[00:00] <Elad> I recently noticed that my server had more processes running than normal so I did 'ps ax' and noticed that I have probably 100-150 pop3-login processes running... there are only like 20 users that have access to email on that box and only about 10 of those users use the email. How do I get rid of the processes? I did a 'killall -I pop3-login' but within ms they return, and show up as a 'new auth connection' in the syslog
[00:00] <pr0xy> Will Gnome 3 be available in Maverick Meerkat?
[00:01] <ron_> anyone have any idea when i dual monitor i can only mirror, not dual and i get lines when i do?
[00:01] <jacksonr_> Pr0xy install gnome shell

[00:02] <semperbob> @ron, does your video card require any proprietary drivers?
[00:03] <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.
[00:03] <gasull> sorry, typed that out of my readline
[00:03] <MagusOTB> pr9xy: I would assume it'll be in once it's stable, isn't it slated for release in april or something?
[00:03] <pr0xy> Gnome 3 should be out in april 2011, just in time for Natty Narwhal. I answered my own question :P
[00:03] <jacksonr_> gnome shell is going to be what gnome 3 will be. It can be installed through a ppa or git repository
[00:04] <SalahGo> Hi, anyone could help me on "make" command?
[00:04] <jacksonr_> try ./make
[00:04] <pr0xy> ok. Should I add KDE over my standard GNOME-ubuntu install, or start from scratch with Kubuntu?
[00:04] <Hrimfaxi> anyone know a sysinfo plugin for xchat? (similar to darkengine for mIRC)

[00:07] <pvl1> x0rs, yes extremely
[00:07] <x0rs> pvl1: do I just start script with !#/bin/bash and then follow that with my command?
[00:07] <x0rs> pvl1, sorry new to scripting

[00:10] <metap0d> Hi everyone, whenever I login to Ubuntu I am prompted to enter my password for 2 separate keyrings ... I'm completely new to Linux/Ubuntu and I'm not sure how to turn them offf
[00:10] <pr0xy> metap0d, are you admin?
[00:10] <pvl1> metap0d, do u want to turn off both passwords? they keyring will be a bit moer diffiult, is this a wireless laptop
[00:11] <goltoof> got this mouse issue where i can't click anything, comes back after a minute or two.  please halp!
[00:11] <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
[00:11] <pvl1> goltoof, look at ur logs
[00:11] <mbeierl> why is mp3 ripping so incredibly slow in rhythmbox/meerkat?
[00:11] <goltoof> Maahes, same boat, not same issue.  bamboo pad is bugging out my system
[00:11] <Olytibar> hi, I want to get information about a video file in the shell (eg length). How can I do so?
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> mbeierl: try a different app
[00:12] <metap0d> pr0xy: As far as I know I am the admin ... whenever I do anything that requires sudo I have the password
[00:12] <goltoof> pvl1, any one in specific?
[00:12] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip: which one?
[00:12] <metap0d> pvl1: I'd like to turn both off and no it's a wireless desktopp
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> Olytibar: try mencoder or mplayer (i believe they can show details)
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> !rip
[00:12] <stalker> i zero'd a drive then parted and formatted it with mkfs.ntfs, it was being reconized though, so i tried parting and formatting with a variety of windows disc utils, and now it locks up my linux and windows systems if i plug it in (its a external usb) any ideas????
[00:12] <MagusOTB> Olytibar: check out mplayer's options, I think it has one that does that.
[00:12] <pvl1> goltoof, syslog first, messages, kernel maybe
[00:12] <stalker> its wasnt being reconized***
[00:12] <ActionParsnip> mbeierl: soundjuicer looks ok
[00:12] <pvl1> metap0d, well you can enable an autologin if you like, that sonly for the first login screen
[00:13] <pr0xy> ok. what kind of computer do you have metap0d?
[00:13] <goltoof> pvl1, hmm.. guess it's about time to learn myself what logs do what
[00:13] <metap0d> pvl1: Oh I like being prompted for my user password when I login to Gnome  ... but it prompts me for 2 separate keyrings after I login and those are what i'd like to disable
[00:13] <ubuntu> because it says its mounted, but wont umount
[00:13] <metap0d> pr0xy: Just a standard desktop connected wirelessly
[00:13] <pvl1> goltoof, eh nto really, i just look at syslog msot of the time or search them all and take searh for what i need with keywords
[00:14] <pvl1> metap0d, oh ok so its the 2 keyrings you would like to disable
[00:14] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip: btw, it's not the encoding, it's the reading from the cd that's really slow...
[00:14] <utopia> hola a todos
[00:14] <pr0xy> metap0d, I need to help with dinner, pvll can help.
[00:14] <utopia> alguien para charlar
[00:14] <metap0d> pvl1: Yep .. I am 99% sure one of them is for my wireless connection ... the other one I have no idea.
[00:14] <goltoof> pvl1,  where is syslog?
[00:14] <ActionParsnip> mbeierl: then try using hdparm to enable dma if its disabled
[00:15] <rww> !es | utopia
[00:15] <SalahGo> anyone could tell me the make command of this git clone?
[00:15] <coraxx> metap0d: I can help you...cuz I now why ...and how to remove :-)
[00:15] <SalahGo> git clone git://anongit.compiz.org/compiz/plugins/atlantis
[00:15] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip: sorry - it's not the drive speed that's slow, it's the paranoia or something....
[00:15] <dw-> anyone on ubuntu have or don't have trouble browsing the AdSense control panel with FireFox?  all i get is a blank page
[00:15] <metap0d> pvl1: I managed to find a "Passwords and Encryption Keys" dialog but I don't want to edit/delete anything without being sure ... and I couldn't find an accurate google answer
[00:15] <pvl1> goltoof, /var/log         try something like cat /var/log/* | grep KEYWORD
[00:15] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip: used to be able to turn off all the skips protection/etc.
[00:15] <utopia> thanks
[00:15] <ActionParsnip> mbeierl: then use a lower paranoia setting
[00:15] <stalker> i zero'd a drive then parted and formatted it with mkfs.ntfs, it wasn't being reconized though, so i tried parting and formatting with a variety of windows disc utils, and now it locks up my linux and windows systems if i plug it in (its a external usb) any ideas????
[00:15] <metap0d> coraxx: Oh? Please share : )
[00:16] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip: that's the thing that I'm searching for.  don't know how to find it in rhythmbox or soundjuicer
[00:16] <coraxx> metap0d: you need to remove "Default" ... and _KEEP_ "login" ...after that, you have to right click on login, as choose it as the default.
[00:16] <pvl1> metap0d, Go to Applications -> Accessories -> Password and Encryption Keys
[00:17] <ActionParsnip> mbeierl: http://art.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1099289
[00:17] <coraxx> metap0d: restart ...and it should be fixed:  you might have to re-insert you wireless once more...but that should do it
[00:17] <semperbob> I'm having a weird problem -- rebooting doesn't seem to reset gdm properly
[00:17] <dw-> anyone on ubuntu with adsense ads running with probs under firefox in CP?
[00:17] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip: of course!  gconf-editor!  why didn't I think of that ;)
[00:17] <mbeierl> ActionParsnip: thanks!!
[00:17] <ActionParsnip> mbeierl: np bro
[00:17] <metap0d> coraxx: Ok I'll restart and give it a go
[00:18] <semperbob> like, any settings that I create don't take effect unless I use the service gdm restart command even after rebooting the system
[00:18] <metap0d> pvl1: Thanks I'm there I'll brb!
[00:18] <goltoof> any idea what bkl-orbiter, bkl-investigator  would be used for?
[00:18] <coraxx> metap0d: ok...see you it a bit then
[00:18] <goltoof> i know what it is, but what is it used for and how do i get rid of it?
[00:18] <goltoof> no man entries, or any info on how to remove bkl-orbiter/bkl-investigator
[00:18] <Sean931> i cant kill transmission, what should i do?
[00:19] <pvl1> goltoof, why do u think its anything to do with bkl
[00:19] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: run:  ps -ef | grep trans    you can kill the PID
[00:19] <iskin> In gconf>desktop>gnome>session>required_components_list, if I put gnome-do, and/or docky, will that cause it to reload if it closes?
[00:20] <goltoof> pvl1, separate question.. but bkl- got appeared on my system after installing wacom tablet drivers, which is when the mouse bug showed up
[00:20] <MagusOTB> goltoof: looks like it has something to do with watching the FS for changes. I just googled it.
[00:21] <Sean931> ActionParsnip: still doesnt kill
[00:21] <pvl1> goltoof, oh ok jw
[00:21] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: then use: kill -9 PID
[00:21] <goltoof> MagusOTB, not installed by default, i'd like to remove it but it might break something else
[00:21] <Sean931> ActionParsnip: i did
[00:21] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: is the process owned by your user?
[00:21] <goltoof> MagusOTB,  tried sudo apt-get remove bkl-orbiter ... can't figure out command to get rid of it
[00:21] <MagusOTB> goltoof: try dpkg -S bkl-orbiter
[00:22] <Sean931> ActionParsnip: how do i check?
[00:22] <MagusOTB> it'll tell you what package it belongs to
[00:22] <Reverend_Ruff> Sean931: you're entering the PID and not just typing "PID" after the kill command, are you?
[00:22] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: the output of the command will state the user on the left
[00:22] <T0aD> hi guys, im trying to upgrade a real old ubuntu server dist (6.10) and I encounter this error while trying to install libdevmapper: mkdir: cannot create directory `/dev/.static/dev/mapper': Read-only file system. Any suggestion welcome :)
[00:22] <Maahes> how can I explicitly set the Frequency Scaling Governors?
[00:22] <Sean931> yes im the user
[00:22] <Sean931> and yes im usid the PID
[00:23] <Reverend_Ruff> T0aD: are you upgrading to 10.10?
[00:23] <goltoof> MagusOTB,  yes, i see but what to do with this information? :)
[00:23] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: then -9 should definately kill it good, -9 is the biggest hammer
[00:23] <T0aD> Reverend_Ruff, heu from 6.10 to 7.04 in a first step :)
[00:23] <tortoise> Is there a script or something I could use to get ubuntu to have a "reminder" on the desktop?
[00:23] <MagusOTB> If you really want to get rid of it, apt-get removing the package that it says its a part of will get rid of it.
[00:23] <goltoof> tortoise, screenlets?
[00:23] <Sean931> ActionParsnip:  i've tried it doesn't kill it
[00:23] <MagusOTB> although I'm not sure what problems getting rid of it will solve, I'm kind of jumping in mid conversation
[00:24] <Gobi> hi guys :) How can I give one user to have all privileges over other users files?
[00:24] <metap0d> coraxx: Thanks a lot that did the trick : D
[00:24] <tortoise> goltoof: what is that?
[00:24] <Gobi> is there a tut for that
[00:24] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: try: sudo kill -9 transmission     ,should do it
[00:24] <coraxx> metap0d: yup, I thought so ;-)  you're welcome
[00:24] <Reverend_Ruff> Gobi: add them to the sudoers file.
[00:24] <MagusOTB> ActionParsnip: you mean killall?
[00:24] <ActionParsnip> MagusOTB: yeah, do'h
[00:25] <goltoof> MagusOTB,  i think it has to do with the wacom drivers i installed, which probably use it to keep it up to date?  all i know is it installed when i installed the drivers, i want to reinstall wacom anyway, so..
[00:25] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: MagusOTB: sudo killall -9 transmission
[00:25] <coraxx> metap0d: it usually occurs when you install Ubuntu ...and you choose to start up "live" first ...then connect to a wireless network...and then begin the installation.
[00:25] <[daemon]> eek
[00:25] <Gobi> Reverend_Ruff: Otherwise it would be ok, but I don't want to every time hit the password..
[00:25] <MagusOTB> goltoof: how did you install them?
[00:25] <goltoof> tortoise,  Applications > Accessories > Screenlets
[00:25] <tortoise> goltoof: nevermind I got it. But I was wondering if there was a way I could do it via terminal
[00:26] <Sean931> its still running
[00:26] <goltoof> tortoise,  i assume you're looking for some kind of sticky reminder app for your desktop.. screenlets has stuff like that
[00:26] <MagusOTB> Sean931: have you tried xkill?
[00:26] <Sean931> there is no window
[00:26] <Reverend_Ruff> Gobi: just enter them into the sudoer's file with "user ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL"
[00:27] <Gobi> Reverend_Ruff: Oh, thx. Ill try that out :)
[00:27] <x0rs> pvl1: thanks again, that works perfectly... rsync is amazing
[00:27] <MagusOTB> Sean931: oh. killall -s 9 transmission doesn't do it?
[00:27] <Sean931> nope
[00:27] <goltoof> MagusOTB, need to backtrack.. there are different ways people go about setting up wacoms
[00:27] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: can you give the output of: ps -ef | grep -i trans     use http://pastie.org   to give the output
[00:27] <Reverend_Ruff> Gobi: or you can just add them to group "wheel" and then just uncomment the appropriate wheel line (with or without passwd). Then you can just add/remove people from that group.
[00:27] <pvl1> x0rs, im not a fan of it
[00:28] <MagusOTB> goltoof: yeah, and I've never used one, so it just apt-get removing whatever you used to install them then apt-get autoremove not doing it?
[00:28] <x0rs> pvl1: really? for uploading files to my webserver it's instantaneous
[00:28] <pvl1> x0rs, unsecure, but i guess for that purpose it wouldnt matter, in most cases
[00:28] <MonthOLDpickle> where can I find a torrent of Ubuntu 10.10 UNR?
[00:29] <Sean931> http://pastie.org/1248774
[00:29] <x0rs> pvl1: yeah, I am just using it to sync my local files to my web-server for quick updates to my page
[00:29] <MonthOLDpickle> Everytime I download it from site and go to install it fails to install the Unity GUI
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> Reverend_Ruff: Gobi: By doing this you absolutely cripple the security in your OS
[00:29] <MagusOTB> pvl1: isn't it relatively easy to run it through a secure pipe?
[00:29] <metap0d> Is there a default shortcut for Ubuntu 10.10/Gnome to launch a terminal window?? I've tried googling this and all I find are methods to move between virtual consoles
[00:29] <metap0d> default keyboard shortcut*
[00:29] <ActionParsnip> metap0d: CTRL+ALT+T
[00:29] <MonthOLDpickle> please?
[00:29] <MonthOLDpickle> The downlaod si slow fromt he main site
[00:29] <pvl1> MagusOTB, with stunnel or with an encrypted port forward, or openvpn, there are a few ways
[00:29] <metap0d> ActionParsnip: Awesomee : )
[00:29] <goltoof> MagusOTB,  bkl-orbiter i think triggers bkl-investigator.. which occasionally eats up tons of cpu
[00:30] <pvl1> x0rs, hm, for that purpose yaehi can see it being wonderful
[00:30] <ActionParsnip> metap0d: or install guake or tilda (Gnome) or Yakuake (KDE) to get a quake like terminal drop down
[00:30] <goltoof> MagusOTB,  sudo apt-get remove works on neither
[00:30] <ActionParsnip> !download | MonthOLDpickle
[00:30] <Reverend_Ruff> ActionParsnip: He asked to give a user privileges over all other users - I took that to mean he was aware of the risks.
[00:30] <Reverend_Ruff> guake is really nice, in my opinion, but I usually just use CTRL+ALT+T as a terminal keyboard shortcut.
[00:30] <Sean931> ActionParsnip: http://pastie.org/1248774
[00:31] <MagusOTB> goltoof: yeah, you want to dpkg -S `which bkl-investigator`, it'll tell you what package its part of, then you can apt-get remove that.
[00:31] <MagusOTB> goltoof: but it's probably a better idea to remove whatever installed it as a dep and then apt-get autoremove.
[00:31] <goltoof> MagusOTB,  it also indexes thumbnails, just like ~/.thumbnails ... i really don't think need this extra service
[00:31] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: so I'm guessing you were running: kill -9 2387
[00:31] <Sean931> yes
[00:32] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: seems its not killable and you must kill the parent process
[00:32] <goltoof> libbickley-0.4-0: /usr/lib/bickley/bkl-investigator
[00:32] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: technically its already dead
[00:32] <MagusOTB> goltoof: regardless, most things don't like it when you rip dependencies out from under them. I'd suggest disabling whatever it does in whatever package installed it. I don't know how to display deptrees with apt, but I bet somebody in here does.
[00:33] <Sean931> ActionParsnip: what is the parent process?
[00:33] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: ps -ef | grep defunct | awk '{print "kill -9 ",$3}'     try that
[00:33] <MagusOTB> goltoof: so apt-get remove libbickley will get rid of it.
[00:33] <MagusOTB> goltoof: if that's what you want to do
[00:33] <Reverend_Ruff> ActionParsnip has no love for stubborn processes it would seem. = / lol
[00:34] <ActionParsnip> Reverend_Ruff: they suck, zombies getting in the way
[00:34] <Reverend_Ruff> You gotta shoot 'em in the head.
[00:34] <goltoof> MagusOTB,  sudo apt-get remove libbickley  does not compute
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/suse-novell-60/howto-kill-defunct-processes-574612/
[00:35] <Sean931> i getkill -9  1
[00:35] <Sean931> kill -9  5062
[00:35] <ActionParsnip> Sean931: shows how to find the parent, kill the parent and the zombie will die
[00:35] <MagusOTB> kill -9 1?? that's a bad idea...
[00:35] <Reverend_Ruff> lol
[00:35] <MagusOTB> I almost want to try it just to see what will happen.

[00:44] <acacios> Use the --without-x option if you really want this
[00:44] <FloodBot3> acacios: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:45] <ActionParsnip> m_fulder: yes, its a video chip
[00:45] <LjL> acacios: have you considered using the WINE that's in the repositories rather than compiling your own?
[00:45] <m_fulder> aha okey good ActionParsnip  ... but still what's causing this weird problem? :P
[00:45] <ActionParsnip> m_fulder: try setting a different refresh rate
[00:45] <acacios> Ljl,yeah,i have tride it .but this one is wine 1.3.5
[00:45] <m_fulder> higher or lower?
[00:46] <Maahes> question, I had fast-user-switcher kept crashing from gnome-panel, so I removed it, I went to add it back, and I only saw user-switcher, which is markedly different (for one, I don't have the ability to enter shutdown from it)
[00:46] <m_fulder> ActionParsnip,  its 60Hz default .. I've tried to set it to 75Hz but same thing happends
[00:46] <sympt0m> how can i find out where a package was installed to?
[00:46] <s0dium> can anyone tell me why when i have installed Ubuntu 10.10 my resolution looks slightly different?
[00:47] <ActionParsnip> s0dium: different driver, different Xorg version
[00:47] <IdleOne> s0dium: different default font
[00:47] <Reverend_Ruff> sympt0m: which <package>
[00:47] <m_fulder> ActionParsnip, also, maybe this doesn't matter, but Im running dual screen (HDMI and VGA output)
[00:47] <s0dium> ah thanks Idleone!
[00:47] <ActionParsnip> sympt0m: they dont get installed to a specific place, the files in the package get put in many places
[00:47] <s0dium> what was the default font before?
[00:47] <acacios> LJL,I have tride wine1.2,but now i am trying wine1.3.5
[00:47] <ActionParsnip> m_fulder: try with just the VGA connection
[00:47] <is_> I think I might've identified a minor issue, but I'm not entirely sure if it  consitutes a problem and I'm not sure where I'd report it if I were.
[00:47] <IdleOne> s0dium: don't remember, I like the new Ubuntu font :)
[00:47] <rww> s0dium: Deja Vu Sans
[00:48] <rww> s0dium: aka "Sans" on Ubuntu systems
[00:48] <IdleOne> ahh rww to the rescue
[00:48] <s0dium> is it easy to change back
[00:48] <sympt0m> like, i want to put the main file in a certain directory, so i can access it with terminal without navigating to different places for different programs
[00:48] <s0dium> cheers guys
[00:48] <s0dium> cheers
[00:48] <rww> s0dium: yes. System → Preferences → Appearance → Fonts
[00:48] <sympt0m> but i dont know where to find that file, so i can copy it
[00:48] <s0dium> thanks found it
[00:48] <sammy> anyone? has anyone heard of anything like this? an audio device auto-muting when the output is above a certain level?
[00:48] <ActionParsnip> s0dium: sure, just change the theme, right click desktop -> change background then click the leftmost tab then click customize
[00:48] <LjL> acacios: the PPA mentioned at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine has 1.3.5
[00:49] <sympt0m> i thought they all got installed to /usr/local/bin
[00:49] <sympt0m> but i cant find it in there
[00:49] <acacios> LjL,ok,thank you.
[00:49] <m_fulder> ActionParsnip, same error with only VGA in
[00:49] <maximi89> hhi guys, how can i load ubuntu toram, 10.04
[00:49] <maximi89> just "toram" should work?
[00:49] <ActionParsnip> sympt0m: the binary will be put in /usr/bin but other files will be placed in other places
[00:50] <ActionParsnip> maximi89: i wish it did :(  I submitted it on brainstorm
[00:50] <rachel___> can anyone help me with partioning
[00:50] <sammy> and because the mute toggle LOCKS the audio level (whose idea was that?) I have to stop the music to turn it down, because it doesn't stay unmuted long enough to let me turn the volume down.
[00:50] <is_> rachel__: Sure, what do you need?
[00:50] <s0dium> one more thing, could someone please tell me the command to register a nickname on irc please?
[00:51] <maximi89> ActionParsnip: so it should not work?
[00:51] <rww> ubottu: register | s0dium
[00:51] <bigmike> is this where the neebs hang out?
[00:51] <josephseraos> Hey, is still MySQL free?
[00:51] <ActionParsnip> maximi89: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/1503/
[00:51] <bigmike> *noobs
[00:51] <ActionParsnip> josephseraos: yes, its in the reops and is free
[00:51] <bigmike> cool
[00:51] <ActionParsnip> bigmike: this is the support channel
[00:52] <dw-> LjL: woot thats gonna fix my wine system tray problem thx :)
[00:52] <IdleOne> bigmike: Do you have a Ubuntu support releated question?
[00:52] <bigmike> cool
[00:52] <bigmike> not yet...but now I know where to ask
[00:52] <IdleOne> related*
[00:52] <dw-> add: ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa to repositories in synaptic !
[00:52] <sympt0m> still cant find it =/
[00:53] <Guest92946> hey, I used rm on all the folders in my home directory that started with a '.' (period) and restarted.  now all my bookmarks and themes and such are gone, I was wondering if I might have done any actual damage to my software?  The only thing noticeable besides my themes being back to default is that I no longer have color highlighting in the terminal.  all output is just white
[00:53] <nsahoo> hi guys. how do I install regular updates without supplying password?
[00:53] <bigmike> I am still getting use to my new 10.10.......just a week on linux.....
[00:53] <ActionParsnip> dw-: easier to run:  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade
[00:53] <nsahoo> if I am using update manager?
[00:53] <josephseraos> ActionParsnip, Sorry, I dont uniderstand "reops"
[00:53] <blakkheim> nsahoo: /etc/sudoers
[00:53] <ActionParsnip> josephseraos: those are the servers you get updates from
[00:53] <josephseraos> I'm not American
[00:53] <dw-> ActionParsnip: your e-p is much larger
[00:53] <ActionParsnip> josephseraos: me neither
[00:53] <himanshu> ok
[00:54] <rww> Guest92946: no, you haven't, though you probably want to do "cp /etc/skel/.* ~/" to get back the default .bashrc (the lack of which is why you don't have color highlighting)
[00:54] <ActionParsnip> dw-: -p?
[00:54] <Leon_Nardella> josephseraos, reops > repos > repositories
[00:54] <dw-> ActionParsnip: e-peen.. nm.. jokes. thx for the tip
[00:54] <s0dium> thanks for the help guys
[00:54] <nsahoo> blakkheim: I think I have it correctly setup, what should I look to do there?
[00:54] <gustavderdrache> my system takes anywhere from 5-20 minutes to boot, could someone help me inspect the boot charts?
[00:54] <SoulShadow|Lappy> 5-20 minutes??
[00:54] <josephseraos> Oh, yeah!
[00:54] <gustavderdrache> SoulShadow|Lappy: on a Core i7, no less
[00:55] <IdleOne> rww: don't all the . folders have a .old or .bak that he could cp?
[00:55] <SoulShadow|Lappy> my c2d 5 year old laptop boots in like..2 minutes, heh.
[00:55] <josephseraos> Leon_Nardella, ActionParsnip  But on MySQL's website I can't find it
[00:55] <ActionParsnip> gustavderdrache: run:   dmesg | less    observe the time on the left, when you get large gaps, those are the points of issue. I also suggest you test your RAM
[00:55] <bigmike> ok..when I have a serious issue...I'll be back
[00:55] <ActionParsnip> josephseraos: you don't have to, use software centre and it will be installed
[00:55] <gustavderdrache> ActionParsnip: i've got the output of bootchart if you want to see that
[00:55] <rootsashes> does deleting all the folders that start with a period (.) in your home folder actually do anything besides deleting settings that can just be re-set
[00:55] <ActionParsnip> dw-: how do you mean: e-p ?
[00:56] <rww> rootsashes: no
[00:56] <rootsashes> i deleted them all
[00:56] <rootsashes> and rebooted
[00:56] <Leon_Nardella> josephseraos, http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
[00:56] <rww> rootsashes: assuming you're not using some silly application that stores user data in dotfiles.
[00:56] <crimsun> rootsashes: it might depending if you have things like encrypted Private
[00:56] <ActionParsnip> gustavderdrache: as far as I know, dmesg is just a text based version of that
[00:56] <rootsashes> there was only one folder that it wouldn't let me delete and it said it was being used, but there was nothing inside of it
[00:56] <gustavderdrache> ActionParsnip: yeah, it's just tough to read 20 minutes' worth of boot log info sometimes :P
[00:57] <josephseraos> Yeah. Here I have it. But I want show for my friend
[00:57] <goltoof> any way to encrypt the entire hard drive without reinstalling Ubuntu?
[00:57] <dw-> it did fix my wine system tray. yayz
[00:57] <josephseraos> ActionParsnip,  Yeah. Here I have it. But I want show for my friend
[00:57] <rootsashes> thanks alot y'all
[00:57] <josephseraos> Leon_Nardella, ActionParsnip : Thanks
[00:58] <rootsashes> question:  Why do I no longer have color highlighting in the terminal?  all output is mono-color text
[00:58] <dw-> goltoof: whybother just encrypt home and swap
[00:58] <ActionParsnip> gustavderdrache: its not much text, you'll just have big gaps in the time
[00:58] <rww> rootsashes: because highlighting is set in the .bashrc file that's copied to the home directory of new users. which you deleted. hence me recommending you copy it back from /etc/skel/ earlier.
[00:58] <goltoof> rootsashes,   should be profile option
[00:58] <nsahoo> anyone?
[00:58] <josephseraos> I were looking it for
[00:58] <ActionParsnip> rootsashes: run:  gedit ~/.bashrc
[00:59] <gustavderdrache> ActionParsnip: "task modprobe:816 blocked for more than 120 seconds."
[00:59] <rootsashes> haha yeah.. maybe I shoulda not deleted that stuff
[00:59] <ActionParsnip> josephseraos: like I said, large gaps in the time (its in seconds) on the left colomn
[00:59] <goltoof> dw-, good call
[00:59] <zmbmartin> I just got a hp envy 17 and my number pad is not working any ideas?
[00:59] <ActionParsnip> rootsashes: find this line:    if [ -f /etc/bash_completion ] && ! shopt -oq posix; then
[00:59] <dw-> goltoof: your night will be more pleasant :p
[01:00] <josephseraos> ActionParsnip, ?
[01:00] <rww> ActionParsnip: .bashrc doesn't exist. he deleted it. hence me telling him to copy it back.
[01:00] <ActionParsnip> rootsashes: uncomment ALL of that if statement, save the new file, close gedit and run:   source ~/.bashrc
[01:00] <rww> nobody listens to rww :(
[01:00] <josephseraos> ActionParsnip, Great!
[01:00] <josephseraos> ActionParsnip, Thank you
[01:00] <ActionParsnip> josephseraos: when you find something causing an issue, you can search for guides relating
[01:00] <rootsashes> okay
[01:00] <rachel___> i got ubuntu installing but could someone msg me so i can ask some questions
[01:00] <ActionParsnip> rww: i see :)
[01:01] <rootsashes> aight i copied the file and now it works
[01:01] <ActionParsnip> rachel___: ask in the channel
[01:01] <FunkyDude> hello, i'm trying to copy the FlexSDK to the /opt folder, but that folder only has root permissions, how can I copy the folder there or change my access to it?
[01:01] <rootsashes> any other files that I should copy?  like .profile for instance
[01:01] <rww> rootsashes: I'd just copy everything in /etc/skel/, personally
[01:01] <zmbmartin> Also isn't the intel i7 q720 only a 4 core. Ubuntu system manager show 8 cores
[01:01] <josephseraos> ActionParsnip, I thought it was not more free
[01:01] <rootsashes> /etc/skel is like the skeleton for the home dir eh?
[01:02] <ActionParsnip> zmbmartin: you have hyperthreading so its effective 8 core afaik
[01:02] <rachel___> Actionparsnip i did the partiotions exactly as help screen said but i still have 90 gigs free I didn't want to erase entire drive
[01:02] <dw-> TF2 is going to suck through wine, isn't it?
[01:02] <flan_suse> rootsashes: Yeah, I think of it as a "new user template".

[01:04] <flan_suse> How come laptop-mode under Lucid will not change based on the AC/battery status? The service runs, and the settings are applied with no issues. But when I unplug the AC or plug it back in, laptop-mode doesn't toggle between enabled and disabled.

[01:13] <ActionParsnip> !wine | chris1967
[01:13] <furi> alright, i have the daemon up and running, but the mappings are NOT changing from the default.
[01:14] <seidos> !md5 > boysen
[01:14] <Alonski_> ubottu I didn't understand what actionparsnip wrote can you help me?
[01:14] <boysen> !md5 in my shell console?
[01:15] <Alonski_> hmm a bot
[01:15] <Alonski_> liar
[01:15] <Alonski_> ahh
[01:15] <_BEAST> oR
[01:15] <seidos> boysen, yeah, md5 filename, then compare the values with the md5 file on the web
[01:16] <m_fulder> btw how do I add a new resolution option with a new update rate? I've just tried:  xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1680x1050 -r 70
[01:16] <seidos> Alonski_, ubottu is really a bot.  he has factoids, you can private message him to see if you can find them.
[01:16] <rww> she **
[01:16] <boysen> if the values is the same then burn into cd?
[01:16] <seidos> boysen, indeed
[01:17] <Zero_Shakal> Hi peopples

[01:19] <seidos> !telnet | hayleyw boysen
[01:19] <_F-117> Needs Android BAD
[01:19] <dw-> ive got a weird repeating log line in ~/.xsession-errors  :: http://paste.ubuntu.com/519942/ any ideas?  I think it's causing kdenlive to crash when I browse folders...
[01:19] <seidos> !ot > _F-117
[01:20] <hayleyw> seidos, dont tell me.
[01:20] <boysen> what is telnet is not safe
[01:20] <_F-117> oR
[01:20] <seidos> boysen, it isn't encrypted.  but no one can force you to use ssh
[01:20] <ChogyDan> dw-: are you using 32bit pluggins on 64bit?
[01:20] <dw-> ChogyDan: could be
[01:21] <dw-> ChogyDan: not intentionally
[01:21] <boysen> can someone use my box if im install telnet server?
[01:21] <dw-> ChogyDan: just did .04 to .10 upgrade
[01:21] <LjL> boysen: more than likely.
[01:21] <Chell> After installing vim-gtk and mc, making sure i changed all the update-alternatives vi/vim/view, MC still defaults to vim instead of vimgtk. Does anyone else have this?
[01:22] <wmarone> is it possible to make the live-cd installer use 4K sectors instead of 512B sectors?
[01:22] <LjL> boysen: with telnet, your password (and everything) goes in *plaintext* on the internet, with no encryption at all.
[01:22] <boysen> can they get in without password in telnet
[01:22] <gartral> http://paste.ubuntu.com/519801/ can someone advise on this please? reinstalling ubuntu is not an option at this time
[01:22] <LjL> boysen: they can sniff the password
[01:22] <ChogyDan> dw-: it is weird that it looks like you have nsplugin source code installed to that folder or something
[01:22] <LjL> boysen: so, yes
[01:22] <HaPK_PerCar> ok, I'm trying to run second life in maverick, but seeing the errors in the terminal, the executable script doesn't has the required permissions... so how can I give it this permissions?
[01:22] <dw-> gardar: thats bad
[01:23] <ChogyDan> gartral: have you tried sudo apt-get clean?
[01:23] <dw-> gardar: do some backups
[01:23] <mack> i have a question when i installed wubi the first part installed but it didnt give me a boot screen any ideas?
[01:23] <boysen> i have a bot can i use ssh to communicate with my bot?
[01:23] <gartral> dw-: no cd rom drive, no external storage
[01:23] <conffrey> hi everybody
[01:23] <dw-> gardar: send it to ftp :) dreamhost.com or somethin
[01:24] <HaPK_PerCar> please people... help with this... I need second life running soon!
[01:24] <drebos> anyone have any info on if a wubi will be released for 10.10?
[01:24] <conffrey> I've 10.4 on my HP G62, all worked fine until one day ago, now PC doesn't start, I have a blank screen
[01:24] <HaPK_PerCar> ok, I'm trying to run second life in maverick, but seeing the errors in the terminal, the executable script doesn't has the required permissions... so how can I give it this permissions?
[01:24] <dw-> gardar: i only ever see i/o errors when drives are bad :S
[01:24] <gartral> ChogyDan: apt-get clean just returns me too prompt
[01:24] <ChogyDan> gartral: yes, but do you still have the error?
[01:24] <donm> drebos: it's on the disc image--just download and mount with daemontools or something
[01:24] <seidos> dw-, do you mean gartral?  i don't see a gardar talking
[01:25] <dw-> seidos: yep thx
[01:25] <ChogyDan> HaPK_PerCar: chmod +x script
[01:25] <drebos> oh really? silly me. thanks a bunch donm
[01:25] <boysen> i just finish downloading ubuntu 10.10 via bit torrent when i type !md5 in my console not found
[01:25] <sympt0m> what does "make" actually do?
[01:25] <gartral> dw-: i know this hdd is going, but i'm trying to get a faulty kernel out of my system
[01:25] <sympt0m> vs installing
[01:25] <donm> drebos: no, I was confused too
[01:25] <HaPK_PerCar> ChogyDan, it's already set as executable, I even tried to run it under sudo and it didn't work!
[01:25] <ritzt3ch> is there a way in the CLI to view excel files xls
[01:26] <Auv5> sympt0m, it runs the "makefile" with the default configuration
[01:26] <Auv5> A makefile is something that builds the application
[01:26] <ChogyDan> sympt0m: typically make compiles the program.  install puts the execs in your folder scructure
[01:26] <seidos> boysen, did you click the link that ubottu sent you?  it has a guide on how to do it.
[01:26] <boysen> how do i md5 test i actionparship?
[01:26] <dw-> gartral: if the kernel is on a bad part not sure you will be able to :s
[01:26] <_F-117> oR
[01:27] <seidos> ritzt3ch, that would be cool if there is...maybe there is a way to import the excel file into a mysql database.  only think i can think of.
[01:27] <dunny> ubuntu win shares r really playin up on me
[01:27] <seidos> _F-117, what are you saying?
[01:27] <acovrig> can someone help me mount a raid device?
[01:27] <seidos> *thing
[01:27] <ChogyDan> HaPK_PerCar: maybe you can pastebin the error msg
[01:27] <dunny> its like the connection to the network share just gets tired and stops and then starts working again, sometimes asking me for passwords
[01:27] <sympt0m> alright, so if i have two programs, both in seperate folders in my home folder, and i have "make"'d both of them, how would i go about installing them both so that the executable program of each are in the same folder?
[01:28] <HaPK_PerCar> !pastebin
[01:28] <sympt0m> sorry >.>
[01:28] <dw-> ChogyDan: I haven't rebooted since .04->.10, fwiw. maybe i can reinstall a package or something
[01:28] <gartral> dw-: no, the kernel is fine, but it lacks the module for moving bad data blocks, so now i have 122 bad sectors not being moved
[01:29] <Gumby`> hi all.  does anyone know if there is something wrong with the 10.10 torrent?  I've been sitting at 99.99% now for 30 mins when it only took 15 or so to get to that point.
[01:29] <dunny> neone know why my network shares stops and then starts working again, sometimes asking me for passwords
[01:29] <mack> actually i had that wrong..My computer installed installed ubuntu but didnt give me a choose os screen after reboot any ideas?
[01:29] <HaPK_PerCar> ChogyDan, http://paste.ubuntu.com/519946/
[01:30] <mack> installed-
[01:30] <boysen> md5?
[01:30] <xiven> Can someone please help me with why Wubi always gives an error at 99-100% that says it couldn't retrieve the installation files?
[01:30] <dw-> gartral: you sure that module is necessary?  cant just find some software? :) /ignorance
[01:30] <Sean93> what is the wine channel?
[01:31] <boysen> when i type !md5 in the console not found
[01:31] <furi> Sean93: i think it's #wine, but i think i'm wrong
[01:31] <gartral> dw-: quite sure; disk scans see the errors, but report something along the lines "Misaligned Headers, can't locate blahblahblah.ko"
[01:31] <seidos> boysen, did you click the link that ubottu sent you?
[01:31] <HaPK_PerCar> anyway, I'm downloading the updated version of the second life viewer
[01:31] <gartral> dw-: that's been happening since before the drive was going
[01:32] <xiven> I also notice that pyrun seems to have a big problem at start with error dialogs saying drive not available or something, it probably gives me 15-20 of them "right off the bat". I just keep clicking the mouse and the installer pops up shortly.
[01:32] <boysen> whatis cd5?
[01:32] <boysen> what is cd5
[01:32] <boysen> the program cd5 not installed
[01:33] <boysen> package cd5 from universe
[01:33] <wmarone> hmm
[01:33] <wedwo-> boysen, you're not paying attention- if you need help pay attention to seidos
[01:33] <xiven> cd5 sounds like a command-line utility for reading or writing a cd.
[01:33] <dw-> gartral: youre sort of like kramer in that seinfeld episode where he drives a demo car to E.. man buy a HD. that sucks
[01:33] <AnonJLH> Hey
[01:33] <AnonJLH> I have a question
[01:33] <AnonJLH> I need a different IRC client
[01:33] <EagleScreen_> I try to figure why 'update-grub' is not updating 'grub.cfg' file
[01:34] <ChogyDan> HaPK_PerCar: have you checked the permissions of the cited files?
[01:34] <boysen> sudo apt-get install cd5
[01:34] <AnonJLH> Im not really liking xchat or konversation that much
[01:34] <HaPK_PerCar> ChogyDan, no...
[01:34] <AnonJLH> Any suggestions?
[01:34] <seidos> AnonJLH, irssi, xchat?
[01:34] <ChogyDan> AnonJLH: pidgin
[01:34] <wmarone> is there a way to make ubiquity use a non-512B sector format?
[01:34] <HaPK_PerCar> ChogyDan, but anyway, that's an outdated version of the client
[01:34] <HaPK_PerCar> ChogyDan, got the recent one and it works fine
[01:35] <AnonJLH> I don't want a terminal-based IRC client either
[01:35] <HaPK_PerCar> ChogyDan, thanks anyway
[01:35] <dw-> gartral: wish i had more advice g/l i dont envy ya :p
[01:35] <ChogyDan> np
[01:35] <AnonJLH> It must be a GUI IRC client
[01:35] <UnholyTerror> any ubuntu one users here? trying to use rhythmbox and it loads fireefox to  login?
[01:35] <seidos> xiven, sudo apt-cache search cd5 says it's a checksum checker for tracks on a cd or something
[01:35] <gartral> dw-: that's not very high on my list of priorities.. food befer hardware
[01:35] <dw-> gartral: dont lose the vidso f your ex... ;)
[01:36] <Gumby`> AnonJLH: pidgin can do IRC, xchat is an IRC client, there are more
[01:36] <seidos> AnonJLH, xchat, empathy.  i haven't tried pidgin.  i prefer xchat.
[01:36] <AnonJLH> Can someone point me to a GUI IRC client for ubuntu?
[01:36] <ChogyDan> gartral: doesn't look easy: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/synaptic/+question/12093
[01:36] <ChogyDan> !pidgin > AnonJLH
[01:36] <AnonJLH> I don't like xchat
[01:36] <sakekasi> AnonJLH use empathy
[01:36] <Brown_Mouse> AnonJLH,Opera chat
[01:36] <furi> AnonJLH: i think XChat is what you're looking for
[01:36] <AnonJLH> I DON'T WANT XCHAT
[01:36] <furi> AnonJLH: but i haven't really used a lot of IRC clients
[01:36] <furi> AnonJLH: sorry.
[01:37] <seidos> !caps | AnonJLH
[01:37] <sakekasi> AnonJLH add an irc account to empathy chat.
[01:37] <Gumby`> AnonJLH: perhaps you should state what you do/dont want in your request
[01:37] <Out_Cold> weird question, but if i want to unpack an iso and add some stuff before burning, just mount the iso and burn a new data cd?
[01:37] <seidos> i actually thought empathy was pretty nice when i used maverick for a bit
[01:38] <Out_Cold> pidgin ftw
[01:38] <UnholyTerror> no, you have to chroot it first... then add your data
[01:38] <seidos> ftw ftf
[01:38] <AnonJLH> I don't want xchat, konversation, or empathy. I also don't want any browser-based clients or terminal-based client. I want a nice GUI IRC client...
[01:38] <UnholyTerror> ???
[01:38] <Gumby`> lol
[01:39] <blakkheim> AnonJLH: why not terminal-based? it's a text-only protocol..
[01:39] <xcalibur> hi there, can anyone tell me how to prevent php from sending mails from www-data@domain.com ?
[01:39] <AnonJLH> NO TERMINAL
[01:39] <Gumby`> xchat, empathy, pidgin are ALL GUI IRC clients
[01:39] <seidos> AnonJLH, mirc in wine?  :)
[01:39] <Out_Cold> UnholyTerror, for me? so mount then chroot?? even if it's just a cd?
[01:39] <Brown_Mouse> AnonJLH,Do you want jam on it too?
[01:39] <multipass> AnonJLH: Kvirc
[01:39] <Out_Cold> use finch it has an amazing gui
[01:39] <AnonJLH> WINE is giving me problems
[01:39] <blakkheim> AnonJLH: no need to use caps again, and you didn't answer the question
[01:39] <sakekasi> how do i change the default jre from openjdk to sun-java6-jdk? I have already installed sun-java6-jdk
[01:39] <wmarone> AnonJLH has some crazy terminal fear
[01:39] <Gumby`> mirc is a HORRID irc client
[01:39] <sakekasi> I second Gumpy
[01:40] <multipass> AnonJLH: kvirc is very good, check the screenshots
[01:40] <Out_Cold> mirc is irc as ubuntu is for linux... easy for beginners
[01:40] <UnholyTerror> google it... you have to enter the iso as a filesystem, make your changes, then burn.
[01:40] <Out_Cold> cool thanks UnholyTerror
[01:40] <wmarone> and like ubuntu it keeps you from stabbing your eyes out ;)
[01:40] <xcalibur> can someone tell me how to prevent php from sending from www-data@domain.com?
[01:40] <sakekasi> how do i change the default jre from openjdk to sun-java6-jdk? I have already installed sun-java6-jdk
[01:40] <multipass> anytthing that keeps u from stabbign eyes out is pretty coo
[01:40] <blakkheim> !repeat | sakekasi xcalibur
[01:40] <furi> ew... the empathy client is kinda weird on irc...
[01:40] <UnholyTerror> you can run updates and everything as if the iso is your current filesystem.
[01:41] <furi> xchat is so different
[01:41] <AnonJLH> I saw... Empathy is a "no"
[01:41] <xiven> I wouldn't call pidgin much of an IRC client, it's not much more then a window with the three essential text areas.
[01:41] <AnonJLH> Checking pidgin
[01:41] <UnholyTerror> AnonJLH, what is the problem?
[01:41] <multipass> http://www.kvirc.net/
[01:41] <Out_Cold> pidgin's irc is the same as empathy
[01:41] <Out_Cold> nothing to look at
[01:42] <xiven> Probably because Empathy is based on Pidgin
[01:42] <AnonJLH> Nevermibd then
[01:42] <Gumby`> AnonJLH: what are your requirements for your IRC client besides GUI?
[01:42] <AnonJLH> No to pidgin as well
[01:42] <seidos> AnonJLH, there's a list of irc clients here:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat
[01:42] <rudy__> i'm noticing that when I remove a program through the ubuntu software center, it is leaving behind litter in places like /etc.. is there a way I can remove software that does not leave behind all this annoying litter!!
[01:42] <furi> AnonJLH: picky picky picky
[01:42] <AnonJLH> I don't want xchat, konversation, or empathy. I also don't want any browser-based clients or terminal-based client. I want a nice GUI IRC client... Also, no pidgin
[01:42] <blakkheim> rudy__: aptitude purge pkgname
[01:42] <muaddib_> has anyone ever experience DNS lookup via IPv6 even with ipv6 is configured on your machine
[01:42] <rudy__> for example i removed ardour2 but ardour  -related folders are still found randomly everwhere
[01:42] <ChogyDan> AnonJLH: why not pidgin?
[01:43] <xiven> I wouldn't mind the ability to skin or theme pidgin aside of the gtk/gnome theming system.
[01:43] <she_dyed> AnonJLH: theres alwasy flash =)
[01:43] <blakkheim> AnonJLH: many suggestions have been made already, i think you're too picky
[01:43] <rudy__> how dO i find out the package name
[01:43] <Gumby`> AnonJLH: you've been given multiple GUI clients.  what do you need in your client that the ones posted do not have?
[01:43] <UnholyTerror> Out_Cold, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[01:43] <AnonJLH> Im basing it off of what others have said
[01:43] <seidos> AnonJLH, just check out that list for yourself.  you can install the packages and see which one you like
[01:43] <dominicdinada> so 10.10 is all messed up ? Noticed that when i edit network files it zeros them out it will let me read them no problem but when i hit save it zeros out the file. and the ~ backup
[01:43] <AnonJLH> Everyone seems to be complaining about the ones given
[01:43] <xiven> AnonJLH: You might give HydraIRC a try, I believe it runs on Linux. It's much better then pidgin's bare effort.
[01:43] <Out_Cold> thanks UnholyTerror was just looking for that
[01:43] <rudy__> thanks
[01:44] <Gumby`> AnonJLH: ah, well you best try them out yourself.  its only a few clicks or command like words away
[01:44] <AnonJLH> Linux or ubuntu? There are core differences
[01:44] <Gumby`> lots of ppl hate Ubunut too.  yet, you are here
[01:44] <Gumby`> Ubuntu
[01:44] <AnonJLH> Lol
[01:44] <AnonJLH> Okay
[01:44] <Out_Cold> ahhh UnholyTerror but this is for a live cd... i wonder if i'm not loading a live environment if it follows the same standards
[01:44] <Gumby`> try em out, see what suits you
[01:44] <Brown_Mouse> AnonJLH,weechat is cool :D
[01:45] <AnonJLH> I've checked out weechat
[01:45] <AnonJLH> Almost what in looking for
[01:45] <UnholyTerror> ???
[01:45] <Gumby`> isnt weechat command line?
[01:45] <she_dyed> +1 weechat
[01:46] <AnonJLH> Dammit
[01:46] <blakkheim> spams "no terminal" in all caps and then says weechat is almost what he wants
[01:46] <Brown_Mouse> yep
[01:46] <blakkheim> lol
[01:46] <UnholyTerror> Out_Cold, what?
[01:46] <Gumby`> AnonJLH: dont phear the command line
[01:46] <Gumby`> embrace it
[01:46] <Gumby`> it is your frned
[01:46] <Gumby`> friend
[01:46] <rudy__> this is driving me insane.. i need to delete like 3/4's of these files because I straight don't use the software!!  @_@
[01:46] <rudy__> and there is so much litter!
[01:47] <rudy__> my bad
[01:47] <blakkheim> rudy__: welcome to ubuntu
[01:47] <rudy__> rofl
[01:47] <seidos> !ot > rudy__
[01:47] <AnonJLH> what if terminal gives me a virus?
[01:47] <dominicdinada> !ot | Gumby`
[01:47]  * Gumby` thinks AnonJLH might just be a troll
[01:47] <blakkheim> ^
[01:47]  * furi thinks Gumby` is true
[01:47] <UnholyTerror> Out_Cold, I don't really think it matters if it's a livecd or not. A filesystem is a filesystem.
[01:47] <AnonJLH> What?
[01:48] <AnonJLH> Couldn't terminal fuck up my system?
[01:48] <furi> weechat sounds cool; can i get a link, or should i just get off my lazy butt and google it?
[01:48] <blakkheim> furi: sudo aptitude install weechat
[01:48] <seidos> !language > AnonJLH
[01:48] <symetrik> AnonJLH isn't actually a troll, just a stupid. :)
[01:48] <Seeker`> !language | AnonJLH
[01:48] <furi> blakkheim: thank you
[01:48] <dominicdinada> !ot > furi
[01:48] <rudy__> why must programs leave behind their files after they've been removed?  they did this in windows too.  i'd un-install a program, and then have to go through the HDD removing the left-behind crap
[01:48] <blakkheim> furi: i've heard good things about it but i prefer irssi (both are similar)
[01:48] <dominicdinada> rudy__: bleach bit it ?
[01:49] <seidos> !terminal > AnonJLH
[01:49] <dominicdinada> rudy__: purge it
[01:49] <iflema> rudy__ in a terminal          apt-get remove --purge <packagename>
[01:49] <Out_Cold> furi, nearly every app we discuss in here is available from apt or aptitude or synaptic.... all the same place
[01:49] <UnholyTerror> on the off chance you reinstall... your settings are still there.
[01:49] <rudy__> thanks alot yall
[01:49] <xangua> rudy__: someone already told you how to purge; and if you are refering about configuration files in your home you will need to manualy search them and delete them
[01:49] <furi> blakkheim: i believe i've tried irssi, but i think i remember it not really being anything of my interest; the lack of mouse control gets to me a little, because it's all controlled via keyboard commands
[01:49] <AnonJLH> Just a question... Do kids use this room?
[01:50] <dominicdinada> rudy__: this will wipe everything  dpkg -l | awk  '/^rc/{print $2}' | sudo xargs dpkg -P
[01:50] <blakkheim> furi: weechat is that way too
[01:50] <nematic> hi, appreciate your help with this - on booting 10.10 installation media (second disc i've tried), i get the following " (initramfs) mount: mounting /dev/loop0 on //filesystem.squashfs failed: input/output error .. can not mount /dev/loop0 (/cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs) on //filesystem.squashfs "
[01:50] <rudy__> xangua: yes, but I am also noticing left behind files in places like /etc
[01:50] <AnonJLH> What's with all you puddles who can't handle language?
[01:50] <Out_Cold> furi, that's irssi's best feature
[01:50] <seidos> !ot > AnonJLH
[01:50] <AnonJLH> STOP
[01:50] <seidos> !caps > AnonJLH
[01:50] <Gumby`> lol
[01:50] <blakkheim> rofl
[01:50] <HaPK_PerCar> hey people
[01:50] <furi> Out_Cold: well, idk... sorta got used to all of vista's stuff that never even lets you know about its cmd
[01:50] <blakkheim> i knew someone would do that
[01:50] <Seeker`> AnonJLH: Yes, kids do use the chatroom
[01:51] <Seeker`> seidos: stop that
[01:51] <dominicdinada> furi: offtopic discussion about clients is not a support topic
[01:51] <iflema> rudy__ or synaptic has a way to remove config files aswell "mark for complete removal"
[01:51] <furi> dominicdinada: my opologies
[01:51] <furi> dominicdinada: apologies* wow, can't spell
[01:51] <rudy__> dominicdinada:  does that wipe everything on the HDD or just left behind files from programs that have been removed?
[01:51] <frank__> anybody get toshiba laptop webcams to work?
[01:51] <AnonJLH> So... Does anyone have the IRC client I want?
[01:51] <dominicdinada> rudy__: it flushes all programs removed and there orphans
[01:52] <j_> hey all
[01:52] <dominicdinada> rudy__: no it doesnt wipe the drive
[01:52] <UnholyTerror> AnonJLH, now you stop
[01:52] <AnonJLH> anyone?
[01:52] <dominicdinada> so 10.10 is all messed up ? Noticed that when i edit network files it zeros them out it will let me read them no problem but when i hit save it zeros out the file. and the ~ backup
[01:52] <furi> blakkheim: one last question: how do i start it up? weechat isn't a command, apparently
[01:52] <iflema> AnonJLH what do you want it to do?
[01:52] <blakkheim> furi: i'm not familiar with it, i use irssi
[01:52] <rudy__> dominicdinada should I use sudo to run that command as root?
[01:52] <AnonJLH> Is 10.10 a version of the client?
[01:52] <dominicdinada> rudy__: i do :/
[01:52] <furi> blakkheim: alright. i'll just give irssi another go.
[01:53] <furi> blakkheim: it'd be useful to have a notification area icon, however
[01:53] <HaPK_PerCar> I'm trying to install the driver for my Ethernet chipset from the driver's source, but I can't follow the instructions correctly... something about not having configured the main linux headers and a missing autoconf.h... I'm on maverick, ethernet is an atheros AR8152
[01:53] <furi> blakkheim: and notifications
[01:53] <rudy__> alright y'all thanks again
[01:53] <dominicdinada> sigh 10 10 busted google chrome and all network files had 3 open with 1000 - 4000 lines of code and bam it zeroed them
[01:53] <blakkheim> furi: maybe a gui client would suite you better. notifications and all that stuff isn't really what irssi/weechat is for
[01:53] <sympt0m> super noob question. what type are files that have an icon that looks like a diamond with gears? are they .bin? and how do i install them?
[01:53] <AnonJLH> I don't want xchat, konversation, or empathy. I also don't want any browser-based clients or terminal-based client. I want a nice GUI IRC client...
[01:53] <dominicdinada> !ot > blakkheim
[01:53] <furi> blakkheim: alrighty then; i'll stick with xchat.
[01:53] <blakkheim> furi: they're great when you just have ssh shell access to a machine and you can run them with screen
[01:53] <nematic> any ideas? no idea if this squashfs filesystem mount fail is common but i've managed to install previous distros with this disc drive before
[01:53] <Seeker`> AnonJLH: I think thats pretty much all of them.
[01:53] <blakkheim> dominicdinada: i have PMs on ignore :)
[01:54] <AnonJLH> All of what?
[01:54] <UnholyTerror> so what's wrong with xchat?!
[01:54] <Seeker`> AnonJLH: the major clients
[01:54] <AnonJLH> I didn't see the list you posted, sorry?
[01:54] <she_dyed> color palette on xchat is daft, for one thing
[01:54] <Seeker`> AnonJLH: the list you posted that you don't want to use
[01:54] <xangua> AnonJLH: then open the software center and look for some client you like
[01:55] <j_>  4 machines running ubuntu in my lan and none of them can see each other or connect to the other machines running windows. I dont care about the windows part for now but how do i allow the linux machines to show on the network?
[01:55] <xangua> !irc | AnonJLH
[01:55] <AnonJLH> Where is the center at? Is it in My Documents somewhere?
[01:55] <seidos> Seeker`, did you mean part from this channel?
[01:55] <Seeker`> seidos: no
[01:55] <dominicdinada> sigh 10 10 busted google chrome and all network files had 3 open with 1000 - 4000 lines of code and bam it zeroed them
[01:55] <dominicdinada> sigh 10 10 busted google chrome and all network files had 3 open with 1000 - 4000 lines of code and bam it zeroed them
[01:55] <furi> blakkheim: oh, wonderful, irrsi looks GREAT in one of the full-screen terminals
[01:55] <dominicdinada> so 10.10 is all messed up ? Noticed that when i edit network files it zeros them out it will let me read them no problem but when i hit save it zeros out the file. and the ~ backup
[01:55] <dominicdinada> opps
[01:55] <FloodBot3> dominicdinada: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:56] <blakkheim> furi: yeah, i really love irssi, probably won't ever use anything else
[01:56] <xangua> AnonJLH: aplications>software center
[01:56] <dominicdinada> !ot | blakkheim
[01:56] <gartral_> also, in on a very patchy 3g connection, how do i poke around to restart a stalled download?
[01:56] <seidos> dominicdinada, i'm sure it's working for some people, so i don't know if i'd say it's "messed up"
[01:56] <frank__> has anyone been able to get toshiba's builtin webcam to work?

