidding
[07:24] <Gnea> Snorlax: anyway, back her files up before messing with things
[07:24] <Snorlax> how do I do that?
[07:24] <silv3r_m00n> when trying to install ies4linux I get this >> Your wine does not have wineprefixcreate installed. Maybe you are running an old Wine version. Try to update it to the latest version.
[07:24] <silv3r_m00n> me on karmic 64bit
[07:24] <Snorlax> Gnea, I can't back them up she says I am not allowed to look at them
[07:24] <Snorlax> because they are of her and another guy, not dad
[07:24] <Snorlax> both LaTeX
[07:24]  * Dr_Willis thinks its time for a boot.
[07:24] <Snorlax> latex boots arre hot
[07:24] <Snorlax> my mom has those
[07:25] <emergion> Ok can someone tell me how to get my hands on the Kernel Source? I will have to build the drivers by hand from Nvidia
[07:25] <Dr_Willis> !kernel
[07:25] <emergion> I cannot see anything about the latest kernel source under package manager?
[07:25] <emergion> nice
[07:25] <Dr_Willis> emergion:  what nvidia card are you using?
[07:25] <Snorlax> emergion, you should only need the headers to compile nvidia drivers.
[07:25] <Gnea> Snorlax: well then, you have your answer.
[07:25] <tech2077> i would like to ask, where can i go to learn about how to program device drivers, and yes i have C experience
[07:25] <emergion> Snorlax, yes this is true :)
[07:26] <Snorlax> emergion, you probably have them
[07:26] <Snorlax> but the package is probably called like linux-headers-xx or somethign
[07:26] <emergion> Dr_Willis, 1:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G72 [GeForce 7300 SE/7200 GS] (rev a1)
[07:26] <tech2077> linux header packages are default installed
[07:26] <Snorlax> I personally can't use the open source nvidia driver that comes with ubuntu.. it's no good on my chipset
[07:26] <tiox> Wow, Dr_Willis was right.
[07:26] <dios_mio> is 10.10 worth the download?
[07:26] <tech2077> depends
[07:27] <tiox> dios_mio: Not if you don't like the color orange.
[07:27] <yapsol> My OS is Ubuntu 10.10. I'm using Free Download Manager 2.1 build 494 under Wine 1.3.5 (I also tested it with the stable Wine version from the repositories). It works properly, except for FTP files. Trying to start a FTP download always crashes FDM. Does anyone have the same problem here?
[07:27] <tech2077> lol
[07:27] <Gnea> dios_mio: are you looking for problems or solutions?
[07:27] <emergion> Snorlax, yes I do have that but only from 2.6.32?
[07:27] <dios_mio> hrm
[07:27] <ImAlive> when i try to install compiz/fusion extra's this is the error, "compiz-fusion-plugins-extra:

[07:27] <emergion> *have them
[07:27] <yapsol> dios_mio, I'm using it here and I think it is worth the download if you want the latest software.
[07:27] <kamalesh> My PC : Vaio EA16FG, ATI Radeon 5650 1GB, Ubuntu 10.10 64it. I connected an external monitor, Is it possible for me to use 1 workspace in 1 monitor ?
[07:27] <GGreybeard> test
[07:27] <Snorlax> emergion, uname -a says what?
[07:27] <dios_mio> thx
[07:27] <soreau> ImAlive: The problem is that you have ppas enabled
[07:27] <yapsol> I didn't have any serious problems here using 10.10.
[07:27] <soreau> ImAlive: Remove the ppas and reinstall compiz
[07:28] <tiox> I deleted the apt cache and I got back .6 GB
[07:28] <Gnea> dios_mio: are you on 10.04 right now?
[07:28] <tech2077> is there a help section for developers, can find it on chan list
[07:28] <emergion> Linux mnm 2.6.35-22-generic #34-Ubuntu SMP Sun Oct 10 09:24:00 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
[07:28] <yapsol> Actually, I didn't hace any problems.
[07:28] <ImAlive> that simple
[07:28] <ImAlive> no way

[07:28] <emergion> Different version
[07:28] <emergion> Snorlax, Linux mnm 2.6.35-22-generic #34-Ubuntu SMP Sun Oct 10 09:24:00 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux sorry
[07:28] <Dr_Willis> kamalesh:  workspaces dont work that way. If you want one app to stay on a second monitor all the time you can make it 'always on top' and 'always on visible workspace'
[07:28]  * beric cannot resume from suspend-to-ram after upgrading to 10.10.
[07:28] <Snorlax> emergion, well install linux-headers-2.6.35 or whatever
[07:28] <Snorlax> they're in apt somewhere
[07:29] <Snorlax> the nvidia installer can probably figure out which headers to use by invoking uname
[07:29] <emergion> I tried, they are not there that is why i am asking you guys, maybe there is something I had to enable a repo or something?
[07:29] <Snorlax> did you install a custom kernel?
[07:29] <Snorlax> because if you didn't, the headers *ARE* there
[07:29] <beric> Can anybody help us, at least in getting an error message  -http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1596545
[07:29] <DanaG> nvidia installer breaks stuff!
[07:29] <DanaG> Don't use nvidia installer.
[07:29] <DanaG> Use packaged version, or X Updates repo.
[07:29] <Snorlax> the packaged version is the open source driver and it sucks
[07:30] <Dr_Willis> The pacakged version is different then the open sourced driver..
[07:30] <emergion> DanaG, The ones from the package manager do not work
[07:30] <Snorlax> I had the same experience
[07:30] <Snorlax> that the ones from the package manager, did not work.
[07:31] <emergion> Sorry guys my bad, I could find the latest headers in aptitude
[07:31] <Dr_Willis> !headers
[07:31] <emergion> Not sure why they are not in the PM but oh well
[07:31] <Snorlax> so I installed using nvidia-installer and when my kernel version changes I have to recompile
[07:31] <ImAlive> ty soreau, but is it safe to sat then the the comiz ppa is not safe to use for the immediate foreseeable future?
[07:31] <DanaG> Try X Updates.
[07:31] <Snorlax> having to recompile a driver when you update the kernel is hardly 'broken'
[07:31] <Snorlax> it's just less convenient
[07:31] <DanaG> Snorlax: you'll also have to reinstall each time Mesa gets updates.
[07:31] <emergion> DanaG, I would normally install them from Additional Drivers, but that seems broken in 10.10
[07:31] <barbseven> hello all
[07:32] <soreau> ImAlive: Compiz 0.9 works fine but AFAIK, there is no ubuntu compiz ppa the works correctly
[07:32] <tiox> BRB guys, I gotta pop off here and use my HSPA modem to install more stuff.
[07:32] <soreau> ImAlive: If you want to know more, ask in #compiz
[07:33] <ImAlive>  i see ty.
[07:34] <barbseven> I have a macbook pro 5,5; I love ubuntu and am getting ready to make the switch to ubuntu again, but I have tried it once before, everything does work after some playing around, but one issue i have with it is, the wireless takes forever to connect, like 5 minutes, its the airport extreme. ubuntu supplies the B43 and STA broadcom driver. but these don't work very well, and when my download speed is topping out the wireless 
[07:34] <barbseven> disconnect, please tell me someone has a solution?
[07:35] <Snorlax> I have a solution you might like
[07:35] <blakkheim> barbseven: there is no such wifi chipset as "airport extreme" - that's an apple marketing term
[07:35] <Snorlax> you can sell the macbook pro, take half the money, and buy a brand new intel laptop
[07:35] <barbseven> I apologise for using incorrect terms
[07:35] <Snorlax> take the other half and buy a prostitute and a 40
[07:35] <Snorlax> and then your wireless will work like a charm
[07:35] <ImAlive> BROTHER
[07:36] <yapsol> i should be laughing here, but it can't be helped
[07:36] <barbseven> snorlax, your a jackass
[07:36] <nickhtp> yea, don't say that
[07:36] <Gnea> enough.
[07:36] <ImAlive> broadcom is going open source
[07:36] <Snorlax> barbseven, really, linux on mac sucks. just buy intel hardware if you're gonna run ubuntu
[07:36] <Snorlax> you can sell that thing for top dollar
[07:36] <Gnea> !ot | barbseven, Snorlax
[07:36] <Snorlax> even if its old
[07:36] <barbseven> errrm the chipset is intel?
[07:36] <Snorlax> of course, mac is intel
[07:36] <Snorlax> which raises the question
[07:37] <yapsol> and if you have powerpc, ubuntu is being maintained by community
[07:37] <Snorlax> why do you even want a mac if you're running linux? you like white plastic?
[07:37] <Gnea> Snorlax: did your mom not teach you respect?
[07:37] <Gnea> !guidelines > Snorlax
[07:37] <barbseven> its a macbook pro, aluminium! 7 hour battery life and I like the way they are built.
[07:37] <tech2077> same
[07:38] <Snorlax> man, you could probably sell it and buy 3 ibm thinkpads
[07:38] <nickhtp> yapsol: That is very cool I remember seeing those ISOs at cdimages.ubuntu.com
[07:38] <tech2077> Apple makes goood hardware, i won't comment on software
[07:38] <ibrahim-kasem> I bought a new hp printer p1005 when I am using windows the stupid printer works perfectly but on my juanty sometimes it doesnt print at all or most of the times. what should I do please? :(
[07:38] <tech2077> good*
[07:38] <barbseven> hence why i want to go to ubuntu again
[07:38] <tech2077> :)
[07:38] <spinningcompass> ibrahim-kasem: Does the HP P1005 understand Postscript?
[07:39] <ibrahim-kasem> spinningcompass: How can I know this please?
[07:39] <barbseven> can anyone help me with my problem without being a smart arse
[07:39] <ImAlive> im loving my Dell studioXPS 1640 >:)
[07:39] <spinningcompass> ibrahim-kasem: Your printer should come with a manual. In the back, it will list the languages that the printer can understand.
[07:39] <tech2077> hmm, don't most windows printer installers have the pdd files on the disk
[07:39] <spinningcompass> ibrahim-kasem: Typically, HP printers understand HCL and Postscript (if memory serves me correctly).
[07:40] <Snorlax> barbseven, contrary to what you may feel, I was being entirely serious. When driver support sucks, it sucks. It sucks because there's a lack of interest in developing the particular driver.
[07:40] <Dr_Willis> The linux printing web site may have some info on that printer also.
[07:40] <ImAlive> an Ubuntu recognized my lappy right on install.
[07:40] <tedge> barbseven, have you tried VirtualBox? I'm running it on my MBP, no problems with wireless (since it's handled by the native OS).
[07:40] <barbseven> *Sigh*
[07:40] <nope> what I dont understand is why anyone would run ubuntu on their mac when they got osx :)
[07:40] <Snorlax> tedge, that is probably the best suggestion
[07:40] <Dr_Willis> nope:  my Mac has OS-9 :)
[07:40] <Gnea> Snorlax: that's not entirely true.
[07:40] <barbseven> a few reasons
[07:40] <spinningcompass> nope: For technical reasons
[07:40] <nope> Dr_Willis: that would be a good point :)
[07:41] <Snorlax> Gnea, oh, how else are drivers developed? by magic?
[07:41] <blakkheim> spinningcompass: oh?
[07:41] <pseydtonne> Magic!
[07:41] <Dr_Willis> nope:  it works very well as a doorstop
[07:41] <pseydtonne> Totally magic!
[07:41] <nope> hehehe
[07:41] <ImAlive> why have osX if they really want UNIX get freeBSD
[07:41] <Gnea> Snorlax: no, but apparently your attitude is.
[07:41] <yapsol> regarding battery life, i think that mac os might manage battery better than ubuntu
[07:41] <nope> ImAlive: well, osx just works? :)
[07:41] <ImAlive> h@!
[07:41] <blakkheim> yapsol: very true
[07:41] <nope> dont get me wrong, I run ubuntu at work
[07:41] <ImAlive> good joke
[07:42] <barbseven> firstly, I like the feel of ubuntu over mac osx, second: osx 10.6 has next to no customisation potential.
[07:42] <ibrahim-kasem> spinningcompass:  This is what I know, also sometimes it works!
[07:42] <tech2077> same
[07:42] <Gnea> ImAlive: your commentary is also unnecessary.
[07:42] <ImAlive> i love watcing spinning beach balls
[07:42] <ImAlive> ok
[07:42] <ibrahim-kasem> spinningcompass: I am searching for its manual.
[07:42] <Snorlax> I like linux more than OS X too.
[07:42] <Dr_Willis> barbseven:  I seem tor ecall several forum threads on mac support. but ive never looked at them much
[07:42] <barbseven> i like that you can mould ubuntu to your specific wants and needs
[07:42] <beric> does resuming from  suspend-to-ram wrks on OSX ? cause on ubuntu 10.10 it doesn't.
[07:42] <spinningcompass> ibrahim-kasem: Good. :) Can you send a test page to the printer from your Linux box? Does the test page print?
[07:43] <tech2077> It comes down to, do you want linux or mac os x :P
[07:43] <Gnea> just an FYI, this channel *is* publicly logged.
[07:43] <ibrahim-kasem> spinningcompass: Now it doesn't but some times it does!
[07:43] <barbseven> beric - even though I am in an I.T> profession I apologise because I don't know what all the terms mean, atleast the ones being used in this channel
[07:43] <spinningcompass> ibrahim-kasem: Does the printer beep or flash? Perhaps there's a check box - "Pause before new page" or something - which must be checked in the driver.
[07:43] <tech2077> What you post here can be read by others
[07:44] <barbseven> linux any day of the week
[07:44] <tech2077> yep
[07:44] <Snorlax> beric, suspend and resume work on ubuntu 10.10, probably just not on your particular hardware
[07:44] <tech2077> is there a help section for developers, can't find it on chan list, like those that want to find out more about driver dev
[07:44] <ibrahim-kasem> spinningcompass: The light is always green,
[07:44] <nickhtp> I'm looking for a small desktop machine. Staples and the office max stopped selling those little PCs. Does it make more sense to spend $60 at gamestop for a PS2 and then hack it to run linux?
[07:45] <Snorlax> tech2077, lkml is where you will find out about linux driver dev
[07:45] <barbseven> suspend and resume even work on the macbook pro, although it can be delayed
[07:45] <beric> Snorlax: and also on these guys hardware as well, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1596545
[07:45] <ImAlive> i put Ubuntu on a ps2?
[07:45] <spinningcompass> nickhtp: I would urge you to look at the Asus Eee 1000 series or the Toshiba NB305 instead.
[07:45] <Gnea> ImAlive: you do?
[07:45] <beric> Snorlax: it's too much already...
[07:45] <ImAlive> can ti be done?
[07:45] <ibrahim-kasem> spinningcompass: I am reading its manual and Linux is not in the supported OS list.
[07:45] <Firefishe> linux/gnu, tux brings powerful edge, top with wasabi!
[07:45] <Dr_Willis> Gotta love Make ubuntu look like a Mac Articals --> http://lifehacker.com/5665765/macbuntu-makes-your-linux-desktop-look-like-mac-os-x
[07:46] <Snorlax> In my years of using linux I have only seen swsusp work a couple times
[07:46] <Gnea> ImAlive: yes, but it's not an easy process. sony actually worked to help make a linux distro for it.
[07:46] <Firefishe> blast! my 2nd stanza had 6 instead of 7
[07:46] <ImAlive> i new that much, for research they did
[07:46] <Gnea> Snorlax: how many years is that?
[07:46] <Snorlax> like 8
[07:46] <Gnea> ah
[07:46] <barbseven> dr_wills that = fail
[07:47]  * Gnea remembers installing linux 14 years ago
[07:47] <Dr_Willis> PS2 linux - a big thing back when it came out.. then not mentioned much  after a few months. :)
[07:47] <Snorlax> my first distro was red hat 9
[07:47] <barbseven> os x looks crap anyway
[07:47] <barbseven> why ruin ubuntu
[07:47] <Snorlax> i am not that big of a veteran, but I was using it before ubuntu existed
[07:47] <Dr_Willis> Ive seen Mini sized netbook-type hardware desktop machines on sale for $230 or so in recent weeks.
[07:47] <nickhtp> Gnea & ImAlive: Hm, ok. :0(
[07:47] <ImAlive> cause the cell processor made by IBM is still the fastest architecture out there.
[07:47] <kamalesh> My PC : Vaio EA16FG, ATI Radeon 5650 1GB, Ubuntu 10.10 64it. I connected an external monitor, Is it possible for me to use 1 workspace in 1 monitor ?
[07:47] <Snorlax> ubuntu must have like quadrupled linux's user base
[07:47] <Gnea> redhat 4.1, after I couldn't figure out slackware or freebsd
[07:47] <silv3r_m00n> is thre any software in ubuntu that can read barcodes from scanned images ?
[07:47] <beric> Snorlax: my first was slackware 3, suspend to ram worked ever since i had a linux laptop.
[07:47] <Gnea> and then they made sense a few months later
[07:48] <barbseven> online software yes
[07:48] <Gnea> beric: 3.4 was a massive boone
[07:48] <Snorlax> beric, oh, see I've gotten it to "work"
[07:48] <Snorlax> but after you resume
[07:48] <Snorlax> it's the twilight zone
[07:48] <Snorlax> and other drivers fail
[07:48] <Snorlax> etc
[07:48] <Firefishe> I started with Mandrake 5.x, then found Debian and apt, and now, (K)Ubuntu, and haven't looked back.
[07:48] <Snorlax> so I haven't really tried it that many times
[07:48] <nickhtp> Backtrace Linux still uses the ``root : toor'' password combo from Torvalds' linux 1.0.
[07:48] <beric> yeah that's what I mean.
[07:48] <ImAlive> my first Linux install was SUSE
[07:49] <blakkheim> nickhtp: backtrack, you mean
[07:49] <barbseven> fedora for me
[07:49] <Jordan_U> !ot
[07:49] <SoulShadow> I BACKEDTRACED IT
[07:49] <Firefishe> oops...thought it was offtopic...sowwy
[07:49] <Gnea> heh
[07:49] <Snorlax> If you use BackTrack, it means you are a31337 hax0r
[07:49] <blakkheim> nickhtp: i didn't get your PM, what is it?
[07:49] <WilliamHerry> yast is usefull
[07:50] <nickhtp> Yes sir, blakkheim. :0)
[07:50] <tech2077> BackTrack has some useful stuff
[07:50] <Snorlax> infact
[07:50] <barbseven> i hate leetspeek
[07:50] <Gnea> I use backtrack when necessary. the last time I used it was to resurrect an almost dead ubuntu system.
[07:50] <Snorlax> i don't even know why I am trolling here when I could be trolling backtrack's channel
[07:50] <tech2077> lol
[07:50] <Gnea> right tool for the job
[07:50] <tech2077> yep
[07:50] <ImAlive> but the .deb file for Ubuntu from Debian, givem credit.
[07:50] <ImAlive> hehe see i kept ubuntu in there
[07:51] <tech2077> even though, more suited for testing to see if you can crack your wifi wep key
[07:51] <yapsol> because trolling is bad and if you get someone angry enough you can be klined from the network
[07:51] <barbseven> so no-one has a solution for the wireless problem?
[07:51] <nast> pretty easy to make ones own livecd, given debian-live :)
[07:51] <Gnea> barbseven: sorry, never saw it
[07:51] <ImAlive> yes nast
[07:51] <Friar> can someone help me get a VPN going? I'm having  a LOT of trouble and I'm not sure why this is so difficuld.
[07:51] <ActionParsnip> nast: or use the remaster guide
[07:51] <barbseven> ok ill copy and paste
[07:51] <barbseven> I have a macbook pro 5,5; I love ubuntu and am getting ready to make the switch to ubuntu again, but I have tried it once before, everything does work after some playing around, but one issue i have with it is, the wireless takes forever to connect, like 5 minutes, its the airport extreme. ubuntu supplies the B43 and STA broadcom driver. but these don't work very well, and when my download speed is topping out the wireless 
[07:51] <barbseven> disconnect, please tell me someone has a solution?
[07:51] <ActionParsnip> !vpn | Friar
[07:51] <FloodBot3> barbseven: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:52] <Gnea> Friar: your best bet is to figure out what you want it to do and then explain that
[07:52] <ibrahim-kasem> spinningcompass:  How can I activate "Pause before new page" please? where can i find this option?
[07:52] <ActionParsnip> barbseven: could try ndiswrapper instead
[07:52] <ImAlive> Synaptic has a debian live disc creator you can install even does it not?
[07:52] <ActionParsnip> !away | JimmyJ|zz
[07:52] <barbseven> ndiswrapper? forgive me if i don't know what your talking about lol
[07:52] <kamalesh> Config : Vaio laptop, ATI Radeon 5650 1 GB, Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit.  I have connected an external monitor (not HDMI) , can i use 1 screen for 1 workspace and the other for a diff workspace ?
[07:52] <rohan> how do i start ubuntu 10.10 livecd in "safe graphics mode"? i'm having problems with my nvidia card.
[07:53] <tedge> barbseven - not a perfect solution, but you might consider a USB wireless adapter
[07:53] <ActionParsnip> barbseven: why the 'lol'?
[07:53] <MonthOLDpickle> I don't know what to do
[07:53] <barbseven> sorry
[07:53] <Dr_Willis> ImAlive:  you could also check out the web-based live cd remaster tool -> https://reconstructor.apphosted.com/
[07:53] <MonthOLDpickle> Lubuntu is fast
[07:53] <Friar> Gnea, I want to be able to browse the internet with the ip address of my server in the US. I'm in germany for work and my wife has some shows that she likes to watch online....can't watch them with an IP address outside of the US>
[07:53] <MonthOLDpickle> efficent but my bt is buggy and no sound
[07:53] <MonthOLDpickle> what should I install on my min9i
[07:53] <barbseven> nervous "lol" i feel like i have an IQ of about 10 in this room
[07:53] <ibrahim-kasem> spinningcompass: Where can I find this box please? "Pause before new page"
[07:53] <Gnea> Friar: then openvpn is what you're after
[07:53] <ActionParsnip> barbseven: go research it up. Its used if no native solution exists
[07:53] <Blue1> barbseven: welcome to the club
[07:54] <`3Shades> I want to make sure I have this clear: ln -s /home /newdrive/home will create a symbolic link from my home directory to my new home directory on my new drive that I just copied right? or do I need to flip the two..
[07:54] <Friar> Gnea. I know that.
[07:54] <ImAlive> ty
[07:54] <spinningcompass> ibrahim-kasem: Which printer driver is Ubuntu currently using?
[07:54] <ActionParsnip> MonthOLDpickle: lxde + openbox are lighter than gnome + compiz (or metacity)
[07:54] <Gnea> Friar: then I suggest asking in #openvpn
[07:54] <ibrahim-kasem> spinningcompass: Am sorry I don't know which one! how can I know this as well.
[07:54] <SoulShadow> LXDE is awesome
[07:54] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  i always get it backwards.. make some test links and see which way it goes...
[07:54] <Friar> thanks Gnea. I appreciate it.
[07:54] <ImAlive> Dr_Willis,  im in love with apt_on_cd so is that not kind of the same?
[07:55] <ActionParsnip> MonthOLDpickle: if its a laptop it will make the battery last longer too
[07:55] <barbseven> ActionParsnip: thankyou I will have a look now, I have been searching for a solution for quite a while now
[07:55] <spinningcompass> ibrahim-kasem: From your Ubuntu main menu, select System, then choose Administration. Under the Administration menu, you will find an icon labeled Printing. Select this tool and within several seconds the Printer Configuration Tool will open.
[07:55] <nast> hmm, given /dev/blockdev, is there a way to make /dev/blockdev_ro?
[07:55] <Dr_Willis> ImAlive:  this remasters a LIVE cd with new packages. install program foo, the live cd (dvd) will have it there in the menus.. and it will be installed by default if you install from that dvd
[07:55] <ActionParsnip> barbseven: it uses the windows driver
[07:55] <kamalesh> Config : Vaio laptop, ATI Radeon 5650 1 GB, Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit.  I have connected an external monitor (not HDMI) , can i use 1 screen for 1 workspace and the other for a diff workspace ?
[07:55] <`3Shades> would it matter much if I do it both ways or would that screw it up?
[07:55] <Gnea> Friar: best of luck with that, openvpn is a bit daunting but it really rocks the house once it's up and running right
[07:55] <ImAlive> o
[07:55] <blakkheim> kamalesh: no
[07:55] <MonthOLDpickle> But ActionParsnip ..sound isn't working. bluetooth if turned off to save battery you need to restart.
[07:55] <kamalesh> blakkheim:  Oh :( ... thanks
[07:55] <ImAlive> *bookmarked*
[07:56] <MonthOLDpickle> lubuntu = ubuntu with lxde correct?
[07:56] <tech2077> heh
[07:56] <ActionParsnip> MonthOLDpickle: sounds like a project
[07:56] <Gnea> barbseven: it's not a broadcom?
[07:56] <barbseven> ActionParsnip: that doesn't sound very elegant?
[07:56] <barbseven> yes it is a broadcom
[07:56] <ActionParsnip> MonthOLDpickle: yes with openbox as WM
[07:56] <MonthOLDpickle> what?
[07:56] <ActionParsnip> barbseven: sure but it works
[07:56] <MonthOLDpickle> bt there is no work around
[07:56] <beric> We cant get back from there, once we've gone there's no way back. it was a fatal decision, and when you mistake you're loss. Suspend-to-RAM is unresumable.
[07:57] <Gnea> barbseven: seen this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook6-1/Lucid#Wireless
[07:57] <MonthOLDpickle> sound worked first install but not now
[07:57] <`3Shades> Dr_Willis, will it matter if I link both ways?
[07:57] <barbseven> Firmware Version:	Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (5.10.91.27)
[07:57] <ibrahim-kasem> spinningcompass: after "printing" what should I do please?
[07:57] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  it only works one way.. do the command.. check the links.. if it s wrong.. delete the bad link and do it the other way
[07:58] <nast> ahh, i can use losetup i think :>
[07:58] <ActionParsnip> barbseven: when the connection drops, run: dmesg | tail
[07:58] <ActionParsnip> barbseven: doesit mention ipv6?
[07:58] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  mkdir foo,  ln -s foo bar, ls -l foo bar
[07:58] <barbseven> yes i have seen that link before and have installed the drivers, they do work to some extent but are extremely buggy, by taking forever to connect and when im downloading at full speed it can drop out
[07:59] <barbseven> sorry? doesn't what mention IPv6?
[07:59] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  bar is the new name, guess its  ln -s MAKETHIS alsonownASthisNEWName
[07:59] <ActionParsnip> barbseven: in the output of the command is ipv6 mentioned
[07:59] <MonthOLDpickle> ActionParsnip, I turn off BT to save battery but if I want to use it later I have to reboot..I asked about it but its just how it is
[07:59] <spinningcompass> ibrahim-kasem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1495541 <-- it looks as if your HP P1500 series isn't a Linux favorite
[07:59] <spinningcompass> ibrahim-kasem: Also, see http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web...all/index.html
[07:59] <ibrahim-kasem> spinningcompass: Thank you. :)
[07:59] <ActionParsnip> MonthOLDpickle: can't you just start the bluetooth service after restarting the hal service?
[08:00] <MonthOLDpickle> it doesn't use hal
[08:00] <MonthOLDpickle> When I tried it always said failed to start dmx daemon
[08:00] <MonthOLDpickle> dmz***
[08:00] <barbseven> sorry i don't understand :S why do you want to know the IPv6?
[08:00] <ActionParsnip> MonthOLDpickle: after turning on the bluetooth, service starts should do it afair
[08:00] <MonthOLDpickle> how much different ids fedora lxde?
[08:00] <MonthOLDpickle> bt auto starts fine
[08:00] <MonthOLDpickle> but if I turn off
[08:01] <ImAlive> well this is unfortunate. After a 7 days of tinkering i cannot fix compiz. I will need to fix Linux the windows way an re-install maverick. :(
[08:01] <jackie89> Holy crumbmuffins... So many people!
[08:01] <MonthOLDpickle> no turning back on I asked that in #lubuntu
[08:01] <ImAlive> heh
[08:01] <blakkheim> !wnter | MonthOLDpickle
[08:01] <ActionParsnip> barbseven: jeez. Get the wireless connected. When it drops run the command. Can you see the 4 characters: ipv6 in the output. Its as simple as it sounds
[08:01] <blakkheim> !enter | MonthOLDpickle
[08:01] <jackie89> i'm having trouble connecting to the wireless internet, can anybody help me through it?

[08:02] <MonthOLDpickle> dell what mini 9? If so its a broadcom wireless card
[08:02] <barbseven> ok ok ok, this is embarrassing :S I don't have ubuntu currently running, I am about to make the switch to it again
[08:03] <jackie89> I'm about as technically savvy with this machine as a five year old, so please be gentle - i'm sorry i'm so clueless. @.@

[08:03] <jackie89> Dell mini 12, I think.
[08:03] <MonthOLDpickle> how big is the laptop screen

[08:05] <yakoza> how can i make a l2tp connection
[08:06] <ActionParsnip> jackie89: no, your system's hostname is not in /etc/hosts so the system failsto talk to itself
[08:06] <jackie89> ... Can i fix that?
[08:06] <jackie89> Or no?
[08:08] <ActionParsnip> jackie89: sure, you'll need to boot to root recovery mode and edit /etc/hosts with nano to match the output of: hostname
[08:08] <ActionParsnip> jackie89: the hostname MUST match the name on the line with 127.0.0.1
[08:09] <jackie89> I'm so sorry, but how do i do that?  Thank you so much for taking the time to help me... But could I please get step-by-step instructions?
[08:09] <striker> hi all
[08:09] <ActionParsnip> jackie89: reboot and hold shift, select recovery mode then select root
[08:09] <MonthOLDpickle> so what should I do? reinstall lubuntu?
[08:09] <striker> I need help !
[08:09] <ImAlive> i reported to launpad, an i got this in my email does it mean they confirmed the bug i discovered,    Status in Ubuntu Tweak: Confirmed
[08:10] <ibrahim-kasem> !ask | striker
[08:10] <jackie89> You mean restart the computer, ActionParsnip?
[08:10] <ActionParsnip> MonthOLDpickle: is the system branded?
[08:10] <ActionParsnip> jackie89: yes
[08:10] <striker> ok
[08:10] <jackie89> Okay, I'll do that right now.  Thank you so much. :D
[08:10] <MonthOLDpickle> ActionParsnip, I do not know what that term is refering to
[08:10] <jackie89> I'll be back once it's rebooted
[08:10] <jackie89> So it's restart and hold shift, then select recovery mode and select root.  Is there anything else i need to do after that?
[08:11] <ActionParsnip> MonthOLDpickle: is the system like a Dell or a Gateway or an Acer, abrand. Like a brand of trainers

[08:11] <ActionParsnip> jackie89: yes, just doing that does nothing
[08:11] <jackie89> But can I wait to do the other things until after I've come back onto IRC, ActionParsnip?
[08:12] <ActionParsnip> jackie89: then run: hostname ,write the output down. Case is important. Then run: nano /etc/hosts
[08:12] <ActionParsnip> jackie89: sure I'll probably be in bed b
[08:12] <soreau> ImAlive: Pastebin the output of dpkg -l|grep compiz
[08:12] <soreau> ImAlive: should show no ppa repos and <= 0.8.6
[08:12] <ImAlive> is this significant bug? KeyError: 'active_plugins' ?
[08:12] <jackie89> Ohhh, i see.
[08:12] <ActionParsnip> But tell folks you need to check hostname in /etc/hosts and it'll be understood, jackie89
[08:13] <jackie89> So i need to check hostname in /etc/hosts
[08:13] <ActionParsnip> MonthOLDpickle: ok so the brand is Dell
[08:13] <MonthOLDpickle> yes
[08:14] <MonthOLDpickle> its an intel atom single core 1.6 2gb ram 30gb ssd hd
[08:14] <ImAlive> heres where i reported, https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/653933
[08:14] <ActionParsnip> MonthOLDpickle: find ubuntu guides for that model. You may need some module options setting
[08:14] <MonthOLDpickle> ubuntu desktop 10.10 works flawlessly
[08:14] <ImAlive> oo its considered high bud
[08:14] <MonthOLDpickle> but it eats battery life
[08:14] <ImAlive> wow
[08:14] <ImAlive> bug
[08:15] <ActionParsnip> MonthOLDpickle: afaik, lubuntu doesn't use pulse, ubuntu does
[08:15] <MonthOLDpickle> ActionParsnip, thats why I tried lubuntu
[08:15] <jackie89> Okay, thank you so much ActionParsnip. :D  If i could transfer edible cookies through this, i totally would!
[08:15] <ImAlive> i new my compiz was messed up bad
[08:15] <MonthOLDpickle> So thats why ubuntu works
[08:15] <soreau> ImAlive: Ask in #compiz

[08:16] <Dr_Willis> Lubuntu worked decently well here for me when i tried it the other day
[08:16] <ImAlive> assigned
[08:17] <Dr_Willis> striker:  are you sure its a GDM 2 theme and not a gdm1 theme?
[08:17] <MonthOLDpickle> Dr. Willis what do you have?
[08:17] <happolati> Hi people. I have some problems connecting my display to my ubuntu 10.10 laptop thru HDMI. The screen is detected and shown in nvidia-settings. but the screen itself says it receives no signal. Works with VGA.
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> MonthOLDpickle:  have where/what/when?
[08:18] <Gryllida> !nvidia
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> !tab | MonthOLDpickle
[08:18] <striker> I don't know
[08:18] <ActionParsnip> striker: not sure gdm is themable much yet. You can certainly change the login box colour and the wallpaper
[08:18] <MonthOLDpickle> your system hardware you tried lubuntu on? Dr_Willis
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> striker:  very likely its a GDM 1 them. and wont work with the newer gdm2
[08:18] <Dr_Willis> MonthOLDpickle:   High end laptop. mid range desktop. nvidia systems.
[08:19] <MonthOLDpickle> Dr_Willis, my laptop is a netbook
[08:19] <MonthOLDpickle> Lubuntu runs awesome except for two glitches that annoy me
[08:19] <Dr_Willis> MonthOLDpickle:  lubuntu has a netbook interface alo i recall. should work find on a netbook
[08:19] <Dr_Willis> There is the #lubuntu channel also.
[08:19] <MonthOLDpickle> pass on the netbook lookin gui
[08:19] <MonthOLDpickle> I am in it
[08:19] <MonthOLDpickle> they just keep promoting lubuntu
[08:19] <ActionParsnip> MonthOLDpickle: find guides for the model, you may need the model=dell-3stack option for alsa
[08:20] <jmadero> hi all, my speakers on my Dell Mini just stopped working, headphones work fine, and speakers work in my other boot
[08:20] <jmadero> were working fine, then I went to my next song in Amarok and they just stopped, restart didn't fix it
[08:20] <ActionParsnip> jmadero: boot to the other side and check what options are used in the driver module
[08:20] <dagon666> where can I find a copy of GPL license ? I know that its somewhere in my ubuntu filesystem, dont remember where
[08:21] <striker> ok look this site please (http://gnome-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=150) beautiful login themes !
[08:21] <Dr_Willis> !gpl
[08:21] <ActionParsnip> dagon666: there are 2
[08:21] <jmadero> nvm, looks like this restart fixed it
[08:21] <happolati> Ok, so when i du lshw -C video i see this line _capabilities: pm msi pciexpress vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom_  It doesn't mention hdmi. But I do have HDMI port on my machine so does this mean that the linux version of the videocard driver doesn't support HDMI?
[08:21] <jmadero> thanks all
[08:21] <dagon666> ActionParsnip: what do you mean ?
[08:21] <JohnDoe_> hello
[08:21] <JohnDoe_> i need help
[08:22] <ActionParsnip> dagon666: I believe its version 2 and version 3
[08:22] <Gryllida> with?

[08:22] <JohnDoe_> trying to config qwebirc
[08:22] <JohnDoe_> on my server

[08:22] <ImAlive> ActionParsnip,  when i help launchpad and report all that text stuff from terminal its does not show any personal info does it
[08:22] <ActionParsnip> dagon666: not sure, there are copies online though
[08:22] <ImAlive> ?
[08:23] <ActionParsnip> ImAlive: noidea, I've not read any of it
[08:23] <dagon666> ActionParsnip: yeah, but I would like to find it locally anyway :)
[08:23] <ImAlive> lol
[08:23] <soreau> ImAlive: You need to remove that ppa ppb repos and reinstall compiz
[08:23] <ActionParsnip> ImAlive: how is that funny?
[08:23] <Gryllida> JohnDoe_: try #python ?
[08:23] <Gryllida> >.>
[08:23] <Gryllida> not sure
[08:23] <JohnDoe_> okay thanks
[08:23] <ImAlive> whos laffing?
[08:24] <ActionParsnip> ImAlive: "lol" == laugh out loud....

[08:24] <JohnDoe_> cant join the channel
[08:24] <ImAlive> im not laffing atg anything

