| nightwalk | hiho: might try testing booting the installer with noapic, nolapic, &/or noacpi. (though you shouldn't run a newly installed system with those options without good reason!) | 00:05 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: it doesn't look like that tutorial says anything about update-grub though? | 00:06 |
| nightwalk | hiho: also, make sure you check the other logs for any indications of what's wrong. | 00:06 |

| cousteau | I've installed ubuntu-desktop without the recommends, and later I've installed indicator-session, indicator-sound, indicator-application and network-manager-gnome. What else do I need to get the network icon on the tray? | 00:06 |
| newuser | So if boot from LiveUSB and install something will the prgram still be there next time i boot? or if i boot a diff comp? | 00:07 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: update-grub is Ubuntu/Debian specific, but all it does is run "grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg", which that tutorial has you do directly. | 00:07 |
| she_dyed | damm i'm impressed by how long you put up with him, ikonia | 00:07 |
| Tom1 | oh okay, sorry, i'm pretty clueless about all of this | 00:07 |
| w3 | could anyone please help me with Simple Backup Suite? it will start backing up then stop 2 seconds later, also, the "scheduling" tab is grayed out. | 00:07 |
| Felip0n | <cousteau> alt + f2 nm-applet | 00:07 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: Running update-grub will have the same effect, and you can do that instead if you want to. | 00:07 |
| cousteau | nm-applet is already running on my system, but it doesn't display on the tray | 00:07 |
| newuser | edbian: So if boot from LiveUSB and install something will the prgram still be there next time i boot? or if i boot a diff comp? | 00:07 |
| cousteau | the volume icon does appear, though | 00:08 |
| edbian | newuser, liveusb persists | 00:08 |
| newuser | edbian: thnx a lot :) | 00:08 |
| IdleOne | IF I have Ubuntu on 1 HDD and Windows on a separate HD with the win boot loader on the same HD as windows, will grub see it and offer it as a boot choice? | 00:09 |
| Felip0n | <cousteau> do you perform a alternate Install of ubuntu? | 00:09 |
| Jordan_U | newuser: It depends on how you setup the live USB. If you setup "persistence" then yes, if not then no. | 00:09 |
| she_dyed | edbian: where would persist er, persist, on the USB itself? | 00:09 |

| earthshade | Can anyone help me? Facebook chat authentication failure | 00:12 |
| Jordan_U | IdleOne: Yes (you'll need to run "sudo update-grub" after adding the windows drive though). | 00:12 |
| dev00 | hi can someone help me i can't format my computer anymore, everytime i try to format with windows vista on bootup i keep getting grubrecover command line | 00:12 |

| domcod | fnordz: ignore me. i didn't know it was wireless. wireless is constantly giving me strange issues. i don't like it | 00:13 |

| seidos | !patience | dev00 | 00:13 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: After completing the tutorial I have the same issue...ubuntu 10.04 is still the only linux installation on the menu | 00:13 |
| ubottu | dev00: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 00:13 |
| _jesse_ | dev00: you are trying to boot from the windows disk? | 00:13 |
| revberaldo | how can I make Ubuntu ask for the password for an encrypted partition during boot? | 00:13 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: Do you have more than one hard drive? | 00:13 |
| zatan | nightwalk, I did that, but it means i Need to run skype and pidgin at once | 00:13 |
| dev00 | no windows is installed on my harddrive | 00:13 |
| Felip0n | <cousteau> Gnome-core it's very ligh much more than ubuntu-desktop. But if you want a light desktop you have to install lxde-base | 00:13 |
| revberaldo | I edited /etc/fstab and /etc/crypttab correctly but it doesn't work. | 00:13 |
| dev00 | its the only thing on there | 00:13 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: no, I only have one | 00:13 |
| nightwalk | dev00: If you don't mind losing what you have on it now, something like 'dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda1 bs=1k count=512' should do the trick | 00:14 |
| dev00 | when i boot it gives me invalid partition error and the recovergrub command line | 00:14 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: Could you run boot info script as explaine here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1291280 and pastebin the RESULTS.txt ? | 00:14 |
| dev00 | yeh i dont mind | 00:14 |
| cousteau | Felip0n: actually, I wanted my gnome desktop, but without some apps I won't be using, such as gwibber, ubuntu one, empathy, rhythmbox... | 00:14 |
| dev00 | dev/sda1 is my hdd nightwalk | 00:14 |
| Jordan_U | nightwalk: dev00: That would need to be of=/dev/sda, not /dev/sda1. | 00:15 |
| nightwalk | dev00: actually, I goofed. it'd be sda in the command above | 00:15 |
| pentester | I am using virtualbox on a corei5 processor. Should I type in 2 or 4 cores? | 00:15 |
| dev00 | ok you lost me | 00:15 |
| nightwalk | dev00: you could also try running the windows recovery console, and do fixmbr or fixboot. That's off topic here, though | 00:15 |
| dev00 | no good | 00:15 |
| dev00 | i tried that | 00:15 |
| dev00 | the recovery console doesnt load | 00:16 |
| w3 | could anyone please help me with Simple Backup Suite? it will start backing up then stop 2 seconds later, also, the "scheduling" tab is grayed out. | 00:16 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: Okay, should I just install it in the live session? | 00:16 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: Yes. | 00:16 |
| seidos | pentester, depends on how much of your systems resources you want to provide to the virtual machine | 00:16 |
| dev00 | nightwalk do i have to specify anything else like drive size in 'dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda1 bs=1k count=512 | 00:16 |
| nightwalk | dev00: 'dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1k count=512' basically zeros out the first 512k of your HD. That'd include the mbr, partition table, etc. The mbr is what we're trying to erase here, btw | 00:17 |

| Jordan_U | dev00: If you are *absolutely* sure that your drive is /dev/sda then this command will remove grub, and any partitions on that drive: "sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda count=1" | 00:17 |
| hanasaki | how do you get nautilus to connect to two smbshares with two different logins? | 00:17 |

| seidos | sarthor, don't know presently. but if you ask again you might want to make it clear that it is not found. | 00:18 |
| Jordan_U | IdleOne: Either change the boot order in your BIOS or install grub to the mbr of the drive with windows (though the latter will mean that you will only be able to boot windows with *both* drives in the computer). | 00:19 |

| PatrickJameson | hey guys, how can I get my wireless back to the way it was when I installed 10.10? I tried messing with ndiswrapper and now lshw says my adaptor is 'unclaimed' | 00:32 |
| juboba | uLinux: nautilus -q | 00:32 |
| fnordz | i'm not really sure if i needed to remove my old drivers from ubuntu before putting in the intel 5100 | 00:32 |
| cousteau | destr0: the problem is that since I don't use backtrack I can't help you much with that | 00:32 |
| fnordz | don't really know how to either | 00:32 |
| juboba | uLinux: no sudo needed | 00:32 |
| uLinux | ITs opening hunddreds ot fabs lool | 00:33 |
| uLinux | tabs | 00:33 |
| cousteau | destr0: I had some problems with an xD card in my netbook, had to enable some lines on the grub | 00:33 |
| destr0 | but it is similar to ubuntu, all the people that i asked for bt4 told me that. | 00:33 |
| cousteau | I hate emoticons. | 00:33 |
| uLinux | :P just killed nautilus | 00:33 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: using apt-get install....I get some errors: removing fglrx...dpkg-divert: mismatch on package | 00:33 |
| Tom1 | errors were encountered while processing: fglrx | 00:33 |
| Tom1 | is that bad? | 00:33 |
| Hilbert | Hey, I keep getting this error gzip -cd gtk+-2.22.0.tar.gz | tar x | 00:33 |
| Hilbert | Sorry wrong paste | 00:34 |
| uLinux | I'm trying to clear a mount point but it says "Transport endpoint is not connected" dammit | 00:34 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: Yes, but it's an unrelated problem. Just continue on to the next step of the guide and we will come back to fix the fglrx problem later. | 00:34 |
| Tom1 | okay | 00:34 |
| Tom1 | when i do grub-install it says "the program 'grub-install' can be found in the following packages: | 00:35 |
| destr0 | hey guys maybe i have to start with a more simple question: how i install drivers for my pro XD memory card. ( i assume if i cant find it , it isn't installed ) | 00:35 |
| w3 | could anyone please help me with Simple Backup Suite? it will start backing up then stop 2 seconds later, also, the "scheduling" tab is grayed out. | 00:35 |
| destr0 | (thanks cousteau for your patience ) | 00:35 |
| Tom1 | and lists 7 packages and says "try apt-get install <selected package>" | 00:35 |
| cousteau | destr0: is backtrack installed or on a live cd? | 00:36 |
| destr0 | full installed friend. | 00:36 |
| iskin | Does anyone know a way to get Systray/Notification in Docky or a way to get access to them without have an extra panel on the Desktop? | 00:36 |
| Hilbert | How do I adjust the PKG_CONFIG_PATH | 00:36 |

| PatrickJameson | how can I get my wireless back to the way it was when I installed 10.10? I tried messing with ndiswrapper and now lshw says my adaptor is 'unclaimed' | 00:36 |
| cousteau | ok, then do sudo gedit /etc/defaults/grub | 00:36 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: though i did apt-get install grub-pc in the previous step | 00:36 |
| Jordan_U | !gksudo | cousteau | 00:36 |
| ubottu | cousteau: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 00:36 |
| destr0 | ok typing. | 00:36 |
| cousteau | destr0: sorry, better use gksudo | 00:37 |
| destr0 | command not found | 00:37 |
| cousteau | (my fault, sorry) | 00:37 |
| destr0 | ok, thanks :) | 00:37 |
| destr0 | thats better | 00:37 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: Run "apt-get -f install" ant pastebin the output. | 00:37 |
| anthon | hello any one know why the .1 update appears on all ubuntu distribution? what does it do? | 00:38 |
| destr0 | it doesn't work :/ | 00:38 |
| cousteau | anthon: lucid 10.04.1? it's like a "service pack" | 00:38 |
| braintorch | Hi. I updated to maverick and I have no lfe-channel on audigy 4 now. is anybody know how to fix that? | 00:39 |
| cousteau | actually, it means that if you download the CD, it will be more up to date than the old 10.04 one | 00:39 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/519451/ here it is | 00:39 |
| delinquentme | So im trying to play a topgear DVD .. and its spinning up and everything is just fine .. till i try and play it .. it simply says an error occurred ... no numbers or anything else ..wont open up in VLC or "movie player" | 00:40 |
| cousteau | destr0: then figure out what text editors does backtrack have, and type gksudo <name_of_the_editor> /etc/defaults/grub | 00:40 |
| anthon | cousteau okay. okay thats good. do know what it does? does it disable features? or in any way changing the system? | 00:40 |
| cousteau | sorry... /etc/default/grub (without the "s") | 00:41 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: Type yes then enter, then pastebin the rest of the output. | 00:41 |
| destr0 | ok thanks ill get that information and i come back here. | 00:41 |
| destr0 | thanks anyway | 00:41 |
| cousteau | anthon: it's just more updated | 00:41 |
| destr0 | (maybe its better to run BT4 in a VM with ubuntu for OS) | 00:41 |
| anthon | cousteau: okay. do you know any where i can read about this update perhaps? | 00:42 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: this is all of it (repeating what i pasted before as well) http://paste.ubuntu.com/519452/ | 00:42 |
| === Pinna is now known as Georgia | ||
| Jordan_U | anthon: There is no single ".1" update. The .1 release simply means that they decided to make a new CD image will all of the updates up to that point in time. | 00:42 |
| anthon | jorda_u: okay. cool. | 00:43 |
| === Georgia is now known as Rinne | ||
| Metalan | I want to change permissions on a folder, but the dialog doesn't let me. | 00:43 |

| Metalan | I try to change the group from "plugdev" to "users" and it doesn't let me | 00:43 |
| === Rinne is now known as Pinna | ||
| Metalan | it also doesn't let me change the permission value for "others" | 00:44 |

| === Banne is now known as Pinna | ||
| Metalan | (This is running nautilus as root btw) | 00:44 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: It looks like your upgrade didn't work completely as xorg-driver-fglrx is only a virtual package in Ubuntu 10.10 | 00:44 |
| airolds | join #paparazzi | 00:45 |

| Tom1 | so it should not be on my system anymore if the upgrade worked? | 00:46 |
| Hilbert | Why doesn't this work sudo apt-get install libgtk-2.0? | 00:46 |
| IdleOne | Hilbert: apt-cache policy libgtk-2.0 | 00:47 |
| IdleOne | is it installed? | 00:47 |
| cousteau | Hilbert: "doesn't work"? | 00:48 |
| Metalan | nm just fixed it with the drive's umask | 00:50 |
| c0mpub0mb | right now, i just installed ubuntu 10.10 and my internet seems really slow, basically dns lookup takes forever and a week before it gets a lookup on the ip address | 00:51 |
| c0mpub0mb | i turned off one of my internet devices to see if that was the culprit and still slow as molasis, but once it gets the dns lookup it's fast to d/l | 00:51 |
| DrManhattan | disable ipv6 | 00:52 |
| c0mpub0mb | DrManhattan: i already tried doing that. | 00:52 |
| tommis | c0mpub0mb use different dns server | 00:52 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: I'm not sure exactly what's happened. I didn't realize that a package could leave a dpkg-diversion behind after being removed. | 00:52 |
| c0mpub0mb | hmm... | 00:52 |
| braintorch | nevermind. I just fixed 5.1 sound. The cause was a pulseaudio that rise from ashes wirh update to maverick and crashed my audio setup. | 00:53 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: I need to leave for a few hours, how much longer are you going to be here? | 00:53 |
| DrManhattan | c0mpub0mb, it might not be completely disabled yet - do an lsmod and see if ipv6 is in there | 00:53 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: okay, are there options other than complete reinstall of 10.10? i'd like to keep the software I have installed if possible (mostly a copy of matlab that i don't have the disc for anymore) | 00:53 |
| Tom1 | I need to leave, too, but can be back later if you will be back | 00:54 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: Are you booted from an Ubuntu 10.10 LiveCD? | 00:54 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: Yes | 00:54 |
| Tom1 | (I'm chatting from my laptop on 10.04) but am using a live 10.10 LiveCD on my desktop that you've been helping me with | 00:55 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: Ok, then there is another way to hopefully at least get you booting again. Can you pastebin the output of "mount" from a new terminal (not the one that you ran chroot in)? | 00:55 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: http://paste.ubuntu.com/519457/ here it is | 00:56 |
| PatrickJameson | how can I get my wireless back to the way it was when I installed 10.10? I tried messing with ndiswrapper and now lshw says my adaptor is 'unclaimed' | 00:57 |
| brama_ | hi everyone! can you please tell me how to list only the files (not dirs) in a directory. it need to be printed in a file | 00:57 |
| Pici | brama_: find . -maxdepth 1 -type f | 00:58 |
| c0mpub0mb | DrManhattan: i just updated my DNS server with opendns and man it is fast. | 00:59 |
| c0mpub0mb | i was using RR dns and it was fricken horrible! | 00:59 |
| c0mpub0mb | :'( | 00:59 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: From the same terminal you ran mount in run "sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda" | 00:59 |
| c0mpub0mb | every url call took like 10-15 seconds to resolve. | 00:59 |
| brama_ | COOL! How can i get it without ./ ? | 00:59 |
| c0mpub0mb | they have some major dns issues at RoadRunner | 00:59 |
| c0mpub0mb | tommis: i think that was mean't for you. | 01:00 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: "installation finished. No error reported." | 01:00 |
| tommis | c0mpub0mb what wasn't? | 01:00 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: Good. Try rebooting. | 01:00 |
| patojamriska | hello | 01:00 |
| patojamriska | ^^ | 01:01 |
| tommis | hello | 01:01 |
| c0mpub0mb | anyways.. tommis good idea, i changed the dns server and it fixed my problems | 01:01 |
| c0mpub0mb | i originally disabled the ipv6 stuff and that didn't seem to help | 01:01 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: okay, no i have many, many boot options | 01:01 |
| furi | i am trying to get the n52te pad to work, but no matter what i do, it is always set to the default mapping. what should i do? | 01:01 |
| patojamriska | sorry to bother you guys, but does anyone have any experience in openqrm 4.7? | 01:01 |
| Tom1 | is linux 2.6.35-22 10.10? | 01:02 |
| icekk | WHat does it mean when backend is using 50% cpu? amaranth | 01:02 |
| tommis | Tom1 yep | 01:02 |
| Amaranth | icekk: That you have some program named 'backend' using an entire core | 01:02 |
| brama_ | find . -maxdepth 1 -type f will do! Thank you very much! | 01:02 |
| icekk | lol what is backend? something ubuntu needs/ | 01:03 |
| edbian | icekk, the front end is the gui. the back-end does the work | 01:03 |
| Hilbert | Hey, how do I update gtk | 01:03 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: i tried to use "linux 2.6.35-22 generic" and it scrolled a lot of output on the screen and then the display went out | 01:04 |
| icekk | edbian why is backend using 50% all the time? | 01:04 |
| earthshade | For the drop down menu from the little envelope in the top right corner, is there any sort of notification that appear when there is a new email? | 01:04 |
| edbian | icekk, That's ur problem to figure out :) | 01:04 |
| edbian | icekk, Perhaps it's doing something that's hard? | 01:04 |
| patojamriska | Im trying to make LVM images but i cannot see them mounted as stated on the documentation | 01:05 |
| Jordan_U | Tom1: Sorry, I have to go. I will be back later today as long as my power doesn't go out (bad storms locally). | 01:06 |
| Tom1 | Jordan_U: no problem, thank you very much...any idea when you'll be back? | 01:06 |
| Stormx2 | Can I connect a windows and an ubuntu machine together such that the ubuntu machine can see the windows machine's smb shares? I'm doing a backup of ~40GB and 400kB/s is pushing it | 01:06 |

| furi | i am trying to get the n52te pad to work, but no matter what i do, it is always set to the default mapping. what should i do? | 01:07 |
| Stormx2 | newuser, yeah I'm currently using samba. I mean via a direct ethernet connection rather than thru a hub. | 01:07 |
| tortoise | could someone shoot me a link to get me started with samba? | 01:07 |
| clean | tortoise: google "ubuntu documentation samba" | 01:08 |
| newuser | stormx2: even thru direct connection each comp will be assigned an ip rite? | 01:08 |
| newuser | just use that ip for looking into the share | 01:08 |
| Stormx2 | newuser, you tell me. I assume the ubuntu machine will act as a DHCP server | 01:08 |
| bfinch | o.k.. this is a newbie question.... i just successfully built a package with "dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -us -uc" .... now what is the proper invocation to install it ? | 01:09 |
| DasEi | !samba | tortoise | 01:09 |
| ubottu | tortoise: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 01:09 |
| newuser | Stormx2, 2 winows machine can be connected never tried 1 ubuntu 1 windows | 01:09 |
| Stormx2 | bfinch, you built a deb package? Just dpkg -i thedeb.deb | 01:09 |
| bfinch | cool | 01:09 |
| bfinch | thanks | 01:09 |
| Stormx2 | newuser, I'm that windows-to-windows works fine. | 01:09 |
| Stormx2 | I accidentally the verb | 01:10 |
| Stormx2 | I'm aware* | 01:10 |
| newuser | Stormx2, ubuntu - windows is not working? | 01:10 |
| patojamriska | Just need to know if I have to mount the lvm volumes manually | 01:10 |
| patojamriska | because openqrm does not see my created volumes :( | 01:10 |
| newuser | Stormx2, atleast windows machine shud act as dhcp | 01:10 |
| Stormx2 | newuser, if it was I wouldn't be here | 01:11 |
| newuser | if not ubuntu | 01:11 |
| newuser | Stormx2, i am a newbie too.... have tried installing dhcp on ubuntu? | 01:12 |
| furi | i am trying to get the n52te pad to work, but no matter what i do, it is always set to the default mapping. what should i do? | 01:13 |

| f00bar80 | i'm on ubuntu 10.04, is there any guide on how to setup exim to use my domain name to send out email messages ??? or even point me to the correct requirements., i've tried to google but i'm not sure about what do i need exactly to set for my domain name, any comment ? | 01:14 |
| pyro_ | earthshade If you configure evolution as mail client I think it comes out of the box, for other clients such as thunderbird you need an add on | 01:15 |
| f00bar80 | pyro_, what about exim ? | 01:15 |
| pyro_ | f00bar80 I don't know about exim | 01:16 |
| earthshade | pyro_: I have evolution configured already | 01:17 |
| id10t | 'lo all | 01:17 |
| delinquentme | ok so ive installed a few different libraries and im still unable to play DVDs ... sound works just fine .. however no video .. 10.04 tried out mplayer .. and VLC media players | 01:18 |
| f00bar80 | any comment ??? | 01:18 |

| id10t | delinquentme, did you use medibuntu for it or the regular ubuntu repositories? | 01:18 |
| delinquentme | regular ones! | 01:19 |
| DrManhattan | c0mpub0mb, im glad you got that worked out | 01:19 |
| delinquentme | how do i use medibuntu? | 01:19 |
| fnordz | so i just did a iwconfig in terminal and it reports my thinkpad as IEEE 802.11abg w/ bitrate of 54mb/sec --- doesn't appear i'm getting wireless n w/ my intel 5100 :/ | 01:19 |
| pyro_ | earthshade, mm, I believe it should work. I'm not using evolution right now so I may be wrong | 01:19 |
| id10t | delinquentme, uninstall 'em and use medibuntu | 01:19 |
| hazard | My previous Ubuntu installs have all been dual boot, and there was automagically a listing in the boot loader for memtest86. This time, it's th eonly OS on here, and never loads a boot loader menu for me to choose from. How do I then access memtest86? | 01:19 |
| id10t | hazard - if you use startupmanager you can configure all that | 01:19 |
| rdw200169 | Stormx2: perhaps it would be easier to just use a quick ssh server on windows... http://sshwindows.sourceforge.net/, accessing ssh from ubuntu is a piece of cake. none of that smb hell | 01:19 |

| gordan_freeman | hazard, one option would be to just run memtest86 from a cd: http://www.memtest86.com/download.html | 01:20 |
| DasEi | hazard: or modify /etc/default/grub | 01:21 |
| f00bar80 | ppl any comment | 01:21 |

| DasEi | f00bar80: haven't seen your previous post.. | 01:22 |

| DasEi | f00bar80: I don't use exim, but as a shot in the dark I'd look in /etc/default for it's config | 01:24 |
| DasEi | f00bar80: lucid ? | 01:24 |
| earthshade | shcherbak: 10.04 | 01:25 |
| shcherbak | earthshade: and more... do you have any notification? do you have listed number of new mails in mail-applet menu? | 01:25 |
| f00bar80 | DasEi, yea, the first think i was asking about is my domain, any specific settings or requirements needs to be set ? | 01:25 |
| earthshade | No | 01:25 |
| DasEi | f00bar80: give me a minute , I'll put exim on a vm | 01:25 |
| shcherbak | earthshade: but when you start evolution, you can see your mail account in menu? | 01:26 |
| hazard | DasEi: Figures. It's not a simple grub.1st. It's a grub.d/nn_$x which I don't really grok. | 01:26 |
| matts45acp | so i ever have to worry about viruses and stuff with unbuntu | 01:26 |
| f00bar80 | DasEi want to set the domain firstly to use my dynamic IP i've already got dynDNS , | 01:26 |
| id10t | f00bar80, very good howtos on setting up a mail server on howtoforge.com - check the "perfect server" set up guides, and if you are wanting to run a domain or two i can strongly recommend ispconfig | 01:26 |
| DasEi | hazard: you use grub2, the default in lucid ? | 01:26 |
| earthshade | shcherbak: Brb ill get back to you | 01:27 |
| hazard | DasEi: I didn't do anything special during install, so I have to presume so. | 01:28 |

| fennecfox | im also having trouble | 01:28 |
| DasEi | hazard: so see above to get the menu viewable, you can set the timeout there, then pressing left Ctrl will pop up grub | 01:29 |
| id10t | Tyler__, can you just download a livecd and burn it and use that on the mac? | 01:29 |
| fennecfox | I am installing ubuntu 10.10 64 bit partition and its not acting right I believe, for one the live cd (ive burned more than one) doesn't start Gparted partition editor, it shows that its starting but just stops and dissapeards | 01:30 |
| Tyler__ | no, I can't. Mac doesn't like to boot ubuntu. Firewire is the only thing that works on that external HD now | 01:30 |
| sakekasi | I use 10.10 and java does not render the contents of windows ocasionally. How do I fix this? | 01:30 |
| hazard | DasEi: I looked for the file you said. /etc/grub/default and /etc/grub/ didn't exist. THere is a grub.d/, but that doesn't have a default in it. | 01:31 |

| hazard | DasEi: Awesome, thanks a heap. | 01:33 |
| DasEi | hazard: many configurable files have moved from /etc/ to /etc/default | 01:34 |

| fennecfox | ok ubottu, i will copy paste my question again sorry: I am installing ubuntu 10.10 64 bit partition and its not acting right I believe, for one the live cd (ive burned more than one) doesn't start Gparted partition editor, it shows that its starting but just stops and dissapears, I have more information if needed (having trouble installing partions) | 01:34 |

| ioannes_no | hello! Everytime I enter a cd/dvd into my DVD drive, I need to reboot my computer in order to use it. is there an easy way to mount/refresh the contents of the disc without doing this? | 01:35 |
| delinquentme | fennecfox, md5 sum the downloaded ubuntu iso :D | 01:35 |
| matts45acp | do i ever have to worry about viruses and stuff with unbuntu | 01:36 |
| fennecfox | delinquentme thanks for your help, although im not up to slang what do you mean exactly =/ | 01:36 |
| DasEi | ioannes_no: why do you have to reboot ? box freezing ? | 01:36 |
| matts45acp | can someone tell me if i ever have to worry about viruses and stuff with unbuntu | 01:37 |
| DasEi | !virus | matts45acp | 01:37 |
| ubottu | matts45acp: Antivirus is something you don't need on !Linux, except where files are then passed to windows computers (perhaps using samba), See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus | 01:37 |
| balr0g | hey guys, little question, before my terminal handles links (http:// ...) now doesn't, why? what happened? | 01:37 |
| delinquentme | md5sum is a way to check the validity of a downloaded file ... google "ubuntu 10.04 md5 sum" | 01:37 |
| delinquentme | and get an app that lets you compare md5 sums | 01:37 |
| ioannes_no | DasEi,no, nothing happens, it just doesn't load the cd, the box works perfectly | 01:37 |
| kaie- | any good photoediting suggestions.. something around like lines of aperture or lightroom | 01:37 |
| DasEi | matts45acp: there are very few viruses for ubuntu, rather rootkits n backdoors, but for regalry patched system the answer to this is like no | 01:37 |
| delinquentme | it gives you a string of characters that verifies the quality and structure of the file you downloaded | 01:38 |
| DasEi | ioannes_no: lucid ? | 01:38 |
| delinquentme | ... im suggesting that perhaps your ubuntu .iso is bad | 01:38 |
| a1fa | can memtest be executed from within ubuntu live desktop? | 01:38 |

| destr0 | thanks for your consideration | 01:48 |
| Guest99464 | to install open office just type into a terminal "sudo apt-get install openoffice" | 01:48 |

| balr0g | histo, ubuntu and yes, gnome | 01:50 |

| id10t | Guest99464, just ask your question | 01:51 |
| histo | illdecree: you are talking about the gdm login screen right? | 01:51 |
| Guest99464 | guys | 01:51 |
| DasEi | ioannes_no: nah, stop rebooting it'as not win | 01:51 |