[01:56] <AnonJLH> I think I deleted my Applications directory... Whoops
[01:56] <imperfect-> Anyone here having issues with vmwaer workstation being a hooker due to kernel source issues in 10.10?
[01:56] <blakkheim> furi: if you ssh into remote systems a lot it would be good to learn about gnu screen - goes great with irssi/weechat
[01:56] <seidos> frank__, i have a u305-s7448 satellite, and it works in cheese...audio isn't presently working though for some reason from built in mic in cheese, but it works in sound recorder
[01:57] <furi> blakkheim: is there a way to create an application launcher that brings me to one of the terminals?
[01:57] <furi> blakkheim: gnu screen?
[01:57] <frank__> seidos, cheese?
[01:57] <imperfect-> Also: ever since I've done dist-upgrade my drives appear to be changing designation
[01:57] <imperfect-> like right now they're /dev/sda
[01:57] <blakkheim> furi: yeah, you can add an item that opens xterm or whatever terminal you use and executes irssi
[01:57] <seidos> frank__, sudo apt-get install cheese i think.  it's a webcam software
[01:57] <imperfect-> but on bootup they think they're /dev/dc
[01:57] <blakkheim> !info screen | furi
[01:57] <imperfect-> er dsc
[01:58] <furi> blakkheim: well, i'd actually like to bring myself to a fallback terminal, which i already have irssi on. or is that a good idea?
[01:58] <seidos> !info cheese | frank__
[01:58] <frank__> downloading it now
[01:58] <AnonJLH> FUCK ALL OF YOU NERDS. CANT EVEN FUCKING ANSWER MY GODDAMN QUESTIONS BECAUSE YOU ALL ARE SO FUCKING BUSY DOING YOUR OWN DAMN SHIT TO CARE FOR SOME TINY ASS-WIPE LIKE ME
[01:58] <blakkheim> furi: screen would be great for that
[01:58] <blakkheim> !ops
[01:58] <dominicdinada> seidos: loosing all of google chrome, tried purging reinstalling nothing, tried software center versions nothing, lost 3 weeks work in 10 mins
[01:58] <sympt0m> super noob question. what type are files that have an icon that looks like a diamond with gears? are they .bin? and how do i install them?
[01:59] <blakkheim> sympt0m: what is the file extension?
[01:59] <dominicdinada> blakkheim: while your at it you have been one of 5 people flooding the channel with offtopic discussions on irc clients
[01:59] <sympt0m> i'm not sure, that's the problem. it just says the file name
[01:59] <sympt0m> and i dont know how to make the file extensions show like i have on my windows machine
[01:59] <nematic> installation media //filesystem.squashfs mount fail...anyone?
[01:59] <blakkheim> sympt0m: run "file /path/to/file" in a terminal to see what kind it is
[01:59] <wmarone> man wtf
[01:59] <blakkheim> sympt0m: it's probably a binary or a bash script
[01:59] <seidos> dominicdinada, sorry to hear that.  so you tried chromium too?  no luck?  i don't know what you mean by "losing" won't run?
[02:00] <wmarone> why can parted read my disk normally, but the installer can't?
[02:00] <she_dyed> because parted reads from someplace else
[02:01] <sympt0m> elf 32bit executable
[02:01] <blakkheim> sympt0m: then it's just a binary
[02:01] <sympt0m> how do i install that file?
[02:01] <imperfect-> http://pastebin.ca/index.php
[02:01] <furi> blakkheim: screen?
[02:01] <blakkheim> sympt0m: depends on what it is
[02:01] <furi> blakkheim: sorry, i'm really unfamiliar
[02:01] <blakkheim> furi: yeah what about it?
[02:01] <imperfect-> Can someone take a look at that and tell me what I can do to clean it up so I can get vmware to like me again?
[02:01] <dominicdinada> no editing network files via kate... zeroed out the file and backups, hit save tried opening the file in firefox then noticed it was blank... reopened the file in kate/ blank ctrl h'd for hidden all 0 bytes
[02:01] <sympt0m> got it from a .tar, "make"'d it, now what
[02:02] <dominicdinada> seidos: no editing network files via kate... zeroed out the file and backups, hit save tried opening the file in firefox then noticed it was blank... reopened the file in kate/ blank ctrl h'd for hidden all 0 bytes
[02:02] <furi> sympt0m: the process is usually "sudo su" then "./configure" then "make" then "make install" after extracting the tar
[02:03] <sympt0m> so what can i do now? or do i have to redo the whole process?
[02:03] <blakkheim> furi: basically you run screen and it looks like a regular terminal. you can run irssi in that and then detach from it and it's still running, then you can reconnect to it later
[02:03] <Guest32832> Hi, just upgraded to meerkat. now my bottom panel bar is empty except for the recycle bin icon at the far right. i can't see my open programs on the panel, nor do i have my multiple desktop widget. Google search was fruitless. Suggestions?
[02:03] <dominicdinada> seidos: tried chromium from the software center boots up and closes just as the google download
[02:03] <Bossmanbeta> ...is it possible to create an LVM over two USB hard disks, mounted in fstab manually (not auto-detected), drives that are always connected?
[02:03] <seidos> dominicdinada, don't get it.  i'll bow out now, hopefully someone else understands.
[02:03] <furi> blakkheim: yes, i know, but i'd like an applet that, when i click it, it goes to a pre-specified screen, like, an alternative to ctrl+alt+F3
[02:03] <wmarone> no, I've got it now
[02:03] <Sean93> what is a good free download manager for google chrome on ubuntu?
[02:04] <dominicdinada> open up a file and type Hello World.... hit save... file is 0 bytes lol
[02:04] <xangua> !panels | freebased
[02:04] <wmarone> the installer and gparted aren't reading the device sector size, so they do the math wrong :(
[02:04] <dominicdinada> Fail upgrade
[02:04] <blakkheim> furi: oh. hmm, you could make it open a terminal that reconnects to the screen session with "screen -r"
[02:04] <furi> blakkheim: and after -r, i put the number of the screen, right? or am i not getting this?
[02:04] <nematic> seriously can someone tell me why wubi just says 'permission denied' after extract, and alternatively burning installation media to disc gives me squashfs mount errors at boot? can't get any install method to work
[02:05] <blakkheim> furi: if you only have one screen session open, just -r will work, but if you have multiple then you need the session number which you can get from "screen -ls"
[02:05] <freebased> xangua, that fixed my bottom panel, but i lost my icons in the top panel :/
[02:05] <freebased> not too big of a deal for me to reconstruct
[02:05] <freebased> thanks for the help
[02:06] <Sean93> what is a good free download manager for google chrome on ubuntu?
[02:06] <furi> blakkheim: it returned "There is no screen to be resumed."
[02:06] <blakkheim> furi: you have to start one first :P
[02:06] <osmosis2> Sean93, google for chrome extensions maybe
[02:06] <furi> blakkheim: but i did, it's on ctrl+alt+f3
[02:06] <furi> blakkheim: and irssi is started up on it
[02:06] <blakkheim> furi: did you detach from it with ctrl+a+d
[02:07] <furi> blakkheim: no, actually
[02:07] <furi> blakkheim: i'll try that
[02:07] <kk9822> hi
[02:07] <Jazzi> hey
[02:07] <furi> blakkheim: ctrl+a+d does nothing
[02:07] <blakkheim> furi: you need to detach all of them for -r to work, or you can just use -x to join the same session
[02:07] <kk9822> i want toknow why this error comes when i run one softwareActive Server Pages error 'ASP 0126'
[02:07] <kk9822> Include file not found
[02:07] <kk9822> The include file '/angelconnection/connection.asp' was not found.
[02:08] <multipass> whats the first thing i should do if ubuntu wont run live or install on my computer? also i have ubuntu on a hard drive and it wont load--- It freezes during the startup of all 3 of these things
[02:08] <furi> blakkheim: i don't understand...
[02:09] <furi> blakkheim: sorry
[02:09] <blakkheim> furi: while you have screen open with irssi in your virtual console, open a terminal in your X session and run "screen -x"
[02:09] <furi> blakkheim: when i do that, it simply restarts that screen
[02:09] <blakkheim> furi: and it will take you to the same one
[02:10] <furi> blakkheim: now it's saying there's none to be attached
[02:10] <blakkheim> furi: does "screen -ls" list any?
[02:10] <furi> blakkheim: so, i go into a fallback terminal and press ctrl+a+d. it restarts that terminal and i log back in. then i press ctrl+alt+F7 to return to X. i then open a terminal and put down screen -x, which returns what i said.
[02:10] <furi> blakkheim: trying that
[02:10] <UnholyTerror> multipass, bad hardware
[02:11] <furi> blakkheim: No Sockets found in /var/run/screen/S-furi.
[02:11] <multipass> brand new up to date hardware, might be too new for ubuntu
[02:11] <blakkheim> furi: it looks like you don't have any screens open then
[02:11] <starn> Why wont Ubuntu wont let me make file trusted? I'm trying to use wine on a game.
[02:11] <furi> blakkheim: but...i have the F3 one open...
[02:12] <blakkheim> furi: it would be listed then, maybe you just ran irssi in a regular console by accident

[02:12] <blakkheim> furi: ok, mind if i PM you?

[02:12] <SingAlong> I've had hell of a time with acer laptops (they use some obsolete wifi cards)
[02:12] <furi> blakkheim: let me get on xchat really fast

[02:22] <frank__> so guys, any other suggestions besides cheese for getting a toshiba webcam to work?
[02:22] <d3drocks> ok, well thanks for the help unholyterror, youve manged to solve part of my problem
[02:22] <starn> d3drocks i have it installed on external harddrive as well as windows.. i have never had this issue before..
[02:22] <she_dyed> frank__: oh you mean apps for webcam?

[02:23] <dominicdinada> !launchpad
[02:23] <Autonomiser> Wow, why does windows 7 run better in Virtualbox under Ubuntu then on it's own?
[02:23] <dominicdinada> Autonomiser: your computer is bad ?
[02:23] <starn> well i just updated to 10.10 from 9.10. and never had issues back than.. same windows install though
[02:23] <frank__> no. i need my toshiba webcam to work
[02:23] <she_dyed> Autonomiser: its running on a real OS
[02:23] <dominicdinada> win7 works flawlessly
[02:24] <UnholyTerror> d3drocks, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=700676

[02:24] <Autonomiser> she_dyed i hear you
[02:24] <Sean93> in "chmod a+x" what is the a for?
[02:24] <Charbel> ikonia,
[02:24] <dominicdinada> archive?
[02:24] <Charbel> fglrx is the name of the closed-source, proprietary driver from AMD/ATI. It conflicts with the open-source "radeon" driver. If the "fglrx" kernel module is loaded at boot, X will be able to start using the "radeon" driver but "Direct Rendering" (DRI) will be disabled. This results in a severe performance reduction. Use System->Administration->Hardware Drivers to make sure "ATI accelerated graphics driver" is not in use.
[02:24] <d3drocks> thanks again unholyterror
[02:24] <d3drocks> I will look at taht right now
[02:24] <judax> Sean93: "all"
[02:25] <UnholyTerror> I didn't look deep
[02:25] <Sean93> judax:  when should it be used?
[02:25] <starn> i am using 1.3 i believe of it is that latest? for aptget says it is..
[02:25] <she_dyed> frank__: was it detected, any indicator lights, does dmesg/lshw/lsusb show the  make and model
[02:25] <frank__> it's built in, so no lights
[02:26] <judax> Sean93: chmod a+x would set the executable bit for "all", where all=user, group and other

[02:26] <she_dyed> poW!
[02:27] <gustavderdrache> my system is taking between 5-20 minutes to boot
[02:27] <frank__> she_dyed, not seeing it in there.
[02:27] <gustavderdrache> i just finished testing both the RAM and my HDDs, and they both checkout okay
[02:27] <frank__> so i think i'm out of luck
[02:27] <UnholyTerror> gustavderdrache, drop windows!
[02:27] <d3drocks> starn: you might need to install it fresh into wine unfortunately. thats the only way ive ever gotten around problems like that
[02:28] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: lol, even windows boots faster
[02:28] <she_dyed> frank__: and there's no extra entry like /dev/vide0 and video1 (usually graphics card is the first)
[02:28] <UnholyTerror> drop antivirus
[02:28] <Mr_Crunchbang> starn: make sure you use pastebin to post multiple lines of text
[02:29] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: does 10.10 even install an antivirus by default?
[02:29] <MarathonDove> How do I partition my HDD with OS X?
[02:29] <Maahes_> does anyone have any experience with the fast user switcher breaking? It no longer works right, and I did a locate for applet and it's not even in there.
[02:29] <UnholyTerror> not to my knowledge.
[02:30] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, anti-virus is not necessary by default
[02:30] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: yeah, figured
[02:30] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: just trying to find the culprit for my boot times :)
[02:30] <UnholyTerror> what part of boot takes so long?
[02:30] <rammyIRC> how to download streaming media from URL from command line
[02:30] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: it varies
[02:30] <gustavderdrache> it was modprobe once, sometimes it's plymouth, ...
[02:31] <UnholyTerror> press alt f2 during boot
[02:31] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: wouldn't that just be the same information i can find in dmesg?
[02:31] <UnholyTerror> duh!:)
[02:32] <starn> why is it ubuntu won't let me set programs to be executable? everytime i click to allow it unchecks it self
[02:32] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: then i can read that info now and save about 20 minutes' worth of work :)
[02:32] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: I also installed bootchart, so i can share pictures if you want to see 'em
[02:32] <MarathonDove> I can't find Chatzilla in my list of applications. Halp?
[02:33] <rammyIRC> can i use wget
[02:33] <rammyIRC> ?
[02:33] <she_dyed> starn: i think its because its on the windows partition and they dont really save permissions like nix does
[02:33] <UnholyTerror> i don't kno what the problem would be
[02:33] <Sean93> should i install java in /usr/java or my home directory?
[02:33] <MonthOLDpickle> guys purge command ore remove?
[02:33] <MonthOLDpickle> or***
[02:33] <starn> but what about my external hd? it won't let me on there and i never had this issue before in the past..
[02:34] <d3drocks> aplay -l
[02:34] <d3drocks> aplay: device_list:223: no soundcards found...
[02:34] <d3drocks> agh, thats annoying
[02:34] <starn> how would i give my self full power to force these programs to run using wine?
[02:34] <UnholyTerror> try reinstalling alsa???
[02:35] <d3drocks> alright
[02:35] <UnholyTerror> look in synaptics to see what your system is using - reinstall those.
[02:36] <d3drocks> its alsa for sure
[02:36] <seidos> d3drocks, sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils force-reload or cat /proc/asound/cards?
[02:36] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, http://www.bootchart.org/
[02:36] <Maahes_> Anyone: Does devilspie work with Compiz?
[02:36] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: it's been installed for awhile, i've got a coupld of renders
[02:36] <gustavderdrache> *couple
[02:37] <seidos> and
[02:37]  * Maahes_ is at 8 days uptime on his laptop, w00t
[02:37] <frank__> she_dyed, sorry nothing
[02:38] <she_dyed> yeah frank__ at this point i'd google in other forums not just ubuntu to see if there is hope
[02:38] <d3drocks> seidos: already tried the force reload, and proc/asound/cards lists: chris@chris-desktop:/etc/init.d$ cat /proc/asound/cards

[02:40] <larry> hello all
[02:41] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: i put the most recent boot charts in my Dropbox, interested?
[02:41] <earthshade> Hello darkness my old friend
[02:41] <Omen_20> Hi. When installing some development environments you are told to add stuff to your Windows path! What is the equivalent in Linux? I need to be able to use commands from any directory.
[02:41] <Sean93> where is google chrome installed in ubbuntu?
[02:41] <Maahes_> sure :)
[02:41] <Dr_Willis> Omen_20:  echo $PATH
[02:42] <Dr_Willis> Omen_20:  export the PATH variable as needed/set it as needed.
[02:42] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: tarball or list of files?
[02:42] <rammyIRC> do u guyz how to download streaming media in linux
[02:42] <Maahes_> tarball is fine :)
[02:42] <Dr_Willis> rammyIRC:  depends on the stream.
[02:42] <earthshade> Still trying to find those drivers...
[02:42] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/570560/bootchart.tgz
[02:42] <UnholyTerror> d3drocks, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/232362
[02:44] <d3drocks> ok, instead of messing with this i think im gunna go to ubuntu 10.10
[02:44] <mack> how can i install adobe flash on a amd 64-bit
[02:44] <d3drocks> and work from there then
[02:45] <xangua> mack sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[02:45] <Dr_Willis> mack:  i normally install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package.  that pulls in flash and other things you proberly want.
[02:45] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, what's the stats of the machine?
[02:46] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: 2 1TB Seagates, Intel Core i7 975, an embarrassingly large volume of RAM, and an Nvidia GTX 295
[02:46] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: to summarize: "runs Crysis well"
[02:47] <mack> how do i do that dr_Willis
[02:47] <Omen_20> thanks Dr_Willis
[02:47] <Maahes_> ja rly, your boot time should not be 300+s, *looking around*
[02:47] <blakkheim> gustavderdrache: considered an SSD?
[02:47] <Dr_Willis> mack:  its in  the package manager tools.. or use the 'sudo apt-get install PACKAGENAME' type method.
[02:47] <gustavderdrache> blakkheim: I have, but my boot times used to be pretty awesome
[02:47] <starn> oh oh could my issue be due to fact of me not logging back into windows since i installed ubuntu?!
[02:47] <d3drocks> 0_o 65 kbps to the ubuntu repos. guess i'll check back in the morning
[02:48] <kion> I found that I can program rules to be added to UFW with the at command...
[02:48] <matts45acp> hello
[02:48] <kion> say... AT 16:00
[02:49] <kion> ufw allos ftp
[02:49] <kion> it works
[02:49] <kion> but i cannot delete a rule
[02:49] <kion> with at
[02:49] <wilfrido> Speak português
[02:49] <kion> because ufw asks a question  .. do you really want to delete rule 1 ?
[02:50] <Gryllida> Is Synaptic the default package manager in Ubuntu prior to 10.04?
[02:50] <wilfrido> alguem fala portugues aki
[02:50] <blakkheim> Gryllida: synaptic is just a gui
[02:50] <kion> how can we handle that?
[02:50] <tortoise> I'm using this (http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/DNS-HOWTO-2.html) little howto for a dns server, and they're saying that I should be able to telnet 127.0.0.1 and get my own machine, but I dont' think it's working like it should.
[02:50] <blakkheim> Gryllida: it uses the debian package manager, apt
[02:50] <tortoise> It gives me the message telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused.
[02:50] <tortoise> And when I try to ssh it, it works, but it requires a root password which I don't know.
[02:51] <tortoise> that is, when I sudo ssh 127.0.0.1
[02:51] <Gryllida> blakkheim, it doesn't answer my question, I do know it's the gui for apt
[02:51] <blakkheim> Gryllida: your question was "is synaptic the default package manager [..]" and it's not a package manager at all
[02:51] <MechanicalYeti> In a pinch, you could use sudo to set a root password.
[02:51] <furi> hello?
[02:51] <furi> testing irssi
[02:52] <furi> i am in the #ubuntu channel, correct?
[02:52] <blakkheim> furi: yes
[02:52] <furi> blakkheim: i love this already
[02:52] <she_dyed> yes furi
[02:52] <tortoise> MechanicalYeti: was that directed to me?
[02:53] <MechanicalYeti> Yeah, sorry, should've specified.
[02:53] <tortoise> MechanicalYeti: That's alright, but how do I do that? Because it's asking for a root@127.0.0.1's password?
[02:53] <furi> blakkheim: is there a way to scroll through the chat?
[02:53] <blakkheim> furi: page up/down
[02:53] <furi> blakkheim: thanks
[02:53] <Gryllida> blakkheim, what does a package manager do than, I thought apt is one
[02:54] <Gryllida> then
[02:54] <blakkheim> Gryllida: apt is one, but synaptic is just a GUI frontend, it doesn't actually do the work
[02:54] <furi> blakkheim: what about the color of highlighted text? like, when someone says furi: blahblahblah
[02:54] <furi> blakkheim: i mean, changing it
[02:54] <blakkheim> furi: i don't know offhand, but irssi.org has some great documentation
[02:54] <MechanicalYeti> sudo su
[02:54] <furi> blakkheim: thank you
[02:54] <Gryllida> was synaptic the default gui to anage applications prior to 10.04, whent he software center appeared?
[02:55] <UnholyTerror> yes
[02:55] <MechanicalYeti> then passwd
[02:55] <Gryllida> the**
[02:55] <blakkheim> Gryllida: synaptic is a gui for apt for noobs to easier manage packages, and the "software center" is an even more noob-friendly gui that does more or less the same thing
[02:55] <Gryllida> UnholyTerror, is this 'yes' to me?
[02:55] <raj-k> I loaded Ubuntu onto my flash drive with Unetbootin, and start up my computer. I press "Try Ubuntu without Installing", screen is going black. No keys do anything. What should I do?
[02:55] <UnholyTerror> yees
[02:55] <tortoise> MechanicalYeti: Wouldn't that just change my own root password? Or is 127.0.0.1 the same as me?
[02:55] <sudoer> when I su to someone else, why doesnt /etc/profile get run?
[02:55] <Gryllida> tortoise,  127.0.0.1 the same as me, yes
[02:56] <mack> dr_Willis when i put my password in it gets stuck any thoughts
[02:56] <sudoer> I have echo "test"  in /etc/profile and it never spits out nor seems to run
[02:56] <tortoise> Gryllida: thanks
[02:56] <jiohdi> raj-k: how long?
[02:56] <raj-k> jiohdi: been 15 minutes
[02:56] <Gryllida> blakkheim, so its getting a boob-friendly os, I see
[02:56] <Gryllida> noob**
[02:56] <blakkheim> Gryllida: yes exactly
[02:56] <blakkheim> sudoer: try /bin/echo
[02:57] <jiohdi> raj-k: I would say your unentbootin did not work, try to redo it
[02:57] <tortoise> And when I'm telnet'd into myself (127.0.0.1) as root, how do I get out and back to my usual user@laptop_name: prompt
[02:57] <Gryllida> tortoise, ctrl+d, or 'q', or ctrl+c
[02:57] <blakkheim> tortoise: exit
[02:57] <raj-k> jiohdi: Are there a better software for making bootable usb?
[02:57] <sudoer> blakkheim: no, it doesnt run with /bin/echo 'test'
[02:57] <tortoise> Thank you, for some reason, I can never remember that lol
[02:57]  * Gryllida wonders which one worked
[02:57] <jiohdi> raj-k: there must be, but I am not sure which one
[02:58] <sudoer> the first line of /etc/profile says: # /etc/profile: system-wide .profile file for the Bourne shell (sh(1))
[02:58] <sudoer> does /etc/profile get run when suing to another user ?
[02:59] <tortoise> Gryllida: I used exit, if that was directed to me.
[02:59] <starn> how do i force this to apply permissions? it won't let me everytime i click apply permissions it reverts to old ones.
[03:00] <matts45acp> can somone tell me a good irc chat client ot use
[03:00] <Gryllida> matts45acp, irssi, xchat, empathy, pidgin
[03:01] <GSF1200S> does anyone know how to get the layer option to work in openbox?
[03:01] <Gryllida> matts45acp, try them all by installing them in the software center, and pick the one you feel more comfortable with
[03:01] <mack> xangua flash is installed but its not stable
[03:01] <GSF1200S> it works for me but I cannot get a friends computer to show it
[03:01] <GSF1200S> need always on top
[03:01] <MechanicalYeti> I don't like empathy for irc.
[03:01] <Gryllida> I use irssi
[03:01] <k0d3g3ar> matts45acp,  xchat... its the bomb
[03:01] <blakkheim> irssi here too :3
[03:02] <furi> are there any aliased monospace fonts i can use?
[03:02] <furi> i mean, that come with the system
[03:02] <furi> monospace is antialiased, so...
[03:03] <MadMax_> you guys are all penises
[03:03] <aartist_> Hi, How can I run Ubuntu from a portable HD ? I haven't downloaded /installed anything yet.'
[03:03] <UnholyTerror> ?
[03:03] <blakkheim> MadMax_: then why are you here?
[03:03] <MadMax_> blakkheim: dont be a penis
[03:04] <IdleOne> !codeofconduct | MadMax_
[03:04] <MadMax_> or should i say Anders Nyström
[03:04] <MadMax_> of Stockholm, Sweden
[03:04] <furi> MadMax_: shoo troll, don't bother me, shoo troll, don't bother me...
[03:05] <Sean> hello
[03:05] <helloNetbookUbun> hello room
[03:05] <raj-k> jiohdi: I tried installing Unetbootin again, still black screen show up when I start Ubuntu. I checked MD5, integrity is good. What else could be the problem?
[03:05] <UnholyTerror> aspci
[03:05] <starn> hahaha!! command line super user worked! woot
[03:05] <UnholyTerror> f4 boot options
[03:06] <Sean____> How come on the Ubuntu site 32bit is recommended? Is there some problems with 64bit?
[03:06] <matts45acp> where can i find someone command lines for irssi
[03:06] <Sean____> Just curious since I'm gonna be trying out Ubuntu.
[03:06] <helloNetbookUbun> anybody play wow on ubuntu?
[03:06] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, how old is your filesystem? Also are you using any sort of RAID? If so what kind
[03:06] <UnholyTerror> i run 64bit all day long
[03:06] <Reverend_Ruff> helloNetbookUbun: many people do
[03:06] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: no RAID, system was installed just a few days ago
[03:06] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: fresh, mind
[03:06] <Maahes_> okay, so it's not any disk fragmentation errors.....hrrrm
[03:07] <helloNetbookUbun> i get like 1 frame a second is it possible to tweak it so i get like 14fps
[03:07] <UnholyTerror> what have you installed
[03:07] <Eber> Guys... which machine should I get if I want to run a full Linux notebook? Which machine will give me the best experience I can get with it? Any hints? A Dell machine would be nice (I can get Dell in Brazil..)
[03:07] <blakkheim> Eber: anything that doesn't have broadcom wifi and ati graphics
[03:07] <furi> does anyone know of a good aliased monospaced font?
[03:07] <Reverend_Ruff> helloNetbookUbun: Do you have the appropriate video drivers installed? Is Wine configured correctly? Check those two first.
[03:07] <Sean____> Alright then, I'll use 64bit. Should be fine then.
[03:07] <ToStItOs> I cannot drag and drop my video files from my music folder to my flash drive. How do I fix this?
[03:07] <jiohdi> raj-k: how old is the hardware?
[03:08] <raj-k> jiohdi: about 8 months old
[03:08] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: my packages?
[03:08] <Eber> blakkheim: any other graphics card will wrok? intel? nvidia?
[03:08] <helloNetbookUbun> i'll check my video driver, but let me ask .. is it because i have an intel card?
[03:08] <judax> Eber: You can get many Dell systems with Ubuntu pre-installed
[03:08] <blakkheim> Eber: intel and nvidia are both well supported
[03:08] <Reverend_Ruff> Eber: Linux and Intel get along well. =)
[03:08] <UnholyTerror> Sean____, you can install 32bit libs if needed.
[03:08] <she_dyed> furi there is inconsolada
[03:08] <jiohdi> raj-k: does anything happen at all, when does it go black?
[03:08] <Eber> Cool, good to know!
[03:08] <UnholyTerror> gustavderdrache, yes
[03:08] <furi> she_dyed: thank you, i'll check that
[03:09] <Sean____> Alright. In what circumstance may I need 32bit libs if I am running 64bit?
[03:09] <Eber> I just upgraded my VM with 10.10 I wish I had a machine to enjoy it at full speed!
[03:09] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: developer-y stuff, perl modules, some libraries, google chrome
[03:09] <Eber> It looks gorgeous!
[03:09] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: off the top of my head, don't know how to get a full list of packages (is there a way to pull it out of apt-cache?)
[03:09] <raj-k> jiohdi: No. I am pressing all buttons; "Try Ubuntu without installing," "Instal Ubuntu onto hard drive", etc. but all just show black screen. No sounds
[03:10] <jiohdi> raj-k: so it does get to the menu screen?
[03:10] <UnholyTerror> I mean, was it booting fine (normal) then not after a software install?
[03:10] <Eber> judax: I'll try to find them over here... But I think they are not selling those anymore (in Brazil)...
[03:10] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: oh, no, it's always been sluggish
[03:10] <UnholyTerror> Sean____, there may be some apps you want to run that require 32bit...
[03:10] <raj-k> jiohdi: Yes. "Unetbootin Menu: then lists all options. But after I click one option, nothing is happening
[03:10] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: but only with this version of linux -- it's had Slackware and it used to run 9.04 for quite awhile
[03:10] <starn> how do i make command line wine run in a fixed window size? for sudo wine /media/FA507AA9507A6BEF/WorldofWarcraft/WoW.exe -windowed 1024x756 did not work.... better yet how about that set rez in full screen?
[03:10] <gustavderdrache> all those worked just fine
[03:11] <UnholyTerror> gustavderdrache, why not try to reinstall?
[03:11] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: hmm... because that would be a logical option i didn't think about? :P
[03:11] <Sean____> alright. Is it an easy procedure to get 32bit libs? (Sorry first time using Linux/Ubuntu so just wanna understand it all)
[03:11] <starn> Reason i ask is WoW keeps trying to display 2560x1024
[03:11] <judax> Eber: Good luck and have fun!
[03:11] <UnholyTerror> Sean____, in the repositories. Use Synaptics
[03:12] <Eber> judax: Tks!
[03:12] <Sean____> okay
[03:12] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, okay, acouple more angles. What's your bios and version? And also, do you have any strange peripherals hooked up. Anything you would not find in a stock pc these days?
[03:13] <UnholyTerror> I don't use them.
[03:13] <blinkie> I'm installing 10.10 server ed. 64bit on a machine. want to use it for serving files to other units on the same LAN and also stream media, for instance to ps3's. I would also like it to be a webserver (definitely very low traffic, mostly me playing around), have an irc "bouncer" (screen+irssi, I guess) and act as a torrentbox. I need to control it from outside the LAN, and be able to transfer
[03:13] <blinkie> files to and from it (again outside the LAN) without anybody in the middle being able to see what the traffic is.
[03:13] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: no strange peripherals as far as I know
[03:13] <blinkie> is this really really hard to do?
[03:13] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: BIOS is.. uh... tell me there's a way to find this out without having to reboot
[03:13] <she_dyed> gustavderdrache: not a usb boot is it?
[03:13] <gustavderdrache> she_dyed: nope, boots off a SATA drive
[03:13] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, if you know your motherboard type
[03:13] <raj-k> jiohdi: Yes. "Unetbootin Menu: then lists all options. But after I click one option, nothing is happening
[03:14] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: actually, one sec, i think i might be able to dig up the info
[03:14] <UnholyTerror> gustavderdrache, hold up...
[03:14] <Sean93> how do i update a tracker in transmission?
[03:14] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: eh?
[03:14] <Sean93> and is there a better torrent client?
[03:14] <Maahes_> even a usb boot shouldn't be that bad, I've got maybe a 40s boot for my USB on weaker hardware than what he's running
[03:14] <toshiba> 还有人在的不？
[03:15] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: it's a Foxconn, uses the X58 chipset
[03:15] <Maahes_> Sean93, depends what you mean by better. Some people like bittornado, some like using utorrent on ubuntu, if you hang out in the console, rtorrent is excellent
[03:16] <UnholyTerror> I wonder if System->Administration->Sytem Testing would show you anything
[03:16] <toshiba> why this is so quilty >
[03:16] <Sean93> utorrent in wine or is there a linux version?
[03:16] <Sean93> im not fond of wine
[03:16] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: I ran a disk test, and it's okay, but haven't run any of the other tests
[03:16] <toshiba> it is ?
[03:17] <toshiba> sudo apt-get update
[03:20] <kion> Anybody with an alienware M15x?
[03:20] <starn> how do i make command line wine run in a fixed window size? for sudo wine /media/FA507AA9507A6BEF/WorldofWarcraft/WoW.exe -windowed 1024x756 did not work.... better yet how about that set rez in full screen?
[03:21] <ToStItOs> How can I set up permissions for my Usb flash drive to accept media files from my music folder
[03:21] <UnholyTerror> gustavderdrache, system testing gives a nice thorough report of your system.
[03:21] <she_dyed> it should be x786 stern
[03:21] <matts45acp> -x
[03:21] <she_dyed> or x768 stern maybe it rejected
[03:21] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: system testing has decided to sit and wait instead of being useflu
[03:21] <gustavderdrache> *useful
[03:22] <UnholyTerror> can you pull up a terminal?
[03:22] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: always :)
[03:22] <UnholyTerror> what does 'top' tell you?
[03:22] <she_dyed> Use 1024x768 starn maybe it rejected
[03:22] <starn> ok i shall try she_dyed
[03:22] <UnholyTerror> or System Monitor
[03:22] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: that 99.9% of my CPU is idle :)
[03:23] <jiohdi> ToStItOs: easiest way is to open a terminal... sudo -s  pw: xxxx and then type the name of your file manager... you will be in super user mode... and you can move any file anywhere
[03:23] <macabre_> ola, is there any reason why apt-upgrade is holding back kernel 2.6.32-25 ?
[03:23] <starn> she_dyed only reason i am doing this is for it wont let me set premissions for it by right clicking :\
[03:23] <UnholyTerror> is the HD light on(alot)?
[03:23] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: nope
[03:24] <starn> odd i did normal sudo said i do not own .wine
[03:24] <UnholyTerror> hmmmm
[03:24] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: there we go, killed it and restarted it :)
[03:24] <UnholyTerror> because you don't
[03:24] <blakkheim> macabre_: sudo aptitude full-upgrade
[03:24] <starn> its dumb  i have to run wine is super mode..
[03:25] <UnholyTerror> you shouldn't need to run wine as super-user
[03:25] <starn> i know..
[03:25] <furi> how do you install fonts? what is the file extension required?
[03:25] <starn> gonna uninstall it
[03:25] <ToStItOs> jiohdi, but how do I get my usb flash drive to let me drag and drop media files
[03:25] <she_dyed> but at least starn might be able to get to play
[03:25] <gustavderdrache> UnholyTerror: starting all the tests, including the hibernate one
[03:25] <Reverend_Ruff> furi: file extension is irrelevant in *nix environments.
[03:25] <furi> Reverend_Ruff: i see
[03:25] <starn> soo like this she_dyed? sudo wine /media/FA507AA9507A6BEF/WorldofWarcraft/WoW.exe -1024x786
[03:26] <furi> Reverend_Ruff: but nevertheless how do i install fonts?
[03:26] <jiohdi> ToStItOs: once in your file manager, you can back click on a folder for your  media and change the permissions in properties
[03:26] <Nu-Buntu> anyone kno how to reset resolution in xubunt?
[03:26] <she_dyed> starn: its 768, sorry
[03:26] <Reverend_Ruff> !xubuntu | Nu-Buntu
[03:26] <rammyIRC> how to read pdf in terminal
[03:26] <rammyIRC> ?
[03:26] <starn> no prob i'm dyslixic as well
[03:26] <jiohdi> ToStItOs: in the super user file manager you can drag and drop anything anywhere
[03:26] <rammyIRC> any special package available
[03:27] <starn> YAY she_dyed IT worked thank you so much!!
[03:27] <furi> how do i install fonts?

[03:27] <furi> well then, now i need to know how to change tabs in irssi...
[03:27] <starn> now the sound is missing she_dyed. oh well screw sound
[03:27] <blakkheim> furi: alt+arrow key
[03:27] <grr> Running 10.10 gnome. will installing xfe have an adverse effect on system?
[03:27] <blakkheim> furi: or alt+number of the tab you want
[03:27] <grr> xfe is file manager
[03:27] <she_dyed> starn: you'll find out soon...
[03:28] <seidos> grr, xfe?  or xfce?
[03:28] <grr> xfe file manager
[03:28] <rammyIRC> how to read pdf file

[03:29] <she_dyed> starn: always have a cold one in teh fridge for the challenges
[03:30] <she_dyed> rammyIRC: where in X? theres evince...
[03:30] <rammyIRC> evince ??
[03:30] <grr> seidos, looks like xfe is 10MB download and 31MB installed, but really I don't want to mess up other gnome stuff
[03:30] <rammyIRC> im tryin to read it from the command line

[03:31] <matts45acp> can somone tell me how to change my default nickname in irssi
[03:31] <matts45acp> ?
[03:31] <UnholyTerror> evince /path/to/pdf
[03:31] <UnholyTerror> forward slash nick nickname
[03:31] <she_dyed> rammyIRC: look at ghostscript/ghostview
[03:32] <rammyIRC> oay
[03:32] <rammyIRC> okay
[03:32] <YoMama> Hey does anyone else if they sorted out the problem with netbook 10.10 and the slowness reladted to mutter or intel video?
[03:32] <YoMama> related*
[03:32] <endhiran> an application to convert .mp3 sound file to .aac sound file? does anyone know.........:'(?
[03:33] <matts45acp> how do i have that name automatically use when i start irssi
[03:33] <puff> Sometimes - now is a case in point - when I maximize a window (in this case emacs), the bottom edge goes off the screen.  I can only see the top edge of the emacs buffer line, and I can't see the microbuffer line at all.
[03:33] <puff> How can I adjust this?
[03:33] <rammyIRC> installing ghostview has any prob
[03:33] <rammyIRC> any known issues
[03:33] <tim_> I am having trouble finding a network manager to replace the one on the default panel using AWN. I keep seeing that it is in the extras trunk. I have that installed but it is not showing up in my applets list. Am I missing something?
[03:33] <UnholyTerror> wouldn't that be in prefs?
[03:33] <KB1JWQ> YoMama: Check the bug tracker.
[03:34] <scampbell> Is there anyway to get evolution to use vlc or mplayer as it's default player for media files?
[03:34] <YoMama> where can I find that?
[03:34] <KB1JWQ> YoMama: In launchpad.
[03:34] <IdleOne> !bugs | YoMama
[03:34] <KB1JWQ> !launchpad
[03:35] <YoMama> ahh sweet thanks alot
[03:36] <Juacho> hola
[03:36] <Juacho> hi
[03:36] <Juacho> quie estan por aca
[03:37] <she_dyed> !es > por favor juacho
[03:38] <matts45acp> how do i have that name automatically use when i start irssi
[03:38] <Juacho> hablemos de ubuntu quieres
[03:38] <Gnea> !es | Juacho
[03:39] <furi> i saw a preview of irssi with split tabs. how can i do this?
[03:41] <Barridus> why is a file copy in terminal so much slower from a /mounted network windows share slower than the same file copy if i mount it via nautilus and copy that way with the gui?
[03:42] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, okay, lots of sleuthing, but no definite answers. One question: Did you buy this motherboard in 2008?
[03:42] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: nope, '09
[03:42] <Barridus> or even copy it via the terminal from the ~/.gfvs folder with command prompt.  that is also much faster than via the first method via /mount
[03:42] <Maahes_> okay, then its probably not one of the screwed up Foxconn boards that shipped in 2008
[03:43] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: i'd probably see boot problems with Windows if that were the case, wouldn't I?
[03:43] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, no it was linux specific
[03:43] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: ah
[03:43] <she_dyed> sabotage!
[03:43] <matts45acp> can somone tell me how to make my nick name the name irssi uses when i start it
[03:44] <Barridus> is GVFS that much faster than /mounting a  network resource?
[03:44] <Maahes_> Recommendations: Find your bios for your mother board, upgrade to the latest version. Then: Try a different kernel, such as low-latency or whatnot. Then: Try an older kernel.
[03:44] <Maahes_> after that, if none of those work: Try disabling Plymouth, then ureadahead
[03:44] <ToStItOs> jiohdi, ok hel me out so how can I get my usb drive to have the permission to drag and drop? What do I need to do?
[03:44] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: are alternate kernels easy to get to via apt, or do i get to go compile from source like was intended for all of mankind?
[03:45] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, there's several alt kernels in apt
[03:45] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: darn :)
[03:45] <JoeMaverickSett> matts45acp: although this is not an irssi support channel, it's at #irssi use that channel next time, you can do /set nick
[03:45] <Maahes_> matts45acp, the solution to your problem is sudo aptitude install weechat ;P
[03:46] <she_dyed> +1 Maahes_
[03:46] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: how do i go about disabling plymouth/ureadahead?
[03:46] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: i
[03:46] <gustavderdrache> aslfkj
[03:46] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: I'm making notes so I don't forget :)
[03:46] <jiohdi> ToStItOs: check your im from me
[03:51] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, ureadahead can be removed via apt. Plymouth can only be sort of commented out: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-mint-84/how-to-disable-plymouth-in-mint-ubuntu-827422/ you may also, try when you boot to press escape and see if booting hangs specifically on any one message
[03:51] <Maahes_> (escape gets around Plymouth and shows text)
[03:51] <Seq> Trying to update-grub, I get this. Any ideas? /usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: Couldn't find PV pv1. Check your device.map.
[03:52] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: okay, cool
[03:52] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: I don't see a low-latency kernel specifically in apt, am I missing it or is it named something else?
[03:52] <Maahes_> it might have been renamed, lemme look
[03:52] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: okay, thanks
[03:53] <roknir> i recently upgraded to 10.10 and i'm seeing tons of /bin/sh /usr/bin/xdg-screensaver suspend processes building up on my system.  anyone know what the problem may be?
[03:55] <Nv1dia> Anyone not afk? I need help with a terminal command, and its a tad too advanced to google.
[03:55] <roknir> i'm not afk, but i may not be able to help either.  whatcha got?
[03:56] <Nv1dia> Well, i need to search through an entire directory of source code for any indication of Si4907.ko
[03:56] <Nv1dia> im trying to track down a driver.
[03:56] <roknir> grep -ri Si4907.ko /path/to/files/*
[03:56] <Nv1dia> problem is, the driver isn't created in the compile, which makes me think(or hope) its commented out.
[03:56] <roknir> ?
[03:57] <Sean93> im trying to install skdownloader with google chrome, i get the error Could not find java > 1.6 in your system
[03:57] <Sean93> Please install Java from "http://www.java.com"
[03:57] <Nv1dia> ill give it a shot = )
[03:57] <roknir> good luck Nv1dia; hope it works.

[04:01] <Quantum_Ion> that japanese script looks GOOD
[04:02] <rww> a's speaking in Chinese…
[04:02] <TeruFSX> monty_hall sudo killall pulseaudio
[04:02] <Random832> a: 这是一个聊天室 - 我们在这里说英语
[04:02] <TeruFSX> should do it
[04:02] <TeruFSX> !cn
[04:02] <monty_hall> thx
[04:02] <Random832> [google translated "this is a chatroom - we speak english here]
[04:02] <a> 为什么不说汉语
[04:02] <a> 有中国人在不？？？
[04:03] <TeruFSX> a: 我不是说汉语的人。我不认为这里大多数人都讲汉语。
[04:03] <Quantum_Ion> The price tag is your behind
[04:03] <Random832> a: 我不知道中國。我用了一個網站，自動翻譯
[04:03] <kyaw> hello
[04:03] <toal193> Once I used a GTK+ GUI tool to change applications volume preferences in pulseaudio, but I've forgotten it's name? Does anyone know?
[04:03] <a> 为什么这没有说汉语的呢？？？
[04:03] <Random832> a: http://translate.google.com 我用
[04:04] <kyaw> Do Ubuntu desktop and netbook versions support touch screen input?
[04:04] <Sean93> how do i delete a diretory from terminal?
[04:04] <kyaw> like tablet
[04:04] <rww> Sean93: rm -r directory/
[04:04] <TeruFSX> i know that they have at least rudimentary, hard-to-use touchscreen support
[04:04] <Random832> a: people in here do not speak chinese.
[04:04] <Random832> !cn | a
[04:04] <TeruFSX> beyong that I donot know
[04:04] <Maahes_> I just barely have enough space to install a new kernel and find out if that fixes my problem
[04:05] <she_dyed> Maahes_: living on the edge eh?
[04:05] <rww> this is why I don't separate /boot and / :(
[04:05] <kyaw> If I install netbook version on a tablet pc, I can only use mouse and keyboard for input?
[04:06] <Maahes_> she_dyed, heh, yeah :) I've already almost hosed this install once by updating too much at once
[04:06] <TeruFSX> kyaw you can probably use the touchscreen to some extent on some tablets
[04:06] <TeruFSX> i don't really know much about touchscreen support, besides that it exists
[04:06] <jacksparrow> how do i dl compiz fusion in the terminal all comands iv found dont work iam runing back track 4
[04:06] <rww> !backtrack | jacksparrow
[04:07] <Maahes_> I'm sincerely considering removing more things. If I could be certain my usb would still work I'd install awesomeWM and a lightweight login manager and remove gnome and gdm
[04:07] <kyaw> I saw a video on engadget. Title is "Ubuntu 10.10's multitouch Unity UI demoed on Dell, makes multitasking look easy".  The video is convincing to install Ubuntu
[04:07] <TeruFSX> Maahes_ why wouldn't it
[04:07] <a> 这里都有哪里的人？？？
[04:08] <h00k> a: /join #ubuntu-cn
[04:08] <kyaw> that video is which version of Ubuntu?
[04:08] <she_dyed> Maahes_: archlive has lxde that you can switch to awesome, fyi
[04:08] <Maahes_> TeruFSX, I tried creating a new user myname and giving it a password, not only would gdm not let me log in, it hung the system, crashed, and then I had to repair casper-rw because of a lot of dead inodes
[04:09] <Maahes_> she_dyed, arch also has absolutely no dependency management.
[04:09] <TeruFSX> a: 你是唯一的华人在这里发言。我们不能提供一种语言，我们不理解支持。请检查其中一个讲中文的聊天室。
[04:09] <rww> TeruFSX: they're gone
[04:09] <TeruFSX> yes, he is
[04:09] <TeruFSX> he apparently just gave up
[04:10] <Maahes_> So yeah whilst I want to replace gdm, I'm reluctant to do it yet.
[04:10] <she_dyed> gdm, the login manager?
[04:10] <TeruFSX> i think that installing another display manager would allow you to reconfigure them
[04:11] <TeruFSX> at least that happened when I tried to install kdm
[04:11] <she_dyed> yeah they followsome basic rules
[04:12] <kyaw> what version of Ubuntu is this? http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/25/ubuntu-10-10s-multitouch-unity-ui-demoed-on-dell-makes-multita/
[04:12] <TeruFSX> 10.10 Netbook Edition
[04:12] <denny> the networking seems to have completely stopped working on my Compaq netbook with my most recent set of updates.  Wireless and LAN, neither of them are seeing my network.  Anyone know what could be going on there?
[04:13] <kyaw> So netbook edition supports touch screen input?
[04:13] <TeruFSX> kyaw yes
[04:13] <hasenj> can Unity run on a normal laptop? my processor is Core-i7 and video card is ati radeon with the open source driver, but Unity doesn't run on it, what's up with that?
[04:13] <TeruFSX> yes
[04:13] <kyaw> does desktop version support also?
[04:13] <TeruFSX> hasenj that driver might not have 3D rendering support
[04:14] <k0d3g3ar> ne1 here know if all models of eeepc machines have Nvidia video in them?
[04:14] <hasenj> TeruFSX, how can I tell? the glxgears runs fine on it
[04:14] <TeruFSX> kyaw desktop supports touch input, but i don't know if touchscreen support will be enabled by default and if it isn't i don't know how to enable it
[04:14] <a> 嗯？？
[04:14] <jacksparrow> how do i dl compiz fusion in the terminal
[04:14] <k0d3g3ar> and where do I download the nvidia drivers for Ubuntu 10.10 with opengl support?
[04:14] <kyaw> ok thank you
[04:15] <jacksparrow> all the comads i have tryed dont work
[04:15] <kyaw> netbook version is defaultly enable touch input?
[04:15] <TeruFSX> k0d3g3ar some eeepcs have Intel video
[04:15] <TeruFSX> go to System> Administration> Additional Drivers and check for a driver for your video card
[04:16] <TeruFSX> kyaw to my knowledge, yes
[04:16] <TeruFSX> jacksparrow try opening Synaptic and looking for compiz
[04:16] <TeruFSX> also again we cannot help you out past that
[04:17] <TeruFSX> you aren't using Ubuntu
[04:17] <roknir> does anyone have any good links about how to resolve a driver "activated but not in use" message in jackal for the nvidia drivers?  i have nvidia-current installed and ran nvidia-xconfig, but no matter what i do i can't get that additional drivers window to say the driver's actually in use.
[04:17] <furi> the theme isn't changing in irssi, but it says it was changed. how come?
[04:18] <k0d3g3ar> TeruFSX, do you know how to tell what video card is installed in a unit?
[04:18] <kyaw> Can I install netbook version on desktop computer?
[04:18] <psusi> yea
[04:18] <TeruFSX> k0d3g3ar it should offer the driver if you have a supported nVIDIA chipset
[04:19] <k0d3g3ar> TeruFSX, ok, thanks.  I'll check it out
[04:19] <adamkex> hey, what's up with this "Unity" interface instead of GNOME Shell for 11.04?
[04:19] <roknir> k0d3g3ar: lspci | grep VGA
[04:19] <TeruFSX> ubuntu already uses Unity
[04:19] <TeruFSX> yeah roknir's tip is better
[04:19] <adamkex> in 10.10?
[04:19] <JohnFlux> Hi all
[04:19] <Sean93> how do i use skdownloader with google chrome?
[04:20] <JohnFlux> Ubuntu 10.10 is really slow for me
[04:20] <JohnFlux> Googling I think it's a bug between ati drivers and xorg
[04:20] <yagoo> kyaw, u probably can but I bet you shouldnt.
[04:20] <TeruFSX> adamkex yes also 11.04 will already be in package freeze when GNOME 3.0 comes out
[04:20] <TeruFSX> with GNOME shell
[04:20] <psusi> Unity is the shell for netbook edition
[04:21] <root_> sssadad
[04:21] <bluefoxicy> ok
[04:21] <bluefoxicy> why the hell
[04:21] <bluefoxicy> does flash not work in chromium
[04:21] <adamkex> psusi: but isn't that for single task computing?
[04:21] <root_> i'm using backtrack 4
[04:21] <psusi> bluefoxicy, works for me... at least as well as adobe's horrible products usually do
[04:22] <root_> how can teach me crack wap
[04:22] <psusi> adamkex, no
[04:22] <bluefoxicy> psusi:  everything says I don't have flash, but it works in firefox
[04:22] <TeruFSX> !backtrack
[04:23] <TeruFSX> hey, root_ read that. also, I can't teach you how to crack WEP.
[04:23] <jacksparrow> y cant i post to backtrack channel??
[04:23] <furi> the theme isn't changing in irssi, but it says it was changed. how come?
[04:23] <bsmith093> anyone kniow of a quick way to demux the audio from an avi ( and i mean just copy the audio track asis to an mp3)
[04:23] <TeruFSX> jacksparrow I don't know.
[04:24] <root_> hey TeruFSX, I can teach you how to crack wep
[04:24] <root_> ;))
[04:24] <adamkex> psusi: ok.. do you think most people would like it? i just looked at a 1600x900 screenshot if it and it looked undesirable imo..
[04:24] <TeruFSX> root_: I'm not interested.
[04:24] <rww> jacksparrow: they have unidentified users quieted for some reason
[04:24] <rww> ubottu: register | jacksparrow
[04:24] <psusi> adamkex, that kind of defeats the purpose.... the whole point is that it is for SMALL screens
[04:24] <Bossmanbeta> bsmith093, mplayer ./input.avi -dumpaudio -dumpfile output.mp3
[04:25] <bsmith093> Bossmanbeta:
[04:25] <dw-> yoink
[04:25] <jacksparrow> ic ty
[04:25] <Sean93> how do i use skdownloader with google chrome?
[04:25] <adamkex> psusi: ok, so what will the regular non-netbook users use? everything seems very unclear to me
[04:26] <TeruFSX> adamkex non-Netbook users will use the standard GNOME 2.3 desktop
[04:26] <psusi> adamkex, whenever gnome3 finally ships, it will be gnome-shell