[08:25] <ActionParsnip> dagon666: sweet, nice one dude
[08:26] <striker> Searching ... was discovered that changed the option to change GDM Themes from the ubuntu 4.10 version .... also discovered how to change login screen ... but do not install the downloaded packages of these sites. is there some way to unpack the tar.gz file and manually install themes ?????
[08:26] <ImAlive> anyhow, all let launchpad figure it out.
[08:26] <elky> ImAlive, avoid that n-word please.
[08:26] <ActionParsnip> shutyaev: cat /etc/resolv.conf ,will show your defined dns servers are if that's what you mean?
[08:26] <happolati> jesus
[08:26] <ImAlive> ghestopo
[08:27] <olivier> I can't print on a shared printer from another ubuntu pc unless a user is actually logged in on the server. How can I change this behaviour ?
[08:28] <Gnea> ImAlive: may I pm?
[08:29] <ImAlive> hey check this out, though i have the official maverick release, terminal reported, Distribution: Ubuntu maverick --------->(development branch)      "whats all that about" ?
[08:30] <jackie89> Welcome back, ActionParsnip!
[08:30] <ActionParsnip> Ty
[08:30] <ImAlive> goodness grashesh
[08:30] <jackie89> ... Are you going to sleep?
[08:30] <ActionParsnip> On a bus home so I have time :)
[08:30] <Gnea> ActionParsnip: nice
[08:30] <ActionParsnip> Then definately sleep
[08:30] <jackie89> Oh, I'm so happy!  I got confused when rebooting.
[08:31] <Gnea> ImAlive: may I pm?
[08:31] <ActionParsnip> jackie89: as soon as the system starts to power on(before anything loads) hold the shift key
[08:31] <ActionParsnip> Gnea: andchat ftw :)
[08:31] <jackie89> When I hit shift, it gave me two choices:  F2 for Set Up, F12 for boot options.  When I picked F2, It had 'main', 'advanced', 'security', 'boot', and 'exit' tabs.
[08:32] <Gnea> ActionParsnip: wish I could get that...my phone's been dumbed down so much in the past year ;(
[08:32] <ActionParsnip> jackie89: you don't press anything except shift
[08:32] <jackie89> And when i hit F12 it froze until i hit 'enter', then i couldn't move my mouse around
[08:32] <jackie89> But i didn't... i even waited but 'shift' acted like a freeze until it gave me those two options.
[08:32] <jackie89> Should i have just held shift until something came up?
[08:32] <ActionParsnip> Gnea: getting a desire next possibly. I like a qwerty kboard
[08:33] <ActionParsnip> jackie89: yes, let that stuff sit
[08:33] <jackie89> Ohhhhh, i see.
[08:33] <jackie89> Okay, retrying it then.  Thank you!
[08:33] <Gnea> ActionParsnip: I'd like a droid, but at this rate, by the time I can afford a new phone verizon will likely carry the iphone
[08:33] <olivier> Does someone know how to print on a shared printer without being logged in on the server ?
[08:33] <striker> Searching ... was discovered that changed the option to change GDM Themes from the ubuntu 4.10 version .... also discovered how to change login screen ... but do not install the downloaded packages of these sites. is there some way to unpack the tar.gz file and manually install themes ?????
[08:34] <ActionParsnip> Gnea: this guy is driving crazy fast. If I gotta jet then jackie89's hostname is different to the one in /etc/hosts and sudo fails etcetc
[08:34] <Gnea> olivier: yeah, setup samba to control sharing through cups
[08:35] <Gnea> ActionParsnip: oh man, that's crazy talk lol
[08:35] <ActionParsnip> Gnea: yep so off to root recovery :(
[08:35] <olivier> Gnea: I do not use windows pcs on my home network, it's pure cups printing. So far, I can't print unless someone is logged in on the server who shares the printer
[08:35] <nast> just so i got this right....an incorrect hosts entry can stop the OS from booting? :<
[08:35] <Dr_Willis> nast:  never noticed the issue..  It can cause other issues however..
[08:35] <ActionParsnip> nast: stops sudo working. It should still boot afaik
[08:36] <Gnea> olivier: then you clearly missed the point. it doesn't matter if there are any windows pc's or not.
[08:36] <striker> hi all thanks for nothing !
[08:36] <nast> ahh. thats curious [i'm a su kinda person]
[08:36]  * Gnea looks oddly at striker 
[08:36] <eric_> does anyone know of a way to incorporate the ubuntu folder sync in ubuntu 9.04 and 10.10 with a local server instead of ubuntu one?
[08:37] <ActionParsnip> nast: systems use loopback to talk to ports on the same system. If it uses "localhost" instead of the 127.0.0.1 IP, it will fail due to dns lookup
[08:37] <Dr_Willis> striker:  the old gdm themes dont work with the n ewer gdm. and as far as i know theres not many themes out for the gdm2 yet. you could installt he old gdm if you wanted to
[08:37] <ActionParsnip> striker: the login screen is visible for around 3 seconds. Why care so much?
[08:37] <olivier> Gnea: You mean, there's no way to do that without samba printer sharing ? cups can't enable printing without a user being logged in ?? sounds odd
[08:37] <Dr_Willis> striker:  theres other alternatives to GDM2 also you may want.
[08:38] <Dr_Willis> The change from gdm1 to gdm2 came about.. Hmm..  like a year ago? i think.
[08:38] <ActionParsnip> There's LDM which is themable (so I hear)
[08:38] <Dr_Willis> ldm works nicely.
[08:38] <striker> OK
[08:38] <Dr_Willis> then again most of the *dm tools work :)
[08:39] <Dr_Willis> xdm = about as ugly as one can get.
[08:39] <striker> THANKS GUYS !
[08:39] <ActionParsnip> Slim is nice too
[08:39] <Gnea> olivier: well, it could be done, in theory... http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/Networking/Setting_Up_a_Network_Printer_using_CUPS
[08:40] <Dr_Willis> there was that one '*dm' login that dident even use X.. qingly?
[08:40] <nast> if sudoers has ALL as the host in the field for that user, would it still need /etc/hosts or dns?
[08:40] <ActionParsnip> nast: yes as the processes still need to talk
[08:40] <greenmang0> is it possible to specify user's password on command line using sudo?
[08:40] <nast> what does sudo need to talk to?
[08:41] <Gnea> olivier: of course, there's also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingWithUbuntu
[08:41] <ActionParsnip> greenmang0: sure: sudo passwd foo ,change foo for the users name, you should tell them too so they don't lock their account trying to log in with the wrong pass
[08:42] <chalcedny> hugs ActionParsnip :)
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> nast: no idea but if the names are wrong, it doesn't work
[08:42] <_Techie_> im running an HTPC with ubuntu as the base OS, and i require the X11 cursor to automatically be placed in the top left corner, is there any software that can do this for me?
[08:42] <ActionParsnip> Hi chalcedony , not seem you in tiiiime
[08:42] <alessandro2> !list
[08:42] <nast> i would have thought it would getuid(), check /etc/sudoers, do hostname lookups if needed due to use of hostnames in file, then setuid ()and exec(), or something
[08:43] <Gnea> _Techie_: why not the bottom left or right corner?
[08:43] <greenmang0> ActionParsnip: no... that's not i am asking ... i don't want sudo to prompt for password... let's say i want to get root access .. i will fire "sudo su -" .. but this will prompt me for my password ... instead i want to specify passsword on command line only so that without prompting  for password i will get root access
[08:44] <raz_> is it better to install PAE on my 32bit ubuntu or install the 64bit edition, so i can have available all 8gb of ram?
[08:44] <Gnea> greenmang0: sudo -i would be better than sudo su
[08:44] <_Techie_> Gnea, its not to hide the cursor, its to allow me to use a Xterm without a window manage if i need to
[08:45] <_Techie_> Gnea, when i use xinit to load another X session with an Xterm, i cant input unless the pointer is ontop of the terminal
[08:45] <ActionParsnip> greenmang0: use: sudo -i ,and you will get a root console. Doingwhat you propose will severely reduce system security
[08:45] <greenmang0> Gnea: but it also prompts for a password
[08:45] <Dr_Willis> greenmang0:  putting the password in the command line can be a security risk. (i belive that other users mightbe able to see the command line/programs running  somehow) So  what you are wanting to do I think requires a bit of a work around.
[08:45] <ActionParsnip> raz_: pae can access 12gb ram. Depends on what the system will be used for
[08:45] <Gnea> _Techie_: actually, what you're asking for is for the xterm to keep the focus, not for the mouse cursor to be anywhere specific (yes, there is a difference)
[08:46] <greenmang0> Dr_Willis: I am not concerned about security at present.. the machine won't be online either
[08:46] <Gnea> greenmang0: of course it does
[08:46] <greenmang0> Gnea: i want to get rid of prompt
[08:46] <_Techie_> Gnea, either would work, just ive been manually shifting the pointer ontop of the term, so that s naturally what i asked
[08:46] <Dr_Willis> dosent matter if You are concerned with security or not. :) its what the designers of the os/programs were concerned with.
[08:46] <alessandro2> http://xdccing.com/
[08:46] <ActionParsnip> greenmang0: think about it, root can access EVERYTHING so it can access storedpasswordsin ALL the browsers and shares you map and affect those easily asitis unrestricted
[08:47] <raz_> Actiontrip: is is my home pc, i just wanted to know which option is better
[08:47] <vovk1988_home> hi everyone, who can help me restoring my 10.10 ubuntu? it doesnt load anymore ((
[08:47] <greenmang0> ActionParsnip: i am not concerned about security ...
[08:47] <_Techie_> greenmang0, if you wish to remove the password prompt, edit the line in /etc/sudoers to look like this, %admin ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL
[08:47] <ActionParsnip> greenmang0: as well as read, send and delete your email if you store it locally
[08:48] <raz_> Actionparnsnip: is is my home pc, i just wanted to know which option is better
[08:48] <Gnea> _Techie_: understandable, and I've actually ran that scenario before but didn't care bout the mouse because it's always there, so perhaps there's an .Xclients setting for xterm  to gain the focus...
[08:48] <greenmang0> _Techie_: but that will make changes system wide... i just want to use this feature in bash script...
[08:48] <Gnea> eventually I just wrote my own xsession :)
[08:49] <ActionParsnip> raz_: if you intend to encode audio and video then 64bit will help. If you have a lexmark printer then 32bit will allow you to use it due to half ass support
[08:49] <_Techie_> greenmang0, then you could have the script run as an isolated user
[08:49] <alessandro2> http://xdccing.com/
[08:49] <ActionParsnip> greenmang0: you can use sudo to run bash scripts
[08:49] <Gnea> greenmang0: are you trying to run a different window manager with the xterm, or do you prefer it as a launch point?
[08:49] <Quan-Time_> can i downgrade from 10.10 to 10.04 x64 ?
[08:49] <Quan-Time_> this wifi issue is killing me..
[08:49] <Gnea> er
[08:49] <Gnea> _Techie_: sorry, that was for you
[08:49] <ActionParsnip> Quan-Time_: you must clean install
[08:49] <Gnea> greenmang0: mis-type
[08:50] <greenmang0> Gnea: errr :)
[08:50] <Gnea> :)
[08:50] <ActionParsnip> Quan-Time_: you can only limb up, not down
[08:50] <Gnea> yeah, I messed up lol sorry
[08:50] <Quan-Time_> ActionParsnip: seriously ? thats hugely gay.. thus, i dont really wanna do it now :(
[08:50] <ActionParsnip> Climb*
[08:50] <tedge> greenmang0: http://maestric.com/doc/unix/ubuntu_sudo_without_password
[08:50] <cypo> I'd like to output the same stereo signal to front and rear line out. How could I do that?
[08:50] <ActionParsnip> Quan-Time_: how is a piece of software homosexual?
[08:51] <_Techie_> Gnea, no window manager at all, if i require a graphical web browser, i use xinit -- :1 and start firefox
[08:51] <ActionParsnip> Quan-Time_: and when something is good is it bi or straight?
[08:51] <Gnea> Quan-Time_: in the unix world, there are certain procedures that must be followed, even if they are shortcutted. it's hardly lame, it's how things ought to be.
[08:51] <`3Shades> Dr_Willis, Thanks
[08:51] <sgo11> hi, how to stop aria2c properly? can I simply Ctrl+C to stop the download process?
[08:51] <`3Shades> Got it done ..
[08:52] <frostbyte> I'm having an issue with my menus,since I installed cairo-dock, sometimes they dont show up at all, i have to hover over them twice, any ideas?
[08:52] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  :) took all this time?
[08:52] <mk0> cannot find in ggole how can i change resolution and _frequency_ in ubuntu which not listed in system->preferences->monitor? i wanted to edit xorg.conf as always, but it doesn't exist. how is X managed in 10.04?
[08:53] <mk0> ggole=google
[08:53] <olivier> Gnea: ok got it working thank you bye*
[08:53] <Dr_Willis> mk0:  whats your video chipset?
[08:53] <`3Shades> Dr_Willis, it kept saying file exist took me a while to realize I had to delete the directory, and it wouldn't let me do it until I did it as room not even sudo.. for some reason
[08:53] <raz_> ActionParsnip: thanks, i┬┤ll check my hardware compatibility first, since it will do nothing more than a regular user does, webserfing, music/video playback and office work
[08:53] <mk0> GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a
[08:53] <ActionParsnip> Quan-Time_: did you see my question?
[08:53] <Dr_Willis> mk0:  You installed the nvidia drivers and ran the nvidia-settings tool?
[08:54] <`3Shades> Dr_Willis, after a mv it still kept /home/username
[08:54] <mk0> nono i cannot use proprietary
[08:54] <Gnea> olivier: cheers
[08:54] <Dr_Willis> mk0:  no idea then. I use the nvidia drivers here on my 3 nvidia machines
[08:54] <Quan-Time_> ActionParsnip: yup, no point answering.. you are looking for an arguement
[08:55] <mk0> i even do not know which driver is now used.
[08:55] <greenmang0> Dr_Willis: when i use "-S" option of sudo it tell me "stdin: is not a tty"
[08:55] <ActionParsnip> Quan-Time_: no just using "gay" as a term of inadequecy is not only pathetic and ignorant, its offensive to homosexuals
[08:55] <`3Shades> Dr_Willis, and I had a buch of files it wouldn't "move" so I copied them instead with sudo then I had to remove the tricode directory as root sudo wouldn't even do it ... really weird then I could finally make the link.. heh.. not to mention the time it took to transfer 15GB lol now I'm working on the virtualboxes.. heh
[08:56] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  you may need to check the permissions/ownership of the files perhaps.
[08:56] <ActionParsnip> Quan-Time_: I suggest you review yourvocab, there arethousands ofwords toexpressdissatisfaction
[08:56] <`3Shades> if I broke something I'll figure it out later
[08:57] <Quan-Time_> hahrarha !!! sprout crap and not even do it well.. awesome. then LEAVE. anyawy. on that note,, im out too
[08:57] <vm> ./nicklist.pl
[08:58] <vm> sorry, ignore that
[08:58]  * `3Shades has been using linux for years, yet this is my first symbolic link I've made by hand lol 
[08:58] <linux_probe> o_O
[08:58] <linux_probe> ln -s oh my
[08:58] <linux_probe> >_>
[08:59] <nast> hardlinks are surprisingly useful :>
[08:59] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  the gnome file manager can make them also.. but io forget the key combo.
[09:00] <dagon666> nast: whats the differences between symbolic and hardlink ? I dont think I ever made a "hard" link
[09:00] <Dr_Willis> hard link is identical to the file name originally,
[09:01] <Dr_Willis> You cant tell any differance btween the original and the 'link'
[09:01] <dagon666> Dr_Willis: is it "copy" equivalent ?
[09:02] <Dr_Willis> dagon666:  no.
[09:02] <jackie89> Hi again. :]
[09:02] <Dr_Willis> dagon666:  it IS the same file...  its not a copy
[09:02] <Dr_Willis> exact same data on the disk.. same sector/location/whatever.. just has 2 filenames in differnet parts of the file tree.
[09:02] <tedge> greenmang0: echo "<password>" | sudo -S <command>
[09:03] <dagon666> whats the purpose ? arent symbolic links enough ?
[09:03] <jackie89> Darn, he did leave. :[  Okay, i'm having issues with rebooting, which either means that i'm missing something or something just isn't right within my computer... Probably the former of my assumptions.  I restarted and kept holding shift even before anything loaded and kept that key pressed for fifteen minutes... Nothing happened.
[09:03] <`3Shades> Dr_Willis, note made
[09:03] <Dr_Willis> dagon666:  symbolic links are not the same.. they are 'shortcuts' to a file..
[09:03] <Dr_Willis> dagon666:  hard links are the same file.. theres no way to tell its a shortcut.. because its not.
[09:03] <`3Shades> isn't a hard link the same as mounting something basically
[09:04] <Dr_Willis> `3Shades:  No...
[09:04] <Dr_Willis> a 'hardlink' is a differnt name for the same file. its a filesystem feature.
[09:04] <`3Shades> GOtcha
[09:04]  * Dr_Willis is rembering his old old old using linux/linux kernel book.
[09:04] <dagon666> Dr_Willis: I understant that if I remove a hardlink it will remove a file or only a hardlink to it ?
[09:04] <nickhtp> Men, don't be using those symbolic link shiznits, IMHO. Go try actively mounting with vmware or nfs.
[09:04] <Dr_Willis> dagon666:  a file is only removed after ALL 'hardlinks' to it are removed.
[09:05] <dagon666> Dr_Willis: ok, I understand now
[09:05] <nast> i'm a bit fuzzy on hardlinks, so there's still only one inode for said file? if so where are the permissions data for the second link stored?
[09:05] <`3Shades> don't mention books to me right now .. the US postal service decided to loose about 250$ worth of my books in the mail. the lady even said, they are just books probably don't need to insure them..
[09:05] <Dr_Willis> I recall thios from some Lnux book i had ages ago that hammered this home. :) the author thought it was critical to know.
[09:06] <jackie89> If anybody could help me with my problem, i'd be more than appreciative... If not, i understand.  Is there anybody available who would be able to help me?
[09:06] <Dr_Willis> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_link
[09:06] <greenmang0> tedge: thanks!!!
[09:07] <`3Shades> The box made it but the books were gone ... and the box looks like they freak'n fork lift went right through it, so I figure the guy messed up the books and threw them away just to cover his ass.
[09:07] <greenmang0> tedge: actually after -S i was trying "su -" this command and it was giving me "stdin: is not a tty" error
[09:07] <jackie89> Or is there maybe a channel for newbies who really don't know what they're doing?
[09:07] <greenmang0> tedge: but i tried some other command and it worked
[09:07] <CountDuckula> hard/soft links here too --> http://linuxgazette.net/105/pitcher.html
[09:08] <Dr_Willis> jackie89:  you may want to start from thebeginning for the channel. with what your original problem is.
[09:08] <`3Shades> jackie89, I'm sure there are a few in here that know what they are doing, just ask your question and someone should get to you if your nice :)
[09:09] <nast> i think they were up to trying to get their /etc/hostname file consistent with /etc/hosts
[09:09] <jackie89> Oh, thank you!  I'll do that.
[09:09] <`3Shades> I still want the option built into apt-get and the synaptic to be able to redirect your installs... that would be nice.
[09:10] <arvut> !anyone | jackie89
[09:10] <`3Shades> have it do an auto symbolic link...
[09:10] <arvut> =)
[09:10] <tedge> greenmang0: glad you got it to work! use it carefully :)
[09:10] <jackie89> I want to set up my wireless connection but my computer doesn't seem to recognize itself, so I was recommended to reboot and select recovery mode, but when i did that i held 'shift' for fifteen minutes and the option to select recovery mode never showed up.
[09:11] <greenmang0> tedge: yeah :)
[09:11] <jackie89> Does anybody know what to do in that situation?
[09:11] <nast> did you really hold shift for 15 minutes?
[09:11] <nast> just curious, seems a long time. do you have a livecd handy?
[09:11] <nickhtp> oh that
[09:11] <arvut> 15 mins sounds abit extreme. what exactly is wrong with your wifi?
[09:12] <nickhtp> who's running that
[09:12] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, what do you mean the computer doesn't recognise itself, do you mean its not just the wifi that isn't working there are other issues?
[09:12] <jackie89> What's a livecd, nast?  And yes, i did. @.@  I got really handy in turning pages with my chin though, since i pressed both 'shifts'
[09:12] <jackie89> psycho_oreos - i think there are other issues.  The filename doesn't match up with something else... This is what i was told, anyway.
[09:13] <nast> jackie89: can you tell us what grep localhost /etc/hosts says, and what cat /etc/hostname says :)
[09:13] <arvut> why would you press shift in the first place?
[09:13] <lucent> could not find the any key
[09:13] <myschak> reporting bug: when I try to use midnight commander mc it won't work because of "TERM environment variable needs set." Any tips? /cheers
[09:13] <arvut> nast: I think that might be abit extreme
[09:13]  * `3Shades thinks jackie89 was talking to someone that knew something about windows.. 
[09:14] <nibbler_> hi. i just installed a new 10.10 on my netbook. first it offered me two options for proprietary drivers for the wireless. i chose one, and this does not work. now i dont get the otherone offered anymore (broadcom STA vs broadcom b43(?)) - any hints?
[09:14] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, hmm for starters, dmesg output into pastebin (do not paste here) would be very handy
[09:14] <jackie89> nast:  I'm so sorry, i can't understand your question... What's a grep?  And when i typed in cat /etc/hostname it said "Jaclyn"
[09:14] <lucent> nibbler_: no clue about that
[09:14] <arvut> F8 is the key you hold down to get the startup menu when booting windows
[09:14] <arvut> !safemode
[09:14] <arvut> hmm
[09:14] <arvut> !failsafe
[09:14] <lucent> nibbler_: is it available via System | Administration | Additional Drivers ?
[09:15] <jackie89> psycho_oreos:  dmesg output?
[09:15] <nast> jackie89: and when you type 'grep -i jaclyn /etc/hosts'?
[09:15] <nickhtp> jackie89: quirky, eh
[09:15] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, yes `dmesg' is a program that you type in console. You copy and paste the entire output into pastebin and send me the pastebinned link
[09:15] <jackie89> 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain ume jaclyn.ph.cox.net
[09:15] <nibbler_> lucent, nope. that where it was available in the beginning, but is no more :(
[09:15] <arvut> nast: he is a newbie to ubuntu. giving him commandline instructions might not be the best.
[09:16] <jackie89> 192.168.1.110 jaclyn.ph.cox.net
[09:16] <arvut> altho, it is one way to learn =)
[09:16] <nast> arvut: presuming they can copy and paste, or transcribe without screwing up, seems a good idea
[09:16] <nast> arvut: the alternative is nasty
[09:16] <jackie89> psycho_oreos:  I'm not sure i have that program.  @.@
[09:16] <arvut> nast: seems to work =)
[09:17] <psycho_oreos> plus the command line tools are more prompt and direct rather than clicking this, clicking that, etc etc.. takes forever to get around sometimes
[09:17] <nast> arvut: if your buffer extends far enough backwards, ActionParsnip was helping jackie89 fix its hostname setup
[09:17]  * `3Shades gets helped a lot and prefers command line help over gui help and I'm a gui person.. 
[09:17] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, sure you do, at the command prompt (where you type grep -i jaclyn.ph.cox.net /etc/hosts as per before) you type in dmesg
[09:18] <nibbler_> lucent, what is even more disturbing, the additional drivers say that the broadcom-sta driver is used, but aptitude says:  p   broadcom-sta-common - maybe ill try manually install this
[09:18] <jackie89> psycho_oreos - Before or after i type in the grep-etc?
[09:18] <cortex1> hi
[09:19] <cortex1> does someone now how i can make irssi  run a shell command when starting up ?
[09:19] <`3Shades> Dr_Willis, again thanks.. I'm outta here.. for real this time if I already said that...
[09:19] <nibbler_> lucent, generaly i guess i can find both drivers in the apt repro, so i'll try there.
[09:19] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, it doesn't matter when, you can do it now (which is after grep -i) as long as you get a prompt (where you get a solid white block cursor or a blinking one)
[09:19] <nast> 02:04 < jackie89> sudo: unable to resolve host jaclyn
[09:19] <nast> ^key line :)
[09:19] <lucent> nibbler_: good luck with failcom :/
[09:19] <jackie89> 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain ume jaclyn.ph.cox.net
[09:19] <jackie89> 192.168.1.110 jaclyn.ph.cox.net
[09:19] <jackie89> Like that?
[09:20] <nast> i believe the plan was to get sudo working via editing /etc/hosts, then worry about wifi
[09:20] <jackie89> i did '/dmesg' at the beginning
[09:20] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, no no.. that's not from dmesg.. but before you do that again.. make sure you use pastebin.. do not.. I must repeat.. do not paste it in here or you'll get silenced
[09:20] <nast> hence the rebooting the host, and holding down shift to get into some kind of ubuntu recovery mode
[09:21] <jackie89> psycho_oreos - What's pastebin?  And thank you for being so patient with me.
[09:21] <nickhtp> Attention l-users: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-route-add/
[09:21] <psycho_oreos> !pastebin | jackie89
[09:21] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, no worries
[09:21] <jackie89> Ohhh
[09:22] <jackie89> Thank you so much. :]
[09:22]  * nast waits till we get to the fixing sudo part
[09:22] <psycho_oreos> hmm one should be able to do /etc/init.d/networking restart and that'll reload /etc/hosts? I might be old fashioned, I think ubuntu these days prefer services networking restart or something
[09:22] <Guest70200> hello world
[09:22] <nast> psycho_oreos: how would you edit /etc/hosts?
[09:22] <nickhtp> Yea, l-user. ``Like this?'' *neckbench* ``Yea, that's it..!'' --Spaceballs
[09:22] <Dr_Willis> i dotn recall ever needing to 'reload' hosts. You edit it.. and its used...
[09:22] <SuperPatate> #Francais01
[09:22] <psycho_oreos> nast, I dunno I'm old school, I just go sudo vim /etc/hosts
[09:23] <lucent> psycho_oreos: sudo service networking restart
[09:23] <CountDuckula> for copying log files dont forget the log file vier in Administration menu
[09:23] <psycho_oreos> ahh I could be wrong then.. I thought sometimes the hosts file doesn't get reloaded in a prompt manner
[09:23] <nast> psycho_oreos: presumably you noticed why we can't use sudo for that :)
[09:23] <lucent> list available from 'service --status-all 2>&1 | grep net'
[09:23] <nickhtp> linux route add, linux route add -- and done.
[09:23] <psycho_oreos> lucent, *nods* I kept forgetting sudo
[09:23] <jackie89> Okay, I'm at the pastebin place
[09:23] <jackie89> What's next?
[09:24] <lucent> psycho_oreos: hosts file is read from to feed 'hostname' command, but only affects new sessions I think
[09:24] <psycho_oreos> nast, ahh ouch well yeah one will need to enable linux rescue mode.. by appending 1 or into grub's conf file or grub2's menu thingy
[09:24] <ja660k> hey all, is there any program more advanced then time time command
[09:24] <psycho_oreos> lucent, yeah that's what I thought though if one restarted networking it may force the reload on the logged in user's session
[09:24] <lucent> psycho_oreos: there's rescue mode entries as part of an Ubuntu install
[09:25] <lucent> golly, you are old school linux'er
[09:25]  * lucent :P
[09:25] <Dr_Willis>  init=/bin/bash  :)
[09:25] <psycho_oreos> lucent, yup in the old grub I recall there's the recovery mode
[09:25] <psycho_oreos> don't forget root= :D
[09:25] <psycho_oreos> mount && chroot.. etc
[09:25] <lucent> oh-gee.  "Old Grub"  these kids today, don't know PRUB from a hole in the wall
[09:25] <comofyu> what's the differences between 10.04 and 10.10
[09:26] <lucent> comofyu: 0.06
[09:26] <psycho_oreos> comofyu, I'd check the changelog file
[09:26] <nast> if we do get jackie89 to boot into a shell, we're going to have to get them to identify and mount the right partition somehow to edit the hosts file :<
[09:26] <Dr_Willis> comofyu:  everythings updated...  many of the linux.ubuntu news web sites give 'whats new...' type articals
[09:26] <nast> or LV, if they're using LVM
[09:26] <comofyu> lucent:great
[09:26] <lucent> comofyu: anytime
[09:26] <Dulak> remember lilo and the 1024 cylinder limit?
[09:26] <psycho_oreos> nast, well getting a copy of fdisk -l along with cat /etc/fstab would be handy
[09:26] <psycho_oreos> lol old lilo
[09:26]  * jackie89 listens quietly
[09:27] <lucent> I remember CHS
[09:27] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, did you pastebin the output of dmesg?
[09:27] <Dulak> you are old
[09:27] <comofyu> ok, but which do you like better?
[09:27] <jessy90> hello
[09:27] <Dr_Willis> comofyu:  newer is always better right?
[09:27] <lucent> LBA was like, "whuaaa?"
[09:27] <lucent> over 9000.
[09:27] <psycho_oreos> ahh CHS I didn't remember much of that.. I remember alsaconf really messed me up a lot
[09:27] <jackie89> http://paste.ubuntu.com/514884/
[09:27] <Dr_Willis> comofyu:  if you want LST - stick with the 10.04 . if that doxent matter.. try 10.10
[09:27] <jackie89> Like that?
[09:27] <comofyu> Dr_Willis:but i dont think so
[09:28] <lucent> good job jackie89
[09:28]  * psycho_oreos checks jackie89's link
[09:28] <jackie89> Yay!  Thank you. :D
[09:28] <jessy90> Since upgrading to Ubuntu 10.4 and 10.10, my mouse no longer
[09:28] <jessy90> the mouse and keyboard are connected to a receiver connected via a USB port
[09:28] <jessy90> the receiver LED lights up on mouse, mouse wheel and right-
[09:28] <jessy90> mouse works, but the cursor is stationary white
[09:28] <jessy90> Is there a solution?
[09:28] <FloodBot3> jessy90: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:28] <Dulak> lucent: what was your first kernel?
[09:28] <CountDuckula> comofyu: 10.10 is 6 months worse than 10.04 and 6 months better than 11.04
[09:28] <psycho_oreos> ok that was only for grep -i heh
[09:28] <lucent> Dulak: hurts to think about, some early release of slackware
[09:28] <comofyu> I like the editions less than 10.04
[09:28] <comofyu> better
[09:29] <psycho_oreos> comofyu, http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=ubuntu <--- scroll down to the massive table where it mentions the distro release versions and their codenames
[09:29] <Dulak> lucent: slack 2!
[09:29] <Dr_Willis> Minix !
[09:29] <psycho_oreos> slack 2? well beyond my era, I started linux back in rh8 days
[09:29] <jessy90> Since upgrading to Ubuntu 10.4 and 10.10, my mouse no longer the mouse and keyboard are connected to a receiver connected via a USB port the receiver LED lights up on mouse, mouse wheel and right- mouse works, but the cursor is stationary white.Is there a solution?
[09:29] <lucent> psycho_oreos: you are lucky to have glossed over RH6.0
[09:29] <jackie89> psycho_oreos:  What else should i type into the terminal?
[09:29] <lucent> worst distro I've ever run, bar none.
[09:29] <Dr_Willis> jessy90:  as a test. Unplug/plug the thing back in?
[09:29] <nast> jackie89: alright, what does "egrep '\W/\W' /etc/fstab" say
[09:30] <CountDuckula> 10.10 is slightly better than Linux From Scratch
[09:30] <psycho_oreos> lucent, not really, rh8 was the worst actually, rpmdb woes..one has to constantly kill the hung rpm and reload the database
[09:30] <Dulak> lucent: rh 5 was good but they sure did mess up with 6+
[09:30] <lucent> Dulak knows what he/she's talking about
[09:30] <psycho_oreos> I heard rh7.2 and rh7.3 were really good
[09:30]  * lucent ;)
[09:30] <jackie89> psycho_oreos:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/514887/
[09:30] <entel> anyone know what package  i need to install sun java6 in maverick meerkat
[09:30] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, "dmesg" without quotes
[09:31] <comofyu> yeah, maybe 10.10 suits better for drag and drop
[09:31] <Dr_Willis> !java | entel
[09:31] <jessy90> Dr_Willis,   already tried
[09:31] <entel> cant seem to fun sun-java6-jre in apt
[09:31] <Dr_Willis> entel:  its in the parteters repo.
[09:31] <Dulak> entel: enable the partner repo
[09:31] <entel> ah
[09:31] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, err ok, but why egrep all that jazz? heh nevertheless "dmesg" output (without quotes) would be really handy for me
[09:31]  * jackie89 blinks
[09:31] <entel> how do i do that
[09:31] <CountDuckula> entel: ubuntu-restricted-extras will pick up java, flash and codecs if u need it all in one
[09:31] <lucent> jackie89: hey what's the issue o'er there ?
[09:32] <Dr_Willis> I noticed if i checked the  'enable 3rd party repos' and 'download updates' that somehow isntalled java and flash automatically for me.
[09:32] <jackie89> i'm so sorry, you lost me... I copied the thing you posted out, do i put the 'dmesg' in the terminal?
[09:32] <Dulak> CountDuckula: it's openjdk, not sunjre which is what he wants
[09:32] <frostbyte> 10.10 ftl? gnome menu's randomly decide if they want to appear onclick/hover
[09:32] <CountDuckula> ah missed that!
[09:33] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, yes and make sure you paste the output in full into pastebin
[09:33] <jackie89> Okay, psycho_oreos, thank you for explaining.
[09:33] <hobomo> can someone help me with a simple xterm problem?
[09:33] <gnugr> anyone knows if Btrfs-tools works fine on Ubuntu?
[09:33] <psycho_oreos> lucent, I suppose that'll come in handy when we guide jackie89 to recovery mode for sudoers
[09:33] <psycho_oreos> !ask | hobomo
[09:34] <lucent> psycho_oreos: sounds like the long way around
[09:34] <psycho_oreos> lucent, in case if we get stuck in a bind :)
[09:34] <lucent> psycho_oreos: only person going to be stuck is jackie89
[09:34]  * lucent facepalms
[09:34] <psycho_oreos> i.e. stuck inside busybox
[09:35] <psycho_oreos> lucent, then again one has to guide jackie89 out of that and get sudoer's file sorted, get hostname sorted, etc etc
[09:35] <jackie89> psycho_oreos: http://paste.ubuntu.com/514889/
[09:35] <Dr_Willis> gnugr:  i was thinking btrfs was to be a feature in 10.10. but its not the default FS.
[09:35] <hobomo> ubottu: ok thanks. my xterm opens in the root folder by default. anyone know a permanent solution to make it open in the home folder (i.e. some option to add in .Xresources)?
[09:35] <lolcat93> Hello
[09:35] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, no no just type "dmesg". don't append anything to the back of that command
[09:35] <lolcat93> Can I install ubuntu on a 1GB pendrive?
[09:35] <jackie89> Ohhh, i see!
[09:36] <Dr_Willis> lolcat93:  you can make a bootable flash drive with 1gb. but   thats about it.
[09:36] <jackie89> Thank you again, psycho_oreos. @.@
[09:36] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, nw
[09:36] <Dr_Willis> lolcat93:  unetbootin or other tools under windows can do that. Or the  boot disk creator tool in ubuntu
[09:36] <comofyu> Has anyone made ramdisk for davinci platform?
[09:36] <lucent> new users are cute when they learn things and stuff
[09:36] <lolcat93> Dr_Willis: I need to install a laptop for my gf to use
[09:36] <Dulak> lolcat93: you can but a lighter distro would give you more in less space.  You'd have to trim a lot out of ubuntu to fit on 1g
[09:36] <Dr_Willis> lolcat93:  you can make a bootable flash drive with 1gb.  Yes
[09:36] <lolcat93> Dr_Willis: But I am out of cds, so I can't burn one... And I need to install it
[09:36] <lucent> lolcat93: so, macbook?
[09:36] <CountDuckula> unetbootin has a problem with 10.10 i think due to newer kernel
[09:36] <Dr_Willis> lolcat93:  you can install from that..
[09:37] <jackie89> http://paste.ubuntu.com/514890/ - psycho_oreos
[09:37] <hobomo> my xterm opens in the root folder by default. anyone know a permanent solution to make it open in the home folder (i.e. some option to add in .Xresources)?
[09:37] <psycho_oreos> hobomo, afaik its handled by ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_config but its a nasty hack imo.. normally it should start in logged in user's home directory.. there might be something wrong inside /etc/passwd file
[09:37] <lucent> CountDuckula: the syslinux is a mess on 10.x Ubuntu release ISOs
[09:37] <Dr_Willis> hobomo:  it depends on where its gettting started at i belive.. how are you launching it?
[09:37] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, that's more like it :)
[09:38] <lolcat93> I can't find the bootable usb thing
[09:38] <jackie89> Yay!  I succeeded!  Three times the charm?
[09:38] <lucent> CountDuckula: utter disaster. I looked into it, the issues stem from a hacked copy of syslinux distributed with Ubuntu-specific graphical menu patches, and then reverting to the official graphical menu system
[09:38] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, not quite but :)
[09:38] <Dr_Willis> lolcat93:  for what OS ? windows? linux? its under the admin menu on a ubuntu setup
[09:38] <lucent> CountDuckula: result = nothing !@#$ works
[09:38] <hobomo> Dr_Willis: i launch it with a keyboard shortcut that is set to run the command 'xterm'
[09:38]  * jackie89 smiles sheepishly
[09:38] <CountDuckula> lucent: yeah i can do Arch, Debian etc but Ubuntu:(
[09:38] <lolcat93> Ubuntu
[09:38] <Dr_Willis> hobomo:  that is weird.. just 'xterm' in a terminal dosent do that does it?
[09:39] <Dulak> lolcat93: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[09:39] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, humm you might want to now pastebin your "mount" output and I think we're ready to get you working with sudoers thingy
[09:39] <Dr_Willis> hobomo:  how did you make this keyboard shortcut?
[09:39] <lucent> CountDuckula: if you can get to a syslinux prompt, I think there's something you can type to get it going anyways
[09:39] <jackie89> psycho_oreos:  Will do.
[09:39] <hobomo> Dr_Willis: launching 'xterm' in gnome terminal opens it in the home folder, but i think thats because gnome terminal itself opens in home folder
[09:40] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, do you have another computer to work with or is this your only one?
[09:40] <hobomo> Dr_Willis: i used the keyboard shortcuts gui to set it up
[09:40] <jackie89> http://paste.ubuntu.com/514892/
[09:40] <lolcat93> Bah, the usb pendrive was only 512 mb...
[09:40] <jackie89> I can get another one, psycho_oreos, but it can't access mIRC
[09:40] <lucent> jackie89: words of encouragement for you, none of us has any idea what hundreds of commands actually do, we pick maybe 30-40 out of the bunch and use those to do what we need done
[09:41] <lucent> so it's kind of a matter of style and not always a right or wrong way
[09:41] <Dr_Willis> hobomo:  its opening in my users home dir here it seems..
[09:41] <jackie89> lucent:  You're a doll, thank you for lifting my spirits back up. :]  I feel like a kindergartener in a classroom of 6th graders right about now.
[09:41] <lucent> if someone is helping you and it is overwhelming all the new information, it's just as overwhelming for anyone else
[09:41] <Dr_Willis> hobomo:  on wait. its in / :)
[09:41] <Dr_Willis> hobomo:  make a script  called 'start-xterm' that does a cd, then starts xterm perhaps..
[09:41] <psycho_oreos> I agree with what lucent said, there's no one way to go about doing things. We all have learnt different ways
[09:41] <lucent> I'm sitting here thinking "wow, you can do it like THAT?  neat.  different command than I usually use but okay anyways"
[09:42] <jackie89> Lol!
[09:42] <Dr_Willis> I notice the fonts are still messed up for me with Xterm. on 10.10
[09:42] <lucent> the thing about grep and '\W' made me search Google to find out what that even does
[09:42] <jackie89> Sometimes i do that with cooking... I saw the weirdest way to cut avacado the other day.
[09:42] <the_lord> #ubuntu-it
[09:42] <frostbyte> i wish i could remove the animation from UI
[09:42] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, you said the other computer can't use mirc.. that's strange and it'll be awkward.. are you able to fix that up so you can communicate to us what is going on and maybe we can give you a more direct feedback?
[09:43] <hobomo> Dr_Willis: i was doing that previously but then when i setup more sophisticated xterm aliases, it fouls things up
[09:43] <jackie89> I can try, psycho_oreos, will you give me a minute or two, though?
[09:43] <psycho_oreos> lol I didn't know what \W meant.. I suppose its anything after the the initial slash
[09:43] <bytesaber> Can't seem to figure out the offical place where to keep the iptables-save
[09:43] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, yup
[09:43] <jackie89> Thank you!  Brb
[09:43] <bytesaber> also haven't found an iptables servic in /etc/init.d    can someone explain?
[09:43] <Dr_Willis> hobomo:  it does it with gnome-terminal also it seems.
[09:43] <lucent> bytesaber: Uncomplicated FireWall (ufw)
[09:44] <hobomo> Dr_Willis: my gnome terminal opens in home
[09:44] <lucent> bytesaber: also have a look-see at the output of 'service --status-all'
[09:44] <Dr_Willis> hobomo:  that is weirder still. :) could be a loginshell vs non login shell issue.
[09:45] <bytesaber> lucent, i've already written my rules.   i sometimes need to write a few oddball firewalls for some various purposes.  just new to ubuntu
[09:45] <waterbourne> is it possible to sync android phones with ubuntu without going through gmail/google?
[09:45] <lucent> I will fix this kernel, until it is broken.
[09:45] <Dr_Willis> hobomo:  doing a google search fines --> http://linuxexchange.org/questions/855/gnome-terminalkeyboard-shortcut-launches-terminal-with-directory-default
[09:45] <bytesaber> lucent, ok
[09:45] <lucent> bytesaber: ubuntu uses an init system named 'upstart' if you need to run something then better luck trying to search for upstart and iptables to find out how to do this
[09:46] <syareez> hye
[09:46] <syareez> can i join?
[09:46] <lolcat93> Is there a faster way to figure out if I have a harddrive than GParted?
[09:46] <bytesaber> lucent, i come from a mandriva/centos experience.   trying out ubuntu.     normally i just place iptables-save's output in /etc/sysconfig/iptables.   and run the service called /etc/init.d/iptable to start or stop or restart whateve i store in the file.   How does ubuntu do it?
[09:47] <psycho_oreos> lolcat93, you can use `sudo fdisk -l'
[09:47] <Dr_Willis> hobomo:  gnome-terminal has a working-directory option. aparenetly xterm dosent  - but this  can work -->    xterm -hold -e "cd $HOME/documents && /bin/bash" &
[09:47] <lucent> bytesaber: I don't know
[09:47] <lolcat93> psycho_oreos: It returned nothing
[09:47] <lucent> bytesaber: Ubuntu uses 'upstart' others use sysvinit
[09:48] <lucent> it's going to be different
[09:48] <bytesaber> lucent, well that's odd.  there's gotta be a distro "norm" location for saving a iptables-save to wherever it wants it for when you reboot
[09:48] <nast> bytesaber: debian used to have a iptables-save, but it was discouraged, and people should use shorewall or other such things
[09:48] <lucent> if there is I don't know about it and you're going to have just as much luck searching Google as I will :)
[09:48] <psycho_oreos> lolcat93, that's weird, normally it should prompt for your login's passwd and then from root access print out the contents of `fdisk -l'.. hmm another issue might be /dev not mounted or missing.. check mount
[09:48] <bytesaber> nast, shorewall's justa  front end to iptables   iptables is kernel
[09:49] <nast> bytesaber: iptables is just a frontend to netfilter
[09:49] <bytesaber> i find it odd that i can't even google what to do.  it's all "opinion" and such on fourms.  really weird
[09:49]  * nast conjecturing
[09:49] <lolcat93> psycho_oreos: Livecd
[09:49] <lolcat93> Also the installer cant find the drive
[09:49] <lolcat93> dammit
[09:49] <pksadiq> ljl here?
[09:49] <bytesaber> nast well i don't know how else youc an get more specific as there is no netfilter manipulation other than catting stuff into /proc
[09:49] <psycho_oreos> lolcat93, still even at that the output should be visible.. it might be a controller issue or hard disk issue
[09:50] <hobomo> Dr_Willis: ill try it
[09:50] <android_user> Hi, I'm trying to use the wubi installer to install Ubuntu from Windows and I get this error: http://www.2shared.com/photo/Z3fQPPAA/screenshot.html  Any suggestions please?
[09:50] <lolcat93> psycho_oreos: I expect the drive is dead
[09:50] <songhui> Õż¦Õ«ČÕźĮ
[09:50] <lolcat93> Hope they are cheap...
[09:50] <bytesaber> so anyhow, where is THE place to put your iptables rules for your box?
[09:50] <psycho_oreos> lolcat93, heh that might be it.. check dmesg output as that may give you information on what errors is the hard disk probing spewing up errors as
[09:51] <psycho_oreos> lolcat93, depends on how big the capacity, etc
[09:51] <jackie89> Hi again. :]
[09:51] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, looks like you have mirc working on the other machine :) nice
[09:51] <jackie89> Yup!  :D
[09:51] <jackie189> Should I exit out of this computer?
[09:52] <Jordan_U> !cn | songhui
[09:52] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, ok, when you boot up the ubuntu machine, do you see a what it says to access the menu? I don't have grub2 installed but I recall the button for grub was Esc to access menu
[09:52] <somaye> hello every bady
[09:52] <songhui> ’╝¤
[09:52] <somaye> body
[09:52] <songhui> ’╝¤’╝¤’╝¤
[09:52] <bytesaber> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo     LOL
[09:52] <bytesaber> what a joke
[09:52] <bytesaber> WARNING: Iptables and NetworkManager seem to have a conflict.
[09:52] <songhui> hello
[09:53] <bytesaber> then friggin decide which to use Ubuntu...
[09:53] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  When I restarted it and held 'shift', it gave me two options - 'F2' which allowed me to go into setup, and then 'F12' which allowed me to go into boot options.
[09:53] <somaye> ?how are you
[09:53] <Khedron> bytesaber: they do, they advise ufw
[09:54] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, hmm not that the one a little after that.. sounds like F2 and F12 are BIOS related stuff
[09:54] <psycho_oreos> songhui, /join #ubuntu-cn
[09:54] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  I think you're right. :/
[09:54] <bytesaber> Khedron, then what about use that write our own iptalbes firewalls?
[09:54] <Khedron> bytesaber: disable stuff
[09:54] <bytesaber> plain ol linux firewalls
[09:54] <bytesaber> omg
[09:54] <bytesaber> dumb
[09:55] <Dr_Willis> Demand a refund...
[09:55] <nibbler_> lucent, it was the killswitch. i could kill myself for this stupidity :)
[09:55] <somaye> have linux fire wall?
[09:55] <nibbler_> somaye, one of the best.
[09:55] <Jordan_U> bytesaber: " However NetworkManager is still in Beta.". Network manager hasn't been beta for a *long* time. That page is very out of date.
[09:55] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, weird.. shift button you said you held down for 15 or so seconds and it didn't do anything.. I'd say try holding down the left shift button only and don't hold it for more than say 5 seconds.. you should get into recovery mode
[09:55] <Dr_Willis> !firewall | somaye
[09:55] <bytesaber> Dr_Willis, it just seems like such a thing that should be standardized by now.  Debian never figured it out, figure ubuntu didn't suffer the same
[09:55] <nibbler_> somaye, but for your case, try firestarter (package)
[09:55] <somaye> i heard that security
[09:56] <Dr_Willis> bytesaber:  i let my router handle it.. so i havent played with firewall rules in ages.
[09:56] <somaye> of linux is very high
[09:56] <lucent> nibbler_: awesome.
[09:56] <bytesaber> Jordan_U, iptables isn't complicated.   it's a set of rules you write, and you stick the rules somplace.   then you have a service load them at boot time.   Why shorewall, ufw, networkmanager, etc.
[09:56] <djh__> hellow
[09:56] <FDFlock> nibbler_: Isn't firestarted a dead project?
[09:56] <FDFlock> It was unmaintained until recently
[09:57] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  I held the left one for fifteen minutes
[09:57] <FDFlock> y*firestarter
[09:57] <android_user> Wubi Installer Error: http://www.2shared.com/photo/Z3fQPPAA/screenshot.html  Any ideas?
[09:57] <Jordan_U> bytesaber: Network manager isn't a firewall.
[09:57] <nibbler_> FDFlock, no idea, would never use it :) but once i looked at it it looked nice
[09:57] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  It never went into recovery mode... Just gave me those two options. :[
[09:57] <FDFlock> It certainly *was* nice, I agree :)
[09:57] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, yeah way too long.. hmm try rebooting and only hold down for maybe 5 seconds.. but as soon as you see when to hit shift button
[09:57] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, lemme check how to access recovery mode or at least grub2's boot menu.. there has to be a way
[09:58] <nibbler_> FDFlock, and its still in the repositories
[09:58] <bytesaber> to make little scripts to load your firewall at boot time on your own as the ubuntu forum suggets, just seems so late 90's.   Linux is far more mature than this.
[09:58] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  As soon as i see when to hit the shift button?
[09:59] <lucent> "bang on keyboard like a monkey" mode,  yeah or shift key
[09:59] <lucent> whichever you fancy.
[09:59] <lucent> I'm partial to the monkey style
[09:59] <jackie189> what mode is that?  How can i tell?
[09:59] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, yes.. there has to be a key you hit to enable the grub's boot menu
[09:59] <cari> tes
[09:59] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, something like this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=grub2.chainload.grub.sm.png
[09:59] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  I don't understand, i've already told you what happens when i hit the shift key... It just freezes and gives me the two options.  F2 or F12
[10:00] <lucent> jackie189: Dell ?
[10:00] <jackie189> lucent:  Yup!  Dell mini 12
[10:00] <lucent> cute
[10:00] <lucent> inspiron 1420n here
[10:00] <jackie189> Nice!  i need a bigger computer, but i love this one... It's periwinkle. :]
[10:01] <lucent> the F2/F12 prompt is not software, it's the Dell BIOS, so that's too early, try again and wait an extra second or two
[10:01] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, hmm I think you've pressed shift a bit too early.. remember there's two screens before you'll actually load linux.. first is the BIOS screen which I'm sure would be something like hitting a key to enter into BIOS or setup and the other is to access boot menu.. but shortly after that you should see another prompt that may say press `this' to access menu
[10:01] <jackie189> lucent:  I've waited on 'shift' for over fifteen minutes. :/
[10:01] <jemand> ja hier!
[10:01] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, though you've held down too early and too long :)
[10:01] <jackie189> hmm... okay.
[10:01] <ABJayo> jemand,  English only
[10:02] <jackie189> So after the bios screen, then i hit 'shift' psycho_oreos?
[10:02] <Jordan_U> jackie189: You should probably just boot from a liveCD at this point (if you have one).
[10:02] <lucent> jackie189: it's okay, computer is not exactly telling you when to press these keys, so it's kind of a guess work
[10:02] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, remember, F2 and F12 goes back to what lucent and I said, its not Grub2 loading.. that's Dell's BIOS
[10:02] <lucent> I reboot and bang on the keyboard like a monkey at random intervals until I find the one that works
[10:02] <lucent> if it doesn't work, reboot and try again
[10:02] <jackie189> Jordan_U:  What's a liveCD?
[10:02] <lucent> that's Monkey Style ;)
[10:02] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  Okay. I'll do that. :D
[10:02] <jackie189> lucent:  LOL!  I'll try that too!
[10:03] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, liveCD is a disk you boot up with to be able to for example fix your linux setup, or windows or to install for example ubuntu
[10:03] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  I don't even have a CD drive on this thing... Too small. :[
[10:03] <jackie189> Okay, i'll reboot
[10:03] <Jordan_U> jackie189: How did you install Ubuntu?
[10:03] <lucent> probably with mind bullets.
[10:03] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, though I'm willing to think netbooks don't have optical drives to begin with, they have USB ports however so you'll need something like unetbootin on flash usb drive and to set dell mini to boot from there
[10:03] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, though so :)
[10:04] <Khedron> bytesaber: sorry if mentioned, but yes, disable ufw, then you can iptables, ubuntu does the 'out of the box' security
[10:04] <jackie89> Okay, now it's a black screen with 'MBR 2FA:"  typed
[10:04] <jackie89> What do i do>
[10:04] <lucent> jackie89: sweet.
[10:05] <lucent> I don't know what that means but I'm going to be curious to find out
[10:05] <jackie89> When i've hit 'enter', it just goes back to the startup menu where i put in my username and password, lucent. :[
[10:05] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, err ok that's a really weird prompt.. not from what I normally expect..
[10:05] <psycho_oreos> hmm that's not right :/ did you see ubuntu screen?
[10:06] <lucent> jackie89: more information for you at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/64166
[10:06] <jackie89> Isn't that where i put in my username and password, though>
[10:06] <Khedron> lucent: usually a problem with preinstalled system partions
[10:06] <lucent> it's worth a read
[10:06] <Khedron> err jackie89  too
[10:06]  * Khedron was reading the wrong nick 
[10:07] <lucent> I just read through briefly and that will help you understand how the Mini boots up, so you know how to get to where psycho_oreos is asking you to get to?
[10:07] <jackie89> Jordan_U:  I didn't install it, Linux Ubuntu was what the computer came with
[10:07] <lucent> though I don't know I'd probably throw it out the window at that point, just me though. Don't let that get you down ;)
[10:08] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, not quite but usually when ubuntu loads up you should see ubuntu logo with the words ubuntu and a small little bar going left and right before it starts filling up the bar
[10:08] <lucent> jackie89: from the link " 1. Boot the mini 9 while pressing ESC every second /  2. When you see the "MBR 2FA:" prompt or similar, the boot process is stopped. /  3. Press ENTER and ESC very fast one after the other."
[10:08] <psycho_oreos> lucent, heh I'm reading through the grub2 documentation, I don't really have much clue beyond that
[10:08] <tensorpudding> the bar is old
[10:08] <lucent> 'MBR 2FA:' is some bootloader thing on the Mini
[10:08] <CountDuckula> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode
[10:09] <lucent> it needs killing, with fire.
[10:09] <Khedron> i've seen it on a few netbooks
[10:09] <tensorpudding> karmic was the last version with the bar
[10:09] <psycho_oreos> I'd agree with what lucent said.. when you get to the right prompt jackie89 you should see something like "grub>"
[10:09] <psycho_oreos> *shrugs* I haven't updated my system since jackalope :)
[10:10] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, or something like this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=grub2.menu.edit.png
[10:11] <lucent> again, none of us knows the "right" answer here
[10:11] <psycho_oreos> you'll see the words clearly on top that is says GNU GRUB which means that you're in Grub's bootloader
[10:11] <lucent> so this will be fun.
[10:11]  * psycho_oreos googles
[10:11] <lucent> psycho_oreos: you should hit up https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/64166 for a read
[10:11] <rypervenche> For anyone with experience installing "glc", where should I set the folder to install it to? It says the default is the root folder, but I would think that /usr/ would be better. Any help with this? http://nullkey.ath.cx/projects/glc/wiki/HowtoInstall
[10:11] <lucent> it's kind of fascinating
[10:12] <CountDuckula> sounds like the answer is get a usb cdrom drive and start again - may be quicker
[10:13] <Jordan_U> jackie89: Well, there is another way to get the menu to come up, though it's a dirty hack. If you have a flash drive available I'd try to make that bootable and boot from it first.
[10:13] <pr0ph3t> hi all

[10:14] <joebloggs> oe
[10:14] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, you'll need to reboot that Dell Mini and constantly/repeatedly hit Esc and Enter until you get a grub menu
[10:14] <psycho_oreos> I think Dell may have deliberately did this to make it harder for one to edit the grub config

[10:19] <JackStoner> MegaHerz: you want the icon back?? or to configure sound??
[10:19] <MegaHerz> JackStoner: icon
[10:19] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, so you see something like the words "Top" on the bottom right?
[10:19] <vikithakar> Please help - Problem: Recently installed Ubuntu 10.10, When I click on Places > Home Folder , it opens Appearence preferences
[10:20] <MegaHerz> JackStoner: >> I have no sound volume icon on the panel. )
[10:20] <psycho_oreos> Wired_, pastebin (not paste) your dmesg output along with lspci -nnk
[10:20] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  Nope. :[
[10:20] <JackStoner> MegaHerz: try and remove the indicator applet and add it back again
[10:21] <jackie189> The top says, "/etc/sudoers" and the bottom says "'/etc/sudoers.tmp' 24 lines, 532 characters"
[10:21] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, looks like you're in vi.. alright, type me out the line for your login it should have your username in the first column type of thing
[10:21] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  It's not showing that either, this is confusing. @.@
[10:22] <MegaHerz> JackStoner: I have only Bluetooth in there. Removed/added - no volume icon.
[10:22] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, hmm
[10:22] <MegaHerz> JackStoner: btw, this is new user, clean. So I wonder why this doesn't work
[10:22] <jackie189> It says things like "Host alias specification" and "User alias specification" and "Cmnd alias specification", it's not allowing me to scroll up or down
[10:23] <JackStoner> MegaHerz: sorry i meant notification applet
[10:23] <Wired_> psycho_oreos: I'm in search for ideas only beacause I don't have the computer here, now. It's my GF notebook and I can use only this evening
[10:23] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, ok type in ":q!" without quotes
[10:23] <psycho_oreos> Wired_, it might be a driver issue or you may have 64bit OS with 32bit driver (ndiswrapper may not work with 64bit), etc etc
[10:24] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, once you are out you should be back to where you were before so to speak
[10:24] <CountDuckula> MegaHerz: is pulse audio service started?
[10:24] <jackie189> It says "root@jaclyn:~# :q!"  "bash: :q!:  command not found
[10:24] <jackie189> "
[10:24] <MegaHerz> CountDuckula: yes
[10:25] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, looks like you're out of that.. ok type in this: "id" followed by your login name
[10:25] <Wired_> psycho_oreos: no, the system is 32bit and the driver seems to be installed... With a usb wireless key that works on other computers her notebook seems to recognize it (with lsusb), the key's led is on, but the wireless won't work...
[10:25] <Jigal> how to check wether xdebug is installed?
[10:26] <psycho_oreos> Wired_, check to see if you have an interface to begin with.. something like iwconfig for starters, if not check dmesg as to any possible reasons why..
[10:26] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  Oh!  Okay, did that... There are lots of things like "gid=1000(jaclyn) groups=1000(jaclyn)" spelled out in the output.
[10:26] <psycho_oreos> Jigal, dpkg -l xdebug
[10:27] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, ok, type in this: "id jaclyn| grep admin"
[10:27] <frederik1986> hi all
[10:27] <alpha_> hi
[10:27] <Jigal> psycho_oreos, when i do that it says no packages found matching xdebug but when i do pecl install xdebug it says that it is already installed
[10:27] <frederik1986> i am running 10.10 and just tried to setup a dhcp server with dynamic bind updates
[10:27] <Wired_> thanks a lot psycho_oreos, have a nice day ;)
[10:27] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, actually nevermind, I just tried that and the output is the same.. just look for the lines "admin" on that output
[10:28] <frederik1986> but i get this error
[10:28] <jackie189> The output is an exact replica of when i typed in 'id jaclyn', psycho_oreos.
[10:28] <jackie189> Oops, okay. :]
[10:28] <psycho_oreos> Jigal, it might be installed under another name, try dpkg -l xdebug* or something
[10:28] <alpha_> have a nice day too
[10:28] <psycho_oreos> Wired_, nw
[10:28] <stavrosg_> Jigal: the package name is php5-xdebug
[10:28] <frederik1986> /etc/bind/named.conf.local:10: key 'DHCP_UPDATER': unable to parse digest-bits
[10:28] <frederik1986> tried google , but found no anwser
[10:28] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  "109(1padmin)"
[10:28] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, yeah I thought so :) just look for the lines: "admin" inside it..
[10:28] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, nope not that
[10:28] <jackie189> "113(admin)
[10:28] <jackie189> "
[10:29] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, hmm you have that but you can't go into sudo, that's weird
[10:29] <ubuntuselur2> is netbeans open source?
[10:29] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, when you were inside visudo, do you recall seeing the lines admin close to the bottom of the screen?
[10:29] <martijn_> hi folks, i'm having trouble getting  a backtrace for a program, can anyone lend me a hand?
[10:29] <jackie189> One second and i'll scroll up, psycho_oreos.
[10:30] <sidhu4788> hello , i am using kubuntu 10.4 . I am facing a problem i have to set desktop resolution every time i login.
[10:30] <nibbler_> martijn_, what exactly do you want to do? you can use strace to trace it in the first place
[10:30] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, err no need, just do "cat /etc/sudoers| grep admin"
[10:30] <jackie189> "#Members of the admin group may gain root privileges %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL", psycho_oreos.
[10:31] <nibbler_> sidhu4788, no idea how you would set a default, but at least if u figure out the command to do that you could add this to your startup session configuration
[10:31] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, that's weird.. it is definitely allowing you to access sudo mode.. I can't see why it wasn't working before
[10:31] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, hmm you were able to login to your own account right?
[10:32] <vikithakar> Please help - Problem: Recently installed Ubuntu 10.10, When I click on Places > Home Folder , it opens Appearence preferences
[10:33] <martijn_> nibbler_, I'm trying to use gdb to get a stacktrace from rhythmbox (as described on the wiki). The weird thing is, rhythmbox doesn't crash like it does without the debugger, but does get frozen.
[10:33] <sidhu4788> nibbler_: can you give me a quick hint i have tried  xrandr in rc.local
[10:33] <martijn_> the wiki tells me to hit ctrl-C in gdm, and get a stacktrace
[10:33] <martijn_> but ctrl-c renders gdm unresponsive
[10:33] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  I can't type in anything because I typed in the 'visu' stuff to see if there was any admin info.
[10:33] <nibbler_> sidhu4788, rc.local might not be appropiate, go to the startup-session programs in your gnome-session (preferences or administration menu, dont know)
[10:34] <stavrosg_> Jigal: any luck yet?
[10:34] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, ok so you're back into that visudo thing.. hit Esc once and type in this ":q!"
[10:34] <nibbler_> martijn_, sorry, no idea.
[10:34] <stavrosg_> Jigal: probably a pecl
[10:34] <jackie189> Whew!  Thank you, psycho_oreos. :]
[10:34] <jackie189> Okay
[10:34] <Jigal> strontium, http://pastebin.com/6RQP51Zh
[10:35] <Jigal> stavrosg_, http://pastebin.com/6RQP51Zh
[10:35] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, now you were able to login to your user account right?
[10:35] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  Yes, but it didn't ask for my password.
[10:35] <Jigal> stavrosg_, its causing me trouble with phpunit
[10:35] <martijn_> I can ask gdb for a stacktrace while rhythmbox is frozen. Would that be any good? (I'm still missing some debug symbols there, but I suppose I can install those too)
[10:35] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, that was whenever you bootup?
[10:36] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  When I actually get onto my computer and exit out of the grub screen?  I haven't tried that yet.
[10:36] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, no what I meant was whenever you started up your computer normally... not what it is running as it is now
[10:37] <stavrosg_> Jigal: did you try to install it through pecl?
[10:37] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  Then yes, I was. :]
[10:37] <Jigal> stavrosg_, yes but then i installed it again using apt-get
[10:37] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, and it never prompted password? if so I think its definitely a good idea to set a passwd for your user account now whilst you have root access
[10:38] <stavrosg_> hmm
[10:38] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  So how do i set that up?
[10:38] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, type in "passwd jaclyn" and hit enter.. then follow the prompts
[10:39] <pertig> hi
[10:39] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  Done. :]  Thank you!  What's next?
[10:40] <Balsaq> need command to restore lost panels
[10:40] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, make sure to remember that password (I'm almost thinking that may have changed how the ubuntu was originally preinstalled on Dell, maybe it only prompted user to click ok to give root access but then again)
[10:40] <psycho_oreos> !panels | Balsaq
[10:41] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  No worries, i'll remember it. :D
[10:41] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, now type in "reboot"
[10:41] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, and when it reboots, don't hit anything, so you can get back into your normal ubuntu bootup
[10:41] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  Okay, it's rebooting, and i'm not touching anything.
[10:42] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, :) now I think its time for us to fix that hostname issue of yours.. and you were saying something about wireless issue before (which prompted me to ask you to pastebin me your dmesg output)
[10:42] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  Sounds good!  And yes, the main reason I came is to set up my wireless internet. :]
[10:43] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, now when you login, it should prompt you for password, so use that password you set bfore
[10:43] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  Done. :]
[10:43] <frederik1986> anyone know what the problem could be with key 'DHCP_UPDATER' : unable to parse digest-bits
[10:43] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, ahh that shouldn't be too hard when using network manager methinks
[10:44] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, you mean wireless internet so you can use wireless networking or you mean wireless broadband?
[10:44] <rocklobster_217> has anybody tried this: http://bluetooth-alsa.sourceforge.net/build.html
[10:44] <stavrosg_> Jigal: does it show up in "apt-cache pkgnames |grep xdebug" ?
[10:44] <psycho_oreos> !info xdebug
[10:44] <jackie189> How do i kick jackie89?  Is it a ghost command?
[10:44] <psycho_oreos> !info *xdebug
[10:45] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, that only works if your handle (for that) is registered
[10:45] <frederik1986> in case this helps  : http://pastebin.com/DazpDBca
[10:45] <stavrosg_> !info php5-xdebug
[10:45] <psycho_oreos> or dpkg -l| grep xdebug
[10:46] <jackie189> psycho_oreos:  I have a network set up at home, but i can't access it.
[10:47] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, ahh ok, so you're now back in normal ubuntu bootup right? pastebin me your iwconfig eth? output
[10:47] <jackie1989> One moment, psycho_oreos
[10:48] <psycho_oreos> jackie1989, lol hang on I messed up that command.. just iwconfig should do
[10:48] <rocklobster_217> whats the command line syntax to view kernel version?
[10:48] <jackie89> There we go. :]
[10:48] <jackie89> Okay, psycho_oreos
[10:48] <psycho_oreos> rocklobster_217, uname -r
[10:48] <rocklobster_217> thanks
[10:48] <psycho_oreos> rocklobster_217, nw
[10:50] <Kadmium> Random question: anybody know of an active irc channel for c programming?
[10:50] <gurpreet> hehe
[10:50] <jackie89> http://paste.ubuntu.com/514920/ - psycho_oreos
[10:51] <psycho_oreos> wasn't it #c or ##c Kadmium?
[10:51] <Kadmium> #c is invite-only
[10:51] <Kadmium> as far as i can tell
[10:52] <psycho_oreos> Kadmium, so it must be ##c because #c is for official C programming support channel (which doesn't exist on freenode only the about channel)
[10:52] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, ok so you have an interface, good, now do you see network manager running on the panel?
[10:52] <rocklobster_217> Any channels for Python?
[10:52] <Kadmium> yeah ok
[10:52] <Kadmium> tried to join ##c
[10:52] <Kadmium> "Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services"
[10:52] <Kadmium> heh
[10:52] <FloodBot3> Kadmium: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:52] <Kadmium> stupid bot
[10:52] <psycho_oreos> Kadmium, you'll need to register your nickname
[10:52] <psycho_oreos> !register | Kadmium
[10:53] <jackie89> psycho_oreos - under control panel. :]
[10:53] <psycho_oreos> rocklobster_217, try ##python (iirc)
[10:53] <Kadmium> registere
[10:53] <Kadmium> d
[10:53] <Kadmium> thanks
[10:53] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, hmm weird, normally you should have an icon on the panel/bar itself but anyway, do you see wireless networks?
[10:53] <jackie89> psycho_oreos -  There's 'Network' 'Network Proxy' and 'Remote Desktop' under the Control Panel.
[10:53] <psycho_oreos> Kadmium, so that means you can join?
[10:54] <Kadmium> yep
[10:54] <Kadmium> im in there now :)
[10:54] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, yeah not quite that.. umm have a check and tell me what's under Network
[10:54] <psycho_oreos> Kadmium, ok
[10:54] <lucent> psycho_oreos: 'nm-applet'
[10:55] <psycho_oreos> lucent, about time you're back :p
[10:55] <jackie89> psycho_oreos:  There's 'Wireless Connections', 'Wired Connections', and 'Point to Point' under Networks.
[10:55] <psycho_oreos> lucent, yeah dunno if the applet should be started by default on later ubuntu.,. it should shouldn't it? my ancient copy of xubuntu has it
[10:55] <rocklobster_217> jackie89: greyed out?
[10:55] <lucent> psycho_oreos: compiling on a laptop with dying fan cooling -> thermal shutdown
[10:56] <lucent> got a mouthful of dirt trying to clean it out the 8-bit nintendo way, too
[10:56] <jackie89> rocklobster_217:  Yup, but i unlocked it.
[10:56] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, hmmm looks like its configuring options which is not idea.. just check the taskbar/panel again.. you should see icon resembling like two computers, one behind the other type of thing
[10:56] <psycho_oreos> lucent, heh ouch
[10:57] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, unlocked it? I'm confused
[10:57] <lucent> I know the answer to this one.
[10:57] <jackie89> psycho_oreos:  There's "Owner's PC" and "Windows Network" with the two computers.
[10:58] <lucent> I'm going to keep quiet though, and take bets on who will figure it out first.
[10:58] <jackie89> psycho_oreos:  There was an option on Network Settings to unlock so I could check the Wireless Connection box.
[10:58] <psycho_oreos> lucent, no luck when I'm on xubuntu jaunty jackalope :)
[10:59] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, ahh ok but you should see nm-applet.. lemme send you a screenie
[10:59] <jackie89> psycho_oreos: Okay. :]
[11:00] <DragonKeeper> can some one help me with a little issue i have with ubuntu?
[11:00] <DragonKeeper> im using TvTime and i managed to get it to read composite input  but the top half of video is repeated under
[11:00] <pernissila> quit
[11:00] <rypervenche> I'm learning how to record videos with glc and I want to have my game's audio plus my microphone's audio both inputed. The  --help says "Record specified ALSA devices. CONFIG format is device,rate,channels;device2....". How do I find the device names, rates, and channels for my audio devices?
[11:00] <pernissila> oops
[11:00] <CountDuckula> nm-applet should show providing the indicator applet is active on taskbar
[11:01] <Jigal> stavrosg_, http://pastebin.com/LF0BcZHa
[11:01] <stavrosg_> Jigal: so, *theoritically*,the package is installed
[11:01] <CountDuckula> nm-applet needs all interfaces (except lo) commented out in /etc/network/interfaces
[11:02] <jackie89> CountDuckula:  I'm really sorry, but I have no idea what you just said. @.@
[11:02] <lucent> CountDuckula: unless all interfaces are defined in /etc/network/interfaces in which NetworkManager back-end will ignore them
[11:02] <lucent> and then you get what jackie89 is looking at
[11:02] <Tigger_Yum-Yum> is it safe to create a swap partition for ubuntu as a LOGICAL partition rather then a primary?
[11:02] <CountDuckula> lucent: exactly
[11:02] <Jordan_U> Tigger_Yum-Yum: Yes.
[11:02] <lucent> CountDuckula: I feel bad knowing all the answers.
[11:02] <Tigger_Yum-Yum> no performance or stability defects Jordan_U?
[11:03] <stavrosg_> Jigal: now, you could put together a small php script calling it to see if php can find it
[11:03] <psycho_oreos> lol I give in on trying to do a screenie.. here's a link jackie89: http://blog-pics.chewearn.com/2009-01/ics-wireless02.jpg
[11:03] <Jordan_U> Tigger_Yum-Yum: Correct, none.
[11:03] <CountDuckula> lucent: I know most lol
[11:03] <Jigal> stavrosg_, i am going to test it using this http://blogs.sun.com/netbeansphp/entry/howto_check_xdebug_installation
[11:03] <CountDuckula> lucent: I build my systems from ground up usually so have seen most stuff
[11:03] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, see how there's two computers sort of thing on the panel?
[11:04] <lucent> CountDuckula: agree with that, experience (and a little intellectual curiosity) is what makes us elitists.
[11:04] <psycho_oreos> for me I would have worked with command line when troubleshooting amongst the majority of other things.. GUI can sometimes be too cumbersome
[11:05] <CountDuckula> lucent:  :)
[11:05] <lucent> or gapers.
[11:05] <lucent> I'm not sure yet.
[11:05] <psycho_oreos> << arch user :P
[11:05] <stavrosg_> ouch
[11:05] <rypervenche> Where can I find a list of my audio devices and their names?
[11:05] <CountDuckula> lucent:  20yrs of fsck ups in my case lol
[11:05] <jackie89> psycho_oreos:  Yup!  I just added the networks to my panel, but i don't get anything like that when i left-click.  I don't get a drop-down menu or the option to add a new network.
[11:05] <psycho_oreos> rypervenche, hmm lspci may help
[11:05] <lucent> rypervenche: contents of /proc/asound/cards
[11:05] <a_> ? hi anyone i have partition file System NTFS but not found ? i have ubuntu LXDE
[11:05] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, ok right click on it and click on enable wireless
[11:06] <lucent> rypervenche: ALSA-recognized ones anyways.
[11:06] <mu__> .
[11:06] <jackie89> It doesn't give that option, psycho_oreos. :[
[11:06] <rypervenche> Well, I need the names for input in a program.
[11:06] <stavrosg_> psycho_oreos: arch was too much breakage for me to bear
[11:06] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, so its greyed out or not visible or it says something else?
[11:06] <CountDuckula> a_: make sure you have ntfs-3g package installed
[11:06] <lucent> a_: boot into windows, run chkdsk, reboot into windows again, run chkdsk again, reboot into Ubuntu.
[11:06] <jackie89> psycho_oreos:  It says, "Properties" "Help" "About" "Remove from Panel" "Move"
[11:06] <psycho_oreos> stavrosg_, well yeah rolling distros are very much like that.. I know they're quite different to how ubuntu does things :)
[11:07] <lucent> Ubuntu stuff refuses to work with "unclean" NTFS, just plain not-gonna-work
[11:07] <jackie89> psycho_oreos:  Nothing is greyed out. :[  Oh, and "Lock to Panel", that's the last one.
[11:07] <rypervenche> It says: "-a, --record-audio=CONFIG  |  Record specified ALSA devices. CONFIG format is device,rate,channels;device2...."
[11:07] <lucent> rypervenche: text file, not a command
[11:07] <lucent> rypervenche: 'cat /proc/asound/cards'
[11:07] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, hmm something isn't right.. when you double click on it do you get the same sort of menu as when you were in control panel > networking menu?
[11:08] <psycho_oreos> more like ASCII text file :)
  ntfs-3g been installed
[11:08] <lucent> jackie89: ping me when you're ready to make things work ;)
[11:08] <rypervenche> lucent: Thank you very much.
[11:08] <jackie89> psycho_oreos:  Oh!  I think it's because i have it as a wired connection already.  One moment
[11:08] <erUSUL> lucent: boot into windows check the filesystem
[11:08] <CountDuckula> a_: yeah i assume it was but worth asking
[11:09] <psycho_oreos> jackie89, it shouldn't really matter.. a properly working nm-applet should display wireless, wireless broadband, etc as options as it sees them
[11:09]  * lucent looks annoyed
[11:09] <stavrosg_> psycho_oreos: I don't like the way ubuntu does stuff, either. I was only bored tailoring a debian unstable system to my netbook, so I just put ubuntu netbook on it. :P
[11:09] <ady01> hi guys any one know how to connect to an authentication server in unbuntu ?  - i have created a ubuntu server but not sure how to loggin from desktop  ?
[11:09] <lucent> psycho_oreos: ...unless interfaces are defined in /etc/network/interfaces  when network-manager will ignore them
 : sure
[11:10] <psycho_oreos> stavrosg_, well yeah to each their own I guess :)
[11:10] <lucent> ady01: is that some kind of SAMBA thing?
[11:10] <jackie189> omg
[11:10] <jackie189> omgomg
[11:10] <psycho_oreos> lucent, hmm
[11:10] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, found something?
[11:10] <CountDuckula> a_: is this a custom ubuntu build or Lubuntu etc
[11:10]  * jackie189 claps her hands in joy, then leaps on both psycho_oreos and lucent to hugggggg them both
[11:11] <lucent> ew
[11:11] <jackie189> The wireless works on my other computer!
[11:11] <lucent> no hugging
[11:11] <leowyn> Hello!  I just love the new Ubuntu font family. The wiki says there is a monospace variant. Does anyone know where can I find it?
[11:11] <psycho_oreos> you might want to disable wired or it won't work well
[11:11] <psycho_oreos> lol lucent
[11:11] <lucent> leowyn: excellent question, and I have no idea of the answer :)
[11:11] <jackie189> Sorry, lucent... I got really excited.  I've had to spend a year on that computer with it being taped in wired.
[11:12] <ady01> lucent it is yes, but my desktop seems to only let me loggin to the notebook - I  want the server to control loggins so that i can have muliple users using any machine -  server part is already set up
[11:12] <lucent> ady01: that's a bit of an advanced question for this channel, to be brief
[11:12] <psycho_oreos> jackie189, from now on you should be able to use wireless, but again for the meantime you'll need to disable wired because ubuntu will get confused over which connection to use first
 : lubuntu normal Version
[11:12] <ady01> lucent thought it was worth asking though ! you never know someone may have done it !
[11:13] <jackie1989> How do i disable wired, psycho_oreos?
[11:13] <leowyn> lucent: do you know of a more specific channel maybe?
[11:13] <lucent> leowyn: I think we can figure this out, what is the name of the new Ubuntu font face?
[11:13] <psycho_oreos> jackie1989, I only know the command line method lol.. on the other computer: sudo ifconfig eth0 down
[11:13] <soreau> with latest updates to firefox, it seems that it is very buggy. FF is slow, nonresponsive and it feels very wrong
[11:13] <ady01> lucent - might take another look on ubuntu forums to see whats on there, thanks
[11:13] <soreau> I tried nuking ~/.mozilla but it didn't help
[11:14] <soreau> I have to constantly restart firefox and the window contents do not update sometimes
[11:14] <soreau> this is on maverick and lucid
[11:14] <soreau> two different machines
[11:14] <lucent> jackie1989: the Ubuntu way involves nm-applet, right click "edit connections"
[11:14] <jackie1989> Done, psycho_oreos. :D
 :i not have windos
[11:14] <Lanks> I am trying to open a program in ubuntu 10.04 and it loads and then just disappears. Is there any way that I can get some sort of log/output from it to see if there are any errors etc?
[11:14] <pr0ph3t> hi all, how do I get specific details of my usb drive, i.e. model, lsusb only gives me the brand
[11:14] <lucent> jackie1989: each connection can be modified and you can uncheck the "connect automatically" option.
[11:14] <netbeast> !mp3
[11:14] <psycho_oreos> jackie1989, now yank that wired cable out and try surfing before you get too excited :) you should now be using wireless
[11:15] <leowyn> lucent: a bit later, have to go now, sorry
[11:15] <_zoom_>  pr0ph3t: have you tried lspci
[11:15] <lucent> pr0ph3t: verbose option
[11:15] <lucent> lsusb -v
[11:16] <psycho_oreos> pr0ph3t, sometimes dmesg may give you more verbose info or you can always google via the vid:pid
[11:16] <jackie1989> Thank you both so, so, so very much for all your patience and help with my computer!  Is there anything i can do for y'all besides get out of your hair?
[11:16] <lucent> jackie1989: learn more.
[11:16] <lucent> drop me a message if you get stuck, more people knowing stuff and things is good.
[11:16] <psycho_oreos> jackie1989, not much really, just learn and help people  (if you can).. give and take :)
[11:16] <erUSUL> Lanks: launch it from a terminal
[11:16] <jackie1989> lucent:  Will do, lucent and psycho_oreos. :]  Thank you again!
[11:17] <Lanks> erUSUL: what is the command?
[11:17] <erUSUL> Lanks: dunno; what is the app?
[11:17] <Jigal> stavrosg_, i get this error PHP Warning:  Module 'xdebug' already loaded in Unknown on line 0