| Guest99464 | ok thanks | 01:52 |
| ne7work | I need some comment for my new one web project please :) | 01:52 |
| id10t | Guest99464, can't do it w/o names unless you use entries in your hosts file to fake dns... but you'll still need to give it a name... thats why it is called "name based virtual hosting" | 01:52 |
| Guest99464 | in the ubuntu irc server? | 01:52 |
| ioannes_no | DasEi, yes | 01:52 |
| DasEi | f00bar80: did you ran the dpkg-recon of exim ? | 01:53 |

| balr0g | what could be, this links issue | 01:53 |
| SubCool | could someone assist. when i try to boot up after login, my KDE crashes, kdeinit4 bus error | 01:53 |
| illdecree | histo: that's the problem i'm having. the resolution changes once i log in. i've even set it to a different setting in a second acct, and still have the same problem. from my previous experience (which is limited) with ubuntu, i went looking for xorg.conf, but i can't find it in /x11 | 01:53 |
| DasEi | ioannes_no: under apps >> nautilus.. | 01:53 |
| slowlearner | Guest99464: /etc/hosts + apache2 + vhosts | 01:53 |
| histo | illdecree: yeah xorg.conf doesn't exist by default anymore | 01:53 |
| Guest99464 | ok | 01:53 |
| f00bar80 | DasEi, no | 01:53 |
| ioannes_no | DasEi, yes. | 01:53 |
| histo | illdecree: you can try creating one though and see if that helps | 01:53 |
| illdecree | hmm... i might have to do that. i'm still a bit too new to do that i think. i'll look into it though. | 01:54 |
| balr0g | what happened to my terminal links handle? | 01:54 |
| DasEi | ioannes_no: preferences, check the boxes are set automount (and automount open) if you like | 01:54 |
| illdecree | histo: maybe you can help me with another problem i'm having: i can't get boxee installed. i keep getting an error when i run the .deb | 01:54 |
| histo | illdecree: it can follow the same format as your old ones | 01:55 |
| SubCool | ops | 01:55 |
| DasEi | f00bar80: so follow given link , there it is all set | 01:55 |

| illdecree | histo: "dependency is not satisfiable: libdirectfb-1.0-0|libdirectfb-1.2-0" | 01:56 |
| ABGD | i researched udevd i understand its part of the kernel i'm just not understanding why this is so high | 01:56 |
| spinningcompass | bohemien: What does the screen say? | 01:56 |
| histo | illdecree: what version of ubuntu arey ou running? | 01:57 |
| illdecree | meerkat x64 | 01:57 |
| bohemien | spinningcompass: nothing, only the background image and mouse | 01:57 |
| shauno | ABGD: udev assigns device names under the /dev fs, amongst other things. it shouldn't be that high tho, not for any noticeable amount of time | 01:57 |
| histo | illdecree: yeah you'll probably have to wait untill they release a 10.10 version | 01:57 |
| illdecree | histo: i've seen a lot of links on google about this, and they all refer to a download that is never available when i go for it... odd | 01:57 |
| bohemien | spinningcompass: i tried the no-fail boot but wont work either | 01:58 |
| spinningcompass | bohemien: Try installing 10.04 instead | 01:58 |
| spinningcompass | bohemien: ....and wait until 10.10 stabilizes. | 01:58 |
| furi | i am trying to get the n52te pad to work, but no matter what i do, it is always set to the default mapping. what should i do? | 01:58 |
| histo | illdecree: yeah there only download is for 10.04 that's why you are getting dependancy issues. | 01:58 |
| furi | i've tried pystromo | 01:58 |
| furi | still it's default | 01:58 |
| histo | illdecree: you could try downgrading that package, but I wouldn't. People in #boxee might provide a beta or something | 01:58 |
| illdecree | histo: i'll check that out. Thanks a lot for your help! a noob like me needs it! :-) | 01:59 |

| tortoise | I've been having this problem when I'm trying to restart things and I'm not sure why | 01:59 |
| shauno | ABGD: does it happen constantly? or just when certain devices are added | 02:00 |
| ABGD | shauno: another issue i'm having is my ubuntu system randomly would log off when left idle | 02:00 |
| bohemien | spinningcompass: how can I go back to 10,04% | 02:00 |
| ABGD | shauno: it happens regularly, i never add other hardware devices | 02:00 |
| spinningcompass | bohemien: (There are other options, of course, but...) Download 10.04; install it; use it. When 10.10 has stabilized, upgrade. | 02:00 |

| tortoise | levi, what makes you say that? | 02:36 |
| jemadux | Dr_Willis: but some packages in maverick are same in lucid | 02:36 |
| uLinux | tortoise: you can start learning how to create a SSH server for example | 02:36 |
| Storlek | Dr_Willis / gordan_freeman: ok, that won't really help me as far as I can tell. I'm not running Ubuntu and I have no idea what packages to download, and everything synaptic knows about on the machine in question is already installed. It's just whatever was on the install CD. | 02:36 |
| tortoise | uLinux, that sounds interesting. I know a little bit about SSH. What could I do with the server? | 02:36 |
| wizz | hi all | 02:36 |
| glitchd | just installed 10.10 can someone help me understand how to setup pae so i can use all 8 gigs of ram? | 02:36 |
| tortoise | I have a dumb question to. Are you guys typing out my name or is there something in the irc that directs things to me? | 02:36 |
| gordan_freeman | SpaceBass: perhaps temporarily disable iptables. | 02:36 |
| uLinux | tortoise: if you are accessing internet from a public wireless you can encrypt your connection using your SSH server | 02:37 |
| levi | tortoise: You could login on the machine remotly with ssh | 02:37 |
| Jordan_U | glitchd: Is there a reason you don't want to use 64 bit Ubuntu? | 02:37 |
| sakekasi | how do I change my 10.10 from 32 bit to 64 bit? | 02:37 |
| Storlek | sakekasi: reinstall, with the 64 bit version | 02:37 |
| tortoise | That sounds like fun. | 02:37 |
| glitchd | ive always found more problems with 64 bit | 02:37 |
| wizz | hi all, do someone know how to check the gateway address ip? | 02:37 |
| tortoise | Any links to get me started? | 02:37 |
| glitchd | Jordan_U, like dumb problems | 02:37 |
| corrytonapple | sakekasi: You will have to redownload the image and reinstall | 02:37 |
| Jordan_U | !pae | glitchd | 02:37 |
| ubottu | glitchd: 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 info | 02:37 |
| gordan_freeman | SpaceBass: this will tell you if your web server is listening on port 443: `netstat -tap | grep https` | 02:37 |
| levi | tortoise: man sshd | 02:37 |
| ejv | you don't need 64bit to use 8 gigs of ram, you can compile high memory support into his kernel.... | 02:37 |
| levi | and google sshd | 02:37 |
| jemadux | glitchd: in 64bit is very good if your RAM is over 3 GB | 02:38 |
| tortoise | okay | 02:38 |
| sakekasi | so I can't just swap out the kernels? | 02:38 |
| gordan_freeman | SpaceBass: this will tell you if your web server is listening on port 80: `netstat -tap | grep http` | 02:38 |
| glitchd | jemadux, yes i understand this, but i have always had other problems | 02:38 |
| glitchd | jemadux, just things not working correctly | 02:38 |
| uLinux | tortoise: you can also take a look at SSH security which is important http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-unix-bsd-openssh-server-best-practices.html | 02:38 |
| Jordan_U | sakekasi: You can, but then all of your applications and libraries would still be 32 bit, and individual applications would be limited to a 3 GiG virtual address space. | 02:39 |
| Dr_Willis | I cant even recall the last time i saw a 64bit vs 32bit issue.. | 02:39 |
| glitchd | jemadux, so i found a healthy medium of using 32 bit with pae so i could use all the ram i have | 02:39 |
| glitchd | it worked fine in 10.04 | 02:39 |
| SpaceBass | gordan_freeman, thanks - it is listening, as is the lighthttp on 8080 | 02:39 |
| rbellamy | is there an easy way to tell what soft/hard links a package creates on install? | 02:39 |
| glitchd | jemadux, it worked fine in 10.04 fo rme | 02:39 |
| Dr_Willis | I also have seen reviews/benchmarks that state that a pae system is slower then a actual 64bit system. So i will stick to 64bit for the foreseeable future. | 02:39 |
| DasEi | Dr_Willis: well, foreign apps sometimes , aka Zattoo, but native ubuntu I can't rember, too | 02:39 |
| gordan_freeman | SpaceBass: can you connect to your web server locally? `lynx http://localhost` | 02:40 |
| glitchd | really i just need to know what packages to pick in synaptic | 02:40 |
| Storlek | so, no other ways to get packages onto a disconnected box? :[ | 02:40 |
| Jordan_U | glitchd: See the guide from ubottu. | 02:40 |
| glitchd | Storlek, download them on a connect machine and transfer them over? | 02:40 |
| SpaceBass | gordan_freeman, yes - that was one of my first troubleshooting steps...gotta love lynx | 02:40 |
| Irok | Is there some way to have the default gateway change when I activate a VPN connection? | 02:41 |
| gordan_freeman | SpaceBass: :) | 02:41 |
| Storlek | glitchd: yeah, the download bit is what's getting me. I can't see any way to satisfy dependencies and so on without being on the machine | 02:41 |
| levi | tortoise: most irc client have nick completition like bash :) so I type torto<TAB> and type message | 02:41 |
| Storlek | and going back and forth trying one package, then listing all its unsatisfied dependencies, etc., is really quite tedious | 02:41 |
| glitchd | Storlek, u got me on that one then my friend | 02:41 |
| gordan_freeman | SpaceBass: well `sudo iptables -L` will list any host based firewalls you may have that may be blocking inbound traffic | 02:41 |
| DasEi | Irok: you can set the gateway in /etc/network/interfaces (and restart networking afterwards) | 02:41 |
| tortoise | levi: I see | 02:41 |
| glitchd | Storlek, good luck tho.. | 02:41 |
| levi | :) | 02:41 |
| sakekasi | is there any way to keep my configurations between ubuntu installs? | 02:42 |
| tortoise | levi: Does that show up in a different color for you? | 02:42 |
| Troll | hi | 02:42 |
| === Troll is now known as Guest16759 | ||
| Irok | DasEi: Yeah, thx... guess that'll work, but I'd want it to change automatically when I use my VPN connection | 02:42 |
| Storlek | I wouldn't mind if there was some script or whatever that just generated a flat list of all dependencies to a package that aren't shipped on the install CD | 02:42 |
| SpaceBass | gordan_freeman, thanks - I'm better with ps, don't really know my way around iptables | 02:42 |
| Storlek | because that'd answer my question, more or less | 02:42 |
| levi | tortoise: its depend on irc client but yes | 02:42 |
| tortoise | levi: okay, thanks | 02:42 |
| uLinux | Storlek: you can download the .deb files and install | 02:42 |
| Storlek | I might end up with more stuff than I'd need, but disk space is cheap ... gasoline isn't :) | 02:42 |
| levi | no problem tortoise | 02:42 |
| Storlek | uLinux: ok, how? | 02:42 |

| ubottu | Storlek: If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script. Alternatively, try http://ubottu.com/ljl/apt/ - See also !APTonCD | 02:43 |
| Storlek | jrib: that didn't help last time either | 02:43 |
| jrib | Storlek: it's the answer to your question, so you have to be more specific | 02:43 |
| gordan_freeman | SpaceBass: well `sudo /etc/init.d/iptables stop` will stop any host based firewall rules if you do have any | 02:43 |
| Storlek | jrib: I have been more specific | 02:44 |
| Storlek | jrib: this box has never been online and every package it's aware of isinstalled | 02:44 |
| jrib | Storlek: I meant you have to be more specific about why !offline did not help you | 02:44 |
| Storlek | jrib: I just told you | 02:44 |
| Storlek | How would I "check the desired packages in Synaptic" if they do not exist | 02:44 |
| gordan_freeman | SpaceBass: `sudo apparmor_status` will allow you to view the current status of AppArmor profiles | 02:45 |
| jrib | Storlek: !offline does not just suggest synaptic | 02:45 |
| uLinux | jrib: it doesn't have internet connection on the machine | 02:45 |
| SpaceBass | thank gordan_freeman - the troubleshooting help is much appreciated! | 02:45 |
| Storlek | jrib: yes, aptoncd doesn't help because I don't have ubuntu elsewhere, and that link is useless because itonly goes up to dapper | 02:45 |
| DasEi | Irok:is it openvpn you're using ? | 02:45 |

| venilsurya | The window borders in my system keep disappearing. I've installed compiz fusion icon, and clicking that brings it back. Is there a way to stop the borders from disappearing in the first place? | 02:46 |
| jrib | Storlek: it goes up to intrepid I guess. What are you trying to install? | 02:46 |
| Storlek | or intrepid. I guess I'm reading it backward. (Why no versions?) | 02:46 |
| Storlek | jrib: all sorts of packages from the 'universe' repo. | 02:46 |
| jrib | Storlek: ljl probably just hasn't updated it recently | 02:46 |
| Dr_Willis | venilsurya: compiz is crashing.. for some reason. You could just stop using compuiz and use metacity instead | 02:46 |
| SubCool | i am running into an KDEInit4 Crash that is preventing me from completely booting into KDE, Can anyone help me fix it. I cant seem to find a fix. Maybe Uninstalling it and reinstalling it? | 02:46 |
| jrib | Storlek: can't you use a live cd on a machine with an internet connection? | 02:47 |
| venilsurya | Dr_Willis: I like eyecandy :( | 02:47 |
| Storlek | jrib: splain | 02:47 |
| Storlek | Install ubuntu elsewhere? | 02:47 |
| jrib | Storlek: just boot from the cd, you can run it off the cd | 02:47 |
| Storlek | And then what? | 02:47 |
| Dr_Willis | venilsurya: from a termnial next time run just 'compiz' and watch it to see if compiz crashes again. and report the bug/check the forums. | 02:47 |
| Storlek | install the packages, copy them...? | 02:47 |
| jrib | Storlek: do the synaptic thing or --download-only or whatever to apt | 02:47 |
| jrib | Storlek: or that | 02:48 |
| venilsurya | Dr_Willis: Will do that. Thanks. | 02:48 |
| venilsurya | Does anyone know whether this problem is still there is 10.10? | 02:48 |
| venilsurya | I have 10.04 | 02:48 |
| Storlek | well, I guess I could throw the iso at vbox or something and do it that way. It seems like a really disgusting way to do that, though. | 02:48 |
| gordan_freeman | SpaceBass: so netstat tells us that apache is listening on :80. lynx tells us that we can connect to apache locally. so apache is in fact alive and kicking. | 02:49 |
| jrib | Storlek: why not just use a live cd? | 02:49 |
| Storlek | jrib: that is what I meant | 02:49 |
| jrib | Storlek: either that or poke ljl to update the script I suppose | 02:49 |
| DasEi | SubCool: asked in #kubuntu ? | 02:50 |
| Storlek | I'm not going to burn a disc and close all my programs and reboot for that :) | 02:50 |

| Irok | DasEi: Yes | 02:52 |
| andai | I killed the panel so now alt+f2 works and i can´t start the panel | 02:52 |
| DasEi | irok : check under the networks connections tab | 02:52 |
| === Pinna is now known as Epwna | ||
| gordan_freeman | SpaceBass: you may have to actually do the following to completely disable apparmor until reboot: `sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor stop; sudo update-rc.d -f apparmor remove` | 02:52 |
| levi | tortoise: good advice dont try to login as root on irc | 02:52 |
| jrib | Storlek: I meant "--print-uris", not "--no-download" before by the way | 02:53 |

| tim__ | New to Kubuntu. Downloaded kooka and extracted. How do I complete the install? | 02:56 |
| tortoise | levi: I don't even know how to try to do that in irc lol | 02:56 |
| Storlek | jrib: no harm, I always check manpages before running commands people tell me on irc :) | 02:57 |
| levi | tortoise: I know, it was only advice ;) . For example running console irc client | 02:57 |
| jemadux | what is your fav distro except ubuntu ? | 02:57 |
| uLinux | levi: i dont get why.. | 02:57 |

| tortoise | levi: ahh okay :P | 02:57 |
| peepsalot | anyone here play games on emulators? looking for something that works well for NES. i hasve gfceu from repo's but it doesn't work right. i just hear really fast sound and no graphics | 02:57 |
| uLinux | levi: just to avoid being banned? | 02:57 |
| uLinux | (sorry off-topic) | 02:57 |
| Irok | DasEi: Ah. Some obscure setting fixed that. To be precise: Under the IPv4-tab of the VPN connection you have a button called "Routing" or something (i have norwegian translation). If you untick "use this connection for internal resources only" all traffic is routed via the VPN | 02:58 |
| tacomaster | so upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10 will get rid of all my packages like medibuntu, mplayer, cario-docks? | 02:58 |
| Irok | DasEi: So thank you :D | 02:58 |
| levi | uLinux: yes, many servers ban root users from irc servers. Because its unsecure | 02:58 |
| tortoise | uLinux: what was it that you said I could do with sshd server again? | 02:58 |
| DasEi | Irok: crypple all the way, np | 02:59 |
| tim__ | can anyone help with that? | 02:59 |
| shauno | it's not so much that irc's insecure, more than irc clients have been historically insecure | 02:59 |
| uLinux | tortoise: scroll up:P and google you will learn | 02:59 |
| Licuadora | hello | 02:59 |
| Storlek | with sshd you can control the universe | 02:59 |
| tortoise | uLinux: Lol. I've been googling ever since you told me. The man pages are confusing me too. But, I will keep googling. | 03:00 |

| Dr_Willis | Licuadora: check the forums. theres some known issues with G-E | 03:02 |
| SubCool | thanks for suggesting.. | 03:02 |
| tim__ | HELLO can anyone give me some advice on that? | 03:03 |
| gordan_freeman | tim__: perhaps install "simple-scan"? `sudo aptitude install simple-scan` | 03:03 |
| furi | this is getting extremely annoying, i've been trying to get an answer for the past 30 minutes, if not an hour, and things are getting really frustrating. i'm trying to get this n52te to work on 10.10, and i have tried pystromo already. it doesn't appear to work at all, and neither do the exe's in the install disc. can someone just help me? | 03:03 |
| tim__ | gordan_freeman: why "simple-scan" it's called kooka | 03:04 |
| * fizzOuNet Go to ===> #Paname.us Shell Gratuit !!! [Sponso : ON] [Recrute : ON] | 03:04 | |
| furi | i forgot to mention that the buttons and such on the n52te work fine, but i can't remap it. | 03:04 |
| gordan_freeman | tim__: i know. but "simple-scan" has a debian package ;) | 03:04 |
| === epicbig is now known as biagidp | ||
| tim__ | gordan_freeman: what does that mean "has a debian package"? Do you mean that simple-scan is just another scanning program? | 03:05 |
| gordan_freeman | furi: n52te - nifty piece of hardware | 03:05 |
| Lxndr | How can I, using only programs I can install on ubuntu (without WINE), view webcams on yahoo's chat program? Or does this remain an impossibility? | 03:06 |
| gordan_freeman | tim__: yea, it's a different scanning application. it may not be exactly what you want, but it may meet your requirements. it's simple to install which is why i recommended it ;) | 03:06 |
| uLinux | tortoise: search on youtube ;) i learn many things by watching tutorials | 03:07 |
| tim__ | gordan_freeman: I already have kooka downloaded and extracted into a folder on my system. Should I just type install kooka? | 03:07 |
| ubuntunoobz | does any1 know if there are graphic cards that plug into your express port on your laptop? and if so are they supported on ubuntu? | 03:07 |
| gordan_freeman | tim__: is there a "README" file? `./install` *may* just work. I've never installed that particular piece of software before. Try the README file. | 03:08 |
| SubCool | ubuntunoobz, i dont think so, im googling it now. | 03:09 |
| furi | gordan_freeman: any ideas? my friends and family are all like "this is why linux sucks" but they don't understand that it's not linux's fault - it's the developers' | 03:09 |
| seidos | tim__, is it source code? did someone already recommend ./configure make make install? | 03:09 |
| SubCool | ubuntunoobz, nope-you cant. but you can upgrad the gpu sometimes.. | 03:10 |
| gordan_freeman | tim__: linux doesn't suck, just a higher learning curve depending on what you want to do | 03:10 |
| wizz | what is ubuntu with login keyring? | 03:10 |
| seidos | gordan_freeman, i think you mean that for furi :/ | 03:10 |
| gordan_freeman | seidos: now i'm confused ;) | 03:11 |
| seidos | furi, the great thing about linux, you can beat the developers at their own game right? since they "suck" so bad. | 03:11 |
| seidos | gordan_freeman, if this were half-life ai commandos, you might be dead! :o | 03:12 |
| furi | seidos: it wasn't some sort of PA towards them, i was just saying that it isn't linux's fault that most of the good applications aren't runnable on it | 03:12 |
| furi | seidos: and also i've started using linux less than 2 weeks ago | 03:13 |
| furi | seidos: so i'd forefeit this "game" you speak of | 03:13 |
| seidos | furi, it's a complex issue. you're saying developers of the applications you want to run i'm guessing now. but they have to eat and make money, just as much as everybody else. but this is OT. we can talk about it in #ubuntu-offtopic if you want. | 03:13 |
| w3 | what does "release candidate" mean? | 03:13 |
| Guest16759 | the game, you just lost it | 03:13 |
| gordan_freeman | tim__: you can try what seidos says. I was really hoping for a README file though. `./configure; make; make install; ./install;` | 03:13 |
| xenome | when I upgrade to mav from lucid, how do I update my apt sources.list | 03:14 |
| furi | seidos: i'd rather not start up an argument, but i DID, after all, pay for this device | 03:14 |
| xenome | I would have thought my upgrade first 10.04 would update the list | 03:14 |
| Guest16759 | ha!you upgraded to spastick meerkat | 03:14 |
| tim__ | gordan_freeman: I didnt say it sucks. I know that I'm learning a new system. It would make more sense to just have an install file with any software. | 03:14 |
| DasEi | w3: next distros run through different states (mention roadmap), rc is a mark on it | 03:14 |
| s2k | apt-install update, i think | 03:14 |
| Guest16759 | any1 here using TOR? | 03:14 |
| gordan_freeman | w3: release canadate means that the software is still in development, but is about to be released. it's a pre-release so that people can try it out before the actual release. | 03:15 |
| seidos | s2k, sudo apt-get update | 03:15 |
| DasEi | !release > w3 | 03:15 |
| ubottu | w3, please see my private message | 03:15 |
| tim__ | I'll try googling it tomorrow. | 03:15 |
| gordan_freeman | tim__: never mind me. i got confused and wrote to the wrong person. my bad. | 03:15 |
| w3 | gordan_freeman, so does that mean in between beta and stable? | 03:15 |
| Guest16759 | yes it does w3 | 03:16 |
| Guest16759 | well it's basically beta | 03:16 |
| Guest16759 | it's not necessarily stable when it's released | 03:16 |
| gordan_freeman | w3: yea, the last step before becoming stable | 03:16 |
| Guest16759 | take the 2.6.35 kernel for example | 03:16 |
| rionstrife | hi all | 03:16 |
| Guest16759 | that was considered stable until they discovered a massive security hole | 03:17 |
| rionstrife | do u ever try web htb for ubuntu ? | 03:17 |
| Lxndr | How can I, using only programs I can install on ubuntu (without WINE), view webcams on yahoo's chat program? Or does this remain an impossibility? | 03:17 |
| gordan_freeman | w3: also, there may be several release candidates before finally releasing the final release | 03:17 |
| seidos | there isn't a distinction between "beta and stable". Fedora is like that, i think Debian too. there is the "LTS" versions. 10.04 is the newest LTS. | 03:17 |
| rionstrife | http://www.google.co.id/images?hl=id&q=webhtb&um=1&ie=UTF-8&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&biw=1440&bih=707 | 03:17 |
| rionstrife | thats the image of webhtb | 03:17 |
| seidos | well, i take it back, there are beta releases before the 6 month release | 03:17 |
| qiangfan | clear | 03:18 |
| w3 | what do you call the final version then? "gold"? | 03:18 |
| Guest16759 | nah | 03:18 |
| UnholyTerror | Lxndr, you should be able to 'view' a webcam without dificulty. | 03:18 |
| Guest16759 | just called stable | 03:18 |
| Guest16759 | final=stable | 03:18 |
| w3 | i called it stable but someone started to argue with me about it | 03:18 |
| Guest16759 | well they may have a different interpretation of it then | 03:18 |
| seidos | i've never seen anything official call anything stable *shrug* | 03:18 |
| gordan_freeman | w3: you can call it the latest "stable release" | 03:19 |
| AbhiJit | i guess you all are talking about the 64 bit os issue? | 03:19 |
| w3 | what comes AFTER beta then? | 03:19 |
| Guest16759 | alpha | 03:19 |
| UnholyTerror | charlie | 03:19 |
| DasEi | Lxndr: you can use kopete, though it's a kde app | 03:19 |
| rww | w3: alpha => beta => release candidate => final | 03:19 |
| gordan_freeman | alpha comes before beta | 03:19 |
| gordan_freeman | rww wins! | 03:19 |
| Guest16759 | beta -> alpha -> release candidate -> stable(final) | 03:19 |
| rww | Guest16759: no | 03:20 |
| Guest16759 | no? | 03:20 |
| rww | you got alpha and beta switched around | 03:20 |
| gordan_freeman | Alpha comes before Beta | 03:20 |
| w3 | thanks rww, that's the information i needed | 03:20 |
| Guest16759 | o i see | 03:20 |

| ubottu | LFS is linux from scratch www.linuxfromscratch.org; not to be confused with LTS which is the long term support version of ubuntu (6.06 and 8.04) | 03:21 |
| gordan_freeman | Guest16759: meh. there's too many linux distros. it would be a good exercise, but perhaps that is all it would be. | 03:21 |
| Guest16759 | nah i prefer not to use ubuntu | 03:21 |
| rionstrife | anyone ever tyr webhtb for UBUNTU...? | 03:22 |
| AbhiJit | Guest16759, lfs is nothing to do with ubuntu | 03:22 |
| Aemaeth | Guest16759, but you could have it run on startup a simple web browser that goes to the link | 03:22 |

| UnholyTerror | vince_, did you run winecfg? | 03:29 |
| DasEi | Lxndr: you can set the outgoing server in thunderb | 03:29 |
| levi | SubCool: be aware thaht you loose are your settings, themes, Widgetss confs and so on . But should reset as you were run KDE first time. | 03:29 |
| Aidenscool | check all the drivers and clikc apply | 03:30 |
| UnholyTerror | try oss | 03:30 |

| Aidenscool | change the permissions as root? | 03:31 |
| vince_ | dr4c4n: No I did not, what is that? | 03:32 |
| Aidenscool | did you do sudo chmod? | 03:32 |
| dr4c4n | vince_ there's a command line troubleshooter for ubuntu sound | 03:32 |
| cached | Aidenscool: yes, and also tried sudo -s then chmod from root terminal | 03:32 |
| Aidenscool | hmm | 03:32 |
| dr4c4n | also another good tool is pavucontrol | 03:32 |
| dr4c4n | you can apt-get install that | 03:32 |
| Aidenscool | strange | 03:32 |
| Vash63 | Just installed Win7 on a 1.5TB HDD with AHCI, it partitioned it in GPT. When I boot to the Ubuntu installer, gparted shows the entire disc as unallocated, yet it mounts to the desktop automatically with the filesystem intact. | 03:32 |
| Aidenscool | fail ^ | 03:32 |
| peyton_westlake | I'm not sure how to get my computer to recognize an external DVD drive, it's connected via usb. | 03:33 |
| vince_ | dr4c4n: This is strictly a WINE issue, SOund for the rest of the system is fine, will that still apply? | 03:33 |
| Aemaeth | peyton_westlake, and there's something in it? | 03:33 |
| Aidenscool | speaking of wine, is it me or is halo 1 really laggy? | 03:33 |
| dr4c4n | vince_ check wine configuration is selected to the same as the output given by pavucontrol | 03:33 |
| Zorlin | vince_: Have you opened winecfg and set a sound driver yet? | 03:33 |
| peyton_westlake | Aemaeth: a blank | 03:33 |
| ubuntunoobz | subcool: u like it =D? | 03:33 |
| Vash63 | I left 200GB at the end free for Ubuntu, is there a reason why parted reports the entire disk unallocated? Is there a problem installing Ubuntu to a GPT-partitioned disk? | 03:33 |
| Storlek | what packages would I need to get mp3s to play? the wiki isn't very useful there, it just says open them in rhythmbox and somehow the necessary packages will magic their way into existing, which is so very unhelpful :| | 03:34 |
| Zorlin | Storlek: Upon opening an MP3 file it'll prompt you to install the packages to get MP3s working. | 03:34 |
| Aidenscool | hehe it's called New Technology File System, yet it's at leas 20 years old... | 03:34 |
| arrrghhh | Storlek, ubuntu-restricted-extras | 03:34 |
| Storlek | arrrghhh: thanks | 03:34 |

