Steven_Krebsnemo229 how slow?00:00
nemo229bytes slow00:00
Steven_Krebswhat's your wireless network card?00:00
nemo229i'm using wired conn atm00:00
Dekker3DSteven_Krebs: That's a pity. It makes chatting on Linux or any Linux-based apps a chore.00:00
nemo229i have acer aspire one00:00
basix-ahh look i found the problem, "It is not possible to create Ubuntu 10.04 USB disks from the Startup Disk Creator in Ubuntu 10.10 due to a backwards incompatibility in the syslinux program."00:00
Steven_Krebsactually as my native language doesn't use ^ or ` on any letter I'm fine with the no dead version00:01
thevishynemo229, is that a netbook ?00:01
nemo229yes00:01
castSteven_Krebs: till you have to xor!00:01
nemo229my wired connection works fine but my wireless is slow00:01
thevishynemo229, just curious how is the performance of acer aspire one , i bought a second hand one its with my bro right now00:01
thevishynemo229, is the strength showing good ?00:02
nemo229works fine with 1gb ram00:02
Steven_Krebsyeah. until then00:02
nemo229yea00:02
Steven_KrebsI'm wondering if someone did a custom keyboard layout for that00:02
thevishydid you do a dsl speed test or something ?00:02
nemo229no00:02
makudoes anyone in here know how to load minecraft on ubuntu? and get it running, I alreasdy have it downloaded...00:02
Steven_Krebsbut I think the dbus system is meant to take care of that00:02
deac0nis this the correct format for xset to turn my monitor off after 10 mins of no use  "xset dpms [0 [ 0 [10]]]"00:02
Tommonemo229: I have an Aspire 5551 - dunno if it is same chipset but am using Broadcom Proprietary STA driver... can you try this (or, are you willing to?).00:03

sms_Aha - mimeapps.list: inode/directory=totem.desktop; -> inode/directory=nautilus-folder-handler.desktop; But how did it get changed in the first place..00:03
bowserhey, nice spam protection! :)00:03
Steven_Krebsnemo229 If I d have to put my finger on it I would say it's a driver issue yeah00:03
nemo229yes i'm willing to00:03
bowserI was curious - is there any music player, preferably with music library, that would support samba shares?00:04
nemo229this is my first time using ubuntu o.o00:04
Dekker3DHmm. About that bug I mentioned: A friend tried the same thing and he just saw the message about not accepting capitals in usernames, right besides the input box. I distinctly remember seeing nothing there, not even a checkmark or comment.00:04
Tommonemo229: just go System > Administration > Hardware Drivers and see if there is an option to try the alternative (Prop) driver.  If it doesn't work out you can easily de-activate it.00:05
Dekker3DSo it's at best a system specific thing, or one time event. I should send my specs with it, so it should happen via ubuntu-bug, but that's giving me an error about not being connected00:05
Steven_Krebsbrowser rhythmbox should do that00:05
Steven_Krebsbowser00:05
nemo229how do i find system :x00:05
Blaine_I can't get to the grub menu by tapping ESC, and running an fsck on a livecd is saying my disk is in use. How can I run an fsck with a livecd?00:06
Dekker3DAh. Problem solved, I needed to use sudo00:06
Tommonemo229: Usually top left of screen, there is the Ubuntu logo, Applications, Places then System.  May be next to your Firefox icon on a standard install.00:06
lahwranwhere is the "hard drive" icon stored? the one that's used on the desktop filesystem icons00:07

pankaj_sharmahow can i login as root?00:07
basix-i cannot install it?00:07
shcherbaknemo229: where to start?00:08
lahwran!root | pankaj_sharma00:08
ubottupankaj_sharma: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo00:08
lahwranSteven_Krebs: well, yeah, I would figure; I should have been more specific and said that I can't find it in /usr/share/icons00:08
pankaj_sharma!sudo00:08
ubottusudo is a command to run command-line programs with  superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli ) . Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For  graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with  sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo00:08

pankaj_sharma!cli00:08
ubottuThe linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal or type in it: man intro00:08
cheakoHello, there is a selection of ~20 screen savers I'd like to put onto random.  Any one know how?00:09

Tommonemo229: 'Places' is next to 'Applications' on the panel - it is not a submenu. Ditto 'System'00:10
OddTodI installed LAMP + wordpress. If i just go the server's ip address i get the basic apache page but when i go to the wordpress folder it acts like it can't handle PHP00:10

cheakoAny one know how to configure what screensavers are *active* for random?00:13
Tommonemo229: so sorry. // You likely will be if on a netbook.  I have looked at it but never used it.  I can't help you with that - have used it briefly.  Maybe you could ask here if anyone else has specific experience with UNR (Ubuntu Netbook Remix).00:13

Blaine_I'm trying to mount my file system on a livecd, and I'm doing `sudo mount -r /dev/sda1 /mnt/disk` and it's hanging. Any ideas?00:23
froggymancousteau, really? Why is it not enabled by default though? On windows it has been for me00:23
cheakomaku: I think it's rather that Java dosen't allow it.00:23
OddTodlahwran: ?00:23
lahwranOddTod:00:24
makudo you know how to run it then? the minecraft website says to run it with java, I know I have java on there.00:24
cousteaufroggyman: well, on linux the mouse middle-click is more used for pasting the select buffer or opening things on a new tab00:24
makuI have downloaded the whole file and everything it just won't start...00:24
Steven_Krebswhich version of java? open java or sun java?00:25
cousteaufroggyman: edit > prefs > last tab > general > use auto scrolling00:25
cheakoBlaine_: What filesystem type?00:25
froggymancousteau, alright. Thanks a bunch!00:25
makuit says java basic...my b/f did that part, I'm trying to figure out which or download sun, b/c it says it needs that version00:25
chmodyou can check the version from terminal with; apt-cache policy java00:25
cousteaufroggyman: only, if you middle-click a link, instead of auto-scroll, it will be opened on a new tab00:26
Blaine_not sure how to check00:26
cheakoBlaine_: You should know if you are trying to mount it, but file -s00:27
Blaine_thanks, brb00:27
cousteauand if you middle-click a text area, the last thing you selected will get pasted (it's a quick way to copy and paste: you select a text and it gets automatically copied on a buffer, then middle-click and it gets pasted)00:27
makuok, where is terminal? super new00:27

switch10_gee0: check the disk for errors01:15
Jordan_UKai696: Do that then. If you're lucky, ddrescue will be able to recover the data from the mbr, and most of the rest of the block on the drive, and you'll be able to just mount the image and read files off it that way. If not, then I would first try rebuilding the mbr (of the image) with testdisk, and if after doing that you still can't mount the filesystem use photorec to recover as many files as possible.01:15

gee0wedwo, i dont even get to the point where i can create a username01:18
Jordan_Ugee0: There is a bug that while the Ubuntu installer correctly prevents you from continuing if you enter a username with capital letters, it does not actually inform you that that is the reason it's not letting you continue.01:18

DiamondciteBobshayd: Where is your box? Just 1 client in a larger LAN?01:45
DiamondciteBobshayd: Or is it the main box in a lan?01:45
cdoublejj_wow even upgrade failed for me it looks like i need to reinstall ubuntu01:45
cdoublejj_guess i'll be back possibly01:45
BobshaydIt's one box in a pretty small network based around the house I'm in and a wireless router.01:45
iflemalindenle it *should*..... *cough* amarok is crap/bloated now *cough*01:46
BobshaydAnd that network is remembered but not actually findable.01:46
GSF1200Scdoublejj_, whats wrong?01:46
DiamondciteBobshayd: So it's wireless trouble and not wired trouble?01:46
GSF1200Scdoublejj_, can you boot Ubuntu?01:46
lindenleiflema: yeah agreed but rhythmbox is ugly and does not do as well with my ipod01:46
BobshaydIt's connected to the router by ethernet.01:46
cdoublejj_odd odd problems updates failed sounds fails and now it crashed during upgrade from 9.10 to 10.04 and the onl.y reason i was trying that was to fix sound s like reinstall is needed for sure01:47
DiamondciteBobshayd: So which is/isn't working?01:47
GSF1200Scdoublejj_, wait01:47
GSF1200Scdoublejj_, are you in the install now?01:47
BobshaydI believe everything outside of my box is working, and it can simply no longer actually connect to anything.01:47
Jordan_Ugee0: Could you pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l" then the output of "dmesg"?01:48
BobshaydSo either a driver or a configuration issue is keeping me from connecting to something, I think.01:48
iflemalindenle i gotta run... the KDE netbook does exist..... somewhere..... cant link ya at themoment sorry.... =)01:48
GSF1200Scdoublejj_, we might be able to finish the upgrade process- if the upgrade was interrupted, we can use dpkg to finish configuring the packages and make sure youre up to date01:48
DiamondciteBobshayd: So this box can connect to the router but not the wireless network? Or wireless network yes, router no?01:48
BobshaydIt's as if my box is totally unplugged but I'm pretty confident that's not what it is. I went down and checked and such.01:48

cdoublejj_no i am at my desktop in 9.10 it has told me there problems during upgrade i left the upgrade un attened to come back to an empty desktop01:49
BobshaydI might be missing something that is obvious, like an unplugged cable.01:49
deac0nany way to config  gnome  to turn off and turn on laptop monitor after no activity and turn on after key stroke of mouse movement01:49
BobshaydThe network should be enabled, but since I only have one monitor between this machine and the one I'm trying to fix, it's a little hard to go back and forth01:49

lindenlexangua: thx, p.s. removing .kde fixed it01:50
DiamondciteOkay.. I have to ask.. check the network port, is the network lighting up atleast?01:50
lindenlexangua: can I apt install kubuntu netbook edition?01:51
DiamondciteBobshayd: The network cable light is controlled by hardware, is there a light on atleast?01:51
BobshaydIt hasn't at all.01:51
xangualindenle: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-netbook01:51
DiamondciteBobshayd: Maybe you can move the cable to another box to make sure the network cable is working?01:51

davidm777Jordan_U: I held down 'shift' while booting to enter GRUB so-as to do some recovery work.  Now when I "sudo shutdown -r now" I am thrown back to the GRUB menu (vs. the box rebooting).01:55
davidm777Jordan_U:  Does that make more sense?01:55
DiamondciteBobshayd: I wonder if you do ifconfig on the other box do you see anything? Is eth0 and wlan enabled? If not check network manager itself.. strange for it to not connect unless it needs DHCP.. does network manager even TRY connecting when a wire is unplugged and then pluggged back in?01:55
Jordan_Ugee0: It depends on how much time you're willing to put into installing Ubuntu, and also why exactly parted crashed. The fact that an assertion failed suggests it may be something odd about / wrong with your disk.01:55

BobshaydOkay, so how do I enable eth0 and wlan? (Diamondcite)02:11
bazhangBobshayd, sudo ifup eth002:11
Jordan_Udavidm777: The reason that the grub menu doesn't timeout is that it has detected a failed boot. So when you rebooted it actually rebooted twice, the first time failed and so the second time the grub menu didn't timeout (to prevent an infinite loop and allow you to choose recovery mode).02:11
bazhangBobshayd, should be wlan002:11

BobshaydRight, I thought maybe I fu- oops, screwed that up. Trying, and reporting back later.02:19
Jordan_Udavidm777: The way that the "detection" works is that before loading the kernel grub writes "recordfail=1" to /boot/grub/grubenv, then during boot /etc/init.d/grub-common clears this flag. Then at the next boot grub checks if recordfail exists in /boot/grub/grubenv, and if it does then that means /etc/init.d/grub-common was never run (usually because there was a boot failure).02:19

obs3rv3rendersbean3k1: Enable IMAP on your gmail settings.02:52
justupgradedAkivaLivecd1, if you are trying to use a physical cd/dvd to install from, if you don't pick *anything* that it can boot from vbox will prompt you for what you want to use for boot media02:53
endersbean3k1obs3rv3r: i've been using pop for over a year and when I tried IMAP I didn't really like it. Can I get it to behave just like pop does in evolution?02:53
obs3rv3rendersbean3k1: if you configure your email client to leave the messages on the server you can use multiple email clients.02:54
Jordan_UAkivaLivecd1: Windows can't boot from GPT, so if you have windows installed you probably aren't actually using GPT.02:54
obs3rv3rendersbean3k1: But using multiple Email clients for POP is what I not recommend.02:54
obs3rv3rendersbean3k1: oh wait! You can have your gmail configurd to keep messages on the server02:55
obs3rv3rendersbean3k1: if that is what you were looking for.02:55
AkivaLivecd1justupgraded: not using vbox,02:55
endersbean3k1obs3rv3r: yeah that's what i just tried to do02:55
endersbean3k1obs3rv3r: actually both email clients are / were configured to leave email on the server, but they were not02:55
CondoritoWhat does this mean, please? ERROR: "Need 'to' or 'from' clause"02:55
endersbean3k1obs3rv3r: email would only download to one client, and not appear on the other02:55
obs3rv3rendersbean3k1: You mean they downloaded the emails?02:55
zylogz80is there any way in Unity to assign shortcut keys to some of the functionality? such as bringing up the app launcher or viewing the workspaces? I like the UI but it's really mouse dependent02:56

AkivaLivecd1It still cannot see the windows 7 partition02:56
endersbean3k1obs3rv3r: well all my messages are still in my inbox, so that's good02:56
endersbean3k1obs3rv3r: what i tried to do was use the 'enable pop for all mail, even if it's already been downloaded' to recover all the mail to my evolution client02:56
endersbean3k1obs3rv3r: but then it started downloading my mail from the very beginning of my account, some 3000 emails ago02:57
endersbean3k1obs3rv3r: it seems to like to download ~300 emails at a time02:57
endersbean3k1obs3rv3r: but since i still have all the mail in evolution, it's all showing up as unread diplicates02:57
Jordan_UAkivaLivecd1: Do you know what GPT is? If so, do you know why you appear to have GPT signatures?02:57
Jordan_UAkivaLivecd1: What do you mean by "sounds about right"?02:57
obs3rv3rendersbean3k1: Yeap it does so.02:57
endersbean3k1obs3rv3r: should i just delete all my mail, redownload it all, and then leave the 'enable pop for all mail' checked?02:58
obs3rv3rendersbean3k1: There was a trick for that though. You had to do something with the All Mail folder I forgot.02:58
AlanMetacan someone give me a suggestion for a ubuntu program?02:58
obs3rv3rendersbean3k1: Your mails are in inbox and in the All Mail folder too. That is the reason you are having dups I guess.02:59
endersbean3k1obs3rv3r: i don't see an all mail folder02:59

Tim2009ShapeShifter499: The first step would be a reboot of the system, and then check to see if it still screws up.03:15

HermanDEGuest61297, Under Ubuntu or Windows?03:44
ShapeShifter499HermanDE,  so what do you think is up?03:44

Licuadoraok, lspci shows that I have an Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 02)03:46

gurpreetthank you ilovefairuz i am new to irc03:47
tortoiseHerman, thanks but that doesn't help me very much.03:47
epotter489_Any help on how to update in NBE would be greatly appreciated.  I'm new to Ubuntu.  Having a bit of a struggle with this interface.03:47
Guest61297cdoublejj_: some realtek products just flat out aren't supported in ubuntu03:47
ilovefairuztortoise: pick a book on ubuntu system administration03:48
LicuadoraI must say that in Ubuntu page tells me to go to  cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec, but there is nothing in asound/cards03:48
cdoublejj_is there a list?03:48

epotter489_Help.  Can someone please tellme where to click to update my new install of Ubuntu NBE?03:49
ShapeShifter499HermanDE,  I'll try sticking debian or something else onto the old thing... if all else fails I'll tell my mom...03:49
HermanDEShapeShifter499, I just gave up 7 PPC machines today.03:49
justin21212ok so i am having a hard time even seeing my screen these waves are killing me03:49
tortoiseHerman, that's the issue, I don't know anything specific to learn. Which is why I'm kind of at a loss as to what I should be learning.03:49
epotter489_So I have to be root or is there an icon someplace that would kick this off?03:49
ShapeShifter499HermanDE,  I can all ways turn it into a server03:49

ShapeShifter499HermanDE, oh, why not working03:50
HermanDEShapeShifter499, it seems to be destined that PPC is only for the really big guys.03:50
Licuadoraall I got is  Kernel modules: snd-hda-intel03:50
HermanDEShapeShifter499, Just really old.....03:50
greekho03:50
HermanDEShapeShifter499, and too much of a bother to install anything on.03:50
epotter489_ilovefairuz, I can't seem to find where to get to a terminal on NBE Unity.03:50
HermanDEtortoise, Step one is to understand that most servers are a collection of running services.03:51
ShapeShifter499HermanDE, ya03:51
earthshadeilovefairuz: What exactly should I change03:51
FoolishOwlTortoise, are you trying to learn system administration in general? If so, you might want to look at community college courses. There are some good online courses.03:51
LicuadoraCan some one tell me how to find out wich model is my built in sound card?03:51
HermanDEtortoise, And that each service has it's own problems.03:51
HermanDEtortoise, So, a good starting place is to learn about how the DNS system works.03:51

HermanDEShapeShifter499, Not too many people want to download files from a 10MiB ethernet connected server.  :)03:52
LicuadoraLike, in one forum says to paste this: options snd-hda-intel probe_mask=1 And in Ubuntu page tells me to paste this: options snd-hda-intel model=MODEL03:52