[11:19] <gartral|p> Jigal: run your scripts from the root of /var/www
[11:20] <rek> hi my partition is mislabelled... i've been told ifact gparted says it's ntfs, fdisk says linux and win 7 doesn't see it, so what can i do? sudo fdisk /dev/sda5 t ?
[11:20] <lucent> rek: it might be GPT
[11:20] <rek> what?
[11:20] <lucent> rek: if you edit the safety-mbr of a GPT, then you're just confusing things
[11:20] <stavrosg_> Jigal: maybe it's loaded up twice? I am not familiar with it
[11:21] <Dr_Willis> rek:  what kind of partition/filssyesm is it ?
[11:21] <rek> lucent: i've been told i must o fdisk t
[11:21] <lucent> rek: is your harddisk made with an MSDOS disk label, or a GPT label?
[11:21] <Dr_Willis> fdisk can cahnge the type. yes. but what type is it supposed to be? yopu have data on it?
[11:21] <rek> Dr_Willis: as i said gparted says sda5 is ntfs, fdisk says "linux" and win 7 doesn't see it i did something wrong during the installation
[11:22] <rek> some data i copied Dr_Willis
[11:22] <rek> Dr_Willis: i've been told the data is not touched
[11:22] <Dr_Willis> rek:  yes. but what do YOU want it to be?  was it ntfs? or ext2/3? or whate exactly befor it messed up
[11:22] <lucent> rek: mind pastebin'ing the output of 'sudo parted -l' ?
[11:22] <lucent> with parted installed, of course
[11:23] <rek> Dr_Willis:  i want it to be ntsf        maybe the system think its ext4
[11:23] <rek> ok lucent
[11:23] <rek> !pastebin
[11:23] <Dr_Willis> rek:  you can set the type to ntfs with fdisk,  if you are sure the data on it is actually NTFS
[11:24] <rek> yes Dr_Willis i just did a wrong step partitioning with the ubuntu cd imo
[11:24] <Dr_Willis> You might be able to mount it with the 'mount /dev/XXX /media/XXX -t ntfs '  command.
[11:24] <rek> Dr_Willis: not temporary...
[11:24] <rek> i want it to be ntfs
[11:25] <lucent> may I also ask, are you making backups of your data now?
[11:25] <lucent> ...you should be...
[11:25] <Dr_Willis> mount it.. backup your data.. THEn try to change it.
[11:26] <rek> wait
[11:26]  * lucent readies to facepalm.
[11:26] <rek> Dr_Willis:  backed up 67 gb yesterday with ssh so slow damn
[11:26] <lucent> future use, check out 'duplicity' for network backups
[11:27] <rek> what does lucent readies to facepalm by the way Dr_Willis ?
[11:27] <Dr_Willis> slower then LOOSEING the data?
[11:27] <rek> what ?
[11:27] <lucent> no 'E'
[11:27]  * lucent facepalms.
[11:27] <Dr_Willis> Its still possible you could lose the data.. when in doubt. back it up.
[11:27] <Dr_Willis> If you can get to it now.
[11:27] <lucent> "losing" and not "looseing"
[11:27] <rek> Dr_Willis: i did it yesterday
[11:28] <Dr_Willis> rek:  if its nothing to loose then. You can use fdisk, change the type to be ntfs,  write changes.. then reboot.
[11:28] <rek> http://pastebin.com/SSqfPBT
[11:29] <rek> sorry
[11:29] <rek> it's wrong
[11:29] <rek> i must copy it
[11:29] <cryptodira> does anyone know what part of ubuntu 10
[11:29] <lucent> cryptodira: yes.
[11:29] <rek> http://pastebin.com/SSqfPBPT          lucent Dr_Willis  this is good
[11:30] <cryptodira> kills the backlight keyboard during boot?
[11:30] <Jigal> gartral|p, i do but what to do with that error ?
[11:30] <oxicarus> guys! say i have my dynamic (isp's) ip hooked at a dyndns hostname.. i have ubuntu.. which packages would i need to apt-get to be able to eg. logon to hotmail and send mail to localuseronmysystem@mylittlemachine.mine.nu and have it working? plus which ports will i need to open (if any?) in the firewall of my ubuntu machine?
[11:30] <v_v> hi. i have an experience on ubuntu. it's really great except one little problem. that's is, it's a little slower than some distro like debian. ubuntu can drive all the hardware work fine, so, the kernel is not the best for an specified machine, anyway to make it faster without making an kernel by myself ?
[11:31] <Dr_Willis> v_v:  how are you benchmarking that  problem?
[11:31] <lucent> rek: good.  One more command can tell about this device, 'sudo sfdisk -l'
[11:31] <rek> yes
[11:31] <rek> i do it really often
[11:31] <lucent> will you also pastebin that 'sudo sfdisk -l' ?
[11:31] <rek> ok
[11:32] <erUSUL> oxicarus: many if not all isp do not allow to have a mailserver running ( they block port 25 )
[11:32] <oxicarus> erUSUL: and if my isp is not blocking port 25?
[11:32] <erUSUL> !mta
[11:33] <tonymahoon> hey guys i have a media server running 9.10, the only way i can restart it is if i have a monitor connected to it, can i make it run at another run level/wahtever the ubuntu equivalent is?
[11:33] <v_v> Dr_Willis, oh,maybe you don't think so.
[11:33] <tonymahoon> ie it doesn't boot without a monitor plugged in, how can i change it to boot without a monitor
[11:34] <lucent> tonymahoon: it may be the keyboard, as a fact, and not the monitor
[11:34] <tonymahoon> lucent: nah it's definitely the monitor
[11:34] <cryptodira> lucent: toshiba with amd components, backlit keyboard works on boot-up until the splash screen.... then dies. the question is, what aspect of ubuntu is causing this?
[11:34] <lucent> tonymahoon: have you actually confirmed it is the monitor? okay
[11:34] <Dr_Willis> v_v:  if you are going to be doing a lot of work trying to tweak things. You dhould have some decent test to prove its gotten better/worse/not the same.
[11:35] <Dr_Willis> tonymahoon:  it should still boot.. You could disable teh GDM service i guess..
[11:35] <lucent> tonymahoon: the first thing I'll say is that you might be correct, but I don't believe you.
[11:35] <partitionproblem> http://pastebin.com/8VRYy70Q
[11:35] <rek> click
[11:35] <TopGear> hey
[11:35] <TopGear> is there a torrent of the Netbook version?
[11:35] <Dr_Willis> tonymahoon:  install ssh and see if you can ssh into it when it 'fails' to boot.. what services are you running on it anyway?
[11:35] <partitionproblem> Dr_Willis, i'm rek http://pastebin.com/8VRYy70Q
[11:36] <tonymahoon> lucent: haha fair enough.
[11:36] <lucent> tonymahoon: half or more of the problems I hear about are the user things something is true, but it's just not true.... what's your method to determine the issue with the monitor being attached / not attached?
[11:36] <lucent> thinks
[11:36] <toxictux> hi how can i use my mic but mute it in my boxes with gnome (ubuntu 10.10)
[11:36] <oxicarus> erUSUL: if port 25 is blocked (seems that way), is there any alternative solution (ie. 2nd port mta's n such try) or is local mail delivery all i will be able to do? :/
[11:37] <tonymahoon> lucent: well i remote shell into the server, do a reboot, then i can't access it via ssh, because it doesn't boot. plug in the monitor, hit reset, and it boots and i can ssh in
[11:37] <Dr_Willis> partitionproblem:  so One of those linux partitions is supposed to be a NTFS?
[11:37] <lucent> tonymahoon: sounds dodgy.
[11:37] <tonymahoon> Dr_Willis: i'm talking to you now via irssi on the server ssh'd in
[11:38] <Dr_Willis> My headless servers never had that issue.. :)  ssh should start even if X is not starting. So all i can suggest is try disabling GDM service. and perhaps use th 'text' mode option. so X and Plymouth never get started up
[11:38] <tonymahoon> lucent: i'm pretty sure it happened because i upgraded from server and put the gnome desktop on it. now it tries to boot to that run level, but it fails because there's no monitor
[11:38] <Mossyfunk> I installed ubuntu 8.04 LTS for gfx drivers and installed the proprietry drivers for my ATI Radeon X850 Pro offered but now when I boot the monitor just keeps turning on and off. How can I fix this to try out the drivers from the AMD site?
[11:38] <v_v> Dr_Willis, yes, you are right. maybe what you want is some data .. im not professional. im sorry i don't know how to prove it clearly. as a user, it's just an experience, most of the time, debian doesn't let me wait as long as ubuntu does. thank you. any suggestion to make it better ?
[11:38] <Dr_Willis> tonymahoon:  ubuntu dosent use runlevels that way.
[11:38] <tonymahoon> Dr_Willis: plymouth?
[11:38] <Dr_Willis> v_v:  disable compiz and other eye candy see if it speeds up.
[11:39] <partitionproblem> yes Dr_Willis ! sda 5
[11:39] <Dr_Willis> v_v:  because messing with the kernel will be more work then you proverly want to do.
[11:39] <lucent> partitionproblem: sda5 type needs to be set to type 7, that's pretty safe.
[11:39] <v_v> Dr_Willis, yes, exactly, i don't want to talk to the kernel.
[11:39] <erUSUL> oxicarus: you can set mta to send mail via google
[11:40] <partitionproblem> lucent,  ok i'm not so familiar with that.. sudo fdisk devsda5 t   ?
[11:40] <Dr_Willis> partitionproblem:  fdisk has a menu system you use. its not one large command that i know of.
[11:40] <Dr_Willis> sudo fdisk /dev/sda
[11:40] <lucent> partitionproblem: sudo sfdisk --change-id /dev/sda 5 7
[11:40] <Dr_Willis> t) for type
[11:40] <rashadKM> ubuntu default root password
[11:40] <Dr_Willis> select the #. then set its type. then w)rite changes
[11:40] <rashadKM> my /etc/sudoers id had changed to 1000
[11:41] <Dr_Willis> lucent:  spiffy. :) ive never used the cli that way for it.
[11:41] <rashadKM> how to change uid to 0
[11:41] <lucent> Dr_Willis: lrn2sfdisk :P
[11:41] <Dr_Willis> lucent:  i fly through the menus so fast.. id have it done in the time it takes to type --change-id :)
[11:41] <nast> rashadKM: vi /etc/{passwd,shadow]
[11:41] <gartral|p> Jigal: repeat last post please
[11:42] <ady01> hi guys anyone know where the password files are kept in 10.10 - thought they where in /etc/master.passwd but dont see them ?
[11:42] <Dan_E> I did a computer janitor to clean up my computer in Ubuntu 10.10 and my min max exit icons disappeared how do I get them back please?
[11:42] <ZykoticK9> rashadKM, usually 1000 is the first user (you) be default?!?!
[11:42] <rashadKM> nast: will you make it clear
[11:42] <lucent> Dr_Willis: I'm concerned that spoken language troubles will end in tears and broken data.
[11:42] <Dr_Willis> Dan_E:  alt-f2 compiz --replace
[11:42] <tonymahoon> Dr_Willis: do you have a link to a wiki article or something to disable gdm there appears to be some conflicting advice in the forums
[11:42] <nast> ady01: what do you mean by password files?
[11:42] <Dan_E> thank you Dr
[11:42] <Dr_Willis> lucent:  yep. Gparted has to have this ability also i imagine.
[11:43] <Dr_Willis> Dan_E:  computer janitor can be dangerous.. I never use the tool...
[11:43] <ady01> nast i have created a server to controll authentication and need to edit the way ubuntu loggs in
[11:43] <Bauldrick> can anyone else see their samba shares when going to 'Places' > 'Network' ? Mine don't show up since beta, I have to manually inpput them?
[11:43] <lucent> I wish parted commandline tool had no-write mode
[11:43] <lucent> it's so dangerous.
[11:43] <g0bl1n> hi, I have a Nvidia ION. In 10.10 I activated the proprietary drivers, now after login I get only a wallpaper and the mouse arrow. Any hint ?
[11:44] <rashadKM> i had changed the file permissions of / folder
[11:44] <rashadKM> can i reset
[11:44] <rashadKM> my sudo is not working
[11:44] <Dan_E> worked very well Dr_Willis and will take your advice.
[11:44] <rashadKM> sudo: /etc/sudoers is owned by uid 1000, should be 0
[11:44] <rashadKM> sudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quitting
[11:44] <ZykoticK9> rashadKM, did you try changing your computer's name by chance?
[11:44] <Jigal> gartral|p, still some trouble with installing xdebug
[11:44] <rashadKM> no
[11:44] <Jigal> see my conversation on #xdebug
[11:44] <lucent> rashadKM: haha.  good one.
[11:44] <rashadKM> no ZykoticK9
[11:44] <nast> rashadKM: wow, that's a lot of fail
[11:45] <lucent> it happens to every person
[11:45] <lucent> just, yours is very special.
[11:45] <rashadKM> how can I reset /etc/sudoers id to 0
[11:45] <rashadKM> so that my issue will be solved
[11:45] <lucent> rashadKM: I think you're done.  Re-install time.
[11:46] <Asko> lol
[11:46] <partitionproblem> http://pastebin.com/TS4fWUVC     lucent Dr_Willis
[11:46] <lucent> betting that is not the only set of permissions that are wrong
[11:46] <Asko> i have re-installed ubuntu so many times...lol
[11:46] <rashadKM> lucent: any way to solve without reinstalling
[11:46] <Asko> but i still prefer the root user
[11:46] <lucent> sudo sfdisk --change-id /dev/sda 5 7
[11:46] <lucent> notice the spacing
[11:46] <rashadKM> anyway to restore
[11:46] <rashadKM> ?
[11:47] <lucent> partitionproblem: you're editing the disk sda, and telling sfdisk to change '5' partition to type '7'
[11:47] <lucent> not editing partition sda5
[11:47] <partitionproblem> so?
[11:47] <lucent> sfdisk works on disks, sfdisk is confused if you tell it to edit a partition.
[11:47] <rashadKM> anyone have any ideas other than reinstall please please
[11:47] <partitionproblem> it's written device and partition number lucent
[11:47] <g0bl1n> hi, I have a Nvidia ION. In 10.10 I activated the proprietary drivers, now after login I get only a wallpaper and the mouse arrow. Any hint ?
[11:47] <nast> rashadKM: restore from backup?
[11:48] <lucent> Dr_Willis: can you help, I give up.
[11:48] <nast> rashadKM: if you've recursively fscked / permissions, there isn't any undo
[11:48] <VCoolio> rashadKM: use a livecd to change permissions, or boot in recovery mode, there's a way to boot into console as root
[11:48] <rashadKM> nast: i didnt created backup
[11:48] <rashadKM> ok i will try
[11:48]  * lucent upgrades to double facepalm.
[11:48] <Dr_Willis> you had a command je just cut/pasted right? then rebooted.. and it shoudl been changed lucent ? or did i miss somthing?
[11:48] <partitionproblem> the command didn't work
[11:49] <lucent> Dr_Willis: failed to copy paste the command spacing correctly
[11:49] <g0bl1n> damn ! ALT-F2 doesn't work on Netbook Edition
[11:49] <Asko> hey, does anybody know a notepad for ubuntu that has built-in ftp connection so whenever i ctrl+s it will update on the web server, too?
[11:49] <Dr_Willis> use fdisk then. and the fdisk menus.. sudo fdisk /dev/sda   Or copy the command better... :)
[11:49] <Dr_Willis> be easier to copy the command better...
[11:49] <oxicarus> now a basic (stupid?) question. will i need to have an smtp daemon (eg. esmtp) installed for php's mail() function to work on my host?
[11:49] <lucent> NO => "sudo sfdisk --change-id /dev/sda5 7"
[11:49] <v_v> Dr_Willis, you are so active here, awesome, man
[11:49] <edagar> Hi. I'm running ubuntu 10.04, and i need to get a wireless usb adapter.. i'm thinking about getting D-Link DWA-160 Wireless N USB. does anyone know if that one will work?
[11:49] <lucent> YES => "sudo sfdisk --change-id /dev/sda 5 7"
[11:49] <Asko> dont think so oxicarus
[11:50] <Dr_Willis> Asko:  you could use the fuseftp filesystem and mount a ftp server to a local dir.. then any editopr/tool could do that
[11:50] <Asko> i didnt need any
[11:50] <oxicarus> Asko: ty, then i can uninstall it :)
[11:50] <oxicarus> i installed it 'just to be on the safe side'
[11:50] <partitionproblem> mirko@ubuntu:~$ sudo sfdisk --change-id   /dev/sda 5 7
[11:50] <partitionproblem> Attenzione: la partizione estesa non inizia al limite di un cilindro.

[11:50] <Dr_Willis> lucent:  sda 5 7
[11:50] <Asko> allright Dr_Willis, sounds hard, but i will give it a try
[11:51] <edagar> does anyone know of D-Link DWA-160 Wireless N USB will work under ubuntu 10.04?
[11:51] <Dr_Willis> or was it sda5 7 - i never use teh commands.. i use fdisk :)
[11:51] <partitionproblem> did it lucent and it says that phrase├╣
[11:51] <lucent> I am tired.
[11:51] <lucent> no more free help from me tonight, bye now.
[11:51] <partitionproblem> wait
[11:52] <partitionproblem> Dr_Willis,  seen the phrase?
[11:52] <partitionproblem> talks about cilinders
[11:52] <partitionproblem> ok maybe i did it
[11:54] <Asko> Dr_Willis: i found a "ultraedit" notepad, which should do the same :)
[11:54] <Asko> so issue solved for me
[11:54] <Dr_Willis> fuse is too handy to not learn about Asko
[11:55] <Dr_Willis> that fuse ftp is rather trivial to get going. and would let you access the whole server as a local dir. with any tools
[11:55] <Asko> umm
[11:55] <Asko> my excuse here is, that i like simple solutions
[11:55] <Asko> :D
[11:56] <nast> the editor vim supports ftp, among others, due to netrw
[11:56] <Asko> so when that simple ftp will do it
[11:56] <Asko> then im cool
[11:56] <Asko> vim?
[11:56] <Asko> will check that out, too then
[11:57] <jsomers> Hi, I used the ubuntu installer to setup a raid 5 next to a clean installation, but it seems to finish rather quickly, normally using mdadm it takes hours to set it up
[11:57] <v3nd3tta``> console editor - difficult to handle for some users, most difficult to new ones
[11:57] <jsomers> do I need to do something else after the reboot, or just let it be?
[11:57] <nast> jsomers: familar with RAID5 write hole? :)
[11:58] <jsomers> nast: no, I am completely new to it
[11:58] <g0bl1n> wow, anyone with a NVidia ION and Netbook Edition 10.10 working with NVidia propr. drivers ?
[11:58] <cryptodira> I would think this to be an easy problem to solve,,,, how to keep the backlit keyboard function After boot-up.... I am flummoxed for a solution.
[11:58] <nast> jsomers: ahh, if you lose power during a write to a RAID5 array, you can get inconsistent parity, hence software solutions like RAID-Z in ZFS, and HW HARD cards having non-violatile caches
[11:59] <jsomers> I first tried mdadm manually, but did a major screwup, so I restarted and used the guided tutorial on http://tinyurl.com/l5ad4y (ubuntu help document)
[11:59] <jsomers> and now the installation finished, and I am rebooting, but it was all so fast
[11:59] <James-Blaze> Hi can anyone tell me the command to install the latest Ubuntu kernel for a Pentium Core 2 Duo processor please?
[12:00] <normit08> hi all, when i print pdfs from evince the text comes out all weird with spacing. it happens on numerous printers. and it is only in evince this happens
[12:02] <Tailkinker> I just had to re-install 10.04, and this time, when I set up my wireless key, the computer insists on using a keyring program and bugging me for a password to connect to my wireless.  It did not do so before.  I don't want it to do so.  How do I stop it?
[12:02] <jsomers> nast: nevermind, cat /proc/mdstat is showing it's doing something, and it looks far better than this morning :)
[12:02] <jsomers> hopes are high :)
[12:03] <VCoolio> James-Blaze: have the latest ubuntu version (maverick, 10.10) and update & upgrade; if you want to be bleeding edge add a repository containing late(st) kernel from launchpad.net
[12:03] <Dr_Willis> set the keyring password to be blank Tailkinker  and it will use 'unsafe storage; and not ask again'
[12:03] <normit08> anyone who can help me fix my problem above
[12:03] <ady01> hi guys anyone fimilar with the  /etc/nsswitch.conf file ?
[12:03] <James-Blaze> Vcoolio i have one machine with 10.4 and one with 10.10
[12:04] <VCoolio> James-Blaze: I mean, there isn't a command to get a newer package than you get with regular updates, unless you add a repository
[12:04] <normit08> and before maverick evince used to print the exact same PDF's properly
[12:04] <James-Blaze> ahh sorry
[12:04] <Tailkinker> Great, thanks.  Next bonehead question:  How do I change this password?
[12:05] <James-Blaze> Vcoolio thanks, should I just install 10.10 then?
[12:05] <Tailkinker> There appears to be nothing in the dialogue, nor is there anything in the control panels or menus.  If there is a command line needed, I do not know it.
[12:05] <VCoolio> James-Blaze: yeah, or find a repo for 10.04 that has a newer kernel if you need that
[12:05] <erUSUL> Tailkinker: Aplications>Accesories>keys and ... first tab. right click on login
[12:05] <James-Blaze> thanks Vcoolio
[12:06] <James-Blaze> Vcoolio How do I find a repo for 10.04 pal?

[12:06] <antIP> How can I test openbox in ubuntu gnome?
[12:06] <_zoom_> HI, how to get usb phone keypad working in ubuntu 10.04
[12:06] <_zoom_> ?
[12:06] <VCoolio> James-Blaze: I'm looking; never did that myself
[12:07] <Dr_Willis> antIP:  install openbox. and it should have entries in teh GDM menus to use it
[12:07] <James-Blaze> hehe
[12:07] <Dr_Willis> erUSUL:  i think thats moved in 10.10 also :)
[12:07] <antIP> Dr_Willis:: What is the GDM menus?
[12:07]  * erUSUL behind the times :S
[12:08] <Tailkinker> No, it's not there.
[12:08] <ZykoticK9> antIP, GDM is what you use to login with by default in Ubuntu - where you type user/password
[12:08] <Tailkinker> It's the password it asks me for to sign into that keyring entirely.
[12:08] <ajip> i`m using ubuntu 10.10, when played mp3 or video, i`ts always stuck.. what wrong?
[12:09] <bruna> coucou
[12:09] <antIP> Dr_Willis: I did install openbox session through software center. It shows up in the Applications menu, but doesn't do anything when i click on it.  OHHHH, Thats the GDM menu. Thanks. SO If I restart I can choose to use openbox. ok
[12:09] <jo-erlend> can someone tell me why PolicyKit isn't installed by default anymore? Or at least the editor doesn't seem to be.
[12:09] <ABJayo> is it safe to log into gmail when I'm on a public Wifi?
[12:09] <nast> ABJayo: gmail does support https
[12:09] <jo-erlend> ABJayo, if you use security, yes.
[12:09] <Dr_Willis> Tailkinker:  look under system -> perferances for  the keyring tool
[12:09] <bruna> iam not expling englis
[12:09] <Dr_Willis> antIP:  thats how GDM works. :)
[12:10] <VCoolio> James-Blaze: this looks promising http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppas/37
[12:10] <Tailkinker> There is no keyring tool under System->Preferences.
[12:10] <ABJayo> nast and jo-erlend, my gmail is set to always use https, that enough security? or can people still "steal" my password?
[12:10] <Dr_Willis> antIP:  click user name on GDM screen, menus at buttom.
[12:10] <Dr_Willis> Tailkinker:  its in the menus somewhere.. what versionof ubuntu you using?
[12:10] <Tailkinker> 10.04.  I have "Passwords and Encryption" from Accessories open.
[12:11] <Exploiter> Tailkinker i guess its password and encryption
[12:11] <jo-erlend> ABJayo, that's enough. Be careful when you're using public computers, though, since they can use keystroke listeners to obtain your password. But https is sufficient from a network security point of view.
[12:11] <Dr_Willis> Tailkinker:  i got a video of changeing it at .. http://drop.io/dr_willis  but its a little old.
[12:11] <normit08> hi all evince and only evince prints out PDF files with weird spacings. anyone who can help me with this?
[12:11] <ABJayo> jo-erlend,  I only use my own PC :P. Thx :)
[12:12] <openstandards> Hi does anyone know if mouse support can be added to urxvt?
[12:12] <tensorpudding> openstandards: what do you mean by mouse support?
[12:12] <openstandards> copy and paste, i want the same sort of support as gnome-terminal
[12:12] <Friar> I am running openvpn and I keep getting an error message the my connection has timed out....any ideas here?
[12:13] <tensorpudding> openstandards: there's configuration which allows you to click hyperlinks in urxvt, and the scroll wheel should work, and there's a scrollbar available too
[12:13] <tensorpudding> openstandards: there's no Control+c Control+v copypaste in urxvt
[12:13] <James-Blaze> thanks Vcoolio!
[12:13] <openstandards> I just found out that highlight is done via using shift
[12:13] <Tailkinker> Thanks, but that's not the password I want to change.  It's the password used to access the entire keyring.
[12:14] <tensorpudding> openstandards: you can do the standard copy-paste for X11 though
[12:14] <Ankitg> hi to all
[12:14] <ImAlive> Dr_Willis,  i got an .rpj file from recontructor studio what do i do with it?
[12:14] <Ankitg> How to download something from internet while working on ubuntu
[12:15] <TWISTED> HEY GUYS :)
[12:15] <Tailkinker> Sorry, I should state that a bit more clearly:  I wish to change the password used to access to keyring, not the password used to log into my system.
[12:15] <TWISTED> im running YLMF OS 3 like a ubuntu thats mod. its cool you know it?
[12:15] <ImAlive> he is sleppin
[12:15] <ImAlive> :)\
[12:15] <ZykoticK9> Tailkinker, i "believe" if your system password and keyring passwords match - you won't be prompted
[12:16] <Tailkinker> This is not the case.
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> ImAlive:  their web site can use it. or the recontructor tools you can install.
[12:16] <Tailkinker> The two passwords do not match.
[12:16] <unix> 89.228.4.5
[12:16] <Dr_Willis> ImAlive:  its a project file i think that has your saved settings in it. so you can give it to others. or save it for later
[12:16] <IpSe_DiXiT> hi what is the password to the keyring? if i try to open "ubuntu one" it says "your password does not longer match with the keyring login password" what is that? what does it mean? how do i find the password or how do i change it? thank u
[12:17] <Guest25180> 89.228.4.5
[12:17] <Tailkinker> However, I think I figured it out, with your ideas.  Thanks.
[12:17] <Dr_Willis> Tailkinker:  i ente the current keyring password. then in the following boxs i leave blank and select ok.. it asks to 'use unsafe storage' and it then never asks
[12:17] <tensorpudding> Guest25180: stop that
[12:17] <Guest25180> 89.228.4.5
[12:17] <ImAlive> an i thought i was making a build, lol
[12:18] <Dr_Willis> Tailkinker:  the binary name is 'seahorse' if you cant find it in the menus.
[12:18] <VCoolio> openstandards: you may like this Please have a look at the top of the file for details on how to use it, or read the README on github.

[12:24] <IpSe_DiXiT> Dr_Willis: ah alright, from the terminal, done
[12:25] <chu_> yay! it's backup for me
[12:25] <Dr_Willis> IpSe_DiXiT:  or find the passwords/key item in the menus.. but they keep moveing/renaming it in every reelase
[12:25] <Dr_Willis> easier to just run seahorse.
[12:25] <chu_> Does anyone have any experience with one of the tablet/laptops and ubuntu?
[12:26] <IpSe_DiXiT> Dr_Willis: did that but when i try to change it it asks me for the old pwd, which i dunno. this is a lucid lynx fresh install
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> IpSe_DiXiT:  try your login password? People often type it in by default the first time it asks for a password to use
[12:29] <Dr_Willis> IpSe_DiXiT:  theres some file to delete that resets thekeyring totally. but im not  sure where its at.

[12:38] <wisey7> do isp's share the bandwidth in real time or divide it up and give people their share even if they aren't using it?
[12:38] <penguin42> wisey7: A bit of both probably
[12:39] <penguin42> wisey7: Mostly I think it's a weighted fight for bandiwdth so if people aren't using it you get it, but for some critical stuff they probably allocate a bit of bandwidth for users - anyway it's rather OT !
[12:39] <Dr_Willis> IpSe_DiXiT:  looks about right
[12:40] <wisey7> OT?
[12:40] <IpSe_DiXiT> Dr_Willis: doesn't work, plus in that directory there's only login.keyring
[12:40] <Kaco> hello
[12:41] <wisey7> penguin42 ot?
[12:41] <chu_> wisey7: off-topic
[12:41] <penguin42> wisey7: Off Topic for #ubuntu
[12:42] <ZykoticK9> wisey7, OT = Off Topic, but TCP is not connection oriented, so it doesn't get divided up between users - the main "pipe" is just used by all users
[12:44] <wisey7> zykotick9, i know its OT but why are so many people on the internet between 5-11pm peak times?
[12:44] <chu_> after work hours probably
[12:44] <ZykoticK9> wisey7, because that's when most people use their internet?
[12:45] <wisey7> but most people get the weekend off work so you'd think it would be busy then also, but its not really

[12:54] <dhiry2k> hi all,i have installed ubuntu using apt-get install lubuntu-desktop but boot time splash image is not coming
[12:54] <dhiry2k> so which package ned to be install
[12:56] <Dr_Willis> Hmm.. seems every update to the kernel or Somthing.. breaks grub on my laptop. BUT i can boot this flash drive i got setup. it somehow got the  grub menu that lets me then boot the hard drive.. that works to get me back to my system
[12:56] <Dr_Willis> but im not sure whats breaking grub.
[12:56] <penguin42> Dr_Willis: In what way does it break ?
[12:56] <Dr_Willis> penguin42:  flashing cursor thats it....
[12:57] <Dr_Willis> done it several times during beta.. and now after final is out..
[12:57] <penguin42> Dr_Willis: Ouch, and how do you fix it - do you get Grub1 or 2 ?
[12:57] <dhiry2k> Dr_Willis, i beleive its grub package problem
[12:57] <Dr_Willis> grub2. i boot the flash drive which SOMEHOW got grub on it that can boot the hard drive. as if i tas booting from teh HD.
[12:57] <penguin42> Dr_Willis: Hang on, are you saying it keeps reinstalling grub to the flash drive instead of the hard drive?
[12:57] <Dr_Willis> Im still not sure how that flash drive is doing that I tell bios to boot the flash.. it shows the same grub  menu as the HD. :)
[12:58] <Dr_Willis> penguin42:  i can remove the flash drive after the system boots. and rerun update-grub and that has fixed it in the past.
[12:58] <Dr_Willis> so figure that out. :)
[12:58] <Dr_Willis> i wonder if some HD's are getting reordered or something. this laptop has 2 hard drives.
[12:58] <penguin42> Dr_Willis: What does /boot/grub/device.map look like?
[12:58] <chu_> ignis78: I'm sorry, I can't find anything
[12:59] <harrierP> Hi, I just setup an ubuntu server box. as a network bridge,(using https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Router tutorial). This works fine, except that i can't access the internet from the server. The brigde forwards the internet between the two networks.
[12:59] <Dr_Willis> penguin42:  let me check.. i just ran sudo dpkg-reconfiogure grub-pc and its set to be on sdb. which is correct.. NOT sdc. which is the flash drive.. or sda whch is the windows drive. :)
[13:00] <Dr_Willis> i wonder if its some issue because i got grub on one HD.. but the actual linux install is on a different HD.
[13:01] <Dr_Willis> either update-grub, or sudo dpkg-reconfiogure grub-pc fixed it.. :) for a few more days
[13:02] <edagar> Does anyone know if D-Link DWA-160 Wireless N USB will work under ubuntu 10.04? or 10.10?
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> penguin42:  i dont even have a device.map :) does grub2 use that?
[13:03] <penguin42> Dr_Willis: I think so, mine has it
[13:04] <penguin42> Dr_Willis: Thought, have you got the right /boot mounted?

[13:12] <ziroday> izinucs: Hi, can I help?
[13:12] <HerosCorp> is there any latex user┬Ā?
[13:12] <izinucs> ziroday: thanks.. no.. it's just rare that it's so quiet in here after a new release..
[13:12] <chu_> HerosCorp: Yeah, but I have no idea what pgf is
[13:13] <ziroday> HerosCorp: possibly, there is also #latex on this network :)
[13:13] <kox> anybody using iscsi multipathing under ubuntu?
[13:13] <HerosCorp> thanks :)
[13:14] <ziroday> izinucs: the US is just waking up, and its only morning for europe
[13:15] <izinucs> ziroday: yep.. 5:15am here.
[13:15] <chu_> Yikes, dedication right there
[13:16] <c6h12o6free> I wonder why it is everyone conflates passion and dedication. I see the two a little bit differently, I suppose.
[13:16] <izinucs> something woke me at 4 so I decided to stay up and upgrade my laptop testbed :)
[13:17] <c6h12o6free> That sounds like the best Sunday morning ever, actually.
[13:17] <chu_> Yeah, see, for me, I would have gone back to bed :p
[13:18] <enbloc> does ubuntu one public folder understand links and subdirectories? If I make a link to a directory from my public folder will it share it recursively down to the bottom, and how do I publish links to it?
[13:18] <c6h12o6free> I came into the office this morning, major fail because I minecrafted until 2 AM
[13:18] <izinucs> I've done the auto upgrade route so many time always expecting smooth results.. but never have I had it successful.. this is a different laptop so we'll see.
[13:18] <ignis78> tnx for you help chu_ :-)
[13:18] <plouffe> I can't find galeon in synaptic. Is it no longer available in the repositories?

[13:18] <ubiquitous1980> how do I prevent Xorg from starting in ubuntu (already tried update-rc.d gdm remove
[13:18] <ignis78> don't worry :-)
[13:18] <enbloc> and do public shared items still require the other person have an ubuntu one account?
[13:19] <ZykoticK9> ubiquitous1980, see my note at http://sites.google.com/site/alucidfs/how-i-do/boot-to-console---disable-graphical-login-gdm
[13:19] <g00se> I installed amd64 meerkat yesterday, attempting dual boot. I got to a point where the installer said something to the effect that it had detected Vista (it's Win 7 but hey) and that it'd probably be OK to put grub2 into the MBR, which was fine by me, since i'd created a 1GB partition for this. Only thing is when i boot the box, there's no boot menu and it goes straight to Windows. Why? The partition table: http://paste.ubuntu.c
[13:19] <chu_> ubiquitous1980: I don't know if Ubuntu likes it, but you can do some googling for inittab and change the run-level if I remember.
[13:19] <chu_> Or just read ZykoticK9's link :)
[13:20] <VCoolio> plouffe: it has been deprecated for years; try epiphany
[13:20] <ubiquitous1980> thank you ZykotickK9 thank you for this information, thank you chu_ for this information.
[13:20] <izinucs> g00se: you have more than one HD in the machine right?
[13:20] <ziroday> g00se: sounds like you haven't installed any MBR, and you don't need to put aside partition space for it. One sec whilst I pull up the documentation
[13:20] <Pillum> hey guys
[13:20] <ziroday> g00se: also your paste.u.c link got cut off
[13:20] <g00se> ziroday: Well i was going to make it a boot partition
[13:20] <Pillum> there is no ppu-gcc in the 10.10 repo, how can I compile it manually?
[13:21] <ZykoticK9> chu_, just FYI - but runlevels in Ubuntu mean almost nothing -- see !runlevels factoid for more info ;)
[13:21] <ubiquitous1980> how is it, that update-rc.d does not prevent the starting of Xorg, how have they managed to get around this usual behaviour?
[13:21] <izinucs> g00se: do you have more than one drive? if so then most likely grub got installed on the wrong one by accident.. if that's the case just install grub to the other or change the boot order of the drives in the bios
[13:21] <g00se> izinucs: No
[13:21] <ziroday> g00se: this should do what you want https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20GRUB%202 also make sure that the partition with the HDD with grub is first up in your BIOS boot order
[13:21] <izinucs> k
[13:22] <coolsan> how can i change login screen
[13:22] <ziroday> coolsan: change how?
[13:22] <ZykoticK9> ubiquitous1980, ubuntu now uses Upstart to start services
[13:22] <ZykoticK9> !upstart | ubiquitous1980
[13:23] <coolsan> background
[13:23] <cutiyar> i cant see (minimize,aximize,close) buttons ?
[13:23] <ZykoticK9> !controls | cutiyar
[13:23] <Dr_Willis> coolsan:  the wallpaper is easy to change. Ubuntu-tweak or just edit the background file.
[13:23] <ubiquitous1980> thank you again for your information
[13:23] <g00se> Guys, does the 'boot' partition i posted look ok for grub2?
[13:23] <Dr_Willis> coolsan:  i also recall a program called 'gdm2setup' that let you tweak some features of gdm2
[13:23] <stilia-johny> is there channel for grub?
[13:23] <ZykoticK9> cutiyar, oh see - sorry - use "compiz --replace" and if that fails "metacity --replace"
[13:24] <AbhiJit> cutiyar, gtk-window-decorator --replace
[13:24] <Dr_Willis> stilia-johny:  perhaps #grub
[13:24] <stilia-johny> tnks is correcet!!!!!
[13:25] <coolsan> Dr_Willis: i download some .tar.gz theme but how to install
[13:25] <cutiyar> ubottu,no its not shown i knew this
[13:26] <ZykoticK9> coolsan, the old GDM themes do not work with the new GDM
[13:26] <mamece2> hi guys my internet is very slow, its impossible to get to youtube and the only quick pages are google and chat
[13:26] <ZykoticK9> cutiyar, sorry that was my fault
[13:26] <cutiyar> AbhiJit, what i do? to ge then back
[13:26] <Noctis_Lux> hi.
[13:26] <ZykoticK9> cutiyar, use "compiz --replace" and if that fails "metacity --replace"
[13:26] <c6h12o6free> mamece, there are about a billion reasons why your internet could be slow. Context?
[13:26] <dhiry2k> hi
[13:26] <AbhiJit> cutiyar, gtk-window-decorator --replace
[13:26] <Dr_Willis> coolsan:  its very likely its a GDM1 theme.. and NOT a gdm2 theme.. and thus not useable.
[13:27] <dhiry2k> i have installed mono 2.0 in armel os and will this able to run .exe which is created for x86 windows os
[13:27] <stilia-johny> does any from here know about grub because everybody in grub's channel sleeping xa :D
[13:27] <cutiyar> AbhiJit, ZykoticK9 ,where i write these
[13:27] <tensorpudding> dhiry2k: no
[13:27] <AbhiJit> cutiyar, ahhh in terminal
[13:27] <izinucs> !grub2 | stilia-johny
[13:27] <ZykoticK9> cutiyar, alt+f2 or in a terminal
[13:27] <tensorpudding> dhiry2k: unless it is written in cross-platform C#
[13:28] <tensorpudding> dhiry2k: it won't work if it uses any libraries that Mono can't implement
[13:28] <g00se> ziroday: Does the table at http://paste.ubuntu.com/514989/ look OK?
[13:28] <dhiry2k> tensorpudding, i dont know much about windows technology
[13:28] <dhiry2k> but i have source code for the same
[13:28] <coolsan> Dr_Willis: how can i install n download GDM2
[13:29] <jerenept> its built in to Ubuntu
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> coolsan:  gdm2 is the default on the last 2 releases of ubuntu.
[13:29] <tensorpudding> dhiry2k: Mono's website has a guide to what libraries it supports
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> coolsan:  befor that it was gdm1 i belive.. may been 3 releases ago.
[13:29] <cutiyar> AbhiJit, ZykoticK9 , its over after downloading these?
[13:29] <Dr_Willis> coolsan:  changeing the wallpaper is easy. changing themes  is harder.
[13:29] <AbhiJit> cutiyar, i never told you to download anything
[13:29] <izinucs> g00se: you might consider creating a partition for root "/" and one for home "/home".  That way if you have issues and need to reinstall.. all your stuff in /home will stay..
[13:30] <cutiyar> AbhiJit, whats these gtk-window-decorator?
[13:30] <g00se> izinucs: Yes, the 1GB partition was in fact for /boot
[13:30] <izinucs> g00se: / can be 8-12gigs and the rest for /home .. I'd also make /swap at lease 1gig
[13:30] <coolsan> Dr_Willis: plzzzzzz
[13:30] <izinucs> g00se: you don't have a 1 gig partition
[13:31] <AbhiJit> cutiyar, copy the line exactly as you see here in the the termincla just copy paste press enter
[13:31] <g00se> izinucs: I'm being cautious as the guy i'm installing for wants around 5 more data partitions
[13:31] <izinucs> g00se: I take that back.. you do but  it's ntfs ..
[13:31] <coolsan> Dr_Willis: how can i change wallpaper??
[13:31] <g00se> izinucs: That's what i was hoping someone would spot ;) And?
[13:31] <cutiyar> AbhiJit, i did this told me to write sudo apt-get install compiz-gnome
[13:32] <JohnHeikkila> Hey
[13:32] <jerenept> open an image in image viewer. in one of the menus there is "set as desktop background"
[13:32] <izinucs> g00se: not sure why you're creating a separata /boot partition.  just a separate / and /home and /swap.. /swap can be used between different linux installs.. might make it 2gigs
[13:32] <ziroday> g00se: err it appears to show that grub is not installed
[13:32] <Oli``> Anybody know what the direct command for the software sources screen is?
[13:32] <JohnHeikkila> Is it possible to bridge 'wlan0' to 'eth0' so that I can get the connection from the wireless but then transfer the connection from my PC to another PC with an ethernet cable?
[13:33] <g00se> ziroday: I wonder if that's because it's ntfs
[13:33] <kalle_> is it normal that Ubuntu 10.10 strangles your download speed, and gives a bad result during a speedtest.net test?
[13:33] <izinucs> g00se: also you'd be better off using ext3 or 4 for linux .. not ntfs
[13:33] <ziroday> g00se: what is the first ntfs partition that has the boot flag?
[13:33] <coolsan> Dr_Willis: how can i change wallpaper??
[13:33] <AbhiJit> cutiyar, sorry i cant keep up with your issue. i need to go . try asking to channel
[13:33] <izinucs> ziroday: he was going to use that for /boot
[13:33] <g00se> ziroday: That's where grub2 was meant to go
[13:33] <coolsan> Dr_Willis: how can i change wallpaper of login screen??
[13:33] <ziroday> Oli``: software-properties-gtk
[13:33] <g00se> izinucs: And that
[13:33] <Oli``> ziroday: thanks
[13:33] <jerenept> .willis. you cant
[13:34] <jerenept> not AFAIK
[13:34] <ziroday> g00se: right, well firstly I'd reformat it as ext3. Then install grub2 there. Finally mark it for /boot in /etc/fstab
[13:34] <cutiyar> how can i get my window-manager back?
[13:34] <izinucs> g00se: grub is small.. it get's put at the beginning of the drive.. and points to a file in root.. /boot is used differently
[13:34] <coolsan> how can i change wallpaper of login screen??
[13:34] <izinucs> g00se: grub doesn't need you to create a partition for it.
[13:35] <g00se> izinucs: Yes, i know. I was going to make that /boot too
[13:35] <coolsan> how can i change wallpaper of login screen & splash screen??
[13:35] <izinucs> g00se: why?
[13:36] <g00se> Well i thought it could be useful in a dual boot situation. Maybe not though
[13:36] <etheretic1> Is there a program which compares the contents of several harddisks? Preferably gui.
[13:36] <JohnHeikkila> Is it possible to bridge 'wlan0' to 'eth0' so that I can get the connection from the wireless but then transfer the connection from my PC to another PC with an ethernet cable?
[13:36] <dhiry2k> tensorpudding, like our c program do we need to recompile code of .net for arm platform
[13:36] <izinucs> g00se: no.. one partition for windows... 3 for linux.. each additional linux install 2 partitions but makes use of the same /swap
[13:37] <rlankfo> JohnHeikkila: you could buy a router ;)
[13:37] <izinucs> !ics | JohnHeikkila
[13:37] <g00se> OK well the 1GB partition's there now, so i guess i'll reformat per ziroday
[13:38] <tensorpudding> dhiry2k: i'm pretty sure you would, I don't think PE provides universal binaries.
[13:39] <dhiry2k> tensorpudding, can you tell me how to do because i never used windows
[13:40] <dhiry2k> what is the normal process to change .net application for linux
[13:40] <Diverdude> how do i set firefox to use document viewer as standard pdf reader instead of slow slow acrobat reader?
[13:40] <mrk_> hi, new to ubuntu, but yelp fails with 'could not initialise gecko'. it is reported on gentoo bugzilla, http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=248133  but is too technical for me to understand. can anyone help please?
[13:40] <tensorpudding> dhiry2k: i don't know, I don't use Mono to build such things. You should ask in the mono support channel #mono on irc.gnome.org
[13:40] <dhiry2k> Diverdude, about:config
[13:43] <onaogh> Diverdude, Firfox: Edit -> Preference -> Applications (tab)
[13:44] <Oli``> Can nano open a file at a specific line?
[13:45] <lemmoner> hi, how should I configure my /etc/fstab to force the system to mount the partitions at boot time, and allowing my non-root user to access them with rwx rights?
[13:45] <domjohnson> Why does qjackctl not work in 10.10?
[13:47] <kellnola> lemmoner, what's in fstab already gets mounted at boot time, unless it has a "noauto" argument
[13:47] <herbmonk> lemmoner: /dev/(your drive)       /media/(your folder)    (ext type)   rw,user,auto,exec     0    0
[13:47] <oldmeng> join #ubuntu-cn
[13:48] <herbmonk> lemmoner: you need to make a folder in media to mount to
[13:48] <zeroGravity> hello how do i check my ipadress in ubuntu?
[13:48] <kellnola> zeroGravity, "ifconfig"
[13:48] <zeroGravity> i tryed with ifconfig but all i get it 127.0.0.1
[13:48] <lemmoner> herbmonk, so "user" is the keyword to allow the users the access, right?
[13:48] <zeroGravity> i'm connected to a server through my vbox
[13:48] <herbmonk> yes
[13:48] <mrk_> "Could not initialize gecko!" there is also some technical correspondence about it on http://www.mail-archive.com/blfs-support@linuxfromscratch.org/msg08331.html  and a response on the next page - can anyone make sense of it for me?
[13:49] <loculinux> salut
[13:49] <loculinux> holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[13:49] <lemmoner> thnx
[13:49] <zeroGravity> when i type ifconfig i get inet adrr: 127.0.0.1
[13:49] <herbmonk> lemmoner: this is the tut I used to mount my backup drive
[13:49] <lemmoner> and how do i grant some users cannot access those partitions? I guess I should play with GID, or something like that, right?
[13:49] <herbmonk> http://amateurpc.wordpress.com/2010/03/01/ubuntu-9-10-adding-and-automounting-a-second-hard-drive/
[13:50] <herbmonk> lemmoner: I'm not sure, I'v only got one account running
[13:50] <lemmoner> I have a non-root user (my daily user) to access everything. But I want different users to not access to specific partitions
[13:50] <herbmonk> if yiou figure it out pm with some details
[13:50] <etheretic1> Is there a program which compares the contents of several harddisks? Preferably gui.
[13:50] <MysteriousMan> Is there any documentation for 'apt-pkg' ?
[13:51] <izinucs> mrk_: perhaps because you're trying to use FF 2.0.. some of the libraries might be depreciated.. try a more recent version.
[13:51] <ubuntulxdeaa> I'd like to know where I can find a compilation with all the linux static builds (tar.gz) that usually work in ubuntu, for instance like filezilla.tgz
[13:51] <izinucs> ubuntulxdeaa: packages.ubuntu.com maybe
[13:51] <panos> hi there I need help with some problem i ve got with the installation
[13:52] <MysteriousMan> Is 'apt-pkg' documented or not???
[13:52] <izinucs> !ask | panos
[13:52] <ubuntulxdeaa> izinucs: aren't those .deb files?
[13:52] <izinucs> MysteriousMan: try man apt-pkg
[13:52] <mrk_> izzinucs:  it happened after upgrading to ubuntu 10.4, i can't think it is depreciated as is that FF 2.0
[13:52] <izinucs> ubuntulxdeaa: I thought source was there too.
[13:53] <MysteriousMan> izinucs: No manual entry for apt-pkg
[13:53] <MysteriousMan> It is a massive C++ library
[13:53] <izinucs> mrk_: then I have no idea
[13:53] <MysteriousMan> And it seems to be undocumented
[13:53] <ubuntulxdeaa> izinucs: are you considering the difference between a .tgz file that's a source file (which needs to be compilled) and a static build BINARY .tgz that just works out-of-the-box so to speak?
[13:54] <izinucs> MysteriousMan: if it's installed it should have a man page or info page.. if it's not installed then it won't
[13:54] <domcod> mrk_: #13 directs you to 247040. there #12 and #25 state possible workarounds.
[13:54] <Aemaeth> where can i get a download for natty?
[13:54] <izinucs> ubuntulxdeaa: just suggesting.. not sure if the link has what you need or not..
[13:54] <zeroGravity> if ubuntu doesn't show the ip adress with ifconfig is there another way to do so?
[13:55] <g00se> ziroday: or
[13:55] <ubuntulxdeaa> izinucs: thanks anyway, I'll look
[13:55] <izinucs> zeroGravity: if it doesn't show it then maybe you don't have one other than the local host address.. does that machine connect to the internet?
[13:55] <mrk_> domcod: i'm very ignorant, what are the numbers you refer to?
[13:55] <MysteriousMan> apt-get has documentation
[13:55] <MysteriousMan> but not apt-pkg
[13:55] <g00se> izinucs: The boot partition is now ext3. According to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2, dual boot could be as easy as sudo apt-get install --reinstall libdebian-installer4;sudo os-prober;sudo update-grub Surely it can't be that easy ;) ?
[13:55] <domcod> mrk_: the comment numbers
[13:55] <panos> For some reason ubuntu cannot recognise my otherwise fine 40Gb ATA 100 WD hdd connected as Primary Master but can see my older 30GB IBM as primary slave. I want to install on WD. I also got SATA RAID where MS windows is installed. This is recognised
[13:56] <zeroGravity> yes it does
[13:56] <brobinson> my system cannot recognize a dvd drive connected by usb, help please.
[13:57] <zeroGravity> it's a vbox
[13:58] <burg> hello. everytime i try to install ubuntu, it freezes just after i can see the wallpaper (before appearing language & welcome window), no matter if i try to install from cd or usb, 32bit or 64bit. i have asus x50gl notebook, nvidia geforce 8200, 3gbram ddr2, core2duo t5800 2ghz
[13:58] <izinucs> zeroGravity: if you in a vbox guest then point your mouse to the bottom right of the window at the network icon.. a little info window should flash and let you know what the ip is.. if the vbox guest session is set for NAT it will be on a different subnet then the rest of your lan.. set it to bridged for the same subnet.
[14:00] <Dr_Willis> brobinson:  plug it in. check dmesg output a few moments later. try mounting it by hand?
[14:00] <penthief> Grub seems to have changed completely -- it is now generated by grub-mkconfig. How do I set the default OS to boot into?
[14:00] <PhawZ> WelcomeBack
[14:00] <locky> čģčŹą╣
[14:00] <locky> ą▒ą╗čÅ
[14:00] <Dr_Willis> burg:  i have to use the 'nomodeset' option for my nvidia systems - untill i can get the nvidia-drivers installed.
[14:00] <izinucs> !grub2 | penthief
[14:00] <burg> Dr_Willis, how do i use that?
[14:01] <izinucs> Dr_Willis: do you put that on the kernel line at boot?
[14:01] <Dr_Willis> burg:   at the boot menu, hit a keuy. then hit F6 i think for extra options.
[14:01] <burg> Dr_Willis, after it boots, it shows a loading page (with some dots), then that purple wallpaper and that`s all
[14:01] <onaogh> brobinson, open up a console, "tail -f dmesg" and then plug in the drive, see what shows up in dmesg
[14:01] <Dr_Willis> izinucs:  installer has a menu to do it. Or edit the grub/boot menu line and add it to the end 'nomodeset'
[14:01] <burg> Dr_Willis, ubuntu doesn`t ask me anything
[14:02] <Dr_Willis> burg:  at the booting screens. first one has a man/image at the bottom.. hit space or some other key.. that takes you to the options
[14:02] <lolmaus> Hi! I'm connecting to an Ubuntu server via Putty. Up/down keys produce input like ^[[A^[[B instead of browsing console history. How do i solve this?
[14:02] <rileyp>  http://pastebin.com/Xph1HkLG can someoen look at my log and explain what is going wrong
[14:02] <izinucs> Dr_Willis: thanks.. I'll have to file that one away..
[14:02] <Dr_Willis> burg:  IF thats the issue.. you may have some other issues.
[14:02] <patriciaip> hi
[14:02] <X-Sleepy-X> burg: alternate installation disk?
[14:03] <rileyp> are the nvidia 356 drivers good to go or are ther still issues
[14:03] <Dr_Willis> lolmaus:  check the TERM variable. perhaps. it may not be set right. putty has some term settings also you may need to make sure they match up.
[14:03] <burg> X-Sleepy-X: desktop, both 32bit and 64bit
[14:03] <rileyp> 2thast 256 my bad
[14:03] <izinucs> rileyp: yes.. but use a PPA to install.
[14:03] <X-Sleepy-X> burg: try the alternate and you might get the menus Dr_Willis are talking about
[14:04] <Dr_Willis> burg:  for desktops cd's i Must use nomodeset on my 8800 and 360m nvidia card systems. alternative installer cd was text based. so it installed. but i had to use nomodeset to get it to boot to X the first time.  OR i can install the nvidia-current package from teh console when it boots the first time.
[14:04] <rileyp> so theyre good for mythtv vidpau and xbmc etc
[14:04] <Dr_Willis> X-Sleepy-X:  they are on the desktop  and alt cd's i recall.
[14:04] <Dr_Willis> Whats Weird. is that lubuntu - did NOT need the nomodeset option.. not sure why.
[14:04] <X-Sleepy-X> Dr_Willis: Ok.
[14:04] <penthief> OK thanks. I'm not sure why we need to generate a grub config. It seems like an unnecessary level of indirection (read: complication).
[14:04] <izinucs> rileyp: installing nvidia driver use to be straight forward prior to 9.04.. it's since changed due to the neuvoue driver....
[14:04] <Dr_Willis> could be that Lubntu is not using Plymouth?
[14:05] <patriciaip> i have a problem with ubuntu 10.10 on my notebook Medion Akoya E1311, someone can help ?
[14:05] <rileyp> izinucs,  I have 195.3? insatlled atm
[14:05] <X-Sleepy-X> !ask | patriciaip
[14:05] <rileyp> izinucs,  should I install the 256 driver
[14:05] <izinucs> rileyp: that's the one that comes with ubuntu throught the Hardware Drivers manager
[14:05] <patriciaip> ok
[14:05] <patriciaip> sorry
[14:06] <brobinson> onaogh: brobinson@brobinson-desktop:~$ tail -f dmesg
[14:06] <brobinson> tail: cannot open `dmesg' for reading: No such file or directory
[14:06] <rileyp> izi no when I installd lucid it was 185 or 192
[14:06] <izinucs> rileyp: 195 doesn't have vidpau..
[14:06] <Dr_Willis> brobinson:  dmesg | tail
[14:06] <Dr_Willis> brobinson:  or in a terminakl, tail -f /var/log/messages
[14:06] <patriciaip> my medion akoya e1311 works perfectly with AC adapter connected, but with battery it hangs after the login screen
[14:06] <rileyp> izinucs, Then how is myth  and xbmc playing hd 1080p video on an asrock ion
[14:07] <mamece2> hello guys ive got a lot of song in rhtyhmbox to scrobble in a queue but they are not gettin uploaded.
[14:07] <Error404NotFound> whats the dir where empathy stores settings like accounts, contacts and etc?
[14:07] <onaogh> brobinson, all logs are in /var/log/
[14:07] <lolmaus> Hi! I'm connecting to an Ubuntu server via Putty. Up/down keys produce input like ^[[A^[[B instead of browsing console history. How do i solve this? Tab not working too
[14:07] <patriciaip> i had problems with wifi and need to install realtek rtl8191se driver, now wifi works but only with AC adapter
[14:07] <haffe> lolmaus: Try shift+pgup/pgdn
[14:08] <Dr_Willis> lolmaus:  check the TERM setting (echo $TERM) and check teh putty terminal settings.  are you using screen  over ssh ?
[14:08] <izinucs> rileyp: not sure that vidpau enables or disables 1080p playback.. I don't have an answer for that.. maybe I'm wrong about the 195 driver
[14:08] <mamece2> lastfm for ubuntu has not the queue feature :((( BIGFAIL
[14:08] <lolmaus> Dr_Willis, $TERM is xterm. Not using screen, but i'm familiar with its hotkeys.
[14:08] <HaerdenC> updated today to 10.10 ... everything working out of the box!
[14:09] <lolmaus> haffe, that works
[14:09] <HaerdenC> good job for the ubuntu team as ussual
[14:10] <rileyp> izinucs, nvidia-195-libvdpau is installed
[14:10] <|Gaijin|> anyone having problems with 10.10 reducing your in and outgoing traffic to less then half after upgrading from 10.04?
[14:10] <patriciaip> netbook Medion Akoya E1311, ubuntu 10.10, wifi didnt work so i install driver from realtek for rtl8191se, now all works fine with AC adapter, but with battery it hangs after the login screen...
[14:10] <builtrs> How to use man command?
[14:10] <TomV-415> when I use ubuntu 10.04 to create a usb Live version, I'm wondering if I can run the update manager on the USB stick, and get upgrades.. it doesn't seem to work for me, but I thought i did this in the past..
[14:11] <izinucs> rileyp: great.. nice to know..
[14:11] <burg> Dr_Willis, thanks, i`m going to try it. but what, exactly, this option (nomodeset) means?
[14:11] <TomV-415> Is it possible to use Update manager when Ubuntu is installed on USB?
[14:11] <izinucs> builtrs: man <package name>
[14:11] <X-Sleepy-X> !patience | patriciaip
[14:11] <patriciaip> ok, sorry :-s
[14:12] <har> hello
[14:12] <rileyp> izinucs, There isnt a 256 libvdpau in synaptic available though so Im thinking the 256 package libvdpau may still be broken
[14:12] <greamer> damn cheese.  i wish it tasted better with chilli.
[14:13] <greamer> chillio.  that means... uh.
[14:14] <izinucs> rileyp: no.. they will not be upgrading the driver anytime soon.. if you want it then google for the nvidia PPA.. install that repo, refresh and then it should be available in the package manager as "Nvidia-current" or something similar.
[14:15] <builtrs> I just want to know whether which package was installed, but I only know dpkg command and cannot use its option because I didn't understand it from man command.
[14:15] <greamer> builtrs: man command huh?  that's gotta be an ace in the hole.  follow the white rabbit.
[14:16] <ylmf2008> ?
[14:18] <nemchik_> i am having an issue - when booting up my computer i am taken to a terminal login with no GUI, i had the nvidia-current drivers installed from the xorg PPA (because i needed them during beta) i tried apt-get remove nvidia* and dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but no luck so far, how can i get some kind of gui back?
[14:18] <builtrs>  greamer: What are you meaning?
[14:19] <greamer> i'm clueless.  i saw on the news that a storm was coming.  Didn't know what it meant.
[14:19] <centos-user-az> i have some problems who can help me?
[14:19] <SaRy> nemchik_, thats a known issue .. some people facing it.
[14:19] <nemchik_> centos-user-az: ask your question and if someone knows they will reply
[14:20] <SaRy> centos-user-az, please ask , someone might help.
[14:20] <centos-user-az> i can't install a web server correctly, plz help me
[14:20] <nibbler_> centos-user-az, aptitude install apache2 ;-)
[14:20] <TomV-415> I found the answer to my own question, it turns out the 'standard' gui way to create a Live USB stick will not allow updates, since the os in in  compressed non-writeable file, but there's another way to do it.http://askubuntu.com/questions/2674/persistent-installation-to-usb-stick
[14:20] <kv10t> anyone tell me why Brasero error when using ISO files (more than one). http://pastebin.com/MsnNwS1m
[14:20] <nemchik_> SaRy: ok... i have used that blue screen looking step-by-step whenever i am told xserver crashed, but i don't see that this time
[14:20] <greamer> =|[14:21] <nibbler_> TomV-415, i didnt follow any of your problem so far, but the link sounds interesting :-) thanks
[14:21] <builtrs> greamer: hard to understand
[14:21] <knightstalker> Hello,I have a weird DNS issue(still...),The issue is that I can not view some sites as the dns seems to point to another IP(something which starts with 32.1.*.*),While other OSes on the same connection resolve the correct IP,what might be the matter,Its a long time I have this problem...and in the new ver its still not resolved
[14:22] <TomV-415> the problem was how to install ubunut 10.10 on a usb so I can update it with drivers, patches, etc.  standard start up disk creator doesn't seem to do that, even though you can set it up to save data to the usb drive.
[14:22] <mamece2> noone ever help with rhythmbox, im uninstalling it
[14:22] <TomV-415> I got a cheap 8gig usb drive and want to use it for playing with 10.10
[14:23] <centos-user-az> my issue is on installing a web server i have installed but can't use with php correctly
[14:23] <Sean93> how do i format my new internal hard drive? and what do i format it to?
[14:23] <ZykoticK9> TomV-415, you might want to consider doing a "real" install onto your USB (on the last page of install don't forget to choose Advanced and move GRUB onto the USB)
[14:23] <tensorpudding> Sean93: Open the Disk Utility and put a partition on it. Then it'll be ready for use.
[14:23] <izinucs> centos-user-az: sudo tasksel will bring up a menu.. choose LAMP . and it will install apache php and mysql all at the same time
[14:23] <VCoolio> Sean93: with gparted to ext3 or ext4
[14:24] <ksk_> can any one tell me how can we install the firefox 4 beta in ubuntu latest version please
[14:24] <tensorpudding> Sean93: Disk Utility is under System -> Administration, by the way
[14:24] <centos-user-az> izinucs: thank u
[14:24] <Sean93> what is the difference between ext3 and 4?
[14:24] <TomV-415> ZykoticK9: that sounds like exactly what I need.  thanks, it was not so clear to me from the link I posted, but your suggestion makes it a bit clearer.
[14:24] <izinucs> Sean93: 1 :) ...
[14:24] <Sean93> and what size does the partition need to be? its a 1TB drive
[14:24] <ksk_> any one is ther
[14:24] <ksk_> ?
[14:25] <ksk_> please help me
[14:25] <SaRy> ksk_, http://helpdeskgeek.com/linux-tips/install-firefox-4-beta-in-ubuntu-10-04/
[14:25] <tensorpudding> Sean93: ext4 is ext3 plus some extra features. You can use either though, it probably won't really affect you much.
[14:25] <izinucs> Sean93: if this is a fresh drive you're installing to you should setup 3 partitions
[14:25] <ksk_> lemme try bro
[14:25] <ksk_> Thanks
[14:25] <izinucs> Sean93: one for root "/"... one for /swap and one for /home where your data lives.
[14:25] <centos-user-az> izinucs: but here is one problem again terminal notifies me that tasksel command not found
[14:26] <Sean93> what size do i make them?
[14:26] <centos-user-az> izinucs: what can I do now?
[14:26] <izinucs> Sean93: root= 8-12gigs .. /swap=2x Ram .. /home the rest.
[14:26] <tensorpudding> Sean93: swap should be as big as the amount of RAM you have
[14:26] <SaRy> izinucs, exactly .. partitions never been easer then with Gparted.
[14:26] <zatan> hi is anybody able to help me ? I dont have sound in firefox , its saying ALSA lib confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card '0'
[14:27] <izinucs> centos-user-az: they may have taken it out.. sudo apt-get install php mysql
[14:27] <tensorpudding> Sean93: assuming you want to use hibernation, it can be smaller if you don't want to, but it should be at least as big as half of your RAM
[14:28] <soreau> Firefox is having major problems lately. Seems like a memory leak or something
[14:28] <centos-user-az> izinucs: i have installed but can't use correctly also i have changed httpd.conf to use with php
[14:28] <listerdl> hey all - if a do terminal command dd (duplicate disk) does the receiving hard drive that i am cloning to have to be the SAME size? Thanks
[14:28] <greamer> yes... everyone is jacked up.
[14:28] <pelmen> guys,yesterdays update broke my gdm, now buntu loads only into console login
[14:28] <soreau> anyone have issues with firefox going slow, consuming many resources and just acting buggy?
[14:28] <builtrs> How to find a package was installed or not?
[14:28] <soreau> I have to restart it often on lucid and maverick
[14:28] <Sean93> i bought a 1TB spinpoint F3 to replace my current boot drive whice has ubuntu and windows XP on it. how do i change the drives?
[14:28] <soreau> builtrs: dpkg -l|grep <pkg-name>
[14:29] <nepalinux> hi all, I am having problem with boot process...when I boot and select from the GRUB bootloader, it just blinks and hangs at terminal... I removed "quiet splash" and found that it was stuck at the point "xxx pages non-shared"...I have low experience in using ubuntu so can anyone give me the right direction for this problem?
[14:29] <centos-user-az> how to install LAMP on ubuntu, who can help me?
[14:29] <soreau> For example, I go to open a file in firefox but the window does not display the contents until I restart firefox
[14:29] <soreau> and it's going slow
[14:29] <izinucs> Sean93: use clonezilla or partimage to mirror the partitions.. clonezilla might work better for you.. there's also dd
[14:29] <builtrs> soreau thanks
[14:29] <soreau> builtrs: np
[14:29] <patriciaip> notebook medion akoya e1311, ubuntu 10.10, wifi rtl8191sevb with realtek linux drivers, works perfectly with ac adapter, hangs after login screen with battery, any idea ?
[14:30] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: install tasksel first
[14:30] <greamer> quick... packet sniffers.
[14:30] <listerdl> partimage does like ext4 though - apparently?
[14:30] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: i can't install
[14:30] <Sean93> izinucs: the drive im replacing is 80gig does that make a difference?
[14:30] <greamer> ifconfig eth0 131.278.92.187
[14:30] <izinucs> Sean93: the problem you'll have is the uuid's used in fstab to mount the partitions will end up being different.. you'll have to manually make those changes using a live cd.
[14:30] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: you can't? what version of Ubuntu do you have?
[14:31] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: 10.10
[14:31] <tensorpudding> Sean93: another option is to reinstall Ubuntu and Windows XP, and copy files over
[14:31] <izinucs> Sean93: personally I'd mirror the windows install onto the new drive and then just reinstall ubuntu since it doesn't take very long..
[14:31] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: tasksel is available for 10.10
[14:31] <mamece2> is there any chat dedicated to rhythmbox?
[14:32] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: it's in the software center
[14:32] <burg> Dr_Willis: it worked, thank you, i am texting from ubuntu live cd
[14:32] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: ok thank u now i'm installing