| ubottu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 03:35 |

| ubottu | Aidenscool, please see my private message | 03:35 |
| Jordan_U | Vash63: There is nothing wrong with installing Ubuntu to a GPT disk. The reason gparted likely sees it as being unnalocated is that you have an invalid partition table, possibly due to overlapping partitions. You can confirm this by running "sudo parted -l". | 03:35 |
| Zorlin | Storlek: I would use http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/ubuntu-restricted-extras to get a list of the packages you'll need. | 03:36 |
| Aidenscool | how was i offtopic? | 03:36 |
| Vash63 | Hmm. | 03:36 |
| ranjan | hi all | 03:36 |
| Zorlin | Storlek: Chances are you want gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad and gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly | 03:36 |
| ranjan | is there anyone who has tried Gallium 3d for nvidia | 03:36 |
| Vash63 | "sda contains GPT signatures, etc... However, it does not have a valid fake msdos partition table, as it should." | 03:36 |
| Storlek | Zorlin: and I assume s/jaunty/maverick? | 03:37 |
| Vash63 | Interesting. wtf did 7 do to this partition table? | 03:37 |
| Zorlin | Storlek: naturally | 03:37 |
| Zorlin | Storlek: it was just the first google result for the name of the package ;) | 03:37 |

| bfinch | anyone aware of major audio messup with a 10.10 upgrade ? | 03:37 |
| vince_ | Wine only shows Default | 03:37 |
| vince_ | But it shows 2 "Defaults" | 03:38 |
| Jordan_U | Vash63: Windows can't boot from GPT on BIOS systems to it creates a hybrid GPT/MBR partition table which violates the GPT specification. | 03:38 |
| === cable is now known as Guest34863 | ||
| Zorlin | vince_: Do you know where the wine configuration tool is? | 03:38 |
| Zorlin | vince_: Wine -> Configure wine and such? | 03:38 |
| Vash63 | Right, but parted is indicating that the MBR portion is missing? | 03:38 |
| vince_ | Zorlin: In there right now looking at it | 03:38 |
| Guest34863 | I want to download Debian, how can i check and hardware i have?see what | 03:38 |
| Zorlin | vince_: When you click the audio tab it should whine and bitch at you | 03:38 |

| dr4c4n | vince_: have you seen the sound config wiki? here: http://wiki.jswindle.com/index.php/Sound_Troubleshooting | 03:39 |
| Zorlin | vince_: once you hit okay it should have set up your audio preferences | 03:39 |
| seidos | cabble, ask in #debian | 03:39 |
| dizkneelande1 | hi everyone. is anyone familiar with using unetbootin to install from a sub stick? | 03:39 |
| Jordan_U | Vash63: The MBR portion should only have one partition, spanning the entire drive, to protect against partitioning applications that don't understand GPT. | 03:39 |
| Zorlin | Storlek: According to the maverick page the process is a bit different | 03:39 |
| cabble | there was no one there | 03:39 |
| Aemaeth | !ask | dizkneelande1 | 03:39 |
| ubottu | dizkneelande1: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 03:39 |
| cabble | server was closed | 03:39 |
| Zorlin | Storlek: If you just want MP3 you should install http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3 | 03:40 |
| vince_ | Zorlin: Right when I first tried this it gave me the message but no sound. I set Alsa and hit apply. Then hit "Test Sound". Nothing | 03:40 |
| cabble | anyway, how can i check to see what hardware i have | 03:40 |
| dizkneelande1 | oh ok. I'm a noob. | 03:40 |
| Zorlin | vince_: Close and reopen the panel and see if that helps | 03:40 |
| Storlek | Zorlin: no, actually that list seems useful | 03:40 |
| vince_ | Zorlin: Did and no | 03:41 |
| Storlek | Zorlin: if those packages include what I think they do, it's actually exactly what I'm looking for | 03:41 |
| cabble | how can i check to see what hardware is on my pc | 03:41 |
| seidos | cabble, #debian is fine. go there if you actually want help. | 03:41 |
| Zorlin | Storlek: Alright :) Awesome, that should give you what you need - just install the packages and make sure to grab their dependencies. Keep in mind that the software center can be a bit finicky as far as being slow to install downloaded packages, so be patient. | 03:41 |
| seidos | cabble, or you can try ##linux :> | 03:42 |
| Luija1006 | hello people i wanna know how i can apply some type of censorship to a photo in kubuntu with a program, someone knows? | 03:42 |

| Luija1006 | hello people i wanna know how i can apply some type of censorship to a photo in kubuntu with any native photo editing program, someone knows? | 03:42 |

| seidos | cabble, are you running linux? | 03:42 |
| vince_ | dr4c4n: Is that a Generic Sound Troubleshooting tutorial cause if so I am only having sound issues in WINE | 03:42 |
| cabble | yes | 03:42 |
| Jordan_U | Vash63: As much as I dislike the legacy cruft of msdos partition labels, getting rid of GPT entirely for this disk may be the easiest way to allow Ubuntu to cooexist with the legacy cruft of Microsoft's bootloader :( | 03:42 |
| dr4c4n | vince_: no it's for wine | 03:42 |
| dr4c4n | specifically | 03:42 |
| seidos | cabble, lspci, sudo lshw | 03:42 |
| dr4c4n | Luija1006: don't spam channel | 03:43 |
| dr4c4n | Luija1006: I was about to help you, so here goes | 03:43 |
| bfinch | ok.... figure this one out folks.... the "sound preferences" app says that java is playing audio... BUT there is no acutal sound output.... and yes "aplay" and other sounds from a terminal work fine as does the startup sounds | 03:43 |
| Luija1006 | sorry | 03:43 |
| cabble | thank you | 03:43 |
| dr4c4n | you can use gimp with different layers | 03:43 |
| dizkneelande1 | !ask is anyone familiar with using unetbootin? | 03:43 |
| vince_ | Zorlin: no worries. I'm going to try loading winamp and see if I cna play some MP3's but I don't think it will given the Test Audio does nothing | 03:43 |
| peyton_westlake | My bad, I think I might have it. :-) | 03:43 |
| dr4c4n | to achieve a censoring effect I believe | 03:43 |
| Luija1006 | gimp? | 03:44 |
| dr4c4n | Luija1006: the tool you want to use is pixelate censor | 03:44 |
| bfinch | got ya !! | 03:44 |
| Aemaeth | dr4c4n, what about gimp-resynthesize ? | 03:44 |
| Luija1006 | is that a program? | 03:44 |
| dr4c4n | Luija1006: yes Gnu Image manipulation progrm | 03:44 |
| dr4c4n | yes | 03:44 |
| Zorlin | vince_: Yeah, but worth a test :) The panel isn't perfect and sometimes it won't work even if sound is working. The next thing I'd try is just selecting OSS and unchecking ALSA | 03:44 |
| Jordan_U | dizkneelande1: Just ask whatever your actual question about unetbootin is, without the "!ask". | 03:45 |
| dr4c4n | Aemaeth: different tool accomplishing the same thing I believe | 03:45 |
| dr4c4n | Aemaeth: possibly also mosaic or gaussian blur | 03:45 |
| Aemaeth | dr4c4n, depends if you're taking out an entire object or just blurring | 03:45 |
| Jordan_U | dizkneelande1: The "!ask" was a signal to the channel bot, ubottu, telling it to give you a message about asking your actual question. | 03:45 |
| gMinuses | my jack sense (plugging in a headset in the jack mutes the speakers) doesn't work in ubuntu (both have sound come out), but it works in windows. is there any way I can fix it? | 03:45 |

| maco | gMinuses: ubuntu-bug -s audio | 03:46 |
| Aemaeth | dizkneelande1, yes, i'm glad that's all you wanted to know. I am familiar with unetbootin. Have a nice day :D | 03:46 |
| dr4c4n | Luija1006: are you taking out an entire object or just blurring something? | 03:46 |
| Luija1006 | blurring | 03:46 |
| dr4c4n | Aemaeth: thanks, which would you suggest? | 03:46 |
| dr4c4n | I would have just tested all three | 03:46 |
| dr4c4n | and saw the effects it would have created | 03:46 |
| dr4c4n | (and know for next time) :) | 03:46 |

| vinod | why it is not working | 03:53 |
| Vash63 | Eh, it was a fresh install of Windows. I just remade the table with parted and I'm gonna reinstall 7 to see if after that's done it's fixed. | 03:53 |
| === || is now known as Pinna | ||
| deac0n | seidos, I wish i new perl or anything | 03:54 |
| Vash63 | I think the drive's partition table was messed up to begin with and the 7 install didn't fix it fully. Hopefully gparted did a better job. | 03:54 |
| dr4c4n | Luija1006: the best reference is the gimp pages: http://docs.gimp.org/en/filters-blur.html | 03:54 |
| vinod | but i tired all things but is not seems to works | 03:54 |
| gMinuses | maco: here is it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/643745 | 03:54 |
| Vash63 | It came out of a 4 drive raid5 so it had bits and pieces of a gpt table to start with. | 03:54 |

| seidos | deac0n, i don't know. gnome-power-manager would usually handle power configuration stuff, like turning off the screen. so you want to turn off the screen after x minutes, then key press to turn it back on? sounds like a screensaver O_o | 03:59 |

| cfedde | tortoise: you can test your local ssh server by attemting to 'ssh localhost' | 04:46 |
| cfedde | and if that works then get your local systetems interface IP and try 'ssh ip.ad.dr.ess' | 04:47 |

| Matir | box: ethernet bridging? | 05:17 |
| coraxx | JPeterson: (if you've previously installed the Exchange-MAPI plugin for the 2.28-version ...do remember to remove it first, before upgrading the evolution packages) | 05:17 |
| JPeterson | coraxx: so that's the plugin i need for the imapx/imap+ functionality? | 05:18 |
| box | Matir, You think that would work? because the eth3 interface does not need an IP address. The next hop does. | 05:18 |
| JPeterson | that improves the syncing to work more like activesync/exchange? | 05:18 |

| Jordan_U | rammyIRC: Applications > Ubuntu Software Center | 05:19 |
| coraxx | JPeterson: no ... the IMAP+ feature is built-in ... I was referring to the old 2.28-version that have the option of installing a MAPI plugin ... if you upgrade, while its still installed, you installation will fail. | 05:19 |

| coraxx | JPeterson: another tip btw is this: if you sync with google, then you do _NOT_ need to configure the email account, with regards to where the "sent item" should be placed ...when you email something in Evolution through the google mail system...google automatically saves the outgoing email in your online "Sent"-folder...Google is clever ;-) | 05:22 |

| coraxx | bryhoyt: I think it might be a program (like "fast-user-switch-applet" ) ...not nessecarily a script | 05:27 |
| bryhoyt | coraxx: oh, ok. I thought there was some way to hook into it :-( | 05:27 |
| rammyIRC | any idea on empathy im client | 05:27 |
| coraxx | bryhoyt: there a multiple shutdown buttons to choose from ....if you find the source-code for one, you can change/modify it and recompile ... or maybe make your own shutdown-button ...shouldn't be hard to make one similar in Python. | 05:29 |
| bryhoyt | coraxx: hmmm, yeah, I'm just wondering where to find the program/script in the first place | 05:29 |

| Jordan_U | HomeBoy: If you run "yes > /dev/null & yes > /dev/null" Does the frequency go up to 3.0 GHZ? | 05:32 |
| blakkheim | HomeBoy: no i mean that's what is happening. it's normal, it does that to save power when the cpu isn't in use. check wikipedia for more info | 05:32 |
| bryhoyt | coraxx: thanks for your help, I think I may have found it in /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh | 05:32 |
| coraxx | bryhoyt: you want something to occur when you log out ? .... check out /usr/share/gnome/shutdown ... looks like it was meant for adding scripts when Gnome ends. | 05:32 |
| bryhoyt | coraxx: ah, that's interesting, too | 05:33 |

| airtonix | issues with DRBL and Zentyal on Ubuntu 10.04 relating to NFS server errors... anyone shed some light on this please? | 05:33 |
| bryhoyt | coraxx: actually, I'm looking for a way to force it to do a hard shutdown before anything else has a chance to run. It's a boot-into-ram system, and I just want the power button to kill the power immediately. | 05:33 |
| mark2010 | must go now. i'll ask again next time. bye all. | 05:34 |
| bryhoyt | hmmm /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh seemed to work once but not anymore :-( | 05:34 |
| coraxx | bryhoyt: the script you've found ... do you know "when" its activated ? (when the event occurs, if it occurs) | 05:34 |
| ted | pull the power cord out of the wall....... that will shut it down!!! | 05:34 |
| Jordan_U | rammyIRC: You're welcome. | 05:34 |
| ted | just kidding of course | 05:35 |
| HomeBoy | Jordan_U, No does nothing... (was i suooosed to run that command in a terminal?) | 05:35 |
| bryhoyt | coraxx: I think it's supposed to be called directly from the kernel. The first thing that happens when the power button is pressed. But it doesn't seem to be doing the trick anymore | 05:35 |
| Jordan_U | HomeBoy: Yes. | 05:36 |
| SubCool | Ok, how about, which log do i view to see where it crases on boot? | 05:36 |
| SubCool | It keeps crashing with the same error.... | 05:36 |
| HomeBoy | Jordan_U, Then, no it still fluctuates between 2.4 and 1.6 GHZ | 05:36 |
| bryhoyt | ted: yeah, that would work too ;-) but I'm trying to give it an appearance of being less hacky | 05:36 |
| === Kasjopaja23 is now known as Kasjopaja | ||

| HomeBoy | Jordan_U, Yes but will do so again to be sure.. (Could it have anything to do with AWN? as this only happened after installing AWN.) | 05:39 |
| Jordan_U | HomeBoy: Not likely. | 05:39 |
| bryhoyt | coraxx: yeah, that's about how I'm feeling. But it can obviously be done, in theory. Since Ubuntu can call custom scripts/apps, I should be able to somehow too! | 05:39 |
| MagusOTB | what command do I use to list what groups a user is in? | 05:40 |
| MagusOTB | nevermind | 05:40 |
| bryhoyt | something keeps telling me that somebody somewhere made this more complicated than it should be... | 05:40 |
| MagusOTB | it's "groups" | 05:40 |
| coraxx | bryhoyt: ah ok. You might have a chance, if you figure out the "event-flow" ...there has to be some scripts that can be modified/configured to run other scripts, rather than compiled programs. In there you can suppli your desired process. | 05:40 |
| HomeBoy | Jordan_U, In AWN I use the cpu frequency scaling widgets, they have a setting for 1.6 and 2.4 GHZ, or i can set for "Ondemand" or "power" etc | 05:40 |
| bryhoyt | coraxx: my thoughts exactly | 05:40 |
| coraxx | bryhoyt: first you will have to decide in which part of the process you wish to add something ...can you tell me ? | 05:41 |
| HomeBoy | Jordan_U, Or are they just reporting what is there? | 05:41 |
| Jordan_U | HomeBoy: Try disabling that widget. | 05:41 |
| HomeBoy | Jordan_U, have done that but makes no difference. | 05:42 |
| Jordan_U | HomeBoy: Are you sure that you used to get the full 3 GHZ? What application were you checking the frequency with before? | 05:42 |
| coraxx | bryhoyt: the obvious scripts are in the /etc/rc?.d directories | 05:42 |
| enav | what is the equivalent key of F8 from windwos to show the OS menu | 05:42 |
| HomeBoy | Jordan_U, Ubuntu System Monitor stiil shows 3.0GHZ | 05:42 |

| HomeBoy | Jordan_U, can you suggest a way to check what it really is, like a terminal command? | 05:43 |
| coraxx | Jordan_U: or use "hardinfo" | 05:43 |
| bryhoyt | coraxx: that's a thought.. except I want to get in before them, because one of the issues here is that I want to shutdown before the ugly messages get printed to the console (which I can't seem to eliminate, not matter how fancy I get with Plymouth etc). | 05:44 |

| bryhoyt | coraxx: also, /etc/rc?.d is deprecated in Ubuntu 10.04, although they're still run. Officially we should now use Upstart config in /etc/init -- but I don't really know how to work Upstart yet. | 05:45 |
| Jordan_U | bryhoyt: You said that this system would run entirely in RAM. If you can be sure that there will never be any filesystems mounted you can halt directly, without going through the normal shutdown process. | 05:45 |
| bryhoyt | Jordan_U: yes, that's exactly what I want to do. But how do I bind that action to the power button??? | 05:46 |
| JPeterson | coraxx: the imapx is kind of nice, although, i would still prefer to see the mails instantly in the panel bar | 05:46 |
| JPeterson | if someone added sync for evoultion i would use it | 05:47 |
| JPeterson | although it's nice to see that they improve the imap support too | 05:47 |
| JPeterson | but the passive timer for new mail is really old | 05:47 |
| Jordan_U | bryhoyt: I see two possible goals, 1: Avoid the normal user prompt 2: Avoid the usual shutdown uglyness. Do you care about both or just the latter? | 05:48 |
| bryhoyt | Jordan_U: 2 is the most important. 1 I can solve via the Ubuntu power preferences, so it's not really a problem | 05:49 |
| coraxx | JPeterson: note... with IMAP+ the folder will be updated when you click on them ...not just with the scheduled check. | 05:49 |
| JPeterson | coraxx: ya, but with new mail when i'm working outside evolution | 05:50 |
| bryhoyt | Jordan_U: also, I want to make certain the box is actually shutoff. I don't want to come back after a 3 week holiday and find it's been hanging on something stupid like alsa-mixer-save (which can happen...) | 05:50 |

| coraxx | JPeterson: if you mean "pushing" the emails, then it required a contant connection to a system that supports it ... if you adjust you check-interval, the effect is almost the same (with IMAP+ as its works fast with getting the headers) | 05:53 |
| HomeBoy | blakkheim, Output says both cpu cores running at 1600mhz? | 05:53 |

| Jordan_U | bryhoyt: Ahh, you need update-rc.d. | 06:12 |
| depesz | hi. yesterday I upgraded system from jaunty to maverick. all works well, with 1 big issue - 2 md devices are not mounted | 06:12 |
| bonehead | sudo pppoeconf | 06:13 |
| depesz | as far as I can tell, it's because when I boot from maverick kernel, i see only sda-sde | 06:13 |
| depesz | while, when booting from jaunty, i see also sdf and sdg | 06:13 |
| depesz | it looks like a missing module for extra sata controller. | 06:13 |
| bryhoyt | Jordan_U: ok, what does that do? | 06:13 |
| depesz | any idea how to verify/fix it? | 06:13 |

| lahwran | earthshade: now, stop trying to pin it on us for ubuntu not being able to support something that lazy vendors won't let us support. | 07:04 |
| MagusOTB | earthshade: I have a problem with people blaming linux for its lack of driver support. The reason your printer works in windows is because canon wrote a driver for it and did not write one for windows. Why does microsoft get the credit for canon's work and linux get the flak for its lack thereof? | 07:05 |
| MagusOTB | *didn't write one for linux. | 07:05 |
| lahwran | earthshade: and then go deal with ubuntu not supporting your hardware perfectly or use windows! now please, no more! | 07:05 |
| KB1JWQ | HomeBoy: Which parts? | 07:05 |
| megh | earthshade : try this link https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/22555 | 07:05 |
| lahwran | MagusOTB and everyone else: please stop feeding earthshade argument ammo. | 07:05 |
| jtduncan | ah, lahwran, thanks, but another question: why would a package be removed from -backports? | 07:06 |
| SubCool | MagusOTB: because usually there is a driver, that someone made- but it hasnt spread far enough they, or it needs 3 added patches fore EACH system to work.. | 07:06 |
| === sprung is now known as sprungisgod | ||
| === martinhack is now known as martinhacks | ||
| SubCool | or the guide/walk through sucks | 07:06 |
| HomeBoy | KB1JWQ, Just want to know chipset, motherboard manufacturer, socket etc | 07:06 |
| SubCool | lol.. | 07:06 |
| earthshade | megh: Thank you!!!!! | 07:07 |
| SubCool | earthshade: im with you, just keep it as a backburner- but dont give up. ITs more powerful if u can get past the bs | 07:07 |
| earthshade | megh: I hope it works | 07:07 |
| lahwran | jtduncan: no idea. why does it matter? why does karmic still matter at all? iirc karmic's support lifetime is up. use one of the two currently supported LTSes or use 10.10. | 07:07 |
| lahwran | jtduncan: or don't expect support in any way. | 07:07 |
| megh | earthshade: well i never had any problem using my canon MFD in linux | 07:08 |
| === martinhacks is now known as JoNNNSap | ||
| earthshade | lahwran: And "not supporting it perfectly" is definitely an underexaggeration... It doesnt work AT ALL | 07:08 |
| === JoNNNSap is now known as martinhacks | ||
| earthshade | megh: Good to know? | 07:08 |
| SubCool | i have learned to see if my hardware works with linux first.. | 07:09 |
| SubCool | usually linux only makes drivers for the good hardware anyways | 07:09 |
| earthshade | I installed it this week | 07:09 |
| SubCool | HAHAHAHA | 07:09 |
| SubCool | PM me- we can learn togheter | 07:09 |
| earthshade | Funny why? | 07:09 |
| lahwran | earthshade: why are you using ubuntu? honestly, it soudns like you're better off in XP | 07:09 |
| bista-ankit | hello people | 07:10 |
| lahwran | earthshade: see, contrary to what canonical says, ubuntu is not the os to end all OSes; not only are there other linuxes, but windows isn't inherently bad, just different | 07:10 |
| earthshade | lahwran: I wanted to see what it was like... And I was sick of my antivirus using what little ram I already have (1gb) | 07:10 |
| HomeBoy | Thanks to all but I found it through Google | 07:10 |
| obs3rv3r | lahwran: I thank you for suggesting me bitlbee :) It really rocks. | 07:11 |
| * greppy <3 bitlbee | 07:11 | |
| lahwran | earthshade: ahhh. if you'll take this to ##windows, that can be helped instead. | 07:11 |
| jtduncan | lahwran: thanks! unfortunately, karmic is supposedly still supported, so i was trying to find out in case someone asks me... | 07:11 |
| lahwran | obs3rv3r: when did I recommend bitlbee? | 07:11 |
| testi_ | I have a dialog popping up each start. Something about email notification. I remember i once installed a package for email notification, but i don't remember which. How can I figure out which process creates that window? Or how can I track that package down an remove it? | 07:11 |
| earthshade | lahwran: What can be helped? | 07:11 |
| lahwran | jtduncan: orly? news to me, though that doesn't make it false | 07:11 |
| lahwran | earthshade: move over there please | 07:12 |
| obs3rv3r | lahwran: I guess it was you a few days ago when we were having a small chat on pidgin bittlbee and empathy.. I am sorry if it wasn't you. | 07:12 |
| lahwran | obs3rv3r: it probably was, I promote it like crazy, I just don't remember | 07:12 |
| rww | ##windows, land of the recommendations for "Common Sense 2010" | 07:12 |
| obs3rv3r | lahwran: Haha ;) Nice one . | 07:12 |

| noob-tux | i need a link to configure my mail from yahoo to the mail here on my ubuntu...i mean the evolution mail... | 07:14 |
| vinod | how to use the special effect on the ubuntu10.10 desktop | 07:14 |
| obs3rv3r | noob-tux: I guess that would be yahoo mail plus before you can use any email client for the purpose. | 07:15 |
| noob-tux | obs3rv3r, : u mean an account from yahoomail? not the free account? :( | 07:15 |
| obs3rv3r | noob-tux: Yes I am afraid so. | 07:17 |
| bryhoyt | I'm trying to blacklist i915 so that my framebuffer uses a generic driver (efifb). I put "blacklist i915" into /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf, but the module is still loaded. How do I blacklist it properly? | 07:17 |
| noob-tux | obs3rv3r, : ok thanx :) | 07:17 |
| lucent | bryhoyt: initramfs | 07:17 |
| enki | i'm running out-of-the-box ubuntu maverick on amazon ec2 with an EBS root volume, and an additional EBS volume for logs, both on ext4. i've had repeat half-crashes, with the volume becoming partially unresponsive (task blocked for more than ... seconds) and high load in WAIT | 07:17 |
| lucent | try 'update-initramfs -u -k all' | 07:17 |
| enki | http://pastebin.com/eZh7mSZH | 07:17 |
| bryhoyt | lucent: ok, trying it now | 07:17 |
| etchalu | noob-tux: The free Yahoo! Mail is doesn't support POP or IMAP. | 07:18 |
| ryanprior | When I try to install Skype via deb package on Ubuntu 10.10, it says that some libraries such as libaudio2 and libqt4 come from "not authenticated sources". How do I authenticate them so it will let me install the software? | 07:18 |
| bastidrazor | bryhoyt: add it to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-framebuffer.conf ? | 07:19 |
| lucent | bryhoyt: there's dozens of modules that get loaded with the kernel from initramfs, and stay resident | 07:20 |
| bryhoyt | bastidrazor: tried that, too. But lucent's solution is the correct one, and works | 07:20 |
| lahwran | I created a gpg key on another ubuntu installation, had it signed a bunch of times, and then reinstalled ubuntu. I was careful to keep the homedir, however; how would I rescue the keys from the old homedir? | 07:20 |
| bryhoyt | lucent: wow, thanks. That's a big step forward on this project... | 07:21 |
| lucent | bryhoyt: you need to update this initramfs any time you make a change to the module loading configuration, that may seem a little strange but it's important and there's no automagical mechanism to know when to update the initramfs safetly | 07:21 |
| greppy | noob-tux: you might want to take a look at fetchyahoo | 07:21 |
| rww | lahwran: cp -R /path/to/backup/.gnupg/ ~/.gnupg | 07:21 |
| bryhoyt | lucent: yeah, I didn't realise that | 07:22 |
| lucent | bryhoyt: if it were to go automatically, then you may suddenly have an unworkable initramfs, and no working kernel to boot ;) | 07:22 |
| ryanprior | Is there a way for me to just use the old gDebi installer? Is there any way for me to get this .deb onto my system, to force the Ubuntu Software Center to install it? I trust the libraries, I just want the package to install. | 07:22 |
| noob-tux | greppy, : thanx bro :) i'll check it out | 07:23 |
| Axlin | ryanprior: sudo apt-get install gedbi, then set debs to open with that | 07:23 |
| bryhoyt | lucent: now, any ideas why my X is still attempting an unecessary modeswitch (without actually switching modes) after plymouth finishes up? Now that I've solved my FB issues and have a resolution that matches X's resolution (both of which are fixed at 800x600), I would've thought my bootup process would be smooth... | 07:23 |
| Axlin | gdebi* | 07:23 |
| bryhoyt | and shutdown process -- still getting a flash of text before plymouth kicks in | 07:23 |
| ryanprior | Axlin: the gdebi packages aren't authenticated either. It seems I'm missing all the default authentication files. Any idea where I'd get them? | 07:24 |
| Axlin | not sure ryanprior, sorry. i was able to just install gdebi that way and run with it | 07:26 |
| ryanprior | Axlin: did you have the same problem with authentication when you installed? | 07:27 |
| Axlin | no, not personally. it just installed like anything else | 07:28 |
| bryhoyt | lucent: hmm, it definitely did something, because my framebuffer stays in 800x600 now. But i915 module is still loaded when I do lsmod | grep i915 | 07:29 |
| dipungal_kamo | how do i scan for active networks? | 07:29 |
| etchalu | How can I globally set the caps lock key to swap with the control key? I believe I have to edit my xorg.conf file, but it doesn't have an entry for my keyboard. | 07:29 |
| dkannan | xchat-gnome crashes for me. can anyone suggest an alternative graphical IRC client - supported by canonical? | 07:30 |
| Syria | Hi, I am trying to print using spreed sheet but I get a m message that says " error while printingg! | 07:30 |
| ljsoftnet | dkannan xchat has a separate install | 07:30 |
| ryanprior | dkannan: xchat-gnome is the only one supported by Canonical; however, I like chatzilla better. | 07:30 |
| dkannan | ljsofnet: did not try xchat. installed xchat-gnome | 07:31 |
| etchalu | dkannan: I believe Pidgin is a supported IRC client. | 07:32 |
| ljsoftnet | dkannan dont worry xchat is safe, im currently using it | 07:32 |
| dkannan | ryanprior: thx. i tried chatzilla. but my firefox has high enough memory usage. do not want to run another process on it | 07:32 |
| xuekan | hi why my ubuntu 10.04 always have a problm when startup,it says that errors were found when checking for /,press F to fix it ....something like it.how do i fix this problem? | 07:32 |
| dkannan | ljsofnet: is it graphical or console based. also how is it diff from xchat-gnome? | 07:33 |
| ryanprior | dkannan: you can run chatzilla as its own process using xulrunner -- try googling "chatzilla xulrunner" or similar. | 07:33 |
| ryanprior | dkannan: I decided to do so after I got tired of Firefox bugs crashing my IRC sessions. | 07:34 |
| dkannan | ryanprior: will try it out. but trying out xchat now and seeing how it goes. xulrunner is seems interesting - will try it out. | 07:35 |
| nicoInattendu | Hi, | 07:36 |
| ljsoftnet | dkannan very small difference, totally the same | 07:36 |
| noob-tux | now i got this again.....a saveas popup from firefox a .php file everytime i click on a page in fb or trying to refresh the page....i doubt it that it's from the web server... any idea? | 07:36 |
| xuekan | anyone can help me?thanks. | 07:36 |
| ljsoftnet | dkannan its graphical | 07:36 |
| nicoInattendu | I m making a live USB key based on Lucid Lynx. At the very begining of boot a 'splash' screen appears. If no key are toggled its boots directly to install. How to change it to live cd instead ? | 07:38 |