HermanDEjohn38, Add a new gadget to the panel.... right click on the panel....  add to panel..   Select the networking toy.04:18
ilovefairuziasher: did you install using wubi?04:18
nickmoeckjvm_: Did you restart apache after installing php5-gd ?04:18
dw-iasher: boot cd and choose fix grub04:18
bluefox83iasher: you have a usb or cd/dvd installer?04:18
HermanDEjvm_, that *may* not have been a good idea.04:19
airtonixjvm_, it would also be useful if you described how you installed apache2 mysql & php5 on your ubuntu server04:19
greezmunkeyAkiva: yikes. Oher than removing the usb/bluetooth device, and plugging it back in I don't know.04:19
iasherI have no CD, I used Update Mgr04:19
jvm_airtonix, the php.ini from ubuntu was...lost after reinstalling php on that system which was necessary after an update from an older ubuntu version.04:19
HermanDEjvm_, most distros are slightly different.  Specifically in how things are setup in the /etc directory.04:19
john38HermanDE, add a new gadget?04:19
dw-iasher: burn one :/04:19
jvm_airtonix, the ubuntu system is my desktop, installation with apt-get.04:19
HermanDEjohn38, sure.04:19
airtonixjvm_, ... never version upgrade on mission critical servers04:19
john38HermanDE, theres no networking icon in add to panel04:19
jvm_nickmoeck, yes, i restarted.04:20
AlanMetaIf your on 9.04 on Ubuntu Server, how do you dist-upgrade to 10.10?04:20
airtonixjvm_, you now need to go through all your conf files and work out if they are no longer needed or if they are interferring with the new binaries04:20
jvm_airtonix, the ubuntu system we are talking about is my desktop system, and in no way critical.04:20
HermanDEjohn38, I've got it...  "Network Monitor".04:20
pksadiqjohn38: add network monitor to see traffic, and add Notification Area for etho related04:20
iasherIs burning a CD the only solutioN? That means another 3 hours downloading the program via Windows. CRAP.04:20
HermanDEjohn38, Might have been an addition that I installed.04:20
ilovefairuzjvm_: sudo apt-get install --reinstall php5-common04:20
dw-iasher: use vista boot menu theres a program i forget the name04:21
airtonixjvm_, to be honest if you've done a upgrade from a previous version of ubuntu then you can expect all sorts of hilarity if you didn't purge the old confs files04:21
dw-iasher: try EasyBCD04:21
jvm_ilovefairuz, didn't change anything with the module activation problem.04:21
HermanDEairtonix, And lots of sleepless nights wondering why the nothing is working on the server.....04:22
rwwAlanMeta: sudo apt-get install update-manager-core; then sudo do-release-upgrade to upgrade 9.04 to 9.10. Restart. sudo do-release-upgrade to upgrade 9.10 to 10.04. Restart. sudo nano /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and set Prompt=normal . sudo do-release-upgrade to upgrade 9.10 to 10.04.04:22
Akivagreezmunkey: https://bugs.launchpad.net/udev/+bug/637208/comments/604:22
ilovefairuzjvm_: did you generate a php.ini file by yourself?04:22
iasher. jvm_ I just downloaded that, not sure what to do with it04:22
Akivafixed04:22
rwwsorry, last one is 10.04 to 10.10.04:22
dw-iasher: you have to add a menu item for the ubuntu partition04:22
jvm_ilovefairuz, the php.ini file was copied from a working debian system.04:22
john38pksadiq, where is network monitor?04:23
pksadiqjohn38: in add to panel isn't it there?04:23
iasherAhh. I did notice it recognized the partition. afraid to mess with it lest it become lost.04:23
john38pksadiq, no04:23
ilovefairuzjvm_: what ubuntu version are you running?04:23
Rob235is virtualbox 3.2.8 in repo one that officially supports osx or do i need 3.2.1004:23
jvm_ilovefairuz, 10.0404:23
pksadiqjohn38: right click on panel> add to panel> (tried?)04:23
dw-iasher: its just a link really it wont modify anything04:23
dw-iasher: then update the MBR04:24
john38pksadiq, network monitor isnt there04:24
ilovefairuzjvm_: check /usr/share/php5/04:24
iasherdamn. i wish i knew things. like what MBR stood for. and other acronyms, like SOS, which some ppl eat for brkfast.04:25
jvm_ilovefairuz, there are php.ini-production files. should i use them?04:25
ilovefairuzjvm_: yeap04:25
dw-iasher: MBR is just the place the comp looks on bootup. so when you make a grub menu or BCD menu you have to write it there.. and might see a warning, cuz its all serious04:25
pksadiqjohn38: gnome-netstatus-applet04:26
jvm_ilovefairuz, after copying the production file to /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and restarting apache, a search for "gd" in my phpinfo() output still shows up nothing.04:26
iasherSo, i'ma run blahblahblah, find the ubuntu loader, select it, and update MBR? Damn, I think I did that. I'm still getting 'no mldr' or something, and a white screen.04:27
john38pksadiq, type that in terminal04:27
ilovefairuzjvm_: sudo service apache2 force-reload04:27
dw-iasher: youre in windows with easybcd not using grub/ubuntu loader.. youre usign the bcd loader to boot the ubuntu partition :)04:27
jvm_ilovefairuz, i used the init script itself, but still no change ;)04:27
pksadiqjohn38: locate for that file, it I think in /usr/lib diroctory, and run it04:28
dw-iasher: you'd have to reinstall grub once you get booted up04:28
dw-iasher: ifyou want04:28
ilovefairuzjvm_: what's in /etc/php5/conf.d/ ?04:28
jvm_ilovefairuz, nothing.04:28
iasherAAAAHH! I-C! Then on reboot it will load, or immediately. I understand there's a common problem with the upgrade and a config file replacement will repair it.04:28
dw-iasher: thats another story g/l :p04:29
iasherDamn, 10.10 best be worth all this. I thought the Linux struggle was at an end.04:29
iasherBut if it was, why bother?! ;)04:29
jvm_ilovefairuz, thanks for that idea.04:29
pksadiqjohn38: might be, I feel it's not installed on your system , in terminal do sudo apt-get install gnome-netstatus-applet04:29
jvm_ilovefairuz, on the debian system there are a number of files for the different plugins, apparently.04:29
jvm_ilovefairuz, give me a minute to copy them and try again.04:29
iasher<dw-> thankyouthankyouthankyou.04:29
ilovefairuzjvm_: sudo apt-get purge php5-gd; sudo apt-get install php5-gd04:30
iasherdamn, I've forgotten every IRC convention I ever knew. I ain't IRC'd since before Perpetual September.04:30
Rob235is it a bad idea to use my 10.04 home folder in 10.10?04:30
Rob235is there a way to clean it up for 10.10?04:30
john38pksadiq, its not there04:30
john38pksadiq, ok04:31
jvm_ilovefairuz, thanks a lot! that did it.04:31
FoolishOwliasher, funny, I was just reading about Eternal September.04:31
ilovefairuzjvm_: you're welcome04:31

arrrghhhhey all.  i use ps3mediaserver to stream movies to my ps3, and i'm having issues with certain movies.  looks like the best plan is to compile ffmpeg, x264 & mplayer by hand - i do that, but when i go to install ps3mediaserver, it still thinks i don't have mplayer installed...04:44
arrrghhhbut i should.04:44
tioxI try to run something and I get "Error: no display specified"04:44
arrrghhhtiox, are you running it from the terminal on your local workstation or SSH'd into another?04:44

john38pksadiq, just for future reference how do i remove network etho icon04:47
dipungal_kamois there a channel dedicated to dsniff04:47
airtonixjohn38, killall nm-applet04:47
pksadiqjohn38: right click on the icon, and remove from panel04:47
john38pksadiq, it doesnt have remove from panel option04:48
john38airtonix, thanks04:48
pksadiqjohn38: if you get the menu of the applet, then you must see a small parellel lines left and near to  it, right click there04:49
airtonixjohn38, you understand the difference between the applet "Network Monitor" and the icon that lets you change network interface ip addresses and so forth ?04:50
john38airtonix, yeah04:50
pksadiqjohn38: k, hear airtonix , I'll back , I have to go for a while for shopping ;)04:50
airtonixjohn38, ok so if you simply right click it and remove from panel, then that removes the entire notification tray, since it is a "child" object of the notification tray... not it's own gnome applet.04:50
arrrghhhanyone ever deal with mplayer-mt or ffmpeg-mt?04:51
john38airtonix, ok i killed nm-applet how do i get it back04:52
RedSingularitypksadiq:  Ok that will do thanks04:53
airtonixjohn38, nm-applet04:53
john38airtonix, i went to Notification area it only shows two parrell lines04:53
john38airtonix, ok cool04:53
airtonixjohn38, also, i think if you kill nm-applet it also cuts off your network connections...can't remember for sure though04:53
arrrghhhairtonix, i think it depends if they're configured in /etc/network/interfaces or not...04:54
airtonixarrrghhh, yeah in that case nm-applet wont start.04:54
airtonix(unless you run it with sudo i think)04:55

rusivi!grub | pepee05:29
ubottupepee: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards.05:29
arrrghhhmalachai, well install k3b, it's MUCH better than brasero.  it's like nero, but good :P05:29
malachailol05:29
malachaiok05:29
arrrghhhGunni, i got that from a 30 second google search...05:30
pepeemost of them are easy to solve by knowing how to use it...05:30
taofdmalachai, i am a gnome user, but i must agree, k3b is an excellent prog05:30
Gunniheh well thanks again05:30
malachaiok well im going to try that. I got ISO Master but apparently it only mounts an iso, and I need to burn it.05:32

UpAllNightBrainThanks maco05:36

arrrghhhAlanMeta, there's an doc on upgrading servers.  i don't think you can go straight from 9.04 to 10.10 - i think you can only do that with LTS releases.05:40

rwwCtrl-H in GNOME file manager, look for .minecraft. ls -a in Terminal.06:01
rwwspecifically, they're saved in ~/.minecraft/saves/WorldN, where N is the slot number.06:01
Dr_WillisHow Logical :)06:03
MaahesMy screen keeps going intermittently black and then reloads, it just started doing this, I've 6 days uptime. It seems to be triggered by launching expo mode in Compiz.

unpersongMinuses, You've got me.  I really haven't used Debian since before Ubuntu existed.06:16
AkivaDr_Willis: sda1 does not show up on that list, it is my windows install06:16
Dr_WillisriPPerMD:  you could check the modules loaded with 9.10 and compare to the ones in 10.10  perhaps a module is not getting autoloaded properly06:16
unpersongMinuses, You probably can't use the Ubuntu ones with Debian (or well, maybe you can but it's probably asking for conflicts).  But there may be equivalent stuff for Debian.06:17
Dr_WillisAkiva:  after editing the 40_custom you have been doing a 'sudo update-grub' ?06:17
riPPerMDok I will check that and as well test in 10.0406:17

rajmahendracan anyone help me to configure my netbook for wifi ?06:23
Dr_WillisAkiva:  you could pastebin your fdisk -l output --> 'sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit'06:23
Maahesrajmahendra, First try this, Connect to the internet using ethernet, sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras06:23
pksadiq!sound06:23
ubottuIf you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings.  If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files,  see !players and !mp3.06:23
rajmahendramaahes: sure let me try06:24
gMinusesdw-: is System Package Manager the same thing as Synaptic?06:24
MaahesActually, before that06:24
Maahesrajmahendra,06:24
dw-gMinuses: yea06:24
Akivahttp://pastebin.com/7Ewp3E4E06:24
unpersongMinuses, apt-get remove will not remove some files, containing settings and things I think.  But apt-get purge will06:24
MaahesConnect it to the Internet, then go to Administration, Hardware Drivers06:24
AkivaDr_Willis: wow, I am learning really useful commands here :P06:24
Maahes^above rajmahendra06:24
unpersongMinuses, In the info for a package you can see which packages are dependent on that package.06:25
unpersongMinuses, You can definitely see that in Synaptic.06:26
Maahesin general you want to be using aptitude rather than apt-get06:26
Maahesaptitude has dependency conflict resolution.06:26
gMinusesdw-: that's what I did. I want to remove evolution, so I search for "evolution" in synaptic and selected all installed packages whose names contain that phrase and it turned out that gnome-desktop would be removed too.06:26
dw-gMinuses: hehe :)06:26
Dr_WillisgMinuses:  thats just a meta-package06:26
unpersongMinuses, gnome-desktop may just be a meta-package.06:26
Dr_Willisunless you are REALLY short on space.. I wouldent bother uninstalling all that stuff.06:27
MaahesgMinuses, this is correct, gnome desktop includes exolution, install xcfe if you want a gtk-based DE, and don't want gnome and its dependencies06:27
unpersongMinuses, Meaning it may not actually install anything, it's just a placeholder that depends on a bunch of other things.  So that by installing that you'll install all those things at once.06:27
gMinusesunperson: Thanks, I didn't check package dependence. Will do that in the future.06:27
Maahesor go for a DE (like AwesomeWM) that doesn't include any large dependencies06:27
Dr_Willislubuntu-desktop is getting very well done these days also.06:27
unpersongMinuses, It should say in the package description if it's just a meta-package.06:28
Dr_Willislubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop  all metapackages that pull in th full XXXX desktops06:28
gMinusesDr_Willis: Maahes: so is it ok to remove gnome-desktop? It won't uninstall gnome itself?06:28
Dr_WillisgMinuses:  thats how meta packages work.06:28
john38how come Ubuntu shows 3.9GB ram when i have 4GB installed06:28
bekorhello06:28
john38with 64 bit06:28
rwwgMinuses: presumably, you tried to remove evolution-data-server. evolution-data-server is a core part of GNOME and not really what you're thinking of when you think of evolution.06:28
Dr_WillisgMinuses:  really tho.. You are worrying too much about Uninstalling stuff.06:28
rww!info evolution-data-server06:29
ubottuevolution-data-server (source: evolution-data-server): evolution database backend server. In component main, is optional. Version 2.30.3-2ubuntu1 (maverick), package size 527 kB, installed size 1540 kB06:29
rwwyay storage databases, and all that.06:29
bekorhi folks i have a question06:29
gMinusesDr_Willis: yea, I guess that's a bad habit.06:29
rwwIf I remember correctly, all of evolution apart from e-d-s can be removed without removing ubuntu-desktop.06:29
MaahesgMinuses, um, technically aptitude won't remove them if you're very careful but aptitude may *want* to remove them when you run an upgrade command.06:29
=== james is now known as Guest58573
MaahesI don't know if they've changed that behavior in recent builds, but thats the way metapackages have worked for me since Dapper.06:30
Dr_WillisgMinuses:  my FUlly loaded ubuntu system here. the / is still under 10gb.06:30
bekorwhen someone has time maybe you can help me06:30
dw-bekor: just ask06:30
Dr_WillisMetaPackages are a bit of a work around method of doing what they want.. theres potential issues with removeing them06:30
gMinusesrww: you are right. I did try to remove them. so they are developed by evolution but not relate to the email client?06:30
rwwMaahes: Default behavior for aptitude, amongst other package managers, is to mark the dependencies of a metapackage it's removing as manually installed, and thus not remove them.06:30
rwwMaahes: it's some setting in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/06:31
rwwgMinuses: as I understand it, it was developed for evolution and is now used by gnomish things in general.06:31
bekorthank you do you know how to update from ubuntu 10.10 to super OS 10.10 in the terminal or do i have to download a OS06:31
pksadiqjohn38: for manufactures, 4 GB = 4000 MB, but in ubuntu= 1 GB = 1024 Mb, might be that's the reason, you might find the same in Hard disk too06:31
rwwbekor: SuperOS isn't supported in this channel.06:31
aphelionhi06:31
gMinusesMaahes: I didn't use aptitude, I use apt-get, I guess synaptic use it too?06:32
aphelioncan some one teach me how to change my DNS settings so i don't get redirected by wififee?06:32
bekordo you know wher i could go06:32
Maahesrww, huh, I remember aptitude telling me it wanted to uninstall 200 packages or so when I last did it, but wait, you're right, I've removed evolution and thus gnome-desktop and I'm still using gnome06:32
rwwpksadiq, john38: RAM is sold in 1024 units, not 1000 ones.06:32
dw-bekor: it is recommended you stay on ubuntu06:32
MaahesgMinuses, in general, you probably want to use aptitude. Synaptic uses aptitude in its back end06:32
Dr_Willisbekor:  last i checked superos was just a LOT of added packages..  check the SuperOS web site. or the OMGubuntu or webupd8 web site. i recall them mentioning superos pacakges in ubuntu befor06:32
bekori thought super OS was ubuntu?06:32
rwwbekor: It's one of the many derivatives of Ubuntu that aren't officially supported.06:33
aphelionmmm, can anyone help me?06:33
Dr_Willisbekor:  its a ubuntu variant. its not an official ubuntu variant06:33
aphelionI'm trying to change my DNS settings so that i don't get redirected by wififee06:33
Dr_Willisbekor:  theres proberly a dozen other 'variants' we can name that are also NOT supported officially here.06:33
pksadiqrww: actually kilo =1000 and mega= 10^6 mathematically, but only computer based ones use kilo as 1024 etc06:33
gMinusesrww: Got it. I will try to not remove them the next time. Thanks06:34
rwwpksadiq: I'm aware. This doesn't change the fact that RAM is sold in base 2 units, not base 10 ones.06:34
bekorthanks so,if i look at what is in super os i guess i could just install the same stuff from the soft where thingy right?06:34
gMinusesMaahes: OK. I will try aptitude the next time. Thanks.06:34
pksadiqrww: k06:34
Dr_Willisbekor:  thats the basics of it.  from what i googled at -> http://www.webupd8.org/2010/10/easily-install-google-earth-teamviewer.html06:34
aphelioncan some one help me  change my DNS settings so that i don't get redirected by wififee?06:35

aphelioni guess my question is too noob here, i'll go post on the forums instead06:36

aphelionthanks, let me try that06:36

Dr_Willisbut that may get reverted by the network-manager :)06:37

aphelionDr_Willis, i get this http://pastie.org/1244353 in my resolv.conf06:42
_Zaphod_as if it were installed by wubi.06:42
_Zaphod_(and increase the r/w loop, btu that's the easy part.06:42
rohith_Hello any one please tell e how to define howmuch lines to scroll on using scroll wheel of mouse in ubuntu06:42
_Zaphod_how the heck do I do that? the windoze hard drive is NTFS.06:42
rwwjohn38: Alrighty. The -generic kernel on 32-bit Ubuntu is limited to 4GB of total memory, including memory in things like your graphics card. Therefore, the total amount of RAM it can see is going to be somewhat less than 4GB, hence the 3.9GB.06:43
rww!pae | john3806:43
ubottujohn38: To use more than ~3.2GB RAM on a 32bit system you can install the PAE-enabled kernel. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnablingPAE for more info06:43
john38rww, sorry wrong machine06:44
gurpreetrohith_, go to Profile Preferences -> scrolling06:44

_Zaphod_is it really as simple as doing a frugal install and then repalcing the r/w loop?06:44
gurpreetset it to anything you like06:44
_Zaphod_wit the one from my usb stick?06:44
john38rww, its 64 bit maverick on 4GB machine06:44

rohith_gurpreet: profile preference what is that?06:44

gurpreetyes i know06:48
gurpreetsorry about that06:48
MaahesI know a way to set the mouse scroll globally but it involves editing xorg06:48
rwwjohn38: assuming your hardware supports PAE, yes06:48
gurpreetrohith_, you can do it in xorg.conf06:48
Maahesthere's no easy way to reassign it in gnome, for very stupid reasons06:49
KanchanTwoPointO /usr/lib/nx/nxsetup --install doesn't work ...06:49
gurpreetbut you need to be carefull with that06:49
rwwjohn38: I looked up the reason why Linux doesn't show absolutely all of your memory even on 64-bit systems a while ago, but I'm having trouble finding it again >.>06:49
rohith_gurpreet:  by the way how can i create a xorg file in my home directory so dat changes will effect only on my profile06:49
john38rww, im not on the other machine so i cant tell you the uname -a06:49
Maahesrohith_, specifically under your mouse settings in xorg.conf add the following: Option "VertScrollDelta" 606:49
Dr_Willisrww:  last i recall looking that up - it was due to reserved space used by the hardware devices on the pc.06:49
gurpreetdpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg06:50
apheliondw-, Dr_Willis, sorry to bother you again, but the DNS changes in both network tools and etc/resolv.conf isn't preventing the redirects06:50

aphelionMaahes, dw- ,right now i can always boot back to windows every few hours, but i'm sure you agree its an annoying "fix"06:57