[14:32] <mamece2> is there any chat dedicated to rhythmbox?
[14:32] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: after that what should i do?
[14:32] <SaRy> pelmen, Firstly make sure you have everything installed, as it seems like it is not picking up gnome
[14:33] <rohith> Hi can anyone tell me how to restart gnome-network-manager
[14:33] <Sean93> ok to i need to partition the drive and format it? or do i just install XP and Ubuntu?
[14:33] <rohith> ??
[14:33] <burg> i have another problem now: i have 30gb of unpartitioned disk space, and i want that whole space for ubuntu. previous versions had this option, but i can`t see that now. is there any option, except making the partitions manually?

[14:33] <rohith> ?
[14:33] <McPels> Hi. Can I use ubuntu 10.04 repositories for ubuntu 10.10?
[14:33] <nepalinux> hi all, I am having problem with boot process...when I boot and select from the GRUB bootloader, it just blinks and hangs at terminal... I removed "quiet splash" and found that it was stuck at the point "xxx pages non-shared"...I have low experience in using ubuntu so can anyone give me the right direction for this problem?
[14:33] <Sean93> rohith: what is dat?
[14:33] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: sudo tasksel install lamp-server
[14:33] <izinucs> Sean93: if you use clonezilla you can mirror XP to the new drive.. then do your fresh install of ubuntu and partition during that process.
[14:34] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: that will install apache 2, php 5, and it should be ready to go
[14:34] <jshmoe24> Can anyone help with getting compiz fusion to work on ubuntu 10.10?
[14:34] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: thank u! :)

[14:34] <centos-user-az> nepalinux: thank u!
[14:34] <Sean93> izinucs: can i just mirror the whole drive? will partitions and formatting be correct?
[14:35] <SaRy> rohith, sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[14:35] <nepalinux> centos-user-az: np

[14:35] <kysan> hello
[14:35] <lovel>  /msg NickServ identify ylb803harry
[14:35] <izinucs> Sean93: partitions and formatting will be the same.. and you may end up with extra space on the new hd that isn't partitioned or formatted..
[14:35] <nepalinux> anyone to help me regarding boot process freezing up in my ubuntu 10.04?
[14:35] <nemchik_> im back, same problem as before, i cannot seem to start X on my desktop, it looks like my xorg.conf is calling for the nvidia driver which is not installed, the one available to me through apt-get seems to have some issues (which is how i landed at the terminal in the first place) im currently booted from a livecd (or rather liveusb) and it dont seem to have an xorg.conf here - would removing the xorg.conf from my main drive cause

[14:36] <onaogh> lolz
[14:36] <jshmoe24> Can someone help me when go to visual effects tab to change compiz it just gets stuck.
[14:36] <izinucs> nemchik_: if you have a populated xorg just rename it xorg.conf.backup and then sudo service gdm start or startx to see if the gui will come up
[14:36] <nemchik_> p.s. im using ubuntu 10.10 with an nvidia graphics card and i have the xorg ppa installed (i think that's what it's called)

[14:37] <McPels> Hi. Can I use ubuntu 10.04 repositories for ubuntu 10.10?
[14:38] <aeon-ltd>  McPels yes, but why would you want outdated software?
[14:38] <nemchik_> uh... whats the command line for rename? lol
[14:38] <erUSUL> McPels: no
[14:38]  * g00se thanks all
[14:38] <erUSUL> nemchik_: mv oldfile newfile
[14:38] <ZykoticK9> ruby_on_tails1, no Shockwave for Linux i'm affraid "(
[14:38] <izinucs> nemchik_: sudo mv xorg.conf xorg.conf.backup
[14:38] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: go to where it says LAMP server, hit space, then hit tab and enter
[14:38] <nemchik_> ok mv, gotcha
[14:38] <ruby_on_tails1> ZykoticK9: then how to play flash games ?
[14:38] <ruby_on_tails1> ZykoticK9: it says plugin reqd
[14:39] <centos-user-az>  tensorpudding: clear thank u
[14:39] <ZykoticK9> ruby_on_tails1, "flash" shouldn't be an issue - "shockwave" is
[14:39] <mamece2> is there any chat dedicated to rhythmbox?
[14:39] <izinucs> ZykoticK9: sure shockwave is available..
[14:39] <zeroGravity> can somebody suggest some other ways to find a ip adress in ubuntu?
[14:39] <rohith> nemechick see man rename
[14:39] <ruby_on_tails1> ZykoticK9: any substitute for shockwave ?
[14:39] <haffe> zeroGravity: ifconfig
[14:39] <zeroGravity> it doesn't work
[14:39] <ZykoticK9> ruby_on_tails1, not that i'm aware of - perhaps ask izinucs?
[14:39] <izinucs> ruby_on_tails1: flash is availble and shockwave..
[14:39] <ruby_on_tails1> izinucs: http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/otherversions/ no linux version
[14:39] <ruby_on_tails1> izinucs: is it known by some other name ?
[14:40] <rohith> zerogravity right click on network manager icon and click information therre you can see
[14:40] <izinucs> ruby_on_tails1: hang on..
[14:40] <ruby_on_tails1> izinucs: hanging
[14:40] <Sean93> does MiB stand for megabytes?
[14:40] <zeroGravity> i got this: www.pastebin.org%2F253940&h=e999f
[14:40] <JameZ7> i'd like to know that too, i like rhythm box
[14:41] <zeroGravity> i'm in a virtual box!
[14:41] <aeon-ltd> Sean93: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mebibyte
[14:41] <zeroGravity> where is that network manager?
[14:41] <ruby_on_tails1> Sean93: mission impossible beta maybe

[14:41] <geez> Howdy ubuntu bunch, I recently had to create a new account and switch to using it (could no longer log into the account). I copied all of my $HOME directories including: Document, Downloads, etc. Now, I want all of my old Tomboy Notes. Where are they stored? How to xfer? :-D
[14:42] <mamece2> anyone knows a good music player that can scrobble right?
[14:42] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: how can i edit permissions?
[14:42] <izinucs> ruby_on_tails1: google flash squared for the latest beta which there is also a 64 bit version for linux available.. also if you haven't already tried it use the flash package inthe repo.. sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[14:42] <tensorpudding> mamece2: practically all of them
[14:42] <ForgeAus> whats scrobble?
[14:42] <tensorpudding> mamece2: exaile, banshee, rhythmbox, decibel, amarok
[14:42] <tas> hello, I downloaded Steel storm, its a game, and its .tar.gz format, I have extracted, but how do I really install it?
[14:43] <Friar> anyone know about openvpn? I keep getting a connection time out error when trying to connect.
[14:43] <DarkSkull> !list
[14:43] <mamece2> tensorpudding rhythmbox get all the track queue and dont upload them to lastfm
[14:43] <tensorpudding> mamece2: they all have audioscrobbler/last.fm plugins available
[14:43] <DarkSkull> 0list
[14:43] <ForgeAus> imho best media player is vlc
[14:43] <xiamx> Does anyone know a distro's livecd that enable ssh after boot? or is it possible to personalize ubuntu to do that?
[14:43] <ForgeAus> plays just about everything I've ever thrown at it
[14:43] <ruby_on_tails1> izinucs: installing flashpluginnonfree
[14:43] <SaRy> geez, They're stored in ~/.tomboy as ".note" files.
[14:43] <tensorpudding> mamece2: i recommend exaile, because rhythmbox is a load of fail
[14:43] <mamece2> tensorpudding but rhythmbox is really messy scrobbling
[14:43] <anoman273> Hey why would I want to get ubuntu over slackware?
[14:43] <izinucs> ruby_on_tails1: restart FF after that
[14:44] <ruby_on_tails1> izinucs: ok
[14:44] <ForgeAus> anoman273 you wouldn't you'd want kubuntu instead :)
[14:44] <LjL> !ot | anoman273
[14:44] <geez> Thnx SaRy :-D
[14:44] <ForgeAus> or PCLinuxOS but personally I prefer kbuntu
[14:44] <tensorpudding> anoman273: there's tons of articles on the Internet about distros, but this channel is not really a good place to discuss that
[14:44] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: permissions?
[14:44] <izinucs> ForgeAus: kubuntu is nice.. I have that on the desktop.. gnome on lappy
[14:44] <ForgeAus> is slackware even current... ?
[14:44] <DarkSkull> does it exist a ftp cracker without dictionary?
[14:44] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: yeah permissions
[14:44] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: which ones?
[14:45] <DarkSkull> to me?
[14:45] <ForgeAus> izinucs at least it doesn't feel like linux with KDE slapped on top... feels far more... integrated
[14:45] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: i can't edit a file without sudo
[14:45] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: chmod is used for editing them in general, but given the discussion we just had, i'm going to guess you want to change the permissions of the /var/www folder
[14:45] <DarkSkull> you know?
[14:45] <ruby_on_tails1> izinucs: still shows additional plugins required
[14:45] <izinucs> ForgeAus: true..
[14:45] <mamece2> tensorpudding so i dont need to dl the lastfm app?
[14:45] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: which might not be a good plan for security reasons
[14:45] <izinucs> ruby_on_tails1: what site are you going to ?
[14:45] <ZykoticK9> ruby_on_tails1, what game are you trying?  link?
[14:45] <tensorpudding> mamece2: no, not at all
[14:45] <ruby_on_tails1> izinucs: http://www.zapak.com/Sewer-Run-games-play-587-2.php
[14:45] <ruby_on_tails1> ZykoticK9: ^^
[14:46] <ForgeAus> PCLinuxOS is nice, has lotsa stuff out of the box... but it feels like KDE is slapped ontop of it, not sure about suse, not sure about some other distros...
[14:46] <ForgeAus> Mandriva might be ok
[14:46] <ZykoticK9> ruby_on_tails1, i just get the "missing plugin" as well
[14:46] <ruby_on_tails1> ZykoticK9: :(
[14:46] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: clear but here are some problems i can't create any folder inside any folder only with sudo i can
[14:46] <ForgeAus> I'd doubt if Debian really does the integration thing either...
[14:46] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: which folder are you trying to create?
[14:46] <ForgeAus> Gentoo maybe but you have to do that manually
[14:47] <Dr_Willis> 'distro of the month club' :)
[14:47] <nemchik> okay i am back on my desktop with no nvidia drivers, i purged the x updates ppa but now i have no options in the 'additional drivers' to install my nvidia drivers
[14:47] <Dr_Willis> nemchik:  you could isntall the nvidia-current package by hand.
[14:47] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: in Linux by default folders under /usr, /var etc. are not writable by regular users, for security reasons.
[14:47] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: for example in /usr/local only in terminal with sudo  i do
[14:47] <ForgeAus> lol DrWillis...
[14:47] <C-Otto> hi there
[14:47] <Dr_Willis> centos-user-az:  thats how its supposed to be.
[14:47] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: why do you want to make folders in /usr/local?
[14:47] <C-Otto> i am an administrator for a large mirror, is there a specific channel for related problems?
[14:48] <nemchik> Dr_Willis, is that provided by ubuntu repo?
[14:48] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: ok clear but i think in solaris os it's possible right?
[14:48] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: i'm fairly sure it's not in
[14:48] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: Solaris*
[14:48] <erUSUL> !mirror
[14:48] <izinucs> ruby_on_tails1: keep in mind some flash sites also make use of windows technology as well.. so they all won't work.  I tried 3 browsers and no go on any of them..
[14:49] <mamece2> tensorpudding how can i dl the last exaile version?
[14:49] <ruby_on_tails1> izinucs: hmm ok :(
[14:49] <Sean93> izinucs: what should my partitions be? primary, ect.
[14:49] <tensorpudding> mamece2: exaile's in the software center
[14:49] <izinucs> Sean93: for the new ubuntu install?
[14:49] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: for fast learning any linux dist what should i do?
[14:49] <Sean93> yes
[14:50] <mamece2> tensorpudding that is not the last version, thats 0.3.2 , in the web page theres a 0.3.3
[14:50] <fewboo> When I right click on a folder I do not have the encryption option
[14:50] <izinucs> Sean93: root "/" 8-12 gigs .... swap 1gig or 2x ram (if you want hibernate/sleep) .. the rest for /home
[14:50] <tensorpudding> mamece2: it's likely that 0.3.3 isn't packaged for Ubuntu yet.
[14:51] <mamece2> tensorpudding i would like to dl the last version, do u know how can i do that?
[14:51] <tensorpudding> mamece2: you can install it by hand from their site, but that's rarely a fun time
[14:51] <Sean93> izinucs: i made them that size, but i made them all primary partitions, is that ok?
[14:51] <nikola> centos-user-az, there is no fast learning..
[14:51] <burg> when i try to create partitions for ubuntu, i create the first one from the free space, and after that the remaining free space is marked as unusable and i can`t create any more partitons. how to fix that?
[14:51] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: do u have any suggestion?
[14:51] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: if you want to learn in general about permissions and that kind of stuff, there's tons of books out there, and guides on the internet
[14:51] <centos-user-az> nikola: i know but than ever i meant so
[14:52] <izinucs> Sean93: sure.. if you're not going to use all the space on the drive then you can only have 3 primary partitions and the 4th *must* be extended.. then you'll be able to add more if needed.
[14:52] <nepalinux> I am so much bored with my ubuntu freezing at boot time.. :( ..was expecting some help from guys here :(...the boot just stucks at "xxxxx pages non-shared"...I can't figure out where the problem is...
[14:52] <kaco> hello
[14:52] <Sean93> izinucs: i'm confused
[14:53] <Sean93> i thought i only need 3 partitions
[14:53] <izinucs> Sean93: that's all I mentioned.. but if you have windows then you need 4 total.. 1 for windows and 3 for ubuntu
[14:53] <Sean93> and the ubuntu ones should all be primary?
[14:53] <izinucs> Sean93: if you use the entire drive then you're good to go.. all can be primary partitions..
[14:53] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: i'm trying to think of a good one in general, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SystemAdministration might be good
[14:54] <Kaco> where am i?
[14:54] <julie> Salut J'ai un Serveur IBM x-series 206 8482-2su Avec une carte Vid├®o Int├®gr├® ATI Radeon 7000_RV100.Sous Suse Linux La carte video S'installe parfaitement duran l'instalation ,Sous ubuntu jai plein de Bug D'affichage mon ordinateur n'est pas fluide le d├®placement des fen├¬tres est saccad├® .ubuntu ne me propose pas de pilote de p├®ripherique ,merci
[14:54] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: most of what's in there is generally applicable to Unix-like operating systems in general
[14:54] <tensorpudding> !fr | julie
[14:54] <mamece2> this is real weird i cannot navigate but in google and have this chat, why my internet so slow?
[14:54] <izinucs> Kaco: you're in the interwebs..
[14:54] <allguru> any good application to convert videos and compress them etc etc... ? , thanks for the help! :)
[14:55] <ZykoticK9> Kaco, Slovack Republic IRC says ;)  your in the Ubuntu support channel.
[14:55] <domcod> allguru: mencoder, ffmpeg
[14:55] <allguru> like " total video convertor in windows" ...
[14:55] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: thx, and i installed lamp but it's not working properly i've created index.php i try to call it but it notifies me that there is no such file
[14:55] <izinucs> allguru: handbreak.fr
[14:55] <Techathy> on a software raid with jfs or xfs would it be a good idea to have an external journal on an SSD?
[14:55] <allguru> domcod: trying them
[14:55] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: did you create index.php in the right place? it needs to be in the web root as specified by apache
[14:56] <allguru> izinucs: domain = parked !
[14:56] <mamece2> its there any way to uninstall and reinstall the internet controllers? its so danm slow
[14:56] <izinucs> allguru: google handbreak .. it should come up
[14:56] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: yeah i've created in the correct place in ../htdocs but it can't read it
[14:56] <Techathy> I'm specifically thinking about large sequential writes with RAID5 or RAID6
[14:56] <Kaco> ZykoticK9 oh cool, what is slovack? ;-)
[14:56] <tensorpudding> centos-user-az: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/ would be good to consult in the future for problems
[14:56] <fewboo> I created a new pgp key and then I wanted to encrypt some files but I could not do that because there is not encrypt option when I right click on a folder
[14:57] <allguru> izinucs: handbrake and not handbreak ! :)
[14:57] <allguru> =)
[14:57] <izinucs> allguru: sorry :/ .. bleary eyed
[14:58] <Kaco> linux sucks but ubuntu seems to get better over time
[14:58] <allguru> izinucs: http://handbrake.fr/downloads.php <<< only for ubuntu 9 :(
[14:58] <nepalinux> centos-user-az: the index.php might not be in the folder where it is expected to be...what's the path where you created index.php?
[14:58]  * izinucs is rebooting into his just finished upgrade to 10.10.. fingers crossed. this has never worked in the past.. 
[14:59] <burg> when i try to create partitions for ubuntu, i create the first one from the free space, and after that the remaining free space is marked as unusable and i can`t create any more partitons. how to fix that?
[14:59] <centos-user-az> nepallinux: i have created it in the webserver's htdocs directory so it's right but it can't read it
[15:00] <nepalinux> I am not an expert in this regard but httpd.conf defines the root folder, isn't it? is it having the correct config?
[15:00] <Techathy> burg:  just a thought but would you be making a 4th primary partition?
[15:00] <mamece2> how can i reinstall internet controllers? this is very much slow and when i run a live cd internets normal
[15:00] <onaogh> burg, how many total paritions are there on the hard drive, what is the size of partition you made, and how much is left on free space
[15:01] <centos-user-az> nepallinux: yeah i've also changed that file to use php but okkk may be i've typed wrong mime-type for using php which mime type should be used do you know?
[15:01] <onaogh> mamece2, how u are certain that it is the network stacks that is slowing your internet ?
[15:01] <burg> Techathy, onaogh : i have on this hdd c:, d: and e: for windows (having about 215 gb from my 250gb hdd), and 30+ free gb
[15:02] <lelamal> hi all, I want to unsubscribe from bug #1, but I can't. everytime I get an error: "The following errors were encountered: * Server error, please contact an administrator. OOPS ID:OOPS-1751K1229". who should I contact?
[15:02] <onaogh> burg, you can't have more than 4 primary partitions, so if the first 3 is primary, u can create 1  more primary, and then a logical container and more partitions inside it
[15:03] <nepalinux> centos-user-az: I don't think its due to MIME mismatch... if it can't access index.php, it means there's no index.php file in the root folder
[15:04] <nepalinux> what's your absolute path?
[15:04] <burg> onaogh, how can i check if those are primary? those are windows partitions. i had those before, with ubuntu 10.04 and 9.10. but back then the ubuntu installer created the linux partitions automatically
[15:04] <Russel> ciao
[15:04] <Russel> ubu ci sei?
[15:05] <xiamx> there's a software that let you set many kinds of notification/alert for new mail, new rss, website update... can anyone remind me its name?
[15:05] <Techathy> Assuming the first 3 are primary partitions you have to make the 4th primary partition a logical partition container & then make the linux partitions (5 up) in that
[15:05] <onaogh> burg, ubuntu setup can create required partitions automatecally on the free space, if you go with that option u should have no problem
[15:05] <centos-user-az> thx everyone who helped me
[15:05] <nepalinux> centos-user-az: you made it work?
[15:05] <burg> onaogh: i can`t find that option in ubuntu 10.10
[15:06] <mamece2> grghaestjstrjiskotidtiytijrujsrujstrustruhfxguj
[15:06] <centos-user-az> nepallinux: I'll try to solve it, now eating time :)
[15:06] <onaogh> burg, i think it is there when u start "Install" from live session
[15:06] <Techathy> How you'd do that will depend on the way you install, as install server manually using parted I can't help with the specifics
[15:06] <onaogh> mamece2, ?
[15:07] <Techathy> as I install sory
[15:07] <burg> onaogh: if i start install from live session, i can see that option?
[15:07] <onaogh> yes, as you go through the setup process, it will question you on where would u like to install ubuntu
[15:08] <onaogh> just make sure you have some free space for it (un partitioned space)
[15:08] <mamece2> see?? something is happening
[15:08] <onaogh> mamece2, ?
[15:08] <burg> i did that before, my options were: along other os, erase hdd or manually add partitions
[15:08] <jiohdi> I am having a problem running gadmin-proFTPd ... first it told me that there were no cert.pem or key.pem files... I generated those using openssl but now it tell me that it wants a passphrase and passphrase does not match and wrong passphrase... help
[15:08] <burg> onaogh: and i have more than 30gb of free space
[15:09] <onaogh> burg, and the third option. there are 3 options, erase whole hdd, install along side with another OS, and choose manually (advanced)
[15:09] <onaogh> burg, u choose along with other OS
[15:10] <jiohdi> burg, if you unformate that 30gb, the system will find it and ask if you want to put it there
[15:10] <onaogh> burg, i can also use choose partitions manually if u select third option
[15:10] <abaddon> hi, what debian version is Jaunty compatible with?
[15:10] <jiohdi> unformat even
[15:10] <onaogh> abaddon, i dont know but i guess all
[15:10] <yapsol> what's Jaunty's kernel version?
[15:11] <tensorpudding> Debian releases are not generally compatible with Ubuntu releases
[15:12] <yapsol> i was going to say that, but from the kernel version the question can be answered
[15:12] <yapsol> more or less
[15:12] <tensorpudding> Jaunty was released around the same time as Debian Lenny I think (spring 2009)
[15:12] <domcod> abaddon: what kind of compatibility?
[15:13] <mamece2> onaogh its not the network because when i run a live cd internet has its normal speed
[15:13] <ActionParsnip> !debian | abaddon
[15:13] <jiohdi> kernel version 2.6.28-11 for the jackalope
[15:13] <abaddon> hm thanks, trying to figure out an modem issue but the only references are on ubuntu and a package udev-extras that doesnt exist on debian
[15:13] <abaddon> thanks, ill try to figure it out
[15:14] <tensorpudding> lenny uses 2.6.28 also
[15:14] <yapsol> try to compile the vanilla kernel on your system, abaddon
[15:14] <onaogh> mamece2, try to bring network intereface down and up again
[15:14] <GHH> I need a simple help to edit Ubuntu
[15:15] <ActionParsnip> GHH: ask away
[15:15] <yapsol> i think debian lenny uses kernel 2.6.26
[15:15] <abaddon> yapsol: i dont want to do it each time a security bug gets fixed :-) i use to though
[15:15] <tensorpudding> err, i misread, it is 2.6.26
[15:15] <enriqueaf> Hi everyon,have anyone tried to run vino in Ubuntu Netbook Remix?
[15:15] <GHH> I am trying to add a directory(success) and trying to change the Ubuntu name
[15:16] <ActionParsnip> GHH: do you mean the host name of the system?
[15:16] <GHH> ActionParsnip, yeah and trying to add my own name
[15:16] <ActionParsnip> !hostname | GHH
[15:16] <burg> onaogh: there are my partitions : http://www.mediafire.com/imageview.php?quickkey=kqp3piuov5jgpmh&thumb=5
[15:16] <tensorpudding> GHH: you can change the hostname by editing /etc/hostname
[15:16] <Goldline> im getting this error whilst dowloading packages: GPG error: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY
[15:17] <LjL> !gpgerr | Goldline
[15:17] <ActionParsnip> GHH: open BOTH files before making changes to either
[15:17] <atDebug> G'Day
[15:17] <atDebug> How do I measure memory usage on a single program (that I wrote in C++ & compiled with g++)? - NOTE: The program runs for less than a second
[15:17] <GHH> oh thanks
[15:17] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: what is the hex key and i'll give a command to use
[15:17] <Goldline> or through software sources isnt?
[15:17] <Sean93> you can have BTFS on linux?
[15:17] <Goldline> can i add the url in software sources?
[15:17] <Sean93> NTFS*
[15:17] <GHH> ActionParsnip, boot jpg?
[15:17] <atDebug> Sean93: Yes you can!
[15:17] <ActionParsnip> Sean93: its offered in Maverick
[15:18] <atDebug> Sean93: As of 10.10 it's supported by the Ubuntu kernel
[15:18] <tensorpudding> Sean93: yeah, using ntfs-3g
[15:18] <Sean93> what is better nTFS or ext4?
[15:18]  * atDebug was reading the wiki about it a few hours ago
[15:18] <atDebug> Sean93: ext4
[15:18] <tensorpudding> Sean93: ext4
[15:18] <onaogh> burg, u have 3 primary partitions as i can see from that pic, that is why u can create 1 more primary partition, which u dont need, just lunch the install wizard from live session, when asked for partition selection, choose the third option (choose partitions manually) then ..
[15:18] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: if you give the long hex key in the output I can give the command to add the key
[15:18] <atDebug> Beat ya to it :P
[15:18] <Dr_Willis> Sean93:  for what job?
[15:18] <ZykoticK9> Sean93, apples and oranges -- ext is linux, NTFS is windows
[15:18] <ActionParsnip> Sean93: ntfs is pretty poor
[15:18] <yapsol> use ntfs only if you need to share a partition with windows
[15:18] <atDebug> ZykoticK9: Apples are still better
[15:18] <christoz> hello, i'm trying to edit a file in var/www via scp with komodo edit, the problem is that i'm not privileged, what i did was to add my username to the root group, but still cannot write there anyhting, please i need some help here, thanks in advance
[15:18] <tensorpudding> Sean93: the handling of NTFS on Ubuntu doesn't mesh well with Windows ACL's, it's kind of a pain
[15:19] <yapsol> there is no software able to mount ext4 partitions on windows
[15:19] <burg> onaogh: then what?
[15:19] <napster> I don't want to use "#dpkg -i x.deb"! what should be the command which will download and install all the dependencies along with this package?
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: not yet
[15:19] <onaogh> burg, you can use the 30 gb free unpartitioned space to install linux, first .. wait i am writing
[15:19] <enriqueaf> I refrase my question, does anyone knows why in ubuntu netbook the vino-server doesn't run(checked with ps aux) ??
[15:19] <atDebug> yapsol: Use ext3 if you want to share with windows, they do have a driver afterall
[15:19] <erUSUL> !software | napster apt-get install
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: microsoft could code it in, the definitions are available, they just dont
[15:19] <yapsol> i know, ext2ifs and the other one
[15:19] <Dr_Willis> I found the ext2/3 driver for windows to be a little flakey. but ive not used it in ages
[15:19] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: funny how linux can read and write to NTFS yet microsoft OSes don't go the other way
[15:19] <yapsol> but, for *now* it isn't possible
[15:19] <napster> erUSUL: The package x.deb is not in repository
[15:19] <Sean93> I just got a new harddrive, I want to install ubuntu and XP on it. how do i do it?
[15:19] <jiohdi> christoz: you can open a terminal, sudo -s and password yourself to superuser, then open the edit program and you will have root access control
[15:20] <onaogh> burg, first make swap partition, to do so, click on free space, click add, choose swap from drop down menu, the size of the swap better be twice of your ram
[15:20] <Kofte> hi
[15:20] <yapsol> Sean93, install windows first
[15:20] <atDebug> hi\
[15:20] <napster> erUSUL: But I downloaded it from somewhere else
[15:20] <atDebug> !hi
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> GHH: what do you mean "boo jpg" ?
[15:20] <burg> onaogh: swap must be logical?
[15:20] <GHH> ActionParsnip, boot image
[15:20] <tensorpudding> NTFS support is more cross-platform than any other filesystem outside of the ones commonly used for portable media
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> napster: then you can use:   sudo dpkg -i file.deb
[15:20] <atDebug> burg: Nope, but why would you have it primary?
[15:20] <yapsol> heh
[15:20] <jiohdi> christoz: open the editor by typing its name on the terminal line as super user to clarify
[15:20] <onaogh> yes
[15:20] <yapsol> ntfs is not a bad file system
[15:20] <ActionParsnip> GHH: i thought you want to change the system host name?
[15:21] <atDebug> tensorpudding: exFAT    xD
[15:21] <burg> atDebug: so logical is ok?
[15:21] <onaogh> burg, in ur case yes
[15:21] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: it fragments like crazy
[15:21] <atDebug> burg: Yes
[15:21] <Sean93> yapsol:  how do i set the partitions, ext/
[15:21] <GHH> ActionParsnip, yeah that solved
[15:21] <napster> ActionParsnip: That breaks the dependencies friend :-(
[15:21] <atDebug> Sean93: GParted
[15:21] <Sean93> ect.*
[15:21] <ActionParsnip> GHH: cool :)
[15:21] <yapsol> i'm just at unease from using it at linux
[15:21] <ActionParsnip> napster: then you need to satisfy deps
[15:21] <napster> ActionParsnip: How gdebi-package installer works?
[15:22] <Kofte> warning regarding NTFS partitions: ubuntu can't handle privileges well on NTFS partitions
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> napster: its a gui for the command I gave
[15:22] <GHH> ActionParsnip, Now want to change also the image and need to add my own image for startup
[15:22] <yapsol> Sean93: Install Windows not using all the disk space
[15:22] <tensorpudding> NTFS is supported on Windows, OSX, Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Haiku/BeOS
[15:22] <napster> ActionParsnip: Absolutly NO
[15:22] <christoz> jiohdi, thanks didn't know that this command exists, but what i do when someone remotely wants to write in there?
[15:22] <tensorpudding> even MS-DOS apparently
[15:22] <yapsol> Then install Ubuntu after it.
[15:22] <onaogh> burg, so once u decide the sizes of home and / (root ) partitions, just click add and set size and mount point "/" for root and /home for home, make both ext4
[15:22] <kexman_> hello
[15:22] <Kofte> I used to have a data partition in NTFS to share with XP, but I couldn't set user privileges
[15:22] <ActionParsnip> GHH: http://linux.aldeby.org/configure-grub2-options-and-background.html
[15:22] <jiohdi> christoz: sorry, dont know that answer to that one
[15:22] <Sean93> yapsol: its a 1TB drive, how much would you recomend for windows and ubuntu
[15:22] <kexman_> does anyone have any idea how secure this is ? http://oslike.se
[15:23] <christoz> jiohdi, ok thanks
[15:23] <burg> onaogh: both logical? / and /home?
[15:23] <yapsol> Kofte: haha. I suffered hell to share ┬ĄTorrent between Windows and Linux. I needed to install ┬ĄTorrent on a ext2 partition.
[15:23] <napster> ActionParsnip: gdebi finds and installs the deps, but dpkg -i don't do that!
[15:23] <Guest08140> quelqu'un parle francais ? jaimerai prendre des photos a partr de ma webcam integr├® mais je c pas comment faire sous xubuntu
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> kexman_: just add mac4lin to your current system and you'll have the same
[15:23] <atDebug> tensorpudding: Even KolibriOS has read-only access :O
[15:23] <enriqueaf> joo nadie me hace caso, tendr├® que ir a los foros
[15:23] <ActionParsnip> napster: you can run: sudo apt-get -f install     why the exclamation mark?
[15:23] <tensorpudding> Guest08140: /join #ubuntu-fr
[15:23] <centos-user-az> who knows automated lamp installation where installs packages
[15:23] <GHH> ActionParsnip, /etc/grub ?
[15:24] <yapsol> Sean93: I *think* 10-20GB should be enough for Ubuntu, if you want to save most of your files on Windows.
[15:24] <ActionParsnip> GHH: read the guide
[15:24] <kexman_> i found it here : http://linuxtracker.org/index.php?page=torrent-details&id=5ce0891e0ee0aba38b1a78fecf4cf9f55cd90b09
[15:24] <yapsol> Sean93: add some extra space for "swap"
[15:24] <yapsol> One thumb rule for swap size is 2x your RAM.
[15:24] <kexman_> ActionParsnip: a lot of work with what you could get already pre installed :) pretty big (huge) difference
[15:24] <centos-user-az> tensorpudding: Where I can find apache web server's directory installed by tasksel
[15:24] <napster> ActionParsnip: exclamation because, thats the expected behaviour for dpkg, right?
[15:25] <tensorpudding> the 2x RAM rule is not very useful anymore
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> Sean93: 10Gb /, 1xRAM amount for swap and 10Gb for /home, you can save extra data in your windows partition if you like
[15:25] <izinucs> centos-user-az: /var/www
[15:25] <Goldline> is there a commdn to always allow untrusted packages to be downloaded, thats awhole lot easier than manually adding them
[15:25] <Goldline> is there a command to always allow untrusted packages to be downloaded, thats awhole lot easier than manually adding them
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> napster: no, dpkg's job is only to install the package it is given
[15:25] <yapsol> As long as 2x RAM is still plenty I don't care.
[15:25] <burg> onaogh: and since i have 25gb for / and /home , how would you recommend to make them?
[15:25] <Sean93> yapsol: I'm trying to use ubuntu as my main OS but I'm still have XP withdrawal symptoms lol
[15:25] <napster> ActionParsnip: hmm, now its clear, thanks for the help
[15:25] <izinucs> centos-user-az: that's where html files go.. /etc/apache2 for configs etc
[15:25] <ActionParsnip> kexman_: sure but it wont be supported here as its some homebrew nonesense, big difference
[15:26] <yapsol> I have 4GB of RAM and I use 8GB for swap.
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> kexman_: manually installing the stuff which the user has added will get the same result but isn't some hacked release
[15:26] <onaogh> burg, if u aren't installing much softwares, 10 Gb is sufficient for root, keep the rest for home
[15:26] <kgx> is it possible to request a url through a proxy from firefox's address bar directly (without reconfiguring firefox's network settings)? i've seen someone do this before but can't remembe how
[15:26] <yapsol> Sean93: Try this Sean. Install Windows on the whole drive, and all your software.
[15:26] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: does it ever get used?
[15:26] <icarus-c> yapsol, 8GB of swap?.....
[15:26] <enriqueaf> yapsol: why 2x RAM for Swap
[15:27] <burg> onaogh: again: should i make both logical partitions?
[15:27] <onaogh> yes
[15:27] <enriqueaf> it is not suposed that the swap part it is used if the ram is full??
[15:27] <yapsol> Then shrink the partition with GParted live.
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> Sean93: if you install windows first but leave space unpartitioned (default is 100% for windows), you can avoid the whole resize debarkle
[15:27] <napster> ActionParsnip: But the question remains, how can I resolve the dependency while install for a package on my home folder (the package is not in the archive, but the deps are in the repos)
[15:27] <yapsol> Make it about 10GB bigger than XP. This will leave you some room to add other software.
[15:27] <icarus-c> enriqueaf, generally linux start swapping even there are still free ram
[15:27] <centos-user-az> izinucs:  i found /etc/apache2 but here i can't find what i want also httpd.conf is empty
[15:27] <onaogh> burg, again send me a snapshot in mediafire
[15:27] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: why bother resizing when you can simply make the windows partition smaller than the available space, reduces data corruption risk
[15:28] <yapsol> And if it is not enough, you can resize with GParted again, as long as you don't use LVM and/or encryption on Ubuntu.
[15:28] <burg> onaogh: after i create the new partitions?
[15:28] <izinucs> centos-user-az: I don't know anything about httpd.conf
[15:28] <onaogh> burg, yes
[15:28]  * icarus-c still don't understand why 8GB of swap...
[15:28] <Kofte> centos-user-az: httpd.conf is empty by default
[15:28] <enriqueaf> icarus-c but it do it if the RAM is low no??
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> napster: if: sudo apt-get -f install    doesn't resolve it, you will need to find debs or PPAs with the packages you need
[15:28] <icarus-c> enriqueaf, of course it does
[15:28] <napster> ActionParsnip: Can I pm?
[15:28] <ActionParsnip> napster: sure
[15:28] <kellnola> you don't need 8GB of swap
[15:29] <centos-user-az> izinucs: Do You know about lamp installed by tasksel
[15:29] <yapsol> I use 8GB for the swap area because I have 3TB of disk here.
[15:29] <enriqueaf> icarus-c, so if you have high ram you don't need so much swap
[15:29] <izinucs> centos-user-az: that's too general of a question
[15:29] <Goldline> Howto allo the downloadin of untrusted packages by default instead of adding them manually?
[15:29] <onaogh> i think ubuntu cannot hibernate if the swap < ram
[15:29] <nepalinux_> centos-user-az: set DocumentRoot in the httpd.conf file with the absolute path where you'are keeping your websripts..
[15:29] <icarus-c> enriqueaf, try 512MB ram and give 10GB swap. it will still be slow as F
[15:29] <Goldline> Howto allow the downloading of untrusted packages by default instead of adding them manually?
[15:29] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: can you give the output of:   sudo apt-get update    I can give a command to import the keys and they will be trusted
[15:29] <icarus-c> under heavy page fualt
[15:29] <kellnola> I usually low-ball swap since if it gets used, you;'re screwed not matter
[15:30] <Goldline> okay wait
[15:30] <Goldline> ii pm u
[15:30] <kellnola> *no matter what
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: use http://pastie.org
[15:30] <centos-user-az> izinucs: izinucs: i talk about apache web server's htdocs folder do you about it?
[15:30] <icarus-c> i normally have swap 1x of ram if i need hibernation,  otherwise 200MB
[15:30] <izinucs> centos-user-az: no
[15:30] <yapsol> At this moment I'm running Ubuntu 10.10. XFCE, some file folders opened, Firefox with ten tabs and XChat. Mem used 966908, Swap used 78372.
[15:30] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: create the text, use the pastebin, you can then paste a link
[15:31] <|Gaijin|> anyone having problems with 10.10 reducing your in and outgoing traffic to less then half after upgrading from 10.04?
[15:31] <icarus-c> |Gaijin|, how you get that figure
[15:31] <|Gaijin|> ehm... eating healthy?
[15:31] <burg> onaogh: http://www.mediafire.com/imageview.php?quickkey=ag3mbge7bugf0bw
[15:31] <|Gaijin|> what figure?
[15:31] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: can you give the output of:  free -m   I can run that on my 1.5Gb system with 3Gb swap and its fine

[15:32] <gilaniali> The `write` command works when the user is logged into the same server, but what if they are not. Is there a command to leave a message that the user gets when they log in
[15:32] <yapsol> Just a moment, ActionParsnip
[15:33] <onaogh> burg, u got it right, u can proceed with installation now
[15:33] <burg> onaogh: great, thank you