| marcpv | anyone know how to manage start-up applications? | 07:43 |
| robinatw | Hi,everybody ! | 07:45 |
| robinatw | i have a question to ask, what's the "nutshell" in a book generally ? | 07:45 |
| etchalu | marcpv: In what specifically? GNOME, KDE, init? | 07:45 |
| Aemaeth | you mean the 'twist' | 07:45 |
| dkannan | hello. thx xchat is cool. better than xchat-gnome. stable so far | 07:46 |
| marcpv | etchalu: gnome 10.04 | 07:46 |
| euphoria | Umm... "in a nutshell" is the summary, if that's what ya mean | 07:46 |
| manhunter | is anyone here ? | 07:46 |
| yanix | hi | 07:46 |
| manhunter | can i ask question? | 07:46 |
| lahwran | manhunter: nobody. those ~2000 nicks are a lie | 07:46 |
| greppy | !ask | 07:46 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 07:46 |
| lahwran | !ask | manhunter | 07:46 |
| ubottu | manhunter: please see above | 07:46 |
| Fisherman | how to check plagiarism between two files. c | 07:46 |
| Fisherman | ?? | 07:46 |
| MagusOTB | Fisherman: plagiarism? | 07:47 |
| lahwran | Fisherman: look at them with your eyes and check if they're similar | 07:47 |
| lahwran | Fisherman: that, or the diff command, but that only works if they're text | 07:47 |
| Fisherman | lahwran I want to check the degree of similarity of two files .c | 07:47 |
| niekie | sudo apt-get install similarity-tester? | 07:47 |
| lahwran | !info diff | 07:48 |

| lwizardl | hi | 07:48 |
| lahwran | niekie: oh wow, I thought you were kidding | 07:48 |
| manhunter | hello | 07:48 |
| niekie | lahwran: of course not :) | 07:48 |
| manhunter | is pidgin in ubuntu? | 07:48 |
| lahwran | manhunter: yes | 07:48 |
| niekie | manhunter: not by default anymore, but yes, you can install it. | 07:48 |
| niekie | And it will work fine. | 07:49 |
| etchalu | marcpv: In the System menu under Preferences should be an item about start-up programs. | 07:49 |
| manhunter | niekie: why is it not by default? | 07:49 |
| lahwran | manhunter: to install pidgin, the easiest way is to go to applications->accessories->terminal and type "sudo apt-get install pidgin" and then follow the instructions | 07:49 |
| lwizardl | I was wondering if someone knew of a way to setup ubuntu so when ever you insert a known disc type (Music CD, or DVD Video) it would auto rip it to your choosen file type (Music as FLAC, DVD Video as XVID) | 07:49 |
| niekie | manhunter: Empathy was chosen as the current default instant messaging client. Don't ask me why :) | 07:49 |
| manhunter | why ??? | 07:50 |
| manhunter | what's the problem with pidgin | 07:50 |
| greppy | manhunter: just because x was chosen over y, doesn't mean there is a problem with y. | 07:50 |
| euphoria | Anyone here use ATI graphics, and happen to have advice on getting drivers properly installed? Keep running into a program crash that while I cant guarantee it, seems graphics related... | 07:50 |
| Axlin | i have a feeling it has to do with empathy being a "simpler" client. plus empathy has audio/video support | 07:50 |
| marcpv | etchalu: yes, it ask me for name and command, what may I type there? | 07:50 |
| manhunter | pidgin looks better than empathy | 07:51 |
| manhunter | pidgin was for many years | 07:51 |
| lahwran | lwizardl: don't know how, it has to be possible and would be awesome | 07:51 |
| niekie | Axlin: Pidgin has that nowadays too, only for XMPP though, AFAIK. :) | 07:51 |
| Axlin | i see, good to know niekie | 07:51 |
| lahwran | manhunter: the ubuntu core team made the change, and while some of them are probably in channel, I doubt any of those guys are active right now. | 07:52 |
| lwizardl | lahwran, well if windows can do it, I am damn sure Linux can also. I just am trying to figure out how to do it | 07:52 |
| jpds | manhunter: Empathy supposedly has a better framework and plugin architeture. | 07:52 |
| manhunter | Axlin: pidgin may have audio video support | 07:52 |
| lahwran | lwizardl: watch the language. and there are autorun hooks - can't you use those to write scripts? | 07:52 |
| jpds | manhunter: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EmpathyVsPidginUsability | 07:52 |
| etchalu | marcpv: The "Name" is for a descriptive name, and "Command" is for the path (plus any arguments) to the program you want to run. | 07:53 |
| manhunter | does empathy have video chat support for yahoo? | 07:54 |
| marcpv | etchalu: so how can I guess the path? | 07:54 |
| jpds | manhunter: Potentially; I haven't tried it myself. | 07:54 |
| manhunter | i think , no support for yahoo | 07:54 |
| Fisherman | niekie similarity-tester installed as compare with test1.c test2.c | 07:54 |
| === root_ is now known as L1es | ||
| niekie | Fisherman: if you want to test for similarities in .c files, as far as I know the similarity-tester package provides sim_c | 07:57 |
| etchalu | marcpv: Don't guess, know. :) If, for example, you want to start Gedit when you log in, you can find Gedit by opening a terminal and typing "which gedit" (minus the quotes). | 07:57 |
| manhunter | good link though,https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EmpathyVsPidginUsability | 07:57 |
| niekie | Fisherman: I don't know much about the similarity-tester toolkit though, I'm afraid. I just know of it's existance :) | 07:57 |

| WXZ | what's a file manager | 07:58 |
| WXZ | that allows you to view user extended attributes? | 07:58 |
| marcpv | etchalu: ok, thanks very much! I need to add tomboy and now I think it is done, let me restart to check | 07:59 |
| lahwran | WXZ: what are "user extended attributes"? do you mean the ext2/3 extended switches? or maybe just the permissions? or maybe the ntfs permissions? | 07:59 |
| WXZ | it's customizable meta data fields lahwran | 08:00 |
| WXZ | you know how you have "name, create date, last date modified" it's similar to those | 08:00 |
| lahwran | WXZ: on what filesystem | 08:00 |
| WXZ | ext4 | 08:01 |
| WXZ | they work on ext2 and 3 and some others I believe | 08:01 |
| WXZ | as well | 08:01 |
| etchalu | marcpv: You're welcome. | 08:01 |
| lahwran | WXZ: it has to be new to ext4 'cause I've never heard of it before ... | 08:01 |
| WXZ | nope | 08:01 |
| WXZ | it's very useful, but very underground for some reason :s | 08:02 |
| WXZ | and not well supported | 08:02 |

| deadly_Tr | hi guys can some 1 help me with updates | 08:19 |
| dancek | jscinoz, you might be able to adapt this information: http://www.insidesocal.com/click/2010/02/intel-82830-cgc-830m-graphics.html | 08:19 |
| deadly_Tr | i updated | 08:19 |
| deadly_Tr | my ubu | 08:19 |
| deadly_Tr | ntu | 08:19 |
| deadly_Tr | then my wireless and keyboard shortcuts has gone | 08:19 |
| he2 | deadly_Tr: what's your problem? | 08:19 |
| jscinoz | dancek: thanks | 08:19 |
| deadly_Tr | my wireless and keyboard shortcuts doesnt work | 08:20 |
| jscinoz | dancek: disabling modesetting is really not a solution | 08:20 |
| deadly_Tr | probably with ethernet | 08:20 |
| WXZ | there's no documentation about xattrs with thunar :( | 08:20 |
| jscinoz | Then again, perhaps i'm asking in the wrong place. ubuntu user's arent known for being the most well-advised. | 08:20 |
| dancek | jscinoz, well, does it work with vesa | 08:20 |
| jscinoz | dancek: one moment. | 08:21 |
| Muromets | is it possible to instal ubuntu on fat or ntfs? | 08:21 |
| rypervenche | Is it possible to record OpenGL using ffmpeg? I have tried glc and yukon seems to be about the same but they are no longer supported. I know ffmpeg can get x11, can it get OpenGL too? | 08:22 |
| WXZ | Muromets: no | 08:22 |
| Muromets | Thx to all | 08:22 |
| spaazz | could anyone help me with tvtime television viewer? it just appears briefly when i click it in the menu then disappears a quarter of a second later. | 08:22 |
| etchalu | You can with Wubi. It will install Ubuntu into a file on a Windows system. | 08:22 |
| rypervenche | What is a good equivalent to Fraps on Linux? | 08:24 |
| Aemaeth | rypervenche, recordmydesktop | 08:24 |
| WXZ | thunar doesn't work :( | 08:25 |
| jscinoz | dancek: does not appear to work with vesa, when the kernel is started with nomodeset | 08:25 |
| etchalu | Muromets: However, if you want to install Ubuntu onto a FAT/NTFS partition and use that partition as your root partition, you can't. You have to use an Ext2/3/4 partition. | 08:25 |
| dancek | jscinoz, humm, i expected it would work | 08:26 |
| spaazz | someone? | 08:28 |
| jscinoz | dancek: sec | 08:28 |
| rypervenche | Aemaeth: I need recording directly from OpenGL, not like recordmydesktop. I have gotten glc but it doesn't work 100% and is no longer supported. Same with yukon. | 08:28 |
| dancek | jscinoz, anyhow it seems to me the driver has problems when built as a module, eg. http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Intel_GMA#Kernel_Modesetting_Causes_Blackscreen | 08:29 |

| spaazz | lucent, say what? | 08:36 |
| spaazz | why? | 08:36 |
| john38 | Is there any program that can monitor PSU readings without using Multimeter????? | 08:36 |
| lucent | they're from 10 years ago, so | 08:36 |
| spaazz | i thought oss stood for open source software | 08:37 |
| lucent | Open Sound System, by 4front | 08:37 |
| lucent | OSS, ALSA, PulseAudio, PortAudio, JACK, Gstreamer | 08:38 |
| spaazz | lucent, what can i use to watch tv in ubuntu on my tv tuner (without installing the entire mythtv) | 08:38 |
| lucent | spaazz: try tvtime | 08:38 |
| lucent | I heard tvtime is the best | 08:38 |
| spaazz | lucent, uh thats what i was using | 08:38 |
| yagoo | spaazz, oss is obsolete sound engine. use alsa. you'll see alsa-oss package installed if there's stubborn apps needing to think there's an oss engine installed | 08:38 |
| spaazz | :) | 08:38 |
| lucent | tell tvtime to use alsa | 08:38 |
| john38 | Is there any program that can monitor PSU readings without using Multimeter????? | 08:39 |
| spaazz | lucent, but i cant start it | 08:39 |
| lucent | spaazz: call a waaaahmbulance | 08:39 |

| === nand_ is now known as nand | ||

| yagoo | spaazz, i dont even know what tvtime is | 08:42 |
| Daniel2 | was wondering if anyone could help, why is Postfix not installing on my server? Dpkg keeps returning an error: http://pastebin.com/umgcf0iM | 08:43 |
| etchalu | Where can I get the information I need to make an entry in my xorg.conf file for my keyboard? Is there a file in /proc that would provide that information. | 08:43 |
| yagoo | spaazz, is alsa used when u play videos/audios with any other program? (mplayer <soundfile> can say) | 08:44 |
| dancek | john38, depends on your hardware whether that's possible but i think GKrellM would support it | 08:45 |

| acacios | i'll try it | 09:07 |
| guest00xx | how can i install e17? | 09:07 |
| Inferus | Daniel2 what is your question | 09:07 |
| Daniel2 | inferus: why is Postfix not installing on my server? Dpkg keeps returning an error: http://pastebin.com/umgcf0iM | 09:08 |

| llutz_ | or AUTHPRIV | 09:11 |

| steveccc | i have just seen a linux desktop screenshot with adobe cs icons on it - will this be programs running in unity mode in VM or can it run on 10.04 | 09:11 |
| llutz_ | anygivenname: 581 is the pid of the running rsyslogd | 09:12 |
| anygivenname | that means it is running? | 09:12 |
| llutz_ | anygivenname: so its running. that command would have given nothing back, if it was not running | 09:12 |

| guest00xx | how can i install e17? | 09:13 |
| Daniel2 | Inferus, I know...I can't seem to get any help with it :S | 09:13 |

| Daniel2 | Inferus, still died with the force | 09:15 |
| Daniel2 | same error | 09:15 |

| rypervenche | Would anyone be willing to help me write a small shell script to start recording audio with arecord when I use a specific hotkey then stop when I use it again? | 09:15 |
| Inferus | Daniel2 try next sudo dpkg --configure --pending | 09:16 |
| acacios | There is no speed when i download something,what should i do then?only wait? | 09:16 |
| Inferus | if that doesnt work | 09:16 |
| mawst | Can a shell script handle hotkeys? | 09:16 |
| Daniel2 | Inferus, it didnt work...gonna try that now | 09:16 |
| rypervenche | I don't know mawst | 09:16 |
| anygivenname | IIitz_: here is /etc/rsyslog.conf ===> http://paste.ubuntu.com/519551/ | 09:16 |
| mawst | I think you will need to invoke something beyond bash scripting rypervenche. | 09:16 |
| Inferus | Daniel2: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/sub-process-usr-bin-dpkg-returned-an-error-code-1-a-171107/ | 09:16 |
| mawst | rypervenche, I would look at see if there's something that already does what you want. | 09:17 |
| guntbert | guest00xx: what ubuntu version are you running? | 09:17 |
| Daniel2 | Inferus, just run the dpkg command: Errors were encountered while processing: postfix | 09:17 |
| acacios | help, There is no speed when i download something,what should i do then?only wait? | 09:17 |
| guest00xx | guntbert, 10.10 | 09:17 |
| rypervenche | mawst: Basically I want to use glc to record my video games, but since I can't get it to work with my Logitech USB headset, I thought I would record audio simultaneously using arecord since that DOES work. | 09:17 |
| llutz_ | Daniel2: its a 3rd-party repo you're installing postfix from? | 09:18 |
| Gnea | Daniel2: well, it says it can't find the initscript - does it include it with the package? | 09:18 |
| Gnea | llutz_: looks like a mirror | 09:18 |
| mawst | rypervenche, it may be easier just to edit out the unwanted bits and start recording before hand. | 09:18 |
| guntbert | guest00xx: in 10.10 there is e17 in the repos. did you update the repos? | 09:18 |
| guest00xx | guntbert, yes, but lemme try again and then will tell you the results | 09:19 |
| Daniel2 | llutz_, its a cached mirror of the repos | 09:19 |
| Gnea | Daniel2: have you looked at the contents of the package yet? | 09:19 |
| Daniel2 | Gnea, i was just following the instructions on a guide on the ubuntu wiki | 09:19 |
| Daniel2 | told me to install postfix using: sudo apt-get install postfix | 09:20 |
| Gnea | Daniel2: so you haven't? | 09:20 |
| Daniel2 | Gnea, nope | 09:20 |
| Gnea | makes sense | 09:20 |
| Gnea | Daniel2: okay, can you pastebin this please: dpkg --contents /var/cache/apt/archives/postfix_2.7.0-1_i386.deb | 09:21 |
| s_v_e_n1 | Daniel2: I've never found the apt-cacher stable. especially if a download failed it still uses the roken (incloplete) package. | 09:21 |
| s_v_e_n1 | Try to remove the mirror and use original sources | 09:21 |
| MKUltraII | can someone help me install webcam studio on 10.10 please | 09:21 |
| Daniel2 | s_v_e_n1, was going to try that next | 09:21 |
| rypervenche | mawst: Hmmm, yes I could do that but I would prefer to find a way to make this work. That way if I want to pause the video I don't have to edit the audio everytime I pause my recording... I'll keep looking into it. Thanks for your responses. | 09:21 |
| Gnea | MKUltraII: what's webcam studio? | 09:21 |
| Daniel2 | Gnea, dpkg-deb: failed to read archive `/var/cache/apt/archives/postfix_2.7.0-1_i386.deb': No such file or directory | 09:21 |
| guest00xx | guntbert, i got it, thanks :) | 09:22 |
| mawst | Sure rypervenche, good luck. Also, maybe someone on the forums would know. | 09:22 |

| venky10 | Cool. Thanks all. Will try these. | 10:07 |
| brontosaurusrex | venky10, 1st mplayer dump to wav (search for exact command line) 2nd use oggenc file.wav (search for exact command lines) <- this is to go around ffmpeg misteries, later figure out how to pipe from command1 to oggenc directly | 10:07 |
| brontosaurusrex | venky10, http://linux.die.net/man/1/oggenc | 10:08 |
| coz_ | acacios, although I never really use conky... I would addume that the conky.config may have to be changed...yes? | 10:08 |
| coz_ | acacios, rather i would "assume" | 10:08 |
| ilovefairuz | acacios: conky is (normally) painted directly on the desktop background, not in a window, read it's man page | 10:09 |
| venky10 | brontosaurusrex: looks complex although a script might be good once I figure out the exact commands. Will try. Thanks | 10:09 |
| cigan_ | i have instaled ubuntu server LAMP packadge, where i can get the commands to config server? | 10:09 |
| ilovefairuz | cigan_: to config what exactly ? | 10:10 |
| sonny | I have problem with installing libgtk2.0-dev in lucid, anybody can help? | 10:10 |
| acacios | coz_ thank you for your tips. | 10:10 |
| Krishnandu | cigan_, You need to edit the respective conf files | 10:10 |

| cigan_ | ya, but i need to start the server? | 10:10 |
| brontosaurusrex | venky10, check http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/cat-multimedia.php for script examples maybe | 10:10 |
| Krishnandu | cigan_, /etc/init.d/apache2 start | 10:10 |
| coz_ | acacios, i wasnt trying to be smart mouthed ... but my guess is that the config must be the issue and not ubuntu :) | 10:10 |
| Krishnandu | cigan_, BTW it's automatically started when PC boots | 10:11 |
| brontosaurusrex | i've installed 'nautilus elementary' in 10.10, how to get rid of it? | 10:11 |
| Krishnandu | cigan_, sorry Ubuntu boots | 10:11 |
| sonny | it's dependency hell problem, libgtk2.0-dev: Depends: libglib2.0-dev (>= 2.21.3) but it is not going to be installed | 10:11 |
| ilovefairuz | cigan_: what server? be more specific | 10:11 |
| tgywa | My system is showing a considerablly high load average. I can't see any resource using that high CPU or memory, what could go wrong ? load average: 3.22, 14.97, 27.82 | 10:11 |
| coz_ | acacios, you could join #conky channel | 10:11 |
| sonny | and when i try to install libglibe it tell another depency problem | 10:11 |
| ilovefairuz | tgywa: are you running a multicore machine? | 10:11 |
| sonny | no | 10:12 |
| airtonix_ | I seem to be having a pretty hard time working out how to make open-ldap store its events in a separate log file from /var/log/syslog | 10:12 |
| tgywa | ilovefairuz, yes | 10:12 |
| ilovefairuz | sonny: pastebin the command and its output | 10:12 |
| coz_ | sonny, what were you trying to installl that gave the error readouts initially?? | 10:12 |
| acacios | coz_ yeah ,good idea,thank you,i'll try it. | 10:12 |
| tgywa | ilovefairuz, cpu cores : 2 | 10:12 |

| Krishnandu | cigan_, as I said before... /etc/init.d/apache2 start /etc/init.d/mysql start | 10:14 |
| VMaury | postgresql install works when ubuntu is installed, but the server fails to start when postgresql is installed on Ubuntu liveCD... | 10:14 |
| Daniel2 | s_v_e_n1, you still here? | 10:15 |
| Krishnandu | VMaury, Live CD is only for testing before install. Not for installing packages and making changes. | 10:15 |
| Krishnandu | VMaury, you can make changes but they will not persist. | 10:16 |
| VMaury | thx for your answer. You're right, but I'm building a custom liveCD which requires postgre | 10:16 |

| coz_ | sonny, I can try but I may have missed what your apt-get command was that required the dependecies in the first place | 10:18 |
| Krishnandu | Daniel2, /etc/init.d/postfix?? You better reinstall | 10:18 |
| phasma | anybody able to help me with grub2 a moment, please? | 10:18 |