DiamondciteThey are the same project and I would recommend you try it in mplayer.07:06
DiamondciteMissingPerson: There is a chance you might need to make the subs UTF-8 before they'll work right.07:06
dw-have their ever been malicious injections into popular open source software?  or does the typical audit trail and user diligence catch everything?07:06
MissingPersonis there a gtk frontend?07:06
_Zaphod_without proper support, multibyte characters show as gibberish07:07
f00bar80KB1JWQ, how to disable selinux07:07
dw-there*, wow07:07
Diamondcitedw-: Don't take my word on it.. but I think most projects have a controlled submition so that random useless code doesn't get in to a public release.07:07
afspeardw: i've often wondered how that works too07:07
afspear*dw-07:07
DiamondciteMissingPerson: name your subs the same name as the video but keep the extesion as .smi and play the file using the mplayer command line07:08
Kartagis!lamp07:08
ubottuLAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)07:08
pksadiq!xmms2 | MissingPerson07:08
ubottuMissingPerson: xmms is no longer being developed, see http://bugs.debian.org/461309 for more details.  Consider using audacious, bmpx, or xmms2 instead.07:08
_Zaphod_back doors have been known to get snuck into projects, but they are hard to hide.07:08
Dr_WillisI can think of one instance where some malicious code got into a project. and was discovered later. i forget what it even was..  irc server? it was a news artical this year i recall.07:08
pksadiqMissingPerson: sorry, I mean xmms2 handles some more formates07:08
Diamondcitepksadiq: I don't think xmms2 handles videos..07:08
pksadiqDiamondcite: sorry, I mean xine07:09
_Zaphod_yeah, ircII had a few backdoors back in the day.07:09
pksadiq!xine07:09
dw-a lot of things run as root.. so its a pretty glaring risk.. moral of the story.. never upgrade07:09
uLinuxHow can I remove a specific language?07:09
uLinuxie zh-cn07:09
MissingPersonDiamondcite: doesn't work, how can i change them to UTF-8?07:09
_Zaphod_anyone remember /ctcp JUPE?07:09
pksadiqMissingPerson: tried xine?07:10
Diamondcitepksadiq: Assuming one can get mplayer working properly.. it has among the largest support.. since it even uses xine codecs plus it's own and some win32 ones too.07:10
rwwDr_Willis: unrealircd, and it was a trojan added to the download .tar.gz, not malicious code in the project itself07:10
uLinux_Zaphod_: this is Ubuntu support channel07:10
DiamondciteMissingPerson: I don't know a proper way.. but the improper way.. open it up in a text editor which CAN see it properly.07:10
_Zaphod_ok..07:10
DiamondciteThen open up another text editor and copy and paste the whole file ^_^07:10
* _Zaphod_ shuts up.07:10
pksadiqDiamondcite: wow, so can I make windows plugins as such work with mplayer, if so how ?07:10
uLinux!ot | _Zaphod_07:11
ubottu_Zaphod_: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics (though our !guidelines apply there too). Thanks!07:11
uLinux;)07:11
dw-thx for feedback.. i started it07:11
Diamondcitepksadiq: The mplayer site has win32 codecs customized to itself, you can't just plop any random windows codec and expect it to work.07:11
pksadiqDiamondcite: k07:12
Dr_Willispksadiq:  i think they are also on the medibuntu package site. but Honestly. Ive been using VLC and rarely find stuff i cant play.07:12
_Zaphod_anyway, my first attempt was to run the installer from the persistent usb. that didn't work at all.07:12
_Zaphod_it was unabel to reize the partitions.07:12
Dr_Willis_Zaphod_:  thats odd.. may not be due to the installer being on the usb however. I DO normally install from a botable flash drive. that have persistant save files.07:13
pksadiqDr_Willis: VLC can't handle .mid audio and videos/audios that use smar as audio07:13
MissingPersonDiamondcite: Every text editor loads up gibberish07:13
pksadiqDr_Willis: samr *07:13
_Zaphod_so i shrunk the windows one down a bit with a partition resizer in windows.07:13
Dr_Willispksadiq:  Midi. :) now you are bringing back OLD school memories..07:13
DiamondciteDr_Willis: VLC and MPlayer are probably rivals, though I would say MPlayer has better support for SSA/ASS subs than VLC does, least as for 6 months ago still..07:13
_Zaphod_then it got further, but when i tried to boot it, it kernel paniced.07:13
DiamondciteMissingPerson: Is this linux korean capable?07:14
_Zaphod_almost immediately.07:14
uLinuxWhy Ubuntu install Chinese packs? I want to remove it. tks07:14
MissingPersonDiamondcity: yeah07:14
_Zaphod_(it runs just fine from the usb on the same computer)07:14
DiamondciteMissingPerson: How about renaiming it from .smi to .txt and try to open it in firefox?07:14
DiamondciteMaybe you can switch encodings in there.07:14
Dr_Willis_Zaphod_:  resizeing partitons can change the UUID's ive seen. but if you did a install from a flash driev + persistant save. it does NOT copy over the 'saved changes' on the usb. its a normal default install. same as from an ISO/CD.07:14
Genieliuhey,guys.I got a problem with entering ubuntu's graphic mode07:15
pksadiqDr_Willis: I still usr midi, why you say so? I use midi files and open in  any keybard programmes to know the notes of the music, so I can play i my own on pianos, also it's so small in size07:15
_Zaphod_right... i an tto keep the changes...07:15
GenieliuAnd I am using the txt mode07:15
MissingPersonDiamondcite: same problem07:15
Dr_Willis_Zaphod_:  then you may need to do an install.. then open up the save file.  its mountable via the loop back feature of mount.07:15
DiamondciteMissingPerson: Will you mind going through some troubles to get this to work? (quite a bit might need to be installed too)07:16
_Zaphod_the har ddirve is 160 gm.07:16
_Zaphod_it's half windoze and half hackintosh.07:17
_Zaphod_first i tried srinking the window spartition.07:17
_Zaphod_and manually adding a normal and swap partition.07:17

GenieliuI use Win7 and Ubuntu in my computer and i install the ati's sofeware in win7 before i enter ubuntu07:18
* _Zaphod_ apologizes for his ancient console IRC client he is using. :)07:18
airtonix!grub | CIAonLSD07:18
ubottuCIAonLSD: grub is the default boot manager for Ubuntu releases before Karmic (9.10). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto - See !grub2 for Karmic onwards.07:18
CIAonLSDyeah okay dude, i know how to restore grub07:19
Genieliunow i can't get to the ubuntu's graphic mode07:19
airtonixCIAonLSD, "dude" read what it says.07:19
CIAonLSDim dealing with grub2 and want to remove the windows 7 entry07:19
GenieliuAnyone can help me ?07:19
DiamondciteGenieliu: Which graphic card do you have? How did you end up in txt mode?07:19
Dr_WillisGenieliu:  disable the /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober  file by making it not executable.07:19
Gorrothhi07:19
Dr_Willisoops wrong nick.07:19
Dr_WillisCIAonLSD: :  disable the /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober  file by making it not executable.07:20
_Zaphod_as i was saying...  it kernel panicked immediately when I tried to load up, complaining about being unable to read from block 8,1 or something liek that. kinda hard to screenshot the error. :)07:20
Gorrothanyone tried using vmware on ubuntu with a Windows 7 guest?  wondering if anyone has tried using starcraft 2 with it07:20
Dr_WillisCIAonLSD:  then rerun update-grub as root.07:20
MissingPersonDiamondcite: Tried using a different sub file for the same movie, same language, same problem.07:20
Dr_Willis_Zaphod_:  going to be hard for us to trouble shoot suich a complex setup. Could be as simple as the hd(#,#)entry is wrong, or the UUID;s are wrong.07:21
DiamondciteMissingPerson: Do you know the original character encoding of the file?07:21
DiamondciteMissingPerson: Actually can you send me the subs alone? I need to experiment a little.07:21
CIAonLSDdisable or delete?07:22
MissingPersonDiamondcite, can't tell you07:22
pksadiqDiamondcite:  secrete :::07:22
GenieliuDiamondcite: the 4000 series07:22
_Zaphod_well the partition resizing was done before the install.07:22
GenieliuDr_Willis: I have made the /etc/grub.d/30** file not executable,now i am trying to reboot it07:23
CIAonLSDhow can i make os_prober non-executable?07:24
Jordan_UDr_Willis: Resizing a filesystem alone will never change its UUID.07:25
_Zaphod_even if i have space between the two partitions, if i picked "install side it owuld attempt to INCREASE the windows partition and undo my earlier resize, so I decided to manually partition.07:25
DiamondciteMissingPerson: I see... well then good luck figuring out the encoding "iconv -f <whatever the korean encoding is> -t utf8 [filename] > [newfilename]"07:25
AemaethCIAonLSD, to change a file's permissions either learn chmod or right click on it in a gui and tab permissions07:25
_Zaphod_lets say I have 10 gigs to work with beteen the two. how should I handle the partitioning?07:25
pksadiqCIAonLSD: sudo chmod -x /usr/bin/os-prober07:26
CIAonLSD-x makes it non-executable?07:26
Jordan_U_Zaphod_: I doubt that it will actually be easier to migrate your existing install this way than to setup whatever applications you need again.07:26
pksadiqCIAonLSD: yes07:26
CIAonLSDk07:26
Dr_WillisJordan_U:  if you say so.. but i thionk ive seen it happen to others.  I  rarely resize.07:26
extorIs there any way I can enable aggressice write caching in linux, the same way one can now enable it in windows 7...what I want is for the kernel to only write flush once in a blue moon to minimize write lag07:26
_Zaphod_the applicatiosn took a while....07:26
Dr_Willis_Zaphod_:  with just 10gb for linux = 1 partition for / and a small swap partition.07:27
_Zaphod_yeah, that's what I tried to do. set one as ext3 main with mount point of / and a 2 gig swap partition.07:28
geboyhi, i have a problem with ubuntu 10.10.07:28
_Zaphod_and the install continued, but then after the reboot I was stuck.07:28
malachaiHey can someone help me get an iso burnt using k3b? It keeps spitting errors out at me, and Im not sure what Im doing wrong.?.07:29
geboyi installed it and first thing, the screen dont fit. and everytime i log in with the username and pass i made when in instalation, it kicked me back to the login screen.07:29
Dr_Willis_Zaphod_:  8gb for / wouldent be a very usealbe system for me. :)07:29
_Zaphod_well it's not intended as a desktop.07:29
_Zaphod_the thing will be runnign mysl, apache, and a backup copy of a billing system.07:29
_Zaphod_oh, and sendmail in case it ever needs it.07:30
geboycan somebody give me a clue on what to do?07:30
Diamondcitegeboy: Sounds like X is crashing... I wonder if the right drivers were used..07:30
airtonix_Zaphod_, did you account for growing logs in /var or the dbase in /var/lib/mysql ?07:30
airtonix_Zaphod_, or how about the growing uploads per website in /var/www ?07:30
Diamondcitemalachai: Is this the first time using k3b?07:30
geboyDiamondcite: hmm...it might be. coz i'm using old machine07:30
malachaiYes07:30
_Zaphod_there will only be one website. the interface to the billing software.07:31
Diamondcitemalachai: Did k3b complain about the permissions?07:31
airtonix_Zaphod_, 8gb is not even enough for a standard long term desktop on /07:31
Dr_Willis_Zaphod_:  you are setting up a windows desktop machine with Windows, Hackintosh and Ubuntu - and the ubuntu side is to be doing all this stuff?07:31
malachainot sure now i already closed it out an dam trying again.07:31
_Zaphod_i just wan tto make sure it will work befre clobbering the other stuff on the machine. :)07:31
Diamondcitemalachai: You can either save the output.. or try brasero as another CD/DVD Writting program07:31
besogonHey. What is running on unr10.04? I want to use it instead of the damn mutter07:32
geboyDiamondcite: how can i fix it? i'm using ECS P4M800-M mobo. 512 DDR1 Ram. with onboard vga.07:32
malachaiBrasero wont make a bootable disk07:32
Diamondcitegeboy: ECS is a pain to work with since the company isn't around anymore!07:32
malachaiI have tried and wasted 3 disks on Brasero07:32
_Zaphod_once i actually get it working the other OSes won't run.07:32
Dr_Willismalachai:  theres other disk burning tools in the repos.07:32
besogonmalachai: use cdrecord07:32
Diamondcitemalachai: I see bad idea then07:32
Dr_Willis!burn07:32
ubottuCD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, brasero, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus-CD-Burner, GToaster, xcdroast (GNOME), wodim (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto07:32
airtonix_Zaphod_, you need to plan it out first and get the partition right the first time round. makes doing backup schedules later on (and hotswap drives) much easier07:33
Dr_WillisI tend to use k3b for my Burning Needs07:33
geboyDiamondcite: ouch. ECS is gone? since when? geez i thought they made success here in asia07:33
malachaiAnd for some reason neither one of them will let me burn on a dvd-r . I have to use a dvd-dl because file is 4.6 GB. Dont know why it wont let me use a 4.7 GB dvd-r07:33
_Zaphod_the original server is running on a positively ancient slackware on a pentium 200 MMX. :)07:33
airtonix_Zaphod_, you need to acknowledge that the /var/cache/apt/* will grow due to software installing and updates...07:33
Dr_Willisbut i normally install from flash drives these days. I did set up grub2 to boot an ISO file from a hard drife and isntalled that way last night on a laptop.. that was a MUCH faster install then a flash drive.07:33
Diamondcitegeboy: Maybe I had the wrong company in mind.. well atleast there are specs for this board this time..07:33
geboyDiamondcite: okay, any idea how to fix it without changing the hardware?07:33
_Zaphod_which i can't possibly just transplant.07:34
geboyhihi07:34
besogonmalachai: cdrecord is needed in rebuild of the kernel to get ability writting on fast speed without errors07:34
Diamondcitegeboy: The last couple of times I had to work with then I was working blind x.x07:34
Diamondcitegeboy: Looking up drivers for S3 Unichrome07:34
malachaiOk Im gonna grab cdrecord and see what happens with it.07:34
Dr_WillisDiamondcite:  any time i see 's3' mentioned in relation with Linux.. its never a good thing.07:34
tioxCame in here to share a late-night moonlight-filled idea07:34
geboyDiamondcite: ok. gonna try looking on ubuntu site then.07:35
=== patrick is now known as Guest66983
malachaiapparently cdrecord is not available for Lucid?07:35
tioxWhat if, in the ubuntu font, a ubuntu symbol is put into place, so instead of using an image for the default theme, it is instead a typed character?07:35
airtonix_Zaphod_, personally i start with the assumption that /, /var, /usr & /home will be on separate partitions.07:35
DiamondciteDr_Willis: I vaguely recall a great deal of frustration the last time this was done..07:35
Dr_Willismalachai:  its been replaced by wodim last i checked07:35
Dr_Willis!info wodim07:35
ubottuwodim (source: cdrkit): command line CD/DVD writing tool. In component main, is optional. Version 9:1.1.10-1ubuntu3 (maverick), package size 427 kB, installed size 864 kB07:35
malachaiOooh wodim is a command line writing tool.07:36
Diamondcitegeboy: If possible I would seriously recommend getting an AGP graphic card.. ANYTHING...07:36
Dr_Willismalachai:  im pretty sure all these GUI's use wodim as their backend.07:36
pksadiq!info cdrecord07:36
ubottuPackage cdrecord does not exist in maverick07:36
Dr_Willisat least most of them do. :)07:36
malachaiWhich apparently I already have.07:36
malachaiHmm07:36
malachaiAny ideas on how to do this via command line?07:37
Dr_Willismalachai:   You could try a different GUI i guess. like k3b. Brasero has been known to be flakey at times. I rarely use it.07:37
uLinuxI just found that I should disable before watching videos. So how can I disable Compiz using the terminal?07:37
uLinux*disable Compiz07:37
pksadiqhow can I use !info here for a package in Lucid?07:37
besogonmalachai: read documentation to cdrecord attentively. I made a text file for all kind of events and when I want to write something on CD/dvd I just open command line and copy/paste.07:37
Dr_Willismalachai:  check the wodim docs. its cli options were not too complex last i looked into it.07:37
geboyDiamondcite: actually the reason i use the onboard one was because mine is broken. T.T07:37
Dr_WillisuLinux:  metacity --replace07:38

uLinuxDr_Willis: and compiz --replace to reenable?07:38
geboyfunny tho. it was fine to work with 08.0407:38
Dr_WillisuLinux:  yes. Or use the fusion-icon tool.07:38
uLinuxyeah i have it:p07:38

malachaiIts still there so I dont know why it wont find it, but its not.07:39

uLinuxDr_Willis: I get flickering watching videos or playing with compiz enabled.07:39
uLinuxand i have a decent machine07:39
tioxWell, the quick and dirty way is to type in killall compiz for now.07:39
DiverdudeI have installed ubuntuserver 10.10. Is there any way i can use that as a mediacenter ?07:39
_Zaphod_the original server has everything within 10 ouf of 60 gigs. 7.1 gigs of that has nothing to do with what the macine is supposed ot be doing. :)07:39

DiverdudeI have installed ubuntuserver 10.10. Is there any way i can use that as a mediacenter ?07:43
_Zaphod_so i should just nuke everything, install to the full hard drie, copy the rw loop on, go single user, mount it, and copy the fiels out of it?07:43
Dr_WillisuLinux:  ccsm tool has it under the general tab i recall.07:43

Dr_WillisDiverdude:  install whatever mediscenter software you want to use..07:43
malachaiOk it never even got to an actual writing state. Which it is now. So maybe its working this time, and I just needed to turn the write speed down.07:43

rwwcedric_: #ubuntu isn't a dating site. I strongly suggest you stop thinking it is.07:48

macowilliand: so state your question07:52
besogonmaco: it's only expression of my feelings it's not a curse07:52
Akivamaco: oh thanks, do you think my grub will be configured properly then after the install?07:53
williandits my windows on my computer i have to start in safe mode otherwise it wont load whats wrong and its slow if its not in safe mode07:53
dudedudeguys can i install the latest ubuntu on my netbook or is it not possible yet07:53
rwwwilliand: *Ubuntu* technical support. Windows isn't Ubuntu. Try ##windows.07:53
williandcrap did i say windows i meant ubuntu07:53
williandit dont wanna install07:54
Dr_Willisdudedude:  ubuntu 10.10 works on netbooks..07:54
macoAkiva: grub should autodetect other OSes that are already installed. if youre installing arch *after* ubuntu... it wont pick up on that though. then again you can also have arch install grub on sda and then it should replace it and pick everything up (though if arch installed a new grub it wouldnt pick up on new ubuntu kernels, youd have to add them manually. ditto new arch kernels if you let ubuntu control grub)07:54
williandya im all over the place right now i got note book and this just so confusing but on notebook it dont wanna go on07:54
jg47hmhow to end a progress that is frozen?07:54