[15:33] <GHH> ActionParsnip, thanks and 1 more question that now can i use the remastersystem  for the iso?
[15:33] <atDebug> Don't run sudo rm -rf /
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> GHH: why are you just asking me, ask the channel
[15:34] <icarus-c> atDebug, why are you even posting it
[15:34] <tumii> what the hell. my only resolution is 640x480 and i have installed nvidia drivers. GPU is 8800 GTS. what can I do?
[15:34] <yapsol> ActionParsnip, http://pastebin.com/T0qse1x2
[15:34] <GHH> ActionParsnip, sorry
[15:34] <ActionParsnip> !nvidia | tumii
[15:34] <onaogh> i was using a software in ubuntu before for watching channels live and youtube + other videos, but i dont remember its name now, it was starting with v
[15:34] <Goldline> action im reloading
[15:34] <Sean93> Windows 50GB, Root 12GB, Swap 2.5GB and Home 850GB (or whatever is left). Does that sound ok?
[15:34] <izinucs> tumii: I bet you installed the binary from nvidia..
[15:34] <tumii> yes
[15:34] <tumii> from nvidia site
[15:34] <GHH> 1 more question that now can i use the remastersystem  for the backup and making  iso?
[15:35] <tumii> izinucs yes
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> tumii: no, from the repos
[15:35] <yapsol> I remember the memory usage reaching the stars when I got the Ubuntu 9 CD and updated it.
[15:35] <icarus-c> Sean93, i would put slightly more for root
[15:35] <icarus-c> Sean93, say 15GB
[15:35] <wmirc> Do we have people that use windows mobile
[15:35] <Sean93> icarus-c: how much?
[15:35] <tumii> ActionParsnip: nope, i downloaded it from nvidia site and installed it
[15:35] <burg> onaogh: once again, all my linux partitions are now logical. is that correct?
[15:35] <tumii> whats the problem?
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: you have 1Gb RAM and have 370Mb free of it
[15:35] <Goldline> still afew errors remaining ation ii paste them
[15:35] <izinucs> tumii: without disabling the neuvoue driver and making other changes.. it's not as easy as it use to be to install the nvidia driver.. you're better off uninstalling it then google the nvidia PPA
[15:35] <Sean93> icarus-c:  ah, ok
[15:35] <icarus-c> Sean93, that could allow you to install multiple DE at the same time, and other random softwar
[15:35] <ActionParsnip> tumii: then you will have to do a LOT of work manually
[15:36] <onaogh> yes
[15:36] <onaogh> burg, yes
[15:36] <ActionParsnip> tumii: if you use the package in the repo it will all be done for you
[15:36] <yapsol> 1GB because I'm running Ubuntu inside VirtualBox under Windows 7.
[15:36] <Sean93> multiple DE?
[15:36] <tumii> ActionParsnip: sudo apt-get install nvidia-current is installed
[15:36] <Goldline> http://pastie.org/1227697
[15:36] <yapsol> This computer is shared and I can't use "pure" Linux all the time.
[15:36] <icarus-c> Sean93, between, don't you need to share data between windows/ubuntu ?
[15:36] <icarus-c> Sean93, or you are planning to put /home right on NTFS
[15:36] <izinucs> ActionParsnip: tumii if you want the latest driver for the 9800 use the PPA
[15:36] <kexman_> ActionParsnip: probably not a good idea to install it since i didnt even read a single article on the net about it :)
[15:37] <Goldline> http://pastie.org/1227697
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: the getdeb server then, doesn't have a lucid folder
[15:37] <kexman_> whois of the site doesnt shows too much neither :)
[15:37] <icarus-c> Sean93, say you install both GNOME and KDE
[15:37] <Goldline> howto fix this?
[15:37] <tumii> izinucs: I want a bigger resolution at now thanks. and it was 8800 not 9800
[15:37] <kexman_> and contact is a gmail address :)
[15:37] <fewboo> I created a new pgp key in the seashore program that comes by default with Ubuntu.  I wanted to encrypt a folder but then I noticed that there was no encrypt option when I right clicked on it.
[15:37] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: remove the repo in software sources
[15:37] <venilsurya> icarus-c: Is that even possible/
[15:37] <tumii> I uninstalled the driver i downloaded from nvidia site by "--uninstall" and nvidia-current is installed.
[15:37] <icarus-c> venilsurya, what
[15:37] <tumii> what the ****
[15:37] <yapsol> By now I'm not terribly worried about performance. I just need to share some applications between Windows and Ubuntu.
[15:38] <Goldline> coammdn?
[15:38] <venilsurya> icarus-c: Installing both Gnome and KDE
[15:38] <napster> ActionParsnip: Thank for the help :-)
[15:38] <Goldline> command?
[15:38] <icarus-c> venilsurya, why not
[15:38] <yapsol> Firefox and Thunderbird work out of the box.
[15:38] <izinucs> tumii: yes..part of the issue is the way you installed the driver.. remove it and install the PPA for the latest driver or use the driver provided by ubuntu in system>Admin>hardware drivers...
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> tumii: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates; sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-current-modaliases nvidia-settings
[15:38] <Sean93> icarus-c: do i need another partition for sharing data? i have an NTFS external, could i use that?
[15:38] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: use the item in system -> admin
[15:38] <icarus-c> Sean93, yes you could.
[15:38] <izinucs> ActionParsnip: he needs to uninstall the binary first..
[15:38] <Goldline> so ii have to remove all getdeb.net links?
[15:38] <venilsurya> icarus-c: Does that mean I can put two desktops in the same OS - I'm confused, really!
[15:38] <Goldline> under other software
[15:39] <tumii> ActionParsnip: okay i'll try that, thanks
[15:39] <yapsol> ┬ĄTorrent required some extra work, I needed to install it on an ext2 partition and drivers to mount it on Windows.
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> izinucs: i havent used the binary package in years
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> tumii: you do need to remove the current one first
[15:39] <tumii> how?
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> Goldline: pretty much
[15:39] <tumii> sudo ./nvidia.run --uninstall has been done
[15:39] <Sean93> icarus-c:  how would i set up a partition for sharing between windows and linux?
[15:39] <ActionParsnip> tumii: no idea, i havent used that in years, find out how online
[15:39] <JimmyHoffa> i followed a howtogeek tutorial to move ubuntu's windows icons back to the right but the tutorial says that just rearranging the buttons order sends them back to the right but it doesn't. Does anyone know how?
[15:39] <Russel> ciao a tutti
[15:39] <kexman_> ActionParsnip: ever heared about UberStudent linux distro ? :)
[15:39] <yapsol> I also have an old version of Free Download Manager working on both systems, but it crashes when I try to download FTP files under Ubuntu/Wine.
[15:40] <icarus-c> Sean93, for me, i have a  15GB / ; 5GB /home; 70GB Win7; and the rest to a NTFS partition.  and create symbolic links in /home/$USER/ to point to the NTFS storage
[15:40] <tumii> ActionParsnip: but anyway thanks for the command, it seems to be installing something now
[15:40] <tumii> hey how can i move the window buttons from left to right??
[15:40] <icarus-c> Sean93, like linking ~/Documents  ~/Music ...etc  to the NTFS partition
[15:40] <yapsol> I'm using MLdonkey for FTP. It also works out of the box on Windows and Ubuntu.
[15:40] <ZykoticK9> !controls | tumii
[15:40] <ActionParsnip> tumii: stick to the packages, its makes life easier
[15:40] <Goldline> its working ur awesome!
[15:40] <Goldline> Reading package lists... Done
[15:40] <tumii> ActionParsnip: Yes yes
[15:41] <yapsol> All this sharing is needed because the downloads *must never stop*.
[15:41] <Goldline> thanks
[15:41] <tumii> I reset X now, we'll see what happens
[15:41] <apostolos> ŽĆ╬┐Žā ŽāŽä╬▒╬╝╬▒Žä╬▒╬Ą╬╣ Žä╬┐ wget
[15:41] <Sean93> are there any advantage to using ext4 over NTFS?
[15:41] <apostolos> na katevazi oeo
[15:41] <icarus-c> Sean93, well to share files between windows & linux you need to use a file system that both of them support. i prefer NTFS for this
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> yapsol: you can access ftp using nautilus
[15:41] <yapsol> I know
[15:41] <thaDM> tumii: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/13535/move-window-buttons-back-to-the-right-in-ubuntu-10.04/
[15:41] <ActionParsnip> Sean93: ext4 doesn't fragment is one huge advantage
[15:41] <icarus-c> Sean93, yes. for example ext4 support Unix file permissions while NTFS doesn't
[15:41] <tumii> thaDM: i got it thanks
[15:41] <kv10t> anyone tell me why Brasero error when using ISO files (more than one). http://pastebin.com/MsnNwS1m
[15:42] <yapsol> But I can't continue the Windows FDM FTP downloads when I'm running Linux.
[15:42] <yapsol> So I switched to MLdonkey for FTP.
[15:42] <icarus-c> Sean93, and ext4 perform better than ntfs
[15:42] <ubuntulxdeaa> what's the benefits LVM has over losetup ?
[15:42] <droopal> I am running Ubuntu 10.10 on my pc, the problem I have is, since upgrading from 10.04 the numbers at the side of the keyboard wont work.
[15:43] <ActionParsnip> kv10t: ive had no joy wit brasero, i always use gnomebaker
[15:43] <ubuntulxdeaa> droopal: is Num lock's light on?
[15:43] <yapsol> ubuntulxdeaa, adding extra storage is easier with LVM.
[15:43] <droopal> yes
[15:43] <nakaori> can anyone help with ftpmirror?
[15:44] <ubuntulxdeaa> yapsol: the main problem with losetup is that I cannot find any way to get the loopback devices to be created automatically at startup
[15:44] <droopal> on the numbers 8, 2, 4 and 6 have arrows in the same keys, and the arrows work instead
[15:44] <yapsol> you could use /etc/rc.local to create the loopback devices
[15:45] <yapsol> I use /etc/rc.local to detect VirtualBox and mount my drives properly. Under Windows it uses the VirtualBox shared folders and under Ubuntu I mount the physical partitions.
[15:45] <ubuntulxdeaa> yapsol: but that's not a very purist method. For instance, if I want to mount those loopback devices automatically as well it won't work, since fstab will be launched before the rc.local thing
[15:46] <yapsol> I setup my system so that I can boot Ubuntu and use the same installation inside VirtualBox.
[15:46] <kv10t> ActionParsnip: Does it have the same utils?
[15:46] <yapsol> If purism solves your problem then go for it.
[15:46] <ActionParsnip> kv10t: as far as I know yes, give it a go
[15:46] <cybastl> is there a known bug in the softwarecenter?
[15:46] <cybastl> whenever i legetimate a new installtion
[15:47] <kv10t> ActionParsnip: Already starting to look for it.
[15:47] <v3rr3z> Hi, I was just wondering: Is there anything special I have to do to Ubuntu 32 bit to make it support dual core processor better.. it seems my install is running slow.
[15:47] <cybastl> the windows that asks me to do that wont dissapeare
[15:47] <ubuntulxdeaa> yapsol: it's not just a matter of purism :) It's a matter of fstab being launched before rc.local is even thought about
[15:47] <kv10t> ActionParsnip: i'll let you know
[15:47] <yapsol> ubuntulxdeaa: Oh. Then I don't know how to help you.
[15:47] <fewboo> I created a new pgp key in the seashore program that comes by default with Ubuntu.  I wanted to encrypt a folder but then I noticed that under the right click option there was no encrypt option.
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> kv10t: sudo apt-get install gnomebaker   whats to search for, you know the name
[15:47] <ActionParsnip> ubuntulxdeaa: you can add: mount -a   in /etc/rc.local   and it'll be ok
[15:49] <v3rr3z> Anyone?
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> v3rr3z: the 32bit ISO has SMP in the kernel so suports mulicore
[15:49] <v3rr3z> Alright.. Then any other reasons for lag in the OS?
[15:49] <ActionParsnip> v3rr3z: have you configured your video chip and are you fully updated
[15:50] <ActionParsnip> v3rr3z: poor settings
[15:50] <v3rr3z> fully updated: yes.. Configured video chip.. no
[15:50] <ubuntulxdeaa> ActionParsnip: that's probably feasible. Invoking /etc/rc.local in this order: 1) losetup, in order to create a loopback device from a file 2) cryptsetup, in order to create a mapped encrypted device 3) mount, in order to mount such device into /tmp. The thing is that I am not sure where in the bootup process is rc.local launched, i.e. it may be launched after the system has already created its own /tmp directory at / , m
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> v3rr3z: if you run:  lspci | grep -i vga    it'll tell you what it is, you can then websearch for guides
[15:51] <Legend_Xeon> Greetz :)
[15:51] <ActionParsnip> ubuntulxdeaa: i believe it's just before the login screen / prompt schows, like the last stage ever
[15:52] <Legend_Xeon> I have a question.
[15:52] <etheretic1> Is there a program which compares the contents of several harddisks making duplicate and triplicate ++ files known? Preferably gui.
[15:52] <v3rr3z> nVidia Corporation C51 [Quadro NVS 210S/GeForce 6150LE] (rev a2)
[15:53] <ubuntulxdeaa> ActionParsnip: that would prove problematic most likely, don't you think? i.e. trying to mount all this once the system has given up trying to mount some lines of fstab
[15:53] <Legend_Xeon> Can i trust ubuntu to make online transcations ?
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> ubuntulxdeaa: if the partition is already mounted it will be ignored
[15:54] <Bada> Legend_Xeon: hehe of course you can
[15:54] <ActionParsnip> ubuntulxdeaa: you can also add a few more specific mount commands in the file instead
[15:54] <ubuntulxdeaa> ActionParsnip: of course, there's the "solution" of removing all references to /tmp or /dev/loop0 from "fstab" and invoke a complete mount command from rc.local, but that doesn't solve my doubts about the system creating /tmp at / before rc.local is invoked
[15:54] <yapsol> etheretic1: this is from Google: http://ubuntulinuxhelp.com/easily-manage-duplicate-files-and-save-storage-space/
[15:55] <Legend_Xeon> Thanks Bada. What extra security features can i configure in ubuntu ?
[15:55] <ActionParsnip> ubuntulxdeaa: thats all i got dude
[15:55] <kuttenbrunzer_> the package "build-essential" has no more the "configure" command. Which package has it?
[15:55] <yapsol> Legend_Xeon: noscript for firefox if you know what you're doing
[15:56] <ubuntulxdeaa> ActionParsnip: I am a persistent person :)
[15:56] <Bada> Legend_Xeon: There is nothing to configure, just use chrome or firefox as you would on any other OS.
[15:56] <Legend_Xeon> ok
[15:56] <Nach0z> hello hello. How would I ping a website in Terminal? like in windows CMD? it doenst seem to want to work in ubuntu....
[15:56] <what_thef_ever> man, I just installed Glib and it completely fucked my GNOME
[15:56] <thiebaude> !language
[15:56] <icarus-c> Legend_Xeon, just general network security matters. like encrypted wireless network
[15:56] <ubuntulxdeaa> Nach0z: if it doesn't work, either your connection is down or you have some sort of dns problem
[15:57] <icarus-c> Nach0z, ping google.com
[15:57] <Nach0z> ubuntulxdeaa: i mean i dont really know the command or the subtleties behind it
[15:57] <Legend_Xeon> thanks
[15:57] <ubuntulxdeaa> Nach0z: ping , just like in Windows
[15:57] <what_thef_ever> will someone help me solve my problem?
[15:57] <RudyValencia> kuttenbrunzer_: I think it's in autoconf
[15:58] <Nach0z> ubuntulxdeaa: it wasnt  accepting it with the HTTP:// prefix. but thanks. works now
[15:58] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, do you happen to update glib alone but not all those which use glib?
[15:58] <ubuntulxdeaa> Nach0z: don't use http://
[15:58] <candy_> hiiii
[15:58] <what_thef_ever> icarus what do you mean?
[15:58] <ubuntulxdeaa> Nach0z: just try "ping www.yahoo.com"
[15:58] <Nach0z> ubuntulxdeaa: yeah that's what i jsut figured out from that :P it works now.
[15:58] <what_thef_ever> I downloaded the source code, compiled and installd it and now by Ubuntu is smashed to peices
[15:58] <ubuntulxdeaa> :)
[15:58] <fewboo> I created a new pgp key in the seashore program that comes by default with Ubuntu.  I wanted to encrypt a folder but then I noticed that under the right click options there was no encrypt option.
[15:59] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, say you updated glib from  version x to y.  while the rest of gnome depends on glib version x.  therefore it breaks
[15:59] <kuttenbrunzer_> RudyValenc: its not in autoconf :(
[15:59] <ubuntulxdeaa> icarus-c: the question is, why did apt-get allow such update given that it was destined to break?
[15:59] <what_thef_ever> How can I found out what version of Glib shipped with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS?
[15:59] <icarus-c> ubuntulxdeaa, did he say he update with apt-get?
[16:00] <kuttenbrunzer_> RudyValencia: its not in autoconf
[16:00] <ubuntulxdeaa> icarus-c: no, I just figured it out... how else could he have done it? via dpkg -i ?
[16:00] <candy_> hiiiii
[16:00] <yapsol> I wonder if/when Ubuntu will adopt the BSD kernel as an option. Jails would be nice.
[16:01] <icarus-c> ubuntulxdeaa, don't ask me :P
[16:01] <Bada> candy_: Yo Yo'
[16:01] <RudyValencia> oh I thought it was
[16:01] <candy_> :PPPP
[16:01] <what_thef_ever> icarus do you know how I can find out what version of Glib Ubuntu 10.04 LTS shipped with?
[16:01] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, are you on 10.04 ?
[16:01] <icarus-c> !info glib
[16:01] <what_thef_ever> or what version of Glib my GNOME requires?
[16:01] <ubuntulxdeaa> yapsol: that would be far better than the current rc.d maze which nobody (me, at least) can understand. If they adopted the BSD style - like Arch - it would all be much more understandable and pedagogic
[16:01] <what_thef_ever> Yes, I use 10.04 LTS.
[16:02] <icarus-c> what is it called :P
[16:02] <what_thef_ever> icarus yes I use 10.04 LTS.
[16:02] <yapsol> what_thef_ever, http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[16:03] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: how did you go about updating Glib?
[16:03] <fewboo> There is of course an a debian distro version that comes with BSD kernel
[16:03] <what_thef_ever> thanks yapsol, I will check this out now
[16:03] <yapsol> yes, debian kFreeBSD I think.
[16:03] <ubuntulxdeaa> fewboo: does such Debian distro have a different rc.d structure (i.e. more similar to Arch's init scripts)?
[16:04] <what_thef_ever> ubuntulxdeaa, I never intended on updating it. I was compiling an application call Audacious and it said I needed the Glib library, so I downloaded the source of Glib 2.26 and ./configure, make, make install, and then my system was stuffed.
[16:04] <fewboo> There is also nexenta.  The new release just came out and it has opensolaris kernel with debian programs
[16:04] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: I see. The old problem of breaking one's own system due to not abiding exclusively to apt-get install usage
[16:04] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, ubuntu ships adacious too
[16:05] <what_thef_ever> I was not aware of this
[16:05] <what_thef_ever> Im new
[16:05] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, seriously, avoid ./configure && make && make install
[16:05] <what_thef_ever> Really?
[16:05] <icarus-c> it breaks stuff
[16:05] <what_thef_ever> icarus why is that?
[16:05] <what_thef_ever> oh I see.
[16:05] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: you may avoid several headaches if you reinstall your system and abide by "sudo apt-get install"
[16:05] <what_thef_ever> So my problem is common?
[16:05] <magedragon25> anyone here familiar with vmware server?
[16:06] <shubbar> ms wireless optical 700 should work with ubuntu?
[16:06] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: yeah, most people have broken their system either by that or dpkg -i
[16:06] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, it would proudly overwrite system components. and not notifying package manager, you may likely have no way to trace it/remove it
[16:06] <what_thef_ever> the system does not require a re-install. I don't think.
[16:06] <aurelio> ciao a tutti
[16:06] <icarus-c> ubuntulxdeaa, dpkg -i is still fine
[16:06] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: the moment you don't "limit" yourself to your distro's repositories, you have to accept the risk of breaking your system, which is fine, but one has to accept it as inevitable
[16:06] <aurelio> !list
[16:06] <crunch2> Hi, i would like to know if there is any quick way to put colors in the terminal?
[16:07] <gopper> I'm using Empathy's IRC protocol. Is there a way to close any channel chat window, without actually leaving the channel?
[16:07] <devunt> Is Hardy is out of support now?
[16:07] <jiangjunqiang> hi
[16:07] <ubuntulxdeaa> gopper: I don't know whether "/window close" would work...
[16:07] <what_thef_ever> so how can I go about fixing it?
[16:07] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, if you need to install something and can't find a package for it, package one. if you really can't package.  at least  ./configure --prefix=$HOME/.local/    instead
[16:07] <ubuntulxdeaa> gopper: you'd probably leave the channel as well
[16:07] <shubbar> I cannot get a wireless keyboard working... would appreciate some help
[16:07] <devunt> !hardy
[16:07] <yapsol> I still remember my first installation destroyed by compilation. Ages ago, I thought that it would be advisable to compile glibc because software X required it and I broke totally the Red Hat installation.
[16:07] <devunt> !lts
[16:08] <what_thef_ever> isn't the 'make' command that makes a package?
[16:08] <yapsol> Good times. The only way to learn is from your mistakes.
[16:08] <gopper> It didn't even recognize the command /window close.
[16:08] <jiangjunqiang> hello
[16:08] <devunt> aah, 3years
[16:08] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, well..... find out those files made by compiling that glib, remove them and then reinstall glib from ubuntu
[16:08] <droopal> can somebody help with the problem I have please?
[16:08] <what_thef_ever> you are right!
[16:08] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever,   i mean   ./configure --prefix=$HOME/.local/   && make && make install
[16:08] <what_thef_ever> God shared libraries are such a stupid engineering way to go about making stuff hey..
[16:08] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, this will install to your ~/.local
[16:09] <jiangjunqiang> Õż¦Õ«ČÕźĮ
[16:09] <jiangjunqiang> µ£ēõ║║ÕÉŚ
[16:09] <thiebaude> !cn
[16:09] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, without shared library, ubuntu will be damn fat
[16:09] <ubuntulxdeaa> jiangjunqiang: nice charset man
[16:09] <magedragon25> droopal, what's the issue?
[16:09] <icarus-c> ubuntulxdeaa, thoes are chinese :P
[16:09] <what_thef_ever> thats true, but it wouldn't be so easy to brake.
[16:09] <ubuntulxdeaa> icarus-c: yep :)
[16:10] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, you know what, package manager is invented for some reasons
[16:10] <droopal> oh, sorry have already posted earlier, I upgraded to 10.10, and the numbers at the side of the keyboard wont work
[16:10] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, it breaks coz you are doing it wrong
[16:10] <droopal> the up down arrows work instead
[16:10] <magedragon25> what's yer system?
[16:10] <what_thef_ever> I can't seem to find glib on the ubuntu website
[16:10] <RudyValencia> droopal: num lock?
[16:10] <yapsol> did you press num lock, droopal?
[16:10] <droopal> its clicked on
[16:11] <RudyValencia> and it still acts like arrow keys?
[16:11] <droopal> yes
[16:11] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, libglib2 something
[16:11] <cannonball> Good morning all.  Update Manager on my Ubuntu 9.10 laptop only shows that I can upgrade to 10.04.1 LTS, it doesn't show 10.10 as an option.   I do have the "Normal Releases" selected for "Show new distribution releases" option in Upgrade Manager.
[16:11] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, apititude search libglib2
[16:11] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: I'd follow the "sudo apt-get install glib" route, but I cannot guarantee this would work. Also, consider invoking "sudo apt-get remove glib" (or libglib2 or whatever) before. There's also the option --fix-missing (to apt-get) but again I have barely tried all this
[16:11] <cannonball> Will it not let me skip two release levels like that, or is there something else going on?
[16:12] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, by the way, audacious is in ubuntu repo. you could install by  apt-get install audaciosu
[16:12] <RudyValencia> Check what kind of keyboard you have set up in System > Preferences > Keyboard
[16:12] <yapsol> cannonball, I think you need to update to 10.04.1 LTS first
[16:12] <what_thef_ever> i wanted to compile it
[16:12] <cannonball> yapsol: ok, thanks.
[16:12] <RudyValencia> Layouts tab
[16:12] <what_thef_ever> im sick of wizards
[16:12] <droopal> what should it be
[16:12] <b3rz3rk3r> Hi guys, iv just installed 10.10 and my wireless isnt working, but the output of lshw shows the hardware and driver are there.. how do i enable it?
[16:12] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, grab the package source to start with
[16:12] <what_thef_ever> i wanna see the internals
[16:12] <magedragon25> cannonball, I had that issue before and I think it goes one release at a time...
[16:12] <yapsol> then update from 10.04.1 LTS to 10.10
[16:12] <RudyValencia> droopal: What kind of keyboard do you have?
[16:12] <what_thef_ever> it interests me
[16:12] <cannonball> roger that, thanks guys.
[16:12] <droopal> it is an Advent, and there isnt anything in Keyboard for an Advent
[16:12] <what_thef_ever> better understanding of computers
[16:12] <kv10t> how can i see what usb devices I have pugged in.
[16:13] <droopal> I also have a Logitech, nothing there for that either
[16:13] <magedragon25> kv10t, go in to terminal and type lsusb -a
[16:13] <droopal> they are brand new, as I had an older keyboard I thought might be broken, and bought two new keyboards, still the same
[16:13] <what_thef_ever> im so stuffed
[16:13] <what_thef_ever> i cant find glib
[16:13] <what_thef_ever> or gliblib2
[16:13] <nibbler_> i use gopenvpn to connect my vpns, as sadly nm is not that powerfull. however, everytime i start this up, i have to enter my sudo-password. how can i avoid this? network manager can handle my vpns without that, too :/
[16:13] <what_thef_ever> this is why linux will never rule
[16:13] <RudyValencia> droopal: Try Generic > Generic 104-key PC
[16:13] <what_thef_ever> retarded designs
[16:13] <ljsoftnet> is it safe to blacklist my wireless network card? its a netbook
[16:14] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, libglib2
[16:14] <kv10t> -a does not exist
[16:14] <kv10t> ubuntu 10.4
[16:14] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, why is linux involved :P
[16:14] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: ubuntu is not a good distro in order to compile things, from my viewpoint (and this point is to some extent supported by the fact that build-essential and the C compilers don't come with the standard installation). My advice, if you want to try things other than the repositories would be to download static binaries: these are .tgz as well, but they don't need compilation, they work out of the box once unta
[16:14] <droopal> nope, didnt make any difference
[16:14] <what_thef_ever> apt-get does not recognize glib or libglib2
[16:15] <droopal> still doesnt work
[16:15] <magedragon25> kv10t, sorry, just lsusb
[16:15] <b3rz3rk3r> Hi guys, iv just installed 10.10 and my wireless isnt working, but the output of lshw shows the hardware and driver are there.. how do i enable it?
[16:15] <kv10t> magefragon25: i have a use mic/headset in USB.  should it show up if working.
[16:15] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, it is called libglib2<something>
[16:15] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, search for it
[16:15] <magedragon25> kv10t, yes
[16:15] <what_thef_ever> libglib2-0
[16:16] <ljsoftnet> is it safe to blacklist my wireless network card? its a netbook
[16:16] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, like "libglib2.0-0"  in 10.10
[16:16] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: libglib2.0-0
[16:16] <kv10t> magefragon25: i see nothing bar root hubs and Bluetooth+LAN internal
[16:16] <what_thef_ever> awesome
[16:16] <ubuntulxdeaa> what_thef_ever: libglib2.0-dev
[16:16] <what_thef_ever> somethings happening :D
[16:17] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, it must be complaining file already exists / conflicts
[16:17] <zamarax> anyone know why I get this error? udevd-work[411]: '/sbin/blkid -o udev -p /dev/sda2' unexpected exit with status 0x000b I had to manually update my fstab file to mount my windows partition and now I get thrown this error on every boot
[16:17] <what_thef_ever> sudo apt-get remove libglib2.0-0 is responding
[16:17] <kv10t> magedragon25: i see nothing bar root hubs and Bluetooth+LAN internal
[16:17] <Rexl> Hey  all, I am trying to install ubuntu server on an ION 330 platform via a USB stick but it keeps getting stuck @ SYSLINK 3.68 2010-04-01 EBIOS blalblala, Any idea what the problem could be?
[16:17] <what_thef_ever> 'After this operation, 1,750MB disk space will be freed.' does this sound right?
[16:18] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, yes it sounds right. but it probably not the ideal way to fix
[16:18] <kv10t> ActionParsnip: CD 100% no errors. Good so far, thanks
[16:18] <julian_> i have a problem with nvidia force 310M
[16:18] <what_thef_ever> remove and install again? what other way would you recommend?
[16:18] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, it is right because the package manager is not aware of the glib you installed
[16:18] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, i would reinstall all libglib2* packages
[16:18] <yapsol> if gnome is broken perhaps sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome
[16:18] <yapsol> might fix it?
[16:19] <what_thef_ever> would removing and installing be the same?
[16:19] <icarus-c> what_thef_ever, not really, removing it would remove everything depends on it too.
[16:19] <what_thef_ever> i was thinking of removing it then reinstalling it straight away
[16:20] <spotter> c
[16:20] <kv10t> magedragon25: i see nothing bar root hubs and Bluetooth+LAN internal
[16:20] <magedragon25> have you check dmesg to see if the system registered it?
[16:21] <b3rz3rk3r> iv just installed 10.10 and my wireless isnt working, but the output of lshw shows the hardware and driver are there.. does anyone know how i enable it?
[16:22] <icarus-c> b3rz3rk3r, have you try clicking on the network icon at the panel
[16:22] <Rexl> Anyone got an idea why the Installation wont start on my ION 330 platform? I am using Ubuntu server 10.04 32bits
[16:22] <b3rz3rk3r> icarus-c, yes, it says disabled as well
[16:22] <icarus-c> b3rz3rk3r, both left/right keys
[16:22] <rob0917> b3rz3rk3r: on mine I rebooted and then was able to see wireless networks and connect
[16:23] <Kofte> hi
[16:23] <b3rz3rk3r> rob0917, iv already rebooted once since that usually fixes things, but no effect
[16:24] <rob0917> b3rz3rk3r: oh,don't know then but good luck
[16:24] <Icky> i just erased my windows install and installed ubuntu. i still get a "windows boot manager" error message. i'm thinking the bootloader is on a different drive than windows was installed, how do i remove it?
[16:24] <slimjimflim> how can i get a bash script to execute on double-click from the desktop etc?
[16:25] <Kofte> Long shot question: I'm having problems with the sound on an Acer Aspire laptop.  I know this problem is quite common, but I couldn't find a working solution.  Anybody knows anything helpful regarding this issue?
[16:25] <b3rz3rk3r> iv checked the wireless troubleshooting guide and it said to ask here and forums :/
[16:25] <icarus-c> Icky, install grub over it
[16:26] <icarus-c> slimjimflim, give it execute permissions, double click, select run in terminal
[16:26] <Icky> icarus-c: using a burned grub cd image?
[16:26] <rob0917> b3rz3rk3r: just a thought .Have you tried unplugging your router for 30 seconds then try to connect
[16:27] <slimjimflim> icarus-c: i have 'execute' (xubuntu)
[16:27] <ChaosR> when using xvnc4 to create an extra vnc desktop, it crashes every time if I try to connect to it with the error "XIO:  fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server"
[16:27] <icarus-c> Icky, eh.. no    if you have ubuntu already installed,  boot up a livecd, chroot to the ubuntu install and reinstall grub
[16:27] <ChaosR> anybody knows how to solve?
[16:27] <slimjimflim> and that doesn't do anything
[16:27] <slimjimflim> icarus-c: executes fine from cli
[16:27] <b3rz3rk3r> rob0917, its not a router issue since all my other devices connect fine. The wireless module on this laptop is detected and has  driver but cant be enabled for some reason :/
[16:27] <icarus-c> slimjimflim, i don't use xfce (thundar),  so no idea
[16:27] <slimjimflim> k
[16:28] <rob0917> I see ,just trying to help

[16:31] <Taejo> eric_: my mom's computer has that (I don't use metacity) so presumably it's a setting somewhere
[16:31] <Taejo> I doubt she changed anything

[16:37] <ehcah> If I need to grow my system drive and it is locked, wouldn't unmounting it first delete my current session?

[16:38] <ehcah> ji0hdi: Do you know if the 10.10 ISO has the option to boot from CD? I did not pay attention when I installed a few days back.
[16:38] <The_Snake> ehcah - use a live cd or pen, and tah use gparted
[16:38] <Gerwin> ehcah: Yes, it's a Live CD

[16:42] <ChaosR> Dr_Willis: point is, the vnc server on this computer crashes the second I connect to it
[16:42] <Dr_Willis> ChaosR:  theres other vncservers out there. vnc4server, tightvncserver, and i think a few more.

[17:11] <fewboo>  I created a new pgp key in the seashore program that comes by default with Ubuntu.  I wanted to encrypt a folder but then I noticed that under the right click options there was no encrypt option.
[17:11] <gilaniali> How does one judge a VPS server, if two VPS hosts are providing the same Mb Ram partitions, how does one choose one
[17:12] <Dr_Willis> fewboo:  You may need to install some extra packages for that feature
[17:12] <step21> gilaniali, I would try to find reviews about service etc on the net

[17:13] <rallias> Is there a way to tell postfix to send mail to different servers based on the domain of the server sending to?
[17:13] <magedragon25> who's paying attention that knows about vmware server??
[17:13] <rallias> magedragon25: whats your question?
[17:13] <JimmyHoffa> how do i get ubuntu to notice a printer thats on my network?
[17:13] <stax321> guys can you look at this screenshot, what is the problem here? http://trcll.im/xBtoZ?image_id=aba768a6cdf65ef12dc390cf03
[17:14] <stax321> oh shit the wrong link
[17:14] <rallias> JimmyHoffa: You select the proper driver, then identify what ip address the printer is at, then when it asks you for the ip address of the printer, you give it the ip address.
[17:14] <magedragon25> rallias, get to the part about the headers directory, and it says that my headers aren't the right version, which they are.....tried to re-install and even switched to a different kernel.....
[17:14] <IdleOne> !language | stax321
[17:15] <JimmyHoffa> where do i find the driver rallias?
[17:15] <rallias> In system -> administration -> printing
[17:15] <poine>  #ubuntustudio
[17:15] <rallias> magedragon25: what version?
[17:16] <magedragon25> server 2.0.2 and ubuntu 10.10 both 64 bit
[17:16] <vincent_> do you have the guts to commit suicide?
[17:16] <rallias> umm.. i really don't know then. Last I used was 1.0.1
[17:16] <magedragon25> oh...ok
[17:16] <wildc4rd_> evenin' all
[17:16] <magedragon25> thanks
[17:16] <ePirat> hi
[17:17] <rallias> vincent_: don't be serious. I have 2 friends of mine that commited suicide the day before the day before yesterday.
[17:17] <gilaniali> but is there a VPS service that ubuntu servers prefer
[17:17] <vincent_> :'(
[17:17] <gilaniali> step21: ^
[17:17] <rallias> magedragon25: I never had a problem with virtualbox though... don't know if thats what you need.
[17:17] <ePirat> how can i open the settings in the terminal? i mean wich command i need?
[17:17] <Dr_Willis> ePirat:  what settings?
[17:18] <vincent_> we all have to die some day, don't we? otherwise it gets too crowded here on earth
[17:18] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: system settings
[17:18] <magedragon25> rallias, it's for some clooage class stuff and it has to be vmware server

[17:18] <matts45acp> can someone tell me if i install ubuntu from a usb and i wanna dual boot (not wubi) will it partition for me
[17:18] <magedragon25> ...sollege'
[17:18] <magedragon25> college
[17:18] <Dr_Willis> ePirat:  and.. which system setting? You want to run the PROGRAM from the termiinal? or what exactly?
[17:18] <aloon> Still having problems with Nividia-current with 10.10. I got the 310M nvidia driver in and it works but I can not enable 3d desktop effects , ive tried to uninstall all compiz and reinstall from canoical etc , jockey doesnt see the driver, i'm on Sony Vaio F11
[17:18] <tom1> my menubar keeps disappearing.  How can I stop this from happening?
[17:18] <Dr_Willis> matts45acp:  the installer can auto resize/partition - yes.
[17:18] <kuro> good night
[17:18] <rallias> magedragon25: why? did they say?
[17:18] <step21> gilaniali, don't think so. if it can run linux it can run ubuntu
[17:18] <zangyef> Hi, ubuntu recognize my firs HD, where it is installed, but the second one no. It is a NTFS file system
[17:18] <Dr_Willis> tom1:  you mean the gnome panel? or the windows titlebars?
[17:19] <aloon> Nvidia used to be so easy
[17:19] <raven_> what is a live system for cluster nodes??
[17:19] <tom1> I believe its the gnome panel.
[17:19] <happolati> Hello friendly community. I have a problem playing swf videos. When I open a youtube video f.ex, it plays for one second then stops. gtk-gnash is using approx. 30% of CPU's resources. Can someone help me figure out what is happening? I am running gnash 0.8.8.
[17:19] <ePirat> Dr_Willis:  i want to open the gnome display settings panel
[17:19] <rallias> magedragon25: virtualbox is capible of exactly the same stuff... just a touch slower (maybe 50 kHz less power.
[17:19] <vincent_> rallias, so I guess you have the guts to do it?
[17:19] <Dr_Willis> matts45acp:  windows (some versions) can resize the windows partitions. and do it a lot faster then the ubuntuy installer can. thats how i normaly do it. let windows resize. then boot ubuntu installer. and let it partition the freed up unallocated space.
[17:19] <rallias> vincent_ this really isn't the appropriate location to speak of such a topic.
[17:20] <Dr_Willis> ePirat:  perhasp you want to run --> gnome-display-properties
[17:20] <magedragon25> rallias...that's it...it's faster...setting up a testing situation...server and client in vm for rhct studying
[17:20] <george> hey does anyone know any hacking tool kit for linux ubuntu 10.10
[17:20] <fewboo> Dr_Willis, This is not what I was talking about.  In all previous versions of ubuntu you could get the encryption option in the right click menu now that is not the case and the page you gave me is about some thing else all together.
[17:20] <rallias> magedragon25: rhct?
[17:20] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: YES! THX!
[17:20] <matts45acp> dr willis,   how much space should i use
[17:21] <Phi-Linux> Hi all. Does anyone know a good command line tool to post facebook status updates?
[17:21] <magedragon25> rallias, redhat certified technician
[17:21] <Dr_Willis> fewboo:  never nioticed it.  must be some extra nautiuls extension or somthing.
[17:21] <Dr_Willis> matts45acp:  depends on your needs.
[17:21] <matts45acp> and whats the number to type in to tell it that space
[17:21] <matts45acp> i dont need much really
[17:21] <Gerwin> %20?
[17:21] <george> does anyone know any hacking tool kit for ubuntu
[17:21] <matts45acp> just enough to fool around with it
[17:21] <Dr_Willis> matts45acp:  try 20gb then perhaps.
[17:21] <edbian> george, The terminal
[17:21] <rallias> magedragon25: try running the stuff from a redhat machine if your trying to get certified in it.
[17:22] <Gerwin> george: Ping, netstat, openssh :P
[17:22] <sresu> Its possible to rsyn over ssh?
[17:22] <Gerwin> That should get you started
[17:22] <magedragon25> that's why I need vmware server....so i can study at home
[17:22] <matts45acp> i may just let ubuntu unstaller partition, it will be easier for me
[17:22] <rallias> george: gcc, gpp, g#
[17:22] <george> thanx
[17:22] <Dr_Willis> magedragon25:  virtualbox i found to be MUCH easier to setup then vmware.
[17:22] <vincent_> rallias is there a proper place to speak of such things?
[17:22] <mokchuk> hhmmm
[17:22] <vincent_> rallias where is it?
[17:22] <zangyef> Hi, ubuntu detect my firs HD, where it is installed, but the second one no: it only tell me the size but  It does nothing about the content.  It's a NTFS file system
[17:23] <magedragon25> I have used virtualbox....i like vmware better
[17:23] <aloon> glx gears works for me now  ,nvidia splashscreen comes on and i get the nvidia settings manager , but no 3d effects , the screen blinks a bunch and then it always says "cant enable desktop effects" , anyone have that issue ?
[17:23] <rallias> vincent_ i don't know if its perfectly appropriate, but #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:23] <sresu> Hi Dr_Willis
[17:23] <Skaperen> is there a meta package to install all the KDE packages from kubuntu to ubuntu, so you'd have a merger of the two desktop systems, letting users individually choose between gnome and KDE ?
[17:23] <rallias> magedragon25: how do you like something that is obviously not doing what your asking it to do?
[17:23] <rallias> Skaperen: try kubuntu-desktop
[17:23] <Dr_Willis> rallias:  :) i was just thinking that also...
[17:23] <v3rr3z> Whats the lost+found folders on my Secondary and Tertiary HDDs?
[17:24] <magedragon25> I had vmware player...just need to use server for this
[17:24] <Skaperen> rallias: t/y
[17:24] <rallias> Dr_Willis: thats exactly why I shy from windows.
[17:24] <rallias> skaperen: yw
[17:24] <Dr_Willis> v3rr3z:  if the filesystem is fscked and files are found  - then can get put in there.
[17:24] <aloon> Jockey cant see my nvidia driver either
[17:24] <aloon> so I cant enable it that way
[17:24] <v3rr3z> Nothing to worry about.. Just something it will do..
[17:24] <Dr_Willis> aloon:  You could install the nvidia-current package.
[17:24] <vincent_> rallias it's not encouraged to speak about it there either
[17:24] <rallias> can someone help me set up my apache web server via webmin interface?
[17:24] <v3rr3z> I have a forth set in Fat32 and it doesnt have them.. is why I asked.
[17:24] <chocobanana> Hi everyone!!!!
[17:25] <rallias> vincent_: try #suicide_kabana
[17:25] <Dr_Willis> rallias:  better to not use webmin at all.
[17:25] <aloon> Dr , thx , that worked in Lucid , but not in 10.10
[17:25] <Dr_Willis> aloon:  it worked for me here in 10.10 just today. :)
[17:25] <Dr_Willis> aloon:  may depend on the video card I guess.
[17:25] <Skaperen> rallias: sorry, I've only set up apache via emacs on config files
[17:25] <rallias> Dr_Willis: I don't have access to the ssh atm.
[17:25] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: and wich is the command for the login window properties? (where i can set auto-login, display start sound...)
[17:25]  * Skaperen has done too much command line in his life
[17:25] <aloon> tried many times , was steered towards a download from nvidia site that works , it did .. but I cant enable desktop effects
[17:25] <Dr_Willis> ePirat:  try 'gnome<tabkey>' and see..    are you missing all your menus or somting?
[17:25] <aloon> I think its a compiz issue
[17:26] <rallias> Skaperen: can you send me example config files?
[17:26] <vincent_> that room is empty rallias
[17:26] <rallias> !spam vincent_
[17:26] <krannx> All of the windows on my widget layer move up on the screen ~100px every time I open it, they go right off the screen if I just hit F9 over and over...why? even setting the windows to be unmovable in window rules doesnt do anything
[17:26] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: yes, i have a strange bug...
[17:26] <fewboo> Dr_Willis, yes it is called crypt-manager.py
[17:26] <vincent_> spam!
[17:26] <Dr_Willis> !find crypt-manager.py
[17:26] <vincent_> !spam
[17:26] <Skaperen> rallias: the ones I did under ubuntu server are at work ... my apache at home is not ubuntu
[17:26] <aloon> Dr_Willis I tried uninstalling all compiz and then reinstall it from sotware centre , but it didnt seem to do it
[17:27] <rallias> Skaperen: don't matter i am semi-intelligent enough to adapt them.
[17:27] <Dr_Willis> aloon:  thats windows thinking.  :)
[17:27] <zangyef> Hi, ubuntu detect my firs HD, where it is installed, but the not the second one: it only tell me the size but nothing about the content. It's a NTFS file system. Please help needed
[17:27] <aloon> i'll get it eventually , at least the nvidia driver works
[17:27] <Dr_Willis> aloon:  if theres some driver/compiz issue with your specific video chipset. the forums may have some mention of it also.
[17:27] <chocobanana> Anyone has a recommendation for a good wireless router that, more importantly than speed, can handle many (15-30) wireless clients without crashing or slowing down?
[17:27] <rallias> zangyef: look for a folder /dev/sdb1
[17:27] <Skaperen> rallias: it's also older Apache ... really, not a good examble
[17:28] <rallias> Skaperen: If i give you ssh access will you do it for me?
[17:28] <VoidBeta> Hey, folks -- I just installed Ubuntu 10.10 (amd64) and upon reboot after install, I get a black screen with a blinking grey cursor, and no further action. Any ideas?
[17:28] <aloon> Dr_Willis it may have to do with ubuntu tweak ... they have a couple levels of compiz installs and then theres the ones that come with
[17:28] <rallias> chocobanana: anything wireless N
[17:28] <Dr_Willis> VoidBeta:  ive had issues where ive had to  reinstall the grub menu after an install. or after some updates.. it gives a similer 'blinking cursor'
[17:28] <rallias> chocobanana: try lots of wireless repeaters.
[17:28] <Dr_Willis> !fixgrub | VoidBeta
[17:29] <VoidBeta> Thanks!
[17:29] <fearphage> i just upgraded to 10.10 and now my desktop icons are missing and i can't rightclick on the desktop. already tried running nautilus but that just opens a folder view. tried restarting x with ctrl-alt-backspace. still nothing. any help?
[17:29] <Skaperen> rallias: I could at a later time ... but not right now ... how many domains are you trying to do?
[17:29] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: seems like there are no login settings...
[17:29] <rallias> Skaperen: just one
[17:29] <chocobanana> rallias: repeaters? The issue is not range, it's mostly handling a lot of clients.... You think the repeaters can still help?
[17:29] <zangyef> rallias: no such a folder
[17:29] <Dr_Willis> VoidBeta:  some how i managed to make a usb flash drive with grub2 on it. that managed to boot my system. :) so if it goofs up. i boot the flash drive.. that boots the HD.. i rerun sudo update-grub
[17:29] <Skaperen> rallias: any SSL/HTTPS in it?
[17:30] <ddaygold> is there a way to have two network interfaces (wifi and a cell phone modem) be up simultaneously and route bittorent through one and web brower traffic through the other?
[17:30] <rallias> chocobanana: repeaters are used to make multiple clients look like one
[17:30] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: the problem is, that i enabled auto-login, now i have this bug, now i want to turn it off again but i have no menus
[17:30] <rallias> ddaygold: yes. How you do it is a different question...
[17:30] <Skaperen> ddaygold: yes, via complex source routing
[17:30] <rallias> ddaygold: it involves using iptables
[17:31] <zayr> how to install alsa against pulsecrapaudio ?
[17:31] <Dr_Willis> ePirat:  you can always go to the console and 'sudo service gdm stop'  i guess.. theres some binary that had all the gnome-settings icons in it.. i saw today.. but not sure what the binary name was
[17:31] <ddaygold> @rallias: how do you get  my name in front like that?
[17:31] <rallias> zangyef: hate to ask such a question... is the power cable in the hard drive plugged in?
[17:31] <rallias> ddaygold: by typing in ddaygold:
[17:32] <zangyef> rallias: I found the hd using Disk Utility. The folder is dev/sdb. But no other information
[17:32] <zayr> whats the package ?
[17:32] <ddaygold> oh, nothing special then
[17:32] <teage> is ethernet address the same as mac address??
[17:32] <rallias> zangyef: try using gparted
[17:32] <rallias> teage: essentually yes
[17:32] <khalidmian> hi newbie here need help with ubuntu install
[17:32] <ddaygold> rallias: thanks
[17:32] <teage> ty rallias
[17:32] <zayr> none knows ?
[17:32] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: i am confused now... o.O
[17:32] <khalidmian> what install is better grub or wubi
[17:32] <zayr> !help
[17:32] <rallias> teage: ethernet address is an old name for mac address from the days that more then one computer connected to a router using one line.
[17:32] <elvirolo> hi everyone
[17:33] <Dr_Willis> ePirat:  i got an icon here called 'control center' that has all the gnome settings tools/icons in it...
[17:33] <AnthIste> hi guys, how do you get a wallpaper to stretch across two monitors under gnome?
[17:33] <teage> to see my eth address is command (Iwconfig) right?
[17:33] <rallias> khalidmian: neither. Wubi is used for sharing space between windows and linux, grub for splitting them up (linux can still read windows and windows can still read linux if you configure properly)
[17:33] <IdleOne> teage: ifconfig
[17:33] <Dr_Willis> ePirat:  it seems to be called 'gnome-control-center'
[17:33] <zangyef> rallias: thanks
[17:33] <rallias> teage: yes. lwconfig eth0 if you want device eth0
[17:33] <teage> thanks IdleOne
[17:33] <elvirolo> I'd like to know how one changes the mount options for USB devices that are mounted automatically when plugged in (my ipod in this case)
[17:33] <Ray2> Lucid 10.04..Upon boot I get an error message.."no suitable mode found" and "unknown command found" How do I fix
[17:34] <rallias> i mean ifconfig
[17:34] <khalidmian> rallias: i installed ubuntu using wubi but can only run in under safe mode
[17:34] <zayr> There is no binary package in ubuntu for alsa ?
[17:34] <zayr> or whatever
[17:34] <rallias> ray2: can you get into the full os?
[17:34] <rallias> khalidmian: i dunno...
[17:34] <jo__> hey everyone, something weard, ubuntu just shuts itself down when I'm importing my rather large music librairy into rythmbox from an external hard drive. Any ideas what it can be, it is rather annoying
[17:34] <Dr_Willis> or whatever? alsa is used by ubuntu, pulse audio uses alsa..
[17:35] <rallias> jo__: doing it one at a time.
[17:35] <asdf_> with ubuntu 10.10 wav file dont work. why ?
[17:35] <Ray2> rallias Yes the distro boots
[17:35] <jo__> rallias: what do you mean?
[17:35] <zayr> Dr_Willis: pulseaudio uses alsa ? :-O
[17:35] <khalidmian>  i installed ubuntu using wubi but can only run in under safe mode as i have an nvidia card i am a new ubuntu user and dont know how to configure my video card
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> zayr:  yes.. thats how it works...
[17:35] <jo__> rallias: I folder a the time? I have a fieuw 1000
[17:35] <Dr_Willis> kernel -> alsa -> pulse audio -> audio apps.
[17:35] <rallias> ray2: go into system -> admin -> synaptic doing a refresh then select upgrades then apply
[17:36] <Dr_Willis> khalidmian:  install the nvida drivers yet?
[17:36] <rallias> jo__ well less then all at a time. Or you could set the music library to that external interface
[17:36] <fewboo> Dr_Willis, I am surprised you never noticed it.  Thanks for the link any way.  I was wondering about why was it that my home folder was not encrypted when I checked that box.  Any way I installed now truecrypt.
[17:36] <jo__> rallias: I also use a .is_audio_player file
[17:36] <zayr> Dr_Willis: alsa and pulseaudio are different things....
[17:36] <rkpisanu> with ubuntu 10.10 wav file doesnt play. why ?
[17:36] <khalidmian> Dr_Willis: i shall reinstall ubuntu and open chat again for assist
[17:36] <rallias> rkpisanu: do you have the decoder installed?
[17:36] <Dr_Willis> khalidmian:  i dont reccomend using wubi.
[17:37] <rallias> how do i find ffmpeg-codecs-extras?
[17:37] <rkpisanu> what's decoder rallias ?
[17:37] <khalidmian> Dr_Willis: thanks for info
[17:37] <Ray2> rallias, Thanks
[17:37] <khalidmian> i will install using grub
[17:37] <rallias> rkpisanu: something to decode it so that they can be plaied
[17:37] <rkpisanu> how i can install it  rallias ?
[17:38] <ePirat> Dr_Willis: OH! Thanks it worked!
[17:38] <rallias> rkpisanu: i am trying to find that out. Look for ffmpeg in synaptic and look for extras
[17:38] <AnthIste>  hi guys, how do you get a wallpaper to stretch across two monitors under gnome?
[17:38] <rallias> rkipisanu: the one that contains both words and not chromium is the one you want.
[17:40] <rallias> rkipisanu: if I could find it for you, I would, but my dns servers doing funny things to me

[17:52] <bullgard4> b3rz3rk3r: The fact that your wireless is not functioning, is probably due to a hardware peculiarity of your computer. I am not familiar with your hardware. I am sorry that I cannot help you. --  May be you can find a hint by googling your computer type, and the catchwords 'Maverick' and 'wireless'.

How could I connec

[17:57] <StaRetji1> linduxed: and thx for reply :)
[17:57] <akaedintov> i need help anyone... Why ubuntu is always providing low bandwith ??  In windows it always brings the highest..
[17:57] <StaRetji1> linduxed: maverick, latest
[17:58] <linduxed> StaRetji1: i guess it could have something to do with the session not being authenticated
[17:58] <linduxed> StaRetji1: what DM are you using?
[17:58] <awnek> hello
[17:58] <Skaperen> sib: most of those characters came out as umlauts and the like on my screen
[17:58] <StaRetji1> linduxed: actually, I've done autologin. Ehm, DM?
[17:59] <linduxed> desktop manager

[17:59] <zteam> Hi
[17:59] <awnek> I have been having the worst problem.... I had ubuntu on my netbook but have been unable to install it back. Everytime I get to the select keyboard layout screen it freezes after hitting next... Anyone seen this before?
[18:00] <zteam> Anybody here knows how to change the loginscreen in Ubuntu 10.10?
[18:00] <ikonia> awnek: check the launchpad.net for known bugs, that's a good place to start
[18:00] <akaedintov> i cant see over 1 mbit in ubuntu. but in windows , it was like 4.5 mbits.  Someone help please ?
[18:00] <yapsol> Do you use download managers to achieve these speeds in Windows?
[18:00] <Dr_Willis> awnek:  you coukld try the alternative installer cd also.
[18:01] <zteam> I used to run gksudo -u gdm dbus-launch gnome-appearance-properties in 10.04 but doesn't seem to work anymore
[18:01] <cybastl> hi i have a logitech mx510 mouse but only 2 buttons are recognized by ubuntu 10.10
[18:01] <zteam> :-/
[18:01] <pionar> anyone having problems with flash in chromium, as in, it didn't install the plugin?
[18:01] <cybastl> is there an easy way to fix this?
[18:01] <linduxed> it sounds like it's a problem with the authentication, i'd guess that because it autologins it doesn't start an authenticated session
[18:01] <akaedintov> yapsol , these are the results by speedtest.net
[18:01] <linduxed> this is just a guess theough
[18:01] <alkamid> hello
[18:01] <Dr_Willis> cybastl:  i recall there being some wiki pag3es/forums threads on that topic. I never bother with the extra buttons :)
[18:01] <linduxed> StaRetji1: forgot to highligt
[18:02] <alkamid> do you know a memo/flashcard app that allows writing in japanese hiragana (with IBUS)
[18:02] <awnek> Dr. I have seen bugs posted on there but no resolutions... Is there a logfile I can look at?
[18:02] <Dr_Willis> awnek:  no idea. proberly is. but that early in the boot process.. it may not be easy to access
[18:02] <linduxed> StaRetji1: if it is something like that you need to start xfce with ck-launch-session
[18:02] <alkamid> I've tried Anki and Mnemosyne - none of them allows hiragana
[18:02] <StaRetji1> linduxed: I could agree, how can I autologin with password, or to automatically authenticate. This is making problem, I have xbmc autostarting on my netbook and it hangs because of this. It asks for password and starts xbmc. If I could remove this somehow
[18:03] <awnek> I am installing from a USB drive though
[18:03] <akaedintov> should i be using 10.04 instead of 10.10 ?? 10.10 is not that good i guess.
[18:03] <rww> akaedintov: pick whichever you want to use and use it...
[18:03] <Dr_Willis> awnek:  the alternavive installer can  be set up on a flash drive and installed from. it uses a text based installer. so often works in problem cases
[18:03] <george> does anybody have any knowledge about rerouting phone calls
[18:03] <akaedintov> rww what difference they have
[18:03] <ikonia> george: that's nothing to do with ubuntu
[18:03] <awnek> I actually might have found a way to get by it... I wasn't able to live run it either but I just selected a strange language for installation screens and that worked
[18:04] <rww> akaedintov: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MaverickMeerkat/ReleaseNotes has a list of things in 10.10 that aren't in 10.04.
[18:04] <awnek> Dr_Willis: Where can I find some info on the alternative installer?
[18:04] <StaRetji1> linduxed: I've ran ck-launch-session from terminal, but it is still the same
[18:04] <Dr_Willis> awnek:  i dont even recall it asking for a language here. It defaulted to english. unkless i hit a key to get to the options
[18:04] <Ascavasaion> I have all my mails in a mail folder from a previous installation... how do I get it into my current Evolution?
[18:04] <zayr> part of what package is alsamixer ?
[18:04] <rww> akaedintov: Also of note, 10.04 is supported on desktops until April 2013, whereas 10.10 is supported until April 2012.
[18:04] <Dr_Willis> awnek:  its avail at the normal ubuntu download sites and torrents.
[18:04] <Xase> So I'm looking to boot my windows 7 retail disc off of a hard drive partition, as now my daughter has sucessfully broken my disc tray, can grub accomplish this?, and does anyone know a rough example entry that'll help me set it up? I am aware I will need to repair grub and have already set up a thumb drive to do so.
[18:05] <ikonia> Xase: no
[18:05] <bernard__> can any1 tell me how to share files between 10.04 and xp
[18:05] <zayr> ikonia: Hi could you help me ?
[18:05] <Xase> ikonia, that was a quick no.
[18:05] <ikonia> zayr: with what ?
[18:05] <ikonia> Xase: correct
[18:05] <Xase> Why?
[18:05] <Dr_Willis> Xase:  ive heard its not too kard to make a win7 iso onto a flash drive.  check in #windows perhaps
[18:05] <ikonia> Xase: because no it can't do it
[18:05] <zayr> ikonia: I want install / use alsa over the pulseaudio
[18:05] <Memnochxx> Xase: can your computer not boot from usb?
[18:05] <Xase> Dr_Willis, that would be so easy, if my only thumb drive was not a gig.
[18:05] <Xase> ;)
[18:05] <akaedintov> rww , then 10.04 it is. I have difficulties in 10.10
[18:05] <Memnochxx> Buy a bigger one for $5?
[18:06] <Luca> Hello. Anyone know why most games are really low fps on ubuntu? (or atleast in my case) They run fine on Windows
[18:06] <Kartagis> !irc
[18:06] <Dr_Willis> seen 4gb on salwe for $6 this weekend
[18:06] <akaedintov> rww , nvidia drivers are not working , bandwith sucks
[18:06] <ikonia> Luca: because your using wine
[18:06] <Xase> Memnochxx, It can, but my External does not like running bootable medias.
[18:06] <qwertyjustin> hello
[18:06] <qwertyjustin> what is the ubuntu 10.10 default dvd authoring program?
[18:06] <Xase> I cannot. I am broke for the next couple months or so with Christmas and my daughter.
[18:06] <Luca> Can wine be tweaked for higher fps or is there nothing I can do?
[18:06] <zteam> Luca: Windows games or native linux games?
[18:06] <ikonia> Xase: sit it out then, until you have the money
[18:06] <Memnochxx> Skip mcdonalds one day
[18:06] <Xase> I can't spend 5 dollars on a flash drive when my daughter needs diapers ;)
[18:06] <Luca> Windows steam games
[18:07] <Dr_Willis> Xase:  ive heard that you can some how copy the iso file contents to hard drive also and have it boot. but never done it.
[18:07] <haffe> Sounds like sound economic policy.
[18:07] <Dr_Willis> Luca:  it will totally depend on the game.
[18:07] <zteam> Luca: Wine, works good for some games
[18:07] <zayr> ikonia: i didnt have problem with alsa but with pulseadio my sound car isnt working good
[18:07] <Luca> Nah tested a few all low fps
[18:07] <ikonia> Dr_Willis: booting iso's is possible with grub, but not practical
[18:07] <Xase> Hmm ikonia I will just try myself then... I usually end up having to do so, as I -NEVER- manage to get help here really.
[18:07] <Dr_Willis> Luca:  it still DEPENDS on the game..
[18:07] <zteam> Luca: but not all, I can recommend you to try with playonlinux
[18:07] <Luca> can someone recommend a game that should run smooth? natively?
[18:07] <Xase> Dr_Willis, So have I, which is why I came seeking the pros help.
[18:07] <ikonia> Xase: you've been helped, and told it's not really possible
[18:07] <Dr_Willis> ikonia:  i boot ubuntu iso's all the time. :) works good.. Never had a win7 iso to test.
[18:07] <Luca> I am using playonlinux
[18:08] <Dr_Willis> Luca:  thats still using wine.
[18:08] <zayr> Luca: most of / all opengl games works fine
[18:08] <Xase> Dr_Willis, I've also booted a ubuntu ISO of a partition, never a windows one though.
[18:08] <ikonia> Xase: I can see your also asking in #grub, so I'm sure they can help you
[18:08] <Garandir> Does freenode have a memo serv?
[18:08] <cybastl> sry for asking again i found the form entry to conf my mx510 mouse but there is not input device entry in my xorg.conf ?
[18:08] <Dr_Willis> Luca:  Plants Vs Zombies works good here for me..  as do many other popcap games.
[18:08] <ikonia> Garandir: it does, ask the guys in #freenode
[18:08] <Xase> Yes ikonia thank you.
[18:08] <Luca> no even the old counter strike cs 1.6 lags
[18:08] <Garandir> Thanks ikonia
[18:08] <zteam> Luca: Well, then it's not much you can do
[18:08] <zayr> Luca: turn off compiz stuff
[18:08] <Luca> ah, yeh, i suspected that I will try that
[18:09] <zteam> Luca: you can try out cedega, or look on winehq and see if there are any tweaks for that game
[18:09] <zayr> so none can help me with alsa ?
[18:09] <zayr> and there is no guide in wiki
[18:10] <zteam> zayr: whats wrong with it?
[18:10] <zayr> zteam: i want use alsa over the pulseaudio
[18:11] <qwertyjustin> what is the default ubuntu dvd authoring program?
[18:11] <zteam> zayr: okey, why?
[18:11] <Dr_Willis> qwertyjustin:  for making Data dvd? brasero i think. but theres better ones in the package manager.
[18:11] <zayr> zteam: doesnt matter why :P...but my sound car isnt working properly with pulseaudio
[18:11] <Garandir> How do I msg freenode server on Empathy?
[18:11] <qwertyjustin> Dr_Willis: what about for iso burning?
[18:12] <Dr_Willis> qwertyjustin:  several apps can do that also.
[18:12] <qwertyjustin> whats official for ubuntu ?
[18:12] <Dr_Willis> qwertyjustin:  default i thinkis brasero also for that. I tend to use k3b for my needs
[18:12] <StaRetji1> linduxed: I've added .xinitrc to my home dir and it starts xfce4 like this: exec ck-launch-session startxfce4 However "System policy prevents modification of system settings" still comes up :/
[18:12] <awnek> So, I was able to choose a installation language and choose a japan keyboard layout. I got an error(usally it freezes). I was able to ingore the erorr and continue with the install..
[18:12] <Dr_Willis> !burn
[18:12] <qwertyjustin> ok cheers
[18:12] <Dr_Willis> qwertyjustin:  gnomebaker is much better then brasero i find.
[18:12] <Xase> Dr_Willis if you're interested I'll be glad to let you know my results in the matter.
[18:12] <zteam> zayr: I think you can just uninstall the pulseaudio package in synaptic, and it should configure alsa as default
[18:13] <Dr_Willis> Xase:  i dont have any win7 iso's only 'recovery' disk sets for my one win7 box.
[18:13] <Garandir> How do I message the server on Empathy?
[18:13] <Xase> Ah :D
[18:13] <Xase> Ok
[18:13] <zayr> zteam: i installed alsa-source also :S

[18:19] <edbian> demlasjr, Who cares.  I think you have a firewall running somewhere between you and the internet.
[18:19] <Gerwin> demlasjr: curl?
[18:19] <edbian> demlasjr, Are there any physical devices between you and the internet?
[18:19] <uLinux> is there a "run command" applet embeded to panel?
[18:19] <demlasjr> is a simple switch
[18:19] <zteam> zayr: okey, then I don't really have any idea....
[18:19] <zayr> zteam: seems PulseAudio is something similar to Windows Vista , 7 system cuz i ade there similar problems too...but not on XP

[18:22] <edbian> bencc, no
[18:22] <demlasjr> Gerwin: curl I guess is installed
[18:22] <demlasjr> not sure...
[18:22] <b3rz3rk3r> ZykoticK9, the hardware and driver are there, but cant be enabled and im stumped as to why?
[18:22] <demlasjr> edbian: any chance to check it ?
[18:22] <marco32> with live cd 10.10 resolution on my sony vaio z11z9e is perfect..after install only with vesa mode on xorg.conf i can see screen
[18:22] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, What is the name of the driver listed?
[18:22] <zteam> zayr: that your card doesn't work in later windows versions either
[18:22] <zayr> zteam: but it works with alsa :P
[18:22] <ZykoticK9> b3rz3rk3r, right clicking on nm-applet and enable fails?
[18:22] <bencc> ZykoticK9, edbian: thanks
[18:22] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, driver=iwlagn driverversion=2.6.35-22-generic firmware=228.61.2.24
[18:23] <edbian> demlasjr, I doubt the switch has a firewall.  I don't know how to check it
[18:23] <zteam> zayr: Well if I were you I would just try to reinstall the alsamixer
[18:23] <b3rz3rk3r> ZykoticK9, its just greyed out
[18:23] <zayr> zteam: how ?
[18:23] <zteam> zayr: and see what happens
[18:23] <Guest5389> speak spanish??
[18:23] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, What does this show you "sudo lsmod | grep iwlagn"  without quotes?
[18:23] <ZykoticK9> !es | Guest5389
[18:23] <believe0zijian> halo
[18:23] <demlasjr> edbian: I tried without it and worked, also with other unix OS worked too
[18:24] <edbian> demlasjr, You tried to do what without what?
[18:24] <sysfet> whats the major difference betwwen fedora and ubuntu?
[18:24] <aerosolapple> im having some trouble getting starcraft 2 to display properly in wine
[18:24] <aerosolapple> when i get to the login screen for battle.net is is pixelated and if i quit it locks my computer up
[18:24] <demlasjr> edbian: without the switch
[18:24] <zteam> zayr: try with sudo aptitude reinstall alsa-utils
[18:24] <aerosolapple> ive already tried #winehq

[18:24] <aerosolapple> has anyone else had a similar issue?
[18:25] <edbian> demlasjr, Well then the problem is in the switch! :)  I don't know how to configure those with ubuntu though.
[18:25] <mun__> hi
[18:25] <zteam> zayr: if that doesn't work try to purge the package and then reinstall it again
[18:25] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, So it's loaded and working...
[18:25] <marco32> anybody can help me with video on z11z9e sony vaio?
[18:25] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, Is there an enable wireless check box in the nm-applet?
[18:25] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, exactly... but cant be enabled?! it's really odd
[18:25] <mun__> my root, swap and home are in an extended partition. can i still shrink the size of my root?
[18:25] <demlasjr> edbian: no...I tried without the switch and the wget still didn't worked....but with fedora the network is working
[18:25] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, yes, but its greyed out
[18:26] <mun__> not just the root, but shrink the size of the whole extended partition?
[18:26] <edbian> demlasjr, sudo iptables -L
[18:26] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, sudo modprobe iwlagn
[18:26] <gilaniali> in `man write` it says see also talk(1), wall(1) but there is no entry for man talk. Do I have to install it separetely?
[18:26] <demlasjr> edbian: let me check....never had this problem in ubuntu.... I don't give 2 cents on fedora :)
[18:26] <edbian> demlasjr, :)
[18:27] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, accepted but no output. was there meant to be something?
[18:27] <onaogh> in gnome panels, the notification area notifies only for evolution email client, how i can make it to work for thunderbird ??!!
[18:27] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, no output means "it did not fail" check the nm-applet again
[18:27] <zteam> zayr: if that doesn't work you to hunt ubuntuforums for your soundcard
[18:27] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, nothing. same as before
[18:27] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, sudo iwlist scan
[18:28] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, interface doesnt support scanning. network is down
[18:28] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, This commands tells the system to use the card and scan for available wireless networks.  It does so as root.  I'm trying to see if your user doesn't have permissions
[18:28] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, It said that for every interface?
[18:28] <aaron11> Hello there my people. I have a problem while running virtual box. The console output can be found here: http://pastebin.com/Zh9NmF9P . I cannot run my vista machine without having an error. Thank you
[18:28] <zteam> Anyone know how to change the loginscreen in ubuntu?
[18:28] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, yes, save for the network is down part.. thats limited to the wireless
[18:29] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, What is your card listed as in sudo lspci ??  Perhaps you have the wrong driver in there.
[18:29] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, That means that card isn't working.  It should have either listed networks or said "none found"

[18:32] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, made sure its onwhen booting too since i had issues with that in previous releases
[18:32] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, sudo iwlist ?
[18:32] <Dice-Man> chiques, you should warn webmasters about it
[18:32] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, clever.