[04:26] <Random832> gnome-shell X_X
[04:26] <TeruFSX> again GNOME 3.0 and GNOME Shell will not be in 11.04
[04:26] <jacksparrow> lol woops my bad
[04:26] <virtual> hi there
[04:27] <TeruFSX> HellO!
[04:27] <tortoise> Where can you see what version Kernel you are using?
[04:27] <roknir> tortoise: uname -a
[04:27] <virtual> hi, anyone know how do i login remote on my xubuntu??
[04:27] <tortoise> roknir: Thanks
[04:27] <adamkex> TeruFSX psusi: ok, i just read on slashdot.org/linux that ubuntu is moving away from GNOME Shell
[04:28] <psusi> adamkex, yea.. it's full of it
[04:28] <roknir> tortoise: or more concisely, uname -r
[04:28] <adamkex> psusi: this all seems so confusing, thank god i prefer xfce
[04:28] <BkFlameBroiled> i like gnome cuz it seems faster, but kde looks nicer
[04:28] <furi> how do i change the background color of a fallback terminal?
[04:28] <TeruFSX> adamkex: that summary is bad
[04:28] <kd6oat> hello
[04:29] <BkFlameBroiled> hellp
[04:29] <TeruFSX> also it's a bit inflammatory; Unity is just a shell for GNOME
[04:29] <adamkex> TeruFSX: this is why i am asking questions here, because it didn't seem to be 100% accurate
[04:29] <psusi> I need to go check out unity on my netbook... should be pretty nice... last time I tried gnome-shell on my desktop it was pretty sweet too... just buggy
[04:30] <TeruFSX> I can understand why they wouldn't use GNOME Shell. Mainly, it wasn't yet finished.
[04:30] <TeruFSX> *won't yet be finished then.
[04:30] <pseudocube> Question-- can anyone tell me where Ubuntu's cursor file is located, and whether I can copy it and use it in XP?
[04:30] <furi> how do i change the background color in the fallback terminal?
[04:31] <virtual> wow we have a lot of doubts here, i'm  going out...]
[04:31] <psusi> I wouldn't be so sure it won't make it into 11.04
[04:31] <adamkex> TeruFSX: maybe most people, especially "converts", would dislike it
[04:31] <BkFlameBroiled> hey does anyone know how i can turn my old laptop with s-video out into a decent htpc? I tried running boxee under hardy and it was soo sluggish, doesnt help i only have 32mb video memory either
[04:31] <psusi> they already delayed it once... doesn't seem very likely that it will need delayed again... but time will tell
[04:31] <tortoise> the networking-howto at tldp seems to be written in 1998...is it still useful?
[04:32] <TeruFSX> tortoise It is likely marginally useful for wired networks. Otherwise, it is probably useless.
[04:32] <psusi> adamkex, I dunno... converts from windows maybe... but it seems a lot like my wife's macbook to me
[04:32] <tortoise> I'm reading through the DNS howto, and it says that I'll need to configure a few files, and would be instructed on that in this howto.
[04:32] <TeruFSX> What files?
[04:32] <k0d3g3ar> furi, give Terminator a try if you haven't downloaded it already
[04:33] <adamkex> psusi: it seems very unorthodox.. but i am very biased considering that i liked XMonad before
[04:33] <furi> k0d3g3ar: idk, i can't switch to it with ctrl+alt+f#, can i?
[04:33] <StFS> Hi. I'm running an ubuntu server as a guest in VirtualBox and I seem to have lost my network interface in the guest. It may have something to do with me changing the MAC address of it in the configuration on the host. Where (in the guest) should I look for configuration to get it back up?
[04:33] <tortoise> It says "You also need good /etc/nsswitch.conf, /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts files as a starting point, since I will not explain their function here. If you don't already have all this set up and working the Networking-HOWTO and/or the Networking-Overview-HOWTO explains how to set it up. Read them."
[04:34] <tortoise> that is in addition to being able to telnet in and out of your own machine (which I know I can do).
[04:34] <k0d3g3ar> furi, huh?  Its a separate program.  Download through Synaptic
[04:34] <she_dyed> furi yes because what you 're planning on isn't as trivial as GUI desktops are
[04:34] <furi> she_dyed: huh?
[04:35] <tortoise> Actually now that I think about it. I can't telnet 127.0.0.1, but I can sudo ssh 127.0.0.1 ..is there a critical difference in those?
[04:35] <k0d3g3ar> furi, try using the base level widget first, with a 11.1" cork
[04:36] <furi> k0d3gear: i'm sorry, i have no idea what you're talking about
[04:36] <she_dyed> furi look at bashish for theming the VT's
[04:36] <furi> she_dyed: bashish? is that in apt-get install?
[04:36] <TeruFSX> okay apparently 11.04 will use some form of Unity for desktop users as well
[04:37] <tortoise> Could anyone help me with this?
[04:37] <she_dyed> not sure but check out the homepage to see if yo really want to go there
[04:37] <BkFlameBroiled> hows GPU performance in 11.04?
[04:38] <destr0> hi there, i got some problems with sending files by pidgin or any other form (hotmail using email etc) anyone can help me? im using ubuntu 10.04
[04:39] <BkFlameBroiled> are you behind a router/firewall?
[04:39] <destr0> i dont know, i just installed ubuntu today.
[04:40] <destr0> i have updated it, and some programs but im new in linux
[04:40] <BkFlameBroiled> is there other hardware between your comp and you modem?
[04:41] <destr0> BkFlameBroiled: nothing else
[04:41] <tortoise> Can someone help me with this? I'm reading/doing a DNS HOWTO on tldp.org and this part: "You also need good /etc/nsswitch.conf, /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts files as a starting point, since I will not explain their function here.", it's giving me a bit of an issue.
[04:41] <tortoise> I'm not sure if I have these "good" or not, or even what that means.
[04:41] <jacksparrow> wow realy i did less to get bt4 runing and make a client and update it than your asking for regestration so i can ask a question
[04:41] <destr0> BkFlameBroiled even i can recieve files with pidgin but i cant sent it
[04:41] <antonius> moved over one time zone...changed my system time in the panel 8 times today..keeps switching back...anyone?
[04:41] <destr0> BkFlameBroiled and i cant upload it to rapidshare or gmail or anything :/
[04:42] <BkFlameBroiled> thats weird...are you working on a fresh install?
[04:42] <AndrewMC> antonius: You may have to set your BIOS clock
[04:43] <destr0> BkFlameBroiled yes, i have Ubuntu 10.04 Lt? (something like that) i just downloaded it yesterday and installed today.
[04:43] <she_dyed> tortoies they;re explained in thenetworking HOWTO, at least those portions you menntioned are still relevant
[04:43] <BkFlameBroiled> thats prolly nothing goign on with ubuntu then, prolly an issue with your isp
[04:43] <antonius> AndrewMC: never changed the time in bios, was out of town for 2 months, just changed ubuntu options
[04:43] <wgwinn> has anyone experienced the 'No DEFAULT of UI Configuration directive found!' error using the latests 32bit desktop .iso booting from a cd known to be good on multiple systems? all i can find on google talks about usb drives giving the error not actual systems
[04:44] <wgwinn> er, not actual cds.
[04:44] <destr0> BkFlameBroiled im using AMD64 version.
[04:44] <MonthOLDpickle> what version of wine is best to i nstall
[04:44] <pseudocube> I would like to copy the Ubuntu default cursor onto my desktop, as I find the one XP uses on my dualboot system to be hideous. My goal is to get the same cursor on both systems. Where can I find the .cur file?
[04:44] <tortoise> she_dyed: hrrmm...I'm not finding that section in the howto :|
[04:45] <she_dyed> tortoise: which howto
[04:45] <roknir> does anyone know a good way to get a list of packages that would be installed in 10.10 by default?  i went crazy with installing some compiz stuff and want to uninstall a lot of it, but i think purging compiz* would remove much more than i added.  any ideas?
[04:45] <tortoise> networking-howto
[04:45] <tortoise> I read through all of the networking-overview-howto, and didn't see it in there either.
[04:45] <toshiba> sudo apt-get upgrade
[04:46] <toshiba> does it ?
[04:46] <she_dyed> tortoise: see if there is a miniHowto for internet
[04:46] <furi> i just tried bashish, i got some errors so i had to uninstall
[04:46] <roknir> toshiba: no, apt-get upgrade would just update any out-of-date packages i have.
[04:50] <tortoise> she_dyed: not seeing one
[04:50] <linelevel> hi, i just upgraded today from lucid to maverick. my laptop froze most of the way through the maverick installation. after rebooting i ran the partial upgrade to finish up the install and installed all updates and says everything's fine. But i notice that the splash screen during startup and shutdown has text instead of a logo, and i see shell text on top of the splash screen that i think should be hidden.
[04:50] <shadowscene> Hello
[04:50] <shadowscene> Has anyone seen a user called Vicissitude in this channel recently
[04:51] <roknir> linelevel: use at your own risk since i haven't done this personally, but this may be helpful: http://linuxhub.net/2010/09/fix-ugly-plymouth-screen-on-ubuntu-10-10-using-a-simple-script/
[04:51] <she_dyed> as in today? shadowscene
[04:51] <shadowscene> any day
[04:51] <shadowscene> within the past week
[04:51] <SteveThing> hello all
[04:51] <virtuald> can anyone recommend a calendar application, other than evolution?
[04:51] <SteveThing> i'm having issues with 10.10 netbook remix
[04:52] <Gumby`> virtuald: there is one in kontact
[04:52] <DrManhattan> so im wondering what I can do to improve VM 3d performance with an ubuntu guest OS
[04:52] <kd6oat> test
[04:52] <rww> shadowscene: no
[04:52] <virtuald> gumby`: and preferably not a kde one :p
[04:52] <shadowscene> rww: thank you
[04:52] <DrManhattan> I would like to use my linux VM to play wolfenstein enemy territory but I have my doubts as to whether that is feasable or not
[04:52] <LavaEagle> How can I make Wubi install Ubuntu 10.04 LTS?
[04:53] <Gumby`> virtuald: lol
[04:53] <Gumby`> then I got nothin.  google cal  hehe
[04:54] <LavaEagle> Or just a different version
[04:54] <akfaew> after i installed kubuntu-desktop on a regular ubuntu, when the system loads i get a text based splash-like screen saying "Kubuntu" and four dots below it. how do i change it back to the default ubuntu?
[04:54] <SteveThing> I'm using 10.10 netbook remix on an Asus 1005HA w/ 2GB ram. When I close an app, the screen goes completely black for 10-30 seconds most of the time, or just hangs forever.
[04:54] <SteveThing> How do I diagnose and fix this?
[04:54] <tortoise> she_dyed: Actually, I think I may have found it in the networking-howto
[04:55] <she_dyed> yes its there tortoise, stop wasting our time
[04:55] <furi> i have two issues i need fixed: first of all, my n52te has always remained in the same mapping, and pystromo didn't work. nostromo for linux has worked fine, and i can get the daemon up, but the m52te still remains in the same state. second of all, music applet is giving errors whenever i try to put it onto the panel.
[04:55] <virtuald> i guess i'll have to try kcontact then but i don't expect it to be any good without the rest of kde
[04:56] <tortoise> she_dyed: Sorry, I didn't realize your time was so precious that you couldn't help noobs, being that you *are* sitting in the ubuntu support channel. Sorry, I'm an idiot.
[04:56] <virtuald> gumby`: you meant korganizer didn't you?
[04:57] <virtuald> gumby`: hmm seems to be the same thing
[04:57] <Gumby`> virtuald: well, korganizer is part of kontact.  kontact is sort of the suite
[04:57] <Gumby`> I like it.  *shrug*
[04:58] <virtuald> i don't need the suit, just the shirt please
[04:58] <Gumby`> you can install it without installing kde.  it'll install a bunch of deps that are kde libs, but you dont have to install a full blown kde
[04:58] <Gumby`> you can probably just get away with the calendar app then
[04:58] <Gumby`> not sure how adding calendar events you get via email would work though.
[04:59] <virtuald> 8[
[05:00] <virtuald> hm
[05:00] <jimtuv> @akfaew You can follow the directions on the page to revert to pure Ubuntu http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome
[05:00] <jimtuv> or should I say genome
[05:01] <akfaew> jimtuv: i need the kde, i just don't want the Kubuntu loading message
[05:01] <SteveThing> I'm using 10.10 netbook remix on an Asus 1005HA w/ 2GB ram. When I close an app, the screen goes completely black for 10-30 seconds most of the time, or just hangs forever.
[05:01] <SteveThing> How do I diagnose and fix this?
[05:01] <bcgrown> i'm on xubuntu 10.10 32-bit and I keep getting "additional plugins required" messages in firefox.  when i click "install missing plugins", nothing is listed.  i have flashplugin and sun-java6-plugin installed,  and all packages are up to date.  anyone know what's going on?
[05:01] <roknir> sorry, my googlefu fails me.  is there a command to get a list of all currently installed packages?
[05:02] <blakkheim> roknir: dpkg --get-selections
[05:02] <bcgrown> http://www.spaenaur.com/view_pdf.asp?Page=C2  <-- this is a page that gives me the message and doesn't display anything
[05:02] <SteveThing> bcgrown, have you restarted firefox since the install completed?
[05:02] <bcgrown> SteveThing: yes
[05:02] <pseudocube> Where is the default ubuntu cursor file located?
[05:03] <SteveThing> bcgrown, hmm, sorry.. that was the extent of my knowledge... :/
[05:03] <neung> ดีครับบบบ
[05:03] <roknir> blakkheim: granted, this seems like a dumb question, but, some of them show up as deinstall.  does that mean i had it installed at one time but have since removed it?
[05:03] <imizael> I've just installed 10.10 and ran a b43 firmware installer (i have the b4312 low power chipset), and now windows refuses to recognize any wireless networks.  how can i install the default b43 firmware for my wireless card?
[05:03] <angelman> imizael, good reason to get rid of Windows, Ubuntu is better
[05:04] <hayseus> dire
[05:04] <imizael> that's be great, angelman, but wireless refuses to work in ubuntu as well
[05:04] <rww> imizael: the b43 driver doesn't work with bcm4312. remove it, install bcmwl-kernel-source, shutdown your computer *and turn it off* (to reset the card), then restart.
[05:04] <Maahes_> pseudocube, if you want to install new cursors, you can drag them into the cursors tab of appearance
[05:05] <bcgrown> SteveThing: can you view that link i pasted?
[05:05] <imizael> rww: working on that now, i had uninstalled ubuntu in the interim
[05:05] <angelman> dont restart or shut down until you do what rww said
[05:05] <pseudocube> actually, i want to copy the cursor file to the desktop
[05:05] <imizael> angelman: can't help it, have to-- i'm currently reinstalling ubuntu
[05:06] <Maahes_> I'm having a problem 10.04, I tried to upgrade my kernel, and it fails exit status 2, this is the output of my apt/log http://pastebin.com/aDYfbnPA
[05:06] <rww> imizael: I'm assuming that that will also sort out Windows' problems. I've never run Windows on mine, so I don't know for sure.
[05:06] <boysen> im using ubuntu 10.4 i have to reconnect my wireless connection over and over again and asking me to type the password of my network any idea ?
[05:06] <SteveThing> bcgrown, it appears it uses some type of adobe plugin that isn't made for firefox
[05:06] <SteveThing> bcgrown, have you tried using another browser?
[05:06] <bcgrown> SteveThing:  no...  didn't think of that :)
[05:06] <Maahes_> pseudocube, otherwise you want to do locate cursor or find -name cursor and look for image files, to start
[05:07] <boysen>  disconnect my wireless connection
[05:07] <imizael> rww: i'd think so too.  the problems began when i tried the new firmware. i'd note that this card is apparently the low-power version of it.  should i still install the same package?
[05:07] <hunabq> hello
[05:07] <imizael> rww: the package i installed was firmware-b43-lpphy-installer.
[05:07] <bcgrown> SteveThing: doesn't work in Chrome either,  I just get a big grey screen at the bottom
[05:07] <rww> imizael: the card I have claims to be "LP-PHY", which I assume means low-power
[05:08] <hunabq> why use chomre
[05:08] <SteveThing> bcgrown, do you have a windows box to try it on?
[05:08] <jimtuv> akfaew From your discription I think what you want is to change your plymouth theme. That is the first animation that shows up when you boot up correct?
[05:08] <SteveThing> bcgrown, it appears to be a PDF type of plugin that is required
[05:08] <imizael> rww: yes, that is the card
[05:08] <bcgrown> SteveThing: yeah, if i HAVE to :)
[05:08] <hunabq> ?
[05:08] <Jordan_U> hunabq: Because when flash crashes in chrome it doesn't take the browser with it.
[05:08] <rww> imizael: but yeah. the b43 driver and the associated firmware have some issues on at least 10.04 and 10.10. It'll probably get sorted out eventually, but bcmwl (which doesn't need a firmware installation) is the way to go right now.
[05:09] <rww> although it's not free-software, which sucks.
[05:09] <hunabq> chrome seems like another ripoff
[05:09] <imizael> rww: so.. if i use the bcmwl software, it won't reload new firmware? because i believe that to be the issue.
[05:09] <hunabq> with a sweet face
[05:09] <jimtuv> akfaew To change themes from the KDE just enter this in the terminal and select a new theme. sudo update-alternatives –config default.plymouth
[05:09] <Jordan_U> rww: Won't help for current cards but it looks like broadcom finally stepped up and is releasing Free drivers.
[05:09] <rww> imizael: I think it will, but I have no idea where it gets it from. might be part of the module itself, iono.
[05:10] <imizael> rww: okay, i'll give it a shot.  thanks for the help, lets see if it works.
[05:10] <jimtuv> akfaew make sure to update when finished sudo update-initramfs  -u
[05:10] <rww> Jordan_U: free drivers with closed-source firmware. it's the same situation as b43 right now :(
[05:10] <boysen> any idea why my wireless got disconnected all the time and i i have to type the password
[05:11] <boysen> to type the password of my ssid
[05:11] <she_dyed> boysen: weak signal
[05:11] <hunabq> boysen >> how close are you to the accesspoint?
[05:11] <boysen> i have to idea
[05:11] <boysen> no idea
[05:12] <SteveThing> 10.10 x32 UNR, Atom based Netbook, Colsing an app makes screen go black for 10-30 seconds or hardlock... any ideas how to fix it?
[05:12] <boysen> when im only  using my laptop 10.4 ubuntu
[05:12] <mak_69> how do i upgrade adobe-flashplugin, i'm not able to view videos presently
[05:12] <Sikth> mak_69 did you install the ubuntu restricted extras?
[05:13] <she_dyed> SteveThing: try calling the app from terminal then close it, maybe theres messages repeating, if we're lucky
[05:13] <mak_69> sikth: nope, can u assist on how to do that
[05:13] <bcgrown> SteveThing: installing the bloated Adobe Reader made it work
[05:14] <she_dyed> lol
[05:14] <camer0n_> hi guys, i have a ubuntu server install problem.. can some one help please?
[05:14] <she_dyed> just toss it out camer0n_
[05:14] <bullgard4> What document does inform about the Natty development and release milestones?
[05:15] <mvrak> i upgraded to maverick and when i ssh to my system there is fancy information on the bottom of the terminal, what program is that? what is that called?  I want to install it on my lucid server >.<
[05:15] <rww> bullgard4: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/NattyReleaseSchedule
[05:15] <rww> mvrak: byobu
[05:15] <Sikth> mak_69, go to Applications>Accessories>terminal then once in the terminal type in 'sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras' without the''
[05:15] <fictive> is this the right place to ask for help? =)
[05:15] <rww> fictive: with Ubuntu? yes
[05:16] <fictive> alright. I'm having problems with my bootloader
[05:16] <camer0n_> I have been getting stuck at 75% when installing ubuntu server 10.10. it says "storing languages". i have pressed ctrl+alt+f2 and it says "Please press enter to activate this console." I have pressed enter and it freezes, and i cannot press ctrl+alt+f1,2,3...etc
[05:16] <MagusOTB> is there some strange way to install flash player with APT or should I just do it adobe's way?
[05:16] <rww> MagusOTB: generally, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[05:16] <excision> test
[05:16] <hunabq> 32 and 64 bit, beware
[05:17] <hunabq> you choose the right one
[05:17] <mvrak> rww: i installed byobu, i want it fancy on my lucid server like it is on my maverick desktop qq
[05:17] <fictive> had ubuntu and windows installed, working fine, then had to reinstall windows because I found a rootkit. now all I see when I boot up is the grub CLI, my usb bootable 10.10 only boots into grub recovery, but my unetbootin bootable usb with 10.04 boots into live
[05:18] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: so i went ahead and removed ureadahead and plymouth
[05:18] <fictive> I've searched google for a couple of hours now but I can't seem to fix it
[05:18] <rww> fictive: which version of Ubuntu?
[05:18] <rww> and Windows
[05:18] <fictive> 10.10 installed
[05:18] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: boot time is down to 370s
[05:18] <fictive> w7
[05:18] <mak_69> sikth: k, once i finish that i can upgrade using the command 'update apt-get adobe-flashpugin' right??
[05:18] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, damn.... did you try the other solutions? (new bios, different kernel, old kernel?)
[05:18] <bullgard4> rww: Thank you very much for your help.
[05:18] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: nope
[05:18] <Maahes_> given your machine specs, you *should* be having around a 15s boot time.
[05:18] <rww> fictive: try https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2 , section "Restore GRUB2 - Recovering from a Windows XP / Vista / 7 Reinstallation". I haven't done it myself, but it looks applicable.
[05:19] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: should be, but don't :(
[05:19] <rww> fictive: (it says 10.04 liveCD, but 10.10 would also work, as would a liveusb)
[05:19] <excision> Debian or Ubuntu webserver?
[05:19] <mvrak> is byobu running on top of bash or is it a separate shell
[05:19] <excision> Which is better?
[05:19] <Sikth> mak_69 I dont think you'll have to. Just close your browser, then reopen it and you should be good to go
[05:19] <camer0n_> I have been getting stuck at 75% when installing ubuntu server 10.10. it says "storing languages". i have pressed ctrl+alt+f2 and it says "Please press enter to activate this console." I have pressed enter and it freezes, and i cannot press ctrl+alt+f1,2,3...etc
[05:19] <rww> excision: whichever you prefer. I've used both; there isn't a whole lot of difference.
[05:20] <jschall> does anyone have insight on what causes my microphone to not work when the balance is centered?
[05:20] <camer0n_> i am installing via usb stick, onto a usb stick
[05:20] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, I mentioned trying those solutions because they're more likely to work, removing ureadahead and plymouth aren't really suggested, well plymouth doesn't matter so much, but ureadahead *should* result in a faster boot time
[05:20] <excision> hmm, thank you. I am using debian now, and I see that some people use an ubuntu.
[05:20] <excision> I was thinking about fedora.
[05:20] <mak_69> sikth: thank u for ur kind help. tc.
[05:20] <rww> excision: if you're more familiar with Debian, I'd use Debian
[05:20] <Maahes_> but it does tell us that neither ureadhead nor plymouth are the culprits
[05:20] <fictive> rww: I'll give it a go right now
[05:20] <MonthOLDpickle> I asked in winehq but how do I make my c drive bigger in wine?
[05:20] <Sikth> mak_69 np
[05:21] <excision> alright, that does make sense.
[05:21] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: still don't know where to find the low-latency kernel
[05:21] <Maahes_> You're pretty i/o bound and it corresponds fairly heavily to modprobe, which may mean some kernel module is screwing up, thus trying different kernels is useful
[05:21] <hunabq> isn't ubuntu based on debian?
[05:22] <rww> hunabq: yes, it is
[05:22] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, low-latency is what they used to call it, its been replaced by -rt, you can also try server, generic-pae and I forget the other one (virtual and ec2 aren't useful)
[05:22] <hunabq> thats why i use it
[05:22] <mvrak> how do i make Byobu start when I ssh in? instead of typing byobu once im there
[05:23] <hunabq> using debian ensures you dont have to learn different os'es
[05:23] <excision> talking about ssh.
[05:23] <fictive> rww: I'm getting a "/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?)."
[05:23] <hunabq> and their languages
[05:23] <fictive> at "sudo update-grub"
[05:23] <excision> I try to use ssh from school
[05:23] <she_dyed> camer0n_: the only thing i can think of is, open f2 ahead of time, dont wait for languages, and stay on that screen
[05:23] <excision> and it looks like port 22 is blocked.
[05:23] <excision> What is another good port to use?
[05:23] <rww> mvrak: I haven't used byobu much, but I believe that there's an option for that in the settings menu for byobu (F2 or something? I think it says the key combination on the screen)
[05:23] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: I still don't see a "-rt" anywhere
[05:23] <camer0n_> she_dyed, mmm will try... just annoying that it takes so long to get to that point
[05:23] <rww> excision: you can use any. I go with 2222, because it's easy to remember ;)
[05:24] <hayseus> port 666
[05:24] <she_dyed> camer0n_: do you have a cold one in the fridge
[05:24] <ps4> newby to xchat. i installed netbook 10.10 and the mouse hovers over unity icons, screen blanks out. help?
[05:24] <excision> 2222, ill have to try that
[05:24] <excision> and port 666 lol, thats what DOOM uses.
[05:24] <camer0n_> she_dyed, no :(
[05:25]  * she_dyed uploads a cole one to camer0n_
[05:25] <camer0n_> she_dyed, lol thanks :P
[05:25] <excision> In case port 2222 is blocked too, do you think I could use the https port?
[05:25] <gridbag> How do I access my Password Manager to delete an entry?
[05:25] <imizael> rww: i'll have you know you just solved my months-long wrestling match with b4312 drivers in linux :) now to see if you fixed my issues in windows
[05:25] <she_dyed> gl camer0n_
[05:25] <hunabq> just open the damn port
[05:25] <blakkheim> excision: or even port 80
[05:25] <boysen> fdora better tan ubuntu?
[05:25] <mvrak> rww: thanks i got it, it was obvious i just wasn't looking hard enough
[05:25] <boysen> than
[05:25] <rww> fictive: hrm. what are you booting from, liveusb? it might be getting confused by the liveusb system. I'm not familiar enough with it to help, unfortunately :(
[05:26] <excision> I have tried port 80 and apache has it already.
[05:26] <hayseus> d00d dont use 80 lol
[05:26] <fictive> rww: it's a live usb, yeah
[05:26] <Deigratia> any xiphos users here?\
[05:26] <fictive> rww: thanks for giving it a shot, though :)
[05:26] <rww> excision: I've used the HTTPS port. I got the occasional attempted HTTPS connection to my ssh server, which has fun log entries, but apart from that it was fine.
[05:26] <rww> Deigratia: I've used xiphos, yes.
[05:26] <rww> fictive: no problem. good luck :)
[05:27] <fictive> thanks
[05:27] <excision> so I think I will give https a go then. The stupid proxy server at school can't see that port I think
[05:27] <ps4> does anyone know issue with netbook unity interface problems? when mouse-over unity icons, screen blanks for a second and nothing happens but blink.
[05:27] <excision> I can use any secure(normally blocked) site.
[05:27] <imizael> rww: both linux and windows wireless solved in one fell swoop! i owe you a beer, friend :) thanks again.
[05:27] <fictive> rww: I have a netbook live cd here, should work with the desktop installed on the laptop, right?
[05:28] <rww> imizael: You're welcome. Glad we got it figured out; those things can be confusing :)
[05:28] <imizael> cheers, friend :)
[05:28] <Deigratia> odd thing, verse selection won't work...any ideas...
[05:28] <rww> fictive: yep. Terminal might be a little harder to find, but all the same commands should work.
[05:28] <ps4> fictive: i've installed netbook on desktops with success.
[05:29] <boysen> any idea what is the safest daemon for telnet server
[05:29] <Jordan_U> fictive: You probably forgot to chroot, or to mount /dev within the chroot.
[05:29] <rww> boysen: there is no safe telnet daemon, really. The protocol itself mandates sending passwords unencrypted, which means that anyone between you and your server can see them.
[05:29] <rww> boysen: Generally, we recommend using openssh instead.
[05:29] <boysen> daemon telnet server to install
[05:30] <fictive> Jordan_U: I did nothing of the sort :o could you give me a little guidance?
[05:30] <boysen> but using ssh i cannot connect with my eggy
[05:30] <Jordan_U> fictive: What guide were you following?
[05:30] <tmbg> I know it's not supported, but what does it take to get kqemu installed/working? ( my machine doesn't support VT so kvm isn't an option)
[05:30] <fictive> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Restore GRUB2 - Recovering from a Windows XP / Vista / 7 Reinstallation
[05:30] <fictive> this one, Jordan_U
[05:30] <ps4> :(
[05:30] <hunabq> the server should support ssh as well
[05:31] <ps4> anyone know of netbook unity issues?
[05:31] <Maahes_> http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/ <----where are the kernel image files located? I click on kernel, and nothing is there
[05:31] <rww> Deigratia: hrm, odd. I haven't experienced that. Occasionally, xiphos got confused and I had to close it and reopen it, but verse selection hasn't been an issue for me.
[05:31] <Jordan_U> fictive: Wow, that guide is just completely wrong.
[05:31] <MK13> I am trying to run a command from ssh... how can I make it so that it runs in the background so i can still use the ssh, but also that it keeps running after I close the connection?
[05:31] <mak_69> is it safe to install ubuntu restricted extras
[05:31] <hunabq> man ssh
[05:31] <fictive> Jordan_U: well that's great then! hehe, got any corrections I could make use of?
[05:32] <hunabq> hehehe
[05:32] <Maahes_> MK13, tmux or screen
[05:32] <rww> Jordan_U: hrm. If you find better instructions, can you edit it or poke me with them and I'll edit it?
[05:32] <Maahes_> MK13, I recommend tmux, its better than screen
[05:32] <mak_69> sikith: is it safe to install ubuntu restricted extras??
[05:32] <MK13> Maahes_, thanks
[05:33] <Mathuin> I have a box on 10.04 netbook that I cannot update to 10.04.1 LTS because that breaks it.  How can I update only the packages that changed without going all the way up to 10.04.1 LTS?

[05:33] <Jordan_U> rww: fictive: The best instructions for re-installing grub from a liveCD are these: http://grub.enbug.org/Grub2LiveCdInstallGuide
[05:33] <boysen> the only way i can connect to my bot is to use telnet
[05:33] <ps4> unity issue help?
[05:33] <mak_69> sikth: is it safe to install ubuntu restricted extras??
[05:34] <fictive> Jordan_U: thanks, I'll look into it :)
[05:34] <Sikth> mak_69 yes very
[05:34] <Jordan_U> fictive: You're welcome.
[05:34] <rww> Jordan_U: thanks
[05:34] <spacebug-> How can I put stuff in /etc/resolv.conf without NetworkManager overwriting it?

[05:36] <excision> In debian, how do I allow ssh connections to port 443
[05:36] <fuzzybunny69y> Hey everyone! I have a directory on my computer that has a whole bunch of subdirectories(and sometimes directories in those) and I want to move all the files in all the subdirectories and place them in the top level directory if that makes sense. Does anyone know how I would go about doing this?
[05:36] <excision> I edited the sshd_config
[05:36] <excision> I just have no clue how to actually allow it through the system.
[05:36] <blakkheim> excision: this isn't a debian support channel
[05:36] <Sikth> mak_69 read this if you are unsure. it explains why Ubuntu can't come with the extras http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu-restricted-extras
[05:36] <rww> excision: try #debian for Debian support ;)
[05:36] <excision> Ohh, thats right.
[05:37] <excision> I keep forgetting that Im on my ubuntu machine.
[05:37] <excision> Thank you
[05:37] <rww> (and #ubuntu for Ubuntu support; they don't support us either ;)
[05:37] <Jordan_U> rww: There is one small problem and one complete error in the Ubuntu wiki instructions. The small problem is that it installs grub using the utils of the live system, which may not be the same version as the installed system's grub (which can sometimes cause problems). The complete error is that update-grub, when run from the Live system, will try to update the live system's grub config (not the installed systems).
[05:37] <hunabq> edit your sshd_config
[05:37] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, evidently they dropped support for low-latency and -rt in maverick, that kinda sucks. Although if you added ubuntu-studio's repo you could get the -preempt kernel
[05:37] <Maahes_> I'm having a problem 10.04, I tried to upgrade my kernel, and it fails exit status 2, this is the output of my apt/log http://pastebin.com/aDYfbnPA
[05:37] <Jordan_U> rww: Using chroot solves both problems, but has the downside that it can't be used when the Live system is 32 bit and the installed system is 32 bit.
[05:37] <rww> Jordan_U: ah, hence the chroot. I see.
[05:38] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: rats
[05:38] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: i'm booting the server kernel right now
[05:39] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: it was doing fine until it decided to check the battery state
[05:39] <hayseus> ratz
[05:39] <hunabq> excision >> and change #Port 22 to Port 443 without the #sign
[05:39] <hunabq> then restart your ssh daemon via < etc/init.d/ssh restart
[05:39] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, after trying a different kernel and an old kernel you may look into shutting off ACPI support. It may make your boot a lot faster, but it'll kill your battery life.
[05:40] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: i don't have a battery
[05:40] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, then it just affects suspend and hibernate I believe.
[05:41] <Jordan_U> rww: Thank you for actually updating the wiki documentation BTW. I always mean to do it myself but usually put it off because getting the formatting right is tedious :)
[05:41] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: i booted the server kernel... but i can't find the X display
[05:42] <gustavderdrache> oh, bah, stupid nvidia modules
[05:42] <fictive> haha! Jordan_U, I LOVE you, man
[05:42] <fictive> thank you so much for your help, Jordan_U and rww =)
[05:43] <rww> Jordan_U: ah, looks like we missed something. The very top of w.u.c/Grub2 links to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 , which appears to accurately describe the chroot method.
[05:43] <rww> Jordan_U: I'm checking to make sure everything on the help.ubuntu.com page is on the wiki.ubuntu.com page, then will redirect wiki to help.
[05:44] <rww> Jordan_U: sorry, everything on the wiki.u.c page is on the help.u.c page...
[05:44] <camer0n_> hi guys.. if i have console access while an install is happening.. can i skip out part of the install i know will fail?
[05:44] <Genieliu> which command do i need to use to unistall KDE?
[05:44] <rww> Genieliu: and get back to GNOME Ubuntu?
[05:45] <Genieliu> i have gnome yet
[05:45] <rww> !puregnome | Genieliu
[05:45] <Genieliu> rww: just want to remove all the KDE environment
[05:48] <ilovefairuz> Genieliu: how did  you install it
[05:48] <gustavderdrache> Maahes_: no luck getting it to boot faster with the server kernel
[05:49] <Maahes_> gustavderdrache, try an older version of the -generic kernel
[05:49] <monty_hall> How do I enable/disable desktop effects in unbuntu.  In freebsd & gnome/compiz, there were a whole slew of effects that I can enable/disable.  I cannot seem to find an app to enable these effects.
[05:49] <monty_hall> I only get none,some,custom.

[05:53] <wolfric> interesting...
[05:53] <giantpune> hi, im looking for the source code for the "disk utility" that comes packaged with ubuntu.  does anybody know where this would be?
[05:54] <Hrimfaxi> does anyone know a good sysinfo script for xchat?
[05:54] <wolfric> did he actually part? (not kicked)
[05:54] <Mathuin> Hrimfaxi: the first step is identifying which package the "disk utility" comes with.  I don't know which one it is.
[05:54] <rww> giantpune: the package name is "gnome-disk-utility"; to get the source code for a package, you'd do "apt-get source gnome-disk-utility"
[05:54] <Gnea> wolfric: he was removed
[05:55] <Hrimfaxi> Mathuin, I think you meant to direct that to wolfric
[05:55] <Hrimfaxi> lol
[05:55] <giantpune> sweet.  and where does it put the source when i do that rww ?
[05:55] <rww> giantpune: the current directory
[05:55] <ilovefairuz> giantpune: make a new dir, cd to it and execute the command
[05:55] <Mathuin> Hrimfaxi: giantpune actually, whoops. :-)
[05:55] <wolfric> i didn't realise you could force someone to part unless they were a server op?
[05:56] <Hrimfaxi> oh, oops, xD
[05:56] <rww> wolfric: freenode has a /remove command that regular ops can use.
[05:56] <Mathuin> Wasn't you!  Sorry about that. :-)
[05:56] <rww> wolfric: it removes them from the channel, not the network.
[05:56] <wolfric> rww: why not a simple kick?
[05:56] <rww> wolfric: because some clients autorejoin on kick
[05:56] <wars> aha
[05:56] <Mathuin> Looks like this "upgrade" is gonna take forever, and I bet it won't work. :-P
[05:57] <wolfric> i didn't even know irc support forcing part. nice to know
[05:57] <wolfric> supported*
[05:58] <giantpune> really, i just need a way to get a filesystem from a given path.  something like "df -T /path/to/some/file"  except that when this spits out a filesystem, it doesnt always work for mounted NTFS drives
[05:58] <wars> have china people?
[05:58] <giantpune> does anybody know where the disc utility gets its information?
[05:58] <wars> my friend
[05:58] <rww> !cn | wars
[05:58] <ilovefairuz> giantpune: /proc and /dev
[05:59] <wars> thans
[05:59] <wars> thanks rww
[05:59] <giantpune> lol.  thanks ilovefairuz.  but theres like 5000 files in there.  and i cnt read the /dev/sd... ones without root
[06:00] <rww> giantpune: what sort of output are you looking for? the filesystem format, the /dev/ node for the partition, the mountpoint?
[06:00] <ilovefairuz> giantpune: are you trying to find which mount point/partition a file belongs to?
[06:00] <giantpune> all a care about is the filesystem.
[06:01] <giantpune> so i want to give a filename and get back a filesystem
[06:01] <rww> giantpune: What I'm asking is, what do you mean by "a filesystem"?
[06:01] <giantpune> i want the name of the filesystem... fat32, ntfs... ext4
[06:03] <rww> giantpune: try "stat -fc %T /path/to/file.ext"
[06:03] <h00k> I am having an issue with console-kit-daemon on ubuntu-server 10.10 and I'm not sure what's going on. Under top, Time+ for console-kit-daemon says 56365051h

[06:14] <earthshade> Is still on the quest to find printer drivers :)
[06:14] <Coder365> so im having trouble getting the 'at' command to work right. 'echo "touch test.txt" | at (time)' works, while 'echo "amarok -t" | at (time)' doesn't. thoughts?
[06:15] <ilovefairuz> earthshade: installing packages is still slow?
[06:15] <earthshade> ilovefairuz: No the drivers arent supplied by canon for ubuntu for my printer
[06:15] <earthshade> ilovefairuz: I checked their site
[06:15] <os2mac> Any idea why I can't get Unity to work in a Virtualbox Guest enviroment.?
[06:16] <ilovefairuz> earthshade: they don't have to be, what the model number?
[06:16] <earthshade> Ip1700
[06:16] <earthshade> ilovefairuz: But I read that you can use the ubuntu drivers for a similar printer and it will work
[06:16] <ilovefairuz> os2mac: ask in unity's support forums or channel ?
[06:16] <Renderspec> is there a way to set up the firewall in ubuntu to only allow only selected software, for example Firefox only, to access the http 80 port? Does anybody know if it can be achieved with firestarter firewall?
[06:17] <nesto1000> Sup you guys
[06:17] <hayseus> hi
[06:17] <nesto1000> Can anyone help me out with a little mouse problem that I'm having?
[06:17] <coz_> Renderspec,  I do not..but  if no one can answer here  at this point... try ##linux channel
[06:17] <ilovefairuz> Renderspec: that default outgoing policy should be 'deny' and then add a rule to allow firefox
[06:17] <earthshade> nesto1000: I only do rat infestations. Sorry.
[06:18] <nesto1000> lol
[06:18] <ilovefairuz> Renderspec: or use the default firewall that comes with ubuntu, check: man ufw
[06:18] <Mathuin> Huh.  This time, it worked.
[06:18] <Renderspec> ilovefairuz, I know how to set the port but how to make a rule to set the Firefox binary?

[06:18] <earthshade> nesto1000: :D
[06:18] <nesto1000> ok hold on
[06:19] <ilovefairuz> Renderspec: it won't be specific to firefox, any thing communicating on port 80 will pass
[06:19] <Mathuin> I really hope this works.  It'll be awesome if I can repurpose this old Eee PC 700 as a security camera. :-P
[06:19] <ech0Asus> anyone know if firesheep has a linux port yet?
[06:20] <ilovefairuz> Renderspec: try SELinux if you're looking for that kind of locked down configuration but good luck with that!
[06:20] <hayseus> lul
[06:20] <Renderspec> ilovefairuz, thanks.
[06:20] <nesto1000> I have a problem with my touch pad. I'm using 10.10, and the windows drivers for this laptop are Elantech drivers and not the alps or symp ones...  they worked fine on 10.04
[06:20] <nesto1000> Oh and the problem is that it's not functioning like its supposed to
[06:21] <earthshade> nesto1000: Your lucky drivers are usually crap on 10.04

[06:30] <nesto1000> I have a problem with my touch pad. I'm using 10.10, and the windows drivers for this laptop are Elantech drivers and not the alps or symp ones...  they worked fine on 10.04 and the problem is that it's not functioning like its supposed to.
[06:30] <nesto1000> btw im not stupid and tried installing windows drivers on ubutnu...
[06:30] <MonthOLDpickle> the partition is at max
[06:30] <MonthOLDpickle> it says its 20gb
[06:30] <MonthOLDpickle> I been trying to fix this in winehq
[06:31] <MonthOLDpickle> but its reporting I onyl have 200mb drive
[06:31] <n2diy> I have a chance to sell one of my Ubuntu boxes, the dude would like me to give him the box, and then pay me on pay day.. Can I set up the box so his password expires in a week, or something like that?
[06:31] <ikonia> n2diy: not really
[06:31] <ilovefairuz> n2diy: he can easily reset it
[06:31] <nesto1000> any help you guys?

[06:32] <ikonia> n2diy: not really -
[06:32] <nesto1000> i found something on the net but i dont understand it
[06:32] <bradg> n2diy: Why not just give it to him when he actually has cash? What benefit is there for you to give it to him early?
[06:32] <ilovefairuz> n2diy: man passwd

[06:35] <ikonia> abhinav_singh: what ?
[06:36] <MonthOLDpickle> Man I can't figure out why it says 200mb when I have 20gb free
[06:36] <jasa> Hmm, come to wonder around, they have not added that of those 3G providers an label on top of products, you might not be able to use some internet services with those of.
[06:37] <nesto1000> also, another question that you guys might be able to answer is... Why does the 64bit Ubuntu have amd on it? Is it because it only works correctly on amd based machines, or because amd came up with the 64bit instructions?
[06:37] <jasa> Well just moments ago put on, havent checked if proper places on at housing areas could be found.
[06:37] <darkf> nesto1000: amd came up with x86_64
[06:37] <darkf> hence amd64
[06:37] <jasa> But from main things it's from Wimax 30 ms to hdspa of min at 90+ and usually 200+, partially some seconds.
[06:37] <cutout> how can I assigne domains and subdomains on ubuntu? (i.e www.myserver.com and mail.myserver.com) on the same machine?
[06:38] <nesto1000> that didn't really answer my question darkf
[06:38] <hayseus> yes it does
[06:38] <darkf> nesto1000: I confirmed your suspicion that it's because amd came up with the instruction set, so yes, I did answer it
[06:38] <jasa> As for Warcraft3 the thing went on getting kicked from automated hosting bots, cause of having bit too high latency ...
[06:38] <ilovefairuz> cutout: the same A record (contain the IP address) in your DNS management interface
[06:39] <AcidBarrel> i love ubuntu
[06:39] <ilovefairuz> cutout: containing **
[06:39] <AcidBarrel> i use ubuntu everyday to watch pr0n
[06:39] <nesto1000> it sounded like u were correcting me on something or other darkf... but uh ok
[06:39] <IdleOne> !guidelines > AcidBarrel
[06:39] <cutout> ilovefairuz so it is not related to ubuntu I can do it from firewall or something?
[06:40] <AcidBarrel> did i do something wrong?
[06:40] <IdleOne> AcidBarrel: Please stick to support.
[06:40] <jasa> AcidBarrel, have to admit the media playback functioning is far better than on Windows side with proper players of. = ) Still main thing would land on finishing that of some coding things but yeah. -.-
[06:40] <ilovefairuz> cutout: you *could* divert your DNS management to a DNS server (like bind or dnsmasq) on your ubuntu machine, but for a simple configuration like this, A records are just fine
[06:40] <AcidBarrel> oh i see
[06:40] <AcidBarrel> sorry gents
[06:41] <nesto1000> is there a way to manually install drivers on ubuntu?
[06:41] <cutout> ilovefairuz: OK thanks

[06:42] <AcidBarrel> guys have you heard of the make love command? how come mine doesn't work?
[06:42] <ilovefairuz> earthshade: nesto1000: not that familiar with Xorg, you could check the /var/log/Xorg.0.log and see if there are any relevant errors

[06:43] <ilovefairuz> !ot | AcidBarrel

[06:46] <n2diy> AcidBarrel: your friend played a joke on you?
[06:47] <IdleOne> AcidBarrel: cuz your friend is probably a funny guy. Please read our channle !guidelines.
[06:47] <i5noc> Guest2683 - if you don't see your device there, youve real issues, if you do then its a driver issue or something else. which we'll address at that point i spose :)

[07:02] <ilovefairuz> nesto1000:  ^
[07:02] <rabbit_kan> ilovefairuz,thank you very much, I will try it.
[07:03] <nesto1000> thank you for you help ilovefairuz
[07:03] <nesto1000> it somewhat made it better
[07:03] <AcidBarrel> is it possible when i exit any commands or... like binaries in ubuntu for it to say END OF LINE
[07:03] <nesto1000> but i guess that i can deal with it...
[07:04] <AcidBarrel> i just think it'd be neat
[07:04] <ilovefairuz> nesto1000: what's with it?
[07:04] <MagusOTB> How do I make empathy IM make sounds when I get a message?
[07:05] <nesto1000> I can't right click with the 3 finger touch like on 10.04 or windows ilovefairuz

[07:07] <bobthemilkman> AcidBarrel: export PS1="END OF LINE\\n\\[\\e]0;\\u@\\h: \\w\\a\\]${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\\u@\\h:\\w\\$"
[07:07] <bobthemilkman> Type that into bash and then see how long it takes until it drives you crazy.
[07:08] <doc|home> anyone know how I can get a volume icon back into my notification area? I accidentally deleted it :/
[07:08] <bobthemilkman> Actually, better command: export PS1="END OF LINE\\n$PS1"
[07:08] <AcidBarrel> sweet thanks guys
[07:08] <nesto1000> bye ilovefairuz, thanks for all that you've done... I'm heading to bed now...
[07:08] <AcidBarrel> i owe you, better get my knee pads out ;)
[07:09] <ilovefairuz> nesto1000: you're welcome
[07:09] <sobersabre> hi.
[07:09] <bobthemilkman> AcidBarrel: That technically puts it at the start of each command prompt, not at the end of the previous command.
[07:09] <ilovefairuz> hello sobersabre
[07:09] <bobthemilkman> But in bash, that is only different for the first command.
[07:09] <sobersabre> how can I recreate the default structure of /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ddebs.list ?
[07:09] <sobersabre> (on meerkat)
[07:10] <bobthemilkman> You can run: echo export PS1="END OF LINE\\$PS1" >> ~/.bashrc
[07:10] <bobthemilkman> To make it permanent, but I'd advise against that
[07:10] <bobthemilkman> Woops,  echo export PS1="END OF LINE\\n\\$PS1" >> ~/.bashrc
[07:10] <ilovefairuz> sobersabre: /usr/share/doc/apt/examples/sources.list	
[07:10] <JohnTeddy> Does all that /etc/network/interfaces and dhclient3 wlan0 stuff work anymore?
[07:10] <JohnTeddy> Or is that deprecated now?
[07:10] <n2diy> My box is acting weird, the shutdown window appears on its own, and sometimes I have to cancel it numerous times?
[07:10] <sobersabre> ilovefairuz: good idea...
[07:10] <ilovefairuz> JohnTeddy: why would it be deprecated?
[07:11] <AcidBarrel> bobthemilkman i already did it
[07:11] <AcidBarrel> :/
[07:11] <bobthemilkman> Well, enjoy your END OF LINE message.
[07:11] <bobthemilkman> just run gedit ~/.bashrc and remove the line if/when you get tired of it.
[07:11] <JohnTeddy> ilovefairuz: I don't know, some new networking software, under network manager or something? I don't know what the new software is.
[07:11] <jenkinbr> wouldn't it be more intuitive to have it read END OF FILE'
[07:11] <AcidBarrel> kk i love tron so ill never get bored of it.
[07:12] <ilovefairuz> JohnTeddy: yes network manager is installed by default but you may elect to remove it and use the  interfaces file
[07:12] <JohnTeddy> ilovefairuz: I can connect to my access point with the gui NM fine. I am trying the command line, and it doesn't work. I have no encryption, WEP or WPA. I do 'sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid linksys; sudo dhclient3 wlan0; and it fails. It repeats the DHCP Discovery several times, and doesn't hand me an ip.
[07:13] <JohnTeddy> ilovefairuz: I see, so they can't both be used?
[07:14] <ilovefairuz> JohnTeddy: NM will take over the interface if it thinks it should, anyhow, check your wirless network in: iwlist scan   .. perhaps you need to change the channel
[07:18] <AcidBarrel> i just invented an mmo, called runescape and wanted to play it. now that ive created it. is there anyway ubuntu security solutions can assist my product
[07:19] <earthshade> AcidBarrel: WTF?
[07:19] <Shad0wZ> too obvious.
[07:20] <hyperstream> Hey guys, im having issues with the latest desktop (32bit) image via ubuntu.com, it seems if i burn to disc, or create a usb startup, on all 3 of my machines(2 desktops + 1 laptop) - it attempts to boot, i see a message about SYSLINUX 3.64- Debian... then it says, Unknown keyword in Configuration file. Then just sits on boot:
[07:20] <hyperstream> Is there an error in the latest .iso perhaps?
[07:20] <ilovefairuz> hyperstream: did you verify the ISO before burning?
[07:20] <molded> hi all, I have an interesting problem with paginate.  I need to paginate two record sets on one page and I am not sure if paginate can handle it.  To make it even more interesting, I need to paginate two record sets for the  same model
[07:20] <ilovefairuz> !verify | hyperstream
[07:20] <hyperstream> ilovefairuz, ill do that now, thanks
[07:21] <molded> oops sorry wrong channel
[07:22] <hyperstream> ilovefairuz, yes its an exact match
[07:23] <ubuntu> ,kl{
[07:23] <ilovefairuz> hyperstream: verify the cd, use /dev/cdrom instead of the ISO file
[07:25] <tamir> i want to cube Desktop kde 10.04 but it is not activated effects??
[07:26] <ilovefairuz> hyperstream: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/syslinux/+bug/608382 although it's reported for USB only, the CD should work fine (if burned well)
[07:26] <bobthemilkman> tamir: Download ccsm.
[07:27] <bobthemilkman> tamir: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
v ccsm??
[07:27] <tamir> yes i install
[07:27] <tamir> ed
[07:27] <bobthemilkman> Now hit alt-f2 and run "ccsm"
[07:27] <bobthemilkman> Then feel free to customize all the desktop effects you could ever dream of.
[07:28] <bobthemilkman> This is assuming that your gnome/KDE have desktop effects enabled.
 i  configred  then noticed not activate cube desktop and some some efects
[07:28] <bobthemilkman> You'll want "rotate cube" and "desktop cube"
[07:29] <bobthemilkman> then ctrl-alt-left mouse click should be able to rotate your desktop cube.
[07:30] <tamir> ty
[07:30] <tamir> i ll try again
[07:31] <seth_g> i have an asus mb, it has dual pci-e -- one pci-e is geforce 8400 GS, the other is geforce 9400 gt. why oh why does only one ever show up? always as 1:0.0 from lspci. the one in the primary (blue) slot is the one that works.
[07:32] <linux_hacks> Hello Guys
[07:32] <linux_hacks> since few days, I am having problem with my ethernet with slow or no network connection
[07:32] <petsounds> talking about desktop effects, is the nvidia driver in maverick still beta? it's laggy (at least for me)
[07:32] <linux_hacks> could some one tell me what I should be doing?
[07:33] <linux_hacks> it is frequently dropping
[07:33] <seth_g> petsounds, is that an open source one?
[07:35] <petsounds> seth_g, no its the proprietary one
[07:36] <linux_hacks> hello
[07:36] <seth_g> well forget my earlier question until i try this new driver
[07:36] <seth_g> there is one on nv site from oct 13
[07:38] <tuyet> ok
[07:38] <MagusOTB> linux_hacks: tried a different cable?
[07:39] <steevo> where are the screensavers at in ubuntu
[07:39] <Jordan_U> steevo: System > Preferences > Screensaver
[07:40] <Jordan_U> steevo: You can install additional screensavers from Applications > Ubuntu Software Center.
[07:40] <Winkie> hey, my camera flash has two partitions on it, and i want to try and prevent one of those partitions from automounting
[07:40] <steevo> Jordan_U:No. I'm trying to find the screensavers in a file so I can use them as the skydome in the compizfusion
[07:40] <Winkie> any idea how to go about this?
[07:41] <petsounds> also when playing audio/video files pulseaudio uses all my cpu resources. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2075532/Gallery/GILWAYS/Screenshot-1.png
[07:41] <Simon-MPFH> I upgraded from 8.04 desktop to 10.04 at the weekend and then onto 10.10 but it has broken Thunderbird ("upgraded" from 2 to 3)
[07:42] <Jordan_U> steevo: Does compiz support xscreensaver hacks?
[07:42] <Simon-MPFH> It is slow even after turning of indexing and often greys out while moving a message from one IMAP folder to another
[07:42] <blahsphemer> evince is unable to open a .ps file. it says access is denied
[07:42] <blahsphemer> but I am the owner
[07:42] <Simon-MPFH> Is this a known problem or have I done something wrong?
[07:42] <blahsphemer> and the access permissions says, I can read and write the file
[07:42] <steevo> Jordan_U:there is a animate skydome feature. I thought I'd give it a try,but I don't know where the gl matrix screensaver is on file
[07:43] <Schuyler> I know I'm going to regret asking this, but where does the Ubuntu rubygems package look for gems?
[07:43] <Jordan_U> steevo: /usr/lib/xscreensaver/, but I'm not optamistic that it will work the way you expect.
[07:43] <Schuyler> I upgraded to Maverick from ... Hardy, and the gems I have in /var/lib/gems/1.8 which worked great before the upgrade can now not be found by 'irb -rubygems'
[07:44] <acacios> XRender_AlphaBlend not supported - XRENDER headers were missing at compile time
[07:44] <acacios> what should i donow?

[07:47] <mostafa> does anyone know why no one has answered my question yet http://drupal.org/node/952822?
[07:47] <mostafa> is there a way to find out if people have read it?
[07:47] <dyllan> Hi all.
[07:47] <acacios> who can help me?
[07:47] <acacios>  XRender_AlphaBlend not supported - XRENDER headers were missing at compile time
[07:48] <acacios> i don't konw what should i do now
[07:48] <dyllan> I am running Ubuntu 10.10 without installing from the LiveCD, (boot up from USB Flash Drive), I want to format /dev/hda but the OS doesnt seen /dev/hda at all. Any ideas? - thanks
[07:49] <Jordan_U> dyllan: Devices are now named /dev/sdX, even if they're IDE.
[07:49] <windowskilla> what is the off-topic channel for this channel
[07:50] <mrec> can anyone advice a small usable email server for linux which is not too difficult to configure? (sending/receiving mails from the internet with password authentication)?
[07:50] <dyllan> Jordan_U: Brilliant, thank you!
[07:50] <Jordan_U> dyllan: It worked? How do you set it up specifically?
[07:51] <acacios> mrec:you mean  evolution?
[07:51] <mrec> acacios: for evolution, I need a server
[07:51] <windowskilla> mrec : sendmail?
[07:51] <wolfric> mrec: don't think there is any real simple one.
[07:52] <mrec> exim4 has a weird bad documented configuration
[07:52] <acacios> mrec:ok.
[07:52] <wolfric> mrec: depends what you mean by simple. There isn't going to be a next next new user set password now online window in linux
[07:52] <dyllan> Jordan_U: Yup, well im doing something pretty weird. I only have a 2GB HDD and I want to install Gentoo Minimal on that HDD, then attach a USB and install Gentoo on the USB (8GB).
[07:52] <petsounds> ok imma repeat my question. is the nvidia driver in maverick still beta? its laggy, so i need to go back to lucid. and still in maverick how can i fix pulseaudio that uses all my cpu resources when playing audio and video files? screenshot http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2075532/Gallery/GILWAYS/Screenshot-1.png
[07:52] <Jordan_U> dyllan: Sorry, I had you mixed up with steevo.
[07:53] <dyllan> Jordan_U: So I need to format /dev/hda (which you kindly pointed out is seen as /dev/sda), then install gentoo minimal on /dev/hda, then reboot the device and it will boot up into gentoo minimal from the 2GB, then plug in my USB Flash of 8GB and proceed to install gentoo onto the 8GB.
[07:53] <dyllan> Jordan_U: np ;)
[07:54] <DtatchD> is there any way to make .html files open as a default in gedit rather than firefox?
[07:55] <Jordan_U> DtatchD: Right click > Properties > Open With (tab at the top).
[07:56] <DtatchD> Jordan_U, yes but my question is in regards to avoiding that
[07:56] <Serges> Всем привет
[07:56] <Jordan_U> DtatchD: Then you'll have to clarify what you're trying to accomplish.
[07:57] <Jordan_U> !ru | Serges
[07:57] <DtatchD> Excuse me I meant to say .xml files so I can double click to open with gedit as opposed to firefox
[07:58] <DtatchD> thank you though you did answer my question
[08:06] <Good_D_ay> Hello friends, I am using ubuntu for one of our product. I want to know about user space processes. Is it there that one user space application in case halted can cause system to halt ? Do one user space process can access other user space process undesiredly ?
[08:08] <rww> Good_D_ay: Two fun facts: 1) A fair number of #ubuntu people are also in #debian. 2) Lying to avoid being told to go to the correct channel is a bad idea.
[08:11] <Good_D_ay> rww: Thank you, I got your saying. I am new to IRC and I am not aware of it.
[08:13] <_Shade_> hi there
[08:13] <mickster04> 1~eave not really here
[08:14] <_Shade_> I just installed unity to check out how it works, and now when I removed it - i've lost my gnome panel, desktop icons, everything
[08:15] <_Shade_> what can I do to bring it back?
[08:15] <mandrova> exit
[08:16] <coz_> _Shade_,   try logging out  then log in but before you hit enter  look at the sessions and make sure you go into gnome session
[08:16] <mandrova> er nvm :o
[08:16] <mandrova> so i whenever i do apt-get update and upgrade it says there's no new updates, but my openssh version is 4.7
[08:16] <mandrova> why does it say no updates when something is so out of date?
[08:17] <coz_> mandrova,  try  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[08:17] <uLinux> hello
[08:17] <Akshitb> hello
[08:17] <mustkill> my notebook benq S72 under Ub 10.10 soud card can not word
[08:17] <mandrova> coz_: same story. no new updates
[08:18] <mustkill> someone can help me?
[08:18] <uLinux> im trying to get out of console with ctrl+alt+f7 but its saying Checking battery State
[08:18] <uLinux> grrrrrrrr
[08:18] <mandrova> plus its not like it says packages waiting but not updated, there are no new updates
[08:18] <uLinux> yeah sudo restart gdm works but..
[08:18] <mandrova> i'm using 8.10
[08:18] <Akshitb> Which one is Better?? Ubuntu or Lubuntu
[08:19] <uLinux> Akshitb: it/s the same thing except Ubuntu comes with more packages
[08:19] <Akshitb> Ok
[08:19] <uLinux> Lubuntu is lighter
[08:20] <Akshitb> uLinux - It is but i read its also has less functionality
[08:20] <mandrova> does ubuntu use backports or something which would lead to security updates occuring without full version upgrades?
[08:20] <toshiba_> 这里面都有没有中国人的哇？
[08:20] <Akshitb> and some software doesn't work fine with it
[08:20] <uLinux> well Ubuntu is the most complete
[08:20] <mustkill> 有的
[08:20] <Zeu5> hi there, i am at my devt machine. I ssh into my server. From my server, i am trying to do a git pull from a public repo like projectlocker. I am always prompted for my ssh passphrase. i followed this but i am still prompted. please advise.http://help.github.com/working-with-key-passphrases/
[08:20] <toshiba_> 哈哈
[08:20] <Zeu5> this is my config file in ~/.ssh  http://gist.github.com/646426

[08:21] <uLinux> toshiba_: /join #ubuntu-cn
[08:21] <uLinux> brb
[08:21] <mustkill> there no support.
[08:21] <blakkheim> if you can ask in english, you can ask here

[08:22] <Guest512> sda
[08:22] <mustkill> ubottu ,i like here although i am chinese.
[08:23] <Spandi> Hello I wonder if anybody could help me. I had installed Ubuntu Karmic Kaola version on Windows Vista. It ran very well for some days and all of a sudden it just wouldn't boot. It shows up some few commands to choose from and thats all. I cant get into UBUNTU. Has anyone faced this problem before ?
[08:23] <[thor]> Spandi: what choices are you given?
[08:24] <Guest35627> .
[08:25] <Spandi> Thor let me just get all the choices... I will have to log out and get into another machine so that I can let you know
[08:26] <[thor]> is it something like a list of linux-generic-pae-???-???-???
[08:26] <[thor]> as well as "safe modes" ?
[08:26] <n8w> hey
[08:26] <peter_> salut
[08:26] <Spandi> One second I need to be precise than waste your time..
[08:26] <seidos> what does pae stand for?
[08:26] <hgb> Hi.  I have a laptop here running ubuntu where wireless don't work.  The 'enable wireless' item in nm-applet is greyed out.
[08:27] <[thor]> Spandi: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y71/Cocasoca/grub.jpg
[08:27] <[thor]> like that?
[08:27] <hgb> It's Ubuntu 9.04, the wlan chip is Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless WiFi Link 5300
[08:27] <obs3rv3r> !pae > seidos
[08:27] <hgb> Any ideas?
[08:27] <n8w> im runin 10.10 n everytime the kpackage searches for updates it gets stock in my sys tray...when i close it down,the plasma crashes....
[08:27] <hgb> Guess I should upgrade, but it's a work laptop I'm just borrowing
[08:27] <seidos> obs3rv3r, thanks
[08:28] <Gnea> !9.04 | hgb
[08:29] <tecoholic> hgb: check wether any hardware switch is there and make sure its on
[08:29] <Spandi> Hello Thor yes this is the one except mine is on VISTA
[08:30] <hgb> tecoholic: Yeah, I've thought of that.  Didn't find one though.
[08:30] <hgb> ...
[08:30] <hgb> tecoholic: Until now!  Got it.
[08:30] <hgb> Thanks.
[08:30] <Jordan_U> hgb: You should still tell the company to upgrade. Right now it's not quite a security risk as it hasn't been EOL long, but it will be.
[08:31] <tecoholic> Its ok..
[08:31] <hgb> Jordan_U: Yeah, will do.  Thanks.
[08:31] <hgb> Can I easily upgrade with apt?
[08:32] <tecoholic> hgb: you should feel easier with the update manager
[08:32] <hgb> tecoholic: Okay.  Will look at it.  Breakfast now, I think.  Thkisw
[08:32] <hgb> err..  Thanks.
[08:32] <tecoholic> ya will do
[08:33] <[thor]> Spandi: that is GRUB, you may be able to use the recovery mode get your boot back in order
[08:33] <[thor]> !grub
[08:33] <[thor]> !grub2 | Spandi
[08:34] <Zeu5> hi there, i am at my devt machine. I ssh into my server. From my server, i am trying to do a git pull from a public repo like projectlocker. I am always prompted for my ssh passphrase. i followed this but i am still prompted. please advise.http://help.github.com/working-with-key-passphrases/
[08:34] <Zeu5> my server is a ubuntu machine.
[08:34] <obs3rv3r> Zeu5: did you put passphrases while generating those keys ?
[08:36] <Zeu5> obs3rv3r: yes i did. and i am able to successfully do a git pull after being prompted for passphrase
[08:36] <narcislinux> hi
[08:37] <Zeu5> obs3rv3r: i want to avoid being prmpted for passphrase everytime
[08:38] <obs3rv3r> Zeu5: I don't have any passphrases in the keys I generate for github.
[08:38] <Zeu5> obs3rv3r: so that means i am doing it wrong?
[08:39] <narcislinux> how can work with ubuntu software center and synaptic at the same time ?
[08:39] <obs3rv3r> Zeu5: Its upto you. You can do as suggested in that url you referred to. or not have a password for the ssh key .
[08:39] <Zeu5> okay. the problem i have is that my ssh-agent is not working thereforecausing me to enter the passphrase everytime i do a git pull
[08:40] <Zeu5> obs3rv3r: did you set up a ssh-agent as suggested in the same article?
[08:40] <obs3rv3r> Zeu5: No I just did not put any passwords in my key with github.
[08:40] <Zeu5> obs3rv3r: i see. thank you.
[08:40] <Zeu5> hi there, i am at my devt machine. I ssh into my server. From my server, i am trying to do a git pull from a public repo like projectlocker. I am always prompted for my ssh passphrase. i followed this but i am still prompted. please advise.http://help.github.com/working-with-key-passphrases/