Dr_Willisdudedude:  the netbook edition is designed to work on netbooks..07:56
dudedudeof course07:56
Dr_Willisdudedude:  normal Ubuntu should also work fine on netbooks..07:56
spinningcompassdudedude: I hear you. However, I did install 10.10 on a Toshiba NB305 (a netbook).07:56

dudedudebut there was some kind of a tackle with that piece of software you use to install ubuntu07:56
besogonDr_Willis: oh. don't lie to him. Unr is not for netbooks now07:56
dudedudespinningcompass whats the name of the other software you use to install it07:56
Dr_Willisdudedude:  i dont recall anyone ever stateing you couldent  install to netbooks.07:57
spinningcompassdudedude: um... ubetboot something?07:57

spinningcompassbrb07:57
dudedudeit didn't work when i tried it two weeks ago07:57
macojg47hm: do you know the PID of the process? youd do:  kill 123407:57
dudedudeoh i dont have a cd in my netbook ..........07:57
macojg47hm: if you dont know the PID, use ps -ef | less     to find it07:57
Dr_Willisdudedude:  the new netbook interface is giving people a lot of hassles. the normal ubuntu desktop should work however.07:58
dudedudeso let me reask peoplez on this channel, anyone here got ubuntu installed on a non cdrom netbook?07:58
dudedudei am talking about the new unr release of course07:58

macowilliand: does your system meet the minimum requirements, such as 384MB RAM?07:59
besogondudedude: I've got eeepc1000 with unr10.10. But previous version was much better in question of speed08:00
macowilliand: also keep in mind that running from a CD is *slloooooooowwwwww* so it may not actually be frozen08:00
spinningcompassdudedude: No, netbooks tend not to have CD-ROM drives. They do, however, have USB ports, and there are CD-ROM drives that come with USB sockets. :)08:00
Bert-hello08:01
Bert-is a vserver supported in maverick 64bits please ?08:01
besogonmaco: Install unr10.04.1 on your netbook.08:01
Bert-unable to found a kernel-vserver :(08:01
macoBert-: no way08:02
macoBert-: woops08:02
macobesogon: no way08:02
besogonmaco: It's the best of ubuntu on this time08:02
macobesogon: why would i want to use that gnome crap?08:02
macoKubuntu Netbook FTW!08:02
xbonesxlooking for a xml notepad equivalent to the xmlnotepad for windows?08:02
besogonmaco: What do you want then? ubuntu is based on gnome. It's official Desktop08:03
dudedudespinningcompass ill stick to my windows 7 then :o08:03
macobesogon: which is why i use Kubuntu08:03
blakkheimyou don't have to use gnome with ubuntu you know08:03
w3can anyone tell me what is  the safest way to access files on a usb hdd on a LAN? would it be using samba or another protocol connecting to a local computer or would it be connecting it to a router with a usb port?08:04

Bert-w3, sshfs ?08:04
macodudedude: unetbootin is the thing for installing une or knr to a netbook08:04
w3Bert-, yes but do i connect it to a pc or a router08:05
macodudedude: you put the une or knr onto a flash drive and install from that to the netbook08:05
Bert-w3, hu ? a router ? I don't know if a router can deal with external storage08:05
macobesogon: why are you telling me to put unr on my netbook anyway? and how did you even know i own a netbook?08:06
Bert-best way is to by a networked storage08:06
macobesogon: it came preinstalled with kubuntu netbook remix, by the way08:06
besogonmaco: use gnome or kde all other for those who know benefits in distortions08:06
w3can anyone tell me if its safer to attach external storage to a router or another pc if i want to access it from another pc on the LAN?08:06
Bert-buy*08:06
macobesogon: kubuntu is ubuntu + kde...08:06
rwwmaco: because he's mad that UNE 10.10 isn't good :\08:06
fabricebonjour08:06
Bert-w3 what is your router ?08:06
rwwmaco: apparently the idea that this is a process failure and not something that can be solved by using 10.04 hasn't occured :\08:07
w3Bert-, some bricked POS that i need to spend money to fix08:07
macobesogon: and kubuntu netbook is simply kde's plasma-netbook UI instead of plasma-desktop or plasma-mobile08:07
Bert-w3, then why don't you buy a nas ?08:08
Bert-one like iomega, you can gain root access (debian inside), then do what you want :)08:09
malachaiSo Im not sure (as I wasnt watching it I was watching myself play MOH) but it (k3b) says closing session 0%, overall progress 100%. Is it done or still closing session?08:09

Guest34533ats it im sick of ubuntu going back to vista my computer running slower now when i had vista on it08:10
Bert-W3, so if you already have a networked PC, just use it  (imho)08:11
malachaiYeah im trying to get a boot cd for windows made so I can go back too.08:11
w3Bert-, yeah but that can be exploited by hackers08:11
Bert-I'm not sure you'll have full access to do what you want on a 'simple' router08:11
Bert-w3, just set correct ACL08:12

malachaiI agree with Guest34533, Linux is nice, but not for what Im trying to use it for. I want to play games and watch movies and shit. Not write programs and whatever else. Windows is a much better OS for what I want. No offense to Linux at all.08:14
Bert-w3, I use a nas storage.  As embedded os is debian, security is the same as having a usb hdd connected to a PC ...08:15
malachaiHell I cant even figure out how to get a damn movie burnt to a disk with ubuntu.08:15
Bert-malachai, I do the same ... Except for some games, unfortunately working only on windows. And that not because of linux, but dev just coding for D3D :)08:16
w3Bert-, i cant $#@%@^ afford NAS ive already spent the money on usb storage08:16
ouyeshi all good afternoon08:16
silv3r_m00nI need to add something to the path environment variable in ubuntu 9.1008:16
silv3r_m00nis it correct to add this line export PATH=${PATH}:/home/matt/android/android-sdk-linux_86/tools  to .bashrc file ?08:16
Bert-w3, I understood. What I mean is security will be the same as using a pc (even a router). YOU have to set correct restrictions :)08:16
malachaiYeah. If I was more pc literate this would be a great OS, but just not for me.08:16

oly562hello people, got a question - i am receiving this error. someone used my box this evening and when i came back, im getting errors after splash/login screen; first one is >>> Could not update ICEauthority file/home/mysuername/.ICEauthority..   and the second after that is  >>>> there is a problem with the configuration server. (/usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited with status 25608:18
Bert-malachai, tried brasero ?08:18
malachaiHmm. I didnt kow there were two seperate actions to it. i bet Ive got 6 or 7 iso's laying around wherever it stores them. I thought it was just throw a disk and convert and burn all in one action.08:19
oly562im usuing gnome, not kde08:19
malachaiI was using devede08:19
Bert-oly562, check your perms08:19
Dr_Willismalachai:  devede generates the iso. you then burn. thats how it works..08:19
oly562Bert-: yah, which ones?08:19
malachaiI see08:19
Dr_Willismalachai:  theres really no need for a video converter to also be a burner. :) theres burner apps for that.08:19
malachaiany idea where the default storage is for those iso's?08:20
oly562also, i have to use ecryptfs to mount my priv /home/dir08:20
Dr_Willismalachai:  i also test the iso files in vlc befor i burn them.08:20
Bert-if it is your homedir, then just chown -R your_user: /your/home/dir08:20
bullgard4oly562: I recommend that you use more precise wording in your question. I am not inclined to answer to such a fuzzy question.08:20
oly562Bert-: once i mount it, i then can access /home/dir08:20
AkivaHey, Just installed ubuntu, the grub went fine, it detects all the os's, and mac will boot up fine, but windows says it cannot boot, and suggests me to use the install disk. Is this a matter of just editing my grub 2? I dont want to find mbr set as default when I boot up08:20
Bert-haaaaaa ok08:21
Dr_Willismalachai:  k9copy is also  a very handy tool.08:21
Bert-oly562, so your problem is : your crypted homedir not automatically mounted anymore ?08:21

AlanMetaDr_Willis ok is eBox supported on 9.04?09:04
luckydogcan i get some help getting ubuntu to run from my flashdrive?09:04
rwwAlanMeta: some things to consider 1) Ubuntu 9.04 is no longer receiving security updates, as of yesterday. 2) Webmin is explicitly not supported by Ubuntu. 3) ebox recently switched to a split paid/free model, which concerns some of its community members.09:04
=== tm3 is now known as tylermolamphy2
Dr_WillisAlanMeta:  no idea. I dont use ebox..09:05
Dr_Willis!ebox09:05
ubottuebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox09:05
rwwI note that (1) means it's not supported in this channel, and that you really should upgrade.09:05
Dr_WillisAlanMeta:  webmin is totally ubsupported by ubuntu these days09:05
Dr_Willis!webmin09:05
ubottuwebmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system.09:05
luckydogcan anyone help me to get ubuntu to run from a flashdrive?09:06

horsenounawaywill do11:17

amartinikonia, similar problem I did get when installed from repo. Can do that if You like?11:39
ikoniaamartin: it's tool late, your nvidia.com modules will have overrode the config11:39

r1k0is there a way I can install ubuntu and set the driver display (during install) to vesa to that when I reboot I get a decent visual (to then configure the xdriver to nvidia)? I ask because I have sony vaio vpcz13m9e/b (dual GPU intel/nvidia) and after the first reboot (which sets xdriver to intel) I get a black screen and can't do a thing.12:26
rigvedi have noticed that downloads are slower under transmission than under uTorrent12:26
rigvedis there some specific reason for this?12:26
frostbyt3MichealH, this is on topic. OsamaK, you mean it's not open source - it's certainly free. if it were doing anything devious, we would know. it's an incredibly small, efficient C program, and you can inspect it's sockets - they're all legit12:26
hardfireis there any other way to add repo other than add-apt-repository command12:26

hackhardfire: well just enter the ppa source into the field that apears when you klick on add12:43

SudeI'm studying English.thank you. It's very hard13:06
lidbjorkIf I wanna use the TV out (svideo) on my Nvidia card, what do I need to do? (ubuntu 10.04.1)13:06
lidbjorkI've checked some forum threads, but they're all pretty old (2007-2008)13:07
ikonialidbjork: pretty old doesn't mean wrong13:07
LjLSude: have you tried the channel ##english? it is quite good.13:07
rookslidbjork, i think you have to use nvidia control panel that ships with nvidias proprietary driver13:07
lidbjorkrooks: Ok.13:08

lidbjorkrooks: Oh, that's interesting13:09
Leman_Russanyone got a ps3 controller working with ubuntu13:09
Leman_Russ?13:09
YoungGUNany ideas?13:09
rookslidbjork, yup, i solved some graphics driver issues myself by using ati's control panel :)13:10
ikoniaYoungGUN: looks like your image is inavlid13:10
ikoniainvalid13:10
YoungGUNwhat could cause it?13:10

YoungGUNive written the image multipletimes13:10
alorpw!open office13:10
alorpwWhat is the open office freenode channel?13:11
lidbjorkrooks: Just a basic question -- will I have to install some nvidia drivers before I use this nvidia-settings app, or am I perhaps already using nvidia drivers by default?13:11
rookslidbjork, since i have ati and not nvidia :)13:11
alorpwI found it, #openoffice.org. for those who don't know.13:11
rookslidbjork, system → administration → additional drivers / hardware drivers13:12
YoungGUNikonia could it be my bootup settings?13:12
ikoniaYoungGUN: what bootup settings?13:13
lidbjorkrooks: Yes, I tried that. It says "no proprietary drivers are in use on this system" and then shows a small list of nvidia drivers to install. It doest't, however, show what drivers I AM using at the moment.13:14
YoungGUNmy bios13:14
YoungGUNits booting usb stick first :x13:14
YoungGUNso im not sure why it shows a linux ebios screen and doesnt go anywhere13:14
ikoniaYoungGUN: because the media it's booting from is not correct13:14
lidbjorkrooks: But I guess I should go ahead and try to install them.13:14
rookslidbjork, i thin youre using opensource nvidia drivers by default13:14
alorpwDoes someone know why when I insert an epsilone formula my open office document is garbage instead of that epsilon?13:15
alorpwI tried openoffice but they don't answer.13:15
hhlphi! i have my home partion in 84%, how i know what file or direcotry are using this space i konw it is an aplication but now i don't remember the name thx13:15
YoungGUNikonia so what do you suggest i do?13:15
GrimmVarghey is there a way to get macbook pro running 10.10 to accept the fact that i have two fingers? #thouchpad #drag&drop :D13:15
lidbjorkrooks: Ok, yeah, that would make sense. But I guess I can't use the nvidia-settings panel with the open source drivers.13:15
ikoniaYoungGUN: investigate why your usb image is not correct13:15
YoungGUNwell what could cause it? its my first time trying to dual boot :x 9.10 created a image perfectly13:16
YoungGUNand booted first time :X13:16
rookslidbjork, its only on proprietary drivers, have you btw tried system → preferences → monitors , when you rebooted your computer with tvout cable attached to your computer?13:16
YoungGUNi figured id give 10.10 and go and ive written it 3 times with 2 different sticks13:16
ikoniaYoungGUN: it's nothing to do with dual boot13:16
ikoniaYoungGUN: ahhh hang on13:16
ikoniaYoungGUN: there is a known bug with 10.10 images13:16
EmilianopHi all13:16
YoungGUNahhhh so 10.10 wont boot from stick13:17
Marcus_JahEmilianop, hi13:17
lidbjorkrooks: Yes, I've tried that with no luck, no response at all from the tv13:17
Emilianophi marcus_iah13:17
ikoniaYoungGUN: hang on13:17
YoungGUNso i should just stick with 9.10 until 10.10 is fixed ikonia?13:17
ikoniaYoungGUN: what OS are you using to make the usb stick13:17
Emilianopdoes anybody use sky2 module, for marvell network with success?13:17
YoungGUNkk ;)13:17
rookslidbjork, hmm. sucks, i guess only way out is to install proprietary drivers and mangle with nvidia control panel13:18
YoungGUNwin713:18
ikoniaYoungGUN: that's the problem,13:18
ikoniaYoungGUN: ooh, win 713:18
ikoniaYoungGUN: what tool are you using to make the stick ?13:18
YoungGUNusb-creator.exe13:18
samnio1987who use win7 ?13:19
ikoniaYoungGUN: no idea about that tool, ask the guys in ##windows13:19
ikoniaYoungGUN: there is a bug with usb-creator on 9.10 and 10.04 making 10.10 images, but that's not your problem13:19
YoungGUNformatted sticks to fat3213:19
lidbjorkrooks: Ok, I'll try.13:19
X-Sleepy-XYoungGUN: Perhaps you could try with UNetbootin13:20
YoungGUNikonia its the tool that comes with ubuntu13:20
TryptychHi Folks, before I even try this, will WUBI work on the RAID0 that my windows lives on? Anyone aware of issues with WUBI+RAID ?13:20
YoungGUNyeah i saw that as an alternative13:20
Tryptych(hardware raid)13:20
YoungGUNdoes it have the same bugs though X-Sleepy-X13:20
X-Sleepy-XYoungGUN: Don't know.13:20
ikoniaYoungGUN: a windows 7 application comes with ubuntu ?13:20
YoungGUNyessir ikonia ;P13:20
ikoniaYoungGUN: how can that be ?13:20
YoungGUNmount iso, explorer iso, and bam usb-creator.exe13:20
YoungGUNi dunnoo :P they realize people are trying to do what i am doing13:21
YoungGUNand want to go to ubuntu and dont have cd's laying around13:21
ikoniaYoungGUN: ooh, you mean on the actual CD13:21
ikoniaYoungGUN: http://www.linuxliveusb.com/13:21
YoungGUNwell yeah :P sorry should of clarified that:P13:21
Martin``I'll have better luck in a wine channel or something, bye.13:21
ikoniaYoungGUN: download the later version13:21
lidbjorkrooks: I was thinking about making a backup of my xorg.conf, but I can't find it anywhere. (Looked in /etc/X11, /etc, and other places)13:22
memeticI forget, what's the command used to change the version of glibc you use to compile programs?13:22
KrummiAfter activating compiz my keyboard shortcuts dont work (like alt+F2). How do I fix this?13:23
YoungGUNnow dont shoot the noob here, i know ubuntu is linux, so will this create a ubuntu image or an alternative linux os?13:23
ikoniamemetic: you should not have multiple versions of glibc on your machine13:23
ikoniaYoungGUN: ubuntu13:23
jellyjellyanyone have a system76 lemur?13:24
Marcus_Jahlidaobing, generate the file xorg.conf service gdm stop ; Xorg -configure ; service gdm start13:24
YoungGUNthanks ikonia ;) let me give this ago13:24
rookslidbjork, by default there is no xorg, all is autoconfigured, an i think control pnel will make backups, tho im not sure13:24
YoungGUNholy fuck its raining like a river outside13:24
ikoniaYoungGUN: drop the language13:24
ikoniaYoungGUN: it's a support channel we don't care about the weather and that language is not welcome13:24
ikoniaYoungGUN: no-one is talking to you like that, so don't talk to the channel like that13:24
YoungGUN:X language is just vibrations of the throat though :( its just words, how can a word be "bad"13:25
YoungGUNits like me saying the word cat is bad, because i "say so"13:25
jellyjelly:/13:26
YoungGUNim not trying to argue, just a simple debate.13:26