[18:36] <deboerdn2000> Hi
[18:36] <rreck> marco: what kind of help?
[18:36] <zteam> forgottenwizard: Yes you can tell the system to not upgrade some packages BUT then the packages that depend on them will not be upgraded either of course
[18:36] <rreck> marco32: what kind of help?
[18:36] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, I think you have the wireless interface configured in your /etc/network/interfaces file.  This usually tells nm-applet to ignore that interface.  it would explain why the "network is down" and why the card works but won't let you do anything.
[18:36] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, the only thing in that file is : auto lo iface lo inet loopback
[18:36] <forgottenwizard> zteam: Nice. Where could I find the docs for this?
[18:36] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, Damn!
[18:36] <marco32> rreck sony vaio z11z9e and live cd ubuntu 10.10

[18:37] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, look at dmesg, see anything about your wirless in there?  Look closer to the end.  The beginning is very low lever stuff.
[18:37] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, damn because there is no listing?
[18:37] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, Yes.  That file isn't the problem like I thought.
[18:37] <ZykoticK9> khalid, do you have a hotkey on your laptop to change displayed (try that first)
[18:38] <dimbos> how to open the port 13?
[18:38] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, Look at the output dmesg.  Pastebin it if you want me to look at it too
[18:38] <zteam> forgottenwizard: you don't need to...just open synaptic and select a package -> go to package menu lock version
[18:38] <soby> /var/log/message file is getting filled with this message  kernel: [ 5826.264991] [18:38] <mun__> is 10.10 a worthy upgrade from 10.04?

[18:39] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, Can you show me some more stuff around that?  There are no errors.  Only basic "I found this hardware" type messages

[18:45] <chiques> I'm using a WINE application which only communicates using 'COM#' ports. How can I map this to tty ports in ubuntu?
[18:45] <IdleOne> !language | zteam

[18:46] <fireboi> Zteam: my HDDs arent even dtected
[18:46] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, if i remember right, 9.10 worked out the box with my wifi.. so i might just go back to that if we cant fix this
[18:46] <aaron11> onaogh, Ok i updated but still the same thing
[18:46] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, remind me, scanning listed wireless networks?
[18:47] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, sudo iwlist scan    that is?
[18:47] <onaogh> aaron11, the error msg i checked also said that u have to update the kernel, can u "uname -r" and let me see
[18:47] <fireboi>  <fireboi> Zteam: my HDDs arent even dtected
[18:47] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, cant scan anything, because the card wont enable to do so
[18:47] <zteam> fireboi: Do you mean that you can't see your disk from BIOS for example?
[18:47] <fireboi> i can see one

[18:49] <magicianlord> Good afternoon, sirs.
[18:49] <WolfDogDesigns> Hi all. If im running a command to open a graphical program (evince in this case). But the script is run as root, and not within the X session, what do I add to the command to get it to open under the user <x> and in the X display?
[18:49] <zteam> fireboi: what?? if bios tells you, that your harddisk are broken, that's not caused by Ubuntu
[18:49] <StaRetji1> I mean, I have a user test, I want it to be admin
[18:49] <rreck> how can i search menuconfig for something?
[18:49] <magicianlord> StaRetji1: gpasswd -a USERNAME group
[18:49] <aaron11> http://pastebin.com/Zh9NmF9P
[18:49] <fireboi> no, my drives stopped being detected after a WUBI install

[18:50] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, if it helps, can i give you guest remote desktop access?
[18:50] <StaRetji1> magicianlord: thx, does it mean gpasswd -a test admin ?
[18:50] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, Ignoring unknown interface wlan0=wlan0
[18:50] <StaRetji1> magicianlord: or test root
[18:50] <WolfDogDesigns> zaxonspox, sudo runs as the user with admin privilages. .. the script is being run as root, i need it to open as from a normal user. .. can you sudo to a normal user?
[18:51] <mun__> is 10.10 a worthy upgrade from 10.04?
[18:51] <celldweller1591> ye
[18:51] <onaogh> aaron11, sudo apt-get isntall linux-headers-`uname -r`
[18:51] <onaogh> aaron11, sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
[18:51] <celldweller1591> mun__: yes
[18:51] <onaogh> That should get you the proper headers for your kernel version. From the error in your logs it appears that your not running the generic kernel.
[18:51] <WolfDogDesigns> zaxonspox, also, in the current display, else I get 'Cannot open display'
[18:51] <zteam> fireboi: Ubuntu, cannot damage your hardware, but if I were you, I go and download the harddrive manufacters disk testing tool
[18:51] <mun__> celldweller1591, but it seems there are only updates to the theme, volume changer.
[18:52] <_doswell_> is there a directory somewhere for commands here?
[18:52] <celldweller1591> well, if we talk about stability and bugs, 10.10 is way better
[18:52] <aaron11> onaogh, linux-headers-2.6.34 is already the newest version.
[18:53] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, I don't know what else to try.  I'm sorry!
[18:53] <onaogh> ok then setup the vboxdev
[18:53] <edbian> Good luck
[18:53] <celldweller1591> 2.6.35-22 is there..download and install it
[18:53] <onaogh> aaron11, sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup

[18:54] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, haha.. thats ok mate. Really appreciate you trying so hard. What do you suggest, should i keep going back through my archives of releases until iget one that works again and then update form there?
[18:54] <fireboi> no I think it was a messed up WUBI install that broke everything
[18:54] <hmnsh18> !grub
[18:54] <fireboi> fo rm
[18:54] <ChogyDan> aaron11: why are you using 2.6.34?
[18:54] <edbian> b3rz3rk3r, I suspect that 9.10 will work flawlessly
[18:54] <onaogh> ChogyDan, he is using BT4, and i think BT4 is using modified kernel
[18:55] <onaogh> Customized kernel in other words
[18:55] <WolfDogDesigns> can anyone help? id be happy not running as a separate user, but what can I add to a command to specify the current X display? (if command is run from outside X)
[18:55] <ChogyDan> onaogh: ah, ok
[18:55] <b3rz3rk3r> edbian, there isnt a rollback feature that i remember though.. so if i install that and it works fine, and then i update and it breaks.. i would have to reinstall again?
[18:55] <BUGabundo> hi everyone
[18:56] <aaron11> ChogyDan, yes
[18:56] <noob-tux> OMG nobody cares? how can i put a playlist on my banshee? anyone?

[19:02] <venky10> onaogh: I'm using hardy :)
[19:02] <FIReun> any compelling reason to run 32bit ubuntu vs 64bit on a new dual core atom proc system?
[19:02] <FIReun> I would think the 64bit would get a slight lead in performance on the atom over the 32bit (and lord knows it needs all the help it can get)
[19:02] <FIReun> but flash is not nearly as usable
[19:03] <onaogh> qwertyjustin, both PCs on same LAN ?
[19:03] <edbian> FIReun, The performance boost is minimal.
[19:03] <FIReun> edbian: yes, but I'll take 5%
[19:03] <onaogh> qwertyjustin, ubuntu got firewall enabled ?
[19:03] <drmessano> FIReun, some of the 64-bit applications are still a little flaky.. Flash being a good example... though the latest alpha is pretty stable
[19:03] <ChogyDan> FIReun: have you compared conservative vs ondemand cpu governers?
[19:03] <Pilif12p> on 10.10 why do i have Fspot and Shotwell?
[19:03] <edbian> FIReun, The point of 64bit is to allows the use of more than 32.Gb of ram.  Besides general stability (the 64 bit software is not as well tested) there is not advantage to 32 bit
[19:04] <pollywog> I suddenly lost sound yesterday in Lucid.  How do I begin diagnosing this problem?  I have not uninstalled anything
[19:04] <Gerwin> Pilif12p: So you can try Shotwell if you want to, but can keep using F-Spot if you don't like it.
[19:04] <qwertyjustin> onaogh: is gufw the official ubuntu firewall?
[19:04] <magicianlord> edbian: it's also faster
[19:04] <FIReun> edbian: I read that the PAE stuff in a 32bit system to allow for ~4G and greater ram adds a slight overhead penalty
[19:04] <edbian> FIReun, yes
[19:04] <Pilif12p> can i remove one of them?
[19:04] <edbian> magicianlord, 64bit is slightly faster
[19:04] <FIReun> edbian: and so for a low power system to begin with, 64bit seems the most efficient choice
[19:04] <_doswell_> is there a date that "ubuntu !).!) will come out as a update on "ubuntu 10.04?
[19:04] <edbian> Pilif12p, You can remove any package you like! :)
[19:05] <onaogh> qwertyjustin, gufw is the front end to ufw, yes, ufw is built in ubuntu, but by default it is disabled, check whether it is enabled or no
[19:05] <magicianlord> yes. if you have a 64-bit processor, install 64-bit ubuntu.
[19:05] <onaogh> qwertyjustin, are both computers on same lan ?
[19:05] <magicianlord> do not worry about flash. flash is evil.
[19:05] <deadroot> does anybody know why my $JAVA_HOME variable isn't being expanded?
[19:05] <FIReun> I've also heard the kernel in ubuntu 10.10 2.6.35 has shown terrible drops for atom based system performance
[19:05] <galerien> but usefull
[19:05] <onaogh> deadroot, expanded means ?
[19:05] <zteam> doswell: it's already out
[19:05] <qwertyjustin> onaogh: gufw is disabled
[19:05] <k-rad> when will the next ubuntu kernel be released for maverick ?
[19:05] <pollywog> how do I determine why my aduio stopped working in Lucid?
[19:06] <magicianlord> FIReun: i run it on atom-based systems
[19:06] <onaogh> qwertyjustin, what error msg u get when you try to access shares from either pc ?
[19:06] <as_> hi can  u help
[19:06] <edbian> pollywog, dmesg is a good place to start looking for general problems of any kind.
[19:06] <pollywog> running from a console does not show errors
[19:06] <magicianlord> what drops are you referring to? 35 kernel is generally more responsive
[19:06] <as_> me
[19:06] <pollywog> ty
[19:06] <theshadow> My friend is getting this exact bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/430620 which wouldn't be an issue except that each time it happens the whole laptop locks up and has to be rebooted. It happens at least two or three times a week which is just a bit annoying. Does anyone have any workarounds for the time being?
[19:06] <Gerwin> pollywog: You could start by checking dmesg and the logs in /var/log/messages
[19:06] <ChogyDan> k-rad: I think the kernel is set
[19:06] <k-rad> magicianlord, i've never understood the hype over such low powered processors
[19:06] <_doswell_> Zteam, thank you.
[19:06] <deadroot> "-I$(JAVA_HOME)/include" in the Makefile is becoming "-I/include" instead of "-I/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/include"
[19:06] <aeon-ltd> as_: is it about movies? then go to !ot
[19:06] <edbian> theshadow, use an older kernel
[19:06] <FIReun> magicianlord: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=linux_2635_fail&num=1
[19:06] <qwertyjustin> onaogh:  on ubuntu "unable to mount location" - when i click on the windows network folder
[19:06] <k-rad> ChogyDan, there was a patch that was just released 4 days ago that i assume i will only get next kernel release
[19:07] <qwertyjustin> and on xp - i need admin privys from the ubuntu box it tells me
[19:07] <deadroot> onaogh: "-I$(JAVA_HOME)/include" in the Makefile is becoming "-I/include" instead of "-I/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/include"
[19:07] <ChogyDan> k-rad: true, true.  That kernel will show up in the next release
[19:07] <zteam> doswell:launch the update-manager and go to setting and change it to regular distrubutions
[19:07] <FIReun> magicianlord: granted, that was in may, but I havnt found any follow up to prove its a non issue now.
[19:07] <zteam> doswell:and it should offer you to upgrade
[19:07] <onaogh> deadroot, $JAVA_HOME undefined ?
[19:07] <deadroot> it is defined
[19:07] <magicianlord> FIReun: what issue is it exactly?
[19:07] <theshadow> edbian: exactly how old? this bug appears to have been ocuring since 2009... that would be quite a rollback.
[19:08] <deadroot> it used to work fine on previous runs
[19:08] <onaogh> deadroot, #bash
[19:08] <pollywog> I am going to try rebooting with the older kernel and see if that fixes sound
[19:08] <edbian> theshadow, That is old but you asked for a work around.
[19:08] <deadroot> the only real difference that i am aware of is that i'm now building it in "sudo screen"
[19:08] <k-rad> those atom processors that you see everywhere, one wouldn't run gnome on it eh ?
[19:08] <FIReun> magicianlord: whats the question?
[19:08] <edbian> k-rad, I run gnome on one.
[19:08] <deadroot> onaogh: okay. thanks :)
[19:09] <edbian> k-rad, I run Ubuntu netbook edition but I've run normal ubuntu on it with no problems.
[19:09] <k-rad> edbian, their appeal is solely their low price ?
[19:09] <aaron11> onaogh, would installing the older version work?
[19:09] <theshadow> edbian: well I'm not entirely sure rolling back three releases is a useful work around. At that point they might as well go back to windows.
[19:09] <k-rad> i guess netbooks can't be custom built, well can, but rarely done
[19:09] <edbian> k-rad, They are weaker, get less hot, and are cheaper.  They're not so slow that they can't run linux though.  Ubuntu could run on a pII or pI.  Puppy Linux could run on some really old sh*t
[19:09] <FIReun> k-rad: depends on the system
[19:10] <vozmem> I cannot load cpufreq_userspace in ubuntu 10.10, helpppppppppppppp
[19:10] <FIReun> puppy linux stinks like it too
[19:10] <edbian> theshadow, Yeah I understand.  Good luck finding something! (rolling back the kernel does not necessarily mean rolling back the entire release btw)
[19:10] <vozmem> I cannot load cpufreq_userspace module in ubuntu 10.10, helpppppppppppppp
[19:10] <magicianlord> what is your issue with the new kernel? I
[19:10] <FIReun> magicianlord: just what is stated in the phoronix article
[19:10] <vozmem> I cannot load cpufreq_userspace module in ubuntu 10.10
[19:10] <magicianlord> IIm' running it on three systems Ubuntu and other distro, and it's good
[19:11] <magicianlord> i didnt read that
[19:11] <onaogh> deadroot, can u send me the script ?
[19:11] <vozmem> I want to use that module with cpupowerd
[19:11] <crimsun> vozmem: that's because it doesn't exist for 10.10
[19:11] <k-rad> i'm using docky, and the only reason i choose docky was because i read somehow it was tied to gnome-do.  i've not begun to learn gnome-do, and am not happy it disappears until i call for it, though i'll learn that shortcut soon enough.  is there a definitely ubuntu dock that clearly beats them all ?
[19:11] <vozmem> I try to install but it forms non-exist
[19:12] <onaogh> aaron11, for BT4 related issues, join #remote-exploit
[19:13] <magicianlord> FIReun: i dont see any real issues
[19:13] <vozmem> crimsun: I try to install but "E: Unable to locate package cpufreq_userspace"
[19:13] <deadroot> onaogh: the makefile?
[19:13] <FIReun> magicianlord: YMMV -- what atom system do you run?
[19:14] <vozmem> Anyone used to cpupowerd?
[19:14] <magicianlord> atom 1.6
[19:14] <crimsun> vozmem: there is no such package.
[19:14] <FIReun> magicianlord: I was pulling the 10.10 iso down in prep for the system I get tomorrow, when I came across that mention of the 2.6.35 kernel showing degredation on atom based systems
[19:14] <cookiemad> How do I install and setup Compiz with a transparent desktop cube and rotating cogs in the middle?
[19:14] <k-rad> what gnome dock would Mr. Shuttleworth use ?  :)
[19:14] <FIReun> magicianlord: so I canceled the dl, and started the 10.04 iso, figuring I could "upgrade" if it turned out to be nothing
[19:14] <vozmem> crimsun: but in the forums, they said there
[19:14] <onaogh> deadroot, i dont know bash scripting, but if variable declared in user space (the path to $JAVA_HOME), can another user access it ?
[19:15] <onaogh> deadroot, try to export $JAVA_HOME path in /etc/profile or /etc/bash.bash
[19:15] <magicianlord> FIReun: i dont know what issues htere are, but i run ARch and Ubuntu 10.10 on atom systems and they are fine.
[19:15] <venky10> I see only 3gp2 encoder with ffmpeg -formats. Since I need to convert 3gp2 to mp3, I'll need a decoder, right?
[19:15] <deadroot> the variable is in /etc/environment, that's not at the top?
[19:15] <bugaloo> hi people... how can I make my firefox on ubuntu 10.04 open pdf files on browser? Everytime I try to open a website that contains a embedded pdf, it shows a dialog asking for download or open with an external pdf viewer. Is there a way to open it on firefox itself?
[19:15] <onaogh> yep it is
[19:16] <k-rad> can you truely replace a monitor, keyboard, and mouse using sofware on both a ubuntu box and a windows xp box (for itunes).  without a kvm ?
[19:16] <onaogh> deadroot, then check if it exists there, becoz for me, it doesnt
[19:16] <uLinux> how do I kill pulseaudio permanently?
[19:17] <deadroot> it does. i personally added it and tested it
[19:17] <FIReun> magicianlord: would you notice a 20% increase in bzip compression times?
[19:17] <crimsun> uLinux: as in remove it or as in prevent it from respawning?
[19:17] <uLinux> crimsun: just want to disble temporarily
[19:17] <k-rad> bugaloo, the acrobat reader and plugins should fix that though i didn't have success getting those to work.  myself, i could careless if my pdf reader isn't open source as long as it did the job and didn't cost me anything.
[19:17] <simion314> hi, i have a static IP, i setup the /etc/network/interfaces but i have problems seting the DNS. i created the /etc/resolv.conf  and set it up, but i am missing something? i should remove the networkmanager first?
[19:17] <deadroot> i'm going to try another couple of runs. one outside of "sudo screen" and another in "sudo screen"
[19:17] <FFForever> How do I install the sun java6 + browser plugins?
[19:18] <magicianlord> FIReun: no, i hardly compress on hte netbook. wouldnt really matter to me
[19:18] <crimsun> uLinux: echo autospawn=no >> ~/.pulse/client.conf && killall pulseaudio
[19:18] <magicianlord> and i use 7zip
[19:18] <onaogh> FFForever, Applications -> Ubuntu Software Center -> Third Party software
[19:18] <onaogh> FFForever, u can find java jre there
[19:18] <FIReun> magicianlord: and so maybe 2.6.35 actually isnt an issue for you.
[19:18] <deadroot> it's going to take at least six hours though. so thanks for the help onaogh ^_^
[19:18] <onaogh> FFForever, for firefox addons, addons.firefox.net or come
[19:18] <onaogh> com*
[19:19] <bugaloo> k-rad, it costs to me... I have to access a website with several pages in pdf, but the button on the website only "change the page" showing only one page at the time... so I have to download a pdf everytime I change the page... it's a website bad stuff, I know... but I have to use it
[19:19] <FIReun> magicianlord: I'm setting up a new system, so I'm overthinking every choice (:
[19:19] <Pilif12p> addons.mozilla.org
[19:19] <onaogh> deadroot, glade to be of help, although i dont know anything about scripting
[19:19] <k-rad> bugaloo, add a dns-nameservers to your /etc/network/interfaces, note however, i do not have the knowledge how to define more than one nameserver
[19:19] <FFForever> onaogh, I want the firefox java plugin (not on addons.firefox.com)
[19:19] <uLinux> crimsun: tks
[19:19] <onaogh> FFForever, Applications -> Ubuntu Software Center -> Third Party software
[19:19] <magicianlord> yeah
[19:19] <magicianlord> if you are going for ubuntu, go with 10.10
[19:19] <magicianlord> the newer software is worth it
[19:19] <k-rad> bugaloo, you can also set that to 127.0.0.1 and use dnsmasq for cached dns lookups
[19:20] <magicianlord> although ubuntu is a secondary 'trial' distro for me
[19:20] <bugaloo> k-rad, ??
[19:20] <FIReun> magicianlord: what newer software specificially?
[19:20] <k-rad> bugaloo, i thought i was right
[19:20] <FFForever> onaogh, I don't see Third Party software
[19:20] <FIReun> magicianlord: I'm running 10.04 already
[19:20] <magicianlord> FIReun: updated vlc etc
[19:20] <FIReun> magicianlord: i tried 10.04 beta, but it was too buggy at the time
[19:20] <FIReun> er, 10.10 beta
[19:20] <k-rad> FIReun, it runs like a charm now
[19:20] <soreau> cookiemad: Ask in #compiz
[19:21] <FIReun> k-rad: are you using dual monitors from DVI?
[19:21] <deadroot> FFForever: "sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk" "sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun"
[19:21] <onaogh> FFForever, from the left pan, click "Get Software", then click "Cononical Partners"
[19:21] <deadroot> FFForever: although you probably want to replace the jdk with a simple runtime
[19:21] <k-rad> FIReun, i am not.  i have dvi to hdmi cable i never use though
[19:21] <deadroot> i think that would help
[19:21] <FFForever> deadroot, E: Package 'sun-java6-jdk' has no installation candidate
[19:22] <deadroot> FFForever: you're on 10.10?
[19:22] <FFForever> deadroot, yeah.
[19:22] <FIReun> k-rad: I had issues with setting up dual monitors, 10.04 "just worked"
[19:22] <k-rad> FFForever, the maverick user guide is really helpful for things like that
[19:22] <k-rad> FIReun, ATI or Nvidia ?
[19:22] <deadroot> ah. that would require editing the sources.list to enable the restricted stuff
[19:22] <FIReun> k-rad: ATI
[19:22] <FIReun> I wish apt had a "downgrade" option
[19:22] <deadroot> FFForever: i am not sure if you should follow my advice then
[19:23] <FFForever> onaogh, I have provided by ubuntu, canonical partners, for purchase, google
[19:23] <k-rad> FIReun, then look under system-preferences-monitors, it'll let you use both
[19:23] <FIReun> k-rad: but the new box is nvidia
[19:23] <deadroot> it seems that sun's java is being replaced by openjdk or something. i am not clear on the current java situation
[19:23] <onaogh> cononical partners FFForever
[19:23] <k-rad> sun-java6- etc worked for me i think
[19:23] <jeltsch> How can I set an environment variable for a GNOME session?
[19:24] <k-rad> i'm simply an enduser not a developer
[19:24] <n0x> Hi all!  Does anyone know a good website that explain how to configure xorg.conf?  I use 10.10 on laptop with intel i5-520m with dual monitor (Laptop + HDMI as a second monitor) please!  I wanna make sure Intel driver options are enabled...
[19:24] <jeltsch> .profile doesnŌĆÖt seem to work, although I thought it should.
[19:24] <FFForever> onaogh, Fluendo codecs to decode mp3 is the only thing in it
[19:24] <onaogh> FFForever, update your synaptics
[19:24] <lucas_> I have a ASUS 1005 PE Netbook and yesterday I installed the 10.10 Netbook version. My problem is when I try to change the brightness of the screen, the levels are not progressive, the most bright position is close to the middle of the knob. is it a already known issue?
[19:24] <k-rad> n0x what release of ubuntu are you using ?
[19:24] <onaogh> FFForever, sudo apt-get update
[19:24] <FFForever> onaogh, already did plenty of times
[19:24] <FIReun> deadroot: sun/oracle is all going sideways.. major changes for openoffice for one, google is getting irked at oracles changes in relation to java... its all hitting the fan so to speak
[19:24] <n0x> 10.10
[19:24] <n0x> k-rad   10.10
[19:24] <FFForever> onaogh, do I need to enable the partner repository?
[19:25] <dp_> jelt: .profile is executed at logon
[19:25] <onaogh> jeltsch, export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/dir
[19:25] <k-rad> n0x, boot into safe mode, and have it reconfigure your xserver hold CTRL to get the grub menu if it doesn't automagically display itself
[19:25] <jeltsch> onaogh: In which file?
[19:25] <onaogh> FFForever, universe and multiverse has to be enabled
[19:25] <deadroot> FIReun: thanks. fun situation to be in...
[19:25] <k-rad> n0x if it asks any questions, choose, create generic profile
[19:25] <jeltsch> .profile is *not* executed. IŌĆÖ testet it.
[19:25] <k-rad> n0x, then get out of there, and resume boot
[19:26] <jeltsch> I use 10.4.
[19:26] <FFForever> onaogh, they are enabled =\
[19:26] <n0x> its gonna create a xorg.conf.new file?
[19:26] <onaogh> jeltsch, if u want to be system wide, use /etc/bash.bash or /etc/environment
[19:26] <FIReun> deadroot: may you live in interesting times
[19:26] <alex__> heloll
[19:26] <jeltsch> onaogh: I want to be ŌĆ£user wideŌĆØ.
[19:26] <alex__> priv
[19:26] <rww> FFForever: Yes, you need to enable the partner repository for Sun Java.
[19:26] <n0x> thx k-rad
[19:26] <onaogh> jeltsch, use ~/.bashrc
[19:26] <deadroot> not so for me. never liked java and stayed out of it. ^_^
[19:26] <dp_> http://www.tux.org/~mayer/linux/book/node217.html
[19:26] <jeltsch> onaogh: I have tried this, it doesnŌĆÖt work.
[19:26] <FIReun> deadroot: its in everything
[19:26] <k-rad> n0x, it will create a working ubuntu speced file i dont know proper computer jargon for your video card and maverick
[19:26] <FIReun> deadroot: like it or not (:
[19:26] <k-rad> its simply /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[19:27] <FFForever> rww, thanks, I found java in it.
[19:27] <jeltsch> onaogh: Okay, it works in shells I start in a terminal.
[19:27] <n0x> ty
[19:27] <jeltsch> But not in desktop apps.
[19:27] <k-rad> hope that works
[19:27] <lucas_> I have a ASUS 1005 PE Netbook and yesterday I installed the 10.10 Netbook version. My problem is when I try to change the brightness of the screen, the levels are not progressive, the most bright position is close to the middle of the knob. is it a already known issue?
[19:27] <onaogh> jeltsch, it works, or it doesn't work ?!!
[19:27] <taylorsmith246> Im having trouble install ubuntu on my mac. I try to boot from the CD, but it wont recognize it.
[19:27] <magicianlord> lucas_: that's a bios issue
[19:27] <onaogh> taylorsmith246, which mac u are having ?
[19:27] <n0x> everything works on default. but i wanna be able to configure with a xorg.conf.. to make sure :)
[19:28] <taylorsmith246> i have a PowerBook G4.
[19:28] <k-rad> taylorsmith246, those sometimes have special keyboard control keys that you need to rev up the atapi device
[19:28] <deadroot> FIReun: currently, i have only one application that uses java, and even then it is optional. i'd have axed it if i knew how to build the app without java components. :)
[19:28] <k-rad> taylorsmith246, there should be a powerppc ubuntu channel
[19:28] <onaogh> taylorsmith246, u got to download the version of ubuntu that is made for those processors
[19:28] <jeltsch> onaogh: If I put ŌĆ£export BLA=blubŌĆØ into .bashrc, then every shell I start in a terminal window has BLA set, of course. But an application I start from the application window doesnŌĆÖt.
[19:28] <lucas_> is there a solution?
[19:28] <taylorsmith246> what version would that be?
[19:28] <sudoers200> how ubuntu works on ppc?
[19:28] <lucas_> magicianlord, is there a solution?
[19:29] <k-rad> anyone know how i can make my gnome terminal pretty with colors *&* proper character formatting ?
[19:29] <onaogh> jeltsch, to export to path, use export BLAH=PATH$:/path/to/blah
[19:29] <magicianlord> did you run this in windows and did it have the same issue? my experience is the progression is os independant
[19:29] <magicianlord> you can also set brightness via power management and dont touch it
[19:29] <taylorsmith246> Can i install Ubuntu 10.10 on my PowerPC mac?
[19:29] <onaogh> jeltsch, u have also to relogin
[19:29] <k-rad> taylorsmith246, absolutely a powerppc flavor
[19:30] <jeltsch> onaogh: Of course.
[19:30] <taylorsmith246> how do I get that?
[19:30] <onaogh> jeltsch, ofcourse ?what ?
[19:30] <jeltsch> onaogh: Of course, I have to relogin.
[19:30] <jeltsch> I did so.
[19:30] <savid> hi,  i'm having issues with my laptop battery.  The ubuntu indicator is showing that the battery is fully charged,  however, my docky applet is showing 61.2% charged and it's been like that for several hours (ie, not charging).  What could be the cause of that?
[19:30] <k-rad> if anyone is in Houston i have a imac M5521 that i'm willing to let go of, works fine.  for free (sorry for offtopic)
[19:31] <elias_> hey, how do i get the dvd codecs?
[19:31] <jeltsch> onaogh: But it doesnŌĆÖt work since GDM executes neither .profile nor .bashrc when I log in.
[19:31] <k-rad> elias_, medibuntu
[19:31] <k-rad> elias_, or buy them at canonical store
[19:31] <thevishy> does anyone have experience with PXE boot ?
[19:31] <sudoers200> no need to buy
[19:31] <sudoers200> there are many tutorials
[19:31] <onaogh> where does gdm takes the env vars from ? jeltsch
[19:31] <sudoers200> google will find some
[19:31] <k-rad> as long as your not running a business that is
[19:31] <elias_> k-rad, at the ubuntu softwhere center?
[19:32] <lucas_> magicianlord: ok, i find power management at the bios or is something here
[19:32] <sudoers200> or if ya lazy install Linux Mint
[19:32] <nickrw> savid: could it be showing percentage of original capacity?
[19:32] <ehcah> Can someone help me with this Virtual Box error: Could not create a directory '/media/Virtual OS/Win95' to save the settings file (VERR_ACCESS_DENIED).
[19:32] <elias_> k radioman-lt where
[19:32] <k-rad> elias_, google medibuntu repository the ones you are looking for is libdvdcss2 and you might as well fetch w32codecs
[19:32] <Dr_Willis>  /quit
[19:32] <elias_> thanks
[19:32] <onaogh> 2:30 AM here, zzzZZZZZzzzZZZzz
[19:33] <Dulak> jeltsch: actually .bashrc is executed but by default it exits if the login is non-interactive, if you look at the bashrc the first thing it does is check if the terminal is interactive and bails when it isn't.  Anything you want to happen non-interactive you add above that first operation.
[19:33] <asraniel> hi, is there any known bug with nouveau where x.org suddenly uses 100% cpu?
[19:33] <jeltsch> Dulak: Thanks a lot. IŌĆÖll try.
[19:33] <k-rad> i'm using docky, and the only reason i choose docky was because i read somehow it was tied to gnome-do.  i've not begun to learn gnome-do, and am not happy it disappears until i call for it, though i'll learn that shortcut soon enough.  is there a definitely ubuntu dock that clearly beats them all ?
[19:34] <lucas_> magicioanlord: thanks! it's better now!
[19:34] <Ryen> !best | k-rad
[19:34] <k-rad> what gnome dock would Mr. Shuttleworth use ?  :)
[19:35] <ChogyDan> k-rad: ya, you gota learn the shortcut.  Isn't is ctrl+space or something?
[19:35] <k-rad> everyone install ksplice it'll install security updates in the background without any interaction
[19:35] <k-rad> oui.  i believe it is
[19:35] <ChogyDan> k-rad: the whole point of gnome-do is the shortcut
[19:36] <k-rad> ooh.  thank you
[19:36] <k-rad> :)
[19:37] <AbhiJit> how to check which mysql version i have?
[19:37] <k-rad> here's another tip, if you have redundant ethernet cards, and an extra port on your router, channel bonding really speeds things up
[19:37] <AbhiJit> i installed lamp
[19:38] <ChogyDan> AbhiJit: maybe apt-cache policy mysql-server
[19:38] <Dulak> AbhiJit: run this at a terminal: 'dpkg -l | grep mysql'  and look for the mysql-server package it should have the version as part of the name
[19:38] <k-rad> i'm totally uneducated as to the purpose of mysql other than its function for storing database information for other programs
[19:39] <AbhiJit> ChogyDan, Dulak thanks
[19:39] <gnuskool> Whats better, a format -->full install : or upgrade to 10.10 ??
[19:39] <k-rad> gnuskool, a fresh install will ensure you have the
[19:39] <k-rad> PAE kernel by default
[19:40] <Dulak> gnuskool: depends on if you have /home on a seperate partition really
[19:40] <gnuskool> k-rad: i already boot with pae kernel, any othe deal breakers?
[19:40] <k-rad> gnuskool, when i upgraded, it wreaked havok with permission on all sorts of system hidden config files in my home directory, i however, i adopted early, and simply fetched the final update
[19:41] <satish> hi
[19:41] <k-rad> gnuskool, if your coming from a maverick beta, root permissions and other files might be messed up, if not, ask the official ubuntu resource for that question of which i don't know
[19:42] <Xaifas> I got a problem with my internet connection on ubuntu. For some reason, anything that I do and requires to send/recieve data is very very slow. If i try to access a site has 10secish delay then goes full speed. If i try to ssh, halts for 10secs or so then finaly starts. Anyone who can explain what is causing this?
[19:42] <eboyjr> What are my options for installing Ubuntu on my netbook? I don't have a flash drive available.
[19:42] <k-rad> Xaifas, might be a dns problem check /etc/resolv.conf
[19:42] <aeon-ltd> Xaifas:  disable ipv6?, firewall?
[19:42] <MarderIII> Xiafas: check your dns
[19:42] <Xaifas> ipv6 disabled
[19:42] <k-rad> aeon-ltd, that would not be necessary
[19:42] <Xaifas> firewall off
[19:42] <gnuskool> k-rad: i got lucid, anything important is saved elsewhere so I might go from scratch, i just didnt want to bother if it wasnt necessary
[19:42] <k-rad> keep gufw on
[19:43] <k-rad> gnuskool, then i'm the wrong person to ask
[19:43] <erUSUL> !ipv6 | Xaifas
[19:43] <satish> @CyberSix where r u from?
[19:43] <Xaifas> what exactly do i need to tweek in that file k-rad ?
[19:43] <Xaifas> i have ipv6 turned off erUSUL
[19:43] <k-rad> can you pastebin.ca it ?
[19:43] <Xaifas> sure sec
[19:43] <gnuskool> k-rad: thx anyway
[19:43] <tinuxin> Hi, I have a wireless keyboard with integrated mouse. The mouse is working but not the keyboard, any ideas?
[19:43] <k-rad> tinuxin, are they bluetooth ?
[19:43] <tinuxin> no radio
[19:44] <k-rad> tinuxin, i've never used one of those under ubuntu
[19:44] <Smilodonis> tinuxin: Logitech?
[19:44] <magicianlord> tinuxin: try different port or function buttons
[19:44] <erUSUL> Xaifas: then i dunno; maybe with wireshark or tcpdump you can figure out what is going on ?
[19:44] <k-rad> FSF is trying to setup standards for hardware manufacturers to respect open source magic

[19:46] <Xaifas> even using irc is slow
[19:46] <demlasjr> guys, there is any way to easy change the internet configuration in ubuntu server ? If I remeber well, before was a graphic interface
[19:46] <Xaifas> takes 10 secs before connecting
[19:46] <k-rad> doublehelixs, i will say, if its not for quick fix, you'd likely regret it someday
[19:46] <demlasjr> something to easy configure it

[19:50] <tinuxin> dagon666: it's not working :). It has an integrated mouse which is working but not the keyboard itself!
[19:50] <Xaifas> connection works fine in windows though, dont know whats wrong in ubuntu
[19:50] <shafiq_> Can anyone help me with DVD playback?  I've followed all the help, installed all the appropriate codecs and packages, and still, in vlc, my video, when started, becomes so choppy, it just sticks on one spot.  Any ideas anyone?
[19:51] <k-rad> Xaifas, oh.  do you have working internet at the moment ?
[19:51] <demlasjr> erUSUL: so any idea ?
[19:51] <Xaifas> well im on irc, aint i? means i got internet working
[19:51] <Oxwivi> Samba printer sharing with Windows XP, Vista and 7 simultaneously anyone?
[19:51] <_Valantis_> hi guys
[19:51] <erUSUL> demlasjr: no; sorry. nevfer heard of such a thing. unless maybe wicd-ncurses?
[19:51] <haffe> Oxwivi: Yes?
[19:51] <Xaifas> only problem is anything i start, starts slow
[19:51] <k-rad> Xaifas, good.  and your preference for wifi manager is network-manager-gnome ?
[19:51] <erUSUL> !samba | Oxwivi
[19:51] <_Valantis_> is there a program for ubuntu for wifi ?
[19:52] <Oxwivi> I got everything connected and configured and shared.
[19:52] <_Valantis_> like visualise
[19:52] <_Valantis_> with a graph
[19:52] <Xaifas> no idea about that to be honest
[19:52] <uLinux> I disabled pulseaudio and I realized that Sound applets dont work anymore or is there a fix'
[19:52] <uLinux> ?
[19:52] <_Valantis_> and all the info for the APs found ?
[19:52] <demlasjr> erUSUL: no....:( maybe was other OS....anyway, do you have manual config in your PC ?
[19:52] <Oxwivi> But after restarting Ubuntu, I can't seem to connect to the printer again.
[19:52] <k-rad> Xaifas, who setup that /etc/resolv.conf in the first place
[19:52] <Oxwivi> !samba
[19:52] <k-rad> ?

[19:53] <erUSUL> demlasjr: what do you want to configure?
[19:53] <demlasjr> erUSUL: can I go in pm with you ?
[19:53] <taylorsmith246> Will making a bootable usb drive for ubuntu erase my usb drive?
[19:53] <erUSUL> dimbos: ubuntu does not have firewall by default so if something is listening in a port thaqt port is open
[19:53] <Kofte> hi
[19:53] <axhyn> _Valantis_ : doesn't the system monitor show network activity
[19:54] <taylorsmith246> Will making a bootable usb drive for ubuntu erase my usb drive?
[19:54] <Oxwivi> Samba printer help anyone? TT_TT Try private messaging me, this place is too busy.
[19:54] <k-rad> Xaifas, make a backup of that file change nameservers to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 two lines, then go to a terminal and do sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart.  then use your wifi manager to reconnect and see if that fixes your problem in your wifi manager
[19:54] <__cool__> d
[19:54] <Kofte> Question: Is there any file other than /etc/apt/sources.list where repositories would be listed?
[19:55] <Kofte> I'm looking in that file for something that should be there, but can't find it
[19:55] <taylorsmith246> I'm trying to make a bootable USB drive for ubuntu. Will it erase my usb drive?
[19:55] <Xaifas> all right, trying that now
[19:55] <Dulak> Kofte: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
[19:55] <Skaperen> taylorsmith246: depends on the method used
[19:55] <k-rad> taylorsmith246, it will and if you want persisitance 4GB is the right size
[19:55] <Kofte> taylorsmith246: I believe it would
[19:56] <Garandir> my mouse is frozen what do I do
[19:56] <Kofte> Dulak: thanks! found what I was looking for.
[19:56] <Skaperen> taylorsmith246: if you are making an install image from the ISO with unetbootin, it should not ... but can fail in many cases
[19:56] <Skaperen> taylorsmith246: other methods pretty much erase the whole USB flash drive
[19:56] <Garandir> What do I do when my mouse is frozen?
[19:57] <pbbbb> d
[19:57] <Skaperen> Garandir: if USB, try unplug and plug back in
[19:57] <magicianlord> Garandir: plug in another mouse
[19:57] <k-rad> i forgot to tell the guy that if it didn't work to restore the backup :/
[19:57] <Goldline> can anyone helpme im importing a .sql file but the .sql file keeps queuering
[19:57] <mrk_> is there a system restore in ubuntu?

[19:58] <mrk_> k-rad : thanks...so no going back?
[19:58] <Skaperen> mrk_: re-install and rel-load your data from one of the three backups
[19:58] <Garandir> I unplugged it and plugged it back in but now it wont turn on..
[19:58] <Skaperen> Garandir: "turn on" ... was the computer off?
[19:58] <k-rad> mrk_, you can certainly fixed problems that may or may not have been your fault
[19:58] <gnuskool> is there are gnome equivalent to jackd?
[19:59] <Garandir> the mouse. It's like theres no power to
[19:59] <mrk_> Skaperen, thanks
[19:59] <Garandir> to it*
[19:59] <revstray> Hello! I recently upgraded from Lynx to Maverick (UNR) and I am unable to modify the applets bar, is this a feature or a bug? :)
[19:59] <gnuskool> :D
[19:59] <Skaperen> Garandir: is it the kind that should light up underneath but does not now?
[19:59] <Ray2>  Ubuntu Lucid..On booting the following errors...No suitable mode found..unknown command terminal..How do I correct this error
[19:59] <secon> hi everyone, can anyone give me the link to download AES-CTR implementation in C programming language..I've googled but nothing is worked..thank you for your time :)
[19:59] <revstray> er, Lucid to Maverick, sorry. :)
[19:59] <coz_> gnuskool,   did you look in synaptic
[19:59] <Garandir> The mouse wheel is normally illuminated but its now not, and won't work
[19:59] <Skaperen> Garandir: your computer is on and a desktop is showing?
[20:00] <Garandir> Yes..
[20:00] <Xaifas> k-rad, changed the file and did what you said. didnt worked. same thing
[20:00] <Skaperen> Garandir: press Ctrl+Alt+F1 and see if it switches to a text screen
[20:00] <gnuskool> coz, no, but i was hoping for something well tested and used by someone already before installing stuff at random
[20:00] <k-rad> Xaifas, thank god your still here, then restore the old one, and learn your router i can only give you examples of my /etc/network/interfaces and my /etc/resolv.conf for you to learn
[20:00] <Garandir> then what?
[20:00] <magicianlord> How do you make
[20:00] <magicianlord> Ubuntu start into terminal login
[20:00] <coz_> gnuskool,   well I have jack installed here   and it works fine
[20:01] <mrk_> k-rad:  i wanted to go back to before i upgraded to 10.4
[20:01] <k-rad> Xaifas, make note of what your router calls specific things by ip address
[20:01] <magicianlord> prvent X from starting auto
[20:01] <Skaperen> Garandir: if it does or does not determines next step
[20:01] <k-rad> mrk go back to what ?
[20:01] <mrk_> k-rad, the operating system i had, 9.4
[20:01] <k-rad> mrk_, may i ask what distro that was ?
[20:01] <gnuskool> coz_, i heard qt  apps on gnome slow the system down, is it really gonna affect latency and response??
[20:02] <mrk_> k-rad: i don't understand distro
[20:02] <k-rad> mrk_, what precisely is the problem now ?  i forget
[20:02] <coz_> gnuskool,   so if you open synaptic  and hit Search and type in   jackd     I dont see any slow down at all
[20:02] <k-rad> mrk spend some time reading www.ubuntu.com
[20:02] <mrk_> its gecko that fails to initialise on GNOME
[20:02] <mrk_> k-rad, i've spent a lot of time
[20:03] <k-rad> mrk_, are you an english speaker ?
[20:03] <coz_> gnuskool,   I dont see any qu dependecies  with this  but let me check
[20:03] <mrk_> k-rad: yes, why?
[20:03] <k-rad> mrk, please don't be offended by that.  all i can tell you is be patient, learn all you can, what is the operating system from which you hail from at the moment ?
[20:04] <mrk_> k-rad: upgraded 10.4 from previously installed Ubuntu 9.4
[20:04] <coz_> gnuskool,   no I dont see any qt dependecies  here for jack
[20:04] <coz_> in synaptic
[20:04] <Skaperen> Garandir: so did you try it, yet?
[20:04] <k-rad> mrk why didn't you choose 10.10 ?
[20:04] <BobSapp> does ubuntu have any way to mount pictures from your flickr account?
[20:05] <mrk_> k-rad: because 10.4 is LTS
[20:05] <k-rad> mrk oh but 10.10 is LTS
[20:05] <k-rad> mrk i believe you are mistaken
[20:05] <Skaperen> two LTSs in same year?
[20:05] <ddilinger> I'm trying to setup pulseaudio so i can play audio from my PC, and be able to switch it over to the media center PC.  I've checked 'Enable network access to local sound' along with 'Allow other machines in LAN' and 'Don't require authentication'  and restarted pulseaudio on my mediacenter, but the other PC doesn't show up in padevchooser as an option for output.  If i manually set the 'default server' to the name of my media center, still nothi
[20:05] <Skaperen> 10.04 is the LTS
[20:05] <ZykoticK9> k-rad, 10.10 != LTS
[20:05] <mrk_> k-rad: it wasn't then as far as i know...also i'm new to linux
[20:05] <k-rad> maverick is not LTS ?
[20:05] <Oer> k-rad 10.04 is LTS
[20:05] <k-rad> wow
[20:06] <k-rad> i stand corrected
[20:06] <Ray2>  Ubuntu Lucid..On booting the following errors...No suitable mode found..unknown command terminal..How do I correct this error
[20:06] <Skaperen> there is 10.04.1 ... apparently an update of 10.04 ... presumably part of the LTS support process
[20:06] <magicianlord> Skaperen: ye
[20:06] <k-rad> mrk_, what is the partitioning scheme of your hard drive ?
[20:06] <ddilinger> anyone successfully setup networked audio with pulseaudio?
[20:06] <mrk_> k-rad: its all ubuntu
[20:07]  * Skaperen made USB memory stick flash drive images from the 10.04.1 ISOs the other day

[20:07] <k-rad> mrk do you have an external backup drive or dvd writer ?
[20:07] <avo> Hey all, a while ago I edited some config file to have my lucid desktop boot into a login shell, and then I'd type startx to log directly in (bypassing gdm). I did this because I didn't want to see ugly plymouth and for some other uninportant reasons which can be overlooked now. However, I think i've found a solution to fix the ugly plymouth, and would like to re-enable gdm and not have to login from the command line and hit startx. I don't
[20:07] <avo>  remember which file I edited to cause that to happen.. but I remember it being something about grub and text mode. Any help? THANKS!
[20:07] <ZykoticK9> chiapagringo, yes IPs are fine (it's what I use actually)
[20:08] <tinuxin> Is there any way i can see what my keyboard outputs (or rather how ubuntu interprets it)?
[20:08] <chiapagringo> perfect.  Many thanks.
[20:08] <magicianlord> How do you change the installation directory or drive for applicatinos?
[20:08] <TunnelSnakes> Hey guys, just wondering if there is any TRIM utility that I could use for my OCZ SSD for Ubuntu?
[20:08] <k-rad> mrk_, do you have an external backup drive or dvd writer ?
[20:08] <mrk_> k-rad: no external hard drive,  i have a dvd writer...by the way, the problem existed a year ago and is listed on http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=247040#add_comment
[20:08] <twbd> avo, if you started the editor from the command line you can look in ~/.bash_history if it was a graphical editor you can look in the recently-opened-files of that editor (probably as user root)
[20:08] <avo> twbd, This was a few months ago.
[20:09] <k-rad> mrk_, never devote the entire drive to ubuntu.  i'm not sure why that option exists.  how much memory do you have ?
[20:09] <imanc> hey - i have a problem on 10.4 with my keyboard locking up I'm unable to type at all, but some key combos still work. It happens mainly when I'm using pidgin, but then I try to type in another app and I can't
[20:09] <ZykoticK9> avo, do you have a /etc/init/gdm.conf
[20:09] <ddilinger> TunnelSnakes: i could be mistaken, but id dont believe you do anything for trim.  If the kernel decects trim support it will use it
[20:09] <avo> twbd, I'm pretty sure it was the main grub config file, but I don't know where to find it.
[20:09] <imanc> i then use the mouse to kill a few apps, and then it starts working again
[20:09] <imanc> any ideas what this could be?
[20:09] <avo> ZykoticK9, Nope.
[20:09] <mrk_> k-rad: what is your suggestion?
[20:09] <augdawg> my maverick machine will not update. can anyone help? http://fpaste.org/I64J/
[20:09] <twbd> avo, /boot/grub/grub.cfg maybe? or some file that this file is rendered from
[20:09] <k-rad> mrk_, before i go down that trail, you must backup all your data.  i'd ditch existing config files and only keep valuables
[20:09] <TunnelSnakes> hm alright thanks ddilinger
[20:10] <ZykoticK9> avo, that would be why GDM isn't starting then - did you move it to .disabled by chance?
[20:10] <ChogyDan> augdawg: doesn't look like a problem
[20:10] <mrk_> k-rad: i've nothing too valuable to lose
[20:10] <Ray2>  Ubuntu Lucid..On booting the following errors...No suitable mode found..unknown command terminal..How do I correct this error
[20:10] <mrk_> k-rad; I'M STILL EXPERIMENTING WITH UBUNTU
[20:10] <ddilinger> Any succesfully setup networked audio with pulseaudio? I'm trying to setup pulseaudio so i can play audio from my PC, and be able to switch it over to the media center PC.  I've checked 'Enable network access to local sound' along with 'Allow other machines in LAN' and 'Don't require authentication'  and restarted pulseaudio on my mediacenter, On my  PC the mediacenter doesn't show up in padevchooser as an option for output.  If i manually set 
[20:10] <avo> ZykoticK9, I doubt it. I'm almost 99% sure all I did was add a "text" instead of "Graphical" option to _some_ grub config file.. but I don't know exactly which.
[20:10] <giamba> hey
[20:10] <drjo> does ./configure only leave files in the directory im running it from?
[20:11] <ddilinger> drjo: ./configure is a shell script, it can do anything
[20:11] <ZykoticK9> avo, Plymouth and GDM are separate things to disable actually...
[20:11] <augdawg> ChogyDan : it says that it failed to update the repository information. it also tells me t check my internet connection, but it is working fine.
[20:11] <ddilinger> drjo: it could rm -rf / if the person who wrote the script told it to
[20:11] <ChogyDan> augdawg: but none of those repos are vital
[20:11] <avo> ZykoticK9, So I thought too, but I think that one line changing text to graphical must do something more.
[20:11] <drjo> ddilinger: yeah i understand, but the usual behavior?
[20:11] <avo> twbd, Nope. Not that file
[20:12] <ddilinger> drjo: typical behavior various by project, some projects generate makefiles throughout the directory structure
[20:12] <augdawg> i dont know what it is either. it did that yesterday also.
[20:12] <ddilinger> drjo: typically a make distclean will cleanup anything created by a ./configure
[20:12] <ZykoticK9> avo, what is the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= in your /etc/default/grub say?
[20:13] <augdawg> okay thanks ChogyDan
[20:13] <drjo> ddilinger: i deleted the whole folder
[20:13] <k-rad> mrk, say you have 2gb of ram.  then do something like 2500 for swap.  then do a / partition make it ext4 and and choose the 10000 value, the last partition you'd make it will have the rest of the space right there in front of your face, take up the rest of the hard drive space and put /home on it.  you can then choose any release of ubuntu you want, but only keep your valuables and config files in /home/mrk   any reinstalls you can reformat the root part
[20:13] <k-rad> ition which is /.  do not ever format /home   once you do that, you'll have all your config settings and valuables (that you'll only want to backup in the event of hard drive failure) right there in /home use ext4 for / and /home just on reinstall only format / and never /home
[20:13] <avo> ZykoticK9, BINGO! That's the file!
[20:13] <avo> ZykoticK9, It is set to "text"
[20:13] <awnek> Is there an ubuntu cloud channel?
[20:13] <epaphus> Hello. Why is is that ubuntu reports RAM usage as significantly lower in System ->  Administration -> System Monitor... then it does with the free command..???  mayor difference !
[20:13] <avo> ZykoticK9, What's the "normal" setting?
[20:14] <ZykoticK9> avo, GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
[20:14] <mrk_> k-rad: it sounds like you are suggesting a fresh installation
[20:14] <ddilinger> mrk_: and the reason you do that is because in an afternoon you can replace the root partition with a re-install, and all your user data is still intact and un-touched, without even having to think about it
[20:14] <k-rad> mrk_, now save what i just wrote to some time of document saver, and start backing up files
[20:14] <ddilinger> mrk_: or if you maybee bought an SSD to replace the main drive, same thing you can replace the root partition without affecting user data
[20:14] <avo> ZykoticK9, Yup. Just found it on the grub 2 ubuntu page. Thanks so much! I'll let you know how it goes!
[20:15] <k-rad> mrk_, only after you've backed up your data. but yes.  never choose ubuntu to use the entire drive  that might only be for drunken kicks on a drive you'd never wan't to retain for the future
[20:15] <mrk_> k-rad: and ddilinger,  i don't need to save user data
[20:15] <twbd> epaphus, maybe one of the two includes disk cache and the other not
[20:15] <ddilinger> mrk_: everyone wants to preserve user data, even if they think they dont
[20:15] <happyface> I'm trying to help someone remotely but the remote desktop isn't configuring UPnP on the other line. What can I do?
[20:15] <ddilinger> mrk_: otherwise, throw an rm -rf /home/* into /etc/cron.daily
[20:16] <k-rad> mrk_, you'll not only be preserving your user data but also your gnome config settings
[20:16] <mrk_> ddilinger, belive me, i can start afresh
[20:16] <rocklobster_217> upnp is to share media if im not mistaken
[20:16] <k-rad> mrk_, backup your valuables anyway, if you have any
[20:16] <mrk_> k-rad: ok...but gnome is the problem
[20:16] <ddilinger> mrk_: if you want a system thats hard to fix, be my guest
[20:16] <mrk_> k-rad: i think its the xulrunner
[20:17] <twbd> epaphus, look at the 2nd line of free: it says without cache (while the first lines includes cache as "used"), and returns the same amount as the System Monitor (use "free -m" to see in  megabytes)
[20:17] <k-rad> thats a component of firefox, i can't help you there
[20:17] <epaphus> twbd, thank you
[20:17] <Ray2>  Ubuntu Lucid..On booting the following errors...No suitable mode found..unknown command terminal..How do I correct this error
[20:17] <twbd> epaphus, you're welcome
[20:17] <mrk_> ddilinger; i wish i understood you better...i'm very ignorant
[20:18] <k-rad> mrk_, your not ignorant perhaps you are young or a slow learner
[20:18] <k-rad> mrk_, these things take time
[20:18] <mrk_> k-rad: i'm not young haha..but new to linux
[20:18] <ddilinger> mrk_: say you mess up something and wreck something, if /home is a seperate partition you can replace the root partition in an hour or two and have it just like it was before you broke anything
[20:18] <ddilinger> mrk_: if its not a seperate partition, you have to juggle data arround
[20:19] <k-rad> mrk_, fine.  your not young.  your also not ignorant.  :)
[20:19] <ddilinger> mrk_: if your like me and have multi TB of data, juggling data arround to re-install an OS is not a choice :)
[20:19] <mrk_> ddilinger: i see what you mean, is that an option provided during an installation?
[20:19] <ddilinger> mrk_: it used to be standard, things may have changed though
[20:20] <vvcephei> I don't think it's standard anymore
[20:20] <vvcephei> should be
[20:20] <`3Shades> can anyone help me with ISPconfig?
[20:20] <mrk_> ddilinger, and k-rad , i live and learn1
[20:20] <k-rad> mrk_, there are free ubuntu ebooks if you can find them, relatively new, only cost money if you want the paperback
[20:20] <epaphus> twbd, i thought the disk cache was something the actual hard disk had.. didnt take advantage of RAM.. in any case that isnt real ram usage right?
[20:20] <ddilinger> mrk_: i typically skip the automatic partitioner and do it by hand, 2x ram as swap space, 10 or 20G for root, and the rest for /home
[20:20] <rocklobster_217> ddilinger: what other folders would you suggest separating from main installation, I usually have /usr/local on its own
[20:21] <mrk_> k-rad: i'm on to it...learning slowly but hopefully surely! wrote my first shell script today. succesfully! haha
[20:21] <mrk_> ddilinger, ; my pc is dreadfully old
[20:21] <rocklobster_217> k-rad: can you advise on a good ubuntu e-book
[20:21] <k-rad> mrk_, do 2500 for swap, then 10000 for / make that ext 4, format it every reinstall, then the rest of the space on /home, ext4 also, and NEVER format.  thats the sin against the holy ghost
[20:22] <Jordan_U> ddilinger: rocklobster_217: http://castrojo.tumblr.com/post/1093664654/no-need-to-complicate-your-life
[20:22] <`3Shades> Can anyone help me with ISPconfig 2?
[20:22] <ddilinger> rocklobster_217: some people do /usr/local, i dont personally install anything into /usr/local so i dont bother.  If you do plan to have custom installed software there it will solve juggling data issues should you have need to re-install the root partition.  Also if your applications in /usr/local can generate lots of data keeping /usr/local on a seperate partition will stop filling up that from breaking anything else
[20:22] <k-rad> rocklobster_217, i could actually provide them if i had a server i could drop them off at
[20:22] <twbd> epaphus, both exist. The disk has some amount of cache that is indeed called the disk cache, which you get when you buy a harddisk.  The disk cache I was talking about is a different one (maybe the term "disk cache" is not the best choice of me), it's when Linux reads a file from disk, that it keeps it's content in memory (RAM). The next time the file is read it can be read faster (Linux can just fetch the content from RAM).