| shosho-14 | hi | 10:21 |
| ilovefairuz | tgywa: not at all, something is consuming your cpu | 10:21 |
| coz_ | sonny, then close that dialog and then click the main window;'s "Reload" button | 10:21 |
| ilovefairuz | shosho-14: hello | 10:21 |
| Krishnandu | phasma, I believe this is #ubuntu and Ubuntu's Support Channel. Other distros are not supported here | 10:21 |
| manhunter | hi | 10:22 |
| Krishnandu | phasma, Try #gentoo | 10:22 |
| phasma | Krishnandu: This is being called from Maverick. That is the host OS right now | 10:22 |
| tgywa | ilovefairuz, I use both top and htop ... but can't see any process using CPU more than 0.0 % | 10:22 |
| sonny | coz_, ok, and i should try to install that package again? | 10:23 |
| VMaury | anyone experienced this postgresql install failure on Ubuntu 10.10 liveCD? | 10:23 |
| coz_ | sonny, now click "Search" and type in libgtk and scroll down the list and look for the libgtk2.0-dev package | 10:23 |
| Daniel2 | greppy and llutz_, thank youu | 10:23 |
| Daniel2 | il try these :) | 10:23 |
| Krishnandu | phasma, When you select gentoo linux from boot menu that throws "Not Found Kernel" error right?? | 10:23 |
| ilovefairuz | tgywa: are you running compiz? | 10:24 |
| hariom | Hi, I have recently install Ubuntu Lucid in my laptop and not able to play any audio. YouTube video plays but without audio | 10:24 |
| Krishnandu | hariom, sudo apt-get install restricted-extras | 10:24 |
| phasma | Krishnandu: Correct | 10:24 |
| coz_ | sonny, did you find the package? | 10:24 |
| sonny | coz_, i do what you said, but it gave me dependency error again | 10:25 |
| phasma | Krishnandu: Guessing I need to call it from inside the chroot, right? | 10:25 |
| Krishnandu | phasma, That's right. You're missing the kernel. I mean GRUB doesn't find it's kernel image in /boot | 10:25 |
| coz_ | sonny, this is a fresh install of maverick or an upgrade? | 10:25 |
| phasma | Krishnandu: Any idea why it does not find it? It is right there | 10:25 |
| sonny | i'm using peppermint ice, based on ubuntu lucid | 10:26 |
| Krishnandu | phasma, That's why I said try #gentoo | 10:26 |
| sonny | coz_, i'm using peppermint ice, based on ubuntu lucid | 10:26 |
| sonny | coz_, peppermint use ubuntu repository | 10:26 |
| coz_ | sonny, ooo i know nothing about that but ok ...close synaptic then open a terminal and type sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 10:26 |
| pksadiq | !peppermint | 10:26 |
| === SoulShadow is now known as Shadows`sleep | ||
| phasma | Krishnandu: Hrm. Thanks | 10:27 |
| Daniel2 | greppy, and llutz_ it worked! thank you! | 10:27 |
| anygivenname | I think this link is speaking about my case but i dont fully understand http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/HOWTO_fail2ban | 10:27 |
| Krishnandu | phasma, May be some problem with gentoo. So try their support channel first. | 10:27 |
| hariom | How to install audio support in Lucid? | 10:27 |
| Krishnandu | hariom, I already said sudo apt-get install restricted-extras | 10:28 |
| phasma | Krishnandu: Aye. I have done so. Was assuming I might get help here seeing Ubuntu is the host OS. Thanks, nonetheless | 10:28 |
| hariom | Krishnandu: can you further detail what these restricted-extras package have? | 10:29 |
| coz_ | hariom, you are having sound issues ..yes? did you open a terminal and type alsamixer,,, make sure your card is listed there and then check that the sliders are up and none are muted...if muted hit the "m" keyboard key to unmute and that only works if it is available for your card | 10:29 |
| anygivenname | IIutz_: http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/HOWTO_fail2ban | 10:29 |
| hariom | I just want audio, no other packages like office or gui etc | 10:29 |
| obengdako | Krishnandu, you didn't address that to hariom so be easy on him | 10:29 |
| pksadiq | !audio | hariom | 10:29 |
| ubottu | hariom: If 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. | 10:29 |
| sonny | coz_, thanks, i try to discuss this problem with peppermint users | 10:29 |
| llutz_ | anygivenname: as i said, i don't use fail2ban, just know what it was made for | 10:29 |
| obengdako | hariom, when you startup do have sound playing? | 10:29 |
| coz_ | sonny, do they have an irc channel? | 10:29 |
| Krishnandu | obengdako, Sorry but he's missing codecs. | 10:29 |
| hariom | obengdako: no | 10:30 |
| coz_ | sonny, why did you choose peppermint? | 10:30 |
| Krishnandu | hariom, that contains basic needed packages like, JRE, Flash, audio/video codecs etc. | 10:30 |
| sonny | coz_, yes, and a have forum, but they didn't answer me yet | 10:30 |
| obengdako | Krishnandu, yep he definitely is missing them but he also doesn't have sound at all hariom | 10:30 |
| coz_ | sonny, oh I see...what is their channel? | 10:30 |
| sonny | coz_, it use lxde, it's light, and i can install it on my Flash disk , and have portable OS! | 10:31 |
| Krishnandu | obengdako, Ohh sorry...but he didn't mentioned that. He said he's playing an audio file but that's not playing... | 10:31 |
| coz_ | sonny, understood... but why not lubuntu instead of peppermint? | 10:31 |
| sonny | coz_, irc.spotchat.org | Channel: #peppermint | 10:31 |
| meh3 | hey guys, is it possible to set ssh server on ubuntu desktop to use 2 different ports for ssh? | 10:31 |
| obengdako | hariom, if you are using gnome click your sound volume control icon and what does it say and if all is well there we get the codecs | 10:31 |
| ilovefairuz | meh3: why so? | 10:32 |
| meh3 | so i can use port 22 for local use and another port to accesss from the internet | 10:32 |
| llutz_ | meh3: yes | 10:32 |
| coz_ | sonny, lubuntu has lxde instead of gnome | 10:32 |
| sonny | coz_, i don't know that distro at that moment, but i think i should try that too! | 10:32 |
| meh3 | llutz_, how can i do that? | 10:32 |
| ilovefairuz | meh3: why would you want to do that? | 10:32 |
| pksadiq | can I boot into tty from USB without loading any GUI and no programes other than that is vital, fo that It boots so fast for troubleshooting ? | 10:32 |
| llutz_ | meh3: man sshd_config look for "Port" | 10:32 |
| meh3 | ilovefairuz, i just told you why.. so i can use port 22 for local use and another port to access from the internet | 10:32 |
| obengdako | hariom, what's happening | 10:33 |
| meh3 | llutz_, thanks | 10:33 |
| coz_ | sonny, I believe you may fair better with lubuntu instead | 10:33 |
| llutz_ | meh3: are you behind a router? | 10:33 |
| ilovefairuz | meh3: the purpose being? | 10:33 |
| meh3 | llutz_, yes | 10:33 |
| llutz_ | meh3: just use portforwarding from external port=12345 to internal=22 | 10:33 |
| meh3 | ilovefairuz, cuz ppl are doin ssh bruteforce attack on port ssh? wats your problem? | 10:33 |
| llutz_ | meh3: no need to have sshd running on 2 ports | 10:33 |
| pksadiq | can I boot into tty from USB without loading any GUI and no programes other than that is vital, fo that It boots so fast for troubleshooting ? | 10:34 |
| llutz_ | meh3: even if its possible | 10:34 |
| coz_ | anygivenname, did you try sudo apt-get install fail2ban... not sure installation was your issue | 10:34 |
| ilovefairuz | meh3: having a non-standard port won't stop them but suite yourself | 10:34 |
| sonny | coz_, thanks for your offer, i'll try that | 10:34 |
| meh3 | llutz, hmm ive never done that before.. is it like a normal portforwarding setting? | 10:34 |
| llutz_ | meh3: yes | 10:34 |
| meh3 | ilovefairuz, yes it does if they are just attackin random ips from the ISP | 10:34 |
| * obengdako going to bath | 10:34 | |
| meh3 | they wont know wat to attack if they dont know the port | 10:34 |
| meh3 | but watever | 10:34 |
| brokenG650 | Can someone help with this: after a failed attempt to install 7 , my ubuntu could not boot with the error kernel panic, something something , i couldnt get it to boot off a thumbdrive and now when i reinstalled ubuntu 10.10 i am just getting a text login, but can get a graphical login when running from live cd | 10:35 |
| meh3 | llutz_, alright ill check with my router.. i didnt know i could do that | 10:35 |
| ilovefairuz | meh3: they scan the machines, install fail2ban | 10:35 |
| llutz_ | meh3: using random ports won't stop serious attacks, just script-kiddies | 10:35 |
| schneider_ | hey guys | 10:35 |
| meh3 | ilovefairuz, read what i wrote again =) | 10:35 |
| meh3 | llutz, no on is attackin me personally | 10:35 |
| schneider_ | i installed ndisgtk and loaded the windows drivers. what to do next? | 10:35 |
| Krishnandu | hariom, So aren't you getting any other sounds too or just not getting anything while playing files. | 10:35 |
| meh3 | one* | 10:35 |
| ABJayo | !panels | 10:36 |
| meh3 | atleast i dont think | 10:36 |
| ubottu | To reset the gnome panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 10:36 |
| llutz_ | meh3: hope dies last :) | 10:36 |
| anygivenname | coz_: my fail2ban is up & running....all my issue is.....ssh does not log log-ins in auth.log | 10:36 |
| meh3 | llutz_, yeah, still, cant say changing the default port from 22 to something else wouldnt help | 10:36 |
| anygivenname | coz_: accordingly fail2ban rules arent applied | 10:36 |
| coz_ | anygivenname, ah ok... well... I cant help with that specific issue because I dont have use that but if no one here can help at this time you could try ##linux channel ...they may have a broader base of info for this | 10:37 |
| meh3 | right? | 10:37 |
| llutz_ | meh3: it just will keep your logs clean for a while, it won't really increase security (imo) | 10:37 |
| pksadiq | can I boot into tty from USB without loading any GUI and no programes other than that is vital, fo that It boots so fast for troubleshooting ? | 10:38 |
| schneider_ | nobody? | 10:38 |
| pksadiq | !patience | pksadiq | 10:38 |
| ubottu | pksadiq, please see my private message | 10:38 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: restart | 10:38 |
| meh3 | llutz_, i personally think it will keep me away from ppl who scan default ports on ip blocks.. | 10:38 |
| hariom | Krishnandu: restricted-extras has several packages which I don't want like open-jdk. I want to keep my system minimalistic. Just need to install right codecs etc. | 10:39 |
| meh3 | if they scan me specificly to find what ports are open thats something else ofcourse | 10:39 |
| llutz_ | meh3: thats what i meant with: using random ports won't stop serious attacks, just script-kiddies | 10:39 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: and then? | 10:39 |
| hariom | restricted-extras is around 475MB | 10:39 |
| anygivenname | coz_: thanks '#linux needs invitation | 10:39 |
| coz_ | anygivenname, yeah since fail2 is not a specific issue I bet ##linux channel would be able to help :) | 10:39 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: then it should work if you installed the right driver | 10:39 |
| meh3 | llutz_, yeah.. thats what im hoping for | 10:39 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: but it doesnt work | 10:39 |
| user99 | hi, is there a command which will display login details like uptime from previous logins? | 10:39 |
| coz_ | anygivenname, is your nick registered? | 10:39 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: i got the driver from the official driver cd ololol | 10:39 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: in a terminal: ndiswrapper -l | 10:39 |
| llutz_ | meh3: but go and try it, its easy | 10:39 |
| anygivenname | no | 10:39 |
| obs3rv3r | user99: use w | 10:40 |
| coz_ | anygivenname, that | 10:40 |
| pksadiq | !test | 10:40 |
| ubottu | Failed! | 10:40 |
| coz_ | anygivenname, that's why | 10:40 |
| Krishnandu | hariom, well...in that case just play the file and your player will automatically search for and install the needed codecs. | 10:40 |
| coz_ | anygivenname, just register your nick and you should be able to join that channel | 10:40 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: sis163u : driver installed | 10:40 |
| anygivenname | ok...thanks | 10:40 |
| schneider_ | device (0BF8:100F) present | 10:40 |
| pksadiq | can I boot into tty from USB without loading any GUI and no programes other than that is vital, fo that It boots so fast for troubleshooting ? | 10:40 |
| user99 | thanks obs3rv3r, is there any command that can provide this data from previous logins? | 10:41 |
| coz_ | anygivenname, you can register by typing /msg nickserv register --help | 10:41 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | pksadiq: yeah. | 10:41 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: did you black list the default driver? | 10:41 |
| user99 | like if i want to find the uptime from yesterday? | 10:41 |
| pksadiq | SpaceGhostC2C: how? | 10:41 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | pksadiq: Just remove gdm from startup | 10:41 |
| obs3rv3r | user99: uptime is listed there. Uptime is the time since the system is booted. | 10:41 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: i dont understand a word :D i only installed the driver yet | 10:41 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | pksadiq: or your display manager. | 10:41 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: paste the output of: sudo lshw -C network | 10:42 |
| ilovefairuz | !paste > schneider_ | 10:42 |
| ubottu | schneider_, please see my private message | 10:42 |
| user99 | ok, i'll rephrase my query, i am looking for a command to generate data on logins, bot from the current and past sessions | 10:42 |
| user99 | both# | 10:42 |
| pksadiq | SpaceGhostC2C: but still it takes a lot of time to boot, what I need is only a basic shell with vital commands | 10:42 |
| Leman_Russ | have any of you had issues with Dual booting with Linux Mint?? | 10:42 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | pksadiq: maybe try a different distro? | 10:42 |
| hariom | Krishnandu: I don't think a command line player will find for right codecs. | 10:42 |
| Leman_Russ | I tried a dual boot with Windows 7 and Linux Mint, and it was not having it | 10:42 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Leman_Russ: what's your real question? | 10:42 |
| pksadiq | SpaceGhostC2C: ubuntu fails here? | 10:42 |
| Krishnandu | hariom, you're using mplayer..?? | 10:43 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Leman_Russ: tryin the linux mint channel. | 10:43 |
| obs3rv3r | user99: check if last helps you. | 10:43 |
| obs3rv3r | !last > user99 | 10:43 |
| pibarnas | user99: data or messages? | 10:43 |
| Leman_Russ | SpaceGhostC2C: My question is valid, as I want to dual boot Ubuntu with another OS | 10:43 |
| obs3rv3r | user99: last shows you the sessions of previous logins | 10:43 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: after you paste, try: sudo modprobe ndiswrapper | 10:43 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Leman_Russ: Okay, so I still don't see any question or data to help us help you. :) | 10:44 |
| Leman_Russ | I will rephrase it if you want; "Have any of you had any issues with Ubuntu and dual booting?" | 10:44 |
| Krishnandu | !anyone | Leman_Russ | 10:44 |
| ubottu | Leman_Russ: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 10:44 |
| ravi_ | from template i used form s action with url i am not able to the view method | 10:44 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: check this http://crunchbanglinux.org/pastebin/811 | 10:44 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | I was trying to avoid the factoid. :) | 10:44 |
| user99 | thanks obs3rv3r: this is a lot like what i was looking for | 10:44 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: is it usb-based? anyhow, try the modprobe | 10:44 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: nothing happens when i type this | 10:45 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: no its not usb | 10:45 |
| Cars10 | ilovefairuz: what is modprobe? | 10:45 |
| ravi_ | how do i call view s method from template | 10:45 |
| Leman_Russ | I will be more specific. I dual booted Ubuntu with Windows 7. Windows 7 was an OEM install. After I installed Ubuntu, the computer would not boot at all and I got a grub error. | 10:45 |
| cigan_ | when i type "sudo service apache2 start" get this mensage : unregonized service | 10:45 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Cars10: man modprobe | 10:45 |
| bullgard4 | What Ubuntu programs use the environment variable LANGUAGE? | 10:45 |
| Leman_Russ | I am not interested in dual booting with Windows and Ubuntu | 10:45 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Leman_Russ: What error was it? | 10:45 |
| Cars10 | SpaceGhostC2C: ??? | 10:45 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: type: iwconfig ... do you see a wlan0 interface? | 10:45 |
| Leman_Russ | Grub 2 error | 10:45 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: which interface? | 10:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Leman_Russ: Maybe tell if it was a Wubi install? | 10:46 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: no i dont see it | 10:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Cars10: type man modprobe and read what it is. :) | 10:46 |
| Leman_Russ | SpaceGhostC2C: What is a Wubi install? | 10:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Leman_Russ: When you install from inside windows. | 10:46 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: paste the file /var/log/messages | 10:46 |
| Cars10 | SpaceGhostC2C: i dont have ubuntu here where i am atm | 10:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Leman_Russ: Did you install Ubuntu by booting off the cd, or from inside windows? | 10:46 |
| coz_ | Leman_Russ, you could try to reinstall grub with this link http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide | 10:46 |
| ilovefairuz | Cars10: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/modprobe | 10:47 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Cars10: man pages are available online. :) | 10:47 |
| Leman_Russ | SpaceGhostC2C: No, I made a live CD, then booted off the CD | 10:47 |
| Cars10 | ilovefairuz: thx | 10:47 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ilovefairuz++ | 10:47 |
| Krishnandu | Leman_Russ, Can you be more specific. What tpe of error. | 10:47 |
| pksadiq | tsimpson: Hi, how to teach a new word to ubottu? | 10:47 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: permission denied. :o | 10:47 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Leman_Russ: Okay, so the way to fix it is in umm, one sec. I'm in terminal only, takes me a bit longer to google... | 10:47 |
| cyclist2 | Hello, there! I cannot connect to googleearth server's anymore; I am on Lucid; is there a solution? | 10:47 |
| Krishnandu | cigan_, /etc/init.d/apache2 start | 10:47 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: gksudo gedit /var/log/messages | 10:47 |
| coz_ | Leman_Russ, I would also put the the ubuntu cd and when you see the keybaord image at the bottom hit Enter,,, from the list choose check file integrity or check cd however it is listed then do the same for memory test | 10:47 |
| Leman_Russ | Krishnandu: I am not sure now, sorry. it was a while ago. I dont have the error now, as I whipped the whole drive and installed Linux from scratch | 10:48 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: should i paste it? | 10:48 |
| Krishnandu | Leman_Russ, LFS?? Or you installed Ubuntu. | 10:48 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: yes all of it | 10:48 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ilovefairuz: can you give Leman_Russ the recovering ubuntu after installing windows link? | 10:49 |
| cigan_ | typed "/etc/init.d/apache2 start" no such file or directory | 10:49 |
| Krishnandu | Leman_Russ, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows | 10:49 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: http://crunchbanglinux.org/pastebin/812 | 10:49 |
| Leman_Russ | My original question was merely speculative, so prevent me issues in the future; i was wondering if this was a common problem with Ubuntu and Windows, or if it could happen with two Linux installs sitting side by side | 10:49 |
| Leman_Russ | Thanks for the links | 10:49 |
| Krishnandu | Leman_Russ, Try that only if you are getting grub> screen | 10:49 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Leman_Russ: It can happen any time when grub gets borked for any number of reasons. | 10:50 |
| Leman_Russ | SpaceGhostC2C: Thank you. | 10:50 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: that's not all of it, press ctrl + a, ctrl + c to copy all | 10:50 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Leman_Russ: you can boot into the livecd and reinstall grub with a set of commands, I usually can give right away, but I'm dealing with a lot of silly here. :) | 10:50 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: thats what i exactly did | 10:50 |
| Krishnandu | SpaceGhostC2C, Well I provided him the link. I think he can do it now :P | 10:51 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: notice the last date, it's oct 22 | 10:51 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Krishnandu: Hopefully. Who knows. | 10:51 |
| Leman_Russ | SpaceGhostC2C: I appreciate your help. I dont have the problem at the moment; I was merely trying to enhance my understanding, should I run into it again. I don't want to have to wipe the drive again! | 10:51 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: sudo apt-get install pastebinit && sudo pastebinit /var/log/messages | 10:51 |
| Krishnandu | Leman_Russ, Ohh no..!! Don't run that then... | 10:51 |
| Leman_Russ | Krishnandu: Dont worry, I wont! | 10:52 |
| Leman_Russ | Krishnandu: :~) | 10:52 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: that should be the complete pastebin http://pastebin.com/wPBcaQyt | 10:52 |
| Krishnandu | Leman_Russ, What type of problem were you having..?? Are you still having any problem with GRUB?? | 10:52 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Leman_Russ: you won't have to wipe it at all, I believe it was sudo grub-install /dev/{device} iirc | 10:53 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Krishnandu: scroll up, he isn't having the problem atm. | 10:53 |
| Leman_Russ | Krishnandu: To summarise; I bought an off the shelf Lenovo which came with Win 7. I wanted Linux, so decided to dual boot. I installed Ubuntu, and then the whole system wouldnt load. I got past the BIOS but I could not even get to a boot option screen: I cant remember the exact error, but it was Grub 2 something... Sorry | 10:54 |
| Krishnandu | SpaceGhostC2C, Ok...so why are we providing him diff solutions..?? | 10:54 |
| Leman_Russ | So, I just erased the entire drive and installed Ubuntu flat | 10:54 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Krishnandu: Because that's the nature of the beast (linux) | 10:54 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Krishnandu: Community support and millions of ways to do the same thing. Some better than others. | 10:54 |
| Leman_Russ | Then, Ubuntu would not recognise my network adapter, so I wiped again and installed Mint | 10:54 |
| Leman_Russ | Worked fine. | 10:54 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: grep ndiswrapper /etc/modules .. any output ? | 10:54 |
| Leman_Russ | I now want to Dual boot with Ubuntu, but am worried that the same thing will happen | 10:55 |
| Leman_Russ | Hence my inquiries | 10:55 |
| egypt | hello everybodt | 10:55 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: negative. | 10:55 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Leman_Russ: Oh, sorry about the network adapter fail. Sad day. We're here if you need help. :) | 10:55 |
| Leman_Russ | Apologies if I was too vague | 10:55 |
| Krishnandu | SpaceGhostC2C, I believe he's not having any problem right now. He was having some problem that he's not sure of. So we are basically providing himwrong solutions. | 10:55 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Leman_Russ: The grub problem shouldn't happen right away. | 10:55 |
| egypt | 不可以说中文？ | 10:55 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: grep -R ndiswrapper /etc/modprobe.d | 10:55 |
| Krishnandu | !cn | egypt | 10:56 |
| ubottu | egypt: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk | 10:56 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Krishnandu: I already understand the solution silly, he's asking for solutions to the problems that might come up that he's outlined. Maybe scroll up for a bit and try to understand the problem? | 10:56 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: and now? paste the output? ^.^ | 10:56 |
| Leman_Russ | Well, I suspected my original issue was that the Win 7 install I got with the machine was OEM and has a recovery partition. it was also a Japanese version, if that means anything | 10:56 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: yes | 10:56 |
| Krishnandu | SpaceGhostC2C, anyway sorry :( | 10:56 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Leman_Russ: Well, my main hint would be to backup anything you don't want to lose. | 10:56 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Krishnandu: No worries. :) | 10:56 |
| monfort | Wow, I am completely lost ! Trying to join the Docufoundation channel on IRC, but don't even understand how I got here :( | 10:56 |
| Leman_Russ | SpaceGhostC2C: Yes, of course | 10:56 |
| Krishnandu | :) | 10:57 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: also paste all of: ndiswrapper -l | 10:57 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | monfort: #freenode is helpful. | 10:57 |
| egypt | thank you | 10:57 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: are you running a 64bit machine? | 10:57 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: http://pastebin.com/qVeHNUya | 10:57 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: no, 32 bit | 10:57 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: sis163u : driver installed | 10:58 |
| schneider_ | device (0BF8:100F) present | 10:58 |
| schneider_ | that was the "ndiswrapper -l" | 10:58 |
| pksadiq | !enter | schneider_ | 10:58 |
| ubottu | schneider_: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 10:58 |
| schneider_ | sorry :D | 10:58 |
| kunde | i just updated my eeepc with NBe 10.04. afte reboot i cant connect to wireless, because of "current password no longer matches login keyring". how can i solve this keyring issue. thanks for help, i wasted already 2 hours on this. | 10:58 |

| obs3rv3r | lyrae: it went back a few years ? :) | 11:00 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: it looks like the driver files you installed are either corrupted or incomplete | 11:00 |
| lyrae | obs3rv3r, ? =( | 11:01 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ubottu: tell monfort about register | 11:01 |
| ubottu | monfort, please see my private message | 11:01 |
| obs3rv3r | lyrae: try firefox -safe-mode in command line . | 11:01 |
| Krishnandu | lyrae, Ubuntu theme or FF theme..?? | 11:01 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: but ndisgtk says that everything is ok | 11:01 |
| schneider_ | but well, ill load a driver from the interwebs | 11:01 |
| lyrae | Krishnandu, ubuntu theme. ive changed to 3 diff ones to see. No firefox themes installed | 11:01 |

| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: i already found a link yesterday | 11:02 |
| lyrae | chrome freezes my computer =( | 11:02 |
| lyrae | so it has to be firefox | 11:02 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: but i thought that its not necassary because i have the drivers from the cd | 11:03 |
| obs3rv3r | lyrae: What computer are you running on ? | 11:03 |
| pksadiq | !browser | 11:03 |
| ubottu | Browsers available for Ubuntu: Firefox (GTK, Gecko engine), Konqueror (KDE/Qt, KHTML engine), Epiphany (GTK, Gecko engine), Dillo (GTK), w3m (terminal-based), Links2 (terminal-based or graphical, see !man page), edbrowse (command-line), Opera (Qt, proprietary) | 11:03 |
| obs3rv3r | lyrae: Chrome with max tabs does really pisses one off though :) | 11:03 |
| lyrae | obs3rv3r, intel quad, nvidia card | 11:03 |
| lyrae | no like..if i open chrome now nothing happens | 11:03 |
| lyrae | but itll freeze in the future | 11:03 |
| monfort | love opera, but not since I can't use Twitter with it anymore -_-" | 11:03 |
| lyrae | maybe in 10 mins.. maybe in 5 hours | 11:03 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: some times the installation goes through even if not all the required files are present | 11:03 |
| lyrae | if i dont open chrome, computer will run for days | 11:03 |
| lyrae | no freeze | 11:03 |
| obs3rv3r | monfort: Oh why ? | 11:04 |
| lyrae | was an issue in last ubuntu versin too | 11:04 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: http://www.sis.com/download/download_step2.php?id=155883&country=USA&Image791.x=58&Image791.y=11 | 11:04 |
| llutz_ | bullgard4: LANGUAGE not just LANG? | 11:04 |
| obs3rv3r | lyrae: Create another user and login and see. If that works replace your profile .. ( do take backups ) | 11:04 |
| monfort | I don't know, the new Twitter is simply not working, I see the blue bar and the search bar, and the rest is empty | 11:04 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: but someone posted that he used the 163u driver which worked pefectly | 11:04 |
| bullgard4 | llutz_: Yes. | 11:04 |
| obs3rv3r | monfort: Oh I don't see my profile picturein my own profile in the new twitter. | 11:04 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: oh, it is :D my fault | 11:04 |
| pibarnas | lyrae: weird. here=chromium+lucid. | 11:05 |
| Jakes | Can anyone suggest me an open source tool for information extraction based on a dictionary?? #help | 11:05 |
| lyrae | pibarnas, yea. and nothing in logs either. just freezes | 11:05 |
| bullgard4 | Jakes: dict | 11:05 |
| llutz_ | bullgard4: i've never seen it, it's none of the standard-ones. | 11:06 |
| monfort | I trully like it, especially thanks to lists, it makes me order my contacts and all the news I receive ( it's a real worktool in the marketing ) | 11:06 |
| bullgard4 | llutz_: Nonetheless it exists on my Maverick computer which I have updated step-by-step from Ubuntu 6.06. | 11:06 |
| Jakes | bullgard4: Can u tel the package name or url | 11:07 |
| llutz_ | bullgard4: check where it get's set. maybe theres a comment "why" it is present | 11:08 |
| Krishnandu | Jakes, He already suggested you the package I think. Did you tried sudo apt-get install dict?? | 11:08 |
| bullgard4 | Jakes: The name of the package is 'dict'. | 11:08 |
| rypervenche | In this line of code, "glc-play [stream file] -o - -a NUM | lame -hV2 - audio.mp3" what do the lone "-" mean? | 11:08 |
| Jakes | Ya got it .. Thanks guys.. I hope it is a simple text extractor :-) Thnkx again | 11:09 |
| llutz_ | rypervenche: stdout (read from, write to) | 11:09 |
| qweqweqwe | isn't dict installed by default anyway? | 11:09 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: do you know where the *.inf is located? | 11:09 |
| llutz_ | rypervenche: read from stdin sry | 11:09 |
| === jbake_ is now known as jbake | ||
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: started downloading, give me a couple of minutes | 11:09 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: or cd into the folder and paste: ls -R | 11:10 |
| rypervenche | llutz: Ok, thank you. | 11:10 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: i know what was my fault . i used the driver from the USB folder in the win98 folder | 11:11 |
| AdvoWork | hi there, in 10.04, ive got pidgin, and i think the default msn program, every time i get a message, i get a hover window pop top right, cant see how to disable it, any ideas please? | 11:11 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | AdvoWork: Look at the preferences in pidgin. | 11:11 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: and use the XP one | 11:12 |
| bullgard4 | llutz_: I don't know an algorithm to determine where an environment variable has been set in an Ubuntu computer. '~$ set | grep LANGUAGE' does list it though. | 11:12 |
| AdvoWork | SpaceGhostC2C, i have done, can't see anything related to it.. | 11:12 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | AdvoWork: Having to do with notifications, I wish I had a more photographic memory for this stuff. :( | 11:12 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: there is no inf in the winNT folder | 11:12 |
| bredoto | hia | 11:12 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: paste: ls -R | 11:13 |
| llutz_ | bullgard4: fgrep -r LANGUAGE /etc/* ~/* | 11:13 |
| Jakes | Sorry guys thats the wrong tool .. What I need is a sentence extractor based on some keywords | 11:13 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Jakes: grep | 11:13 |
| bredoto | need a help! I have vlc player that accepts multicast video traffic. How can i monitor net-flow of that traffic and how to recognize moments whet traffic is off using bash or any porgs? | 11:15 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: there is no *.inf ._ . | 11:15 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: wait | 11:15 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | bredoto: maybe try in the vlc channel? | 11:15 |
| LunaVorax | Hello everyone ! | 11:16 |
| bobbi | i have a problem when enabling nvidia proprietary graphic driver, my virtual consoles (Ctrl-Alt-F[1-6]) are flickering and are unusable. what is this? | 11:16 |
| karni | bobbi: lucky you, my are not even accessible ;d (ASUS UL30VT) | 11:17 |
| bredoto | SpaceGhostC2C, please provide me with more details | 11:17 |
| LunaVorax | I've just installed Ubuntu 10.10 on an external HDD but has been installed on the primary hdd instead of the external HDD. Therefore I can't boot on one or the other hdd. How do I remove Grub2 from the primary hdd and install it on the external HDD ? | 11:17 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | bredoto: The issue sounds like it's specific to vlc, I suggest that you might get better support from that specific community. Google doesn't bite. :) | 11:18 |
| bobbi | karni: your grpx drivers? :( i have google'd it, and one solution was something about framebuffer... | 11:19 |
| bredoto | SpaceGhostC2C, =) | 11:19 |
| Krishnandu | LunaVorax, Read this : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows And install GRUB in your External HDD | 11:19 |
| karni | bobbi: didn't have time to look into that. I've just put I'm I don't have those tty accessible ;( | 11:19 |
| Stava | In my UFW rules should i have both allow 22 and limit 22/tcp, or will the first rule override the second? | 11:19 |
| karni | bobbi: my nvidia card is on, but system is using integrated chip for the time being | 11:19 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Stava: the last one is somewhat redundant, no? | 11:20 |
| LunaVorax | Thanks Krishnandu I'm reading it right away | 11:20 |
| karni | bobbi: (I've got 2 cards in my laptop) | 11:20 |
| Krishnandu | LunaVorax, :) | 11:20 |
| Stava | SpaceGhostC2C, I just read a little in the manual and it suggested that rule for ssh, to limit login attempts per ip | 11:20 |
| bobbi | karni: ok | 11:20 |
| karni | bobbi: good luck with that. you might find someone here to help you. just ask from time to time :) | 11:21 |
| aldo | hello | 11:21 |
| karni | bobbi: preferably with your hardware specs / laptop model | 11:21 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Stava: but the /tcp part isnt' needed, or the rule if you have the rule previously for all, right? | 11:22 |
| bobbi | karni: you're the first to answer :) | 11:22 |
| Stava | SpaceGhostC2C, right | 11:22 |
| zagabar | I am trying to set up ics so that my server acts as a router for my stationary PC. I have done it many times before, but now when installing 64-bit ubuntu on the server, it doesn't work. I used the four commands here to set it up on the server: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing I am using windows XP on the other pc and it hasn't changed since the ics was working before. The internal network works since t | 11:22 |
| karni | bobbi: I'd call it "welcoming to the same problem club" ;) | 11:22 |
| Stava | SpaceGhostC2C, but anyhow, will the limit rule still apply? | 11:22 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Stava: Is it interfereing at all? | 11:22 |
| aldo | my toshiba satellite m500 going overheat when running ubuntu. why? | 11:23 |
| Stava | SpaceGhostC2C, Oh I get it now, the rule can be either allow, limit or reject | 11:24 |
| bobbi | karni: hehe yeah, damn these proprietary drivers. | 11:24 |
| Stava | not two :o | 11:24 |
| karni | bobbi: true. that's why, eventually, I'm using noveau (if I'm using it. I'm not even sure) | 11:24 |
| psycho_oreos | aldo, a rough guess would be because there's no thermal protection, do you hear a fan spinning up and does it become loud? | 11:25 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | aldo: It overheats because you need better airflow in/around your laptop | 11:25 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: i'm extracting it from windows files | 11:25 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: thats possible? | 11:25 |
| bobbi | karni: ok, maybe you have some idea of how i can apply proper resolution to my laptop without prop. drivers? because thats the reason i have to use them.. | 11:26 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: yeap, cabextract and unshield | 11:26 |
| aldo | i hear my fan spinning when running windows, but no in ubuntu | 11:26 |
| megh | is there a way to make 'add-apt-repository' work behind a proxy that use authentication. i am using ubuntu 10.04 | 11:27 |
| ilovefairuz | aldo: that's good actually | 11:27 |
| nixot | Hello | 11:27 |
| karni | bobbi: some time ago there was xorg.conf ... but now it's legacy. I don't know how to change the resolution manually (from the console) | 11:27 |
| nixot | !find libstdc++.so.5 | 11:28 |
| ubottu | File libstdc++.so.5 found in ia32-libs, libstdc++5 | 11:28 |
| bobbi | karni: ok, some googling ahead then, thx | 11:28 |
| karni | bobbi: good luck mate | 11:29 |
| aldo | can you help me with my laptop? please... | 11:29 |
| acicula | karni: xrandr | 11:29 |
| karni | bobbi: ^ xrandr :) | 11:29 |
| ssd | Prompt a repository where is kvirc new for ubuntu 10.10? | 11:29 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | megh: cant you set up ubuntu to use the proxy automatically? | 11:29 |
| karni | acicula: thanks :) | 11:29 |
| bobbi | karni, acicula: ok i will look into that :) | 11:30 |
| rocket16 | Hi all | 11:31 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: and what now? | 11:31 |
| megh | SpaceGhostC2C: i ve used apply systemwide options while setting the proxy settings | 11:31 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: fails miserably | 11:31 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | megh: and it fails miserably? | 11:31 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: :o daaaaaaaamn | 11:31 |
| rocket16 | Is it possible to integrate Feed-Readers with Indicator Applet? (Like Gmail notifier for Mails). | 11:31 |
| megh | i still get the error 111 <connection refused> | 11:31 |
| megh | i can still run apt-get just fine from command line, its just adding ppa thats giving problem, i have to manuualy add the repo to sources.list and import the gpg keys | 11:33 |
| bobbi | acicula: the problem really is that the proper resolution of my laptop (1280 x 768) ain't an option in the monitor preferences when using "linux drivers", can i successfully overrun this with xrandr? | 11:34 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: it's an internal card, not a usb stick ? | 11:34 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: yep. internal. | 11:34 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: paste: lsusb | 11:34 |