Marcus_JahoO13:26
TryptychAnyone here tried using WUBI on raid array?13:26
ikoniaTryptych: shouldn't matter as the hostos (windows) can control the raid ok13:27
lidbjorkrooks: Ok13:27
memeticikonia: sorry.. brainfart.  I mean the default version of gcc used to compile programs.  I had to change it to use 4.4, but I think I need to use 4.3.13:27
Tryptychok thanks13:27
memeticThe reason being that when I update, reboot, I have to rebuild my nvidia drivers.  The process informs me that the gcc used to compile my kernel and the one being used to compile the driver differ13:28
ikoniamemetic: use PATH, or CC=/usr/bin/gcc-4.313:29
sophiaIs it possible to forward Windows Applications to Ubuntu using xming and putty13:29
miasmahas anyone managed to print to a ubuntu/cups server with a windows vista/7 client?13:30

arti12can someone tell me how to delete ore format particoins with VMFS file system,this is my fdisk -l report13:36

s3my0nAnyone managed to install python 2.7 on ubuntu 10.04?13:37
she_dyedintelminer: the Xorg.log (in /var/logs ) might show severe EE errors13:38
ikoniamemetic: normally your personal environment (.bashrc) that you use to set it13:38
maedhros777anyone know why OpenGL causes segfaults?13:38
miasmaah, managed to install the printer. it seems windows is 110% unable to discover cups printers13:38

dattacan anyone tell me how i can disable opendns? i cannot go to the sites i have to because of opendns and even though i have revoked the settings, it does not fix the problem13:40
miasmashe_dyed: but the auto-discovery doesn't work13:40
she_dyedok nice well done miasma13:40
miasmashe_dyed: all linux clients discover the printers automatically13:40
memeticikonia: Hmm.  Is there a proper way to gcc -v and get 4.3 instead of 4.4 that doesn't involve symlinks?  I ask because I swear someone told me to use some program where I went in and picked the version of GCC to use and it did everything else for me in Ubuntu.  Now I can't remember how to undo it.13:40
ikoniamemetic: set your path correctly,13:41
she_dyedmiasma: think of that "OS" ignoring linux' existence13:41
ikoniamemetic: update-alternatives ?13:41
dattamy internet is really slow for that reason and i cannot do anything i needed with the internet13:41

ubuXubuwubi does offr the choice at 1st boot, but its all eye candy because it is not on its own partition and it in fact installs as a windows files and can be removed like any other windows file.14:42

ed_cloversg: Make a partition on one of your hdds.  Edit your /etc/fstab on the usb drive to mount that partition as /home.15:11
cloversgravimaddula, no i don't thinks o15:11
izinucsKai696: that could be the hidden partition containing the image file of windows the system uses to restore windows after a failure.....15:11
ed_cloversg: Because of the way that Ubuntu saves things you do everything should be preserved.15:11
utilitytrackcloversg: I not see any problems. Copy configs and enjoy :))15:11
cloversged_ not so much the /home, but how about /etc and /var15:11

trzugaros, thank you. So I'll just flip a coin then.15:13

rigvedcars10: i tried the same commands in my qemu-ubuntu server, they seem to be working15:13

vigge_sWeyeah I tried the utility15:23
ElNotatrzu: Ubuntu is like Debian but easier, anyways it's your choice, but honestly, I prefer Ubuntu15:24
ka1servigge_sWe: you could play around with 'find' command15:24
utilitytracktrzu: I recommend strongly Debian stable. Because it's very stable software.15:24
vigge_sWeunfortunately it seems broken15:24

vigge_sWeit says / is only 7GB15:24

meatbunchmod, ok. it says i have ii  libapache2-mod-php5                  5.3.2-1ubuntu4.2                                server-side15:24
arrrghhhtrzu, that's the tradeoff.  debian = more stable, but older software.  ubuntu = more friendly, newer software - but bleeding edge is called that for a reason ;)15:24
vigge_sWealso, when I take properties on the filesystem, it says it's 128TB15:24
meatbunchmod, but why it said "5.3.2-1ubuntu4.2 is to be installed"15:25
trzuThank you for your reccommendations utilitytrack and EINota. I'll use debian then, because I only need tar, MediaTomb and Samba and that's available for debian-stable.15:25
utilitytracktrzu: try Debian 5.0.6 if you wish set up good server15:25
vigge_sWeI can at least take screenshots now15:25
xanguatrzu: well this isn't, arrrghhh bleeding edge¿ he could use LTS15:25

chmodmeatbun, it is a depends for 5.3.-1ubuntu4 - the new/replacement is 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.215:27
revberaldoikonia: it is separated15:27
arrrghhhElNota, Ubuntu is built on Debian so that would make sense :P15:27
ikoniarevberaldo: then you have nothing to worry about the encypted partition is nothing to do with your ubuntu install15:28
vakhi all15:28
meatbunchmod, i dpkg -l |php says i have 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.2  , yet i stilll can't install it. why?15:28
chmodtry; sudo apt-get -f install15:28
scotty^_OK, I've filed fdo bug 31078 regarding the problem I was talking about earlier.15:29
gee0so anyone else experience lock ups after installing nvidia-current drivers on their netbook?15:29
vakmy google-chrome gives no notification sound when google chat receives an incoming message15:29
Kai696meatbun did you check your software center to see what you have so far ?15:29
revberaldoikonia: but I want to use it as my /home partition. I'm thinking about installing Ubuntu ignoring this partition, then edit /etc/crypttab and so on15:29
ka1serrevberaldo: create another partition for home, and another partition for root... keep them separate from whatever you use for Arch... your Ubuntu doesnt need to even know the others exist...15:29
vakAnyone has the same issue with notification?15:29
meatbunKai696, no. where is software center?15:29
utilitytrackElNota: No, yor make mistake, because it's Ubuntu is derivative of Debian but not vice versa. Also, apps in Debian are not old, but very stable.15:29
ikoniarevberaldo: mount it after the install15:29

revberaldoikonia, ka1ser: thank you for the answers, I see what I can do.15:30
meatbunKai696, the GUI software center is not as detail as cli15:30
ikoniaKai696: /dev/sda3 is a device not a file system15:30
ikoniaKai696: you can't write to a device like that, you need to mount the device and write to the file system15:31
Kai696ikonia, sorry for being a noob :P how do I do that ?15:31
ikoniaKai696: explain what you are trying to do15:31
rigvedutilitytrack: it's not that the apps are old, but they are just different, not the popular ones which everyone uses these days15:31
gee0so its safe to assume theres no optimus support on any version of linux as of yet?15:31
Kai696copy and entire disk drive and put it on a partition that I have set up @ Ikonia15:31
Kai696(as an image file)15:32
rigvedutilitytrack: like there is no firefox15:32
ikoniaKai696: is the partition bigger than the whole disk you want to backup15:32
Kai696no, 500GB for disk and 600 GB for partition15:32
ikoniaKai696: so yes, the partition IS bigger than the entire disk15:32
arrrghhhrigved, it's just rebranded as 'iceweasel'...15:32
ElNotarigved: Right, it's icecat, isn't it?15:32
scotty^_Debian has renamed Firefox to  Iceweasel due to licencing issues15:33
Crewsr3I just installed 10.10 and I'm setting up empathy with my chat accounts and I cannot get yahoo to work.  I'm getting an authentication failed error.  Using the same sign-in information I can sign in using Meebo.  Is there a particular setting I'm over looking?15:33
Kai696ikonia, yes, so there shouldn't be a problem. I'm going disk to partition, not partition to disk15:33
ikoniascotty^_: no it's not15:33
ikoniascotty^_: iceweale is slightly different15:33
rigvedoh, ok15:33

ikoniaKai696: block size15:34
arrrghhhelgh, you have to be running the non-free edition of VB.  the ones in the repo are completely free, OSS and they do not have usb or rdp support.15:34
scotty^_ikonia - Thanks.  I didn't know that.  How is it different?  (Or where can I read about the differences?)15:34

scotty^_sobczyk - I think koffice has flowcharting program15:36
ka1serhmm I think it is less risker to send it to a file than directly to the partition15:36
ikoniashe_dyed: 500GB - maybe15:36
ikoniaka1ser: I don't disagree15:36
ikoniaka1ser: but I also see neither as a risk, just one slightly tidier15:36
Kai696ikonia,  what should the output file be like ? an image? just a hard transfer or ? and how do I reset the backed up drive? (restore it back to normal once the disk is restored)15:36
elghUpgrading to 10.10 solved the problem of using USB Devices in VirtualBox. ^15:36
ka1serlol @ she_dyed15:36
ikoniaka1ser: not an image, it's a direct block by block copy on the partiion /dev/sda315:36
ikoniaka1ser: sorry - not you15:36
LicuadoraI am no expert, but I think this has something to do with me having a DUMMY OUTPUT :          http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/dX145TKH15:37

Cars10rigved i think it does15:37
rigvedi have 10.04 and the virtualbox only supports x86 arch15:37
arrrghhhrigved, your host os has to be 64-bit unless your chip supports hw virtualzation.15:37
LicuadoraCan some one tell me What to do?15:37
ikoniaKai696: sudo dd if=/dev/sda3 of=/dev/where_you_want_it bs=512k15:37
Kai696so if I made /sda3 bootable it should load ?15:37
ikoniaKai696: no15:37
rigvedCars10: ok15:38
arrrghhhrigved, you can run x64 on 10.04... you just need what i said.15:38

Yankefishi have a raedon 7000 old school video cpu im trying to set up for my kids15:38
rigvedarrrghhh: what do i need15:39
ikoniaKai696: because it's a block by block copy which references it identically as if it was /dev/sdd - and it is not /dev/sdd, its a different disk, with different sizing, different naming15:39
ikoniaKai696: it's also a partition, not a disk, you boot the mbr on a disk, not a partition15:39
Yankefishwhen i go to enable desktop effects i get an error15:39
rigvedarrrghhh: i have an x64 OS15:39
arrrghhhrigved, i forget the terms.  amd is like hyper-V and intel is something else...  is your host OS not 64-bit?  then you should be fine...15:39
Kai696oh, >< hahah sorry your right IKonia :) Thanks a lot..15:39

elgharrrghhh, I created a folder in my home folder, and added that in settings for VirtualBox... Then what? ^15:45
scotty^_Yankefish - with a recent version of Ubuntu you shouldn't have to worry about anything on that page - the free ati driver should be installed and configured by default.  But I think you can't run compiz (desktop effects) on a card that old.15:46
arrrghhhelgh, some googling will ensue, i've never done it.  just know that's what you need to do, short of setting up samba :P15:46

osmosiseverything I saw on the web about swappiness says lower value means minimal swapping. So I changed my swappiness from 60 to 10. And now I can see on the graphs that a huge swap_cache and way more swap file is in use. I was trying to turn off swapping because whenever linux starts doing random unimportant stuff with the swap file, it messes up my IO throughput. Helpful suggestions appreciated!15:48

Cars10yeah but it wont16:29
dargChaos: it depends on your filesystem mostly16:29
id10tChaos2358, and temp files would be in /tmp and handle themselves, adn temporary update files are dealt wtih via "apt-get clean"16:29

pilatesllutz, how are you able to see it ?16:30
arrrghhhChaos2358, what's the problem?  are you out of space on /?16:30
pilatesbecause there only are sda's in the list ?16:30

RyzyANy one know any thing about wacom tablets?16:31
llutzpilates: it would have been listed as additional drive (sdb/sdc...).16:31
arrrghhhSingAlong, that's pretty vague.  my laptop heats up like crazy, but it's not ubuntu's fault.16:31
Chaos2358arrrghhh no not out of space but being installing and trying alot of different apps and such then deleting, alot of updates etc i'm used to running a defrag every other week on widows but since i switched to lucid dont know how16:32
pilatesllutz,  ok appreceite your help.. thank you16:32
arrrghhhChaos2358, i thought this at first as well.  ext file systems (others as well) don't fragment like Windows file systems do.16:32
llutzpilates: 1st time it was at least recognized as disk "[  946.026002] sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk", 2nd time it was ignored. so my _guess_ is, its somehow broken16:32

StavaI'm trying to install Skype, and this page (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype) says I can do it with a simple apt-get install. However, I get an error saying "Package skype is not available, but is referred to by another package.", does this mean that I need to download and install it from Skypes website instead? Or is there a repository that I can add?16:33

UpAllNightBrainWhats a good IDENT server to install?  Do they have a good safety track record?16:33

arrrghhhChaos2358, so they don't need to be defragmented - they clean up after themselves on the fly.16:33

c3I dont know if im in the right channel, is this the help channel? or is there a dedicated one?16:33

SingAlongarrrghhh: wow. a large number of people seem to be having heating problems with toshiba m505. google says so16:33
arrrghhhSingAlong, does google have any solutions? :P  perhaps there is a bug in a particular kernel.16:34
Chaos2358sorry for bad typing. have tree brok efingers16:34
llutzpilates: "to cd to the stick" you need it to be recognized as a drive and to mount it. both failed in your case16:34

Cajun_Lan_Manthe first google hit I get on the m505 heat issue is a link to the Ubuntu forums.  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=128216116:36

c3I want to share my music on the web, create usernames and passwords for certain users to connect to it. is there a simple webserver for ubuntu that does the job16:36
c3guntbert thank you.16:36
arrrghhhSingAlong, c'est la vie.16:37
guntbertc3: usually people use apache16:37
arrrghhhc3, you can setup apache but that's going to take a lot of configuration... ftp may be easier with multiple users/passwords.16:37
SingAlongarrrghhh: its a kernel bug as to one of the threads16:37
arrrghhhSingAlong, sounds about right.  are you on 10.10?16:37
rigelhi, i'm not sure what support channel is most appropriate for this, but i keep having problems authenticating to my school's IIS webserver. It appears to not be a problem with ubuntu specifically, because it happens (i log in, but it redirects me to login again) on windows as well as other browsers. i've rebooted my router etc, but that hasnt helped.16:38
guntbertc3: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP16:38
c3guntbert, I know apache is an option. but as you said, its really complicated. is there some sort of software that archives the music and puts them on the web,,16:38
ikoniarigel: nothing to do with here then, talk to your school16:38
guntbertc3: I really don't know, never tried it - please put your question to the channel again16:39
rigelikonia: they didnt sound like they were getting a lot of help requests, so i'm assuming the problem is on my segment of the network16:39
ikoniarigel: give them a nudge then16:39
arrrghhhc3, subsonic, jinzora... ampache16:39

Cajun_Lan_ManHP seems to be big on Linux support.16:41
arrrghhhjosemota, you can, but it's best to backup & do a clean install.16:41

arrrghhhCajun_Lan_Man, can't comment on that.  all i know is my hp all-in-one lives on linux just fine.  other printers do as well, but i definitely recommend hp.16:42
arrrghhhc3, i think they all allow downloads as well as streaming...16:43

josemotashe_dyed arrrghhh: thank you so much.16:43
Cajun_Lan_Manarrrghhh, Did you install any software to use with the HPs, or did you just let Linux do its thing automagically?16:43

Cajun_Lan_Manarrrghhh, Got it.  I likely won't be getting a multifunction.  I like color lasers because I've got 3 kids in school who like to print......a lot.    Too much $$$ for inkjet, but the color laser multi's are expensive.16:45
llutzcrunch2: usually its a /dev/rfcomm*16:45
arrrghhhCajun_Lan_Man, color laser anything's expensive ;)16:45
Cajun_Lan_Manarrrghhh, HP has a little low end color laser for $200.  Might just get that.16:45
v_vcrunch2, maybe you can grep output of dmesg16:45
crunch2  llutz: hum, im looking for it in a terminal bu it's not there16:46
arrrghhhCajun_Lan_Man, dang.  we get enterprise network printers for work, they're so expensive.  haven't looked at consumer laser printers in years tho...16:46
Cajun_Lan_Manarrrghhh, but when it comes to cost per page, the color lasers are much cheaper than the inkjets.  My kids LOVE to do projects that require printing out color stuff from the web.16:46
Cajun_Lan_Manarrrghhh, the consumer stuff is much cheaper.  It just falls apart when you throw enterprise workloads at them.16:47

avoDiamondcite, I assumed that functionality was standard, too.17:38

marsfligthSince few weeks I hear a strange background rustling like a couple of moses that bite something. Obviously, this happens when I am in the total silence with only my computer on. After few tests I discovered that if I switch-off the sound from the Gnome panel using the command "Mute All", the "mouses bite sound" it disappears. Than, now I know for sure that is a problem of the default Ubuntu sound manager, but I can't17:40
marsfligthunderstand how to fix it. Does someone experienced the same problem? I tried to search over the net, but using keywords like "mouses and bite" you imagine what I get ;) Just for informations, I use Ubuntu 10.04 - 32 bit - English on a desktop PC. Thanks17:40

arrrghhhmarsfligth, uhm... what?  just hit alt-f2 and type 'gnome-terminal' - then in the new black window type 'alsamixer' and turn down stuff you don't need.17:43
YGoh ok thanks17:43
guntbertAngelov: NICs retain their MAC addresses anyway, you need not set them any time17:43
arrrghhhYG, are you having WAN or LAN bandwidth issues?17:43
corrytonappleYG: I think you can call them and tell them what you want. But, I also think it takes some time for them to move the speed up/17:44

arrrghhhcorrytonapple, if your modem can handle it they can upgrade you almost immediately.  just a payload that's sent to the modem.17:44

tensorpuddinghappyface: you need to start a VNC server on port 5900, then on the client side, you use ssh/putty to do a tunnel binding remote 5900 to local 5900, and then run your vnc client on localhost17:47

Diamondcitehardfire: Where are you trying to download the keys from?17:47
Angelovguntbert:Coz if I dont change it with the one of my Cable modem I cant use internet17:47
Kai696Diamondcite > winHQ (appdb) says it should run fine btw17:47
tensorpuddinghappyface: though if you want VNC over SSH, it might be nicer to use NX instead of VNC, since it uses SSH without any other work17:47
hardfireinitially  i used the add-apt-repository command17:48
AngelovThe MAC address I have for the eth0 is not the same with the one of the Cable modem17:48
DiamondciteKai696: So put "wine" before the executable and run it?17:48
hardfirethen again used apt-key command changing the --keyserver17:48
happyfacetensorpudding: yea I've used NX in the past, but it takes a lot of setup and I need to give support like NOW17:48

cousteauok, this might be a bug. I install ubuntu-desktop with the option --no-recommends. Then, I install a program from ubuntu-desktop (say, empathy). This drags in a lot of dependencies. Then I uninstall empathy, and none of the dependencies are uninstalled, since they're recommended by ubuntu-desktop (even if ubuntu-desktop was installed with --no-recommends).18:12

ubottuLTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. The current LTS version of Ubuntu is !Lucid (Lucid Lynx 10.04)19:00

vigge_sWeSo any reason why you cannot move files across timezones?19:35
vigge_sWeI live in Sweden but the server is in the US19:35
AxidentJordan_U: It simply find the bin file used for starting the game19:35
Jordan_UAxident: Replace the whole thing with this and you'll get the same result: VAR=~/*/bin/hacker-evolution19:35