[20:22] <ntarruella>  hello Everybody, there's anyone here who does PHP?
[20:23] <erUSUL> ntarruella: #php ?
[20:23]  * Skaperen used to do PHP, but that was 10 years ago
[20:23] <ddilinger> Jordan_U: shrug, if your re-install intends to use the exact same filesystems, it can work
[20:23] <Haffe> There was php 10 years ago?
[20:23] <Haffe> Man I am getting old.
[20:23] <rocklobster_217> k-rad: I've just moved my server to my new house, hasn't been turned on
[20:23] <Skaperen> PHP3
[20:23] <ddilinger> Jordan_U: my media center was installed years ago and just continuously upgraded, i've switched filesystems and whatnot on the root as years pass and never needed to munge with the data dirs
[20:23] <k-rad> rocklobster_217, if you find a buddy with ftp server i dont mind dropping them off
[20:24] <mrk_> thanks anyway k-rad and ddilinger ..looks like i'm headed for a re-installation
[20:24] <mren> hi, in which package can I find Gimp.pm in 10.10?
[20:24] <ddilinger> Jordan_U: couldn't imagine changing filesystems on the TB disks, where to even put the data while formatting
[20:24] <ntarruella> Im having a really hard time setting up apache2.2 and php5.3
[20:24] <Skaperen> or maybe I'm confusing it with PCP ? :-)
[20:24] <k-rad> save that partitioning info, it'll save you in the future
[20:24] <mrk_> cool
[20:24] <ntarruella> my php is not working in the virtual hosts
[20:24] <k-rad> mrk_, and backup
[20:25] <Skaperen> Haffe: I made one web site with PHP ... I've updated it since to use CSS, but that didn't really involve changing the PHP
[20:25] <twbd> mren, you can look it up on http://packages.ubuntu.com (seems like there isn't a package with that file if I looked correctly)

[20:25] <mren> thx twbd
[20:25] <twbd> np mren
[20:25] <k-rad> since i'm not allowed to use the word best when asking what ubuntu dock is a good one to use, i'm using docky, since i can't use the word best, those who have tested all of the ubuntu docks could you tell me of a tried and true favorite ?

[20:26] <daniele_athome> i see that glib 2.26 is not on lucid
[20:26] <lee1422_> test test
[20:26] <magicianlord> Is ubuntu faster with 2gb than 512mb ram when you're not reaching over 300?
[20:26] <ddilinger> breeee: asking to ask questions is generally discouraged, ask a full question with details :)
[20:26] <ntarruella> i change my apache2.conf my php5.cnf and everything seems good
[20:26] <lee1422_> this is my first time to use IRC
[20:26] <breeee> Perfect. Thank you ddilinger
[20:26] <mren> to bad, Karmic is the last which provides libgimp-perl
[20:26] <k-rad> magicianlord, its likely digging into swap, to keep it that low, i think ?
[20:27] <erUSUL> magicianlord: more ram is allways good no matter the OS
[20:27] <uLinux> what can cause ALSA glitches
[20:27] <daniele_athome> my god what a mess
[20:27] <magicianlord> k-rad: no swap usage at all
[20:27] <daniele_athome> could you split channels per category?
[20:27] <magicianlord> with windows, for example, it makes a difference, bec memory management is good
[20:27] <k-rad> magicianlord, all i can say is amazing if your doing well on 512mb
[20:27] <lee1422_> i submitted a bug against empathy today
[20:27] <Xaifas> k-rad,  booted to windows and changed the dns server and its the same as in resolv.conf file from ubuntu, so definetly not that. Still can't figure whats causing to be so damn slow
[20:27] <magicianlord> with ubuntu, it doesnt seem to make any difference
[20:27] <breeee> I had allocated 30GB partitioned, set aside, from my Windows partition previously through vista. Now Im in Ubuntu installation setup. /dev/sda5 ext4 i hit install. and tells me i have no root file system defined. But Im unsure of how to do that.
[20:27] <magicianlord> i need a confirmatino of this asap
[20:27] <breeee> :D
[20:27] <ddilinger> magicianlord: considering the price of 2G ram, you will likely make up the cost in time saved shortly :)
[20:28] <cozziemoto> hey guys.. ulimit -l reads 64  as locked memory  ...I have tried various things including editing  /etc/security/limits.conf with no effect increasing that limit...any suggestions?
[20:28] <spayz> can someone plss help?
[20:28] <ddilinger> magicianlord: the extra memory will be used to hold commonly used files from disk in memory, among other things
[20:28] <k-rad> Xaifas was it a utility that setup your network settings in windows ?
[20:28] <Skaperen> spayz: nope
[20:28] <spayz> my notification box is black
[20:28] <uLinux> breeee: you need to choose where to mount /
[20:28] <magicianlord> ddilinger: after they load though
[20:28] <Xaifas> yes k-rad
[20:28] <magicianlord> that seems to make no difference on the netbook
[20:28] <ddilinger> magicianlord: you only read a file once?
[20:28] <ddilinger> magicianlord: how about all the libraries
[20:28] <magicianlord> im not going over 316mb
[20:28] <spayz> can someone plss help?my notification box is black??
[20:28] <ddilinger> magicianlord: if you dont want memory, then dont buy it
[20:29] <ubuntu> I need to backup my hard drive (which has 5 partitions on it) and it's corrupted. how can i mount and back up the entire thing?
[20:29] <breeee> Ooh, ok uLinux. So just under that partition when it says mount choose /
[20:29] <magicianlord> i have a spare 2gb dimm, but see no reason to replace the 512mb one
[20:29] <k-rad> Xaifas, then that question and the answer i gave, ask in #networking and be real patient and kind when asking for help
[20:29] <Xaifas> when I installed both windows and ubuntu, the connection was plugged to the laptop so it configured its self. It runs smoth on windows and slow on ubuntu...
[20:29] <ddilinger> magicianlord: yup, frame that spare 2gb and put it on the wall next to the PC :)
[20:29] <k-rad> the answer you gave
[20:29] <twbd> magicianlord, most users need more RAM just too run gnome+openoffice+firefox+some other programs at the same time, people who need less ram usually know rather good what they're doing and which software to choose (e.g. openbox/icewm/xfce... instead of gnome, etc) or they just swap
[20:29] <Xaifas> Oky then, thanks k-rad
[20:29] <ubuntu> I'm running a live cd of ubuntu
[20:29] <tofix> hi everyone , is there something in ubuntu's kernel (and also debian apparently) that prevent from executing  beginer shellcode (a poor hello world ) that works on Suse 2.6.16 but not on Ubuntu 2.6.31 or 2.6.34  ??
[20:29] <breeee> And now for device for boot loader installation. Would that be on the whole HDD or just that specific partition?
[20:29] <epaphus> twbd, interesting thing is that when I do a file copy it uses all the ram.. and doesnt give it back according to free
[20:30] <k-rad> ddilinger, the 2GB next to the computer thats got 512mb ?
[20:30] <magicianlord> twbd: thanks. i know what im doing, so i dont need more ram by that logic
[20:30] <ddilinger> k-rad: yea :)
[20:30] <k-rad> ya'll are weird ;)
[20:30] <twbd> magical, well yes and no, the extra ram can be used for cache
[20:30] <twbd> magicianlord, well yes and no, the extra ram can be used for cache (sry magical wrong nick)
[20:30] <spayz> can someone plss help?my notification box is black??
[20:30] <Jordan_U> breeee: The whole HD, like "sda". *not* "sda1".
[20:30] <twbd> epaphus, according to the 1st or the 2nd line of the free output?
[20:31] <vvcephei> tofix: what's the error?
[20:31] <RudyValencia> getdeb is down :(
[20:31] <breeee> Jordan_U, thank you. Youre amazing
[20:31] <Jordan_U> breeee: You're welcome.
[20:31] <k-rad> magicianlord, needless to say your using preload.  i've never benchmarked any difference, but hey, i trust it
[20:31] <tofix> vvcephei, always segfaut when i launch the binary
[20:31] <breeee> Type would still be ext4?
[20:31] <RudyValencia> !mint
[20:31] <spayz> can someone plss help?my notification box is black??
[20:32] <breeee> Sidenote. Youre all pretty damn amazing
[20:32] <epaphus> twbd, first
[20:32] <vvcephei> tofix: this is just a hello world? as in "#!/bin/bash" and "echo 'hello world'"?
[20:32] <breeee> uh. now its telling me something about swap space. What is the use of that?
[20:32] <k-rad> thats for when memory needs get to be too high then it'll dig into hard drive allocated swap
[20:32] <ddilinger> breeee: swap space keeps programs running when you run out of real memory :)
[20:33] <ddilinger> breeee: how much memory in your machine?
[20:33] <breeee> Do you advise that? .. oh. Uh. I think RAM 2GB
[20:33] <mobasher> breeee=}} virutal memeory
[20:33] <twbd> epaphus, yep, so the frist line counts the disk cache as used ram. So when copying a file, the content of that file stays in ram and is thus counted as used.  As soon as some software needs more ram and all ram is used by software and disk cache, that ram that is used for disk cache will be given to the software that asks for more ram.
[20:33] <k-rad> oui
[20:33] <ddilinger> breeee: and you have a big(hundreds of GB) hd?  set 4GB for swap
[20:33] <k-rad> i do breeee
[20:33] <uLinux> breeee: you should watch/read a manual installion on Ubuntu :)
[20:33] <Skaperen> breeee: it's for when programs need more memory that you have RAM
[20:33] <uLinux> about
[20:33] <breeee> Hahaha. Alright. Yeah, uLinux. I should. <_<
[20:33] <bill> Hi, need some help with icons for shares that I mount in fstab... They show up in file browser but are useless... anybody know if I can prune them?
[20:33] <tofix> vvcephei, no no ... i write a c code with hello world ... compile it with gcc ... then objdump the binary and extract the op code that i concatenate with \x ... then launch it , works perfect of kernel < 2.6.16 but not on recent ... with gcc 4.x
[20:33] <epaphus> twbd, got it... so i wont pay attention to that :D
[20:33] <mobasher> breeee=}} usually it's 2 times the size of your physical memory
[20:33] <spayz> breeee
[20:34] <breeee> Oh wow. Nice
[20:34] <spayz> can u plss help me?
[20:34] <magicianlord> what if you never reach your 490mb limit?
[20:34] <spayz> breee plss help me
[20:34] <breeee> Spayz, I know nothing about any of this currently. Hence why Im asking simple things.
[20:34] <breeee> Sorry love
[20:34] <Skaperen> breeee: swap space is where idle programs get moved to when other programs need to run and use RAM when there isn't enough for them all at the same time
[20:34] <spayz> can someone plss help?my notification box is black??
[20:34] <spayz> can someone plss help?my notification box is black??
[20:34] <epaphus> speaking of swapping and ram... isnt a smart idea to just simply disable swap on a machine.. i mean after all when swap is used.. it makes the machine very slow... what would happen without swap?
[20:34] <mobasher> spayz=}} whas up
[20:34] <ikonia> epaphus: no, swap is useful to have
[20:34] <ddilinger> epaphus: random programs get killed when you run out of memory
[20:34] <tofix> spayz ... explain
[20:34] <uLinux> breeee: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhnLk3gviWY
[20:35] <vvcephei> tofix: sorry, I misunderstood what you said. Don't think I can help you with that one ;)
[20:35] <ikonia> epaphus: if your machine has no ram and is using swap, it will slow down, but using swap sensibly is good
[20:35] <manu91> bcm 4312 monitor mode??
[20:35] <breeee> Thank you uLinux. :D
[20:35] <ddilinger> epaphus: not the one requesting more memory, but a random program just gets killed(not quite random, but not easily knowable in advance either)
[20:35] <tofix> vvcephei, nop ... thanks
[20:35] <okapi14> hi all
[20:35] <Skaperen> epaphus: depends on how much RAM compare to how much VM is needed ... if sum(VM) < RAM ... sure, no swap needed (and in fact my server is configured that way)
[20:35] <twbd> epaphus, disk cache is a pretty harmless optimization (well except for encrypted devices maybe, and delayed writeback) so it's indeed nothing to worry about :)
[20:35] <mobasher> okapi14=}} hey
[20:35] <breeee> I wont be able to watch that because I cant download the addon currently. But when I come back either completely installed or on Windows, Ill be sure to check it out
[20:35] <DanaG1> When things go into swap, the system tends to slow to a crawl, to where it's faster just to reboot.
[20:36] <bandd> Both 10.04 and 10.10 are mounting a thumb drive (ext2) read-only permissions.  The drive is fine, no errors... any ideas?
[20:36] <epaphus> ikonia, ddilinger .. right but if swap is always 2x RAM.. then.. if I have 2GB of RAM, and SWAP is 4.. then isnt it just smart to have 6GB of ram and not have swap?
[20:36] <okapi14> Have a problem with my mouse not responding to the click unless I use ctrl+shift key. How can I disable it?
[20:36] <ddilinger> DanaG1: depends on how badly its into swap, if you leave firefox and chrome and odesk and other things open, but only use one at a time, the application currently running will be fast
[20:36] <ikonia> epaphus: swap is not always 2 x ram
[20:36] <ddilinger> DanaG1: swapping from the browser to openoffice would likely incur a pause while loading from swap
[20:36] <ikonia> epaphus: ram is not always available, and using ram for "sleeping" processes is a waste, hence swapping out to disk is good
[20:36] <epaphus> ikonia, ubuntu default on the mayoritty of the world computers.. at least
[20:37] <magicianlord> bandd: right click on it while in root nautilus, and change the read/write permission to users group
[20:37] <epaphus> ikonia, ahhh got it
[20:37] <nprasath002> Why skype is not showing in synaptic package manager in 10.10????
[20:37] <ikonia> nprasath002: enable partner repo

[20:37] <xangua> !partner
[20:37] <nprasath002> how?
[20:37] <angevelon> hello all, i have a bit of a puzzle for you involving automounting usb ntfs drive in ubuntu 10.04 lucid
[20:37] <okapi14> Have a problem with my mouse not responding to the click unless I use ctrl+shift key. How can I disable it?
[20:37] <k-rad> i know i'm not running a mac and i don't want to be running a mac but there are many that have the bottom dock much like OSX, i'm not trying to emulate osx, but rather, find the best option from those who have tinkered with all of them.  i'd rather get it right the first time then go through each one by one and test them myself
[20:38] <Jordan_U> epaphus: It also means that if something crazy happens and you're running out of RAM fast, you have more time before the OOM killer kicks in and starts killing processes.
[20:38] <ddilinger> epaphus: the extra memory is more of a buffer zone.  The swap isn't fast but it will keep your computer from going crazy
[20:39] <ddilinger> epaphus: otherwise, say some random website causes a memory leak in firefox, and now firefox is using 2GB of ram on your 2GB machine, with swap you can kill firefox, without swap the kernel will randomly kill programs
[20:39] <bandd> magicianlord: under permissions tab is says "Permissions of drive could not be detertmined"
[20:39] <epaphus> ddilinger, Jordan_U .. so in a db server.. its best to have swap BUT monitor that it should really almost never be used.
[20:39] <angevelon> my problem is this i have 9, yes 9, external usb ntfs drives, before i get flamed, i can afford to do a fileserver any other way right now, im flat broke, anyway.....
[20:39] <RudyValencia> I like to think of swap as emergency holographic RAM :P
[20:39] <Skaperen> does anyone still use 9.04 anymore?
[20:39] <breeee> would swap be a primary partition?
[20:39] <ddilinger> epaphus: for a DB server, you should never even be close to your memory limit
[20:39] <epaphus> right.
[20:39] <ddilinger> epaphus: i run a postgres server with 16GB of memory, it typically uses about 3GB for the system and 13GB for disk cache
[20:39] <gnunoob> how much swap for a machine with 4gb ram does one recommend?
[20:39] <bill> k-rad:  I prefer cairo-dock
[20:39] <mobasher> Skaperen=}} yeap i'm on it
[20:39] <ikonia> breeee: doesn't matter
[20:39] <angevelon> they automount on boot, wich is cool, but with the wrong volume name/sd name
[20:40] <angevelon> this is bad
[20:40] <breeee> ok
[20:40] <k-rad> bill, did you try docky ?
[20:40] <ddilinger> epaphus: if it was ever using even 8GB of memory something would be very wrong
[20:40] <Skaperen> mobasher: can you still update packages?
[20:40] <Jordan_U> epaphus: That's reasonable, especially if you set swappiness to 0 (which means only use swap when absolutely needed, never just as an optimization).
[20:40] <gnunoob> !ping gnunbuntu
[20:40]  * ede_ Ping gnunbuntu Could not be resolved to an IP address
[20:40] <kz6090> k-rad, try avant-window-navigator or cairo dock. both are easy and pretty configurable.
[20:40] <bill> krad:  I've tried docky, awn, and cairo and so far I prefer cairo
[20:40] <breeee> and just file system "linux-swap" ?
[20:40] <k-rad> i've never tried cairo.  sounds like fun
[20:40] <khalidmian> New to ubuntu.. just installed ubuntu on my laptop the graphics do not appear onmy laptop screen so im currently using vga adapter and an external monitor to chat. Please kindly help me as i wish to configure ubuntu to run using my laptop screen

[20:40] <christoz> hey, any idea how to toogle synaptics  touchpad (off/on) on ubuntu 10.10?
[20:41] <Skaperen> mobasher: would anyone have a need to install a fresh 9.04 or even 9.10 at this point in time?
[20:41] <angevelon> so now im trying to set it up to auto mount by uuid in fstab, but i cannot figure out for the life of me ang google, how do i match up the uuid for the drive with the actual volume name if it is miss matching the drive and volume name

[20:42] <breeee> Yay. I made a swap partition. <3 I lov eyou guys
[20:42] <LinuxPhreak> Anyone know how I can do that
[20:42] <angevelon> any takers?
[20:42] <mobasher> Skaperen=}} well i'm on it cuz my video card does not support the new version after 9.04 so i'm on it...i'm too lazy to get a new card :)
[20:42] <Skaperen> mobasher: too lazy or too cheap ? :-)
[20:42] <christoz> magicianlord,  would you mind if i tell you that i don't know what you mean?
[20:43] <okapi14> Have a problem with my mouse not responding to the click unless I use ctrl+shift key. How can I disable it?
[20:43] <nprasath002> synaptic package manager>>edit>> mark packages by task missing???  where is it in 10.10??
[20:43] <Skaperen> mobasher: so newer versions have disposed of the older video drives?
[20:43] <mobasher> Skaperen=}} naa i'm lazy...i have new amd 64 running 10.04 so this is like old system it's okay it's not a top priority for me right now
[20:43] <christoz> what's the function key "fn"? touchpad key?
[20:43] <Skaperen> video drivers
[20:43] <magicianlord> christoz: about waht
[20:43] <epaphus> Jordan_U, ddilinger ... so.. theoretically speaking in an environment where there is ocassional big reads and writes.. one will always show ram being used 90-100% for disk caching.. no matter how big your ram is.. if i copy files that are bigger then the ram.. then all of my ramm will always be used for disk caching... right?
[20:43] <okapi14> anyone ever use the sugar desktop?
[20:44] <ddilinger> christoz: its probably in an off color, look for other markings on your keyboard in the same color
[20:44] <ddilinger> christoz: holding fn will get those keys
[20:44] <angevelon> realtivly new ubuntu user(1.5 years) having trouble with automounting usb ntfs drive with correct matching uuid, sda drive name and volume name, anytakers?
[20:44] <Skaperen> mobasher: ah, ok ... old sidekick machine keeping a legacy version running
[20:44] <mobasher> Skaperen=}} well there is a hardware compatibility list of hardwares on the website
[20:44] <Jordan_U> epaphus: Correct.
[20:44] <christoz> oh din't noticed that
[20:44] <ddilinger> epaphus: yup, thats how it works
[20:44] <Skaperen> mobasher: I'm just trying to decide of I should keep these images I made for 9.04
[20:44] <angevelon> realtivly new ubuntu user(1.5 years) having trouble with automounting usb ntfs drive with correct matching uuid, sda drive name and volume name, anytakers?
[20:44] <mobasher> Skaperen=}} yea this is old school pentium 4 :)
[20:45] <ddilinger> epaphus: if you want to see it in action, do this: dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null bs=1024 count=100000
[20:45] <nprasath002> synaptic package manager>>edit>> mark packages by task missing???  where is it in 10.10??
[20:45] <ddilinger> epaphus: may need a bigger count, and use time on it to see how long it takes
[20:45] <angevelon> realtivly new ubuntu user(1.5 years) having trouble with automounting usb ntfs drive with correct matching uuid, sda drive name and volume name, anytakers?
[20:45] <guntbert> !repeat | angevelon
[20:45] <mobasher> Skaperen=}} sure if your hardware is supported in the newer versions then you can get rid of it...are you running it all from stick or physical drive ?
[20:45] <ddilinger> epaphus: run it a second time, it will run super fast, because dd thinks its reading /dev/sda but the kernel is feeding it straight out of memory cache
[20:45] <Skaperen> mobasher: these images are for raw dd-ing to USB flash drives ... in lieu of using ISOs (but they work as ISOs, too)
[20:46] <baxterubuntu> hey guys i have a dv6000 and when i disable the touchpad on laptop the keyboard stops working. so does menus and right click. it was same on 10.04.1 i read its the synaptics touchpad driver any ideas
[20:46] <Tuxon86> #chanlist
[20:46] <christoz> ddilinger, there is no touchpad key unfortunately
[20:46] <baxterubuntu> for laptop
[20:46] <epaphus> ddilinger, and in your specific case.. you would benefit from 8GB of ram specially if your db is smaller then 8GB of ram... right? so do you maintain proportion between your ram and the size of your db?
[20:46] <SteelPangolin> Skaperen: are you talking about the netbook remix images for 10.04? I've had no luck getting those things to work when dded to USB sticks
[20:46] <baxterubuntu> do ddisable. mouse
[20:47] <ddilinger> epaphus: the ammount of ram on a db server should hopefully enough to be able to keep all hot data in memory
[20:47] <mobasher> Skaperen=}} so u have been running it on flash drive...well if want try the new 10.04 it's pretty good...alot of new features
[20:47] <breeee> :D 10.04
[20:47] <baxterubuntu> and use a usb mouse. if i bump the enable key for for touchpad then disable it keybord stops working
[20:47] <ddilinger> epaphus: hot data, being everything that is read on a regular basis.  You dont need enough memory to store the mostly-unused parts of the db
[20:47] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: no ... I'm talking about dd-able images I have made from the original .iso ... for desktop, and more recently also for netbook, editions
[20:47] <guntbert> !enter | baxterubuntu
[20:47] <epaphus> ddilinger, cool.t nx.
[20:48] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: the way I make these images, they work both as dd-able to flash drive AND cdrecord-able to CDr/DVDr
[20:48] <casrmt> I know the kernel works with 4GB of ram in the x86 release of mav but should I run the 64bit release if I plan on upgrading to 8GB shortly?
[20:48] <SteelPangolin> Skaperen: nice. wish i had one of those a week ago - had to install from a borrowed CD because I couldn't quite get the installer to recognize where its data was.
[20:48] <angevelon> i need help with drive mounting and fstab in 10.04
[20:49] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: http://slashusr.net/ubuntu/10.10/ for the latest ones
[20:49] <SteelPangolin> tried to copy the install ISO stuff and replace isolinux with extlinux but it got messy
[20:49] <angevelon> is there someone there that could please help me?
[20:49] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: I keep a few USB memory sticks with various of these images ready to go
[20:49] <SteelPangolin> Skaperen: thanks :)
[20:50] <dagon666> angevelon: whats the problem ?
[20:50] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: 10.04.1 and 10.04 and 9.10 are out there, too
[20:50] <ddilinger> Any succesfully setup networked audio with pulseaudio? I'm trying to setup pulseaudio so i can play audio from my PC, and be able to switch it over to the media center PC.  I've checked 'Enable network access to local sound' along with 'Allow other machines in LAN' and 'Don't require authentication'  and restarted pulseaudio on my mediacenter, On my  PC the mediacenter doesn't show up in padevchooser as an option for output.  If i manually set 
[20:50] <mobasher> Skaperen=}} well best thing to do is have virtualbox installed and you can play with in that instead of horsing around with the acutal OS on your PC...it's pretty cool check it out
[20:50] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: when dd-ing, be sure to dd to the whole drive (of course, it erases everything)
[20:51] <SteelPangolin> Skaperen: the first 9.x series image i used came as a dd-able file and worked fine. I was pretty disappointed when the 10.x images didn't work.
[20:51] <RingZer0> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzdykNa2IBU&feature=player_embedded >> Does someone want to explain what that is about
[20:51] <angevelon> dagon666, my problem is this, ive got a file sever running 10.04 desktop, with a samba server, and 9 usb ntfs drives
[20:51] <Skaperen> mobasher: that has uses ... but this is for installing to machines with no CD drives
[20:51] <angevelon> dagon666, when i boot, everytime, the system mis matches the uuid, sda name, and volume name
[20:52]  * Skaperen even has some tower/rack machines with no CD drive now days
[20:52] <dagon666> angevelon: whats the problem with correcting them to the right ones ?
[20:52] <Swian> anyone know a good app for converting a dvd to an avi or mpg
[20:52] <SteelPangolin> Swian: handbrake
[20:53] <Swian> thanks
[20:53] <basix-> is there a good picture/video editing program for ubuntu? i am looking for something to compare with what mac offers
[20:53] <vvcephei> RingZer0: that's a microsoft commercial
[20:53] <angevelon> dagon666, this means that my network shares are either a different drive entirley or to there at all, well i have dugg around google and ubuntu help for hours, and i cant find a good command to help me match my uuid to the correct volume name, so i know witch drive is witch
[20:53] <SteelPangolin> Swian: also, DVDs are already in a kind of MPEG format (MPEG-2 with some junk bolted on)
[20:53] <coz_> anyonw know how to increase the value  of   ulimit -l
[20:53] <xangua> basix-: gimp, krita, openshot, etc
[20:53] <dagon666> angevelon: example: sudo tune2fs -l /dev/sda1 | grep -i uuid
[20:53] <vvcephei> they took those quotes from their own focus groups, hired people to read them, and posted it to youtube
[20:53] <SteelPangolin> Swian: you might want to look into .mkv, which handbrake also does, if you want to capture menus, subtitles, etc.
[20:54] <Swian> yeah, I've learned about that format recently
[20:54] <ZykoticK9> SteelPangolin, Swian I love Handbrake but it doesn't do AVI or MPEG output anymore
[20:54] <dagon666> angevelon: there was even a shorter one but I dont remember right now
[20:54] <codydbgt> hello
[20:54] <Swian> .mkv is fine
[20:55] <ddilinger> basix-: so, you want $1000 software, pioneered by user interface architects and not software developers?  sad to say you wont find it
[20:55] <codydbgt> can any one help with a grub problem
[20:55] <magicianlord> how do you get around the alsa "device is busy" error?
[20:55] <SteelPangolin> basix-: Mac OS X has an image editor?
[20:55] <magicianlord> when trying to play sound from multiple apps
[20:55] <angevelon> daggon666, very cool thanks, so this will tell me what the sda name of a uuid is, or what the uuid of an sda name is? and once i get that matched, how do i know what the actual partition volume name is?
[20:55]  * Skaperen will be looking for some software to go the OTHER way on DVDs ... to convert his own videos into DVDs ... eventually (maybe next month or two)
[20:55] <hobomo> does anyone know a command to open two terminal sessions simultaneously and execute a script in each of them?
[20:55] <mamece2> hello, how can i install openlogos? i need it for my conky and theres a message JAVA DIR NO FOUND
[20:55] <codydbgt> win7 not shoing up in grub
[20:55] <codydbgt> help
[20:56] <SteelPangolin> Skaperen: that's fun on a bun, especially if you're re-encoding video compressed with a modern codec back to MPEG-2
[20:56] <basix-> ddilinger, hm.. actually the one i'm thinking of by mac is more like $100
[20:56] <duffydack> 'devede'
[20:56] <dagon666> angevelon: you can ommit the grep in this command and you'll get full partition info including its volume label
[20:56] <angevelon> dagon666, i think i should tell further about how i am trying to correct this problem, i would like to have each drive(by uuid) mount to its specific partition volume name in fstab on every reboot
[20:57] <codydbgt> can any here me
[20:57] <ddilinger> basix-: if you would actually say a program name maybee people wouldk now what you want
[20:57] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: my "videos" are actually time-lapse photos in PNG ... so pretty straight encoding
[20:57] <SteelPangolin> basix-, ddilinger: so  basix- you're looking for something more like iLife than Final Cut?
[20:57] <guntbert> codydbgt: yes
[20:57] <codydbgt> any one
[20:57] <codydbgt> oh
[20:57] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: and I will also want to do Blu-Ray
[20:57] <angevelon> dagon666, does that make sence?
[20:57] <codydbgt> good wasnt shur if it was working
[20:57] <dagon666> angevelon: yes
[20:57] <Jordan_U> codydbgt: What is the output of "sudo os-prober"?
[20:57] <codydbgt> let me check
[20:57] <SteelPangolin> Skaperen: cool! I think ffmpeg has an option to read sequential images and do just that
[20:58] <angevelon> dagon666, ok im trying your recomended command now
[20:58] <basix-> SteelPangolin, , yes iLife i was just going to search it on apple.com thanks..
[20:58] <aguitel_> i have acer aspire one D260 netbook ,anyone install ubuntu there?
[20:58] <basix-> i'm looking for something comparable to iLife
[20:58] <dagon666> angevelon: PM me
[20:58] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: yeah, I've dabbled in making .mpg files from the stack of .png files using it
[20:59] <codydbgt> /dev/sda1:Windows Vista (loader):Windows:chain
[20:59] <ZykoticK9> Skaperen, to create DVD Video disks I've personally had the most luck with DeVeDe (it's in default repo)
[20:59] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: but It's the whole DVD/BluRay authoring, menu making, etc ... that I will be looking for (once these photos are made)
[20:59] <SteelPangolin> i have a question related to basix-'s but with a narrower scope, specifically raster image editing - is there somthing like the Paint.NET project for Windows, but for Ubuntu? Maybe a cutdown version of the GIMP with a less awful UI?
[20:59] <Jordan_U> codydbgt: Good, then "sudo update-grub" should add an entry for it.
[20:59] <RudyValencia> Is it possible to seamlessly switch between wired and wireless networking?
[20:59] <codydbgt> no thats the recovery parttition
[20:59] <SteelPangolin> Skaperen: yeah... i usually got around that by burning SVCDs instead
[20:59] <SteelPangolin> no menu
[20:59] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: and I don't want to buy stuff from Adobe, etc, for it
[20:59] <codydbgt> its alreay in there
[21:00] <codydbgt> iv also posted on ubuntu forms
[21:00] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: these will also be HD ... 1920x1080p{24,25,30,50,60}
[21:00] <Jordan_U> codydbgt: That appears to be the only bootable windows partition you have. Did you by any chance delete any small ntfs partitions recently?
[21:00] <codydbgt> any other in fo you could use
[21:00] <codydbgt> ho about
[21:00] <codydbgt> how*
[21:00] <aliverius> is there some package other than "lamp", with say postgresql? i wish to use drupal but it depends on lamp
[21:01] <hobomo> does anyone know a command to open two xterm sessions simultaneously and execute a script in each of them?
[21:01] <codydbgt> fdisk -l

[21:02] <xenome> anyone know how to make X release it's hold on a device (ie /dev/input/XXX)
[21:02] <Skaperen> ugh ... old cylinder numbers :-(
[21:02] <SteelPangolin> Skaperen: just out of curiousity, what's the origin? scientific imaging? RAW camera shots? CG?
[21:02] <xenome> and can you do it w/o xinput?
[21:02] <codydbgt> joradn_u:so  now what
[21:03] <RudyValencia> I guess it's not possible to seamlessly switch networks
[21:03] <Jordan_U> codydbgt: That appears to be the only bootable windows partition you have. Did you by any chance delete any small ntfs partitions recently?
[21:03] <xinli_> I am go to sleep
[21:03] <retrospectacus> my fresh kubuntu won't boot, says ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/xxxxx... does not exist
[21:03] <anheuser> if in install the nvidia drivers from the Hardware Drivers control panel, do i need to purge the nouveau drivers still?
[21:03] <guntbert> RudyValencia: depends what you mean by "seamless"
[21:04] <codydbgt> i resised the mane windows 7 partition so i could load ubuntu
[21:04] <xinli_> nouveau has a bug in 10.04 and 10.10

[21:04] <phdp> I need basic SVN help. I made a SVN repo, I tested it using my laptop (it works, the checkout downloaded the 2 files). But I can't commit, update, or do anything, it always says "/home/X/Y/Z" is not a working copy... Where is the working copy ?
[21:04] <xinli_> It;s can't start dri when the system is boot
[21:04] <RudyValencia> (like, it times out and then I have to wait for my nick to clear
[21:04] <codydbgt> hello
[21:04] <Jordan_U> codydbgt: Could you run boot info script as explained here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and *pastebin* the RESULTS.txt using http://pastebin.ubuntu.com ?
[21:04] <RudyValencia> or clear it manually)
[21:05] <mamece2> hello, how can i install openlogos? i need it for my conky and theres a message JAVA DIR NO FOUND
[21:05] <anheuser> xinli, so yes do the purge command on the noveau drivers?
[21:05] <antIP> retrospectacus: Hmmm. It looks like kubuntu os looking for a particular drive to boot from and can't find it.
[21:05] <codydbgt> ok let em try
[21:05] <hobomo> Jordan_U: that doesnt seem to open them simultaneously, it does it sequentially
[21:05] <guntbert> RudyValencia: of course, you get a different IP address, and so connections must be built anew
[21:05] <Jordan_U> hobomo: Did you use '&' or '&&' ?
[21:05] <retrospectacus> antIP: thanks I'm gonna try some things I found on google
[21:05] <hobomo> Jordan_U: &
[21:05] <RudyValencia> too bad I have to reconnect to IRC every time
[21:05] <RudyValencia> :/
[21:05] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: various dabbles ... mostly Christmas panorama images ... here's an old example in low res javascript form:  http://wheeling.wv.myohiovalley.net/vance/
[21:05] <hobomo> Jordan_U: is there a difference?
[21:06] <Jordan_U> hobomo: Yes.
[21:06] <retrospectacus> antIP: booting recovery mode works
[21:06] <Jordan_U> hobomo: What is the exact command you ran?
[21:06] <sensisensi> hi. maybe this is dumb. i want to install lubuntu on my old laptop (fresh install). i just burn the iso on a cd then restart laptop and boot from cdrom right?
[21:06] <SteelPangolin> Jordan_U: i have been wondering about the difference for years (grew up on tcsh). && is the sequential one?
[21:06] <ikonia> !install > sensisensi
[21:06] <ikonia> SteelPangolin: it's that simple
[21:06] <Random832> SteelPangolin: && means "if the first command is successful do the second one"
[21:06] <Random832> & means "run the first command in the background"
[21:06] <antIP> retrospectacus: Yeah, I had the same problem yesterday while trying to install a distro from a flash drive and the installation needed my drive to be named something in particular: weired.  I had to change my drive label.
[21:06] <retrospectacus> antIP: nope it doesn't... says a bunch and then the same thing
[21:06] <Random832> they're not really related in the way you seem to think, other thn having the same punctuation
[21:06] <Dulak> SteelPangolin: it's logical and

[21:07] <gkffcks> Hey all, I have a scanner connected to my computer, I can use it with the "simple scan" app, no probs, I added a second user to my system, and whenever that use tries to use it, they get a "no scanners found error" P.S. I'm still on 10.04 fyi..

[21:07] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: I use && a lot in commands and scripts for sequential-and
[21:07] <Dulak> retrospectacus: go into your bios and turn on legacy usb support
[21:07] <mamece2> hello, how can i install openlogos? i need it for my conky and theres a message JAVA DIR NO FOUND
[21:08] <hobomo> Jordan_U: i need both of those scripts to run at the same time, but i want to give the first script a second to initialize
[21:08] <yener> hay
[21:08] <yener> how are you
[21:08] <retrospectacus> Dulak: it is on
[21:08] <guntbert> yener: this is the ubuntu support channel.  Do you have an ubuntu support question?
[21:08] <Jordan_U> hobomo: The "sleep 1" in that is doing nothing, as using '&' means that it is also running in the background. So all three commands are running at the same time.
[21:09] <antIP> retrospectacus: Honestly, I don't have a lot of experience in this department. In my case it was searching for a device by label /dev/disk/by-label/<label> - I just had to change the label of the flash drive I was booting from. Did you install from a USB drive?
[21:09] <SteelPangolin> Skaperen: heh, every time i end up writing a largish script, i end up screaming at the bash manual and rewriting it in Python, or in one terrifying instance, Haskell
[21:09] <Dulak> retrospectacus: that's the bit that would affect the keyboard before the drivers are loaded
[21:09] <mamece2> hello, how can i install openlogos? i need it for my conky and theres a message JAVA DIR NO FOUND
[21:09] <retrospectacus> antIP: installed from CD to hdd, it was working fine. I upgraded the kernel and now this
[21:09] <Skaperen> SteelPangolin: Python would very often be a suitable language to use, anyway
[21:10] <hobomo> Jordan_U: ok that makes sense now. so how would i start the second script a second after the first? im trying to keep this in one command so i can alias it.
[21:10] <codydbgt> ok jordan_u http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/515215/
[21:10] <SteelPangolin> Skaperen: i look forward to the day IPython is actually good enough to use as a shell
[21:10] <SteelPangolin> also, the day IPython stops depending on all of SciPy, NumPy, ATLAS, BLAS, etc...

[21:15] <basix-> does ubuntu have a suite package similar to iLife?
[21:15] <Jordan_U> codydbgt: sda3 is not a bootable windows partition (it does not have a /boot/bcd).
[21:15] <codydbgt> so what do i do
[21:15] <codydbgt> add somthing
[21:15] <hobomo> Jordan_U: so if these scripts are running in the background, how do i stop them? will they automatically stop when i close the terminal?
[21:16] <Dulak> basix-: not a suite but there are apps in linux that do virtually everything ilife can do
[21:16] <codydbgt> how would i fix that
[21:16] <Slipknot6669> Anyone? Drivers not functioning properly in 10.10?
[21:17] <basix-> Dulak, k
[21:17] <uLinux> compiz --replace
[21:17] <Jordan_U> hobomo: Yes (though the scripts can be made to continue even after the terminal is closed if you wanted them to).
[21:17] <codydbgt> jordan_u: how would i fix that
[21:18] <Jordan_U> codydbgt: You'd have to ask in ##windows (or re-install windows).
[21:18] <codydbgt> so i cant just download them from some where
[21:18] <Jordan_U> codydbgt: You'd have to ask in ##windows

[21:22] <jeom> Hello. My netbook has a 64-capable cpu. Would you reccomend running the 32-bit or 64-bit version of Ubuntu?
[21:22] <SteelPangolin> ehcah: probably, NTFS "access control lists" (ACLs) are fairly complicated and don't map directly to Linux ACLs

[21:27] <codydbgt> is that what you were sayign

[21:28] <jeom> bahadunn : so it wouldn't have any benefit?
[21:28] <Jordan_U> codydbgt: That is to show that the channel is not affiliated with Microsoft, whereas #ubuntu is an official Ubuntu channel.
[21:28] <SteelPangolin> ehcah: sorry that's /proc/mounts, forgot the trailing s
[21:29] <SteelPangolin> ehcah: near as i can figure out it's like running the mount command with no args but shows some stuff that mount gets confused about
[21:29] <codydbgt> ok i guss....i still dont get it
[21:29] <maxpower> hey yall
[21:29] <codydbgt> oh well
[21:29] <rockhopper> What is the best virtualisation software for using in ubuntu?
[21:29] <guntbert> !best | RockerBoy402
[21:30] <guntbert> rockhopper: ^^
[21:30] <maxpower_> hah
[21:30] <ehcah> SteelPangolin: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/515222/
[21:30] <SteelPangolin> rockhopper: depends on your processor
[21:30] <SteelPangolin> rockhopper: and budget
[21:30] <altin> SteelPangolin do u know  why ubuntu 10.10 doesnt boot from live CD at some computers, even in good ones ??
[21:30] <maxpower_> why? what is the lightest virtualization?
[21:30] <Jordan_U> codydbgt: You are on an irc network, freenode, which contains many support channels. Currently you are in the #ubuntu channel on freenode, if you type "/join ##windows" you will join the windows support channel on freenode.
[21:30] <rockhopper> SteelPangolin, I'm thinking of running it on a dedicated atom processor based computer.
[21:30] <maxpower_> I had a few problems with 10.10 install/live CD as well
[21:30] <SteelPangolin> maxpower_: it's a matter of processor features
[21:30] <rusty149> rockhopper: I use vmware. It is excellent
[21:30] <codydbgt> ok let me try

[21:31] <Jordan_U> !ot | Psuedoreality
[21:31] <SteelPangolin> rockhopper: i don't think Atoms come with Intel's virtualization extensions, so you're going to notice major slowdowns. I might be wrong about this on pine trail but I think Intel likes to keep Atom segmented into the consumer market, so no VT-x
[21:31] <maxpower_> oh, ok. thanks..I thought that maybe there were some virtualization that sucks more cycles than necessary

[21:32] <rockhopper> SteelPangolin, Yes atom doesn't come with any special virtualization extensions
[21:32] <SteelPangolin> maxpower_: there sure are, but the difference between virtualization and emulation is more important to speed, usually
[21:32] <Aquarina> one of those with a rotating touch screen?

[21:33] <SteelPangolin> rockhopper: you might want to reconsider your plan, but i believe virtualbox can run without VT-x or the AMD equivalent
[21:34] <SteelPangolin> been a while since i used it though so check the VirtualBox FAQ first
[21:34] <Aquarina> does ubuntu work ok with an eeepc t101mt?
[21:34] <rockhopper> SteelPangolin, thanks.
[21:34] <klooluss> I'm using Lucis 64bit BTW
[21:34] <rockhopper> Aquarina, yes it will
[21:34] <SteelPangolin> rockhopper: VMware Server can run without VT-x as well - if they still have a free Linux versio you might want to look into that
[21:34] <rockhopper> SteelPangolin, ok
[21:35] <SteelPangolin> rockhopper: oh, and if this is for a machine not yet built, you might want to look at other processor vendors that do have virt extensions in the low end - AMD and possibly VIA

[21:39] <ikonia> !isc > cjc
[21:39] <ikonia> !ics > cjc
[21:39] <_jesse_> gkffcks: I did try that, note the second command
[21:39] <vdubhack> rsync -v -e ssh username@remotehost:~/GumWorld ~/GumWorld
[21:40] <SteelPangolin> vdubhack: also rsync with the -n option will do a dry run and tell you which files would have been transferred or updated or deleted without actually changing anything
[21:40] <Jordan_U> hobomo: What is happening and what would you like to happen instead?
[21:40] <_jesse_> gkffcks: I try -s 0 and it says there are 0 sizes
[21:40] <SteelPangolin> vdubhack: you need the -r option to do recursive sync, or the -a option (which includes -r) to do the same preserving permissions
[21:40] <SteelPangolin> vdubhack: and modification dates, etc.
[21:41] <hobomo> i originally had this working in gnome-terminal using the following command -> gnome-terminal --tab -t gameServer1.py -e "python /media/F5B6-D9E4/pythongame/newapp/gameServer1.py & sleep 1" --tab -t newclient.py -e "python /media/F5B6-D9E4/pythongame/newapp/newclient.py"
[21:41] <vdubhack> @SteelPangolin and that wont delete any files correct?
[21:41] <Leemp> How would i launch a terminal with a different shell? Ie, i want terminal to open with zsh automatically, how would this be done?
[21:41] <hobomo> Jordan_U: im just looking for a way to emulate that command in xterm (ie without tabs)
[21:41] <SteelPangolin> vdubhack: as long as you have the -n option, rsync will not delete anything. Actually, I'm not sure it can delete anything without the --delete flag normally
[21:41] <ikonia> Leemp: change the users default shell to be zsh
[21:42] <gkffcks> _jesse_: did you try -s 1?
[21:42] <Leemp> ikonia: How?
[21:42] <SteelPangolin> vdubhack: but check the docs, http://rsync.samba.org/
[21:42] <ikonia> Leemp: users and groups, change the users default shell in that
[21:42] <Leemp> Well i figured out one way just now, i can simply create an icon to open zsh in terminal
[21:42] <Leemp> ikonia: Thanks
[21:42] <etheretic1> Is there a program which compares the contents of several harddisks making duplicate and triplicate files known? Preferably gui.
[21:43] <luca> hi all - how do I automount my NTFS drive? thanks
[21:43] <fwaokda> Whats the shortcut to switch between virtual desktops?
[21:43] <ikonia> !awat > rockhopper
[21:43] <ikonia> !away > rockhopper
[21:43] <_jesse_> gkffjcs: indeed, same error
[21:43] <Leemp> ikonia: Do i need to restart the desktop after a change like that? Because it didn't seem to work
[21:43] <rockhopper> ikonia, what?
[21:43] <ikonia> rockhopper: check the pm from ubottu
[21:43] <ikonia> Leemp: errrr, you shouldn't need to no
[21:43] <vdubhack> @SteelPangolin ok thanks a bunch so just so I am clear -v -e -a -n blabla will check the remote folder and sync the local to it as a dry run ?
[21:44] <hobomo> Jordan_U: with this command it opens the first tab and executes the script, waits a second, then opens the second tab and executes the second script
[21:44] <rockhopper> ikonia, sorry, i'm on a bouncer and i got disconencted. It changes its name automatically.
[21:45] <zorbix> Hello. My wifi is protected by a password. I experience frequent power outages so each time the router powers up again Ubuntu doesn't connect to the network but instead shows the enter password window. How do I automate this so that my downloads aren't interrupted when I am not at the computer?
[21:45] <mubtasim> Can anyone tell me how can i install wubi cause when ever i want to try it always says eror no metalink of c:\windows\temp\wubi-10.04.1-rev190.log and no iso how can i use ubuntu without burning cd-dvd or floppy?
[21:46] <SteelPangolin> Dulak: tuxpaint is ... um, how do i say this politely ... insufficient to requirements. Know of anything closer to PhotoShop LE (Lite, Consumer Edition, whatever they're calling it now), Paint Shop Pro, or Paint.NET, and less intended for children?
[21:47] <Dulak> SteelPangolin: the gimp, inkscape, pinta
[21:47] <_jesse_> gkffjcs: any other suggestions? :/
[21:47] <Dulak> SteelPangolin: I suggest you google
[21:47] <etheretic1> SteelPangolin: gimp, xara.
[21:47] <SteelPangolin> Dulak: already got inkscape, that's a vector editor, but thanks. I'll look into pinta and xara.,
[21:47] <SteelPangolin> and hit google if i can't find anything
[21:48] <trism> SteelPangolin: mypaint
[21:48] <miststlkr> changing the label n an ext4 partition using gparted I get the warning that this may cause data loss.  "may cause" as in once ever and we are covering our rumps, or am I better off just leaving the label as is?
[21:48] <etheretic1> SteelPangolin: xara is vector, gimp bitmap.
[21:48] <pigdude> how do I make my home directory my desktop on ubuntu?
[21:48] <pigdude> isn't it a gconf-editor thing?
[21:49] <zorbix> Anybody?
[21:49] <blakkheim> pigdude: rm -r ~/Desktop; ln -s /home/yourusername /home/yourusername/Desktop
[21:49] <pigdude> blakkheim, no there is a way to specify it
[21:49] <SteelPangolin> etheretic1: i'm trying to avoid the GIMP, or at least get something like Seashell on MacOS, which is the GIMP with an improved UI. Pinta might be exactly what I'm looking for.
[21:49] <SteelPangolin> if it works...
[21:50] <khalidmian> i can only run ubuntu in failsafe mode can anyone help?