[08:54] <anhtrinh> have a question about ssh
[08:54] <anhtrinh> any know please help
[08:54] <anhtrinh> when i do "ssh localhost export"
[08:54] <anhtrinh> it doesn't show all the environment variables
[08:54] <anhtrinh> form bashrc
[08:54] <mrko> git__: sorry...  upgraded with "sudo do-release-upgrade -d" and now it wont start. GRUB loads fine, but after that it fails to find any disk to boot from and I'm dropped to BusyBox. Managed to take a look in GRUBs menu and the only options are to boot 8.04, no 10.04 options available.. me thinks something went bad during the upgrade
[08:55] <hyperstream> How does one install the server edition when they only have USB keyboards?
[08:55] <hyperstream> Cant choose english from the menu.
[08:55] <anhtrinh> hyperstream, can u use tab
[08:55] <anhtrinh> ?
[08:56] <hyperstream> anhtrinh, no keys are registering(they do at cmos/bios area
[08:56] <anhtrinh> ohh
[08:57] <anhtrinh> i believe USB keyboard should be fine, i did once with Ubuntu Server edition 7.04
[08:57] <anhtrinh> perhaps it changes
[08:58] <hyperstream> Got a roll up keyboard(zipp) HP keyboard, and a MS keyboard all USB, bugger
[08:58] <Guest43697> ~~~
[08:58] <Guest43697> Hello everyone
[08:58] <anhtrinh> hi
[08:58] <hyperstream> Trying to get a ubuntu os (desktop/server) on this old P4 2.8GHz, looks like i might have to attempt another distro at this point
[08:58] <anhtrinh> anyone know SSH?
[08:59] <anhtrinh> "ssh localhost export" doesn't show the same result as export
[08:59] <anhtrinh> ?
[08:59] <hyperstream> The desktop image, boots- can use keyboard, but if i select anything other than Check Memory, it just sits there loading for a long period, screen switches off after 10 mins of loading :/
[09:02] <n2diy>  I just built a 10.04 box, is there an "easy" way to clone my 8.04 box to the 10.04 box over the LAN?
[09:04] <n2diy> hyperstream: have you tried any of the boot options for the install?
[09:07] <hyperstream> n2diy, yes spent a long while going through the process
[09:07] <anhtrinh> SSH
[09:07] <anhtrinh> ?
[09:08] <hyperstream> Did i try sshing into the box?
[09:08] <samtihen> Ok, so, I'm using 10.10. Everything was fine. I use Chrome and Firefox. Now, for some reason, I decided to install "kde-standard". Booted into KDE once, went back to Gnome. Now, fonts inside of Chrome and Firefox windows aren't anti-aliased. They were before.
[09:08] <anhtrinh> ohh
[09:08] <n2diy> hyperstream: ok, GL.
[09:08] <anhtrinh> no
[09:08] <anhtrinh> sorry my question about ssh
[09:08] <anhtrinh> :)
[09:08] <mondova> .
[09:08] <FloodBot2> anhtrinh: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:09] <samtihen> the rest of gnome is still anti-aliased properlu
[09:09] <samtihen> properly*
[09:09] <anhtrinh> have any tried "ssh localhost export", and see that the export list is not as full as "export"
[09:09] <samtihen> just the actual pages in both firefox and chrome
[09:09] <anhtrinh> which it should be (I think)
[09:10] <samtihen> in the apearance settings, everything looks fine. i reset everything just to be sure, and shut down/restarted just to be sure
[09:10] <rob0917> I have ubuntu 10.10 on a A21M laptop IBM and when I adjust volume with the slider I get a squelching sound ,what can I do?
[09:10] <samtihen> any idea what installing kde did to my font rendering?
[09:12] <Crash1hd> How do I grep a filename exclusivly I mean I can do grep [f][i][l][e][n][a][m][e][.][e][x][t] and that works but is there an easier way?
[09:14] <diverdude> hello i have a problem with finding things in ubuntu repositories. nomatter what i try to install the package does not exist
[09:14] <uLinux> wow nice bugs in linux
[09:14] <diverdude> how may i solve that
[09:14] <uLinux> couldnt execute a command..
[09:14] <hyperstream> uLinux, just as many in windows.
[09:14] <uLinux> need to press reset
[09:14] <uLinux> hyperstream: who talked about windows?
[09:15] <hyperstream> uLinux, i did ?
[09:15]  * uLinux ignores hyperstream 
[09:15] <hyperstream> What a silly question..
[09:15] <hyperstream> Anyhow.
[09:16] <uLinux> "Linux never freezes, never crashes" not true at all
[09:16] <uLinux> or maybe it's Ubuntu that sucks
[09:17] <cntb> !es
[09:17] <MagusOTB> uLinux: What did you do?
[09:17] <Jordan_U> !ot | uLinux
[09:17] <hyperstream> uLinux, Where does it state that?
[09:17] <uLinux> Jordan_U: not offtopic
[09:17] <uLinux> .
[09:18] <ilovefairuz> uLinux: what's your ubuntu support question?
[09:18] <Cmdr_W_T_Riker> uLinux: or maybe it's some driver that's misbehaving, or an hardware issue
[09:18] <Gnea> uLinux: you don't make the rules here.
[09:18] <MagusOTB> uLinux: If you have a problem, describe it and we'll try to help you fix it. if you're going to make nebulous complaints, talk to your parents.
[09:18] <uLinux> MagusOTB: i already described it.
[09:19] <uLinux> ilovefairuz: what to do when I can even execute commands in terminal? reset ftw?
[09:19] <uLinux> Cmdr_W_T_Riker: possibly
[09:19] <uLinux> Gnea: did i made any rule?
[09:19] <Jordan_U> !sysrq | uLinux
[09:20] <Gnea> uLinux: what you were talking about was offtopic. perhaps you could explain what is happening with your system when it freezes so that we could help you make it stop freezing.
[09:20] <DJones> Compassion invite you to join author and speaker Tony Campolo and singer/songwriter Graham Kendrick as they share their passion for social justice.
[09:20] <DJones> Sorry, mis paste
[09:20]  * Gnea eyes DJones 
[09:20] <diverdude> it seems that nomatter what i try to install from the repository i gert soure unkown
[09:21] <Gnea> diverdude: could you pastebin the entire error?
[09:22] <anhtrinh> is SSH an off topic in this forum?
[09:22] <anhtrinh> :)
[09:22] <uLinux> (ot) users like hyperstream, instead of helping just start talking about linux vs windows, are a bad example for the community
[09:22] <anhtrinh> because it behaves different from OSX, supposedly both are using bash
[09:22] <Gnea> anhtrinh: that depends on the problem you're having with it and how you ask :)
[09:22] <MagusOTB> uLinux: community metadiscussion isn't much better. What's the prohblem you're having with ubuntu?
[09:23] <rww> uLinux: It's been five minutes since that conversation died. Stop trying to reignite it, thanks.
[09:23] <uLinux> MagusOTB: terminal couldnt execute any command
[09:23] <Gnea> anhtrinh: well bash is just the login shell, ssh is just a program that's separate of that
[09:23] <MagusOTB> uLinux: what's it say when you try?
[09:23] <anhtrinh> "ssh localhost export" gives different result "export"
[09:23] <hyperstream> uLinux, Your ability to not read the guidelines, and or present a problem in a decent manner, is a bad example of a young user who has no respect for such places as these.
[09:23] <uLinux> MagusOTB: nothing, it just hangs
[09:24] <MagusOTB> uLinux: terminal as in ctrl-alt-F1 or gnome-terminal/konsole/xterm/whatever?
[09:24] <anhtrinh> when I do export alone, it gives everything from .bashrc, but "ssh localhost export" only gives a few
[09:24] <MagusOTB> uLinux: and what command are you trying?
[09:24] <uLinux> !guidelines > hyperstream
[09:24] <Gnea> hyperstream: no need to egg him on.
[09:24] <uLinux> MagusOTB: any command i was trying to reboot
[09:24] <MagusOTB> anhtrinh: is your bashRC set up to behave differently based on your $TERM?
[09:24] <Gnea> uLinux, hyperstream: you're both better off burying it now.
[09:25] <uLinux> MagusOTB: i think it's wireless driver fault
[09:25] <MagusOTB> uLinux: specifically what did you type into the console and what resulted?
[09:25] <anhtrinh> not that i know off
[09:25] <uLinux> MagusOTB: i execute the command and than nothing happens
[09:25] <Jordan_U> uLinux: What command?
[09:25] <MagusOTB> uLinux: what command?
[09:25] <anhtrinh> MagusOTB: how can I check?
[09:26] <hyperstream> Gnea, not egging, stating the facts. He is clearly making trouble over nothing.
[09:26] <uLinux> Jordan_U: ANY command, like ls, cd..
[09:26] <hyperstream> Gnea, you concerns have been noted, thanks.
[09:26] <xiambax> whats your issue
[09:26] <hyperstream> you're*
[09:26] <uLinux> i was trying also to "sudo reboot"
[09:26] <hyperstream> afk
[09:26] <xiambax> this is redic to enter chan and then read all this redundant stuff
[09:26] <xiambax> you have to sudo reboot -n
[09:26] <MagusOTB> uLinux: and it just hangs? what terminal are you using?
[09:27] <uLinux> MagusOTB: gnome
[09:27] <uLinux> MagusOTB: also in tty whatever that is .. i couldnt type any command there too
[09:27] <MagusOTB> do you get the normal username@hostname dir$ prompt?
[09:27] <Gnea> uLinux: what happens if you try this:  sudo shutdown -r now  ?
[09:28] <Jordan_U> uLinux: I'm still not clear on what happened. Did the freeze appear to be caused by a command you ran, or did the machine freeze and to recover you tried to run commands?
[09:28] <xiambax> sudo facepalm
[09:28] <uLinux> ?
[09:28] <Gnea> uLinux: okay, if you couldn't type anything, could you use sysrq?
[09:29] <uLinux> Jordan_U: I could execute commands in terminal, couldnt restart using GUI, nothing
[09:29] <xiambax> ctrl c to see if it end the command if one is running
[09:29] <MagusOTB> or ctrl-Z if that fails and see what gets backgrounded.
[09:29] <uLinux> tried that too of course
[09:29] <xiambax> you try the old hold the power button down and wait for a reboot?
[09:29] <MagusOTB> if you open a new term do you get a prompt?
[09:29] <uLinux> hyperstream: stop giving me guidelines in pvt
[09:29] <Gnea> !pm
[09:30] <anhtrinh> basically, i have something in .bashrc, some commands in ~/bin (jrc, jrrun), and I tried "ssh localhost jrc -version", it said command not found
[09:30] <xiambax> you need guidelines in private
[09:30] <xiambax> dont be rude
[09:30] <uLinux> xiambax: why are you trolling?
[09:30] <Gnea> uLinux: was that to me about 'tried that too'?
[09:30] <uid0owl> how may i prevent 10.10 from autoupdating kernel? is it even possible?
[09:30] <uLinux> Gnea: ctrl+c ctrl+z
[09:30] <Gnea> uLinux: ah, what about sysrq commands?
[09:31] <Jordan_U> uLinux: Did the freeze appear to be triggered by a command you ran? I would still like a better description of the events leading up to the freeze.
[09:31] <xiambax> uLinux, http://paradoxdgn.com/junk/avatars/trollface.jpg
[09:31] <Cmdr_W_T_Riker> uLinux: if you installed the ssh server, you could try logging in from another computer
[09:31] <xiambax> Its not trolling.
[09:31] <yj_> hi, i have a problem: how can i put "mount --bind old-dir /tmp" in /etc/fstab
[09:31] <Gnea> !ot | xiambax
[09:31] <Cmdr_W_T_Riker> yj_: man mount
[09:31] <uLinux> Cmdr_W_T_Riker: the computer was fine, just couldnt execute commands.
[09:32] <Cmdr_W_T_Riker> yj_: or fstab entry is: /olddir /newdir none bind
[09:32] <uLinux> Jordan_U: i think it was Wireless driver
[09:32] <Jordan_U> uLinux: Please describe the events leading up to the freeze.
[09:33] <uid0owl> in particular, how may i prohibit changing default kernel after upgrade?
[09:33] <Gnea> uid0owl: why would you want to prevent it?
[09:34] <MagusOTB> uid0owl: you could use /boot/grub/brub.conf to point to the old one. Any reason you want to?
[09:34] <uLinux> Jordan_U: i was trying to connect to wireless using wicd with a patched driver that should be the problem.
[09:34] <cjae> how may I tell if samba is running
[09:34] <Jordan_U> uid0owl: Why do you want to prevent new kernels from being installed? If you had a particular problem after a kernel update perhaps we can help solve that so you don't need to prevent updates.
[09:34] <uid0owl> Gnea, maverick broke nvidia support, described here http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=2335295
[09:34] <Gnea> cjae: ps axf | grep smbd
[09:34] <asish> hi
[09:35] <MagusOTB> cjae: ps -e|grep smb perhaps?

[09:35] <tgywa> Hi
[09:35] <n2diy> when creating a seperate /home partition, does it matter whether it is primary or logical?
[09:35] <uid0owl> Gnea, i've tried all kernels from 36 to 33 with no luck, it currently works only with in 32, as in LTS
[09:35] <tgywa> any idea on the error ... "  ping: sendmsg: No buffer space available "
[09:35] <asish> can anyone tell me how to install adobe flash in maverick
[09:36] <cjae> Gnea: thanks
[09:36] <Gnea> uid0owl: you might be able to pin/hold the kernel package that works
[09:36] <Gnea> cjae: cheers
[09:36] <Gnea> !pin | uid0owl
[09:36] <brandoney> Hello everybody!
[09:36] <brandoney> I upgraded from Lucid to Maverick without problems.  But then an update with about 53 changes ran from Update Manager,
[09:36] <Jordan_U> n2diy: No, it does not. But unless you're sharing /home between two distros you might want to reconsider making one at all: http://castrojo.tumblr.com/post/1093664654/no-need-to-complicate-your-life
[09:36] <brandoney> now x won't start and a lot of other issues.  I wonder if I made the wrong choice when  I upgraded to maverick.
[09:36] <brandoney> Did I choose the wrong /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades ?
[09:36] <FloodBot2> brandoney: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:37] <uLinux> Jordan_U: btw the machine didnt freeze.. terminals didn0t respond any time i executed a command
[09:37] <asish> can anyone tell me how to install adobe flash in maverick
[09:37] <MagusOTB> asish: sudo apt-get install flashplayer-installer I believe
[09:37] <MagusOTB> or flashplugin-installer
[09:37] <uLinux> asish: you can open firefox, go to youtube, and it will ask you if you want to install it
[09:37] <cjae> Gnea: know how to get it to rebuild smb.conf? tried rm smb.conf and reinstalling samba but no smb.conf
[09:37] <asish> i m tryng
[09:38] <n2diy> Jordan_U: Ok, your a mind reader, it is a a Xubuntu box, and I'm installing Ubuntu on it too. Didn't realize I could share /home between them, let me go read your link.
[09:38] <Gnea> cjae: not sure why you'd want to rm it when you could've just mv'd it elsewhere, but what command are you using to reinstall?
[09:38] <uLinux> asish: are you in livecd?
[09:39] <asish> no i have installed maverick
[09:39] <cjae> Gnea: sudo aptitude install samba
[09:39] <Gnea> cjae: try this:  sudo aptitude reinstall samba
[09:40] <asish> it shows E: Unable to locate package flashplayer-installer
[09:40] <uLinux> asish: it's flashplugin-install
[09:40] <Mophistoliu> I am trying to upgrade to ubuntu10.10, but i am stuck while installing the cups-ppdc.
[09:40] <uLinux> asish: it's flashplugin-installer
[09:40] <cjae> Gnea: start: Job failed to start
[09:41] <asish> i have downloaded the package
[09:41] <Mophistoliu> Does anyone have the problem before?
[09:41] <supernicko> meemp
[09:41] <asish> but i dont know how to install in linux
[09:41] <supernicko> pulseaudio seems to suck
[09:41] <lallu_> hi can anybody tell me i have gnome ubuntu but i want KDE as well on same machine
[09:41] <jpds> !kde | lallu_
[09:41] <Jordan_U> n2diy: To share the /home partition, in the second install select the manual partitioning option in the installer. Make a new partition for the root, and select '/' for its mountpoint and select '/home' for the mountpoint of the already existing partition used as /home in the other install. Just make sure that the "format" box is not checked on the /home partition.
[09:41] <Exploiter> asish, go to terminal and type: sudo apt-get install softwarename and it will install it
[09:42] <lallu_> thank u
[09:42] <supernicko> is there a safe way to remove pulseaudio and use alsa instead?
[09:42] <uLinux> asish: have you installed Ubuntu Restricted Extras?
[09:42] <lallu_> i'll do this
[09:42] <supernicko> in 10.10
[09:42] <TheG0blin> Is there any program like wireshark that you can run in terminal wihtout x?  :)
[09:42] <Maahes_> I'm having a dependency problem trying to install a kernel image, can someone give me some advice please? http://pastebin.com/3HieTV7c
[09:42] <uLinux> supernicko: sudo apt-get autoremove pulseaudio
[09:43] <Jordan_U> TheG0blin: tcpdump
[09:43] <n2diy> Jordan_U: ok, Xubuntu is a fresh install, so formating it would do a lot of damage. So I only need to create a / partition for the new install? How do i set my mount points, I can't have two / directories, can I?
[09:43] <Maahes_> aptitude is preferred over apt-get, because aptitude does dependency resolution
[09:43] <supernicko> uLinux, cheers. What would then be required for a working alsa system?
[09:43] <n2diy> wouldn't
[09:43] <TheG0blin> Jordan_U: ok thanks! :)
[09:43] <Maahes_> !aptitude
[09:43] <Jordan_U> TheG0blin: You're welcome.
[09:44] <sprungisgod> supernicko, speakers?
[09:44] <Gnea> cjae: not sure... maybe you need to remove it, then install it again?
[09:44] <diverdude> how do i enable the multiverse repository ?
[09:44] <asish> it showsE: Unable to locate package install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz
[09:44] <asish> E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz'
[09:44] <Maahes_> anyone have knowledge of kernel conflict resolution?
[09:44] <Jordan_U> n2diy: Each install has its own /etc/fstab and no idea what partitions the other is using or how.
[09:44] <uLinux> supernicko: I just removed pulseaudio, but i miss Sound preferences, where you can change theme sounds etc
[09:44] <cjae> Gnea: Im not sure it reinstalls .conf and that may be why it will not start
[09:45] <rigved> yes, like it's said: "Aptitude has super cow powers"
[09:45] <Exploiter> asish, are you running from live cd?
[09:45] <mrko> Tried to upgrade my server from 8.04 to 10,04 using "sudo do-release-upgrade -d", and now it wont start. I get these messages: http://paste.ubuntu.com/520073/
[09:45] <supernicko> uLinux, yup, can see that being a problem. I can't seem to get skype to play nice though with pulseaudio
[09:45] <uLinux> Gnea: btw aptitude doesnt come installed in Maverick
[09:45] <asish> no im not running livecd
[09:46] <asish> i have installed as dual boot
[09:46] <Gnea> cjae: might need to make sure everything gets purged then:  sudo apt-get purge samba
[09:46] <Jordan_U> n2diy: So when you do the second install there will be no indication that sda4 (or whatever you selected to be /home on the first install) is a /home partition at all, it will just show up as an ext4 partition and you will need to specify how it will be used in the second system.
[09:46] <uLinux> asish: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[09:46] <n2diy> Jordan_U: ok, I aborted the Ubuntu inlstall because the manual partitioner removed / and /home from the Xubuntu partitions, they were still there, just the mount points were gone.
[09:46] <uLinux> asish: after you install restart firefox
[09:46] <Gnea> uLinux: ah, didn't know that, weird
[09:47] <Jordan_U> n2diy: That's normal, because the second install will have no concept of the way those partitions are used by the first.
[09:47] <Exploiter> asish: try this sudo apt-get install gsfonts gsfonts-x11 flashplugin-nonfree
[09:47] <asish> it shows command not found
[09:48] <n2diy> Jordan_U: ok, so when I install Ubuntu, I just set up the / partition, and /home and swap will be shared by both?
[09:49] <roberto_> ci sono italiani
[09:49] <Scarra3> Anyone use a sony vaio E series laptop and are having trouble with the touchpad in ubuntu 10.10
[09:49] <uLinux> !it | roberto_
[09:49] <anhtrinh> anyone has any ideas? basically, i have something in .bashrc, some commands in ~/bin (jrc, jrrun), and I tried "ssh localhost jrc -version", it said command not found
[09:49] <uLinux> asish: "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras"
[09:49] <Jordan_U> n2diy: Yes, the swap can also be shared, as long as you don't plan to hybernate, but you'll have to explicitly mark that the partition should be used as swap in the second install.
[09:50] <Mophistoliu> anyone stuck in the installing cups-ppdc while upgrading to 10.10?
[09:50] <asish> its getting installed
[09:50] <uLinux> asish: ok after it completes installation restart Firefox and try to watch a video on youtube
[09:51] <n2diy> Jordan_U: ok, the partitioner did show it as swap, with out any intervention from me. Well, here goes.
[09:51] <asish> ya of course
[09:54] <asish> thanx ulinux the video is streaming
[09:54] <uLinux> asish: no problem
[09:54]  * itguru loves 10.10
[09:54] <asish> do there is any command like Ctrl+alt+del on linux
[09:54] <adiyaman> :)
[09:55] <itguru> Hey guys, if there are any devs in here, 10.10 kicks ass! I love it
[09:55] <Gnea> asish: yes, ctrl-alt-del :)
[09:55] <itguru> asish: What do you want to do, bring up a task manager?
[09:55] <asish> s
[09:55] <ghisen> Gnome restarts when i open the ATI Control center... Anyone had this problem?
[09:55] <uLinux> asish: System > Administration > System Monitor
[09:56] <asish> wen i open more than one application the system crashes and i have no other option than to restart
[09:56] <Gnea> asish: also, you could right-click on the bar across the top, click on add-to-panel, and select the system monitor from there
[09:56] <adiyaman> do you use ltsp?
[09:56] <itguru> I'm intrested in this new sound thingy - does this mean that I can stream sound from my LT, to my DT connected to the most awesome sound system? (someone say yes!) (and this is all built into ubuntu?)
[09:57] <Gnea> itguru: it is possible, yes, if you configure it properly to
[09:57] <adiyaman> do you have any idea on sending commands to ltsp thin client?
[09:57] <n2diy> Jordan_U: does it matter which partition has the bootable flag, at the moment it is the Xubuntu partition, which is what I would like the default to be.
[09:57]  * itguru is going to figure it out!
[09:57] <itguru> That *would* possible be the sweetest thing ever
[09:58] <uLinux> asish: what are your computer specifications? memory.. cpu?
[09:58] <asish> i have 1gb ram
[09:58] <asish> 160gb memory
[09:58] <uLinux> asish: that's the harddrive
[09:58] <uLinux> asish: and your CPU?
[09:59] <asish> i have insatalled win7 alond ubuntu 10.10
[09:59] <asish> intel dual core
[09:59] <uLinux> asish: ok it's good
[10:00] <asish> wats the use of dat system monitor
[10:00] <ka1ser> hey
[10:00] <toader> Hi, how to get milliseconds under Linux? thanks
[10:00] <uLinux> asish: to show list of processes, how much RAM you are using etc
[10:00] <Gnea> itguru: there are a number of tutorials for it, this one seems to work, although it's been a few releases since I did this:  http://www.unixmen.com/linux-tutorials/582-stream-music-wirelessely-using-pulseaudio-server-device-chooser
[10:00] <uLinux> asish: like it says "System monitor"
[10:01] <ka1ser> anyone know if there is something in ubuntu that set/unset Path MTU (pmtu) functionality??? I keep getting fragmentation needed packets to what seems to be a lacking pmtu functionality on my side... this is almost new 10.04 box...
[10:01]  * itguru looks as Gnea: Thanks for that! :)
[10:01] <Scarra3> How come alps touchpads for laptops don't work on ubuntu 10.10
[10:02] <uLinux> asish: you should learn the basics. start here https://help.ubuntu.com/10.10/newtoubuntu/C/index.html
[10:02] <adiyaman> no one use ltsp?
[10:02] <asish> o i understand is der any shortcut to kill apps?
[10:02] <uLinux> asish: you can use system monitor or the terminal
[10:05] <Scarra3> Ok I just got a new Sony Vaio Laptop the model # is VPCEE32FX E Series Anyways the touchpad on it in ubuntu 10.10 does not work its an Alps touchpad and people have linked me to multiple places and none of them worked.
[10:05] <m0p0> hi all

[10:07] <asish> ok gnea i will read the documentation
[10:07] <cjae> Gnea: so I guess there is one @ /usr/share/samba/smb.conf
[10:07] <c0nv1ct> g0tcha, no
[10:07] <c0nv1ct> g0tcha, the background is set locally, the background does not come from the remote connection
[10:08] <g0tcha> c0nv1ct, ah thats too bad.. what about the terminal window on ubuntu desktop?
[10:08] <uLinux> I am getting static sound in ALSA. any fix?
[10:08] <c0nv1ct> g0tcha, it is all set from the terminal, all you can do remotely is set the prompt colors
[10:08] <Scarra3> Anyone know how I can get the alps touchpad to work
[10:08] <Gnea> cjae: excellent.
[10:09] <c0nv1ct> g0tcha, i mean, from the terminal application, locally
[10:09] <asish> thanks gnea
[10:09] <Gnea> uLinux: static sound?
[10:09] <Gnea> asish: cheers
[10:09] <uLinux> Gnea: or just static, some noise
[10:09] <Gnea> uLinux: like  cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp  ?
[10:10] <Gnea> uLinux: check speaker connections, make sure they're plugged in all the way
[10:10] <uLinux> Gnea: already checked
[10:10] <Gnea> uLinux: k, are there any lingering applications utilizing libasound?
[10:10] <uLinux> Gnea: maybe i will reinstall ALSA but im afraid to lose sound..
[10:11] <k333> IM new
[10:11] <Gnea> k333: hello new
[10:11] <uLinux> remove ALSA and purge all the settings and then install again
[10:11] <k333> Hello Gnea.
[10:11] <g0tcha> c0nv1ct, i see
[10:11] <g0tcha> thanks
[10:11] <Gnea> uLinux: that's a bit extreme. how about checking for lingering applications?  sudo lsof | grep libasound
[10:11] <k333> Im kinda lost :p
[10:11] <Crash1hd> is there a way to svn over smb? IE svn update smb://server

[10:15] <Genieliu> Help!I am stuck while upgrading to ubuntu10.10.It shows that installing cups-ppdc.:(
[10:15] <mondova> does anyone know why openssh won't update when it says no updates available?
[10:16] <Gnea> Genieliu: how long has it been 'stuck'?
[10:16] <g0tcha> wont update when it says no updates are available?
[10:16] <Gnea> mondova: because that's the way it is.
[10:16] <Jordan_U> n2diy: The boot flag is mainly used by microsoft's boot code. grub ignores it. To make one install manage grub and not the other run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc" in both installs. On the install that you want controlling grub make sure that your hard drive is selected as an install device (and *no* partitions). On the install you don't want controlling grub make sure *no* install devices are selected.
[10:16] <Genieliu> Gnea: About 1 hour...
[10:16] <SAngeli> is there a channel to ask for Hylafax or can I ask here in this chanel?
[10:16] <Gnea> Genieliu: installing from GUI or terminal?
[10:16] <Genieliu> Gnea: GUI
[10:17] <mondova> g0tcha: ssh is out of date but apt-get won't update it
[10:17] <uLinux> Gnea: maybe the sound is too high
[10:17] <helle> join /gentoo
[10:17] <n2diy> Jordan,  ok, I'm installing now, so hopefully there won't be any issues to worry about?
[10:17] <uLinux> Gnea: and i cant get sound in front jack.. already tried to find the appropriate model for VIA VT1708S
[10:18] <Genieliu> Gnea: Do u know what will happen if I kill the procedure?
[10:18] <uLinux> with Pulseaudio it works
[10:18] <Scarra3> Ok I just got a new Sony Vaio Laptop the model # is VPCEE32FX E Series Anyways the touchpad on it in ubuntu 10.10 does not work its an Alps touchpad and people have linked me to multiple places and none of them worked.
[10:18] <Gnea> Genieliu: odd... have you tried looking at the log console?
[10:18] <Jimmio> Hey all. Plymouth spits out some things just before loading the GDM. It said something about pulse being configured for user... and something about performance. I have 3 second delays in sound events at times. What can I do to fix it?
[10:18] <Genieliu> Gnea: I did.
[10:19] <Gnea> uLinux: odd... has the front jack ever worked?
[10:19] <uLinux> Gnea: :P yes with pulseaudio
[10:19] <Gnea> uLinux: is it a desktop or laptop?
[10:19] <Gnea> !pm | Scarra3
[10:20] <SAngeli> is there a channel to ask for Hylafax or can I ask here in this chanel?
[10:20] <Scarra3> Gnea I have 5 time and no one seems to notice my message, ive been also asking for the past 24 hours when I can get on
[10:21] <Gnea> Scarra3: did you try ubuntuforums.org?
[10:21] <uLinux> Gnea: desktop
[10:21] <Scarra3> Yup I have looked and tried many things that did not work
[10:21] <Gnea> Scarra3: what's the URL to your ubuntuforums.org post?
[10:22] <camer0n_> How does one install Ubuntu Server via usb stick, to a usb stick?
[10:22] <Scarra3> I didn't make a post I dont want to sit around for 3 days waiting for someone to reply to a thread I find it a lot easier to ask in irc I mean that is the point of the channel to get support
[10:22] <Jordan_U> camer0n_: Same stick?
[10:22] <camer0n_> Jordan_U, different stick... but i can use the same stick if it is easier :S
[10:22] <Gnea> Scarra3: well you've already sat around for 1 day here, so if you ask here and post there, maybe you'll only have to wait around for 2 days.
[10:23] <Scarra3> O-o
[10:23] <QQi> how get ip address from lan hostname?
[10:23] <Scarra3> So do you have a clue Gnea
[10:23] <Gnea> Scarra3: yes, but if no one is aware of the issue or doesn't know how to fix it, then you're better off asking in both places and maybe someone will find the time to do so
[10:23] <anubhav> QQi, ping that hostname
[10:24] <Scarra3> Gnea: Would you mind sharing then so I can get this problem figured out
[10:24] <Gnea> Scarra3: no I do not, that's why I'm suggesting you get a bit more aggressive in the number of places you ask.  10.10 is brand new and is full of problems.
[10:24] <Gnea> Scarra3: that's up to you, get registered and make a post about it on ubuntuforums.org, post as many details as you can.
[10:24] <jatt> isn't 10.10 a stable release?
[10:24] <bekor> hello anyone have time for a question
[10:24] <Jordan_U> camer0n_: Unetbootin should work with the server images.
[10:24] <Gnea> jatt: no, that's 10.04
[10:25] <Gnea> !anyone | bekor
[10:25] <Tankman> ubottu is rite..
[10:25] <Scarra3> Gnea: Oh sorry I miss read your comment I thought you said you knew sorry for miss understanding and thanks for the suggestion
[10:25] <Gnea> Scarra3: no problem, best of luck
[10:25] <camer0n_> Jordan_U, so use unetbootin to put iso to install usb, then install onto other usb stick?
[10:25] <Scarra3> Thanks
[10:26] <uLinux> Gnea: Maverick is stable but not LTS
[10:26] <uLinux> lol
[10:26] <bekor> thanks iwas wondering if someone knows how to get the add ons for super os 10.10 on ubuntu 10.10?
[10:26] <QQi> anubhav:  $ ping USER-PC   ping: unknown host USER-PC what's wrong? T_T
[10:26] <Gnea> uLinux: if it's not an LTS, it's not really considered 'stable'
[10:26] <Jordan_U> camer0n_: Yes.
[10:27] <Gnea> !stable
[10:27] <uLinux> Gnea: in that case "stable" is subjective.. for me not stable = beta
[10:27] <Gnea> uLinux: pretty much.
[10:27] <spndi> Hello My Ubuntu installation is over Windows Vista. It ran for a few days and suddenly it conked off. It now gives the screen saying Minimal BASH commands  GNU GRUB version 1.97 ~ Beta 4.
[10:27] <Scarra3> Wait so 10.10 was not offically released?
[10:27] <anubhav> QQi, do you also have some DOMAIN name, for eg. USER-PC.DOMAIN.COM
[10:28] <Gnea> Scarra3: it is officially released, it's just stale like 10.04 is
[10:28] <Gnea> er
[10:28] <Gnea> I said that wrong
[10:28] <Gnea> Scarra3: it is officially released, it's just as stable as 10.04 is
[10:28] <spndi> Before that no WUBI builder HDA something
[10:28] <brandoney> any irc client suggestions let me read history without forcing to bottom when it scrolls, will hide non-msg lines and will beep on my nick?
[10:29] <Gnea> spndi: yeah, I wouldn't trust Vista with anything important. are you trying to recover the wubi installation or is it not important?
[10:29] <Tankman> brandoney, most client can do that, inc xhchat
[10:29] <uLinux> Gnea: I get static not only with headphones. maybe i've set sound too high in alsamixer.. i dont know that why i want to remove alsa but i have to be sure after install it again i get sound otherwise i would need to reinstall ubuntu :x
[10:30] <brandoney> empathy sux, xchat or xhchat?
[10:30] <spndi> Gnea : I am a newbie so I installed it and now it sin't working I am not sure whats happening hence logged in
[10:30] <uLinux> brandoney: irssi (CLI) xchat (GUI)
[10:31] <uLinux> brandoney: or you can use mIRC with Wine..
[10:31] <fep_> how do i reinstall the kernel modules only ?
[10:31] <fep_> like "apt-get install linux-modules-2.6.35-22-generic-pae" doesnt work
[10:31] <brandoney> yeah, i like mirc but I don't wanna try to wine right now., Ill try xchat
[10:31] <Gnea> spndi: have you read through the wubi guide?
[10:32] <Gnea> uLinux: what soundcard do you have?
[10:33] <uLinux> Gnea: intel hda  codec: VIA VT1708S
[10:34] <fep> hello?
[10:34] <brandoney> I guess xchat is full deal and xchat-gnome is simplified?
[10:34] <uLinux> brandoney: i suppose
[10:34] <brandoney> cool, ill be back.
[10:34] <spndi> Gnea Wubi is the installer right
[10:35] <camer0n_> fep, hi...
[10:35] <spndi> Gnea :I did sucessfully install Ubuntu so the installation is over.
[10:35] <camer0n_> fep, i wouldn't have a clue... sorry...
[10:37] <Gnea> spndi: right, but the guide is for more than just installation
[10:38] <uLinux> Gnea: maybe the static is fans working?

[10:44] <fazzil> hi all
[10:44] <fazzil> what is ubuntu tweek?
[10:45] <fazzil> :-Dtweak...
[10:46] <chimi> can anyone confirm that fat32 has a max file size of 2gb
[10:46] <blakkheim> 4gb
[10:47] <chimi> i keep getting out of space errors when trying to copy
[10:47] <chimi> its a 5gb or so iso
[10:47] <blakkheim> that's why
[10:47] <Crovax-31> Hi, is there an easy way to log twice in parralel with the same user on ubuntu (to use in parralel differents desktops)
[10:48] <chimi> so what file system should i use
[10:48] <Crovax-31> using gdm
[10:48] <blakkheim> do you need compatibility with windows?
[10:48] <chimi> samba share for linux and windoze clients
[10:48] <blakkheim> or linux only
[10:48] <blakkheim> if it's a samba share the filesystem doesn't matter
[10:48] <unop> Crovax-31, on the same machine right?
[10:48] <Crovax-31> yup
[10:48] <Crovax-31> unop: yes
[10:48] <spndi> THOR : The error message displayed is (hda,0, NTSF5, no wubibldr) while trying to choose UBUNTU
[10:49] <unop> Crovax-31, sure then, look at gdmflexiserver and gdmxnest
[10:49] <chimi> blakkheim: i do have to format the drive at some point
[10:49] <blakkheim> chimi: yes
[10:49] <mrbdotse-hero> Ntsf?
[10:49] <chimi> blakkheim: i chose fat32 and am getting error
[10:49] <blakkheim> chimi: because of the 4gb filesize limit
[10:50] <blakkheim> chimi: you will have to reformat it as something else
[10:50] <chimi> blakkheim: thats no problem
[10:50] <chimi> blakkheim: ntfs?
[10:50] <blakkheim> is it on the linux system or the windows?
[10:50] <blakkheim> i usually go with good old ext3 on linux since ext4 has had some problems
[10:50] <chimi> blakkheim: ubuntu not the os's drive
[10:52] <chimi> blakkheim: thank you! so ext3 is relatively win friendly?
[10:52] <blakkheim> no
[10:52] <rigved> hi everyone
[10:53] <blakkheim> if it's a samba drive on linux that windows needs to access, the filesystem does not matter since windows isn't accessing it directly
[10:53] <blakkheim> it accesses it over the network
[10:53] <rigved> can anyone tell me where should i ask questions related to GNU/Debian?
[10:53] <spndi> hello Could you name a good book for Ubuntu beginners ? I am an absolute newbie
[10:53] <Propel> ext4 is the latest right?
[10:53] <Propel> well the most widely used, right?
[10:53] <blakkheim> it is the latest yes but it has had some problems so i avoid it
[10:54] <Propel> such as?
[10:54] <blakkheim> but it's up to you what you use
[10:54] <Propel> major ones?
[10:54] <blakkheim> data loss
[10:54] <Propel> damn lol
[10:54] <chimi> blakkheim: ok so thats what you ment by filesystem does not matter lol
[10:54] <blakkheim> yes

[11:13]  * camer0n_ wishes installation would hurry up :S
[11:13] <mondova> does anyone know why apt-get won't update openssh even though its out of date?
[11:13] <_F-117> oR
[11:13] <babu> I have very low memory 512mb
[11:14]  * Gnea looks at _F-117 
[11:14] <babu> Ubuntu seems very heavy for my pc. Its working slow. How to increase performance?
[11:14] <camer0n_> babu, low? i am installing onto 128mb :S
[11:14] <Gnea> mondova: is it pinned?
[11:14] <_F-117> Gnea: roger cntrl+Alt +F1
[11:14] <mondova> Gnea: what does pinned mean?
[11:15] <Gnea> !pin | mondova
[11:15] <will> babu: if you're after something lighter, you could try out lubuntu :P
[11:15] <Gnea> mondova: also, how do you know it's out of date?
[11:15] <jgb> how do I run a command line app with ubuntu-tweak's script-worker?
[11:15] <camer0n_> will, babu, or even xubuntu?
[11:15] <mondova> Gnea: its 4.7 and ssh is up to 5
[11:15] <_F-117> off subject but god dam i am hung over
[11:15] <camer0n_> will, is that still about?
[11:16] <Gnea> mondova: you're using which version of ubuntu?
[11:16] <Gnea> _F-117: indeed, go drink some water
[11:16] <mondova> Gnea: 8.10
[11:16] <will> camer0n: xubuntu is still about, but i've never heard anything but bad things about it. lubuntu is still about too, though it never seems to make the official cut
[11:16] <Gnea> mondova: 8.10 is no longer actively maintained, what did you expect?
[11:16] <_F-117> Gnea: I like your status
[11:16] <mondova> Gnea: its still supported
[11:16] <will> camer0n: well not BAD things, but more the fact that it doesn't seem lighter enough to warrant not using gnome
[11:16] <Gnea> !8.10
[11:16] <brandoney> why would firefox be sending & receiving ~100KB/s constantly?
[11:16] <Gnea> !eol
[11:17] <Gnea> mondova: negative.
[11:17] <_F-117> Gnea: Single?
[11:17] <camer0n_> brandoney, kill firefox? memory leak?
[11:17] <Gnea> _F-117: would you like to be forcibly removed from here?
[11:17] <will> could be a dodgy firefox addon
[11:17] <_F-117> rofl
[11:17] <_F-117> yes
[11:18] <yakup> hi, is there a way using the computing power of my hard-driveless computer via ethernet or somethong? what is the name of this operation, please?
[11:18] <mondova> Gnea: well 4.7 is from ages ago
[11:18] <_F-117> 10-4 over & out
[11:18] <camer0n_> yakup, thin client?
[11:18] <yakup> maybe, i'm checking.. thanks :)
[11:18] <Gnea> !ops | _F-117 is offtopic, drunk and trolling
[11:18] <will> see you guys - thanks for the help
[11:18] <mondova> Gnea: what can i use? my laptop is old and the new ones are so bloated
[11:19] <brandoney> hmm, i figured it would have memory problems, but didn't know it would send and receive
[11:19] <camer0n_> yakup, there is still a need for a some sort of hard drive.. but it is minimal.
[11:19] <_F-117> Gnea: THX
[11:19] <Gnea> mondova: it can't be THAT old
[11:19] <babu> I have used Xubuntu but when I use firefox, gimp and play music simultaneously it gets hund
[11:19] <babu> *hung
[11:19] <Gnea> _F-117: anytime.
[11:19] <camer0n_> brandoney, maybe virus?
[11:19] <mondova> Gnea: 9.04 runs noticeably slower
[11:19] <yakup> camer0n_, so the ram is not enough? i'm researching..
[11:19] <_F-117> Gnea: lol
[11:19] <brandoney> 100KB  I thought I was running a torrent
[11:19] <Gnea> mondova: that's likely due to the GUI you're using. if you didn't use gnome, and used something else, like xfce or e17, it might run a bit nicer
[11:20] <camer0n_> yakup, i suppose you could run from a livecd, connecting to a server to run everything else.
[11:20] <mondova> Gnea: thanks i'll try xfce
[11:20] <babu> I am a web developer so I would be using firefox, gimp and playing music all at same time. And then the pc gets hung and very slow even if   I use Xubuntu.
[11:20] <camer0n_> yakup, livecd only requires ram as well... no storage though?
[11:20] <Gnea> mondova: you MIGHT be okay with a backport of openssh-server, if you can find it
[11:20] <Gnea> !backport | mondova
[11:21] <egypt> where is the chinese ubuntu ?
[11:21] <Gnea> !cn | egypt
[11:21] <mondova> Gnea: you say 8.10 stopped being supported in april this year. openssh 4.7 came out in 2008
[11:21] <_F-117> Gnea: Alias ?
[11:22] <Gnea> _F-117: check with the /disc command
[11:22] <_F-117> Gnea: 10-4
[11:22] <Gnea> _F-117: you'd need to type it here
[11:22] <babu> I am a web developer so I would be using firefox, gimp and playing music all at same time. And then the pc gets hung and very slow even if I use Xubuntu.
[11:23] <_F-117> Gnea: what is this troll thing people speak of?
[11:23] <Gnea> !repeat | babu
[11:23] <blakkheim> babu: sorry, got disconnected
[11:23] <mondova> Gnea: no response?
[11:23] <Gnea> mondova: yeah, not sure what relevance that has to anything
[11:23] <yakup> camer0n_, my hdd is burnt and i can't buy a hard drive in the near future, so i want to use my desktop computer as an extension for my laptop.
[11:23] <babu> Its ok Blakkheim. I respect and thank your concern to help
[11:23] <mondova> Gnea: the point is apt-get hasn't updated openssh since 2008
[11:23] <JohnFlux> Yay.
[11:24] <mondova> Gnea: and my version of ubuntu stopped being supported this year
[11:24] <JohnFlux> It no longer takes 3 seconds to switch between windows in 10.10 :-)
[11:24] <Gnea> mondova: that's why I suggested the backports. they may or may not work.
[11:24] <JohnFlux> It seems the ATI bug fixes go into upstream at last :)
[11:24] <mondova> Gnea: the point is apt-get didn't update openssh even when the version of ubuntu was supported
[11:25] <mondova> Gnea: meaning that is not the reason it didn't update
[11:25] <babu> My primary problem is in windows I can use firefox,play music and use photoshop at same time without any problem but in ubuntu its  quite impossible
[11:25] <Gnea> mondova: I have no idea, I'm not a package maintainer.
[11:25] <mondova> Gnea: also i get updates frequently
[11:25] <mondova> Gnea: exactly, you're spouting misinformed nonesense
[11:25] <mondova> nonsense
[11:25] <babu> This is only reason I still cannot transfer my work environment to Ubuntu
[11:26] <Gnea> mondova: no I'm not, it's quite accurate. I told you that 8.10 is no longer supported, which it's not, and even verified it with you using an *official* method. I also gave you a possible method for finding a supported, more up-to-date openssh-server package. if it's not there, then that's not my problem and not my fault.
[11:27] <JohnFlux> babu: what's the problem?  too slow?
[11:27] <itguru> babu: Umm... Your having a problem multitasking in ubuntu?
[11:27] <mondova> Gnea: are you listening the point is it didn't update even when 8.10 WAS SUPPORTED
[11:27] <babu> Yes too much. It gets flaky
[11:27] <itguru> ???
[11:27] <JohnFlux> babu: define flaky?
[11:27] <babu> Yes I hope its problem with multitasking
[11:27] <JohnFlux> babu: is this Ubuntu 10.10 ?
[11:27] <JohnFlux> babu: do you have an ATI video card? :-)
[11:28] <Diamondcite> babu: How much ram do you have? How many tabs are open in firefox?
[11:28] <babu> I mean the mouse disappears when am moving it and reappears due to slowness in processing
[11:28] <Gnea> mondova: which, again, was not my problem and not my fault.  also, have you bothered to check the changelog for your current version to make sure that the patches DIDN'T actually make it in without the main version # changing?
[11:28] <babu> 512mb
[11:28] <camer0n_> yakup, how much ram have you got?
[11:28] <babu> I have via unichrome vm 800]
[11:28] <JohnFlux> babu: ATI video card?
[11:28] <itguru> babu: What ur proc speed, and do you have things like Desktop effects turned on?
[11:28] <mondova> Gnea: how on earth would i check that?
[11:29] <slidinghorn> mondova, the conversation's getting old -- point being, you need to upgrade to a supported version of Ubuntu.  Once upgraded, if the included openssh isn't new enough for your purposes, you can upgrade it as well.
[11:29] <Diamondcite> babu: any swap space? (512 isn't much today.. least not when firefox has many tabs open to sites with media...)
[11:29] <mondova> Gnea: and how would i upgrade it as well?
[11:29] <mondova> Gnea: by compiling from source?
[11:29] <JohnFlux> mondova: sorry what are you trying to do?
[11:29] <slidinghorn> mondova, yes
[11:29] <babu> My video card is not Ati, Its via unichrome vm 800. My processor is amd athlon 2800
[11:29] <JohnFlux> mondova: upgrade openssh on 8.10 ?
[11:29] <Gnea> mondova: by knowing how to use the system itself and not insulting those who are just volunteers helping you that you didn't pay for support from in the first place.
[11:29] <babu> swap space is 1gb
[11:29] <mondova> JohnFlux: apt-get won't update openssh and it hasn't since 2008 even though 8.10 stopped being supported april 2010
[11:30] <mondova> Gnea: you're spreading misinformaiton. the reasons you stated are not the reason it did not update
[11:30] <JohnFlux> mondova: and you need an updated version openssh?
[11:30] <Gnea> mondova: am I? check your facts and your sources again.
[11:30] <Diverdude> I have a laptop with no other ethernet interface than a wireless card (ie. no cable). I have installed ubuntu 10.10 and i cannot make the netcard work...itsimply does not  detect any networks even though i know there are some around. I think there is some problem with the driver. Is there any way i can see the chipset of the wireless card in that laptop, find the correct driver using another computer, download it, transfer
[11:30] <Diverdude>  it using usb and install it on the laptop?
[11:30] <babu> In my graphics card the desktop effects are defaultly not supported and cannot be enabled ever
[11:30] <mondova> JohnFlux: yes. its 4.7 way out of date
[11:30] <yakup> camer0n_, 4 gigs of ram and a quad cpu i think it'll help me with intense operations i make during graphic processing
[11:30] <Gnea> !attitude | mondova
[11:30] <JohnFlux> mondova: you could change your /etc/apt/sources  to the latest ubuntu version
[11:31] <mondova> Gnea: what is the reason it didn't update since 2008 then?
[11:31] <JohnFlux> mondova: and then _just_ install openssh
[11:31] <JohnFlux> mondova: then switch your sources back again
[11:31] <mondova> !attitude | Gnea
[11:31] <Gnea> mondova: I've already explained why.  It's not my fault you refuse to accept it.
[11:31] <mondova> JohnFlux: nice thanks mate
[11:31] <slidinghorn> JohnFlux, mondova that is not a viable solution, that can wreck the installation completely
[11:31] <Diamondcite> babu: May I PM you? Too much scrolling in the main channel.
[11:31] <JohnFlux> mondova: it usually works :-D  if it tries to update your entire system, then cancel :-D
[11:32] <babu> O sure diamondcite
[11:32] <mondova> Gnea: you have NOT explained why it didn't update since 2008 when the distro version is supported until 2010. if you did pls quote it
[11:32] <mervin_> #c
[11:32] <Gnea> JohnFlux: even if he's being insulting, I don't believe that breaking his system is a proper response.
[11:32] <JohnFlux> mondova: but if it only wants to upgrade a few packages, it's probably fine
[11:32] <mondova> thanks JohnFlux
[11:32] <JohnFlux> mondova: np
[11:32] <Gnea> mondova: I don't have to, now go learn how to utilize /usr/share
[11:33] <mondova> Gnea: you are a dribbling piece of shit. you keep saying 8.10 isn't supported as the reason
[11:33] <mondova> THAT IS NOT THE REASON
[11:33] <FloodBot2> mondova: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:33] <slidinghorn> !language | mondova
[11:33] <ikonia> mondova: your language is unacceptable, stop it
[11:33] <Gnea> !caps | mondova
[11:33] <JohnFlux> mondova: to be safe, you could write down the list of packages that it installs.  If it screws up, just remove those packages and reinstall (with the apt/sources.conf pointing to the 8.10 repos)
[11:33] <Gnea> mondova: seriously dude, get a grip
[11:33] <ikonia> mondova: your attitude needs to calm down towards users, please
[11:33] <ikonia> Gnea: easy, lets move it on now,
[11:33] <JohnFlux> ikonia: to be fair, people do seem to be baiting him
[11:33] <camer0n_> yakup, you should be set :) there should be some live studio cds out there some where too
[11:34] <camer0n_> yakup, good luck :)
[11:34] <mondova> ikonia: gnea is intentionally misleading newcomers including myself
[11:34] <mondova> ikonia: how is that helpful for the community
[11:34]  * Gnea throws his hands in the air
[11:34] <ikonia> mondova: I'm sorry, I don't see him missleading you
[11:34] <ikonia> mondova: what exactly is the problem ?
[11:34] <slidinghorn> mondova, ikonia he is not...he is simply stating that your version of ubuntu (8.10) is not supported, therefor we can't really offer any suggestions except to upgrade your installation and see if your problem is solved...if not, we'll be glad to help
[11:35] <yakup> camer0n_, thank you, i'm contacting a specialist friend...
[11:35] <mondova> ikonia: he keeps referring to 8.10 being unsupported when this problem has been since 2008
[11:35] <mondova> that is clearly not the reason
[11:35] <Gnea> mondova: I'm sorry, but I have been very patient and have tried to listen and provide you with the answers you are seeking. You have been nothing but rude, unappreciative and have even stooped to calling me names.
[11:35] <ikonia> mondova: that doesn't change the fact that 8.10 is currently unsupported, you should look to upgrae to current supported versions
[11:36] <slidinghorn> Gnea, I'd just let it go...it'll get worked out.  Carry on with your support :)
[11:36] <she_dyed> gnea have some iced tea or something first =)
[11:36] <JohnFlux> mondova: just being "supported" doesn't mean it has the latest packages up to that point
[11:36] <Gnea> she_dyed: ha, just polished off some green tea, thanks :)
[11:36] <mondova> JohnFlux: why not?
[11:36] <ikonia> mondova: the reason you've not had any updates from 2008 on sshd is because there hasn't been a package update, now that 8.10 is not supported there won't be any additional updates
[11:36] <JohnFlux> mondova: openssh would have _only_ been upgraded if there was a serious security flaw
[11:36] <she_dyed> gnea you're welcome, i was 'been there done that'
[11:36] <deadroot> hello. is it possible to ls files owned by a particular user?
[11:37] <mondova> ikonia: right thankyou. so why was gnea suggesting that was the reason there was no update?
[11:37] <mondova> ikonia: when it clearly wasn't true
[11:37] <JohnFlux> deadroot: "find" has an option for that
[11:37] <mondova> JohnFlux: by upgraded you mean in the packages?
[11:37] <JohnFlux> deadroot: man find
[11:37] <ikonia> mondova: because it's true
[11:37] <JohnFlux> mondova: right
[11:37] <Gnea> mondova: think about what you just said.
[11:37] <mondova> ikonia: you are as stupid as Gnea. please uninstall ubuntu you don't deserve to use it
[11:37] <ikonia> mondova: a.) ssh recieved few updates in general as it's quite secure b.) 8.10 is not supported so there won't be any more updates
[11:38] <deadroot> JohnFlux: thanks
[11:39] <Diverdude> I have a laptop with no other ethernet interface than a wireless card (ie. no cable). I have installed ubuntu 10.10 and i cannot make the netcard work...itsimply does not  detect any networks even though i know there are some around. I think there is some problem with the driver. Is there any way i can see the chipset of the wireless card in that laptop, find the correct driver using another computer, download it, transfer
[11:39] <Diverdude>  it using usb and install it on the laptop?
[11:40] <azmogs> Diverdude: you can check for the chipset/model using lspci
[11:40] <evident> hi everybody: Can anybody tell me what these dependency problems mean and how I can fix them: http://hpaste.org/40892/upgrade ? Would be great if anyone could help
[11:42] <chimi> blakkheim: thanks again that did fix the problem
[11:42] <deadroot> btw, does anybody happen to know if anything was changed recently with the packages? today, when i reinstalled ubuntu 9.04 and copied over the apt-get archives that i have stored locally, apt-get wanted to download an additional 190MB of archives. normally it didn't need to download anything as i had everything it needed
[11:42] <Bauldrick> hello all - I've askes a few times this.. Why my samba shares can no longer be seen in ' Places > Network' - I have to manually input them always?
[11:43] <tgies> so gnome-keyring is driving me nuts
[11:43] <tgies> it doesn't seem to want to store the passphrase to my ssh private key, which i understand it is supposed to do
[11:43] <ikonia> tgies: I may have learnt a valuable lession here
[11:44] <tgies> i further understand that ssh-add is then supposed to automatically load that key on login, which it also doesn't seem to want to do
[11:44] <ikonia> tgies: are you expecting a popup to ask you for your passphrase
[11:44] <reenignEesreveR> can i open a virtual network interface which is just an throttled wrapper for another network interface?
[11:44] <tgies> ikonia: i think?
[11:44] <ikonia> tgies: hang on, I've recently done a ton of detail on this
[11:45] <tgies> I thought ssh-add was supposed to have found my keys in ~/.ssh on login, said "oh hey, i should load these", loaded them into the agent, prompted me for my passphrase, stored it in gnome-keyring, and never asked again
[11:45] <tgies> instead i have to manually run ssh-add
[11:45] <ikonia> tgies: hang on
[11:45] <tgies> and provide my passphrase (at terminal; ssh-askpass never happens)
[11:45] <tgies> sure
[11:46] <monndova> ikonia: do you feel like parroting anymore mindless information in your abject ignorance of the facts? ssh4.7-2008, ubuntu 8.10-2010. these are the facts. spouting unrelated rubbish about 8.10 being out of date post april 2010 is mindless.
[11:46] <ikonia> tgies: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-keyring/+bug/578035
[11:46] <monndova> why not parrot it once more to give yourself the illusion of being useful
[11:47] <fep> i need to reinstall kernel modules, how do i do that? (to roll back som wifi drivers i misconfigured)
[11:48] <tgies> ikonia: oh great
[11:48] <tgies> yeah, i did a lot of googling
[11:48] <ikonia> tgies: took me a lot of effort to get that info, but it fixed it for me
[11:48] <tgies> and what i found seemed to suggest that this was just broken
[11:48] <tgies> reading
[11:48] <jenue> guys,what other burning software for ubuntu?
[11:48] <fep> what is the modules package for the kernel named for ubuntu 10.10 ?
[11:48] <fep> since the modules and the core are seperate
[11:49] <ikonia> tgies: that documentation is pretty hard to find, so it does look like it's broken until you find out the real info
[11:49] <lolo> hello
[11:50] <fep> can you see what im writing?
[11:50] <tgies> ikonia: see, i ran into another mention that you had to have the pub key too
[11:50] <tgies> but here's the thing: I do
[11:50] <tgies> :|
[11:50] <ikonia> tgies: check the permissions on it, that matters too
[11:50] <tgies> what should they ought to be
[11:51] <fep> i need to reinstall the kernel modules, not only the core... how do i do that easelly ?
[11:51] <ikonia> tgies: they need to be in ~/.ssh, have 600 permissions, and the public key needs to be $name_of_private_key.pub
[11:53] <bobthemilkman> Is there any problem with installing gcc-3.4.6 with --prefix=/usr/local?  Should I use /opt instead?
[11:53] <fep> Hello, i wonder how i reinstall my kernel modules, since a apt-get install --reinstall dont install the modules, just the core
[11:53] <ikonia> bobthemilkman: it doesn't matter
[11:54] <bobthemilkman> Installing it into /usr/local won't cause any conflicts later on with, say, /usr/local/lib and choosing the correct version of a library?
[11:55] <ikonia> bobthemilkman: if you do --prefix=/usr/local it will use /usr/local/lib, it will only conflict with things that share that path
[11:55] <bobthemilkman> Half of my system uses that path for stuff from gcc-4.4
[11:55] <ikonia> bobthemilkman: it shouldn't gcc 4 should be in /usr
[11:55] <ikonia> bobthemilkman: not /usr/local
[11:56] <bobthemilkman> Oh really? Great.
[11:56] <zamba> i want to set up dual monitors in X.. i have a laptop and an external monitor.. but i'm not able to set the external monitor as the primary one (meaning the one with the desktop icons, the taskbar, the launcher and so on).. how can i do that?
[11:57] <bobthemilkman> Typically everything I install from source I put into /usr/local (except for things compiled with icc which go into /intel, my own special deviation from standard filesystem structure).
[11:57] <fep> Hello, i wonder how i reinstall my kernel modules, since a apt-get install --reinstall dont install the modules, just the core
[11:57] <Harold_parker> zamba, System->Preferences->Screen Resolution
[11:58] <zamba> Harold_parker: haven't got taht
[11:58] <konaya> I just installed Maverick. I have a problem with my touchpad being completely dead when resuming. Googling produces a lot of "this problem has been solved in Maverick, case closed", but... Apparently not all problems have been solved. How to troubleshoot this?
[11:58] <zamba> Harold_parker: only have Monitors under System-Preferences
[11:58] <zamba> Harold_parker: and there's no option there to chose "primary" screen
[11:58] <Harold_parker> o_O
[11:59] <she_dyed> maybe its a pirated version...
[11:59] <Harold_parker> lol
[11:59] <bobthemilkman> lol
[11:59] <Marcus_Jah> lol
[11:59] <bobthemilkman> ikonia: You wouldn't happen to know if there's some way to compile xgcc with different flags from how xgcc compiles gcc?
[12:00] <bobthemilkman> It seems like it'd be a lot faster to compile xgcc with -O0 and then gcc with -O3.
[12:00] <bobthemilkman> (Or -O2)
[12:00] <Harold_parker> yeh no shit
[12:00] <n2diy> ! grub
[12:00] <Harold_parker> its optimising that takes time
[12:00] <Harold_parker> lol
[12:01] <Harold_parker> sorry don't mean to be a prick
[12:01] <n2diy> ! grub2
[12:01] <Harold_parker> i didn't mean that in a nasty way
[12:01] <azmogs> zamba: xrandr --output <monitor> --primary
[12:02] <zamba> azmogs: sweet!
[12:02] <konaya> Anyone?
[12:02] <zamba> azmogs: apart from the fact that the desktop icons stayed on the secondary screen
[12:02] <bobthemilkman> Oh wait
[12:02] <azmogs> zamba: yeah, they do that... but i always could live that :)
[12:02] <Guest37527> pettson you fuckin wanker
[12:03] <jpds> Guest37527: Please be civil.
[12:03] <zamba> azmogs: i guess i have to live with that as well :)
[12:03] <Diamondcite> konaya: It maybe 'solved' but not commited, Perhaps you might want to read through the post to see what their solution was.
[12:04] <bobthemilkman> Man
[12:04] <bobthemilkman> I *LOVE* how gcc-3.4.6 doesn't compile without modifying one line of source code.
[12:05] <she_dyed> zamba not nvidia?
[12:05] <konaya> Diamondcite, most state explicitly that the fix has been committed.
[12:05] <zamba> she_dyed: nope
[12:05] <bobthemilkman> Have to change file gcc/icontrol.c:1537 to include "777" as an additional argument in one of the lines... :(