| Juice10 | I have a multicore Intel Xeon 64-Bit with 8 gigs of ram, but ubuntu was installed as 32-Bit. Free -m says I'm using 7000mb of ram. I thought 32-bit systems couldn't use more than 4 gigs of ram, is this correct? | 11:35 |
| acicula | bobbi: no you will have to add/specify this somehow | 11:35 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: also paste: lspci | 11:35 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Juice10: It can if it has the proper kernel stuff. | 11:35 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: http://pastebin.com/XbSqaKwp | 11:36 |
| bobbi | acicula: ok thx | 11:36 |
| acicula | Juice10: only processes are limited to the 4GB boundary | 11:36 |
| Krishnandu | Juice10, Yes that's correct. But Ubuntu has PAE kernels, so you can use more than 4GB RAM with 32-bit with full utilization. | 11:36 |
| bullgard4 | llutz: the command which you suggested is still running. | 11:36 |

| SAngeli | Hi I am having something very very strange. Anytime I burn a CD-ROM with ubuntu server either 32 or 64 bit when it goes to verify the cd it finds errors (I have changed several CD-ROMs). I try to install the system and while installing it I get corrupted files. What do I have to do??? | 11:37 |
| Juice10 | SpaceGhostC2C, acicula, Krishnandu: thanks! | 11:37 |
| Benkinooby | what player for ubuntu is best to do some small dj work (mixing songs and stuff) i even don't need scratching (i'd kill the flow). any experiences? | 11:37 |
| SAngeli | I download it from this site: http://www.ubuntu.com/server/get-ubuntu/download | 11:37 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: it's attached internally to the usb bus not the pci! | 11:37 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: use the USB .inf from setupNT | 11:37 |
| Juice10 | when upgrading from 32-bit to 64-bit ubuntu, the only possible way is doing a clean install. Is this correct? | 11:38 |
| rww | Juice10: yes | 11:38 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: ok | 11:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Juice10: yar. | 11:38 |
| SAngeli | Do I have to use a CD-ROM or a DVD-ROM ??? | 11:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | rww: you're here too? :( | 11:38 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | SAngeli: either. | 11:38 |
| rww | SpaceGhostC2C: no | 11:38 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: after that: sudo modprobe -r ndiswrapper; sudo modprobe ndiswrapper | 11:38 |
| Krishnandu | SAngeli, for burning CD both will do. | 11:39 |
| SAngeli | SpaceGhostC2C, ok, but how do I solve this issue? | 11:39 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | SAngeli: Well, technically a CD-R or DVD-R | 11:39 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | SAngeli: Burn slower? | 11:39 |
| blahdeblah-web | Hi. Anyone experienced in grub2 & cryptsetup? I'm moving my laptop from one physical hard disk to another, and i've stumbled at the last hurdle. Here's a summary of my problem: http://ubuntu-au.pastebin.com/EdfEmtnT | 11:39 |
| SAngeli | why I am not able to use a CD-RW? | 11:39 |
| Krishnandu | SAngeli, you can | 11:39 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | SAngeli: you can if you want. | 11:40 |
| blahdeblah-web | What am i doing wrong? How can i get the encrypted disk to be found via path or name instead of UUID (or even just update the UUID)? | 11:40 |
| Juice10 | rww, SpaceGhostC2C: thanks | 11:40 |
| SAngeli | Krishnandu, SpaceGhostC2C I will try for the third time slower. The issue is NOT when burning but when Verifiying | 11:41 |
| Krishnandu | SAngeli, Well...in that case I'd suspect the ISO image itself. Better use torrent for downloading. | 11:41 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | SAngeli: The issue doesn't happen in the verifiction process, but when you are burning it. did you md5sum the image you downloaded of ubuntu server? | 11:41 |
| Jordan_U | blahdeblah-web: Change the UUID of the copied FS. UUID should be unique :) | 11:41 |
| SAngeli | SpaceGhostC2C, where do I get this md5sum? I am in windows 7 OSù | 11:42 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: there is nothing in the output | 11:42 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: iwconfig | 11:42 |
| Krishnandu | SAngeli, Right...md5sum does the same thing as the verification you mentioned. So it's always better to md5sum rather than verifying after burning. Coz you' | 11:42 |
| Jordan_U | blahdeblah-web: sudo tune2fs -U random /dev/sdXY . | 11:42 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | SAngeli: On the website. Google also has information "Ubuntu iso md5sum" | 11:42 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: it shows wlan0 | 11:42 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: iwlist scan | 11:42 |
| Krishnandu | SAngeli, you've already wasted your media. | 11:43 |
| SAngeli | fortunately are all CD-RW | 11:43 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Krishnandu: Unless it's a *rw | 11:43 |

| Krishnandu | SAngeli, 1st of all there are lots of hash checker for Windows too, 2nd download the ISO using torrent, 3rd don't burn avobe 8x | 11:44 |
| blahdeblah-web | Jordan_U: The fs was not recreated - it was moved over with pvmove. So the UUID would not change. | 11:44 |
| rocket16 | Brasero fails to copy CDs. Which package should I add? | 11:44 |
| cigan_ | I instaled ubuntu server with LAMP Packaged, but when the login pups up i dont see apached or mysql started i only see the login? | 11:44 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: http://pastebin.com/Eb36WFwB | 11:44 |
| SAngeli | I will get myself a md5sum file first and see | 11:44 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | rocket16: copy to what? your computer or where? | 11:44 |
| Krishnandu | rocket16, Brasero fails in almost everything. Better use K3b :P | 11:45 |
| Krishnandu | SpaceGhostC2C, cd 2 cd copy | 11:45 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: so it works, you can select a network from the applet in top left | 11:45 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | cigan_: you won't see it right away. | 11:45 |
| rocket16 | Krishnandu: Indeed, :D But my laptop runs GNOME. So, I prefer to have Brasero. | 11:45 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Krishnandu: you can help him :) | 11:45 |
| schneider_ | ilovefairuz: ill try | 11:45 |
| Krishnandu | rocket16, doesn't matter which DE you use | 11:45 |
| rocket16 | SpaceGhostC2C: I mean, making image files from CDs, or CD to CD. | 11:45 |
| Krishnandu | SpaceGhostC2C, ohh no...i didn't meant that. | 11:46 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Krishnandu: He's talking about having all the kde junk on his gnome. | 11:46 |
| Krishnandu | SpaceGhostC2C, ya :P | 11:46 |
| cigan_ | ya but i executed this command "/etc/init.d/apache2 start" it says its not there | 11:46 |
| Jordan_U | blahdeblah-web: Then I misunderstood your problem, I thought both disks were in one machine at the same time. | 11:46 |
| rocket16 | Krishnandu: Well, K3B (being a KDE program) takes a little bit more to start on GNOME (for loading KDE libraries), and doesn't integrate so well with GNOME. :( | 11:46 |
| Krishnandu | cigan_, do you have apache installed..?? | 11:46 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: echo ndiswrapper | sudo tee -a /etc/modules .. to load the driver on boot | 11:46 |
| Jordan_U | blahdeblah-web: What did you mean by "reboot and start swearing at the boot loader because it still has a reference to the UUID of the (old) disk" ? | 11:47 |
| blahdeblah-web | Jordan_U: they were, but only one file system was ever present. It was mounted the entire time, and i pvmoved it from one PV to another in the same VG | 11:47 |
| cigan_ | LAMP packadge is not supose to install apache/php/mysql? | 11:47 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | cigan_: When you install server edition, you won't be shown anything but the login prompt. | 11:47 |
| Krishnandu | rocket16, who said you that..?? There is noting like that. In that case you may try gnome-baker | 11:47 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | cigan_: try sudo service apache2 start | 11:47 |
| rocket16 | GNOME-Baker is cool. But I really love Brasero, lol. :D | 11:47 |
| blahdeblah-web | Jordan_U: The message which comes up is: cryptsetup: lvm device name (/dev/disk/by-uuid/..............) does not begin with /dev/mapper | 11:47 |
| Krishnandu | SpaceGhostC2C, that failed too :( | 11:47 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | cigan_: can you verify apache2 is installed? | 11:48 |
| Krishnandu | rocket16, lol...what's point of that love if your love can't get your work done :P | 11:48 |
| SAngeli | SpaceGhostC2C, Krishnandu I have performed the md5sum and they are correct | 11:48 |
| cigan_ | how do i do that? | 11:48 |
| schneider__ | ilovefairuz: thank you so much, it works :D | 11:48 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | SAngeli: So, burn the disk no faster than 8X | 11:48 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | cigan_: sudo apt-get install apache2 | 11:48 |
| SAngeli | I am doing it at 12X | 11:49 |
| ilovefairuz | schneider_: you're welcome, don't forget the tee command | 11:49 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | SAngeli: do it at no faster than 8x | 11:49 |
| SAngeli | SpaceGhostC2C, let's see. It is the first time I get this issue | 11:49 |
| Krishnandu | SAngeli, I believe that's the root of the problem. | 11:49 |
| zagabar | I am trying to set up ics so that my server acts as a router for my stationary PC. I have done it many times before, but now when installing 64-bit ubuntu on the server, it doesn't work. I used the four commands here to set it up on the server: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Internet/ConnectionSharing I am using windows XP on the other pc and it hasn't changed since the ics was working before. The internal network works since t | 11:49 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Always burn OS discs really slowly. | 11:49 |
| SAngeli | OK | 11:49 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | zagabar: who is serving the internet? The linux or the windows? | 11:49 |
| cigan_ | it says "the packadge isnt there" | 11:49 |
| Krishnandu | cigan_, what??? :O | 11:50 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | cigan_: sudo apt-get update | 11:50 |

| b0wter_ | Hey, i've installed a fresh 10.04 and from what i remember there was an option hidden somewhere that could toogle all gtk applications toolbar to be either text + graphic or graphic/text only. is that true or is my memory cheating me? | 11:51 |
| rocket16 | Krishnandu: Got Brasero working swiftly! I installed cdrdao and it worked. :D | 11:51 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | b0wter_: maybe look in gconf2 ? | 11:51 |
| Krishnandu | SpaceGhostC2C, hey isn't that package comes by default..?? | 11:51 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Krishnandu: What? | 11:51 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Krishnandu: apache? It sits on the cd, but isn't included by default. | 11:52 |

| sonny | <SpaceGhostC2C>, thanks, i have problem with installing libgtk2.0-dev, can you help me? | 11:53 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | sonny: any error messages? | 11:54 |
| rocket16 | Hi modar | 11:54 |
| schola911 | Hi Ubuntu support. 10.10 scores 10/10 for our office. Well done :-) | 11:54 |
| rocket16 | schola911: Grand news. :) | 11:55 |
| Krishnandu | schola911, :) | 11:55 |
| sonny | <SpaceGhostC2C> it's dependency problem, it looks for some package newer version that used in lucid | 11:55 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | sonny: Grab it by hand? | 11:55 |
| sonny | <SpaceGhostC2C>like zlib1g-dev 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3ubuntu1: amd64 i386 | 11:55 |
| sonny | witch it's on maverick | 11:55 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | sonny: I suggest getting the package by hand from the repositories. | 11:56 |
| coz_ | sonny, yes I am here | 11:56 |
| cigan_ | SpaceGhostC2C it says "the network failed", i dint set up a dhcp network in the installation process, can that cause errors on the LAMP service installation/configuration? | 11:56 |
| aprilhare | hello. i have a older windows keyboard - 106 key including wake up, sleep and power - and i want to map meta to left win, and I want the right win key to open the ubuntu applications menu. meta was easy enough the map, but how do i make right win do what i want? | 11:56 |
| sonny | <SpaceGhostC2C>, i c thanks | 11:56 |
| Krishnandu | cigan_, I don't think so | 11:56 |
| sonny | coz_, thanks i asked my question from SpaceGhost | 11:56 |
| zagabar | SpaceGhostC2C: The linux is serving the internet. | 11:56 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | cigan_: you have no network? Then you'll have to pop in the cd and mount it and then get the apache2 debs. | 11:56 |
| sonny | coz_ sorry to bother :) | 11:57 |
| === zz_slidinghorn is now known as slidinghorn | ||
| coz_ | sonny, ok cool...did you get the problem solved? | 11:57 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | coz_: s/he has a problem with a package in maverick when s/he is in lucid. | 11:57 |
| coz_ | SpaceGhostC2C, oh!!!!! | 11:57 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | coz_: I suggested s/he get it by hand from the repos. | 11:57 |
| coz_ | SpaceGhostC2C, cool | 11:57 |
| cigan_ | ok so the LAMP server failed to install and i need to do it manually? | 11:57 |
| sonny | coz_, not yet, but i find out, it looks for some package that is newer than lucid version | 11:57 |
| sonny | coz_, like zlib1g-dev 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3ubuntu1: amd64 i386 | 11:58 |
| coz_ | sonny, ok :) | 11:58 |
| Krishnandu | SpaceGhostC2C, I think first time cigan_ said me he choosed to install LAMP Server while installing Ubuntu. | 11:58 |
| sonny | coz_, so should i add maverick to my source list? or it's better to download it by hand? | 11:58 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | cigan_: or you can pop in the cd, add the cd to apt with apt-cdrom and then try running whatever the command was to install groups of stuff. I can't remember it. :( | 11:59 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | sonny: hand. | 11:59 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | You would mess up your install if you added it to your sources. | 11:59 |
| zagabar | SpaceGhostC2C: I can neither ping DNS names nor ipaddresses outside the local subnet (from the windows pc) but I can ping local addresses. The server connected to internet, doing the ICS can ping everything | 11:59 |
| coz_ | sonny, well no dont add it to the sources list... i would simply download the maverick lubuntu iso ...burn it and reinstall but be sure to back up anything you need to be fore doing this let me try to find the link hold on | 11:59 |
| sonny | <SpaceGhostC2C>, ok i listen to you, and do this, i hope my problem get solve :) thank you very much | 12:00 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | zagabar: Which is the one connected to the internet? | 12:00 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | sonny: Just follow dependencies. :) | 12:00 |
| coz_ | sonny, here is one link http://lubuntu.net/blog/lubuntu-1004-now-available-download | 12:00 |
| sonny | coz_ thanks, i download that | 12:00 |
| Diamondcite | zagabar: Is the server with ICS actually ICS? Did you assign ubuntu a working IP address and gateway if DHCP isn't setup locally? | 12:00 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | coz_: What is s/he trying to do exactly? | 12:00 |
| coz_ | sonny, keep that link opened until it has fnished downloading because you want to check the md5sums on that iso | 12:01 |
| coz_ | SpaceGhostC2C, that I am not sure of other than libgtk.2-0-dev was not available | 12:01 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | coz_: So, the goal is unknown? Hrm, okay. | 12:02 |
| SAngeli | SpaceGhostC2C, I have done as you told me and also checked the md5sum but this is always what I get (having downloaded the files off the official ubuntu website. http://img267.imageshack.us/f/immaginekqg.png/ | 12:02 |
| coz_ | sonny, oh wait!! | 12:02 |
| === Molly is now known as Guest4732 | ||
| coz_ | sonny, that link is for ubuntu 10.04 | 12:02 |
| SAngeli | now either I quit or need to find a solution but I do not know what else to do | 12:02 |
| sonny | coz_ i see that, the lubuntu 10.10 is released too | 12:03 |
| zagabar | SpaceGhostC2C: The ubuntu one is conencted to the internet with eth0, and the other one is connected to the ubuntu one through eth1. | 12:03 |
| Guest4732 | Guys, I'm really worried about something. Unity is cool and all, but if Ubuntu moves to that... I'm stuck with GNOME. Problem with that is GNOME is *forcing their users to use Gnome-shell. Does anyone think we'll be able to stick with 2.3 or 2.4? | 12:03 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | zagabar: you can use dnsmasq or dhcp to do it. | 12:03 |
| mwero | hi all | 12:03 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Guest4732: is this support related? | 12:03 |
| SAngeli | SpaceGhostC2C, si it something that has to do with the phisical CD-ROM that you think? | 12:03 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | SAngeli: It's possible. | 12:03 |
| SAngeli | I have already tried 2 CD roms | 12:03 |
| Akshitb | Hi All | 12:04 |
| Guest4732 | Probably not. I just had to get it off my chest. If there is a better channel, please name it. xD | 12:04 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | SAngeli: Do you have a need for a complex partitioning scheme? | 12:04 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Guest4732: #ubuntu-offtopic | 12:04 |
| zagabar | Diamondcite: eth0 on the server with ICS is connected to the internet with dhcp and it works. The other PC is connected to eth1 with a static address | 12:04 |
| Guest4732 | Yes, thankyou! | 12:04 |
| zagabar | SpaceGhostC2C: But shouldn't this way work too? | 12:04 |

| ekis420 | SpaceGhostC2C: what does control-D do ? | 12:05 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | ekis420: I don't know the technical name, but it's like "done" | 12:06 |
| Diamondcite | zagabar: This probably isn't proper.. but maybe for eth1 you can configure it to share the intertnet with automatic dhcp? (I don't know if all the needed packages are there) | 12:06 |
| ekis420 | no other options ? | 12:06 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | zagabar: You don't need ICS, you need a dhcp server. | 12:06 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | zagabar: I'd suggest dnsmasq. | 12:07 |

I installed on another computer, it worked fine. Thing is, I have this in the laptop working now, but as the desktop had an nvidia card, and this has some laptop thing (I think it's SIS) I can't get more than 800x600 in the monitor adjustment program. Is th | 12:12 |
| copynpaste | ere a way I can up it to 1280x800, which I think is the maximum res on a fujitsu v5535? Sound, wireless, keyboard and trackpad all work fine btw! | 12:12 |

| slidinghorn | c0rrupt0r, try using sudo rm (you can use -rf as a modifier if you're absolutely sure you want the file gone) | 12:14 |
| uid0owl | did anyone experience the same problem, did anyone solve it | 12:14 |
| copynpaste | True, but at least it works, and as the most strenious thing I want to do on this is watch a few movies that should be alright. I don't see how the nvidia drivers will fix the issue, as this laptop doesn't have an nvidia graphics chip. | 12:14 |
| ikonia | uid0owl: that's just a warning to say it's a closed source driver, not a problem | 12:14 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | SingAlong: you can try the easiest method, which is to get to wired network then gksudo jockey-gtk | 12:14 |
| uid0owl | ikonia, well, it won't load anyway, just as in this thread http://www.uluga.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1600063 | 12:14 |

| slidinghorn | c0rrupt0r, well you can always change permissions using sudo chmod -- only issue i think you'd have is if you accidentally delete a file you dont want to delete | 12:16 |
| ikonia | uid0owl: according to that error, that driver does not support it | 12:16 |

| sisif | Hello guys. I really need a suggestion here: I have a Acer Travelmate notebook and my BT swith is not working anymore. Back on 10.4 the BT used to be enable by default at boot time, but since I`ve upgraded to 10.10 I can`t seem to make it work again. It does not show up on "lsusb" or in "lshw". My guess is that the power for the dongle is off. Is there any way I can turn it on, except from the dip-switch (which is broken). I do know it was possible in 10.4. | 12:22 |
| jscinoz | SingAlong: I don't actually use ubuntu on most of my machines, I'm a gentoo user... but to get my 8192SU to work, you need to enable the appropriate driver in the staging tree of the kernel config, then google for the firmware blog | 12:22 |
| jscinoz | SpaceGhostC2C: then probably PCI i'd imagine | 12:22 |
| histo | SingAlong: that still doesn't stop interference | 12:22 |

| SingAlong | jscinoz: ya but mine says RTL8191SEvB. does that have problems too? | 12:23 |
| jscinoz | SingAlong: it's not necessarily problems, its just that the driver is very new | 12:23 |
| jscinoz | SingAlong: so its not in the default kernel, its in the staging tree | 12:23 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | SingAlong: It's just trying to make sure the kernel has the drivers for your NIC | 12:23 |
| Roland | ikonia, i remember there was a command line app that listed the permissions of one specific symlink per folder basis | 12:23 |
| ikonia | Roland: just follow the symlink, that is where the permissions will be failing | 12:24 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Roland: ls -la /path/to/symlink ? | 12:24 |
| ikonia | Roland: if the symlink is to /usr/local/myfile.txt, look at /usr/local/myfile.txt | 12:24 |
| Roland | SpaceGhostC2C, it wasn't ls | 12:24 |
| ikonia | Roland: it is ls | 12:24 |
| SpaceGhostC2C | Roland: Hrm. I'm not sure then. | 12:24 |
| ikonia | Roland: ls -la on the destination of the symlink | 12:25 |
| histo | Roland: ls -l | 12:25 |
| SingAlong | jscinoz: is this a new card? | 12:25 |
| histo | Roland: that will show you where the symlink points and permissions | 12:25 |
| SingAlong | jscinoz: if you have problems realtek is offering linux drivers here :) http://bit.ly/9PTbZv | 12:28 |

| slidinghorn | Robinux, as a follow up to what SingAlong said...you can install unrar in the terminal (sudo apt-get install unrar) | 12:52 |
| SingAlong | Robinux: the archive manager can open any kind of archive but just needs the specific pkg installed. there's one for 7z files, rar files etc | 12:52 |

| atroxes | firtvid20: You can't 'fix' a failing hard drive. What you can do though is salvage what you can from it and place that on another drive. | 13:17 |

| atroxes | firtvid20: Using any backup method though, implies that you can actually read from your failing harddrive. If you are lucky (cross your fingers and hope) then you should be able to create a 1:1 backup of your drive. | 13:19 |
| ActionParsnip | firtvid20: could use partimage :) | 13:19 |
| Shattered1 | sava: thanks. | 13:19 |

| TiCPU_ | mmm... my ubuntu-server 10.04 boots then hangs at "ureadahead-other main process terminated with status 4, recovery mode hangs at the same place, last thing I did was apt-get upgrade and apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 14:01 |
| servis_pz | coz_: my friend is using many filetypes because of his job. But i told him some filetypes (which i look from help files of evince and okular) . they can open the same filetypes. but don't forget openoffice supports doc files too but it can never open properly %100 like ms office. so that is why i am asking you if evince and okular is on the same level to open their filetypes. | 14:01 |
| ActionParsnip | synical: please, next time dont bother | 14:01 |
| erUSUL | Scarra3: in livecd you can test all the hardware. run a 3d app? enable desktop effects? try to connetc to a BT device. | 14:01 |

| TiCPU_ | is there a way to get more verbosiness ? | 14:01 |

| TiCPU_ | ActionParsnip: it will mostly be used as a server, I was about to uninstall networkmanager and some other stuff. | 14:02 |
| TiCPU_ | ActionParsnip: and it worked on the last install, and to get SDL on KVM | 14:02 |
| coz_ | servis_pz, did you look here ? yes? http://okular.kde.org/formats.php also ms office files open generally 100% in abiword | 14:03 |
| sresu | I was close. Thanks ActionParsnip, Aemaeth | 14:03 |
| ActionParsnip | TiCPU_: you are misunderstanding the terms, the server is a server with no X server. This makes it more secure (less services running) as well as lower resources used. The desktop will install the desktop OS as you expect. There is nothing stopping you from installing the desktop OS then installing LAMP + SSH on it and running it as a server | 14:03 |

| TiCPU_ | ActionParsnip: sure, works both way around, still doesn't fix it | 14:04 |

| TiCPU_ | I guess I'll just reinstall, got no time to debug this morning | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip | TiCPU_: i suggest you install the desktop OS, much easier | 14:04 |
| TiCPU_ | ActionParsnip: last time it jsut worked, I reinstalled because I corrupted to root FS by a mistake of mine, but now.. it just does not make sense | 14:05 |
| TiCPU_ | I guess it's because I did upgrade after install ubuntu-desktop | 14:05 |