[21:51] <demlasjr> guys.....can somebody ask me ?
[21:52] <bobbi> hi, i have screen flickering on every virtual console, and unable to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst, which fixed the problem in 9.04. anyone?
[21:52] <cjc> ikonia: I think all I need to do is to enable packet forwarding across two network interfaces (ath0 and eth0)?
[21:52] <Slipknot6669> Can anyone give me some help with ATI drivers not functioning properly in Ubuntu 10.10
[21:52] <hobomo> Jordan_U: nevermind, getting rid of the "sleep 1" seems to fix things. not sure why that was causing a problem.
[21:52] <ikonia> cjc: ubottu sent you a guide
[21:53] <zorbix> Slipknott6669: What exactly is the problem with the driver?
[21:53] <Slipknot6669> Not sure.
[21:53] <zorbix> Did you install it using the Additional Drivers utility?
[21:54] <Slipknot6669> I upgraded to 10.10 and the driver download didnt come up. So I got it with the Software Center and it says "Driver not functioning properly."
[21:54] <zorbix> Have you tried opening up the Additional Drivers utility?
[21:54] <Slipknot6669> Yes
[21:54] <Slipknot6669> got it both ways and still nothing
[21:55] <zorbix> Try removing the driver and then reinstalling it
[21:55] <chrissharp123> khalidmian: what happens when you run Ubuntu normally?
[21:55] <Slipknot6669> Ok let me do that real quick.
[21:55] <cjc> ikonia: yes I have read them
[21:55] <ikonia> cjc: ok, so that explains what to do
[21:56] <chocobanana> pigdude: don't know the underpinning for what you're asking but Ubuntu Tweak can do that for you
[21:56] <Slipknot6669> Should I do a reboot before reinstalling or no?
[21:56] <_LibertyZero> pigdude: gconftool -t bool -s /apps/nautilus/preferences/desktop_is_home_dir true
[21:57] <pigdude> _LibertyZero, oh right it's in nautilus
[21:57] <pigdude> _LibertyZero, thanks!
[21:57] <zorbix> Not sure
[21:58] <Slipknot6669> I go ahead and do it. It couldnt hurt. I wouldnt think anyway.
[21:58] <cjc> ikonia: no I think my situation is different the computer I want to do it on is not the gateway
[21:58] <Administrador> Hi
[21:58] <zorbix> Alright. GO on.
[21:58] <Administrador> Can someone help me
[21:58] <Administrador> please
[21:58] <pigdude> thanks! worked
[21:58] <ikonia> cjc: then you need to do multiple forwards, the technique is the same
[21:58] <cjc> ikonia: my home router is the gateway
[21:58] <pigdude> had to log out and back in
[21:58] <mobasher> !ask | ADministrador
[21:59] <zorbix> Administrador: Please be more specific
[21:59] <Administrador> ok obottu, thank you!.
[22:00] <MrKeuner> do I want maverick or should I wait April, assuming April versions are more stable...
[22:01] <pigdude> MrKeuner, I had big issues w/ Maverick
[22:01] <MrKeuner> pigdude, hardware/
[22:01] <MrKeuner> pigdude, hardware?
[22:02] <Oer> no issues here :-)
[22:02] <pigdude> MrKeuner, weird choppy peformance
[22:02] <xangua> MrKeuner: if you want stability use LTS
[22:02] <pigdude> debian lenny is working great here
[22:02] <pigdude> the wifi was just a make make install reboot
[22:02] <MrKeuner> xangua, you mean wait for 1.5 years more or just till April?
[22:02] <cjc> ikonia: which part of the guide are you referring to please?
[22:02] <ehcah> SteelPangolin: Had to step out and picked up one of the kids. Can you think of any reason why I should create that partition in NTFS at all?
[22:02] <pigdude> for once i'm not using kde
[22:02] <xangua> MrKeuner: lucid is LTS...
[22:02] <pigdude> I don't like kde 4 and I know it's everywhere now
[22:02] <ehcah> SteelPangolin: Couldn't virtual OS's sit on any folder type?
[22:03] <SteelPangolin> ehcah: unless you're booting from raw partitions, no. I'd format as extN and use hard drive files.
[22:03] <Slipknot6669> Ok this is weird. I uninstalled and rebooted. When I went to reinstall. It says that the driver is activated and currently in use, but doesnt show the Catalyst Center in System/Preferences. Where it should be.
[22:03] <MrKeuner> LTS is the most stable but but April releases are more stable than October releases, right?
[22:03] <Skaperen> so will zippy zebra be LTS?
[22:03] <MKM> hi.., why do we use reflective architectural pattern..??
[22:04] <ehcah> SteelPangolin: I'm not sure why it took a drive to figure that one out. I was thinking of the format Windows OS's require as standalone and not in VOS.
[22:04] <george> hey my autorun doesn't work . how can i make it work
[22:04] <aleixosk> hi everybody, I have  pci card which isn't working. It's there; the output of lspci is alright, but t's just not being used... iwconfig doesn't show it. I don't really know what to do now.
[22:04] <khalidmian> i can only run ubuntu in failsafe mode despite installing the driver for my nvidia card, can anyone pls assist/help?
[22:04] <Administrador> I've installed ubuntu 10.04.1, but I can not connect to internet.I have XP on another partition so XP can connect automatically.Before I install Ubuntu 10.04.1 I had  Ubuntu 9.04 and this could connect to internet automatically.I've created a new connection and I've  configured like connection in XP so it does not solve the problem...I'm almost crazy!...Someone can help me or kows what do ia have to do please
[22:04] <zorbix> Even the Additional Drivers utility says that the driver is activated?
[22:05] <aleixosk>  It was working until two hours ago and then it wouldn't connect to my home network (that happens. sometimes. broadcom.) So I took it out an put it back where it was, and now this happens...
[22:05] <cjc> do I have to use IP tables to get packets to forward across network interfaces?
[22:05] <Slipknot6669> Yes.
[22:05] <SteelPangolin> ehcah: what virt software are you using?
[22:05] <Slipknot6669> Thats what I used this time.
[22:05] <zorbix> Are you able to enable Desktop Effects?
[22:05] <kad_> heys guys, quick question: i have unbuntu 10.04 and i want to install now 10.10 , before i was making a split structure : /home is not part of "/" during install, when i install ubuntu 1010 now, Does my /home affect? thx
[22:05] <george> i recently installed macubuntu now my autorun doesn't work
[22:05] <Slipknot6669> Not sure how to. Just been using Linux a few days now.
[22:05] <oskar-> cjc:  no, just enable forwarding and let the FORWARD chain's policy allow packets to cross
[22:06] <ehcah> SteelPangolin: Oracle Virtual Box with USB support.
[22:06] <MKM> hi.., why do we use reflective architectural pattern..??
[22:06] <MKM> hi.., why do we use reflective architectural pattern..??
[22:06] <SteelPangolin> ehcah: VirtualBox should support disk images. Everything else does.
[22:06] <khalidmian> i am currently getting this error : you do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.  Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.
[22:06] <zorbix> Right click on the dekstop, change desktop properties,  then go to the Visual Effects tab
[22:06] <MKM> ubottu :hi.., why do we use reflective architectural pattern..??
[22:07] <zorbix> Select 'Normal' from the Visual Effects tab and see what happens
[22:07] <chrissharp123> khalidmian: so what happens when you do 'nvidia-xconfig'?
[22:07] <ehcah> SteelPangolin: In my past install's, I've never moved the virtual disk out of the the system drive defaults.... Hence why I should have been smarter about this one....
[22:07] <Slipknot6669> They are working.
[22:07] <cjc> oskar-: would that be achieved through an ifconfig command?
[22:07] <Slipknot6669> That is kewl btw!!!
[22:08] <zorbix> Then I guess your driver is working fine
[22:08] <Administrador> can i put the same question
[22:08] <Slipknot6669> Works for me.
[22:08] <Administrador> ?
[22:08] <zorbix> The ATI Catalyst Control Center should be under System>Preferences
[22:08] <Slipknot6669> Thanks, zorbix, for the input!!
[22:09] <Slipknot6669> Yeah I know, but its not
[22:09] <zorbix> I just got my ATI drivers installed today :)
[22:09] <oskar-> cjc:  afaik, you should set "net.ipv4.ip_forward" to 1 in /etc/sysctl.conf and load the file's settings by "sysctl -p"
[22:09] <Slipknot6669> Ill try another reboot, and see what happens.
[22:09] <Administrador> I've installed ubuntu 10.04.1, but I can not connect to internet.I have XP on another partition so XP can connect automatically.Before I install Ubuntu 10.04.1 I had  Ubuntu 9.04 and this could connect to internet automatically.I've created a new connection and I've  configured like connection in XP so it does not solve the problem...I'm almost crazy!...Someone can help me or kows what do ia have to do please

[22:11] <gnuskool> Will someone plz seed  the ubuntu torrent on the official site plz
[22:11] <gnuskool> desktop ver 32bit
[22:12] <gnuskool> got 12mb left
[22:12] <Jordan_U> prusik: Could you run boot info script as explained here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and pastebin the RESULTS.txt?
[22:13] <sandy123> OH HAI!
[22:13] <Slipknot6669> So I rebooted and graphics still seem to be working properly, but still no Catalyst in System>Preferences.
[22:13] <Jordan_U> gnuskool: There are always many people seeding all of the official Ubuntu torrents. If it doesn't appear so to you it's likely a problem with your client / connection.
[22:14] <Jordan_U> gnuskool: Or maybe the tracker being down.
[22:14] <gnuskool> Jordan_U: true, iam using the bitlet.org virtual client
[22:14] <Jordan_U> gnuskool: You can use zsync to get the last 12 meg via http.
[22:14] <Slipknot6669> Is there a program equivalent to ConvertXtoDVD on windows. For linux?
[22:14] <Administrador> someone does know about internet connection issue with ubuntu 10.04.1

[22:16] <oskar-> cjc:  if you want to do bridging instead of routing between the interfaces, you also want to create a virtual bridge device and add the interfaces to it. IP configuration would then be done on the virtual bridge device
[22:16] <Slipknot6669> Thanks ubottu. Ill check that out. Does it convert as well or just burn?
[22:16] <kz6090> it converts
[22:17] <Slipknot6669> Cool.
[22:17] <Slipknot6669> Thanks.
[22:17] <Jordan_U> gnuskool: zsync http://releases.ubuntu.com/maverick/ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso.zsync -i /path/to/partially/downloaded.iso

[22:18] <tatar> is there a way to upgrade the ubuntu kernel to a newer version using a deb?
[22:18] <SteelPangolin> Skaperen: someone just mentioned devede as a program for generating DVD file/folder structures, you might want to look into that later

[22:19] <cozziemoto> hey guys,  trying to set  max memory lock form 64  to unlimited,..yet even editing /etc/securitly/limits.conf  does nothing and ulimit -l still reports 64...does anyone know how to force unliminted on maverick?
[22:19] <Administrador> someone does know about internet connection issue with ubuntu 10.04.1?
[22:20] <ddilinger> Administrador: thats a very detailed question you have there
[22:20] <ikonia> Administrador: why don't you explain the problem you are having a little more
[22:20] <moern> Hi there, can you tell me how I can copy my Evolution settings to another computer?
[22:20] <SteelPangolin> oskar-: know if there's a way to bridge two Ethernet devices at the Ethernet level?
[22:20] <moern> I already copied .evolution and .gconf/apps/evolution but my accounts still don't appear here.
[22:20] <ddilinger> Administrador: whats your native language?  there might be a channel we can direct you to that can communicate more directly
[22:21] <blakkheim> ddilinger: that was pretty funny
[22:21] <ddilinger> blakkheim: oracle would never think of taking your money to suport OO, i'm sure :P
[22:21] <jambolao> zmto legal
[22:21] <Administrador> ddilinger, ikonia, ok, I've installed Ubuntu 10.04.1 so this version cannot connect to internet, I tried configuring like xp, with the same ip, subnet mak,etc but it does not solve the problem, so I don't know what to do
[22:22] <erUSUL> cozziemoto: can you show the lines you added to /etc/securitly/limits.conf ? maybe there is syntax error?
[22:22] <cozziemoto> erUSUL,  sure hold on
[22:23] <ddilinger> Administrador: if you 'sudo /sbin/ifconfig' does it list your address?
[22:23] <cryptodira> anyone have a solution for keeping the backlit keyboard operational beyond the initial boot-up.... changing bios settings has not effect once the splash page shows up.... toshiba satellite, amd64 components.. minor for most folks, but i live off-grid and am trying to be frugal with my energy use.... Thanks.
[22:23] <ikonia> Administrador: ok - first of all, the version of ubuntu isn't the problem here
[22:23] <ikonia> Administrador: what is the ip address you where using on XP
[22:24] <Administrador> ikonia, IP in xp : 192.168.1.2
[22:24] <jiohdi> is there a way to change the splash page on 10.10
[22:24] <prusik> Jordan_U, http://paste.ubuntu.com/515244/

[22:24] <aleixosk> hi everybody, I have  pci card which isn't working. It's there; the output of lspci is alright, but t's just not being used... iwconfig doesn't show it. I don't really know what to do now.
[22:24] <Slipknot6669> One more thing. Is there anyway to delay or completely shut off the way the pc goes to sleep after five min or so?
[22:24] <aleixosk> It was working until two hours ago and then it wouldn't connect to my home network (that happens. sometimes. broadcom.) So I took it out an put it back where it was, and now this happens...
[22:25] <aleixosk> anybody?
[22:25] <hblount> Hi.I am installing lubuntu from cd on my old laptop. Right now it is a black screen that says loading...like 15 min like this.is this normal?
[22:25] <cozziemoto> erUSUL,   here you go   http://pastebin.com/3H4Drg1F
[22:25] <ddilinger> Slipknot6669: use the at command
[22:25] <cjc> prusik: was your Ubuntu installation working fine before?
[22:25] <Administrador> ikonia, really I dont know, but with command ipconfig /all in xp i get : DHCP Enabled : No
[22:25] <ddilinger> Slipknot6669: at 5pm shutdown -h now or some such
[22:25] <khalidmian> getting the following error : You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.  Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.
[22:25] <ikonia> Administrador: very interesting, is this a desktop or a laptop ?
[22:26] <Slipknot6669> Im a newbie. What exactly is the at command?
[22:26] <prusik> yeah, no problems... - and I don't know what I've done especially before - may be kernel update - this I'm not quite sure
[22:26] <daire> I prefer to customize and create an icon theme what program do I need?
[22:26] <ddilinger> Slipknot6669: open a terminal type 'man at'
[22:26] <mhl> Hi there. Is there a way to execute a script whenever I put my laptop to sleep?
[22:26] <ddilinger> Slipknot6669: man stands for manual page, that will get you the manual for the at command
[22:26] <Slipknot6669> Nice. Thank you.
[22:26] <hblount> Hi.I am installing lubuntu from cd on my old laptop. Right now it is a black screen that says loading...like 15 min like this.is this normal?
[22:27] <jiohdi> khalidmian: was it working before?
[22:27] <khalidmian> jiohdi: no
[22:27] <jiohdi> khalidmian: did you down load the drivers for it?
[22:27] <Administrador> ikonia, desktop and the network card is a realtek RTL8139/810x Family Fast Ethernet
[22:27] <cjc> how do I check my DNS server IP address from within Ubuntu
[22:27]  * ddilinger lols, the at command also takes 'teatime' as a valid time of day
[22:27] <erUSUL> cjc: cat /etc/resolv.conf
[22:27] <ikonia> cjc: look in /etc/resolc.conf
[22:27] <ikonia> ddilinger: please give the /me commands a reset
[22:27] <ikonia> rest
[22:28] <khalidmian> jiohdi: just installed ubuntu newbie here trying to figure out how to run ubuntu on laptop other then failsafe mode
[22:28] <Jordan_U> prusik: That is some very odd output. Are you using FakeRAID or anything else unusual?
[22:28] <ikonia> Administrador: open system->administrator->hardware drivers, is your network card listed in that tool ?
[22:28] <jiohdi> khalidmian: there is usually an indicator by the rest of the indicators for new hardware
[22:28] <ddilinger> ikonia: so i scroll back and i can only find a single usage, the problem?
[22:28] <khalidmian> jiohdi: used system/admin /additional software
[22:28] <erUSUL> cozziemoto: are you sure it takes unlimited as arg? i think you have to put 0 to mean unlimitted
[22:28] <oskar-> SteelPangolin:  this is, what the bridge driver does
[22:28] <ikonia> ddilinger: when it's pointless noise, yes
[22:29] <jiohdi> khalidmian: this should show up as a hardware issue
[22:29] <Administrador> ikonia, in ubuntu the list apperas empty
[22:29] <prusik> Jordan_U, no, it was a Win Vista machine, but I completely formatted it long time ago - and it worked without problems... - I do not know what I did special before the error occured - I am not sure if it's a hardware defect?
[22:29] <cozziemoto> erUSUL, well those entries were offered on the #ardour channel   so ... no  .. I am not sure at all ..everything I have tried has changed nothing
[22:29] <ddilinger> ikonia: i am helping someone with the 'at' command, and while reading the at command manual page i come across potentially usefull information, sharing information on default installed ubuntu programs is only noise ?
[22:29] <Administrador> ikonia, in ubuntu the list appears empty
[22:29] <daire_> any person prefer to assist me in creating an icon theme for ubuntu 9.10...I prefer to create a logo and put it in place of the applications logo at the top left of the screen
[22:29] <khalidmian> jiohdi: new so i need assist on resolution if any
[22:29] <ikonia> ddilinger: no, pontless /me commands are just noise, please give them a rest
[22:29] <jiohdi> khalidmian: it will not work until you get the new hardware/software
[22:30] <ikonia> Administrador: ok, so in theory your card seemst to be nativly supported
[22:30] <cozziemoto> erUSUL,  and this is the first ubuntu version that spits out the low max memory  for recording
[22:30] <Jordan_U> prusik: Were you dual booting Ubuntu and windows?
[22:30] <erUSUL> cozziemoto: this is what quick google gived me ┬½ @audio       -       memlock          0
[22:30] <cozziemoto> erUSUL,   ok I will try that now to see if it makes a difference...thanks
[22:30] <cryptodira> anyone have a solution for keeping the backlit keyboard operational beyond the initial boot-up.... changing bios settings has not effect once the splash page shows up.... toshiba satellite, amd64 components.. minor for most folks, but i live off-grid and am trying to be frugal with my energy use.... Thanks.
[22:30] <ddilinger> ikonia: shall have to agree to disagree
[22:30] <khalidmian> jiohdi: i already have nvidia card in my laptop
[22:30] <erUSUL> cozziemoto: no problem
[22:30] <suprengr> ikonia: got a minute ?
[22:30] <ikonia> ddilinger: no, it's not a discussion, I'm now telling you to not do it please
[22:30] <ikonia> suprengr: sure
[22:31] <jiohdi> khalidmian: yes, you need to find the right driver for it
[22:31] <prusik> Jordan_U, no... - only Ubuntu - I have problems believing that the partition should be NTFS - I'm not as stupid I think ;-)
[22:31] <suprengr> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/515245/
[22:31] <ikonia> suprengr: ok, what am i looking at here ?
[22:31] <khalidmian> jiohdi: i installed as per ercommendation on additional driver install
[22:31] <greko> hello
[22:31] <hblount> Hi.I am installing lubuntu from cd on my old laptop. Right now it is a black screen that says loading...like 15 min like this.is this normal?
[22:32] <jiohdi> khalidmian: did you find an Nvidia settings icon in the admin listings?
[22:32] <mhl> Is there any way to execute a script whenever I put my laptop to sleep?
[22:32] <suprengr> ikonia: it is a known bug / degradation between 9.4 & 9.10
[22:32] <V-ille> gotta love this upstream bug http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/11089
[22:32] <khalidmian> jiohdi: sorry you lost me there
[22:32] <ikonia> suprengr: ok
[22:32] <ikonia> V-ille: please don't post non-ubuntu stuff in here
[22:32] <Administrador> ikonia, in 9.04 connect to internet automatically, In another machine with the same hardware I've upgraded from 9.04 to 10.04 and I dis not have problems
[22:32] <ikonia> suprengr: how can I help?
[22:32] <suprengr> ikonia: ...and is the same in both 10.xx versions
[22:32] <jiohdi> khalidmian: system/admin/ should have nvidia
[22:32] <Travis-42> When backing up a computer with an Encrypted "~/Private" directory, what do I have to backup to make sure that I backup the encrypted version of the directory?
[22:32] <ikonia> suprengr: ok, again, how can I help ?
[22:32] <ddilinger> ikonia: i still have to agree to disagree, i re-reviewed the channel guidlines as posted in the topic and your position has no basis there
[22:32] <SharpTeeth> hello
[22:32] <V-ille> ikonia: the bug is present on my ubuntu as well
[22:32] <ilovefairuz> khalidmian: system > administration > hardware drivers.. is your card listed there? enable it
[22:32] <khalidmian> jiohdi: yes it did
[22:33] <ikonia> V-ille: it's an upstream bug, not an ubuntu bug
[22:33] <jiohdi> khalidmian: does it come up/
[22:33] <cozziemoto> erUSUL,  well  I rebooted with that 0 entry and still at   64  with ulimit -l
[22:33] <cozziemoto> erUSUL,   i will keep  googling :)  thanks again
[22:33] <prusik> Jordan_U, yesterday I tried to do what is called on lines 48 -50 - but the windows installer told me, that there is no hard drive and stopped
[22:33] <khalidmian> jiohdi: it now states the following: the driver is activated and currently in use
[22:33] <cryptodira> perhaps a better approach.... what component of ubuntu 10.04 / 64 bit, is causing the death of the keyboard backlight at the splash page?
[22:33] <SharpTeeth> how can i make Python 2.7 (installed just now on Ubuntu 10.10) as my default Python interpreter?
[22:33] <Jordan_U> prusik: As you can see, for some reason you have a partition table showing no linux partitions, and at least one windows ntfs partition *with windows files on it*.
[22:33] <ikonia> ddilinger: if you want to argue it - join #ubuntu-ops and take it up with the channel operators, if you don't, please don't do it again
[22:33] <jiohdi> khalidmian: you should be good to go
[22:33] <LuisCarlos> Hi. I can not install 10.10 Netbook in my Asus EEE 1002HA. I've installed many linux (ubuntu included) in this netbook, but htis verion get stucked
[22:33] <erUSUL> cozziemoto: are you sure you belong to the audio group ?
[22:34] <ilovefairuz> khalidmian: paste the output of: sudo lshw -C display .. use http://paste.ubuntu.com
[22:34] <LuisCarlos> I chose Install and it does not do anything else
[22:34] <khalidmian> jiohdi: apprently not because i can only run ubuntu under failsfe mode
[22:34] <suprengr> ikonia: just getting you thew bug number
[22:34] <jiohdi> khalidmian: did you try to reboot?
[22:34] <prusik> Jordan_U, I know that there is a media center on the hard drive - may be it is this one? - this could start, but told me that the hard drive couldn't be read for searching music
[22:34] <ikonia> suprengr: I can't fix the bug
[22:34] <LuisCarlos> In fact, I'm now using it, live version running from an USB
[22:34] <ikonia> suprengr: put a comment on the bug if you want to progress it
[22:34] <basix-> is there a sort of media center program for ubuntu similar to windows media center?
[22:34] <SharpTeeth> how can i make Python 2.7 (installed just now on Ubuntu 10.10) as my default Python interpreter?
[22:34] <erUSUL> cozziemoto: also login out and login in is all you need for the changes to apply
[22:35] <Jordan_U> prusik: So you were dual booting, or at least had both Ubuntu and windows installed even if you were only using Ubuntu.
[22:35] <kz6090> basix: banshee is cool
[22:35] <roguer3x> yo..
[22:35] <roguer3x> possible to get some help here?
[22:35] <SteelPangolin> basix-: XBMC. Not just for cracked Xbox 1 systems any more.
[22:35] <basix-> banshee media player?
[22:35] <basix-> thx
[22:35] <Administrador> ikonia, in 9.04 connect to internet automatically, In another machine with the same hardware I've upgraded from 9.04 to 10.04 and I did not have problems
[22:35] <kz6090> yes, banshee. yw
[22:35] <cozziemoto> erUSUL,   ok  well the reboot should have worked  but i will check other things as well./... it is not super important right now but will be later so  if I get stuck again I will ask again :)
[22:35] <roguer3x> yo...possible to get some help here?
[22:35] <suprengr> ikonia: i was thinking of Administrador
[22:35] <prusik> Jordan_U, okey, I do not know how this media center worked - wasn't loadable via boot manager, but yeah, sorry for the false information...
[22:36] <erUSUL> cozziemoto: check the groups you are in
[22:36] <erUSUL> cozziemoto: run ┬½ id ┬╗ on a terminal
[22:36] <ikonia> suprengr: ahhh, cool, now it makes sense, thank you, the bug number would be helpful
[22:36] <ikonia> suprengr: I thought you where asking me for help with it
[22:36] <jonathan_> some theme I installed changed the login sound to some annoying violin thing.  How can I change it back or remove it altogether?
[22:36] <uLinux> does somebody know why I hear a glitch when starting ALSA sound??
[22:37] <Jordan_U> prusik: What happened between when it was working and now?
[22:37] <khalidmian> jiohdi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/515248/
[22:37] <mhl> Is there any way to execute a script whenever I put my laptop to sleep?
[22:37] <LongBow> Hello I have a question. My laptop doesn't want to start on 10.4. I am now running the laptop from the live cd for 10.10. Can I update the 10.4 or do I need a fresh install?
[22:37] <suprengr> ikonia: #492990 [under suprengr on llaunchpad ;)   ]
[22:37] <cozziemoto> erUSUL,  yeah that says i am on audio
[22:37] <erUSUL> :S
[22:37] <ikonia> suprengr: nice, thank you
[22:37] <dwarder> erUSUL: what does this smile means :S ?
[22:37] <roguer3x> meh, nvm, I'll go ask someone on a linux distro who actually can help..
[22:37] <dwarder> mean*
[22:38] <Jeruvy> LongBow: given the 10.04 is problematic, I'd do a fresh install.
[22:38] <bluefrog> LongBow, are your / and /home on separate partitions?
[22:38] <jiohdi> khalidmian: everything looks normal, but I am not expert
[22:38] <suprengr> ikonia: no probs, glad to help
[22:38] <LongBow> Jeruvy: let me check
[22:38] <prusik> Jordan_U, I think not to have done special beside surfing and skyping anything this ev'ning it happened - but for example it could have been a kernel update? or not shutting down correctly?
[22:38] <kermit> re rsync, why would i ever not use --append --append-verify?
[22:38] <LuisCarlos> Need help to install 10.10 Netbook version. When I try to install, it does not anything at all.
[22:39] <cryptodira> what component of ubuntu 10.04 / 64 bit, is causing the death of the keyboard backlight at the splash page?
[22:39] <hblount> Hi.I am installing lubuntu from cd on my old laptop. Right now it is a black screen that says loading...like 15 min like this.is this normal?
[22:39] <aerosolapple> does anyone know if it is possible to use a regular wireless adapter to act as a reciever for a wireless xbox 360 controller
[22:39] <khalidmian> jiohdi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/515249/
[22:39] <ikonia> hblount: no - it's not normal
[22:39] <kurt__> No, it's not.
[22:39] <Jordan_U> prusik: There's no way a kernel update or bad shutdown could have caused those changes to the partition table.
[22:39] <SteelPangolin> cryptodira: my guess would be that is where the OS ACPI takes over from BIOS or EFI ACPI
[22:39] <SharpTeeth> anyone, please say SharpTeeth so that i see if that line gets highlighted (just for test actually)
[22:40] <jonathan_> yo is it possible to run nautilus in the background at all times?  This is what OS X does with finder, and it makes for a much more responsive experience, a the expense of some memory
[22:40] <hblount> Ikonia: it shoul show menu soon after boot?
[22:40] <aerosolapple>  kurt__: No to me?
[22:40] <SteelPangolin> cryptodira: you may need some ACPI helper package specific to your machine
[22:40] <ikonia> hblount: yes
[22:40] <jiohdi> khalidmian: sorry, you have reached the limits of my understandings
[22:40] <hblount> Ikonia: k thanks
[22:40] <khalidmian> jiohdi: ty
[22:40] <cryptodira> SteelPngolin:  at last, a starting point,,,,, thank you.
[22:40] <prusik> Jordan_U, this configuration could never have worked? mhm - I really don't think that I did something special there
[22:40] <LongBow> Jeruvy: I don't think so. I remember I only made a swap drive and another. I can't remember what it was. I am not so experienced with Linux.
[22:41] <jiohdi> khalidmian: I am still a linux newbee myself... only using it since 9.4
[22:41] <Jordan_U> prusik: There is no way that you could have booted linux with that partition table.
[22:41] <Jeruvy> LongBow: then do a fresh install
[22:41] <kz6090> Jeruvy, how large should the / partition be anyway? Is 10GB enough for a home install?
[22:42] <khalidmian> http://paste.ubuntu.com/515250/ anyone help and asisst me with this please?
[22:42] <cryptodira> SteelPangolin: toshiba satellite series, all amd components with 64 bit ubuntu 10.04.... suggestions as to an appropriate package?
[22:42] <Dulak> kz6090: go 30g if you can afford it, then the rest on /home
[22:42] <LongBow> Jeruvy: Ok, thank you. I will start on that tomorrow. You have any advice on the partitioning?
[22:42] <SharpTeeth> anyone, please say SharpTeeth so that i see if that line gets highlighted (just for test actually)
[22:42] <prusik> Jordan_U, is it possible, that it happened while I tried to get into system recovery console of windows installer?
[22:42] <kz6090> ah, thanks
[22:42] <kz6090> i used 10gb & it's 58% full.
[22:42] <erUSUL> SharpTeeth: wasssup!!
[22:42] <Jeruvy> kz6090: 10gb should be enough, but as for /home, it can use as much space as you require.
[22:42] <SharpTeeth> it works!
[22:43] <SharpTeeth> thank you
[22:43] <prusik> Jordan_U, (as I was told to repair the ntfs system)
[22:43] <kz6090> Dulak, Jeruvy, thx. i was worried / may fill up.
[22:43] <ilovefairuz> SharpTeeth: you could delete /usr/bin/python and make one as link to your desired version
[22:43] <twinkie_addict> khalidmian,  do what it says run nvidia-xconfig
[22:43] <khalidmian> twinkie_addict: newbie pls guide
[22:43] <Administrador> superengr, is my problem a bug?
[22:43] <SharpTeeth> ilovefairuz: like how exactly?
[22:43] <trism> SharpTeeth: it is probably not a good idea to change the default version, it will likely break things (software-center, various configuration dialogs, etc)
[22:43] <LongBow> Jeruvy: I understand about 10GB for / and the rest for /home? How large should the swap be?
[22:44] <Jeruvy> LongBow: I prefer to manually partition, with a fresh install it can be a good way to familiarize yourself with the process, the installer will simply use the whole disk
[22:44] <tmkdesigner> Hello, i'd really appriciate some help with my keyboardlayout settings
[22:44] <twinkie_addict> open a terminal and type it
[22:44] <Jeruvy> LongBow: I'd not make it more than 2x memory. If you have a lot of ram (>4GB) you could even make it smaller
[22:44] <SteelPangolin> kz6090: for reference, i've got a 10.04 Netbook install with a bunch of Python dev packages installed, 3.5 GB
[22:44] <twinkie_addict> then restart x
[22:45] <ilovefairuz> SharpTeeth: sudo rm /usr/bin/python; sudo ln /usr/bin/python2.7 /usr/bin/python  # seems a hard link is needed
[22:45] <SharpTeeth> trism: i am aware of that and i am willing to accept the responsability... besides I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 in a VM
[22:45] <twinkie_addict> with sudo service gdm stop i believe
[22:45] <kz6090> SteelPangolin, ok good. i have no need of dev files, so i should be okay.
[22:45] <twinkie_addict> after that type startx
[22:45] <Jordan_U> prusik: Yes, though I can't see how any tool would have allowed that partition table to be created. It's not even a valid partition table, with overlapping partitions, logical partitions that aren't within their extended partition, and partitions ending past the last block of the drive.
[22:46] <LongBow> Jeruvy: I have an old laptop. I think it has 512MB to 1GB of RAM. I know that windows wants 1,5x RAM for swap. So 1.5 GB should be enough for swap?
[22:46] <SharpTeeth> ilovefairuz: thank you. i will do that
[22:46] <g00se> Just did fresh install of Win 7, then meerkat, but the box simply boots straight into Windows. Here's what the Win partition looks like - what gives? http://paste.ubuntu.com/515258/
[22:46] <Jordan_U> prusik: Maybe a partitioning tool was interrupted while it was writing, or maybe the hard drive is bad.
[22:46] <aerosolapple> I have a question about unistalling wine, i want to uninstall it completely because i think i messed up by running it as sudo
[22:46] <aerosolapple> so if i use sudo apt-get remove --purge wine*
[22:46] <prusik> Jordan_U, what is the best way to backup as many data as possible?
[22:46] <Burmoz> Hi, can someone help me? My Grub is working recursively. I can launch Ubuntu and Memtest without problem, but when I try to boot Windows 7 it just launches Grub again..
[22:47] <Sivarts> Hi guys I am trying to connect my LCD TV to my ubuntu box via an DVI -> HDMI cable. I have an Nvidia video card, it detects the TV as TV-0 but won't let me set resolution above 1024x768 and nothing shows up on the TV no matter what resolution -- just says "No Signal" I have tried using modelines etc. any tips?
[22:47] <aerosolapple> will that remove all the packages that are wine related?
[22:47] <aerosolapple> and the .conf files
[22:47] <SteelPangolin> aerosolapple: if apt-get supports wildcards, you'll have to wrap the wine* bit in doublequotes
[22:47] <Jordan_U> Burmoz: You accidentally installed grub to your windows partition.
[22:47] <SteelPangolin> aerosolapple: otherwise the shell will try to expand it
[22:47] <Administrador> ikonia, This does mean something? : No DHCPOFFERS received. No working leases in persistent database - sleeping.
[22:47] <Burmoz> Jordan: so how do I fix that?
[22:47] <ikonia> Administrador: it means your network is not serving dhcp
[22:47] <ilovefairuz> aerosolapple: yes it should work, and read http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-ddc6f242056eb1a4fe566c9434d15fd8b64606aa
[22:48] <SharpTeeth> ilovefairuz: what about dependencies?
[22:48] <aerosolapple>  SteelPangolin: ahh makes sense. im having a gui issue everytime i run SC2 i cant even login to battle.net
[22:48] <jay_> i have my home folder from 10. on a usb drive
[22:48] <ikonia> Administrador: open your network configuration tool and look at what your default gateway and dns servers are
[22:48] <jay_> whoops
[22:48] <SharpTeeth> ilovefairuz: what about dependencies if I just remove the directory python  ?
[22:48] <chris535> I just set my grub's graphics too high and plymouth can't boot. I'm hoping to avoid chrooting from a live cd for the fix.  Can Plymouth be forced into a 'text mode' during boot?
[22:48] <ilovefairuz> SharpTeeth: what directory?  /usr/bin/python is NOT a directory
[22:48] <SteelPangolin> aerosolapple: i'm surprised you can run SC2 on Wine at all...
[22:49] <SharpTeeth> ilovefairuz: what is it then?
[22:49] <Crusader888> ZOMG
[22:49] <jay_> home folder from 10.04 on a usb drive, uppgrade to 10.10 is buggered. Can I download 10.10 and install from a disk and use the 10.04 home folder?
[22:49] <tehgeekmeister> i just installed postgresql 8.4 on maverick meerkat and it didn't create the postgres user it should've, so i can't configure it (barring creating the user myself, which i'm not sure how to do correctly); what do i do?
[22:49] <ilovefairuz> SharpTeeth: type: file /usr/bin/python
[22:49] <Jordan_U> prusik: First try to use testdisk to detect what filesystems are actually on the disk and create a valid partition table. If the partition table is your only problem then you should be able to mount the partitions at that point and just copy the data over. If not, then you'll need to use photorec (which is in the same project as testdisk) to try to recover files.
[22:49] <khalidmian> i give up on ubuntu
[22:50] <kz6090> jay_ you can keep the home partition is that's what you mean.
[22:50] <erUSUL> khalidmian: farewell then
[22:50] <aerosolapple>  SteelPangolin;http://jeffhoogland.blogspot.com/2010/07/howto-starcraft-2-on-linux-with-wine.html
[22:50] <twinkie_addict> khalidmian,  why
[22:50] <khalidmian> btw is there such a thing as remote assistance in ubuntu
[22:50] <kz6090> else back up the home folder
[22:50] <Jeruvy> jay_: yes, do the fresh install, then copy over your /home folder.
[22:50] <lapitas> hello, iam using a xp connected to a dns bind server (ubuntu) and i only can connect to the internal address and not internet
[22:50] <khalidmian> twinkie_addict: i cant seem to run ubuntu other then in failsafe x
[22:50] <lapitas> some one can help me?
[22:50] <aerosolapple>  i get to the login screen but my pixels are messed up pretty well
[22:50] <codydbgt> ok iv got a problem
[22:50] <prusik> Jordan_U, this one: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk ?
[22:50] <SteelPangolin> aerosolapple: i heard from a guy in a postion to know that the SC2 non-game GUI is actually implemented in embedded Flash
[22:50] <ikonia> lapitas: check your bind access list and views config, as well as your XP routing
[22:50] <Jordan_U> Burmoz: First, we need to fix your grub-pc package configuration, then restore the windows bootloader.
[22:50] <codydbgt> win 7 isnt showing up in grub
[22:50] <jay_> well, 10.10, which is all I have now, is screwy. I'm thinking I will have to reinstall 10.04 clean and put my old home folder in, correct?
[22:51] <codydbgt> i cant figure out how to fix
[22:51] <LongBow> I want to re├»nstal Ubuntu. Is 10GB /, 1.5 GB swap and the rest /home enough
[22:51] <ilovefairuz> lapitas: what's the output of: ping 8.8.8.8
[22:51] <codydbgt> this /bootmgr /boot/bcd
[22:51] <lanparty> hi everyone my sound card keep changing every time i boot can anyone tell me how to set it to default
[22:51] <Jordan_U> prusik: Yes. It is available in the Ubuntu repositories and can be installed in the liveCD environment.
[22:51] <twinkie_addict> you dont have a nvidia driver installed do this in termenal rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[22:51] <aerosolapple>  SteelPangolin: im still fairly new so i have no idea what that actually encompasses, i know just enough to get my self in trouble so far
[22:51] <twinkie_addict> then restart
[22:52] <Jordan_U> Burmoz: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[22:52] <ilovefairuz> !who | twinkie_addict
[22:52] <lapitas> ilovefairuz its ok! it can connect
[22:52] <Burmoz> 10.10
[22:52] <twinkie_addict> sorry
[22:52] <ilovefairuz> lapitas: ok next, what's the output of: dig google.com @8.8.8.8
[22:53] <khalidmian> ugggggggggggh why is it so difficult to configure video drivers and video issues in ubuntu
[22:53] <ilovefairuz> !paste | lapitas
[22:53] <twinkie_addict> khalidmian,  do this in termenal rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[22:53] <Jeruvy> LongBow: that would be fine.
[22:53] <twinkie_addict> then restart
[22:53] <lapitas> ilovefairuz do i do that in xp or ubuntu?
[22:53] <antIP> lanparty: What exactly do you mean? I probably wont be able to help you but I'm interested to know what you mean by "my sound card keeps changing"
[22:53] <lapitas> ilovefairuz in xp dig is not reconized
[22:53] <LongBow> Thank you Jeruvy :)
[22:53] <Jeruvy> LongBow: your welcome.
[22:53] <SteelPangolin> aerosolapple: means Wine's got to run an embedded Windows build of Flash as well as the DirectX game graphics
[22:53] <SteelPangolin> aerosolapple: that's likely to be problematic
[22:54] <antIP> khaldimian: What video card are you using?
[22:54] <twinkie_addict> khalidmian,  what nvidia card do you have ?
[22:54] <khalidmian> internal laptop gm200 something like that
[22:54] <aerosolapple>  SteelPangolin:hmmm that makes sense now, ive seen it done via video but havent got to play personally yet in ubuntu. should i get flash and install it under wine?
[22:55] <lapitas> ilovefairuz in ubuntu it works ok
[22:55] <SteelPangolin> aerosolapple: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=20882 here's the Wine compat profile, it's two SC2 patch versions out of date but it does suggest some Wine config tweaks

[22:55] <twinkie_addict> khalidmian,  are back in regular x
[22:55] <aerosolapple>  SteelPangolin: Thank you so much ill tear through the links you gave me
[22:55] <SteelPangolin> aerosolapple: that probably won't help
[22:55] <Administrador> ikonia, I'm looking in router so DHCP does not  have data, hostname:empty,IP Adress:empty, all empty....but I have a default gateway and dns server...Can I put it here, is not risk?
[22:55] <twinkie_addict> are you
[22:56] <khalidmian> twinkie_addict: thats all greek to me
[22:56] <lanparty> antIP have audigy and usb easycall  and every time i boot up it,s set to easycall i want to set audigy as default
[22:56] <twinkie_addict> khalidmian,  can you see you desktop
[22:56] <tehgeekmeister> oh, perhaps the postgres user wasn't created because i neglected to install postgresql.  that would do it.
[22:56] <khalidmian> i guess i shall reinstall ubuntu and run it under failsafe x forever
[22:56] <coz_> erUSUL,   interesting...this is cozziemoto .. on the other machine  it was an upgrade from lucid to karmic and those settings worked well however.  on this clean install  it does not   and I used the same settings I had origianlly on that other machine
[22:56] <etherealite> How can i force aptitude to ignore a package with broken deps?
[22:57] <coz_> erUSUL,   also I tried setting user to audio group  apparenlty   not well
[22:57] <SteelPangolin> aerosolapple: also, you will need a monster machine to run SC2, especially with the Wine overhead. You have a newish graphics card with accelerated Linux drivers, yes?
[22:57] <batbout> hi
[22:57] <khalidmian> twinkie_addict: can i see what
[22:57] <Burmoz> Jordan_U, I use 10.10, I just installed it a few hours ago
[22:57] <aerosolapple> yeah im usin a amd hd 5xxx series card
[22:57] <erUSUL> coz_: :/ dunno; the settings are enforced via pam maybe tyou have tweaked conf in the upgraded system ? or use a weird auth system?
[22:57] <batbout> what does it mean usepam yes in the sshd_config file ?
[22:58] <coz_> erUSUL,  I dont think so ... but I will check again just to be sure
[22:58] <SteelPangolin> aerosolapple: yeah that'll do it.
[22:58] <coz_> erUSUL,  what is a quick way to add user to audio group?
[22:58] <twinkie_addict> khalidmian, did you do in a terminal rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[22:58] <aerosolapple>  awesome thanks ahain
[22:58] <aerosolapple> again*
[22:58] <erUSUL> coz_: sudo adduser $USER audio
[22:58] <twinkie_addict> khalidmian, if you did reboot youl be aout of failsafe
[22:58] <Jordan_U> Burmoz: Ok, then you shouldn't actually need to modify grub-pc package configuration. Just follow this guide to restore the windows PBR: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/bootinfoscript/index.php?title=Boot_Problems:Boot_Sector
[22:58] <antIP> lanparty: I hate to say I can't provide much help, but it's true. Here is a similar post on linuxquestions.org http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/gentoo-87/set-default-sound-card-796566/
[22:58] <Administrador> ikonia, But the way I ve run Xubuntu 10.10 and it cannot conect to internet like ubuntu 10.04.1
[22:58] <prusik> Jordan_U, what's the exact name of the package? sudo apt-get install testdisk tells me that "testdisk" can't be found
[22:59] <coz_> erUSUL,  ok thanks
[22:59] <antIP> lanparty: I'm sorry, I thought that was for ubuntu. It's not, my bad.
[22:59] <ilovefairuz> lapitas: on the ubuntu machine try: dig google.com @127.0.0.1
[22:59] <Burmoz> Jordan_U: Thanks, I will try that
[22:59] <khalidmian> twinkie_addict: when im out of failsafe all i get is the pink splash screen
[22:59] <Jordan_U> prusik: You have to enable universe (System > Administration > Software Sources).

[23:14] <ilovefairuz> pr0ph3t: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile as you can see it's not a trivial task to you better file a bug report and wait for a kernel update
[23:14] <andai> How do i stop ubuntu from managing my iPod (mounting & opening music player)?

[23:16] <SteelPangolin> pr0ph3t: have you ever built a kernel before? It's not that bad under Ubuntu unless you're compiling on an Atom or something
[23:16] <andai> ilovefauruz: this affects all drives or just ones with audio/video?
[23:16] <andai> ilovefairuz*
[23:17] <erUSUL> andai: look in nautilus preferences
[23:17] <ilovefairuz> andai: affects all removable drives, but you could check system > preferences > file management > media
[23:17] <Bawn> how do i upgrade to 10.10
[23:17] <h8train> andai: system" > "preferences" > "removable drives and media" to stop automount
[23:17] <pr0ph3t> SteelPangolin, I have done it several times in the past with slackware and whatever mandriva was called before, is it any different now?
[23:17] <ilovefairuz> !upgrade | Bawn
[23:17] <antIP> techtronic: Not really. So you found that config file eh? I would search google for more on editing that config file. I'm sorry I don't know how to edit it myself.
[23:18] <pr0ph3t> SteelPangolin, I have to say though every time I did it something didnt work as before :P
[23:18] <andai> h8train; ilovefairuz: I have neither of those menu options. Upgrade? :P
[23:18] <techtronic> what config file

[23:18] <ilovefairuz> andai: you don't have a system > preferences menu ?
[23:19] <antIP> lanparty: So you found that config file? I would try finding some more info about editing it online.
[23:19] <techtronic> antIP: or john the ripper
[23:19] <ilovefairuz> andai: what ubuntu version are you running?
[23:19] <andai> ilovefairuz: no file management suboption
[23:19] <ilovefairuz> andai: open your home directory, then Edit > Preferences
[23:19] <SteelPangolin> pr0ph3t: nah, pretty much the same, except a little more integrated with Ubuntu's package system. IIRC it goes like, install a package with the kernel source, unpack it, patch it, run make menuconfig or whatever, compile, then run an Ubuntu specific script to bundle the compiled kernel, initrd, etc. as a package, then install the package
[23:20] <Bawn> i have the lts release, how do i update that to 10.10

[23:21] <kira_> hi guys, today i have problem with.. printers - when i connect my printers->ubuntu searching for drivers and said that there are no drivers ;/ what to do now?
[23:21] <antIP> techtronic: I understand. I need to get around to doing that myself.
[23:21] <pr0ph3t> SteelPangolin, one thing I remember though, it used to take a long time, I was doing it with a pentium III 300Mhz of course
[23:21] <h8train> andai: you dont have a "removable drives and media" under preferences?
[23:22] <techtronic> antIP: they all behave the same way,
[23:22] <antIP> lanparty: Maybe someone else can help you. keep poking around and asking here and there. Remember that the ubuntu forums are great for this sort of thing.
[23:22] <Some_Person> ilovefairuz: http://paste.ubuntu.com/515271/
[23:22] <SteelPangolin> pr0ph3t: it's plenty fast on a Core2
[23:23] <Bawn> thanks people
[23:23] <SteelPangolin> pr0ph3t: i used to have to build most of the FreeBSD kernel and all of the userland apps about once a month on a Via C3 @ 933MHz and that only took four hours - the Linux kernel is much smaller
[23:23] <andai> all solved, thanks
[23:23] <ilovefairuz> Some_Person: buggy driver
[23:24] <Some_Person> ilovefairuz: Well, what can I do about it?
[23:24] <Blue1> will 10.10 ever support legacy nvidia drivers, like 10.04 did?
[23:24] <kira_> can someone halp with installing printers (when ubuntu said that he cant find driver )
[23:24] <antIP> techtronic - Sorry I can't help. Above my pay grade. It's an interesting issue though. I'd be interested in figuring it out myself.
[23:25] <techtronic> antIP: ok thanks anyway - best of luck with your paygrade
[23:25] <basix-> is there an install package for XBMC?
[23:25] <SteelPangolin> basix-: there is for Lucid, i think
[23:26] <basix-> gr
[23:26] <SteelPangolin> basix-: you might have to add Universe or Multiverse or some PPA
[23:26] <basix-> not 10.10? :(
[23:26] <basix-> i dunno how to
[23:26] <basix-> im trying to follow instructions
[23:26] <basix-> and i just give up
[23:26] <SteelPangolin> basix-: is that Maverick? The XBMC web site mentioned that they don't have a Maverick package yet
[23:26] <antIP> techtronic: Haha.
[23:26] <basix-> I believe so
[23:27] <kira_> where shuld  i ask or who - about printers drivers? o.o
[23:27] <SteelPangolin> basix-: you could try booting from their LiveCD version to see if it's what you're looking for before trying to build it yourself or something
[23:27] <Dulak> basix-: 10.04 if you want mythtv with xbmc frontend
[23:27] <Guest90525> hello, my user is "idk", just like i want it. But the name says "Administrator". how do i change my name? =) thanks
[23:28] <basix-> SteelPangolin, it's just an app right?
[23:28] <trism> techtronic: there are probably easier ways but: gnome-terminal -x bash -c 'command; read -p "Press enter to continue"'; will generally work, replacing command with the command you want to run
[23:28] <SteelPangolin> basix-: it's pretty heavyweight. It's an app, yes, and a whole bunch of plugins, support libs, AV codecs...
[23:29] <basix-> hehe
[23:29] <basix-> i noticed i already downloaded about 15 mins worth of plugins/etc
[23:29] <SteelPangolin> basix-: even a customized dynamic linker/loader, although I don't think the non-Xbox versions need it any more
[23:29] <antIP> techtronic: Just out of curiosity, have you tried using Shortcut Commands to start the programs?
[23:30] <Guest90525> how do i change short-name on my user? thanks
[23:30] <techtronic> antIP:  no
[23:30] <oryxtec> guys i m trying to install 1 application.... but i getting this error please can you check http://pastebin.com/fhe11WBv
[23:30] <basix-> SteelPangolin, i want a media center to connect to my main tv and be able to carry my entire library of dvd's and bd on a few hard drives
[23:30] <Some_Person> These frequent crashes are driving me nuts
[23:31] <basix-> xbmc is capable of it right?
[23:31] <SteelPangolin> basix-: yeah, i have a similar setup
[23:31] <Dulak> basix-: with a tvtuner and dvr or without?
[23:31] <techtronic> trism: ok but it still closes, when you press anything, i want it to lauch, show me options and then just wait for a new command, see what im getting at or am i talking jibberish
[23:31] <antIP> techtronic: I use ubuntutweak and they have an easy setup for Shortcut Commands. That might be even faster. Something like Shift + Alt + J starts Jack the Ripper.
[23:31] <basix-> Dulak, w/ out for now
[23:32] <basix-> Dulak, just want my entire movie collection available via media center on the big screen
[23:32] <Dulak> basix-: then just xbmc would be fine for that
[23:32] <ju> c
[23:32] <trism> techtronic: so replace the read command with bash
[23:32] <antIP> techtronic: of course, then you have to memorize your shortcuts...
[23:32] <basix-> k
[23:33] <oryxtec> guys any help on my issue plzzzz :D
[23:33] <oryxtec> http://pastebin.com/fhe11WBv
[23:33] <antIP> techtronics: you could also use Keyboard Shotcuts under System > Preferences to set those (I think)
[23:33] <antIP> techtronics: I use gnome-do for almost everything.
[23:34] <techtronic> brb, crashed my box for some reason,
[23:34] <etheretic3> Is there a program which compares the contents of several terabyte harddisks making duplicate and triplicate files known? Preferably gui.
[23:34] <prusik> Jordan_U, I just decided to first make an image of the hdd with dd_rescue - i hope this works out...
[23:34] <matthewg42> hi there.  Does anyone know if there is an existing command line tool to wait until a named process is complete and will then terminal.  I wrote a perl script to do this, but I was wondering if there was already a tool.  example usage:  pwait wget && vlc new.avi
[23:35] <ilovefairuz> Some_Person: are you sure you're running metacity and not compiz? pgrep metacity
[23:35] <SteelPangolin> basix-: http://mirrors.xbmc.org/releases/live/ if you want to easily evaluate it
[23:35] <ddilinger> matthewg42: something with a while statement,  while pidof something;do true;done maybee
[23:35] <basix-> ok, thanks SteelPangolin
[23:35] <SteelPangolin> basix-: those should have drivers for most of the hardware XBMC can talk to
[23:35] <ddilinger> matthewg42: dont use that code directly though, a small sleep is in order, maybee some redirection to cleanup pidof output, but the idea should work
[23:36] <erUSUL> etheretic3: fdupes ? i think there is a gui for it
[23:36] <matthewg42> ddlinger:  thanks.  Yeah I've done stuff like this many times in shell scripts - was just wondering if anyone else ever thought to make a tool for it to abbreviate their scripting.
[23:37] <ddilinger> matthewg42: shrug, could make it a shell function and have it imported
[23:38] <techtronic> trism: sorry can you reapeat your last comment
[23:39] <ddilinger> matthewg42: but generally, no i havn't heard of a standalone tool that does it.  Couldn't be that hard to strip down the pidof code and release a new tool though :)
[23:39] <etheretic3> erUSUL: may be - just synaptic'ed it. looks like cli, but i'll install and see.
[23:39] <trism> techtronic: instead try: gnome-terminal -x bash -c 'command; bash'; might be what you are looking for

[23:40] <erUSUL> etheretic3: http://www.pixelbeat.org/fslint/
[23:41] <matthewg42> ddilinger: well it's certainly easy to wrap it up in a tiny perl script.  The script I wrote uses pgrep and grabs all pids for a given name, and wait for them to terminate.  I should add options to filter bu UID and so on.

[23:41] <etheretic3> erUSUL: have 6 drives w 6tb data on them. haven't bee too careful w backup so there are triplicates.
[23:41] <matthewg42> ddilinger: I also wrote a much more flexiable fwait which watches files.  Checks for 0 size or non-existence or existence or permission change (what it waits for depends on command  line options).  I find it useful.
[23:42] <techtronic> trism: WORKS BRILLIANTLY! - THANKS :-D

[23:42] <Emin3nt> Hi Linux Lovers
[23:42] <matthewg42> ddilinger: thanks for the response - good to know there isn't a widely known existing command to do what I implemented.
[23:42] <ddilinger> matthewg42: i wonder if you could just use inotify on the /proc/pid directories, get notified as they delete themselves
[23:42] <matthewg42> oooh, inotify.
[23:42] <matthewg42> Is inotify linux only?
[23:43] <B4CkTr4CkEr> back
[23:43] <techtronic> antIP: did you see trism's solution?
[23:43] <B4CkTr4CkEr> who help me ?
[23:43] <SteelPangolin> with Netbook Remix 10's window manager, is there a way to maximize a window so that it hides everything else including the app switcher/systray bar at the top?
[23:43] <ddilinger> matthewg42: i think so
[23:43] <antIP> techtronic: No I didn't
[23:43] <ilovefairuz> oryxtec: it's an encoded file, check http://eaccelerator.net/
[23:43] <ddilinger> matthewg42: its not posix, thats for sure :)
[23:43] <matthewg42> ddilinger: ah, there's the rub - I want my script to be portable to solaris and hpux and bsd.
[23:43] <antIP> techtronic: What was it?
[23:43] <techtronic> antIP: gnome-terminal -x bash -c 'command; bash';
[23:43] <ddilinger> matthewg42: probably not going to work for ya then :)
[23:44] <techtronic> antIP: again kudos belongs to trism
[23:44] <Administrador> Estuve viendo y al parecer la configuraci├│n de conexi├│n a internet de windows xp es est├Ītica.He entrado al router y en la configuraci├│ avanzada, en LAN Setup, hay una configuraci├│n con los datos(ip,subnet mask,etc) de XP.Abajo aparece una opci├│n:Configure the second IP Address and Subnet Mask for LAN interface...Sera que debo cronfigurar otra direccion IP para Ubuntu?. Ubuntu esta en la misma PC, en otra partici├│n, a la par de XP.
[23:44] <B4CkTr4CkEr> is there a server special for bacjtrack users ?
[23:44] <matthewg42> ddilinger: but it's a very tempting thing to make a super-efficient / more flexiable version for linux...  :D
[23:44] <antIP> techtronic: Right on.
[23:44] <antIP> trism: thanks
[23:44] <Administrador> ups!.

[23:45] <natesm> hi, I'm trying to figure out debian packaging and PPAs. I made a lucid source package ("lucid" in the changelog file) and a maverick one, but the maverick one is being rejected by launchpad because it already exists (the lucid one of course). I'm clearly doing it wrong - any help? thanks.
[23:45] <oryxtec> plz help

[23:55] <murielgodoi> My Audacity has no menu bar on Ubuntu 10.10. Has anyone faced that?
[23:57] <Nutub> xD thanks i have other question... what i need to install x86 or x64? i have a amd athlon x2
[23:57] <histo> Nutub: do you have a 64bit or 32bit cpu?
[23:57] <Dulak> Nutub: how much ram you have?
[23:58] <Nutub> i have 2gb
[23:58] <histo> Nutub: is the machine in windows now?
[23:58] <Spofer> Hi all, can i update to 10.10 without losing all my data?
[23:58] <histo> !upgrade > Spofer
[23:58] <Nutub> xD my instalation failed so i have nothing
[23:58] <Dulak> Nutub: it doesn't matter which you go with then, 64 bit only makes a difference when you get to 4g ram
[23:58] <Nutub> only this live ubuntu
[23:59] <basix-> what's a good substitute for newsbin pro on ubuntu?
[23:59] <histo> Dulak: thats not true
[23:59] <pc-central> http://pc-central.zymichost.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=25
[23:59] <histo> Nutub: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[23:59] <histo> Nutub: look at the cflush size
[23:59] <bwRavencl> Nutub with 2gb you can just stick to x86, x64 would not have any advantages in my opinion
[23:59] <carandraug> hi! I've installed the netbook edition of 10.10. The new interface looks cool but creates a problem when I use Gnome Do. <Super> + space no longer works because pressing <super> shows up the shortcuts for the side panel applications