[12:08] <Diverdude> Im trying to follow this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=405990    I have downloaded the tar file and untar'd it. But when i run the install.py it gives me permission denied....So i try instead running sudo python install.py it gives me please run without root privieges?
[12:08] <i5noc> Diverdude, whats the guide for?
[12:08] <i5noc> what are you attempting to install?
[12:09] <naxa> is there a good free data recovery solution for (re)formatted ntfs?
[12:09] <bobthemilkman> Diverdude: sudo -s, then run it.
[12:09] <i5noc> This method is no longer supported and could possibly cause more problems than it fixes. I'm going to leave it up, but just remember - use it at your own risk.
[12:09] <i5noc> a guide that starts like that begs you to continue googling
[12:09] <i5noc> or read the whole thread
[12:09] <i5noc> i wont support it
[12:10] <bobthemilkman> This application is in no way supported by Canonical, the Ubuntu forums or its staff. Use of this application is at your own risk.
[12:10] <konaya> Diverdude, chmod +x install.py, then try running it.
[12:10] <Exitus> Could any1 help me with "VirtualBox+Windows XP+Wireless" Problem?
[12:11] <i5noc> that sounds interesting whats up Exitus
[12:11] <she_dyed> zamba the old way was to look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and switch things in "Server Layout"
[12:11] <tgies> ikonia thank you, it turns out i'm an idiot. my permissions were all perfect but somehow i ended up with an id_rsa.pub in that weird ascii-armored RFC 4716 format instead of openssh format
[12:11] <magicblaze0071> i just bought a r705 toshiba protege and loaded ubuntu on it. Whenever I try to download/update software from the gui, the machine hangs. Anyone knows how to debug this?
[12:11] <i5noc> your host os is which and your guist os is which?
[12:12] <tgies> iirc i didn't have my public key immediately handy so i tried to generate it from the private key but did so improperly
[12:12] <i5noc> magicblaze0071, open a terminal at applications > accessories -> terminal
[12:12] <Exitus> i5noc: The problem is pretty common, Xp just wont find my wireless hardware, so that I cant connect to wireless
[12:12] <i5noc> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:12] <tgies> taking that and running it through ssh-keygen -i -f id_rsa_bad.pub > id_rsa.pub fixed me
[12:12] <i5noc> Exitus, xp is the host os or guest os?
[12:12] <sindicato> galera, blz?
[12:12] <magicblaze0071> i5noc: rebooting now
[12:12] <sindicato> hey guys
[12:13] <Exitus> i5noc: Hmm not sure, pretty new with virtual box
[12:13] <magicblaze0071> i5noc: hanged as soon as i logged in this time
[12:13] <sindicato> my ubuntu server has stucked on yesterday. It seems that there's not enough space on my hd... I've cleaned some stuff and it worked again..
[12:13] <Exitus> i5noc: Is there some way to check it?
[12:13] <magicblaze0071> i installed 10.10
[12:14] <sindicato> But is there any app to clean automatically?
[12:14] <i5noc> Exitus, the host is the one running virtualbox and the guest is running inside of virtualbox
[12:14] <Diverdude> Im trying to follow this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=405990    I have downloaded the tar file and untar'd it. But when i run the install.py it gives me permission denied....So i try instead running sudo python install.py it gives me please run without root privieges?
[12:14] <i5noc> magicblaze0071, when booting to go grub menu and take out quiet, and take out splash
[12:14] <i5noc> you might wanna add in 'verbose'
[12:14] <magicblaze0071> i5noc: I did apt-get upgrade last time. it worked
[12:14] <Exitus> i5noc: Ahh then it is guest
[12:15] <magicblaze0071> i issued the commands again
[12:15] <i5noc> Exitus, then it doesnt need to see your wireless
[12:15] <sacarlson> Diverdude: from that I assume you are having problems with broadcom wifi?  did you look at this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1044898
[12:15] <i5noc> it only needs networking
[12:15] <magicblaze0071> seems it hanged again
[12:15] <i5noc> whether the host is connected via wireless or wired should be transparent to the guest
[12:15] <magicblaze0071> yum, those commands hanged in the middle
[12:15] <i5noc> its setup automagically typically
[12:15] <magicblaze0071> yup = yum
[12:15] <i5noc> magicblaze0071, then you might have some repos that cant be found
[12:16] <i5noc> can you pastebin the output somehow?
[12:16] <magicblaze0071> i5noc: its not the apt-get, the machine hanged
[12:16] <Exitus> i5noc: It still didnt connect, ahh I try to restart the windows
[12:16] <zamba> she_dyed: i've already fixed it
[12:16] <i5noc> magicblaze0071, try dmesg|tail
[12:16] <i5noc> or dmesg|grep sd
[12:16] <i5noc> or grep sd /var/log/messages /var/log/syslog
[12:16] <she_dyed> zamba: where did you do the fix?
[12:17] <zamba> she_dyed: xrandr
[12:17] <she_dyed> zamba: nice
[12:17] <zamba> she_dyed: xrandr --output "screen" --primary

[12:24] <i5noc> magicblaze0071, can you get to the recovery terminal instead of gui easily?
[12:24] <lallu_> sudo apt-get install wine                what is this ?
[12:25] <bobthemilkman> lallu_: What is what?
[12:25] <magicblaze0071> i5noc: what is a recovery terminal?
[12:25] <bobthemilkman> That's the command to install wine, a windows "emulator."
[12:25] <i5noc> when you start up the machine if it doesnt give you grub lines, then hold shift till you see them, first is normal boot, second is 'crap we're in trouble' boot
[12:25] <lallu_> what happens with this command?
[12:25] <bobthemilkman> lallu_: It will install wine.
[12:26] <magicblaze0071> i5noc: i'm on grub screen
[12:26] <grid_> ey

[12:26] <azmogs> gergobarcza: i have no experience with that controller, but maybe this http://users.emt.ee/aigark/wp/?p=47 might help
[12:26] <lallu_> please tell me what is wine?
[12:26] <i5noc> yeah select one of the recovery modes
[12:26] <zoidberg-> Hey guys, if i want to compile C programs on ubuntu, what packages do i need to install ? (im running ubuntu hardy) ?
[12:26] <bobthemilkman> wine is a program used to run windows programs in linux.
[12:26] <i5noc> lallu_, wine lets u run some windows binaries
[12:26] <i5noc> !wine | lallu_
[12:27] <gergobarcza> azmogs: yes i've done it but after that it asks for the driver

[12:32] <commodoor> hi, are there people who installed ubuntu 10.10 on HP envy 14Inch?
[12:32] <Aemaeth> grid_, is it in /media/ ?
[12:32] <nathan7> *CPAN
[12:32] <nathan7> but for tex
[12:32] <mick0n00b> nope
[12:32] <nathan7> nathan@armadillo:~/firesheep$ apt-cache search ucs tex
[12:32] <nathan7> texlive-latex-extra - TeX Live: LaTeX supplementary packages
[12:32] <_CommandeR_> why is the ubuntu font so messed up in the terminal ?
[12:32] <nathan7> _CommandeR_: How'd you mean, messed up?
[12:32] <mick0n00b> looks ok to me
[12:32] <nathan7> Define "ubuntu font"
[12:33] <_CommandeR_> nathan7, let me show a screenshot
[12:33] <vlt> nathan7: Thanks, I'll try the -extra pkg
[12:33] <grid_> Aemaeth: yes, it is there, label data, but how can i set a user to it, like adduser Guest --home <path on the disk data> ?
[12:33] <nathan7> vlt: =)
[12:33] <Aemaeth> i changed my font to wingdings
[12:33] <nathan7> This makes me realize how nice it is to hear thank you
[12:33] <commodoor> i'm having problems with the touchpad
[12:33] <nathan7> In Holland, nobody ever says thank you
[12:34] <grid_> thank you, and i'm from holland ;)
[12:34] <nathan7> grid_: =p
[12:34] <commodoor> nathan7, i'm in holland and people always say thank you to me :P
[12:34] <nathan7> *most people*, okay?
[12:34] <_CommandeR_> nathan7, http://data.fuskbugg.se/dipdip/____Screenshot-1.png
[12:34] <nathan7> what the
[12:34] <grid_> Aemaeth: can you explain?
[12:34] <nathan7> What font is that?
[12:34] <_CommandeR_> nathan7, ubuntu font
[12:34] <nathan7> Just named 'Ubuntu'?
[12:34] <mick0n00b> looks like ur dpi might be screwed
[12:34] <Dr_Willis> You did set the terminal to use the monospaced version?
[12:35] <mick0n00b> or is it just terminal..
[12:35] <nathan7> :o
[12:35] <_CommandeR_> just terminal i noticed.
[12:35] <nathan7> Sure it's monospace?
[12:35] <_CommandeR_> got Use the system fixed witdth font
[12:36] <tax> #ubuntu-us-fl
[12:36] <grid_> how can i see the mount point of my hdd?
[12:36] <mick0n00b> mount
[12:36] <nathan7> Which HDD?
[12:36] <nathan7> If it's your root, / =p
[12:36] <_CommandeR_> nathan7, Dr_Willis got Ubuntu selected on all fonts in Fonts
[12:36] <Dr_Willis> nathan7:  theres no ubuntu mono variant that ive seen...
[12:36] <Dr_Willis> _CommandeR_:  you want to use monospaced font for the terminal. Otherwise they wont look right
[12:36] <nathan7> Then, set it with a monospaced font
[12:36] <Dr_Willis> Try the Droid Mono variants.
[12:37] <nathan7> I like the Monospace font personally
[12:37] <Dr_Willis> Unless im missing some fonts.. I dont see any Ubuntu Mono variant.
[12:37] <grid_> nathan7: i have a second hdd, that has a label data, it is at /media/, i can open it from the gui, but now i want to do adduser Guest --home <dir on the Data hdd>, but i do'nt know it's path
[12:37] <nathan7> grid_: ah, mount
[12:37] <Nielson> howdy
[12:38] <mick0n00b> yo
[12:38] <_CommandeR_> Dr_Willis, droid mono is no default font ?
[12:38] <grid_> nathan7: thanks, /dev/sda3 on /media/Data type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks) i got ;)
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> _CommandeR_:  no idea. I install lots of fonts... I dont know whats installed by default
[12:38] <Dr_Willis> Hmm. I got a 'ubuntu' font and a 'ubuntu-title' font i notice.
[12:39] <i5noc> magicblaze0071, mm not right offhand but you could install smart utils and check the disk
[12:39] <grid_> if you chmod at dir, and you remove that dir, and you create it again, do you need to chmod it again to the same level
[12:40] <_CommandeR_> Dr_Willis, Droid Sans Mono?
[12:41] <Dr_Willis> _CommandeR_:  any mono font should work.
[12:41] <Dr_Willis> Droid has mono and normal variants.
[12:42] <Nielson> anyone with a HP envy 14 using ubuntu 10.10 around here?
[12:42] <Dr_Willis> _CommandeR_:  http://www.webupd8.org/2010/07/7-of-best-ubuntu-terminal-fixed-width.html
[12:43] <_CommandeR_> Dr_Willis, hm it worked thanx
[12:44] <Dr_Willis> I think ive noticed in KDE's Konsole - it lets you only select Mono spaced fonts.. whild gnome-terminal lets you select anything.
[12:44] <hotstew> Hey guys, I've got a problem connecting to the internet with Ubuntu 10.10
[12:44] <_CommandeR_> Dr_Willis, yeah think it is odd
[12:45] <gergobarcza> Hi! I am trying to install ubuntu 10,10 server on an intel s3240 board with intel esrt2 raid1 array and the installer cannot find the appropiate driver for it, and i do not know how could i solve this problem. Can you help me?
[12:45] <Diverdude> Where can i find the b43fwcutter software for maverick as a .deb package i can download?
[12:46] <Dr_Willis> that inconsolta font on that url i gave. looks nice..
[12:46] <Diverdude> Where can i find the b43fwcutter software for maverick as a .deb package i can download?
[12:47] <Dr_Willis> i wonder if that 'get deb' web site has urls to all the debs.. They should be on the various update/apt/repository servers. if you looked for them
[12:47] <azmogs> Diverdude: sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter
[12:47] <she_dyed>  tries a search on debian.com itself Diverdude (but practice safe se-- er I mean use with caution)
[12:48] <she_dyed> there you go azmogs had it
[12:48] <Dr_Willis> http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/
[12:48] <azmogs> which wasn't that hard to find really ;)
[12:48] <Dr_Willis> !info b43-fwcutter
[12:49] <Diverdude> azmogs, no i need to install it on another computer which does not have internet, so i need the .deb package
[12:49] <brandoney> I upgraded from Lucid to Maverick and everything worked fine.  Update manager installed ~50 updates, and x stopped working.
[12:49] <azmogs> Diverdude: it is on any ubuntu mirror then ready to be downloaded
[12:49] <brandoney> What is the basic procedure for backing out from latest update?
[12:49] <v_v> hotstew: hey guy, maybe you can give some details so that people can know what the problem is
[12:49] <she_dyed> Diverdude: apt-get -d install... <-- from azmogs command
[12:49] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/b/b43-fwcutter/
[12:49] <psycho_oreos> !broadcom | Diverdude
[12:49] <Diverdude> azmogs, mmm i tried this one: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/utils/b43-fwcutter   but it gives an error when i try to install it so i figured it was beause it was an old version
[12:50] <Dr_Willis> I thought the use of that fwcuter was outdated now a days..
[12:50] <psycho_oreos> follow the link for offline installation
[12:50] <grid_> /dev/sda3 on /media/Data type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks) i got, but i can't type cd /dev/sda3, what is wrong?
[12:50] <she_dyed> Dr_Willis: me too
[12:50] <Dr_Willis> grid_:  you cd to the mountpoint NOT the device...
[12:50] <psycho_oreos> which?
[12:50] <psycho_oreos> the ubottu's link?
[12:50] <grid_> Dr_Willis: what would be the correct syntax?
[12:51] <Diverdude> she_dyed, so if i use -d flag where is the package then stored?
[12:51] <v_v> grid_: /dev/sda3 is a device, what you can cd  is usually a directory, so you can 'cd /media/Data', in fact you cd /dev/sda3
[12:51] <hotstew> sorry I got disconnected
[12:51] <ActionParsnip> grid_: or you can run:  nautilus /media/Data
[12:51] <she_dyed> Diverdude: usually /var/cache/apt/archive take a look around,
[12:51] <grid_> thanks
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> grid_:  you cd /media/whatever   not cd /dev/ANYTHING
[12:52] <hotstew> does somebody have Orange Switzerland's current apn and network id for Internet Everywhere Young?
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> grid_:  you dont cd to '/dev' things...
[12:52] <Dr_Willis> !mount | grid_
[12:52] <she_dyed> i have lemon not orange...
[12:52] <Diverdude> she_dyed, and should it then work even though the machine i do sudo apt-get -d install b43-fwcutter  on is a 10.04 and the machine which needs the package is a 10.10 ?
[12:53] <houeibib> bonjour
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> hi houeibib
[12:53] <grid_> i wasn't aware i didn't try cd /media/Data before
[12:53] <ActionParsnip> grid_: the device is mounted to the mouunt point, so you access the mount point, not the device
[12:55] <jackjack> ciao
[12:55] <she_dyed> Diverdude: the question is, would 10.10 need something ancient better check those links from Dr_Willis
[12:56] <Dr_Willis> I thought the b43 drivers were included/replaced by the sta drivers these days.. but i dont have a laptop with those drivers any more
[12:57] <she_dyed> thats the thing Diverdude

[12:59] <kjelle> hi. can i set a default -j 7 for my ubuntu desktop 10.04?
[12:59] <kjelle> on gentoo i could do so
[12:59] <Dr_Willis> kjelle:  clarify what you are meaning..
[12:59] <Gnea> kjelle: for compiling?
[12:59] <kjelle> Dr_Willis: I want to set the default -j (jobs) for make on my system
[12:59] <kjelle> Gnea: yes
[12:59] <palihapiz> heloo guy
[13:00] <Gnea> kjelle: who compiles so much in ubuntu?
[13:00] <azmogs> kjelle: MAKEOPTS environment variable should do it
[13:00] <kjelle> azmogs: ty
[13:00] <Gnea> yeah, MAKEOPTS will do it
[13:00] <palihapiz> i need some help with ubuntu netbook 10.10
[13:01] <kjelle> I got an i7 cpu, and want to make more use of it. Gnea i compile a lot :-)
[13:01] <Gnea> kjelle: ok :)
[13:01] <palihapiz> my touchpad ao532h not working..someone can help me?
[13:01] <gsedej_work> hi! Any idea if I can hotswap off SATA disk (after unmounting)?
[13:02] <gsedej_work> SATA II I think
[13:02] <Dr_Willis> gsedej_work:  i think the controller needs to support that feature.
[13:02] <gsedej_work> Dr_Willis, how can I check?
[13:03] <cjjnjust> hi, how to change the disk name ?
[13:03] <gsedej_work> cjjnjust, use Disk Tools
[13:03] <Dr_Willis> gsedej_work:  no idea..  I imagine the external sata porta re that way.. but for an internal sata port.. Im not sure its very common.
[13:04] <gsedej_work> cjjnjust, under System -> Administration -> Disk tools
[13:04] <Bruno_ubuntu> Alguem pode me ajudar?
[13:04] <gsedej_work> and change label
[13:04] <cjjnjust> gsedej_work, got it

[13:06] <printf_1> Hi all - I'm running Windows 7 which is pretty much a piece of shit. Can I install Ubuntu by double clicking some Ubuntu icon so I can get rid of Winshit?
[13:06] <cjjnjust> azmogs, how about u disk?
[13:06] <Nielson> my HP envy 14 1020ED touchpad is having problems

[13:09] <ActionParsnip> Diverdude: if you are compiling then the release is moot
[13:10] <printf_1> Thank you, Dr_Willis.
[13:10] <ActionParsnip> printf_1: if you want rid of win7 you can boot to livecd and remove the win7 install to install ubuntu on 100% of the space available. This will destroy all currnt data
[13:12]  * Dr_Willis bets he will be back..
[13:12] <MrBlue_NL> 1.) Download ISO 2.) Burn ISO 3.) Start the CD when booting your computer 4.) Get excited with the live cd 5.) Install Ubuntu
[13:12]  * airtonix throws down two pennies
[13:12] <slidinghorn> Dr_Willis, don't threaten us!!  ;-)
[13:13] <cbush15> Hi1
[13:13] <MrBlue_NL> lol
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> MrBlue_NL: you forgot 1a) MD5 test ISO
[13:13] <cbush15> Is there any way to install a vpn on ubuntu?
[13:13] <MrBlue_NL> yeah
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> !vpn | cbush15
[13:13] <MrBlue_NL> like he knows how to do this in Win ActionParship
[13:13] <cbush15> Thanks
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> MrBlue_NL: then research should be done
[13:13] <airtonix> cbush15, probably the easiest way is to install Zentyal Server and use the VPN web management interface it provides
[13:13] <ActionParsnip> !md5
[13:14] <cbush15> airtonix: You got teamviewer?
[13:14] <MrBlue_NL> how many of those autoreply from ubottu are there? :p
[13:14] <slidinghorn> !brain | MrBlue_NL
[13:15] <airtonix> cbush15, no i do not. but i was pretty impressed at how simple Zentyal Server made the whole vpn server affair (it even generates a windows client complete with your zentyal servers ssl certificate)
[13:15] <cbush15> Can someone help me set this vpn please via teamviewer
[13:15] <xeroadmin> I am having trouble with an external USB hard drive
[13:15] <cbush15> airtonix: ok, can u step me through this :D
[13:15] <ActionParsnip> MrBlue_NL: loads, the factoids.cgi page has them all. it makes support easy as loads of people ask the same questions
[13:15] <naftilos76> hi everyone, as ubuntu 10.10 uses pulse as its' default sound server, i would like to ask this: Can i record a conversation that's taking place on Skype? That is, i need some kind of 'mix' function so that i can re-direct audio streams to an audio recording app like 'audacity'. Is that possible?
[13:15] <MrBlue_NL> nice... i will stop going offtopic in here
[13:16] <ActionParsnip> !details | xeroadmin
[13:16] <xeroadmin> it sometimes mounts, then unmounts a few seconds later, and sometimes just gives me a, improperly formatted error
[13:16] <xeroadmin> I am running 10.04 lucid on the gnome desktop
[13:16] <Guest48075> any body know why "echo" doesn't work in vim 7.2?
[13:16] <airtonix> cbush15, first you need to acknowledge that you will no longer be able to use network-manager if you run zentyal server...since zentyal server is an enterprise server control package (it used to be called ebox)
[13:16] <cbush15> whats network manager
[13:17] <cbush15> all i use my vps is for irc and openfire
[13:17] <cbush15> and a few irc bots
[13:17] <airtonix> cbush15, it's the handy thing that powers the network icon interface in your notification tray...
[13:17] <cbush15> ok which one do you recommded me install
[13:17] <i5noc> 1nd0meth
[13:18] <airtonix> cbush15, i don;t recommend you install Zentyal Server on a desktop/workstation... typically you use a dedicated machine for it.
[13:18] <slidinghorn> cbush15, network manager is installed by default
[13:18] <cbush15> i have a vps
[13:18] <cbush15> So which 1?
[13:18] <azmogs> naftilos76: http://bit.ly/a5g2KQ looks promising
[13:19] <remoteCTRL1> !rip
[13:19] <airtonix> cbush15, thats up to you... i'm simply saying that Zentyal Server is an option if you want a full time VPN server... if you're willing to dedicate a machine to it.
[13:19] <cbush15> k
[13:19] <tuxtoti> Okie, this is a cross-post i have done to #rsync and ##linux :  i'm looking for an option in rsync which would copy the delta content into a different file instead of merging it with the original one . Any clues ?
[13:20] <airtonix> cbush15, http://www.zentyal.com/en/products/server/
[13:20] <Dr_Willis> Guest48075:  if using the vim on a default install. you may want  to install the full 'vim' package / the default is  a tiny version of vim with a lot of features removed.
[13:21] <airtonix> cbush15, it just uses openVPN as its vpn server... but the web interface is pretty good.
[13:21] <cbush15> ok
[13:21] <cbush15> Should I install that?
[13:21] <alby> hey all
[13:21] <cbush15> It will not stuff up my irc server?
[13:21] <airtonix> cbush15, no idea
[13:21] <cbush15> hmm
[13:22] <ActionParsnip> cbush15: no as it uses a different port
[13:22] <airtonix> cbush15, it does take control of the iptables and dhcp server on the machine you install it on though
[13:22] <cbush15> airtonix: can I give you the details to install this
[13:22] <cbush15> airtonix: The task is to big for me lol
[13:22] <airtonix> cbush15, you should be fine if you know what you're doing when it comes to logical configuration of a network server
[13:22] <fr4g> hi, i tried booting ubuntu from usb, but after a dark red screen with a keyboard symbol I only get blackscreen
[13:22] <grid_> can someone tell me why this doesnt work? sudo adduser -m Jan --home /media/Data/Users/Jan

[13:23] <xeroadmin> I am running Ubuntu 10.04 on gnome. I am trying to mount an external NTFS drive, which before was giving me no grief, however now, the best I can get is it mounting for a maximum of 10 seconds before unmounting again, and that's when I don't get an error message
[13:23] <airtonix> cbush15, no thanks.
[13:23] <cbush15> oh ok

[13:24] <cbush15> how do u create files in ssh

[13:24] <cbush15> how?
[13:24] <slidinghorn> i won't lie...I've been waiting for a chance to use that one..
[13:24] <airtonix> cbush15, try to refrain from using the enter key as punctuation
[13:25] <cbush15> airtonix: what do u mean
[13:25] <ActionParsnip> cbush15: you can mount the file system using sshfs
[13:25] <Guest48075> any body know why "echo" doesn't work in vim 7.2?
[13:25] <cbush15> airtonix: How do i create that file in ssh
[13:25] <airtonix> cbush15, well your message is spread out over three lines, you were lucky that time no one interrupted you with a large message of their own/
[13:25] <cbush15> Sorry
[13:26] <ActionParsnip> cbush15: or you can simply ssh over, then create the file in cli
[13:26] <manhunter> hi
[13:26] <cbush15> how?
[13:26] <cbush15> I am in ssh
[13:26] <manhunter> ActionParsnip: hi

[13:26] <anirudhr> xeroadmin, Are you mounting it from fstab? What are the options set?
[13:26] <cbush15> How do i create that directoru

[13:26] <ActionParsnip> cbush15: if you have sample file content you can open the file with nano, then paste the text in
[13:27] <airtonix> cbush15, then i would check to see if that directory exists yet... ls /path/to/directory
[13:27] <xeroadmin> Before, I could just connect to USB, and it would automount, without any issues, however now, I can't seem to find any way of reliably mounting it

[13:33] <airtonix> cbush15, then you can ctrl+shift+v to paste what you mgiht have previously copied from elsewhere, and to save you would press ctrl + o, and to exit it would be ctrl + x
[13:33] <aeon-ltd> remoteCTRL1: please don't run polls, please ask about reccommended cd rippers not what everyone uses
[13:33] <cbush15> thanks
[13:34] <airtonix> cbush15, as far as your config details...
[13:34] <remoteCTRL1> aeon-ltd: i frankly spoken dont care if i get everbodys choices or general recommendations if i get a program that works for me
[13:34] <toor_> How do I stop the xserver? I don't have gdm installed btw
[13:34] <remoteCTRL1> aeon-ltd: so? someting useful to contribute also?
[13:34] <magicblaze0071> my ubuntu 10.10 frequently hangs on my toshiba protege r700. Any ideas on how to debug this. i5noc : are you still here?
[13:35] <aeon-ltd> remoteCTRL1: sound juicer, that comes with ubuntu
[13:35] <airtonix> remoteCTRL, this is not a polling channel.
[13:35] <spacebug-> how can I put my own stuff in /etc/resolv.conf without NetworkManager overwriting it? (Must be a way to tail/head stuff to it even when using networkmanager, right?)

[13:35] <_CommandeR_> Need help with empathy, for some reason it starts 2 windows for 1 chat.
[13:36] <remoteCTRL1> aeon-ltd: i'd really use that one if i only knew how to teach it to use 320kbps ant not 128...
[13:36] <_CommandeR_> with double me
[13:36] <cbush15> I am stick on In the above line, adjust subnet values (192.168.100.0/24) if needed
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> spacebug-: you need to edit the connections, then set the interface to DHCP (address only)
[13:36] <airtonix> spacebug-, yes there is i think you needt o look at /etc/default somewhere
[13:36] <ActionParsnip> spacebug-: you can then add the DNS you wish in the iput box below, you dont need to edit any files by hand
[13:36] <Bouazza> hello !
[13:36] <spacebug-> ActionParsnip: I want to change the timeout and attpemts options and there is no way to change them there.
[13:37] <spacebug-> airtonix: hum ok
[13:37] <Bouazza> I need some help before filling a bug report at launchpad
[13:37] <cbush15> Help plz!
[13:37] <airtonix> spacebug-, maybe not, but there is a place where you can impose a global set of  DNS ips
[13:37] <ActionParsnip> spacebug-: that I am not sure of
[13:38] <Jimmio> Hey all. Plymouth spits out some things just before loading the GDM. It said something about pulse being configured for user... and something about performance. I have 3 second delays in sound events at times. What can I do to fix it?
[13:38] <Bouazza> my laptop is slowing down after nearly 15~20 minutes of music playing
[13:38] <jackjack> ciao atutti
[13:38] <spacebug-> actually I dont really want to change them, I read it was possible to change the default behaviour and that was made by editing /etc/resolv.conf and put options there andnow I cant let it go.. want to know how hehe
[13:38] <Bouazza> I checked the CPU usage and it was normal ( nearly 5% )
[13:39] <Bouazza> but the laptop responds very slowly
[13:39] <cbush15> need help
[13:39] <cbush15> something went wrong
[13:39] <cbush15> I followed the instructions but cant connect to vpn at my home
[13:39] <jackjack> !list
[13:39] <Bouazza> I checked the iowait and it was near 30~40%
[13:40] <airtonix> spacebug-, does /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf look like what you want ?
[13:40] <Bouazza> how can I get more information about my problem ( the responsible processes for example ) ?
[13:41] <spacebug-> airtonix: it might be.. I have been looking around in that file
[13:41] <she_dyed> Bouazza: the default conky config shows the top 3 cpu/mem hogs iirc
[13:42] <spacebug-> some forums talkas about putting own stuff in /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/tail but that directory does not excist
[13:42] <airtonix> spacebug-, can't hurt to try making it ?
[13:43] <spacebug-> I did try, did not work ..hum
[13:43] <spacebug-> guess networkmanager does now use it
[13:43] <spacebug-> not*

[13:43] <JimmyJohn> Sorry to interrupt - can anyone help me set up dual booting?
[13:44] <Bouazza> she_dyed: ok thanks, but that's the same job "top" does, isn't it ?
[13:44] <cbush15> ughh no one is helping me
[13:44] <Jimmio> Bouazza: I have a funny feeling it's Pulse. 10.10's pulse or its config causes nearly total freezes of my eight core, 12GB DDR3 system.
[13:44] <spacebug-> well tnx anyway airtonix, I will let it be. No really need to change it, more that I wanted to know how
[13:45] <prestige> hi

[13:45] <slidinghorn> !ask | prestige
[13:45] <remoteCTRL1> aeon-ltd: ya same stuff everywhere... ripperX produces broken output, sound juicer only produces low quality output as changing the lame encoders options wont help, etc... this is really annoying... but thanks for your help, i appretiate it...
[13:45] <Bouazza> @Jimmio: I don't know if it's due to the 10.10, because I didn't test other versions . But I killed Rhythmbox et Pulseaudio ( it keeps restarting it self when I kill it ), and the freezes are  still there .
[13:45] <magicblaze0071> Jimmio: 10.10 freezes on my r705 laptop as well...
[13:46] <JimmyJohn> I haven't gotten 10.10 to boot. it shows up in boot options next to 7, scrolls through a big ole list, and then just sits.
[13:46] <aeon-ltd> remoteCTRL1: if you like cli, i heard abcde is really configurable
[13:46] <magicblaze0071> my 10.10 boots, but freezes every few minutes
[13:46] <Bouazza> she_dyed: okay, I'll try conky . I have just to get the name of that ****ing process to fill a bug report
[13:47] <magicblaze0071> should i install another version?
[13:47] <prestige> vdr
[13:47] <prestige> not work
[13:47] <she_dyed> Bouazza: also check messages or logs, might be something relevant
[13:47] <JimmyJohn> I just wish i could get it to boot? IDK if i should just wait a while since its the first boot or what.
[13:47] <slidinghorn> prestige...you need to provide full details of your problems.  Please keep your question to one line, as well.
[13:47] <remoteCTRL1> aeon-ltd: what ever works :D thanks dude :)

[13:48] <Alphanaut> hey all, is there a good program to use to image an ubuntu partition.  i want one that wont require me to sector copy all the empty space on my ubuntu partition, only the data so the image isn't 100GB
[13:48] <Jimmio> There's a definite issue with 10.10.. I just can't find it. No crazy CPU usage, no crazy RAM usage.. Something got broken, and since I have gnome issues (controls flash repeatedly from focused and not focused states) and audio issues, I think it has something to do with the North/Southbridge access drivers. I really can't put my finger on it :S
[13:48] <popey> Alphanaut: clonezilla
[13:49] <azmogs> Alphanaut: clonezilla
[13:49] <Alphanaut> i have one for winblows (true image), but it will only sector to sector copy the ubuntu part
[13:49] <Alphanaut> oh
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> xeroadmin: ok, what do thy mean
[13:49] <Alphanaut> ok
[13:49] <Alphanaut> thanks
[13:49] <FloodBot2> Alphanaut: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:49] <Alphanaut> oops, i didnt mean to flood
[13:49] <ActionParsnip> Alphanaut: partimage
[13:49] <Alphanaut> thank you all
[13:50] <xeroadmin> I can't seem to find them on any official, or unofficial, ubuntu website. I have found someone getting just -71s, but his issue is different to mine, I already tried what he did

[13:51] <ActionParsnip> aguitel: http://digitizor.com/2010/05/10/how-to-install-unity-in-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx/
[13:51] <JimmyJohn> So. it's "completing installation" on the first boot but idk why it won't actually start.
[13:51] <_CommandeR_> How do I enable Xinerama ?
[13:51] <aguitel> ActionParsnip, you like it?
[13:52] <spacebug-> I had lots of strange problems with 10.04 at first. Problems people would just not understand, neither did I. Finally found out it was my harddrive that was broken, though to heavy usage without using fan to cool it.
[13:52] <commodoor> Bouazza, do you have family in Holland?
[13:52] <ActionParsnip> aguitel: not prsonally
[13:52] <aguitel> ActionParsnip, ok
[13:53] <qwertyjustin> hello. odd question: i have xp and ubuntu on a dualboot, and after every couple of days or so i need to reinstate grub, as when i turn the computer on the computer is unable to find the mbr, why must i update/rewrite the grub everytime. why does it loose the mbr info?
[13:54] <jemadux> 11.04 no gnome ?
[13:54] <ActionParsnip> jemadux: natty is offtopic here
[13:54] <popey> qwertyjustin: maybe your antivirus is messing with the mbr, or perhaps you have a BIOS option to lock the mbr?
[13:54] <brandoney> In Lucid I setup virtual interfaces in /etc/network/interfaces an that broke Network Connections applet.  Can I add two IPs to one interface in the new Network Connections applet in maverick?
[13:55] <qwertyjustin> ill have a look see
[13:55] <qwertyjustin> cheers
[13:55] <Alphanaut> will clonezilla or partimage also save the MBR so i can save the state of my dual boot laptop?
[13:55] <Alphanaut> i dont see a screenshot where it grabs the mbr
[13:56] <ActionParsnip> Alphanaut: not sure on the MBR, not had to restore my image yet tbh :)
[13:57] <Alphanaut> haha
[13:57] <Alphanaut> hmm that could be a problem then
[13:57] <Alphanaut> nobody knows?
[13:57] <commodoor> Alphanaut, yes
[13:57] <Bouazza> err... do you find it normal if the %iowait reaches 30~40% ?
[13:58] <commodoor> Alphanaut, i use clonezilla for full image
[13:58] <azmogs> Alphanaut: it does restore it
[13:58] <Alphanaut> by it do you mean clonezilla or partimage?
[13:58] <ActionParsnip> Alphanaut: you can reinstate grub from livecd but obviously if you are using the image on more than 10 systems it will get a bit arduous.
[13:58] <commodoor> Alphanaut, i always restore dualboot ubuntu and Win with clonezilla and works everytime perfect
[13:58] <azmogs> Alphanaut: clonezilla
[13:59] <Alphanaut> ok commodoor that's exactly what i was wondering, thanks very much.  you too azmogs

[14:01] <steveccc> hi all - are there any comprehensive hardware testing programs available with ubuntu - I have a machine I would like to test
[14:04] <Dr_Willis> qwertyjustin:  ive noiticed a similer issue on my laptop. but not seen it happen lately. Im wondering if it had somthing to do qwith me havbing linux on one hard drive.. but the GRUB  on the MBR of the OTHER hard drive...
[14:05] <Dr_Willis> qweqweqwe:  a handy trick i did was take a spare flash drive and run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc' and told it to install grub to the MBR of the flash drive. - that way when i lost grub. I could boot the flash drive. that would then boot the PC's hard drive. get me back to my normal system. where i could rerun 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc' and reinstall to the MBR of the HD.
[14:06] <hexonxonx> Does anyone know why dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg exits immediately (command done as root)?
[14:06] <Dr_Willis> qweqweqwe:  i have noticed that now that i reinstalled to the laptop. with GRUB and linux both on HD#2 - the issue has not happened again.
[14:06] <bronckobuster_> hey
[14:06] <bronckobuster_> anyone in here a freenode admin?
[14:07] <Gnea> bronckobuster_: try #freenode
[14:07] <popey> bronckobuster_: join #freenode
[14:07] <zamba> try #freenode
[14:07] <zamba> :)
[14:07] <popey> hexonxonx: what are you expecting that to do?
[14:07] <bronckobuster_> thx
[14:08] <grid_> my samba is working perfectly. it also stores user profiles, it is a pdc, with a winxp client, now i made a user to /media/Data/Users/ instead of home, now it won't save the profile of winxp, what do i need to change?
[14:08] <hexonxonx> popey: I'm expecting it to run me through the blue and grey console screen
[14:08] <popey> hexonxonx: to achieve what?
[14:08] <Dr_Willis> grid_:  you could link /home/Username to /media/data/whatever   perhaps..
[14:09] <grid_> Dr_Willis: how would you do that?
[14:09] <Dr_Willis> grid_:  ive not done 1/5th the things you seem to have done with samba. :)
[14:09] <Dr_Willis> grid_:  ln -s /home/whatever  /media/whatever
[14:09] <Dr_Willis> grid_:  ive done that trick befor to move a single users 'home' to a spare hard drive so thtye had a lot of space.
[14:09] <hexonxonx> popey: Well, I _wanted_ to configure framebuffer and default desktop manager to xdm or the like..
[14:09] <grid_> you mean i link the map virtually?
[14:10] <Dr_Willis> hexonxonx:  i dont think that dpkg-reconfigure has asked such questions in a long long time..
[14:10] <Gnea> grid_: #samba could likely help you out better that way
[14:10] <grid_> yeah i'm there also
[14:10] <hexonxonx> I may be horribly mistaken
[14:10] <Gnea> but if I was going to link a home directory between samba and unix, I'd use nfs
[14:10] <Gnea> it's tricky, but it can be done
[14:11] <Gnea> !nfs
[14:11] <grid_> Dr_Willis: i think ln -s /home/whatever /media/whatever has nothing with samba to do, but it will redirect the home to the other dir?
[14:11] <Dr_Willis> hexonxonx:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm     --> asks to use gdm./xdm.kdm or whatever else you have installed.
[14:11] <Gnea> grid_: is the directory on the same system?
[14:11] <hexonxonx> Dr_Willis: _that's_ what it was-- lol thank you.
[14:11] <Dr_Willis> grid_:  yes it will. and it could be your user not being in the normal /home/ location is confuseing the samba 'homes' special share.
[14:12] <grid_> Gnea: yeah, not the same partition ;)
[14:12] <Dr_Willis> grid_:  i normally just use teh homes special share. :) so thats about the e4xtent of my samba-kunf-fu skills.
[14:14] <Good_D_ay> Thanks everybody have a Good Day.
[14:15] <grid_> Dr_Willis: if you use ln -s /home/whatever /media/whatever ln -s, are the files hard stored at the /media/whatever dir ?
[14:15] <Gnea> grid_: yeah, I'd just use nfs
[14:15] <BlaDe^> Hi guys, when using wget http://se.php.net/get/php-5.3.3.tar.gz/from/this/mirror -- it tries to write to a 'mirror' file not the actual gz even though it shows a http 302 and Location: http://us3.php.net/distributions/php-5.3.3.tar.gz [following]
[14:16] <nascentmind> Hi. When I install a dbg library. The next time I compile and link will it be using the dbg version of the library?
[14:17] <Gnea> grid_: just setup the nfs server on the same system as the samba server
[14:17] <etheretic> I salvaged a lot of files from disk A to disk B with testdisk, leaving it to run overnight. Now disk B has 0 free bytes, and deleting files from disk B doesn't increase freespace. Heeelp.
[14:17] <erUSUL> etheretic: fsck disk B
[14:17] <qorep> how do I ignore permissions on an external drive?
[14:17] <Gnea> etheretic: you're supposed to use a larger disk to put the files on
[14:17] <etheretic> sudo?
[14:18] <qorep> (it's ext4)
[14:18] <ActionParsnip> etheretic: if you had a backup, you wouldnt have had to use testdisk
[14:18] <Gnea> qorep: sudo
[14:18] <jrib> qorep: you don't...
[14:18] <etheretic> Gnea: miscalc. 8)
[14:18] <qorep> Gnea: no, not good enough
[14:18] <qorep> jrib: of course I do, shouldn't some umask do the trick?
[14:18] <etheretic> ActionParsnip: it WAS the backup which got bad blocks.
[14:18] <jrib> qorep: no.  Like I said, you don't
[14:18] <qorep> would be neat if I could do it from gui though
[14:18] <grid_> Gnea: i can't because my hdd1 can't handle so much memory
[14:19] <jrib> !permissions > qorep
[14:19] <qorep> jrib: eh, why?
[14:19] <Gnea> qorep: it doesn't get any better than that, but maybe you're not asking the right question
[14:19] <qorep> jrib: yes, I know about permissions
[14:19] <nastas> etheretic: silly question but the disk B is internal or external?
[14:19] <ActionParsnip> etheretic: surely then just get a new drive and make a new backup as the original data is ok - right?
[14:19] <jrib> qorep: then set them to what you want them to be and be done with it
[14:19] <Gnea> grid_: I'm not following...
[14:19] <etheretic> nastas: external.
[14:20] <lqkwnel> hi there, having a problem with maverick: every other time instead of asking me for login and pw it stops loading at the purple screen and only shows me the mouse pointer. I have to load the command line and reboot
[14:20] <nastas> etheretic: did you check for hidden files on this drive?
[14:20] <etheretic> ActionParsnip: it's the orig disk which has 0 bytes free.
[14:20] <ActionParsnip> etheretic: oh boy
[14:20] <Gnea> lqkwnel: can you login via the console?
[14:21] <lqkwnel> yeah I can, I reboot with sudo reboot now after logging it
[14:21] <lqkwnel> in'
[14:21] <grid_> Gnea: i will store profiles of my winxp to a different media, instead of /home/samba/profiles/
[14:21] <Gnea> etheretic: you probably filled it up with logfiles
[14:21] <etheretic> nastas: I deleted a couple of GB archives - still no freespace.
[14:21] <nastas> etheretic: yes but did you check for hidden files?
[14:21] <grid_> Gnea: they must be stored at /media/Data/Users/User/profile
[14:21] <Gnea> grid_: so you run out of storage, and have plenty of ram?
[14:21] <lqkwnel> I dont know if I can proceed with gnome instead of rebooting, but even if I could it wont be too handy
[14:21] <etheretic> no hidden files, logfiles.
[14:22] <Gnea> lqkwnel: you didn't run out of space on any drive, did you?
[14:22] <nastas> etheretic: browse the hard disk B and press ctrl+h
[14:22] <nastas> etheretic: you might see a .Trash file.\
[14:22] <etheretic> nastas: did. nada .files.
[14:22] <lqkwnel> no, 30gb free on ubuntu drive and it loads fine every other time
[14:23] <delx> Does anyone know if INOTIFY_FILE_CREATED is issued after a file has been completely written or as soon as it is created?
[14:23] <Gnea> lqkwnel: is this 10.04?
[14:23] <lqkwnel> Maverick is 10.10
[14:23] <Gnea> delx: depends what filesystem
[14:23] <nastas> etheretic: you mean that you tryed the ctrl+h?
[14:23] <delx> Gnea, ext3/4 for example?
[14:24] <Gnea> lqkwnel: oh, didn't see maverick. fresh install or did you upgrade?
[14:24] <grid_> Dr_Willis: how do you undo this commando ln -s /home/whatever /media/whatever ? and if you undo it, the files are only left at the /media/whatever ?
[14:24] <lqkwnel> upgrade
[14:24] <Gnea> delx: I'd check the documentation on those to see... usually it's in the source code
[14:25] <etheretic> I could format drive A, unmount B, copy everything from B to A, format A, and copy back.
[14:25] <grid_> Dr_Willis: and if you link them being root, does it take effect for every user?
[14:25] <etheretic> Silly there aren't built in failsafes against such situations.
[14:27] <etheretic> media$ fdisk Black1-5T-2/
[14:27] <etheretic> last_lba(): I don't know how to handle files with mode 40700
[14:27] <etheretic> You will not be able to write the partition table. Unable to read Black1-5T-2/
[14:27] <lqkwnel> any thoughts besides clean install?
[14:28] <krille> where to go if i need help with audio problems?

[14:28] <shadow98> how do i install apache mod status
[14:28] <shadow98> i did a aptitude search apache and don't see it
[14:30] <Pici> shadow98: It looks like its included in the -common apache2 package.
[14:32] <hvipen> hi, 1 question - best way to make a system backup in Ubuntu 10.10?? , using tar does it keep file rights?
[14:32] <shadow98> i don't see it the option to enable it in apache2.conf
[14:33] <Pici> shadow98: sudo a2enmod status, see /etc/apache2/mods-available/status.conf for setting options.
[14:33] <mbroeker> hvipen, tar as root will preserve file permissions
[14:33] <shadow98> http://www.debuntu.org/apache-activity-performance-mod_status
[14:34] <hvipen> so, sudo tar cv.. backup.tar.bz2 --exlude etc will do it?
[14:35] <brandoney> In Lucid I set eth0 with private IP and eth0:1 subinterface with public IP and have samba, nfs and other services bound to private IP only.
[14:35] <brandoney> Now maverick upgrade setup DHCP and got a public IP exposing everything to the romainian hackers.
[14:36] <mbroeker> hvipen, exclude /sys/ and /dev/ too
[14:36] <hvipen> ty vm
[14:36] <brandoney> so how do I setup subinterfaces or assign multiple nets to eth0 in maverick?

[14:36] <traubisoda> i'm trying to update my ubuntu 9.14 to 10.04 LTS. when i run apt-get dist-upgrade it says the 'ubuntu-desktop' will be removed. is that a problem?
[14:36] <bullgard4> [Maverick] Applications > Accessories > Tracker Search opens the window »Tracker Search Tool«. If I type in the Search field the term »interface«, Tracker will list 19 filenames. What directories did Tracker search to find these 19 files?
[14:37] <blakkheim> traubisoda: no
[14:37] <traubisoda> blakkheim thank you :)
[14:37] <etheretic> ActionParsnip: can you suggest a way to fix the problem without loosing data?
[14:38] <popey> traubisoda: thats now generally how we recommend you upgrade
[14:38] <ActionParsnip> etheretic: no idea dude, your space limitations is really crippling you
[14:38] <traubisoda> popey: what do you mean?