Jordan_UAxident: The only thing that find is doing the way you're using it is printing the filename you passed to it, which is pointless.19:36

dr4c4n_hi, has anyone experienced all windows crashing, and loss of menu, change of icons to names with only boxes on maverick?19:38
Jordan_UAxident: "don't want to get an output"?19:38
kai696_(/media/xrom)19:38

kai696_how can I find out my dvd drive  name?19:38
ActionParsnipkai696_: sudo lshw -C drive19:39
dr4c4n_btw the mouse still moves and all we can see is the desktop and the icons have changed with the names now replaced by a series of boxes19:39
kfmI've having a hard time getting vnc to work...when I ssh to the ubuntu machine and then do "vncviewer localhost"  it only shows me an x window of a shell, not the normal desktop19:39
Orfeoushey!19:39

qorepwhat's the best channel if I want help with ubuntu-one?19:40
ActionParsnipkai696_: cd $HOME ,first. If your pwd is in the mount point then it is 'busy'19:40
Jordan_UAxident: Replace line 3 with this and you will get *exactly* the same result: VAR=~/*/bin/hacker-evolution19:40
yassinehi folks19:40
ActionParsnipkai696_: or try: sudo lshw -C disk19:40
kai696_ /dev/cdrom <--19:41
ActionParsnipkai696_: you can use: sudo eject /dev/sr0 ,assuming sr0 is its name, you may have to force umount the disk if the OS still thinks its mounted19:41
kai696_:) that works perfectly, thanks ActionParsnip19:41

she_dyeddisappearedng: is that a live CD run?19:48

Trecan you tell me who is the best browser for ubuntu ?19:50

LunaVoraxHi everyone19:58
sebikulanygivenname, go to applications, accesories, passwords (or something like that, i have it in spanish) and let me know when you are there19:59
LunaVoraxIn terms of ram used, should I use Fluxbox or Openbox if I want a WM that doesn't suck a lot of ram ?19:59
sresuKernel Log- vlc[3358]segfault at 4 ip 00662e26 sp bfc83620 error 4 in libQtDBus.so.4.7.0[61e000+7a000] Anything wrong?19:59
anygivennamesebikul: ok there19:59
ZykoticK9LunaVorax, i doubt there is "much" difference between any of the *box WMs19:59
SomelauwIs there a beatiful way to show my partitions and what they are used for (gnome)?20:00
sebikulanygivenname, do a right click on default password deposit and select change password20:00
LunaVoraxThat's what I was thinking also ZykoticK9 thanks20:00
aeon-ltdSomelauw: gparted?20:00
LunaVoraxDoes anyone here use dwm ?20:00
=== mlazzari2_ is now known as mlazzari2
anygivennamesebikul: ok then20:00
anygivennamesebikul: keep it blank ?20:01
nobarkinghey where should i store my executables after i've compiled from source? i usually put them in ~/bin with reference in .bashrc is this a good directory to store them in?20:01
=== Holden is now known as Guest36521
aeon-ltdLunaVorax: yeah20:01
sebikulanygivenname, in old password enter your normal root pass, in new password leave it blank. READ CAREFULLY THE MESSAGE and continue20:01
Trecan someone tell me a rar extrator for ubuntu ?20:01
anygivennamesebikul: if I do so then my system will be insecured20:01
aeon-ltdTre: unrar20:01
sresuDoes it mean some bug in vlc / QTdbus def not critical?20:02
sebikulanygivenname, not your system, just the passwords stored under that deposit20:02
aeon-ltdTre: its command line though20:02
ZykoticK9nobarking, /usr/local/bin would be preferred to just /bin (which you should consider leaving for only "system" binaries)20:02
Tresudo apt-get install unrar20:02
Trethank you20:02
sebikulthey wont be encrypted, but they would still need your login password20:02
ZykoticK9nobarking, sorry - you said ~/bin - my bad20:02
SuttraratHey, I'm new to Ubuntu, coming over from WinXP, what's the best AV program for me to start using? I have asked on #antivirus but it's a bit quiet20:03
Treyou don t need antivirus20:03
ZykoticK9!virus | Suttrarat20:03
ubottuSuttrarat: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus20:03
Treon ubuntu bro20:03
LunaVoraxSuttrarat, ClamAV, but you don't need AV20:03
ActionParsnipSuttrarat: there is no single best app for anything20:03
ActionParsnipSuttrarat: there is no single best anything ever20:03
aeon-ltdStrangeCharm: you don't neccessarily need a AV but one i nice (maybe clamAV) but a firewall is crucial to security20:03
sresuSuttrarat: And no defrag things20:04
sresu!defrag20:04
ubottuThe default Ubuntu filesystem (ext4) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this.20:04
aeon-ltdLunaVorax: why do you wanna know if anyone uses dwm?20:04
anygivennamesebikul: under that deposit...there is vino.local, hotmail, Desktop Couch User Authentication, gmail, Desktop Couch User Authentication, another form of gmail20:04
LunaVoraxaeon-ltd, I wanted to know if it was complex to learn for a noob and how much ram it was sucking20:04
aeon-ltdStrangeCharm: sorry wrong person20:04
SuttraratThanks guys, I will be using WINE a bit so I was thinking AV might be necessary,20:05
nobarkingZykoticK9: what persmissions should i set in /usr/local/bin?20:05
nobarkingpermissions*20:05
LunaVoraxI'm on a 128ram computer, I need to tweak my ubuntu install correctly20:05
AxidentJordan_U: I tryed to use the variable without the find as you suggested. Unfortunately it's only give me the name for the bin file not the complete path to the bin file as I have to use.20:05
ActionParsnipLunaVorax: I suggest openbox on 128mb ram20:05
ZykoticK9nobarking, i can't really answer that...  depends...20:05
sebikulanygivenname, that are passwords stored by other applications. you should only leave the password blank if you think you are still safe (a desktop pc for example)20:05
Ward|ActionParsnip, the HP printed a testpage perfectly but i still cannot print anything20:06
ActionParsnipLunaVorax: or for supreme lightness (but not pretty at all) flwm20:06
Jordan_UAxident: Can you pastebin the current script?20:06
aeon-ltdLunaVorax: ok, its not that comlpex to get it running, but maintain it is hard, everytime you want to change something it require recompiling dwm, also i'm using 53mb ram - 2 terminals (urxvt one in irssi and htop) with dwm20:06
LunaVoraxActionParsnip, I would prefer to use Fluxbox since the menu is automatic while it's not on Openbox20:06
anygivennamesebikul: so it does not delete the Ubuntu login password ?20:06
ActionParsnipWard|: what apps have you tried?20:06
AxidentJordan_U:20:06
BEAST_MODEoR20:06
AxidentJordan_U: yes20:06
ActionParsnipLunaVorax: another good choice :)20:06
sebikulanygivenname, no, that are 2 different things20:06
Ward|ActionParsnip, gedit and firefox20:06
anygivennamesebikul: can I delete the whole deposit ?20:06
LunaVoraxOk then ActionParsnip :)20:06
sebikulyou will still conserve your login password, but you wont be asked to enter it twice20:07
Guest55213hey how can wipe my sdd drive through terminal? (format as FAT32)20:07
AxidentJordan_U: http://pastebin.com/a2CP3BC320:07
ActionParsnipWard|: tried openoffice? Do you get anyonscreen info?20:07
sebikulanygivenname, you can delete it, but the system will create it again20:07
ActionParsnipGuest55213: look at mk2fs.vfat20:07
LunaVoraxYeah I know about it aeon-ltd20:07
Ward|ActionParsnip, yeah i get the crapmessages20:07
KadgarHas anyone ever installed ubuntu 10.10 on a external hard drive with a macbook pro 4.1? I have tried so many different things to get this to work and I know am close to believing it isn't possible...20:07
LunaVoraxKadgar, I've done that once20:08
anygivennamesebikul: can I delete the whole deposit ?20:08
aeon-ltdLunaVorax: the ram indications aren't fair though, i'm on arch linux not ubuntu currently20:08
sebikulanygivenname, you can delete it, but the system will create it again20:08
LunaVoraxKadgar, but I had to boot everytume with the SuperGrubDisk20:08
Jibadeehawish windowmaker would pick up again20:08
Kadgarhmm...20:08
ActionParsnipWard|: if you look in the queue are the jobs there?20:08
Jordan_UAxident: That should give you the full path. What makes you think it isn't?20:08
anygivennamesebikul: ok now...password is blank...will it remain so after restart Ubuntu ?20:08
LunaVoraxOh ok aeon-ltd. Funny it is, I've seem a lot of dwm user be actually ArchLinux users20:08
Kadgarcould you tell me exactly what you did? I really want to get this to work.20:09
sebikulanygivenname, yeah, thats the point of leaving it blank, to not be asked to enter the deposit's password to unlock it and be able to retrive the wifi pass20:09
Axidentafter creation of the desktop file the entry only have the bin file name.20:09
LunaVoraxKadgar, just plug in your external HDD, boot Ubuntu CD, Install Ubuntu on external HDD and then boot the SuperGrubDisk while the HDD is plugged in everytime you turn on your Macbook and want to boot from the hdd20:10
aeon-ltdLunaVorax: heh true, its a bit easier to maintain than in ubuntu, given arch's nature of having to compile almost every unpopular package20:10
AxidentJordan_U: after creation of the desktop file the entry only have the bin file name.20:10
anygivennamesebikul: thanks...will restart to test20:10
Ward|ActionParsnip, yeah, but i will stop wasting time and accept that linux cannot print20:10
sebikulanygivenname, no problem ;)20:10
Ward|ActionParsnip, i'm used to stuff that randomly breaks since i started using linux20:10
Kadgarno special settings then except using SuperGrubDisk???20:10
LunaVoraxI'll give another try to Arch the day I'l be smart and less lazy aeon-ltd ;)20:10
ActionParsnipWard|: tried a reboot after installing the driver?20:10

Jordan_UKadgar: What problem are you having / what are you trying to do?20:10
AlanatiirIs there a way for me to connect my Lucid Lynx PC to a Windows 7 network so I'm visible (whether or not I have file sharing enabled)?20:11
ActionParsnipWard|: i'd submit a bug too20:11
Ward|since 2006 i had no problems printing20:11
KadgarI am trying to install ubuntu 10.10 on a external hard drive with mac book pro. It seems to install correctly just can't detect the hard drive as bootable or something.20:11
Ward|ActionParsnip, nah i jsut use another printer20:11
ActionParsnipAlanatiir: if you are in the same subnet you will be visible20:11
LunaVoraxNo Kadgar, just be sure to check this page for some tweaks AFTER the install if you encounter some problems https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro4-1/Lucid20:12
tiimohi20:12
AlanatiirActionParsnip: How do I get into the "same subnet"?20:12
LunaVoraxBtw Kadgar, I'm currently on Ubuntu on a MBP 5,3 and the MBP is hotter than under MacOSX, you'll probably encounter that problem too. That's the way it is unfortunately.20:12
ActionParsnipAlanatiir: your network infastructure will use dhcp so it is already happening20:12
tiimocan any one here help me with lirc for microsoft mce remote i cant get it to work20:13
Ward|Alanatiir, on the linux box do ifconfig and check the settigns, on the windows box do ipconfig and check the settings20:13
AlanatiirActionParsnip: Well, if it is already happening, then why am I NOT VISIBLE on the network I'm connected to via my wireless card?20:13
Ward|Alanatiir, and beware subnetMASK is not the same as subnet20:13
Jordan_UKadgar: Ahh. Intel mac firmware is buggy and doesn't recognise USB disks as bootable when using the BIOS interface.20:13
ActionParsniptiimo: ask in ##windows. This is ubuntu support only20:13
cdavisDo you use Esc to get to the grub menu to choose a different kernel?20:13
ActionParsniptiimo: oh wait20:14
Ward|ActionParsnip, its a MS remote, used on linux i think20:14
Ward|lol20:14
ActionParsniptiimo: is the remote a remote but made by ms?20:14
Jordan_Ucdavis: Hold shift as of Ubuntu 9.10.20:14
ActionParsniptiimo: my apologies20:14
Ward|lirc = linux, winlirc = windows :) (normally)20:14
ActionParsniptiimo: if you run in a terminal: xev ,and press the buttons, do they make events?20:15
cdavisJordan_U: thanks20:15
Kadgarhmm, I thinking maybe i should just install ubuntu on my internal using bootcamp, I just don't like everything to install automatically to it20:15
Jordan_Ucdavis: You're welcome.20:15
AlanatiirI see no mention of 'subnet' in 'ifconfig'20:15

tiimoahah im using it in ubuntu20:15
DragginGood evening! I'm using gwget in Ubuntu, but something went wrong with my window manager and I had to restart GDM. Now, wget is still running in the background, downloading my file, but gwget seems to have become disconnected from the process and is unaware of it. How can I bring the wget process to the foreground (even in terminal) so I can see how far it is and whether it is, in fact, making progress?20:16
indioHi. Anyone experienced sound problems (no sound) with Ubuntu latest edition (Maverick Meerkat) in OO.o Impress? Thanks.20:16
ActionParsnipAlanatiir: is the ubuntu system connected to the same router as the windows pcs?20:16
AlanatiirActionParsnip: Yes20:16
LunaVoraxKadgar, good thing also. That's what I'm doing. I recommend you to keep MacOSX anyway since you can have some hardware that doesn't work yet with Ubuntu (ex/ HD webcams and camcorders)20:16
ActionParsnipDraggin: kill the process20:16
limeActionParsnip, That won't help him. . .20:16
DragginActionParsnip - wouldn't that corrupt my download?20:16
ActionParsnipAlanatiir: then its fine and the ubuntu box is visible20:16
AlanatiirActionParsnip: All are connected (by wired for one pc, wireless to the same access point for the other machines).  Mine is not part of the network, but everyone else's is.20:17
ActionParsnipDraggin: possibly but you can restart the download right?20:17
AlanatiirActionParsnip: But that's it, right there.  I am NOT VISIBLE. :(20:17
ActionParsniplime: help who,  I'm talking to about 4 people here...20:17
AlanatiirActionParsnip: And right now two of the people in the household, my GF and her stepfather are pissed with me about it.20:17
Guest55213is this bad :I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x0000000020:17
Jordan_UKadgar: You can work around the problem by using grub-efi instead of grub-pc, but that presents some additional problems as many linux graphics drivers don't work when booted via EFI. And of course you can use Super GRUB2 Disk to boot from CD as a work around as you already know.20:17
DragginActionParsnip - I have limited bandwidth and it's larger than a GB - really don't want to (nor can I afford to) restart it...20:17
limeDraggin, You can watch the file output20:18
ActionParsnipAlanatiir: ok then if you un: ifconfig ,you will see your ip. Probably 192.168.0.x20:18
Karen_mwhy with 10.10, when you do.. ~ka<tab> it does not auto-complete anymore?20:18
limeDraggin, See if it grows20:18
limeDraggin, The process will stop by itself when it's finished20:18
Dragginlime - yes, that I've done, which is why I know it's still working.  I'd very much like to see how far along it is and what speed it's running at though...20:18
cousteauis it possible to make apt-get to automatically autoremove?20:18
ActionParsnipDraggin: hmm i'd leave it a while and see if the process ends, then md5 test the file to amake sure its not damaged20:18
ActionParsnipcousteau: could make a script ;)20:19
limeDraggin, Unfortunately there is no easy way to redirect the output of the process20:19
limegwget probably popen's the process20:19
ActionParsnipAlanatiir: if you can ping the ubuntu server by ip, you are ok20:19
cousteauKaren_m: strange... you're right20:19
Dragginlime - does that imply that there is a way though...? :)20:19
cousteauKaren_m: it does work, anyway20:20
Draggineven though difficult...?20:20
limeDraggin, that depends on how gwget spawned the process20:20
Karen_mcousteau, you have to type in the full name before it will start working20:20
KadgarThanks, I just have one more question. If I install ubuntu on my internal is there a way to set the default install drive to my external for all my ubuntu programs. Installing programs seems to always default to the main hard drive and it is annoying finding ways to install them on a different drive.20:20
Dragginlime - sorry, you lost me there...20:20
cousteauKaren_m: no, wait... `cd ~us` doesn't autocomplete to /home/user, but `~us` does autocomplete to ~user20:20
cousteau...and it worked before, never mind20:21
thecdggseriesis there a channel of Slackware??20:21
Dragginlime - although - just checked the original filesize and it looks like it's only about 200MB from being done.  I think I'll just wait and then run an md5 to see if it worked properly20:21
Guest55213my disk identifer is 0x00000000 is that okay? :|20:21
Karen_mcousteau,  i used to be able to do;  cd ~ka<tab>/dow<tab> and it would fill in the path20:21
cousteauprobably #slackware... does your irc client have a channel search?20:21
Ward|nice the network printing is broken too20:21
* Ward| kicks ubuntu off the system20:22
AndrewMCthecdggseries: ##slackware20:22
jpcanaverdeHello.20:22
cousteauKaren_m: well, if you are the only user you can still do   cd ~/dow<tab>20:22
AxidentJordan_U: I have made this now. http://pastebin.com/L38wQPsd. This work. I found that I have mised a /. and added find to the variable again, then the scribt work. Thank you again.20:22
Karen_mi'm not the only user :(20:22
thecdggseriesAndrewMC, thanks20:23
limeDraggin, do that... According to source code it uses named pipes20:23
jpcanaverdeCan someone help me with Brasero and a DVD+R DL?20:23
limelime, So probably you have a named pipe somehere, you can get output from if you want20:23
limeDraggin,  So probably you have a named pipe somehere, you can get output from if you want20:23
Dragginlime - gwget uses named pipes?20:23
DragginI have no idea how that works though... Where can I read up about that?20:23
Karen_mcousteau, something did change20:24
cousteaubash autocompletion20:24
jpcanaverdeI was burning files to a DVD+R DL with Brasero..20:24
limeDraggin, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Named_pipe20:24
cousteaumaybe you can pick the old bash autocompletion files, which are on /etc/bash_completion.d or something like that20:24
Jordan_UKadgar: I assume you also want your user's files to go on the external?20:25
ubuntu_madJordan_U20:25
jpcanaverdethen, right after it started burning, it asked me to eject the disk, because it couldn't eject itself.20:25
jpcanaverdebut I can't eject the disk.20:25
jpcanaverdeand the brasero process doesn't stop...20:25
ubuntu_madJordan_U you available for more bug fixing ;-)20:25
jpcanaverdelike it's still using the disk.20:25
jpcanaverdebut it says it's over and I jyst need to eject manually.20:25
KadgarBasically programs that take up a lot of space. Files that can be easily moved I am not as worried about20:25
jpcanaverdebut I can't eject it.20:25

webBuilderthank you in Advance20:27
ubuntu_madjpcanaverde have you tried eject via >Place>you disk drive20:28
basix-I've googled for my laptop wireless help with ubuntu and cannot find any helpful resources20:28
doktoreaslime yep20:28
brontoeeewebBuilder, possibly mediainfo needs only the headers for certain type of files20:28
tiimo? any one at al i hvae mce reciver and can get irw working but the lirc.config lie is not being used20:28
Chillancedoes anyone here got a good way to create a graph based on some values?20:29
Jordan_UKadgar: If you put the directories needed for programs on the external drive, you'll need the external drive plugged in to be able to boot at all. Given that, it might make sense to just have /boot/ on the internal drive and everything else on the external, or even do a normal install to the external and I can help you make a small partition on your internal that will simply boot the external drive.20:29
tiimosry miss typing20:29
webBuilderbrontoeee,  I thank you so much20:29
Chillancesaved as say some kind of csv file or so20:29
webBuilderI'll work on what you have told me20:29
limedoktoreas, Have you manually edited your /etc/apt/sources.list?20:29
brontoeeewebBuilder, and maybe ffmpeg can be abused for that as well20:29
webBuilderbrontoeee, what do you mean abused ?20:30
webBuilderbrontoeee, can you expand it little bit20:30
doktoreaslime, nope20:30
limedoktoreas, Because archive.canonical.com does not have a multiverse repository20:30
Jordan_UKadgar: Whatever you do I'd avoid boot camp unless you're actually going to be installing windows. It's not needed for linux, and converts from "pure" GPT to a hybrid mbr, which is kind of ugly.20:30
webBuilderbrontoeee, I think you meant ffmpeg can tell me what kind of file is it am I correct ?20:30
brontoeeewebBuilder, you need to know if the file, that is only partialy uploade is video file or not?is that right? or only prior to transcoding?20:31
brontoeee*uploaded20:31
KadgarOk...20:31
webBuilderbrontoeee, you are quite right20:31
limedoktoreas, Do you have any lines in that file referencing archive.canonical.com?20:31
webBuilderbrontoeee, and I am using actually ffmpeg to convert my files20:31
webBuilderbrontoeee, so in this case what can I do with ffmpeg to find out what the people are uploading20:32
doktoreaslime, oh yeah, the partneter repositor20:32
doktoreasdeb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu lucid partner multiverse20:32
doktoreasdeb-src http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu lucid partner20:32
KadgarSo, what your saying is that I can make a partition on the internal that contains the /boot and the / be on the external drive and as long as the external drive is plugged in it will boot without need of a cd or anything?20:32
limedoktoreas, that line with multiverse is the culprit20:32
brontoeeewebBuilder, ffmpeg -i somefile should give you some clues20:32
limedoktoreas, It will not work20:32
brontoeeewebBuilder, what info do you need exactly?20:32
Jordan_UKadgar: Correct.20:32
limedoktoreas, comment it out by prefixing the line with #20:32
doktoreaslime, thx! I0l try to comment it20:32
brontoeeewebBuilder, and why?20:33
basix-i need help with my wireless card on my acer aspire 5100, linux will not recognize it at all20:33
webBuilderbrontoeee, when the people start uploading I would love to know what they trying to upload is a video file, if it is video file, then let them upload it then use ffmpeg to convert it to *flv20:33
KadgarThank you for the information! That is probably my best bet then.20:33
webBuilderbrontoeee, if not ignore their upload and send them a message20:33
Jordan_UKadgar: You're welcome.20:34
limedoktoreas, You can see which repos are available by having a peek at http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/Release20:34