| TiCPU_ | I love LVM | 14:06 |
| Chell | Hi all, where does MC check if "external view" is turned off? (I wish to change it) | 14:06 |
| rabbit_kan | is ubuntu10.04 can be the host system for LFS? | 14:06 |
| servis_pz | coz_: first sorry for my english. i think i can not explain you the problem. i knwo which filetypes can open okular and evince. they are same filetypes (at least many of them). but the questions is not that. the questiosn is : they both supports the same filetypes at the same level ? | 14:06 |
| liwende | 你好 | 14:06 |

| rabbit_kan | TiCPU,ok i got it,thank you so much. | 14:08 |
| coz_ | servis_pz, ooo darn I dont speak that at all :( but all I can suggest is to install okular and test or abiword etc you can always uninstall them cleanly | 14:08 |
| Scarra3 | Its not a systematic touchpad its an alps | 14:08 |

| jafar | ahh | 14:43 |
| jafar | :D | 14:43 |
| jafar | thanks | 14:43 |
| Shattered1 | ActionParsnip: There is a button "Main menu" in "preferences" | 14:43 |
| FloodBot2 | jafar: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 14:43 |
| Shattered1 | ActionParsnip: But menu still has "old shortcuts" i deleted in it. | 14:43 |
| jafar | bye | 14:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Shattered1: I don't use the menu much so I'm not much use here | 14:44 |
| twoten | maybe I should try installing lilo? | 14:44 |
| Shattered1 | ActionParsnip: Did you edit shortcuts? | 14:44 |
| Shattered1 | ActionParsnip: Keyboard ones. | 14:44 |
| ActionParsnip | Shattered1: no but I know you can edit the items in that folder to modify the menu | 14:45 |
| twoten | anyone here know anything about grub? | 14:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Shattered1: I don't use keyboard shortcuts. | 14:45 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | ah, | 14:45 |
| izinucs | !grub2 | twoten Seen this yet? | 14:45 |
| ubottu | twoten Seen this yet?: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Ubuntu 9.10. For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 14:45 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | hersey! | 14:45 |
| Shattered1 | ActionParsnip: K, will solve on my own. I like panel and openbox. | 14:45 |
| Eryn_1983_FL | no shortcuts? how do you survive?? | 14:45 |
| ActionParsnip | Shattered1: outside the defaults. Ithink there's a config file in $HOME some place that defines them | 14:46 |
| Shattered1 | ActionParsnip: Less ram than gnome-pnale with openbox. | 14:46 |
| ActionParsnip | Shattered1: try asking in #lubuntu | 14:46 |
| twoten | that's good, yes I have spent several hours looking at grub2 docs | 14:46 |

| GuyLewin | Not sure if related | 14:49 |
| umashanthi | sipior: I'm having some issues in doing apt-get update http://pastebin.com/RLMjdJy9 Pls guide me if possible | 14:49 |
| ActionParsnip | shang: I use the one which. Is built into the browser, works fine | 14:49 |
| GuyLewin | Can anyone help me make Apache & MySQL under Ubuntu take less RAM and swap | 14:49 |
| GuyLewin | My system is crashing all the time | 14:50 |
| BluesKaj | shang, chromium has it's own download manager | 14:50 |
| shang | ActionParsnip: but if I want to break up the big file into pieces to download them at the same time, is there an extension for that? | 14:50 |
| sipior | umashanthi: change the archive location you're trying to pull files from, the server you've specified is not reachable at the moment. | 14:50 |
| pc1 | ActionParsnip: status file? | 14:50 |
| shang | BluesKaj: but if I want to break up the big file into pieces to download them at the same time, is there an extension for that? | 14:50 |
| ActionParsnip | shang: I know uget exists as a download but not sure about breaking stuff up | 14:50 |
| edbian | GuyLewin, The only way to really control how much space a program takes up is to write that program differently. How much ram / swap are they taking up? Perhaps there is a leak | 14:51 |
| shang | ActionParsnip: um.... ok thanks | 14:51 |
| umashanthi | sipior: I'm getting this for past few weeks. Any idea about a possible location? | 14:51 |
| GuyLewin | edbian: They are taking all the swap, got some RAM but apache just crashes after 10 days of running | 14:51 |
| GuyLewin | I have to manually hard restart | 14:51 |
| edbian | GuyLewin, how much is all? 128MB? 4Gb ? | 14:52 |
| ActionParsnip | pc1: its a text file listing all installed apps and such. I suggest you back it up before editting. I am not sure of the location or name of the file but I know it exists | 14:52 |
| ActionParsnip | shang: I've seen people mention jdownloader too | 14:52 |
| GuyLewin | :) edbian: 1GB RAM | 14:52 |
| edbian | GuyLewin, Use an older version of one or both. | 14:52 |
| GuyLewin | edbian: Well, I'll try | 14:52 |
| GuyLewin | Though I was sure there was a way in the conf of each one of them | 14:53 |
| ActionParsnip | GuyLewin: buy RAM. You can double your RAM for the price of a pack of smokes | 14:53 |
| GuyLewin | To limit some functions | 14:53 |
| shang | ActionParsnip: right, but if they are integrated into chromium, that would be awesome!! :) | 14:53 |
| edbian | GuyLewin, There is a way to tell synaptic "use this older version" I'm not sure how. I know it can be done. | 14:53 |
| GuyLewin | ActionParsnip: It's hosted @ RackSpace server | 14:53 |
| GuyLewin | It costs 2x | 14:53 |
| edbian | GuyLewin, If there is a memory leak it is likely not going to make a difference what features are turned on | 14:53 |
| ActionParsnip | shang: uget watches the clipboard for file url copys | 14:53 |
| GuyLewin | edbian: How can I know if it's a memory leak? | 14:53 |
| ActionParsnip | GuyLewin: yikes | 14:53 |
| edbian | GuyLewin, Do the processes continually get bigger and bigger with no end in sight? It's a leak. Or you could look at the code :) | 14:54 |
| GuyLewin | edbian: Yeah, does get bigger and bigger. What can I do about it? :P\ | 14:54 |
| edbian | GuyLewin, Use an older version. Fix the source code. | 14:55 |
| umashanthi | sipior: How can I find another location? | 14:55 |
| edbian | GuyLewin, gotta go! Good luck | 14:55 |
| ActionParsnip | GuyLewin: does it leak in specific scenarios? Like while some of your code runs? | 14:55 |
| GuyLewin | ActionParsnip: Well, I'm generally running just WordPress installations | 14:55 |
| gaberlunzie | hi, i know ubuntu dev put the memory hog beam.smb process on high priority ... but until there's a fix, is there anything i can do to get relief from this major annoyance? | 14:55 |
| GuyLewin | Nothing special | 14:55 |
| GuyLewin | I got some system logs | 14:56 |

| MsIndioDeMC | Someone did the upgrade on chrome 6 to 7 and is in trouble in sync? | 15:14 |
| izinucs | AceKing: streets and maps is nice.. openstreetmap is getting there but not totally done.. it would be a good substitute.. it's not going to hurt anything to try the install that way.. but you can expect to do the initial update via terminal or tty if anything breaks. | 15:14 |

| lallu_ | yes i have but there is option to create flames around cursor | 15:19 |
| izinucs | supernicko: there's no way for the system to tell the difference between ringtone and conversation.. so it's a manual switch at the end of your conversation to the speakers | 15:19 |
| supernicko | izinucs, even though there is the option in skype to select the output for both? | 15:19 |

| Guest65791 | gaberlunzie: same error, but I think it may be reconfigured at next reboot. | 15:47 |

| venilsurya | gaberlunzie, Guest65791: This is how I got the audio working, though its absurd. Start alsamixer and be sure that the capture tab is enabled, and at max. Then, open pavucontrol. Go to the input tab. Select Microphone 2, and then select Microphone 1 | 15:48 |
| Guest65791 | will let u know if it has worked | 15:48 |

| b636bc7ca | megh: But /etc/init.d/<pretty much everything> already seems to call service(8), so what's the point of the big scary message when I cal /etc/init.d myself? | 17:30 |
| vigge_sWe | so how do I untar this .tar? I have been able to do it before... | 17:30 |
| Pici | vigge_sWe: tar xvf file.tar | 17:31 |
| b636bc7ca | hermanon: It's just something added to the name to enforce versioning in apt, I think | 17:31 |
| vigge_sWe | ah this time it worked :s | 17:31 |
| megh | <b636bc7ca> pls refer their webpage, they give their reasons | 17:31 |
| vigge_sWe | I used to do tar -xf file.tar lol | 17:31 |
| arkygeek | Pici: http://paste.ubuntu.com/519757/ is there any other info I should be providing? | 17:32 |
| utilitytrack | b636bc7ca: service(8) it's Ubuntu feature, use what you more like | 17:32 |
| Pici | vigge_sWe: That should work too, the -v is for verbosity. | 17:32 |
| b636bc7ca | megh: OK - I didn't see anything that addressed the question, so I guess I must just be reading past it, I'll keep digging | 17:32 |
| sipior | b636bc7ca: do what you want, of course. service makes it simpler to query your init scripts en masse, but it's just passing its options along to the script in /etc/init.d | 17:32 |
| b636bc7ca | sipior: Actually, the other way around - at least, on 10.10 | 17:33 |

| Fur10 | Hi, i've a problem with SoftwareRaid on ubuntu 10.10.. i've partioned, made the array, installed everything. I've tried to turn off an hd to simulate an hd failure and the system rebooot itself upon entering grub | 18:59 |
| erUSUL | mcmlxxix: you could use a separate boot partition ext3 or ext2 ( half a GiB of space is enough for it ). but personalyy i would not let windows touch a linux filesystem ;P ( even less so with a third party driver) | 19:00 |
| mcmlxxix | erUSUL as long as windows is only touching grub.cfg im ok with it | 19:00 |

| G0AT | hey guys anyone able to help me out with a Bash script I'm trying to figure out how to get working? | 19:01 |
| Mav_Merekat | mcmlxxix, it would have to touch the whole partition to get to it | 19:01 |
| mcmlxxix | well that's fine, as long as it's not the main linux partition | 19:02 |
| erUSUL | G0AT: #bash | 19:02 |
| mcmlxxix | so the separate boot partition idea is sounding even better | 19:02 |
| G0AT | thanks | 19:02 |
| mcmlxxix | that way I might not have to go back to ext3 | 19:02 |
| Mav_Merekat | mcmlxxix, if possible, you might want to back up your windows stuff, wipe the hard drive entirely, and install ubuntu first, (don't forget to set aside a partition for windows later) then reinstall windows | 19:02 |
| mcmlxxix | both OS's tend to take over the boot loader | 19:03 |
| mcmlxxix | i'd prefer that linux be the OS to handle it, which would probably be wiped out if i installed windows second | 19:03 |

| jerry_l | Travis-42: the easy way - transfer all files to a fat32 external drive (usb 1GB +) and take to other computer. | 19:16 |
| Mav_Merekat | lancesrage, you can try formatting the drive you want to store it on with another format that supports larger files than FAT32 | 19:16 |

| m0tan | got it setup on a windows print server too, but haven't tried pointing to it, i figured it'd have even more trouble with it. | 19:30 |
| jerry_l | PRINTER, is there a cache for the print jobs that you must empty? | 19:30 |
| sresu | llutz: Can that now be scheduled as system uptime = 0? | 19:30 |
| lancesrage | Mav_Merekat i wish i knew | 19:30 |
| sresu | llutz: Is it like that? | 19:31 |
| llutz | sresu: "now" means "actual time when command is issued" | 19:31 |
| cedriczg | m0tan, not sure generic drivers will help you. Good luck in the research. Sometimes it's better before buying a printer to ensure they have drivers available for linux. Brother printers are one of those brands | 19:31 |
| llutz | sresu: and since /etc/rc.local is run at boottime, it will shutdown 5h later | 19:31 |
| m0tan | cedriczg: ah i didnt buy it, it's in my workplace, just trying to connect to it, just happens to be the closest one to me. | 19:32 |
| sresu | llutz: Ok.. so as soon as system is started, it will shut it down after 5 hours for sure. Right? | 19:32 |
| llutz | sresu: but if you try to keep your kids from the computer, thats a social problem and cannot be solved by technical means :) | 19:32 |

| llutz | sresu: forget my solution, it has a big error in... my bad, sorry | 19:34 |

| elgh | rigved, how can it be when I just installed Ubuntu? | 20:20 |
| bb_1ubuntu | I have backed up my home, etc, usr and var folders from a separate user to an external drive. How do I copy them over to my fresh installation of meerkat without ruining the installation? | 20:20 |

| elgh | llutz, Geforce FX 7300 GS i believe. | 20:22 |
| bb_1ubuntu | qorep, i dont understand your second question | 20:22 |
| qorep | bb_1ubuntu: well, for permissions and stuff it's not stored as "qorep" for instance but rather with a number like "1001" | 20:22 |
| bb_1ubuntu | qorep, im still lost :( | 20:23 |
| llutz | elgh: edit grub bootoptions, try to add "nouveau modeset=0" | 20:23 |
| qorep | bb_1ubuntu: but what you could do is just move away the current home folder for some user, move their old things over, and then fix the ownership | 20:23 |
| bb_1ubuntu | qorep, its FDE | 20:23 |
| elgh | llutz, How do I do that? | 20:23 |

| llutz | elgh: reboot, hold left shift-key pressed to get the menu, press "e" to edit, look for the line ending with "quiet splash" and add to that line "nouveau modeset=0". press ctrl-x then | 20:24 |
| amarcolino | bb_1ubuntu, how did you backup most programs allow you to revert the backup unless all you did is cp | 20:24 |
| slidinghorn | bb_1ubuntu, wrong channel and wrong person -- my mistake :) | 20:24 |

| eaerth | seidos: i also keep getting modprobe fatal at boot, which seems to be a bit common on launchpad with no solution other than making it look like it's gone but the boot time still stays the same. | 20:56 |
| seidos | eaerth, wait, what, your cpu is "dropping to 50%"...it was higher before? | 20:56 |
| seidos | eaerth, rebooting frequently? does acpi work on your system? | 20:56 |
| eaerth | seidos: yes, it's normally 1.60ghz and drops to 800 and is way laggy... | 20:56 |
| shcherbak | tranq: this .deb installs on 10.04 (with bit hassle) -- https://launchpad.net/~loell/+archive/ppa/+files/gyachi_1.2.9-0.1%7Ekarmic_i386.deb | 20:56 |
| AHemlocksLie | Ubuntu 10.10 isn't reading my phone's memory card or my external hard drive when I connect them. I booted with the external already plugged in once, and it booted with it already read and mounted, but it won't work after boot. They show up on lsusb, but they're not in fsck -l, so I dunno how to mount them | 20:56 |
| eaerth | seidos: not familiar with acpi? | 20:56 |
| seidos | eaerth, oh, so you're saying that video is laggy, and notice a drop in cpu correlated to it. | 20:57 |
| shcherbak | tranq: there is proper ppa for gyachi too | 20:57 |
| annkas | I need to copy a folder from a hd with bad sectors. Can I use tar for that? Or can anybody help me with that sentence? | 20:57 |
| eaerth | seidos: i'm beginning to get so sick of ubuntu i'm going to switch distros... or even go back to windows all together... | 20:57 |
| marcos | alguem do brasil? | 20:57 |
| seidos | eaerth, advanced configuration power interface...hibernate, suspend. was saying it for suspend. i never reboot if i can avoid it | 20:57 |
| eaerth | seidos: yes and also, before i just rebooted this last time it was doing it and i wasn't even doing anything involved with video... no idea what is going on here. | 20:58 |
| tranq | shcherbak: m checking | 20:58 |

| realcooluser | annkas: might want to check out ddrescue | 20:58 |
| seidos | eaerth, i don't have a problem with other distros. #lug or #linux if you want general linux help. :) windows though, i really can't get behind i'm afraid. | 20:58 |
| eaerth | seidos: oh, right on. yeah i never use any of that and try not to reboot myself, most of the time. unless i'm working on something involving the configuration and such... | 20:58 |
| infid | when i try to :w a file that was saved in /mnt/cifs/foo vim tells me "WARNING: The file has changed since reading it!!!" even though i know no one else changed the file since i started viewing it. what could cause/solve this? | 20:58 |
| annkas | realcooluser, don't think I can choose just one folder ith ddresue | 20:59 |
| HACKER1993 | @AHemlockslie have you tried mount -a? | 20:59 |
| dajhorn | annkas: Give tar the --ignore-failed-read switch. | 20:59 |
| seidos | eaerth, yeah, same here. well, i have a 1.47ghz duo core and video isn't laggy, but i run karmic, couldn't get 10.10 to run on my notebook. | 20:59 |
| === SortiE|A is now known as SortiE | ||
| eaerth | seidos: hahahaha, oh i'm with you there... i think i was just getting ahead of myself... i really can't stand windows and when i switched to ubuntu it seemed amazing, back with karmic and then even lucid was great, no problem at all but now maverick is TERRIBLEEEE | 20:59 |
| annkas | dajhorn, yes, there it was :-) | 21:00 |
| infid | eaerth: that's what some people say every time they upgrade | 21:00 |
| AHemlocksLie | HACKER1993, I just tried that, I don't think anything happened, and there wasn't any output | 21:00 |
| infid | because theres changes that they have to adjust to | 21:00 |
| eaerth | seidos: so until i can get my friend to bring his external hdd over i'm stuck with it, then i can downgrade to lucid with a fresh install... | 21:00 |
| Wheheis | Hello. My computer freezes for an instant every 3 seconds, even without running any programs | 21:00 |
| Wheheis | and i can't find out why | 21:00 |
| seidos | eaerth, i think there is an issue with hardware compatibility. i think it may be rather political. did you try it out on live usb first? my next install will be from the alternate cd...it should be a learning experience, thought it might prove frustrating. it would be nice if i had another system to practice on first. | 21:01 |
| eaerth | seidos: funny thing is, i upgraded (non-clean install) from karmic to lucid and then did a fresh install for maverick thinking it'd be way nicer... not the case i guess. :S | 21:01 |
| HACKER1993 | @AHemlocksLie i think you may have to look up fstab if im right it should be on the ubuntu comunity docs page | 21:01 |
| utilitytrack | Wheheis: It's windows computer? :))) | 21:01 |
| Wheheis | noo, it's ubuntu | 21:01 |
| eaerth | seidos: i agree, yeah... and no i didn't try it out first, i regret it... | 21:02 |
| Wheheis | but it's a pretty old computer (pentium 3) | 21:02 |
| seidos | eaerth, we should probably talk in pm or in #ubuntu-offtopic. i don't want my inane opinions obfuscating the support channel | 21:02 |
| Wheheis | anyway, there must be some program running in the background that causes it | 21:02 |
| Wheheis | i'm using ubuntu 9.10 | 21:02 |
| schpleurgen | hi hi, having a weird problem in ubumtu i cant move the gnome windows up, down, or right, ive googled and googled but cant find an answer | 21:03 |

| dalton2345 | hi guys, is there a way to fix my internet speed? | 21:03 |
| dalton2345 | i called my provider, they said its ok, but its slow :( | 21:03 |
| AHemlocksLie | HACKER1993, docs say that's more for internal stuff like extra hard drives/partitions, not usb devices. Should I dig through it for something to try anyway? | 21:03 |
| seidos | dalton2345, why do you think it's slow? | 21:03 |
| Wheheis | utilitytrack: i already did that, the cpu isn't used for any specific program ("top" is the one using more resources). So i gues it's not a cpu issue | 21:04 |
| dalton2345 | seidos: i have no idea | 21:04 |
| utilitytrack | schpleurgen: Try this: <Alt>+<F7> | 21:04 |
| seidos | dalton2345, so you think it's slow but don't know why? i mean, what makes you think it is slow? | 21:04 |
| dalton2345 | seidos: ohhh i got you, i go to a video site and i have lag, while others dont | 21:05 |
| usuario_ | Hi! I have a little problem... I installed Ubuntu but it doesn't detect the DVD drives... however, the BIOS does so I assume the cables are correctly set... Is there anyway of re scanning the hardware like when you install it? Or any solution to this? | 21:05 |
| usuario_ | They are IDE drives. | 21:05 |
| brontoeee | Wheheis, and hd io is none? | 21:05 |
| schpleurgen | utilitytrack - unfortunately f7 trick doesnt work :/ its weird it just moves sideways right no matter what i do | 21:05 |
| Wheheis | brontoeee: where do I check that? | 21:06 |
| utilitytrack | Wheheis: If so, then you should look in system logs: /var/log/messages; /var/log/kern.log; etc | 21:06 |
| seidos | dalton2345, that could just be because of a lot of traffic on the video site, like youtube or hulu. you could try pausing the video for it to cache. you can try doing a speed test...i think dslreports.com has one. or try downloading a large file from a torrent, to see how fast it goes. torrents are usually quite fast | 21:06 |

| brick | A waste of a DVD | 21:27 |
| dougsko | Chaos2358: no, make a new directory, then mount the drive. so, 'mkdir foo; sudo mount /dev/sdb1 foo' | 21:27 |
| sudobash | I tried with the root crontab and exports but It wouldn't let me run sudobash's xstartup as root | 21:27 |
| dancek | killerrr, what are you using the system for anyway if you need it to be super-stable? ubuntu isn't meant for critical systems (imho) | 21:27 |
| killerrr | dancek: hmm ok so i will use 10.04 and i will add repos on the softwares which i want to update... | 21:27 |
| Chaos2358 | dougsko what do you mean make a new directory? | 21:27 |
| sudobash | is there a way to pipe a password to a: sudo login like: sudo login | password | 21:28 |

| Chaos2358 | dougsko nvm | 21:28 |
| dancek | killerrr, i think you'll get a more stable system by upgrading to 10.10, then 11.04, then 11.10 etc | 21:28 |
| aeon-ltd | cjc2010: no idea, check the dev's site, my experience with mutt is miniscule | 21:28 |
| brick | You think you could help me brontoeee | 21:28 |
| Chaos2358 | dougsko it says i must specify the filesystem type so i just add ntfs to the end of that command? | 21:29 |
| LordCrimson | i have damn cool film on that flash drive, and cannot get it watched the second day in a row | 21:29 |
| === saschal is now known as Moxon | ||
| dougsko | Chaos2358: nope | 21:29 |
| cjc2010 | aeon-ltd: reading the Ubuntu manual says "Mutt has mail-transport-agent as a dependency which means if you don't have a Mail Transport Agent installed on your system and you install Mutt an MTA will also be installed, Postfix being the default." | 21:29 |
| Chaos2358 | dougsko, ok how then | 21:29 |
| dougsko | Chaos2358: first thing to do is google the erroe ;) | 21:29 |
| killerrr | dancek: :( :( this is not good. now i don't trust to upgrade the system from releases to other one. and if i don't upgrade i have to install every program and every settings again... :( i don't wont to do this ever 6 months... | 21:29 |

| killerrr | dancek: anyway thank you! i have to leave now... | 21:31 |
| dancek | killerrr, seriously ubuntu offers the option to upgrade, you don't lose anything. you just have to wait for apt to download new packages and install them. why not do the recommended thing? | 21:31 |
| brontoeee | brick, no | 21:32 |
| killerrr | dancek: many users on forums faced problems when or after upgrade their ubuntu. | 21:32 |
| sympt0m | i thought /connect was a command... but it's not? | 21:32 |
| cjc2010 | to use mutt do I have to configure both mutt and an MTA? | 21:32 |
| blakkheim | LuisCarlos: it's better to learn iptables | 21:32 |
| brontoeee | ffmpeg you can use for transcoding | 21:32 |
| dougsko | Chaos2358: OK, well, what's happening is that the mount command is unable to automatically determine the filesystem type. so you need to specify it for it | 21:32 |
| sudobash_ | is there a way to pipe an exported $PASSWORD to a sudo login? Like: sudo login | $PASSWORD | 21:32 |
| dougsko | Chaos2358: check 'man mount' and specifically read the section explaining the '-t' or '--types' option | 21:33 |
| dancek | killerrr, and many people die in traffic daily. so do you stay inside? | 21:33 |

| MACscr | im getting the following error when trying to upgrade to 10.10: http://pastebin.com/XHpJKW0t. Whats odd is that i already uninstalled playonlinux, which is one of the errors. I dont see anything about it in my sources.list either | 21:34 |
| brontoeee | brick, if you are in US or ntsc coutry then : ffmpeg -i in.avi -y -target ntsc-dvd -sameq -aspect 16:9 out.mpg | 21:34 |
| LuisCarlos | blackkheim: I know iptables. I have my scripts, but looking at the software available, I saw many GUIs, so, maybe one is mature/recommended. | 21:34 |
| brontoeee | brick, could be an example, use smaller samples to test the workflow 1st thought | 21:34 |
| dancek | killerrr, ok so how many percent of users have problems after upgrading? 0.5%? | 21:35 |
| LuisCarlos | blakkheim: I know iptables. I have my scripts, but looking at the software available, I saw many GUIs, so, maybe one is mature/recommended. | 21:35 |
| killerrr | dancek: i just need a stable system which is upgrading with all applications inside.. but not releasing. i will use 10.04 and i will update the 4-5 softwares which i want to update non-stop... | 21:35 |

| linuxR | brontoeee, but rsync does only work over the network right? | 21:39 |
| dancek | killerrr, all upgrade problems are caused by some software. you'll be quite safe, but not completely | 21:39 |
| brontoeee | linuxR, at least thats what they told me | 21:39 |

| disappearedng_ | Hey how can I quickly test to capture video using my camera on my laptop | 21:42 |
| dougsko | Chaos2358: hehe. well, you just need to specify the type of file system youre mounting. so something like this should work for you: 'sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /path/to/folder' | 21:43 |
| aeon-ltd | stuart__: if your on ubuntu, yes | 21:43 |
| aeon-ltd | *you're | 21:43 |
| dougsko | Chaos2358: where, 'path/to/folder' is the path to the folder where you want to mount the drive | 21:43 |
| brick | have no idea how to use Wine. | 21:43 |
| mike1405 | :o | 21:44 |
| stuart__ | Yes I am. the problem I'm having is this: I have everything configured the way I believe it should be, but it seems like the only account that can actually access the shares remotely is my account, which is the owner of the folders | 21:44 |
| Chaos2358 | ok so lets say i want to mount to desktop. path/to/desktop | 21:44 |
| mike1405 | it's easy | 21:44 |
| seph321 | Aurvang: Have you looked at the "Properties" for the installed teamspeak client in Synaptic? It tells you where the installed files are. | 21:44 |
| stuart__ | I get the canonicalize failed error on the server, and the remote machines say "network path not found" | 21:44 |
| brick | mikau, | 21:44 |
| brick | mike1405, | 21:44 |
| mike1405 | tell me | 21:44 |
| brick | Do you mind if I PM you and you can tell me how to work Wine? If not, I understand. Not many people have a lot of time to do so. | 21:45 |
| Chaos2358 | dougsko ok so lets say i want to mount to desktop. path/to/desktop | 21:45 |
| mike1405 | ok | 21:45 |
| mike1405 | do you have it installed? | 21:45 |
| brick | yes | 21:45 |
| mike1405 | ver... | 21:45 |

| aeon-ltd | Eighteens: just wait for ubuntu to brand it, one it prevents hassle later e.g. cleaning up the files produced from compilation | 21:48 |
| seph321 | You don't have to compile Firefox to get the latest version. They provide binaries, they're simple to run alongside the distro package | 21:49 |

| ikonia | anygivenname: ok - so have you removed the ignore line ? | 21:52 |
| anygivenname | ikonia: which line ? | 21:52 |
| ikonia | anygivenname: the line that says ignore = 127.0.0.1 | 21:52 |
| brontoeee | linuxR, exactly, unless you add the delete option and made a mistake with your command line | 21:52 |
| ikonia | anygivenname: your on local host, so it will ignore it | 21:52 |
| anygivenname | ikonia: no | 21:52 |