[14:39] <amijai> can any of you help me with Canola2?
[14:39] <popey> traubisoda: doing dist-upgrade to go up one release isn't the recommended approach, we recommend update-manager or do-release-upgrade, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LucidUpgrades
[14:39] <amijai> I added the PPA and installed it
[14:39] <amijai> but I can make it follow symlinks
[14:41] <traubisoda> popey: i'm skipping 9.10 and upgrade directly to 10.04. that's why i'm not using the update-manager. may it cause problems?
[14:41] <etheretic> forgot to mention, disk A is ext3, B ext4.
[14:41] <popey> traubisoda: we dont recommend it, and if it break you get top keep the parts
[14:41] <izinucs> popey: traubisoda dist-upgrade is used only to get newer versions of packages in your *current* release. It's never used to go from one release to another.
[14:41] <liquid> #security
[14:41] <SwedeMike> traubisoda: that upgrade path isn't tested, so yes, itmight cause problems.
[14:41] <popey> izinucs: it can be used, its just not recommended
[14:42] <izinucs> popey: can you show me an example of how dist-upgrade is used to go from one release to another?
[14:43] <traubisoda> izinucs i've edited the sources.list
[14:43] <popey> izinucs: as traubisoda editing sources.list and doing an update/dist-upgrade, it's do-able, but not recommended
[14:43] <hvipen> are other languages allowed in this channel?
[14:43] <grum419> Can anyone help? Upgraded and Gnome login doesn't recognise keyboard or mouse input anymore...
[14:43] <izinucs> popey: traubisoda ah!  that's how.. yea.. that's really not a good way to do it for sure..
[14:44] <bullgard4> hvipen: No.
[14:44] <hvipen> is there a swedish ubuntu channel?
[14:44] <traubisoda> popey: so can you tell me how to upgrade 2 versions the 'official' way?
[14:44] <popey> traubisoda: there is no official way to do that
[14:44] <mkz> maybe
[14:44] <bullgard4> hvipen: Try #ubuntu-se
[14:44] <hvipen> ty
[14:44] <popey> traubisoda: other than 'dont skip versions'
[14:45] <popey> traubisoda: dont get me wrong, it might work, but there's no guarantee because we never test that combination
[14:45] <traubisoda> popey: too bad:) thanks for your help anyway
[14:45] <popey> np
[14:45] <mkz> is there chinese?
[14:45] <bullgard4> traubisoda: There is an official way. Upgrade in 2 steps.
[14:45] <etheretic> Who here is best at fixing disk problems, and can this person pm me for a step-by-step solution?
[14:45] <izinucs> traubisoda: the only way to skip versions is from LTS to LTS.. or if you have a separate /home partition then a fresh install leaving the /home intact.
[14:45] <popey> izinucs: he's not on LTS
[14:45] <izinucs> figured that.
[14:46] <popey> also izinucs you dont need /home on a separate partition to do that
[14:46] <traubisoda> popey: I've done it like this many times, but ubuntu-desktop at the remove section caught my eye
[14:46] <popey> izinucs: you can just install over the top and use manual partitioning and it will delete old install and install over top, leaving /home intact
[14:46] <adam__> SIema
[14:46] <popey> Inferus: you just need to make sure you don't tick "format partition"
[14:46] <popey> gah
[14:47] <BluesKaj> howdy
[14:47] <popey> traubisoda: do you have many apps? you could do a clean install?
[14:47] <bullgard4> [Maverick] Applications > Accessories > Tracker Search opens the window »Tracker Search Tool«. If I type in the Search field the term »interface«, Tracker will list 19 filenames. What directories did Tracker search to find these 19 files?
[14:48] <traubisoda> popey: not so many, the PC is being used in an office (making docs, tables etc)
[14:51] <Dr_Willis> grid_:   a soft link is a special kind of file. remove it like you do any other file.
[14:52] <grid_> Dr_Willis: wouldnt it be a hard link?
[14:52] <grid_> ;)
[14:52] <azertyu> hi there
[14:52] <azertyu> i can't the /tmp partition what i have to do ?
[14:53] <azertyu> to find it again ?
[14:53] <jpds> azertyu: You're missing a verb there.
[14:53] <azertyu> find
[14:53] <grid_> Dr_Willis: what would be the file in this case? ln -s /home/whatever /media/whatever
[14:53] <azertyu> thanks
[14:53] <grid_> to remove
[14:53] <azertyu> i can't find /tmp partition
[14:54] <iceroot> azertyu: by default /tmp is not an extra partition, its part of /
[14:54] <ActionParsnip> azertyu: did you make one at install?
[14:54] <hrhodes3> This is nice
[14:54] <azertyu> i don't know
[14:54] <azertyu> where i can i find it ?
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> azertyu: if you dont know then it will just be a folder in /
[14:55] <azertyu> when i do fdisk -l i just only all disk
[14:55] <delx> Is it possible to create a "virtual" folder - and when I like to write to this virtual folder, for examplew in virtual/path/xy.png, then there's a callback which translates path/xy.png into a different path?
[14:55] <iceroot> azertyu: df -h is showing you the partitions very nice
[14:55] <azertyu> thx let me check
[14:55] <SingAlong_> hi all
[14:55] <xnorbie> hi all
[14:56] <iceroot> delx: softlink
[14:56] <xnorbie> please anybody can help me with boot process of ubuntu 10/04?
[14:56] <iceroot> !details | xnorbie
[14:56] <SingAlong_> I just got a new laptop and I'm trying to install ubuntu on it. I freed up some space and it sppears as "unstable" in the partition manager when i try to install ubuntu
[14:56] <delx> iceroot, but softlike does not allow to generate paths dynamically?
[14:56] <ActionParsnip> delx: you can symlink a folder to a different partition, the folder will appear to the OS as just a normal folder but the OS will actually be storing the data on the place you link to
[14:56] <xnorbie> i starting my ubuntu and have a sproblem: unreadhead-other main process (936) terminated with 4
[14:57] <xnorbie> and system is not react for long time
[14:57] <iceroot> delx: they point to another place, so everything you write into the softlinked folder is going into the real folder
[14:57] <azertyu> i don't have information about /tmp with df -h
[14:57] <xnorbie> i'm waiting to long
[14:57] <iceroot> azertyu: then /tmp is part of /
[14:57] <xnorbie> but nothing happens...
[14:57] <ActionParsnip> azertyu: neither do I, it's just a folder in /
[14:57] <iceroot> azertyu: there is no problem if /tmp is part of the /-partition
[14:57] <xnorbie> i pressed ctrl+alt+del and system goes for reeboot
[14:57] <Newa> how can I report a bug on user switching? Quite often, when trying to switch to another user's desk in ubuntu 10.04 the system freezes in a black screen and doesn't react to keypresses anymore
[14:57] <xnorbie> how i can solid this problem? plesase help
[14:58] <delx> iceroot, ActionParsnip, I know about links, but the problem is: I don't know the file name before it arrives. I'd like to store the filename in some sub-folder (related to the md5 hash), for example a/3/f/e/file.png - so I can't create the links before the file arrives!
[14:58] <xnorbie> !details
[14:58] <delx> I need a callback WHEN the file arrives...in order to generate the path
[14:59] <DBeets> Is ~.xprofile the recommend location for resolution settings in Maverick?
[14:59] <ks3> delx, The simplest solution would probably be a cron job to move the files and create symlinks
[14:59] <xnorbie> iceroot, have any idea?
[14:59] <azertyu> ok what should contain the /tmp folder ?
[15:00] <azertyu> normally
[15:00] <xnorbie> can i enter to the some mode by some hot keys to try changing something in the system?
[15:00] <xnorbie> system is Ubuntu 10.04
[15:00] <tensorpudding> azertyu: /tmp is full of temporary files
[15:00] <xnorbie> anybody heard me?
[15:01] <tensorpudding> azertyu: sockets used for IPC, for the most part
[15:02] <tensorpudding> azertyu: but it's also a place for dumping temporary text and data
[15:02] <tensorpudding> azertyu: basically anything which is not permanent, that needs to be accessible to programs
[15:02] <SingAlong_> anyone?
[15:02] <azertyu> is it possible that ppl can use that for backup ?
[15:03] <tensorpudding> azertyu: define what you mean by using it for backup
[15:03] <azertyu> i  mean on  a server
[15:03] <df> 我爱你
[15:03] <azertyu> i mean for saving data on a server
[15:03] <azertyu> for a example
[15:03] <tensorpudding> azertyu: all the files on it get purged on reboot, so if you meant using it for storage it's the antithesis of a good idea
[15:04] <xnorbie> ok there is my question again. I have the Ubuntu 10.04 TLS system. And when i tried to boot up i get halting in boot process... after the checking of my disks i read this message: unreadhead_other main process (923) terminated with 4... and nothing... boot process paused. no messages no reaction... only ctrlaltdel is working wich rebooted the system... what can i do?
[15:05] <Sean93> i have a process (rtorrent) that i cant kill. as far as i know its not a zombie because its still using alot of cpu. how do i kill it?
[15:06] <xnorbie> Sean93, try in shell: ps aux|grep rtorrent
[15:06] <xnorbie> Sean93, killall rtorrent
[15:06] <unimatrix9> from bash ? gnome terminal  , killall rtorrent ?
[15:06] <unimatrix9> ah
[15:06] <Newa> xnorbie: you might have unnecessary entries in your /etc/fstab: http://tech--help.blogspot.com/2009/12/ubuntu-solved-ureadahead-other-main.html
[15:06] <xnorbie> Sean93, OR: kill -9 PIDofRTORRENTprocess
[15:07] <azertyu> i say that because i own a dedicate server
[15:07] <sonny> coz_, hi!
[15:07] <azertyu> where i used to reboot my pc
[15:08] <azertyu> and i often got on /tmp  a folder and files
[15:08] <azertyu> with lots of data
[15:09] <azertyu> so there is no purging data on /tmp
[15:09] <xnorbie> Newa, thanks bro!
[15:09] <Sean93> kill -9 PID doesnt kill it
[15:09] <azertyu> am i right or not ?
[15:09] <tensorpudding> azertyu: there's lots of data in /tmp when you startup, because lots of programs use it
[15:09] <xnorbie> Sean93, are you root?
[15:09] <xnorbie> Sean93, sudo kill -9 PID
[15:09] <Sean93> ah no im not
[15:09] <xnorbie> Sean93, can you try this?: sudo kill -9 PID
[15:09] <coz_> sonny,   hey guy
[15:09] <tensorpudding> azertyu: for instance, pulseaudio, that starts at boot
[15:10] <tensorpudding> azertyu: but even if it wasn't purged, storing those files there is inappropriate
[15:10] <Sean93> xnorbie: it still wont die
[15:10] <sparky8251> Sean93: PID stands for "process ID"
[15:10] <sonny> coz_, remember me? we talked yesterday
[15:10] <tensorpudding> azertyu: or at least, as inappropriate as storing them any old place on the filesystem
[15:11] <coz_> sonny,  yes :)
[15:11] <BlaDe^> Hig uys i'm trying to build php and get this error: libtool: link: `ext/date/php_date.lo' is not a valid libtool object
[15:11] <BlaDe^> what's the cause?
[15:11] <Sean93> i used "sudo kill -9 17855 26308" there are 2 instances running
[15:11] <sonny> coz_, i installed lubuntu
[15:11] <zealiod> is it possible to configure an ethernet card to accept all 802.11q tagged packets? Currently any packets that are tagged are being dropped
[15:11] <xnorbie> Sean93, reboot? ))
[15:11] <tensorpudding> azertyu: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/01/19/changing-the-tmp-cleanup-frequency/ configures the frequency that tmp is dumped
[15:11] <coz_> sonny,  and...you like it?  .. yes?
[15:12] <azertyu> thanks tensorpudding
[15:12] <sonny> coz_, yeah, it's good
[15:12] <coz_> sonny,  there you go :)
[15:12] <sonny> coz, i can install libgtk2.0-dev
[15:12] <sonny> coz, but my problem dosn't solve :D i should contact to support of my application
[15:12] <coz_> sonny,  :)
[15:13] <sonny> coz_, anyway i just want to say thank you :)
[15:13] <coz_> sonny,  no problem :) I kind of thought you might like lubuntu
[15:14] <Kaidelong> so many GTK progrms have these unresizable dialog boxes with buttons to close them trapped below my screen
[15:14] <Kaidelong> anything I can do about this or do I have to struggle with windows bigger than my screen that can't be moved up or resized?
[15:14] <xnorbie> how i can mount the /dev/sda5 with RW rights?
[15:14] <tensorpudding> Kaidelong: Alt+F8 allows you to resize a window
[15:14] <jrib> xnorbie: what filesystem?
[15:14] <tensorpudding> xnorbie: what filesystem/
[15:14] <xnorbie> EXT4
[15:14] <sonny> coz_, yeah it's good enough for me
[15:14] <jrib> !permissions > xnorbie
[15:14] <xnorbie> mount /dev/sda5 /media/somemedia -o rw?
[15:15] <tensorpudding> xnorbie: rw is implicit, you don't need to specify it
[15:15] <jrib> xnorbie: ext4 supports permissions, set them as you wish (see ubottu)
[15:15] <coz_> sonny,  cool...and later if you want... you can always install something else for a test :)
[15:15] <Kaidelong> tensorpudding: alt-F8 allows me to make the things bigger but not smaller
[15:16] <papo> hello. I'm wondering whether I should install the 64bit or the 32bit version of maverick. I always went with the 32bit version so far for compatibility with flash and wine and stuff like that, but as far as I understand these packages just depend on some 32bit compatibility packages... so what about other advantages/disadvantages?
[15:16] <tensorpudding> Kaidelong: trying hitting the left and down arrows
[15:16] <xnorbie> umm
[15:16] <xnorbie> i dont understand (
[15:16] <jrib> xnorbie: what don't you understand exactly?
[15:16] <xnorbie> i have /etc/fstab file on my mounted media and i wnat to edit him
[15:16] <xnorbie> but have not permissions
[15:17] <xnorbie> what can i do?
[15:17] <Kaidelong> tensorpudding: it moves the cursor but it doesn't actually resize the window
[15:17] <tensorpudding> xnorbie: are you using sudo?
[15:17] <jrib> xnorbie: did you read the page I had ubottu send you?
[15:17] <tensorpudding> Kaidelong: hit enter
[15:17] <azertyu> when o
[15:17] <xnorbie> yes i'm from root shell
[15:17] <xnorbie> sudo su
[15:17] <xnorbie> umm
[15:17] <xnorbie> wait a moment
[15:17] <ZykoticK9> papo, if you need to ask - you should probably go 32bit.  If you decide to go 64bit you should have 4GB or Memory or more - and you might want to look into the "getlibs" script.  good luck, whichever you choose.
[15:17] <azertyu> when you run a server how sysadmin does for backup data on a server ?
[15:17] <azertyu> how that it happen ?
[15:17] <tensorpudding> xnorbie: is your media mounted read-write? check the return of 'mount'
[15:18] <Kaidelong> tensorpudding: enter makes the cursor go away but doesn't resize anything
[15:18] <xnorbie> ok
[15:18] <azertyu> " backup data on a server " with OS ubuntu ?
[15:18] <tensorpudding> Kaidelong: maybe it's a window that can't be resized
[15:18] <ZykoticK9> !backup | azertyu
[15:18] <Kaidelong> tensorpudding: that is what I think, there are tons of them and they're all bigger than my screen resolution
[15:18] <Kaidelong> isn't there something I can do to metacity to get it to not do this to me?
[15:18] <Kaidelong> or GTK
[15:19] <rooks> what is the best most mature software for creation of diagrams in linux?
[15:19] <Sean93> any time i start this torrent the program frezes. what should i do?
[15:19] <tensorpudding> Kaidelong: what program is this?
[15:19] <TanLizxxx> how to rm a file which file name contains a '-'?
[15:19] <sparky8251> Sean93: get a different one?
[15:19] <tensorpudding> Kaidelong: I don't have any problem using Alt+F8 to resize GTK dialog boxes
[15:19] <Kaidelong> xchat-gnome has a preferences dialog that does that
[15:19] <ZykoticK9> TanLizxxx, try using double quotes around the "file name"
[15:19] <Kaidelong> evolution's starting wizard
[15:20] <Kaidelong> I can, interestingly, maximize them, but that doesn't help
[15:20] <Sean93> sparky8251: program or torrent
[15:20] <tensorpudding> maximize should make them fit in the desktop anyway
[15:20] <Kaidelong> it makes the bottom cut off
[15:20] <ZykoticK9> Kaidelong, you can also hold shift down and drag windows around with your mouse.
[15:20] <Kaidelong> then there is strange behavior where clicking the window makes it move
[15:20] <papo> ZykoticK9: ok thank you. I have 4 GB of RAM. I also understand the physical addressing problems etc., but I just don't know about the actual impacts... I guess it's a theory vs. practice thing
[15:20] <pjarnahom> please any one give me lucid DVD repository links
[15:20] <Kaidelong> but you can't actually do anything with the window anymore
[15:20] <Sean93> sparky8251: ive tried transmission and rtorrent, both freze
[15:21] <TanLizxxx> ZykoticK9: does not work.mv: unrecognized option '-------.jpg'
[15:21] <tensorpudding> Kaidelong: yeah, alt+drag moves windows around
[15:21] <Kaidelong> I'll try that
[15:21] <sparky8251> Sean93: maybe a different torrent then
[15:21] <jgay> re: bottom of screens being cut off. If I wanted ot fix the behavior of Unity, where I would I start?
[15:21] <ZykoticK9> papo, i'm very happy with 64bit on my desktop - but it takes a little more "hacking" to get things working sometimes.
[15:21] <azertyu> \ban jgay
[15:21] <TanLizxxx> that file name is --------.jpg , i want to rename it.
[15:21] <jgay> And, for my previous question, might I be better off asking this questino elsewhere?
[15:21] <jgay> azertyu, huh?
[15:21] <Kaidelong> tensorpudding: dragging works where using the titlebar to drag fails. Thank you.
[15:21] <azertyu> fuck change your name
[15:21] <ZykoticK9> TanLizxxx, did you use, double quotes "
[15:22] <IdleOne> !language | azertyu
[15:22] <jpds> azertyu: Please be civil.
[15:22] <jgay> azertyu, it's my family name
[15:22] <azertyu> shit
[15:22] <jgay> my name is Joshua Gay
[15:22] <TanLizxxx> the command like this: mv "-----.jpg" x.jpg
[15:22] <ZykoticK9> TanLizxxx, that looks fine
[15:22] <papo> ZykoticK9: OK, I'm not afraid of that, so I'll just try the 64bit build and fall back to 32bit if it's too cumbersome to maintain. Thank you for your advice
[15:23] <TanLizxxx> ZykoticK9: I once read a blog about that.but forgot it.
[15:23] <Sean93> any time i start this torrent the program freezes. what should i do? ive tries transmission and rtorrent
[15:23] <PeterDarkness> Hey, I'm having some trouble with the ATI fglrx driver
[15:24] <ZykoticK9> TanLizxxx, lol - i see your problem!
[15:24] <thevishy> !chess
[15:24] <thevishy> !chess
[15:24] <PeterDarkness> Searched the forums and nothing came up. Whenever I try to shutdown or restart, the screen locks up with black\white lines
[15:24] <blakkheim> ...
[15:24] <TanLizxxx> ZykoticK9: ?
[15:24] <thevishy> which is the best interface for chess
[15:24] <Tanvir> What is the best audio-video converter for ubuntu?
[15:24] <ZykoticK9> TanLizxxx, i just tried to create a file with -- for filename, i get the same error as you.
[15:24] <iceroot> Tanvir: the one you like most
[15:25] <glaucous> I'm having problems that some applications (games, wine, minecraft (woo)) get somewhat low FPS when CPU governor/powersaver is set to ondemand. This is fixed by setting it to performance (constant max speed). Would I get better results with ondemand if I changed cpufreq/ondemand/up_threshold and sampling_rate?
[15:25] <ZykoticK9> TanLizxxx, if possible, i'd try renaming it with a GUI program...  good luck man.  I got no further ideas.
[15:25] <tensorpudding> Tanvir: if you're looking for one and have no idea, try Arista Transcoder
[15:25] <TanLizxxx> ZykoticK9: lol..
[15:25] <Tanvir> tensorpudding, that will covers maximum file formates?
[15:25] <TanLizxxx> ZykoticK9: TKX.
[15:26] <Sean93> how do i use skdownloader with chrome???
[15:26] <Bauldrick> what would cause directories to NOT appear when plugging in a USB device (they are there but don't show up)
[15:26] <thevishy> maybe handbrake?
[15:27] <tensorpudding> Tanvir: It's designed for transcoding video to mobile formats, so it might not have everything
[15:27] <Tanvir> tensorpudding, I like a converter that will cover almost all. Like Formate Factory in windows.
[15:28] <blakkheim> Tanvir: ffmpeg
[15:28] <etheretic> One of my external hds, a 1.5tb wd, says 0 bytes free in nautilus, and 9.64gb free in gparted.
[15:28] <tensorpudding> Tanvir: It supports WebM, H.264 and Theora as outputs.
[15:28] <Guest1172> Bauldrick: If they begin with a  .  (dot) then they are hidden. It also depends on the format of the drive and permissions it is mounted with.
[15:29] <tensorpudding> Tanvir: If you want lots of different formats, you'll have to use a tool like transcode, which doesn't have a GUI but is well-supported
[15:29] <tensorpudding> Tanvir: http://www.transcoding.org/
[15:30] <Tanvir> tensorpudding, but I need the GUI. :(
[15:30] <Bauldrick> Guest1172 - it automounts to /media/usb1 - most of the directories I can see , but a few (most important ) aren't there.. (no they aen't '.'
[15:30] <badpenguin86> HP with beats audio will not use good laptop speakers. Help?
[15:30] <PeterDarkness> Hey, does anyone know anything about the ATI fglrx driver?
[15:30] <xinel> fdisk and parted cannot see my hard drive but lshw -C disk does, any ideas on how I can format it?
[15:31] <Quantum_Ion> learn to use the command line
[15:31] <tensorpudding> Tanvir: Handbrake might support transcoding
[15:31] <Tanvir> Okay tensorpudding, thanks for your help. I'll try to find out some other time.
[15:31] <ZykoticK9> PeterDarkness, ya, ATI sucks for linux.  That's what "I" know, perhaps you should ask a more specific question.  Good luck man.
[15:31] <thevishy> Tanvir, you can use Form Factory with Wine - thats one way
[15:31] <rusty149> Bauldrick: so I assume you can see these directories on another computer? windows?   Try: sudo ls -la /media/usb1
[15:31] <PeterDarkness> Well, whenever I reboot or shutdown, the screen gets covered in black\white lines and I have to do a hardshutdown, ZykoticK9
[15:31] <thevishy> !winff
[15:31] <JohnnyL> how do I remove (or even list for that matter) the package for apache2?
[15:31] <thevishy> try winff allso
[15:32] <k5673> !dosbox
[15:32] <Tanvir> thevishy, Wine supports Formate Factory? You sure?
[15:32] <thevishy> Yeah
[15:32] <PeterDarkness> I'm tempted just to disable the driver, because I had a corrupted update a while back due to this issue
[15:32] <Tanvir> thevishy, Hmm.
[15:33] <Tanvir> Okay thank you thevishy!
[15:33] <tensorpudding> Tanvir: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=17893
[15:33] <thevishy> Np !
[15:33] <tensorpudding> Tanvir: some version of it works, anyway
[15:33] <Sean93>  how do i use skdownloader with chrome???
[15:33] <ZykoticK9> PeterDarkness, sorry man, I don't use ATI at all - so I'm no help.
[15:34] <PeterDarkness> :\
[15:34] <genosh> Is there some good tutorial on getting good fonts quality on Ubuntu?
[15:34] <Quantum_Ion> I remember ATI back in the days had great Linux support
[15:34] <genosh> Specially in Firefox the rendering is a bit bad.
[15:35] <ZykoticK9> Quantum_Ion, a LONG time ago, my first linux 3d acceleration was on ATI cards.  But that was with open source drivers at the time.
[15:35] <Bauldrick> hmmm, I have to be root - sudo ls -la /media/usb1 doesn't show them, but when root I can
[15:35] <trojan_spike> can some1 tell me where the application shortcuts for start menu are located??
[15:36] <ZykoticK9> trojan_spike, ? alacarte is the program name
[15:36] <BluesKaj> Quantum_Ion, well, nvidia support for the older cards isn't so great either especially the geforce 8 series
[15:36] <Sean93>  how do i use skdownloader with chrome???
[15:36] <Quantum_Ion> okay
[15:37] <ZykoticK9> trojan_spike, i would "guess" it is stored in a database or gconf somewhere.  (they aren't shortcuts like they once where)
[15:37] <Quantum_Ion> BlueEagle, maybe it is best to deal with an Intel Graphics card
[15:37] <atticus> hey, does anyone know of any good guides out there about using ubuntu securely for a 350 workstation network? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1605462
[15:37] <TanLizxxx> ZykoticK9:  i figure out.  just write like this:mv ./----------.jpg x.jpg
[15:37] <genosh> BluesKaj: 8600gt here, works pretty well.
[15:37] <rusty149> Bauldrick: the most unusual part is that only some directories do this. Can you see any difference with them? I has to be permission based. Check the mounting options
[15:37] <trojan_spike> are they all over the place then?
[15:38] <ZykoticK9> TanLizxxx, NICE.  thanks ;)
[15:38] <BluesKaj> Quantum_Ion, my 7600gt is just fine on this newerpc , but the 8400gs on my older desktop sucks
[15:39] <Guest93138> salutare

[15:39] <Diana214> can anyone help me solve a desktop effects issue, I installed 10.10 but my desktop effects turn off after launching any application
[15:39] <ZykoticK9> trojan_spike, to edit the menu, use System / Preferences / Main Menu

[15:39] <badpenguin86> HP with beats audio will not use good laptop speakers. Help?

[15:40] <Fuhre> Can i install Ubuntu inside of Windows ?
[15:40] <BluesKaj> genosh, the 8400gs that is
[15:40] <Diana214> I installed 10.10 but my desktop effects turn off after launching any application, How can I enabled them?
[15:40] <trojan_spike> lol,, i know that mate,, just putting stack in cairo
[15:40] <defrysk> !wubi | Fuhre
[15:40] <ZykoticK9> Fuhre, Yes it's called Wubi (i don't personally recommend it)
[15:40] <genosh> BluesKaj: ouch.
[15:40] <jgay> Diana214,  I can help
[15:40] <jpds> pjarnahom: http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/DVDs/ubuntu/lucid/release/
[15:40] <Fuhre> ZykoticK9, why not ?
[15:41] <genosh> BluesKaj: no problems here, even quake 4 and games work well.
[15:41] <BluesKaj> genosh, which driver you using ..the current ?
[15:41] <ZykoticK9> Fuhre, making Ubuntu reply on Windows is a bad idea IN MY OPINION (opinion only)
[15:41] <pjarnahom> jpds, thank you...
[15:41] <ZykoticK9> s/reply/rely
[15:41] <genosh> BluesKaj: yes, 260.19.06 according to nvidia-settings.
[15:41] <Fuhre> Okej, either i do dual-boot or i installit inside windows, don't know yet
[15:41] <jgay> Diana214, when you go under Press System → Preferences → Advanced Desktop Effects  what does it say?
[15:42] <ZykoticK9> Fuhre, dual boot is a better idea (again, in my opinion)
[15:42] <BluesKaj> yup genosh , the same
[15:42] <lyrae> how do i change my computer's name?
[15:42] <Fuhre> Okej, i think i will go with your opinion :)
[15:42] <lyrae> aka, what shows up after @ on terminal
[15:42] <Fuhre> thanks :)
[15:42] <Diana214> jgay, well for some reson when I enable desktop effects and maximize a window it disables the effects
[15:42] <shane4ubuntu> ok, I'm importing my large, extensive, vast f-spot db into shotwell, is it going to take my pictures and duplicate them and store them on my disk twice?
[15:42] <ZykoticK9> !hostname | lyrae
[15:42] <jgay> Diana214, sorry, I maent, ystem → Preferences → Appearance → Visual Effects
[15:42] <genosh> BluesKaj: do you have desktop effects activated?
[15:43] <lyrae> ZykoticK9, thanks
[15:43] <Diana214> jgay, it says none
[15:43] <Steven_Krebs> best would be to through out your windows and fully switch to ubuntu.
[15:43] <Steven_Krebs> *throw
[15:43] <glaucous> Why doesn't cpufreq-selector work in crontab (as user)?
[15:43] <jgay> Diana214, ok, Select Extra effects to enable more advanced visual effects.
[15:43] <Diana214> jgay, i have an ATI CARD
[15:44] <uLinux> nvidia gives less problems
[15:44] <BluesKaj> genosh, yes,, but that shouldn't make a lot of difference , the card is supposed to handle those effects without any probs
[15:44] <jgay> Diana214, do you know what model card you have?
[15:44] <Diana214> jgay, the same thing happens
[15:45] <genosh> BluesKaj: yes i think so, although it might make a difference if the driver is buggy, that is... make things more manageable.
[15:46] <Diana214> jgay, is a radeon cd
[15:46] <Diana214> card
[15:46] <ZykoticK9> Diana214, find the output from "lspci | grep -i vga" for exact model
[15:48] <jgay> Diana214, you just enter what ZykoticK9 wrote (without the quotes) into the terminal.
[15:48] <BluesKaj> genosh, at first i thought the card was defective , but after installing it on a windows 7pc I became convinced lucid and maverick support for my card sucks
[15:48] <Diana214> ZykoticK9, 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV380 [Radeon X600 (PCIE)]
[15:49] <ZykoticK9> Diana214, the output isn't for me, but for the channel, now everyone knows your card.  Best of luck (i'm no help with ATI issues)

[15:50] <Quantum_Ion> you have to becareful what you buy today a lot of the products just are not really that good anymore

[15:55] <Guest5336> Am thinking of installing Ubuntu 10.10 on my HP 625 so am gonna boot from the live cd and see that everything works. Is there any app in ubuntu that make driver download easier or do i have to do every singel one manually?
[15:56] <th3hate> is it possible to install unity shell on ubuntu 10.10 desktop?
[15:57] <ZykoticK9> Guest5336, sorta - most drivers should be in the kernel and looked after automatically, for any others try System / Admin / Additional Drivers

[16:02] <TheGeek1024> hi i just created a live USB for version 10.04 how do I disable the install and try Ubuntu prompt?
[16:04] <PeterDarkness> Well, I found a workaround for my driver issue. I can't reboot or shutdown from the GUI without hanging
[16:04] <Codenut> Hey there
[16:04] <PeterDarkness> So I'm going to have to do that through the terminal
[16:04] <Codenut> I have a couple of questions
[16:05] <uLinux> !mint
[16:05] <Codenut> concerning wine and getting serial ports to work with programs within wine
[16:05] <TheGeek1024> I just created a live USB for version 10.04 how do I disable the install and try Ubuntu prompt?
[16:06] <Codenut> If I were to simply type the ln command into a dos window, does that stick or go away every power down?
[16:06] <mankeletor> Is this the best distro for an AMD Phenom desktop PC?
[16:06] <iceroot> Codenut: this is ubuntu-support not windows/dos-support
[16:06] <incandenza> TheGeek1024: just boot from the USB and don't run the installer
[16:07] <xro> hi, i'm looking for a soft the allow to read sound and video in slow motion.... do you know one?
[16:08] <tacomaster> mankeletor: "best distro" is a matter of opinion
[16:08] <TheGeek1024> icanhazAMD: so i cannot just turn off the prompt?
[16:09] <th3hate> is it possible to install unity shell on ubuntu 10.10 desktop instead of gnome shell?
, what do you need to do with your pc?
[16:09] <incandenza> TheGeek1024: when you boot the USB drive, it will put you in the ubuntu desktop.  it won't install unless you double-click the 'install ubuntu' icon
[16:10] <tarzeau> prakash: did you study physics?
[16:10] <mankeletor> All that i need is support for Quard Core processor
[16:10] <raidghost> A good ubuntu compatible computer? ASUS G73JW 17.3" Full HD
[16:10] <raidghost> GeForce GTX 460,Core i7-740QM,6GB RAM,500GB SSD/HDD,DVD±RW,webcam,BT,W7H
[16:11] <xro> mankeletor, so ubuntu 10  supports it (64bits versions)
[16:12] <dalton2345> hi everyone, is there a program like ccleaner for linux?
[16:12] <anon33_> what's the difference between apt-get and aptitude
[16:13] <TheGeek1024> incandenza: on mine it doesn't do that
[16:13] <root_> Hi
[16:13] <jemadux> will natty have no gnome ?
[16:13] <incandenza> TheGeek1024: what does it do?
[16:13] <root_> I have two nvidia graphic cards with a total of 4 monitors. How should I configure it so I can use them all simultaneously (one user)?
[16:13] <mankeletor> xro, top is telling that avidemux uses 199%... but for Quad core processor.. shouldn't have to be 399%? Im using 32bit Ubuntu 10.04
[16:13] <TheGeek1024> it goes to he prompt like the live CD does
[16:14] <TheGeek1024> incandenza
[16:14] <jemadux> wi root_
[16:14] <root_> jemadux, ?
[16:14] <xro> mankeletor, what you mean when you said 199%... do you have an i7?
[16:15] <jemadux> root_: nothing ....
[16:15] <TheGeek1024> incandenza but then i have to choose try Ubuntu each time
[16:16] <mankeletor> xro, AMD Phenom(tm) 9950 Quad-Core Processor
[16:16] <incandenza> TheGeek1024: oh, like the boot selection?  yeah, I think you just have to do that
[16:16] <TheGeek1024> incandenza nono not rhe boot selection after booting
[16:17] <xro> mankeletor, no experience with amd... but with intel i7 ubuntu 10 woks fine... the 4 process are multi threaded and it like i have 8cpu... All are use when it's needed....
[16:17] <incandenza> TheGeek1024: sorry, I haven't booted the live CD/USB in a while so I can't quite remember which prompts appear
[16:18] <xro> mankeletor, but you need some app that are able to use all you CPU or use many different app
[16:18] <incandenza> TheGeek1024: maybe you want to set up a persistent USB install: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[16:19] <berefeira> hellos

[16:20] <agentgasmask> Hi all. Is it posible to "rip" songs off an IPOD? Songs are in proprietary Apple format. Looking to go to mp3 or ogg.
[16:20] <berefeira> gnome places broke, showing appearance..help?
[16:20] <mankeletor> xro, hmmm that's all about.. i see... maybe i can recompile it from source adding some specific flags for  multi threaded
[16:20] <TheGeek1024> incandenza i will give that a try
[16:21] <xro> mankeletor, do you have already installed your ubuntu10 64bits?
[16:22] <mankeletor> xro, nope... i just got the 32bit version
[16:22] <recon69_lap> hmm, quite in here, ubuntu must be working well :)
[16:22] <mankeletor> xro, i386
[16:23] <xro> mankeletor, you need the 64bits version to get a better support...
[16:24] <mankeletor> xro, well i wil go to download it.. thx dud =)
[16:24] <recon69_lap> the cam is a Bus 007 Device 003: ID 093a:2900 Pixart Imaging, Inc.
[16:25] <xro> mankeletor, install it the open your sytem monitor to see how many cpu do you have
[16:25] <xro> mankeletor, finally code a little loop that need cpu and start as many as you have cpu...
[16:25] <xro> mankeletor, you should see all your cpu at 100%

[16:43] <Crash1hd> W4RH4WK, but on windows (I realize that this is the ubuntu channel) but I was hoping there was a way to do it on ubuntu through the network
[16:43] <lallu_> which has more graphics interface   ubuntu gnome or ubuntu kde
[16:43] <Crash1hd> W4RH4WK, over smb or something
[16:43] <Kylindra> Uhm.. for some reason I cannot uninstall phpbb3. It's telling me that "/var/lib/dpkg/info/phpbb3.prerem phpbb3 apache 50: webserver apache is not supported."
[16:43] <Kylindra> ... except I have apache2 installed.

[16:43] <Kylindra> -prerem +prerm

[16:44] <whiten0ise> yairgo: with apt-get
[16:44] <W4RH4WK> Crash1hd: there is also a little tool / script language called autoit
[16:45] <yairgo> whiten0ise: thx
[16:45] <W4RH4WK> Crash1hd: maybe that can help you out, it offers a lot more options than batch
[16:45] <Crash1hd> W4RH4WK, thanks :)
[16:45] <Xlaits> I really dislike being ignored here, people. And I'm on a time limit...
[16:45] <juandp77_> hi all how can i install pae kernels in maverick
[16:45] <W4RH4WK> Crash1hd: your welcome
[16:45] <Kylindra> We can't even help you with a generic 'error 2'
[16:45] <Kylindra> Assuming anyones' here who can.
[16:45] <Kylindra> So.
[16:45] <Dj> join #basslover
[16:45] <athena_> just use the terminal to install. like "sudo apt-get install openoffice"
[16:45] <ENC_CERCANOS> HI
[16:45] <Xlaits> I gave the specifics a moment ago.
[16:45] <maco> Xlaits: you havent asked an answerable question.
[16:46] <jink> Xlaits: In a single line would help. :)
[16:46] <ZykoticK9> juandp77_, i was under the impression it installs automatically if it detects more then 4GB RAM...
[16:46] <maco> Xlaits: you asked about an "error 2" which is completely meaningless
[16:46] <jink> An error 2 in AweMUD
[16:46] <Xlaits> jink, I did.
[16:46] <jink> Xlaits: Not in a single line. ;)
[16:46] <Pici> Xlaits: Can you just ask again? :)
[16:47] <juandp77_> ZykoticK9,I will take a look at that one more question its beeter to install 32bits with pae or 64bit
[16:47] <Xlaits> I'm trying to compile, and install AweMUD server. After using the make or make install command, I get, as an output, error 2. I have a forum thread with the full error codes on it, if that might help.
[16:47] <ENC_CERCANOS> hiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[16:47] <goltoof_> Xlaits:  linky link
[16:48] <ZykoticK9> juandp77_, 64!  PAE is a hack, it can't let any one program use more then 3.?GB memory, where 64bit can.
[16:48] <W4RH4WK> Xlaits: *going to have a look*

[16:48] <ENC_CERCANOS> help me
[16:48] <jink> Xlaits: See?  It isn't that hard, really. ;)
[16:48] <Kylindra> h... Oh, I see what's wrong with this
[16:48] <Kylindra> It's got some damaged packages
[16:48] <jink> ENC_CERCANOS: You haven't specified what you want help with.
[16:48] <Xlaits> jink, sorry. I wasn't as verbose as that time.
[16:48]  * Kylindra goes to fix the soruces and sees if I can uninstall phpbb3 then
[16:49] <Kylindra> aha.
[16:49] <etheretic> actionparsnip: still there? got hold of a new 1.5 tb drive now.
[16:49] <juandp77_> ZykoticK9, thanks a lot
[16:49] <Kylindra> Uninstalling mysql-common reinstalls all of mysql and some postgresql stuff.
[16:49] <Kylindra> ...
[16:49] <Kylindra> Wait, what? *heads off to google this(*
[16:50] <ENC_CERCANOS> hi jink
[16:50] <ENC_CERCANOS> thx
[16:50] <ENC_CERCANOS> is on openldap, install any version 4.2.1921?
[16:50] <Xlaits> -loves his dual monitor setup, having terminal on one monitor, and irc in the other-
[16:50] <spectre^> Yeah my 2nd monitor is my TV
[16:50] <spectre^> I like to keep movies going in it
[16:51] <ZykoticK9> etheretic, AP isn't here right now...
[16:51] <spectre^> while I irc/whatever
[16:51] <Xlaits> spectre^: Yeah, I have an old PC monitor hooked up to my laptop.
[16:51] <eda_> How can I get my floppy drive to read my Floppies? I mount it, click on it and a File manager window opens, but it is blank. Thanx ---ed
[16:51] <W4RH4WK> Xlaits: oldschool setup ftw
[16:52] <Xlaits> W$RH$WK: Thanks. My other PC's an Alienware.
[16:52] <athena_> maybe it doesn't work
[16:52] <Eua> =-O
[16:52] <ZykoticK9> eda_, in a terminal I'd try "df" and see if floppy is listed, and if it's 1.4MB free (meaning nothing on the  floppy disk)
[16:52] <jink> Xlaits: configure ran without problems?
[16:52] <ENC_CERCANOS> read me?
[16:52] <eda_> I have some valuable Assembly language programs on them + other import stuff.
[16:53] <etheretic> ZykoticK9: ah. know anything about situations where you end up with 0 bytes free on an external hd and it won't unmount?
[16:53] <Xlaits> jink: I believe so, let me run it again, and check.
[16:53] <robinro> Hi, is it possible to merge to gnome-keyrings? I have ones called "login" and "default" but only login gets unlocked on login and networkmanager stores everything in "default"
[16:53] <ZykoticK9> etheretic, not really...  "cd / && sudo umount /mount/point"?
[16:54] <Xlaits> jink: would you like the output?
[16:54] <jink> Xlaits: If it runs fine, I trust you. ;)
[16:54] <tim__> hey whenever I log into ubuntu I have to put a password into the key ring manager. I appreciate this but I have to do it twice. So total I have to put my password in three times to log into ubuntu. How can I fix this?
[16:54] <Kylindra> hm, OK, so.
[16:54] <Xlaits> jink: ok, it seems all fine and dandy after ./configure
[16:54] <jink> Xlaits: Hold on.
[16:55] <taroven> tim__: Resetting the keyring manager password to blank (nothing there) will make it not ask you for it anymore.
[16:55] <Kylindra> Nope, that hasn't fixed phpbb3
[16:55] <jink> Xlaits: I get the same error. :)  Very nice. ^__^

how to
[16:56] <whiten0ise> bah, first time i ran the livecd, wireless worked fine. second time, it refuses to connect. just goes on and on then tells me it needs a key. i know it needs a key. i gave it the correct one. same one as last time.
[16:56] <whiten0ise> buggy drivers, i guess.
[16:57] <ZykoticK9> eda_, they your floppy isn't mounted - it will show up as sdX where X is your next available drive letter
[16:57] <taroven> tim__ / althena_: Google is your best friend sometimes. =P
[16:57] <ZykoticK9> etheretic, try logging out and back in perhaps?
[16:57] <rusivi> whiten0ise one thing you may want to try as a workaround is changing the encryption type on your router
[16:57] <tim__> taroven, yes it is my best friend more often than not...
[16:57] <Xlaits> whiten0ise: try connecting to a wireless connection that dosn't have a password.
[16:57] <taroven> tim__: ^_^
[16:57] <whiten0ise> except i want my network passworded.
[16:58] <brick> Can DeVeDe convert ISO files to ISO DVD?
[16:58] <etheretic> ZykoticK9: thought about shutting down, disconnect the two errant disks, connect/formt the new one, and salvage what I can from the two 1st disks with testdisk.
[16:58] <athena_> what's iso dvd?
[16:58] <ZykoticK9> brick, typically DeVeDe converts a video file to a DVD iso...
[16:58] <Xlaits> jink: how's progress?
[16:58] <brick> Right
[16:58] <brick> I mean, converting Video files to an ISO.
[16:59] <LOGAN> hi is it possible to have a custom icon for a flash USB drive ?
[16:59] <tomcatjosh> LOGAN: Probably
[16:59] <kneaux> Something's disabling my networking every time I boot
[16:59] <eda_> ZykoticK9, The floppy icon shows it's mounted
[16:59] <athena_> just burn it to a blank dvd
[16:59] <brick> I mean, how do I convert multiple Video Files to ISO? From There converting it ISO DVD with Devede. IF that is even nescessary.
[16:59] <W4RH4WK> LOGAN: yeah, you can customize every icon
[16:59] <taroven> Anyone aware of a way to create a directory symlink usable in both Windows and Linux? ln -s works great if I'm only working in Linux, but Windows of course doesn't agree with that.
[16:59] <ZykoticK9> eda_, they try looking in ~/.gvfs and see if anything is in there
[16:59] <W4RH4WK> LOGAN: just have a look at /usr/share/icon....
[17:00] <venik> How do I get teh focus of a window in U-10.10?  I used to be able to just click anywhere in the window, but now I must click on the Title bar-- HELP please!
[17:00] <W4RH4WK> LOGAN: but it's a little bit complicated
[17:01] <LOGAN> W4RH4WK: thanks but I mean that the icon resides on the flash drive itself and shows its icon upon insertion

[17:01] <licia> Hello all,  I want to install ubuntu on a usb stick. I remember i did it once with my flash stick but now I read it is necessary to have at least 2GB of free space, but I have only 1. Is there a lighter or older version which I can eventual boot?
[17:02] <taroven> licia: You might be better off with a minimal Debian install.
[17:02] <eda_> ZykoticK9, The terminal states: /home/eda/.gvfs: is a directory
[17:02] <tomcatjosh> licia:
[17:02] <W4RH4WK> LOGAN: hm, okay, i don't know if thats part of the gnome theme icons or just a nautilus specific icon... you could try looking thru the /usr/share/icon dir.. and find it.. then replace it
[17:02] <ZykoticK9> eda_, correct - it's where Gnome mounts its "virtual" stuff
[17:02] <tomcatjosh> Get an older version, install it and just update to 10.10 :)
[17:02] <tim__> athena_, did you get it?
[17:02] <W4RH4WK> LOGAN: otherwise that might be in some nautilus related folder
[17:02] <obenk> ada orang indonesia?

[17:03] <tomcatjosh> well
[17:03] <ZykoticK9> eda_, is anything in that directory?
[17:03] <venik> I guess I am running compiz (64 bit)
[17:03] <tomcatjosh> licia:Give me a second
[17:03] <venik> can anyone help me with this window focus issue?
[17:03] <athena_> sorry i don't known how to
[17:03] <eda_> ZykoticK9, How do I find out?
[17:04] <tomcatjosh> licia:
[17:04] <ZykoticK9> eda_, look inside that directory with Nautilus (file manager) or use "ls" in a terminal
[17:04] <LOGAN> W4RH4WK: thanks. I don't think going through the usr folder is the route to go to get a specific icon for that particular icon as it would need to show the icon as well if you insert it in another computer
[17:04] <tomcatjosh> licia: do you remember what version of Ubuntu you were using??
[17:04] <xovertheyearsx> im am so lost on this IRC thing...

[17:05] <ENC_CERCANOS> install any open ldap 2.4.21?
[17:05] <Quantum_Ion> FloridaGuy, reboot and check and see if caps lock button is on
[17:06] <taroven> xovertheyearsx: Very carefully?
[17:06] <tomcatjosh> licia: Netbook or Desktop?
[17:06] <enav> hello... i need some help here... i lose the tittle bar of my windows when i maximize them....  what i can do to fix it
[17:06] <LOGAN> W4RH4WK: I think I found a solution through autorun file
[17:06] <licia> tomcatjosh: I guess it was less than one year ago. Desktop
[17:06] <Xlaits> jink: DAMNIT! I have the Grendel project as backup, but I'm having trouble with installing KYLIX. Something about libgtk...
[17:06] <LOGAN> ill experiment with that :)
[17:07] <FloridaGuy> Quantum_Ion, i have rebooted and no caps are on...if caps were on...they would not work in terminal either

[17:07] <jink> Xlaits: Can't really help you out there, I guess. ^__^
[17:07] <prower> will there be any way to switch back to an actual gnome desktop in natty rather than be forced to use Unity on _desktop_ machines? i'd rather not be pushed into using a piece of software that requires you assign copyright on all contributions to Canonical
[17:07] <tomcatjosh> licia: Probably 9.10
[17:07] <ZykoticK9> eda_, you need to "cd .gvfs" first
[17:07] <brick> I mean, how do I convert multiple Video Files to ISO? From There converting it ISO DVD with Devede. IF that is even nescessary. Can one convert video files into zip and use that in DeVeDe?
[17:08] <W4RH4WK> Crash1hd: thx
[17:08] <LOGAN> arg, the pointer I found is someone adding a linux icon on a windows machine :(
[17:08] <W4RH4WK> LOGAN: yeah autorun file might work... like in windoze
try not to use the number key on the right side of the keyboard
[17:08] <Xlaits> jink: Really? I think I just need to either install libgtk, or update it... T_T And I'm a total newbie...
[17:08] <licia> Thanks, I'll have atry.
[17:08] <Crash1hd> W4RH4WK, no problem Knowledge is power and if I can help you help someone else in the future why not :)
[17:08] <bastidrazor> brick: if you've actually looked at the interface of devede then you would see it gives you the option to add multiple files to be converted
[17:08] <W4RH4WK> need to go.. cu
[17:09] <FloridaGuy> athena_, im not useing the number key...my password has no numbers
[17:09] <Kylindra> so I've narrowed my problem down to the fact it thinks I have apache installed when I had apache2
[17:09] <tomcatjosh> licia: The Netbook is 1 GB flash drive
[17:09] <licia> I was trying with debian lenny but dd the live to the flash drive doesn't boot
[17:09] <brick> h/o
[17:09] <brick> brb
[17:09] <LOGAN> im trying to make a product flash drive that shows the product icon and hopefully open an html file on the flash drive
[17:09] <tomcatjosh> licia: The Desktop is 2 GB
[17:09] <Kylindra> Becuase from what I can see it's telling me that while apache is not supported i don't hveit installed.
[17:09] <licia> tomcatjosh: ah, thank, so I user to be more clever
[17:09] <licia> *used
[17:10] <kisuke> ok, im tring to install ubuntu to a removeable HDD, any thing special i will need to do?
[17:10] <jink> Xlaits: If you want to compile something, you might need something like libgtk2.0-dev
[17:10] <xovertheyearsx> taroven: thanks hahah
[17:10] <tomcatjosh> licia: I believe you should give 8.10 i try: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ubuntu-810-persistent-flash-drive-install-from-live-cd/
[17:10] <xovertheyearsx> im just new to this whole IRC thing, figured id give it a try, see what the deal was
[17:10] <mangu> ??????????????????
[17:10] <jink> Xlaits: Anyway, gtg.
[17:10] <eda_> ZykoticK9: I entered eda@Lin:~/.gvfs$ ls  & got this: eda@Lin:~/.gvfs$ ls
[17:11] <Xlaits> jink: well, KYLIX is from a CD, running from a .sh file...
[17:11] <etheretic1> ZykoticK9: I've shutdown, disconnected the two errant drives, am currently formatting the new drive to ext4 from fat. They are all 1.5TB WD elements drives, btw.
[17:11] <ZykoticK9> eda_, so it doesn't seem like your floppy is mounted?!  Sorry I'm not sure what's wrong - best of luck.
[17:11] <tomcatjosh> licia: Just upgrade all the way up to 10.10. IMO i would just go buy a new 2GB Drive :) Good luck in any case!
[17:11] <taroven> kisuke: Probably not, but if you're planning on using it on multiple computers you may run into some odd issues.
[17:12] <kisuke> taroven: i just did, busybox chocked, and im no good with busy box
[17:12] <licia> thanks tomcatjosh
[17:12] <ENC_CERCANOS> good
[17:12] <ENC_CERCANOS> nothing?
[17:12] <ENC_CERCANOS> help me any?

 thank you
[17:13] <etheretic1> Guybrush88: xara xtreme
[17:13] <taroven> kisuke: Nor am I. The problem with any OS is that it tries to tailor itself to the system. You may want to look into using a portable environment rather than a straight-up Ubuntu install - ie, make the external HD act as a livecd.
[17:13] <ZykoticK9> eda_, have you tried "sudo mount /dev/fd0 /mnt"?
[17:13] <raidghost> Anyone that have idea what laptop to buy for gaming
[17:14] <raidghost> I heard that i5 and i7 was not a smart choose
[17:14] <kisuke> taroven: fun, i have a partiton set a side for it to >:(
[17:14] <raidghost> Dualcore still owns people sdays
[17:14] <ZykoticK9> raidghost, i5/i7 is CPU - not really related to "gaming".  That more a video card issue.
[17:14] <taroven> kisuke: Shouldn't be too tough. I remember seeing a guide for it on 9.04 forever ago.
[17:14] <etheretic1> raidghost: methinks a powerful gfx card is the most important.

[17:15] <kisuke> taroven: 9.04 is deffiniatly supperior to which even the new one is, it sure as heck worked better
[17:15] <whiten0ise> does ubuntu have problems with RT2870 drivers or something?
[17:15] <ZykoticK9> raidghost, getting a laptop/portable with nvidia seems to increase the cost by a lot!
[17:16] <etheretic1> How to connect external drives without them getting (auto)mounted?
[17:16] <taroven> kisuke: Heh. I use Debian Squeeze myself.
[17:16] <raidghost> ZykoticK9: can i pm you?
[17:16] <ZykoticK9> etheretic1, you can add them to fstab
[17:16] <ENC_CERCANOS> install any open ldap 2.4.21?
[17:16] <Spyzer> hi all is there an virtual webcam driver or any such tool for ubuntu which can emulate my desktop as the webcam stream and other users are able to view my desktop as a webcam stream on many chat applications
[17:16] <dj> hello
[17:16] <taroven> kisuke: Haven't bothered with Ubuntu in a while now... Too much to tweak and avoid breaking.
[17:16] <Spyzer> ??
[17:16] <ZykoticK9> raidghost, i doubt I have any more input...  but go ahead.
[17:16] <Spyzer> please tell anybody
[17:16] <Bliepo> I have recently installed Ubuntu 10.10, and made a back-up of my Firefox profile. I restorered it, but noticed that clicking on a link with the middle mouse button opens it in the current tab and not in a new one. How do I fix this? I checked about:config and browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick was set to true, so that is not the problem.
[17:16] <Jimmio> raidghost: The CPU will not affect a game performance nearly as much as the video device. I'd shoot for Nvidia and current gen (so GT 210 or better. GTX 495 is the highest desktop device)
[17:16] <taroven> dj: Hi.

[17:17] <Jimmio> raidghost: That sounds lovely. You'll likely be able to run Crysis (under windows). xP
[17:17] <familiasilva> oiiiiiiiii

[17:18] <Steven_Krebs> as I myself are using a c2d 2,5GHz with 4GB DDR3 ram and a GeForce 260m gtx for playing (ubuntu 10.10) I can second that
[17:18] <dj> ?
[17:18] <sympt0m> overkill much?
[17:18] <lindows> wich one is the best HD player for Ubuntu
[17:18] <taroven> kisuke: Heh, yeah, I know how that goes. Like I said, best bet on a portable HD is to use a sort of installed livecd method. You may even look around for a linux distro tailored for installed portability.
[17:18] <bindi> Hi! I'm using ubuntu on my HTPC, and I have a slight problem. Even though I am using the correct resolution, the image is sized incorrectly (overscan?) and I cant find any options to change this. Ubuntu 10.04, 42" TV using DVI-HDMI.
[17:18] <etheretic1> Steven_Krebs: oolite fly reasonably on that setup? :)
[17:18] <crankharder> anyone know how to make syslogd aggregate logs from different PIDS so that they are not interweaved in the resulting log file?
[17:18] <xovertheyearsx> raidghost: if you want top of the line, most newer games require 64bit proc with at least 4gig ram, freq rate just affects the amount of info the hardware proccesses
[17:19] <Steven_Krebs> Spyzer look for applications for "screencasting"
[17:19] <Steven_Krebs> oolite?
[17:19] <xovertheyearsx> raidghost: like starcraft two
[17:19] <Spyzer> ok
[17:19] <pksadiq> !enter | ENC_CERCANOS
[17:19] <taroven> bindi: What sort of graphics card does the HTPC use?
[17:19] <bindi> Oh also, I'm using intel integrated
[17:19] <bindi> (i3 530)
[17:19] <etheretic1> Steven_Krebs: elite on steroids.
[17:19] <kisuke> taroven: well its back to the linux live USB tool
[17:19] <Steven_Krebs> ah, got it ^^
[17:19] <sympt0m> sorry, no. newer games do not require 64bit, and 4gigs of ram is recommended but not necessary
[17:19] <Xlaits> I looked at the link. Which libgtk do I need?
[17:19] <xovertheyearsx> raidghost: u dont really need to worry about the proc though, just the vid card
[17:19] <etheretic1> Steven_Krebs: www.oolite.org
[17:19] <sympt0m> most games are mostly reliant on the gpu
[17:20] <FloridaGuy> synaptic and software sources....gui's are not taking my password...but if i sudo software-properties-gtk....sudo synaptic...root password..they open
[17:20] <needhelp1> i think my laptop fan may be going out, is there a way i can test it in ubuntu?
[17:20] <Steven_Krebs> All I wanted to say is, that this IS overkill, especially for a linux environment
[17:20] <xovertheyearsx> sympt0m, youre right, hence why i said top of the line
[17:20] <Xlaits> Or, how do I make it download the right one?
[17:20] <eda_> ZykoticK9: I tried "sudo mount /dev/fd0 /mnt" the drive light comes on , the icon shows it  mounted & file manager is empty. I tried with several Mfr's floppies & nothing!
[17:20] <kisuke> taroven: thanks anyway
[17:20] <xovertheyearsx> sympt0m, 64bits are more designed for companies than home owners
[17:20] <ENC_CERCANOS> ok obottu, install any open ldap 2.4.21?
[17:21] <ZykoticK9> eda_, you would need to be looking in /mnt with the mount command i gave you...
[17:21] <taroven> kisuke: No prob. Have fun.
[17:21] <needhelp1> xovertheyearsx: ?? almost all operating systems, consumer and business are moving to 64bit versions
[17:21] <Xlaits> I also used libgtk, and got nothing.
[17:21] <taroven> xovertheyearsx: 100% incorrect.
[17:21] <Bliepo> Is there an easy way to check whether my middle mouse button is working?
[17:21] <sympt0m> click it
[17:21] <Xlaits> er, used !find libgtk
[17:22] <needhelp1> is there a way to test a laptop fan in ubuntu
[17:22] <Guybrush88> little problem on maverick: when i'm playing on some games with snes9express on maverick, i get these games closed without any warning and after a little time after i start playing.
[17:22] <needhelp1> i think mine may be going out
[17:22] <Xlaits> Bliepo: open firefox and middle click a link.
[17:22] <Steven_Krebs> well it depens on the gros of applications you tend to use. If they take advantage of the 64bit architecture it's fine. if not it's a waste. no need for indepth benachmarking. simple logic.
[17:22] <chicca> ciao
[17:22] <Bliepo> Xlaits, that doesn't work, so I thought maybe the mouse mappings were wrong
ciao
[17:23] <taroven> Guybrush88: Have you tried running the games from terminal and watching the output there? Usually if there's a crash without warning, the program spits out at least an error message.
[17:23] <needhelp1> anyone know of a way to test a laptop fan ?
[17:23] <Xlaits> Bliepo: I can't do too much. Try using a different mouse, or, if you've got usb mouse, use a different port.
 yes, i've already tried with a terminal
[17:23] <etheretic1> how does one configure the system to show newly connected external drives' icons on the desktop, but not mount them automatically?
[17:23] <sympt0m> needhelp1, try running some benchmark tests, your fan will kick in for sure
[17:23] <Bliepo> Xlaits, I will give it a try. The problem is with my touchpad, so I will try a USB mouse
[17:23] <ZykoticK9> needhelp1, re:64bit - FYI due to the way Unix stores the date - in a couple of years everything will have to be 64bit (i forget the date, but I don't think it's to far away)
[17:23] <taroven> Guybrush88: No error messages?
[17:24] <Xlaits> Ok, I'm having an issue with KYLIX installation. !find libgtk fails, and it says I can't install, because: "Libgtk version >= 1.2.0....FAILED" HElp?
[17:24] <Dekko> hello everybody, I wonder do you know if there is something like a precompiled version of P-UAE (a PPA or something, or a deb package?)
i can copy-paste the things i got
[17:24] <Steven_Krebs> not until 2078
[17:24] <taroven> Guybrush88: pastebin please.
[17:24] <needhelp1> whats with ubuntu switching to the unity shell? I enjoy gnome
[17:24] <needhelp1> not sure if anyone saw the articles
[17:24] <ZykoticK9> Steven_Krebs, really, oh i thought it was a lot soon then that.  my bad.
[17:25] <Xlaits> Hello, anyone!?
[17:25] <shauno> I believe it's 2038, not 78
ok, i'm starting to pastebin
[17:25] <taroven> needhelp1: Nice thing about Linux is that you're free to use whatever you want. Throwing Gnome back into the mix isn't difficult at all.
[17:25] <Steven_Krebs> that's a generic problem of 32bit based software
[17:25] <Xlaits> Why a, I always ignored!?
[17:25] <ZykoticK9> Steven_Krebs, shauno is correct http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem
[17:25] <Xlaits> am*
[17:25] <needhelp1> sympt0m: care to point me to a benchmarking test

[17:25] <Steven_Krebs> oh, okay
[17:26] <Xlaits> I'm using ubuntu, and installing it from a disk.
[17:26] <fs-a> Hi, any idea why do I get "cc1: fatal error: 1.c: Value too large for defined data type" on a smb share inside a chroot? (the file is small and works outside chroot)

[17:27] <bindi> I'm using ubuntu on my HTPC, and I have a slight problem. Even though I am using the correct resolution, the image is sized incorrectly (overscan?) and I cant find any options to change this. Ubuntu 10.04, 42" TV using DVI-HDMI. Intel integrated graphics (core i3 530) (forgive if i repeated too quickly :p)
[17:27] <ENC_CERCANOS> thanks for no help, bye...
[17:27] <pksadiq> Xlaits: are you trying to compile from source?
[17:27] <xovertheyearsx> anyone know about an IRC channel dedicated to PHP and/or Web Dev?
[17:28] <utilitytrack> lindows: It's mplayer
[17:28] <pksadiq> ENC_CERCANOS:  ?
[17:28] <bindi> xovertheyearsx: try #php or ##php
[17:28] <Steven_Krebs> btw
[17:28] <Pici> xovertheyearsx: ##php , but you'll need to be registered and identified to join.
[17:28] <Pici> !register > xovertheyearsx
[17:28] <Xlaits> pksadiq: Source? No, I'm using a shell script on the disk.
 thanks =)
[17:29] <taroven> Guybrush88: Does this happen with every game, or just some?
[17:29] <taroven> Guybrush88: Also, props on the game choice there.

[17:29] <ENC_CERCANOS> pksadiq ... I asked the question if anyone install the latest version of openldap, no answer
[17:29] <pksadiq> Xlaits: more details please, is it a script?
[17:29] <Guybrush88> taroven: well, it happened with every game i tried
[17:29] <pksadiq> !info openldap
[17:29] <pksadiq> !info ldap
[17:29] <Pici> pksadiq: openldap is a source package.
[17:29] <ENC_CERCANOS> !info ldap
[17:30] <pksadiq> !find openldap
[17:30] <pksadiq> !info ldap-utils
[17:30] <Xlaits> pksadiq: KYLIX 3 is on a disk, already compiled. I need to install it, and the INSTALL file tells me to run something called setup.sh
[17:30] <taroven> Guybrush88: Strange. I'm not horribly familiar with snes9x these days, unfortunately. Could you give zsnes a shot and see if something similar happens?
[17:31] <pksadiq> Xlaits: ok, how did you run it?

[17:31] <taroven> Guybrush88: Believe it's available in the Ubuntu repos as long as you're not running amd64. Been a while though.
[17:31] <Guybrush88> taroven: ok, i can give znes a try, even though i always preferred snes9express xD
[17:31] <Xlaits> pksadiq: dragging it directly into terminal, and running it. That's the only way it'll work,
[17:32] <Guybrush88> taroven: since before maverick i never had any problem on snes9express xD
[17:32] <taroven> Guybrush88: Heh, I'm the opposite. Always preferred zsnes, never had a single problem with it, and always had issues with snes9x =P
[17:33] <Sh4wn> Is it me or is the 'Google' calendar type gone in evolution 2.30.3? (While the usermanual still mentions it)

[17:33] <maco> !es | ENC_CERCANOS
[17:34] <etheretic1> Is there a gui program like testdisk / ddrescue?
[17:34] <Xlaits> pksadiq: Copying the disk to the desktop, hold on.
[17:35] <pksadiq> Xlaits:  if the size is so big, then don't need to copy, you can try alternate ways

[17:35] <mmestnik> Hello, I'm sure there is a doc on this.  However I can;t find it.  My windows are all maximized and there is no boarder, how can I enable a "proper" window manager?
[17:36] <d3v0> hi im having problems mounting an ntfs usb stick in ubuntu
[17:36] <Steven_Krebs> do you use compiz?
[17:36] <Guybrush88> taroven: with zsnes will i be able to use savefiles from snes9express?
[17:36] <Steven_Krebs> mmestnik are you using compiz?
[17:36] <ZykoticK9> mmestnik, are you on desktop or UNE?  try running "compiz --replace" and if that fails "metacity --replace" [assuming desktop]
[17:36] <d3v0> i get an error on mount Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 13
[17:37] <mmestnik> Steven_Krebs: No, though I'd like to turn on screen effects under appearances.
[17:37] <Xlaits> pksadiq: What do I do after that?
[17:37] <d3v0> ive tried mounting through commandline as well with dev0@dev0:~$ sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /mnt/exhdd -o uid=4795F0A31D34AC64
[17:37] <pksadiq> Xlaits: what is the folder name ?
[17:37] <taroven> Guybrush88: The saveram (SRM) files are compatible, not too sure about savestates.
[17:37] <mmestnik> ZykoticK9: "metacity --replace" just flashed and snapped back to this.
[17:37] <Xlaits> pksadiq: KYLIX
[17:37] <ZykoticK9> mmestnik, so try "metacity --replace" then!
[17:38] <Guybrush88> taroven: uhm, i'll give it a try
[17:38] <ZykoticK9> mmestnik, oh sorry
[17:38] <mmestnik> ZykoticK9: I'm not sure what I'm on.  It was working untill I rebooted.
[17:38] <pksadiq> Xlaits: now in terminal type this => cd Desktop/KYLIX      and hit enter
[17:38] <quiescens> d3v0: you have a user who's uid is 4795F0A31D34AC64 ?
[17:38] <ZykoticK9> mmestnik, not sure if it will show UNE or not, but in a terminal "lsb_release -a"
[17:39] <d3v0> doh
[17:39] <d3v0> i thought it was uuid
[17:39] <d3v0> of the hdd

[17:40] <cbush15> How do you view user accounts in ssh root?
[17:40] <mmestnik> ZykoticK9: No it dosen't show UNE.  Looks like metacity and compiz just crash.
[17:40] <mmestnik> They should not daemonize, correct?
[17:40] <ZykoticK9> mmestnik, ? perhaps a graphics card issue?  have you tried restarting?
[17:40] <cbush15> CAN SOMEONE HELP ME
[17:41] <d3v0> do you guys need the whole error message?
[17:41] <pksadiq> Xlaits: now in terminal type => ls *.sh                           does any result is shown?
[17:41] <ZykoticK9> cbush15, to list user accounts you can use the old "cat /etc/passwd"

[17:42] <quiescens> d3v0: its probably recommended to have windows do a filesystem check first

[17:44] <home-alone> No i did not ..how to check it

[17:45] <Kyle__> karma_police: Are you sure it's not just being slow?
[17:45] <sfjkg> why the bluetooth manager stuck scanning???
[17:45] <karma_police> it started now... just greyed out for about 2 minutes before it tarted scan
[17:45] <home-alone> OK . will try that windows one..what about burnt disc itself
[17:45] <Steven_Krebs> http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/exploits_of_a_mom.png

[17:46] <Kyle__> karma_police: Try running it in command line mode, see if it's tossing any errors.  It really could have been sitting there gathering meta-data, doing pre-scanning tasks, etc, and be fine.

[17:46] <pksadiq> Xlaits:  do => chmod +x *.sh

[17:48] <pksadiq> Xlaits: , don't care, now do => ./setup.sh
[17:48] <Kyle__> JoeCoolNetbook: You'll have to be more specific.  Are you talking about in the file manager?  In standard ubuntu, xubuntu, kbuntu?
[17:48] <karma_police> looks to be a last resort program... i work on computers all the time.. this would take forever..lol

[17:53] <pksadiq> Xlaits:  check whether libgtk2.0-0 is installed
[17:53] <mmestnik> That is just strange, the bug is being corrected as I work... one window randomly at a time.
[17:53] <home-alone> ok. I downloaded and burnt iso using windows .is that possible that image is currepted by virus . Wubi gives me error............invalid argument For more information, please see the log file: d:docume~1\asifna~1\locals~1\temp\wubi-10.04-rev189.log

[18:36] <Cars10> and then?
[18:36] <etheretic1> utilitytrack: it is important that it is well supported by programs to recover data, etc.
[18:36] <WhiteDawn> Cars10, open up terminal, its under accesories, then you just gotta type "sudo modprobe vboxdrv"

[18:46] <Sebboh> I have set up NAT/masq on this ubuntu 10.10 machine, and the clients can hit the net, but not on port 80.  I suspect firewall trouble on the ubuntu box. (It's a fresh install.) Where do I find logs for dropped packets?
[18:46] <imperfect-> Anyone here having issues getting vmware workstation/server to install on 10.10 ?
[18:46] <Cars10> WhiteDawn: i need to install vbox in a vbox to test before i do the real install. but of cause the first vbox will not be there
[18:46] <Sean93> cansu: here's what i used https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[18:47] <cansu> checking
[18:47] <utilitytrack> etheretic1: How many it?
[18:47] <erUSUL> Sebboh: there is no firewall active by default in ubuntu
[18:47] <Cars10> WhiteDawn: im not sure wich of the vboxes is the problem
[18:47] <etheretic1> utilitytrack: it what?
[18:48] <WhiteDawn> Cars10, ubuntu should have installed the kernel modules for you allready. Not sure why you cant load the module
[18:48] <gdoteof> can I build a 4tb fast file server that will serve windows and mac seemlessly?
[18:48] <gdoteof> out of ubuntu ^^
[18:49] <WhiteDawn> Cars10, give this a shot "sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup"
[18:49] <danielsouzat> I found a bug when updating to 10.10 from 10.04. Libc6 fails to update. I want to try it via chroot. But my 10.04 is x86_64 and I have only a 9.04 i686 to do the chroot as my CD/DVD is broken.
[18:49] <danielsouzat> Is it possible?
[18:49] <cansu> Sean93 , not working :(

[18:50] <yuvilio> anyone know how to add the echo module to an ubuntu nginx binary? was wondering if there was a way to do it wihtout recompiling nginx
[18:50] <Sean93> cansu: what is the problem?