Jordan_Ubasix-: Yes.20:34
basix-or should i just stick with windows if i want my wireless adapter to work?20:34

brontoeeewebBuilder, however, it is possible to fake from the user side a lot of info, so there were HD mp4 files on youtube a long ago20:38

webBuilderbrontoeee, what approach should I take? madiainfo, file, mimetype, or ffmpeg?20:39
Jordan_Ubasix-: You're welcome.20:39
brontoeeewebBuilder, i think they simply limit the download bandwith per file, or force every file to be transcoded in the 1st place20:39

B45h_V|hey people. I got some (basic) knowledge about networking (sub-net-mask calculation and stuff), but I never did anything with 'bridged-connections'. I'm wondering now, how long would it take me to setup a open-vpn-server on Ubuntu server with a good tutorial. hour? day? week?20:40
webBuilderbrontoeee, Mmm... make sense, do you know which one are the most common? and also once I force the client still I need to know what kind of it is20:40

konraddoHi, I ordered Asus 1015PEM and I'm going to install Xubuntu on it, my friends is convincing me to install 64-bit version, but it's worth to install 64b instead of 32b?20:42
webBuilderbrontoeee, no worries I'll repeated20:42
B45h_V|you'll have to upgrade to 10.04 first, but it won't wipe your files20:42
brontoeeewebBuilder, that depends on how smart is your encoding script, you need to know only if video=true/false for some basic decisions and a lot more if you need to build something serious, like fps, audio type, resolution, interlaced or not, ect20:42
ubuntu_madJordan_U No,do you remember a few days ago you helped me fix a missing kernel problem,my box was only booting to memtest?20:42

ubuntu_madJordan_U well its booted 3 times since but today it booted and i got this kernel panic20:44

andaiIḿ running from USB. Can I do anything to speed it up?20:44
FunkyPaillettekhussein: you change the permissions for this specific file20:44
brontoeeewebBuilder, if your aim is flash then some sort of AVC / AAC in mp4 and/or older flv packed formats maybe (vp6, sorenson, dunno)20:45

spectre^i just installed 10.10 and my second monitor'20:49
Jordan_Uubuntu_mad: I expect the fist recovery mode option will give the same result, try an older kernel (third entry in theboot menu or later).20:49
spectre^s resolution is like, past the edge of the screen20:49
spectre^Can anyone help with that?20:49
ubuntu_madJordon_U big issue is i dont have any older kernels in the boot menu20:49

she_dyedspectre^: you need a 3rd!20:49
ubuntu_madJordan_U recovery has same issue20:49

EchohcEI chose the third option to specify partitions manually in the installer because I haven't tried 10.04 since when it first came out.  Back then it would automatically put Grub2 to dev/sda instead of /sda321:20
ZykoticK9euthymos, there are 2 places to enable vsync - 1) nvidia settings - both X and GL have the "Sync to VBlank" options and 2) Compiz - ccsm - General Options / Display Settings tab - Sync to VBlank.  Best of luck.21:21

Jordan_UEchohcE: grub-legacy didn't understand gpt and would overwrite the gpt label when installed to the mbr. Grub2 has never had this problem, but people still, incorrectly, recommend installing to a partition instead of the mbr. The mbr is the correct place for grub, even on macs.21:23

Chaos2358Diamondcite,  ubuntu is installed on the hard drive of the computer i'm using21:33
aeon-ltdGnurdux: besides uninstalling and installing a older version?21:33
apparleaeon-ltd: never mind, a restart seems to have fixed it21:33
Gnurduxaeon-ltd, well, without breakign the rest of ubuntu21:33
DiamondciteChaos2358: So do things like F5 to refresh a page work?21:33
Chaos2358xangua, i use english as my first language but not to familiar with the tech accronyms21:33
spectre^what release is 10.10 called? :P21:33
aeon-ltdapparle: oh good :), reminds me of the I.T Crowd21:34
AngelovCan anyone give me a script how to make automaticly change MAC address with the #ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:00:00:00:00:0021:34
aeon-ltdGnurdux: then no, why do you need to?21:34
apparleaeon-ltd: IT crowd?21:34
Chaos2358Diamondcite,  yes21:34
darkenvy6I would love to change my mac21:34
darkenvy6yes someone tell me too21:34
nightwalkAngelov: You can use macchanger for that21:34
she_dyedapparle: a tv show21:34

DiamondciteChaos2358: Are you in a DEFAULT ubuntu envoriment(GNOME) or did you change it to something else?21:34
Chaos2358Diamondcite, default gnome21:35
DiamondciteHrm.. open up a terminal.21:35
DiamondcitePress F1121:35
DiamondciteWhat happens?21:35
aeon-ltdGnurdux: ok then i've got no solution but wait for the next release to fix the bug21:35
Angelovnightwalk: Yes but with that I have to change every time I boot the Ubuntu21:35
apparleaeon-ltd: arrrghhh now what should I do so that my system starts straight with enna and exits when I close enna21:35
apparle?21:35
DiamondciteChaos2358: Open up a terminal, press F11, does it full screen?21:35
Chaos2358it makes it full screen21:35
DiamondciteChaos2358: So firefox is alone...21:35
nightwalkAngelov: so? Just call it from /etc/rc.local21:35
Gnurduxaeon-ltd, so downgrading X will necessarily break all of Ubuntu?21:35
Chaos2358yes21:36
DiamondciteChaos2358: Hold on let me update mine ^_^21:36
Chaos2358Diamondcite,  ok21:36
avoHow can I back up my entire system? I'd like to upgrade from Lucid to Maverick, but if anything goes wrong, I would like to be able to "flip a switch" and have the partition become Lucid again; exactly as I left it. Is this possible/how?21:36
darkenvy6clonezilla21:36

Angelovnightwalk: I want to make it automaticly to start the connection coz I use wired connection , its anoying to change it every time :)21:37
brontoeeeChaos2358, tried nuking .mozzila ? (just rename .mozzila to .mozzila_bak) and restart firefox21:37
she_dyedapparle: seems you want it dedicated to 'kiosk mode' <-- google for the technique21:37
aeon-ltdapparle: when you boot there should be a option in GRUB to boot into the safe kernel21:37
brontoeeeChaos2358, thats /home/Chaos/.mozilla21:37
perseus I need a way to enhance my sound in Ubuntu, is there any applicaition such as SRS or DFX for any player or Ubuntun in general21:38
Chaos2358Diamondcite,  when i have the window expanded to "fit to screen" and press f11 nothing happens when i shrink the window and press f11 it makes it full screen and hides the toolbars as it is supposed to21:38
nightwalkAngelov: My answer is still the same. Dump either a macchanger command, or an appropriate ifconfig command to /etc/rc.local21:38
blakkheim!repeat | perseus21:38

ubuntu_madcan i upgrade a live usb from 10.04 to 10.10?21:39
perseusubuntu_mad: live USB ... i think not.21:39
ubuntu_madperseus ok thanks21:40
Chaos2358Diamondcite, that was the problem. i have two inches of toolbars i dont want to have to dissable and enable constantlly just want them to auto hide as f11 does when it expands the window but it does not work when the window is already filling up the screen21:40
binary01jordan_U, i did what you explained and it is asking which disk to install grub and none of them work when i select them21:40
arrrghhhubuntu_mad, you can try might be fun.  but if it doesn't work, just make another one.21:40
DiamondciteChaos2358: Thank you for the information, I'll keep that in mind ^_^21:40
apparleWhy are the packages "libeina-svn-05" giving not available under maverick21:40
Jordan_Ubinary01: What do you mean by them "not working"? Do you get an error message?21:40
Angelovnightwalk: about the /etc/rc.local , I try with it but no success, btw I leave the value for "exit 0" (maybe I need to erase that)? Give me explanaion what i need to do if you know21:40

WXZhow can I open up a bunch of files21:41
apparleshe_dyed: I am getting very old links, do you have any specific link?21:41
WXZwithout having the "run in terminal, display, close" dialogue popping up for each file21:41
perseusWXZ what do you mean by opening bunch of files?21:41
eli_I have a internal soundcard on my motherboard and a external pci soundcard. would like to configure so that ubuntu uses my external sound card. how could I do this?21:41
perseusWXZ what kind of files you trying to open?21:42
arrrghhhWXZ, what type of files are these...?21:42
nightwalkAngelov: Everything you put in /etc/rc.local needs to be *above* the 'exit 0'. Anything below it won't get executed, because the exit 0 causes the script to abort and return control back to the calling process (init, in this case)21:42
WXZ.note files21:42
WXZwith geany21:42
aeon-ltdeli_: gnome alsamixer may have the settings your looking for21:42
she_dyedapparle: narrow it down to firefox or browsers only because the technique 'EXPORT DISPLAY something' hasnt changed21:42
binary01i select my main partiton and a small swap partition and i get an error that says 'failed to install the following devices, /dev/sda /dev/mmcblk0 do you want to continue anyway?21:42
VCoolioeli_: disable onboard card in bios so ubuntu has no choice21:42
arrrghhhWXZ, associate your favorite reader with these files then.  right click -> properties on one of the .note files21:42
perseusWXZ try opening gedit first and then select drag an drop to that ...21:42
WXZwith gedit it works fine21:43
grid_with ubunu 10.10 do i have sshd installed?21:43
Jordan_Ubinary01: Don't select the partitions at all (though that probably won't fix the error).21:43
perseusWXZ or you can do what arrrghhh said ...21:43
grid_i get The remote system refused the connection.21:43
darkmisthow do I find what version of java is installed on my ubuntu system?21:43
grid_so the port is opened i guess21:43
WXZthey're already associated with geany21:43
VCoolioWXZ: nautilus, the file manager, has an option in preferences to ask or not ask this for text files21:43
Jordan_Ubinary01: Can you pastebin  the output of "sudo grub-install /dev/sda"?21:43
nightwalkubuntu_mad: Sure, you should be able to upgrade a live 10.04 media to 10.10. Just be aware you'll have to contend with the stupidity that is dpkg, and will most likely have to go into the filesystem several times and delete dpkg's scripts *manually*, since the debian soup nazis don't believe in providing --force21:43

bfinchnightwalk it's just nice seeing someone else who "gets it"21:47
darkmistjava version "1.6.0_20"21:47
nightwalkAngelov: The stuff in /etc/rc.local gets ran *after* all of the other init scripts, so your network connection is being brought up before the mac gets changed. Try adding 'service networking restart' after the line that changes the mac address21:47

nightwalkbfinch: imo, rpm is the best solution we have atm.21:48
blakkheimoh wow21:48
darkmistaeon-ltd: why 2 java files are shown?21:48
oly562darkmist: you having an issue with elluminate or something that calls on java-6 jvm?21:49
Angelovnightwish: in the r.local? Or Interfaces?21:49
gileswi'm struggling to remove the remnants of X from my mythtv backend server21:49
nightwalkbfinch: pacman may or may not be nicer, but it's only available in one distro: arch. Arch is so badly broken and outdated that I could never recommend people use it21:49
bfinchnightwalk well i would agree except that there is no standard wrapper util for it... AND rpm hasome issues that the devs refuse to fix21:49
darkmistoly562 .. so there is an issue with my java installation ..right?21:49
darkmistoly562 .. how do I fix the problem?21:50
oly562can you launch a java jm app from the net, where java loads, and it opens a new window?21:50
bfinchnightwalk.... um i see you really do not know arch... becasue as a rooling release it is never outdated.21:50
bfinchrooling =rolling21:50
perseusnightwalk many woud disagree about arch :P21:50
gileswI've removed packages like gdm but ubuntu is still trying to load x21:50
oly562jvm however its said, ya know, the new window that pops up, like in an elluminate session?21:50
bfinchNOTHING is outdated about a rolling release21:50
perseusnightwalk yeah ... just as i said .. :P21:50
nightwalkbfinch: careful...there are actually two different rpm's out in the wild now. If the talk I've heard in #rpm is to be believed, that particular branch may get .deb support before long21:50
oly562hello, got a question: how can i tell if i have a program installed with apt-get, or aptitude in cmdlne. syntax? thanks21:50
Swiangotta say I don't like the netbook remix much, I prefer running the full version, works fine21:50
bfinchand pacman works so it is hardly "broken"21:50
darkmistcan you launch a java jm app from the net, where java loads, and it opens a new window? HOW??21:50
oly562is it apt-get info?21:51
grid_do i have sshd with ubuntu 10.10? or do i need to type sudo apt-get install openssh-server /21:51
grid_please :)21:51
nightwalkperseus: arch doesn't have virtio support. First and biggest failing.21:51
oly562darkmist:  i had a similiar issue if not the same21:51

VCooliooly562: you can't, in the end they both use dpkg, the same database; only shell history could tell if it was recently21:51
guntbertgrid_: why don't you try? won't hurt21:51
densoneI am trying to use access.conf and it's not working. Wondering if I somehow have to enable it in ubuntu.21:51
nightwalkbfinch: I dunno. I wouldn't mind making .deb's if I didn't have to contend with debian's god-awful build methodology21:51
perseusnightwalk no ideas buddy .. but i have been on neowin and there are some pretty staunch supporters there.21:52
aeon-ltddarkmist: no idea, maybe one has different permissions21:52

darkmistoly562: any idea how I could solve the issue?21:52
perseusjordan_u can you repeat your quest?21:52
oly562here is what i did,,, when the popup comes, make sure it's says, java-6, if not, you goto your browser apps settings under options and make sure it loads the /usr/bin/java-621:52
=== SoulShadow is now known as Shadows`hardwork
=== Shadows`hardwork is now known as Shadows`yardwork
nightwalkAngelov: if you do 'service networking restart', it bounces the network interfaces. Putting that after your mac change statement *should* allow any mac binding you're doing from other configs to work21:52
=== PepeLoco98702 is now known as Felip0n
darkmistaeon-ltd .. both have the same set of permissions21:53
oly562thats how i fixed it, and then when the popup shows, just make sure to select the "always use this program" option21:53
oly562simple21:53
Jordan_Uperseus: I am giving support.21:53
darkmistaeon-ltd: .. both have the same set of permissions21:53
oly562shouldnt matter how many java installs and dir's you have, as long as you point it to the correct binary to run21:53
bfinchnightwalk.... since arch has a TRUE user supported repo (aur) if YOU seek virtio... YOU can create it21:53
etheretic1Are there any benefits to using ext4 instead of ext3 on external usb hard disks? Less likelyhood of bad blocks, etc.?21:53
oly562i loaded java 6, and the firefox java-6 pluggin21:53
nightwalkperseus: I'd be kind of curious *why*. Unless it's just a cult following, I may have missed something important last time I evaluated it.21:54
perseusjordan_U sorry ... :P21:54
bfinchetheretic1, perhaps.... but i have NEVER had lost data with ext321:54
VCoolioetheretic1: no it just supports very large partitions and stuff21:54
oly562that is why you have a few diff java dir's i believe21:54
apparleWhy doesn't tab work sometimes in minimal install?21:54
Jordan_Uperseus: np :)21:54
VCoolioetheretic1: it doesn't matter for an usb, though some will claim ext3 is more stable21:54
perseusnightwalk have a look there in Linux support forum .. u will be baffled .. :D21:54
nightwalkbfinch: I have my own rpm repo out on the 'net already, and there's also launchpad. Don't really see a problem there.21:54
oly562darkmist: same goes for anything, you have to have the right /usr/bin/program-bin pointed to in browser settings, like i use evince to ALWAYS open up my pdf's, i set that in apps in options of FF21:54
VCoolioetheretic1: and ext3 is a little better supported by MS if you need21:55
IchatSwian:  - first thing wrong with UNR  is that its gnome based rather than for example  lxde/xfce  based  -1   the seccound its that its interface forces a modern gpu for no reason so your old  notebook that has a big(ger) screen but low resolution, and low resources like cpu and ram cant profit from the netbook version  -2    and still  even if you do have unr running its hardly intergrating...21:55
Ichat...all the apps21:55
oly562same for videos, plugins, so forth, they need to be set in FF, sometimes manually if you have comflicting plugins grabbing for the same operation21:55

oly562anyone run into the "hula" 64bit issue and solved it ?21:59
nightwalkperseus: 'apt-get install' is kind of a pain sometimes, too. I can't just do something like 'apt-get install *ffi*' and have it work. Instead, I have to find more specific names to install.21:59

perseusnightwalk yeah true .. i get headaches when i have to install specific stuffs like some libs .... the names are all crazy with what not in the prefix22:00
guntbertnightwalk: please get back to on topic talk22:00
nightwalkperseus: ...and even with ppa's on launchpad, there's *still* things that are allowed to get hopelessly ancient for lack of updates22:00
Kedarewhen I do that what is shown on the guide, I get the minimal grub shell at boot22:00
oly562so whats the diff between apt-get and aptitude, seems like aptitude works a little better at some installs22:00
k5673nightwalk: use the apt-cache search "tha_package" and apt-get install "specific name of the package"22:00
etheretic1bfinch: s'like a spare tire - you don't know u needed one until...22:00
oly562cmdline i mean22:00
oly562access to more sources?22:00
ikoniaoly562: they are just different front ends to dpkg22:00
nightwalkguntbert: it *is* on topic. It's apt-get, which ubuntu uses, does it not?22:00
steevoKedare:the simple solution is to reinstall a linux with grub. triple boot. or you can just reinstall grub with a handy guide from google22:00
VCooliooly562: different handling of dependencies and aptitude has a cli frontend22:00
oly562ikonia: k22:00
apparleshe_dyed: this seems to be the way to automatic login and startx, how to trigger enna while starting x?22:00
blakkheimoly562: aptitude handles dependencies better and keeps things cleaner22:00