| anygivenname | ikonia: someone helped me out so now log-ins are being logged into auth.log | 21:54 |
| slidinghorn | fuzzybunny69y, Applications > Accessories > Search for Files | 21:54 |
| erUSUL | fuzzybunny69y: do no do crtl + f; just type the search term | 21:54 |
| brontoeee | sympt0m, you can do: cd ~ to get to your home folder and then: pwd to echo that folder | 21:54 |
| anygivenname | ikonia: although it buffers sometimes & show the entries late but atleast it finally did | 21:54 |
| dw- | fuzzybunny69y: dont know but you can do "locate <file>" from prompt or find /* -name file\*\.txt hehe | 21:54 |
| seph321 | fuzzybunny69y: you can also use "Places->Search for Files" | 21:55 |
| anygivenname | ikonia: someone in linux did it | 21:55 |
| dougsko | Chaos2358: you can try mounting /dev/sdb, but i dont think thatll work. you might end up having to reformat | 21:55 |
| cristian_c | utilitytrack, what can I do to use latest SANE backends? Where do I find these backends? | 21:55 |
| brontoeee | sympt0m, actualy: echo ~ does the trick as well | 21:55 |

| Chaos2358 | dougsko i dont know why it suddenly showed up but i'm not complaining been trying for two days | 22:10 |
| chimi | can the permissions/owner of hard drive limit the amount of data i can transfer from another computer | 22:11 |
| kjr | any ideas? | 22:11 |

| dougsko | Chaos2358: yeah thats weird. dunno why it would do that either | 22:11 |
| k-rad | for NAS storage with windows computer and a ubuntu one what filesystem best suits that purpose ? ext4 or ntfs ? | 22:11 |
| wolfric | anyone know if it's possible to make tab on commandline cycle through options? | 22:11 |
| ikonia | k-rad: for windows ntfs, for linux ext4 | 22:12 |
| k-rad | ikonia, i wanted to split the hard drive with my father | 22:12 |
| wolfric | so if i did "cd <tab" and kept pressing it it'd just keep changing which directory is shown | 22:12 |
| ikonia | k-rad: neither then | 22:12 |
| ramiro | I have a box with static ip and auto eth0. The cable sucks so it unplugs/replugs from time to time, but ubuntu doesn't reconnect automatically. what can I do? | 22:12 |
| dw- | lol? | 22:12 |
| Chaos2358 | dougsko maybe the commands you gave me did something | 22:12 |
| Chaos2358 | i dunno | 22:12 |
| k-rad | ikonia, perhaps two seperate partitions ? though i wouldn't know how to allocate user accounts | 22:12 |
| utilitytrack | k-rad: FAT32 | 22:12 |
| sur | dw-, ?? | 22:13 |
| ikonia | k-rad: two partitions would work better | 22:13 |

| blahdeblah | Hi. What is the tool for reconfiguring Xorg? I've switched laptops and it has a different chipset. | 22:13 |
| Chaos2358 | dougsko yep i do have a final question | 22:13 |
| dougsko | Chaos2358: shoot | 22:14 |
| brick | Is it normal that theres a crap load of problems associated with WINE? | 22:14 |
| slidinghorn | !xorg | 22:14 |
| ubottu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 22:14 |
| Chaos2358 | dougsko "mounting" it is placeing the icon on the desktop correct? | 22:14 |
| blahdeblah | brick: yes | 22:14 |
| brick | screw wine | 22:14 |
| k-rad | blahdeblah, i've always booted into safe mode then choose reconfig xserver then default generic configuration, exit, exit, then boot normally | 22:14 |
| brick | I'm uninstalling now | 22:14 |
| badpenguin86 | i need help with sound. hp with beats audio. good speakers will not work | 22:14 |
| kjr | Where can I find documentation on how to recover from a failed ubuntu upgrade? | 22:14 |
| dw- | badpenguin86: maybe hp has a linux driver you need | 22:14 |
| dougsko | Chaos2358: the icon is just a gnome thing. but yeah basically | 22:14 |
| utilitytrack | blahdeblah: $ nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 22:15 |
| blahdeblah | k-rad: It prompts me to reconfigure, and once it has done it, it works, but on reboot it just asks again. | 22:15 |
| brick | how do I unninstall WIne? | 22:15 |
| blahdeblah | utilitytrack: If i knew what should go in there, i would have edited it already. | 22:15 |
| chimi | can i take a ufs drive from freenas and use it on ubuntu? | 22:15 |
| blahdeblah | brick: aptitude purge wine | 22:15 |
| badpenguin86 | dw-: Thanks, didn't think about that, will look | 22:15 |
| ikonia | chimi: ufs has read online support | 22:15 |
| dougsko | Chaos2358: if you put in a thumb drive, and youre just in a straight termial (no gnome) and you mount the drive to a folder, than youll be able to access the stuff on the drive from that folder | 22:15 |
| Chaos2358 | dougsko uh oh i spoke too soon i just got an error formating drive operation failed | 22:15 |
| xangua | brick: sudo apt-ger purge programname | 22:15 |
| blahdeblah | brick: although just because it has lots of problems doesn't mean it's not a useful tool... | 22:15 |
| dw- | badpenguin86: but hp doesnt make sound cards... you need the sound card driver | 22:15 |
| k-rad | blahdeblah, try a propietary or different open source driver will its functional | 22:15 |
| brick | It craps on convertXToDVD for me | 22:15 |
| brick | convertxtodvd didn't work | 22:16 |
| brick | and I don't think i'll try another one. | 22:16 |
| dougsko | Chaos2358: uh oh...sorry, someone else will hav to field this. i have to get outta the office ;P | 22:16 |
| Chaos2358 | dougsko and it has disappeared from disk utility | 22:16 |
| badpenguin86 | dw-, and there are no linux drivers on their site | 22:16 |
| blahdeblah | k-rad: I don't know the names of the drivers or anything like that. It has been years since i've edited xorg.conf. I thought there was a tool to do it now. | 22:16 |
| Elive_user52_en | does anyone know how to make a usb boot for ubuntu in linux? | 22:16 |
| dw- | badpenguin86: or maybe you have an unchecked speaker option in sound config already | 22:16 |
| Elive_user52_en | :p | 22:16 |
| blahdeblah | Elive_user52_en: The best tool i've found is unetbootin - just install it from package manager | 22:16 |
| dougsko | Chaos2358: i might be abround later, but i have to go now. sorry i couldnt help more. good luck though | 22:17 |
| Chaos2358 | dougsko it's ok thanks | 22:17 |

| LinuxGuy2009 | I know that Ubuntu is based on debian unstable, but is there a time when an Ubuntu release can be considered stable and everything works as it should? I ditched 10.04 cause I really need to be able to add repository DVDs and its broken in 10.04. Is Ubuntu ever considered stable? | 22:18 |
| ikonia | LinuxGuy2009: every release is stable | 22:18 |
| blahdeblah | k-rad: The rarity of my situation has no bearing on its difficulty. I've switched laptops; my old one used NVIDIA, my new one uses Intel - for some reason reconfiguring has not re-written xorg.conf | 22:18 |

| LinuxGuy2009 | I really need this feature to work. | 22:21 |

| mulambo | lirc sir is crashing on ubuntu 10.10 using mythubuntu | 22:22 |
| blahdeblah | LinuxGuy2009: which feature? | 22:22 |
| anygivenname | ikonia: seeing infinite number of allowed attempts....no ban time....no find time | 22:22 |
| ikonia | blahdeblah: xorg is dynamic and it will try to do it for you any way, delete xorg.conf | 22:22 |
| slidinghorn | Naznaz, you can switch between the two by using grub-install and burg-install -- once you get grub2 back up you can remove burg | 22:22 |
| ikonia | anygivenname: sudo iptables -L check it | 22:22 |
| brontoeee | andyzammy, enable php error reporting | 22:22 |

| willwork4foo | I have a random techie question for anyone who knows lots about Ubuntu. If I have an Ubuntu install on a partition at the END of a hard disk, and I want to relocate that to the BEGINNING of the disk (eg removing windows and keeping my Ubuntu install) - can I use disk mirroring to duplicate the Ubuntu partition at the beginning of the drive, mirror the OS onto the new partition, break the mirror and wipe the old Ubuntu pa | 22:28 |
| willwork4foo | rtition at the end? Or would it be simpler to use some sort of cpio / dd method to duplicate the data? | 22:28 |

| attila_lendvai | hi! are there people complaining that 10.10 slowed down something about ssd's? somehow rechecking torrents on a truecrypt encrypted ext4 on ssd became a whole lot slower with the hdd led flashing so slow that it's on about 25% intensity... | 22:39 |
| Acer_ | well, I just couldn't resist it :) | 22:39 |
| zaxonspox | j0nr there are standards A, B, G. N, you probably have B or G, but which? | 22:39 |
| guntbert | Acer_: lesson 1) don't run nautilus with root permissions .... | 22:40 |
| attila_lendvai | ...and I can't find anything on the net. | 22:40 |
| ikonia | Acer_: well, now you need to re-install, | 22:40 |
| ikonia | attila_lendvai: my ssd's work just fine | 22:40 |
| j0nr | zaxonspox: there are settings for 'g & b', 'g only' and 'Auto 108Mbps' | 22:41 |
| Chaos2358 | ikonia ok so just put a small partition on it? disc utility gives me the option to partition as master boot record, guid partition table, dont partition, or an apple partition map. or i could create a small partition manually. what would you reccomend for using the drive as backup storage only of music pics and videos? | 22:41 |
| Acer_ | and what would happen if I just copied the /usr folder from ubuntu install cd and overwrite the /usr folder on hdd? :) | 22:41 |
| j0nr | zaxonspox: currently set at 'g & b' | 22:41 |
| zaxonspox | j0nr try to set only B, mayby it will help | 22:41 |
| attila_lendvai | ikonia: it might be some hw config issue, because after the upgrade my hp 5310m became quite unstable. crashed about 10-20 times since my upgrade... | 22:41 |
| ikonia | Chaos2358: just use a dos partition table | 22:41 |
| zaxonspox | j0nr hmm no "only B", not too good | 22:41 |
| Chaos2358 | ikonia those options are available when formatting | 22:41 |
| j0nr | zaxonspox: can have 'g only'? | 22:41 |
| g-hennux | hi! | 22:41 |
| ikonia | attila_lendvai: it wouldn't work | 22:41 |
| ikonia | Chaos2358: make a partition, format it | 22:41 |
| g-hennux | i've just installed ubuntu 10.10 and connected an external monitor, but i cannot get multi-screen setup to work. image is just cloned, but neither xrandr nor the kde config tool tells me that there is an external monitor at all | 22:42 |
| zaxonspox | j0nr Try, but might be slow download speed, but try | 22:42 |
| g-hennux | hardware keys to switch the screen don't work | 22:42 |
| g-hennux | this is an "VIA Technologies, Inc. CN896/VN896/P4M900 [Chrome 9 HC] " | 22:43 |
| Chaos2358 | ikonia ok trying it that way thank you | 22:43 |
| chimi | ikonia: when copying files from another lan machine i get an error saying my hard drive(samba share) is full. stops at about 10gb in. thanks in advance | 22:43 |
| guntbert | Chaos2358: if you want to use some space of your disk it must be part of a partition and then have a file system | 22:43 |
| ikonia | chimi: clear some space down then | 22:43 |
| zaxonspox | g-hennux, do you have proprietary drivers for graphics card installed? | 22:43 |
| g-hennux | zaxonspox: no, openchrome | 22:43 |
| g-hennux | you think i should install the via drivers? | 22:43 |
| chimi | ikonia: is a freshly formated 1tb drive | 22:43 |
| chimi | ikonia: that is some serious overhead lol | 22:44 |
| Charbel | hi | 22:44 |
| zaxonspox | g-hennux, they might have panel to set up monitors, if no - set all in X.org file | 22:44 |
| ikonia | chimi: see what df thinks of it | 22:44 |
| Chaos2358 | guntbert so basically with this 250 gig i want to use for storage best thing to do would be create a 1 gig partition and then format the remaining 249 to fat?? | 22:44 |
| b0wter | hi, i'm just curious about the definitions, gnome-terminal, xterm, konsole,... and so on are terminal _emulators_ while what you get when pressing ctrl+alt+F<x> is a "real" terminal ? | 22:44 |
| Acer_ | ok, then I'll just reinstall it, thank you! | 22:44 |
| zaxonspox | b0wter, yes | 22:44 |
| g-hennux | zaxonspox: i'm wondering if this will work, as xrandr doesn't even list two monitors right now, but both are showing the same image | 22:45 |
| Chaos2358 | guntbert i already have a 60gb external i didnt have this problem with i erased and formatted with fat and it works fine as storage | 22:45 |
| b0wter | thanks :) | 22:45 |
| aeon-ltd | b0wter: yeah, they're referred to aas VTs (virtual terminals though) | 22:45 |
| chimi | ikonia: df? | 22:45 |
| ikonia | chimi: command to check space | 22:45 |
| guntbert | Chaos2358: no, create a 250 gig partition and format it to vfat (or so..) | 22:45 |
| Chaos2358 | guntbert ok cool | 22:45 |
| zaxonspox | g-hennux, what is set up in the "Display/Monitor" window? | 22:45 |
| guntbert | Chaos2358: you didn't remove the partition on that HD | 22:45 |
| Charbel | i installed call of duty 6 but it doesn't run with wine | 22:45 |
| ikonia | Charbel: wine has limitations, check out #winehq for support | 22:46 |
| Acer_ | just one more question... when I first installed it, I made three partitions: 1 for /, 1 for /usr and 1 for /home ... what should I do to keep my /home partition safe? thanks | 22:46 |
| zaxonspox | Charbel, did you installed latest DirectX? | 22:46 |
| ikonia | Acer_: be careful with it | 22:46 |
| g-hennux | zaxonspox: (this is kde) there is one screen shown with 1280x800 (although the actual resolution that is shown is much higher) and "identify screens" shows "default"on moth screens | 22:47 |
| zaxonspox | Acer_ not format it, just set up while installing again to /home | 22:47 |
| Charbel | zaxonspox, i don't think | 22:47 |
| Chaos2358 | guntbert ok may seem a little slow as i'm just learning a little slow but to clear it up the 60 gig was one big partition which is why i could format it. since the 250 had two 125gb partitions and i removed them i naow have to create a single 250 gb partition in order to use it am i correct? | 22:47 |
| gasull | Hi. How do I set up a SOCKS proxy on GNOME? | 22:47 |

| slidinghorn | gasull, ssh -R <portnumber>:localhost:<localport> <sshserver> | 22:48 |
| Acer_ | just mount /home again on it? or leave it without mounting, and then mount it after the installation? | 22:48 |
| gasull | slidinghorn: yes, but how do I get Pidgin and other Gnome programs to use it. | 22:48 |
| guntbert | Chaos2358: correct - all data must be on partitions that carry a file system | 22:48 |
| gasull | ? | 22:48 |
| zaxonspox | Acer_ mount it again, do NOT format | 22:48 |
| Acer_ | ok thanks | 22:48 |

| zaxonspox | Charbel, whats your card? do you have proprietary drivers? | 22:50 |
| gasull | slidinghorn, aeon-ltd: I go to System->Preferences->Network Proxy->Manual Proxy Configuration->Use the same proxy for all protocols, and set the proxy there. It doesn't work. The proxy is working for Firefox with Foxyproxy extension. | 22:50 |
| Charbel | zaxonspox, ati | 22:50 |
| Charbel | no i don't have proprietary drivers | 22:51 |
| gasull | sacristoco: did you download the CD? It's easier to install than Windows. | 22:51 |
| guntbert | sacristoco: give more details please | 22:51 |
| zaxonspox | Charbel, then at beginning i can tell you - you probably wont play | 22:51 |
| mrbdotse-hero | !ask | sacristoco | 22:51 |
| ubottu | sacristoco: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 22:51 |
| sacristoco | I downloaded the cd, and started with run without installing... | 22:51 |

| sacristoco | then I selected the icon to install | 22:51 |
| zaxonspox | Charbel, ATI cards are not for gaming at linux | 22:51 |

| ikonia | gasull: what's up | 22:52 |
| === slidinghorn is now known as zz_slidinghorn | ||
| zaxonspox | Charbel, 1st install ATI drivers for your card, then install DirectX in wine (or winetricks) then try to play, but as i said - you have ATI | 22:52 |
| Charbel | zaxonspox, when i bought my laptop in 2007 it cames with windows vista premium and i used to play call of duty 4 and it was working fine | 22:52 |

| ikonia | gasull: can you give me an example of what's failing ? | 22:54 |
| zaxonspox | Charbel, did you playd under Windows or Linux? | 22:54 |
| chimi | ikonia: so it seems it only affects the windows client | 22:54 |

| zaxonspox | Charbel, there is difference in ATI drivers for Windows and Linux - on Windows you can normally play - under Linux with ATI drivers you can have problems with even working | 22:55 |
| Charbel | how can i install ati driver for video card and where can i find it ? and how can i install directx ? | 22:55 |

| Chaos2358 | ikonia guntbert hey guys i tried the alternative of creating the 250gb partition and formatting to FAT but got the following error Error creating file system: helper exited with exit code 1: helper failed with: | 23:00 |
| Chaos2358 | mkfs.vfat: failed whilst writing FAT | 23:00 |
| ikonia | fat won't support 250GB | 23:00 |
| gasull | sacristoco: is there anything in your NTFS partition that you want to keep? | 23:00 |
| sacristoco | no... its empty | 23:00 |
| ikonia | (at least I don't think it will support that size) | 23:00 |
| guntbert | Chaos2358: I said vfat | 23:00 |
| gasull | sacristoco: delete that partition | 23:00 |
| Chaos2358 | guntbert ok i shall try that | 23:01 |
| sacristoco | gasull: ok... and now? | 23:01 |
| gasull | sacristoco, you have to delete the NTFS partition, then create a ext4 partition | 23:01 |
| sympt0m | zaxonspox, trying to compile a package before installing | 23:01 |
| DrPoO | how can i take pictures from my webcam using the command line? | 23:01 |
| sympt0m | $ ./configure | 23:02 |
| sacristoco | I create the ext4 with all the space available? | 23:02 |
| k-rad | do you happen to know if the non-bluetooth "receiver" usb mice sometimes work under ubuntu ? | 23:02 |
| gasull | sacristoco: actually no, try to install and Ubuntu should create the partition for you, I think | 23:02 |
| gasull | sacristoco: Ubuntu will also create a small partition for disk swapping | 23:02 |
| clao | hello.. i remeber having used a program to setup my keyboard, by entering a few caracters... i think it was upon installation... how do i run that program again? | 23:03 |

| e01 | when i start movie in totem pulseaudio uses 100% cpu | 23:03 |
| e01 | is it know problem, or is just on my system? | 23:03 |
| zaxonspox | clao istn the an option in System>>Preferences>>Keyboard? | 23:03 |
| sacristoco | gasull: it is still the same. I deleted the partition but I still cannot install it. It appears like before, but now all the space is unallocated | 23:04 |
| clao | zaxonspox, yep, but i cant match the keyboard model with the ones listed there. Its a wireless IR keyboard | 23:05 |

| DrPoO | is it possible to take a picture from my web cam using the command line??? | 23:06 |
| Jordan_U | sacristoco: You probably have a partition table that is invalid in some way. Parted, which the installer uses, will refuse to work with such partition tables. You can check with "sudo parted -l" which should give you an error message. | 23:07 |
| Guest97378 | <Fuhrer> DrPoO if so that would be epic | 23:07 |
| sacristoco | gasull> still the same... | 23:07 |
| ikonia | Guest97378: ? | 23:07 |
| DrPoO | i want to write a script to take pictures every other minute. | 23:08 |
| b0wter | sacristoco: doesnt the installer have the option to use the whole drive? | 23:08 |
| fgh | hm | 23:09 |
| sacristoco | b0wter: no... after the screen that checks the disk space and plugged in and connected to internet, it goes directly to the Allocate drive space screen. | 23:09 |
| fgh | what command to use to create dialog boxes? | 23:09 |
| ActionParsnip | fgh: zenity | 23:10 |
| sacristoco | Jordan_U: I am going to try that now | 23:10 |

| sacristoco | Jordan_U: sudo parted -l returned error: unrecognised disk label | 23:12 |
| Chaos2358 | ikonia guntbertok i now have a larger problem and i dont know what to do. after the error i posted a minute ago the drive has dissappeared from disk utility and is no longer there. i've tried moving to another usb port but nothing happens.what did i do??? | 23:12 |
| sacristoco | gasull: sudo fdisk /dev/sda returned a message saying that dos-compatible mode is deprecated... | 23:12 |
| ActionParsnip | Chaos2358: if you read the output of: dmesg | tail -n 20 it will give clues | 23:13 |
| zaxonspox | sacristoco, is there no label set for disk? | 23:13 |
| sacristoco | I dont know... this is my first time trying to install linux.. and not going so good... | 23:14 |
| Jordan_U | zaxonspox: label in this context is synonymous with "partition table". | 23:14 |
| fgh | thanks actionparsnip | 23:14 |
| zaxonspox | Jordan_U, like msdos or gpt, right? | 23:14 |
| Chaos2358 | ActionParsnip, it gives alot of codes and they all say "unable to enumerate USB device on port 1 | 23:14 |
| Jordan_U | zaxonspox: Yes. | 23:15 |
| sacristoco | Is there a fix for this? | 23:15 |
| zaxonspox | Jordan_U, thats how i understanded the "label" term ;] | 23:15 |
| gasull | sacristoco: yes, it should be. | 23:15 |
| gasull | sacristoco: I had a problem similar to this in the past. Don't despair. I'm thinking. | 23:15 |
| zaxonspox | sacristoco, can you run gparted in GUI? | 23:15 |
| sacristoco | yes | 23:16 |
| gasull | sacristoco: It seems Windows did something in the disk to prevent Linux from being installed. | 23:16 |
| sacristoco | I had windows 7 installed... | 23:16 |
| notgliscameria | s firefox supposed to hang miserably while it's installing pluging packets? | 23:16 |

| Maahes | I'm having a weird issue with x and compiz, so I ran the video tests, it passed all but the first one (do you see bars and static?), what does that mean exactly? | 23:18 |
| b0wter | gasull: i had some weird issiues with an sub drive as well that simple seemed to be gone and after a simple reboot it magically reappeared. | 23:18 |

| x0rs | Pandora rather | 23:19 |
| realeyes | anyone on 10.10 here? | 23:20 |
| Jordan_U | sacristoco: The solution to the problem is probably as simple as selecting Device > Create partition table in gparted, but it's odd that gparted is listing the partition without complaining but parted isn't (even though they use the same code). Could you pastebin the full output from "sudo parted -l"? | 23:20 |
| disappearedng_ | I am on sony vaio and there's a lot of problem with the nvidia drivers. I manage to get them working, but then ubunut now tells me that they need to be upgraded. Is there a way for me to just to a checkpoint or something and do updates, then if it fails I can just revert back using command line? | 23:20 |

| Jordan_U | sacristoco: Ok, the error about "unrecognized disk label" refers to the CDROM, which is not a problem. | 23:24 |
| gasull | sacristoco: did you try zeroing the hard drive as I explained above? | 23:25 |
| gasull | sacristoco: that's how I fixed a similar problem I had time ago | 23:25 |
| sacristoco | gasull: yes: dd: opening `/dev/sda': Permission denied | 23:25 |
| gasull | sacristoco: try this: sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1M | 23:25 |

| iceroot | sacristoco: that is killing your data | 23:26 |
| gasull | sacristoco: it will take a while | 23:27 |
| sacristoco | iceroot: I dont have data | 23:27 |
| iceroot | sacristoco: ok | 23:27 |
| gasull | iceroot: yes, I know. sacristoco told me his/her hard drive is empty | 23:27 |

| zaxonspox | vacho, if 777 no matter who, but i think web server or the parent directory owner | 23:35 |

| zaxonspox | MKUltraII, did you try to Unmute Mic for Cheese? or did You try Audacity? | 23:46 |
| edbian | seidos, Get the modules from the repos so you don't have to compile and install them first. Also, sometimes you have to restarted for it to take affect. List all modules currently loaded using lsmod | 23:46 |
| gasull | xcalibur: sorry, I can't help you | 23:46 |

| Spaztic_One | Hey, why is 32 bit recommended over 64 bit? | 23:47 |
| edbian | seidos, Essentially yes | 23:47 |
| Guest23508 | edbian, I've tried that, and I think --configure -a (on a recommendation by ubuntu in some other gui tool). I'm trying it again in synaptics and will post the error somewhere if ithere is one this time | 23:47 |
| MKUltraII | i read through the forum and went to sound preferences but when i have cheese running there's nothing that pops up about 'sound capture' | 23:47 |
| MKUltraII | im using 10.10 | 23:47 |

| Maahes | I keep having my touchpad driver keep losing sync which blanks out the screen and can cause xorg to crash, is there any way to fix this permanently? doing sudo modprobe psmouse works for a few minutes | 23:47 |
| seidos | edbian, so are all modules available in the repos for any hardware that has been previously supported by linux? | 23:47 |
| ZykoticK9 | Spaztic_One, 64bit can be more difficult to configure/setup (i use it) | 23:47 |
| edbian | seidos, As far as I know. | 23:47 |
| zaxonspox | MKUltraII, do it separetly from Cheese, mayby on other tab, or in recording prefs | 23:47 |
| Maahes | seidos, for x86 | 23:48 |
| seidos | edbian, can you give me an example of a module that can get pulled from the repos? | 23:48 |
| edbian | seidos, perhaps some really old things are not. But the point of the Ubuntu is to have easy access to all the modules you (as a normal user) might need. | 23:48 |
| MKUltraII | i dont understand what you're saying zaxon | 23:48 |
| zaxonspox | MKUltraII, go to sound prefs | 23:48 |
| MKUltraII | k | 23:48 |

| Jordan_U | Sean931: It depends on how well your hardware is supported (how stable the drivers are) and to a lesser extent what software you run. My main desktop has a current uptime of a little less than a month (with no hard lockups in the year and a half I've had it) , but my old intel mac locks up about once a week. | 23:52 |
| MKUltraII | holy crap | 23:52 |
| ZykoticK9 | vacho, "sudo adduser NAME" | 23:52 |

| MagusOTB | is it possible to change the resolution of GDM? after I enables the ATI driver, my desktop is fine and effects work and all, but the login screen is still 800x600, which is kind of annoying. | 23:55 |
| Jordan_U | MagusOTB: program | sort | 23:55 |
| jdawg | What's the best way to do a fast secure delete in Ubuntu on a 500gb drive? I'm trying the "wipe" command from the repository but even one pass looks like it would take more than 1 day. How about writing zeroes? Is that sufficient enough? | 23:55 |
| MagusOTB | maahes: pipe ut through sort? | 23:56 |
| m_fulder | hey | 23:56 |
| Maahes | pipe? I tried > | 23:56 |

| Maahes | I keep having my touchpad driver keep losing sync which blanks out the screen and can cause xorg to crash, is there any way to fix this permanently? doing sudo rmmod / modprobe psmouse works for a few minutes | 23:57 |
| MagusOTB | maahes: > is when you want the output to go to a file | 23:57 |
| pr0xy | Does anyone know if/when GNOME 3 will be available on Maverick Meerkat? | 23:57 |
| ZykoticK9 | Maahes, pipe sends one command to another - while > sends to a file | 23:57 |
| MagusOTB | so program > sort will put the output into a file called "sort" | 23:57 |
| jdawg | Edbian - how do i pm? I"m new to this chat | 23:57 |
| Maahes | oh, thanks :) | 23:57 |