[18:51] <danielsouzat> nanovany, type "/join #ubuntu-es"
[18:51] <Sean93> cansu: sorry, this is a bit above my head, i'm still a noob :P
[18:51] <utilitytrack> etheretic1: Ok, good luck you.
[18:52] <danielsouzat> cansu,  run at the terminal "sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[18:52] <etheretic1> utilitytrack: thanks - 1.5tb+ data to recover - sleepless night.
[18:52] <WhiteDawn> Cars10, ok you may be missing the modules run "sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-modules"
[18:53] <whiten0ise1> l
[18:53] <tiox> Small issue, folks.
[18:54] <utilitytrack> etheretic1: What happened with this 1.5TB drive?
[18:54] <Sanky_> Hello, what should I try if the MS reader on my laptop doesn't work?  Nothing shows in dmesg if I place it in
[18:54] <tiox> I never noticed this until now, but when I use Emerald as the window decorator, the titlebar for Firefox is always a tab behind.
[18:54] <brontoeee> !emerald
[18:54] <Cars10> WhiteDawn: i dont i think is the vbox in my vbox that the problem. Its the guestadds in the host
[18:54] <tiox> Ouchie.
[18:55] <cansu> danielsouzat , didnt work
[18:55] <tiox> I don't know why it's unsupported, it's heads over heels better than GTK.
[18:55] <danielsouzat> cansu, what the system returned?
[18:55] <cansu> danielsouzat , you want me to paste the error to pastebin ??
[18:55] <danielsouzat> cansu, yes
[18:55] <cansu> ok wait
[18:55] <WhiteDawn> Cars10, possibly but the vbox in ubuntu wont run even if it wasnt virtualized if its missing the ose-modules
[18:56] <cansu> danielsouzat , http://paste.ubuntu.com/520275/
[18:56] <Cars10> WhiteDawn: i get an modprobe failure when i install them
[18:56] <WhiteDawn> Cars10, did you run the command i told you to?
[18:56] <resno> what can i use to merge pdfs, and maitain syling?
[18:57] <furi_> so, if i am editing an irssi .theme file, what is the variable that is for highlighted messages? i need to verify just in case if it isn't "hilight"
[18:57] <whiten0ise> im pretty sure dealing with netmanager raised my heartrate.
[18:58] <whiten0ise> im just going to remove it and use wicd.
[18:58] <cansu> danielsouzat , any thoughts ??
[18:58] <Cars10> WhiteDawn: yes it is done. however i still get the same error on the vboxdrv afterwards
[18:58] <brontoeee> resno, not sure, but there are plenty of pdf tools in 'software center'
[18:58] <WhiteDawn> Cars10, yes but you should be able to run "sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv start"
[18:59] <cansu> http://paste.ubuntu.com/520275/
[18:59] <WhiteDawn> Cars10, after installing the modules package that is

[19:02] <cansu> noone knows how to install that
[19:03] <danielsouzat> cansu, sorry I was out.

[19:11] <goltoof_> I want to delete a bunch of stuff from a read only thumbdrive
[19:11] <BenTheDesigner> utilitytrack, no I used apt-get, I said that to start with
[19:12] <cansu> danielsouzat , i removed b43 and installed sta , will it solve my problem you think ?
[19:12] <asus> Could anybody advice me a channel or server where I can talk about domain names?
[19:12] <utilitytrack> BenTheDesigner: Please check that aptitude installed: dpkg -l aptitude
[19:13] <BenTheDesigner> utilitytrack, I'm NOT using aptitude
[19:13] <danielsouzat> cansu yes, I don't know it will work but it will resolve your problem
[19:13] <danielsouzat> bye
[19:13] <cansu> danielsouzat , how can i test it now :D
[19:13] <utilitytrack> BenTheDesigner: So, it installed or not? Just tell me.
[19:14] <cansu> danielsouzat , what was the name of the package for all codecs mp3 things that ubuntu install asks at first to install ?
[19:14] <BenTheDesigner> utilitytrack, yes aptitude is installed
[19:14] <rdw200169> goltoof: was the drive mounted as a read/write, or was it mounted read-only?
[19:14] <flan_suse> ubuntu-restricted-extras ?
[19:15] <Temaruk> hello everyone!
[19:15] <utilitytrack> atyz_: He can use aptitude, because it's installed.
[19:16] <utilitytrack> BenTheDesigner: Thanks.
[19:16] <xtremox> hi how to install a style in gwibber?
[19:16] <Temaruk> have anyone met the "Fitness Ubuntu Feature"? (have to move mouse to make things load/work/run...) :-)
[19:16] <cansu> danielsouzat , thanks dude , it worked
[19:16] <BenTheDesigner> utilitytrack, what was the point of that? atyz_ only told you hat I did... That I used apt-get
[19:17] <BenTheDesigner> I asked how to remove mysql after installing with apt-get, not with aptitude
[19:17] <laffer> I'm following a tutorial on how to run win7 from another partition with virtualbox but i'm not getting there
[19:17] <laffer> any help with this?
[19:17] <Quantum_Ion> BenTheDesigner, Use apt-get remove mysql
[19:17] <taroven> laffer: Any reason to run windows that wine won't cover?
[19:18] <noisewaterphd> apt-get remove packagename
[19:18] <laffer> taroven: but can i run it from the other partition with wine?
[19:18] <atyz_> BenTheDesigner: i answered your question
[19:18] <atyz_> apt-get remove mysql --purge
[19:18] <Quantum_Ion> BenTheDesigner, apt-get --purge remove <package>
[19:19] <noisewaterphd> i believe he has been answered 4 times now
[19:19] <Quantum_Ion> apt-get clean
[19:19] <taroven> laffer: Wine is a compatibility layer that allows you to run most Windows programs in Linux.
[19:19] <Quantum_Ion> debfoster
[19:19] <noisewaterphd> apt-get selfdestruct
[19:19] <utilitytrack> BenTheDesigner: atyz_ should to realize that we can to use aptitude and apt-get together. No significant differences between them.
[19:19] <zer0c00l> Can i use the kernel and ramdisk included in  casper directory of a live cd to network install ubuntu?
[19:19] <Thisistode> Anyone know if it is troublesome to create dual-boot
[19:19] <atyz_> utilitytrack: i know that
[19:19] <Thisistode> Im on Ubuntu only and would like to create a Windows dualboot as well
[19:19] <atyz_> utilitytrack: but you cant install a package with aptitude and remove it with apt-get
[19:20] <laffer> taroven: but i have win 7 installed on a partition and i'm questioning if with wine i can run it
[19:20] <zer0c00l> It keeps telling me "waiting for root file system" and goes back to shell
[19:20] <flan_suse> laffer, no, you can't.
[19:20] <taroven> Thisistode: I dual boot without any problems. Grub is awesome.
[19:20] <dooglus> I put ubuntu on a friend's laptop.  he recently upgraded to 10.10 and now tells me it won't hibernate if it's running on battery power
[19:20] <flan_suse> laffer, I understand what you're trying to do, but that's not how wine works.
[19:20] <dooglus> apparently it will hibernate if it's plugged in to the wall
[19:20] <dooglus> this sounds unlikely to me - is it possible?
[19:20] <utilitytrack> atyz_: Good trolling.
[19:20] <Thisistode> Grub
[19:20] <Thisistode> Hmm
[19:20] <bash1> thisistode the easy way is to install w7 first
[19:20] <flan_suse> Trolling? Um.
[19:20] <dasen> laffer: I once managed to do that following a tutorial on the net, you have to edit the file of the virtual disk configuration to point it to a real disk, but I don't remember what exactly I did, and didn't keep a favorite of the tutorial.
[19:20] <atyz_> utilitytrack: i never trolled anyone
[19:20] <Quantum_Ion> you mean Grub2 and it sucks
[19:20] <atyz_> i'm correct
[19:20] <Temaruk> @dooglus: i also have problems with 10.10
[19:20] <Thisistode> Yeah that's the problem I got Ubuntu installed already
[19:21] <noisewaterphd> laffer: there is a utility to convert your win7 partition into a vbox or vmware appliance though
[19:21] <Thisistode> And I really don't want to remove it or install it again or f- it up
[19:21] <flan_suse> noisewaterphd, but I think he wants to use wine, unless I didn't read back far enough.
[19:21] <utilitytrack> atyz_: You are wrong.
[19:21] <dooglus> Temaruk: hibernation problems?
[19:21] <laffer> noisewaterphd: ok. do you know it's name?
[19:21] <taroven> laffer: You can't run Windows under Wine - Wine is just a method of running specific programs. It's generally preferred to run the program instead of the OS when possible - If you really do need virtualization, I'd be happy to help you there. I just want to make sure that you're not trying to virtualize an OS on another partition when something far simpler can produce better results.
[19:22] <Temaruk> not yet :D i have other problems to solve, i have to always move the mouse to make things work
[19:22] <dasen> noisewaterphd: is there really?  I'd love to use that(I once managed to do it, but forgot how to)
[19:22] <noisewaterphd> laffer, flan_suse, vmware player in unity mode will be far better than mucking around with wine
[19:22] <flan_suse> laffer, wine has gotten better over time. If there's a program you're trying to run, it might actually work out with wine 1.3.5,
[19:22] <goltoof> so i guess i'll ask again,  what should i do to format a protected drive?  gparted gives me no option
[19:23] <bash1> Thisistode, ok do
[19:23] <Temaruk> im already after 2 days of opensuse 11.3, i couldnt make my wacom tablet (intuos4) work with that, but in Ubuntu 10.10, it works out of the box
[19:23] <flan_suse> noisewaterphd, I would think it depends. I use wine, since I only need to run a few applications. No need for the extra space and resources taken up by virtualization.
[19:23] <laffer> dasen: I'm following a tutorial that says that says I can run win7 with Vbox but I'm missing a step
[19:23] <noisewaterphd> dasen: ya, I did it not too long ago, vbox and vmware both have a utility, I don't remember what they are called though, just google it
[19:23] <bash1> Thisistode, sorry what drive you installing w7 on?
[19:23] <Tigger_Yum-Yum> Thisistode the problem is that Windows is greedy, no matter what is already installed it will over-write any current bootloader (such as grub) with its own... If you were to install Windows AFTER ubuntu you would have to make sure to create seperate partitions and then use a bootloader live-cd to create a new bootloader
[19:23] <taroven> Thisistode: Grub should be installed automatically when you set up Ubuntu or just about any other Linux distro. If you install WIndows after Linux, then Windows takes over (and won't let you boot into Linux) - There's always ways to fix that though.
[19:23] <Thisistode> Ah
[19:23] <aeon-ltd> Temaruk: offtopic (kinda), but you should have tried mint, its known for its wider compatibility by stock
[19:23] <Thisistode> Saw a way to fix it just now
[19:24] <Temaruk> but
[19:24] <Thisistode> (live CD and install grub again through a terminal)
[19:24] <bash1> there you go what Tigger__
[19:24] <bash1> said
[19:24] <Thisistode> Im going to install WinXP on my built in HDD on my Netbook bash1
[19:24] <taroven> Thisistode: Yep, that's the way. Should work just fine once you get Grub back up and doing its thing.
[19:24] <peppiniello> hello, i have a trouble
[19:24] <Tigger_Yum-Yum> i didnt notice the ubuntu live cd had such a feature Thisistode
[19:24] <Tigger_Yum-Yum> good deal
[19:24] <Thisistode> Thanks for the help, going to read up a bit
[19:25] <dasen> laffer: can you give me the link to that tutorial?
[19:25] <taroven> Tigger_Yum-Yum: The live cd has a lot of pleasant surprises.
[19:25] <Temaruk> aeon-Itd: yeah, should have, im just slowly losing patience...i wasted 2 days already with installing OSs...
[19:25] <Tigger__> eh! bash1 ? lol
[19:25] <Thisistode> Btw, do any of you guys recommend VMware insteadof dualboot?
[19:26] <jink> Thisistode: I recommend it for cases when you want both at the same time. :>
[19:26] <Thisistode> Is it possible to run games on it?
[19:26] <Thisistode> Or will it be so slow it's not worth it?
[19:26] <Tigger_Yum-Yum> i wouldnt recommend virtualization for home /family use
[19:26] <bash1> Thisistode, there are some hardware issues running w7 on vmware
[19:26] <Tigger_Yum-Yum> its more for testing purposes
[19:26] <taroven> Thisistode: What jink said. I dualboot myself, but I'm finding more and more than Wine covers anything I really need from Windows.
[19:26] <Temaruk> aeon-Itd: so, did this happen to anyone else? that the mouse must constantly moved in order to make things run?
[19:26] <aeon-ltd> Thisistode: no unless you were rockin i7 3.0ghz+ and a nvidia 300(+) GTX or higher to get any good experience with modern games
[19:27] <Dcite> Temaruk: Is this over VNC?
[19:27] <Thisistode> Hmm
[19:27] <Thisistode> Do I want the vmware player or server?
[19:27] <Thisistode> Im really confused about this thing
[19:27] <peppiniello> anybody to help me?
[19:27] <jink> Server.
[19:27] <goltoof> so yeah it'd be nice if i could format this write protected thumb drive of mine....
[19:27] <Syria> After installing Meerkat on the office desktop I've adjusted the system to log in automatically without asking me for a password, and now after booting and pressing enter on the user name I get 3 error messages one of them says that nautilus can't create a folder and you have to give permessions:( it is not booting how can i give permessions or do anything. :(
[19:27] <laffer> dasen: is it that tutorial?
[19:27] <aeon-ltd> Temaruk: no idea. sorry
[19:27] <bash1> Thisistode, just load it and fix grub thats the easy way
[19:27] <Dcite> Thisistode: Also have a looka
[19:28] <Dcite> err Thisistode Also have a look at VirtualBox before you install VMware
[19:28] <W3ird_N3rd> is it possible to make the monitor turn off after 40 minutes? I now have to choose between 30 minuten and 1 hour, but I want 40 minutes :-(
[19:28]  * jink hasn't tried VirtualBox (yet).
[19:28] <cansu> guys, i deleted charge displayer by mistake , how do i add it again ??
[19:28] <glaucous> Could permission problems in /var in any way screw up crontab commands? I can for instance not run GPU clock program, and not cpufreq-selector (as user). The commands do run (create empty log), but probably fails.
[19:29] <Dcite> W3ird_N3rd: gconf-editor might have what you want.
[19:29] <taroven> cansu: You mean from the Gnome application/system tray panel?
[19:29] <dasen> laffer: what ?  I don't understand...
[19:29] <Syria> cansu on the panel right click then chose add to panel.
[19:29] <FloridaGuy> anyone experencing problems with google loading slow...i even had the samething in mandriva....google as home page and open firefox and it takes a few a min to load
[19:29] <laffer> dasen: here's the url for the tutorial http://www.rajatarya.com/website/taming-windows-virtualbox-vm
[19:29] <cansu> taroven , Syria , yes from the tray.  i dont know which item it is
[19:29] <laffer> dasen: is that the one you saw?
[19:29] <W3ird_N3rd> cansu, go to power management, General tab, notification area.. and make sure you add the notification area item (which is an item just like the clock, network connection, etc)
[19:29] <Temaruk> Dcite: no, im sitting in front of my laptop, that has Ubuntu 10.10 running, after hours of installation, and hours of update
[19:29] <cansu> stria , which is it ?
[19:30] <taroven> cansu: Rightclick the panel, Add to Panel -> Battery Charge Monitor (on mine at least)
[19:30] <Syria> cansu Are you talking about the battery tray?
[19:30] <taroven> Then click Add.
[19:30] <Temaruk> Dcite: and it took hours, because i didn't notice that i had to move the mouse all time... :(
[19:30] <cansu> syria , yes
[19:30] <bash1> i dont get why it takes some people so long to load ubuntu
[19:30] <W3ird_N3rd> Dcite, I suspect so, but if someone knows where the setting is, that would be helpful :)
[19:30] <Dcite> Temaruk: I never knew of a system which is strange like that...
[19:30] <bash1> 10.10 is the easiest one yet?
[19:30] <Syria> cansu yes do what taroven has just said right click on the panel  Add to Panel -> Battery Charge Monitor
[19:30] <Dcite> Err W3ird_N3rd Hold on =P
[19:31] <cansu> Syria , no such thing
[19:31] <taroven> cansu: Look through the list, it should be fairly obvious what things do by looking at them. If you don't see anything related to batteries, then there's another step or two to take.
[19:32] <sandking> hey

[19:33] <misterme> How do you obtain the uconfig.h perl 5 header file in ubuntu?
[19:33] <Dcite> Temaruk: What happens when you don'tmove the mouse? system stops completely?
[19:33] <cansu> no battrey word . .  yes i am on that list ,  it is not in the notifications area
[19:33] <Dcite> Temaruk: Is that's the case, does it work properly while in ctrl+alt+F1 (You are in Ctrl+alt+F7 by default)
[19:33] <W3ird_N3rd> cansu, did you add the notification area?

[19:34] <cansu> i didnt do such thing
[19:34] <Dcite> W3ird_N3rd, cansu: Maybe it needs to be told to always display the battery icon in the power properties under system
[19:35] <cansu> how do i reset it
[19:35] <bash1> Thisistode, no you will need to burn it to a disk
[19:35]  * Thisistode sigh
[19:35] <Syria> W3ird_N3rd He removed it, he didn't check or un-chek boxes.

[19:36] <Thisistode> Like I did with Ubuntu
[19:36] <Dcite> Thisistode: Dualbooting on a netbook.. do you really have that much free space?
[19:36] <Thisistode> 160gb HDD
[19:36] <Dcite> Thisistode: Netbooks don't really have the ost fire power.
[19:36] <W3ird_N3rd>  System -> PReferences -> power management > General tab
[19:36] <bash1> there is an app to do it with w7 can't remember what is called brb

[19:36] <JimmyJohn> Can anyone help me get ubuntu running? I've got it installed and had it up once but it crashed. it gives me a "child_rip" error at 0x0 and 0x20 every time i try to boot it
[19:36] <IanWizard> Dcite: you'd be surprised, I'm on a net book with windows, ubuntu, debian, and VMs

[19:38] <Lucias> Hello, I have a problem regarding graphics drivers
[19:38] <brontoeee> Jordan_U, eh, found png just now, thanks
[19:38] <Jordan_U> brontoeee: You're welcome.
[19:39] <Lucias> Or well, I have a problem fixing the problem with graphics due to a problem with setting my xkb map.
[19:39] <shane4ubuntu> !shotwell
[19:39] <delinquentme> SOo if i want to shrink my main ubuntu OS partition to ... *weeps* make room for windows .. how it this best accomplished?? during a reboot with a live cd? or are there easier ways?
[19:39] <kazoo> !lamp
[19:39] <IanWizard> delinquentme, nope, that's the best way,
[19:40] <Syria> Anybody has an idea why this happened please? After installing Meerkat on the office desktop I've adjusted the system to log in automatically without asking me for a password, and now after booting and pressing enter on the user name I get 3 error messages one of them says that nautilus can't create a folder and you have to give permessions:( it is not booting how can i give permessions or do
[19:40] <Syria> anything. :(
[19:40] <IanWizard> but I tried that and had to wipe everything (after backups were made) and install windows first.
[19:40] <shane4ubuntu> I imported my f-spot stuff, imported a 2009 folder, and shotwell still refuses to show any pictures in 2009, any ideas???
[19:40] <Lucias> It appears that my swedish dvorak keyboard layout won't allow me to use slashes in a TTY terminal, hence I am unable to go to the config file I need to change. Setxkbmap only tells be "Cannot open display 'default display'".
[19:41] <Lucias> I thought setxkbmap was supposed to work in bash and not require a GUI. Is there any tool for changing my xkb map in a terminal?
[19:41] <kazoo> !irc
[19:42] <glaucous> I have a script which does an infinite while [ 1 ] loop, and sleeps 1 minute at the end of each iteration. However, doing normal "stop process" on it doesn't seem to work, only killing the script works. Perhaps there's a way to stop the loop/script without having to _KILL_ it?
[19:42] <W3ird_N3rd> Dcite, thanks thanks thank! I just returned to my computer after 31 minutes (which happens quite often) so you can imagine how badly I wanted to increase this value a little bit :D set to 2400 seconds now :)
[19:42] <Jordan_U> glaucous: while sleep 60
[19:42] <nibbier> i'm using maximus, and some windows get maximised with, and others without showing the window title bar. how can i get this one hidden for all windows?
[19:43] <Jordan_U> glaucous: Then if sleep is interrupted the while loop terminates.
[19:43] <nibbier> (unmaximise, maximise shows the titlebar also for those windows where it was hidden before, getting rid of this would be extragood)
[19:43] <glaucous> Jordan_U, while [ sleep 60 ] ? Or how do I check if the sleep is interrupted?
[19:43] <Dcite> glaucous: Can't 'kill' it with SIGSTOP and SIGCONT ?
[19:44] <Maahes_> I tried to upgrade my kernel and it fails to create the initrd image what can I do? http://pastebin.com/3HieTV7c
[19:44] <Dcite> Though I gues that misses the scripts processse =/
[19:45] <glaucous> Dcite, right now I'm using System Monitor. And only End/Kill process works, not Stop Process
[19:46] <Dcite> glaucous: Unfortunately I don't have the resources to be of help at the moment then.
[19:46] <nanovany> how can I see the emesene version that I have?
[19:46] <Jordan_U> glaucous: In bash while runs a command and checks the exit status of that command. If you look you'll see that /usr/bin/[ is a command like any other. So literally: while sleep 60; do echo hello, world; done
[19:47] <bindi> I'm using ubuntu on my HTPC, and I have a slight problem. Even though I am using the correct resolution, the image is sized incorrectly (overscan?) and I cant find any options to change this. Ubuntu 10.04, 42" TV using DVI-HDMI. Intel integrated graphics (core i3 530)

[19:49] <adahlin> hi everyone I'm having some trouble getting X forwarding working. it works for root, but not users... i think i have all the ssh stuff configured correctly, but I guess not. thoughts on where to start?
[19:49] <nanovany> aaah, thanks aeon-ltd !!
[19:49] <adahlin> Sikth, looks like it renames all .php files -> .html
[19:50] <Sikth> adahlin, yeah thats what it does, but I just copied and pasted it off the net, and want to break it all down, like what does 'forr f in> ectt..ectt mean?
[19:51] <JohnnyL> how do you remove apache via apt-get?
[19:51] <kazoo> Okay for "/etc/bind/named.conf.options" if i keep it to 0.0.0.0 will it bind to all hosts?
[19:51] <kazoo> JohnnyL, sudo apt-get remove apache2
[19:51] <adahlin> Sikth, it's a bash script, google "bash scripting tutorial".. that should help. it's pretty standard stuff except the ${f%.php}.html, that's some bash magic...
[19:51] <JohnnyL> kazoo: I get: 'it's not installed' if I try that.
[19:52] <kazoo> Then Apache is not installed on your system.
[19:52] <glaucous> Jordan_U, indeed that works, thank you.
[19:52] <Jordan_U> glaucous: You're welcome.
[19:52] <plouffe> Is it possible to use one Ubuntu computer to give internet access to other computers on the local network? What software is needed?
[19:52] <kazoo> Should i keep it to my host ip or can i use 0.0.0.0
[19:53] <kazoo> plouffe, do you mean you wan't to run a server farm?
[19:53] <shadyabhi> plouffe: You can  use ssh for using SOCKS proxy
[19:53] <JimmyJohn> Hey. I just got a new kernel from a guy who compiled it using a patch for a bios error on some toshibas. what do i need to do to implement this on my own pc to fix the error?

[19:54] <bindi> plouffe: check that out
[19:54] <plouffe> bindi,  thanks

[19:54] <Guest78002> i wonder if someone could help me. i am wanting the snow effect on compiz fusion. i am running 10.10 and was if any could help me ?
[19:55] <bindi> id' really want my problem fixe
[19:55] <JimmyJohn> So I've got this kernel which was compiled to work around a bios error on my system. What do I have to do to implement this?
[19:56] <^c|0ud^> for some reason 10.10 doesnt let me run my OS of a usb.. I can only use 10.04
[19:56] <^c|0ud^> not sure why.
[19:56] <mkanyicy> Guest37232, what is 'snow effect'?
[19:56] <TechMiX> Hi all, Why is this problem? : whenever I plug the monitor port into my laptop everything freeze and the solution is rebooting! ... if I wanted to use the monitor output, i have to shutdown the laptop, plug the port, and boot the os. is there anyway to fix this?
[19:56] <dvanstone> does anyone know a how to use dvc as webcast
[19:56] <mkanyicy> Guest37232, not you, sorry
[19:57] <Guest39498> its the unsupported snow effect on compiz
[19:57] <dvanstone> wait anyone awke yet
[19:57] <bash1> mkanyicy, hes gone
[19:57] <hell_razer> i have booted from livecd ubuntu 10.04 and apt-get install openssh-server
[19:57] <hell_razer> and now want to connect
[19:57] <mkanyicy> bash1, I see
[19:57] <hell_razer> which is default passwords for root and ubuntu?
[19:58] <Guest39498> anyone the command to install the unsupported compiz plugins
[19:58] <^c|0ud^> it seems when 10.10 boots up it just shows up as a black screen. any suggestions?
[19:58] <mkanyicy> hell_razer, there is no default password for root
[19:58] <JimmyJohn> You've gotta be kidding me that nobody in here knows how to use a new kernel. The installed ubuntu doesn't work. I have a kernel which fixes it. What the hell do I do with it
[19:58] <mkanyicy> hell_razer, use 'sudo'
[19:58] <sandking> i got apple aluminium keyboard and my function keys work with additional functions (volume down/up etc) but i want standard set (f1-f12) keys - how can i do that?
[19:58] <^c|0ud^> but I can install it no problem just after the install process
[19:58] <sandking> to use standard function keys i need to press"fn" key, so it works in reverse to what i though it would work
[19:59] <hell_razer> mkaay: ssh 192.168.1.52 -lroot no pass => login error

[19:59] <Lucias> Any ideas?
[19:59] <bash1> JimmyJohn, http://www.sysdesign.ca/guides/linux_kernel.html
[19:59] <nanovany> what is the best program to chat?
[19:59] <nanovany> emesene, amsn, pidgin?
[20:00] <mkanyicy> hell_razer, what happens when you do that as user 'ubuntu'?
[20:00] <nanovany> and which of the soport web cam?
[20:00] <nanovany> *them
[20:00] <hell_razer> mkanyicy: its ask password
[20:00] <bash1> JimmyJohn, but you dont need the wget bit just untar the kernel you have
[20:00] <Lucias> nanovany, it's very much about your own opinion, I believe amsn and possibly emesene have webcam support.
[20:00] <Guest39498> Unable to locate package compiz-fusion-plugins-unsupported HELP ?
[20:00] <hell_razer> mkanyicy: i used sudo -s then passwd ubuntu
[20:01] <mkanyicy> hell_razer, and then?
[20:01] <mkanyicy> hell_razer, im interested
[20:01] <Steven_Krebs> tried leaving it blank?
[20:01] <W3ird_N3rd> nanovany, XChat?

[20:01] <Lucias> nanovany, Empathy might have webcam support (the built-in chat application for Ubuntu)
[20:01] <zerwas> what could cause that a system stops booting at "VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) on device 2:1"? (no kernel panic, system still reacts if i plug in usb devices)
[20:01] <mkanyicy> hell_razer, that should be fine
[20:01] <bash1> JimmyJohn, and grub the end not lilo
[20:01] <mkanyicy> hell_razer, you can do the same with root, if you must
[20:01] <caotic> on a X-less ubuntu, how can I register the ssh service to start (and start every time the machine boots )
[20:02] <mattt_> Can anyone tell me what the directory /var/lib/apt/lists/partial is for?
[20:02] <mkanyicy> hell_razer, 'sudo passwd'
[20:02] <hell_razer> mkanyicy: yes, but is strange that i cant google any default pass eg root test ubuntu
[20:02] <Guest39498> where do i go to get help on problems with ubuntu is
[20:02] <caotic> Guest39498: I think this and the forums are the right place

[20:03] <dvanstone> how do I change rooms in chat?
[20:03] <shane4ubuntu> does anyone know how to fix the exif data in images to change the date picture was taken?
[20:03] <bash1> lol @jimmyjohn your welcome
[20:03] <caotic>  dvanstonedepends on your irc application
[20:03] <Jygga> hi trying to build a package from source with checkinstall. It breaks at the Requirements part, it has 3 requirements zlib1g-dev libpcre3-dev and openssl, i tried to put them in there exactly like that which gives a syntax error after the first one. Do i have to separate them by "," or sth?
[20:03] <caotic>  dvanstone: depends on your irc application
[20:03] <Quantum_Ion> mattt_,  /var is where Ubuntu dumps a lot of stuff
[20:03] <Jygga> i realise that its just a gui to build the command line options so i guess there has to be some delimiter in tehre
[20:03] <mkanyicy> hell_razer, the fresh install is such that the 'root' password is disabled (or is not set whatever way you see it)
[20:03] <shane4ubuntu> I have a bunch that I thought I fixed with f-spot, but it didn't seem to make a permanent change
[20:04] <mattt_> Quantum_Ion, I know what /var is.. I'm curious what that specific directory is used for by apt
[20:04] <W3ird_N3rd> caotic, got link?
[20:04] <mkanyicy> hell_razer, hence I am not suprised by what you are observing
[20:04] <mattt_> turns out it's in the apt-get manual..
[20:04] <dvanstone> Well I thought this was freenode not ubuntu chaotic
[20:04] <Quantum_Ion> mattt_, usually /var
[20:04] <furi> sorry about this being kinda off-topic, but this is the only place i can ask... what is the #metroid channel for, here on freenode?
[20:04] <Quantum_Ion> mattt_, you can purge /var using debfoster
[20:05] <caotic> W3ird_N3rd: yeah, but not sure if that is is that is the info I am looking for ( each distro has their service wrappers for start, restart, stop  [status])
[20:05] <mkanyicy> mattt_, what do you want to achieve?
[20:05] <mattt_> mkanyicy, trying to figure out what looks like a bug with apt-get
[20:05] <W3ird_N3rd> caotic, it helped me set up oscom to load at boot
[20:05] <caotic> W3ird_N3rd: err: rephrasing every distro has their own wrappers for start, restart, stop  [status] of their services )
[20:05] <shane4ubuntu> eek, what an overwhelming response to the exif data editing. that isn't good.
[20:05] <W3ird_N3rd> *oscam
[20:06] <VCoolio> Jygga: the dependencies you can install with apt-get, with spaces as delimiters, not with checkinstall; and why does checkinstall complain? You need './configure' and 'make' first
[20:06] <Thisistode> I forgot what the program to make an Ubuntu usb booter was called
[20:06] <gmitrev> hey guys
[20:06] <bash1> mattgyver, /var/cache/apt/archives
[20:06] <Quantum_Ion> mattt_, apt-get install debfoster
[20:06] <gmitrev> i have an ugly problem after updating
[20:06] <bash1> sory
[20:06] <Nertil> ahahhahaha
[20:06] <bash1> sorry wrong matt
[20:06] <gmitrev> from 10.04 to 10.10
[20:06] <Quantum_Ion> mattt_,  debfoster — weed unnecessary Debian packages
[20:07] <Thisistode> Whats the program called again?
[20:07] <gmitrev> i cannot login in gui
[20:07] <Jygga> VCoolio checkinstall asks to fill out a "Requires" field in the interactive process, i was asking about that
[20:07] <caotic> W3ird_N3rd: I may usefull for me to learn the distro independent way to configure the rc.d, but for now I will focus on what ubuntu uses for manipulating that registry
[20:07] <gmitrev> the login screen keeps coming after i write my username and password
[20:07] <kazoo> !mail
[20:07] <Quantum_Ion> debfoster
[20:07] <kazoo> !mailserver
[20:07] <caotic> err: It will be usefull ("may" doesnt apply really, since I know it will be )
[20:07] <gmitrev> i can still access the terminal and when i do
[20:07] <gmitrev> it says there are problems with the PATH var
[20:07] <Quantum_Ion> !debfoster
[20:07] <mkanyicy> mattt_, good luck
[20:08] <gmitrev> i cant use commands like ls
[20:08] <gmitrev> and should write /usr/bin/ls instead
[20:08] <gmitrev> any advices?
[20:09] <mkanyicy> gmitrev, thats bad
[20:09] <tensorpudding> gmitrev: that sounds problematic
[20:09] <tensorpudding> gmitrev: have you tried booting recovery?
[20:09] <mrk_> i have a problem with opening 'help' since upgrading to 10.4 which may be due to a known bug associated with xulrunner - pasted the strace on http://paste.ubuntu.com/520316/ is there anyone who can help me interpret it?
[20:10] <mkanyicy> gmitrev, do this 'export PATH=$PATH:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin'
[20:10] <VCoolio> Jygga: as far as I understood, try comma, no spaces, so dep1,dep2,dep3
[20:10] <gmitrev> in the terminal?
[20:10] <mkanyicy> gmitrev, that will try to set the PATH environment variable
[20:10] <gmitrev> i checked /etc/environment
[20:11] <gmitrev> and it's ok
[20:11] <gmitrev> im rebooting to try this, thanks :)
[20:11] <tensorpudding> gmitrev: does /bin/ls work?
[20:11] <mkanyicy> gmitrev, and what about 'echo $PATH'
[20:12] <tensorpudding> gmitrev: and what about 'pwd'
[20:12] <nebpo> Hi, using a laptop/synaptics, how can I simulate left-right both press like mouse middle button?
[20:12] <mkanyicy> gmitrev, does that show the same thing as /etc/environment ?
[20:12] <tensorpudding> pwd is a shell-builtin, so it should definitely work
[20:12] <bartosz_> hi
[20:12] <bartosz_> what does it mean "mutter bitter" in english
[20:12] <gmitrev> @mkanycy i think so
[20:12] <gmitrev> i recently edited /etc/environment to add android PATH var
[20:12] <bartosz_> any1 knows i need traslate it
[20:13] <bartosz_> what does it mean "mutter bitter" in english
[20:13] <gmitrev> but never changed anything else
[20:13] <tensorpudding> bartosz_: context?
[20:13] <Jygga> VCoolio yes , works
[20:13] <tensorpudding> bartosz_: it mutter being used as a verb?
[20:13] <bartosz_> hm
[20:13] <hasen> hi every body
[20:13] <hasen> is here any some one help me?
[20:13] <bartosz_> coontext : and then he began to mutter bitter curses against me, or the evil fortune that had brought me there
[20:13] <jarle> After updating to Ubuntu 10.10 none of the AdobeAIR apps is able to open links in external browser, anybody experienced similar problems?
[20:13] <hasen> i wanna make IRC channel
[20:13] <svend> Hi. I'm having some weird problems with skype and pulseaudio. Whenever i chat with someone on skype my microphone "lags". They have to call, and then hang up a few times, before it works again. Any idea, on how i solve this?
[20:14] <mrk_> 'ENOENT (No such file or directory)' for a file which should be there ...http://paste.ubuntu.com/520316/ - can anyone help please?
[20:14] <tensorpudding> bartosz_: mutter means to speak, bitter refers to the curses
[20:14] <RedSingularity> Any terminal commands out there to display the window manager a user is using?
[20:14] <tensorpudding> bartosz_: bitter meaning nasty or cruel in this instance
[20:14] <__dasen__> Has anyone tried unity? It rocks!!! IT's gonna blow windows out of the water!
[20:15] <jwgoerlich> Is there a trick to enabling Unity on Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook under VirtualBox 3.2.10 r66523? VBox 3D acceleration is enabled but I still get: "No required driver detected for Unity."
[20:15] <bartosz_> tensorpudding, mutter is some slang word?
[20:15] <tensorpudding> bartosz_: no, definitely not slang
[20:15] <hasen> i wanna make IRC channel, how can i make it?
[20:15] <bartosz_> tensorpudding, wo hat does it mean..mutter is mother in german
[20:15] <tensorpudding> bartosz_: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/mutter
[20:15] <jarle> mrk_: You have gecko installed I presume?
[20:15] <littlebearz> hasen: get a server edition of the IRC
[20:15] <fneuwald> I'm making a script to install my own application, and trying to install mysql-server using "aptitude install mysql-server -y" - but, when on installation procedure, aptitude ask me for mysql root password. there is some way to aptitude don't ask mysql root password, or I inform some password via script?
[20:16] <bt4> bartosz coś pisał
[20:16] <bt4> ??
[20:16] <mrk_> jarle: i believe gecko is part of the gnome installation
[20:16] <tensorpudding> bartosz_: in german it's translated to murmeln
[20:16] <bt4> bartosz_, elo
[20:16] <bartosz_> tensorpudding, ok thx
[20:16] <hasen> littlebearz: what do you mean by server edition of IRC?
[20:16] <bartosz_> cze bt4
[20:17] <tensorpudding> bartosz_: in polish, mamrocze
[20:17] <bt4> bartosz_,  co tam chciałeś bo dopiero włączyłem xchat
[20:17] <tensorpudding> according to google translate, i do not know polish
[20:17] <xangua> !english
[20:17] <bartosz_> bt4,  nic
[20:17] <mkanyicy> RedSingularity, you mean window manager (like metacity, compiz, emerald ...) or desktop manager (gnome, kde, xfce, ...)
[20:17] <bartosz_> juz
[20:18] <mkanyicy> fneuwald, I don't think its worth to automate that, installation is once off
[20:19] <fneuwald> mkanyicy: how?
[20:19] <mkanyicy> fneuwald, why do you want to write a script to install mysql server?
[20:19] <hasen>  littlebearz: what do you mean by server edition of IRC?
[20:19] <mrk_> jarle, ca i dialogue with you please?
[20:20] <etheretic1> anyone proficient in the use of testdisk here?
[20:20] <jarle> mrk_: sure
[20:20] <slidinghorn> !anyone
[20:20] <fneuwald> mkanyicy: no problem, could be, but how can I install via aptitude passing the mysql root password to aptitude?
[20:20] <eblume> Hi. My workstation (Ubuntu 10.04 amd64) uses a wired lan. I am attempting to set up bridged networking for a virtual machine, and went to edit my /etc/network/interfaces file to do this. However, I was alarmed to find that it has no networking information in it. How is my eth0 adapter configured if it isn't listed there?
[20:20] <tensorpudding> fneuwald: http://www.posteet.com/view/2060
[20:20] <hasen> hey guys, how can i make my own IRC channel?
[20:21] <tensorpudding> fneuwald: might need someupdating, but that looks like what you want
[20:21] <fneuwald> tensorpudding: tsks man
[20:21] <etheretic1> hasen: /join #channel-which-doesn't-exist
[20:21] <mkanyicy> fneuwald, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=981801
[20:21] <eblume> hasen - there is an easy answer to your question, but it would be misleading. Please read http://freenode.net/faq.shtml
[20:22] <fneuwald> tensorpudding and mkanyicy, tks a lot, that's it what I need
[20:22] <hasen> eblume: thanks, but i have read those manuals, there were written some commands that i couldn't understand where should i type them?
[20:22] <kazoo> !service
[20:23] <eblume> Hasen - depending on your client, the command is almost always /join #channel
[20:23] <Phillip> Help
[20:23] <hasen> eblume: thanks at all, let see
[20:24] <johnbyrne> hi guys
[20:24] <eblume> Asking another way - My eth0 interface isn't listed in /etc/network/interfaces - how is it being configured?
[20:24] <eblume> Phillip: Help how?

[20:26] <johnbyrne> I just updated Meerkat and now my eth0 won't work, I tried powering down completely but no joy, and the live CD (pre update) still works. Any ideas?
[20:26] <tensorpudding> Jygga: what was dpkg supposed to be doing?
[20:27] <Jygga> installing the package i build with checkinstall
[20:27] <tensorpudding> and nginx was one of them?
[20:27] <blubloblu> GNAA trolling? What a blast from the past.
[20:27] <Jygga> uhm yes tensorpudding
[20:27] <Maahes_> I tried to upgrade my kernel and it fails to create the initrd image what can I do? http://pastebin.com/3HieTV7c
[20:27] <Maahes_> blubloblu, I know right?
[20:27] <kazoo> Idiot.
[20:28] <Jygga> its cp'ing the config files to that folder and everything
[20:28] <RedSingularity> mkanyicy:  window manager
[20:28] <Jygga> but prints that warning twice
[20:28] <tensorpudding> hmm
[20:28] <kazoo> highlighting me
[20:28] <tensorpudding> does the install script create that directory?
[20:28] <Seeker`> kazoo: just ignore it
[20:28] <kazoo> Yeah,
[20:28] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, did you upgrade the kernel?
[20:29] <Jygga> test -d '/etc/nginx'            || mkdir -p '/etc/nginx'
[20:29] <Jygga> so yes
[20:29] <johnbyrne> I did a standard "Update manager" update, but I don't think the kernel was involved
[20:29] <samuelkadolph> Hello. I'm resizing an ntfs parition using GParted and read that you have to turn the "round to cylinders" option off to not break Windows. I can't find this option in 0.6.2, was it removed?

[20:29] <Bliepo> Hello, I have a problem with my touchpad. When I use the middle mouse button, it acts exactly the same as the left mouse button. When I change the mouse mapping for the left button (so it acts like the right button), the middle button mapping is changed in the same way. Does anyone know how to fix this, so my middle mouse button functions normally again?
[20:30] <Lucias> Hello. I tried reverting to open source drivers from proprietary drivers when I was getting bad performance. Now when I run Ubuntu, I only recieve a purple screen. What to do?
[20:30] <laffer> i get this with vbox - Please install the virtualbox-ose-dkms package and execute modprobe vboxdrv as root but it returs FATAL: Module vboxdrv not found.
[20:30] <Jygga> Bliepo obviously there is a different driver for your 3 button touchpad (which is odd btw)
[20:30] <mkanyicy> RedSingularity, you have to use 'ps' and 'grep'
[20:30] <Bliepo> Jygga, how can I make it use the correct driver then?
[20:30] <Lucias> laffer: Did you install the virtualbox-ose-dkms?
[20:31] <gmitrev> thanks for the help, guys
[20:31] <laffer> yes
[20:31] <gmitrev> problem solved
[20:31] <johnbyrne> Maashes_: should I have upgraded the kernel? And how can I do that now, without a live connection?
[20:31] <laffer> Lucias: yes
[20:31] <mkanyicy> RedSingularity, like 'ps -e | grep compiz'
[20:31] <Lucias> laffer, then I have no idea
[20:31] <Jygga> Bliepo i got no idea which exact model is used in your notebook
[20:31] <laffer> :|
[20:31] <Jygga> so you will have to find that out first and then google a lot
[20:32] <dlyneswork> Are there any backports of 2.6.32 for Jaunty?
[20:32] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, have you tried sudo ifdown eth0 sudo ifup eth0?
[20:32] <Bliepo> Jygga, it is a HP Elitebook 8530w, if that is of any help. Is there a way to see which toucpad is used?
[20:32] <dlyneswork> We need to get a kernel with pause frames ability for the forcedeth driver
[20:32] <CajunLANMan> Does anyone here run Bonic, that might be able to give me some advice on setting it up?
[20:32] <kazoo> haha it's a 200.* ip
[20:32] <kazoo> total drone ip
[20:32] <johnbyrne> Maahes_ , I tried sudo ifconfig eth0 down (and up) in that order but no dice
[20:32] <tim__> hey i accidently deleted /lib/plymouth/themes folder. What is the fastest way to replace those files
[20:33] <tensorpudding> tim__: grab it from backups
[20:33] <VCoolio> tim__: apt-get install --reinstall plymouth ?
[20:33] <johnbyrne> Maahes_, are ifdown and ifup different? I thought they were equivalent to ifconfig up and down
[20:34] <tensorpudding> yes, or reinstall plymouth
[20:34] <tim__> says it installed
[20:34] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, they are.
[20:34] <mkanyicy> tim__, but what were you doing with using 'rm' as a root?
[20:34] <tim__> apt-get remove
[20:34] <xangua> dlyneswork: i believe jaunty is no longer supported, or at least very close
[20:34] <xangua> !Jaunty
[20:35] <tim__> i wasn't i moved a file to plymouth/themes and it deleted /themes
[20:35] <__dasen__> Hi guys I upgraded from Karmic to maverick, but the titlebars aren't in the color of the new color scheme of gnome, does anyone know how to change it?
[20:35] <mkanyicy> tim__, --reinstall will remove and install
[20:35] <tim__> used mv- t ect...
[20:36] <horrible> __dasen__: switch to the new theme
[20:36] <mkanyicy> tim__, well well well
[20:36] <tim__> mkanyicy, tsk tsk i know
[20:37] <__dasen__> horrible: how do I do that (sorry for being so dumb, but I can't find the app to change theme)
[20:37] <heiko> is there an obvious way to add a program launcher to the "start menu" in ubuntu netbook 10.10?
[20:37] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, pastebin the output ifconfig eth0
[20:37] <tim__> mkanyicy, apt-get --reinstall right?
[20:37] <Maahes_> I tried to upgrade my kernel and it fails to create the initrd image what can I do? http://pastebin.com/3HieTV7c
[20:37] <horrible> __dasen__: it's in the "appearance" preferences
[20:38] <MagusOTB> How do I set up my sound so that things can't lock down the soundcard?
[20:38] <area51pilot> __dasen__: system>preferences/appearence
[20:38] <tim__> mkanyicy, never mind
[20:38] <johnbyrne> Maahes_: I'll have to go offline for a bit to do that. I'm in a hotel room and my laptop is now running off the Live CD. It's the only way I can get a connection. So I'll have to restart (again) check it and come back. OK?
[20:38] <horrible> MagusOTB: set up your apps to use Pulseaudio, if they support it
[20:38] <MagusOTB> cause whether or not I can get everything to play sounds seems to be completely arbitrary. and MPD and flash doing it appear to be mutually exclusive, retardless of the fact that MPD is supposed to run through pulse
[20:39] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, no you can mount your laptop's hard drive
[20:39] <Maahes_> you don't have to boot into it
[20:39] <__dasen__> horrible: thanx, it worked :)
[20:39] <horrible> MagusOTB: flash will block anything else, it has nothing to do with pulse
[20:39] <MagusOTB> horrible: but the OS sounds work.
[20:39] <mehwork> how can i install google chrome?
[20:39] <johnbyrne> OK....I'll mount the drive...hang on
[20:39] <Maahes_> MagusOTB, if you're using pulseaudio you should have separate dsp's for each application
[20:39] <Lucias> Hello, I tried to install the proprietary drivers for my ATI Radeon 4670, however the performance fell. I decided to try to revert to the Open Source-drivers, and now when I boot up normally i just see a purple screen.
[20:40] <johnbyrne> Maahes_ : OK...I'll mount the drive....hang on
[20:40] <MagusOTB> Maahes_: Yeah, that makes sense, but MPD just straight up makes no sound about every other time I reboot
[20:40] <horrible> __dasen__: cheers
[20:41] <furi> guys, i've been trying to install the n52te on my computer, and these nostromo-for-linux things aren't working. the installation made it up to the daemon, which starts, but doesn't detect the n52, because the mappings remain the same.
[20:41] <xangua> mehwork: sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
[20:41] <dlyneswork> xangua, just what i wanted to hear :o
[20:41] <mehwork> xangua: why chromium? i thouught you can install google chrome beta now?
[20:42] <johnbyrne> Maahes_ : OK...drive mounted....but won't ifconfig respond to my current configuration (in RAM)? Because it's currently working with the Live CD.
[20:42] <MagusOTB> It thinks it's making sound, it doesn't complain about being unable to open the sound device, it just does nothign and doesn't show up in the sound preferences under applications
[20:42] <Maahes_> ah, yeah you're right
[20:42] <xangua> mehwork: because is open source¿ then go to chrome page and download it
[20:42] <dlyneswork> xangua, We've put off upgrading to 9.1/10.04/10.1 because of startup race conditions in the scripts with nfs when using pxeboot...9.04 is the last release that actually works properly with that
[20:42] <slidinghorn> mehwork, it's been available for a long time...however, at least in my experience, chromium has been less of a problem -- I usually recommend it over chrome itself
[20:43] <horrible> hi, how do i deactivate IPv6 in Ubuntu? (completely deactivate the IPv6 stack, not just remove the v6 IP number)
[20:44] <zealiod> can i pass all traffic to and from a vlan to another interface using iptables?
[20:44] <johnbyrne> Maahes_ : I did do an ifconfig eth0 when booted into the hard drive, and the system just doesn't seem to be seeing the network. The interface appears to be functioning and goes down and up upon command.

[20:46] <Nertil> i own ubuntu server
[20:46] <Nertil> :)
[20:46] <Nertil> no desktop
[20:46] <horrible> Nertil: you could have told us
[20:46] <heiko> is there an obvious way to add a program launcher to the "start menu" in ubuntu netbook 10.10?
[20:46] <xangua> heiko: launch 'alacarte' and edit the menu
[20:47] <Nertil> so now i dont deserv to know

[20:47] <horrible> Nertil: https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/network-configuration.html
[20:47] <k56731> Nertil: And change the line "address"
[20:48] <johnbyrne> Maahes_ : No ideas? It's a hell of a problem.
[20:48] <zniavre> audacious does not want to switch from gtk-interface to winamp classic without crashing what can i do  please?

[20:49] <Maahes_> MagusOTB, have you tried anything here: http://mpd.wikia.com/wiki/PulseAudio ?
[20:49] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, thinking, researching
[20:49] <Maahes_> I've forgotten a few of the places device configs are kept
[20:49] <k56731> horrible: ?

[20:49] <hacked_kernel> how can I check if my laptop touchpad has multitouch support or not?
[20:50] <johnbyrne> hacked_kernel: What kind of touchpad do you have?
[20:51] <lathan> Can metacity bind a keyboard shortcut to the Right Control key? (gnome 2.32, on Maverick 2.6.35-22 )
[20:51] <hacked_kernel> johnbyrne, i have Dell Inspiron 1525
[20:51] <gartral__> how do i schedule a fsck check on reboot?
[20:51] <keii> hi all
[20:51] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, okay, just remind me, eth0 is there right? Did it give a whole host of information under eth0 when you ifconfig ed it? or whas it like 1 or 2 lines and mostly didn't say anything?
[20:52] <LjL> !fsck | gartral_
[20:52] <johnbyrne> hacked_kernel: I just googled it and I think you might be in luck. Synaptics touchpads do have multi-touch support, or so it seems. I have a Dell Inspiron 1501 and it has a Synaptic. The google url is http://www.google.com/cse?cx=partner-pub-9300639326172081%3Ac6lzq8-dhwz&ie=UTF-8&sa=Search&q=does+my+touchpad+have+multitouch+support%3F&hl=en
[20:52] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, I mean originally when you were logged in your laptop normally
[20:53] <glassresistor> so our company just threw ubuntu on 8 laptops, we all have been using linux for years, but this time we setup an admin account and then personal accounts with sudo privledges
[20:53] <johnbyrne> Maahes_: Yep...so do I. It was behaving as if it was working perfectly. I even had the hotel call in the IT staff to 'fix' the connection point. Unfortunately it just won't see the connection. All when booted normally.
[20:53] <glassresistor> but now gksu synaptic , which is the command in the menu no longer works cause it wants the admin password, not my sudo password
[20:54] <glassresistor> but sudo synaptic does work, any idea on the best way to fix this?
[20:54] <WLU> I want to delete all files that start with a particular file name but DOES NOT end with a particular extension. Any ideas, I scoured the internet with no luck (I know that this is not an ubuntu question but hope to get some reponse..)
[20:54] <delinquentme> whats the software package that lets ubuntu interface with a NTFS file system ... like if i want to yank windoez files off of a old HD to save them
[20:55] <lathan> glassresistor: gksu is su, not sudo
[20:55] <lathan> glassresistor: try gksudo synaptic
[20:56] <glassresistor> lathan: i know but look at the command in in the system->admin->synaptic it uses gksu blah blah synaptic and it doesn't work
[20:57] <glassresistor> becuase you have to be root for that to work
[20:57] <DjMadness> Hi, i am running ubuntu 9.04 on one of my servers, i was wondering does anyone know which package provides the utility resolveip ?
[20:57] <bastidrazor> delinquentme: if you're wanting a GUI method then 'ntfs-config' would be the way to go.
[20:57] <hacked_kernel> i ran gesturetest 0 0 0xffffffff  and i get no output
[20:57] <keii> what's a good music player for ubuntu?
[20:57] <keii> I don't like rhythmbox
[20:57] <blakkheim> DjMadness: 9.04 is no longer supported
[20:57] <blakkheim> keii: mpd
[20:57] <delinquentme> bastidrazor, and that would just interface with any usb device?
[20:57] <bastidrazor> keii: i like banshee
[20:58] <celtibero> Hello, I can't find the Restricted Drivers Manager in System / Administration
[20:58] <nothingspecial> keii: guayadeque
[20:58] <lathan> glassresistor: what is in $USER?   echo $USER
[20:58] <glassresistor> lathan: i agree gksudo or sudo does work but in the menu the command is gksu, which is set by ubuntu itself, and works on my home sytem but not using an account with sudo and admin priviledges that wasn't installed during boot
[20:59] <glassresistor> lathan: Mike
[20:59] <dlyneswork> Are there any dependencies on the ubuntu 2.6.32 kernel from 10.04 that would prevent me from using it on 9.04?
[20:59] <nothingspecial> celtibero: They changed it to additional drivers
[20:59] <Chaos2358> hey guys i have a complicated question. I have alot of sources and my Ubuntu is really customized. But i am getting a new laptop tomorrow. my question is; can i take the hard drive out of my dell laptop and put it in the new hp laptop and just change drivers to keep my ubuntu the way it is?
[20:59] <lathan> glassresistor: and that's you're username
[20:59] <grid_> i have a file /etc/samba/smbusers that has only one user that is nobody = nobody, i have no other smbusers files on my computer, however i see 5 users in my samba GUI tool from ubuntu, where are they saved in what file?
[20:59] <bastidrazor> delinquentme: i would assume so, yes.
[20:59] <celtibero> nothingspecial Oh, ok, thank you.
[20:59] <glassresistor> lathan: well not really but yes it prints my username
[20:59] <glassresistor> lathan: avoid publically giving out names
[20:59] <lathan> glassresistor: fine
[21:00] <lathan> glassresistor: because if the $USER variable is different, it expects a different user's password
[21:00] <celtibero> nothingspecial My TV card doesn't tune anything at all, since I upgraded from Jaunty to Maverick, (clean installation), any ideas why this happens?
[21:00] <DjMadness> blakkheim: which package provides it in 10.04 then ? i am unable to upgrade due to its a XEN vps...
[21:00] <lathan> glassresistor: does this same behavior happen with su?
[21:00] <Chaos2358> hey guys i have a complicated question. I have alot of sources and my Ubuntu is really customized. But i am getting a new laptop tomorrow. my question is; can i take the hard drive out of my dell laptop and put it in the new hp laptop and just change drivers to keep my ubuntu the way it is?
[21:00] <nothingspecial> celtibero: Never used one, sorry
[21:00] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, did you try manually calling dhclient on eth0?
[21:00] <lathan> Can you bind a keyboard shortcut to the Right Control key, but not the Left? Within gnome 2.32, on Maverick,
[21:00] <glassresistor> lathan: yeah su chokes on a correct password
[21:01] <Maahes_> Chaos2358, yes.
[21:01] <Pauly> anyone have nokia n900
[21:01] <lathan> glassresistor: does that password work fine for logging in?
[21:01] <lathan> glassresistor: try changing the password to the same thing
[21:01] <glassresistor> lathan: yeah but i can't give you instructions i had to do that for someone with a broken key
[21:01] <Chaos2358> Maahas how hard is it to accomplish?
[21:01] <glassresistor> lathan: yeah
[21:01] <glassresistor> lathan: and sudo works fine etc.
[21:02] <celtibero> nothingspecial It's ok.
[21:02] <Chaos2358> Maahes would it be a simple transition?
[21:02] <lathan> glassresistor: is this gksu being called with the environment variable could be USER=root ?
[21:02] <keii> there's a lot of mpd clients
[21:02] <celtibero> nothingspecial thanks anyway.
[21:02] <Maahes_> Chaos2358, in general it's pretty easy to update the drivers unless your network drivers are screwed, but even then, you can manually install new drivers, or you can chroot into the laptop drive from a live cd and do an upgrade that way, and it should repair drivers.
[21:02] <lathan> glassresistor: I know that keyboard shortcuts are called with a different user
[21:02] <VCoolio> lathan: the keys are different (check xev output), so yes, at least with xbindkeys
[21:02] <nothingspecial> celtibero: :)
[21:02] <delinquentme> ... is this normal??? 3 hours to shrink a ubuntu partition 20 gigs??
[21:03] <Pauly> can i stream 720p Xvid video to xbox 360 using ubunutu 10.10 x64???
[21:03] <glassresistor> lathan: i didn't know the about shortcuts
[21:03] <glassresistor> lathan: gksu synaptic doesn't work in a term with the user set correctly either
[21:03] <lathan> VCoolio: I've looked at xev, but when you try and bind it into metacty shortcuts, I can't get metacity's interpretor to map to that keycode
[21:03] <Chaos2358> Maahes ok thanks alot. i spent two weeks getting my computer set up the way it is now but my integrated graphics card is screwing up so i just ordered a brand new laptop and dont want to go through all that crap again
[21:04] <ePirat> horrible: sry, my client is very stupid, i will turn off the away nick!
[21:04] <Maahes_> Chaos2358, the generic kernel is designed to work with most x86 hardware, your video card, if you don't have the specific driver loaded, will fall back to Vesa or mesa, I forget which, which definitely supports your video card
[21:04] <VCoolio> lathan: I'm not sure if you can do that with metacity, see if you can enter something specific in gconf-editor at application>metacity
[21:04] <Maahes_> I tried to upgrade my kernel and it fails to create the initrd image what can I do? http://pastebin.com/3HieTV7c
[21:05] <lathan> glassresistor: can you try  sudo apt-get install --reinstall gksu
[21:05] <glassresistor> lathan: let me get the machine on again and ill let you know
[21:05] <Pauly> any1?
[21:05] <Chaos2358> maahes ok so how bout this. once i have put the hard drive in the new laptop and got the drivers for it. will lucid remove the old drivers from this dell automatically?
[21:05] <lathan> Chaos2358: if you do a autoclean
[21:05] <lathan> Chaos2358: sudo apt-get autoclean
[21:05] <Maahes_> what lathan said
[21:06] <Chaos2358> lathan ok great thanks alot guys.