Angelovnightwalk:http://www.flickr.com/photos/kallc/5111461673/22:01
bfinchnightwalk you might like the wrapper script for pacman.... yaourt installs from either source or binary (automagically) ANYTHING it can find in repos AND it uses **regx** so you can search like you woudl like for packages22:01
oly562VCoolio: ah, thats what i thought , see sometimes a program that wont install with apt-get , installs with aptitude in cmdline. go figure22:01

oly562VCoolio: i have tested that a few times, and i know there is some diff22:01
ikoniathere isn't22:01
nightwalkguntbert: Just because you have a difference of opinion doesn't make what I'm saying 'ranting'22:01
ikoniathey can only intereact with dpkg in the same way22:02
anygivennamefail2ban is working but ssh is not logging attempts in log.....sshd_config is set to DEBUG......any ideas ?22:02

oly562at least22:02
oly562but ikonia is all seeing, he must be right22:02
ikoniaoly562: you've probably not done sudo apt-ghet update to bring the repos into sync22:03
ikoniaoly562: they both use the same repos so thats all it can be22:03
oly562ikonia: possible, now that makes sense, however, i usually do22:03

oly562question: i am receiving this error: we're sorry, the hulu player is not supported on 64 bit versions of Flash ubuntu22:24
MorpheuXNLshe_dyed: does this mean it is in /22:24
Kai696perseus :D <3 well how about with /dev/sda3 not mounting then ?22:24
oly562anyone have a work around?22:24
MorpheuXNLshe_dyed: if this is the case can i still make /home on a different partition22:24
perseusKai696 what about that?22:24
perseus:D22:24
psilyntI think I messed up java. a 'which java' returns blank, but a 'sudo which java' returns /usr/bin/java. I can't run java without being su22:25
Kai696it won't mount, saying i need a FS tag so i added the proper ext4 tag and still ntohing (sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt)22:25
Kai696@ perseus22:25
Stormx2oly562, why are you using 64-bit flash. it's unsupported and insecure22:25
she_dyedMorpheuXNL: not running live are you, or wubi22:25
MorpheuXNLshe_dyed: nope22:25
erUSULpsilynt: do « echo "$PATH" » as normal user22:25
nightwalkpsilynt: your $PATH is probably different than root's22:25
bfinchi am NOT "normal"22:26
al_nz1for a ubuntu system22:26
psilyntNo... sudo echo $PATH and echo $PATH return the same value22:26
nightwalkoly562: yes. use the mozilla-packaged version of firefox, or chrome, etc22:27
perseusKai696 really no ideas but why don't you try force mounting ...22:27
she_dyedMorpheuXNL: and not a VM, then we are the same, we have in in /22:27
she_dyedit*22:27
al_nz1if i need to "make" on a install of john the ripper, am I picking the linux-x86-64 version?22:27

pibarnasis it possible to theme gnome-chess?22:27
oly562nightwalk: i did22:27
Stormx2al_nz1, if you're on a x86-64 system, yes22:27
Jordan_Upsilynt: That doesn't mean anything as $PATH is expanded by the shell, as your user, before being passed to sudo then echo.22:28
pibarnasits apearance looks awful.22:28
oly562SwedeMike: i guess i could grep -i whateva /var/lib/aptitude/pkgstates22:28
psilyntJordan_U: What do I need to do to, then?22:28
cjc2010Automatic printing of new email + marking as read, any suggestions please? apps, plugins, scripts?22:28
oly562i guess this works pretty good for what im trying to do:  less /var/lib/aptitude/pkgstates|grep -i flash |less try it ;)22:29
balr0gikonia, oly562 i already installed ruby1.9.1 using Synaptic, same thing: The program 'ruby' is currently not installed.22:29
nightwalkoly562: So you're running 32 bit firefox? What about flash? Did you install a 32 bit version of that as well?22:29
balr0gwhat can i do?22:29
Jordan_Upsilynt: printenv PATH; sudo printenv PATH22:29
oly562nightwalk: nah, 64bit22:29
oly562thus the error22:29
oly562why do i want to go back a step ? lol the default is 64amd now,, lol22:29
Stormx2No it's not.22:30
Jordan_Upsilynt: But the problem seems to be that you just don't have /usr/bin/ in your user's $PATH.22:30
oly562go order a new box from dell/hp so forth, its 64bit now22:30
Stormx2Flash isn't.22:30
nightwalkoly562: 32 bit browsers are actually kind of nicer. Being 32 bit, they can't hog all of the system's memory like they otherwise would :/22:30
balr0gcan anyobody help me with this ruby package? why isnt seem to be installed?22:30
Stormx2Adobe have stopped developing 64-bit flash. It never left alpha. As much of a pain it is, you need to use 32-bit flash.22:30
psilyntthe only difference is normal user has /usr/games and su has /usr/X11/bin22:30
oly562i guess i could load linux on my ibm aptiva c67 to be with the times....22:30
Jordan_UStormx2: It's back again.22:30
oly562i have 4 gigs of mem, nightwalk, not an issue22:30
psilyntJordan_U /usr/bin is in my normal user's path22:30
Stormx2Really?!22:30
nightwalkoly562: I have 8gb, and yet 64 bit chromium *still* eventually sucked it up and caused my system to become unusable22:31
oly562amd's were designed for backend proc's so , for my needs i'll stick with 64bit from here till 128bit22:31
psilyntjordan_U: It's only java that I have a problem with, other commands work. Could it be a permission issue?22:31
oly562nightwalk: i dont use google stuff yet, other than gmail/voice22:31
oly562it's not ready yet ;)22:31

xangua nightwalk the current prebeta 7 does in windows vista and osx, it doesn't in linux :(22:35

rahdukeill try22:42
nightwalkrahduke: hmm....well, I know the default gcc (4.4) isn't what they used to build the 2.6.35 kernel I'm running here, and the kernel is picky about the version used to compile things matching up. Might try changing your /usr/bin/gcc link to /usr/bin/gcc-4.2, and re-install the package22:42
dstaubsaugermaybe the error message contains some info22:42
Jordan_Upsilynt: Ahh, so it's one of the directories whose permissions are bad.22:42
oly562balr0g: sorry your asking the wrong person... try another...22:42

psilyntJordan_U: Sure, After I realized I'd botched it, I tried uninstalling and putting normal sun jre on. One moment.22:43

rahdukefrom CLI22:44
KB1JWQaconrad: :set xterm_clipboard=on?22:44
nightwalkrahduke: there's probably a way to do it through the 'alternatives' system, but I just did 'rm -f /usr/bin/gcc && ln -s /usr/bin/gcc-4.2 /usr/bin/gcc'22:44
Jordan_Upsilynt: Did you at any point install a version of java that was not from a .deb or synaptic/apt?22:44

spinningcompasssemitones: BIOS? It's probably hardware-specific. What make and model of laptop do you have?22:48
nightwalkrahduke: 'apt-get install linux-<type>-<version>'. <type> will normally be 'generic', though rt & vserver are other reasonable possibilities. Doing something like 'apt-get install linux-*' should give you an idea what's available22:48

oly562anygivenname: iptables aka UFW in ubuntu, man ufw, log remote attempts with crontab to a file you can back up somewhere else remotely, makes it harder for hacks to erase tracks. if i am following you correctly per your statement to me23:21
nightwalkzatan: not sure what you mean by that23:21

coz_Tom1,  you mean the grub menu  .. yes?23:34
Tom1the boot menu looks like it did before i upgraded to 10.1023:34
earthshadeWhen I click the little envelope in the top right corner, it only says "chat" and "broadcast",  why doesn't it say "mail"?23:34
BenkinoobyDragonKeeper, if you are out of luck there come back and try here again. usually in #xorg it takes more time until some1 responds so be patient23:34
Tom1i see 10.04 (which doesn't work if i try to use it) and windows 7 (which still works)23:35

coz_Tom1,    http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide23:37
ikoniaanygivenname: in /etc/ssh/sshd_config search for SyslogFacility23:37
DragonKeeperok  cheers for the help anyway23:38
coz_Tom1,  if you try that..please read through it a few times to become familiar with it23:38
anygivennameikonia, oly562: & even my fail2ban config settings were not applied....i mean with regard to 3 attempts max for example23:38
ikoniaanygivenname: make sure it is set to AUTHPRIV23:38
anygivennameit is on AUTH23:38
ikoniaanygivenname: set it to AUTHPRIV23:38
ikoniaanygivenname: /etc/ssh/sshd_config SyslogFacility=AUTHPRIV23:38
ikoniaanygivenname: restart sshd then23:38
anygivennameok23:39
Tom1coz_: I think I tried a procedure very similar to that already but the grub menu didn't change upon restart23:39
oly562is learning.... always learning lol23:39
earthshadeWhen I click the little envelope in the top right corner, it only says "chat" and "broadcast",  why doesn't it say "mail"?23:39
foobarbecueHi all. I wanted to get my tablet to rotate the screen automatically when I rotated it, so I found some script on some forum and installed it and it did just that. Now I've decided I don't like that behavior any more, but can't remember what script I used or where I put it or how it's triggered. Silly me. Any ideas?23:39
nightwalkDrManhattan: nothing may have been wrong with grub for your uses, but there were limitations. So which is better? Pushing more advanced features that bring lots of new bugs with them onto people that don't need the extra features, or branching and allowing people to choose which to use?23:39
coz_Tom1,  then the install may have failed at some point....did you check the cd for errors?23:39
BenkinoobyTom1, afaik working on menu.lst is outdated. if you use 10.04 you sue grub2 see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub223:40
Tom1also, if i use the live cd and act like i'm going to install 10.10 I can see a windows and an ubuntu 10.10 partition on the disk already23:40
oly562can anyone play this vid - http://www.hulu.com/watch/187465/sanctuary-firewall  using FF 64bit? if so, can i see your configs, plugins, so forth? thanks23:40
RoC_MasterMindAnyone else get a boot hang after installing ubuntu server to an iscsi root?  I get this: http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/9383/screenshotwrw.png23:40
BenkinoobyTom1 the best thing to do is to use a live system23:40
ikoniaanygivenname: can you also show me your ssh jail config for fail2ban23:40
Tom1a live system?23:40
ikoniaoly562: there is no config, flash either works, or doesn't23:40
DrManhattannightwalk, I would say letting people choose, but then again, I spend most of my day passing gas in front of the PC23:40
anygivennameok23:40
coz_Tom1,  yes   it probably  partitioned the drive and install ubuntu but apparenlty  the install is a bit broken23:40
anygivennamewhere is it located ?23:40
earthshadeCan someone please help me23:40
anygivennamei have restarted ssh23:40
ikoniaanygivenname: look in /etc/fail2ban23:41
oly562ikonia: i dont understand....23:41
BenkinoobyTom1 like the CD you mentionen before. if ouy have the cd running you need a terminal and then use the command "chroot"23:41
anygivennamewill also try while u check my fail2ban23:41
ikoniaoly562: flash on linux, especially 64bit is flakey, there isn't a config to "fix it"23:41
coz_Tom1,   y ou can simply overwrite the current install with a fesh install BUT   when you boot into the live cd...you sould see a keyboard logo at the bottom of the screen.. when you see that,,hit enter to get to a menu  ...there you want to check the cd for errors or  check file system   however it is worded23:41
oly562ikonia: i guess im asking for how they set it up to work.... paths symbolic links, so forth... thats what i mean23:41
ikoniaoly562: paths/symlinks won't matter23:41
Tom1Benkinooby: I tried doing that, but the menu didn't change23:42
oly562ikonia: i have gotten it to work flawlessly, however, not with Hula vids, as I have repeated umpteen times now23:42
oly562ikonia: hmmm. interesting view23:42
ikoniaoly562: it either works or it doesn't, it's a poor situation, but it's how it is23:42
Tom1coz_: okay, i will double-check the disk for errors thank you23:42
ikoniaoly562: yes, and it either works or doesn't, it works with some stuff, not with others,23:42
=== Putr is now known as Putr|Away
Tom1is there a way to just "flash" grub2 completely and make it forget whatever menu.lst stuff I was using previously?23:42
oly562ikonia: i understand, but if we stop trying to make things work we will not be better than windoze users23:42
BenkinoobyTom1 did you try this? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 also you need to run someting like grub-update or something to generate the new grub2 settings23:42
coz_Tom1,  if it has errors let someone here know... if I am not here there are many who can tell you how to check the iso image  when you re download it before you burn it23:42
ikoniaoly562: there is nothing to configure, it's a closed source app - you can't change anything23:43
oly562ikonia: i have gotten things to work no matter how hard or unreasonable it seemed23:43
she_dyedits hulu that doesn't bother with playing nice23:43
danciosis there any library/application that can write rtsp video strem on hdd ?23:43
oly562ikonia: i understand the hurdles23:43
earthshadeI have a really basic question23:43
coz_Tom1,   then of course you want to run that check file integrity option before you install it23:43
ikoniaoly562: a.) 64bit flash is dead/not supported b.) its closed sourced compiled app - you can't change anything23:43
BenkinoobyTom1 what you need is update-grub223:43
anygivennamejail ==> http://paste.ubuntu.com/519434/23:43
oly562ikonia: i guess i am asking for the link to the howto, that no one has or is responding to at the moment, i better go search more on the net, i usually find what im looking for, but i did want to hear some input, thanks23:43
oly562ikonia: got it, thanks23:44
she_dyedearthshade: but without remembering what that script or app you ran, we might need more info23:44
Tom1Benkinooby: use that during the chroot process?23:44
ikoniaanygivenname: it's set to 6 attempts,23:44
manhunterhi23:44
earthshadeshe_dyed: What do you mean? I just rebooted and its gone... Im kinda a noon at ubuntu23:44
ikoniaanygivenname: you have two entries the same23:45
ikoniaanygivenname: get rid of the first set23:45
nightwalkoly562: as others have said, flash is flaky on linux. Best solution I've found so far is to just use a downloader plugin and play the media in a normal media player app.23:45

earthshadeshe_dyed: Any ideas?23:45
anygivennamenothing....latest is jail that i edited for u.......Oct 25 00:42:41 yassero sudo:  yassero : TTY=pts/0 ; PWD=/home/yassero ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/bin/gedit /etc/fail2ban/jail.conf23:46
ikoniaoly562: it can depend on anything as simple as hardware, and the site that wraps it, your experience will vary dependingo n many many things, the sad thing is, nothing can be changed23:46
nightwalkoly562: my point was, downloader plugins *always* works. The same can't be said for flash23:46
BenkinoobyTom1 yes, while you are chrooted in. if you chroot to you system on the hhd away from the live system, you can work like it would be your normal system that booted. so the all the commands as they say. please try to understand what you are doing and do nto follow the tutorials blindly23:46
k-radhow might one compare fail2ban and denyhosts ?23:46
ikoniaanygivenname: you have 2 ssh anteis, one for ssh and one for sshd-iptables23:46
Benkinoobyhhd =hdd23:46
she_dyedearthshade: sorry i had it mixed up23:46
ikoniaanygivenname: get rid of the sshd entry, and leave sshd-iptables23:47
ninlyi need to rebuild a dell mini9 netbook, and don't have a USB stick handy. just checking: will i run into trouble if i use the normal USB-stick  method to boot from an old-ish USB hard drive?23:47

earthshadeshe_dyed: Oh ok23:47
=== farmer|alchemist is now known as stringtheory
ikoniaanygivenname: then restart fail2ban23:47
Tom1Benkinooby: okay, i used a tutorial to install grub2 previously, but i don't think it included an update command23:47
ikoniaanygivenname: you may want to change maxretry down to 323:47
Tom1coz_: no errors were found on the installation disk...so hopefully the installation isn't the problem?23:47
anygivennameso i delete ssh & all its lines below it23:48
she_dyedearthshade: what window manager BTW23:48
Jordan_UTom1: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide will rewrite the grub.cfg in the "grub-mkconfig" step.23:48
earthshadeshe_dyed: ?23:48
coz_Tom1,   which video card is on the system?23:48
ikoniassh and 6 lines bellow it23:48
oly562so are you guys saying 64bit flash doesnt work well on firefox 64bit? furthermore, why does it work fine for me? i have flash-installer used, but i used a binary from the net, not from repo23:48
she_dyedearthshade: gnome?23:48
earthshadeshe_dyed: Ubuntu?23:48
earthshadeOh23:48
earthshadeIdk23:48
Tom1it's an ati card23:48

stringtheoryHow do I disable the firewall?23:48
coz_Tom1,  then I am puzzled  for sure23:48
earthshadeLol i downloaded ubuntu 3 days ago she_dyed23:48
anygivennameI delete ssh section with all its lines23:49
ikoniaanygivenname: leave [sshd-iptables23:49
ikoniaanygivenname: and anything bellow it23:49
BenkinoobyTom1 if you did not do the update command all you changes to grub2 will not be used. gain, follow grub2 and not grub. so the menu.lst is nothing of interest anymore23:49
edbianearthshade, :)  How great is it?23:49
Tom1coz_: is it logical to think both operation systems are still there? just not being accessed correctly?23:49
webBuilder.23:49
oly562ikonia: i cant see only hula vids, or wasnt i clear enough ;)23:49
Jordan_UTom1: Your original problem is that you tried to edit entires in the menu.lst directly, but that's not allowed and will break update-grub (with grub legacy). The only things you can change in grub legacy are the settings / entries outside the "Autmagic kernel list" area.23:49
ikoniaoly562: yes, that's not working flawless23:49
anygivennameI delete those23:50
anygivenname[ssh]23:50

nightwalkoly562: 64 bit firefox sometimes doesn't work well with flash, and sometimes doesn't work well with java. The problems change by the version. chrome seems to have a nice track record with flash on this end, though23:50
ikoniaoly562: as you've been told, flash is flakey, some stuff will work, others will not23:50
ikoniaoly562: then your in a lucky position, however you just have to accept that %123:50
oly562nightwalk: not an issue for me, just with hula vids23:50
Tom1Jordan_u: okay, so what would you recommend at this point (can i just bag the old grub entirely?)23:50
BenkinoobyTom1 yes23:50
oly562ikonia: flash works great for me except with hula vids23:50
Jordan_UTom1: With grub2 the distinction is made more clear, settings you are supposed to change go in /etc/default/grub and you simply don't modify the grub.cfg manually.23:50
ikoniaoly562: you've said, and I'm explaining, it's buggy and won't work with all stuff, it's just a bad fact of flash23:50
anygivennameor just {ssh}23:50
oly562ikonia: yep, and it wasnt luck, it was researching and implementation23:50
Jordan_UTom1: I would recommend you follow this guide (which will upgrade you to grub2): http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide23:51
ikoniaoly562: that's just nonsense as you can't configure flash23:51
oly562ikonia: i like flash, and if i really want to watch something, i just download and run it locally23:51
Tom1okay, thank you all for your help23:51
stringtheoryDoes anybody know if Sky internet is unavailable tonight?23:51
anygivennameikonia: I remove the 4 lines below {ssh} ?23:51
ikoniaanygivenname: perfect23:51
Tom1i will try it on the broken machine now23:51
ikoniaanygivenname: change the maxretry to 323:51
oly562ikonia: i never said i can configure the source, but i did download rewritten bin's that work fine, and are not flaky, except for hula vids23:51
ikoniaanygivenname: restart fail2ban23:51
oly562i have never used fail2ban,,, whats that do?23:52
ikoniaoly562: re-written bins, what ???? it's closed source, they can't be re-written23:52
oly562ikonia: you dont know everything ok23:52
ikoniaoly562: it's just an automation script set for iptables to ban abusing hosts23:52
oly562you just dont23:52
ikoniaoly562: you talk nosense23:52
ikoniaoly562: flash is closed source and can't be re-written as adobe hold the source code23:52
oly562i dont care how i said or what matters to you, just that i know flash works fine except for hula vids23:52

oly562thats nice, but flash works fine for me except hula vids23:53
ikoniaoly562: however those hula videos are just a said fact that they probably don't and won't work for you going forward23:53
anygivennameikonia: it is already set to 3 under iptables....or did u mean I should leave the ssh lines as is & set it to 3 in there aswell ?23:53
oly562my flash player locally aslo works for hula vids i download23:53

darkdrgn2k3im getting "No Root Device Found"  when i try to pxeboot my ubuntu kernel23:53
darkdrgn2k3i used dracut to fix ehte kernel23:54
oly562ikonia: its not a matter of support or contracts, its a matter of do you know the work around, yes or no.23:54
ikoniaoly562: well, that's nothing to do with this channel, as they are you modified binaries, good luck with them, but please don't ask for support on them in here23:54