[21:06] <Guest24287> hi everyone can anybody help me with my wireless problem?
[21:06] <fep> use to be /etc/iptables
[21:07] <Chaos2358> guest24287 what is your problem
[21:07] <glassresistor> lathan: one thing ive noticed is that the password prompt looks differnt, it has the save to keyring option stuff, while on my other box this does not show up
[21:07] <Guest24287> i installed ubuntu 10.10 but my wireless network is not working
[21:07] <qorep> what is up with breaking compatability with apt for external sources?
[21:07] <qorep> like when I add a ppa
[21:07] <nebula> lathan, yes :(
[21:07] <johnbyrne> Maahes_: How do I manually call a dhclient on eth0?
[21:07] <Chaos2358> Guest24287, checked in hardware drivers?
[21:08] <horrible> qorep: we like to make life hard on you
[21:08] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, sudo dhclient eth0
[21:08] <qorep> horrible: so it would seem
[21:08] <Guest24287> yes, it says that firm ware is missing.
[21:08] <horrible> qorep: i take personal responsibility for this change
[21:08] <Sean93> this torrent keeps freezeing any program i use to download it
[21:08] <qorep> horrible: you better!
[21:08] <lathan> nebula: System->Preferences->Main Menu. Wine should show up (unchecked) in the list for Applications, check it
[21:08] <MagusOTB> Does anybody know how to make PHP display errors rather than dying silently with an HTTP status 500?
[21:08] <johnbyrne> Maahes_: ok....I'll need to reboot into the HDD to try it out. I'll be back.
[21:08] <qorep> need a drink to calm me down from this utter brokeness
[21:08] <fep> anyone????
[21:08] <fep> where is iptables in ubuntu! ?
[21:09] <DrManhattan> MagusOTB, I think display errors is one of the settings in your php.ini
[21:09] <DrManhattan> or whatever the modern equivalent is
[21:09] <DrManhattan> php5.ini maybe
[21:09] <Sean93> how do i fix it?
[21:09] <fep> DrManhattan: where is iptables in ubuntu?
[21:09] <Guest24287> chaos2358, it is good on Livecd but when i installed it, its not working anymore
[21:09] <horrible> fep: the iptables command is in /sbin/
[21:09] <DrManhattan> fep, you got the heck out of me
[21:09] <fep> horrible: thanks =)
[21:10] <lathan> MagusOTB: why are you asking php questions in a ubuntu channel? just a question...
[21:10] <horrible> fep: why do you need to know? just type "sudo iptables" and it should run it
[21:10] <DrManhattan> lathan, perhaps his server is an ubuntu one and he wants to see if there's any difference between "stock" and "Ubuntu"
[21:10] <fep> horrible: i mean the iptables.conf file
[21:10] <lathan> DrManhattan: possible...
[21:10] <fep> horrible: iptables.rules
[21:11] <horrible> fep: you can store your rule files anywhere
[21:11] <DrManhattan> floodbot is flooding
[21:11] <nebula> lathan,  10 X 10 X
[21:11] <lathan> fep: see iptables-save
[21:11] <Dcite> fep: I.. didn't know iptables had such things.... it's usually controlled by another firewall like shorewall or bastile.
[21:11] <fep> horrible: i need to know where they ar e....
[21:11] <lathan> fep: man iptables-save
[21:11] <martincxce> hi everyone, i as just wondering about that bug with modprobe during boot up... is it going to be fixed? have you got any news or solutions?
[21:11] <fep> lathan: ok
[21:11] <fep> thanks
[21:11] <DrManhattan> firestarter is what I used in Centos for firewalling
[21:11] <DrManhattan> and yeah im getting suspicious of floodbot now
[21:11] <horrible> fep: you make them yourself

[21:13] <lathan> Guest24287: #ubuntu-app-devel
[21:13] <glassresistor> lathan: hey so reinstalling didn't help, from what i can tell the difference seems to be that its looking to unlock my keyring and not just run a command
[21:13] <Sean93> sudo kill -9 2428 doesnt kill rtorrent
[21:14] <Dcite> Sean93: ta
[21:14] <Sean93> ta?
[21:14] <Dcite> errroops
[21:14] <mkanyicy> Sean93, does PID 2428 exists?
[21:14] <lathan> glassresistor: yah, the gk...commands might do that
[21:14] <Sean93> yes
[21:14] <Dcite> sean: Thats 2428 is the PID, are you sure it's right still?
[21:14] <glassresistor> lathan: how do i give a user control over the keyring?
[21:14] <Sean93> yes im looking at it in top
[21:14] <glassresistor> or set the keyring to my user
[21:14] <lathan> glassresistor: I'm still trying to find it...I don't really like it...did it change names?
[21:15] <Dcite> Sean93: How about killall -SIGKILL rtorrent
[21:15] <mkanyicy> Sean93, paste here the output of 'ps -e | grep rtorrent'
[21:15] <glassresistor> lathan: the keyring? no clue not my area
[21:15] <lathan> glassresistor: its called Password and Encryption Keys (under System->Preferences)
[21:16] <Sean93> 2428 ?        00:03:17 rtorrent
[21:17] <mkanyicy> Sean93, now try 'sudo kill 2428' (again)
[21:17] <lathan> glassresistor: can you test if it is requiring the root password? or is that not available
[21:17] <paranoidi> hmph, upgraded my ubuntu server and php got broken in users public html, this is not helping http://pastebin.com/8qdydbwB
[21:17] <lathan> mkanyicy: Sean93 sudo kill -9 2428
[21:17] <mkanyicy> anon33_, you finally got going
[21:17] <LiamH> When running from a USB stick, how do I set it so that I can saved configured values (e.g. network settings) on the stick?
[21:17] <mkanyicy> lathan, Sean93 did that already
[21:17] <Maahes_> does ubuntu auto-detect multitouch touchpads?
[21:17] <Sean93> its still alive
[21:18] <lathan> Sean93: is this an application that you did ctrl-z ?
[21:18] <Sean93> crtl-z?
[21:18] <lathan> Sean93: was it started in the command line
[21:18] <Sean93> yes
[21:18] <lathan> Sean93: in the command line, if you hit ctrl-z it pauses the program, and lets you do something else
[21:18] <martincxce> hi, have you heard about this issue with boot up: modprobe: Fatal: Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.35-22-generic/modules.dep: no such file or directory, have you come up with any solution? or know about some fix?

[21:22] <Sean93> ppid is 1
[21:22] <guntbert> kpoman: use a text based browser (eg w3m) to look for mirrors at ubuntu.com - then edit the file appropriately
[21:22] <lathan> Sean93: don't kill 1

[21:29] <snus> hi i was wondering which driver i should select for brother dl-5340D since its not in the list
[21:29] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, okay, either that means they don't have a dhcp client, which I doubt, that their dhcp client is poorly configured, which is possible, or you have a screwed up lease (maybe) I've had this problem in the past too hrrm
[21:29] <glassresistor> lathan: yeah i don't knwo the root password
[21:30] <glassresistor> im not suppose to know it
[21:30] <mkanyicy> Nesto1000, try to do './configure' and then 'make' and then 'sudo make install'
[21:30] <Nesto1000> mkaay, where do i do that? in the terminal?
[21:30] <mkanyicy> glassresistor, what do you want to do?
[21:30] <glassresistor> lathan: sorry boss just looked over my shoulder
[21:30] <Nesto1000> mkanyicy, where do i do that? in the terminal?
[21:30] <johnbyrne> Maahes_: It was working fine until the update when it just stopped working altogether. So I don't think the problem is on their end.
[21:30] <mkanyicy> Nesto1000, yes in terminal
[21:31] <mkanyicy> Nesto1000, you have to 'cd' to the folder with the 'tar.gz' file
[21:31] <glassresistor> mkanyicy: me personally nothing some of the linux newbs want to gui package manager but it refused to let them open it, says that there passwords are wrong
[21:31] <nubuntu> my linksys router wont allow access to more than computer. can someone tell me where to start?

[21:32] <Nesto1000> how do i do that mkanyicy?
[21:32] <glassresistor> mkanyicy: we are both admin and in the sudoers file
[21:32] <mkanyicy> Nesto1000, where is you .tar.gz now?
[21:32] <Nesto1000> downloads folder mkanyicy
[21:33] <Nesto1000> do you want me to put it on the desktop?>

[21:33] <Desca> I got a unallocated partition i want to use
[21:34] <mkanyicy> Nesto1000, no its fine, open Terminal and then type 'cd ~/Downloads' and then 'ls *.tar.gz'
[21:34] <k56731> Desca: Are you installing Desktop or Alternate.
[21:34] <k56731> ?
[21:34] <mkanyicy> Nesto1000, do not include the ' ' quotes

[21:34] <Desca> Should be the regular 10.10 AMD64 i downloaded
[21:34] <Desca> So should be desktop k56731
[21:34] <Nesto1000> yea i know mkanyicy, I may not be that smart... but im sure not dumb
[21:34] <mark7845> has anyone read this http://arstechnica.com/open-source/news/2010/10/shuttleworth-unity-shell-will-be-default-desktop-in-ubuntu-1104.ars
[21:35] <glassresistor> mkanyicy: but peon is in the sudoers file and the sudo and admin group

[21:35] <wessel> I have a random algorithm which I would like to run multiple times in parallel, can I create a bash script or something to start up all the algorithms?
[21:35] <mark7845> shite
[21:35] <mkanyicy> glassresistor, can that other user run 'gksudo synaptic' or not?
[21:35] <mark7845> j #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:35] <wessel> currently I start my algorithm java FIX > FIXrun1.txt
[21:35] <k56731> Desca: ubuntu-10.10-desktop-amd64.iso, right?
[21:35] <mark7845> 3rd time lucky
[21:36] <glassresistor> mkanyicy: i don't have access to the admin user but peon can run but gksudo and sudo just fine
[21:36] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, okay try this: edit your /etc/network/interfaces file, and add the following lines: allow-hotplug eth0 ;  iface eth0 inet dhcp. If that does not work, comment out allow-hotplug and put in auto eth0
[21:36] <zanus> I currently have two VGA comptatible monitors plugged in, but only one shows up in "Detect Monitors"

[21:36] <zanus> any ideas?
[21:36] <mkanyicy> Nesto1000, extract the archive like this 'mkdir mydest' and 'tar xzvf filename.tar.gz -C mydest'
[21:37] <Awaysca> Bah, seems like i got disconned
[21:37] <glassresistor> whats wierd is on my machine(same version build etc) it mentions nothing of a keyring but on the company system it askes about saving/not saving to the keyring
[21:37] <glassresistor> its confusing
[21:37] <johnbyrne> Maahes_: Thanks for that. I'll reboot and try it now
[21:37] <mkanyicy> glassresistor, so is it admin or peon that has a problem?
[21:38] <Nesto1000> mkanyicy, I get this error: mkdir mydest' and 'tar xzvf filename.tar.gz -C mydest
[21:38] <kpoman> where do I download the main sources.list file ?
[21:38] <glassresistor> mkanyicy: peon
[21:38] <mkanyicy> glassresistor, paste 'id peon' and 'id admin' here
[21:38] <kpoman> for the us.archive.ubuntu.com repo ?
[21:38] <kpoman> please help !
[21:38] <glassresistor> mkanyicy: my asumption is that admin works fine and that the password its look for is the admin password and not mine
[21:38] <wessel> How can I write multiple outputs of Java to a file? I wish to start:  java FIX > FIXrun1.txt and java FIX > FIXrun2.txt      but if I put this in a bash script it only creates FIXrun2.txt
[21:38] <mkanyicy> Nesto1000, can I pm you?
[21:39] <Nesto1000> yea thats fine
[21:40] <lathan> glassresistor: go to System->Preferences->Main Menu, find the Synaptic Package manager, hit properties, and change gksu to gksudo
[21:40] <BalSak1> hi guys. is there any  chance of a decent voice/speech-recognition in ubuntu? I've often have my hands full or engaged elsewhere, but I'd like to dictate mail verbally
[21:40] <Sean93> what would make a torrent freeze whatever program tries to download it?
[21:40] <lathan> glassresistor: if that doesn't work, create a new item that does that gksudo...

[21:43] <lathan> kpoman: that means that your sources.list has a bunch of repositories that no longer exist
[21:43] <kpoman> guntbert: that is why I would love to get an original sources.list for us.ubuntu.com lucid

I Then tried to retore the parition in linux using fdisk but windows is asking me to format the drive as if the filesystem was destroyed, when I know for a fact it hasnt been touched. Any recommendations?
[21:45] <speedrunnerG55> thank you

[21:45] <kpoman> guntbert: quite odd
[21:45] <badpenguin86> speedrunnerG55, If that doesn't work, let me know
[21:45] <speedrunnerG55> i think it did...let mee see if it works
[21:45] <kpoman> guntbert: I am doing a do-release-upgrade -d

[21:46] <adamb> Anyone know a channel i can get help with apache, #apache only have 8 users it seems
[21:46] <bastidrazor> kpoman: you've changed your sources.list manually to indicae the newer version?
[21:46] <bratkartoffel> hello
[21:46] <bastidrazor> adamb: #httpd
[21:46] <guntbert> kpoman: wait - that will take you to natty (pre alpha)
[21:46] <razz1> I need an application that does the following: arranges paragraphs in alphabetical order only based on the first word. Any recommendations?
[21:47] <bratkartoffel> why do fonts in ubuntu look much nicer than fonts in other distros?
[21:47] <glassresistor> lathan: yeah i can do that, was hoping to fix the general problem so that it doesn't keep popping up
[21:47] <speedrunnerG55> missing plugin
[21:47] <aeon-ltd> familia_: try starting the gnome network manager
[21:47] <kpoman> bastidrazor: no, I want to use the main tools. the problem is X and graphical tools dont work (they make the computer hang, and the computer is 2500km away from me)
[21:47] <speedrunnerG55> it didnt work
[21:47] <badpenguin86> speedrunnerG55, in firefox?
[21:47] <speedrunnerG55> no
[21:47] <kpoman> I suppose upgrading distro will help somehow
[21:47] <speedrunnerG55> chrome
[21:47] <kpoman> but I need to do all from the command line, whenever I launch X or derivatives (tightvncserver i.e.) it hangs the computer
[21:47] <familia_> in gnome wifi works very good
[21:47] <snarkster> if i was doing a dist-upgrade and it locked up how do i restart the upgrade?
[21:47] <speedrunnerG55> should i use firefox?
[21:48] <glassresistor> mkanyicy: from what i can tell neither seems to have significant differences
[21:48] <badpenguin86> speedrunnerG55, try sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[21:48] <mkanyicy> glassresistor, i see
[21:48] <kpoman> bastidrazor: the main tool being do-release-upgrade afaik
[21:48] <mkanyicy> glassresistor, I am a bit clueless
[21:49] <kipi> hi guys. is there any  chance of a decent voice/speech-recognition in ubuntu? I've often have my hands full or engaged elsewhere, but I'd like to dictate mail verbally
[21:49] <kipi> ?
[21:49] <kpoman> bastidrazor: and it bases himself on the current distro mirrors / pubs
[21:49] <guntbert> kpoman: that will not help but probably make your system unusable - please be patient
[21:49] <speedrunnerG55> E: Package 'sun-java6-plugin' has no installation candidate
[21:49] <snarkster> repo not setup
[21:49] <kpoman> guntbert: it is already unusable. at least ssh / wget is working. I need to upgrade
[21:49] <razz1> I need an application that does the following: arranges paragraphs in alphabetical order only based on the first word. Any recommendations? can I use macros in open office to achieve this? Any help?
[21:49] <johnbyrne> Maahes_: You totally ROCK! Thank you SO MUCH! I am now logged in from my normal boot. I made the changes you suggested and then had to do a dhclient request and I am ONLINE! Woohoo!
[21:49] <snarkster> need multiverse to get sun-java6-plugin
[21:49] <kpoman> guntbert: this started failing after some update I dont know which one
[21:49] <kpoman> guntbert: I will now upgrade to 10.10
[21:50] <badpenguin86>  speedrunnerG55 Yeah, you need a repo, snarkster is right
[21:50] <glassresistor> mkanyicy: i am too, i also can't figure out what ubuntu with use gksu vs gksudo?
[21:50] <snarkster> if i was doing a dist-upgrade and it locked up how do i restart the upgrade?
[21:50] <kipi> razz1: sort
[21:50] <speedrunnerG55> ?
[21:50] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, :) No problem. I've had the same problem, and I used to have to troubleshoot network connections for people in hotels :)
[21:50] <speedrunnerG55> whats that?
[21:50] <kipi> razz1: & other string-manipulation functions
[21:50] <guntbert> kpoman: if you insist - but don't expect support afterwards - with -d you will *not* upgrade to 10.10 but to 11.04 /pre alpha)
[21:50] <aeon-ltd> familia_: try starting nm-applet
[21:50] <kpoman> but anyway thats not the problem right now ;) the problem is how to do that on command line ! I am trying right now
[21:50] <badpenguin86> speedrunnerG55, Open software center, under the applications menu
[21:50] <kpoman> it tells maverick here
[21:51] <kpoman> guntbert: it downloaded maverig.tar.gz
[21:51] <bullgard4> Tracker Search Tool only finds files which have been modified between 2007 and 2009-08. Why? ~/.config/tracker/tracker.cfg apparently does not list time restrictions

[21:51] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, sorry it took so long, I was trying to minimize the number of times you had to reboot, whilst I troubleshooted ideas.
[21:51] <mkanyicy> glassresistor, I think gksu is wrong for invoking synaptic
[21:51] <speedrunnerG55> open
[21:51] <badpenguin86> speedrunnerG55, hit edit, then software sources
[21:51] <Maahes_> bulldog98, did you turn off tracker indexer?
[21:51] <speedrunnerG55> ok
[21:51] <guntbert> kpoman: well - I never tried that - so I cannot give support in that case, sorry and Good luck :-)
[21:52] <speedrunnerG55> ok?
[21:52] <badpenguin86> speedrunnerG55, Check the fourth box, with (multiverse) at the end
[21:52] <johnbyrne> Maahes_: Well, thanks again. I can't say it enough. This is absolutely 'mission critical' for me. Have a fantastic day. No problem about how long it took. It would have taken me......well.....a loooong time! And now I can sort this if the same thing happens to my Media PC at home when I update! Thanks again!
[21:52] <speedrunnerG55> it has a check
[21:52] <kazoo> How can i change my Max Open Files?
[21:52] <badpenguin86> speedrunnerG55, Hmm... Lemme look
[21:52] <kazoo> it's at 1024 yet i need it at at least 9999
[21:53] <Maahes_> johnbyrne, :) Thank you, I hope the rest of your day goes well
[21:53] <nlsthzn> close
[21:53] <johnbyrne> Thank you for your help Ubuntu forum......Bye for now!

[21:54] <snarkster> what is the dpk command to finish nistalling software
[21:54] <grid_> how do i set my bash history to a .txt file?
[21:54] <badpenguin86> speedrunnerG55, This makes no sense, can you open a terminal?
[21:54] <bullgard4> grid_: "set"? 'What do you mean?
[21:54] <speedrunnerG55> ok
[21:54] <aeon-ltd> snarkster: sudo dpkg --configure -a, if your looking for that
[21:54] <speedrunnerG55> open
[21:55] <grid_> bulldog98: i want to write the terminal history to a file history.txt
[21:55] <badpenguin86> speedrunnerG55, Type sudo apt-get update

[21:55] <etheretic1> Trying to play a matroska video file in gnome-mplayer. The audio plays, the video not, and the time-elapsed is frozen at 00:00. Have tried different video driver settings, with no change. Playing avi files works fine. What could be wrong?
[21:55] <badpenguin86> speedrunnerG55, that will update all your packages
[21:55] <brontoeee> what would be a decent ppa for gimpshop?
[21:56] <speedrunnerG55> ok
[21:56] <badpenguin86> speedrunnerG55, is that done yet?
[21:56] <snarkster> sudo dpjk -configure -a does nothing
[21:56] <glassresistor> mkanyicy: i agree but it works on my system and someone in the Ubuntu dev team either made a decision or a typo
[21:57] <glassresistor> mkanyicy: check you link, which i assume works, and don't tell me it doesn't say that
[21:57] <snarkster> let me try that again.. sudo dpkg --configure -a does nothing
[21:57] <bullgard4> grid_: cat /home/<userame>/.bash_history > history.txt
[21:57] <grid_> bulldog98: thanks
[21:57] <razz1> kipi: thanks for the help, I have never done this before but looks like the data has to be in a tabular format. What I am trying to do is I have several paragraphs in my document that I want to sort alphabetically using the first word. Does this mean I need to convert the whole document in to a excel spreadsheet?
[21:58] <snarkster> excel?
[21:58] <badpenguin86> speedrunnerG55, Is it done?
[21:59] <kazoo> How can i change my Max Open Files?
[21:59] <guntbert> snarkster: you probably want sudo dpkg-reconfigure
[21:59] <brontoeee> etheretic1, how about vlc?
[22:00] <gartral|p> How do I schedule fsck to run on teboot?
[22:00] <brontoeee> etheretic1, what is the video codec used?

[22:00] <glassresistor> mkanyicy: just went in and hardwired some things no luck
[22:00] <drManhattan_> fsck runs during startup
[22:00] <kipi>  hi guys. is there any  chance of a decent voice/speech-recognition in ubuntu? I've often have my hands full or engaged elsewhere, but I'd like to dictate mail verbally
[22:01] <glassresistor> anyone on the ubuntu team which knows why gksu is used for launchers?
[22:01] <gartral|p> drManhattan_: its not working
[22:01] <bullgard4> kipi: No.
[22:01] <kipi> bullgard4: thanks
[22:01] <Buttons840> can you scp all text files in a directory?  something like scp 1.2.3.4:/etc/*.txt     ?
[22:01] <badpenguin86> glassresistor, because there is no terminal window. gksudo pops up a dialog in which to type your password
[22:02] <drManhattan_> yes you can scp
[22:02] <Mathuin> Buttons840: scp 1.2.3.4:/etc/*.txt .
[22:02] <Mathuin> You need to tell scp the destination.
[22:02] <gartral|p> drManhattan_: lol, like your name. Just watched the watchmen the other day
[22:02] <Buttons840> Mathuin: would that get a text file in /etc/foo/bar.txt   ?
[22:02] <Mathuin> How can I make my netbook running 10.04.1 LTS connect to the wifi whenever it's turned on?
[22:03] <kipi> razz1: no. if you have a tech document, you can parse the data into segments (seperated by multiple whitespaces), and then sort those segments
[22:03] <Mathuin> Buttons840: no, it would only get /etc/bar.txt
[22:03] <sandking> where can i get libgettext? it isn't in synaptics - only for ruby
[22:03] <Buttons840> Mathuin: that's what i want, a recurive way to gather files (i want to get all jars from a server, because i can't seem to locate a package)
[22:03] <brontoeee> kipi, maybe opera
[22:04] <Mathuin> Buttons840: ssh to 1.2.3.4 and run something like "find /etc -name "*.jar" -print | xargs tar cf /tmp/jarfile.tar", then scp the jarfile.tar where you want it?
[22:04] <Buttons840> Mathuin: thans
[22:04] <Mathuin> Buttons840: good luck!
[22:05] <enav> I tested unity on my pc but when i came back to gnome i lose the title bar on maximized windows... what i can do to fix it?
[22:05] <brontoeee> Mathuin, it works like that here
[22:05] <mkanyicy> what is that package that install all the compilers for c and c++ and stuff, is it build-essential?
[22:05] <ghostknife> For some reason when I press ctrl+c with "sudo" it asks for the password again. Meaning, if I cancel it I have to press ctrl+c twice. I've ignored it so far, since it's not serious. Though it's quite irritating. Anyone perhaps know why it would do this?
[22:05] <Buttons840> Mathuin: i'll probably use finds exec command?
[22:05] <commodoor> hi guys
[22:06] <Pagos> So uh, I am currently using chromium.
[22:06] <Pici> mkanyicy: yes
[22:06] <commodoor> what are the benefits of puting home directory in a different partition?
[22:06] <aeon-ltd> commodoor: reinstalls are easier
[22:06] <Mathuin> Buttons840:  I use xargs because the find command will run once per jar whereas the xargs will run once per many arguments.
[22:06] <Pagos> And the scroll wheel changing tabs is really annoying.
[22:06] <area51pilot> commodoor: recovery or data loss prevention is a nice plus
[22:06] <Pagos> How can I turn it off?
[22:06] <Mathuin> commodoor: when your videos/pictures directory fills the partition it doesn't crash the OS
[22:06] <commodoor> does a reinstall overwright the home directory?
[22:06] <zanus> I obviously have two monitors hooked up, http://pastebin.com/9tKjcJyR . Though no matter what I do.. I even did a "sudo Xorg -configure" I can't get the second one on that list to show up.  At one time it showed a bunch of gray/red/blue pixels at login, but that's about it
[22:07] <Mathuin> Pagos: is the mouse on the tabs and not on the window?  That happened to me too.
[22:07] <Pagos> It's on the tabs.
[22:07] <Mathuin> brontoeee:  The 'connect automatically' box wasn't checked.  Oops.
[22:07] <Mathuin> Pagos: move it to the actual window and the problem will go away.
[22:07] <Pagos> I like to center click to close tabs, and it always switches tabs.
[22:07] <enav> missing title bard after try unity what i can do to fix it?????
[22:07] <guntbert> commodoor: if it is not on a separate partition - yes
[22:08] <guntbert> !home | commodoor
[22:08] <etheretic1> brontoeee: pardon delay - xv, gl, x11, ...
[22:08] <Mathuin> Also, does anyone here actively use zoneminder?  Looks like an awesome piece of software, but it's somewhat thinly documented.
[22:09] <commodoor> ubottu, thnx for the link, i know what the home directory is, i never used a different partition
[22:09] <brontoeee> etheretic1, install mediainfo, then do : mediainfo file.mkv and post the results into some online pastebin, provide the link, is it playing with vlc btw?
[22:09] <guntbert> commodoor: look at the link you got from ubottu
[22:09] <razz1> kipi: is this what you are talking about?
[22:09] <commodoor> guntbert, reading it thnx
[22:10] <razz1> kipi: sorry: here is the link: http://api.openoffice.org/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/util/XSortable.html
[22:10] <mkanyicy> Mathuin, what does it do
[22:11] <etheretic1> brontoeee: E: Unable to locate package mediainfo
[22:11] <mkanyicy> can ffmpeg provide the same audio quality as lame on variable bitrate (VBR) mode?
[22:11] <brontoeee> etheretic1, its not in repos i belive
[22:11] <etheretic1> brontoeee: vlc won't run.

[22:11] <mkanyicy> can ffmpeg provide the same audio quality as lame on variable bitrate (VBR) mode when encoding mp3 audio files?
[22:11] <drManhattan_> why vlc won't run ??
[22:12] <mkanyicy> drManhattan_, because its dead?
[22:12] <MagusOTB> is there a way to make the function keys on my mac keyboard function as function keys and not media buttons? I need F11 a lot more frequently than I need to turn the volume down...
[22:12] <zanus> where is xorg.conf in meerkat
[22:12] <mkanyicy> drManhattan_, why dont you use MPlayer?
[22:12] <brontoeee> mkanyicy, if you use the same lame command line, then i dont see why not, use presets in both cases btw
[22:12] <Quintin> what is the name of the disk free tool so I can launch it from command line?
[22:12] <zealiod> how can i route all traffic on eth1.111, eth.112 and eth.113 to eth0?
[22:12] <zanus> /etc/X11/xorg.conf does not exist
[22:13] <mkanyicy> brontoeee, no I dont need 'presets' I need to set my own average bitrate
[22:13] <speedrunnerG55> im back
[22:13] <speedrunnerG55> i lost my internet for a minute
[22:14] <commodoor> ubottu, guntbert thnx i think i'm gonna start using a different partition for home
[22:14] <speedrunnerG55> but it didnt work
[22:14] <brontoeee> mkanyicy, then use --preset yourbitrate
[22:14] <drManhattan_> exit
[22:14] <mkanyicy> brontoeee, and besides I am a bit choosy about --vbr-old over --vbr-new even on lame, so ffmpeg will find it hard to get my trust
[22:14] <speedrunnerG55> sudu apt update?
[22:14] <brontoeee> mkanyicy, custom lame command lines are usually very lame, but up to you
[22:14] <commodoor> guntbert, ubottu how much should i give the system is 100Gb enough?
[22:15] <mkanyicy> brontoeee, I have been using lame for years and I am solid with it, my question is ffmpeg, can it match lame or not?
[22:15] <guntbert> commodoor: ubottu is a bot :-)
[22:15] <commodoor> guntbert, lol didn't know haha
[22:15] <Mathuin> mkanyicy: I found a bug in lame when I was encoding extremely low quality audio, ffmpeg worked for me. :-)
[22:15] <speedrunnerG55> eh?!
[22:15] <speedrunnerG55> D:)
[22:16] <commodoor> guntbert, ah see it now
[22:16] <seth_g> i have asus mb M4A89GTD Pro, it has dual pci-e x16 which i am using for two nvidia cards -- one pci-e is geforce 8400 GS, the other is geforce 9400 gt. only one video card ever shows up... always as 1:0.0 from lspci, dmesg doesnt have any errors afaik.. the card in the primary (blue) slot is the one that works no matter which one it is. if i set primary ti internal then internal is the only one that works. i have tried as much as i can fi
[22:16] <seth_g> nd from online and whatnot but this isnt an X thing, no number is assigned to the second card. where do i go from here? id like to find a command similar to lspci that tells about errors..
[22:16] <speedrunnerG55> ;(
[22:16] <speedrunnerG55> );
[22:16] <mkanyicy> Mathuin, brontoeee I am concerned about quality, I need HIGH quality
[22:16] <commodoor> guntbert, but 100Gb is enough ? i have 500Gb so the rest is for home
[22:16] <Mathuin> mkanyicy: zoneminder is a nifty piece of software that collects, stores and analyzes webcam content and sends alerts as appropriate.  It uses apache2 and mysql.
[22:16] <guntbert> commodoor: lets say, use 20 GB for the system, the rest for /home  --- if you choose tu use LVM it will be more flexible
[22:17] <Mathuin> mkanyicy: were it me, I'd install ffmpeg and do some tests.
[22:17] <SeanInSeattle> Hey all.  Is there a sshfs client that works to reconnect, if the connection to the server is lost, without me having to issue the reconnect command?
[22:17] <evilgeenius> How can i disable compiz in ubuntu?
[22:17] <bynw> i'm having some difficulties with my wireless connection on my laptop. sometimes the network connection applet will just vanish from the panel with or without connecting. and many times my wireless just wont connect to any wireless access point. even though it is fully authorized to do so or at hot spots where it should just detect it and jump on.
[22:17] <Mathuin> In my particular case, I was trying to compress Morse code.  I got amazing results -- like 167x -- which was really keen.
[22:17] <commodoor> guntbert, i'm gonna use home encrypted because it's my laptop so if it's get stolen i know i will be safe
[22:17] <speedrunnerG55> hellpppp
[22:17] <brontoeee> mkanyicy, you just said that you need certain bitrate
[22:18] <speedrunnerG55> D:
[22:18] <ruper_> hi world !
[22:18] <brontoeee> mkanyicy, so what is it, high quality or bitrate?
[22:18] <Mathuin> commodoor: keep in mind that if you do any sort of remote backups of your laptop that you will have to be logged in in order for that partition tobe backed up.
[22:18] <guntbert> commodoor: 100GB for the system is probably too much, especially on a laptop
[22:18] <speedrunnerG55> D':
[22:18] <mkanyicy> Mathuin, I did with constant bitrate (CBR) @ 320kbps and they were the same
[22:18] <Mathuin> mkanyicy: Did you try VBR?  I think that's what you said was your target question.
[22:18] <speedrunnerG55> D;
[22:19] <mkanyicy> brontoeee, Mathuin no I didn't
[22:19] <speedrunnerG55> i stillcantget java
[22:19] <speedrunnerG55> help
[22:19] <mkanyicy> Mathuin, because I think its a bit tricky
[22:19] <speedrunnerG55> i still cant get java
[22:19] <commodoor> Mathuin, thnx, i'm not doing remote backup just local and U1
[22:19] <guntbert> commodoor: in that case take a look at http://www.linux-mag.com/cache/7568/1.html about encrypted home dir
[22:19] <mkanyicy> brontoeee, High quality
[22:19] <brontoeee> mkanyicy, well in any case i would actually avoid using ffmpeg, whats wrong with using lame directly?
[22:19] <commodoor> guntbert, thnx gonna read it
[22:20] <guntbert> commodoor: and make certain to write down that pass phrase and keep it in a secure/safe place
[22:21] <guntbert> no way to your data without it
[22:21] <mkanyicy> brontoeee, lame is slower than ffmpeg about 4 to 6 seconds
[22:22] <etheretic1> brontoeee: Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libmediainfo0 (>= 0.7.36)
[22:22] <trollboy> I'm currently experiencing high load averages (60-120) and can't figure out why... I'm looking at the server and ordering by cpu and mem is 0% cpu and .4% mem  any way to see what is going on?
[22:22] <mkanyicy> brontoeee, now if you are encoding, say 20 thousand mp3 files, it will be slower 6 times that which can be lots if minutes
[22:23] <commodoor> guntbert, thnx, im gonna reinstall ubuntu
[22:23] <commodoor> guntbert, with the passphrase i can mount the encrypted home, right?
[22:24] <guntbert> commodoor: have fun -- and *don't ever loose that passphrase*
[22:24] <commodoor> guntbert, thnx for the help
[22:24] <guntbert> commodoor: you're welcome :-)
[22:25] <brontoeee> mkanyicy, speed is the reverse of the quality, so i'am not sure what you want
[22:25] <blakkheim> "loose"?
[22:25] <ayush> is it not possible to open two windows of an application (say firefox) in the unity interface?
[22:25] <mkanyicy> brontoeee, yes but WITH EVERYTHING ELSE remaining constant
[22:25] <brontoeee> etheretic1, i think there are 2 debs that you need to install in correct order
[22:26] <mkanyicy> brontoeee, ffmpeg and lame may be using different algorithms
[22:26] <martin_> hey, can someone help me with setting default file permissions in a directory?
[22:26] <mkanyicy> brontoeee, by the way --vbr-new and --vbr-old of lame use two different algorithms
[22:26] <brontoeee> mkanyicy, files should be bit identical then, encode two and do an md5 on both, if it matches then use ffmpeg
[22:27] <brontoeee> mkanyicy, let me find you a link with recommended presets....
[22:27] <mkanyicy> brontoeee, I think you can encode the same file twice with lame alone and calculate MD5 checksum it would be different, I bet
[22:27] <starn> hello.
[22:27] <etheretic1> brontoeee: oh right, got it.
[22:28] <seth_g> referring to my earlier question, only one video card is recognized at a time whether I use the installed 10.04 32 bit or a maverick 64 live usb
[22:28] <mkanyicy> brontoeee, no I do not need the presets, I have wrote an mp3 converter script myself, so I need this to check if ever I should improve its speed or not
[22:28] <martin_> hello??
[22:28] <guntbert> blakkheim: referring to me?
[22:28] <starn> Can anyone suggest a browser faster than Firefox and Chrome. i'm using google voice for text messaging and would prefer something that uses lil less than 60-150mb memory..
[22:29] <brontoeee> mkanyicy, no, two encodes should be identical
[22:29] <mkanyicy> starn, w3m?
[22:29] <seth_g> lspci lists the 'numbers' for each hardware device. if a 'number' (like 1:0.0) is for some reason failing, where is that error logged?
[22:29] <vdubhack> how does one go about removing the realtek driver that gets installed by default. I dont want to blacklist but full remove it properly so I can try other version with patches since in 64 bit the driver causes a memory leak
[22:29] <starn> mkanyicy w3m?? whats that?
[22:30] <Draqul> starn: Chromium is about as fast as it gets, imo.
[22:30] <tensorpudding> starn: it's a text-mode web browser
[22:30] <mkanyicy> terminal based web browser
[22:30] <Draqul> starn: Graphical, I mean.
[22:30] <martin_> starn: i've found chrome pretty fast, i heard saphari is pretty quick too. honestly though, i dont have much experience with saphari
[22:30] <starn> draqul so far i agree but it still uses 100+ memory.
[22:30] <nibbier> clicking on the battery/charger applet and preferences lets me define how to behave on AC power, but not on battery anymore. how to acces these settings?
[22:30] <martin_> safari*
[22:30] <mkanyicy> starn, Im with Draqul as well on the GUI, Chromium
[22:30] <bynw> i'm having some difficulties with my wireless connection on my laptop. sometimes the network connection applet will just vanish from the panel with or without connecting. and many times my wireless just wont connect to any wireless access point. even though it is fully authorized to do so or at hot spots where it should just detect it and jump on.
[22:31] <Draqul> starn: I know. = / If you're looking for something terminal based, then links is pretty swift. Linx is another good option
[22:31] <martin_> can anybody help me with my permissions problem?
[22:31] <starn> i'll check out w3m probably gonna take hours to figure out how to use it
[22:31] <decanius> Hey
[22:32] <starn> thanks guys. maybe they will work with google voice so i may send text messages with out hogging half my systems memory [not really half but feels like it sometimes when a game like wow can use less]
[22:32] <martin_> I need to set a directory's default permissions for new files to be 775, but it wont let me! :(
[22:32] <Draqul> starn: I do not think links, or linx, will work with Google Voice.
[22:32] <starn> worth a shot.
[22:32] <Draqul> martin_: sudo chmod 775 <dir>
[22:33] <martin_> Draqul, it needs to be for new files, not existing ones
[22:33] <slidinghorn> starn,  Draqul you can use the mobile version of the site google.com/voice/m/
[22:33] <martin_> it's so that if someone creates a file, it will already have the permissions 775
[22:33] <Draqul> martin_: my bad
[22:33] <starn> hmm did not think to use mobile version even though i use it for my DSi all the time! great idea!
[22:33] <sirscott> /wc/wc
[22:33] <seth_g> maybe my question needs to be broken up into the 100 questions i asked myself to get to that conclusion...
[22:34] <slidinghorn> starn, thanks :)  I have one every once in a great while ;-)
[22:34] <starn> i still wanna try this text base broswer stuff ^.^ sounds fun to play with,,
[22:34] <seth_g> so when i run lspci, what are the numbers called (like 1:0.0). is that the irq??
[22:35] <seth_g> BusID?
[22:35] <grid_> i use a samba server, where can you change the default profile path to save roaming profiles from a windowsxp client, the default should be /home/<username>/profile, i already search a day for this ;)
[22:36] <guntbert> seth_g: did you already read man lspci ? (I didn't recently)
[22:36] <etheretic1> brontoeee: the progress bar is just running back and forth installing libmediainfo.
[22:36] <decanius> I just installed some ati-drivers for my notebook after I installed a fresh version of lubuntu, then I reinstalled my  fglrx and now it just locks at my bootscreen and I can't change the runlevel or anything.. Does anyone have any good tips t how to solve this?
[22:37] <starn> ok where and or how do i find or use any  of these text based browsers such as w3m swift or linx? w/e they was..
[22:37] <brontoeee> etheretic1, lucid or? (works fine here with lucid)
[22:37] <guntbert> !info w3m | starn
[22:37] <etheretic1> brontoeee: meercat 10.10
[22:37] <mkanyicy> brontoeee, ok I have made few test cases, the MD5 sum stays the same for identical settings but changes if you change the vbr algorithm, since lame has at least 2 algorithms with its fastest being slower than ffmpeg, i think ffmpeg is using something else
[22:38] <guntbert> starn: w3m is already installed, you invoke it with w3m <url>
[22:38] <tchad_> join #qt-labs
[22:38] <seth_g> guntbert, i have. ive tried the Q options and -vv, etc but still only one card.
[22:38] <guntbert> starn: and you quit it later with Q
[22:38] <mkanyicy> brontoeee, but anyway its fine, I will do my ground work on google and experiment a bit as time goes on, thanks for the help, now  I will take the md5sum into account!
[22:39] <martin_> can i write a script or something so that new files in a directory have a certain permission set?
[22:39] <martin_> (like 775)
[22:39] <VCoolio> starn: here are some more to check; most are in the repos http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Lightweight_Applications#Browsers
[22:39] <guntbert> seth_g: I must admit that I cannot decode them myself
[22:39] <MatBoy> man, 10.10 is a pain with a intel 5100 agn card
[22:39] <seth_g> assuming ubuntu can 'see' both cards, is there an error log when an irq cannot be assigned?
[22:40] <seth_g> irq meaning BusID i guess
[22:40] <rammyIRC> trying to find a way to connect to Remote Web Workplace on a Windows SBS 2003 server. RWW only works in IE.
[22:40] <seth_g> dmesg has no errors about anything vga related
[22:40] <decanius> I just installed some ati-drivers for my notebook after I installed a fresh version of lubuntu, then I reinstalled my  fglrx and now it just locks at my bootscreen and I can't change the runlevel or anything.. Does anyone have any good tips t how to solve this?
[22:40] <kpoman> I am getting a lot of forbidden on a update ! please someone help !!!! http://pastebin.com/78BA3drU
[22:41] <kpoman> or how do I get rid of it ?
[22:41] <brontoeee> mkanyicy, yes actually, you need to extract only the audio part and do md5 on that (when using different encoders)
[22:41] <starn> thanks guys this is amazing!! i know for sure mobile site of google voice works on this w3m. this is amazing!
[22:41] <brontoeee> mkanyicy, my mistake here
[22:41] <MatBoy> what is the issue with a intel 5100 agn card ? It sees networks but cannot connect right because of the WPA key or whatever
[22:42] <maco> MatBoy: wpa key shouldnt be related to hardware. thats the password you need to connect to that network. the owner has setup a password to encrypt the traffic
[22:42] <seth_g> is it possible that a dual pci-e nvidia is not available without crossfire?
[22:43] <Gnea> kpoman: firewall?
[22:43] <MatBoy> maco: yes, but network-manager does not see networks with the card and wicd has password problems
[22:43] <soreau> What is starting gnome-screensaver? I do not see it in alacarte (sys>prefs>startup applications). What else starts user programs?
[22:44] <etheretic1> brontoeee: it's hanging on dpkg.
[22:45] <trism> soreau: /etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-screensaver.desktop
[22:45] <blocky> is it possible to make my gnome panel task switcher have two rows of tasks?
[22:45] <soreau> trism: Why.
[22:45] <rammyIRC> how to use  Remote Web Workplace from ubuntu?
[22:45] <rammyIRC> any pointers??
[22:46] <soreau> Sorry, s/alacarte/gnome-session-properties
[22:46] <soreau> Why start starting things in /etc/xdg/autostart/ instead of making them easily configurable by gnome-session-properties as it has been in the past?
[22:46] <trism> soreau: http://standards.freedesktop.org/autostart-spec/autostart-spec-latest.html, it also looks in ~/.config/autostart (that's where startup applications saves them)
[22:46] <pionar> Good afternoon everyone!
[22:47] <mkanyicy> hi pionar
[22:47] <trism> soreau: and you can copy anything to ~/.config/autostart and it will override the .desktop file in /etc/xdg/autostart
[22:47] <marciosr10> test
[22:47] <rammyIRC> anybody??
[22:48] <soreau> trism: The spec says ubuntu should start making things less easily configurable by removing it from gnome-session-properties?
[22:48] <rammyIRC> do anybody knew the answer please let me know on Remote Web Workplace.
[22:48] <Pici> !patience | rammyIRC
[22:48] <rammyIRC> oh ok
[22:48] <rammyIRC> sorry
[22:48] <seth_g> so ubuntu cant handle two video cards?
[22:49] <speedrunnerG55> i still cant get java
[22:49] <trism> soreau: they are not removed, they are default, system-wide settings, and as I said you can copy the .desktop file you want to override to ~/.config/autostart and gnome-session-properties will let you edit it
[22:49] <wad> speedrunnerG55, you can download it directly from java.com, if you like.
 soreau: and you can copy anything to ~/.config/autostart and it will override the .desktop file in /etc/xdg/autostart <-- this doesn't make two bits of sense to me. What would make sense is having xscreensaver installed would automagically replace gnome-screensaver for startup and configuration
[22:50] <trism> soreau: I didn't write the system, so I don't know why you're telling me
[22:50] <soreau> Instead I not only get two entries for 'Screensaver' in the menu, but I don't see a way to change it via GUI
[22:50] <speedrunnerG55> wich one?
[22:50] <soreau> trism: You responded, so you get latched.
[22:51] <speedrunnerG55> which donload?
[22:51] <geitenneuker> good morning
[22:51] <seth_g> alright then, since it seems ubuntu cant use more than one video card at a time, is there a video card available with 4 heads?
[22:52] <zanus> lspci shows I have 2 displays, aticonfig shows I have 2 displays, yet Catalyst Control Center only shows 1 of my two ATI cards.
[22:52] <soreau> zanus: Who cares?
[22:52] <soreau> Canonical really needs to get their act together instead of piling on more crap no one wants or needs
[22:52] <zanus> question being, why can I not detect my second display when it's obviously showing up
[22:53] <seth_g> soreau, umm zanus cares. i kind of care too
[22:53] <speedrunnerG55> ???
[22:53] <seth_g> zanus, try sudo X -configure - is there only one entry for video cards in lspci?
[22:54] <camer0n_> hi guys, just wondering if it is possible to do a complete copy of an OS, including partitions, etc, installed on a USB stick, to a iso file?
[22:54] <zanus> I tried -configure.. and no.. there are two entries for VGA in lspci
[22:54] <camer0n_> i figure dd or something might work?
[22:54] <kjkjava> I'm having trouble getting my JDBC driver to work in Ubuntu.  I used -cp to add the correct jar(s) to the classpath.  I'm just using javac and java... no IDE.  Ideas?
[22:54] <seth_g> zanus, you'll need to be sure the second display uses the second device
[22:55] <zanus> Here's my lspci http://pastebin.com/5eJA1wPm and here's the ATI config http://pastebin.com/DYXuSQtP
[22:56] <zanus> seth_g, how do I make sure of that?
[22:56] <seth_g> zanus, its in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[22:56] <geitenneuker> good morning
[22:56] <seth_g> zanus pstebin your xorg
[22:56] <zanus> seth_g, unfortunately, in meerkat.. that file doesn't exist
[22:57] <tgies> How would I get gnome-keyring to store my ssh private key passphrase forever? Right now it prompts to unlock the key once per session.
[22:57] <zanus> or at least that's what I've experienced
[22:57] <Draqul> zanus: xorg.conf has become optional
[22:58] <wad> tgies, what do you mean, "once per session"?
[22:58] <wad> tgies, you mean after a reboot?
[22:58] <zanus> cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf returns an error.. Dragul, but even after I did a Xorg -configure... I still can't find it
[22:58] <geitenneuker> i got a problem
[22:58] <geitenneuker> any dutch person here?
[22:58] <Draqul> !ask | geitenneuker
[22:58] <zanus> no wait..
[22:58] <Draqul> geitenneuker: Deutsch?
 tgies, what do you mean, "once per session"?
 tgies, you mean after a reboot?
[22:58] <tgies> actually, if i log out and log back in
[22:58] <geitenneuker> dutch! no german
[22:58] <zanus> ok xorg.conf miraculously appeared!!
[22:59] <zanus> http://pastebin.com/gaN9R3xX
[22:59] <tgies> but obviously a reboot has the same effect
[22:59] <Draqul> !du | geitenneuker
[22:59] <tgies> actually maybe it IS just after a reboot
[22:59] <tgies> I'm not 100% sure
[22:59] <tgies> i should check
[22:59] <Draqul> !dutch | geitenneuker
[22:59] <wad> tgies: It's normal to enter your key after a reboot. I just use ssh-add.
[23:00] <tgies> wad: yes, ssh-add is automatically being fired by gnome-keyring
[23:00] <wad> Ah, makes sense.
[23:00] <tgies> and i'm being prompted by ssh-askpass to unlock it the first time i use it per session
[23:00] <tgies> but I actually would like to store some of the passphrases in the keyring so i *never* have to type them
[23:01] <zanus> ok.. so I have xorg.conf access now.. Now I just have to figure out how to add my second card in there..
[23:01] <seth_g> zanus, im pretty sure you need to add the second device there
[23:01] <seth_g> yeah..
[23:01] <zanus> is there a good tutorial out there anywhere
[23:01] <wad> tgies, same here. If you don't want to be prompted for the password, use a key that's not passphrase protected, I suppose.
[23:01] <tgies> hmm
[23:01] <seth_g> zanus, are those pci-e? this is related to my issue
[23:01] <tgies> it used to work in 8.x
[23:01] <tgies> weird
[23:01] <zanus> the one that's not in there is pci-e yes
[23:01] <seth_g> zanus, i see that card for sale as pci-e
[23:02] <seth_g> zanus, only one is? other is straight pci?
[23:02] <tiox> Quickie: What do I wanna get if I want to find the URL of a radio station using a flash widget which does not provide the URL I can use in other media players?
[23:02] <wad> tgies, that is strange. I haven't noticed anything different.
[23:02] <zanus> the other is onboard
[23:02] <wad> tiox, netstat?
[23:02] <tiox> Netstat. I'll take a look at it.
[23:02] <tiox> For 10.10 right?
[23:02] <seth_g> wow... i can never get onboard to show up if there is another card in...
[23:03] <etheretic1> brontoeee: can't cut/paste from gui version, installing cli.
[23:03] <seth_g> zanus, your mb only has one pci-e slot?
[23:03] <zanus> umm.. I believe so
[23:03] <zanus> I'd have to re check
[23:04] <seth_g> zanus, the point you are at would be considered success for me
[23:04] <tgies> wad: There used to be an "automatically unlock" checkbox in the askpass dialog
[23:04] <tgies> which would cause it to save the passphrase to the keyring and never ask for it again
[23:04] <zanus> :P
[23:04] <tgies> That's gone now
[23:04] <wad> tgies: Ah!
[23:05] <zanus> so how do I find the BusID of my other card... that seems to be the only thing different regarding a simple copy/paste solution
[23:05] <seth_g> zanus its in lspci
[23:05] <seth_g> one is 1:05.0 other is 2:00.0
[23:06] <seth_g> i suspect 2 is the addon
[23:06] <zanus> yeah
[23:06] <qorep> is there some checkinstall alternative that can handle files with spaces in them?
[23:06] <zanus> it's weird that it calls the onboard PCI
[23:07] <zanus> is there a different syntax for PCI-e in xorg.conf?
[23:07] <zanus> or can I just put "PCI:2:0:0"
[23:08] <seth_g> zanus same as the other device part of xorg.conf
[23:08] <zanus> alright thx seth_g
[23:09] <camer0n_> hi, can some one help me? I am trying to clone a drive, but having trouble with dd... is there a better way?
[23:09] <altin> hi can someone help me ?
[23:10] <altin> i have camera problems truying to fifure out for 2h :/
[23:10] <delinquentme> damn! ubuntu is kind of plagued when it comes to video codecs ... has anyone else noticed this? first i cant watch DVDs .. now my .wmv playback is messed up ... and then all the flash playback stuff in browser ... Eh... are there plans to fix this??
[23:10] <altin> figur*
[23:10] <Cyber_Akuma> Ummm, thats because Ubuntu isn't windows, its not really something broken to "fix"
[23:10] <Cyber_Akuma> You can download "dirty" codecs to play those formats though
[23:11] <gravitus> I don't have that problem with ubuntu. I sprinkle Bill Gates dandruff into the disk drive
[23:11] <delinquentme> Cyber_Akuma, how do i do this
[23:11] <Quintin> delinquentme: apt-get install vlc mplayer ... ?
[23:12] <delinquentme> Quintin, i have VLC installed.. however its not playing .wmv files
[23:12] <Cyber_Akuma> thats odd
[23:12] <delinquentme> Cyber_Akuma, i DID try and install DVD playback ( additional video wonkyness)
[23:13] <Quintin> delinquentme: try different wmvs?
[23:13] <Cyber_Akuma> the default media player would have asked you to install the codec pack when you tried to play an unsupported file
[23:13]  * twinkie_addict is baffled aptitude wasnt installed by default in 10.10 , i had to install my self . i thought it was what we were suposed to use in cli to install stuff
[23:14] <delinquentme> the sound works ... on all the vids ... but not the video
[23:14] <blakkheim> twinkie_addict: ubuntu is more of a distro for noobs now, i think they don't care as much about the advanced users - but you can install it of course
[23:14] <Cyber_Akuma> BTw, is it possible to inswtall Ubuntu and tell it to install grub to it's own parttion rather than to the MBR?
[23:14] <Quintin> delinquentme: have you tried many different video files?
[23:14] <delinquentme> Quintin, i just tried 4 .. all the same results
[23:15] <twinkie_addict> yeh i installed it :)
[23:15] <Bliepo> Hello everyone, I have a script which I would like to start on boot with root rights, because the script needs to be able to shutdown the laptop. Furthermore, using shutdown now does not shutdown the laptop, but instead opens some sort of recovery menu.

[23:18] <drunken> dmesg throws up tons of these: hda-intel: spurious response 0x0:0x0, last cmd=0xc35000
[23:18] <zanus> well seth_g, adding another device section didn't do anything.  I'm guessing I have restart gdm?
[23:18] <drunken> kern.log throws up tons of these:  hda_codec: invalid dep_range_val 0:7fff
[23:18]  * twinkie_addict plans on buying new box next month
[23:18] <drunken> and the startup sounds will play. but when i login. sound goes away
[23:18] <seth_g> well yeah you have to restartx
[23:18] <seth_g> logout and login

[23:19] <grid_> if i do mv /home/username /media/data/users/username, and now i do in /home sudo ln -s /media/data/users/username test, how could i get the same permissions to /home/username? because /home/username will not get data from some programs anymore since used ln
[23:19] <mentoc> Is there a way to get a list of packages that 'apt-get autoremove ' has removed?
[23:20] <drunken> anyone have any ideas?
[23:20] <Bliepo> grid_, if i am correct, you cannot make a symoblic link to a driectory
[23:20] <aeon-ltd> drunken: check alsamixer
[23:21] <drunken> aeon-ltd: the sound is not muted via alsa mixer
[23:21] <Pici> Bliepo: sure you can.  You can't make a hardlink to a directory.
[23:21] <grid_> Bliepo: you can
[23:21] <aeon-ltd> drunken: whats your source of sound to test?
[23:21] <drunken> and with the log file viewer open. everytime i attempt to play a sound a hundred or so of those errors come up
[23:21] <Bliepo> Pici, ah, I always mix the two up :')
[23:21] <drunken> aeon-ltd: As in music? system sounds?
[23:21] <aeon-ltd> drunken: can you paste bin the errors?
[23:21] <drunken> yea. i'll put them on pastebin
[23:21] <aeon-ltd> drunken: yeah test multiple sources
[23:22] <grid_> Pici: perhaps you can help me with the question above?
[23:23] <Pici> grid_: change the permissions on /home/username to be owned by username:username
[23:23] <plitter> hello, i am trying to get a mic on asus 1005px to work, anyone have an idea?
[23:23] <grid_> Pici: it would be actually sudo ln -s /media/data/users/username username, i made a typo
[23:23] <drunken> lovely. pastebin is broke
[23:23] <Pici> grid_: I figured
[23:23] <zanus> ugh seth_g, what am I doing wrong http://pastebin.com/aV3DDVkw
[23:23] <mkanyicy> bye everyone
[23:24] <Cyber_Akuma> Is there a way to install ubuntu with grub/the bootloader completely installed on the partition I installed Ubuntu on and not installed on the MBR at all so I can chainload it?
[23:24] <grid_> Pici: so i have to do before i move the use ls -lah to see the permissions, and then i need to set them the same
[23:24] <Sean93> why does this torrent freeze and program i use to download it?? and how do i fix it?
[23:24] <Pici> grid_: You shouldn't need to check it, as it should be owned by user 'username' and group 'username'
[23:25] <zanus> it still shows only only screen in Catalyst Control Panel
[23:25] <zanus> and only one card
[23:25] <zanus> while lspci and aticonfig -lsa say different

[23:29] <Dream_th>  iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 12000 -j DNAT --to-destination ipaddress:12000
[23:29] <ehcah> Does anyone know how to remove the notification applet that remains in the top left hand corner of my screen after the top panel has been deleted? Icons are things like xChat, Battery/Power, Connections, Open Office etc..
[23:29] <Dream_th>  iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE
[23:29] <Dream_th> when excecuting the 2nd commmand i get: iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.
[23:29] <Pici> TheSelby: I'm not much help with nvidia issues, sorry.
[23:30] <TheSelby> iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s xx.xx.xx.xx/xx -o ethx -j MASQUERADE
[23:30] <Dream_th> which xx.xx.xx.xx/xx should be the local address right?

[23:30] <Mathuin> SeanInSeattle: I would use tar instead.  "cd sourcedir && tar cf - . | (cd destdir && tar xvf -)"
[23:30] <anon33_> I'm in quite a pickle and could really use some help.
[23:31] <zealiod> It generally means the gateway is not reachable with your current routes
[23:31] <zealiod> Im not sure how to fix - any ideas?
[23:31] <seth_g> zanus, im sure the autoconfigure will work at this point
[23:32] <anon33_> I've set Ubuntu to autologin. Earlier today I set up awesome wm and now when I boot into ubuntu, I get a black screen that wont display anything.
[23:32] <seth_g> zanus, i thought the catalyst drivers were available for ubuntu
[23:32] <drunken> any clues aeon-ltd ?
[23:32] <grid_> Pici: it has the same permissions, but programs don't respond to the same folder anymore, like i use for this folder a location for a roaming profile from winxp client that is connection to my samba pdc
[23:32] <zanus> I have the catalyst drivers already
[23:32] <anon33_> The best I can do is close my laptop, switch user, and try switching the desktop environment but that doesn't solve anything.
[23:32] <Sean93> why does this torrent freeze and program i use to download it?? and how do i fix it?
[23:32] <anon33_> Any help would be really appreciated.
[23:32] <zanus> it's just that in the Control Center, under Display Devices..
[23:33] <zanus> only one shows us
[23:33] <grid_> Pici: would you know how this could be, i'm already a day busy with this problem
[23:33] <seth_g> was catalyst installed?
[23:33] <zanus> I'm not sure what you're asking...  was is it installed when before I decided to connect another monitor? No

[23:37] <zanus> yeah.. I have the catalyst application
[23:37] <zanus> I can do all that stuff
[23:37] <seth_g> unfortunate im using nvidia so i cant try it
[23:37] <zanus> but only with one screen..
[23:37] <zanus> and it only detects one video card
[23:38] <anon33_> Grr...could really use some help here.
[23:39] <goltoof> zanus,  if you asked me, return the ati card and get nVidia while you still can.  nVidia has way more linux support
[23:39] <sir_tyrion> Hey, is the only difference between ubuntu and xubuntu the desktop environment?
[23:39] <sir_tyrion> if I install both sessions, is it like having both installed on my comp?

[23:42] <anon33_> goltoof: I can't even boot into the command line. Seriously need some assistance...
[23:42] <RyanP>  Anyone want to make 5 dollars per post, on my technology blog?

[23:43] <anon33_> Is it possible to boot into the login screen if autologin is set?
[23:43] <Dream_th> TheSelby: let me try
[23:44] <anon33_> goltoof: its a black screen asking me for my password. Im able to hibernate my laptop and switch users, but im the only defined user

[23:45] <aeon-ltd> drunken: lol any way back on topic
[23:45] <drunken> :)
[23:45] <anon33_> goltoof: all I need to do is change the session environment before autologin but im unable to do that
[23:46] <drunken> current kernel version is 2.6.31-14. everything was peachy until i upgraded to -22.
[23:46] <goltoof> anon33_, you might try reinstalling gnome   sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[23:46] <drunken> the issues began happening so i uninstalled the -22 version via synaptic and reverted back to the -14
[23:46] <drunken> and the issues never left ^_^

[23:49] <geitenneuker> eek?
[23:49] <Bliepo> !rules

[23:50] <Bliepo> neitengeuker, good :)
